1
00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:03,279
Speaker 1: I'll start to what you want to present some off

2
00:00:03,319 --> 00:00:06,360
the bench with Jacob Hester and T. Bob Abert.

3
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:08,679
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

4
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:11,759
Speaker 1: Off the bench with Jacob Hester and C. Bob aber

5
00:00:12,439 --> 00:00:14,800
I got to come off the pitch. Now, here's Jacob

6
00:00:14,839 --> 00:00:17,199
Hester and T. Bob Abar.

7
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 3: And Alandra viare Aale hanging out with you this morning

8
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:24,920
here on No TB.

9
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 2: I got another Jade Daniels stat for you.

10
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 3: So of course Commanders, even though they had failed early

11
00:00:35,439 --> 00:00:38,039
on fourth down, they go for it at the end

12
00:00:38,079 --> 00:00:41,560
of the game, fourth and goal down seventeen thirteen and

13
00:00:41,719 --> 00:00:44,200
Jade Daniels finds Terry McLaurin for the touchdown, gives him

14
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,679
a twenty to seventeen lead. But again, you want to

15
00:00:46,679 --> 00:00:49,399
talk about a player unlocking everybody around them, what a

16
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,960
quarterback can do in terms of shifting everything for every one.

17
00:00:53,439 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 2: This was McLaren. Excuse me, McLaren. This is McLaury. Sometimes

18
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:57,359
he runs like one.

19
00:00:57,679 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 3: This is mclaurin's eleventh red zone touchdown catch this season.

20
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:06,239
Jay eleven in one year in the red zone. He

21
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:10,560
had eleven in his first five years combined. So the

22
00:01:10,599 --> 00:01:13,640
red zone effect of Jayden Daniels and really that's where

23
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,439
the great quarterbacks are at their best. And with his

24
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,799
incredible skill set to extend plays, keep his eyes downfield,

25
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,719
his ability to put the ball into insane windows, he

26
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,959
seems particularly well suited in that portion of the field.

27
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 2: But yeah, you don't think Terry.

28
00:01:27,879 --> 00:01:31,519
Speaker 3: Mclaurin's happy to have that guy eleven red zone touchdowns

29
00:01:31,519 --> 00:01:34,439
this season alone, where he had eleven in the previous

30
00:01:34,519 --> 00:01:36,959
half decade of being a professional.

31
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 2: Football Yeah, and we talked about this. I think it was,

32
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,319
you know last week two weeks ago that you were

33
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:47,000
going from Sam Howe got Jayden Daniels. Yeah, right, and

34
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,760
then you get Cliff Kingsbury as you're offensive coordinator. Now,

35
00:01:49,799 --> 00:01:52,200
Cliff leaves a lot to be desired as far as

36
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,640
a head coach, but as a play caller and a

37
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,239
play designer, he is one of the best out there.

38
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,439
That's why so many Bears fans were mad when you

39
00:02:00,439 --> 00:02:03,200
know they didn't pair him back with Caleb Williams. Yeah. True.

40
00:02:03,439 --> 00:02:06,959
So you know Terry's sitting there thinking, man, I really

41
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:11,680
went from maybe the worst situation in the National Football

42
00:02:11,759 --> 00:02:14,560
League to one of the top five situations in the

43
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,560
National Football League. Yeah, now you get Now you feel

44
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:17,840
like you have a guy that you could partner with

45
00:02:17,879 --> 00:02:21,199
for years, and you have a guy that doesn't force

46
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,240
the football to you, but always looks for you. Yeah,

47
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,400
and there's a big difference between forcing and making sure

48
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,000
that you find him first and then look if he's covered,

49
00:02:30,319 --> 00:02:33,840
then you go to your next progression. But they were

50
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,680
forcing the football to him in years past with some

51
00:02:36,759 --> 00:02:37,719
bad quarterbacks.

52
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, I can't ember. If you're a bad quarterback,

53
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,120
what are you gonna do? You're gonna get.

54
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,159
Speaker 2: Exactly, I get, so I get why they did it.

55
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,840
But for him, just as an individual, I mean, he's

56
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,039
got to feel like he's just in.

57
00:02:52,159 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 3: Utopia right oh with that right now, like a man

58
00:02:55,439 --> 00:02:58,280
who wandered the desert for forty years and all of

59
00:02:58,319 --> 00:03:01,639
a sudden is just overflowing with milk and honey. He

60
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,000
has truly crossed over into the Promised Land.

61
00:03:04,039 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 2: Because the weapons are the same, I mean, for the

62
00:03:06,599 --> 00:03:10,240
most part offensively, like you add an Austin Eckler and

63
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,759
I love k but X just like a secondary piece.

64
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,439
He's been injured, he's been something's big last night, you know,

65
00:03:16,879 --> 00:03:19,240
Zach Ertz at the very end of his career, and

66
00:03:19,319 --> 00:03:21,199
Zach's played well but it's not like you went and

67
00:03:21,199 --> 00:03:23,280
spend a ton of money or a ton of resources.

68
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,240
I mean you got you got cast offs from other teams,

69
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,599
from you know, the Cowboys and from the Falcons and

70
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,759
all these other guys that their team didn't want them,

71
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,120
and that's who you have outside of Terry. So it's

72
00:03:35,159 --> 00:03:37,520
not like you've made these wholesale changes. So I say

73
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,439
that to say they're only going to continue to get better,

74
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,120
Like they'll go draft receiver maybe in the second round.

75
00:03:43,199 --> 00:03:44,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, now they know that because once you know you

76
00:03:44,719 --> 00:03:46,280
have a quarterback, then you go all day.

77
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,319
Speaker 2: And when you have him on his rookie deal, we

78
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,159
all know that you're gonna build around him, you're gonna

79
00:03:50,159 --> 00:03:54,879
spend money. So this might be the worst version of it.

80
00:03:54,879 --> 00:03:59,039
Speaker 3: That's true, very true, Uh, tay Te final thought here

81
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,360
any any how are you feeling about Baker's fumble because

82
00:04:02,719 --> 00:04:07,319
he has been very upfront, Uh, in a in a

83
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,639
performance to which I believe Derek Carr could take notes from, Baker,

84
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:16,079
Mayfield has assumed all blame one thousand percent, saying even

85
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,000
on the sideline, you saw him telling Jayleen McMillan, that's

86
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:20,639
on me, and he said it.

87
00:04:20,879 --> 00:04:22,759
Speaker 2: He did he did. He did, but it was a

88
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:26,000
pained it was a pained, my bad. You could see

89
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,560
it in his in his in his in his DNA.

90
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 3: And then after the game as well, he took me

91
00:04:30,399 --> 00:04:33,920
how it's going to stick with him forever. But yeah, Baker,

92
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,079
who I mean so much good? A cheap quarterback, only

93
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,480
thirty million dollars, top five in the NFL, and yet

94
00:04:41,639 --> 00:04:44,680
it's one mistake after a big goal line stand that

95
00:04:44,759 --> 00:04:46,040
ends up being the difference in the game.

96
00:04:46,199 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 2: No, I mean you saw it right when he fumbled.

97
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,079
Speaker 4: I mean he like pounded the ground like it was

98
00:04:50,079 --> 00:04:53,120
obviously on him. I guess he just snapped it too

99
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,279
late on the mcmillis thing, I can think. And then

100
00:04:57,399 --> 00:04:59,759
later in the game, I would think this one's more

101
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,800
on ram Barton then everybody else, because like nobody moved.

102
00:05:03,319 --> 00:05:04,879
It was when they had to settle for the field goal,

103
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,680
when they were trying to score to retake the lead,

104
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,399
Barton snapped it. Nobody else moved and Baker was like,

105
00:05:10,399 --> 00:05:12,319
oh crap, gave it to Bucky Irvin. And then that's

106
00:05:12,319 --> 00:05:14,600
when they lost yards on the third down when they

107
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,360
had this some snaper change.

108
00:05:16,399 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 2: But we were talking about durn't break like Commander's man.

109
00:05:19,199 --> 00:05:20,879
Speaker 4: I mean, they just hold on to the football, like

110
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,040
when you're playing a team that's top five and passing

111
00:05:23,079 --> 00:05:25,319
and rushing, keep them off the field. I mean, what

112
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,240
was it sixty nine to forty three total plays? I

113
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,439
mean Baker was here, was good, but I think he

114
00:05:31,519 --> 00:05:34,759
only threw nineteen passes, yeah, thirty five.

115
00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 2: I mean they were perfect.

116
00:05:36,319 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 4: Their first touchdown drive was seventeen plays.

117
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:42,680
Speaker 3: One mistake. I mean those are the margins. Man, what'd

118
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:43,399
you give to the playoffs?

119
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 2: And you know what, you know, we're talking a lot

120
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,000
of things about the Commander's offense and Jayden and Michildna

121
00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:49,680
we were batting his show, So it makes sense. But

122
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,759
celebrator King just to continue to talk about the Commanders

123
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,639
as a team. Just think about also what adding Bobby

124
00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,079
Wagner on the other side is done. Like you want

125
00:05:59,079 --> 00:06:00,879
to talk about a lead, if you want to talk

126
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,240
about just high football IQ, And when that guy talks,

127
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,959
everybody listens, including the offensive players. And look, I've seen

128
00:06:08,959 --> 00:06:11,560
guys like this in the NFL, Like when when they're talking,

129
00:06:11,759 --> 00:06:14,399
there's not many that can have it that aren't the quarterback.

130
00:06:14,439 --> 00:06:17,120
There's just not I've only been around a couple. He's

131
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:20,360
certainly one of them. So when he says something, everybody

132
00:06:20,439 --> 00:06:25,160
listens and is Bobby Wagner the player he was seven

133
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,120
years ago? Six years ago, probably not. He's still good.

134
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,560
But it's really the leadership in the football IQ is

135
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,879
why you sign up Bobby Wagner to that deal, put

136
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,480
him right in the middle of your defense, and that

137
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,720
is paid off for them because he was one of

138
00:06:38,759 --> 00:06:42,399
the additions we talked about who they didn't add on offense.

139
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,160
Where they added really was defense, and they brought in

140
00:06:45,199 --> 00:06:48,319
different guys at every single level, and that's certainly been

141
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,120
a part of their story. Johnathi even says, did y'all

142
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:54,920
see the Commanders kicker Zane Gonzalez fighting with his hair

143
00:06:54,959 --> 00:06:56,519
before the game? Win? He kicked out? He was fighting

144
00:06:56,519 --> 00:06:57,639
with some demons, not his hair.

145
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 3: So apparently Zane Gonzalez is extremely OCD, which that was

146
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:08,680
obviously a tick, right, you could tell the the the

147
00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:12,560
the having to feel like it was just perfect as

148
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,439
he put his heelmet on. Thank god he made it

149
00:07:14,839 --> 00:07:17,120
because who knows what that could do to your OCD

150
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:18,920
if you would have missed that kick. But yeah, it

151
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,519
was freaking a lot of Commanders fans out they should

152
00:07:21,519 --> 00:07:23,199
have watching him, watching.

153
00:07:22,959 --> 00:07:24,319
Speaker 2: Him fidget with his hair like that.

154
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,319
Speaker 3: It does make a little more sense though, if he's

155
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,560
just extremely OCD then it because if that's like it's

156
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,480
like normal behavior. Yeah it is, it is what it is.

157
00:07:31,519 --> 00:07:33,000
But yeah, it was, it was. It was freaking him

158
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,199
out for sure. Here it is, I mean, continuously trying

159
00:07:35,199 --> 00:07:36,759
to just find that find that.

160
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,319
Speaker 2: I think. I'm happy for him that he made it. Yeah,

161
00:07:40,399 --> 00:07:43,480
I mean that's like they got one job. We always

162
00:07:43,519 --> 00:07:45,720
say it and they do. And you know, we'd like

163
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,319
to hate on kickers, even in the locker room, but

164
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,040
you never want him to miss a kick like that. Man,

165
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:53,120
I just keep watching. He just kept trying to get

166
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:53,680
that right.

167
00:07:53,519 --> 00:07:56,639
Speaker 3: Swoop and he's got short hair. It's not even really

168
00:07:56,639 --> 00:07:59,680
doing He just he had to feel it. He had

169
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,720
to hit feel when it was right. Somebody said, hey,

170
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,160
we all don't even talked about Lattimore getting birdies, Like

171
00:08:06,199 --> 00:08:07,399
I tuned in I want to see war and he

172
00:08:07,439 --> 00:08:08,000
got toasted.

173
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:08,319
Speaker 2: He did.

174
00:08:08,399 --> 00:08:10,279
Speaker 3: You know, we've been very calmy heavy, but yeah, Mike

175
00:08:10,319 --> 00:08:14,360
Evans in the heavyweight battle that is Marshawn Lattimore, Mike

176
00:08:14,399 --> 00:08:17,079
Evans won that. Lattimore has won the majority of the rounds.

177
00:08:17,639 --> 00:08:20,839
Yesterday belonged to Evans, as Evan cooked him.

178
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:22,600
Speaker 2: Up quite nicely cooked.

179
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,519
Speaker 5: It's yeah, it happened, but he was injured so or

180
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:26,800
coming off, and it looks.

181
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 2: Like I know, when I watched the game, I didn't

182
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:33,320
even see Latimore plays. True, even the TeaBot. Did you

183
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,919
have a tick if you knew it was like a

184
00:08:35,919 --> 00:08:38,799
big moment, a big play, not even necessarily you know,

185
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,399
obviously you know you're not getting football, but like a

186
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,679
play that you knew. Okay, I've got to get my block,

187
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,720
and if I don't get my block, you know, just

188
00:08:45,879 --> 00:08:46,919
like a quick something.

189
00:08:47,399 --> 00:08:50,159
Speaker 3: No, No, I mean I I didn't.

190
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 2: I was never.

191
00:08:52,399 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 3: I was never a superstitious player in that regard.

192
00:08:57,799 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 2: Really.

193
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,960
Speaker 3: I had a process like, you know, tap the wind

194
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,919
bar three times the left hand on the way out.

195
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:08,879
Speaker 2: But that would probably be the extent of my so okay,

196
00:09:08,919 --> 00:09:12,720
So when I was with the Chargers, shout out Ollie Wilson,

197
00:09:12,759 --> 00:09:14,720
are running back coach, one of the greatest humans of

198
00:09:14,759 --> 00:09:17,279
all time. He's like, Hey, I want you all to

199
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:21,039
watch each other and if you pick up anything like

200
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,080
I want you to, you know, tell your guy, tell

201
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,759
your brother, tell you know whatever. And my guy told her,

202
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,440
got this one on me. He said, anytime you're about

203
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,960
to block somebody of note, so James Harrison, Clay Matthews,

204
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:39,240
ray Lewis like somebody of note, you always go chin

205
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:43,480
strap with thumbs to make sure the bards and he said,

206
00:09:43,519 --> 00:09:46,120
make sure the buckle. He said, then you go face

207
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,120
mask at the bottom, pull down, and then you get

208
00:09:49,159 --> 00:09:51,840
your helmet and you twist it once. Wow, so boom

209
00:09:51,919 --> 00:09:55,919
boom boom. Yeah, helmet all right though, Yeah, I'm sitting

210
00:09:55,919 --> 00:09:58,799
that like Mike, you're making that up and lo and

211
00:09:58,879 --> 00:09:59,320
behold this.

212
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 3: So this in the I love that your tick was

213
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,559
based on the caliber of the player as well. I've

214
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,840
never really heard about that. You you we saw, We've

215
00:10:06,879 --> 00:10:09,279
even seen this year guy's tipping plays was like, oh,

216
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,600
look when he's in a staggered stance, it's always a

217
00:10:11,799 --> 00:10:13,919
run play, or when the quarterbacks feed, or even it's

218
00:10:13,919 --> 00:10:15,799
a pass play. We see I can't remember who it was,

219
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,639
but they came up a few weeks back on the

220
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,960
college front. But so yours was more about the quality

221
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,159
of the player that you were assigned to on that play.

222
00:10:24,279 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, And it was like, you know how disrespectful. I

223
00:10:28,159 --> 00:10:30,919
don't see you just in your house twenty two. What

224
00:10:31,039 --> 00:10:34,360
the hell? Man? Come on? But you're like you're like, Mike,

225
00:10:34,399 --> 00:10:36,039
I don't do that. And then sure enough, like you

226
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,679
watch the tape and it's like like anybody that like

227
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,960
Terrell sucks if you knew them, here goes and you're

228
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,320
doing it. It's like I'm like, well, yeah, I'm like

229
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,039
the gladiat you're putting on the helmet right, you got

230
00:10:46,039 --> 00:10:47,639
to make sure it's ready to go. And so it's

231
00:10:47,639 --> 00:10:49,840
just it's wild, like what you can pick up. And

232
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:53,440
so Ryan Matthews. His was because I was assigned him.

233
00:10:53,759 --> 00:10:56,440
It was so it was so obvious. So if he

234
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,559
was in gun and it was a pass play, he

235
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,159
didn't feel comfortable in pass protection. Yeah, not that he

236
00:11:02,159 --> 00:11:04,279
couldn't do it, he just didn't like his like he

237
00:11:04,279 --> 00:11:06,919
didn't know his assignment well enough to feel comfortable. So

238
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,279
he would look around. He's patrolling there, he's looking around.

239
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,559
If it was a gun run and he was locked

240
00:11:13,639 --> 00:11:17,360
on his head wouldn't move, nothing would move. He is

241
00:11:17,399 --> 00:11:19,399
so still, he's like a statue. It's like, okay, well

242
00:11:19,399 --> 00:11:22,399
if you're still, you're getting the football. If it's a pass.

243
00:11:22,799 --> 00:11:25,440
You're looking around everywhere trying to make sure because you

244
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,519
don't really know who you have, and you're looking to

245
00:11:27,519 --> 00:11:29,799
see who can come from where they're aligned right now.

246
00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 3: True, that's my favorite story like that. There's an old

247
00:11:33,159 --> 00:11:35,799
Agacy story and I can't remember who the other player was,

248
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,919
but apparently he had just a monstrous serve. But Agacy

249
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,720
picked up that he would do something with his tongue

250
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,679
that would let him know what serve was coming. And

251
00:11:46,759 --> 00:11:50,039
he didn't tell him until years later after they were

252
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,080
both retired, and the guy was like, what the hell, man?

253
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,600
I was so like, I thought you were in my head,

254
00:11:55,639 --> 00:11:57,039
Like I didn't know, I didn't know what it was.

255
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:58,639
I thought you were reading my mind.

256
00:11:58,799 --> 00:12:00,639
Speaker 2: And he was giving it away the whole time, just

257
00:12:00,639 --> 00:12:03,120
with his tongue. And look, it happens to all of us.

258
00:12:03,159 --> 00:12:05,519
And I don't know if y'all know. Kirk Morrison, he

259
00:12:05,519 --> 00:12:08,120
calls college football games for ESPN. He played at San

260
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:10,639
Diego State, played for the Raiders, was really good pro

261
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,240
and he was probably in year five or six or

262
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,360
when I was a rookie. We played them at Oakland

263
00:12:16,399 --> 00:12:18,679
and so Norv used to love to move the fullback

264
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,720
around because he wanted to see what the coverage was.

265
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:22,679
He wanted to give us an opportunity to kind of

266
00:12:22,759 --> 00:12:24,960
cheat it. So for motioning in, we can kind of

267
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,399
go up and out a little bit. And so we

268
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,399
play the Raiders and I'm like, I'm feeling good. I'm like,

269
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,000
I'm a rookie. I'm out here starting, I had a

270
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,879
big game, had a couple of nice blocks, and then

271
00:12:32,879 --> 00:12:35,120
I'll never forget. Kirk comes over. He's like, hey, like,

272
00:12:35,159 --> 00:12:37,080
I know we're in the same division and I probably

273
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,120
shouldn't tell you this, but I want to help you out.

274
00:12:39,159 --> 00:12:41,879
He said. Every time you motion in, you stare at

275
00:12:41,919 --> 00:12:44,399
who you're about to block. He said, every single time,

276
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,320
he said, anytime you looked at me, I knew that

277
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,159
twenty two was coming my way. And I'm like, no, no,

278
00:12:49,159 --> 00:12:51,200
were talking about not He's like, yeah you did. I'm

279
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,759
like all right, So, like like that was my rookie year,

280
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,039
and like that's so helpful because I'm doing it and

281
00:12:57,039 --> 00:12:58,919
I don't realize I'm doing that. I'm just like, I'm

282
00:12:58,919 --> 00:13:01,320
so I'm a rookie. I'm nervis. I'm like, who's my guy?

283
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,679
Where is he at? And when you're coming from outside

284
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,759
and you're going all the way and motion across. When

285
00:13:06,799 --> 00:13:08,879
your feet gets set, they're snapping the ball. Yeah, so

286
00:13:08,919 --> 00:13:10,799
you don't have time to really figure out who it is.

287
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,399
So you have to learn. Okay, let me get a

288
00:13:13,399 --> 00:13:15,879
look at the defense before I go into motion. Let

289
00:13:15,879 --> 00:13:17,919
me just feel if they move or not. And I

290
00:13:17,919 --> 00:13:20,000
got to know where my guy is just based off,

291
00:13:20,279 --> 00:13:22,200
you know, kind of the feel of the game because

292
00:13:22,279 --> 00:13:24,679
if you see yeah, because if you're staring at him

293
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,759
and like, that's not something I've ever maybe would have

294
00:13:27,759 --> 00:13:29,600
picked up or certainly wouldn't picked it up that fast.

295
00:13:29,639 --> 00:13:31,600
But shout out to Kirk Morrison. He's like, every time

296
00:13:31,639 --> 00:13:33,519
you motion them and when you look at somebody, you're

297
00:13:33,519 --> 00:13:34,840
blocking them. Uh.

298
00:13:34,879 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 3: So, young kids out there, Foxhill, move look out for

00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,759
Speaker 1: Welcome back to more sports talk. What's some other stuff

332
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,480
mixed in off the bench with Hester and T Bob.

333
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:22,960
Speaker 2: What's happening to y'all?

334
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 3: We you got to talk Saints coaching search as well,

335
00:15:25,399 --> 00:15:27,200
But right here you talk a little college football.

336
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,039
Speaker 2: Get because you know my mind, I'll forget and I

337
00:15:30,279 --> 00:15:32,559
remember to ask CT. It is a hell of a thing.

338
00:15:32,559 --> 00:15:34,559
It's like when you watch a football game that happened

339
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,720
earlier in the year and you think it's actually going

340
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,960
on live. It is a hell of a thing. And

341
00:15:39,039 --> 00:15:42,759
so I gotta get this out really true. Okay, this

342
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:47,320
is a room effort here. Okay, Three rookie quarterbacks in

343
00:15:47,519 --> 00:15:51,679
NFL history have engineered a game with zero turnovers and

344
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,320
zero punts for their team on offense. So three rookies

345
00:15:56,799 --> 00:15:59,519
on any point in the season, not postseason, any point, okay,

346
00:15:59,679 --> 00:16:03,399
any point, three rookies, three rookie quarter I'm gonna randomly

347
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,759
go Andrew Luck as an answer.

348
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:11,279
Speaker 3: Here, Okay, and we know that Je Daniels, I feel

349
00:16:11,279 --> 00:16:14,879
like one of these was recent recent, shut.

350
00:16:14,679 --> 00:16:22,879
Speaker 5: Uplandra, did you say earlier Peyton Manning did it not.

351
00:16:22,919 --> 00:16:24,879
Speaker 2: As a rookie, not as a rookie, that was any

352
00:16:24,919 --> 00:16:27,080
playoff game he did it? No three.

353
00:16:29,039 --> 00:16:32,360
Speaker 3: I'm saying no three, No, No, Peyton Manning did it.

354
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,679
No three in a play was a rookie.

355
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 5: Though, r G three, I'm acting like I have c T.

356
00:16:39,559 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, just take a guess because we're probably not going

357
00:16:42,559 --> 00:16:43,919
to get it anyway.

358
00:16:44,039 --> 00:16:45,600
Speaker 2: I don't know you're not because I set you up,

359
00:16:45,919 --> 00:16:49,159
all right. So three quarterbacks, three rookie quarterbacks that have

360
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,480
had a game when no turnovers and no punts. Okay,

361
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:57,039
Jade and Daniels Week two, jayde Daniels, Week three, Jade

362
00:16:57,039 --> 00:17:00,200
and Daniels in the lock card game. He didn't for

363
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:01,080
this season.

364
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 4: Would say once, yeah, but I thought we were taking

365
00:17:03,639 --> 00:17:04,279
him out.

366
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,880
Speaker 2: That's another trait question. I was gonna say, well, at

367
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,680
least uh Te got the franchise right.

368
00:17:09,799 --> 00:17:12,319
Speaker 3: Actually in midchie Ma's had it, he said all three

369
00:17:12,319 --> 00:17:13,559
times with JD five and the chat.

370
00:17:13,839 --> 00:17:17,920
Speaker 2: Three rookie quarterbacks in NFL history with no turnovers and

371
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,839
no punts, and that man Jade Daniels has all three

372
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:21,319
of them.

373
00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,599
Speaker 3: It was nice to see Tampa lows as well. That

374
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,519
was great for the NFC South eight as well as

375
00:17:27,599 --> 00:17:28,279
Jade moving on.

376
00:17:28,559 --> 00:17:33,079
Speaker 2: And also this puts to bed any debate who the

377
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:35,400
rookie of the year is yes, because there was Look

378
00:17:36,279 --> 00:17:38,480
was it going to be Jade? Yes? Was there debate?

379
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,759
Oh my gosh, I don't know. Lad McConkie had a

380
00:17:40,759 --> 00:17:43,480
big game this weekend and he was great. Ladarius had

381
00:17:43,519 --> 00:17:45,240
like one to ninety seven. We'll get to him in

382
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,839
a weekend winners. But there's no debate. And bo Nicks

383
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,279
had a great year, fantastic year. Yeah, but I mean bro,

384
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:55,519
they they But Jase was a good game.

385
00:17:55,319 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 3: Manager this year. And that sounds like a majorative, but

386
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,400
like it's not. But he had the best defense of

387
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:05,119
the NFL. Brian Bowers had a fantastic year. Jaden Daniels.

388
00:18:05,599 --> 00:18:09,559
They won because of Jayden Daniels.

389
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:13,680
Speaker 2: They had an eighty seven percent fourth down conversion rate

390
00:18:13,759 --> 00:18:16,680
because of Jade Daniels and what he gives you, the

391
00:18:16,799 --> 00:18:19,799
dual threat option and to stay cool, calm and collected

392
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,680
in those big moments. Yeah, it's it's Jade Daniels. And

393
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,119
Broncos fans get so mad at me on Twitter when

394
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:29,319
I say things like that. But Broncos fans, you've got

395
00:18:29,319 --> 00:18:32,039
your quarterback of the future. He's a really good player.

396
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:35,880
You've got your your quarterback guru. And Sean Payton you'll

397
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:38,039
be Okay, You're not the rookie of the year. It

398
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:39,079
is Jaden Daniels.

399
00:18:39,759 --> 00:18:42,319
Speaker 3: Shout up, my god, Joey Roosevelt texting is Boris Becker.

400
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,799
Andrea Agassy was had had figured out that kind with

401
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:46,319
a tongue.

402
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,880
Speaker 2: I have not heard Boris Becker in a very long time.

403
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,519
I love a good literative name here. Really again, I

404
00:18:52,559 --> 00:18:55,960
was definitely a team andre Agassy. I mean it was

405
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,599
cool Pete Samfras and Andre Agassy. I was a little

406
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:00,200
kid in it.

407
00:19:00,279 --> 00:19:02,039
Speaker 3: Just went with Sampris because he won all the time.

408
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:03,720
But I mean I vaguely remember why. It was like

409
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,039
Andres got that dangle cross range.

410
00:19:06,079 --> 00:19:08,279
Speaker 2: It's true, I will see the bullet.

411
00:19:08,759 --> 00:19:15,559
Speaker 3: Nobody had the follicle range of an agacy rare is

412
00:19:15,599 --> 00:19:18,200
it in which you'll see the athlete pull off such

413
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:24,039
luxurious long hair. I mean, just a beautiful cascading waterfall

414
00:19:24,079 --> 00:19:27,119
of a bullet and then later in his career be

415
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:30,960
forced to just go straight ball and look hot and

416
00:19:31,079 --> 00:19:35,440
bar shout out Andre most hair range in the game.

417
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,759
I agree, Uh, Texas, Ohio State, we were treated to.

418
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,519
We talked after Thursday about our first college football semifinal.

419
00:19:43,599 --> 00:19:47,000
Friday night, we got Texas and Ohio State doing battle,

420
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:51,640
and I mean the Buckeyes continue to roll. I thought

421
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:57,000
Texas actually played pretty well here. Unfortunately, once again it

422
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:59,480
was a situation where when Texas cannot run the ball,

423
00:19:59,519 --> 00:20:02,279
they struggle well despite that, I thought Quinn actually played

424
00:20:02,319 --> 00:20:05,279
better than he had at other times when the game

425
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,880
is kind of forced into his hands. Right there, you

426
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:09,519
had it. I mean, at the very end of the game,

427
00:20:09,559 --> 00:20:11,720
it's twenty one to fourteen, you're down there on the

428
00:20:11,759 --> 00:20:15,480
one yard line, and that's when red zone defense showed

429
00:20:15,559 --> 00:20:19,960
up and Jack Sayer takes over fourth I know, right,

430
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,319
So first you you have the stop, then the second

431
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:26,279
goal sweep call, which has become much maligned.

432
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,400
Speaker 2: People not happy you hear about that later which sark

433
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,440
in that sweep call, and then talk about the superstars

434
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,799
making play who ended up forces the TfL.

435
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 3: Caleb Downs coming up in there, head hunting, Megan a

436
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:38,480
play in the backfield.

437
00:20:38,559 --> 00:20:40,400
Speaker 2: So that set you up with third goal from the seven.

438
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 3: Jack Sawyer comes gets off a great pass rush breaks

439
00:20:44,279 --> 00:20:47,240
up the third down pass, which I saw many Texas

440
00:20:47,279 --> 00:20:49,240
fan jelling for interference right after they've got into two

441
00:20:49,279 --> 00:20:51,240
plays in round. It's like, okay, guys, relax because the

442
00:20:51,279 --> 00:20:53,920
ball got tipped the line. Whatever, But then fourth and goal,

443
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:58,160
game on the line. Texas needs to score and Jack Sawyer,

444
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,599
quinn Ewer's former root mate.

445
00:21:00,839 --> 00:21:02,799
Speaker 2: When you weres that Ohio.

446
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 3: State A two, JACKA hits the right tackle with just

447
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,359
a Houdini pass rush, I mean, old boy goes to

448
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:15,079
punch and it is perfectly time swap down the hands.

449
00:21:15,079 --> 00:21:19,559
The right tackle almost falls over, and then Jack Sawyer stripsack,

450
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:24,440
picks it up, houses it game over. Buckeyes advanced, So

451
00:21:24,519 --> 00:21:27,559
the final score not as indigative. Was a very tough

452
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:31,119
fought game for the majority of the time, but in

453
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:35,240
the end the Buckeyes continue sinsane run that they're on

454
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:36,839
and they will now square with Notre Dame in the

455
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:37,880
National Championship.

456
00:21:38,319 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 2: So much a breakdown from this game. It was a

457
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,759
great football game. Yeah, NFL guys all over the field,

458
00:21:44,799 --> 00:21:48,319
and you're right, like twenty fourteenth a little misleading. It

459
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,880
was a hell of a game. The intensity and because

460
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:52,960
of the weather, the Ohio State fans couldn't get there

461
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,160
like they normally would. You and I have played against

462
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,480
Ohio State in a natty fifty five minutes from here

463
00:21:58,519 --> 00:22:01,559
and they still showed up. They will show right, and

464
00:22:01,839 --> 00:22:04,839
they didn't have that opportunity. It was probably seventy five

465
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:08,200
twenty okay, wow in the building and so like, they

466
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,440
had a lot of things going against them and so

467
00:22:10,519 --> 00:22:13,119
many great performances from so many players on both sides

468
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,000
of the football. Like shout out to Texas defense as well.

469
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,839
They played their balls off like Jeremiah yeah, not getting

470
00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:22,440
the ball and a great game plan and those safeties

471
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,319
for Texas were coming downhill with bad intentions. It was

472
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,039
a couple of plays the screen before half, why are

473
00:22:29,079 --> 00:22:31,160
you blitzing in that? Okay?

474
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:31,359
Speaker 3: Wait?

475
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,799
Speaker 2: Probably a lot of what are you doing? The entire

476
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,559
middle eight is pretty fascinating here.

477
00:22:39,039 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 3: It started with Isaiah Bond dropping a wide open third

478
00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,279
down on a time when Texas could not convert their down.

479
00:22:46,319 --> 00:22:49,720
They des why Zembun drops it? But the defense comes back.

480
00:22:49,799 --> 00:22:52,480
Texas forts Ohio State three and out. They saquell Howards

481
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,720
for the first time all playoffs. Then Texas gets to

482
00:22:54,839 --> 00:22:57,039
fourth and one and that was massive. They end up

483
00:22:57,079 --> 00:23:00,119
running arch Man and almost fumbles, but it works, he

484
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:00,960
holds onto it.

485
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 2: Then you have the oh, by the way, beautiful play

486
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:06,880
design on that as well. Running the running the tight end.

487
00:23:06,839 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 3: Under center, like he's gonna take the snap, you have

488
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,440
it through his legs two arch he takes off.

489
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,640
Speaker 2: Just I mean great jobs are good read too. I

490
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:16,680
mean you have somebody feeling the alley and it looked

491
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,319
like Art should have gone in the alley. Then he

492
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,839
saw him last second. Yeah uh, and then you have it.

493
00:23:21,039 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 3: I mean, look when Quinn does throw, like when his

494
00:23:24,279 --> 00:23:28,599
throughs are nice, they are as Mr. Satisfaction levels of

495
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,920
silky smooth. And that wheel route to Jaden Blue was

496
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:34,480
no different. So so so all of a sudden, okay,

497
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,960
all that work, and yet here Texas sits it's todd Yeah,

498
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:39,839
something you did it. You kind of get your ass

499
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,599
kick the whole game, but your deep intel and going

500
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:43,720
in a halftime, we're good.

501
00:23:43,799 --> 00:23:46,160
Speaker 2: And then you got the screen. When I saw them

502
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:50,160
bringing pressure, I am like, uh oh, because I knew.

503
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,960
I knew Trayvon, Like once you saw him set up

504
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,880
the screen, I knew if he caught it, he's got

505
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:55,519
track speed.

506
00:23:56,319 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 3: I mean, how fast did he hit do you think?

507
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,000
I mean, oh, boy, looked like he hit.

508
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 2: Three.

509
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:06,799
Speaker 3: That was insane and that and that burst in the

510
00:24:06,839 --> 00:24:09,319
middle of the field was just like he almost like

511
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,480
hit like somebody hit fast forward.

512
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,519
Speaker 2: On the on the remains that we'll get like there's

513
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:18,200
a ton of parts to break down. But so after

514
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:22,319
the game, I'm interviewing Traveon Henderson and and all these guys,

515
00:24:22,759 --> 00:24:25,640
and then they are I don't know, it felt authentic.

516
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:29,359
They are so humble and Travion some interviewing, I'm like,

517
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:30,000
asked him about it.

518
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,599
Speaker 3: I would say jug Kinson Henderson played that way for

519
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,359
two Superstars running backs.

520
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,160
Speaker 2: Like it feels like you like enjoy when y'are both going.

521
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,680
And then he gives a great answer. But also, like

522
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:42,880
I was talking, I asked him about the screenplay before half.

523
00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:45,200
He's like, first off, I won't apologize for that personal foul. Guy,

524
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,000
He's like, that's not me, that's not who I need

525
00:24:47,039 --> 00:24:48,519
to be. It hurt my team, and I'm like, you

526
00:24:48,519 --> 00:24:50,640
got a personal foul. Then he took a shot like

527
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,119
somebody like kind of hit him late, and he like

528
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:53,519
gave him one of these in the face mask.

529
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:56,839
Speaker 3: Oh I think that on that play No before this, yes, no,

530
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,960
I remember that, Yeah, killed one of the State, killed

531
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:01,519
up three of their drives, Like I want.

532
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,200
Speaker 2: To pologize for that. And then he got to break

533
00:25:03,279 --> 00:25:05,880
him down the screen and I was blown away. Man,

534
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,119
I had I had Trayvon Henderson A Mecca Buka was incredible.

535
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:12,000
After the game, Caleb Down just tells you how we

536
00:25:12,039 --> 00:25:14,200
are as players in our DNA and how we're wired.

537
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:16,960
He's like, look, when I was at Alabama last year,

538
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,920
like Texas kind of big boy to us, and that's

539
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,640
never lost my mind, Like that's been on the forefront

540
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,000
of my mind ever since. It happens, like I never

541
00:25:25,039 --> 00:25:26,799
want that feeling. I never want that to happen to

542
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,559
me again. And so that's all I thought about in

543
00:25:29,559 --> 00:25:32,119
my preparation for this game was never have that feeling again.

544
00:25:32,759 --> 00:25:35,359
Speaker 3: So and then you know, you know, it was a

545
00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,599
big missed opportunity for Texta laundry you give up that

546
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,599
terrible screen. But I'll be damned, speaking of middle eight,

547
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,680
if Will Howard didn't try to give you the momentum

548
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,359
straight back that first drive of the second half. I mean,

549
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,480
there's a god awful pick and it's like, okay, here goes,

550
00:25:49,559 --> 00:25:51,519
but the Textas just couldn't take advantage of it.

551
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,599
Speaker 2: And that's when it came to a close.

552
00:25:54,839 --> 00:25:58,319
Speaker 3: And it sucks, cause like four yours and it's crazy,

553
00:25:58,400 --> 00:25:59,839
like y'all, y'all are going.

554
00:25:59,759 --> 00:26:01,079
Speaker 2: To run Quinn, you weres out of town.

555
00:26:02,279 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 3: He is going to probably play college football for somebody

556
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:06,720
else here, maybe goes to the NFL.

557
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 2: Because a week or has he announced yet.

558
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,400
Speaker 5: He said before the game they were doing like a

559
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,680
thing on college game day and he said that he's

560
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,440
not returning to college football.

561
00:26:15,519 --> 00:26:17,160
Speaker 2: Okay, so he's gonna go to the NFL. Okay, that

562
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:17,480
makes sense.

563
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,759
Speaker 3: I mean a week class he's done enough where he

564
00:26:19,799 --> 00:26:21,160
doesn't have an injury like Carson Beck.

565
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,599
Speaker 2: That's gonna really just tank his stock.

566
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 5: I was about to say, like you're already on the

567
00:26:24,279 --> 00:26:26,519
verge of tanking your draft stock like I would just.

568
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 3: He but but that just sucks because in this game

569
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:31,880
he impressed me, like when they couldn't when they went

570
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,440
they had seven third downs in a row of which

571
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,759
they hadn't managed to convert, and then he comes up

572
00:26:36,799 --> 00:26:42,279
with that crazy intuitive flip to Blue as he's going down,

573
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,200
and then next thing you know, it's fourth row. They

574
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,440
score the touchdown, making fourteen fourteen. Like I was like,

575
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,359
oh my god, Quinn's going to show up when it

576
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,200
matters most again that fourth down, I thought, And then

577
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:52,240
Jack Sawyer.

578
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,359
Speaker 2: Just wool comes in.

579
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,599
Speaker 5: My thing is I think the defense like really kept

580
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:59,359
them in the game. And Texas defense played lights out

581
00:26:59,559 --> 00:27:00,799
pretty much the whole game.

582
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,400
Speaker 2: And I thought, giving you everything, yeah.

583
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 5: Everything, And I thought the play calling for the majority

584
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,880
of the game and like the plan was great. The

585
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,480
two bad ones are the ones that cost you the game,

586
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:15,400
like that that screen pass and then also the second.

587
00:27:15,079 --> 00:27:18,240
Speaker 2: And yeah one the second the sweep. I talked. I

588
00:27:18,279 --> 00:27:22,119
talked to a Texas coach and he said, this one

589
00:27:22,559 --> 00:27:26,200
is going to hurt so bad. He said, because in

590
00:27:26,279 --> 00:27:28,799
a very well played game, he came down to too

591
00:27:28,839 --> 00:27:31,759
bad plays. And I knew obviously. I knew immediately what

592
00:27:31,839 --> 00:27:33,000
place he was talking about, and.

593
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:39,359
Speaker 5: That Jaden Blewe. The two scores, it was the same.

594
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. When that line go out there, I

595
00:27:41,079 --> 00:27:43,119
was like, oh, they're going to get him again. I

596
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,599
mean the linebacker just he blitz instead of covering, and

597
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,799
you could tell. Cody Simon went over, He's like, what

598
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,400
are you You can read his hands, what are you doing?

599
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,799
But Jayden Blew, somebody I would have gotten a little

600
00:27:53,799 --> 00:27:56,160
bit more involved in the run game. He was having

601
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,759
more success than and they well, they kept like why

602
00:27:59,799 --> 00:28:03,079
is got like multiple he needs to like tap his

603
00:28:03,079 --> 00:28:05,720
head because he like he's tired. And you got Jame

604
00:28:05,799 --> 00:28:08,319
Blue over there, who's already made big plays. He's averaging

605
00:28:08,319 --> 00:28:10,480
four yards per carry. Let him eat a little bit.

606
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:11,319
And they never did.

607
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 3: The the thing that Texas defense did so well, Jake,

608
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:16,319
and I want to know if you think Notre Dame

609
00:28:16,319 --> 00:28:16,960
can recreate it?

610
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:18,640
Speaker 2: And this I got a credit Aaron for this.

611
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 3: Uh, but Texas is so good upfront that they could

612
00:28:24,559 --> 00:28:25,960
still play.

613
00:28:27,759 --> 00:28:28,799
Speaker 2: They could play two.

614
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 3: High safeties, play coverage and really you know, bracket Jeremiah Smith,

615
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,920
commit to it, and they could still stop Ohio State's

616
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,240
rushing attack for the most part. Can and not to

617
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,359
say hohyesty did no success because ate enough right, they

618
00:28:40,359 --> 00:28:42,559
were great in the red zone, especially Judkins was, But

619
00:28:43,359 --> 00:28:46,559
can Notre Dame recreate that? Can they play coverage on

620
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:49,960
Jeremiah Smith and play zone but still be strong enough

621
00:28:50,039 --> 00:28:52,200
upfront so that Hot State can't control the game on

622
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:56,000
the ground, because that that feels like a big inflection.

623
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,000
They have some pieces to be able to do it.

624
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 2: They really due like Notre Dames and I tweeted this

625
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:06,559
out after the Orange Bowl. The biggest difference from Notre

626
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,720
Dame teams in the past that have been good, not

627
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:13,000
not championship great. I do think it's a defensive backfield.

628
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,279
They've got players back there that they've never had before.

629
00:29:16,319 --> 00:29:20,799
They've got rangy, long, physical players back there. They got

630
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:22,559
multiple of them. They got like five or six of

631
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,279
them that are going to play. So in theory, yes,

632
00:29:25,319 --> 00:29:26,880
now the corners are going to be big in that

633
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,519
game for them. Jordan Clark's going to be big in

634
00:29:29,519 --> 00:29:32,400
that game for them playing the nickel position. If they

635
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,400
can get that portion of it done, then we're talking

636
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:39,440
about a similar kind of game defensively. Now, offensively, I

637
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,720
don't know where Notre Dame's going to find success. Yes,

638
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:45,599
it feels like a really bad but their defense right now,

639
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,240
I think their defense can well. And it's like, I mean,

640
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:50,039
is Nap going to be able to play for Notre Neame?

641
00:29:50,039 --> 00:29:53,480
Speaker 4: They're just so in No, No, he's ruled out, he's

642
00:29:53,519 --> 00:29:54,279
not he's not playing.

643
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,359
Speaker 3: So now the same way you just had to face

644
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,599
down Abdull Carter that you're starting left tackle.

645
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 2: They got Jack Sawyer. You're rushers but still tight and

646
00:30:03,519 --> 00:30:05,519
like juniors on the other.

647
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 4: Mecca for them and Mecca BUCA and Cardinal Tape both

648
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,960
made plays against Texas Like, even if they shut down

649
00:30:12,039 --> 00:30:13,400
Jeremiah Smith, it may not be enough.

650
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you still gotta shut down Jeri Smith. You

651
00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,640
know the classic. Let's take away their best thing and

652
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:20,759
force someone else to beat us. Yeah, if you're if

653
00:30:20,759 --> 00:30:22,920
you're injured, attack, There's gonna be great rushers in this game.

654
00:30:23,039 --> 00:30:25,039
Junior for Notre Dame. Then you're gonna have Jack Sawyer

655
00:30:25,039 --> 00:30:27,079
for a high of State. But I'm sitting here thinking,

656
00:30:28,079 --> 00:30:29,839
you know, do you move Jack Sawr around? Like wait

657
00:30:29,839 --> 00:30:32,720
a manuea. They got JTT over there as well, So

658
00:30:32,799 --> 00:30:35,559
like Ohio State's got two really good edge rushers. You

659
00:30:35,559 --> 00:30:38,640
can't really hide an injury, you know what I'm saying.

660
00:30:38,759 --> 00:30:43,640
And because you don't, you don't have let's pick your poison.

661
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 3: It just sucks because if with better injury luck, I

662
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,680
think this would be I would give Notre Dame a

663
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,480
I woul think about picking them to win this game.

664
00:30:53,559 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 2: I've run, yeah, because I've been with them all but yeah,

665
00:30:56,039 --> 00:30:57,720
and I picked them every time too, but not This

666
00:30:57,839 --> 00:31:00,880
is to me was the one team that athlete for

667
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:03,119
athlete you could pair against Ohio State.

668
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 3: I've got some when we get back, I've got some

669

697
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:39,480
I'm off the bench.

698
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 2: Hello all right, welcome back in OTV. One of the

699
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,160
things we were talking about during the break and as

700
00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:53,200
we continue to talk, Texas Ohio State Texas safety Michael

701
00:32:53,279 --> 00:32:58,799
Taff after the game, what sorry, t Baba's out of

702
00:32:58,799 --> 00:33:01,119
the room. Michael Taff after the game. You saw the

703
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,680
raw emotion of him just kind of looking back at

704
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:08,160
the field and then just yelling and screaming and anger

705
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:12,119
and you know the pain of realizing just how far

706
00:33:12,279 --> 00:33:15,200
you've got in the playoffs and it's over and you

707
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:19,240
had chances to win. Pain. We've all gone through that pain,

708
00:33:19,319 --> 00:33:23,599
I was telling Taylor. For me, it wasn't in college

709
00:33:23,599 --> 00:33:25,720
because we were able to get to the victory. It

710
00:33:25,799 --> 00:33:28,559
was in the NFL and twenty twelve where the Broncos

711
00:33:28,559 --> 00:33:30,559
were thirteen to three, we won eleven in a row.

712
00:33:30,599 --> 00:33:32,480
We just beat the hell out of the Ravens at

713
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:36,160
their place a couple of weeks before, and we lose

714
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:39,240
because of you know, a hell mary and regulation and

715
00:33:39,279 --> 00:33:41,039
they get it and we lose in double overtime in

716
00:33:41,079 --> 00:33:47,079
the playoffs, and you just that moment, that feeling knowing

717
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,640
that you can't do anything anymore, there's nothing you can

718
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,559
do about it, and you were so close, and you

719
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:55,119
had the team, and I can remember just yelling like

720
00:33:55,599 --> 00:33:58,559
deeper than the deepest. I was so mad at our

721
00:33:58,599 --> 00:34:02,920
safety because it just shouldn't have happened, like and I

722
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:04,799
and I hated single on out of player, but it's

723
00:34:04,799 --> 00:34:07,839
the only emotion that came to my mind. And just

724
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:11,679
like deeper than deep because I was so mad because

725
00:34:11,679 --> 00:34:15,280
we had such a good team and we had so

726
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,760
many veteran players that that was there. That was Keith

727
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,639
Brookings last year, it was Dan Copen's last year. I

728
00:34:21,679 --> 00:34:23,800
think I was Brandon Stokely's last year. I mean, so

729
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:26,480
many great NFL players and we kind of put this

730
00:34:26,559 --> 00:34:29,760
team together knowing it was going to be it for

731
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:31,400
a lot of us. That's what he was feeling in

732
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:31,719
that moment.

733
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:35,320
Speaker 3: I mean it's a It's why sports are awesome, the

734
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:39,599
thrill of victory and the agony of defeat. I can't

735
00:34:39,599 --> 00:34:41,599
appreciate one without the other.

736
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,079
Speaker 2: And that's a player. Also like to kind of quickly

737
00:34:45,119 --> 00:34:49,360
give you his backstory from Austin. I believe he played

738
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:54,320
if I'm not mistaken, in Austin Westlake walk On so

739
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:58,360
Austin Westlake doesn't get a scholarship, walks On to Texas,

740
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:03,239
becomes a stud at Texas a lot like his safety's coach,

741
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:06,519
Blake Gideon, same thing. Blake's from the Austin area. Walked

742
00:35:06,559 --> 00:35:09,280
On became a Texas legend, that's who coaches. You know

743
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,159
him every single day, and just kind of a cool

744
00:35:12,199 --> 00:35:14,519
story of what it means for him. You could see

745
00:35:14,519 --> 00:35:16,199
in that video what it means to him to play

746
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,079
for Texas and how much that you know, hurt him. Look,

747
00:35:19,159 --> 00:35:20,960
I think he's gonna get a chance to play on Sundays.

748
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,599
But that's what that's what it is. You work so

749
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,519
hard and you love this place and you want the

750
00:35:25,559 --> 00:35:27,440
best for this place, and you have a chance, and

751
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,719
you have this moment to go win a national championship,

752
00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,239
and you can you can almost touch it because I

753
00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:34,760
think if Texas wins that game, I probably feel the

754
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:37,320
same about the matchup against Notre Dame that I do.

755
00:35:37,599 --> 00:35:39,199
O High State versus Notre Dame, Well, I.

756
00:35:39,199 --> 00:35:42,360
Speaker 3: Think I think, I I think I pick.

757
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,599
Speaker 2: I think i'd actually picked. Okay, well, I'd still feel

758
00:35:45,599 --> 00:35:48,280
the same because just looking at individual matchups and you

759
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,119
feel that you see it and you're like, we're almost there.

760
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:54,360
You just you hate Texas though, like it's almost there,

761
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:55,360
and so.

762
00:35:55,559 --> 00:35:58,360
Speaker 3: No, they're just more flawed than they were damn good.

763
00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,119
They were damn good on Friday, but hey, Jack Sawyer

764
00:36:01,159 --> 00:36:03,440
made the place so here. Okay, here's my questions on

765
00:36:03,679 --> 00:36:07,519
the college football Playoff. First, I don't know what the

766
00:36:07,599 --> 00:36:09,760
ratings are. Tried looking them up. I've seen some reference

767
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:11,719
to them not being good, but I don't know. I

768
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,039
will say this talking to my little brother kind of

769
00:36:15,079 --> 00:36:18,320
anecdotally in the friend group as well. Obviously we're gonna

770
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,840
be locked in on everything because we cover it for

771
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:25,000
our jobs. I have seen the sentiment expressed a few

772
00:36:25,039 --> 00:36:28,239
times Jake, that people are struggling to continue to care

773
00:36:29,079 --> 00:36:31,079
a little bit. Maybe it's because it's new, it's a

774
00:36:31,079 --> 00:36:34,280
new rhythm, it's gone on longer, but even again. My

775
00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:36,639
little brother, who's more sports crazy than eye am, even

776
00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:40,880
he telling me yesterday, like, you know, he's just he

777
00:36:41,199 --> 00:36:41,840
didn't watch.

778
00:36:42,639 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 2: He just couldn't keep it up. And I wonder, is this.

779
00:36:47,599 --> 00:36:49,519
Speaker 3: Is this part of a larger trend. Is because it's new,

780
00:36:49,559 --> 00:36:51,440
it's because people normally shift to the NFL time?

781
00:36:51,519 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 2: Is this true at all? Is anybody else feeling this?

782
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,760
Speaker 3: I know this is a tough room to ask because

783
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:58,519
in many ways this is kind of like our job,

784
00:36:58,519 --> 00:37:00,199
and a lot of you had a team in it

785
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,639
as well, which is obviously going to kind of maybe change.

786
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:02,920
Speaker 2: How you feel.

787
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,639
Speaker 5: Well. I was actually having this conversation with somebody like

788
00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:07,960
not that long ago, like he was saying that it's

789
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:10,880
too much. They were against the twelve team playoff, and

790
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,199
I'm like, no, I like it. I think that Like

791
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,760
at first, I think my argument against it was like

792
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,320
and it did happen where people were like, oh, so

793
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,360
and so got cheated out and now we're going to

794
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,280
have a fourteen team playoff or whatever because they're saying

795
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:29,320
like Bama in South Carolina or whatever. But I like

796
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:33,159
it because it just means more football. And I don't know,

797
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,639
I don't have an issue with more playoff games.

798
00:37:36,679 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 3: I wonder, even if the ratings are a bit lower,

799
00:37:39,519 --> 00:37:41,400
if it's still And by the way, before we go

800
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:44,840
too far with this, for a ball season, ESPN literally

801
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:47,280
just set a record for ball season, so most watched

802
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:48,960
ball scene of all time twenty four to twenty five.

803
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:50,559
Speaker 2: So it's not like go too crazy here.

804
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 3: But even if the ratings are a bit lower in

805
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:56,800
a game to game basis, I bet you you're still

806
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,519
making more money just because there's more games.

807
00:37:58,559 --> 00:37:59,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, So.

808
00:37:59,119 --> 00:38:01,639
Speaker 3: It's not gonna go yeah quantity are you? I mean

809
00:38:01,639 --> 00:38:05,320
tell you're probably not. I mean you're football just so I.

810
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 4: Love the twelve team yeah, but honestly, honestly, I was

811
00:38:10,599 --> 00:38:13,039
adamantly against the twelve team playoff when it came out

812
00:38:13,079 --> 00:38:14,079
because of this reason.

813
00:38:14,159 --> 00:38:18,280
Speaker 3: Oh that's yea even jet Pack saying this that and

814
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:20,719
Friday Show saying I haven't watched the second of blah

815
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,760
blah blah, like even even yeah, I know, not a

816
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,199
football guy, unfortunately, you know, kind of played himself.

817
00:38:25,199 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 4: But I just looked at it with you filmed it

818
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:31,599
was hard to find a fourth team in that four

819
00:38:31,639 --> 00:38:33,719
team playoff that could compete with the top three, And

820
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:35,920
I was like, well, you know it's hard to find

821
00:38:36,079 --> 00:38:39,320
four Now you gotta find twelve and make these games competitive.

822
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:42,679
That was my biggest issue coming in. However, Look, football

823
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:44,679
is football for me. More football is than never a

824
00:38:44,719 --> 00:38:47,480
bad thing. I'm definitely for it. But we've had good games.

825
00:38:47,559 --> 00:38:51,440
This is going to happen. It's gonna happen with fourteen.

826
00:38:51,519 --> 00:38:53,559
The more teams you put in, the more blowouts it's

827
00:38:53,599 --> 00:38:54,679
going to be. You just have to accept.

828
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:57,079
Speaker 2: I don't think the blowouts is a storyline anymore though

829
00:38:57,559 --> 00:39:00,360
that in the NFL. Yeah, that's my point. Does it matter?

830
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:01,400
I don't think it matters.

831
00:39:02,519 --> 00:39:06,199
Speaker 3: I think it's more of what is the appetite? Do

832
00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,440
people have the appetite if your team's not in it?

833
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,000
Because a lot of people in chat right now are

834
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,159
saying they're checked out.

835
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,280
Speaker 2: I'm not, but I do this for my job.

836
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,639
Speaker 5: But I even really enjoyed the Penn State Notre Dame game,

837
00:39:17,639 --> 00:39:18,159
and I have.

838
00:39:18,199 --> 00:39:21,280
Speaker 3: No no I agree.

839
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,760
Speaker 2: I mean I was sitting in you know, the Dallas

840
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:28,000
hotel right now, maybe college football psycho, like I was

841
00:39:28,039 --> 00:39:32,559
in the media room and everybody was like like living

842
00:39:32,599 --> 00:39:33,719
on every single play.

843
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:35,599
Speaker 3: I think the one thing that you have to make

844
00:39:35,639 --> 00:39:40,719
peace with is a simple truth in that. How did

845
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:42,639
I write it earlier because I don't want to misspeak

846
00:39:42,679 --> 00:39:49,480
here two things can be true, right, You can simultaneously

847
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:54,360
reward the most true champion, which either teams that win no, no

848
00:39:54,639 --> 00:39:57,599
to say, look at the run without a doubt, the

849
00:39:57,639 --> 00:39:59,599
most true champion whoever wins this game.

850
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:01,920
Speaker 2: But you have also.

851
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 3: Allowed margin more margin of error for a very talented

852
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,559
team that may have underachieved at times. That's kind of

853
00:40:10,599 --> 00:40:12,960
like Ohio State here, right, you gave them they have

854
00:40:13,079 --> 00:40:15,360
more margin of error because of the playoffs. But does

855
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:18,119
that in any way make them less deserving? I say no,

856
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:21,400
when you go out there and you house Tennessee and

857
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,840
you house Oregon and then you beat a Texas team

858
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:25,840
that was top five preseason, top five of the end,

859
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:27,320
so I don't think it affects it.

860
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 2: But that is the truth.

861
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:30,639
Speaker 3: Good Like if you have an uber town, the team

862
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:33,679
you now no longer can screw up an entire year

863
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:35,920
because you messed up one day.

864
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:38,599
Speaker 2: You have a little more margin now. But I think

865
00:40:38,639 --> 00:40:40,920
that's fine. I think that's fine. I mean, I certainly

866
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:42,960
see what you're saying, because you could make the argument

867
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:44,800
that Ohio State was the best team, and they had

868
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:48,119
two losses, and it's hard to explain the Michigan loss.

869
00:40:48,199 --> 00:40:50,239
In fact, I can't do it because it just still

870
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,000
does not make sense. But now they do have the opportunity.

871
00:40:53,119 --> 00:40:55,079
Before in the four team playoff, they don't make the

872
00:40:55,119 --> 00:40:59,719
fourteen playoff. In fact, I mean, does Notre Dame make

873
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,159
the four team playoffs? It'd be right on the end,

874
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,559
right the seed.

875
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:08,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well but that's not because yes, right, but

876
00:41:08,159 --> 00:41:10,679
I don't but I think they were like fifth maybe whatever,

877
00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:12,039
So yeah, it would have been, it would have been.

878
00:41:12,039 --> 00:41:15,159
Speaker 2: It would have been in those teams. You know. Now

879
00:41:15,159 --> 00:41:18,639
they have the opportunity, and it happens in the NFL

880
00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:21,280
all the time, Like like the Giants at nine and

881
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:22,599
seven could go win the Super Bowl.

882
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:26,519
Speaker 3: Piercelesa. Notreame had a much easier path. Bro they've beaten

883
00:41:26,519 --> 00:41:30,119
eleven to one Indiana team that dominated everybody.

884
00:41:29,519 --> 00:41:34,440
Speaker 2: Going to losses. Indiana has just did the two exactly.

885
00:41:35,159 --> 00:41:39,320
Speaker 3: Uh, they beat Georgia, yeah, and then they just beat

886
00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:39,960
Penn State.

887
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 2: That's not a that's a crazy yeah.

888
00:41:42,159 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 4: Seven or eight top twenty five wins, now, yeah, they

889
00:41:45,079 --> 00:41:45,400
might have.

890
00:41:46,639 --> 00:41:50,119
Speaker 2: You can maybe argue they had an easier path than

891
00:41:50,159 --> 00:41:52,480
Ohio state. But it is not an easy path.

892
00:41:52,599 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, maybe like slightly, not that much easier slightly.

893
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:57,800
All right, Oh crap, we gotta go to break. We've

894
00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:58,360
gone very long.

895
00:41:58,360 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 2: Hour two. Wrap it up.

896
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,199

930
00:43:53,039 --> 00:44:04,199
believe he's so just in well fantastic because I don't know.

931
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:08,679
Speaker 3: This is from euro Trip, maybe one of the greatest

932
00:44:09,159 --> 00:44:14,760
cameos of all time. This is Matt Damon randomly singing God,

933
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,559
I know I've looked up the story behind how it

934
00:44:16,599 --> 00:44:18,079
all came about in the past. We should look at

935
00:44:18,079 --> 00:44:20,960
it again because it's probably worth telling. Yeah, out of nowhere,

936
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:24,320
you're watching this teen you know Ryebald comedy and five

937
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:26,280
minutes of the movie, here's Matt Damon singing this song.

938
00:44:26,599 --> 00:44:30,079
So now is it a great cameo because yeah, yeah

939
00:44:30,119 --> 00:44:32,280
something the whole punk rock But now is it great

940
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,639
because it's a megastar doing this. But one of the

941
00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:40,039
best fake songs ever, like could have been an actual

942
00:44:40,199 --> 00:44:43,679
Billboard charting hit and people used to listen to it casually.

943
00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:46,840
Speaker 2: I think I defined this song on LimeWire and put

944
00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:50,760
it without a CD. It just and Taylor pointed, so

945
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:53,960
you just rewatch it this weekends. It on the plane

946
00:44:54,119 --> 00:44:57,480
on the way home, and I was sitting there just laughing.

947
00:44:58,559 --> 00:45:00,480
I forgot how funny that move was.

948
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,360
Speaker 3: The I haven't sanged heights. I need to rewatch it,

949
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:08,400
but it still holds up the Oh, I guess I

950
00:45:08,440 --> 00:45:09,719
forgot what I was gonna say. Now I had a

951
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:11,079
point too. I have like a dismount.

952
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:13,400
Speaker 2: I mean, I've been seeing like I was telling you

953
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:18,880
my baby ride to the morning train so she can

954
00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:22,159

957
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:26,880
