<v Speaker 2>All right, let's get it started. Our final hour here

4
00:00:29.960 --> 00:00:33.159
<v Speaker 2>on a Monday afternoon coffee and company fueled by Thornton's

00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:45.119
<v Speaker 2>you are just now with us, again, better late than never.

<v Speaker 2>with us since the beginning, thank you. That's a big commitment.

12
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:50.600
<v Speaker 2>And there's still one more hour to go, so don't

13
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:52.920
<v Speaker 2>go anywhere. Obviously a lot of reaction from the weekend,

14
00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:57.439
<v Speaker 2>and a big weekend here in Louisville. The total number

15
00:00:57.479 --> 00:01:00.560
<v Speaker 2>of people that were in attendance for the Bourbon and beyond.

16
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:02.119
<v Speaker 2>I was going to say that came to Louisville for it,

17
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:03.880
<v Speaker 2>but I'm sure there's plenty of people. In fact, I'd

18
00:01:03.880 --> 00:01:05.519
<v Speaker 2>say there's more people that went to it that live

19
00:01:05.560 --> 00:01:08.680
<v Speaker 2>here than not. But still people from all over the

20
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:11.439
<v Speaker 2>world coming to Louisville these past four days for the

21
00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:14.439
<v Speaker 2>Bourbon and Beyond Music Festival two hundred and ten thousand people.

22
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:18.159
<v Speaker 2>Sixty thousand of those people showed up on Saturday night

23
00:01:18.599 --> 00:01:21.760
<v Speaker 2>or Saturday during the day, and it was so hot,

24
00:01:21.799 --> 00:01:27.840
<v Speaker 2>and I it's the first time where I've really felt like, man,

25
00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:31.040
<v Speaker 2>who in the world would ever prefer heat over cold? Like,

26
00:01:31.359 --> 00:01:33.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, I think about that often, but it's the

27
00:01:33.120 --> 00:01:34.879
<v Speaker 2>first time I've ever felt that way. And like, I think,

28
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:36.920
<v Speaker 2>you guys are not looking at me crazy on now.

29
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:40.000
<v Speaker 2>You're comfortable. You know, you're not hot and sweaty like

30
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:42.359
<v Speaker 2>you were, so you're probably like, yeah, summer's way better.

31
00:01:43.120 --> 00:01:45.959
<v Speaker 2>I love hot weather. I like melting. But when you

32
00:01:45.959 --> 00:01:49.000
<v Speaker 2>were out there at Bourbon and Beyond or at the

33
00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:51.439
<v Speaker 2>Louisville football game or maybe one of your kids football

34
00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:54.719
<v Speaker 2>games or something, like in the moment when you're sweating

35
00:01:54.719 --> 00:01:57.200
<v Speaker 2>your ass soft, you got sweat coming out of places

36
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:00.120
<v Speaker 2>on your body. You've never had sweat coming out before, right,

37
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:02.959
<v Speaker 2>Like you're looking around, you're turning your head and you're

38
00:02:03.000 --> 00:02:06.000
<v Speaker 2>just fling flinging sweat on people because that's how hot

39
00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:08.639
<v Speaker 2>it was. So like I did feel like, Okay, I'm

40
00:02:08.680 --> 00:02:11.080
<v Speaker 2>not a little bit here, Like everybody knows This is awful.

41
00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:13.840
<v Speaker 2>This is heat. That's just you know, terrible. But it's

42
00:02:13.879 --> 00:02:16.479
<v Speaker 2>gone and falls is you know, it's it's approaching. We're

43
00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:19.479
<v Speaker 2>gonna get cooler temperatures, I hope, and you know that's good.

44
00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:20.960
<v Speaker 2>But man, it was it was really hot. I asked

45
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:23.879
<v Speaker 2>the question in the three o'clock hour because I you know,

46
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:25.479
<v Speaker 2>I was at a football game for my son in

47
00:02:25.479 --> 00:02:26.639
<v Speaker 2>the morning and it was hot, but you know, it

48
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:29.000
<v Speaker 2>was earlier. It got a lot hotter later and then

49
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:31.240
<v Speaker 2>I was tailgating for probably about an hour and a

50
00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:33.800
<v Speaker 2>half and then I was in the game for the

51
00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 2>first half before I had to get out and make

52
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:37.400
<v Speaker 2>sure I could get situated for the postgame show. So

53
00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:39.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, I'm sure if you went to the Bourbon

54
00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:42.280
<v Speaker 2>and Beyond Music festival, a lot of you probably were

55
00:02:42.319 --> 00:02:45.960
<v Speaker 2>out there NonStop and maybe there were places to get cool.

56
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:47.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, would you know about John.

57
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:49.960
<v Speaker 3>Like there's tints, but again, as we mentioned last week,

58
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:51.879
<v Speaker 3>there's no like trees for shade.

59
00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:56.159
<v Speaker 2>You got to go inside something. I mean, everybody's different

60
00:02:56.199 --> 00:02:58.879
<v Speaker 2>when it comes to their ability to handle heat. Everybody

61
00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:01.560
<v Speaker 2>sweats different, but I just feel like it would be

62
00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:04.840
<v Speaker 2>impossible for someone to have been outside Saturday here in Louisville,

63
00:03:05.719 --> 00:03:08.479
<v Speaker 2>and you know, primetime afternoon when the sun's out and

64
00:03:08.520 --> 00:03:12.960
<v Speaker 2>that you're out there, you're just you're constantly just dripping sweat,

65
00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:16.759
<v Speaker 2>like it's just flooding out of your body. Was it

66
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:20.759
<v Speaker 2>was rough. Hydration was essential for sure. I woke up yesterday,

67
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:24.639
<v Speaker 2>got on the scale, lost like three pounds, and I'm like, hell, yeah,

68
00:03:24.639 --> 00:03:26.319
<v Speaker 2>you've been working your ass off in the gym. And

69
00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:29.319
<v Speaker 2>then you know, yesterday a day of a little bit

70
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:33.039
<v Speaker 2>of recovery and hydration. You know, I weighed today and

71
00:03:33.080 --> 00:03:35.120
<v Speaker 2>I was those three pounds came right back. So I

72
00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:37.360
<v Speaker 2>think it was just because I was so dehydrated because

73
00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:40.960
<v Speaker 2>I sweat so much. So anyways, good crowd on hand

74
00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:43.960
<v Speaker 2>on Saturday for the Cards. My first time taking my

75
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:47.199
<v Speaker 2>son Moves to the game. He loved it, you know.

76
00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:50.719
<v Speaker 2>He he just thinks we can go wherever, Like, why

77
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:52.960
<v Speaker 2>are we not on the field, Dad, Well we can't,

78
00:03:52.960 --> 00:03:55.879
<v Speaker 2>Like it's not how this works on we sit in

79
00:03:55.919 --> 00:03:58.840
<v Speaker 2>a seat. But you know, once he was able to

80
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:01.560
<v Speaker 2>stand on a seat and watch the game and cheer,

81
00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:03.319
<v Speaker 2>he was having a great time. He was really tired.

82
00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:04.960
<v Speaker 2>That was one of the things that I you know

83
00:04:04.960 --> 00:04:06.800
<v Speaker 2>he still enjoyed himself, but I could just tell, man,

84
00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:08.879
<v Speaker 2>he was he was exhausted because he had his own

85
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:12.120
<v Speaker 2>game earlier, was out there playing, and then you know,

86
00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:14.080
<v Speaker 2>he'll take a lot out of you, especially if you're

87
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:15.879
<v Speaker 2>four years old and you usually get a nap during

88
00:04:15.919 --> 00:04:17.879
<v Speaker 2>the day. But he had a really, really good time,

89
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:21.759
<v Speaker 2>and it was nice to see a handful of fans

90
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:24.879
<v Speaker 2>there that you know, set hello and mentioned the show

91
00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:26.959
<v Speaker 2>and whatnot, and even knew his name was Moose And

92
00:04:26.959 --> 00:04:28.680
<v Speaker 2>he's still getting he doesn't know how people know his

93
00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:31.680
<v Speaker 2>name and ide you're a big deal, like you're kind

94
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:33.959
<v Speaker 2>of you're kind of a big deal, bro. But we

95
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:35.759
<v Speaker 2>had ourselves a good time, and I'm sure he'll be

96
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:39.759
<v Speaker 2>wanting to go to every game that he can. So

97
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:42.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm just gonna throw this out there. I'm not gonna

98
00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:44.079
<v Speaker 2>put you on the spot to give you to give

99
00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:45.680
<v Speaker 2>me an answer for this, John, because I don't think

100
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:48.720
<v Speaker 2>you would even I mean it. But I don't know

101
00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:51.199
<v Speaker 2>what to say to people. I gotta know, I don't

102
00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:55.279
<v Speaker 2>know what the appropriate response is to people. Whenever, and

103
00:04:55.319 --> 00:04:58.360
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't happen all the time. It happened twice on Saturday,

104
00:04:58.879 --> 00:05:01.720
<v Speaker 2>and it's happened a couple of times before, and nobody's

105
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:03.399
<v Speaker 2>it's not rude. It's just I don't really know what

106
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:06.439
<v Speaker 2>to say when people say this to me. They couldn't

107
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:08.879
<v Speaker 2>get you better seats? What are you doing up here?

108
00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:11.040
<v Speaker 2>Is if? Like you know, like where'd you think I

109
00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:13.160
<v Speaker 2>was on the side, you're entitled on the sideline with

110
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:15.560
<v Speaker 2>a headset, like you know, like I mean, I you know,

111
00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:18.680
<v Speaker 2>like and I get to I'm very fortunate. I get

112
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:21.959
<v Speaker 2>to go to every game for free with the credential,

113
00:05:21.959 --> 00:05:24.519
<v Speaker 2>and I have a seat indoors in the press box,

114
00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:26.959
<v Speaker 2>so like that's awesome, but sometimes I want to go

115
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:29.439
<v Speaker 2>not only as a fan, but also I want to

116
00:05:29.480 --> 00:05:31.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Saturday, I didn't use my credential. We had

117
00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:34.680
<v Speaker 2>tickets and my wife and I we all had with

118
00:05:34.680 --> 00:05:36.560
<v Speaker 2>three tickets and we all went together and it was great.

119
00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:38.959
<v Speaker 2>So like again, like I kind of sometimes look at

120
00:05:38.959 --> 00:05:41.040
<v Speaker 2>people when they say that, like what do you mean?

121
00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:41.279
<v Speaker 1>Like?

122
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:43.959
<v Speaker 2>But then you know, like I just look at them

123
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:46.240
<v Speaker 2>like uh, yuh don't I don't know what to say.

124
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:48.199
<v Speaker 2>It's not it's not rude, but like I also don't

125
00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:51.319
<v Speaker 2>want people to assume that like I think I'm better

126
00:05:51.360 --> 00:05:54.240
<v Speaker 2>than sitting anywhere at a game, Like I I mean, I.

127
00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:57.120
<v Speaker 3>Think a lot of people just assume that radio hosts,

128
00:05:57.160 --> 00:05:59.920
<v Speaker 3>whether it be you know, sports radio or music radio,

129
00:06:00.319 --> 00:06:02.879
<v Speaker 3>they just assume that we get free tickets the best

130
00:06:02.879 --> 00:06:05.199
<v Speaker 3>seats to every thing. Yeah, and there are sometimes where

131
00:06:05.240 --> 00:06:07.040
<v Speaker 3>we do, but that's not really I think that's old

132
00:06:07.079 --> 00:06:08.639
<v Speaker 3>school radio doesn't happen as well.

133
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:09.319
<v Speaker 1>Well.

134
00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:13.519
<v Speaker 2>So like I've like, there used to be ticket giveaways,

135
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:15.000
<v Speaker 2>like you had a better put it this way, you

136
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:17.079
<v Speaker 2>can get a credential if you work in media like

137
00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:18.920
<v Speaker 2>we do. There used to be back in the day,

138
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:22.319
<v Speaker 2>like when Louisville played in Cardinal Stadium, the old baseball stadium,

139
00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:23.800
<v Speaker 2>and they were just trying to get more people, Like

140
00:06:23.800 --> 00:06:26.360
<v Speaker 2>the FM station's probably got a bunch of tickets to

141
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:28.040
<v Speaker 2>give away to get people to go. Like it was.

142
00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:29.600
<v Speaker 2>It was that kind of an event. Now, of course,

143
00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:31.920
<v Speaker 2>over time it's become an attraction where people can charge

144
00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:33.079
<v Speaker 2>you can they can charge a lot of money and

145
00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:36.680
<v Speaker 2>people buy tickets. So it's changed, but like, yeah, I

146
00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:40.040
<v Speaker 2>think it's gotten. There used to be a belief that

147
00:06:40.079 --> 00:06:42.199
<v Speaker 2>like if you covered the team in any way that

148
00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:44.199
<v Speaker 2>or if you like you know, had the coach on,

149
00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:46.519
<v Speaker 2>well that means you have unlimited tickets or something like that. No,

150
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:48.279
<v Speaker 2>it's not how it works, Like we don't know these

151
00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:51.600
<v Speaker 2>They never give us tickets. Now you can get access

152
00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:54.759
<v Speaker 2>and get a credential, which which is great. But yeah,

153
00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:58.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm like I shouldn't say this because it's

154
00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:01.040
<v Speaker 2>a good way to like apply for credential one day

155
00:07:01.079 --> 00:07:03.519
<v Speaker 2>and then tell you, well, why do you need one?

156
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:07.160
<v Speaker 2>Like you? But I just I'm not a journalist, Like

157
00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:10.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm not writing up a column for the game right like,

158
00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:12.319
<v Speaker 2>in fact, I have to do a radio show right afterwards,

159
00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:14.000
<v Speaker 2>so I can actually only stay for like half of

160
00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:20.279
<v Speaker 2>a game at minimum. So you know, Like long story short,

161
00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Like I enjoy going to a game and sitting in

162
00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:25.759
<v Speaker 2>a seat, drinking beer and screaming my lungs out and

163
00:07:25.839 --> 00:07:28.279
<v Speaker 2>being a fan more than I would ever. Like the

164
00:07:28.279 --> 00:07:31.199
<v Speaker 2>press box is great at times, and I appreciate all

165
00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:32.800
<v Speaker 2>the years I've been able to get there, but like

166
00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:34.399
<v Speaker 2>it's not fun, you know what I mean, It's work

167
00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:37.120
<v Speaker 2>and being able to go to the game and enjoy

168
00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:39.959
<v Speaker 2>it from a fan aspect and tailgate it kind of

169
00:07:39.959 --> 00:07:42.759
<v Speaker 2>distracts me that I am actually working that day. Later

170
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:44.560
<v Speaker 2>when I do the postgame show, and it's also a

171
00:07:44.600 --> 00:07:47.120
<v Speaker 2>healthy reminder how lucky I am that I get to

172
00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:50.480
<v Speaker 2>I get to do this, and I'm you know, I'm

173
00:07:50.519 --> 00:07:52.319
<v Speaker 2>a super fan that gets to, you know, do something

174
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:54.399
<v Speaker 2>at least that I think is pretty cool. But yes,

175
00:07:54.439 --> 00:07:56.560
<v Speaker 2>it was. It was a good time despite the heat,

176
00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:58.319
<v Speaker 2>and I'm sure we'll be back out there for a

177
00:07:58.360 --> 00:08:00.600
<v Speaker 2>game at some point the rest of the way. I

178
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:02.160
<v Speaker 2>don't know when I'll be able to take Moose because

179
00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:03.839
<v Speaker 2>he's got his football games too, But uh yeah, we

180
00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:07.759
<v Speaker 2>had a good time. Now, the game itself, I feel

181
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:10.439
<v Speaker 2>a little bit differently now than I did in the

182
00:08:10.439 --> 00:08:13.120
<v Speaker 2>postgame show. On the postgame show, I was just happy

183
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:15.120
<v Speaker 2>they were able to find a way to win, because,

184
00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:17.720
<v Speaker 2>let's be real, some things flipp pretty quickly to where,

185
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:20.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, you look like you could potentially lose. I mean,

186
00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:22.639
<v Speaker 2>that was a real game, neck and neck. In fact,

187
00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:24.839
<v Speaker 2>there's some metrics that kind of tell you throughout the game,

188
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:28.959
<v Speaker 2>like what the percentage chances it every second are as

189
00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:31.879
<v Speaker 2>far as your win probability in that game was as

190
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:35.120
<v Speaker 2>close as any among Power Power four teams that played

191
00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:37.000
<v Speaker 2>each other. But again, Louisville had they big scoop and

192
00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:39.159
<v Speaker 2>score you know, they had the rare I mean, they

193
00:08:39.200 --> 00:08:41.720
<v Speaker 2>could have run away with it, but you know, the

194
00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:46.120
<v Speaker 2>safety was was not ideal. And you know, it's a

195
00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:47.759
<v Speaker 2>weird game. Actually not that to think about. It is

196
00:08:47.840 --> 00:08:50.639
<v Speaker 2>rare that you see a team get an offensive touchdown,

197
00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:52.799
<v Speaker 2>a defensive touchdown, and a special teams touchdown. And I'm

198
00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:54.639
<v Speaker 2>using the word rare because I mean it is rare.

199
00:08:54.759 --> 00:08:57.200
<v Speaker 2>Some would say it's flukey. Some would even say maybe luck,

200
00:08:57.559 --> 00:09:01.320
<v Speaker 2>and yeah, maybe you maybe you're that's valid to say. However,

201
00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:03.320
<v Speaker 2>I think good teams that are locked in, that come

202
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:06.000
<v Speaker 2>ready to play, that are disciplined, they should be prepared

203
00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:08.759
<v Speaker 2>to make you pay for those mistakes. That's what good

204
00:09:08.759 --> 00:09:12.320
<v Speaker 2>teams do. And you know, Louisville took advantage of Haines

205
00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:15.600
<v Speaker 2>King becoming Will Levis on Saturday and just you know,

206
00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:18.720
<v Speaker 2>having the yips or something and just making a stupid,

207
00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:21.720
<v Speaker 2>stupid pass. Well, Louisville took advantage and fell on the

208
00:09:21.799 --> 00:09:24.440
<v Speaker 2>end zone and scored a touchdown. Right, Like, that's not luck.

209
00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:26.240
<v Speaker 2>I think that's just making a play because they made

210
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:29.799
<v Speaker 2>a mistake. It's sports. You know, same thing when you

211
00:09:29.799 --> 00:09:31.879
<v Speaker 2>blocked the field goal and you took it to the house,

212
00:09:32.279 --> 00:09:34.279
<v Speaker 2>like blocking a field goal is rare, blocking one, and

213
00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:36.600
<v Speaker 2>then it's a scoop and score that's even more rare.

214
00:09:36.679 --> 00:09:38.639
<v Speaker 2>But you know what, you were ready to make a

215
00:09:38.679 --> 00:09:41.600
<v Speaker 2>play at the moment they messed up and they clearly

216
00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:45.799
<v Speaker 2>didn't have enough protection and Kit got blocked. So you know,

217
00:09:45.840 --> 00:09:49.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't think Louisville played great. In fact, I feel

218
00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:51.120
<v Speaker 2>even I feel like a liar if I said they

219
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:52.679
<v Speaker 2>played good. But then again, I look at the numbers

220
00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:55.200
<v Speaker 2>and it's like, yeah, I mean then you know, numbers matter.

221
00:09:55.679 --> 00:09:57.840
<v Speaker 2>Winning really is all that matters. But like numbers don't

222
00:09:57.840 --> 00:10:00.879
<v Speaker 2>tell the whole story. So you know, I think they

223
00:10:00.919 --> 00:10:03.159
<v Speaker 2>did not play a clean game. And I think Georgia

224
00:10:03.159 --> 00:10:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Tech has proven under Brent Key, to be a team

225
00:10:05.480 --> 00:10:08.519
<v Speaker 2>that's really good at making you muddy it up and

226
00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:11.200
<v Speaker 2>it that way, at that style, they have a better

227
00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:13.600
<v Speaker 2>chance of winning, right, And that's what they did. So

228
00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:18.159
<v Speaker 2>you know, Brent Key, he lost for the fourth time

229
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:24.399
<v Speaker 2>in sixteen games. Wait a second, they just played their

230
00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:28.440
<v Speaker 2>fifth game, didn't they. Wow, So Brent Key lost for

231
00:10:28.559 --> 00:10:30.600
<v Speaker 2>the fifth time. Let me double check this because this

232
00:10:30.639 --> 00:10:33.080
<v Speaker 2>is I think this is an impressive number. Going into

233
00:10:33.080 --> 00:10:36.919
<v Speaker 2>the game. He was thirteen and three against the spread

234
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:39.799
<v Speaker 2>with ten out right wins when he was an underdog.

235
00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:43.559
<v Speaker 2>So he just coached his seventeenth game and he's now

236
00:10:44.200 --> 00:10:47.639
<v Speaker 2>thirteen and four. So you know, this guy had ten

237
00:10:47.639 --> 00:10:50.000
<v Speaker 2>outright wins as an underdog, and that's because he can

238
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:53.519
<v Speaker 2>find ways to muddy it up, ugly it up, whatever

239
00:10:53.519 --> 00:10:55.240
<v Speaker 2>you want to call it, and that gives his team

240
00:10:55.279 --> 00:10:59.279
<v Speaker 2>a better chance to win when their opponent is more talented.

241
00:10:59.320 --> 00:11:00.799
<v Speaker 2>You know, they did it to George last year, played

242
00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:02.200
<v Speaker 2>him within a touchdown. So I don't want to gas

243
00:11:02.279 --> 00:11:03.639
<v Speaker 2>up George Tech too much because I don't want you

244
00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:06.000
<v Speaker 2>to think that I'm telling you they're a playoff caliber team,

245
00:11:06.399 --> 00:11:09.960
<v Speaker 2>but they usually do a really good job of having

246
00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:12.639
<v Speaker 2>games just be kind of weird and finding ways to win.

247
00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:14.519
<v Speaker 2>But they didn't. They weren't able to do it against Louisville.

248
00:11:14.519 --> 00:11:16.080
<v Speaker 2>So I think Lowe was in a good spot here, right.

249
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:17.519
<v Speaker 2>They know they got a lot to they got a

250
00:11:17.519 --> 00:11:19.559
<v Speaker 2>lot to build off of. They know they can get

251
00:11:19.600 --> 00:11:21.679
<v Speaker 2>a lot better. There's no way they feel like they

252
00:11:21.679 --> 00:11:24.399
<v Speaker 2>played a great game, but they still got a conference victory,

253
00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:27.200
<v Speaker 2>and uh, you know, now they got a chance to

254
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:29.240
<v Speaker 2>go get a big time victory. Although it's not a

255
00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Conference victory. If you win, it gets notre dame. So

256
00:11:32.759 --> 00:11:36.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, I when you see Jacorey Brooks another play

257
00:11:37.039 --> 00:11:39.039
<v Speaker 2>that I just wanted to refer like, that's that's not normal.

258
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.120
<v Speaker 2>But you know what, he's a talented guy. They held

259
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:43.279
<v Speaker 2>him because they can't they couldn't keep him in front,

260
00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:46.399
<v Speaker 2>and he still managed to turn himself around and you

261
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:48.639
<v Speaker 2>know ball was right where it needed to be. That's

262
00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:51.440
<v Speaker 2>a touchdown. So yeah, I mean, I mean, I don't

263
00:11:51.440 --> 00:11:52.679
<v Speaker 2>want to make it out like you had a bunch

264
00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:54.960
<v Speaker 2>of breaks that went your way and you were fortunate

265
00:11:55.000 --> 00:11:57.399
<v Speaker 2>to win. I'm sure that's how Georgia Tech's looking at it.

266
00:11:57.440 --> 00:12:01.120
<v Speaker 2>But you know, Georgia Tech did some things to put

267
00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:03.600
<v Speaker 2>Louisville in that position to make them pay and win

268
00:12:03.639 --> 00:12:07.320
<v Speaker 2>the game. So the real concern for me is the injuries, right,

269
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:09.679
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Quincy Riley, I don't know if he should

270
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:12.360
<v Speaker 2>be fielding punts, Like he's too good of a player

271
00:12:12.399 --> 00:12:16.320
<v Speaker 2>to be out there risking injury in special teams. Now,

272
00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:18.960
<v Speaker 2>he's a weapon because he's a talented guy. But like,

273
00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:20.200
<v Speaker 2>I think you had some other dudes you could put

274
00:12:20.200 --> 00:12:22.519
<v Speaker 2>back there that would also be pretty effective. So Jeff

275
00:12:22.559 --> 00:12:24.799
<v Speaker 2>Brom said today that he is a game time decision,

276
00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:30.080
<v Speaker 2>so we'll see. I mean, I was gonna do what

277
00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:31.639
<v Speaker 2>I did in the three o'clock hour and just kind

278
00:12:31.639 --> 00:12:34.080
<v Speaker 2>of tell you that my gut doesn't feel like he's

279
00:12:34.120 --> 00:12:36.840
<v Speaker 2>gonna play. But I'm literally just like, I'm just guessing.

280
00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:40.200
<v Speaker 2>It's not like I've gotten any kind of info or

281
00:12:40.879 --> 00:12:43.159
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Jeff Brom's not somebody who can really read

282
00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:45.320
<v Speaker 2>a whole lot when it comes to body language or

283
00:12:45.360 --> 00:12:48.039
<v Speaker 2>facial expression. But you know, we'll see. I hope he

284
00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:49.519
<v Speaker 2>can play. He's one of your best players. Some would

285
00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:53.120
<v Speaker 2>say he's your best player. Jayden Thompson, who got the

286
00:12:53.120 --> 00:12:56.960
<v Speaker 2>starting spot when Colin Lacy went down, he's now out

287
00:12:56.960 --> 00:12:59.200
<v Speaker 2>for the year after that knee injury. So the guy

288
00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:01.039
<v Speaker 2>who replaced somebody that got hurt is now out for

289
00:13:01.080 --> 00:13:03.879
<v Speaker 2>the year. So you're thin at receiver. Colin Lacy. Jeff

290
00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:06.720
<v Speaker 2>said he's a game time decision. I don't believe he'll play,

291
00:13:06.720 --> 00:13:10.960
<v Speaker 2>but man, I'd be really excited if he did. So,

292
00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:13.399
<v Speaker 2>you know, like everybody in college football, you're dealing with

293
00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:15.519
<v Speaker 2>some injuries. But what I hope is that with Quincy

294
00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:18.960
<v Speaker 2>it's not it's not you know, it's not something that's severe.

295
00:13:18.960 --> 00:13:21.080
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it sounds like it's not severe. I think

296
00:13:21.080 --> 00:13:24.840
<v Speaker 2>they would tell us if it was. But I just,

297
00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:26.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, I hope he can play because you need him,

298
00:13:26.759 --> 00:13:28.279
<v Speaker 2>Like he's one of those guys that without him, yeah

299
00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:29.759
<v Speaker 2>you do, look at Louisville, but a little bit different

300
00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:32.000
<v Speaker 2>doesn't mean they can't go beat good teams without anybody

301
00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:35.039
<v Speaker 2>on the roster. Like they got good guys that clearly

302
00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:36.720
<v Speaker 2>you know you don't want to you don't want to

303
00:13:36.759 --> 00:13:41.440
<v Speaker 2>be without, but there's probably not many that you would say, Okay, yeah,

304
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:45.279
<v Speaker 2>that's detrimental, like that's that changes things in a major way. Well,

305
00:13:45.320 --> 00:13:47.879
<v Speaker 2>Quincy's one of those guys. So hopefully he can. Hopefully

306
00:13:47.879 --> 00:13:50.840
<v Speaker 2>he can go all right, so some other I mean,

307
00:13:50.840 --> 00:13:54.480
<v Speaker 2>I think I've decided I'm gonna not at all bet

308
00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:58.639
<v Speaker 2>on Deon Sanders in Colorado ever, because I've been talking,

309
00:13:59.679 --> 00:14:02.440
<v Speaker 2>I've been talking pretty recklessly about Deon Sanders. I mean,

310
00:14:02.519 --> 00:14:05.919
<v Speaker 2>it's never been personal, but like he's somebody that makes

311
00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:11.799
<v Speaker 2>it easy for you to root against, and he has struggled,

312
00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:14.720
<v Speaker 2>and you know he's now beating teams he's supposed to beat.

313
00:14:14.720 --> 00:14:17.720
<v Speaker 2>They were favorites in that game against Baylor. He's beating

314
00:14:17.720 --> 00:14:20.000
<v Speaker 2>teams he was supposed to beat and yet acting as

315
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:23.639
<v Speaker 2>if he's accomplishing something crazy. So you know, they're winning,

316
00:14:23.840 --> 00:14:25.639
<v Speaker 2>and you know they now have what three wins on

317
00:14:25.639 --> 00:14:29.679
<v Speaker 2>the year. Is that one more? That's one less than

318
00:14:29.679 --> 00:14:31.799
<v Speaker 2>what they finished with last year. So you know, we

319
00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:35.159
<v Speaker 2>shall see. They're getting all these prime time games and

320
00:14:35.200 --> 00:14:37.120
<v Speaker 2>the games some of them have been exciting, but like,

321
00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:39.159
<v Speaker 2>nobody really knows if they're actually any good. I think,

322
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:41.279
<v Speaker 2>actually Dada will tell you. Your eyeballs will tell you

323
00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:42.480
<v Speaker 2>that they're not that good of a team. They've got

324
00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:45.519
<v Speaker 2>a really special quarterback who can make plays, but they

325
00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:47.360
<v Speaker 2>can't run the ball. But they also have a guy

326
00:14:47.399 --> 00:14:49.799
<v Speaker 2>that I think is quite clearly the most talented player

327
00:14:49.840 --> 00:14:52.600
<v Speaker 2>in college football in Travis Hunter. I mean, that guy's insane.

328
00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:54.320
<v Speaker 2>But anyways, the reason I bring it up is because

329
00:14:54.720 --> 00:14:58.399
<v Speaker 2>I did feel like this was on me. It wasn't

330
00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:01.080
<v Speaker 2>like I mean, in fact, i'd say the majority of

331
00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:03.000
<v Speaker 2>people did the same thing when it comes to wagering

332
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:07.639
<v Speaker 2>on the Baylor and in Colorado game, because I didn't

333
00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:11.519
<v Speaker 2>take you know, I took Baylor money line, which again

334
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:13.759
<v Speaker 2>maybe that is maybe doing that is in the minority.

335
00:15:14.600 --> 00:15:19.120
<v Speaker 2>But when I was wrapping up the postgame show, or

336
00:15:19.159 --> 00:15:20.559
<v Speaker 2>I guess honestly, it was when I was getting the

337
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:22.919
<v Speaker 2>postgame show started. I think, I don't know when I

338
00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:25.480
<v Speaker 2>made this bet, but these are bets that like, yeah,

339
00:15:25.919 --> 00:15:29.639
<v Speaker 2>this was the seven point thirty on like seven PM late.

340
00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:32.399
<v Speaker 2>I did a four leg parlay and it would have

341
00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:33.799
<v Speaker 2>been a big hit for me, and I didn't get

342
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:35.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, I wasn't really doing a whole lot of

343
00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:36.679
<v Speaker 2>betting throughout the day because I was busy with my

344
00:15:36.679 --> 00:15:38.159
<v Speaker 2>son's football game, and then of course I was at

345
00:15:38.200 --> 00:15:43.360
<v Speaker 2>the game. But I had Tennessee money line Oklahoma that

346
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:48.639
<v Speaker 2>clearly hit. I took Oregon State money line against Purdue,

347
00:15:49.080 --> 00:15:52.440
<v Speaker 2>no sweat there. Boston College was gifted the game against

348
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:55.120
<v Speaker 2>Michigan State, but hey, Boston College, they got the dub.

349
00:15:56.080 --> 00:15:58.279
<v Speaker 2>And then I had Baylor money line, and like if

350
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:02.480
<v Speaker 2>you know how that game ended, like that's a bad beat, right,

351
00:16:02.600 --> 00:16:05.600
<v Speaker 2>Like I hate saying bad beat because that's what bad

352
00:16:05.799 --> 00:16:10.200
<v Speaker 2>betters say, and we've all had them every now and then.

353
00:16:10.240 --> 00:16:15.039
<v Speaker 2>But like, I, you know, had that kicker not shanked

354
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:18.440
<v Speaker 2>it for Baylor, had they defended the Hail Mary any better,

355
00:16:18.519 --> 00:16:20.080
<v Speaker 2>like then that's a win for me and I'm you know,

356
00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:22.480
<v Speaker 2>and then I feel better about betting. So I took

357
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:25.440
<v Speaker 2>a bath yesterday when it comes to the NFL, and

358
00:16:25.480 --> 00:16:28.960
<v Speaker 2>I I mean, I'm gonna continue to do it, although

359
00:16:28.960 --> 00:16:31.399
<v Speaker 2>I'm definitely excited about the underdog fantasy stuff because that

360
00:16:31.399 --> 00:16:33.600
<v Speaker 2>really has nothing The underdog fantasy plays that I mentioned earlier,

361
00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:35.240
<v Speaker 2>that has nothing to do with like winning and losing.

362
00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:38.960
<v Speaker 2>That's just player statistics higher or lower. But like the NFL,

363
00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:41.399
<v Speaker 2>like who's good in the NFL? Like make it make sense?

364
00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:45.360
<v Speaker 2>I mean yesterday another example of like I thought of

365
00:16:45.639 --> 00:16:50.240
<v Speaker 2>very manageable, Like anytime you win big bets, you could

366
00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:52.279
<v Speaker 2>always chalk it up to like, yeah, there's some luck involved,

367
00:16:52.279 --> 00:16:54.320
<v Speaker 2>because if luck wasn't involved, then it was really a

368
00:16:54.360 --> 00:16:56.440
<v Speaker 2>skill that people were really good at that you developed.

369
00:16:56.840 --> 00:16:58.519
<v Speaker 2>You'd make a ton of money and not work, and

370
00:16:58.519 --> 00:17:00.159
<v Speaker 2>that would be what you would do, you know what

371
00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:01.559
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Like there's a reason like that. You know,

372
00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:05.559
<v Speaker 2>some people are better than others. But I had the

373
00:17:05.599 --> 00:17:09.720
<v Speaker 2>Steelers money line, got it Colts money lines. So what

374
00:17:09.720 --> 00:17:11.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing here, John, I'm not even like I'm not

375
00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:15.640
<v Speaker 2>even doing spreads. I'm doing money lines just to play

376
00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:18.240
<v Speaker 2>to make it safer, right, Yeah, and then like what

377
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:20.119
<v Speaker 2>looked to be, in my opinion, one of the most

378
00:17:20.160 --> 00:17:24.160
<v Speaker 2>probable victories ever ended up being the opposite. Like how

379
00:17:24.200 --> 00:17:28.640
<v Speaker 2>of the Broncos suck so bad? And Tampa Bay off

380
00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:31.279
<v Speaker 2>to a great start last week people were saying they

381
00:17:31.359 --> 00:17:32.640
<v Speaker 2>might be a top five team in the league. They

382
00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:34.799
<v Speaker 2>just went on the road and wanted Detroit and then

383
00:17:34.839 --> 00:17:37.359
<v Speaker 2>they welcome in Denver to Tampa and they lose. Like,

384
00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:41.960
<v Speaker 2>I mean, who's good? I mean, it's insane. So I've

385
00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:43.720
<v Speaker 2>always been bad at the NFL for the most part,

386
00:17:44.039 --> 00:17:47.039
<v Speaker 2>and I still keep coming back because you know, it's

387
00:17:47.079 --> 00:17:49.599
<v Speaker 2>fun and it's not like I'm you know, I'm not

388
00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:52.000
<v Speaker 2>making financial sacrifices here to where I can't feed my

389
00:17:52.079 --> 00:17:54.279
<v Speaker 2>children and pay my bills. But you know, like I

390
00:17:54.359 --> 00:17:56.799
<v Speaker 2>keep coming back, and I've had very little payoff. And

391
00:17:56.839 --> 00:17:58.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't just mean like money, I mean like the

392
00:17:58.759 --> 00:18:02.319
<v Speaker 2>payoff of like, yeah, this is fun because occasionally I win.

393
00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:04.039
<v Speaker 2>Now to the point where like I never win.

394
00:18:04.480 --> 00:18:06.920
<v Speaker 3>I'm over on NFL bets as well, So I'm in

395
00:18:06.920 --> 00:18:07.799
<v Speaker 3>that misery with you.

396
00:18:08.119 --> 00:18:10.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, this NFL season, like nobody can make the

397
00:18:10.920 --> 00:18:16.799
<v Speaker 2>claim that the NFL is not great. It is Ratings

398
00:18:16.839 --> 00:18:18.960
<v Speaker 2>and revenue are through the roof, and I don't see

399
00:18:19.000 --> 00:18:21.519
<v Speaker 2>them slowing down anytime soon. Like the NFL is so

400
00:18:21.680 --> 00:18:25.319
<v Speaker 2>popular in this country, it's insane. You hear somebody say

401
00:18:25.359 --> 00:18:27.359
<v Speaker 2>they don't like the NFL, they might get deported. Like

402
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:32.799
<v Speaker 2>we love the NFL and the numbers, ratings, and revenue

403
00:18:32.920 --> 00:18:36.400
<v Speaker 2>really are all that matters for the league. But I

404
00:18:36.440 --> 00:18:38.720
<v Speaker 2>don't know, man, Like the product has not been good.

405
00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:40.319
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not saying this because I lost bets, but

406
00:18:40.400 --> 00:18:42.880
<v Speaker 2>like yesterday, it was a pretty lousy day of football.

407
00:18:42.920 --> 00:18:45.839
<v Speaker 2>Like as far as entertainment value. Now, if you watched

408
00:18:45.839 --> 00:18:47.519
<v Speaker 2>your team and they won, and even if it was ugly,

409
00:18:47.519 --> 00:18:48.960
<v Speaker 2>you don't care because you want your team to win.

410
00:18:49.759 --> 00:18:53.000
<v Speaker 2>But like I think they're dealing with poor quarterback play

411
00:18:53.079 --> 00:18:54.519
<v Speaker 2>right now is a big factor. And you got so

412
00:18:54.599 --> 00:18:57.240
<v Speaker 2>many guys that are not to face of the league necessarily

413
00:18:57.240 --> 00:18:59.720
<v Speaker 2>because that's Patrick Mahomes. But you got guys that are

414
00:19:00.119 --> 00:19:02.759
<v Speaker 2>that are really really popular, that are big deal that

415
00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:05.240
<v Speaker 2>aren't playing because they're injured. And that's nobody's fault. That's football.

416
00:19:05.240 --> 00:19:08.200
<v Speaker 2>But like Poukinakua is out, Cem sees out Tua may

417
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:13.160
<v Speaker 2>never play again. Jordan loves out Jordan Addison's out. T

418
00:19:13.319 --> 00:19:17.559
<v Speaker 2>Higgins has been out for a while, Keenan Allen, even

419
00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:20.319
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes has had some injury stuff. Davonte Smith, Justin Jefferson,

420
00:19:20.359 --> 00:19:23.240
<v Speaker 2>two great receivers. These are guys that, like as of now,

421
00:19:23.279 --> 00:19:25.319
<v Speaker 2>like they've been banged up and if they're ruled out,

422
00:19:25.319 --> 00:19:29.400
<v Speaker 2>like you can't say that you're surprised. I mean, Derek

423
00:19:29.440 --> 00:19:34.359
<v Speaker 2>Carr has a better QB rating than anybody in the NFL. Nobody, like,

424
00:19:34.400 --> 00:19:36.960
<v Speaker 2>nobody would tell you that makes any sense. Playing well

425
00:19:36.960 --> 00:19:40.039
<v Speaker 2>and it is still relatively early. Like Andy Dalton is

426
00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:42.400
<v Speaker 2>the first quarterback with three hundred yards and three touchdowns

427
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:46.559
<v Speaker 2>in a game this season. What Andy Dalton, like we

428
00:19:46.599 --> 00:19:49.240
<v Speaker 2>all that isn't because oh Andy Dalton's been waiting for

429
00:19:49.240 --> 00:19:51.880
<v Speaker 2>another opportunity, Because this guy's always been great. He's just

430
00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:54.000
<v Speaker 2>been you know, he's been black balled and nobody wants

431
00:19:54.039 --> 00:19:54.640
<v Speaker 2>to give him a chance.

432
00:19:54.680 --> 00:19:54.759
<v Speaker 1>No.

433
00:19:54.759 --> 00:19:56.680
<v Speaker 2>Look, we know, we know Andy Dalton's ceiling and the

434
00:19:56.680 --> 00:19:58.000
<v Speaker 2>fact that he's been able to give you the best

435
00:19:58.000 --> 00:20:00.880
<v Speaker 2>performance from a quarterback up to this. It's not a

436
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:04.079
<v Speaker 2>good look for the quarterbacks in the NFL. You know,

437
00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:08.440
<v Speaker 2>the the Ravens, I mean, their bounce back when was

438
00:20:08.440 --> 00:20:10.759
<v Speaker 2>I think predictable. But the Cowboys, you know, they go

439
00:20:10.839 --> 00:20:14.359
<v Speaker 2>in against Cleveland look phenomenal against the talented Cleveland team

440
00:20:14.440 --> 00:20:17.359
<v Speaker 2>other than their quarterback issue. And then you know, since

441
00:20:17.400 --> 00:20:20.240
<v Speaker 2>then they get killed by the Saints and then they

442
00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:22.240
<v Speaker 2>get you know, they should have gotten killed yesterday about

443
00:20:22.200 --> 00:20:25.440
<v Speaker 2>the Ravens because you know, the game some questionable officiating late.

444
00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:29.240
<v Speaker 2>But like, I don't know, I just this is anybody

445
00:20:29.279 --> 00:20:33.000
<v Speaker 2>claiming to be like anti NFL is you know, I mean,

446
00:20:33.000 --> 00:20:35.160
<v Speaker 2>you can have that opinion, but that wouldn't be a

447
00:20:35.160 --> 00:20:37.200
<v Speaker 2>popular opinion among those who love sports. So I'm not

448
00:20:37.240 --> 00:20:39.880
<v Speaker 2>anti NFL. I just feel a little underwhelmed. And I

449
00:20:39.920 --> 00:20:41.640
<v Speaker 2>don't think it's because I've lost bets. I think it's

450
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:44.359
<v Speaker 2>just because, like the product's not been great. But at

451
00:20:44.359 --> 00:20:46.720
<v Speaker 2>the end of the day, even if you agree with me,

452
00:20:47.279 --> 00:20:50.599
<v Speaker 2>and millions would agree with me, we're all still watching,

453
00:20:50.960 --> 00:20:52.920
<v Speaker 2>and that means records and revenue are going to be

454
00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:55.480
<v Speaker 2>great for the NFL, and they don't. They're not evaluating

455
00:20:55.480 --> 00:20:57.960
<v Speaker 2>things like, hmm, we might want to reevaluate some stuff

456
00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:00.279
<v Speaker 2>and make some changes. No, because when it comes to

457
00:21:00.279 --> 00:21:02.000
<v Speaker 2>how this thing is overall view, when it comes to

458
00:21:02.039 --> 00:21:06.599
<v Speaker 2>success or failed, they're succeeding at an unbelievable level. But again,

459
00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:10.240
<v Speaker 2>like the Andy Dalton thing was just weird. So I

460
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:14.279
<v Speaker 2>mean right now three weeks in, yes it's still early,

461
00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:17.400
<v Speaker 2>but like who is good? Like I think the Bills

462
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:19.759
<v Speaker 2>are good. I think the Chiefs are good, But I'm

463
00:21:19.759 --> 00:21:23.240
<v Speaker 2>basing that off of like I'm basing the Chiefs off

464
00:21:23.279 --> 00:21:27.000
<v Speaker 2>of what they've done for years now, Like they could

465
00:21:27.039 --> 00:21:32.440
<v Speaker 2>have easily been zero to two before yesterday. Who they

466
00:21:32.480 --> 00:21:33.160
<v Speaker 2>play yesterday?

467
00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:33.880
<v Speaker 3>No Falcons?

468
00:21:33.920 --> 00:21:35.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah they beat the Falcons. It was last night. Yeah,

469
00:21:35.599 --> 00:21:36.680
<v Speaker 2>that was a game, like you can I'll watched that

470
00:21:36.680 --> 00:21:38.480
<v Speaker 2>game a lot. I don't know how completely forgot about that,

471
00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:40.519
<v Speaker 2>I mean had the best play of the game was

472
00:21:40.599 --> 00:21:43.920
<v Speaker 2>made by the punter for the Chiefs, who made a

473
00:21:43.960 --> 00:21:46.839
<v Speaker 2>miraculous catch because the ball was snapped way too high.

474
00:21:47.160 --> 00:21:50.119
<v Speaker 2>So like if that's the most athletic impressive play you

475
00:21:50.160 --> 00:21:53.119
<v Speaker 2>see in a football game, like from your punter making

476
00:21:53.279 --> 00:21:55.920
<v Speaker 2>you know, a special team's miracle, Like the last night's

477
00:21:55.920 --> 00:21:59.519
<v Speaker 2>game wasn't a good game, and the Chiefs again could

478
00:21:59.519 --> 00:22:01.480
<v Speaker 2>easily be zero and three now that I realized that

479
00:22:01.480 --> 00:22:04.240
<v Speaker 2>that was who the Falcons played last night, Like I

480
00:22:04.240 --> 00:22:06.279
<v Speaker 2>think the Chiefs are going to get the benefit of

481
00:22:06.319 --> 00:22:09.039
<v Speaker 2>the doubt because of pedigree in what they've done overall.

482
00:22:09.599 --> 00:22:11.599
<v Speaker 2>But if you just watch them this year alone, and

483
00:22:11.640 --> 00:22:13.720
<v Speaker 2>you didn't know anything about what they've done previously, you

484
00:22:13.759 --> 00:22:16.359
<v Speaker 2>would not say they're a great team. I mean the

485
00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:17.839
<v Speaker 2>Ravens I thought should have been good. They got their

486
00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:21.799
<v Speaker 2>first win yesterday. Vikings look pretty good, and then the

487
00:22:21.839 --> 00:22:23.599
<v Speaker 2>Texans looked like they were good and then they got

488
00:22:23.599 --> 00:22:27.160
<v Speaker 2>completely demolished. Sam Darnald looks like them right now. No,

489
00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:29.559
<v Speaker 2>no joke. There's a reason they don't give out this

490
00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:32.119
<v Speaker 2>award after three weeks. But right now the NFL, the

491
00:22:32.200 --> 00:22:34.160
<v Speaker 2>MVP is Sam Darnald, a guy who if I told

492
00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:35.440
<v Speaker 2>you two years ago would be out of the league,

493
00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:40.079
<v Speaker 2>you would not have been surprised. I mean the Titans,

494
00:22:40.079 --> 00:22:42.960
<v Speaker 2>Like we know some teams who suck, but like who's

495
00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:47.240
<v Speaker 2>actually good, meaning like good enough to win the whole thing?

496
00:22:47.359 --> 00:22:50.359
<v Speaker 2>Like you're basing it off of teams you've watched for

497
00:22:51.039 --> 00:22:53.160
<v Speaker 2>years that have an identity, that have a you know,

498
00:22:53.200 --> 00:22:56.160
<v Speaker 2>that have a brand about them, Like I think the

499
00:22:56.240 --> 00:22:58.240
<v Speaker 2>Eagles are good, but I don't know like they're performing.

500
00:22:58.400 --> 00:23:00.279
<v Speaker 2>These games have been so ugly. The product it's been

501
00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:02.359
<v Speaker 2>so ugly that, like, I don't really know who's good

502
00:23:02.440 --> 00:23:05.480
<v Speaker 2>or not. I know what I'm not good at, and

503
00:23:05.559 --> 00:23:07.599
<v Speaker 2>that's betting on the NFL. So that's that's one thing

504
00:23:07.640 --> 00:23:09.519
<v Speaker 2>I know for sure. All Right, we'll come back on

505
00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:12.799
<v Speaker 2>the other side and we will let you hear Jeff

506
00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:14.319
<v Speaker 2>brom I mentioned this early. Did not get a chance

507
00:23:14.319 --> 00:23:16.519
<v Speaker 2>to play, but he was asked about that Catholic connection, right,

508
00:23:16.519 --> 00:23:20.160
<v Speaker 2>He's the Brahms are Catholics, and he was recruited by

509
00:23:20.160 --> 00:23:21.599
<v Speaker 2>Notre Dame. I don't know people know that, Like, I

510
00:23:21.599 --> 00:23:23.720
<v Speaker 2>don't think we all remember Brian being recruited by Notre Dame.

511
00:23:24.000 --> 00:23:26.359
<v Speaker 2>But Jeff was also recruited by Notre Dame. And you

512
00:23:26.400 --> 00:23:29.000
<v Speaker 2>know he's now here leading this program Top fifteen about

513
00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:30.640
<v Speaker 2>to go on the road to play Notre Dame. And

514
00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:33.640
<v Speaker 2>he committed to Louisville as the hometown kid before it

515
00:23:33.680 --> 00:23:35.359
<v Speaker 2>was the cool thing to do. He had some big

516
00:23:35.359 --> 00:23:37.440
<v Speaker 2>options as well. So we'll let you hear what he

517
00:23:37.480 --> 00:23:39.079
<v Speaker 2>had to say about his thoughts on Notre Dame and

518
00:23:39.079 --> 00:23:40.599
<v Speaker 2>that kind of stuff. So keep a lock right here.

519
00:23:40.640 --> 00:23:42.400
<v Speaker 2>It's coffee and comany feel about Thort's on Sports Talk

520
00:23:42.400 --> 00:23:47.400
<v Speaker 2>seven ninety we got about twenty five minutes left here

521
00:23:47.519 --> 00:23:49.759
<v Speaker 2>on a on a Monday afternoon. Thank you guys for

522
00:23:49.799 --> 00:23:51.480
<v Speaker 2>hanging out with us. Hopefully you had a good week

523
00:23:51.480 --> 00:23:53.839
<v Speaker 2>and hopefully if you did go to Bourbon to beyond

524
00:23:53.839 --> 00:23:57.559
<v Speaker 2>that you've recovered. I say that like everybody who goes

525
00:23:57.640 --> 00:24:00.279
<v Speaker 2>is like hungover, which a lot of people probably are.

526
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:02.559
<v Speaker 2>But like even if you, I mean that's that's a lot.

527
00:24:02.920 --> 00:24:07.640
<v Speaker 2>Just being outside in heat, if you are hydrating as

528
00:24:07.680 --> 00:24:09.160
<v Speaker 2>best you can, is still going to be something that

529
00:24:09.200 --> 00:24:12.279
<v Speaker 2>will take a lot out of you. And yesterday not

530
00:24:12.359 --> 00:24:15.440
<v Speaker 2>as hot, but it rained like temperature could be perfect.

531
00:24:15.480 --> 00:24:17.920
<v Speaker 2>I think being outside all day at a music festival.

532
00:24:18.599 --> 00:24:20.799
<v Speaker 2>Maybe this is just me getting old and getting washed up.

533
00:24:20.799 --> 00:24:23.000
<v Speaker 2>But like I'm on need a day to recover for.

534
00:24:23.039 --> 00:24:25.119
<v Speaker 3>Me, that's what I'm I mean, I'm going Saturday, might

535
00:24:25.160 --> 00:24:27.400
<v Speaker 3>go Sunday as well. I mean I'm taken off next

536
00:24:27.400 --> 00:24:29.839
<v Speaker 3>Monday because I know that I'm not going to want

537
00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:30.960
<v Speaker 3>I mean not that I wouldn't enjoy it.

538
00:24:30.960 --> 00:24:33.119
<v Speaker 2>Do you need to recover, recharge the battery?

539
00:24:33.279 --> 00:24:34.839
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, exactly took the words out of my mouth.

540
00:24:35.160 --> 00:24:38.960
<v Speaker 2>So so Louisville, Notre Dame this weekend, I gotta be

541
00:24:38.960 --> 00:24:41.640
<v Speaker 2>honest with you, I I've not even just because of

542
00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:45.440
<v Speaker 2>how bad I was at betting this weekend, I just

543
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:47.640
<v Speaker 2>haven't even looked at the spread. I know, at one

544
00:24:47.640 --> 00:24:51.519
<v Speaker 2>point Louisville was three and a half four point underdogs here.

545
00:24:51.519 --> 00:24:54.960
<v Speaker 2>I would imagine that's probably around the same as of now. Yeah,

546
00:24:55.079 --> 00:24:59.240
<v Speaker 2>according to to DraftKings it is. Uh oh, it's moved.

547
00:24:59.559 --> 00:25:00.799
<v Speaker 2>Oh wow. I think it was three and a half

548
00:25:00.839 --> 00:25:03.119
<v Speaker 2>four last week and maybe it's been maybe it's been

549
00:25:03.160 --> 00:25:04.920
<v Speaker 2>here for a while. I just this is the first time,

550
00:25:04.920 --> 00:25:06.799
<v Speaker 2>as we speak, that I've looked at really any lines

551
00:25:07.240 --> 00:25:09.680
<v Speaker 2>for this upcoming week's games. But six and a half,

552
00:25:10.519 --> 00:25:12.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I think Jeff can use that. I mean,

553
00:25:12.839 --> 00:25:17.039
<v Speaker 2>they scored twenty eight points against Miami, Ohio, and they

554
00:25:17.359 --> 00:25:20.240
<v Speaker 2>wad and they lost in Northern Illinois at home, so

555
00:25:20.400 --> 00:25:21.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, not to say Louisville is going to go

556
00:25:21.880 --> 00:25:23.880
<v Speaker 2>in there and dominate them. But I am surprised that

557
00:25:23.880 --> 00:25:27.039
<v Speaker 2>that's where that line is. We'll see, if you know,

558
00:25:27.160 --> 00:25:29.720
<v Speaker 2>if there's much movement from now until kickoff. But yeah,

559
00:25:29.720 --> 00:25:32.960
<v Speaker 2>that that is surprising a little bit for me. Kentucky,

560
00:25:33.160 --> 00:25:35.559
<v Speaker 2>They've got ole miss a tall task going down to

561
00:25:35.640 --> 00:25:37.559
<v Speaker 2>Oxford to take on Lane Kiff and a team that

562
00:25:37.680 --> 00:25:41.440
<v Speaker 2>is certainly looking like a legit National Championship contender. I

563
00:25:41.480 --> 00:25:43.279
<v Speaker 2>mean it's still early for them, and they've not played

564
00:25:43.559 --> 00:25:46.240
<v Speaker 2>any great teams yet, but they are seventeen and a

565
00:25:46.279 --> 00:25:48.480
<v Speaker 2>half point dogs, meaning Marx Troops and his team for

566
00:25:48.519 --> 00:25:53.240
<v Speaker 2>their matchup against the Rebels of Ole Miss. All right.

567
00:25:53.359 --> 00:25:56.960
<v Speaker 2>Jeff brom press conference earlier today, of course, talking about

568
00:25:57.279 --> 00:25:59.240
<v Speaker 2>his team did give us some injury updates. If you

569
00:25:59.319 --> 00:26:02.160
<v Speaker 2>guys are just now joining us, uh, not not ideal

570
00:26:02.279 --> 00:26:04.279
<v Speaker 2>to be in this spot. Quincy Riley one of your

571
00:26:04.279 --> 00:26:08.000
<v Speaker 2>best players, uh, certainly one of your best NFL prospects.

572
00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:13.119
<v Speaker 2>He's questionable. He's game time decision, according to Jeff. And

573
00:26:13.839 --> 00:26:16.200
<v Speaker 2>you also lost Jaden Thompson for the year, which I

574
00:26:16.200 --> 00:26:18.559
<v Speaker 2>can't look at his production and say, hey, this is

575
00:26:18.599 --> 00:26:20.839
<v Speaker 2>a huge issue. But you don't want to lose anybody,

576
00:26:21.079 --> 00:26:22.839
<v Speaker 2>to be honest with you. And you also don't want

577
00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:24.559
<v Speaker 2>to lose a guy who was only starting because he's

578
00:26:24.599 --> 00:26:27.119
<v Speaker 2>replacing somebody who's not played yet this year. So Colin

579
00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:31.079
<v Speaker 2>Lacy also listed as a game time of questionable game time.

580
00:26:31.160 --> 00:26:32.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if it's I don't remember what Jeff said.

581
00:26:32.640 --> 00:26:34.480
<v Speaker 2>It might have been game time decision. But I'm just

582
00:26:34.519 --> 00:26:36.119
<v Speaker 2>gonna assume he's still gonna need a little bit of

583
00:26:36.200 --> 00:26:38.039
<v Speaker 2>time and if he does play, then hell yeah, meaning

584
00:26:38.119 --> 00:26:40.480
<v Speaker 2>meaning Colin Lacey. So it happens. I mean, it's part

585
00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:42.200
<v Speaker 2>of sports man, it's part of life. People get hurt

586
00:26:42.480 --> 00:26:44.119
<v Speaker 2>and you gotta you gotta move, you gotta you gotta

587
00:26:44.160 --> 00:26:47.160
<v Speaker 2>figure out how you're gonna move on without him. I

588
00:26:47.200 --> 00:26:48.799
<v Speaker 2>think it actually would be worse to be in limbo

589
00:26:48.880 --> 00:26:53.039
<v Speaker 2>not knowing but game time decision. Like I'm I don't

590
00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:55.480
<v Speaker 2>want to call anybody a liar, but like I don't

591
00:26:55.480 --> 00:26:57.680
<v Speaker 2>know if I believe that many game time decisions, like

592
00:26:57.759 --> 00:27:02.200
<v Speaker 2>game time decision as of now, I think is realistic.

593
00:27:02.519 --> 00:27:04.160
<v Speaker 2>But like when you get to Wednesday or Thursday, like

594
00:27:04.319 --> 00:27:07.319
<v Speaker 2>you know, you have a better idea if they're going

595
00:27:07.319 --> 00:27:09.839
<v Speaker 2>to play or not. So both those guys play Lacey

596
00:27:09.920 --> 00:27:14.680
<v Speaker 2>and and Quincy Riley. But we shall see. But one

597
00:27:14.720 --> 00:27:16.119
<v Speaker 2>of the things Jeff was asked about when it comes

598
00:27:16.119 --> 00:27:20.759
<v Speaker 2>to Notre Dame was the recruitment that went on not

599
00:27:20.799 --> 00:27:23.680
<v Speaker 2>only when Brian played, because Brian, of course was recruited

600
00:27:23.680 --> 00:27:25.599
<v Speaker 2>by Notre Dame, and I believe it was Notre Dame

601
00:27:25.640 --> 00:27:28.200
<v Speaker 2>in Tennessee that were the biggest threats to lose the

602
00:27:28.240 --> 00:27:31.759
<v Speaker 2>hometown star and he decided to play for Louisville, which

603
00:27:32.039 --> 00:27:34.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, even when Brian did it, let's be real,

604
00:27:34.039 --> 00:27:35.799
<v Speaker 2>that was a big deal. Like it wasn't you know.

605
00:27:36.640 --> 00:27:38.279
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it made sense that he did it because

606
00:27:38.319 --> 00:27:40.400
<v Speaker 2>he's a part of the first family of Louisville football.

607
00:27:40.440 --> 00:27:42.720
<v Speaker 2>But like if he said, yeah, I'm gonna go play

608
00:27:42.720 --> 00:27:44.759
<v Speaker 2>for Notre Dame or Tennessee at that time in two

609
00:27:44.759 --> 00:27:48.799
<v Speaker 2>thousand and three, I think nobody would have would have been,

610
00:27:48.839 --> 00:27:52.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, would have been like stunned. I think you

611
00:27:53.000 --> 00:27:54.640
<v Speaker 2>knew that if you get Like, let's be real, when

612
00:27:54.640 --> 00:27:57.359
<v Speaker 2>you got Brian Brohm to commit to you, when he

613
00:27:57.400 --> 00:28:00.759
<v Speaker 2>was a phenom at Trinity High School, one of the

614
00:28:00.759 --> 00:28:03.160
<v Speaker 2>best quarterbacks in the country, like you knew you didn't

615
00:28:03.160 --> 00:28:06.599
<v Speaker 2>get him because Louisville was a better program than Tennessee

616
00:28:06.720 --> 00:28:09.680
<v Speaker 2>or Notre Dame. You know, you got him because he's

617
00:28:09.720 --> 00:28:13.319
<v Speaker 2>from here. He's I mean, he's he's a brom It's

618
00:28:13.319 --> 00:28:16.359
<v Speaker 2>in his blood, like the bron family. They are Louisville football.

619
00:28:16.599 --> 00:28:18.720
<v Speaker 2>Hence the reason why Jeff came back when he was

620
00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:20.359
<v Speaker 2>already in a pretty good spot at Purdue making a

621
00:28:20.359 --> 00:28:23.759
<v Speaker 2>lot of money. So Brian's recruitment was pretty well known.

622
00:28:23.799 --> 00:28:25.519
<v Speaker 2>But you know, let's go back in time. I mean,

623
00:28:26.279 --> 00:28:29.440
<v Speaker 2>when Jeff Brohm was coming out of high school, he

624
00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:32.279
<v Speaker 2>was recruited at a pretty high level the recruiting services.

625
00:28:32.319 --> 00:28:34.200
<v Speaker 2>Not to make Jeff sound like an old grandpa, but like,

626
00:28:34.519 --> 00:28:36.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, it wasn't. It wasn't then what it is

627
00:28:36.680 --> 00:28:39.599
<v Speaker 2>now as far as like online four or five star,

628
00:28:39.799 --> 00:28:41.599
<v Speaker 2>like you were recruited and it was well known if

629
00:28:41.640 --> 00:28:45.400
<v Speaker 2>you were a big time recruit. But Jeff, I mean

630
00:28:45.640 --> 00:28:48.440
<v Speaker 2>he graduated from Trinity in nineteen eighty eight, eighty nine,

631
00:28:48.519 --> 00:28:51.160
<v Speaker 2>I think it was eighty nine maybe at that time.

632
00:28:51.720 --> 00:28:55.319
<v Speaker 2>And you know, like at that time, Louisville football, I mean,

633
00:28:55.319 --> 00:28:58.640
<v Speaker 2>they weren't in a great spot. I mean, they weren't

634
00:28:58.680 --> 00:29:01.319
<v Speaker 2>the worst team in the world. But again another situation

635
00:29:01.359 --> 00:29:03.680
<v Speaker 2>where Jeff Brohm decided to go to Louisville because he

636
00:29:03.759 --> 00:29:07.200
<v Speaker 2>is Louisville, And it wasn't because he picked the better program.

637
00:29:07.240 --> 00:29:08.920
<v Speaker 2>He picked the hometown team that he wanted to go

638
00:29:09.680 --> 00:29:11.680
<v Speaker 2>help win, and he did exactly that. Now he's coaching him.

639
00:29:11.720 --> 00:29:13.440
<v Speaker 2>So he talked a little bit a little a little

640
00:29:13.440 --> 00:29:16.079
<v Speaker 2>bit about that situation at his press conference earlier today,

641
00:29:16.079 --> 00:29:16.880
<v Speaker 2>and here's what he had to say.

642
00:29:18.680 --> 00:29:21.319
<v Speaker 4>No, they did. They recruited me a little bit later

643
00:29:21.319 --> 00:29:23.720
<v Speaker 4>in the process. They had signed Rick Meyer at the time,

644
00:29:23.839 --> 00:29:26.519
<v Speaker 4>who was only raded the number one quarterback in the country.

645
00:29:28.279 --> 00:29:30.319
<v Speaker 4>So when they got down to me, even though they

646
00:29:30.319 --> 00:29:33.079
<v Speaker 4>still wanted me, you know, I would rather go somewhere

647
00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:35.359
<v Speaker 4>and play and not have to fight that battle. And

648
00:29:36.119 --> 00:29:38.319
<v Speaker 4>I can recognize town as well and knew they that

649
00:29:38.359 --> 00:29:40.960
<v Speaker 4>they already had really the guy they wanted. And then

650
00:29:40.960 --> 00:29:45.519
<v Speaker 4>of course with Brian, he was heavily, heavily recruited by him,

651
00:29:45.799 --> 00:29:48.839
<v Speaker 4>and uh, you know, maybe at the time the offensive

652
00:29:48.839 --> 00:29:51.799
<v Speaker 4>structure maybe didn't quite fit exactly what he was looking for.

653
00:29:53.440 --> 00:29:56.319
<v Speaker 4>But no, I have a great respect for their program

654
00:29:56.440 --> 00:29:59.279
<v Speaker 4>and the history and tradition of Notre Dame. And you know,

655
00:29:59.319 --> 00:30:01.759
<v Speaker 4>for our chance, the chance for our team to go

656
00:30:01.880 --> 00:30:04.000
<v Speaker 4>up and play in that atmosphere and our fans to

657
00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:06.680
<v Speaker 4>go up again, I know what happened years ago for him,

658
00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:11.000
<v Speaker 4>and they found a way with you know, to pull

659
00:30:11.039 --> 00:30:13.880
<v Speaker 4>out the win. You know, it'll be a great opportunity.

660
00:30:13.880 --> 00:30:16.519
<v Speaker 4>So we're looking forward to it. This is big time

661
00:30:16.559 --> 00:30:19.240
<v Speaker 4>football against one of the nation's best every year and

662
00:30:19.240 --> 00:30:22.039
<v Speaker 4>and once again this year they're they're they're extremely talented

663
00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:24.920
<v Speaker 4>and uh uh and one of the nation's best.

664
00:30:25.799 --> 00:30:28.960
<v Speaker 2>So hearing him talk about that, it just takes me

665
00:30:29.039 --> 00:30:31.839
<v Speaker 2>back to you know, I don't remember Jeff's playing days,

666
00:30:31.839 --> 00:30:33.960
<v Speaker 2>because you know, he's a lot older than I am,

667
00:30:34.400 --> 00:30:36.559
<v Speaker 2>but I always knew the story of him being a

668
00:30:36.599 --> 00:30:39.440
<v Speaker 2>hometown guy who came to Louisville and was a great player.

669
00:30:39.480 --> 00:30:41.160
<v Speaker 2>And then of course you know Brian, Brian's a little

670
00:30:41.160 --> 00:30:42.680
<v Speaker 2>bit younger than me, a little bit older than me,

671
00:30:43.880 --> 00:30:48.400
<v Speaker 2>And nobody's got to be happier about Louisville football and

672
00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:51.160
<v Speaker 2>everything in the last you know year and some change

673
00:30:51.640 --> 00:30:55.400
<v Speaker 2>than Oscar Brown, Jeff's dad, who in you know, Brian's dad,

674
00:30:55.400 --> 00:30:58.720
<v Speaker 2>who have have I mean, he's got to be mean.

675
00:30:58.880 --> 00:31:01.559
<v Speaker 2>We're all happy that not only is Louisville being led

676
00:31:01.559 --> 00:31:05.160
<v Speaker 2>by one of their own, they're successful. They're top fifteen

677
00:31:05.200 --> 00:31:07.799
<v Speaker 2>team like we now can go look at this matchup

678
00:31:07.839 --> 00:31:09.240
<v Speaker 2>against Notre Dame and even if they didn't lose to

679
00:31:09.279 --> 00:31:12.200
<v Speaker 2>Northern Illinois, like Louisll football can feel a way about

680
00:31:12.279 --> 00:31:14.799
<v Speaker 2>themselves because of the confidence that we have in our

681
00:31:14.799 --> 00:31:18.279
<v Speaker 2>head coach. So It's like it's the best of both worlds.

682
00:31:18.359 --> 00:31:22.400
<v Speaker 2>You're winning, you're successful. People respect Bram as a coach

683
00:31:22.440 --> 00:31:24.079
<v Speaker 2>more than they did the previous guy that was here.

684
00:31:25.519 --> 00:31:28.119
<v Speaker 2>And also, you know he gets us, right, he's one

685
00:31:28.160 --> 00:31:31.079
<v Speaker 2>of us. So you know, I'm not telling you anything

686
00:31:31.119 --> 00:31:34.119
<v Speaker 2>you didn't already know, but just hearing that, you know,

687
00:31:34.359 --> 00:31:37.119
<v Speaker 2>Oscar brom got to be the happiest guy out there

688
00:31:37.160 --> 00:31:40.319
<v Speaker 2>considering you know, he's the leader of the first family

689
00:31:40.319 --> 00:31:43.599
<v Speaker 2>of louisvill football, and he has got three sons who

690
00:31:43.599 --> 00:31:46.680
<v Speaker 2>all played here and had success, and now you got

691
00:31:46.920 --> 00:31:49.000
<v Speaker 2>three of them on the staff and they've got a

692
00:31:49.039 --> 00:31:52.039
<v Speaker 2>chance to go knock off Notre Dame. Imagine telling Oscar

693
00:31:52.119 --> 00:31:55.680
<v Speaker 2>Brohm in I don't know whatever year it was that

694
00:31:56.000 --> 00:32:00.920
<v Speaker 2>Brian or that Jeff was being recruited, because I'm you know,

695
00:32:01.119 --> 00:32:03.680
<v Speaker 2>obviously Oscar wanted him to mean, Oscar was probably the

696
00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:05.880
<v Speaker 2>biggest factor maybe and why Jeff decided to go play

697
00:32:06.000 --> 00:32:08.880
<v Speaker 2>for coach Tellenburger, right, But imagine telling him at that time,

698
00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:11.400
<v Speaker 2>here's how it's gonna work out. Jeff's gonna go on

699
00:32:11.440 --> 00:32:13.119
<v Speaker 2>to be a great quarterback there. Greg is gonna be

700
00:32:13.119 --> 00:32:16.440
<v Speaker 2>a receiver have some success as well. Certainly be a factor,

701
00:32:17.559 --> 00:32:19.720
<v Speaker 2>and then Brian's gonna be a phenom. Jeff's gonna be

702
00:32:19.759 --> 00:32:22.599
<v Speaker 2>leading the offense, calling the plays for Bobby Patrino at

703
00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:24.359
<v Speaker 2>that time. He won't know Boby Patrino is then, but

704
00:32:24.920 --> 00:32:26.079
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna be able to coach.

705
00:32:27.480 --> 00:32:27.519
<v Speaker 1>You.

706
00:32:27.680 --> 00:32:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, your son's gonna be the offensive coordinator while your

707
00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:35.880
<v Speaker 2>phenom baby of the family picks Louisville over the likes

708
00:32:35.880 --> 00:32:38.720
<v Speaker 2>of Notre Dame in Tennessee and other big time schools too.

709
00:32:38.839 --> 00:32:40.279
<v Speaker 2>And then he's gonna go on and have success and

710
00:32:40.319 --> 00:32:43.720
<v Speaker 2>have Louisville with their first ever BCS Bowl victory in

711
00:32:43.720 --> 00:32:45.680
<v Speaker 2>two thousand and seven, knocking off Wake Forest in the

712
00:32:45.680 --> 00:32:48.279
<v Speaker 2>Orange Bowl. And then he's gonna be drafted in the NFL,

713
00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:51.640
<v Speaker 2>and then Jeff's gonna go on to be a head coach.

714
00:32:51.920 --> 00:32:54.640
<v Speaker 2>Brian's gonna have an NFL career, have a career in

715
00:32:54.680 --> 00:32:58.279
<v Speaker 2>the CFL, and then your son, the oldest is going

716
00:32:58.319 --> 00:33:01.720
<v Speaker 2>to get an opportunity to go to go coach at Purdue,

717
00:33:02.680 --> 00:33:04.640
<v Speaker 2>and then he's not going to be able to leave.

718
00:33:05.000 --> 00:33:06.920
<v Speaker 2>He didn't, He didn't want to. He couldn't do it.

719
00:33:06.960 --> 00:33:08.839
<v Speaker 2>He couldn't he you know, the portal didn't exist. He

720
00:33:08.920 --> 00:33:11.400
<v Speaker 2>knew that he would be basically abandoning and most coaches

721
00:33:11.440 --> 00:33:12.920
<v Speaker 2>do it, by the way, and don't don't lose us

722
00:33:12.960 --> 00:33:14.960
<v Speaker 2>wink asleep about it, but he did. He did not

723
00:33:15.039 --> 00:33:17.519
<v Speaker 2>want to abandon the guys that he convinced to come

724
00:33:17.519 --> 00:33:19.440
<v Speaker 2>play for him at Purdue. So he turned us down

725
00:33:19.480 --> 00:33:21.400
<v Speaker 2>the first time just because he couldn't do it. He

726
00:33:21.480 --> 00:33:24.279
<v Speaker 2>felt it would be betraying those guys, and most coaches

727
00:33:24.279 --> 00:33:27.559
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't do that, by the way. Well, then opportunity is

728
00:33:27.559 --> 00:33:29.839
<v Speaker 2>going to come back around four years later and he's

729
00:33:29.880 --> 00:33:31.839
<v Speaker 2>going to be the head coach and he's going to

730
00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:34.680
<v Speaker 2>take the team to Notre Dame again. Imagine imagine telling

731
00:33:34.680 --> 00:33:38.400
<v Speaker 2>Oscar Brown all of this back in the eighties, like

732
00:33:39.279 --> 00:33:41.319
<v Speaker 2>that's a cool moment, Like, I mean, that's like so again,

733
00:33:41.599 --> 00:33:43.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure he I mean, I'm sure if he's listening,

734
00:33:43.799 --> 00:33:45.599
<v Speaker 2>and I doubt that he is, but I mean, Oscar

00:33:45.680 --> 00:33:47.559
<v Speaker 2>knows everything I'm saying, Like he's probably thinking about it

736
00:33:47.559 --> 00:33:49.160
<v Speaker 2>every single day. That guy's got to be gott to

737

00:33:53.880 --> 00:33:56.720
<v Speaker 2>I got a long way to go before I even

00:33:56.759 --> 00:33:58.880
<v Speaker 2>start thinking about what they're gonna do later in life.

741
00:33:58.880 --> 00:34:00.599
<v Speaker 2>But like that's cool as hell as a dad, So

<v Speaker 2>shout out to Oscar Brom. All right, quick break, we'll

744
00:34:05.839 --> 00:34:08.800
<v Speaker 2>We did talk about just how insane the you know,

745
00:34:08.840 --> 00:34:10.400
<v Speaker 2>the results have been up to this point. We don't

746
00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:11.760
<v Speaker 2>know who's good who's not. But we have a couple

00:34:34.599 --> 00:34:36.719
<v Speaker 2>and I think there's some other apps. Maybe I'm not sure,

756
00:34:36.719 --> 00:34:38.840
<v Speaker 2>but I recommend you do it on the on the

757
00:34:38.880 --> 00:34:41.559
<v Speaker 2>Apple podcast app or or the iart radio app.

758
00:34:41.760 --> 00:34:41.960
<v Speaker 3>A R.

759
00:34:42.000 --> 00:34:44.679
<v Speaker 2>Let's talk about the Jefferson Animal Hospital, shall we. They

760
00:34:44.679 --> 00:34:46.760
<v Speaker 2>have been around for a long time, forty four years

761
00:34:46.760 --> 00:34:51.079
<v Speaker 2>to be exact, since nineteen eighty. The Jefferson Animal Hospital

762
00:34:51.599 --> 00:34:54.320
<v Speaker 2>has been opened twenty four hours a day, including all holidays,

763
00:34:54.480 --> 00:34:57.960
<v Speaker 2>with a doctor on site every night, including Christmas. That's

764
00:34:57.960 --> 00:35:01.079
<v Speaker 2>because they care about the Louisville community. Any day, any shift.

765
00:35:01.440 --> 00:35:04.559
<v Speaker 2>Jefferson Animal Hospitals dedicated doctors and staff will have your

766
00:35:04.599 --> 00:35:06.639
<v Speaker 2>pets covered in the case of an emergency, so keep

767
00:35:06.679 --> 00:35:08.639
<v Speaker 2>that in mind. Nobody's around. I mean, maybe some people

768
00:35:08.679 --> 00:35:10.960
<v Speaker 2>do live their life like always thinking about what they

769
00:35:10.960 --> 00:35:15.280
<v Speaker 2>would do if certain emergency situations presented themselves. But I

770
00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:17.280
<v Speaker 2>know I don't live like that. But now I know,

771
00:35:17.519 --> 00:35:19.840
<v Speaker 2>if something was to happen with my pet, my dog Moe,

772
00:35:20.199 --> 00:35:23.320
<v Speaker 2>We're going to Jefferson Animal Hospital. But you don't have

773
00:35:23.360 --> 00:35:25.119
<v Speaker 2>to go there just because because of an emergency. You

774
00:35:25.159 --> 00:35:27.280
<v Speaker 2>can schedule an appointment day or night, walk right in.

775
00:35:27.880 --> 00:35:29.920
<v Speaker 2>They'll be happy to see you. Open twenty four hours. Again,

776
00:35:29.920 --> 00:35:33.280
<v Speaker 2>it's Jeffersonnimal Hospital on outer Loop Fibo two nine hundred

777
00:35:33.320 --> 00:35:37.159
<v Speaker 2>pets or visit Jefferson Vets dot com. All right, so

778
00:35:38.400 --> 00:35:40.840
<v Speaker 2>tonight's NFL matchups again. I don't I don't. I mean,

779
00:35:41.119 --> 00:35:44.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna watch, but I have no clue what's gonna happen.

780
00:35:44.440 --> 00:35:47.199
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I still feel like that the Bengals are

781
00:35:47.199 --> 00:35:48.639
<v Speaker 2>a better team than they're gonna win, But like, if

782
00:35:48.639 --> 00:35:51.280
<v Speaker 2>they lose, can anybody say that they're surprised? I mean,

783
00:35:51.599 --> 00:35:54.039
<v Speaker 2>they haven't won a game yet this year. Now the

784
00:35:54.079 --> 00:35:56.760
<v Speaker 2>Commanders aren't very good either, but uh yeah, that's one

785
00:35:56.800 --> 00:35:59.920
<v Speaker 2>that I mean, again, I'm gonna watch, but really, for me,

786
00:36:00.039 --> 00:36:02.559
<v Speaker 2>it's the intrigued to see. Okay, does Cincinnati finally get

787
00:36:02.559 --> 00:36:04.559
<v Speaker 2>a win? Because you can start slow, but like when

788
00:36:04.559 --> 00:36:06.119
<v Speaker 2>you're in a really good division and you know other

789
00:36:06.119 --> 00:36:09.679
<v Speaker 2>teams are seemingly in a good spot, like, you can't

790
00:36:09.719 --> 00:36:13.320
<v Speaker 2>start too slow. So a major win needed tonight for

791
00:36:13.719 --> 00:36:16.440
<v Speaker 2>the Bengals. And then the other game is the Jaguars

792
00:36:16.440 --> 00:36:18.800
<v Speaker 2>and the Bills. I'm surprised Buffalo is not a bigger

793
00:36:18.800 --> 00:36:23.840
<v Speaker 2>favorite here, but again, the Bills getting blown out by

794
00:36:23.880 --> 00:36:26.280
<v Speaker 2>the Jaguars, can we really say that'd be that big

795
00:36:26.320 --> 00:36:28.519
<v Speaker 2>of a shot considering these results that we have so

796
00:36:28.559 --> 00:36:30.400
<v Speaker 2>far in the NFL right now? I mean, I don't

797
00:36:30.440 --> 00:36:33.320
<v Speaker 2>expect that to happen, but again, expect the unexpected at

798
00:36:33.320 --> 00:36:36.360
<v Speaker 2>this point. How does it feel to be an elite

799
00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:39.199
<v Speaker 2>company as an Indiana football fan? John?

800
00:36:39.639 --> 00:36:41.159
<v Speaker 3>And what do you mean an elite company.

801
00:36:41.280 --> 00:36:43.480
<v Speaker 2>I want to tell you this might blow your mind.

802
00:36:43.519 --> 00:36:49.719
<v Speaker 2>Go ahead, So right now, there are only three teams

803
00:36:50.079 --> 00:36:52.440
<v Speaker 2>that have not turned the ball over yet in college football.

804
00:36:52.639 --> 00:36:54.440
<v Speaker 3>Wow, I knew Indiana was one of them. I didn't

805
00:36:54.440 --> 00:36:55.280
<v Speaker 3>know there was only three.

806
00:36:55.840 --> 00:36:59.400
<v Speaker 2>Louisville in Georgia. Look at that, I mean, and that's

807
00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:00.920
<v Speaker 2>I mean, that makes since because those are the three

808
00:37:00.960 --> 00:37:02.880
<v Speaker 2>best programs in college footballright now. Absolute, you know what

809
00:37:02.880 --> 00:37:04.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean. Like, that's not even request. Yeah, that's just

810
00:37:04.519 --> 00:37:07.960
<v Speaker 2>that's just how it works, all right. So a couple

811
00:37:08.000 --> 00:37:11.400
<v Speaker 2>of people have sent in the the on Twitter. Somebody

812
00:37:11.519 --> 00:37:13.960
<v Speaker 2>sent it to me yesterday and I did see it

813
00:37:14.039 --> 00:37:16.480
<v Speaker 2>in real time. But yes, the pick six from Will

814
00:37:16.519 --> 00:37:19.679
<v Speaker 2>Levis or that jay R Alexander collected was great. I mean,

815
00:37:19.840 --> 00:37:21.400
<v Speaker 2>I wish Louis would have beat Will Levis when he

816
00:37:21.400 --> 00:37:25.400
<v Speaker 2>played here at Kentucky. But yeah, I mean he's throwing

817
00:37:25.440 --> 00:37:28.480
<v Speaker 2>out interceptions left and right. It seems he's just given

818
00:37:28.519 --> 00:37:29.880
<v Speaker 2>the ball up. So it's nice to see one of

819
00:37:29.880 --> 00:37:32.320
<v Speaker 2>those turnovers go to a little of a cardinal who

820
00:37:32.360 --> 00:37:34.360
<v Speaker 2>was able to turn it return it for a touchdown.

821
00:37:34.360 --> 00:37:36.440
<v Speaker 2>I believe I believe JayR said this after the game

822
00:37:36.760 --> 00:37:38.559
<v Speaker 2>that that was his first pick six ever as a

823
00:37:38.559 --> 00:37:41.480
<v Speaker 2>football player, which sounds crazy for a guy who's an

824
00:37:41.480 --> 00:37:45.639
<v Speaker 2>elite defensive back in the NFL, But like those are rare.

825
00:37:45.719 --> 00:37:48.719
<v Speaker 2>Pick sixes don't happen that often. So shout out to

826
00:37:48.760 --> 00:37:52.599
<v Speaker 2>Jaire and will Levis. I mean, he really showed some

827
00:37:52.639 --> 00:37:55.119
<v Speaker 2>toughness last year and looked like he was going to

828
00:37:55.159 --> 00:37:58.960
<v Speaker 2>be the guy. But the Tennessee Titans clearly they made

829
00:37:58.960 --> 00:38:01.639
<v Speaker 2>the decision that he is there. They drafted him, and

830
00:38:01.679 --> 00:38:03.280
<v Speaker 2>then last year he won the job and they got

831
00:38:03.360 --> 00:38:05.400
<v Speaker 2>rid of Milik Willis, who's now winning in Green Bay.

832
00:38:05.960 --> 00:38:09.679
<v Speaker 2>Whereas Will Evis, I mean, that guy in each game

833
00:38:09.719 --> 00:38:12.679
<v Speaker 2>this year has made I mean, I think he now

834
00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:17.079
<v Speaker 2>has done the dumbest things each week in the NFL.

835
00:38:17.199 --> 00:38:19.679
<v Speaker 2>Each three weeks we've had of NFL football, you go

836
00:38:19.719 --> 00:38:21.880
<v Speaker 2>out and look at the most head scratching decision made

837
00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:24.440
<v Speaker 2>in any game by any player, any position. He's got

838
00:38:24.440 --> 00:38:27.800
<v Speaker 2>all three of them. It's crazy, and you know, as

839
00:38:27.800 --> 00:38:30.920
<v Speaker 2>a Colts fan and a Louisville fan, you'll love to

840
00:38:30.920 --> 00:38:33.320
<v Speaker 2>see it. I do, at least. All Right, we're out

841
00:38:33.360 --> 00:38:35.559
<v Speaker 2>of time. Enjoy your evening. We're back at it tomorrow

842
00:38:36.400 --> 00:38:39.679
<v Speaker 2>right here on Sports Talk seven to ninety
