the TCU horn Frogs six and three heading into this

25
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:40,799
uh this.

26
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 2: Rivalry game of sorts BYU.

27
00:01:43,239 --> 00:01:46,159
Speaker 3: I believe it's five and seven all time against the

28
00:01:46,239 --> 00:01:49,239
TCU horn Frogs. So and guess what. TCU is on

29
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:53,400
a five game winning streak. BYU's familiar with Sunny Dykes.

30
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:58,359
Sunny Dikes is familiar BYU. Sunny Dykes actually discussed this

31
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,000
BYU matchup earlier this week.

32
00:02:00,079 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 2: We want to play the sound bites for you.

33
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 3: This press conference sound is he preps his team for

34
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,960
the b YU Cougars taking off this BA Cougar football

35
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,919
team under the lights of level. Enjoy the sound and

36
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,400
the commentary from head coach of TCU, Studdied Dikes.

37
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, b Y, you you know, it's really a number

38
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:21,759
of things.

39
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:22,120
Speaker 5: I think.

40
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 4: You know, they're they're a big, physical team. It's a

41
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,599
typical BYU team. You know, they're always built up front,

42
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,719
you go back, and that's always been their history, and

43
00:02:32,759 --> 00:02:33,759
it looks.

44
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:35,479
Speaker 5: Like that that kind of team.

45
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 4: You know, they're physical upfront, they're two linebackers. I think

46
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,800
are two of the it's the best two linebackers I

47
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,919
think on a team in the Big twelve. You know,

48
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,039
both those guys are just they're really really good at

49
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,439
what they do. They're fantastic blitzers. They they're long, they're athletic,

50
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,280
they can cover run sideline the sideline.

51
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 5: They don't give up a ton of big plays.

52
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 6: You know.

53
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,639
Speaker 4: I think that's one thing that that they've been consistent

54
00:02:59,719 --> 00:03:01,680
doing that They're going to show the quarterback a lot

55
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,960
of different pictures, going to be hard for him to

56
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,400
get settled in and know exactly what you're going to see.

57
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,159
And they're you know, experienced, they got tons of experience.

58
00:03:11,159 --> 00:03:13,199
You know a lot of the guys that we went

59
00:03:13,199 --> 00:03:15,960
back and looked at the twenty three film, you know

60
00:03:16,039 --> 00:03:18,080
when when we were played against them, and they got

61
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,800
a lot of guys that are still playing they've played

62
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,639
on that team and you know, just experienced players and so,

63
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,000
you know, just an overall really really impressive football team.

64
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:28,599
On both sides of the football. They're kind of the

65
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,759
same way on offense. Really, they do a good job

66
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,680
of taking care of the football offensively, very very seldom

67
00:03:35,719 --> 00:03:38,159
turned the ball over. You know, you turn the film

68
00:03:38,159 --> 00:03:41,319
on last week against Texas Tech, and you know, you

69
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,240
look at the score and you kind of expect Texas

70
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,680
Tech to to dominate them, and it wasn't the case

71
00:03:45,719 --> 00:03:47,159
at all. I mean, they was just came down to

72
00:03:47,199 --> 00:03:51,000
turnovers and you know, BYU had a couple of turnovers

73
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,159
on their side of the field and led to some

74
00:03:53,199 --> 00:03:55,400
short fields by Texas Tech, and Tech had a really

75
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,400
difficult time putting the ball in the end zone. You know,

76
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,879
they're they're one of the best teams defensively in the

77
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:04,800
entry in red zone defense. I think that's probably one

78
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,719
of the biggest strengths they have is they're excellent in

79
00:04:07,759 --> 00:04:12,319
the red zone. Very difficult again to run the ball against. Typically,

80
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,280
that's kind of a correlation between how good are you

81
00:04:15,319 --> 00:04:17,160
at run defense and how good is your red zone

82
00:04:17,199 --> 00:04:17,879
defense going to be?

83
00:04:17,959 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 5: And and you know.

84
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:23,079
Speaker 4: They're, like I said, they're probably the best team in

85
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,000
the league in terms of red zone defense.

86
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:26,720
Speaker 7: Thoughts on.

87
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I've impressed with how he's played. I mean,

88
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,800
I think that he's shown a ton of maturity. You know,

89
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,399
I think that's what stands out is just you know,

90
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:40,879
he plays within himself. He doesn't try to do too

91
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,040
much you can tell he's got a lot of confidence

92
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,240
in his teammates. He's got a lot of confidence in

93
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:52,480
the defense. He doesn't play impulsive, you know, he just

94
00:04:52,519 --> 00:04:56,800
makes really really good, mature decisions with the football. They've

95
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,360
done a really nice job of managing him and getting

96
00:04:59,399 --> 00:05:01,920
him to play with that kind of confidence. They've got

97
00:05:01,959 --> 00:05:04,399
a strong run game and that helps him.

98
00:05:04,439 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 5: But he's you know, he's really good with the ball.

99
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 4: He's a big, physical guy, but he's a better thrower

100
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,199
than I think probably he gets credit for him. He's

101
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,399
he's uh, when you give him a clean pocket, I mean,

102
00:05:14,399 --> 00:05:16,439
he can step up and and throw the ball as

103
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,839
well as anybody. So just been really impressed with the

104
00:05:19,879 --> 00:05:23,240
way he's performed this season, and to do it as

105
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,040
a young player, I think is really a credit to

106
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,319
b why you staff, and his maturity and and just

107
00:05:28,399 --> 00:05:37,199
kind of their program. I'm trying to think that we

108
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:42,439
who we've played, that they're similar a little bit like

109
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:47,000
SMU probably, you know, just in terms of some of

110
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,560
the some of the run game and some of the

111
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,959
things they do, and and the quarterbacks a dual threat

112
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,920
guy and can make plays and and is a really

113
00:05:54,959 --> 00:05:58,759
really good player. And they've got good skill. Uh so similar.

114
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:03,399
You know, they're probably a little bit more physical, a

115
00:06:03,399 --> 00:06:06,480
little bit more of a downhill uh team maybe than

116
00:06:06,519 --> 00:06:09,319
then smu is and quarterbacks a little bit different kind

117
00:06:09,319 --> 00:06:11,519
of player, a bit pretty similar in time in terms

118
00:06:11,519 --> 00:06:12,480
of their approach.

119
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:15,399
Speaker 8: The days.

120
00:06:15,439 --> 00:06:18,199
Speaker 7: You've always had a.

121
00:06:17,199 --> 00:06:20,759
Speaker 4: Difficult Yeah, yeah, I mean go back to Todd Christiansen

122
00:06:20,879 --> 00:06:22,519
or some of those guys way back if you want to.

123
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,759
But yeah, I mean by us always had great tight ends.

124
00:06:24,759 --> 00:06:29,120
They've always been productive, they've always used them. It's just

125
00:06:29,199 --> 00:06:31,439
they've they've always had those kind of guys that that

126
00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:35,000
were physical at the point of attack, but also you know,

127
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:36,839
really effective in the in the passing game.

128
00:06:38,399 --> 00:06:41,959
Speaker 7: When you look at last week and you talk.

129
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:48,040
Speaker 4: About things, yeah, yeah, I mean it's it's turning the

130
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,040
football over. I mean that's the bottom line, you know,

131
00:06:50,079 --> 00:06:52,839
it's you. And there was some more mistakes beyond that.

132
00:06:52,879 --> 00:06:55,160
I mean, obviously we missed uh we missed a twenty

133
00:06:55,160 --> 00:07:00,560
four yard field goal, so you can't afford to do that.

134
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:01,439
Speaker 5: That was costly.

135
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 4: You know, we had we had some bad communication in

136
00:07:05,519 --> 00:07:08,240
the first half in the run game. You know, we

137
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,399
turned some a lot of guys loose. We had way

138
00:07:11,439 --> 00:07:15,920
too many negative plays in the run game. You know,

139
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:18,519
once cold Deery kind of came in in the second half,

140
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,160
it took him a while to get loose. We didn't

141
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,560
think he was going to be able to play, and

142
00:07:22,759 --> 00:07:24,920
we felt like we had to play him, and he

143
00:07:25,079 --> 00:07:27,399
was very effective. Once he came in, we got a

144
00:07:27,399 --> 00:07:30,399
little bit more settled in. You know, our line calls

145
00:07:30,399 --> 00:07:33,240
were more consistent, We started getting a hat on the

146
00:07:33,279 --> 00:07:35,040
right people, and once that happened, we were able to

147
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,600
run the football much more effectively. I mean, you know,

148
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:41,079
Jeremy Paine averaged almost nine yards of carry, and so

149
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,439
once we started to move in the football, then you know,

150
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,639
we had two fifteen plus play drives, which is hard

151
00:07:48,639 --> 00:07:51,199
to do, and you know, we started executing and moving

152
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:57,839
the ball. You know, obviously the punt return was a killer,

153
00:07:58,959 --> 00:08:01,560
and so you know, you we were minus ten points

154
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,399
and special teams, so that was obviously a difference in

155
00:08:04,439 --> 00:08:07,120
the ball game. And then even after the part return,

156
00:08:07,199 --> 00:08:09,000
we got the ball, we drove it down, got it

157
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,319
down to the fifteen yard line and fumbled and so

158
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,120
you know, look, we know the deal. We've lost three

159
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,040
games this year, and all three of those games we've

160
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,959
had three turnovers and and if we don't turn the

161
00:08:18,959 --> 00:08:20,800
football over, we're going to have a chance to win

162
00:08:21,399 --> 00:08:24,040
against anybody that we play. And if we do turn

163
00:08:24,079 --> 00:08:27,279
it over, we're going to have a difficult time beating

164
00:08:27,319 --> 00:08:29,439
anybody that we play. And so that's that's where it

165
00:08:29,439 --> 00:08:32,279
comes down to. And you know, look, there's it's like

166
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,200
anything else. I mean, we coach it as hard as

167
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:37,440
we can. The players are aware of it. I mean

168
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:43,840
we you know, we we do circuits, we do all

169
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,360
kinds of things to ensure ball security. And and you know,

170
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:48,840
you got to give I always take credit. A guy

171
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,679
made a really good play on the ball. Guy he

172
00:08:50,759 --> 00:08:53,919
punched it out of paying his hands at the end,

173
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:56,639
and you know, we weren't able to stop him on

174
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:58,720
fourth down, they got a first down, ran the clock

175
00:08:58,759 --> 00:09:01,639
out for all intentsive purposes. So it's a you know

176
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:03,200
a lot of plays in that game that we'd like

177
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,440
to have over. We're up seventeen to six and and

178
00:09:06,879 --> 00:09:08,960
felt pretty good about our opportunity to win the game

179
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:11,320
at that point, and then had some some critical mistakes

180
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:18,080
down the stretch that cost us. Yeah, we've got to

181
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,960
it's gonna be really important. I mean, that's it's always important,

182
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,039
but it's gonna be particularly important anytime you play on

183
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,919
the road. You know, you just have to You've got

184
00:09:25,919 --> 00:09:28,559
to settle in more quickly than we have offensively. You know,

185
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,080
we've got to do a better job early in the

186
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,679
game of stringing some plays together and getting some drives

187
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,039
and scoring points. It's gonna be really important for us

188
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:39,519
to do that early in the game this week.

189
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 7: For sure. You're does that change might.

190
00:09:46,399 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 4: Play Not really, No, you know, we're we're going to

191
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,200
try to put the best guys out there that we can.

192
00:09:54,039 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 5: And try trying to win some games.

193
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 4: I mean, the only guy you might see a little

194
00:09:56,759 --> 00:10:01,759
Terry Shelton this week at outside receiver. You know, he's

195
00:10:01,799 --> 00:10:05,000
he's just really practiced at a high level. We feel

196
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:06,720
like we need to give Jordan a little bit of

197
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,879
a break. You know, we've pretty much played every single

198
00:10:09,919 --> 00:10:14,279
play with Eric and Jordan outside and that's really difficult

199
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,639
for those guys to do. And so, you know, Terry

200
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:20,440
is somebody that we think is has you know, earned

201
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,200
the right to get on the field, and we're excited

202
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,039
to see what he can do. And we've put him

203
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:28,600
in some situations. You know, we had a kind of

204
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,080
a scrimmage on Sunday with some of our young players,

205
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,000
and he performed at a really high level. And so

206
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,720
I think we all have a lot of confidence in

207
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,159
him and looking forward to, you know, seeing what he

208
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:39,039
can do to help us win.

209
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 9: Oh ask you this after the game on Saturday and

210
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:46,039
going back and watching the field. Now, well, there are

211
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,759
some situations where you look back at Josh and felt

212
00:10:49,759 --> 00:10:50,879
that he should have run.

213
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,759
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean there were some opportunities he could have yeah. Yeah.

214
00:10:53,759 --> 00:10:55,919
Speaker 4: And now part of it was, you know, look, he's

215
00:10:55,919 --> 00:10:57,879
pretty beat up, you know what I mean. I mean

216
00:10:57,919 --> 00:11:03,000
he coming off of the uh, the West Virginia game.

217
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,480
You know, he's pretty banged up. And I think he's

218
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,159
probably like anybody else. I mean, he's a little bit

219
00:11:08,279 --> 00:11:12,399
aware of the fact that he was, you know, kind

220
00:11:12,399 --> 00:11:15,360
of hanging on and hung on in that game, and

221
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:18,120
you know, it was was not fully healthy last week,

222
00:11:18,159 --> 00:11:20,840
and I mean very few quarterbacks are. I think he

223
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:25,240
feels a lot better now than he did. But yes,

224
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,679
there were some opportunities for him to do that. He's

225
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,759
been encouraged to do that, and I think he's got

226
00:11:29,799 --> 00:11:32,639
to pick his spots and and uh, you know, and

227
00:11:32,799 --> 00:11:35,080
be able to to to convert some first downs for

228
00:11:35,159 --> 00:11:39,000
us and keep some drives alive and do some things

229
00:11:38,799 --> 00:11:40,000
that third.

230
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, we could.

231
00:11:45,279 --> 00:11:46,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just again it's kind of the same thing

232
00:11:46,799 --> 00:11:48,840
with some of those guys have been a little banged up.

233
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,240
You know, Lafayette is out. He will to play this week,

234
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,480
and so you know, between the three of them, you know,

235
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,759
we're trying to to to keep him uh, you know,

236
00:11:59,799 --> 00:12:06,200
get him healthy and keep him healthy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yep, yep,

237
00:12:06,279 --> 00:12:09,200
he'll play this week. He's fine, and he'll be you know,

238
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:10,159
he'll be out there playing.

239
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,919
Speaker 7: Is it kind of surprising because we saw earlier in

240
00:12:14,919 --> 00:12:17,399
the year to day Mama was running the football. Is

241
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,399
something he's just getting on them?

242
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I think, you know, it's like anything else.

243
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:23,919
You just you want those guys to be able to

244
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:25,720
get a rhythm. And so when you're when you're out

245
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:29,000
there and there's three four backs, sometimes it's hard for

246
00:12:29,039 --> 00:12:29,799
those guys to get.

247
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 5: Into a rhythm.

248
00:12:31,279 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 3: You know.

249
00:12:31,519 --> 00:12:35,919
Speaker 4: We'll see how Kavorian responds this week. You know, I

250
00:12:35,919 --> 00:12:39,679
would I would call him questionable you know for the

251
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,000
game probably on Saturday, and we'll see how he does.

252
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,399
Speaker 5: But yeah, as as.

253
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 4: You know, guys get banged up, obviously they will have

254
00:12:49,759 --> 00:12:51,639
a chance to get out there. And John Demmon has

255
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,960
done some good things as well. But you know, when

256
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,120
when you look at Trent Battle's production and you look

257
00:12:56,120 --> 00:13:00,320
at Jeremy Payne's production, particularly on Saturday, you know, those guys,

258
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,360
you know, we want those guys to get into a

259
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,720
rhythm and give them an opportunity to get a field

260
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,200
for the game and get some carries. And as I said,

261
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,840
you know, I thought, I thought Jeremy was at almost

262
00:13:09,919 --> 00:13:11,759
nine yards of carry last week and did some really

263
00:13:11,759 --> 00:13:12,919
good things.

264
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,559
Speaker 7: What was the difference last week with the secondary?

265
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,320
Speaker 9: The guys have been given up to fifty one game

266
00:13:19,399 --> 00:13:21,960
that you guys played really impressive, I guess a pretty

267
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:22,840
impressive quarterback.

268
00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I think we just made some competitive plays.

269
00:13:26,799 --> 00:13:30,399
You know, I think our coverage was tight, you know,

270
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:34,000
but in particular, you know, the interception he got on

271
00:13:34,039 --> 00:13:35,919
the sideline, that was a fantastic play. It was a

272
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:40,399
really really good throw. You know, I think we you know,

273
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:42,559
you think about it. We had two fifteen plus play

274
00:13:42,639 --> 00:13:45,000
drives and so I think the offense kept their defense

275
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,120
off the field, you know, for a good bit of

276
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:47,879
the game.

277
00:13:47,919 --> 00:13:49,879
Speaker 5: They didn't have a ton of plays on offense.

278
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 4: We were at eighty and I think they were at

279
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,720
sixty five, so we didn't have to defend a lot

280
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,559
of plays. It was kind of a grinded out game

281
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,840
and you know, as I said to me, and we

282
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,519
had our opportunities to put the game away and we

283
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:05,879
just couldn't do it. And when you don't do that,

284
00:14:06,919 --> 00:14:10,399
you miss those opportunities, they come back and bite you.

285
00:14:11,159 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 7: Progress at.

286
00:14:17,639 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, we were good in the first half,

287
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:20,320
not as good in the second half.

288
00:14:20,399 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 5: You know.

289
00:14:20,919 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 4: The biggest thing, honestly is first down, you know what

290
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,799
I mean, because what what you know? We're really good

291
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,759
on third down or when when it's third and long,

292
00:14:32,879 --> 00:14:35,159
you know, and we've made a big improvements. We weren't

293
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,000
very good early in the year. We've gotten much better

294
00:14:38,039 --> 00:14:40,639
on third and long. A lot of the third downs

295
00:14:40,639 --> 00:14:43,519
that they converted on Saturday were short yardage third downs,

296
00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:45,600
and so we've got to do a good job early

297
00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:48,279
downs to try to get them into more third and

298
00:14:48,279 --> 00:14:51,399
long situations because I think, you know, as I said,

299
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,519
that was kind of something that we had issues with

300
00:14:53,559 --> 00:14:55,120
early in the year, was third and long and we

301
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:57,720
let too many people convert those and I think we've

302
00:14:57,759 --> 00:15:00,240
really improved in that area, and now we just kind

303
00:15:00,279 --> 00:15:03,799
of continue to put people in those long yarded situations.

304
00:15:05,639 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 7: Eric's leading the.

305
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,440
Speaker 9: Big twelve and receiving yards at the top of the

306
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,679
leading touchdowns.

307
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 7: How do you kind of compare him to some of

308
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:13,720
the guys that.

309
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:20,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean he's you know, he's very consistent.

310
00:15:20,799 --> 00:15:22,720
You know, I think that's what what the big thing

311
00:15:22,759 --> 00:15:25,720
about Eric is. You know, we've had some guys around

312
00:15:25,759 --> 00:15:28,279
here that have probably been, you know, big play guys

313
00:15:28,559 --> 00:15:31,559
that maybe lack some of the consistency that Eric Scott.

314
00:15:33,159 --> 00:15:34,960
You know, he's a really good catch and run guy.

315
00:15:35,039 --> 00:15:38,919
He's he's elusive. He can break tackles. You look at

316
00:15:38,919 --> 00:15:42,080
some of the quick game throws that we spit out

317
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,759
to him last week, and and you know a lot

318
00:15:44,759 --> 00:15:48,320
of times he'll make the first guy miss and and

319
00:15:48,399 --> 00:15:49,399
not everybody has had.

320
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 5: An ability to do that.

321
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,080
Speaker 4: So he's you know, you look at Quinton and you

322
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,039
look at Savion, and he's kind of almost in some

323
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,840
ways across between those two guys, probably a little more

324
00:15:56,879 --> 00:16:00,240
physical than than Quinton, probably not quite as physical, cool

325
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:06,039
oft save on, but has a little bit different skill set,

326
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,399
you know, understands the game. You know, he knows how

327
00:16:09,399 --> 00:16:12,559
to set guys up. He has a good sense of

328
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,159
spacing and timing and tracks the ball well, it's got

329
00:16:16,159 --> 00:16:17,360
a good catch radius.

330
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 5: You know.

331
00:16:18,279 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 4: He's just a good football player, you know. And the

332
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,000
big thing is as a quarterback, trust him. You know,

333
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,919
Josh and here on the same page. And and usually

334
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,000
when those guys have that kind of that trust in

335
00:16:28,039 --> 00:16:29,039
each other, then you know, you.

336
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 5: See some good things happen.

337
00:16:34,519 --> 00:16:34,679
Speaker 3: Yeah.

338
00:16:34,759 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you'll see more Jordan this week. Yeah, yep.

339
00:16:38,759 --> 00:16:40,559
Just again trying to get him back healthy. You know,

340
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,879
it's been a little bit of a process.

341
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:47,519
Speaker 2: Yeah.

342
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,759
Speaker 4: I mean, look, I think everybody's upset and dissatisfied that

343
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:53,440
we we lost the game that we felt like we

344
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:57,080
should have won on Saturday. You know, again, you look

345
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,279
around college football, it's it's pretty interesting right now, the

346
00:17:00,279 --> 00:17:02,039
things that are happening. I mean, you look at there

347
00:17:02,039 --> 00:17:03,840
were some i think three teams ranked in the top

348
00:17:03,879 --> 00:17:06,359
twenty five this week there were six and two they

349
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,160
lost to teams that you look at it before the

350
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:10,720
game and you go, man, they probably shouldn't lose to

351
00:17:10,759 --> 00:17:12,599
these guys. There's just a lot of parody. It's a

352
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,440
lot different than it used to be. You know, there

353
00:17:15,519 --> 00:17:17,960
was times, I know when I was at Texas Tech

354
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,559
in the Big twelve. You know, we would play six

355
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:25,279
teams a year, maybe seven teams a year that had

356
00:17:25,319 --> 00:17:28,960
no chance to beat us. And that's just not the

357
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,279
way it is in college football now. Anybody can beat

358
00:17:31,279 --> 00:17:33,839
anybody on any Saturday. I mean, you look at the

359
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,240
number two team in the country when the season started

360
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,400
was Penn State, and I think they've lost six straight

361
00:17:39,759 --> 00:17:45,400
and so, I mean, that's that never happened. You know,

362
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:49,160
those kind of things were impossible in the old world

363
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:50,160
of college football.

364
00:17:50,559 --> 00:17:53,759
Speaker 5: It's just a different game now. And you know you

365
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:54,440
have to.

366
00:17:56,039 --> 00:17:57,880
Speaker 4: You're going to see very few teams go through the

367
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,720
season undefeated. You're going to see very few one loss teams,

368
00:18:02,599 --> 00:18:06,240
You're going to see very few two loss teams. It's

369
00:18:06,279 --> 00:18:08,440
just difficult to win, and there's more parody than there

370
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,559
ever has been. And so it's a challenge every week.

371
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 5: You have to play well.

372
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 4: You can't make mistakes, you got to limit you know it, again,

373
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,680
all these games come down to the same thing. It

374
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,519
comes down to turnovers and then somebody making a play

375
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,039
in a critical situation, and that is going to determine

376
00:18:26,079 --> 00:18:28,279
probably half of your games. And you go back and

377
00:18:28,279 --> 00:18:31,279
look at some of the wins that we've had this season.

378
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,359
You know, we made some plays in some critical spots,

379
00:18:34,039 --> 00:18:35,799
and you look at the games that we've lost, it's

380
00:18:35,839 --> 00:18:40,079
been turnovers. It's been turnovers and our inability to close

381
00:18:40,079 --> 00:18:42,680
a game out, you know, and I think that's been

382
00:18:42,759 --> 00:18:43,880
a little bit frustrating.

383
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 5: But it's a competitive thing.

384
00:18:45,279 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 4: I mean, it's a very The college football world is

385
00:18:48,519 --> 00:18:51,960
vastly different than it was for a long time. I mean,

386
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,279
it's just unfortunately the way it is, and there's tons

387
00:18:54,319 --> 00:18:57,079
of parody and men, there's a lot of pressure on

388
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:58,960
these players to play at a high level because you

389
00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,279
can't go turn the oliver four or five times and

390
00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,960
just be a lot better than somebody and win. And

391
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,160
that used to happen all the time. You know, you

392
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,000
would take the field and you would say, well, there's

393
00:19:09,519 --> 00:19:12,680
pretty much no way these guys can beat us, and

394
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:13,720
that's not the case.

395
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 10: You are listening to TCU's head coach Sonny Dykes in

396
00:19:19,759 --> 00:19:24,759
his pre game press conference previewing tonight's matchup against BYU,

397
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:25,799
where the.

398
00:19:25,839 --> 00:19:27,759
Speaker 7: Rule would go back to stop in the block after

399
00:19:27,799 --> 00:19:28,319
the first down.

400
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, look, the interesting thing about football is,

401
00:19:35,039 --> 00:19:39,200
you know, the game has played a certain way for

402
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:43,160
a really long time, and then and then it changed,

403
00:19:43,519 --> 00:19:45,839
you know, and then the you know, the kind of

404
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,440
evolution of the throwing game and the air raid offense

405
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,000
and all this stuff, and then it became going fast

406
00:19:51,079 --> 00:19:54,559
and the tempo, and all of a sudden that the

407
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,359
number of plays went up in games and you were

408
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,799
having teams that were running you know, over one hundred

409
00:19:59,799 --> 00:20:01,799
play was not that unusual.

410
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 5: And then I think some of.

411
00:20:06,319 --> 00:20:09,640
Speaker 4: The power brokers in college football didn't really like that,

412
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:11,759
you know what I mean. I think there was some

413
00:20:11,839 --> 00:20:15,640
traditional traditionalists that didn't really like the way the game

414
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:21,720
was being played, didn't think it maybe favored them, and

415
00:20:22,079 --> 00:20:25,279
had enough power to affect some changes within the game

416
00:20:25,519 --> 00:20:29,680
when it came to rules and you know, and then

417
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:34,839
you had the evolution of the world class signal stealers

418
00:20:35,279 --> 00:20:38,920
that you know, and basically people hiring entire coaching staffs

419
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,000
to steal other people's signals. You know, that's been going

420
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,000
on for a long time and something probably a lot

421
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,640
of people don't talk about. But once those things started

422
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:49,680
to happen, then.

423
00:20:51,079 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 5: You know, they changed the.

424
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:57,079
Speaker 4: Rules from a timing standpoint, and then gave the gave

425
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:02,599
you know, communication with the core and a defensive player.

426
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:06,200
And when that happened, then people started to huddle more

427
00:21:06,279 --> 00:21:08,400
and so it slowed the game down. People aren't playing

428
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,920
as fast as they used to. So this is a

429
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,279
long answer, but that it's a different game now than

430
00:21:15,279 --> 00:21:18,200
it used to be, you know, And that's led to

431
00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,160
some of the parody if you think about it, because

432
00:21:21,279 --> 00:21:24,839
if you're you know, you might play fifty snaps of offense.

433
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:26,160
Speaker 5: Now that's not that uncommon.

434
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 4: Well before you might play one hundred, and so if

435
00:21:29,519 --> 00:21:31,200
you played one hundred snaps, I mean, it's just like

436
00:21:31,279 --> 00:21:33,839
going to Las Vegas. The more hands of the more

437
00:21:33,839 --> 00:21:37,960
hands of blackjack you play, the better odds the house has, okay,

438
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,680
because the odds are in their favor. Well, it's the

439
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,759
same thing in college football. If you can limit somebody's plays,

440
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:45,880
you can turn them over once or twice, they can

441
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,680
miss a short field goal, you get to play on

442
00:21:48,759 --> 00:21:51,200
special teams. All of a sudden, you can win a

443
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:55,599
game because that team's not getting fifteen sixteen possessions like

444
00:21:55,640 --> 00:22:00,720
they used to. Now, every possession, every play is more critical.

445
00:22:00,759 --> 00:22:03,759
There's more of an onus on everything leading up to

446
00:22:03,799 --> 00:22:05,960
that now than there was in the past, and so

447
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:11,920
that has, in my opinion, also contributed to all the

448
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,000
close games in college football, all the upsets in college football.

449
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,920
You know, very few teams dominating like they used to.

450
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,839
You know, I used to make the analogy all the

451
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,039
time about the SEC. I used to say, you know,

452
00:22:24,079 --> 00:22:28,200
you never saw Vanderbilt beat Alabama. That didn't used to happen. Well,

453
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:31,960
I guess what happened, and it happened because the game

454
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:37,119
has changed, and so it's different. It's like I said,

455
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,920
it puts an onus on It's more like the NFL

456
00:22:40,039 --> 00:22:42,960
with the limited number of possessions. And really, honestly, what

457
00:22:43,039 --> 00:22:46,400
it comes down to on most Saturdays is which team

458
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:52,039
screws up the least. And that's really different than it

459
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,559
used to be. It used to be which team was

460
00:22:54,559 --> 00:22:57,799
more explosive and which team could take advantage of these

461
00:22:57,839 --> 00:23:00,640
matchups and which team You know, now it's come down

462
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,680
to it so that the same way in the NFL.

463
00:23:02,839 --> 00:23:05,039
You know, there's just so few possessions and so few

464
00:23:05,079 --> 00:23:08,519
plays that there's so much parody in that league, and

465
00:23:08,519 --> 00:23:09,440
that contributes to it.

466
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 5: Okay, thank you.

467
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:20,079
Speaker 9: Just thoughts going up to BYU face a number twelve

468
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:20,720
team animation.

469
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 8: I feel like it's a good opportunity for the team,

470
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,160
you know, all.

471
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,519
Speaker 3: Right, there you go that Sunny Dyke's head coach TCU

472
00:23:28,599 --> 00:23:34,880
horned frogs talking BYU in their preparation for this massive

473
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,240
game for the bau Cougar football team. And it's a

474
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,720
big game for TCU as well. Yeah, they're out of

475
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,759
the hunt for the big twelve championship game they are,

476
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:48,440
but getting to double digit victories in the modern era

477
00:23:48,559 --> 00:23:51,279
for TCU, it's become a bit of a common theme

478
00:23:51,319 --> 00:23:54,559
for them. I believe out of the twenty five seasons

479
00:23:54,640 --> 00:24:00,200
since twenty twenty, TCU has been able to eclipse ten

480
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:03,359
wins or meet ten wins, or eclipse ten wins in

481
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,920
twenty of those seasons. That is significant. That is a

482
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,759
bar that is hard to meet. That is a standard

483
00:24:09,799 --> 00:24:12,359
that is hard to meet in college football, and TCU's

484
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,240
done it. So that was Sunny Dyke's getting his team prep,

485
00:24:15,279 --> 00:24:18,160
getting it ready, getting them ready for this BYU matchup.

486
00:24:18,319 --> 00:24:21,359
And whenever you're a top twelve team like this, there's

487
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,160
additional motivation realized, there's a target on VOA's back at

488
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:28,720
every single game going forward, because as a head coach

489
00:24:28,759 --> 00:24:33,640
in college football, as a college football team that is

490
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,559
not going to the College Football Playoff, what's the silver

491
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,759
lining at the end of the season, right, what's.

492
00:24:39,519 --> 00:24:41,319
Speaker 2: The silver lining each and every single week?

493
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,400
Speaker 3: If you can knock off a top twenty five team

494
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:47,279
and push them out of their college football playoff bid,

495
00:24:48,079 --> 00:24:51,359
you create chaos and there's a ton of validation in

496
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:54,640
regards to that in my opinion. So guys, we're gonna

497
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,319
take a brief time out. We're gonna come back. There's actually, look,

498
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:01,319
if BYU doesn't get to the CF RON and I

499
00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,519
have been discussing this. You know, we'd love to go

500
00:25:04,519 --> 00:25:06,440
to the Alamo Ball again if that's where they go.

501
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 2: But look, there's a part of me that's like, no, I.

502
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 3: Would be perfectly fine going to the Pop Tarks Ball,

00:25:24,079 --> 00:25:25,519
it's been a successful season.

507
00:25:25,599 --> 00:25:28,079
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's nice to get to a warm weather destination and.

508
00:25:28,519 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 3: Uh, you know, maybe hold my Harry Potter wand and

509
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,559
throw it around a little bit at Harry Potter World.

510
00:25:33,559 --> 00:25:37,599

00:26:30,839 --> 00:26:33,640
U TCU matchup. It's a big game and Uh, we're

529
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,559
also watching the BAU basketball game. The second half is

530
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,559
just tipped off. B YU down eleven, thirty two to

531
00:26:39,599 --> 00:26:42,400
forty three through the to the Yukon Huskies. B Way,

532
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,279
you finally hit a three point shot at the end

533
00:26:45,319 --> 00:26:46,160
of the first half.

534
00:26:47,079 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 2: What's the uh, the the attempts is it?

535
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:52,759
Speaker 8: So tell them russ at the second one to cut

536
00:26:52,759 --> 00:26:53,319
it to eleven.

537
00:26:54,839 --> 00:26:56,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, we're playing your best three points.

538
00:26:57,279 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 2: For the love of all that's holy man, I think

539
00:26:58,960 --> 00:26:59,680
they are out there.

540
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 3: Goodness gracious, this may be one of the worst three

541
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:04,440
point shooting teams in BAU basketball history.

542
00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 2: I hope it's not, but it may be.

543
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,319
Speaker 3: I do want to talk some football in this segment

544
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,319
despite the BOU basketball game going on to the background. Guys,

545
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,720
once the basketball game, what you should do is, you know,

546
00:27:17,759 --> 00:27:20,480
with about ten minutes remaining in the basketball game, come

547
00:27:20,519 --> 00:27:22,599
on over and watch the end of the Boa basketball

548
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,960
game with us here with the esp and the fan

549
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,960
and get a hot dog, get a hot chocolate, get

550
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:32,759
a swig, and come celebrate. Hopefully the victory a nice

551
00:27:32,759 --> 00:27:36,279
comeback victory for the Cougars. But as I mentioned, we're

552
00:27:36,279 --> 00:27:38,519
getting your prep getting ready for this BAU TCU matchup

553
00:27:38,559 --> 00:27:42,119
TCU six and three overall and Bau's eight and one,

554
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,200
Bou's slightly favored three and a half point favorite, and

555
00:27:45,559 --> 00:27:48,000
the over under set at fifty one and a half. Now,

556
00:27:48,319 --> 00:27:51,799
look BYU needs to win the next three in order

557
00:27:51,799 --> 00:27:54,599
to get to the Big toelve Championship game. If they don't,

558
00:27:56,039 --> 00:28:00,000
and they become a potentially you know, let's just say

559
00:28:00,079 --> 00:28:03,119
a two lost team, and you're gonna have these these

560
00:28:03,279 --> 00:28:06,160
ties between two lost teams in the Big twelve, you

561
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:07,839
may not get to the Big Toeal Championship, which means

562
00:28:07,839 --> 00:28:09,559
you could be in the Alimble Bowl or the Pop

563
00:28:09,599 --> 00:28:12,599
Tards Bowl, Okay, and either one would be fantastic experienced.

564
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,359
The Alimble Bowl last year was a good payout and the

565
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,240
pop Tars Bowl ain't too bad either.

566
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:17,680
Speaker 2: Guys.

567
00:28:17,839 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 3: Uh, b YU and Iowa State had a had a

568
00:28:20,839 --> 00:28:24,039
had a tie last year. Iowa State ended up going

569
00:28:24,079 --> 00:28:26,119
to the Pop Tards Bowl last year because the Alimble

570
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:30,960
Bowl wanted b YU and Colorado they got first DIBs uh,

571
00:28:31,039 --> 00:28:33,920
and so Pop Tards will get the second dims on this.

572
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:37,279
So it'll just kind of depend on the former Pac

573
00:28:37,319 --> 00:28:39,720
twelve teams that are available in Bowl eligible in the

574
00:28:39,799 --> 00:28:43,759
highest rated ones and uh where BYU's at in the

575
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,599
in the mix as well. So to talk about the

576
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:50,359
Pop Tars Bowl, though, we've seen from time to time

577
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,279
the scouts come in for these bowl games and pot

578
00:28:53,359 --> 00:28:55,440
Tards Ball scouts are in attendance.

579
00:28:55,880 --> 00:29:00,839
Speaker 2: He I picked him off. He was getting a swig.

580
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:05,680
He got himself a whistletoe medal. Ye, yeah, he did.

581
00:29:05,799 --> 00:29:07,759
Speaker 3: Let's welcome in a scout for the Pop Tarts Bowl.

582
00:29:07,759 --> 00:29:09,920
We got Jimmy Betzel here. Jimmy, how that are you, man?

583
00:29:10,039 --> 00:29:12,400
Speaker 2: I'm I'm good. I thank you for having me on.

584
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:16,119
Speaker 11: You know, it's a great, great day, beautiful football weather

585
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:17,799
for mid November here.

586
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,559
Speaker 2: I mean, so yeah, I'm excited.

587
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 6: Jimmy.

588
00:29:20,039 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 3: This is your first time in Provo. How is your

589
00:29:22,039 --> 00:29:24,000
experience being thus far? And I know you're looking forward

590
00:29:24,039 --> 00:29:24,440
to the game.

591
00:29:24,519 --> 00:29:27,519
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, it's been good. I got here about an

592
00:29:27,559 --> 00:29:30,400
hour ago. I just started walking around some of the

593
00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,319
parking lots and everything, and I mean, yeah, no, it's

594
00:29:33,359 --> 00:29:36,680
a it's a definitely a very cool college town.

595
00:29:36,559 --> 00:29:37,599
Speaker 2: For sure, very cool.

596
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,559
Speaker 3: So tell me what scouts do for these bowl games.

597
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,880
You're coming in, You're gonna take in the game. Yes, Now,

598
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,039
both of these teams very well could be candidates for

599
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,960
a pop Tarts Bowl Berth, But are you looking at

600
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,799
one particular team, Uh, you know, we are just looking

601
00:29:51,839 --> 00:29:54,279
for two teams that will create a compelling matchup for

602
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,279
Orlando in a national TV audience.

603
00:29:56,319 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 2: So we have a whole.

604
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:02,559
Speaker 11: Program where basically we cans and send scouts to any

605
00:30:02,599 --> 00:30:05,559
power for matchup. Because we have the pop Tarts Bowl,

606
00:30:05,559 --> 00:30:08,680
which is the ACC Big twelve. That was Iowa State

607
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:11,920
Miami last year. Great game that was I was there.

608
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,480
That was a nuts game to take it in Orlando.

609
00:30:14,839 --> 00:30:17,839
And then you have the Cheese at Citrus Bowl which

610
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,640
is the SEC in Big ten so and that was

611
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,920
South Carolina Illinois. So yeah, so we just have we

612
00:30:25,039 --> 00:30:27,839
kind of send scouts around to all these Power four

613
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:29,519
games just to take in the environment.

614
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:33,880
Speaker 2: And yeah, well I love the fact that you're here.

615
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 3: Obviously b YU fans they want to make it to

616
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,920
the CFP, that's what they want.

617
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 2: But a nice landing spot if you.

618
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 3: Don't go to the CFP is to head out to Orlando,

619
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,640
and that would like if what who are the teams

620
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:51,079
right now that are trending maybe in the ACC that

621
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,759
could also be candidates for this Bowl game, which you say.

622
00:30:55,079 --> 00:30:57,519
Speaker 2: Uh, you know, Oh, I don't know.

623
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 11: Like you said, we just keep we just a good

624
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,880
scouting profile on all these teams and then you know,

625
00:31:04,519 --> 00:31:05,119
we'll make.

626
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 3: A decision when we make a decision. What goes into

627
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,640
that though, Like obviously the Rakings where they're at the

628
00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,480
bowl games, get their bids right and they got they

629
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:12,720
have to.

630
00:31:13,079 --> 00:31:14,599
Speaker 2: They get first dips, second dims.

631
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 3: You guys get the second didips for the Big Twelve

632
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:19,000
and then you guys get also for the ACC. Is

633
00:31:19,039 --> 00:31:23,200
that kind of the first first position for the ACC

634
00:31:23,559 --> 00:31:24,680
that doesn't go to the CFP.

635
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 2: I don't know off the top of my head, okay,

636
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:30,799
but it's a higher up there.

637
00:31:30,839 --> 00:31:32,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it is. I think it may be

638
00:31:32,319 --> 00:31:35,319
first position for the ACC. So you get, you know,

639
00:31:36,359 --> 00:31:41,400
the second best Big twelve team versus the next best

640
00:31:41,519 --> 00:31:45,839
a CC team that's not in the CFP. You look

641
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:50,039
at the profile these teams, what's the attraction to come

642
00:31:50,079 --> 00:31:52,640
to I guess Orlando right now? Why would the pop

643
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,480
Tarts Bowl be a great bowl game for b y

644
00:31:55,559 --> 00:31:56,680
U if they don't get to the CFP.

645
00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,279
Speaker 2: Well, the pop Tarts Bowl is just a great bowl.

646
00:31:59,319 --> 00:32:01,559
Speaker 11: You know, pop Tarts has treated us really well as

647
00:32:01,559 --> 00:32:03,920
a spot oncert since they came on the game in

648
00:32:04,079 --> 00:32:04,920
a couple of years ago.

649
00:32:05,039 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 2: I mean, there's they're very good about.

650
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:10,039
Speaker 11: Fan activations and whatnot, especially when you get there. I

651
00:32:10,039 --> 00:32:12,480
tell people, there's so many like cool little things they

652
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,119
do at the stadium in Orlando that you're not gonna see,

653
00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,519
like when it's a TV timeout when you're watching the

654
00:32:17,559 --> 00:32:19,880
game here. And so it's a great I mean, the

655
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,759
Florida weather is beautiful, obviously, and you know Li said

656
00:32:23,799 --> 00:32:26,519
it's great with the activations and how you know, Pop

657
00:32:26,559 --> 00:32:31,359
Tarts treats us for the Bowl game, and yeah, it's fantastic,

658
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,160
and yeah.

659
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,319
Speaker 2: Love that. Jimmy, Jimmy, give me a score prediction.

660
00:32:35,359 --> 00:32:37,039
Speaker 3: Give me how do you think this game plays out

661
00:32:37,039 --> 00:32:40,319
tonight under the lights of Laville BYU versus TCU.

662
00:32:40,559 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 11: I think it's gonna be a good game. I think

663
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,640
it's gonna be a good game. So I look, yeah,

664
00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:48,319
two very good football teams.

665
00:32:48,359 --> 00:32:51,599
Speaker 2: So well, Jimmy, we appreciate you. How's that drink from Swig?

666
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 11: It's pretty nice. It's it's pretty nice. I've never been

667
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:56,319
to Swig before, so.

668
00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 3: Well, hey, we what we do best here in Provo

669
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:01,920
is cold sugar eat drinks. So that's how we roll.

670
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,680
That's our vice. I'm caffeinated at that.

671
00:33:05,079 --> 00:33:08,279
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, I got you. Jimmy.

672
00:33:08,319 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 3: We appreciate you, man, Thanks for joining us, thanks for

673
00:33:10,759 --> 00:33:12,920
letting us get to know you, and thanks for being

674
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:15,160
here to scout the BA Cougar football team as well

675
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:15,799
as TCUs.

676
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. So yeah, hopefully it's a good fun game.

677
00:33:18,559 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 11: And yeah, I'm excited to take in Lavelle Edwards for

678
00:33:21,039 --> 00:33:22,000
my first time personally.

679
00:33:22,079 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 3: So awesome, man, Well, we appreciate you. That's Jimmy Benchel

680
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,279
scout for the Pop Tards Bowl. Guys, I just had

681
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,119
my guy Vic Kraham pull the numbers. Right now, Boa

682
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,200
Basketball's taking on Yukon. They are down fifty two to

683
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,160
thirty six with sixteen minutes remaining.

684
00:33:37,759 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 2: I asked the question, is.

685
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,319
Speaker 3: This going to be BYU's one of BWA's worst three

686
00:33:42,319 --> 00:33:45,880
point shooting teams in the modern era going back to

687
00:33:46,079 --> 00:33:50,160
nineteen ninety seven. So the ninety seven ninety eight team

688
00:33:50,319 --> 00:33:53,400
shot thirty point four percent from the three point line.

689
00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,519
They were a fourteen and sixteen team. Now Boa is

690
00:33:56,519 --> 00:33:59,319
gonna win more games than that. Ninety three ninety four

691
00:33:59,319 --> 00:34:01,599
they were thirty one point eight percent from the three

692
00:34:01,599 --> 00:34:04,119
point line. That was a team that was fifteen and

693
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,599
fourteen in twenty eighteen. Twenty nineteen, they shot thirty three percent,

694
00:34:09,159 --> 00:34:13,360
uh and they went nineteen and thirteen. Are we going

695
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,239
to right the ship with our three point shooting? Ronald

696
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,159
of the three man Weaver? Is this a product of

697
00:34:18,199 --> 00:34:21,079
the strength of schedule thus far? Or is this just

698
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,360
not a good three point shooting team.

699
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,800
Speaker 8: I mean, it's a long season. People were counting them out.

700
00:34:26,079 --> 00:34:28,960
After the Providence game. I was getting questions like I

701
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:30,880
don't think this team is gonna make the tournament. I said,

702
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,840
their five games into the season, what are you talking about?

703
00:34:34,119 --> 00:34:35,599
Speaker 6: So they have a chance to rewrite it.

704
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 8: But what I'm worried about is I'm watching this game.

705
00:34:39,079 --> 00:34:42,639
Is the perimeter defense you if you're gonna trap and

706
00:34:42,679 --> 00:34:44,920
then have lazy effort like I'm sorry, I'm gonna swear

707
00:34:45,119 --> 00:34:46,920
to do as I say kids, not as I do,

708
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,119
but lazy ass effort Like I'm watching Richie Saunders not

709
00:34:50,199 --> 00:34:52,800
get up to the three point line. I'm watching Rob

710
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,880
Wright and I go to the coint like that's occurring.

711
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:59,079
Like that's not talent or personal, that's effort. If you're

712
00:34:59,079 --> 00:35:01,880
not gonna have f then that's gonna kill you in

713
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,440
games like you have to do better. So I don't

714
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,199
think the three point shooting is gonna be a problem,

715
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:10,960
But the defensive perimeter right now is starting to showcase

716
00:35:11,159 --> 00:35:13,679
what it was last year, and that's a big issue

717
00:35:13,679 --> 00:35:14,239
why they're down.

718
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:15,199
Speaker 6: It's not the only reason.

719
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:17,800
Speaker 8: You got to play better perimeter defense, ben So I

720
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,519
am more concerned about them guarding the three with effort

721
00:35:20,639 --> 00:35:21,639
than putting up threes.

722
00:35:22,119 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 6: Yeah.

723
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 3: Look, right now on the season, they are shooting thirty

724
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,599
two point four percent from the three point line, seventy

725
00:35:28,639 --> 00:35:31,559
six point nine percent from the charity stripe, forty eight

726
00:35:31,559 --> 00:35:35,840
point seven percent from the field. In general, they've been

727
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,920
good offensive. They put up a lot of points. Obviously

728
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,400
with the Big three Richie Saunders, rob Right the third

729
00:35:40,639 --> 00:35:43,760
and aj De Bonsa. How are those three performing tonight

730
00:35:44,199 --> 00:35:49,760
under the biggest lights of I guess the initial the

731
00:35:50,159 --> 00:35:54,239
inception of this BYU college basketball.

732
00:35:53,679 --> 00:35:55,079
Speaker 2: Season, how are the big three playing?

733
00:35:55,199 --> 00:35:55,440
Speaker 6: Look?

734
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,280
Speaker 8: I mean the scouts out on edge of the bonds

735
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,960
is to be extremely physical to see multiple bodies at

736
00:36:00,079 --> 00:36:02,039
him when he drives down, rot it over, and they've

737
00:36:02,079 --> 00:36:04,519
done a great job of collapsing. Maybe at times AJ

738
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:06,920
has forced a little bit, but look, when you're on

739
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:08,559
a statue, you have to do that. Rob Wright actually

740
00:36:08,559 --> 00:36:10,679
hasn't played bad. He's got nine points some four to

741
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,719
seven shooting. I don't even think Richie has played necessarily bad.

742
00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:15,760
Been like he picked up two quick fouls, but he's

743
00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:17,679
also got nine to three or six. I really think

744
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,320
the guy that has really stepped up big tonight in

745
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,000
the assen of Moo Davis.

746
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 6: And we know why.

747
00:36:22,599 --> 00:36:25,199
Speaker 8: Pert Kevin Young on the pregame with Jason Shepherd saidue

748
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:26,760
violating the team a rule.

749
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:27,639
Speaker 6: That's why moves out.

750
00:36:27,639 --> 00:36:29,920
Speaker 8: He's there on the bench, made the trip like you said,

751
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:31,639
But it's not playing Dawson Baker.

752
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,119
Speaker 6: Dawson Baker's playing phenomenal.

753
00:36:33,159 --> 00:36:35,519
Speaker 8: I think tonight nine points, two of three from the field,

754
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,280
both of those that come from the three, and he's

755
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,480
made all three of his free throws. So look, Dawson's

756
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:41,760
got nine points in fifteen minutes.

757
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 3: See high low Boskovic got the start, he did the

758
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:45,639
placement of Moo Davis.

759
00:36:45,679 --> 00:36:47,360
Speaker 8: He got the start at that was more of a

760
00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,960
matchup thing, right, Yukon's long because a lot of people

761
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,519
like Ron why is Dawson not starting well? Dawson is

762
00:36:53,559 --> 00:36:56,079
not he doesn't not the right matchup to start with

763
00:36:56,159 --> 00:36:58,079
that group. But coming off the second group, and look,

764
00:36:58,119 --> 00:37:00,679
I'm gonna be honest, Milo ben two points one or

765
00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:02,960
seven er oover five like he missed his third. They

766
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,400
got the offensive rebound, then he air balled his for it,

767
00:37:05,559 --> 00:37:07,599
and look he was He's a minus twelve in the

768
00:37:07,599 --> 00:37:10,159
court sixteen minutes. I look, he kind of got benched

769
00:37:10,199 --> 00:37:12,800
in a way. Like you just Mihilo's gotta play better.

770
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:14,840
They brought you here for a reason. You have not

771
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,519
been playing well. You have di did play well in

772
00:37:16,519 --> 00:37:18,960
this Yukon game. Still sixteen minutes left to go, But

773
00:37:19,199 --> 00:37:21,159
you gotta correct that like that, you have to play better.

774
00:37:21,199 --> 00:37:23,480
But I said it multiple times. I said Dawson did

775
00:37:23,519 --> 00:37:25,400
not practice because he was hurt. Now what is he

776
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:27,119
starting to do. He's starting to heat up. So I

777
00:37:27,159 --> 00:37:30,079
love Dawson the bucket getter. Hopefully he's able to keep

778
00:37:30,079 --> 00:37:32,239
a scoring because Bill he needs everything they can get.

779
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:33,519
Speaker 6: Been there down about sixteen us.

780
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:34,840
Speaker 2: We call him a high low.

781
00:37:34,679 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 3: Bucket bitch, highlight bucket itch, but me highlight BUCKETVICH.

782
00:37:38,079 --> 00:37:40,840
Speaker 2: But Andrew Peterson producing our show today.

783
00:37:41,519 --> 00:37:44,559
Speaker 3: Do you feel like he's looking like my Hilo bucket, bitch,

784
00:37:44,639 --> 00:37:45,599
my highlight bucket, nch.

785
00:37:45,639 --> 00:37:46,599
Speaker 2: What does he look like tonight?

786
00:37:48,199 --> 00:37:50,840
Speaker 10: To be honest, this is not a representation of him

787
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,880
as an overall player, but tonight he's playing like Mahilo

788
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:55,119
bucket myths.

789
00:37:55,639 --> 00:37:58,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh my goodness, yeah, yea, yep, yep, yeah yeah.

790
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:01,480
Fifty five to thirty nine right now, the Kougs flailing

791
00:38:01,519 --> 00:38:04,960
a little bit, the cook's trying to find answers a defensively,

792
00:38:05,079 --> 00:38:07,679
I don't know if I'm more concerned, quite honestly, if

793
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,480
I'm more concerned about the defense or the offense.

794
00:38:10,519 --> 00:38:12,119
Speaker 6: The defense is what I'm more concerned about.

795
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:12,599
Speaker 2: Oop.

796
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,719
Speaker 10: I want to be clear, that's not my overall opinion.

797
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:17,760
It's just he's having a rough night tonight.

798
00:38:18,199 --> 00:38:20,280
Speaker 6: He's having a very rough night. Ben All five is

799
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:20,840
a rough night.

800
00:38:21,119 --> 00:38:23,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very rough, no doubt about it.

801
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:27,719
Speaker 3: Very rough night indeed for this Cougar basketball team taking

802
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:31,880
on the Yukon Huskies. Let's get a little report coming

803
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,440
out of the Top twenty five college football scoreboard to

804
00:38:34,559 --> 00:38:38,360
Utah's up twenty eight to ten versus the Baylor Bears.

805
00:38:39,320 --> 00:38:40,920
Speaker 2: Utah's thirteenth in the country.

806
00:38:41,599 --> 00:38:45,119
Speaker 3: Indiana ended up knocking off Wisconsin in convincing fashion thirty

807
00:38:45,159 --> 00:38:48,039
one to seven. Or leaders today, Virginia knocked off the

808
00:38:48,159 --> 00:38:52,840
Duke the Duke football team thirty four seventeen. Right now, Ole,

809
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,159
Miss and Florida are duking it out. It's a close

810
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,079
one right before half, about forty five seconds before half.

811
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,639
Florida's actually up twenty one to twenty. That could be

812
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,679
a boon for byuf O. Miss balls to a three

813
00:39:03,679 --> 00:39:06,320
and six Florida team in this one.

814
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:09,679
Speaker 8: You need that one ben because a reminder, Alabama did

815
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:12,719
not defeat Oklahoma, so both of those teams are going

816
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:13,800
to be in the top ten next week.

817
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, Ucla losing to Ohio State by seventeen seventeen to zero.

818
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:22,480
Georgia is looking to take down the Texas Longhorns fourteen

819
00:39:22,519 --> 00:39:26,320
to three. Right now, there's eleven nineteen left in the second.

820
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,400
In the second, Texas A and m ended up finding

821
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:32,079
a way to win after being down twenty seven points

822
00:39:32,079 --> 00:39:35,360
at the half. They beat South Carolina three and seven.

823
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,000
The South Carolina team thirty one to thirty, found a

824
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:41,280
way to win. Oklahoma number eleven taking on Alabama at

825
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:44,400
number four They beat them by two as a close

826
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:47,000
one by the skin of their teeth. So that's twenty

827
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,800
three to twenty one. Texas Tech dominated UCF, the number

828
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,599
six best team in the country. I think they're a

829
00:39:53,639 --> 00:39:56,719
top five team now forty eight to nine. Notre Dame

830
00:39:56,800 --> 00:40:00,000
beat Pitt thirty seven to fifteen. Miami took on Ins

831
00:40:00,159 --> 00:40:02,880
State beat them up pretty badly forty one to seven.

832
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:07,239
Georgia Tech barely got the win versus Boston College thirty

833
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:10,880
six thirty four. Usc took down Iowa twenty six to

834
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,920
twenty one, Michigan twenty four to twenty two, over Northwestern

835
00:40:15,039 --> 00:40:18,519
Tennessee beat New Mexico State forty two to nine, and

836
00:40:18,559 --> 00:40:22,679
then Navy took down South Florida forty one to thirty eight.

837
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:25,000
And guess what, Cincinnati lost to the U of A

838
00:40:25,159 --> 00:40:28,039

874
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:12,119
BYU men's basketball game, as well as many of the

875
00:42:12,159 --> 00:42:15,400
other college football games. Bay is down seventeen right now

876
00:42:15,440 --> 00:42:17,199
in the second half, trying to find a way to

877
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,360
get back into this game versus the Yukon Huskies. We

878
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:23,920
wish them well, let's make it respectable, please, for the

879
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,920
love of all that's holy, as we tried to find

880
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:30,960
ourselves early in this season. Look, I'm there's no doubt

881
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,440
in my mind that BYU will trend in the right

882
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:36,639
direction at the end of the season in February. You

883
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,280
gotta trend in the right direction. You gotta get to

884
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,119
that point where you're playing your best ball in February.

885
00:42:42,159 --> 00:42:44,119
And I believe that k Y will do what he

886
00:42:44,199 --> 00:42:46,320
did last year with this BOA men's basketball team.

887
00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:47,960
Speaker 2: It will be a better three point shooting team. They'll

888
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,360
be a better defensive team come.

889
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:54,239
Speaker 3: January and February, so early on, it is what it is.

890
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:55,559
Speaker 2: You just gotta keep it close.

891
00:42:55,599 --> 00:42:58,280
Speaker 3: You gotta keep it competitive, you gotta keep it respectable,

892
00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,280
in my opinion, and not get a.

893
00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:02,480
Speaker 2: Twenty point blowout loss.

894
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,840
Speaker 3: On a neutral court, albeit it's probably more of a

895
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,920
home court advantage for the Yukon Huskies at any rate,

896
00:43:09,079 --> 00:43:13,159
I do want to delve into BYU football matchup versus TCU.

897
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,280
One of the things that I'm hoping for tonight. If

898
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:18,039
I had my way, ideally you want to get And

899
00:43:18,079 --> 00:43:20,559
I was just talking to my guys. The Holkinson's the

900
00:43:20,639 --> 00:43:24,559
biggest BYU fames known to men here in Cougar Country.

901
00:43:25,760 --> 00:43:27,840
The thing that you want in this game is a

902
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:32,239
three score victory. If I had my ideals right, you

903
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:35,880
win by seventeen points, a convincing.

904
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:36,480
Speaker 2: Victory at home.

905
00:43:36,599 --> 00:43:40,440
Speaker 3: After a bit of a pr issue in love it now,

906
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:44,480
I know we have silver linings and moral victories on

907
00:43:44,519 --> 00:43:47,079
the road versus Texas Tech. I've been able to look

908
00:43:47,119 --> 00:43:51,159
at those and evaluate those, and I think when if

909
00:43:51,559 --> 00:43:55,119
a certain sequence of events occurs, I think the College

910
00:43:55,119 --> 00:43:57,599
Football Playoff Committee will go back and look at that

911
00:43:57,679 --> 00:44:02,280
game and see it through a different friends, maybe.

912
00:44:03,199 --> 00:44:04,800
Speaker 2: Don't see it from a different vantage point.

913
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:09,199
Speaker 3: They're gonna say, look, if BYU wins out right, so

914
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,880
by wins out By wins this game versus Teachu are

915
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,079
ReSpectacle beat poll team that six and three, that can

916
00:44:15,119 --> 00:44:16,679
compete with just about anybody.

917
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:16,960
Speaker 2: In the country.

918
00:44:17,199 --> 00:44:19,599
Speaker 3: They're high flying, high score and offense. They can sling

919
00:44:19,639 --> 00:44:20,840
it with the best of women. And we all know

920
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:25,559
college football. Everybody loves the deep ball. Okay, chicks did

921
00:44:25,599 --> 00:44:28,360
the d ball, and so does the College Football Committee

922
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:32,079
and media members. They love it, and it's it's a

923
00:44:32,119 --> 00:44:37,079
part of what TCU's identity really is. So if by

924
00:44:37,159 --> 00:44:39,719
you can win this game by seventeen points and then

925
00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:42,400
they go on the road and beat Cincy, you don't

926
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:43,519
have to beat them convincing.

927
00:44:43,599 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 2: You just gotta beat them. You know, win is it?

928
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:49,119
Speaker 3: Win is a win by one point, It doesn't matter

929
00:44:49,159 --> 00:44:50,840
you're on the road. You just gotta find a win

930
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:53,199
to win, and then you have another convincing victory at

931
00:44:53,239 --> 00:44:56,079
home versus UCF. It doesn't have to be a demolition

932
00:44:56,239 --> 00:45:00,000
like what Texas Tech just put on late on UCF today,

933
00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,039
It was like forty eight to seven. You don't need that,

934
00:45:02,119 --> 00:45:05,519
but you gotta have a nice, comfortable victory once again

935
00:45:05,639 --> 00:45:07,760
at home versus uc if you're gonna then get into

936
00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:10,000
the big Toeal championship game, and then you gotta be

937
00:45:10,039 --> 00:45:12,760
semi competitive with Texas Tech. It's gotta be better than

938
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:16,119
the twenty two point loss on their home field. At

939
00:45:16,159 --> 00:45:18,840
that point, by is a two loss team and you've

940
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:21,960
been competitive versus I believe a top five team in

941
00:45:22,079 --> 00:45:26,320
college football. There are five, maybe six elite teams in

942
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:29,599
college football this year, and then you have from five

943
00:45:29,679 --> 00:45:30,280
to fifteen.

944
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 2: These are great teams.

945
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:36,039
Speaker 3: I believe BYU at least three fourths of the time

946
00:45:36,559 --> 00:45:39,960
they're a great football team. Okay, they are a great

947
00:45:40,039 --> 00:45:43,360
football team. Did we showcase a few of our weaknesses

948
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,679
offensively and on special teams this last.

949
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:48,599
Speaker 2: Week in Lubbock, No doubt about it.

950
00:45:49,079 --> 00:45:54,320
Speaker 3: I was less disappointed in my in the offense, and

951
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,559
I was very disappointed in the special teams because I

952
00:45:57,559 --> 00:46:00,960
don't go into these games thinking, Okay, BYU offense has

953
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:05,519
to be the catalyst for momentum. We're deferring to the

954
00:46:05,559 --> 00:46:09,039
second half whenever we win the toss. That tells me

955
00:46:09,079 --> 00:46:12,760
a number of things. That tells me Kilani and his

956
00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:17,480
coaching staff believe that the defense and special teams are

957
00:46:17,519 --> 00:46:20,280
going to win US football games, and they're going to

958
00:46:20,320 --> 00:46:27,159
be the momentum changers, the field flippers, the turnover takeawayers.

959
00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:29,360
I know I'm making up words here, you know what

960
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,519
I mean, though, these are the momentum Uh, these are

961
00:46:32,559 --> 00:46:37,440
the momentum creators. And the offense's task to run the

962
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:42,400
ball effectively, maintain the ball, have time of possession, and

963
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:46,360
then create play action pass and every once in a

964
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,559
while take you know, take a shot down field.

965
00:46:48,559 --> 00:46:50,679
Speaker 2: Okay, our intermediate to short passing.

966
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,800
Speaker 3: Game has been phenomenal in eight games minus in the

967
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:59,840
Texas decade. That's who we are, that's our identity, and uh,

968
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:04,440
if you can keep it respectful, BYU, I think if

969
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:07,920
you went out and you do what I just eloquated

970
00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:11,960
on these airwaves, you're gonna get into the CFP. I

971
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:15,079
think the College Fotball playff Committee, with algorithms and human

972
00:47:15,119 --> 00:47:19,320
element will would give BYU the bid that you're looking

973
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,320
for in order to get into the college football Playoff.

974
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,840
Now you're gonna be, you know, in a seating that's

975
00:47:25,880 --> 00:47:27,679
gonna put you up against some of the best the

976
00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:30,960
elite teams in college football with that at large band,

977
00:47:31,039 --> 00:47:33,079
So you got to take what you get, and you

978
00:47:33,119 --> 00:47:35,880
could get blown out in a similar fashion to that

979
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:36,760
of SMU.

980
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,320
Speaker 2: Remember what happened with SMU last year.

981
00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:42,800
Speaker 3: That's the team that BYU competed with and b on

982
00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:44,079
their home field.

983
00:47:44,519 --> 00:47:48,000
Speaker 2: BYU was just as good or better than SMU. Last year.

984
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:49,920
You saw SMU get.

985
00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:53,119
Speaker 3: To the ACC Championship game and they lost to Clemson.

986
00:47:53,519 --> 00:47:57,599
They were not castigated and punished for losing in the

987
00:47:57,639 --> 00:48:01,440
conference championship game. They win into the College Football Playoff

988
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:04,159
and then they got pummeled by.

989
00:48:04,039 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 2: Like twenty seven point side thing and.

990
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:09,320
Speaker 3: Many said, hey, they didn't deserve to be there, But

991
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:12,440
they didn't I guess not deserve to be there. That's

992
00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:15,400
where you have to position yourself right now. If you're BYU.

993
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:20,159
That's the most likely probable scenario for BYU football to

994
00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:22,920
get into the College Football Playoff. Now, a miracle could happen.

995
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,440
They could win out and they could beat Texas Tech

996
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:27,800
in the Big Toal Championship game and get a phenomenal

997
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:31,079
seed in the College Football Playoff, and that's our hope, right,

998
00:48:31,119 --> 00:48:33,760
that's the that's the hope. But the probabilities are not

999
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:37,079
in BYU's favor to do that because Texas Tech spent

1000
00:48:37,159 --> 00:48:39,800
twenty eight million dollars on their roster and a lot

1001
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:42,199
of that was on the defensive side, and BYU's the

1002
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:45,880
weakest point on their football team out of the three

1003
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:49,760
fastests is actually their offense so week versus strength, and

1004
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,159
they actually have a really good offense too, and their

1005
00:48:52,159 --> 00:48:55,000
special teams is improving there at Texas Tech. So I

1006
00:48:55,039 --> 00:48:57,239
wanted to lay that out for you Cougar fans because

1007
00:48:57,239 --> 00:49:01,079
I think that that's the scenario that is most likely

1008
00:49:01,119 --> 00:49:07,360
to occur, and starting tonight, starting tonight, right, and look, yeah,

1009
00:49:07,400 --> 00:49:10,199
I understand like certain teams could lose, right, there could

1010
00:49:10,239 --> 00:49:13,519
be more college football cannibalism. I still feel the Big

1011
00:49:13,559 --> 00:49:17,760
twelve still, as the ACC does a branding issue.

1012
00:49:17,519 --> 00:49:19,679
Speaker 2: When you're going to against Big ten and SEC teams.

1013
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:23,039
Speaker 3: I know Alabama was left out last year, but there

1014
00:49:23,119 --> 00:49:25,360
was so much kicking and screaming and weeping and wailing

1015
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,079
the national team. I don't know if they do that

1016
00:49:27,159 --> 00:49:29,480
again to the SEC. I don't know if they do

1017
00:49:29,559 --> 00:49:31,719
that again to the Big twelve or sorry, Big ten.

1018
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:34,599
I think there could be a little bit more of

1019
00:49:34,639 --> 00:49:39,519
a shift towards those two power conferences from this year's committee,

1020
00:49:39,559 --> 00:49:42,280
and they're they're going to align with more of the

1021
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:46,480
algorithms and the analytics and maybe the strength of records,

1022
00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:50,920
strength of schedule that could pivot them away from what

1023
00:49:51,159 --> 00:49:53,039
happened last season.

1024
00:49:53,559 --> 00:49:55,400
Speaker 2: But ap you want to chime in on it, feel

1025
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:57,199
free to do such. What do you got for me?

1026
00:49:58,519 --> 00:49:58,920
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1027
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:00,239
Speaker 6: It was just uhh.

1028
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:05,719
Speaker 10: Greg Rubell just tweeted that, according to Klonie Satake, we

1029
00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:09,599
might see a new punter tonight. Bowler's shirts may end

1030
00:50:09,679 --> 00:50:13,760
up handling the punt and Sam Vanderharr might be limited

1031
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:15,599
to just holding duties tonight.

1032
00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:18,280
Speaker 2: Okay, so that's a breaking news.

1033
00:50:18,320 --> 00:50:21,920
Speaker 3: Look, this is why you listen to our show in

1034
00:50:22,039 --> 00:50:26,840
the off season. Okay, there was attrition. There was a

1035
00:50:27,039 --> 00:50:31,119
former there's a legacy player, Landon Rico, who's a good bunter.

1036
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:35,199
By the way, Ryan Rico's younger brother, Landon Rico entered

1037
00:50:35,199 --> 00:50:36,000
the transfer portal.

1038
00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:37,360
Speaker 2: It was a bit a surprise to all of us

1039
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:37,719
here Adio.

1040
00:50:38,159 --> 00:50:39,280
Speaker 6: We were surprised by it.

1041
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:42,119
Speaker 3: Right, Lanta Rico ended up at UTSA. He's their starting punter.

1042
00:50:42,199 --> 00:50:44,719
And if I'm not mistaking, land Rico's a really good puncher.

1043
00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:47,880
We maybe have to pull pull the seats on where

1044
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,039
Lando Rico's at right now and how he's punted.

1045
00:50:50,119 --> 00:50:54,000
Speaker 2: But he's at Utah State, So I I got a.

1046
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:57,519
Speaker 3: Little bit more detail on this, and and what happened was, uh,

1047
00:50:57,639 --> 00:50:59,440
Landon Rico essentially got beat out.

1048
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:00,760
Speaker 6: By Fuller Shirt yep.

1049
00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:03,599
Speaker 3: And and they were so excited about Fuller Shirts that

1050
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,119
like they kind of had to let go of Landon Rico.

1051
00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:08,079
Speaker 2: And Fuller has been.

1052
00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:11,159
Speaker 3: Pressing and pushing Fuller or excuse me, Sam vander Harr

1053
00:51:11,800 --> 00:51:15,480
uh the offseason and into the season now with Sam

1054
00:51:15,519 --> 00:51:19,599
Vanderharr struggling a little bit on the road and with

1055
00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:24,440
Fuller Shirts punting so well in practice, you're gonna see

1056
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:26,440
them tonight. You're gonna see that big old and that

1057
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:27,800
that's crazy.

1058
00:51:28,039 --> 00:51:33,599
Speaker 6: That's crazy, Ben, because one one one game, one game.

1059
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:38,440
Speaker 8: Been two punts that were shaying that were bad and

1060
00:51:38,519 --> 00:51:41,039
you lose your spot. Like that's how close it is

1061
00:51:41,039 --> 00:51:43,880
in cousin football. I want to point that out to people, like,

1062
00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:46,320
that's what it is. Sam vander Hart, who was good

1063
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:49,119
last year has been good. This year, Texas Tech wasn't

1064
00:51:49,119 --> 00:51:51,920
his game. But that's how slim the margin is. When

1065
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:54,320
you have talent behind you, you can lose your spot

1066
00:51:54,320 --> 00:51:56,079
in a heartbeat. So I don't want to hear from

1067
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,880
fans that are like, no, this is that that breaking

1068
00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:01,480
news that's big, Like I never would have thought Sam

1069
00:52:01,559 --> 00:52:03,440
would not you know, be kicking from the au for

1070
00:52:03,480 --> 00:52:04,000
the rest of the year.

1071
00:52:04,039 --> 00:52:06,000
Speaker 6: Potentially love that man.

1072
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:09,960
Speaker 3: Uh. Look, if you're tuning in right now for the pregame, okay,

1073
00:52:10,119 --> 00:52:13,039
and you're hearing this, I want you to show up.

1074
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:14,800
Speaker 2: Okay, I want you to show.

1075
00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:18,760
Speaker 3: Up and uh, I may have two tickets to give away.

1076
00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:21,800
Speaker 2: I may have two front row tickets to give away.

1077
00:52:21,800 --> 00:52:24,239
Speaker 3: If you are in need of tickets, you come up

1078
00:52:24,280 --> 00:52:26,280
to me and make your case on why you deserve

1079
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:27,559
these two tickets.

1080
00:52:27,559 --> 00:52:30,599
Speaker 2: These are actually Reno Mahes season tickets.

1081
00:52:30,639 --> 00:52:32,440
Speaker 3: He can't make it tonight because he's serving the Lord

1082
00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:33,719
with Elvis heart, mind and shout.

1083
00:52:34,599 --> 00:52:36,440
Speaker 2: He just texted me he said, look, I have.

1084
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,400
Speaker 3: Two tickets, two extra tickets, my tickets I want to

1085
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:42,199
give away to listeners that tune in to your show.

1086
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:45,119
Speaker 2: That's why I love Reno. Reno was my coach in

1087
00:52:45,159 --> 00:52:45,880
two thousand.

1088
00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,679
Speaker 3: Men in two thousand when I came to my my

1089
00:52:49,119 --> 00:52:51,599
only BYU camp, my first and only BAU camp, I

1090
00:52:51,679 --> 00:52:56,199
became MVP of the defensive backs and the entire camp

1091
00:52:58,119 --> 00:53:00,880
in two thousand with Reno being my coach in the

1092
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:02,199
seven on seven Championships.

1093
00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:03,800
Speaker 2: So he's given back to.

1094
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:10,039
Speaker 3: His uh his uh oh I guess his player, his

1095
00:53:10,159 --> 00:53:12,559
acco went back to the community giving back.

1096
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:17,000
Speaker 8: Have the statsree too for Lando Rico Atlanta. Rico's punted

1097
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:19,920
the ball forty six times this season that's not included

1098
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:23,480
today's game for two thousand and sixteen yards. That's forty

1099
00:53:23,519 --> 00:53:26,400
three point eight two yards per punt. He's has a

1100
00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:27,800
long of sixty three this year.

1101
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:29,280
Speaker 6: Man, God, I know crazy sick.

1102
00:53:29,320 --> 00:53:30,599
Speaker 2: I'm not ranked college.

1103
00:53:31,119 --> 00:53:32,599
Speaker 8: That's the next TI I'm gonna have to go look up.

1104
00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:38,199
And he's punched the ball above fifty five times four times.

1105
00:53:38,199 --> 00:53:42,920
Been wow, That's just why I said I never thought

1106
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:44,239
Sam loses fun Willard.

1107
00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:47,079
Speaker 6: He will must be really good behind him.

1108
00:53:47,119 --> 00:53:49,639
Speaker 8: If if you made that quick of a judgment after

1109
00:53:49,679 --> 00:53:52,000
one game, been that, he must be really that, he

1110
00:53:52,079 --> 00:53:52,920
must be fantastic.

1111
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:55,519
Speaker 2: I don't think Parker Kingston is losing his punp return job.

1112
00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:57,000
Speaker 6: I don't think. I don't think he is.

1113
00:53:57,119 --> 00:54:00,599
Speaker 3: I think, especially with Cody Hagen out and not being

1114
00:54:00,639 --> 00:54:01,920
as explosive.

1115
00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:03,400
Speaker 8: With Tiger not being EXE And this is where the

1116
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:05,920
double ed stort comes in. You're gonna go with Parker

1117
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:08,639
because although Parker made the mistake, Tiger's not as explosive.

1118
00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:10,559
He caught upon going into the end zone. You really

1119
00:54:10,599 --> 00:54:12,880
can't take that. You gotta take that into account. And

1120
00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:15,920
then Cody out. You go with your more experienced guy

1121
00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:17,920
and you trust him in that situation.

1122
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:18,800
Speaker 6: That's what's gonna happen.

1123
00:54:19,079 --> 00:54:24,599
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, crazy crazy stuff. Any other updates on the

1124
00:54:24,639 --> 00:54:29,360
personnel front, the injury report, Cody Haiggins out, Tommy Farrastus

1125
00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:34,519
who's out, Matthias Leitch is out, Marcus McKenzie, Marcus McKenzie out,

1126
00:54:34,599 --> 00:54:37,199
and I'm forgetting one more on the defensive side of

1127
00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:40,480
the ball. I'll pull it up here momentarily. But by

1128
00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:44,679
you overall fairly healthy, you do have some issues there

1129
00:54:44,679 --> 00:54:48,079
with some defensive backs being unhealthy. And what Jay Hill

1130
00:54:48,119 --> 00:54:50,000
did mention, He's like, it's really good to get Raider

1131
00:54:50,039 --> 00:54:53,559
back because we can rotate the safeties a little bit more.

1132
00:54:53,599 --> 00:54:57,960
Follows out Tanner and Raider can now rotate talent. Alfrey

1133
00:54:58,079 --> 00:55:01,480
is also in the lineups of talent ten uh player

1134
00:55:01,519 --> 00:55:03,519
at that strong safety spot. He's also played some free

1135
00:55:03,519 --> 00:55:06,559
safety for the KuPS. So, uh, that's kind of the

1136
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:08,119
situation with the injury report.

1137
00:55:08,159 --> 00:55:08,840
Speaker 2: What do you make of it?

1138
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:11,840
Speaker 8: Yeah, Look, the guys that have been out, the guys

1139
00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:13,880
that have been out for a long time been you

1140
00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:16,360
know who they are, right, you just mentioned the names. Uh,

1141
00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:18,559
look you've been making do without Tommy Prastis sounds like

1142
00:55:18,559 --> 00:55:19,440
he's going a red shirt.

1143
00:55:19,679 --> 00:55:20,679
Speaker 6: It's good to have righted back.

1144
00:55:20,679 --> 00:55:22,239
Speaker 8: I think the biggest one that might be overlooked as

1145
00:55:22,239 --> 00:55:25,039
an easy percell not having an easy per sell, especially

1146
00:55:25,079 --> 00:55:28,159
with Justin Kirkle's available. And that's on me having him

1147
00:55:28,199 --> 00:55:31,679
back because he's available now. Depending how healthy is if

1148
00:55:32,199 --> 00:55:33,519
he'll play, that's another story.

1149
00:55:33,559 --> 00:55:36,760
Speaker 3: But Justin Kirkland has been dubbed as a red one hundred.

1150
00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:38,599
Speaker 6: Well that was the thing without Justin.

1151
00:55:38,639 --> 00:55:40,679
Speaker 8: I mean, look, Anissa is playing well before you got

1152
00:55:40,679 --> 00:55:42,199
a little bit dinged up Ben, and that's the guy

1153
00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:44,800
I think you need to have along day defensive line,

1154
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:46,960
that front to stop the run of TCU, to make

1155
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:52,000
things easier in my opinion for your your b AU offense,

1156
00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:54,000
CC wants to throw, well, how do you affect the

1157
00:55:54,039 --> 00:55:57,480
quarterback pass rush? So Jack Kelly and Isaiah Lasker, look,

1158
00:55:57,480 --> 00:55:59,559
don't be surprised if they have a phenomenal game again.

1159
00:55:59,599 --> 00:56:01,920
But I really wouldn't even say the linebackers. I think

1160
00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,920
the defensive line is gonna get after. I think John Damapea,

1161
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:08,480
I think Keana Tanavasa, Logan Latilion, Hunter Klegg. I think

1162
00:56:08,519 --> 00:56:10,320
those guys can break out like I would not be

1163
00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:12,599
surprised if Hunter Klegg And I know he was credited

1164
00:56:12,639 --> 00:56:14,320
with the sack earlier in the season, but if he

1165
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:16,840
really got like his first sackle, he wraps the quarterback

1166
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:18,920
up and takes him down, not like hurrying him out

1167
00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:21,639
of bound. So I think the defensive line bin is

1168
00:56:21,679 --> 00:56:23,119
going to be a big factor in this game more

1169
00:56:23,159 --> 00:56:26,199
than people think. Not necessarily Bay's linebackers that always.

1170
00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:29,320
Speaker 3: Are gotta slow down the pass game of Josh Hoover.

1171
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:31,880
Speaker 2: That dude could sling that pill.

1172
00:56:32,039 --> 00:56:37,679
Speaker 3: Now we do have reports coming out that Hoover has

1173
00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:40,360
a hand injury. He ended up playing with a glove

1174
00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:43,559
this last week, But did that really slow him down?

1175
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:49,000
Speaker 2: Ap We've discussed this on the show. He's he's utilized

1176
00:56:49,039 --> 00:56:49,960
the glove in the past.

1177
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:54,519
Speaker 3: He threw the ball fifty times in that Iowa State game.

1178
00:56:54,719 --> 00:56:58,280
Now they lost twenty to seventeen. They could not establish

1179
00:56:58,360 --> 00:57:02,000
the run. He completed sixty eight of his passes even

1180
00:57:02,039 --> 00:57:04,719
with a hurt hand and thrown with a glove one touchdown,

1181
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:08,559
but he did throw two I and teas.

1182
00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:09,440
Speaker 2: Interesting.

1183
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:12,800
Speaker 3: How do you think that will impact this throw game

1184
00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:15,280
of Hoover and the TCU Hornfrogs tonight.

1185
00:57:15,400 --> 00:57:20,880
Speaker 10: Ap Honestly, my opinion, I love Josh Hoover as a quarterback.

1186
00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:23,280
He's actually one of my favorite quarterbacks. But when you

1187
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:26,320
don't have a run game to support you, it just

1188
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:29,239
gives the defense such an advantage. And throwing against the

1189
00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:33,039
secondary that has guys like Tanner Wall Raider, De Mooney,

1190
00:57:33,119 --> 00:57:38,000
follow tausatuwala, Evan Johnson, Trey Alexander throwing Maury Bomba, he

1191
00:57:38,119 --> 00:57:40,760
might find himself in some trouble and start throwing some

1192
00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:43,920
more interceptions. If TCU doesn't have a run game and

1193
00:57:44,039 --> 00:57:47,719
he's got a hurt hand. I like BYU's defense.

1194
00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:51,880
Speaker 3: I love that we may we'll get into our hot

1195
00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:55,039

the on the on the flat screens here, sixty four

1209
00:58:29,039 --> 00:58:32,239
to fifty three BYU in the bonus with nine to

1210
00:58:32,239 --> 00:58:36,559
twenty seven in the second half. They're making this a

1211
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:40,400
game after being down almost twenty points in the second half.

1212
00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:43,480
Speaker 8: Well, the kid that wears number two four, Dominque Diamonde,

1213
00:58:43,559 --> 00:58:45,679
the defense and energy that he's brought in in the

1214
00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:47,639
last three minutes has really helped b Why you cut

1215
00:58:47,639 --> 00:58:48,440
this lead to eleven?

1216
00:58:48,639 --> 00:58:50,880
Speaker 6: Still a long way to go, but he has really.

1217
00:58:50,719 --> 00:58:52,840
Speaker 8: Changed the game. Coming on the core, affecting and mucking

1218
00:58:52,840 --> 00:58:54,840
it up. So look, I mean, you're gonna have a

1219
00:58:54,920 --> 00:58:57,159
lot going on. He's got to learn not to commit fouls.

1220
00:58:57,440 --> 00:58:59,239
You know when guys are shooting three. He's still young.

1221
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:02,199
Remember he was that you nineteen France team. You know

1222
00:59:03,320 --> 00:59:05,159
you're stuck his leg out there. That was a freaking

1223
00:59:05,239 --> 00:59:07,559
Jane's hard move. Look, they they gotta they're gonna have

1224
00:59:07,559 --> 00:59:11,760

up up like waist high body James Harden, Jaferson and

1230
00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:33,519
obviously the Yukon starting point guard. Yeah, that that should

1231
00:59:33,559 --> 00:59:34,599
be an offensive foul.

1232
00:59:34,760 --> 00:59:35,679
Speaker 6: No, I agree with you. I'm with you.
