Speaker 3: Brother. Look, man, I don't know where to start.

43
00:01:40,079 --> 00:01:42,480
Speaker 2: Just I guess I'll start your takeaways and thoughts on

44
00:01:42,799 --> 00:01:44,959
the BYU Texas Tech game from over the weekend.

45
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, so we we actually were out at the game.

46
00:01:49,359 --> 00:01:51,599
We went out and caught some waves in Waco at

47
00:01:51,599 --> 00:01:54,959
the Waypool and then swung six hours across the state

48
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,040
to Lubbock. And I'll tell you what. My brother and

49
00:01:59,079 --> 00:02:00,760
I were decked out in our blue and we were

50
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,680
out to see what the fan base had the dish

51
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:07,640
to us. And surprisingly enough, and I think it had

52
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,159
a lot to do with the GoFundMe h for the

53
00:02:10,199 --> 00:02:14,879
barber of Texas Tech football team, but real gracious fans,

54
00:02:15,199 --> 00:02:18,120
we thought it was hate week and it was not

55
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,639
hate week. We walked through every tailgating piece that morning

56
00:02:22,199 --> 00:02:24,560
trying to just seeing if anybody wanted to have a

57
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,280
chat with us, and you know what nobody did. It

58
00:02:27,319 --> 00:02:31,000
was it was real peaceful. The stadium is beautiful. I

59
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,319
related to a little bit to the Colorado Stadium, how

60
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,080
it just really really cool atmosphere.

61
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,879
Speaker 4: Uh, you know it, Uh getting down to the business

62
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,599
of the game, you know it.

63
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 5: A couple of the things that I don't think people

64
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,120
could really tell on TV was the way that the

65
00:02:50,159 --> 00:02:54,840
weather was affecting the game. So you had if you

66
00:02:54,879 --> 00:02:56,520
looked at the flags at the top of the stadium,

67
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:57,879
they were blowing horizontal.

68
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,479
Speaker 4: You had a heavy, heavy wind blowing.

69
00:03:00,879 --> 00:03:03,759
Speaker 5: So for example, when when Parker Kingston went to take

70
00:03:03,759 --> 00:03:07,240
that punt, the wind at the top of the stadium

71
00:03:07,319 --> 00:03:11,000
was blowing towards him. But because it's a bowl and

72
00:03:11,039 --> 00:03:13,479
you have a big building at the end of that stadium,

73
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,960
as the wind would hit that, it would circulate back

74
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:18,599
through and kind of swirl through the stadium. So from

75
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,280
my perspective and the way that wind was going, you know,

76
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,319
as that ball was coming down, it was going multiple

77
00:03:24,319 --> 00:03:27,919
different directions, very difficult ball to field, and it looked

78
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,240
like last second the wind blew it forward where he

79
00:03:30,319 --> 00:03:31,800
had to reach out to try to get it.

80
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 4: As a punt.

81
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,479
Speaker 5: Returner in that moment, when you reach forward and you're

82
00:03:36,479 --> 00:03:40,159
looking straight ahead at that point, now you're actually seeing

83
00:03:40,199 --> 00:03:42,520
the guys who are coming right at you at the

84
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,520
same time, it makes for a real difficult catch. I

85
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:49,000
think Parker should have made the catch obviously, and that

86
00:03:49,039 --> 00:03:51,919
would have would have put us in at better spot.

87
00:03:51,919 --> 00:03:55,840
But there, man, there was just so many opportunities missed

88
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,560
through the game. I didn't feel like Texas Tech was

89
00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:04,199
stomping on us. I just didn't you as much. Everybody said,

90
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:05,719
we didn't feel like we were in the game.

91
00:04:06,479 --> 00:04:07,479
Speaker 4: I did. I know.

92
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 5: You know, we just heard a lot of people talking

93
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,000
about it that they weren't in the half. We weren't

94
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,399
in at halftime going into the like we were in

95
00:04:16,439 --> 00:04:19,360
the game and and there wasn't even especially when when

96
00:04:19,399 --> 00:04:21,480
when Raider broke up that pass at the end and

97
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,079
of the first half, you really felt like we've.

98
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 4: Got a shot.

99
00:04:25,399 --> 00:04:27,199
Speaker 5: We knowing they had to come out and get a

100
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,319
stop right away as well. But yeah, I mean if

101
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,279
you you pack in four or five different plays in

102
00:04:32,319 --> 00:04:35,360
that game, which would be the punt return, I felt

103
00:04:35,399 --> 00:04:38,319
the shank punt, you know, and as a former punter

104
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,800
in junior college, everyone has one every year that goes

105
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,279
right off the side of the foot and you're just like, gosh,

106
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,279
I hope it's more than twenty yards, you know. And

107
00:04:47,519 --> 00:04:50,120
so he had that, and then you had multiple drops,

108
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,279
you know, Chase on his deep ball.

109
00:04:53,879 --> 00:04:55,639
Speaker 4: You know. The first thing I thought when when he

110
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:56,480
missed that was.

111
00:04:56,439 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 5: Like, big players have to make big plays in big games,

112
00:05:00,079 --> 00:05:03,920
and you know, he just just just missed that one.

113
00:05:04,399 --> 00:05:07,920
The Jojo Phillips across the middle drop. I was happy

114
00:05:07,959 --> 00:05:10,360
that that. Right after that play, Aaron Rodgers gave him

115
00:05:10,519 --> 00:05:12,439
a nice easy catch to get him back in the

116
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:17,079
field of the game, and then the almost pick that

117
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,519
turned into a huge gainer on that ninety two yard

118
00:05:20,639 --> 00:05:24,319
drive with Texas Tech where it looked like I was

119
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,879
sitting with Evans parents in the stands, and you know it,

120
00:05:28,879 --> 00:05:31,600
it looked like from our perspective and we were wrapped

121
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:34,920
in the top corner, but it was right coming right

122
00:05:34,959 --> 00:05:37,920
into his hands, and that wide receiver just made a

123
00:05:37,959 --> 00:05:41,800
play on the ball and it changed a lot.

124
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,439
Speaker 2: Did the wind moved the ball at all? Because a

125
00:05:43,439 --> 00:05:45,800
lot of people said all of the wind blew it

126
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,160
to him. Did that happen or was it just he

127
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:48,879
just made the play.

128
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,399
Speaker 4: I think he just made the play. I have.

129
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 5: I haven't gone Usually I go back after watching a

130
00:05:53,879 --> 00:05:55,639
game in person and go back and watch the game

131
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:57,160
because you miss a lot, you know.

132
00:05:57,759 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 4: And I haven't done that yet, But.

133
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:03,439
Speaker 5: I will say the wind when you have a bowl

134
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,439
stadium like that where there's no exits for the wind

135
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,920
to get out once it gets hits, and then you

136
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,279
have these the big buildings that build up their press

137
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,680
box on one side and then that they're athletic building

138
00:06:14,079 --> 00:06:16,480
on one end zone. As that wind gets in, it

139
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,560
just swirls all through the inside of the field. So

140
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,000
even though you know the wind is say north to

141
00:06:22,079 --> 00:06:25,279
south or whatever direction it's blowing on the field, it's not.

142
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,319
It's all over the place, you know, So it wouldn't

143
00:06:28,319 --> 00:06:31,720
surprise me at that. I feel like, you know, Evan

144
00:06:31,759 --> 00:06:34,519
saw that ball coming straight into his hands and which

145
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,720
just had you know, hands up to make the play.

146
00:06:36,759 --> 00:06:38,800
You see receivers do it all the time where there

147
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:40,560
it's like, here comes the ball and then the dB

148
00:06:40,639 --> 00:06:42,240
makes a play on the ball and picks it and

149
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,160
they're just you know, falling down without without the ball.

150
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,360
And I think that's kind of what happened, because he

151
00:06:47,439 --> 00:06:49,480
was making you know, playing the ball and felt like

152
00:06:49,519 --> 00:06:52,480
you had to pick the guy had an opportunity.

153
00:06:51,879 --> 00:06:55,079
Speaker 4: To break a big, big run after the catch. But

154
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,079
you know, our defense played great.

155
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:02,879
Speaker 5: I feel like personally for being there and that this

156
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,480
is the first time that that a defense hasn't made

157
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:06,800
Bear look like a freshman.

158
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,959
Speaker 4: And now I think they.

159
00:07:10,879 --> 00:07:14,240
Speaker 5: Hit Bear hard that first hit he took when he

160
00:07:14,279 --> 00:07:17,199
should have put his shoulder down and ran the guy over,

161
00:07:17,279 --> 00:07:20,680
but decided to make the oddest leap I've ever seen

162
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:21,360
in football.

163
00:07:22,079 --> 00:07:25,639
Speaker 3: But that don't jump over that guy, Well.

164
00:07:25,439 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 5: You think guy wasn't even going low, you know, and

165
00:07:27,079 --> 00:07:28,680
so he caught him in the air and it was

166
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,759
like a pile driver from about five feet in the air,

167
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,759
straight down with all of his weight on Bear. And

168
00:07:34,959 --> 00:07:37,800
you could tell that hurt. And that was right in

169
00:07:37,839 --> 00:07:40,120
the beginning of the game. But there were three or

170
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,879
four other hits that he took where he laid face

171
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,839
down for a second and then you know how you

172
00:07:44,879 --> 00:07:46,959
know we are in football, you scramble your feet as

173
00:07:46,959 --> 00:07:47,519
fas as you can.

174
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,519
Speaker 4: He was, he was feeling it.

175
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,279
Speaker 5: So a lot of things to fix, a lot of

176
00:07:53,319 --> 00:07:57,040
things to work on. I think, you know, having watched

177
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:01,079
Texas Tech the week before, I saw quarterback running all

178
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,959
over their defense, so I was confident in our ability.

179
00:08:04,079 --> 00:08:06,480
But we some of the things I think Bear was

180
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,600
was struggling. He was he was spending more time in

181
00:08:09,639 --> 00:08:13,000
the pocket than usually he does. Usually he'll look one,

182
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,439
two and then he'll scramble and run. He seemed to

183
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:20,920
be scrambling a little bit more than normal, trying to find.

184
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 4: That extra receiver.

185
00:08:21,639 --> 00:08:25,079
Speaker 5: And from my perspective on a lot of his throats

186
00:08:25,079 --> 00:08:28,120
that seemed like he was his eyes were on his

187
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:33,000
number one target from the snap almost and and then

188
00:08:33,039 --> 00:08:35,600
through to that guy, you know, so made it easy

189
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:39,279
for the defense to make plays on the ball. I

190
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,720
do think that we have we're going to have a

191
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,840
good bounce back week. That the team's confident, and I

192
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,759
think we have still such an opportunity ahead of us.

193
00:08:50,879 --> 00:08:55,320
There's there's nothing we can't achieve that we couldn't have

194
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,039
achieved last week, you know.

195
00:08:57,519 --> 00:08:59,519
Speaker 4: And so I look forward to this game TCUs.

196
00:08:59,799 --> 00:09:03,799
Speaker 5: We got to make a statement and we've we've got

197
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:06,720
to be ready to play. TCU is coming into a

198
00:09:06,759 --> 00:09:09,360
cold environment and it's a really late game for them.

199
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:14,159
It's absolute one am game for those guys, and and

200
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,240
that's that should be in our favor, and playing at

201
00:09:17,279 --> 00:09:18,440
home will be in our favor.

202
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 4: But you know, we we It's kind of funny.

203
00:09:20,879 --> 00:09:22,159
Speaker 5: We talked to a couple of fans as we were

204
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,720
leaving and and you know, a couple of trying to

205
00:09:24,759 --> 00:09:26,759
hackle a little bit, and I the only thing I

206
00:09:26,799 --> 00:09:27,759
said was, you know what.

207
00:09:27,799 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 4: Our loss is to you? Your loss is to a

208
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,559
su so facts not a whole lot.

209
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,679
Speaker 5: They could say back to that one, you know, but uh,

210
00:09:36,519 --> 00:09:38,600
but let's see how it all plays out. I'm excited

211
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,879
to see where it goes and it was definitely.

212
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 4: A lot of fun. I ate a lot of a

213
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,720
lot of brisket while we were out there, and uh

214
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,679
brisk a lot of driving across the state of Texas too.

215
00:09:48,799 --> 00:09:50,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, you were moving probably mileedge that you put on

216
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,399
those those wheels, got those caf.

217
00:09:52,879 --> 00:09:54,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, we got a brand well, we got a brand

218
00:09:54,879 --> 00:09:55,519
new rental car.

219
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:59,399
Speaker 5: We took that thing from from Dallas to Waco, from

220
00:09:59,399 --> 00:10:01,679
Waco to Lebick and then Lebick back to Dallas.

221
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:02,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, you guys, Yeah we.

222
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:04,480
Speaker 4: Got we got a little bit of the whole state.

223
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely got a little bit of the whole state.

224
00:10:06,159 --> 00:10:07,480
Love that you were down there in Texas. We got

225
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,639
Jared lets a former b y UI receiver on the line. Here,

226
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,480
last couple of things Jared, before they let you go,

227
00:10:14,039 --> 00:10:16,399
what do you feel like offensively?

228
00:10:16,399 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 3: Should they have gone up Temple the whole game?

229
00:10:17,879 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: Because they go up tempo, they score that touchdown, and

230
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,120
then I started thinking, well, maybe you should have ditched

231
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,799
the game plan or just done that from jump and

232
00:10:24,879 --> 00:10:27,679
just put Texas Tech in that type of you know,

233
00:10:28,159 --> 00:10:31,279
they can't rest, they can't substitute. You go just up

234
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,519
tempo fast. You know exactly what you're doing two minute

235
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,639
drill the whole time. Should they have done more of

236
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:37,039
that in the game, because when they did that, they

237
00:10:37,039 --> 00:10:38,679
were able to move the ball actually pretty well.

238
00:10:39,639 --> 00:10:42,519
Speaker 5: Maybe, I mean, maybe that would be something I know

239
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:46,240
that that being that Bears refreshman at giving him his

240
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,200
time to think and giving a Rod a little bit

241
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,600
more time to make play calls with him.

242
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 4: I think it's kind of been why we've huddled so much.

243
00:10:55,399 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 5: Also, that drive, I feel like they were they weren't

244
00:10:58,279 --> 00:11:00,919
playing the same defense that they are playing us. They

245
00:11:00,919 --> 00:11:03,279
weren't definitely not playing as aggressive, and they were kind

246
00:11:03,279 --> 00:11:04,679
of sitting back a little bit more.

247
00:11:05,279 --> 00:11:07,679
Speaker 4: Not that they wanted us to score by any means.

248
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:08,320
I'm sure they.

249
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 5: Wanted to shut out, but it felt like they were

250
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,559
playing often and just not quite as aggressive at that point.

251
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, that makes sense. Okay, you mentioned tc Let's move

252
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,320
it on. So now the matchup here. Look this, they

253
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,440
got a good run defense, Jared, but TCU they can

254
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,799
be had in there. I've seen Colorado was able to

255
00:11:25,799 --> 00:11:27,600
throw on There's a lot of teams that can throw.

256
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,159
Could you see a three hundred plus your performance through

257
00:11:31,159 --> 00:11:33,120
the air from Bear. Look you let you just said

258
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:35,000
it they're gonna make a statement. I think they might

259
00:11:35,039 --> 00:11:37,840
beat TCU by two three scores. I don't want to

260
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,600
get hyperbolic, but I think they're gonna make a statement

261
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:41,840
to be angry on Saturday night.

262
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,919
Speaker 5: Well, I agree, and I think we're at the point

263
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:46,960
in the and I hear a lot of people talking

264
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,399
about it where we need some statement wins. It's no

265
00:11:50,799 --> 00:11:53,759
more twenty four to twenty seven wins. We need to

266
00:11:53,759 --> 00:11:56,399
get up and show that we can put people away.

267
00:11:57,279 --> 00:12:00,600
And that's just the state of NCAA football and playoffs

268
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,840
and and that you got twelve guys making decisions for

269
00:12:03,279 --> 00:12:06,000
I believe it's twelve for for all the teams uh

270
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:10,480
on on the committee, and so it's important now to

271
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,399
to kind of step in and play hard to CC

272
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,559
is not a team we can just walk over. You know,

273
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,240
they got a great passing offense. They there's there's a

274
00:12:19,279 --> 00:12:23,200
lot there for us to play. And I feel like

275
00:12:23,919 --> 00:12:27,000
although there weren't any major injuries coming out of the

276
00:12:27,039 --> 00:12:29,759
Texas Tech game, which is great, there's there's a lot

277
00:12:29,799 --> 00:12:32,200
of real sore guys because that was a hard hitting,

278
00:12:33,039 --> 00:12:38,200
very physical football team that we oh yeah no, and

279
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,000
and you know they they paid a pretty penny for it.

280
00:12:41,879 --> 00:12:44,480
So uh but but you know, looking forward to this week,

281
00:12:44,519 --> 00:12:47,360
it's gonna be a lot of fun. I expect this

282
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,759
to come out. And you know, the big thing for

283
00:12:49,799 --> 00:12:52,320
me was, you know, everything in these games momentum.

284
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,919
Speaker 4: You know, where where where is our momentum?

285
00:12:54,919 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 5: And in Texas Tech game, I don't think we had

286
00:12:59,799 --> 00:13:04,279
a period where where we, as as the fans and

287
00:13:04,279 --> 00:13:08,000
and you know, sitting with all the players families, felt

288
00:13:08,039 --> 00:13:11,639
like we had momentum other than the couple of stops

289
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,399
where we really shut them down, but then the offense

290
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,480
never got going, you know. So it was like the

291
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,440
beginning of momentum and then it shifted straight back. And

292
00:13:20,519 --> 00:13:23,519
so if we need to capture the momentum in the

293
00:13:23,519 --> 00:13:26,840
beginning of this game with TCU and just drive straight

294
00:13:26,879 --> 00:13:29,720
through it, that that's going to make a big difference.

295
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:34,279
If we start giving momentum to TCU or even any

296
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,840
of our future opponents, that that's where we start to

297
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,080
get in a really bad spot. Our offense needs the

298
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,639
momentum from the defense, and then we've got to capitalize

299
00:13:43,639 --> 00:13:46,799
when our defense makes those stops and stands. We've we've

300
00:13:46,799 --> 00:13:48,600
got to come out on top and get points on

301
00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:48,960
the board.

302
00:13:49,799 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely need the points on the board. You think

303
00:13:51,519 --> 00:13:54,159
of what would happen if Evan Johnson gets that picker.

304
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:55,600
I know, the game is might have been out of hand.

305
00:13:55,639 --> 00:13:57,039
But if Trey gets down when there's just a couple

306
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:01,799
of moments where don't ye exactly you don't.

307
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 5: You don't know what one of those plays different. And

308
00:14:04,759 --> 00:14:06,919
even if Parker just would have fielded that that.

309
00:14:07,039 --> 00:14:10,399
Speaker 3: Punt and it doesn't turn me an.

310
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 5: Incredible stop you know, on that on their first drive,

311
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,879
and the crowd was a little bit iffy at that point,

312
00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,639
you know, because we just shut down their offense and

313
00:14:20,799 --> 00:14:23,240
had he just made and fielded that ball, and we

314
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,080
got a few plays rolling with the with the offense,

315
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,720
and it just felt like we were always in a

316
00:14:29,679 --> 00:14:30,559
what can we do?

317
00:14:30,759 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 4: What? What is even available for us? On offense?

318
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,039
Speaker 5: You know, a rod he gets into a rhythm as

319
00:14:38,039 --> 00:14:39,879
he starts and drives. When we have three and out,

320
00:14:39,919 --> 00:14:43,360
three and out, it doesn't allow him to get into

321
00:14:43,399 --> 00:14:47,320
that rhythm and play calling he is a very I

322
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:51,000
don't know the right term, rhythmatic play color you know.

323
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 3: Rhythmatic. Yeah, well I make words all that the time, right,

324
00:14:55,039 --> 00:14:55,519
that's a word.

325
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, so, but you know what I mean, Like

326
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,320
he as he starts making calls and the plays and

327
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,879
the drive is longer, it just seems like that play

328
00:15:04,919 --> 00:15:07,399
fed off the next play to the next play, and.

329
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 4: He's on a roll.

330
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,039
Speaker 5: And when he's on a roll, it's I feel like

331
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,559
the offense is not is really unstoppable.

332
00:15:13,639 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 4: So we just never had those opportunities.

333
00:15:15,879 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 5: I we we as as a fan base in the crowd,

334
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:22,399
it was, man, we just felt so uneventful and we

335
00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:24,240
couldn't get excited, you know.

336
00:15:24,399 --> 00:15:26,879
Speaker 4: We we we needed a drive to.

337
00:15:26,799 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 5: Get excited about him or a play or two, and

338
00:15:29,639 --> 00:15:31,279
we just couldn't get it on offense.

339
00:15:31,879 --> 00:15:33,759
Speaker 4: And uh but man, every team had.

340
00:15:33,759 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 5: You look at there's what three undefeated teams left in

341
00:15:36,759 --> 00:15:41,559
the country right on. Almost everybody has taken a loss

342
00:15:41,559 --> 00:15:45,600
this year, and some of them worse than others. Our

343
00:15:45,679 --> 00:15:48,759
loss is to a top ten team, right Our.

344
00:15:48,679 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 4: Loss is a good loss. Yeah, I mean, I hate

345
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:53,840
that term, to be honest, with a good lass.

346
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:55,799
Speaker 3: You told me that every single time.

347
00:15:55,799 --> 00:15:56,159
Speaker 4: I said.

348
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 5: But but in the end, though we didn't lose to

349
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:05,360
an unraked team with a losing record, we lost to

350
00:16:05,399 --> 00:16:08,039
a top ten team. So it will be interesting to

351
00:16:08,039 --> 00:16:11,799
see where they go tonight with the rankings, we'll see

352
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:15,360
where the respect level lies. You know, we we lost

353
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:18,120
to a very good Texas Tech team, who I hope

354
00:16:18,159 --> 00:16:22,360
we get another chance at in the Big twelve championship game.

355
00:16:22,559 --> 00:16:24,039
Speaker 3: You take care of business, you definitely will.

356
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,639
Speaker 2: Jared, before we let you go, tell us about Utah

359
