Com got a great segment for you, little Cougar Byte

16
00:00:46,719 --> 00:00:51,479
here on your UTI ESPN Radio network. The Barstool Team,

17
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:56,799
Big cat Stool Presidente. Their analysts are delving into the

18
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,880
BYU Iowa State game. And one of the things that

19
00:01:01,479 --> 00:01:05,840
doesn't surprise me is I've talked about this throughout the year,

20
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,280
from Big twelve media days to present days, that national

21
00:01:10,439 --> 00:01:15,480
media just does not want to believe what their eyes

22
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:20,519
are seeing. In relation to BYU. BYU has not arrived yet.

23
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,280
BYU is not a perennial Top twenty five team. BYU

24
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,239
doesn't have the talent, doesn't have the skill positions, don't

25
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,519
have the coaching, doesn't have the resources to be an

26
00:01:30,599 --> 00:01:35,519
elite to great football team. It's they haven't beat anybody yet.

27
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:41,879
It's the same old adage, the same old rhetoric. They

28
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,439
are not favored in this game. It is what it is.

29
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:52,040
And barstool is struggling with this. Okay, stool presidente who

30
00:01:52,079 --> 00:01:54,719
was there, David Portnoy in Provole, he saw it. He

31
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,079
didn't pick the Cougars versus the Utes, and he's not

32
00:01:57,239 --> 00:02:02,319
picking the Cougars versus Iowa date. He doesn't believe what

33
00:02:02,359 --> 00:02:04,719
his eyes are telling him for whatever reason.

34
00:02:04,799 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 3: Let's listen in in the Cougar Beat.

35
00:02:06,239 --> 00:02:08,680

Speaker 3: All right, let's get into it.

57
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 2: Barstool Sports pontificating on the BYU Iowa State matchup and

58
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,599
how they're gonna bet in this game.

59
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:24,439
Speaker 3: Talk about BYU.

60
00:03:24,479 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 4: They're also seven to zero number eleven BYU at Iowa

61
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:29,919
State Iowa State minus two and a half. The over

62
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,360
under forty eight and a half. Dan, we saw what

63
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,759
happened with the Holy War last week, an incredible scene.

64
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,120
Everything looked at BYU quietly. I mean, moving along in

65
00:03:38,159 --> 00:03:40,080
this conference, at the top of the conference right now.

66
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,159
This is a big game though, for the Big twelve.

67
00:03:42,319 --> 00:03:44,159
Speaker 5: Yeah, taking i BYU last week.

68
00:03:44,199 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 3: I love Iowa State. This week it's perfect spot. You

69
00:03:46,639 --> 00:03:47,560
just got to take the spot.

70
00:03:47,599 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 5: Even if you don't think Iowa State's very good, which

71
00:03:49,879 --> 00:03:53,680
I don't really think they're very good. BYU off a huge,

72
00:03:53,759 --> 00:03:56,479
huge win against their biggest rival, going on the road

73
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,960
against the unranked Iowa State team that has looked like

74
00:03:59,000 --> 00:03:59,680
trash at times.

75
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 3: This shar that you know, one week zero.

76
00:04:02,319 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 5: And everyone thought it was a big win in Kansas State. Sucks,

77
00:04:04,639 --> 00:04:05,199
doesn't matter.

78
00:04:05,439 --> 00:04:06,319
Speaker 3: Give me Iowa State.

79
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, uh, just just real quick, guys, Like he's giving

80
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:19,240
all these these justifications, right, Iowa States look like crap

81
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:19,600
this year.

82
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,519
Speaker 3: I'm like, I don't think they've looked like crap, but.

83
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:24,759
Speaker 2: Whatever I mean, they've gotten They've lost two games, okay,

84
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:31,879
one score games anyway, hangover conversation, right, b what he's

85
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:34,399
coming off the Robber Game, the Holy War.

86
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 3: Et cetera.

87
00:04:35,079 --> 00:04:37,639
Speaker 6: I don't is that even a real thing other than

88
00:04:37,759 --> 00:04:40,600
last year, like twenty twenty one, we followed up Utah

89
00:04:40,639 --> 00:04:43,399
with a win. Yeah, most of the time we play Utah,

90
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:44,800
we actually follow up with it.

91
00:04:44,959 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 7: I think it's a football cliche. It's a football TV

92
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:48,959
talking head cliche.

93
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 2: It's a low hanging fruit cliche. Just like when you

94
00:04:52,319 --> 00:04:54,560
step up to a mic in a pregame show and

95
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,879
you're like, a turnover battles should determined whether or not

96
00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:58,319
you game.

97
00:04:58,439 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 3: Gon, It'll be won or lost.

98
00:05:00,079 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 2: It shouldn't be wonder lotched in the trenches in the

99
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:03,720
turnover battle.

100
00:05:03,959 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 3: Let me say that what was his name? It was?

101
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 6: He was that Oh, he was a great basketball player.

102
00:05:09,079 --> 00:05:11,040
He worked for ESPN a while. He died a couple

103
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:12,279
of years ago, Bill Walton.

104
00:05:12,639 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I mean like he had a little bit

105
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:15,720
of it that this is like.

106
00:05:18,519 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 3: Anyway, but like.

107
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 2: You walk through this right and you're like, okay, like

108
00:05:23,439 --> 00:05:28,279
this is these are these are cliches. It's low hanging fruit.

109
00:05:28,439 --> 00:05:31,879
And I don't think they really know what they're talking

110
00:05:31,879 --> 00:05:32,680
about here anyway.

111
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 7: Just wanted like, how can you say even if you

112
00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:37,879
don't think they're that good. I don't think they're that good,

113
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,319
but I'm gonna take him anyway, because here's the deal.

114
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,759
Speaker 3: It's not as though, like because you're.

115
00:05:42,639 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 7: Picking Iowa State, Okay, i Alowa State is favored, but

116
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:46,600
they're only favored by two and a half.

117
00:05:46,639 --> 00:05:47,439
Speaker 3: So even if.

118
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 7: We're taking the wins and losses out of it and

119
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,759
we're simply just talking the betting, that also doesn't make

120
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,800
me feel that confident either. But he feels pretty confident,

121
00:05:55,879 --> 00:05:58,199
even saying, yeah, I don't know if you think they're

122
00:05:58,240 --> 00:05:59,959
that good. I don't think they're that good either. Okay,

123
00:06:00,079 --> 00:06:01,920
then how bad do you think BYU is?

124
00:06:01,959 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying, Like they don't they're not buying Brigham,

125
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:05,639
let's continue.

126
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,480
Speaker 8: I think I will believe in BYU when I'm forced

127
00:06:09,519 --> 00:06:11,519
to a gunpoint. I know they won last week, and

128
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,399
I know they were great. They had a very good

129
00:06:13,439 --> 00:06:16,120
record last year and they were quietly undefeated going into BYU.

130
00:06:16,199 --> 00:06:18,879
They beat beat into Utah, they beat Utah, and now

131
00:06:18,879 --> 00:06:21,160
they're up to number eleven. I just still just don't

132
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,240
believe in this team. Iowa State at home, Iowa State

133
00:06:24,319 --> 00:06:26,199
season on the line, it's Iowa State, Dave.

134
00:06:27,079 --> 00:06:31,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, So at gunpoint you got to force him.

135
00:06:31,879 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 3: He will not believe. I don't.

136
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 2: I don't know if there's a game on this schedule

137
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,120
after by you. Part of it has to do with

138
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,560
the margin of victory. This is my theory. Yeah, you

139
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,519
don't necessarily have a convincing win and you've won the

140
00:06:45,639 --> 00:06:49,279
only convincing win that you got maybe last year, like

141
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:53,079
truly convinced, was in the Alimo Bole versus Colorado, which.

142
00:06:52,879 --> 00:06:55,160
Speaker 3: No one picked you anyway, no one wanted you anyway.

143
00:06:55,319 --> 00:06:59,199
Speaker 2: They just wanted to do her and Pravish and prime

144
00:06:59,319 --> 00:07:01,759
and all the things. But then they're like, well, but

145
00:07:01,879 --> 00:07:04,279
like they didn't really want to be there, Like Shudor

146
00:07:04,519 --> 00:07:07,839
was off gallivanting and Travis was gallivanting, and no one

147
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,000
was practicing, and it just wasn't a big deal anyway.

148
00:07:11,439 --> 00:07:14,680
It was it was we were force fed the entertainment

149
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,759
of the Alamo Bile anyway. That's why I think it's

150
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,519
the margin. It's the form and fashion which BYU wins

151
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:27,639
typically it's pretty gritty, right, It's not these dominating wins

152
00:07:28,079 --> 00:07:32,240
that are exclamation points what one score games. That's what

153
00:07:32,279 --> 00:07:35,319
it was last year, even in two thousand and twenty

154
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:40,199
three when you when you lost to top twenty five teams, right,

155
00:07:40,319 --> 00:07:42,600
and you got blown out a lot, right, you got

156
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,199
blown out a lot in twenty twenty three, but then

157
00:07:45,399 --> 00:07:48,480
when you were competitive. This is these one score games, right,

158
00:07:48,519 --> 00:07:51,920
and so there's something there with the margin of victory that.

159
00:07:51,879 --> 00:07:54,199
Speaker 3: Doesn't allow for them to buy into Brigham.

160
00:07:54,199 --> 00:07:57,759
Speaker 7: But Shahan made this point yesterday on this show, which

161
00:07:57,759 --> 00:08:00,959
he was like, you got to understand, like they're dominating

162
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:05,240
time of possession. So BYU, while they are not necessarily

163
00:08:05,279 --> 00:08:09,040
blowing teams out, that's not necessarily their mo o. And

164
00:08:09,079 --> 00:08:10,720
part of it is because they haven't really played a

165
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,360
really tough schedule. But the other piece of that is

166
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,920
that's just not what they're trying to do to you.

167
00:08:15,959 --> 00:08:20,399
They're not trying to score seventy five yard bombs every

168
00:08:20,519 --> 00:08:24,199
drive like they are trying to systematically and slowly wear

169
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,600
you down. Dominate time of possession. They're one of the

170
00:08:26,639 --> 00:08:29,560
best time of possession teams in the country. They're not.

171
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:31,879
So I don't know, and I agree with you. I

172
00:08:31,879 --> 00:08:34,360
think that's why they feel this way. But if you

173
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,559
want to be real about it, Ben, if you really

174
00:08:36,639 --> 00:08:39,080
want to be real about at barstool, you know who's

175
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:43,000
fifth in strength of record in college football BYU I was.

176
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,879
Speaker 3: Literally just sitting on this.

177
00:08:45,159 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 7: So and you know who's ahead teams that that you

178
00:08:48,279 --> 00:08:53,000
don't fit your sec narrative. Indiana the last team that

179
00:08:53,039 --> 00:08:55,440
you want to because I think Indiana's in a similar spot,

180
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,960
like nobody wants to give them credit, especially what happened

181
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,799
in the playoffs last year. You know, Notre Dame, they're

182
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,799
sitting at eighteen, Michigan, they're sitting at twenty. All of

183
00:09:05,799 --> 00:09:08,559
these guys that you want to put up there and say, oh, well,

184
00:09:08,639 --> 00:09:11,279
they've been the big brands, the big daddies of college football.

185
00:09:11,519 --> 00:09:15,039
You know what, they're good, but they're not top five

186
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,480
in strength of record like BYU is and so it's

187
00:09:18,519 --> 00:09:22,080
just it's it's narrative driven, right, it's connotation driven. It's

188
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,039
who do we want to put there? Not necessarily who

189
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,600
do the numbers say should be there? So these are

190
00:09:27,799 --> 00:09:30,480
this is a show run by nerds. I don't think

191
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:31,960
they played any sports. Maybe they did.

192
00:09:33,039 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 2: If you're going to be a nerd, like lean into nerdery, okay,

193
00:09:35,879 --> 00:09:38,240
and they're not leaning into nerdery and analytics.

194
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 3: So that's my biggest issue.

195
00:09:40,799 --> 00:09:44,639
Speaker 2: And even PFF like finally they're coming around and granted,

196
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,279
I kind of like the doubters, but like lean into

197
00:09:47,279 --> 00:09:49,159
the nerdery a little bit here, Like why is it

198
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,679
that nerds are not leaning into the analytics. It's an issue.

199
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,679
Strength of record fifth in the country for me.

200
00:09:56,879 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 6: The problem with national media and people like the is

201
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,480
that you used to be able to play paper football,

202
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:06,799
Like in college football. You used to be able to

203
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,080
play paper football and be right most of the time.

204
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,279
Used to be like, Yep, Alabama's gonna win by thirty, Yep,

205
00:10:12,399 --> 00:10:15,039
You're just gonna win by thirty, sure, Ohio State by

206
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,639
and sometimes you still can to an extent, but it's

207
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:22,879
gotten less in the nil and transfer porta portal era.

208
00:10:23,639 --> 00:10:27,879
The media has not adjusted very well, struggling to adapt

209
00:10:27,919 --> 00:10:31,080
to the parody because the players are bouncing around more.

210
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,960
Paper football doesn't work very much. You can win on

211
00:10:34,039 --> 00:10:35,879
paper now and lose on the field.

212
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 2: You actually have to do due diligence and watch the

213
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:41,720
games and understand the analytics, the deep rooted analytics, and

214
00:10:41,759 --> 00:10:46,720
it's lazy reporting. Its lazy analytics, or they're lazy analysis

215
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:48,919
rather And that's why he's saying, you got to force

216
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,000
me a good point, because he's not he's not spending

217
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:53,960
the time and allocating the proper bandwidth to really analyze this.

218
00:10:54,759 --> 00:10:56,159
Speaker 3: I'm not saying by you.

219
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,399
Speaker 2: Should be favored by seven, agreed, So I'm not saying that.

220
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,279
And I think i Always State's a better team than

221
00:11:01,279 --> 00:11:04,120
what they're talking about here. I Always State can compete

222
00:11:04,159 --> 00:11:07,960
and beat anybody I think in the country, even.

223
00:11:07,759 --> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 3: With UH there, especially at home. That's what I'm talking about.

224
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,120
This is game. This is a game in aimes. This

225
00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:13,840
is different.

226
00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,399
Speaker 2: This is going to be a different game, and I'm

227
00:11:16,399 --> 00:11:18,559
okay with them picking it. I'm just not okay with

228
00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,080
their justification and the reasoning for it and their logic,

229
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:22,720
because I think it's illogical.

230
00:11:22,799 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 3: Let's continue.

231
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,519
Speaker 2: Let's listen in Barstool Sports discussing the b y U

232
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,039
Iowa State game and just tune in. This is like

233
00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,840
they're their logic. It gets more absurd as we go on.

234
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 3: I don't want to digress here.

235
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 9: I'm gonna take Iowa State, but I do just want

236
00:11:36,759 --> 00:11:38,480
to It's almost a full circle.

237
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,759
Speaker 3: Let's go back to how we started the show.

238
00:11:40,879 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 9: Well, you know, nobody's beaten anybody, and the only wins

239
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,080
that calendar in the SEC.

240
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:49,679
Speaker 3: This big twelve and stop.

241
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,960
Speaker 2: This is they started the show with They're like, no

242
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:58,039
one's beaten anybody unless it's an SEC or Big ten opponent.

243
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,039
Speaker 3: That that was what it was. It was their thesis.

244
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:05,919
Speaker 2: That's their baseline theology for their college football takes.

245
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 6: We actually haven't played football yet this year, Ben, I

246
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,080
don't know if you know, but not coming up, but

247
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,399
we haven't actually saw in preseason games.

248
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 2: Once again, they're struggling with the parody. They're struggling that

249
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:17,600
any team can be at any team. And this is

250
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,279
the thing they're speaking up both sides of their mouth.

251
00:12:19,279 --> 00:12:22,080
They're going to say, and stool President he's discussing this.

252
00:12:22,159 --> 00:12:25,879
He's like, I'm picking Iowas State, but let me tell

253
00:12:25,919 --> 00:12:27,559
you what the situation is.

254
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:32,600
Speaker 3: So let's continue cruising along in this conference. And who

255
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:33,080
have they beat?

256
00:12:33,159 --> 00:12:34,799
Speaker 9: Then you go back and look to the playoffs last

257
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,159
year and you look at Arizona State, who came out

258
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,679
of this conference and was a fourth down away from

259
00:12:39,759 --> 00:12:42,279
beating Texas in the playoffs and advancing.

260
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,919
Speaker 3: This is where I think people get confused. There is

261
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:45,960
so much parody.

262
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 9: I truly believe where they're talking Big twelve whatever, you

263
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,279
can take these teams and they ain't going to be

264
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,039
very competitive in Land in the same spot BYU would

265
00:12:55,039 --> 00:12:56,679
be very good in the SEC or whatever.

266
00:12:56,879 --> 00:12:58,679
Speaker 3: I do believe that I'm taking Iowa State.

267
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 9: Here, but people discount Yeah, these conferences even though you

268
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,279
go look at who came out at conference. Laster Arize

269
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,279
State should have beaten Texas, they fell behind. They should

270
00:13:09,279 --> 00:13:11,639
have in Texas, could have beaten Ohio. So I'm just

271
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:13,840
sick of like, oh, you didn't beat anybody less it's

272
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:14,519
in the SEC.

273
00:13:14,879 --> 00:13:16,639
Speaker 3: I'm taking a Ihowa State here, and.

274
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 9: This conference doesn't get the respect they deserve.

275
00:13:18,799 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 3: These are good teams. I don't know.

276
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 5: I agree, no, because it is true there is the

277
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,960
SEC does get a benefit of doubt where they rank

278
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:27,480
all their teams.

279
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:28,639
Speaker 3: At the beginning, this was all fine.

280
00:13:28,639 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 8: Who said anything about the SEC.

281
00:13:29,759 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 3: We're talking about yu Utah.

282
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,519
Speaker 5: Oh he's saying that the Big twelve getting like, you know,

283
00:13:35,639 --> 00:13:37,279
being like that no one beats anyone in the Big

284
00:13:37,279 --> 00:13:39,000
twelve or there's only gonna be one team that's in

285
00:13:39,039 --> 00:13:40,960
from the Big twelve. Like there's some good teams.

286
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 3: I believe in the Big Twelve.

287
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:43,360
Speaker 8: I just haven't believed in BYU.

288
00:13:43,639 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 9: Well, it started with Casey being like Ohio State hasn't

289
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,200
beaten anybody, Like, why if they beat the teams, if

290
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,080
you nobody says that about SEC teams, Yes, only other conferences,

291
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,159
Yes they do, No, they don't.

292
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,960
Speaker 4: Brandon has literally told me all season, I haven't beaten anybody.

293
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,559
Speaker 8: Correct, I do say it about A and M because

294
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:01,559
an M outside hasn't been a name outside.

295
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:08,159
Speaker 2: He literally says, I know, but that's I mean, it's

296
00:14:08,159 --> 00:14:11,360
just insane, like this one is that you're circling.

297
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,440
Speaker 3: Is number one in strength of record.

298
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,919
Speaker 2: By the way, this guy idiots like I said, if

299
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,159
you're gonna nerd nerd like that, you know they're not

300
00:14:20,159 --> 00:14:22,639
taking him to you. Hasn't played anyone except for not

301
00:14:22,799 --> 00:14:25,399
a Nord Dame is a top ten team in the

302
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,320
country in my opinion. Like, they're at worst, the top

303
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,440
fifteen team in college football this year. Okay, I understand

304
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:33,600
they're a two lost teams. They are a top fifteen

305
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:37,759
team at worst in my opinion. So he just doesn't

306
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,360
know ball and then he doesn't take the time to

307
00:14:41,559 --> 00:14:44,200
delve into any sort of the analytics.

308
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 6: Well, this guy just said I believe in the Big twelve.

309
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,720
I just don't be believe in BYU. He also said

310
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,639
Iowa States not very good. So he's taking all the

311
00:14:52,759 --> 00:14:54,919
teams that are at the top of the Big twelve

312
00:14:54,919 --> 00:14:57,120
and saying they're not good and then saying, oh, but

313
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:58,639
I believe in the Big Twelve.

314
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. No, it's both out. It's it's it's.

315
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,679
Speaker 2: Speaking out both sides of their mouth. They don't even

316
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,200
know what they're saying, and they're they're talking in circles.

317
00:15:08,279 --> 00:15:13,679
Speaker 8: Let's continue, no, no, no, what we have conversations about

318
00:15:13,679 --> 00:15:15,159
them being the best team in the SEC, and I

319
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,120
was like, your SEC schedule, you've beaten four bottom feeders,

320
00:15:18,159 --> 00:15:22,080
so so let's just wait until you beat somebody number one.

321
00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,759
Speaker 4: The number one strength of record is But that's the point.

322
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,639
Is My point to you is like they have what

323
00:15:28,759 --> 00:15:29,159
are you doing?

324
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 9: Yes?

325
00:15:29,679 --> 00:15:32,759
Speaker 4: That means like if they so ESPN puts it out.

326
00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 9: Where do you have to who do you have to

327
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:35,440
beat in the SEC?

328
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,240
Speaker 3: To have beaten somebody, you gotta be well for A

329
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:43,120
and M. I think they got to beat forty Florida State.

330
00:15:43,159 --> 00:15:44,639
Speaker 8: They got to bet l s U this Saturday does

331
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:45,399
have the.

332
00:15:45,399 --> 00:15:46,559
Speaker 3: Number one strength of record.

333
00:15:46,759 --> 00:15:50,039
Speaker 2: It's a bad analytics.

334
00:15:48,799 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 4: It's it's like if you if they put.

335
00:15:51,759 --> 00:15:54,879
Speaker 6: All it's a bad analytic because it doesn't fit your narrative.

336
00:15:55,039 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 3: Let me explain to the people what strength of record means.

337
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:01,039
Speaker 7: Strength of record essentially takes into account your schedule that

338
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,120
you have already played. And they said how they say,

339
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,279
how would the average top twenty five team fare. So basically,

340
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,080
whatever your ranking is is how they're ranking, like in

341
00:16:12,159 --> 00:16:14,639
terms of how impressive it would be for the average

342
00:16:14,679 --> 00:16:17,399
top twenty five team to do what you've done. So

343
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,159
it also takes into account who you played, but as

344
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,879
well as how you played them. So if you played

345
00:16:25,399 --> 00:16:29,000
if you just played bottom feeders in the SEC, let's say,

346
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:31,279
but you blew all of them out, you get a

347
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,519
lot of credit for that because they're taking into account

348
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,919
the fact that you are blowing teams out.

349
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 3: Be always not blowing teams out, but they're still.

350
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,759
Speaker 7: Top five and strength of record because what the metric

351
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,759
is saying is the average top twenty five team could

352
00:16:43,799 --> 00:16:45,759
not do what BYU is doing.

353
00:16:46,159 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 3: Sagrin another metric.

354
00:16:47,799 --> 00:16:50,879
Speaker 2: Notre Dame's strength of schedule is sixth in the country,

355
00:16:50,919 --> 00:16:58,480
Alabama's third, Miami's is ninth, LSU's is seventh, BYUS is

356
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,120
actually fifty fifth. The record is fifth, but their strength

357
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,400
of schedule, for Sagarin is actually fifty fifth.

358
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,400
Speaker 3: Well, and strength of schedule and strength of record are

359
00:17:06,559 --> 00:17:07,079
are different.

360
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 2: I understand that they're different, But like if you're gonna,

361
00:17:09,559 --> 00:17:12,599
like if you want to like throw in another metric

362
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,039
because you don't trust the shred of record and you're

363
00:17:15,039 --> 00:17:18,200
gonna undermine strength of record, then you can go Sagarin

364
00:17:18,279 --> 00:17:23,839
strength of schedule to determine who's played who and and

365
00:17:23,839 --> 00:17:27,000
and and kind of taken take away like how you

366
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:31,319
played them by the end result, but just like what

367
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,839
those teams have done thus far this season versus their

368
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,119
respective opponents on their schedule.

369
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,640
Speaker 3: So anyway, Uh, last couple of.

370
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,640
Speaker 2: Soundbites as we wrap this up, but I think they

371
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:45,480
just keep on talking and circles here.

372
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 4: The teams that have played our schedule only eight percent.

373
00:17:50,279 --> 00:17:53,559
It's an eight percent chance we haven't played that yet.

374
00:17:54,559 --> 00:17:54,759
Speaker 8: More.

375
00:17:54,839 --> 00:17:55,799
Speaker 5: Strength of record.

376
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's an analytic.

377
00:17:57,319 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 10: It's it's like an ESPN FBI type like, yeah, because

378
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,599
they have the SEC.

379
00:18:06,079 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 6: No.

380
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:06,319
Speaker 2: No.

381
00:18:06,519 --> 00:18:08,759
Speaker 4: But my point, like I'm gonna say to you, Dave,

382
00:18:08,799 --> 00:18:10,440
like no one says about the SEC is we literally

383
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,079
have this argument every week. I'm Ohio State is the

384
00:18:13,079 --> 00:18:15,240
best team in the country. I'm just saying that when

385
00:18:15,279 --> 00:18:16,240
it comes down.

386
00:18:16,039 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 3: To they have to beat who do they have to beat?

387
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,200
To have beaten somebody that.

388
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,079
Speaker 4: You can only win the games on your record, I guess,

389
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:24,400
I mean on your schedule.

390
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,759
Speaker 9: But but we're in an era where people haven't been anybody.

391
00:18:28,039 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 3: But who are they that you have Ohio State and

392
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:30,799
everyone else?

393
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 9: I guess Indiana, Oregon, Like I don't. I don't know

394
00:18:33,599 --> 00:18:35,599
because I think the SEC is to junk.

395
00:18:35,799 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 8: To be honest, I think Ohio, Ohio State has to

396
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:38,759
beat Michigan.

397
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:41,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what they have to beat. I hate they're

398
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:41,880
not going to do that.

399
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:42,480
Speaker 1: I hate that.

400
00:18:42,559 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 6: I have to.

401
00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 8: Satisfy what you want here, but Ohio State has to

402
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,319
be Michigan because it was going to be Penn State,

403
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:48,519
and the Penn State fell off.

404
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,920
Speaker 4: The biggest, the biggest thing overall in college football this year,

405
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,400
it's all parody, like there is, it's parallel.

406
00:18:54,519 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 8: Correct, everybody's supposed to everybody?

407
00:18:56,039 --> 00:18:58,680
Speaker 4: He is right about that, Yes, so it's parody across

408
00:18:58,680 --> 00:18:59,000
the board.

409
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,720
Speaker 3: So so so that agreed.

410
00:19:02,039 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 9: So it's just we need a paradigm shift that haven't

411
00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,240
beaten anybody, well, then nobody can be.

412
00:19:07,319 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 4: There because nobody's anybody is that fair and nobody ever will.

413
00:19:12,279 --> 00:19:16,240
Speaker 8: Andy's beating Oregon on the road. That's impressive. Yeah, so

414
00:19:16,279 --> 00:19:19,319
that's the number of Alabama one at Georgia. Like, yeah,

415
00:19:19,319 --> 00:19:24,480
people are beating people, people are beaten people. Yeah, that

416
00:19:24,559 --> 00:19:27,000
George is an impressive win. You can say it's not

417
00:19:27,079 --> 00:19:27,680
it Georgia.

418
00:19:29,039 --> 00:19:31,079
Speaker 3: Who cares? George is not that good? All right?

419
00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:32,599
Speaker 1: Can't wait to get back to be what I'm taking

420
00:19:32,599 --> 00:19:33,000
b YU.

421
00:19:33,079 --> 00:19:36,599
Speaker 4: I do, I do believe in this team here you're taking.

422
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,880
Speaker 10: I love Iowa States. It's not even that I don't

423
00:19:38,920 --> 00:19:40,599
believe in b YU. Like they've been a good team

424
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,200
that had a big road win. They probably shouldn't have

425
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,039
gone against Arizona, but he had classic.

426
00:19:44,799 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 3: College football spot.

427
00:19:46,319 --> 00:19:50,079
Speaker 10: Ioa also like good coach, good good veteran quarterback. I

428
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:51,960
trust rock up back that trust Iowa State in the spot,

429
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:52,440
I bet the game.

430
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,839
Speaker 3: Already love Ioa State? All right?

431
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:59,319
Speaker 2: They yea, they finally get back to beat YU and

432
00:19:59,559 --> 00:20:00,559
Iowa State.

433
00:20:00,799 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 7: Nobody's beating anybody, and nobody ever will, no one ever will.

434
00:20:04,279 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 3: College football actually doesn't exist anymore.

435
00:20:06,559 --> 00:20:09,319
Speaker 7: Yeah, you want to get dumber just and look, I

436
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:10,519
like the barstool guys.

437
00:20:10,519 --> 00:20:11,319
Speaker 3: But that was one of the.

438
00:20:11,319 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 7: Dumbest conversations I think I've ever listened to about this sport.

439
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 2: I think they actually arrived at truth correct who but

440
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:20,480
who believes the truth?

441
00:20:20,599 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 3: And it's the parody conversation.

442
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 2: It's It's what I talk about day in and day

443
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,319
out on this show. And I had to try to

444
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:33,119
convince cougarnation in twenty twenty when nil and transfer portal

445
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,759
became a reality. I told you from the beginning, like

446
00:20:36,839 --> 00:20:39,640
this is going to even the playing field. It will

447
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:43,000
not ruin college football. It's going to create a better

448
00:20:43,079 --> 00:20:47,319
product collectively for college football, so that there's more opportunities

449
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,440
for the Byus and the SMUs and the Boise States

450
00:20:50,799 --> 00:20:55,200
and the Indianas and the Vanderbilts. Look at all these

451
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,880
teams rising to power. Look at all these teams that

452
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:03,920
can beat anybody on any given day in any given conference.

453
00:21:04,279 --> 00:21:05,400
Speaker 3: That's what it's about.

454
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 2: It's hope in life without hope, right, what.

455
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:11,759
Speaker 3: Do you have?

456
00:21:12,599 --> 00:21:15,319
Speaker 2: Hope for a better life, Hope for a better future,

457
00:21:15,559 --> 00:21:19,319
Hope for a better football team. Hope, hope, hope, that's

458
00:21:19,319 --> 00:21:23,519
what you want. And now there's hope in college football

459
00:21:24,079 --> 00:21:26,799
in all of these universities. And it's not like this

460
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:31,640
dwindling hope. It's not this fleeting hope that the system

461
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:38,000
is against you. Now, it's there's true, unadulterated parody in

462
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:42,359
college football, and it is glorious and it is fantastic,

463
00:21:42,599 --> 00:21:45,640
and I think barstools just struggling with it. That's our

a financial vision, You're not going to be able to retire.

494
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,759
Speaker 3: Hit them up, get on a free Q and A.

495
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,039
Speaker 2: It is time to talk about stats and to talk

496
00:23:21,039 --> 00:23:22,839
about some of these stats of the day as it

497
00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:23,279
released to.

498
00:23:23,279 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 3: Football and basketball.

499
00:23:24,319 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 2: We have Certified Financial Planner NFLPA Certified Financial Planner. We

500
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,000
got Blaine Anderson of Batterwealth Online. Blaine how the heck

501
00:23:31,039 --> 00:23:31,279
are you.

502
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:33,359
Speaker 3: I'm doing great.

503
00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,599
Speaker 11: Happy Friday to you guys. Great to be here.

504
00:23:35,759 --> 00:23:39,279
Speaker 2: Always a pleasure talking metrics and numbers with you. Let's

505
00:23:39,279 --> 00:23:43,400
start off with a football in basketball metric. Here a ranking,

506
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:48,240
if you will. Last season twenty twenty four, I always

507
00:23:48,279 --> 00:23:49,480
look at BYU.

508
00:23:49,039 --> 00:23:50,559
Speaker 3: Football and BOU basketball. Those are the.

509
00:23:50,519 --> 00:23:56,599
Speaker 2: Premier sports of Brigham BYU football wasn't even predicted last

510
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,880
year to make a Bowl game, let alone to win

511
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:05,640
eleven games right and end up thirteenth overall in the country.

512
00:24:05,839 --> 00:24:08,279
With that monument to win in the Alible Bowl, eight

513
00:24:08,279 --> 00:24:15,440
million viewers watched as the Cougars demantled the the primetime

514
00:24:16,039 --> 00:24:22,200
Shadeur and Travis Hunters show, it was great BYU basketball. They,

515
00:24:22,319 --> 00:24:25,480
on the other hand, at the beginning of the twenty

516
00:24:25,519 --> 00:24:27,480
twenty four twenty twenty five season.

517
00:24:27,319 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 3: They were kind of on the outskirts.

518
00:24:28,759 --> 00:24:31,559
Speaker 2: There was like there was expectation for them, but they

519
00:24:31,599 --> 00:24:33,000
weren't in the top twenty five. They were in that

520
00:24:33,039 --> 00:24:36,279
twenty six, twenty seven to twenty eight range, and they

521
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:37,880
ended up at the end of the season with a

522
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:38,880
sweet sixteen run.

523
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 3: They ended up thirteenth overall as well. Kind of an

524
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:42,000
interesting number.

525
00:24:42,039 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 2: Thirteen and by the way, I think BYU basketball and

526
00:24:45,799 --> 00:24:48,519
football were both predicted in the preseason.

527
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:49,759
Speaker 3: Oh wait, it was just football.

528
00:24:49,799 --> 00:24:52,599
Speaker 2: Football was predicted to be the thirteenth best team in

529
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:55,240
the Big twelve. Kind of interesting this number thirteen popping up.

530
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:56,759
I don't know what that means. I don't know what

531
00:24:56,799 --> 00:24:59,400
the significance is. Maybe you can elaborate on it in

532
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,480
the financial world w thirteen actually meets. But anyway, I'm

533
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:06,640
looking at this this season here BYU football was right

534
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,799
on the outside of the top twenty five preseason. Right

535
00:25:10,839 --> 00:25:14,759
now they're eleventh in the country. Pretty crazy. Where will

536
00:25:14,759 --> 00:25:15,480
they end up?

537
00:25:15,519 --> 00:25:16,759
Speaker 3: Do you think? In your opinion?

538
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:22,319
Speaker 2: And then BYU basketball preseason is eighth in the country.

539
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:28,119
If BYU continues at this rate, BYU's gonna end up.

540
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:29,920
BAU football is gonna end up in the top ten

541
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:32,720
as well as BYU basketball ending up in the top

542
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,559
ten by the end of two thousand, twenty six, the

543
00:25:36,599 --> 00:25:40,519
twenty twenty six season, twenty five twenty twenty six season.

544
00:25:40,759 --> 00:25:43,279
What do you make of those rankings, those metrics? What

545
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:44,079
stands out to you?

546
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,319
Speaker 11: One thing that stands out to me has to do

547
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,039
with just being a Cougar fan. I know that I'm

548
00:25:51,039 --> 00:25:53,880
not the only one out there. One thing I love

549
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:57,000
about BYU is let's be in the underdogs, and I

550
00:25:57,039 --> 00:25:59,880
feel like we do achieve more with less. And that's

551
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,279
those rankings and those statistics tell me a lot of times.

552
00:26:03,039 --> 00:26:05,319
Speaker 12: We do get doubted, we don't get the.

553
00:26:05,319 --> 00:26:11,319
Speaker 11: National recognition, and it seems like we're underappreciated across the country.

554
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:14,720
But these kind of stats and finish in top fifteen

555
00:26:15,519 --> 00:26:19,680
this year, probably top ten for both premier sports. We've

556
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,559
got to start getting a little more recognition. But I'll

557
00:26:21,559 --> 00:26:23,359
tell you what it makes me proud as a BYU

558
00:26:23,519 --> 00:26:26,519
Cougar fan. I love being the underdog and I love

559
00:26:26,599 --> 00:26:30,000
us overachieving and what I feel doing more with less,

560
00:26:30,039 --> 00:26:31,640
I think it's cool and it gives me a little

561
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:32,599
more Cougar pride.

562
00:26:32,799 --> 00:26:36,880
Speaker 2: Love that Yeah, BYU has done. I think, in the

563
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,519
modern era, has done more with less than any other

564
00:26:40,559 --> 00:26:44,200
school per dollars spent. They've won more in all of

565
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,359
their sports than any other university. And I think now

566
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,960
that they're on an equal playing field from a resource

567
00:26:50,039 --> 00:26:54,720
allocation standpoint, sky's the limit. Nothing's really going to slow

568
00:26:54,759 --> 00:27:00,079
down this BYU hype train. Now, Blaine, we're going to

569
00:27:00,079 --> 00:27:02,160
towards the end of the year, and we're looking at

570
00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:04,400
our taxes. We're looking at a lot of things at

571
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,039
the end of the year as far as our finances

572
00:27:06,039 --> 00:27:10,240
are concerned. Let's talk to financial stats. Many self employed

573
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,039
professionals just wrapped up their tax filings on October fifteenth.

574
00:27:13,039 --> 00:27:14,559
Speaker 3: Issues of the time of the year when.

575
00:27:14,559 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 2: A lot of folks start thinking about how to finish

576
00:27:16,759 --> 00:27:20,799
the year strong financially. What kind of planning strategies should

577
00:27:20,839 --> 00:27:22,599
listeners be thinking about right now?

578
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,359
Speaker 11: Well, let me mention two things. Ben, You're right, this

579
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,279
is a busy time of year. A lot of us

580
00:27:28,319 --> 00:27:31,799
just actually file our tax returns as of October fifteenth,

581
00:27:31,799 --> 00:27:34,160
so it's on our minds. We're coming up on the

582
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,240
year end. We have an idea of what our income

583
00:27:36,519 --> 00:27:39,039
has looked like throughout the year, and so this is

584
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,359
prime time to be integrating your tax and investment management.

585
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,839
I know, just with recent appointments with clients who've been

586
00:27:45,839 --> 00:27:49,400
talking about making sure that your retirement accounts are fully funded.

587
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,759
We've been looking at a lot of tax smart wealth strategies,

588
00:27:52,799 --> 00:27:55,640
whether it's an oil and gas or real estate with

589
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,759
bonus appreciation, things that can help you keep more of

590
00:27:59,759 --> 00:28:02,279
what you've made throughout the year. And then also we

591
00:28:02,319 --> 00:28:06,799
even talk about gifting strategies. Many of our clients and

592
00:28:06,839 --> 00:28:09,200
people out there are charitably inclined and this is that

593
00:28:09,319 --> 00:28:11,160
time to think about it as well and how you

594
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:16,839
can maximize those charitable gifting intentions that you have not

595
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,559
only get the most bang for your buck, but do

596
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,599
the most good. And so those are all into the

597
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,079
year strategies. But a second thing I was going to

598
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,079
mention that we do often for clients that we thought

599
00:28:26,079 --> 00:28:28,599
we'd do for ESPN listeners here as we wrap up

600
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:33,359
the year, we do a tax observations analysis. It's from

601
00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:37,480
a CFP perspective and it's a way for clients to

602
00:28:37,519 --> 00:28:40,960
get some outside perspectives, some additionals into the year strategies.

603
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,720
We identify some inefficiencies, we will bring to the tables

604
00:28:45,759 --> 00:28:49,160
some options, and it's something that our clients find great

605
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,480
value in. We thought that there might be something that

606
00:28:51,519 --> 00:28:53,799
we would do on behalf of ESPN listeners before the

607
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,599
end of the year. By reaching out to us through

608
00:28:56,599 --> 00:29:01,440
our website bendorwel dot com, we'll facilitate this. It's normally

609
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,759
a thousand dollars cost, but it's something we'd like to

610
00:29:04,759 --> 00:29:07,200
do on behalf of listeners and something we thought we'd

611
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,200
mentioned here before the end of the year for ESPN

612
00:29:09,279 --> 00:29:12,599
listeners to receive a tax observations analysis from your friends

613
00:29:12,599 --> 00:29:13,920
here at Vanderwilt dot com.

614
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 2: Easiest way to do that then is go to Banterwelth

615
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,240
dot com and then navigate the website to which location.

616
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:23,599
Speaker 11: Yeah, send us a note and then what we'll do

617
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,640
is send you a link to upload your tax returns securely.

618
00:29:28,079 --> 00:29:31,720
That's most important, But I think that you'll be impressed

619
00:29:31,839 --> 00:29:35,960
at the observations and the analysis that comes back from

620
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:40,839
a certified financial planning standpoint can help identify for listeners

621
00:29:40,839 --> 00:29:43,240
some specific strategies or things that they can do before

622
00:29:43,279 --> 00:29:45,799
the end of the year. And it's something that we

623
00:29:45,839 --> 00:29:48,200
do on behalf of clients on a regular basis, and

624
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,079
we'd like to do it for listeners of the show.

625
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 3: Love that.

626
00:29:51,079 --> 00:29:53,559
Speaker 2: I'd love that you take care of our listeners. Another

627
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:57,359
thing here, you've talked about custom income notes every month.

628
00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,680
What's the October edition looking like and why is it

629
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,039
a smart play right now?

630
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 11: Yeah, this is one of our favorite strategies, something that

631
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,240
we do on a monthly basis on behalf of clients,

632
00:30:08,319 --> 00:30:11,400
especially those that are looking for income and want to

633
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:14,640
have a little downside protection. It's not a direct investment

634
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,400
in the market, but we track a couple of large

635
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,759
industry leaders. For example, this month, we're tracking Nvidia, United Healthcare,

636
00:30:22,799 --> 00:30:25,160
and Lily And what it does is give us some

637
00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:30,119
downside protection, either a thirty percent or fifty percent protection,

638
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,400
and as long as these underlying securities stay within those barriers,

639
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,759
so those buffers, we get a monthly interest payment and

640
00:30:37,799 --> 00:30:41,119
this one is annualized at twenty percent for a fifteen

641
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:44,359
month period of time, which means there's a total opportunity

642
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,480
of twenty five percent. The reason we like it and

643
00:30:47,559 --> 00:30:49,759
do it on behalf of investors is we don't know

644
00:30:49,799 --> 00:30:52,119
what the market's going to do tomorrow. Of course it's

645
00:30:52,119 --> 00:30:54,960
at a high point, but this gives us some downside

646
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,359
buffers and some opportunities to win in the form of

647
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:02,839
receiving monthly cash tupumps as long as those underlying securities,

648
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:07,000
these large cap companies and industry leaders to stay within

649
00:31:07,079 --> 00:31:09,759
this thirty percent and even a fifty percent buffer. So

650
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,519
one of our favorite types of investments. It's important for

651
00:31:13,599 --> 00:31:16,319
investors to understand the risks associated with it, and they

652
00:31:16,359 --> 00:31:18,559
can reach out to our office as well to get

653
00:31:18,599 --> 00:31:21,319
more additional information about a band or custom income.

654
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:21,640
Speaker 3: Note.

655
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 11: So something fun that we've got set up and it'll

656
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:26,680
trade next week on the thirty first, right before the

657
00:31:26,759 --> 00:31:27,279
end of the month.

658
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:27,960
Speaker 3: Love that.

Speaker 3: Blaine, always appreciate our time together.

663
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:45,079
Speaker 2: Give me a score prediction really quick, BYU versus Iowa State.

664
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:48,319
BYU is a two and a half point dog okay

665
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:53,160
heading into ames Iowa. The over under a set at

666
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,759
forty nine and a half ESP and analytics gives BYU

667
00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,720
a fifty four percent chance of victory. Do you think

668
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,160
it's another one score game and BYU comes out triumphant?

669
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,039
Speaker 3: Give me your thoughts. Yeah, I do.

670
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,960
Speaker 11: I've only heard about aims and Iowa stayed in that environment,

671
00:32:11,039 --> 00:32:12,839
but it sounds like it's going to be brutal and

672
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:14,359
one of our toughest ones of the year.

673
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:15,559
Speaker 6: So yeah, I do.

674
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 11: I think it's another one one score game and outcome.

675
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:24,599
But our cardiac koog's have been coming in late in

676
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,799
the games. I love what's happening, and especially if Barret

677
00:32:27,799 --> 00:32:31,039
can keep running like he is, I'll call it seventeen fourteen.

678
00:32:31,119 --> 00:32:34,400
I think we'd be on the ender, but I'm expecting

679
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:36,079
it'll probably be a little cold, and I don't know

680
00:32:36,119 --> 00:32:38,839
exactly what the weather conditions are like. But I like

681
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,599
another close game seventeen to fourteen. Of course, going with

682
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:42,960

All right, let's get into it. Matt Campbell, I always

739
00:35:24,079 --> 00:35:28,239
stayed head coach. How would you evaluate this? BWAU Football team.

740
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:28,519
Speaker 3: Att.

741
00:35:31,559 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 12: I think you hit the word right is they're a

742
00:35:34,119 --> 00:35:37,719
really great team. And obviously I think you know, I've

743
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:41,719
talked about Colonie before, my respect for him. Man, if

744
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,360
my own son could play for anybody in college football,

745
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,199
I would want my son to play for him. I mean,

746
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,639
that's how much I think of him and how he

747
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,159
you know, how he leads a football program and a

748
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,239
team and you see it. I mean, they play for

749
00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:56,039
each other. They play really great, complimentary football, and they

750
00:35:56,079 --> 00:35:58,599
play great team football and so all the things that

751
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,960
when we've been our best and we're at our best,

752
00:36:01,559 --> 00:36:03,599
there's some similarities in terms of how we want to

753
00:36:03,639 --> 00:36:06,000
play the game, but so much respect for them, and

754
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,440
you know, across the board they're playing really good football

755
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:08,800
right now.

756
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think he brings up something that I've brought

757
00:36:12,599 --> 00:36:17,480
up consistency, consistently about Iowa State. How they win, how

758
00:36:17,519 --> 00:36:21,480
they recruit, how they develop, how they invest in their

759
00:36:21,639 --> 00:36:25,079
organizational design, the culture that they're building. It's akin to

760
00:36:25,079 --> 00:36:30,000
what Brigham has. They don't have necessarily the religious element

761
00:36:30,039 --> 00:36:34,880
to it, kind of the legacy program that is BYU,

762
00:36:35,119 --> 00:36:38,440
but culturally, when you look at these two teams and

763
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,559
you look at even how they play their game schematically.

764
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,199
There's a lot of similarities there, and I think he

765
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,960
sees that when he checks tape twenty two, he's seeing it.

766
00:36:48,079 --> 00:36:53,719
Even as his relationship develops at a more in depth level,

767
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,920
at a higher level with Kilane, he's seeing the mirror effect.

768
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 7: Is there a higher compliment that you can give another

769
00:37:01,519 --> 00:37:07,920
human being? Then to say, if if I if I

770
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,239
could have my son play for anyone, it would be

771
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:12,000
Kilanie Sataki.

772
00:37:12,039 --> 00:37:13,400
Speaker 3: I don't think we've heard anyone say that.

773
00:37:13,440 --> 00:37:17,440
Speaker 7: And Kilani has coached against some guys throughout college football,

774
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:18,360
throughout this league.

775
00:37:18,559 --> 00:37:20,079
Speaker 3: We've never heard anyone say that.

776
00:37:20,159 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 7: I mean, I imagine Brent Brennan over at Arizona would probably

777
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:25,320
say something similar.

778
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 6: I think Kenny said Kenny Dillingham actually said that last year.

779
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,039
Speaker 7: You know what, I think you're right, So, I mean,

780
00:37:31,079 --> 00:37:34,199
it's incredible that you can he I don't know. It

781
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:38,800
just speaks to who Kilanie Sataki is. And Kialanie's never

782
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:42,760
the guy who's out going to do promo for himself.

783
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,920
In fact, he doesn't really love doing the media. And

784
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,159
that's not because he's a hermit or because he doesn't

785
00:37:48,199 --> 00:37:51,719
like interacting with people. I think He just prefers interacting

786
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,679
with people on a personal basis, and I think sometimes

787
00:37:54,679 --> 00:37:57,480
he maybe feels like media is not always that way.

788
00:37:57,519 --> 00:37:59,639
And not to say that he dislikes it or he's

789
00:37:59,639 --> 00:38:02,199
bad at it either, I just think he would prefer

790
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:05,679
a one on one conversation with an individual than he

791
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,079
would do media.

792
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 3: Even though he's great at it.

793
00:38:08,039 --> 00:38:11,239
Speaker 7: We see him dancing pregame, but I mean, we're kind

794
00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:12,920
of getting lost in the sauce here.

795
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:17,360
Speaker 3: The whole purpose of that question was to talk.

796
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:20,079
Speaker 7: About how he would evaluate Biolo football team, but I'm

797
00:38:20,119 --> 00:38:21,679
just hung up on the fact that he said if

798
00:38:21,679 --> 00:38:23,199
he could have his son play for anyone, it would

799
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:24,239
be for Klonie Satakia.

800
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:25,400
Speaker 3: I think that's pretty impressive.

801
00:38:25,480 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 6: Well, I think it speaks to just klan is a

802
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:33,199
great networker. Yeah, he's incredible networking. Like I've never you've

803
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:35,960
never heard a coach say a bad thing about Kilani.

804
00:38:36,639 --> 00:38:39,559
I'm and coaches don't usually make a habit of going

805
00:38:39,599 --> 00:38:41,280
out and saying bad things about.

806
00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:45,320
Speaker 7: Usually they just won't say anything about that, which we've

807
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:46,000
seen recently.

808
00:38:46,119 --> 00:38:51,119
Speaker 13: Most most coaches, most coaches won't just go out of

809
00:38:51,159 --> 00:38:54,239
their way to compliment the other coach when it's not

810
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:58,000
a question about the cut, right, And so the question was.

811
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,440
Speaker 7: Not at all about Kalan because like Brent and got

812
00:39:00,559 --> 00:39:04,519
questions specifically about like, hey, what's your relationship like with Glaniy,

813
00:39:04,599 --> 00:39:07,400
same with Kyle Whittingham. There was nowhere in this pressler

814
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:10,039
where he was asked what do you think about Klaney Stuckey.

815
00:39:10,199 --> 00:39:11,960
He went out of his way to say, man, I

816
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:12,519
love this guy.

817
00:39:12,679 --> 00:39:15,280
Speaker 3: Yeah. So, and it's incredible.

818
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,719
Speaker 7: He talks about how this is a team and we

819
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:19,519
can elaborate more on this, but he's going to talk

820
00:39:19,599 --> 00:39:22,599
more about this BYU football team and what they look.

821
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:23,199
Speaker 3: Like as a whole.

822
00:39:23,239 --> 00:39:27,199
Speaker 7: So, Matt Campbell number two, what stands out to you

823
00:39:27,679 --> 00:39:29,599
about BYU's offense.

824
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,400
Speaker 12: Yeah, I think the biggest thing is just the physicality

825
00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:36,159
across the board from all eleven players. You know, it

826
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,800
starts with the toughness of their quarterback. I love their

827
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:43,039
running back, tough, physical football player. And then man, you

828
00:39:43,079 --> 00:39:45,440
look at those five offensive linemen. Man, those guys are

829
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:47,880
really talented players, guys that played a lot of football.

830
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:51,119
So I think when when you start with this BYU team,

831
00:39:51,159 --> 00:39:53,800
you talk about physicality and their ability to run the football,

832
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:56,920
and then on top of that, they've got playmakers on

833
00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:58,840
the perimeter. You know, you see it in their special

834
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,280
teams game, you see it off All those guys are

835
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,639
doing great things in all phases of the game. So

836
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,960
they are a complete offense and can really attack you

837
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:06,840
in all facets of it.

838
00:40:07,679 --> 00:40:10,079
Speaker 3: There's really no divas on this team.

839
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:13,760
Speaker 7: It's easy to like talk about oh, humble and hungry,

840
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:16,320
and I feel like that's a lot of coaches mantras

841
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,199
that they want to give to their players, but there's

842
00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:21,920
usually one or two guys who kind of throw that

843
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,719
off because sometimes that's just the nature of playing the

844
00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:27,480
wide receiver position or the quarterback position, or that's the

845
00:40:27,559 --> 00:40:31,559
nature of young people these days with nil and media gratification,

846
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,760
all of those things. It's incredible that Matt Campbell notices that,

847
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:37,079
but I actually agree. I think that's one of the

848
00:40:37,079 --> 00:40:40,159
things that makes this Buoy football team so special is

849
00:40:40,199 --> 00:40:42,239
there's no me on this football team.

850
00:40:42,599 --> 00:40:43,119
Speaker 3: Even LG.

851
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 7: Martin, who's going to go for a thousand yards, he

852
00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,239
doesn't give a rip about how many yards he gets

853
00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:51,519
in the game because him, Bear or the offense I guess,

854
00:40:51,519 --> 00:40:53,480
not the offensive line, but him and Bear. When you

855
00:40:53,519 --> 00:40:55,599
ask them about the run game. You know what their

856
00:40:55,599 --> 00:40:58,199
first response is, Oh, well, the guy's blocking it out

857
00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:00,719
of me. They they're never saying, oh, well, I had

858
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,000
to make a move here, and I just the first

859
00:41:03,039 --> 00:41:06,079
thing always, even in Bear's first game at Portland State

860
00:41:06,119 --> 00:41:08,480
he said it in his Sports Nation interview, was they

861
00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:10,320
were like, well, what do you attribute the success tonight?

862
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:11,639
Speaker 3: So and he goes, Oh, the guy's in front of me.

863
00:41:11,679 --> 00:41:13,480
The guy's blocking in front of me. There's no me

864
00:41:13,599 --> 00:41:14,199
with this team.

865
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,360
Speaker 6: Well, I think it's funny because it feels like the

866
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,000
offense has just taken on the personality of a Rod.

867
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:22,519
A Rod doesn't like the spotlight. In fact, he prefers

868
00:41:22,559 --> 00:41:24,599
to stay in the shadows. I feel like he's more

869
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,320
I don't know if he's introverted or extroverted, but to me,

870
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,760
he just seems more like I'm gonna keep to myself,

871
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,000
do my job, my one eleventh, you know, and all

872
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:34,760
those things. And the other thing that occurred to me

873
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,400
during the SoundBite is Matt Campbell was also describing his

874
00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:41,079
own offense. True because it feels like BYU's offense and

875
00:41:41,079 --> 00:41:45,119
Iowa States offense are essentially this. They both are very

876
00:41:45,159 --> 00:41:47,480
complimentary run pass run sets.

877
00:41:47,559 --> 00:41:48,039
Speaker 3: Up the pass.

878
00:41:48,039 --> 00:41:51,360
Speaker 6: They've got good like Rock Obect and Bear Blackmyer actually

879
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,119
have pretty similar stats in terms of completion percentage and

880
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:58,280
and all those things. And and they've got good running

881
00:41:58,280 --> 00:41:59,639
backs the same way we've got LJ.

882
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 3: Martin. I think they've got more depth.

883
00:42:01,599 --> 00:42:04,679
Speaker 6: Honestly, I think the biggest difference between this b YU

884
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,719
and Iowa State team right now is the injuries to

885
00:42:07,760 --> 00:42:10,719
Byu happened at the running back position, and the injuries

886
00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:12,880
to Iowa State happened at the defensive back position.

887
00:42:13,039 --> 00:42:15,400
Speaker 3: I was going to say happened literally everywhere else.

888
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,639
Speaker 7: Yeah, this Iowa State team is going through it right now,

889
00:42:18,679 --> 00:42:21,159
which look, there's been years where we were looking at

890
00:42:21,159 --> 00:42:21,760
it saying.

891
00:42:21,559 --> 00:42:23,880
Speaker 3: Man, BOU is going through it with the injuries right now.

892
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:28,159
Speaker 7: I do think Ben made this comparison a couple of

893
00:42:28,199 --> 00:42:28,760
minutes ago.

894
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:32,559
Speaker 3: I think the comparison between Iowa State and BOU really

895
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:33,559
is very similar.

896
00:42:33,599 --> 00:42:37,119
Speaker 7: Like it's in a part of the country that nationally,

897
00:42:37,199 --> 00:42:39,480
most people don't really want to be, even though I

898
00:42:39,519 --> 00:42:42,679
wouldn't compare Utah to the state of Iowa, Like I

899
00:42:42,679 --> 00:42:45,559
think the connotation of it's not really somehere people think

900
00:42:45,559 --> 00:42:47,719
they want to live. I think that's real, and I

901
00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,239
think sometimes it's hard to recruit to those places a

902
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,400
because you don't have a ton of hometown kids who

903
00:42:53,679 --> 00:42:58,119
you could convince to just take a home discount, even

904
00:42:58,199 --> 00:43:01,559
though I think the recruiting in Iowa and in the

905
00:43:01,559 --> 00:43:03,079
state of Utah speaks for itself.

906
00:43:03,079 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 3: But I think you're right, like rock O and Bear

907
00:43:05,679 --> 00:43:06,280
very similar.

908
00:43:06,559 --> 00:43:09,280
Speaker 7: The other thing that he touched on that even Iowa

909
00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:12,360
State's defensive coordinator touched on, how often do you hear

910
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:18,239
about in an opposing coaches presser them talking about the

911
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:21,639
wide receivers blocking. I think that's another part of this

912
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,320
team that's really underrated. It's part of the reason that

913
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:27,400
BYU's run game is so good is because when they

914
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:32,599
get to the outside, Chase Roberts, Parker Kingston, Cody Hagen,

915
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:36,000
none of these guys give up on blocks, which and

916
00:43:36,039 --> 00:43:39,480
I think I think Carson Ryan, Yes, we got to

917
00:43:39,519 --> 00:43:41,639
give Carson Ryan a ton of credit because because he's

918
00:43:41,639 --> 00:43:43,719
not on the offensive line and he's not a receiver,

919
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,039
therefore he doesn't get thrown into either one of those groups,

920
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:49,320
but he should because he's basically a sixth offensive lineman.

921
00:43:49,519 --> 00:43:52,280
And so it's Carson Ryan's credit as well. Like, that's

922
00:43:52,360 --> 00:43:55,119
part of the reason that Lj's able to get a

923
00:43:55,119 --> 00:43:58,280
lot of these downfield plays is because the dbs who

924
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:02,400
normally would be there have been taken out by Chase Roberts,

925
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,400
by Cody Hagen, by Parker Kingston. And the nature of

926
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:09,320
the wide receiver position is I run fifty routes a game,

927
00:44:09,639 --> 00:44:11,960
and I only get targeted on five or six of them,

928
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:14,719
So I'm basically just doing cardio out here. That's why

929
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:16,960
they have such a deeper mentality. But you don't ever

930
00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:18,400
see that with any of the guys in this wide

931
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:18,960
receiver room.

932
00:44:19,039 --> 00:44:19,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

933
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,639
Speaker 6: Well, I think it goes down to the scheme because

934
00:44:21,679 --> 00:44:23,880
Bayu runs a lot of jet sweeps. If you're gonna

935
00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:26,559
run a jet sweep effectively, you have to have good

936
00:44:26,559 --> 00:44:29,519
wide receiver blocking. Yes, it's almost more important than like

937
00:44:29,679 --> 00:44:31,960
some parts of the offensive line on the jet sweep.

938
00:44:32,199 --> 00:44:35,760
I would say, like that the the side you're coming from,

939
00:44:36,679 --> 00:44:38,920
that offensive line, it's important to block those guys, but

940
00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,880
it's not as important as the wide receivers on the

941
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:42,960
side you're going to.

942
00:44:43,159 --> 00:44:43,840
Speaker 3: One hundred percent.

943
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:48,079
Speaker 7: So yeah, yeah, the wide receivers and Carson Ryan have

944
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,599
been a massive part of the run game too, in

945
00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:52,159
the success of this run game, and.

946
00:44:52,159 --> 00:44:54,280
Speaker 3: They deserve a lot of credit. Matt Campbell.

947
00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:58,400
Speaker 7: Number three, how important is the line of scrimmage gonna

948
00:44:58,400 --> 00:44:59,159
be in this one?

949
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:00,639
Speaker 3: Oh?

950
00:45:00,679 --> 00:45:02,679
Speaker 12: I mean as big as it can be, you know.

951
00:45:02,880 --> 00:45:05,920
I think the reality of it is you're playing one

952
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,760
of the most veteran and complete O line in D

953
00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:11,559
lines that we face this year, and so they're big,

954
00:45:11,599 --> 00:45:14,400
they're physical, and really they've done a great job in

955
00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:17,119
all the games of winning the line of scrimmage, and

956
00:45:17,159 --> 00:45:19,159
we're gonna have to be ready to compete in those areas.

957
00:45:19,159 --> 00:45:20,679
Speaker 1: For sure, one of.

958
00:45:20,679 --> 00:45:26,039
Speaker 3: The most complete and veteran lines we will see this season.

959
00:45:26,159 --> 00:45:28,480
Speaker 7: And honestly, even at that point, you're wondering is he's

960
00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,039
talking about the offense or the defense, because either way,

961
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:34,320
both sides of the ball in the trenches have showed up.

962
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:36,960
That was the thing that impressed me, I think maybe

963
00:45:37,039 --> 00:45:41,559
the most about the Utah game and especially the Arizona game,

964
00:45:42,159 --> 00:45:45,679
especially at the beginning, was it felt like no matter

965
00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,840
how many yards LJ went for, it felt like this

966
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:51,239
offensive line could get like a two or three yard

967
00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:56,440
push guaranteed every time. And clearly Matt Campbell recognized that

968
00:45:56,880 --> 00:45:59,840
where I would be worried if I was Iowa State

969
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,440
because I think we all agree like Iowa State's offense

970
00:46:02,559 --> 00:46:03,800
is not the problem here.

971
00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:05,559
Speaker 3: It's the defense.

972
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:10,079
Speaker 7: The defense, and given all the injuries, Big Citrus our

973
00:46:10,119 --> 00:46:13,639
guy Dominique Orange is probably not going to play. I

974
00:46:13,639 --> 00:46:16,639
think he was doubtful on the availability report last time

975
00:46:16,679 --> 00:46:20,840
I checked. Iowa State rush defense is seventh in the conference.

976
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,519
It's right around where Utah was when boy, you played

977
00:46:23,519 --> 00:46:25,920
them last week. But then on the offensive side of

978
00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:29,559
the ball, the Iowa State rushing offense is ninth as well,

979
00:46:29,599 --> 00:46:31,880
so kind of middle of the pack on both ends.

980
00:46:32,599 --> 00:46:34,280
I feel for Matt Campbell because I like him. I

981
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,280
think he's a nice guy. But I do think this

982
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:40,400
is a game where bou should have an advantage in

983
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:44,159
the trenches. It definitely on the BYU's offensive side of

984
00:46:44,159 --> 00:46:47,000
the ball. Defensively, I think it'll be a little bit

985
00:46:47,079 --> 00:46:49,440
more of a fight, but I think that they should

986
00:46:49,519 --> 00:46:51,280
They shouldn't get dominated.

987
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:51,920
Speaker 3: On either one of those sides.

988
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think I think BAU probably has the advantage

989
00:46:56,119 --> 00:46:57,119
in the line of scrimmage.

990
00:46:57,400 --> 00:47:00,480
Speaker 3: Just you mentioned the injuries and the scheme.

991
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,559
Speaker 6: I aloways State likes to put three defensive linemen on

992
00:47:03,599 --> 00:47:07,719
that and on the on the defensive line, yep. And

993
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:09,320
that makes it a lot easier for b Why you

994
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:11,280
to win the line of scrimmage up there? I know

995
00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:14,280
they've got some good linebackers that they've got some linebacker health.

996
00:47:14,119 --> 00:47:16,639
Speaker 3: Issues too, yes they do. So it's just a.

997
00:47:16,639 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 6: Really beat up Iowa State team, and I think that

998
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:22,639
gives BYU a big edge. And when BYU wins the

999
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:24,559
last time, B why you lost the game where they

1000
00:47:24,599 --> 00:47:26,679
won the line of scrimmage. I mean, you win the

1001
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:28,880
line of scrimmage, you win football games most times. The

1002
00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:31,199
only time I can really think of that as probably

1003
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:35,440
Boise State twenty twenty one because we copped up the

1004
00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:39,119
ball so many times, right, But when BYU wins a

1005
00:47:39,159 --> 00:47:40,719
lot of scrimmage, they usually win.

1006
00:47:40,599 --> 00:47:45,079
Speaker 3: The football game. What a nickname, by the way, Big Citrus.

1007
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 7: And look he earns it because if you go look

1008
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:49,760
at that guy, I think he's like six four, three

1009
00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:52,519
point thirty. He looks like he reminds me of like

1010
00:47:52,639 --> 00:47:55,360
Jalen Carter Jordan Davis at Georgia back in the day.

1011
00:47:55,639 --> 00:47:57,800
But uh yeah, shout out to Big Citrus. I'm happy

1012
00:47:57,800 --> 00:47:59,920
he's not playing. But I'm sad because I really like

1013
00:48:00,039 --> 00:48:03,199
the guy and again, incredible nickname, all right, Matt Campbell.

1014
00:48:03,559 --> 00:48:08,199
Roco seemed to take his performance very personally postgame after Colorado.

1015
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:12,159
How do you help your guys balance taking accountability while

1016
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:13,559
maintain any confidence.

1017
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:18,360
Speaker 12: Well, I think that's the great thing about you know, Roco,

1018
00:48:18,519 --> 00:48:21,320
and I think you know, I would say, are all

1019
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:24,079
of our leadership here like it means the world to us?

1020
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:26,679
And you know, I don't think any of us want to,

1021
00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:29,519
you know, put our team in a situation where we

1022
00:48:29,559 --> 00:48:32,159
don't feel like we're doing our best. And I think

1023
00:48:32,159 --> 00:48:34,320
that's the that's the hard thing about a guy like Rocco.

1024
00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:36,880
Roco has given us every opportunity to win every game

1025
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,719
we played, and that guy puts it on his shoulders

1026
00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:41,440
no different than I feel like I put it on

1027
00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:43,800
my shoulders and coach Haycock puts it on his shoulders

1028
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:46,519
and Mouse puts it on his shoulders. You know, you

1029
00:48:46,639 --> 00:48:49,239
want to have leaders that want to take responsibility, and

1030
00:48:49,639 --> 00:48:51,760
unfortunately we're probably in a world where I don't know

1031
00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:54,000
if the leaders want to take the responsibility. But in

1032
00:48:54,039 --> 00:48:56,639
this building, the leaders want to take responsibility and lead

1033
00:48:56,639 --> 00:48:59,159
from the front, and so I'm way more grateful to

1034
00:48:59,199 --> 00:49:01,079
have those kind of guys in this football program. It

1035
00:49:01,079 --> 00:49:02,519
means we're going to work really hard to try to

1036
00:49:02,519 --> 00:49:03,280
get things fixed.

1037
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:04,480
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1038
00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:06,519
Speaker 7: I think that's the type of person you want to

1039
00:49:06,519 --> 00:49:10,239
have in your life, at your job, wherever it is is.

1040
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:12,519
Speaker 3: Sometimes it's a blessing and a curse.

1041
00:49:12,559 --> 00:49:15,079
Speaker 7: I think accountability, but I'll always take the guy who

1042
00:49:15,119 --> 00:49:18,760
will take extra accountability and me have to prop him up.

1043
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,400
Then the opposite where you have to force someone to

1044
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:22,920
take accountability that they don't want to.

1045
00:49:23,039 --> 00:49:25,199
Speaker 3: Shout out to Rock Gobeck number five.

1046
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 7: In the last two games, you've accounted for almost half

1047
00:49:28,159 --> 00:49:29,760
of your penalties all season.

1048
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:33,239
Speaker 3: How'd you address that in the bye week? Yeah, I

1049
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:33,639
don't know.

1050
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:36,119
Speaker 12: I think those are things where, you know, a little

1051
00:49:36,159 --> 00:49:37,880
bit of it is our guys are pressing, you know.

1052
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:39,679
I think a little bit of it is guys are

1053
00:49:40,159 --> 00:49:43,599
you know, trying to, you know, go make something happen

1054
00:49:43,679 --> 00:49:45,920
instead of just kind of being man one play at

1055
00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:48,480
a time, and that happens sometimes. And again I think

1056
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,119
it goes back to man our kids care. I think

1057
00:49:51,119 --> 00:49:53,320
there's a high end investment and you know, I think

1058
00:49:53,320 --> 00:49:55,239
those are things that we work really hard at and

1059
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,559
how we practice. And the only way I really know

1060
00:49:57,599 --> 00:49:59,960
how to address those things is the detail in which

1061
00:50:00,079 --> 00:50:02,280
we practice. And you know, it's really what we've tried

1062
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:05,159
to get our sinker teeth back into is the fundamentals

1063
00:50:05,159 --> 00:50:07,719
it takes to win football games. And again, we've been

1064
00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:10,119
probably a hair off and how we've won games for

1065
00:50:10,159 --> 00:50:13,039
the last two weeks and been really working to try

1066
00:50:13,079 --> 00:50:15,679
to get those things corrected. But you know, that's the

1067
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:17,719
nice thing is they're all correctable. Those are things that

1068
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:19,480
we can correct and we can control.

1069
00:50:20,079 --> 00:50:22,519
Speaker 7: This is an Iowa State team who had a lot

1070
00:50:22,639 --> 00:50:26,199
of things to work on in this by week, whether

1071
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:30,800
it's defensive depth, whether it's injuries, whether it's finding a kicker.

1072
00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:32,639
Speaker 3: They got a lot of things to work on.

1073
00:50:32,679 --> 00:50:35,880
Speaker 7: Speaking of finding a kicker, though, what's the offensive decision

1074
00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:39,000
making process like when you don't really feel like you

1075
00:50:39,119 --> 00:50:41,039
have a kicker because of all the injuries that.

1076
00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:41,599
Speaker 3: Are power up.

1077
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:46,920
Speaker 12: It's certainly a unique challenge, right, So I appreciate the question,

1078
00:50:47,039 --> 00:50:50,639
and it's unique. But again, and as I told our kids,

1079
00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:53,039
that is why they call you team, right, this is

1080
00:50:53,079 --> 00:50:56,559
a team sport, and you know the reality of it

1081
00:50:56,639 --> 00:51:00,719
is we handled it against Arizona. We probably they didn't

1082
00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:02,880
handle it as well as we needed to in those

1083
00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:06,400
other games. And again, those are things that that is

1084
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:09,599
a unique challenge to it, and so there's nothing you

1085
00:51:09,639 --> 00:51:11,880
can do about it other than man, pick up, pick

1086
00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:13,840
it up. We got to be those are things that

1087
00:51:14,159 --> 00:51:16,159
some of those things are self inflicted though, like I said,

1088
00:51:16,199 --> 00:51:18,559
and man, those are things we have to clean up.

1089
00:51:18,559 --> 00:51:20,599
When you know this covering us as much as you

1090
00:51:20,679 --> 00:51:23,280
have is when we're really good, our detail is usually

1091
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:25,679
pretty during good and when we're not, you know, our

1092
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:28,639
details a hair off. And those are things we can control.

1093
00:51:28,679 --> 00:51:31,679
And so there's no excuse, there's no man would have,

1094
00:51:31,679 --> 00:51:33,719
could have should like. We had every opportunity to make

1095
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:36,119
it happen and we didn't. And so I think getting

1096
00:51:36,159 --> 00:51:38,960
those things fixed are really important no matter who's in

1097
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,599
the kicking game or what situation it is. That's that's

1098
00:51:41,639 --> 00:51:44,440
that is team football. And so it's been a unique challenge,

1099
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:46,360
but that's part of it. And I think in some

1100
00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:48,960
ways we did some really good things. In other ways, man,

1101
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,199
we needed to be better and we just weren't. And again,

1102
00:51:51,599 --> 00:51:53,079
you can put that on me first, and I think

1103
00:51:53,079 --> 00:51:54,559
it's a trickled down effect a little bit.

1104
00:51:55,039 --> 00:51:58,719
Speaker 7: Yeah, we don't fully know exactly what the kick kicking

1105
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,039
situation is going to be like for IBA State, we

1106
00:52:01,079 --> 00:52:03,639
know they have a ton of guys injured.

1107
00:52:04,079 --> 00:52:06,119
Speaker 3: I do wonder if that does give you an.

1108
00:52:06,079 --> 00:52:09,559
Speaker 7: Advantage though, if you're this BYU defense, knowing, hey, more

1109
00:52:09,599 --> 00:52:12,000
times than not, they're probably gonna go for it on

1110
00:52:12,079 --> 00:52:14,360
fourth and I guess maybe that makes it a little

1111
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,320
more difficult for your defense because you know it's four

1112
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:19,159
down every time, and you know, just winning three downs

1113
00:52:19,199 --> 00:52:22,039
doesn't guarantee you this is a team who's probably gonna

1114
00:52:22,039 --> 00:52:24,199
be more likely to go four down football all the

1115
00:52:24,199 --> 00:52:25,000
way down the field.

1116
00:52:25,119 --> 00:52:27,119
Speaker 3: And I think it's that's why it was so important.

1117
00:52:27,159 --> 00:52:29,119
Speaker 6: Another reason why I was so important for BYU to

1118
00:52:29,199 --> 00:52:31,880
do so well against Utah on that on those fourth downs.

1119
00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:35,960
So that's a huge confidence builder, you know, like, hey,

1120
00:52:36,039 --> 00:52:37,960
Utah was a good fourth down team. I think they're

1121
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:40,360
still top in the country and fourth down and you

1122
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:43,320
stuffed them to a twenty percent conversion rate, and you're going,

1123
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:46,199
no matter how good this team is on these fourth downs,

1124
00:52:46,519 --> 00:52:47,239
we are better.

1125
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:49,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good point.

1126
00:52:49,039 --> 00:52:51,039
Speaker 7: And honestly, when you look at it, like we're looking

1127
00:52:51,119 --> 00:52:53,280
at the Siowa State team saying, wow, they can't kick

1128
00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,119
field goals, And then you look at BYU the last

1129
00:52:56,199 --> 00:52:58,920
couple of weeks, and you look at Utah last week

1130
00:52:59,079 --> 00:53:02,159
again not that not same situation because BA is fully

1131
00:53:02,199 --> 00:53:05,599
capable of kicking the field goals, they just haven't. And

1132
00:53:06,039 --> 00:53:08,559
Utah we don't really know if they were fully capable.

1133
00:53:08,599 --> 00:53:11,159
We think they were, but clearly Kyle Whittingham didn't, so

1134
00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:13,880
they didn't. So maybe this is more familiar than we

1135
00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:16,679
thought it was going to be. Matt Gampbell, how do

1136
00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:20,079
you take this bye week and learn from these two losses?

1137
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:22,639
Speaker 3: Will not allowing your team to wallow in it?

1138
00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:28,440
Speaker 12: I think that's where I can say what I want

1139
00:53:28,440 --> 00:53:31,119
and I've said this forever, right, I mean, at this

1140
00:53:31,199 --> 00:53:32,880
point of the season, they're shutting you off.

1141
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:35,280
Speaker 3: I don't care who you are or where you're at.

1142
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:37,719
Speaker 12: And that's where the locker room and the leadership and

1143
00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:40,199
the veteran leadership in that locker room has got to

1144
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:43,480
be about what's right. And I mean we're living in

1145
00:53:43,519 --> 00:53:46,039
like a reality show now in college athletics, right, it's

1146
00:53:46,199 --> 00:53:50,679
reality show USA. And if you don't have player driven leadership,

1147
00:53:50,679 --> 00:53:52,800
then I just don't know how you have the focus

1148
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:54,440
to get through the entirety of the year. And I

1149
00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:56,639
think that's why I said from the beginning of the season,

1150
00:53:57,039 --> 00:54:01,639
toughness is not physical toughness physical, it's mental toughness. Can

1151
00:54:01,679 --> 00:54:04,840
you mentally stay together, stay at the task in hand,

1152
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,519
and keep driving forward? And I think the great thing

1153
00:54:07,559 --> 00:54:09,760
here is we've had so much of that the last

1154
00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:12,840
couple of years, and man, the great leaders have passed

1155
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:14,920
that down to the next group and passed it down

1156
00:54:14,960 --> 00:54:17,360
to the next group that it's really rewarding to be

1157
00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:19,880
somewhere where you can kind of lean back and say, hey,

1158
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:22,480
we've been here, we understand what this looks like. How

1159
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:25,159
do we keep moving ourselves forward? So you know, I

1160
00:54:25,199 --> 00:54:26,960
think you just talk about those things. Those are things

1161
00:54:27,039 --> 00:54:30,199
you better have talked about, honestly before the season even started,

1162
00:54:30,719 --> 00:54:32,760
because I think if you just get to it and say, oh, man,

1163
00:54:32,800 --> 00:54:34,559
we're here, and how are you going to get through

1164
00:54:34,559 --> 00:54:36,239
it now, then I think you're a big mistake. And

1165
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:38,119
those are things I think we try to talk about

1166
00:54:38,199 --> 00:54:41,000
through Man the fall, I say this, every year, You're

1167
00:54:41,039 --> 00:54:43,760
going to have adversity, You're going to have tough days. Man,

1168
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:46,960
our world here, that's just how we're going to live

1169
00:54:47,199 --> 00:54:49,840
and how we respond to it defines who we become.

1170
00:54:49,880 --> 00:54:52,039
And yeah, those are the crossroad moments.

1171
00:54:52,079 --> 00:54:52,239
Speaker 3: Man.

1172
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:54,880
Speaker 12: How do you respond when it's not going well? How

1173
00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:57,280
do you pull yourself up and keep moving forward? So

1174
00:54:57,719 --> 00:54:59,639
I look forward to the challenge. What I love about it,

1175
00:55:00,039 --> 00:55:01,880
what I love about our kids. But you know you're

1176
00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:03,840
going to hang your hat on our great leadership in

1177
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:06,079
that locker room. And we're really fortunate to have great kids.

1178
00:55:06,119 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 7: Right now, man, I'll tell you what if I had

1179
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:12,000
to have my son play for someone and it wasn't

1180
00:55:12,039 --> 00:55:14,679
Kalanie Sataki. The more I listen to this, I'm like,

1181
00:55:15,119 --> 00:55:17,400
it might be Matt Campbell. And I'll tell you even more.

1182
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:20,079
If I was an Iowa State fan and I was

1183
00:55:20,119 --> 00:55:22,360
worried about coming off back to back losses and a

1184
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:24,400
bye week, now headed into a BYU team that looks

1185
00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:25,800
very tough, I'll tell you what.

1186
00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:28,519
Speaker 6: This is a Matt Campbell guy. I would go into

1187
00:55:28,559 --> 00:55:30,559
battle for this guy. If you want a leader, you

1188
00:55:30,599 --> 00:55:31,320
want Matt Campbell.

1189
00:55:31,360 --> 00:55:34,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, look, I'm this is the BYU show.

1190
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:34,760
He is.

1191
00:55:35,079 --> 00:55:37,559
Speaker 7: He is convincing me that Iowa State is a team

1192
00:55:37,599 --> 00:55:43,000
to absolutely be believed in. Matt Campbell, what do you

1193
00:55:43,079 --> 00:55:44,559
see at a Bear Bachmeyer.

1194
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,760
Speaker 12: Yeah, he's really tough. You know, I would just say

1195
00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:51,400
the first, the first word that comes to my mind.

1196
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:54,920
He's he's just tough. He's gritty, He's tough man. I

1197
00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:57,679
really love his ability to extend plays. I think he

1198
00:55:57,719 --> 00:56:01,320
does a great job of that. He's physically tough that

1199
00:56:01,400 --> 00:56:05,039
he can almost, you know, literally run the football in

1200
00:56:05,079 --> 00:56:07,079
the A and B gap throughout the football game and

1201
00:56:07,119 --> 00:56:09,440
have the ability on the next play to make a

1202
00:56:09,440 --> 00:56:11,840
great throw on the outside ten yards deep. Like that's

1203
00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:13,800
hard to do, you know, when you're physically running the

1204
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:17,400
football like that. So really impressive in terms of just

1205
00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:20,599
his mannerisms, his toughness, and you can tell that football

1206
00:56:20,599 --> 00:56:23,119
team believes in him. He's got great leadership ability, and

1207
00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:25,320
you know, credit to him. He's really done a great

1208
00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:25,920
job this year.

1209
00:56:26,719 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 3: Bear Bachmeyer has been awesome.

1210
00:56:29,639 --> 00:56:31,320
Speaker 7: I had this stop the other night and I was like,

1211
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:34,400
you know, I don't know what Bear's college career will

1212
00:56:34,400 --> 00:56:35,960
look like, but if he gets the NFL and they

1213
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:38,360
don't want him as a quarterback, why don't they just

1214
00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:39,519
make him a running back?

1215
00:56:39,599 --> 00:56:42,199
Speaker 3: And I and the guy back? Yeah?

1216
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:45,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, look, make him like a Peyton Hillis type.

1217
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:48,119
Peyton Hillis is the guy who came to mind for me,

1218
00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:52,239
uh six' one two forty, which frankly is pretty close

1219
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:54,320
to what Bear is. So, you know, if if he

1220
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,920
is tough, and I'm glad that Matt Campbell noticed that

1221
00:56:57,360 --> 00:56:57,960
last thing.

1222
00:56:58,519 --> 00:57:01,199
Speaker 3: Matt, what are your keys success this week?

1223
00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:05,639
Speaker 12: I don't think it's really changes too much with us.

1224
00:57:05,679 --> 00:57:07,760
You know, I don't care what game it's been. We

1225
00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:10,519
got to win the turnover margin number one. You know,

1226
00:57:10,599 --> 00:57:13,480
we got to do a great job of creating explosives

1227
00:57:13,480 --> 00:57:16,199
and eliminating explosive plays. And then you know, I think

1228
00:57:16,199 --> 00:57:18,159
from a special team standpoint, we got to be able

1229
00:57:18,159 --> 00:57:20,519
to do a great job of playing what we're capable

1230
00:57:20,519 --> 00:57:23,199
of playing in special teams. And so I think those

1231
00:57:23,239 --> 00:57:26,159
three things are still pillars of our success. And you

1232
00:57:26,159 --> 00:57:28,079
know there'll be pillars in this football game for sure,

1233
00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:30,519
that they will.

1234
00:57:32,599 --> 00:57:34,360
Speaker 3: That they will.

1235
