Speaker 1: What is up, Texas college football fans. I'm IndyCar Tim

football podcast, coming at you live from the fan Stream
Sports Studios in North Dallas. Also, of course part of
that college gridiron Coast to coast network hurt around the world.
Wherever you get your podcast, we appreciate everybody tuning in.
What an exciting and I guess kind of historic a
week that we had in Texas college football. You had
the Aggies ending Brian Kelly, it didn't come soon enough.
Down at LSU. You had the SMU Mustangs losing their
first ever regular season ACC matchup to a very unlikely
opponent in my opinion, lead. You had TCU edging one
out against somebody that they probably should have handled a
little bit easier. In West Virginia, you had the Texas
Tech Red Raiders that continue to roll. After that hiccup
against Arizona State. They're back on track, and really all
we're wondering is when's Barren coming back. You had the
Longhorns in the game that might have ended arts manning
for a minute squeaking past the Mississippi State Bulldogs there
in Starkville in a another game on the calendar they
should have lost, and yet somehow they find a way
and then add it all up. What do you got?

the biggest game of the week, the most impressive. You know,
we're talking Aggies. By the way, can't tell as I
get flustered talking about my Aggies, because I'm just waiting
for the for the glass slipper to fall off of
this thing. And every week they win and they get
it done in convincing fashion. And now I'm wondering if
those glass if one of those glass slippers, is ever
going to fall off, because I thought the Notre Dame
win was the most impressive win, and it was at
the time, But I think what you did going into
Death Valley and back to All Rouge on Saturday qualifies
for the biggest win of the year now for the Aggies.
And I don't know, maybe every win that you get
the rest of the year is the biggest win for
the Aggies. But you go into a place you hadn't
won at in a while, by the way, and you
lead your team to not just a victory over the
twenty ranked LSU Tigers and Brian Kelly, you finish off
the game, you take the second half by the Horns,
and you end any and all willingness to play the
game for the Tigers players. Poor Garrett Nessmeyer loved the dude,
familiar with his dad Doug and his time with the Cowboys,
but dude. He he got beat up on Saturday, and
I think that's a microcosm of the entire Tigers team.
What the Aggie's defensive line was able to do to
the line of scrimmage. To Garrett Neussmeier, just take away
all willingness to live from the Tigers players. You emptied
the stadium. I've been watching LSU football for a long time,
and I don't especially night game. I can't remember anytime
that the stadium has emptied out so fast. By the
start of the fourth quarter, that thing was barren. It
was Aggie's fans all the way around. Of course, they'd
moved up to the lower level seating, They've moved up
behind the benches, and there wasn't an usher in sight
that was gonna say anything to any of them. And
boys and girls, that was a site to behold. And
you could just tell that that wasn't gonna sit well
with the boosters, with the program. And it didn't take
long until Brian Kelly was given his walking papers. Look,
I don't like to see guys get fired. I've never
understood the Brian Kelly higher at LSU. I never got
it why he left Notre Dame to take that job.
He is not a Southern boy. He is not. He doesn't.
I never thought he'd fit in to the mold of
an SEC coach. Ever, and you know, he leaves Notre Dame.
Marcus Freeman comes in and turns that turns his roster
basically into a contender. Brian Kelly comes to an established
program at LSU and he doesn't improve it. He might
have maintained it, but I don't think he ever improved
that thing oh to two in the College Football Playoff
after going eleven and four in the D two Playoffs
where he cut his teeth there with Cincinnati. But yeah,
I just never got the move. And now it's over
thanks to Marcel Reed and the Aggies, thanks to Mike
Elko his game planning on both sides of the ball.
And it was just it was a sight to behold
for the now eight and O Texas A and m Aggies,
who were after their best start since nineteen ninety two
when they went twelve and oh before losing the Notre
Dame in the Cotton Bowl. Remember it well, I was
there with my dad with my pops watching the Aggies lose. God,
that was a good punch too for that season for sure.
But you know, Read, I don't consider Marcel Reid a
Heisman candidate. He's finally showing up on some of the
odds pretty high up. I just don't consider Marcel Read
a Heisman candidate for any other reason than he plays
for the Aggies. Yes, and I know John David Crowe,
I know Johnny Manziel, I get it. I just don't
think he's done enough to set himself apart. You know,
when Johnny Manziel won it back in twenty twelve, there
was no question he was gonna win it. There was
nobody that was close Marcel. There's a lot of competition
for the Heisman this year, and I don't think that
Marcel Reid is doing anything to set himself apart. Now,
if the Aggi's running the table and win a Natty,
you know, I don't know, or you know, the voting
will be before that, but you know, if they get close,
I mean maybe, I just I don't see it happening
from Marcel Read this season as a sophomore, but he
passed for two touchdowns and ran for two more scores
and turned a very slim halftime deficit into a forty
nine to twenty five victory. On Saturday, Casey Concepcion caught
one of Reid's touchdown tosses and returned to third quarter
punts seventy nine yards for another score to put the
game away. They snapped a six game skid at Tiger Stadium,
winning there for the first time since nineteen ninety four,
back when forty eight year old Mike Elko said he
was starting at point guard for his high school basketball team.
Was the last time the Aggies won at Tiger Stadium
in bat ball rouge, and he had a heartfelt Yet, man,
I don't know direct message for the team at halftime,
because watching the watching the game, something changed at halftime.
You could tell by the way they came out playing,
by the way they just dominated in the second half.
And I was thinking, to my football brain, what did
Mike Elco tell this this team? And he came out
after the game he said he told them, quote, you
are the better team, and if you don't play better football,
you're going to let one slip away end quote. And man,
that is all the team needed to hear. That message
hit home and because of it, they're where they are now.
Brian Kelly's out of work. Don't know how long that'll be.
Reid goes for two hundred and two yards and rushed
for another one hundred and eight, highlighted by his forty
one yard touchdown scramble, as he continues to build a
case for his Heisman Trophy consideration. His other touchdown pass
was a short flip to Jamerian Morrow, who covered most
of the plays twenty four yards after the catch. Marrow
added an eleven yard touchdown on the ground in the
fourth quarter. Garrett Nussmeier, who said no to the twenty
twenty five NFL Draft to return to LSU, saw his
highly anticipated senior season season just continued to fold and crumble.
He threw for one hundred and sixty eight yards. He
had a short TD pass to Green, but he was
sacked five times and he was pulled from the game
with six minutes and two seconds left. Just beaten and battered.
LSU let it at halftime eighteen to fourteen. But special
teams plays defense just dominated the second half for the Aggies.
Once again, you had an Aggies blocked punt. This was
not returned for a touchdown, but it was out of
the back of the end zone for a safety. Looked
like another one of these, like, holy crap, here we go. Aggis.
Of course you had the early blocked punt for a
touchdown against Notre Dame that you overcame and they overcame
this one. Uh, just just an all around effort, man.
And like I said, I've said this before, if you
guys listened to this show or you've listened to my
Texas A and m Aggies Daily blitzet fanstreamsports dot com,
this team's different. And these are the games that the
Aggies found ways to lose the game against Mississippi State.
Those are the games that they found ways to lose
under the old regime, under all the old regimes, going
back to r C. And the culture is different. How
many times did you hear if you watch the game,
how many times did you hear the broadcasters talk about
Aggie culture, the culture of this team. There was six
minutes left. The game was not in question. The Aggies
had put this one one away. Yet there was no
celebrating on the sideline. There were no guys high five
and smiling looking around taking in the moment. Nope, the
game was still going on and they were still working.
They were still looking at at the game photos they
were they still had coaches in their ears and they
were listening intently. There was nobody that quit because they
were up big. That is the difference in this Aggie's
culture from that of Jimbo, from that of someone going
back to the damn Dennis Francioni days, and that that's
why it's different, Like you're not an Aggie's fan. I
apologize for spending so much time, but I thought I
thought it was the most notable game of the week.
Here as Brian Kelly is looking for work there in
the SEC or wherever he's gonna go, who knows where
he'll go. He with his fifty three million dollar buyout,
whatever it was, he doesn't have to work for a while.
Him and Jimbo Fisher may go fishing together or something.
I don't know. We'll see. Congratulations to the AGUS though
still number three in the country, eight to oh five
and oh the in the conference. And it looks like
a collision course for Old Miss and Texas A and
M and the SEC championship game if things remain as
they are, with both teams playing very very well right
now this late in the season. Now, let's move on
to gotta do our woofh sound. Let's move on to
the Texas long Horns, the number twenty two Texas long Horns,
as once again they underperform to a subpar opponent. Nothing
against Mississippi State, but they shouldn't be on the same
level as the long Horns. Even though they're at home.
They're winless in the SEC. They were barely a game
over five hundred heading into this matchup, and you really
had no hope unless they could take advantage of a
bad Longhorns offense. That was not to be the case.
That the Longhorns had every every reason to go in
and lose this game. You go into the fourth quarter,
you're the Longhorns, you are down thirty one to fourteen,
and you have done nothing to give anybody any reason
to think you were going to come back and win
this game, or that you should have come back and
win this game. It was it was nowhere to be found.
You look like LSU in the second half against the Aggies,
in the first half against the Bulldogs, you had nothing
going for you. Then you get Ryan Niblett's seventy nine
yard punt return to tie the game with just one
forty seven as the Longhorns erase that deafist it Matthew
called Well end up going to overtime. Matthew Caldwell throws
that touchdown pass to Emmitt Moseley after Arch was knocked
out of the game with an apparent injury as the
Longhorns come roaring back to beat the Bulldogs. And I
don't know, I don't know which team looked worse, the
first half Longhorns or the second half Bulldogs, but it
was a display of futility for both programs at some
at whatever point during the game. The Longhorns were still
down thirty eight to twenty one with twelve twenty nine
left in the game, Booth had that sixty two yard
catch and run for a touchdown for Mississippi State. Then
you get a twenty one yard touchdown pass from Manning
to Moseley with nine to thirty four left, Mason Shipley's
twenty six yard field goal in the final five minutes
to get to within a touchdown for the Longhorns. Manning
ended twenty nine to forty six for three hundred and
forty six yard Yeah, twenty nine four six for three
hundred and forty six yards free touchdowns, one pick. He
also had a rushing touchdown before leaving early in overtime.
The Bulldogs Blake Shapin, the old Baylor quarterback, had a
career game. He finished twenty six to forty two for
three hundred and eighty one yards and four touchdowns, but
it was not enough to end what is now a
sixteen game SEC losing streak for the Bulldogs, twelve of
which have come under Jeff Levy's leadership. Mississippi State will
get things figured out. That's It's a situation where I
think they've got talent. I like Jeff Levy. You gotta
get that first SEC win, right. You got to stop
the streak and then I think wins will come in
bunches for them. Texas did finish with four hundred and
twenty eight yards of offense. The Bulldogs had five sacks
twelve tackles for loss, but for the Longhorns, they had
seven on shape and he was dropped four times in
the final minutes of regulation and overtime. Look, the long
Horns were dead in the water, but continue to find
ways to win despite not playing up to their potential.
I still believe the offense is broken. Arch Manning had
again flashes signs, but I still don't have confidence in him,
and now he's he's injured, I haven't seen an update.
I probably should have looked for it for you guys,
but you can look for that on the Texas Longhorns
Daily Blitz at fanscreensports dot com. We'll have that for you,
probably out on Wednesday or Thursday this week for an
update on Arch's condition and his injury. But man, somehow,
some way, the Texas Longhorns find a way to stay
in the hunt. Because you lose to Mississippi State and
you are out of the college football playoff hopes, those
are dead for you, very very dead, and you know
what they may still be because your schedule the rest
of the way is not super are favorable for the
Longhorns to make a deep playoff run or even a
playoff appearance, because you've still got number nine Vandy at
home coming up this week. Then you've got to travel
to Georgia based on those number five Bulldogs. You've got Arkansas,
which you're better than, but how will you play that
one's at home as well in Austin. And then of
course you host the Aggies after Thanksgiving to close out
the regular season schedule, the Longhorns have every opportunity to
lose what three of those four games, at least two
of those four games. You lose one more of these things.
With three losses, you are out of the playoff picture.
And you again, you might already be anyway, but we
will see, we will see. But man, kudos to the Longhorns.
They keep finding ways to do it despite their offense,
despite their offensive line, despite Arch Manning struggling. So we
will see somebody who was not struggling. As we transition
once again, those Texas Tech Red Raiders, the number fourteen
Texas Tech Red Raiders. You come back from that hiccup
against Arizona State, and you wonder what this thing would
be like right now had you taken care of those
sun devils forty two to nothing over the Oklahoma State Cowboys.
The Cowboys now following one and seven, they're winless in
the Big Twelve. The Red Raiders, of course, improved a
seven and one, four and one in the Big Twelve,
and they've got a They're on a collision course I
think with BYU for the Big Twelve title game. We'll
see how things finish out here. Towards the end of
the season. But you know, Houston might have something to
say about that. Cincinnati might have something to say about that.
But we'll see how this thing progresses. Jacoby Williams returned
the opening kickoff ninety nine yards for a touchdown and
took a short past twenty six yards for a score
on Tech's first play. It jump started the Red Raiders
to that forty two to nothing victory at home. Jacob
Rodriguez returned to fumble sixty nine yards for a touchdown
as Tech bounces back from the disappointment at Arizona State.
That loss to the Sun Devils, of course, dropped the
Red Raiders out of the top ten, as it should have.
They will climb. They're back at fourteen now. It was
Texas Tech's first home Big twelve shutout since two thousand
and five, when they beaten Baylor twenty eight to nothing.
Once again, you had a weather to lay out in
Lubbock thirty minutes to start the game. William's return came
on the first kickoff since school officials banned the years
long for day of fans throwing tortillas on kickoffs, and look,
I will give my I will give my thoughts on this.
I did not go to Tech. I do have family
ties to Tech. I love Tech clearly my favorite Big
twelve team, and I don't I understand this band. I
I completely understand it, but I don't like it. You
know that that's one of the things that sets College
out of from the pros, right you, things like this,
Traditions like this. You've got the cow bells in Starkville,
You've got the twelfth Man in College Station, You've got
the tortillas in Lubbock. And again, I get it from
a safety standpoint, I get it, but I don't like it.
I didn't like the Big Twelve band to horns down
back in the day. Good Lord, that was the stupidest
thing I've ever heard in my life, next to banning tortillas.
But again, I get it. Things are not the same,
and you know what, we'll come up with something else.
The Red Raiders have been penalized twice on kickoffs in
their previous home game for things being thrown onto the
field in violation of a new Big twelve rule that
was that came out in August. There I didn't see
any tortillas on that play or for the rest of
the game. But we'll see, we'll see. You know again,
it's a safety thing. I get it, but I don't
like it. Texas Tech blocked to punt on the first
possession for the Cowboys, leading to Williams TD catch on
the screen from will Hammond, who started a second consecutive
game in place with the injured Baron Morton. Third stringer
Mitch Griffiths replaced Hammond in the second quarter after Hammond
sustained what McGuire said later was a knee injury without contact.
Gurn runn. You hate to see or hear about the
non contact knee injuries. I've sustained well, a couple of those,
a couple of them with contact as well, and you
never like to see those. Morton changed from street clothes
to his uniform at halftime with the Red Raiders leaguing
twenty eight to nothing. He would have been if Griffiths
had gone down, you would have had to see Baron Morton,
but he didn't have to get his uniform dirty. Griffith
threw a touchdown pass and ran for a score in
the third quarter, and man, how deep is this quarterback
room for the Red Raiders. It's incredible McGuire said Morton
could have started against the Cowboys, but the decision was
made for another week of healing. He said Morton hyper
extended his right knee and the opener and aggravated the
injury against the Jayhawks back on October eleventh. McGuire said
he felt good with Will and Mitch. They wanted to
get Morton another week of rest to get him as
healthy as they can for the closing stretch of the
season here. But if something crazy was gonna happen to
Mitch and it was going to be a competitive game,
they would have been able to put Morton in. Oklahoma
State was limited to one hundred and eighty two yards
in a seventh consecutive loss. Since beating lower division Tennessee
Barton in the opener, the Cowboys have three shutout losses
of at least forty two points since twenty twenty two.
Jacob rodrieg is eleventh career fumble recovery that is second
among active F ANDBS players. Never touched the ground. He
ripped the ball out of the arms of the offensive
player in the middle of the line of scrimmage and
ran untouched for the score. It was a thing of
beauty that you are seeing more and more of these days.
I think at all levels, guys just can't hang on
to the ball even when you're holding it. It's crazy thing.
Griffiths kept Morton on the bench by leading a scoring
drive for a thirty five or zhering lead on Tech's
first possession of the second half. He lost three yards
on a fourth and one keeper on his first play
after replacing Hammond, but his full first possession with the
team ended up being a punt. But we know how
things turned out. Griffiths was more than serviceable. We will
evaluate Hammond find that. On the Texas Tech Red Raiders
daily Blitz at fans Streamsports dot com, Texa Tech has
Kate k State coming up on Saturday. Should be a
fun game. All my text all my k State fans
already texting me, reaching out to me. So we will
monitor that game very very closely. Another win by a
Big twelve team for you here in Texas As. Those
TCU horn Frogs went out to West Virginia to take
on the Mountaineers. They come away twenty three to seventeen victorious.
The horn Frogs improved to six and two three and
two in the Big twelve. The Mountaineers fall to two
and six and winless in the Big twelve. At zero
to five, Josh Hoover and pressing again. He threw a
touchdown pass Nate mccashel and kicked three full goals and
TCU outlasted West Virginia. On Saturday night, TCU barely outgained
West Virginia. It was three hundred and forty three to
three hundred and forty two. He can't get much closer
than that, but tc if you made the most of
their opportunities, West Virginia did not. CCU started its first
three possessions past midfield and led ten to nothing before
West Virginia had even mustered a first down. Each team
scored in their initial touchdown. Each team scored their initial
touchdown on a short field following poor punts. After Trent
Battle opened a strong with a strong score on a
one yard run for the Horned Frogs, Hoover fooled West
Virginia's defense with a fake handoff and then found Eric
McCallister on a four yard scoring toss. Midway through the
second quarter. It was seventeen to seven Frogs. McCallister was
targeted eighteen times. He got nine passes for one hundred
and twenty four yards. Hoover's tied with two others for
the most touchdown passes at twenty one in the country.
Entering play. He finished twenty fourth thirty nine for two
hundred and forty seven yards. Mccaslan kicked field golds of
thirty five, twenty two, and forty one. West Virginia did
now lost five straight and the Mountaineers have been held
to seventeen or fewer points five times this season. West
Virginia freshman Scotty Fox junior threw two touchdown passes, including
a twenty eight yard to Jeff Wimer with three point
fifteen left in the game that got the score to
where it was. Tc recovered the ensuing on side kick
and ran out the clock. McAllister gave his team a
scare though he caught a twenty one yard touchdown pass
on third down, but fumbled and teammate Major Everhart recovered
it at the West Virginia nineteen with two minutes left.
You know, TCU is clearly a better team, but you're
on the road. It's a big twelve game, and I
don't care who your opponent is. When you're on the
road in the Big Twelve. Anything can happen in these
conference games. And you know, we've talked about parody in
college football this season. I think we've seen it more
this season than in recent seasons. When you've got a
five and two team hitting the road to play a
two to five team in the Big Twelve, literally anything
can happen. You've got to take care of your p's
and q's, you've got to take advantage of your situations
like Tech, like TCU did, and I'll call it an
impressive win. I don't think you should have had that
much trouble with West Virginia, but I'll go so far
as to call it an impressive win here for the
horn Frogs, who now have an off week before hosting
Iowa State on November eighth. West Virginia plays at Houston
on Saturday. For those Cougars, Now we get into the
losers of the conference. I don't think I did this
on purpose, but our final two games here were losses.
An inexplicable loss for me. For the Mustangs, who head
out to Wake Forest, they fall to the demon Deacons
thirteen to twelve on a last play field goal. A
SMU now loses their first regular season ACC game. You
knew it was coming, and you felt like it was
coming this year for sure. SMU falls to five and
three overall, three and one in the ACC. The Demon
Deacons improved of five and two two and two in
the ACC. Connor Calvert barely made a fifty yard field
goal on the final play to give Wake Forest the
thirteen to twelve win over SMU on Saturday, sending the
Mustangs to their first loss in the ACC and regular
season play. The Mustangs had won twenty straight regular season
conference games, the longest at the time active streaking the nation.
SMU won it's last nine in the AAC in its
first eleven since joining the ACC. Last season, players and
coaches stayed on the field demanding review of the ruling
of the successful field goal. It was very, very close.
There was no formal review on the field, but replays
showed that it did clear the bar. And to tell
you how close it was, it hit the center post,
that padded center post. If you didn't see the game
or see the play, it hit that padded center post
after going through the crossbar. So that's only what five
feet I think distance between the crossbar to the post
as it's sort of you know, in angles down there
where the padding is. So of course when you see
it hit that post, your immediately thought, Your immediate thought
is why it was short, because it went under the
crossbar and then it hit the post. But it did not.
Replays showed that it cleared the crossbar and then it
went down and hit the post. That's just how narrow
of a make it was. But that's all you gotta do.
That's all you gotta do. And SMU left a lot
of plays on the field on Saturday against wake Forest.
I was impressed with how wake Forest took advantage of
their opportunities. For the most part, SMU did not Jake
Dickard to coach it at wake Forest has a lot
of things to celebrate. Kevin Jennings in check thirty nine
f one hundred and seventy one yards. There were eight turnovers,
two missed field goals, and a blocked extra point kick,
and seventeen punts in this game and it was well
played defense by both schools. Both coaches admitted that they
conceded that and if you like defense, this was a
game for you. It was a fun one to watch
if you like defense. It was just a fun one
to watch. Unfortunately for the Mustangs they fall on the
losing end of it. And then our other, our other
matchup for this week, it's head up to Cincinnata. Those
number twenty one Bearcats all over the Baylor Bears. And
this was a case of a better team at home
playing a subpar team on the road, is what it
came down to. You had Brendan Sowarsby throwed through touch
two touchdown passes, running for another as the Bearcats more
than double up Baylor forty one to twenty on Saturday.
The Bearcats now have won seventh straight for the first
time since twenty twenty one when they reached the college
Football playoff, and of course we know who was their coach.
Then Baylor trailed twenty four to nothing late in the
first half and then cut it to twenty seven to
twenty early in the fourth quarter behind two posts, two
touchdown passes, and a rushing touchdown by Sawyer Robertson. Soresby's
twenty three yard touchdown cap to twelve play seventy five
yard drive that took more than seven minutes to make
it thirty four to twenty with six minutes left in
the game. It was another situation on Saturday of Cincinnati's
starting fast. The Baylor Bears got a third down stop
on the Bearcats first possession, but a pass interference penalty
gave Cincinnati a first down. A one yard touchdown run
by Walker Captain eighty one yard drive put the Bearcats
ahead seven to nothing. The Bearcats found all the success
that they needed on the ground two hundred and sixty
five total yards. A sack on third down resulted in
a Baylor punt. Cincinnati drove sixty six yards in ten plays.
Evan Pryor's five yard touchdown run made at fourteen to nothing,
and he kind of already got the feeling like the
Bears are out of this very very early. Things did
not go well the rest of the way. Stephen Russknack,
the Bearcats kicker, It's gonna get confusing Saint Bears and
Bearcats here. He made two more field goal attempts to
improve on to eleven four eleven on the season. He's
made twenty two straight attempts dating back to last season
when he played for Charlotte. He's the only kicker in
the country did not have missed a field goal attempt
since the start of the twenty twenty four season. What
a weapon that is, just asked the Dallas Cowboys there
in the NFL. So yeah, it's it was not a
good performance by Baylor. We're seeing what Baylor is. They're
probably a five hundred team, which is right where their
record is right now. Overall, things are going to get
more tough as Baylor hosts UCF on Saturday, Cincinnati heads
to Utah on Saturday, and we will see how the
rest of the college football week plays out here again,
teams to watch. Let's keep an eye on those Aggies.
Let's keep an eye on those Longhorns, see what this
situation is with Arch Manning. Keep an eye on those
Texas Tech Red Raiders, see if they can finish strong.
And we're getting teams now vying for position here for
their conference championships around the country, which will then of
course lead us into the college football playoff again. High
hopes for the Big Twelve for you know, an appearance. Again.
We mentioned the teams that are really really good. We've
got Tech, We've got Baylor, We've got Cincinnati, all right,
BYU not Baylor, clearly not Baylor. BYU, Texas Tech, Cincinnati, Houston,
all going strong here in the Big twelve, just like
you like to see. And then of course the Aggie's
dominating the SEC. And by the way, North Texas Mean
Green had a week off. We we'll get back to
