No, I wasn't school. I wasn't really there. 70 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:07,639 In fact, you and I think actually had a couple 71 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:11,159 of classes together, but we know because again I wasn't there. 72 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 6: However, I do remember being in school, and you either 73 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,680 it was either when you had an exam you had 74 00:03:17,719 --> 00:03:20,199 to go to the testing center, or for me, mostly 75 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:21,960 it was more what I had to dig project I 76 00:03:22,039 --> 00:03:24,360 knew was due the next day and I hadn't started yet, 77 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,879 and I felt a lot of pent up anxiety, and 78 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,759 I was a little nervous and just unsure of what 79 00:03:29,879 --> 00:03:31,159 was gonna happen the next day. 80 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 5: Or maybe if you've ever started a new job. 81 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 6: That kind of anxiety that comes with what is tomorrow 82 00:03:37,039 --> 00:03:40,120 going to look like? That is how I have been 83 00:03:40,159 --> 00:03:43,000 feeling for the last twenty four hours and how I 84 00:03:43,039 --> 00:03:49,240 will be feeling until the game clock hits zero tomorrow. Man, 85 00:03:49,319 --> 00:03:53,680 I am feeling real nervous, real anxious about this game BYU. 86 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 5: In Texas Tech, and and I'm. 87 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 6: I don't want to say I'm ready for it to 88 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,520 be over, because it's gonna be quite the experience whatever happens. 89 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:02,360 But I got to tell you, I'm feeling super anxious 90 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,560 about this thing tomorrow makes me feel like back when 91 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:05,280 I was in school. 92 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,159 Speaker 3: Yeah, when you got a big time game, the butterflies come. 93 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,319 Maybe it's a good butterfly and nervous butterfly. But I 94 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,560 wonder how many of the BYU athletes will be juiced 95 00:04:13,639 --> 00:04:16,680 or will be uh, you know, nervous. I guess tomorrow, 96 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,560 excited to play in the big moment. How many of 97 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,160 you Cougar Nation are you? I guess that's what I 98 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,600 should ask because you go Disney Question of the day. 99 00:04:23,639 --> 00:04:26,120 G Man will hate this if he's listening to the show, 100 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,600 but he doesn't like the mouse. But I should ask 101 00:04:28,639 --> 00:04:34,079 a Disney question inside out? Are you nervous, happy, sad, frustrated, anxiety? 102 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,600 Which emotion do you have in relation for its bau's 103 00:04:37,639 --> 00:04:40,560 matchup tomorrow against Texas Tech. But it sounds like you're 104 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,879 more on the nervous anxiety side. 105 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,199 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's definitely where I'm at. Because the more game 106 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,800 previews I watch and things like that, the more I 107 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:56,199 feel like this is maybe BYU's biggest regular season game ever. 108 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,680 I mean, look, BYU has never been in a position 109 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,160 where the compete. We know it's probably the biggest game 110 00:05:03,199 --> 00:05:06,639 ever because we know, they've never been a top ten 111 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:08,279 team against the top ten team. 112 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:09,839 Speaker 5: They've never had a top ten matchup. 113 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 6: They've also never had a position like this prior to 114 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,160 being in the Big Twelve, where they were competing in 115 00:05:16,199 --> 00:05:19,879 a game that would probably determine whether or not they 116 00:05:19,959 --> 00:05:24,720 went to a power for conference championship, and therefore would 117 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,839 determine whether or not they made a playoff that puts 118 00:05:27,879 --> 00:05:30,680 them on the path to go to a national championship. 119 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,480 And I know all the old heads are gonna come 120 00:05:32,519 --> 00:05:34,240 for me, but I'm just saying, the Knights and eighty 121 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,120 four national championship did not require you to play in 122 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,199 a playoff to get there, so things are a little 123 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,519 bit different. This is maybe the biggest game in the 124 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:47,920 history of BYU, and I'm all for people picking against BYU, 125 00:05:48,079 --> 00:05:52,079 but it feels like that every version of the national 126 00:05:52,079 --> 00:05:56,040 media believes that BYU has not even not going to 127 00:05:56,079 --> 00:05:58,199 win this game, but that they have no chance to 128 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,240 win this game. And so for from that standpoint, I 129 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,319 just really don't know what to expect tomorrow. But I 130 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,879 even though subconsciously I feel anxious, I do feel as 131 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:13,279 though BYU will not let me down. 132 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, BYU hasn't let you down. The season eight no 133 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,000 so far, got a lot of good wins, got that 134 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,040 went on the road against Colorado, started off fourteen nothing, 135 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,680 came back and won that from twenty four to twenty one. 136 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,319 Then you went on the road to Arizona beat them 137 00:06:27,319 --> 00:06:30,399 in double overtime thirty three to twenty seven. Look, it's 138 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:33,680 this is not gonna be an easy game, not at all. 139 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,920 But BYU has been able to prevail, I mean spank 140 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,279 Diowa State put the belt to booty in the second half, 141 00:06:39,519 --> 00:06:42,480 outscored them thirty one to three. So look, at the 142 00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,480 end of the day, Kaloni Sataki's gonna have these guys ready. 143 00:06:45,519 --> 00:06:48,480 So there's not really an emotional inside out to describe, 144 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:49,720 you know, excited. 145 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 4: You just have joy, which is you know, that's how 146 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:53,439 I'm feeling. It's just a lot of joy. 147 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 3: I think the Cougars are gonna be able to get 148 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,240 it done and Levey can shock the world, especially for 149 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:58,879 those guys in the national media. 150 00:06:58,959 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 4: Josh Pate, you don't even watch tape? 151 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,439 Speaker 3: How dare you speak on BYU and you don't watch 152 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,319 You don't check no type of tape. And if you 153 00:07:05,399 --> 00:07:07,399 just admit to it, Hopefully by you can make you 154 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,720 et cro Joel Klatt, you too, at least you do 155 00:07:09,839 --> 00:07:11,639 check tape. You do check tape. You're on the A 156 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,399 team over there at Fox. But hopefully they make Joel. 157 00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:15,600 It will be very funny. 158 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:17,199 Speaker 4: H Brad. I want to ask you this. 159 00:07:17,319 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 3: So if Joel Klatt, if you what you beat sexist Tech, 160 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,399 what would Joel Clatt have to say about BYU and 161 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:23,319 his show next week? 162 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 4: That's what I'm really curious about. I really like BYU. 163 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,079 Speaker 3: And then you can see the clip as edited Brett, 164 00:07:28,079 --> 00:07:30,519 because we know all about how Towder use Premiere goes 165 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,639 on to the next clip and doesn't say anything. What 166 00:07:32,839 --> 00:07:36,040 will he have to say if BYU beats Texas Tech nothing? 167 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,639 Because I mean it's starting to get real obvious about 168 00:07:38,639 --> 00:07:41,079 the national media. If BAU takes down Tech and they 169 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:42,120 still have nothing to say. 170 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,959 Speaker 6: Yeah, I can tell you exactly how that clip is 171 00:07:44,959 --> 00:07:47,680 gonna go. Man, Bo, you played a really great game 172 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,879 on Saturday. Okay, now, so on to Miami, Miami, what 173 00:07:50,959 --> 00:07:54,199 they did this weekend? And if Joe Clatt. I think 174 00:07:54,839 --> 00:07:59,800 I think in Joel Klatt's mind, BYU just doesn't exist. 175 00:08:00,439 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 5: I think sometimes I don't I don't. 176 00:08:03,519 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 6: Again, I still don't really know what he's all about, 177 00:08:06,879 --> 00:08:09,759 why it feels so personal, But it does feel as 178 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,360 though he doesn't want to talk to about BYU unless 179 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,000 he absolutely has to, and I think that's the case 180 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,639 for a couple of guys. The problem then becomes when 181 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,480 the college football slate isn't that crazy this week, and 182 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,240 I mean, there's some good games, but there's certainly no 183 00:08:26,399 --> 00:08:28,920 other games than any other conference that are between two 184 00:08:29,399 --> 00:08:32,440 top ten opponents. So none of these guys who already 185 00:08:32,879 --> 00:08:35,840 have a are predisposed to not liking BYU. They're in 186 00:08:35,879 --> 00:08:38,120 this weird spot where they have to talk about it, 187 00:08:38,639 --> 00:08:43,240 and so Joel Klatt I think will be obviously eating 188 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,159 Crow on Monday, But I really don't want to get 189 00:08:46,159 --> 00:08:48,759 ahead of anything because this game still has to play 190 00:08:48,799 --> 00:08:52,399 out tomorrow and I'm not one hundred percent sure on 191 00:08:52,519 --> 00:08:53,320 how it's. 192 00:08:53,159 --> 00:08:53,919 Speaker 5: Going to go. 193 00:08:54,519 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 6: But there will be a lot of analysts eating Crow 194 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:01,200 on Monday if BYU wins this thing. 195 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,879 Speaker 3: Look, let's get to the rest of our ESPN the 196 00:09:03,919 --> 00:09:06,519 fans starting lineup.

Coach, thanks for joining us. Huge game 287 00:13:17,159 --> 00:13:18,480 this weekend. How you doing. 288 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,399 Speaker 1: Man, Thanks for having me. I appreciate being on the show. 289 00:13:22,519 --> 00:13:25,960 Doing good. You know, we had a good Tuesday. It's 290 00:13:26,039 --> 00:13:27,279 crazy around here right now. 291 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 10: I mean, I bet there's one thousand tenths wrapping around 292 00:13:30,279 --> 00:13:30,960 the stadium. 293 00:13:32,159 --> 00:13:34,279 Speaker 1: I walked out of here last time at nine point fifteen. 294 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:35,720 My truck is. 295 00:13:35,919 --> 00:13:39,039 Speaker 10: Probably forty yards away from the front door, and I 296 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:42,240 got in my truck at ten forty six, So. 297 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: That kind of tells you how many pitchers and autographs 298 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,879 and all kinds of stuff that I did. Because our 299 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,639 students are jacked up for this game. 300 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 9: The coach, we want to dig into that game in 301 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,120 just a second. But last night, the first round of 302 00:13:55,159 --> 00:13:57,639 the college football rankings come out, and the Big Twelve 303 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,279 has three teams in the rankings. And not just three teams, 304 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,799 but the Big Twelve has all three teams ahead of 305 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,840 anybody from the ACC From your perspective, what does that 306 00:14:06,879 --> 00:14:10,480 say just about the health overall of the league. 307 00:14:10,879 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's pretty incredible the level of football 308 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,440 that's being played right now in the Big Twelve. You know, 309 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:24,120 and again I was biased last year. I thought that 310 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,559 we should have gotten two in. You know, I thought 311 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:31,039 b YU should have been in the playoffs. They beat sm. 312 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:36,559 Speaker 10: U head to head at SMU, and so hopefully people 313 00:14:36,559 --> 00:14:41,279 were seeing that the Big Twelve we played great football 314 00:14:41,399 --> 00:14:45,320 every single week. You're gonna have somebody knock somebody off 315 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,559 just because I think there's great players, and then there 316 00:14:49,559 --> 00:14:50,840 are great coaches. 317 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: In this league. 318 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,440 Speaker 3: Well, coach, you're talking right here, bred, I want to 319 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,360 comment right quick on this, he thought, Joey mcgrade, this 320 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,240 is Texas teach, a coach. He said, I thought by 321 00:15:00,279 --> 00:15:02,840 you should have got in last year. They beat SMU 322 00:15:02,919 --> 00:15:05,039 head to head. Brett, this is discussion you and I 323 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,679 had all last year. We referred to a lot this 324 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:11,200 season that BYU should have been in, but they weren't. 325 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,600 And look, I get it. Four way tie. They controlled 326 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,480 their own destiny. FUM with the bag lost to Kansas 327 00:15:17,519 --> 00:15:19,879 at home. That really can't happen. Lost Arizon the still 328 00:15:19,919 --> 00:15:21,399 on the road. Can't let that happen. But that was 329 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,799 the best team they went onto the College Football Playoff 330 00:15:23,919 --> 00:15:25,240 and took Texas down to the wire. 331 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 4: So okay, I understand that. 332 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 3: But there you go, and maybe it's coaches saying maybe 333 00:15:29,879 --> 00:15:33,399 he's having some gamesmanship. Are you buying or selling what 334 00:15:33,519 --> 00:15:35,879 Joey McGuire is saying right there? Is he just saying 335 00:15:35,879 --> 00:15:37,799 that because of the matchup? Or do you actually believe 336 00:15:38,159 --> 00:15:40,159 Joey believes by You should have gotten in last year? 337 00:15:40,159 --> 00:15:45,679 Speaker 6: Brett, No, he definitely does. He said this as well 338 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,440 as his presser on Monday, And I think just we 339 00:15:49,519 --> 00:15:52,399 say this every week, right, like these coaches they really 340 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:56,639 respect Kalanie Sataki. Brent Brennant said it, Matt Campbell said it, 341 00:15:56,639 --> 00:15:59,960 now Joey McGuire is saying it. It says a lot 342 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,720 a lot about who Kilani is that all of these 343 00:16:03,759 --> 00:16:10,159 coaches openly give him respect in outlets and scenarios in 344 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,759 which they don't have to. They don't have to say 345 00:16:12,799 --> 00:16:16,759 anything nice about BYU or about Kilanie Sataki. But every 346 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:18,799 week we get this, and I think it just speaks 347 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:23,480 to who Kilani is and via that you hear people 348 00:16:23,559 --> 00:16:27,200 talk all the time about this BYU culture, love and learn, 349 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:28,320 humble and hungry. 350 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:29,919 Speaker 5: You hear the players say it. 351 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 6: But you may have the question of what is this substance, 352 00:16:34,639 --> 00:16:38,960 what is this really? Well, I can't really quantify it 353 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:44,120 for you exactly what Kilani's culture is like if I 354 00:16:44,159 --> 00:16:46,320 had to just really get down to the nitty gritty 355 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,159 of it, because I'm not in there, I'm not in 356 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,960 the locker room. But what I can tell you is 357 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,240 by you successful and Kialani Sataki is making an impact 358 00:16:54,279 --> 00:16:58,080 on every single one of these coaches in the conference, 359 00:16:58,399 --> 00:17:02,480 so much so that now Joey McGuire twice this week 360 00:17:02,519 --> 00:17:05,000 has gone on record saying he thinks, boy, you should 361 00:17:05,039 --> 00:17:07,759 have gotten into the playoffs last year, keeping in mind 362 00:17:08,039 --> 00:17:10,920 by You didn't even play in their conference championship, which 363 00:17:11,039 --> 00:17:15,039 just goes to show you just how good these coaches, 364 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:19,440 and specifically Joey McGuire believes BYU is. 365 00:17:20,559 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, these Big twelve teams are no Joe guys, every 366 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,759 one of them. I mean ap Andrew Peterson said this 367 00:17:25,839 --> 00:17:28,240 yesterday on the show. If you missed it, I'll read away. 368 00:17:28,319 --> 00:17:30,000 He said, TCU is still a good team. 369 00:17:30,079 --> 00:17:30,559 Speaker 5: Even if you. 370 00:17:30,599 --> 00:17:33,759 Speaker 3: Beat Texas Tech, you know you got TCU next week. 371 00:17:33,799 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 4: Even if you lose the Texas. 372 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,759 Speaker 3: Tech, TCU six and two overall, like they're no slouch. 373 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,279 You know there's six and two in conference play. You 374 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,839 lose to Texas Tech tomorrow, you lose to TCU next week. Look, 375 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,400 not only you behind Texas Tech, now you're on TCU 376 00:17:46,799 --> 00:17:49,319 like you would be in the same position last year. 377 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,519 So that's why this is deja vu, and the by 378 00:17:51,599 --> 00:17:53,680 you loses this game, they're gonna a lot of fans 379 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,839 that are gonna always make fun of me for my 380 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:56,720 chicken little reference. 381 00:17:56,799 --> 00:17:58,759 Speaker 4: The sky will definitely be following. 382 00:17:58,839 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 5: Oh. 383 00:17:59,039 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 3: I've heard multiple people guess we've had on the show, 384 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,720 they're in a good spot if they lose one game, 385 00:18:03,799 --> 00:18:06,599 like yeah, but if TCU wins and coming in next week, 386 00:18:06,839 --> 00:18:09,400 unless you're guaranteeing that will win, I just I don't know. 387 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,200 I think it's always good to focus on the game 388 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:12,799 in front of you. You win that game, it makes 389 00:18:12,799 --> 00:18:15,200 it easier. Like I mentioned before, I'm not trying to 390 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:18,119 give any losses earlier and predict that out. Gregor Belt 391 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,279 said that yesterday he's not willing to go that far either. 392 00:18:20,559 --> 00:18:23,039 But you beat Texas Tech, you beat TCU, that puts 393 00:18:23,079 --> 00:18:24,680 you in a better driver's seat to get into that 394 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:28,559 title game than not so big important matchup tomorrowl College 395 00:18:28,599 --> 00:18:29,799 game did Let's get back to the sound. 396 00:18:29,799 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 4: This is Joey mcgarre breaking down. 397 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:35,519 Speaker 3: The matchup between BYU yesterday in the Big Twelve studios. 398 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 4: Let's get back to. 399 00:18:36,839 --> 00:18:39,559 Speaker 8: It about the great players and coaches in this league. 400 00:18:39,759 --> 00:18:43,000 Your team has displayed great balance on both sides of 401 00:18:43,039 --> 00:18:45,480 the ball. I mean, your defense ranked in the top 402 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,720 five in the country. Your offense putting up points per 403 00:18:48,799 --> 00:18:51,319 game top five in the country. Can you speak to 404 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,599 that balance a little bit and how you've been able 405 00:18:53,599 --> 00:18:55,759 to lean on that to such great success this year. 406 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 10: But you know, even before the transfer portal opened last year, 407 00:19:00,279 --> 00:19:02,920 I felt like we won the offseason from the standpoint. 408 00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:06,200 You know, we added two brand new coordinators, sheill Wood 409 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,880 on defense and Mac left Which on offense, and man 410 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,960 I just through the interview. 411 00:19:11,599 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 1: Process for those guys, man I just. 412 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 10: Fell in love with what they wanted to do and 413 00:19:15,559 --> 00:19:17,559 their thought process and what they believe in. 414 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,039 Speaker 1: And then we added some great players and we were 415 00:19:20,079 --> 00:19:21,920 able to get some great players to come back to 416 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:26,039 Texas Tech. And you know we talk about all the time. 417 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,440 Speaker 10: Hey, if we give up a score on defense, then 418 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,319 you got to answer a score with a score. So 419 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:34,359 it's this complimentary football, and our players had bought into that. 420 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,640 Speaker 1: I mean they talked about it like ever. 421 00:19:36,759 --> 00:19:40,119 Speaker 10: Before I ever get to them, they're already talking about, Hey, 422 00:19:40,559 --> 00:19:42,440 thank the offense or thank the defense. 423 00:19:42,599 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: What they're doing. 424 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 4: Texas Tech Brett is the most balanced team in the 425 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:47,519 Big twelve. 426 00:19:47,839 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 3: I said it, Yeah, I am. I'm going to give 427 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,160 them that credit. They've earned that right if they're the 428 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,279 most balanced team. I know they have one loss on 429 00:19:53,319 --> 00:19:56,920 the resume, but they are the most balanced team in 430 00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:01,400 the Big twelve offense offensively and defensively, no doubt. I 431 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,279 know Arizona State got the better of them with the 432 00:20:03,319 --> 00:20:06,039 backup quarterback, but look, I mean they ranked number one 433 00:20:06,039 --> 00:20:09,759 of defensive grades and then number eighteenth offensive grades Pro 434 00:20:09,799 --> 00:20:12,000 Football Focus. We have Max Shadwick on the showfront of 435 00:20:12,039 --> 00:20:15,799 the program. Look, this team is very scary. They can 436 00:20:15,799 --> 00:20:17,640 get after it at you on the defensive side of 437 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,759 the ball with scooping scores and interceptions and force fumbles 438 00:20:20,799 --> 00:20:23,279 and making you really earn it. And then offensively they 439 00:20:23,279 --> 00:20:25,079 can push the ball vertical. I mean they're number one 440 00:20:25,559 --> 00:20:27,799 in big plays vertically down the field. They got three 441 00:20:27,799 --> 00:20:30,079 receivers that are a problem. They got a quarterback that 442 00:20:30,079 --> 00:20:31,839 can throw it out. He does use his legs, maybe 443 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:35,079 not as much, he is still mobile. So I mean, look, 444 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,880 all the numbers and metrics are in favor of Texas Tech. 445 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:39,759 But you know what that makes it for Brett if 446 00:20:39,759 --> 00:20:41,279 a team is able to go out there and. 447 00:20:41,319 --> 00:20:42,839 Speaker 4: Beat you and make you one dimensional. 448 00:20:44,799 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, and look, I go back and forth with this 449 00:20:48,559 --> 00:20:51,480 Texas Tech team for a couple of reasons, and I'll 450 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:55,000 get into it. This is a team that did lose 451 00:20:55,039 --> 00:20:58,240 to Arizona State, a four and two Arizona State team 452 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:01,039 at the time. And this is also a team I know, 453 00:21:02,759 --> 00:21:06,960 like the Utah game I think was also telling. What 454 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:11,319 I think is most impressive about this Red Raider offense 455 00:21:11,839 --> 00:21:14,759 is the fact that they've been bouncing back and forth 456 00:21:15,079 --> 00:21:19,160 between quarterbacks and still been able to play with a 457 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:23,480 high level of success. That to me, is really impressive. 458 00:21:23,519 --> 00:21:25,680 Ron we know Will Hammon's come in. We've seen Baron 459 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,079 Morton play. I'm trying to remember the name of their 460 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,279 third stringer. His name escapes me. But he's also played 461 00:21:31,279 --> 00:21:35,599 some minutes and amongst all of that, you really haven't 462 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:40,880 seen a drop off, which is unreal because Ron Let's 463 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:41,640 being honest. 464 00:21:42,079 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 5: If BYU had to play one. 465 00:21:43,799 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 6: Through three at quarterback, never knowing who was going to 466 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,799 be next that I don't know that they would have 467 00:21:48,839 --> 00:21:51,519 the same level of success that Texas Tech is having 468 00:21:51,559 --> 00:21:54,680 right now, nor the loan the success success that they 469 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:58,160 are having right now. In BYU, we've seen Colorado. Colorado's 470 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,480 been rolling out three different quarterbacks. Look how that's worked 471 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:04,359 out for them. I do think Texas Tech deserves a 472 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:10,160 lot of respect for how how much continuity they've been 473 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:14,119 able to find in this offense, irrespective of who is 474 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:18,759 lining up behind the center at that quarterback position. However, 475 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:23,319 I will say, given what we saw between Texas Tech 476 00:22:23,319 --> 00:22:26,880 at Arizona State and Texas Tech at Utah, I do 477 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,519 think Tech Arizona's Sorry, Texas Tech has shown you some 478 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,799 things to say. Okay, these guys, even though they are 479 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,880 great and maybe the best team in the Big Twelve, 480 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,559 they are beatable. 481 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:40,319 Speaker 4: Yeah, They're definitely beatable. 482 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 3: I'm look, they're not gonna go No team I think 483 00:22:42,759 --> 00:22:45,000 is gonna go unscathe them. People are like Ronnie just said, 484 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,640 bo you'd win. Look, Look, I think there's one loss 485 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,000 on the schedule for this BOU team. I changed my 486 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:52,759 record prediction last week and I stand out in it 487 00:22:52,799 --> 00:22:55,160 of eleven to one. I really believe Kalanie Sataki can 488 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,440 get this team to the title game. I also said 489 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,200 that last year, but I believe it's very different with 490 00:23:00,279 --> 00:23:02,720 what I've seen from Bear. I said that last year 491 00:23:02,759 --> 00:23:05,599 with Jake, but there was I also said, look, if 492 00:23:05,599 --> 00:23:07,640 he's gonna cost you a game, it's gonna come down 493 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,200 to him. I don't think it's gonna come down to 494 00:23:09,279 --> 00:23:11,920 quarterback play. I have not seen Bear yet cost to 495 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,680 Byu a game. I don't think he was just gonna 496 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:17,039 do it. I don't think the offensive line, So who 497 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:18,799 is gonna what is texta Tech gonna be able to do? 498 00:23:18,839 --> 00:23:21,000 Are you gonna force b YU in the turnovers? Like 499 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,359 if BAU were to lose this game, Brett, I don't 500 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,599 think it'd be to the play of the quarterback player 501 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,359 Bear Bachmar. I think it'd be of maybe the offensive 502 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,519 line not performing up the task, which they probably still 503 00:23:30,519 --> 00:23:32,440 find a way to blame the quarterback. It might be 504 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,400 the receivers getting the ball stripped. Like I think there 505 00:23:35,519 --> 00:23:38,079 there's a lot of credit that can be given to Bear, 506 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,960 but I don't know if Bear and a Rod necessarily 507 00:23:41,279 --> 00:23:43,319 can get the blame because a Rod's had all the 508 00:23:43,319 --> 00:23:45,920 pieces to the puzzles in every answer to the test 509 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:47,640 you can think about. And this is not multiple choice 510 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,799 of crown allowed, it's filling the blank. This is the 511 00:23:49,839 --> 00:23:52,960 hardest test. This is written responses. And every time you've 512 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:54,880 asked Aaron Roderk at number forty seven to go to 513 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:56,000 work because they've performed. 514 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, I do think there is a possib bil though Ron, 515 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,359 that we see things change up this weekend. 516 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:04,640 Speaker 5: And here's what I mean. 517 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:12,640 Speaker 6: BYU has been going unscathed without necessarily all of their pieces. 518 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,720 They've been down a top three receiver, they've been down 519 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,319 running backs, and it really hasn't hurt them yet. 520 00:24:21,039 --> 00:24:23,160 Speaker 5: I don't want this to happen. 521 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,039 Speaker 6: But I certainly could see it being the possibility of 522 00:24:26,839 --> 00:24:31,400 maybe this is the week where all of those things 523 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,039 that have been working against BYU that Aaron Roderick and 524 00:24:35,079 --> 00:24:39,400 Bear Bachmeyer have been able to keep at bay, maybe 525 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:43,119 those things start to rear their ugly heads. Maybe it 526 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,000 starts to show up that you need the run game 527 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:50,640 and it's not there. I think we could wake up 528 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,519 on Monday morning with fans saying this is a Roden, 529 00:24:53,519 --> 00:24:56,400 this is Bear Bachmeer's fault, not because. 530 00:24:56,079 --> 00:25:00,039 Speaker 5: It actually is, but simply because. 531 00:25:00,079 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 6: There are things that have been working against BYU that 532 00:25:03,039 --> 00:25:06,720 haven't shown up yet that are really out of BYU's control. Again, 533 00:25:06,759 --> 00:25:09,839 like the c Only Moay injury, other things like that 534 00:25:09,839 --> 00:25:12,079 that kind of puts you at a disadvantage. I think 535 00:25:12,079 --> 00:25:15,599 it's possible that while BOU has been really great at 536 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,160 avoiding those issues so far, Texas Tech is going to 537 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:23,000 maybe expose all of your wounds and that may show 538 00:25:23,079 --> 00:25:25,359 up as one this weekend. 539 00:25:25,759 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. 540 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,000 Speaker 3: If it's if there's a team that's going to expose 541 00:25:28,039 --> 00:25:30,519 every single wound, there's going to be Texas Tech. If 542 00:25:30,599 --> 00:25:33,079 Utah couldn't get it done, then it's the Red Raiders 543 00:25:33,079 --> 00:25:34,720 because look what the Red Raiders did to the youth. 544 00:25:34,839 --> 00:25:38,160 So I mean, right now, you still gotta, you know, 545 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:40,920 say that Texas Tech is not maybe the best team 546 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,440 in the conference, but they're right up there with Bye. 547 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,359 You want to say, one A, one B, however you 548 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,559 want to play it. They they're up there, no doubt. 549 00:25:47,599 --> 00:25:49,759 Let's get back to the sound Texas Tech. Joey Maguire 550 00:25:49,839 --> 00:25:51,599 joins inside the Big Twelve. 551 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,599 Speaker 9: Talk about winning the offseason and the pieces that you 552 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,440 brought in. And there's been so much made of the 553 00:25:56,519 --> 00:26:00,319 talent acquisition from this offseason specifically, but a lot of 554 00:26:00,319 --> 00:26:03,480 teams bring in great players. Can you speak to not 555 00:26:03,599 --> 00:26:05,799 just that you brought these players in, but the buy 556 00:26:05,839 --> 00:26:08,440 in and clearly the culture that you've built in Lubbock 557 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,319 and the success that you're getting out of those portal acquisitions. 558 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,759 Speaker 10: Yeah, I think it says a lot about our culture. 559 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,880 I think it says a lot about our staff. 560 00:26:18,039 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 1: Man. 561 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 10: Whenever I say our staff, I mean our trainers, our 562 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:26,599 strength staff, are nutritionists, our sports therapists, our administration. It 563 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:28,920 says a lot about the building as far as the 564 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,000 facilities that we pour into these players. 565 00:26:32,039 --> 00:26:35,079 Speaker 1: And one thing that we try to do is we 566 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,079 try to be the same every single day no matter 567 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:37,720 what's going on. 568 00:26:38,279 --> 00:26:40,119 Speaker 10: You know, they're going to get the same coaches, they're 569 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,559 going to get the same support staff around them, and 570 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:45,200 they don't how. 571 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 1: Much we care about them, so that there's a huge 572 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,799 buy in, and you know, I think, Man, I'll tell 573 00:26:49,839 --> 00:26:52,119 you I learned this a long time ago. 574 00:26:53,039 --> 00:26:54,880 Speaker 10: I mean whenever I was in high school. I remember 575 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:59,000 this Soto going undefeated in our district and when we 576 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,039 were at the All district meeting, we're voting for the 577 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,480 staff of the year, and there was another team that 578 00:27:03,799 --> 00:27:07,000 was a kind of traditional losing team, and a lot 579 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,440 of people wanted to put. 580 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,599 Speaker 1: That staff up for a coach of the Year. And 581 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,960 I appreciated what they had done, but I don't think 582 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:19,720 people account for when you have the amount of talent 583 00:27:19,799 --> 00:27:22,559 you have and it's new and being able to play 584 00:27:22,559 --> 00:27:24,839 at the level that you're playing at. 585 00:27:25,559 --> 00:27:28,599 Speaker 10: It says a lot about the coaching staff and the 586 00:27:28,799 --> 00:27:32,680 entire staff of bringing this group together and the chemistry 587 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,160 and care that we have for each other. 588 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 4: I think I just want to stop here because I 589 00:27:37,039 --> 00:27:38,119 think this is very powerful. 590 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:39,039 Speaker 5: I mean, and I'm. 591 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 3: Going to flip it towards the bau side. When he 592 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,240 says coaches and enjoying mcguarire class aact. He's like, I'm 593 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,440 not talking about a coach. I'm talking about strength staff, conditioning, 594 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,160 sports scientists, you know, nutritionness. He's given all of those 595 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,519 people credit to make it happen, because look, at the 596 00:27:52,599 --> 00:27:54,559 end of the day, when these players in off season 597 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:56,720 workouts in the off season are before they come, look, 598 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:58,720 the coaches take over, but when they have to get 599 00:27:58,759 --> 00:28:01,359 lifts hand Brett when they have to gain muscle, gain 600 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,880 weight when all of that, that's that's that staff, like 601 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,920 that is what he's talking about. And they travel with 602 00:28:06,039 --> 00:28:08,839 the team, you know, some of them. But that's the 603 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:12,920 biggest thing. So Ryan Phillis, Kobe Class and doctor Skyler Maine, like, 604 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,319 you got to give those guys credit for bou because 605 00:28:15,559 --> 00:28:19,039 this is the healthiest I've seen BYU football. 606 00:28:18,559 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 4: Being a long time. 607 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:22,440 Speaker 3: And even when some of the starters have gone down, 608 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,400 you know, let's talk about it, Jack Kelly, Isaah Glasker. 609 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:27,079 Speaker 4: You know what has happened. 610 00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 3: Other guys like a Skufusi stepped up, Max Alfred has 611 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:32,279 stepped up. There's been a bunch of people, you know, 612 00:28:32,319 --> 00:28:35,079 even Celia Sarah when he got hurt, and you're starting 613 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,119 to see that, you know, even Tommy Prass's went down. 614 00:28:37,039 --> 00:28:38,839 Speaker 4: They still got good depth in safety. 615 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,599 Speaker 3: Like this strength of conditioners have deserves a lot of 616 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,279 credit for keeping guys healthy but also developing and getting 617 00:28:45,279 --> 00:28:47,519 the guys behind them that are on the roster. Like 618 00:28:47,559 --> 00:28:51,319 Cla said after the I believe it was the Colorado 619 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,839 or you know it's the Arizona game. He said, Look, 620 00:28:53,839 --> 00:28:55,319 there's a reason why we went out and got those 621 00:28:55,319 --> 00:28:57,759 players who trust him reason why they're here. Basically you 622 00:28:57,759 --> 00:29:00,480 paid those players or got them for a reason and performance. 623 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,319 So credit to those guys too on the BYU side, 624 00:29:03,359 --> 00:29:05,519 because Jordy McGrath is right, those guys do a lot 625 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:07,960 of stuff and sometimes you not get all the credit 626 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,240 that they deserve, you know. So I think when you 627 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,000 look at coaching staff, you definitely need to look at 628 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,200 more internally, the personnel of the behind the scenes what's 629 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:20,880 going on, and not necessarily special teams coach coordinators, head coach. 630 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 5: One hundred percent agree. 631 00:29:22,559 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 6: The thing I took away from that listening to this 632 00:29:25,359 --> 00:29:28,920 Joey maguire clip and talking about how difficult it is. 633 00:29:29,079 --> 00:29:32,839 Speaker 5: I mean, this is a reality of the college football. 634 00:29:32,519 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 6: Landscape that we live in right now, which is transfer portal, 635 00:29:35,519 --> 00:29:40,440 which is big paydays to incentivize players to come. 636 00:29:40,319 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 5: To your school. 637 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:45,319 Speaker 6: You no longer have time to like develop a culture 638 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:49,680 year over year with guys. It's an install that you 639 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:56,240 kind of have to do immediately. And I gotta be honest, Ron, 640 00:29:56,319 --> 00:29:59,039 it is really hard for me to root against this 641 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,720 Texas Tech. It's we're in such a weird spot with 642 00:30:02,759 --> 00:30:06,319 this game, right we know it has college fotball playoff 643 00:30:06,319 --> 00:30:07,319 and implications. 644 00:30:07,359 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 5: We know it has Big Twelve title implications. 645 00:30:10,119 --> 00:30:15,079 Speaker 6: We know it has college football cannibalism expectations within the 646 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:19,559 conference of the Big Twelve. And I really respect what 647 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,640 Joey McGuire has done with this Texas Tech football team, 648 00:30:22,839 --> 00:30:25,440 especially when you're hearing him talk about how tough it 649 00:30:25,519 --> 00:30:28,359 is to get these guys to all buy in and 650 00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,759 to continue to get guys to play at a high 651 00:30:30,839 --> 00:30:35,720 level year in and year out, and with as tightly 652 00:30:35,759 --> 00:30:38,720 contested as this game is going to be. I just 653 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:43,160 I just keep finding myself finding respect for Joey McGuire 654 00:30:43,359 --> 00:30:46,160 and this Texas Tech team and obviously the guys. Ivan 655 00:30:46,279 --> 00:30:48,279 Ortiz story of it all makes it really hard to 656 00:30:48,359 --> 00:30:50,680 root against Texas Tech. But man, I just I have 657 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,079 a lot of respect for Joey McGuire and what he's 658 00:30:53,119 --> 00:30:55,680 done with this program, especially with his unique story. 659 00:30:56,039 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, if you don't know. 660 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 3: Anything about what Brett mentioned is give you a little 661 00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:02,480 bit more context. Ivan the barber for the Texas Tech 662 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,480 football team. Love that the whole football team has one barber. 663 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,920 Shout out to Malachai.

It's hard 669 00:31:23,079 --> 00:31:27,079 to root against Texas Tech in that regard of BAU fans. 670 00:31:27,079 --> 00:31:29,920 You've been generous, even if you're not a BYU fan. 671 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,640 The you fans that also have been generous too of donation. 672 00:31:32,759 --> 00:31:35,440 Everybody's helping.

You know, you want to protect them, 683 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,039 but not sheltering them and letting them be adults, but 684 00:32:01,279 --> 00:32:03,680 teaching them be the best adults that there possibly can 685 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:05,799 be and I know that some people like that adult beverages, 686 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:07,759 but look, you got to teach people that they can't 687 00:32:07,759 --> 00:32:09,440 be get behind the will like a man and his 688 00:32:09,559 --> 00:32:12,240 family was affected by like you hit somebody's daughter, you 689 00:32:12,279 --> 00:32:16,680 hit somebody's wife, you hit somebody's aunt, somebody's niece.

What are your biggest keys for 850 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:06,159 BOU to take down Texas Tech tomorrow? I have mine, Brett. 851 00:39:06,159 --> 00:39:07,760 Speaker 4: I'll bring up the caboose, but I'll start with you 852 00:39:09,079 --> 00:39:09,880 biggest keys. 853 00:39:11,039 --> 00:39:15,199 Speaker 6: Something Texas Tech has done that has gotten them into 854 00:39:15,679 --> 00:39:20,519 problems this season is starting slow. They started slow against 855 00:39:20,679 --> 00:39:25,159 Arizona State. They started slow against Utah. Now I know 856 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:28,400 technically Texas Tech did I believe score on their opening 857 00:39:28,519 --> 00:39:32,280 drive or so in the beginning of that Texas of 858 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:35,159 the the Texas Tech Utah game, But after that they 859 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,119 had a tough time getting on the scoreboard. And I 860 00:39:37,159 --> 00:39:40,079 don't believe they scored in the second or third quarter. 861 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,519 It a lot of most of it came in the 862 00:39:42,599 --> 00:39:45,679 bulk of the fourth quarter. And then in this Arizona game, 863 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:48,920 Arizona State game, they also didn't score until middle of 864 00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:49,800 the second quarter. 865 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:54,119 Speaker 5: So in both of Texas Tech's closest. 866 00:39:53,679 --> 00:39:58,119 Speaker 6: Games this season, they have struggled to really get points 867 00:39:58,199 --> 00:40:01,599 on the board early. If EYU wants to beat the 868 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:05,800 Texas Tech Red Raiders, they have to continue that trend 869 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:10,599 of keeping Texas Tech offense outside of the end zone, 870 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:15,039 and then I think eventually this bou offense will find 871 00:40:15,039 --> 00:40:17,039 a way to get in. The other thing they have 872 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,679 to do, and this kind of goes along with that, though, 873 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,000 is you've got to make Baron Morton uncomfortable for a 874 00:40:23,079 --> 00:40:26,199 couple of reasons. Number One, we know he's been injured 875 00:40:26,599 --> 00:40:29,000 quite a bit this season, and we don't wish injury 876 00:40:29,159 --> 00:40:32,559 on anybody. But if you can hit Baron Morton enough 877 00:40:32,639 --> 00:40:35,079 to make him uncomfortable with whatever he has going on, 878 00:40:35,639 --> 00:40:41,880 you can turn him into some turnover worthy plays PFF grades. 879 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,199 When Baron Morton is in a clean pocket, he's elite. 880 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,480 When he's in a dirty pocket, he struggles big time. 881 00:40:47,559 --> 00:40:50,519 He's night and Day. He's Doctor Jekyl, mister Hyde. He 882 00:40:50,639 --> 00:40:53,199 is a completely different quarterback when he's clean as opposed 883 00:40:53,199 --> 00:40:55,920 to when he's pressured. But man, when he's clean, he 884 00:40:56,599 --> 00:40:59,599 is good. So those are the things you have to do. Obviously, 885 00:40:59,679 --> 00:41:01,800 we know what this Texas Tech run game is all about. 886 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:06,239 It's probably it's they got running backs on level with LJ. 887 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,559 Speaker 5: Martin, So you're gonna have to slow those guys down. 888 00:41:09,679 --> 00:41:13,079 Speaker 6: But getting Bear and Morton uncomfortable and keeping this Texas 889 00:41:13,119 --> 00:41:15,039 Tech offense out of the end zone. 890 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:17,599 Speaker 5: Early is gonna be big keys for BAU to get 891 00:41:17,599 --> 00:41:18,199 a win tomorrow. 892 00:41:18,559 --> 00:41:20,320 Speaker 4: Love the keys of the game. I agree with you. 893 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 3: You do got to keep them on the en zone. 894 00:41:22,039 --> 00:41:23,719 That's actually one of my keys. I'll give you four, 895 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,280 not necessarily an order, but just how I wrote them down. 896 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:29,000 Here's the first one. You gotta survive the pass rush, Brett. 897 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,760 I think that's the first thing my keys. If you 898 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,679 don't survive the pass rush, if the offensive line, if 899 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:36,559 the boys up front are winning in the trenches, you're 900 00:41:36,599 --> 00:41:40,159 gonna get Bear killed. Like I mean, they rank first 901 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:44,039 nationally defensive efficiency, like, they're dominant on early down. So By, 902 00:41:44,159 --> 00:41:46,480 you have to be able to win on first down. 903 00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,760 You can't let Texas Tech puts into a second and 904 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,840 long and then you're forced to throw the ball. Then 905 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:51,480 you're in third along. 906 00:41:51,559 --> 00:41:52,400 Speaker 4: So you gotta by. 907 00:41:52,519 --> 00:41:55,880 Speaker 3: You have to win, survive the pass rush, boys up front, 908 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:57,239 and they have to win on first down. That's the 909 00:41:57,519 --> 00:42:00,239 that's my first key. Second key is you gotta turn 910 00:42:00,320 --> 00:42:02,719 them over. You gotta play the turnover game, like the 911 00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:07,360 path to victory is forcing Texas Tech to take field 912 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:11,199 goals BYU has very good red zone defense. They tighten 913 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,880 it up and on third and long, you really make 914 00:42:14,599 --> 00:42:17,079 the Red Raiders get points, forcing the good points. They 915 00:42:17,079 --> 00:42:19,920 struggle at special teams, which is key number four. I 916 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:22,360 hate to jump down at to but intertwin to intertwine 917 00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,320 in a little bit. Is you gotta make sure that 918 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:28,920 special teams is on point, Bratt. You gotta make sure 919 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,039 that you're forcing the field goal kicker who struggled to 920 00:42:32,159 --> 00:42:33,960 take long field goals and miss. That's gonna give you 921 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,360 a competitive advantage. And I guess to jump down to 922 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,280 more special teams, you need a special teams touchdown. I 923 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:40,920 think this is the game where you saw it in 924 00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:43,559 the Portland State game, Jack Kelly, a return the block 925 00:42:43,639 --> 00:42:46,920 field goal attempt. Look, you gotta return a block punt. 926 00:42:47,440 --> 00:42:51,480 You gotta return a punt, kickoff, well, a kickoff return 927 00:42:51,639 --> 00:42:53,760 or a punt to you like, somebody has to get 928 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:54,519 into the end zone. 929 00:42:54,679 --> 00:42:57,239 Speaker 4: What it'd be Cody Hagen, whe did that be Parker Kingston? 930 00:42:57,440 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 3: Whether they block one, somebody has to return a special 931 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:03,000 teams play for a touchdown. I think you gotta be 932 00:43:03,079 --> 00:43:05,760 plus one in the special teams category and then plus 933 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,840 two in turnover margin, whether that's a force frombo or interception. 934 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,960 You need to make Baron Mordon turn a football over because, 935 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:13,400 like you mentioned, they can push the ball. They have 936 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:16,079 an explosive offense. They're not gonna hold back. And when 937 00:43:16,119 --> 00:43:19,239 he has time in the pocket, when he delivers, he delivers. 938 00:43:19,639 --> 00:43:21,639 You tall people are gonna like me saying this, but 939 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:23,960 I mean he's like Carl Malone. He's the mailman because 940 00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,000 when Baron Moore's on, he delivering. Sorry to bring that up. 941 00:43:27,039 --> 00:43:28,800 That might hurt some feelings, it is what it is. 942 00:43:29,159 --> 00:43:32,199 And then the number three is Look, you know I 943 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:34,320 had already mentioned turnovers and I said limit them the 944 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,239 field goals. You gotta make him pay for a time 945 00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:41,039 of possession. You really do, make the opposition pay. Make 946 00:43:41,719 --> 00:43:45,000 Texas Tech pay for holding the football for a long 947 00:43:45,119 --> 00:43:48,639 time possession battle. If BYU holds Texas Tech to field 948 00:43:48,679 --> 00:43:52,159 goals and they get those turnovers, that door opens up 949 00:43:52,199 --> 00:43:53,599 for an upset and a lot of people like Ron 950 00:43:53,639 --> 00:43:55,639 while you're sitting upset, they're higher. It's a ten and 951 00:43:55,679 --> 00:43:58,800 a half point favor spread towards Texas Tech. The national 952 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:01,440 media is not picking Y, They're picking Texas Tech. 953 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:05,119 Speaker 6: So you think they know something that we don't because 954 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:08,360 I know it. I've dude, I've watched. So I've gone 955 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:10,480 back and watched the Texas Tech Arizona State game, and 956 00:44:10,519 --> 00:44:12,239 I've gone back and watched the Texas. 957 00:44:12,039 --> 00:44:13,480 Speaker 5: Tech Utah game. 958 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:16,199 Speaker 6: And in both of those, I see at Texas Tech 959 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:20,519 that is, yes, very good and definitely elite. But I 960 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:24,599 also feel that BYU is better than Arizona State and Utah. 961 00:44:24,679 --> 00:44:27,119 So I believe that BYU is good enough to compete 962 00:44:27,119 --> 00:44:30,360 with Texas Tech. I understand Arizona State and the Utah game, 963 00:44:30,519 --> 00:44:32,639 those were both on the road, so Texas Tech was 964 00:44:32,679 --> 00:44:33,239 not at home. 965 00:44:33,599 --> 00:44:34,559 Speaker 5: But I don't know that. 966 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,239 Speaker 6: I don't know that Texas Tech is a double digit 967 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:38,840 favorite better than BYU. 968 00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:41,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm with you. 969 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,079 Speaker 3: I mean, part of me feels that when you look 970 00:44:44,079 --> 00:44:45,880 at this ten and a half point spread, I feel 971 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,559 like it's favored like the Utah game. If I'm gonna 972 00:44:48,559 --> 00:44:51,119 be honest, where in what way? In what way where 973 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,360 Utah was? I mean, they're gonna they're getting three points 974 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:55,719 automatically for being at home, right right, they get that, 975 00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,039 But then the touchdown. So if you tell you it's 976 00:44:58,039 --> 00:45:00,440 just like Utah was favored by you know, oh what 977 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:02,519 six and a half, I think that's what it was. 978 00:45:02,639 --> 00:45:04,280 So I don't think it was three and a half. 979 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:06,719 But you're basically saying, okay, Utah by a touchdown. I 980 00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,000 feel like it's the same. So they're getting the three 981 00:45:09,039 --> 00:45:11,360 for being at home already and then they're giving them 982 00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:12,840 the touchdown. So I think that's where it comes to. 983 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,320 That's why I think it's a one score game. And look, 984 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,559 I'm gonna be honest, bro, I think if this game 985 00:45:17,679 --> 00:45:21,440 is close in the fourth quarter, if it's five points, 986 00:45:21,519 --> 00:45:23,559 might be too much. But if this game is four 987 00:45:23,639 --> 00:45:27,440 or five points, like if it's twenty four to twenty eight, 988 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:30,960 I think BYU wins this game. I think Texas Tech 989 00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:33,239 can't afford to have this be a close game because 990 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:35,840 BYU just is able to execute when it matters most 991 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,320 down the stretch. I would love to see the numbers 992 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,039 of how mini ballgames Texas Tech wins win is close. 993 00:45:41,119 --> 00:45:44,039 Speaker 4: But they spank people. They rely on turnovers like they 994 00:45:44,079 --> 00:45:45,679 had a scoop and score in the Kansas State game. 995 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:46,239 Speaker 5: That's what they do. 996 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:49,159 Speaker 4: They do that you don't get that against BYU. 997 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:52,159 Speaker 3: If if you're plus twenty points, so you get turnovers 998 00:45:52,199 --> 00:45:53,719 and you don't do that, then you take those twenty 999 00:45:53,760 --> 00:45:56,719 points away. Okay, so you're at what twenty somewhere between 1000 00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:59,199 twenty to twenty three points. I think this BYU offense 1001 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:01,360 can put up twenty four points against this Texas Tech 1002 00:46:01,559 --> 00:46:03,960 Red Raider defense. So that just makes it tough in 1003 00:46:04,039 --> 00:46:06,239 my opinion. So maybe Vegas knows something that we don't. 1004 00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:07,639 But when I'm looking at this ten and a half 1005 00:46:07,639 --> 00:46:09,239 points spread, I really see it. It's like seven and 1006 00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,480 a half or eight and a half, not really ten. 1007 00:46:12,039 --> 00:46:13,960 And hey, if you're gonna have bou be a heavy underdog, 1008 00:46:14,079 --> 00:46:16,719 Chase Roberts is taking no Parker Kingston. It is what 1009 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:19,320 it is like they're p old man like they're they're 1010 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:21,360 pissed off. I'm gonna say it, Yes, that's right. I 1011 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:24,280 apologize to the kids listening. I'm sorry this is supposed 1012 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,719 to be a PG program I've made at PG thirteen, 1013 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:28,719 I apologize to the parents that are listening. But look, 1014 00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:32,360 it is like the BYU is tired of being disrespected. 1015 00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:34,800 They are they're tired of people punching them in their 1016 00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:36,480 mouth and they punch back, and then no one wants 1017 00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:38,840 to admit it, so they're gonna go for a knockout punch. 1018 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:41,280 I feel like they're gonna try to beat this team 1019 00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:43,880 and show it to the national media. Look, we can 1020 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:45,079 get it done, and I think the way you do 1021 00:46:45,199 --> 00:46:47,400 that is forcing turn Like if you can turn Baron 1022 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,039 Morden over early and fast and convert off that if 1023 00:46:50,039 --> 00:46:51,239 you can do what you did in the Baylor game, 1024 00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:53,159 or reminds me of the Baylor game last year. You 1025 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:55,239 get out to a twenty one to seven lead or 1026 00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:57,840 twenty one nothing or twenty one three, that's gonna have 1027 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:01,440 Chris Fowler curb heardstreak Holly Row. Maybe not so much 1028 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,280 Holly Row, but the national what wait a second? And 1029 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,920 then you play the best complimentary football that you can 1030 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:09,880 play that money can find, and that's in Bear Bachmeyer 1031 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:13,159 and Aerontick and Jay Hill and Tholataw Satuala rated the moon. 1032 00:47:13,199 --> 00:47:15,039 He's gonna be back. Right if you look at the 1033 00:47:15,079 --> 00:47:18,239 injury report that was updated. Look, I mean, hey, these guys, 1034 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,039 it sounds like JoJo's gonna be playing. 1035 00:47:20,119 --> 00:47:20,760 Speaker 4: Making the trip. 1036 00:47:21,159 --> 00:47:23,559 Speaker 3: I'm serious, man, Like, I think special teams could ultimately 1037 00:47:23,639 --> 00:47:25,760 be the difference if you get that touchdown. But I 1038 00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:28,599 think byu Brett needs to click on all his avenue. 1039 00:47:28,599 --> 00:47:30,079 So those are my keys to the game. Survive the 1040 00:47:30,159 --> 00:47:33,800 pass rush, do not let them get at your offensive 1041 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:35,920 line and get to Bear Bakmeyer. You gotta turn them 1042 00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:39,719 over early and often. And then field goals. Make Texas 1043 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:41,599 Tech pay for these long drives. They go ten plays 1044 00:47:41,639 --> 00:47:43,960 thirty eight yards and like to kill the time of possession. 1045 00:47:44,199 --> 00:47:46,159 Make them pay for that, making kickfield goals to go 1046 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,079 forward on fourth and get the ball back. And then 1047 00:47:48,119 --> 00:47:51,280 I think special teams. You need a special teams touchdown. 1048 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,119 Those are my keys to the game, Brett. 1049 00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:55,559 Speaker 6: Yeah, the other one I want to throw in here 1050 00:47:55,639 --> 00:47:57,760 with you touched on a little bit, but I want 1051 00:47:57,800 --> 00:47:58,800 to be more specific. 1052 00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:00,599 Speaker 5: You got to put the football. 1053 00:48:00,639 --> 00:48:03,719 Speaker 6: And I'm not saying I'm not talking about Bear Bachmeyer 1054 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:09,079 throwing the football. I'm talking about Texas Tech channeling the 1055 00:48:09,159 --> 00:48:14,400 spirit of one Charles Peanut punch out Tillman Peanut Bears 1056 00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:18,000 this Chicago Bear, the man who literally his whole nickname 1057 00:48:18,159 --> 00:48:19,079 was just about how he. 1058 00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:21,719 Speaker 5: Punched the football out relentlessly. 1059 00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:25,360 Speaker 6: That is Jacob Rodriguez and his Texas Tech defense. 1060 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:26,519 Speaker 5: I believe. 1061 00:48:26,639 --> 00:48:28,800 Speaker 6: Last week during the broadcast, they told a story about 1062 00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:31,840 how they just have a football like on a pedestal 1063 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:34,639 or on a spring or some kind of mechanism around 1064 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:37,280 the facility that they will just punch that It is 1065 00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:40,719 just a mentality that they have all the time. 1066 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:44,440 Speaker 5: So BYU needs to hold on to the football. 1067 00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:48,679 Speaker 6: My buddy Joe Lard, he played football in high school 1068 00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:52,880 in high school in Oklahoma, and his coach would pay 1069 00:48:53,119 --> 00:48:56,639 kids to My friend Joe would carry the football around 1070 00:48:57,039 --> 00:48:59,760 high school because he was a running back, and the 1071 00:49:00,039 --> 00:49:02,119 coach was like a history teach or whatever and would 1072 00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:05,719 pay kids like a couple bucks or whatever to walk 1073 00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:08,119 around the school and just randomly try to punch the 1074 00:49:08,199 --> 00:49:12,039 ball out of Joe Joe's arms. So BYU needs to 1075 00:49:12,639 --> 00:49:15,039 keep their head on a swivel and make sure that 1076 00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:18,119 they take care of this football. Because again, if you 1077 00:49:18,199 --> 00:49:21,679 watch that KSE State game, there were two plays where 1078 00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:24,239 the receiver is bringing the ball into his body and 1079 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,599 it got punched out both times once they determined that 1080 00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:29,679 it wasn't a catch and the other time they determined 1081 00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:32,119 it was catch fumble. And you just don't want to 1082 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:36,039 put the game in the hands of the officials to 1083 00:49:36,159 --> 00:49:38,360 say whether it was a fumble or whether it was 1084 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:40,679 an incomplete pass. So you just got to be really 1085 00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:43,599 careful with this football around this Texas Tech defense. 1086 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:44,519 Speaker 4: I agree, Bret. 1087 00:49:44,559 --> 00:49:45,079 Speaker 5: You know how I am. 1088 00:49:45,159 --> 00:49:46,320 Speaker 4: I'm a fan of UFC. 1089 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:49,239 Speaker 3: Don't let it go to the judges, score scores, card, 1090 00:49:49,519 --> 00:49:50,679 don't let them determine it. 1091 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:53,039 Speaker 4: So you know what you do, no lose change. Maybe 1092 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:54,800 we don't fumble. 1093 00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:56,679 Speaker 3: That's one of the classic sayings that players would say 1094 00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:58,960 in a football locker room. So high and tight, high 1095 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:00,639 and tight. Hey bear, back my, I know you like 1096 00:50:00,679 --> 00:50:02,960 to run with two hands. I've seen that bawl almost 1097 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,480 come out a little bit. Hey bear, please do not 1098 00:50:05,639 --> 00:50:07,960 do that. Hold on to that football. Protect the rock. 1099 00:50:08,159 --> 00:50:12,000 Gotta protect the rock. Ball security is job security. So 1100 00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:16,280 make sure that you keep on having that ball security. 1101 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,239 I mean, look, if they're punching balls around the facility. 1102 00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:21,719 Jacobarriguez is looking for forst fumbl number thirteenth for he's 1103 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,840 looking for the thirteenth career force fumble. He's gonna try 1104 00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:28,039 to get you. Parker Kingston, Chase Roberts, LJ. Martin, all 1105 00:50:28,079 --> 00:50:30,960 of you guys, so be very careful tomorrow with the football. 1106 00:50:31,039 --> 00:50:32,719 You want to make sure that you're definitely a wearing it. 1107 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:35,000 And again, to go back to the sounds, I'm gonna 1108 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:36,760 connect them. Hopefully it's not too much of a tangent. 1109 00:50:37,119 --> 00:50:39,639 The Texas Tech facility that Joy McGrath was talking about, 1110 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:41,840 the video was playing, I was watching it here in 1111 00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:43,000 our Bandowel studios. 1112 00:50:43,119 --> 00:50:44,280 Speaker 4: Oh my goodness. 1113 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,079 Speaker 3: Like they have a screen where you can see the 1114 00:50:46,119 --> 00:50:48,239 game and then they have a field in the mix 1115 00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:49,960 of it. And maybe BAU has this and other big 1116 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:51,960 twelve schools, but I don't know about it yet and 1117 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:53,199 maybe I'm not and maybe I'm just. 1118 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:54,840 Speaker 4: Not aware of it. 1119 00:50:55,199 --> 00:50:57,239 Speaker 3: But they can line up on the field in the 1120 00:50:57,360 --> 00:50:59,679 formation and watch tape and then like replicate it and 1121 00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:01,559 do that, and of course everything can do on their own, 1122 00:51:01,599 --> 00:51:04,800 but it's in like the actual like football facility where 1123 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:07,079 they able to do that, where they have chairs, like 1124 00:51:07,079 --> 00:51:08,719 they're able to go back and do that. They're like, wow, 1125 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,880 they actually have a turf grass where they can go execute, 1126 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:14,639 break it down, start and stop. So look, Texas Tech 1127 00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:17,519 is investing a lot of money into this program, rightfully, so, 1128 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:19,400 but that makes it all better because you go out 1129 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:21,320 there and beat them, you weren't supposed to win this game. 1130 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:25,360 National media picked against you, So tomorrow gonna find out 1131 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:27,679 for sure.
