00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 6: Why are you poking a bear this morning?

13
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 4: A trolley moon?

14
00:00:47,039 --> 00:00:49,439
Speaker 6: Yeah.

15
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 4: I don't know why he does that.

16
00:00:52,359 --> 00:00:57,399
Speaker 5: Because I'm a troll. It's a bad person. Yelled at

17
00:00:57,399 --> 00:00:59,520
Taylor to shut up in the middle of his doing

18
00:00:59,520 --> 00:00:59,920
his job.

19
00:01:01,159 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 4: Is that your is not your computer? I don't know.

20
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:07,159
Speaker 7: I just from up there.

21
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,799
Speaker 4: I just muted my computer. Probably weird.

22
00:01:10,879 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 5: I don't know.

23
00:01:12,439 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 4: But no, I don't like no Chase Daniel. Matt knows him.

24
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 8: I'm just you know, I played got four career starts

25
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,519
and made a lot of money, and I played like

26
00:01:23,519 --> 00:01:26,079
an eighty something games and made a fraction.

27
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah. Because he was boys with the quarterback,

28
00:01:30,439 --> 00:01:32,400
I was boys with the quarterbacks too. Didn't help me.

29
00:01:33,879 --> 00:01:39,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, the backup quarterback is such a fascinating, fascinating like

30
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:41,920
profession to do a study on.

31
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 4: And they're all we're in there. I know, why do

32
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,079
they all up there and their team? They played for

33
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,760
hoodies on. I didn't. I did play a while. I

34
00:01:50,799 --> 00:01:54,879
know his brother, did I have such I have? I

35
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:56,879
have no idea. I know Shady played Shout out with

36
00:01:56,879 --> 00:01:58,640
Sean McCoy. Shout out to him forever.

37
00:01:59,159 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 7: That's the day I almost sent to you guys, but

38
00:02:02,239 --> 00:02:04,239
I didn't want to trigger Jake because it was about

39
00:02:04,319 --> 00:02:08,240
Chase Daniel. He earned forty one million dollars in his career.

40
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,240
It's two hundred and fifty thousand dollars per pass attempt,

41
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,520
per attempt, like they didn't even have to be completed.

42
00:02:17,439 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, Like, Okay, Kirk Cousin's making four hundred million

43
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,039
is kind of insane. But at least Chase Daniel making

44
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,240
forty I know that's what I'm saying. But at least,

45
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,199
like he played, he bet on himself, He proved to

46
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,599
be good enough where people had to give him that money.

47
00:02:32,039 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 4: People just gave Chase them.

48
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 7: What was the I think I think it was Chad

49
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,879
Hyo played three years.

50
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 4: Chad Hinny was my draft class. He played a long time.

51
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,319
Speaker 7: He was a starter for a long time Miami for

52
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,000
a number of years. Well, no, it was. It was

53
00:02:47,039 --> 00:02:49,879
a few years ago though. The Chiefs were like looking

54
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,960
for a quarterback to back up Mahomes because Hinney's contract

55
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,759
was up, and Mahomes went to the front office. He goes, no,

56
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,800
you got to bring Chad back. Yeah, he's like, Chad's

57
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,520
my guy. He helps me prepare. Like, you have to

58
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,240
bring him back. I mean you used to stick on

59
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:02,199
like that like it happened.

60
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 4: No, that's why. Sure, that's every quarterback out there guy

61
00:03:04,599 --> 00:03:06,560
for the most part. That's why. That's why.

62
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 5: That's why, like with Jake was talking out, what I'm

63
00:03:09,439 --> 00:03:11,560
saying is like, that's why it's such a fascinating thing

64
00:03:11,599 --> 00:03:16,039
to study, because it's not just about being like, Okay,

65
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,280
you're you know, you're you're you're viable when you play.

66
00:03:18,479 --> 00:03:24,520
It's about how do you mesh with the starter, Like

67
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,919
that's why Aaron Murray can never catch Onny keep getting

68
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,599
put on teams with Chase Daniel, and Chase was the

69
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,039
ultimate backup where he'd have he'd have all the like

70
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,240
the film cut up, ready to go. He basically the

71
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,560
coffee waiting on the starter in the morning, like just

72
00:03:38,439 --> 00:03:41,319
doing doing all the dirty work to stay employed.

73
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 8: The one thing for him that he didn't have that

74
00:03:43,759 --> 00:03:46,639
some of the others had, like Matt. Matt had a

75
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,039
five hundred yard game in the NFL. So when he

76
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,719
got a chance to play, like it was like shine uh.

77
00:03:51,919 --> 00:03:54,439
Billy Bullock, who is our quarterback in San Diego, the backup,

78
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,879
Like Billy for a long time had the NFL record

79
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,400
for most passing yards in the game he was with Tennessee. Yeah,

80
00:04:00,439 --> 00:04:03,240
so like that was. And then Billy had to come

81
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,400
into a Divisional round game on the road against the

82
00:04:05,439 --> 00:04:09,120
Colts when Philip towards a cl and Billy won that game.

83
00:04:09,199 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 4: So like that got that got Billy like, well, it's

84
00:04:12,199 --> 00:04:12,719
like years.

85
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,159
Speaker 5: It's like Chat, It's like Chad, like like Olviums. I

86
00:04:15,199 --> 00:04:17,519
remember Chad Hinny won that playoff game. Yeah, when was that.

87
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:18,519
Speaker 4: Two years ago? Yeah?

88
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:21,199
Speaker 8: And Chad a little bit different because when he started

89
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,560
because he was a long time starter.

90
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,439
Speaker 7: But you talking about with the when they played the Browns, right, yeah, yeah,

91
00:04:26,439 --> 00:04:27,680
the hitting games, So that was.

92
00:04:29,519 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 4: It resulted in a Super Bowl tho. Yeah, yeah, because.

93
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:35,439
Speaker 5: Maybe it had to be three four years ago there.

94
00:04:39,759 --> 00:04:41,560
Did y'all see the way too early? Heisman on for

95
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:42,319

so twenty five Heisman nods from bed online.

119
00:05:52,639 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 5: Uh arch Manning leading the way at plus six hundred,

120
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:03,079
Garrett nussmyernumber two at plus seven hundred, John Mattier from

121
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:07,839
OU plus eight hundred, Drew Aller plus nine hundred, Nico

122
00:06:07,879 --> 00:06:11,240
Iamalaiava at plus one thousand, Kate Klebnick plus eleven hundred,

123
00:06:12,439 --> 00:06:16,399
Kevin J. TMESSI Mute plus twelve hundred, Lenora Sellers plus

124
00:06:16,439 --> 00:06:22,319
twelve hundred, DJ Lagway plus four team. I gotta say so,

125
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:27,720
first off shows you how good the the the market

126
00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:31,000
thing scared us Meyer will be next year. Those odds

127
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,839
probably getting a little bump with the wide receiver editions

128
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,360
aving gimsbow line editions probably bumping a little bit further.

129
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,800
I'm gonna say though, Jake, Now maybe this is a

130
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,199
bit prisoner to the moment, But in terms of value plays,

131
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,480
I like the bottom two on the list and Lagway

132
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:52,120
and sellers like sellers a lot, yeah, especially sellers, especially.

133
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,439
Speaker 4: Sell Yeah, Lagway, I think might be a little too

134
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:55,240
early for Lagway.

135
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:56,839
Speaker 8: Still Yeah, I think he'll take a step and I

136
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,000
think he'll he'll be a part of the conversation. But

137
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,759
for Sellers, he's there. I think he's already in that conversation.

138
00:07:03,439 --> 00:07:06,079
He's nobody that at the end of the year was

139
00:07:06,079 --> 00:07:08,360
was thriving. And you know, if you'd have got that

140
00:07:08,399 --> 00:07:10,279
guy in a college football playoff, who knows where they

141
00:07:10,319 --> 00:07:14,600
could have gone. But we will have some moments. But

142
00:07:14,639 --> 00:07:17,240
I think Sellers might actually be like a true front

143
00:07:17,279 --> 00:07:19,839
runner for me. Yeah, like Arch Manning, I said, Man,

144
00:07:19,879 --> 00:07:22,399
I gotta see that. I mean, the talent's there, he's

145
00:07:22,399 --> 00:07:25,279
had spurts. I gotta see him. Hey, this is his team.

146
00:07:25,399 --> 00:07:27,079
Everybody did this.

147
00:07:27,079 --> 00:07:29,279
Speaker 4: Year they didn't. I guess he didn't start like these

148
00:07:29,319 --> 00:07:30,120
other guys. That that's fair.

149
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 8: I think now that if a team goes in like, hey,

150
00:07:33,759 --> 00:07:36,480
Arch is the guy we're preparing for Arch, let's see

151
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,759
how he handles that that good bad are different, Like,

152
00:07:38,879 --> 00:07:40,360
you gotta see how he handles that. Like the rest

153
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:44,639
of the guys on that list, I've seen. Nico's a

154
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:45,519
little too high for me.

155
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I mean Nico, No, I mean Nico's been

156
00:07:50,639 --> 00:07:53,959
Actually I found a I found a list of let

157
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,480
me let me look it up on a Bill Connolly

158
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,800
had a really fun breakdown of all the games and

159
00:07:58,839 --> 00:08:01,639
like kind of interesting fact. Another thing, and I found

160
00:08:01,639 --> 00:08:04,439
a list of the qbrs of all the of all

161
00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:08,240
the quarterbacks in the playoffs, and not a good look

162
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,279
for Nico. He is by far the least good quarterback

163
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,560
in this Uh.

164
00:08:14,519 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 4: This is not a quarterback playoff. No, this is a

165
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,279
running actually true, actually true.

166
00:08:20,639 --> 00:08:24,439
Speaker 8: This is a running back playoff, which Flynn, I hope

167
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:25,519
you're still listening, Bud.

168
00:08:25,839 --> 00:08:28,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, he texted us. The segment blows because Chase Daniel,

169
00:08:28,439 --> 00:08:34,120
we're taking it back back to the old early nineties. EMMITTT.

170
00:08:34,159 --> 00:08:39,879
Speaker 8: Smith, the Thurman Thomas's Oh yeah, yeah, running backs are king.

171
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 4: Oh you're you're just okay, you're saying, like, screw quarterbacks. Yeah, yeah,

172
00:08:44,799 --> 00:08:48,000
I agree, You've already made enough. I agree.

173
00:08:48,759 --> 00:08:52,399
Speaker 5: I mean, honestly, I had to go to Hr about

174
00:08:52,399 --> 00:08:55,480
Matt because he kept touching my balls at practice every day.

175
00:08:55,679 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 4: Wa Scona. No, Flynn, he just all he wouldn't say.

176
00:09:00,159 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 5: I get there as a freshman, I show up at

177
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,200
seven on seven, next thing, you know, hand right up

178
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:04,559

179
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 4: I'm like, whoa broke? I don't even know you what

180
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:14,879
you doing? You damn boy? Snap me the ball? Yes,

181
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:16,960
I have to you know he's the quarterback.

182
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 6: Um, we didn't play his cameo video yesterday. We forgot

183
00:09:23,279 --> 00:09:23,679
about it.

184
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 4: Should we play it?

185
00:09:25,519 --> 00:09:27,399
Speaker 6: It's pretty funny?

186
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, can we load that up? Have that ready to go?

187
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:39,240
Happy one hundred birthday? We know that not real money. Literally,

188
00:09:40,159 --> 00:09:41,720
y'all want to know something interesting?

189
00:09:42,159 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 5: So everybody crabs on pins Safe for being awful in

190
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:48,159
top five games, right, and I can't remember the exact

191
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:53,600
window here, maybe since twenty sixteen, but James Frangly, he's

192
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,399
one in fourteen against top five teams.

193
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:57,879
Speaker 4: But how about this?

194
00:09:59,519 --> 00:10:04,799
Speaker 5: U notre names two and seven, Arizona States one and three,

195
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,960
Texas is one in eight, Tennessee's one and fifteen. Indiana

196
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,200
is oz for sixteen. Like they're not like I guess

197
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:15,759
I'm just saying the Penn State is not exactly out

198
00:10:15,759 --> 00:10:18,080
on their own and and and and not like as

199
00:10:18,159 --> 00:10:19,679
much as we want to paint James Tringers being that

200
00:10:19,799 --> 00:10:21,879
not winning these big games.

201
00:10:22,799 --> 00:10:23,360

Speaker 4: Already struggle on wishing.

206
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,639
Speaker 6: Some much literally told exactly one.

Speaker 4: Fill the ball.

208
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,279
Speaker 6: I told him exactly what to say two seconds before that.

209
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,879
Speaker 4: Beat the ball hard. Uh.

210
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 5: I I am excited to watch college football and TNT.

211
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,480
I just really want Shack, Chuck and Kenny there.

212
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:08,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, Chuck knows college football.

213
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 5: There's a guy that does incredible impressions of all of them,

214
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:17,440
that has been doing UH like them covering serious UH

215
00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:20,879

Vietnam War one, and I'll send them to you because

217
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:31,279
it might be worth playing on the show. It's no, no, no, no, no, yeah, yeah,

218
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:32,799
aarry's a good impression.

219
00:11:32,879 --> 00:11:36,960
Speaker 4: It's but no, it's it's been. I don't know, it's been.

220
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:42,600
It's been for for uh for forever. Now for what

221
00:11:42,639 --> 00:11:46,440

00:12:03,799 --> 00:12:05,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm good back. I'm not leaving for the whole show.

230
00:12:06,039 --> 00:12:09,360
I'll be back a little bit after night. All right, guys,

231
00:12:09,879 --> 00:12:10,919
Merry Christmas, I'll be back.

232
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 7: You don't want to go to break versusly break.

233
00:12:18,279 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 4: As physically possible.

234
00:12:21,759 --> 00:12:24,799
Speaker 7: Off the bench, all right.

235
00:12:24,879 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 4: Go to trash rangers dot com.

236
00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:29,159
Speaker 8: Trash rangers dot Com is the website and one of

237
00:12:29,159 --> 00:12:31,720
the things I always love during the holiday season because

238
00:12:32,399 --> 00:12:34,480
in the holiday you have more trash, but the trash

239
00:12:34,639 --> 00:12:37,480
typically doesn't get picked up, right, just take the week off.

240
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,639
If you follow one of those holidays and you don't

241
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,600
get picked up and so it piles up. That is

242
00:12:41,639 --> 00:12:44,600
not the case with trash Rangers. You go to the

243
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,360
website again, trash rangers dot com, and it has the

244
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:51,279
Christmas trash collection schedule. So if you're normally a Wednesday

245
00:12:51,399 --> 00:12:54,279
or Thursday, if you're normally Thursday or Friday, Friday, Saturday,

246
00:12:54,519 --> 00:12:56,519
and they'll tell you exactly when they're going to pick

247
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,519
up your trash. And if you have questions concerns, you

248

255
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:19,279
choose from. You tell them what you're looking for and

256
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,200
they're going to make sure that you have the right

257
00:13:21,279 --> 00:13:24,200
one at your project. Go to the website trash rangers

259
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 2: Welcome back to the best morning sports show around sorta

260
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,519
it's Off the Bench with Hester and t Bob all.

261
00:13:47,519 --> 00:13:50,279
Speaker 4: Right, welcome back in OTB one O four to five ESPN.

262
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:50,960
Ben Rouge.

263
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 8: Hunt came down here to defend his terrible take and

264
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,200
it was still as bad as ever. Says he doesn't

265
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,960
care that Arizona State had four ranked wins. I'm rooting

266
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,679
for Arizona State in Boise State just so I can

267
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,919
come here and laugh at Hunt. Just point my finger

268
00:14:07,799 --> 00:14:08,559
and laugh at Hunt.

269
00:14:08,639 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 7: It's not just Hunt. I mean we were talking about yesterday.

270
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,600
I don't remember who it was. In the chat was

271
00:14:12,639 --> 00:14:15,399
like everybody goes to bat for Ashton Jeant and he

272
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,919
only played one group of five school. It was Oregon.

273
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,000
It was a three point game and he also had

274
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,200
two hundred yards and three touchdowns. Like what are we doing.

275
00:14:22,399 --> 00:14:24,159
You can't say, oh, well, he hasn't done this. The

276
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,039
one sample size we do he was awesome.

277
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 4: Yeah again, I said it earlier in the year.

278
00:14:28,759 --> 00:14:31,639
Speaker 8: I will sit down, I will watch tape with anybody

279
00:14:31,679 --> 00:14:34,600
that wants to watch it. Ashton Genty's doing things that

280
00:14:34,639 --> 00:14:37,559
nobody else could do. I don't care if you don't

281
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,440
like who he's playing. He did it against the best

282
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,039
competition they've played. He's done it against everyone. That's how

283
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:46,759
you knew his name coming in to this season. Indiana

284
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,039
kind of falls into this category two, which is wild

285
00:14:49,039 --> 00:14:51,000
because they do play in the Big Ten. So they

286
00:14:51,039 --> 00:14:52,639
play in one of the two what a lot of

287
00:14:52,639 --> 00:14:55,360
people call the Mega conferences, the super conferences, whatever you

288
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,720
want to call them. Well, Indiana plays in one of

289
00:14:57,759 --> 00:15:00,320
those leagues. But because of the way scheduling and kind

290
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,919
of fell upon them, they didn't play Penn State, they

291
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,480
didn't play Oregon, and so they kind of fall into

292
00:15:06,559 --> 00:15:10,000
this conversation. So if they beat Notre Dame tonight, I

293
00:15:10,039 --> 00:15:14,519
mean that feels like even a little bit of you know,

294
00:15:14,639 --> 00:15:17,720
kind of what we're talking about the Alabama some of

295
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:19,879
the teams that missed out, Like if Indiana wins, that

296
00:15:19,879 --> 00:15:21,799
feels like they'll get one over on some of that

297
00:15:21,879 --> 00:15:23,600
crowd even though they're in the Big ten, Right.

298
00:15:24,159 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, I would think so. And like to your point,

299
00:15:27,279 --> 00:15:29,559
it's a little unfair to Indiana, right, Like it's it's

300
00:15:29,559 --> 00:15:31,039
not your fault with the schedule. Like you could say

301
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:34,000
the same thing about Texas. Who did Texas play in

302
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,120
the SEC? It's very similar to that. But you know,

303
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,559
I was we were talking about James Franklin last segment.

304
00:15:39,759 --> 00:15:41,919
I was thinking about it this morning. People are not

305
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,080
gonna say because like, what do you what do you

306
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,039
always hear about James Franklin. Okay, well, they can't win

307
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:50,360
big games. Do you consider a win over a SMU

308
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,000
a big game? I do, A lot of people aren't.

309
00:15:53,159 --> 00:15:55,679
And then the winner of that plays Boise State. There's

310
00:15:55,679 --> 00:15:57,840
a chance that James Franklin wins two games in the

311
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:02,159
College Football Playoff and accomplishes nothing because of it in

312
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:03,799
the eyes of a lot of people in the national media,

313
00:16:03,799 --> 00:16:05,639
because they're gonna be like, Okay, great, you beat SMU

314
00:16:05,639 --> 00:16:07,120
and Boise State. There's aren't big games.

315
00:16:07,919 --> 00:16:11,279
Speaker 8: Yeah, unfortunately for him. Yes, which coach do we think

316
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,799
though has the most pressure? It's easy to say the

317
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:19,480
answer that we're probably all thinking and right, which is

318
00:16:19,519 --> 00:16:22,039
wild because he probably has the best record of anybody,

319
00:16:22,879 --> 00:16:25,879
even going against Kirby's record. Now Kirby's got the national championships.

320
00:16:25,879 --> 00:16:29,360
I'm just talking about just overall record. If it's not

321
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,799
Ryan Day, though, who is it? Is it James Franklin?

322
00:16:33,399 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 7: It might be James Franklin. Well, I gotta tell you,

323
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,480
I know that he's he's won it, and I go

324
00:16:40,559 --> 00:16:42,600
to bat for him a lot. I think Dabo's got

325
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,360
a little bit of pressure on Himdabo is bet on

326
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,919
himself during this nil thing and transfer.

327
00:16:46,679 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 8: And they actually got to transfer in their first ever

328
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,200
defensive guy out of the portal, first ever.

329
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 4: You heard that, right.

330
00:16:52,559 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 8: I can't decide if I'm thinking if I think Dabo's

331
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,960
playing with house money or if he's got like the

332
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,279
most pressure, Like it's odd, but I can't because he

333
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:02,919
wasn't supposed to be here.

334
00:17:03,399 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 4: After they lost to South Carolina, that was it. It

335
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:06,799
was over.

336
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 8: He basically said so himself. Well, then Fran Brown and

337
00:17:09,759 --> 00:17:13,160
Syracuse beat Miami. They get an opportunity, they go out

338
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,519
against SMU, they hold on at the very end, they

339
00:17:15,559 --> 00:17:18,319
kick the fifty six yarder. We all know that, So

340
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:21,759
in my mind, he is playing with a little bit

341
00:17:21,759 --> 00:17:24,960
of house money. But to Clemson fans, I wonder where

342
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,680
they're at because they are a program that expects championships,

343
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:31,440
because he brought them championships, and because of what you

344
00:17:31,559 --> 00:17:34,359
just said, Sata, they haven't done a deep dive into

345
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,799
the transfer portal, literally getting their first defensive guy ever

346
00:17:38,079 --> 00:17:39,359
out of the transfer portal.

347
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,319
Speaker 4: They don't do a deep dive. They don't spend a

348
00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,119
lot of money in the nil space.

349
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:49,319
Speaker 8: Everyone else is like, if he doesn't win, are those

350
00:17:49,319 --> 00:17:51,519
fans going to be like, see, this is the ceiling.

351
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:52,519
Speaker 4: Now, this is.

352
00:17:52,519 --> 00:17:55,039
Speaker 8: The best that we can do is back door our

353
00:17:55,079 --> 00:17:57,640
way into the playoffs and not play for championships.

354
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 7: They also like Clemson's an interest study. If you could

355
00:18:01,519 --> 00:18:03,160
look at their season, could you can say, okay, well

356
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:06,599
they have three losses. They really only have one bad loss.

357
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,480
And I mean Louisville's not a terrible loss. I mean

358
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,440
it was at home, but you lose to Georgia and

359
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,400
the final score is awful. Thirty four to three is terrible.

360
00:18:15,599 --> 00:18:17,680
In Week one, I get it. This is a six

361
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,279
to nothing game. At halftime, it was six to nothing.

362
00:18:20,279 --> 00:18:22,039
You were there you were within grasp, but you played

363
00:18:22,039 --> 00:18:24,039
an awful half of football. It's one of the worst

364
00:18:24,079 --> 00:18:26,039
half of footballs I've seen all year. So you play

365
00:18:26,039 --> 00:18:28,680
an awful half of football against Georgia, you lose to

366
00:18:28,759 --> 00:18:31,400
a red hot South Carolina team by three points, a

367
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,359
team that nobody wanted to face at the end of

368
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,319
the year, and then you could argue they controlled that

369
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,599
game against SMU. I mean SMU had to come back

370
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,559
and tie it in order for Clemson to go. Mean,

371
00:18:40,599 --> 00:18:42,839
Clemson was up seventeen points in that game at one point.

372
00:18:42,839 --> 00:18:44,960
So it's like, what Clemson are we going to get?

373
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:48,599
At times they've looked awesome, they have the bad losses,

374
00:18:48,599 --> 00:18:50,880
but I mean those losses really aren't that bad.

375
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,079
Speaker 4: I've been a bad football team. I think.

376
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,039
Speaker 8: Obviously the Georgia game and the way that second half

377
00:18:57,039 --> 00:18:59,079
played out, it really set the tone for what the

378
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:02,880
expectation would our thought process was going to be for Clemson.

379
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,279
Speaker 4: What about Steve sarkisian Elandra So I.

380
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:10,799
Speaker 10: Actually I was actually gonna say, like, I don't think

381
00:19:10,839 --> 00:19:13,079
sark has I don't think his seat.

382
00:19:12,839 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 6: Is hot, it's warm.

383
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,799
Speaker 10: I don't think it's like but he he definitely has

384
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,240
a little bit of pressure coming off of like last year,

385
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,720
and like y'all mentioned earlier, he did have an easy

386
00:19:23,759 --> 00:19:26,079
schedule coming into the SEC. So it's like, can you

387
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,119
go out there take advantage of that easy schedule with

388
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,960
like the two quarterbacks that are really good, that you

389
00:19:32,079 --> 00:19:35,559
have this defense that is amazing too, So it's like,

390
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,200
can you get the big games done. It's like the

391
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,319
same thing with James Franklin, like can you win the

392
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:42,799
big games?

393
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 6: Last year? Didn't win the one that he needed to Washington.

394
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 10: Yeah, so I think if you do take that loss

395
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:52,960
to Clemson, it'll be.

396
00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 4: A little yeah Sarks.

397
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 10: Sarks and Texas is just a little funny with like

398
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,119
how much leeway they give their coach.

399
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 4: Yeah.

400
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 8: Sarks the one that's kind of in a space of

401
00:20:02,759 --> 00:20:05,640
his own, because I agree he does need to win

402
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,839
because you lost to Washington last year, and if you

403
00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:11,200
go out and you lose to Clemson again, that's going

404
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,200
to be a very bad look. I think you need

405
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,559
to win one playoff game. You win one, I think

406
00:20:15,599 --> 00:20:17,680
you're pretty good. Now you're going to be facing off

407
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,359
against Arizona State, so a lot of people are gonna

408
00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:22,920
want you to win two. But also he's the one

409
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:26,480
guy that actually got Texas back. A lot of people

410
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,599
said they had Texas back, but they didn't really like

411
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,559
they had him in an okay spot. But Texas is

412
00:20:32,559 --> 00:20:35,759
not okay. Texas expects to be great, right, and he

413
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,839
got them to that point. So I actually think that

414
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,960
Steve Sarkisian should get a little leeway because he's actually

415
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,000
got them not only in the conversation, but he's got

416
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,319
them in the games when nobody else, Tom Herman, Charlie Sherrong,

417
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:49,000
all these guys never got them in that spot, well.

418
00:20:48,799 --> 00:20:50,839
Speaker 7: Two years in a row. But like, well, okay, what happens,

419
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,240
Because I agree, I don't think there should be any

420
00:20:53,279 --> 00:20:55,640
pressure on Steve Sarkisian. What happens if he loses a

421
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,599
Clemson by fourteen points, goes in there, Quinn Heyewers plays awful,

422
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,039
the defense doesn't hold up like it has all year long,

423
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:04,200
Like there'll be people.

424
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,599
Speaker 10: Talking because I don't think like I think that there's

425
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:10,279
like a sneaky, like tiny little amount of I'm not

426
00:21:10,279 --> 00:21:12,640
saying there's pressure on start, but like there's like a

427
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,680
little bit there because like ye last year, also those

428
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:21,039
two losses to Georgia, like the two games that were.

429
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,839
Speaker 7: The two games challenge.

430
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 6: Right exactly.

431
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,440
Speaker 10: Yeah, Like, so those two losses to Georgia, plus if

432
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,000
you lose to Clemson, who we just said Dabbo might

433
00:21:32,039 --> 00:21:35,359
be on the hot seat or like have pressure on him.

434
00:21:35,759 --> 00:21:37,920
It just it's not people are gonna be upset about

435
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:38,559
that for sure.

436
00:21:40,039 --> 00:21:43,319
Speaker 8: Of the coaches in the college Football Playoff, we're talking about,

437
00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:46,920
you know, who has the most pressure, who is playing

438
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,000
with the most house money? Like which team do you

439
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,640
think you could go out there and see them? Just

440
00:21:51,759 --> 00:21:55,359
at buck Wild, We're throwing flea flickers, We're doing every

441
00:21:55,480 --> 00:22:00,599
double reverse passes because right now where we already are.

442
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,599
Speaker 4: Like it's already India, it's already good enough.

443
00:22:03,839 --> 00:22:08,039
Speaker 8: Oh there's a lot of teams for me in Arizona State.

444
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,079
Speaker 7: Yeah, Like I would say Boise State because you know, the.

445
00:22:11,039 --> 00:22:12,640
Speaker 4: Boys has got a little bit more expectation.

446
00:22:12,839 --> 00:22:15,359
Speaker 7: Yeah, not only that Boise He's got to be thinking

447
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,200
when's the next time we're back here, Like Jean's He's gone.

448
00:22:18,279 --> 00:22:20,200
Like as much as we want to go out there

449
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,319
and play free, we got to play smart as well.

450
00:22:22,559 --> 00:22:24,880
Arizona State, we talked about it. They were picked to

451
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:26,960
finish dead last in their conference. They had a point

452
00:22:27,079 --> 00:22:29,480
five percent chance of winning the Big Twelve coming into

453
00:22:29,519 --> 00:22:32,480
this year. Kenny Dillingham's young, he's from there, He's not

454
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,839
going anywhere. I mean, I imagine that. You know, it

455
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,000
looks like they have staying power in that conference. I

456
00:22:38,039 --> 00:22:40,519
think Arizona State's the one that just house money right now.

457
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,920
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's fair point because Boise State, you know, even

458
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:44,720
though they are.

459
00:22:44,799 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 4: Like the class and have been the class for two decades.

460
00:22:47,279 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 8: Of the group of five, it's like, when are we

461
00:22:49,279 --> 00:22:51,319
ever going to be in a position like this, certainly

462
00:22:51,319 --> 00:22:54,359
where we get the buye and we're waiting on an opponent.

463
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:58,880
Indiana Signetty didn't have a lot of pressure, But also

464
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:01,319
the same thing, like we ever have a schedule that

465
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,839
lines up like that. We had all these veteran players

466
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,039
come over from James Madison. Now it's not to say

467
00:23:06,079 --> 00:23:11,559
that they can't parlay this into future success.

468
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:12,640
Speaker 4: I mean they certainly can.

469
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:14,759
Speaker 8: But what if they don't, Like, what if they don't

470
00:23:14,799 --> 00:23:16,680
get the guys in recruits that they think they're going

471
00:23:16,759 --> 00:23:20,240
to get SMU kind of same deal, Like SMU I

472
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,400
think is actually going to be on the rise. I

473
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,480
think SMU is about this might be the best time

474
00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,640
that you get SMU. They got a lot of money

475
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:29,160
in Highland.

476
00:23:29,799 --> 00:23:31,839
Speaker 4: With all that money, I mean they they're.

477
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,640
Speaker 8: Paying their way in the ACC right now. They're not

478
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,279
getting it checked in the conference. They're literally getting paid

479
00:23:37,839 --> 00:23:41,960
and in this position by people from the school to

480
00:23:42,039 --> 00:23:42,880
support the school.

481
00:23:43,519 --> 00:23:45,039
Speaker 4: And you know that they're going to get a bump.

482
00:23:45,079 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 8: I mean, who wouldn't want to go to SMU, Like

483
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,440
if I'm in that area, They're going to start competing

484
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,240
with some of these recruits that are going to other

485
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:54,359
places in the state of Tech. Like maybe not Texas

486
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:58,559
and Texas A and M right now, but TCU in Baylor,

487
00:23:58,759 --> 00:24:02,720
Texas Tech like those places. Escum, he's ahead of those

488
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:03,400
places right now.

489
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,319
Speaker 7: It has to be absolutely yeah. I mean you have

490
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,240
you have Texas and Texas A and M and the SEC.

491
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,799
I mean the third team has to be SMU. Now

492
00:24:09,839 --> 00:24:10,599
it's no longer.

493
00:24:10,519 --> 00:24:14,200
Speaker 4: Texas big enough foras in Texas, You're still going to have.

494
00:24:14,079 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 7: Some really good players well, and you have the advantage of,

495
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,680
like we're the one Texas team not in the sec

496
00:24:20,839 --> 00:24:23,000
S while the SEC is kind of cannibalizing each other.

497
00:24:23,079 --> 00:24:24,279
You can gotta sit over there in the A C.

498
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,480
C a little bit Uh, but no, to your point

499
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,559
about Indiana, Jake, I kind of agree with you. It's

500
00:24:29,599 --> 00:24:32,039
like Signetti's like, hey, you know, the schedule is never

501
00:24:32,079 --> 00:24:34,599
going to align to us. And also so many times

502
00:24:34,839 --> 00:24:37,359
a coach comes in with low expectations and they surprise

503
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,440
a lot of teams. Right, the teams don't teams aren't

504
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,319
prepared for them. That's not going to be the case anymore.

505
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,799
I mean, people people know about Kirk Signetti, they know

506
00:24:43,839 --> 00:24:47,200
Indiana's hopefully here to stay. So no, I gotta go

507
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:49,240
to Arizona State. Like I just I keep going back

508
00:24:49,279 --> 00:24:52,319
to them. Dillingham's young, he's been at that school. I mean,

509
00:24:52,319 --> 00:24:54,960
that's that's his alma mater, and that's a more winnable

510
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,960
conference I think, year in and year out for Arizona

511
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:57,759
State than the Big Ten.

512
00:24:59,279 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 8: I'll give you a quick example just of how much

513
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,960
talent Texas has and a lot of our listeners know

514
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,599
this because they've seen l Schuber crew Texas or they

515
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,000
live in Texas. Still when htt Lashley like when they

516
00:25:10,039 --> 00:25:14,440
went to watch Texas high school football, they didn't know

517
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:17,759
who Kevin Jennings really was. They went to watch another

518
00:25:17,839 --> 00:25:21,279
player and Brett last year's like wait a minute, who's

519
00:25:21,319 --> 00:25:24,680
the quarterback? Tell me about the quarterback. I don't care

520
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,160
about the guy I came here to see. I want

521
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:28,559
to know about the quarterback. So, like, nobody really knew

522
00:25:28,599 --> 00:25:31,720
who Kevin Jennings was, and by the end of it,

523
00:25:31,759 --> 00:25:35,039
he left with an SMU offer because like, that's the

524
00:25:35,039 --> 00:25:37,480
state of Texas, and so like again, if you're third

525
00:25:37,559 --> 00:25:40,440
place in that state, you're still doing really well in recruiting.

526
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,880
You can still build a program and then like, hey,

527
00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,880
find your little pipelines, right, Can you get a little

528
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:47,640
bit in North Louisiana? Can you get a little bit

529
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:51,799
in South Oklahoma parts of Arkansas to you know, make

530
00:25:51,839 --> 00:25:53,440
your program. And of course SMU is going to be

531
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,720
somebody that takes, you know, transfers in as well. I mean,

532
00:25:56,759 --> 00:25:59,240
obviously it's it's going to be something where you can

533
00:25:59,279 --> 00:26:01,559
benefit there. But I don't know, man, there's a lot

534
00:26:01,599 --> 00:26:04,240
of coaches and a lot of programs right now that

535
00:26:04,279 --> 00:26:08,720
are going to play dangerous, play free because there's a

536
00:26:08,799 --> 00:26:10,880
lot of expectation on them and a lot of people

537
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,039
expect them to lose. Anyways, all right, we will step

538
00:26:14,079 --> 00:26:16,599
away more OTB when we come back here one oh

539

the car and not even giving us a listen.

578
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,400
Speaker 6: He's like the most disloyal person.

579
00:28:27,319 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 4: The most I've ever met in my life ever.

580
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,720
Speaker 7: What I appreciated about it, he owns it, but he

581
00:28:33,799 --> 00:28:37,559
knows it. He's like, yeah, he has your bonus.

582
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,559
Speaker 4: That man really thought that was a check he did.

583
00:28:40,079 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 10: He texted last night and he was like, hey, I

584
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:43,799
have your bonus and I was like, no, you don't know.

585
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,359
Speaker 7: I was like, last year was just like the stud

586
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:50,880
the past stuff. Yeah, like you unfolded, it's like super

587
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,039
thin paper, Like it doesn't look like a check at all.

588
00:28:53,279 --> 00:28:54,920
I opened. As soon as I opened mind, I felt it.

589
00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:56,839
I don't even unfolded. I'm like, oh, this isn't a check,

590
00:28:56,839 --> 00:28:57,880
it's just the stuff.

591
00:28:58,079 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 8: Yeah, he's like one of those guys where like if

592
00:29:01,279 --> 00:29:03,920
we have beef with somebody that like we kind of

593
00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:06,480
all know, but they're not like, you know, core members,

594
00:29:06,519 --> 00:29:07,319
Like we're core members.

595
00:29:07,319 --> 00:29:08,319
Speaker 4: We see each other every day.

596
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,599
Speaker 8: Yeah, and like if I had a problem with one

597
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,119
of them, kind of like the Chase Daniel thing.

598
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's hear both sides. Let's let you know, let's

599
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:17,519
let both people speak here.

600
00:29:17,519 --> 00:29:19,599
Speaker 8: I don't where if y'all had a problem, somebody'd be like, yeah,

601
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:20,839
screw that person.

602
00:29:21,039 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 4: Even if we were all wrong. Yeah, screw that person

603
00:29:24,839 --> 00:29:25,039
I have.

604
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:27,279
Speaker 6: I don't like Chase Daniels.

605
00:29:27,359 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 4: Yeah right.

606
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 7: I have a lot of opinions on football players. Shocker.

607
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,720
I know. I always ask you, Jake, Jake, you've probably

608
00:29:33,799 --> 00:29:36,079
met this person. What's this guy? Like he tells me

609
00:29:36,119 --> 00:29:38,119
they're okay, Okay, Well I'll give my a shot if

610
00:29:38,119 --> 00:29:39,440
he tells me they suck and be like, I mean

611
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:41,519
that kind of makes sense. Okay, Yeah, we do that

612
00:29:41,599 --> 00:29:42,000
all the time.

613
00:29:42,039 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 8: There's nobody that I have to fight that fight for

614
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:48,759
more than my guy Danny Canal because Danny on Twitter,

615
00:29:49,799 --> 00:29:50,400
I get it.

616
00:29:50,559 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 4: I trust me.

617
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,160
Speaker 8: Even sometimes I'm friends with Danny, I'm like, Dany, that's

618
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:59,119
a step too far in person. Danny's awesome, great. Doing

619
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:04,599
shows with Danny is fun. He's not Twitter Danny Twitter Danny.

620
00:30:04,759 --> 00:30:07,119
I don't know about Twitters. Hard to defend, very hard

621
00:30:07,119 --> 00:30:09,279
to defend. But I try to get out in front

622
00:30:09,279 --> 00:30:11,279
of it again because like I'm like, okay, we're colleagues.

623
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 4: We work on.

624
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,279
Speaker 8: The same channel over on series six M. That's that's

625
00:30:15,319 --> 00:30:17,960
the hardest one. I feel like I am John Snow

626
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,799
and the horses are charging right at me with that one. Yeah,

627
00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:22,400
I got to get the sword out and it's like

628
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:23,400
it's going to be a battle.

629
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,039
Speaker 7: Well, especially where we're at right because he kind of

630
00:30:26,079 --> 00:30:28,720
he kind of made his Like the first time it

631
00:30:28,799 --> 00:30:31,200
was like the Twitter controversy was like, Danny Canell is

632
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,160
the anti SEC guy. Danny Canell hates all things SEC.

633
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,759
He's an acc elitist, Like we don't want to be

634
00:30:36,839 --> 00:30:38,799
so like not only does he does he pop off

635
00:30:38,799 --> 00:30:41,160
on Twitter? Where you live is especially tough.

636
00:30:41,359 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not easy. It is not easy. Tata, you

637
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:46,519
were telling me a story.

638
00:30:46,839 --> 00:30:49,319
Speaker 8: We were talking about Kevin Jennings being found if I

639
00:30:49,359 --> 00:30:52,359
read lashly just randomly going to watch a high school

640
00:30:52,359 --> 00:30:53,359
game with another recruits.

641
00:30:53,359 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 4: Actually how I got found by a coach saban.

642
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:58,599
Speaker 8: He was there to watch our quarterback at spring practice,

643
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,880
John David Boody, and didn't know who I was.

644
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:02,839
Speaker 4: So it's always great to hear a story like this.

645
00:31:03,599 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, so I was telling you Jack Tuttle, who we

646
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,640
all know. He's been in multiple colleges. He's in Michigan

647
00:31:09,759 --> 00:31:12,960
right now. Ohio State was bringing in Jack Tuttle for

648
00:31:13,039 --> 00:31:14,880
like a summer camp. They wanted to bring him in

649
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,480
and see him throw. He's kind of like taking a

650
00:31:16,559 --> 00:31:18,440
visit and they were like, who do you want to

651
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,119
throw to? And he said, Hey, is it okay if

652
00:31:20,119 --> 00:31:23,079
I bring my high school teammate. His high school teammate

653
00:31:23,119 --> 00:31:25,680
was Chris Olave, and Chris o'lave wound up obviously getting

654
00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,599
any scholarship from Ohio State and the rest is history.

655
00:31:28,599 --> 00:31:31,119
And then I was also telling you about Kyle Trask

656
00:31:31,519 --> 00:31:34,519
because when Kyle Trast took over for Felipe Franks, everybody said, hey,

657
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:36,640
why did we never heard about Kyle Trask, He's he

658
00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:39,079
looks so much better than Felipe Frank's like, what's the deal.

659
00:31:39,359 --> 00:31:42,039
Kyle trast never started a game in high school. He

660
00:31:42,079 --> 00:31:46,359
was on the same team as Dearic King. Who Houston Miami.

661
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:50,200
We know Deerick King quarterback coach? Now, yes, yeah, Well,

662
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,200
so their coach wanted to run the triple option, which

663
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:57,079
is obviously way more fits Derek King's skill set than Trask. Well,

664
00:31:57,119 --> 00:31:59,240
their team was really good. They were blowing guys out

665
00:31:59,559 --> 00:32:01,640
and they would put in Trask in the second half

666
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:04,559
switch their offense to a spread. Dan Mullen was in

667
00:32:04,559 --> 00:32:06,640
the stands and was like, well, that guy fits my offense.

668
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:07,039
Speaker 4: Who's that?

669
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:07,319
Speaker 11: So?

670
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:09,519
Speaker 7: Kyle Trausse got a scholarship all for without ever started

671
00:32:09,519 --> 00:32:10,119
in high school.

672
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 4: That is why it's kind of gosh.

673
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 8: Who Matt Castle, who never started USC played like a

674
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:20,440
decade plus in the NFL basically Patriots. Somebody just seeing

675
00:32:20,519 --> 00:32:25,640
him throw the football. I guess some camp or something combine,

676
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,319
whatever it might be. I always love stories like that.

677
00:32:28,559 --> 00:32:32,599
There's always great like camp stories. Well, there's one Notre

678
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,720
Dames on the on the TV and they're talking about

679
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,440
them because they're playing today, which we'll get to maybe

680
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:39,839
a prediction break down of the game. One of my

681
00:32:39,839 --> 00:32:42,880
favorite stories, So there was a Notre Dame football camp

682
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,680
and my guy, Philip Rivers went up to the camp.

683
00:32:45,759 --> 00:32:48,960
And Philip wasn't like a highly recruited guy. I mean,

684
00:32:49,039 --> 00:32:51,720
he had scholarship offers to play quarterback at nc State

685
00:32:51,839 --> 00:32:55,799
or tight end at Auburn, like those were his two offers. Well,

686
00:32:55,799 --> 00:32:58,440
he's going this Notre Dame camp and I guess it

687
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,400
would have been Casey Clawson that started at Tennessee for

688
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,319
a long time, had a pretty decent career.

689
00:33:04,119 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 4: Well, they go to the camp. Whatever, nobody knows who

690
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:07,000
Philip is.

691
00:33:07,039 --> 00:33:09,480
Speaker 8: He you know, he's got the different throwing motion and

692
00:33:09,559 --> 00:33:11,480
so like everybody's kind of, you know, has their thoughts

693
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:13,920
on that. And he goes up to the camp and

694
00:33:14,279 --> 00:33:16,200
he sees Casey kind of getting ready to go, and

695
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,319
Phillip's like, hey, you know, let's play catch, let's get

696
00:33:18,359 --> 00:33:20,400
warmed up, and Casey's like looks at him, He's.

697
00:33:20,319 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 4: Like, I don't know who you are, broh and waves

698
00:33:23,079 --> 00:33:23,519
him off.

699
00:33:24,799 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 8: Wouldn't warm up with Philip Rivers, whose potential NFL Hall

700
00:33:28,519 --> 00:33:32,440
of Fame, because he didn't think he had the status.

701
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,119
Speaker 4: To warm up with him.

702
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:34,799
Speaker 6: That's crazy.

703
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:35,519
Speaker 4: How about that?

704
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,160
Speaker 7: Not the I don't know him? Not the first time

705
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,720
I've heard a story like that involving Casey Clawson. So

706
00:33:40,759 --> 00:33:43,920
I'm not not not super surprised by that. That family.

707
00:33:44,039 --> 00:33:47,400
I mean, remember remember when Jimmy the youngest was starting,

708
00:33:47,359 --> 00:33:49,559
I mean, he was mister everything. He was Heisman favorite

709
00:33:49,559 --> 00:33:52,559
in Notre Dame. They're like this guy and then just no,

710
00:33:52,759 --> 00:33:54,359
and who was that was that? The mel Was that

711
00:33:54,559 --> 00:33:56,839
the mel kiper where he said, if Jimmy Klauson he's

712
00:33:56,839 --> 00:33:58,839
got a good quarterback, all retire? Yeah, I think it

713
00:33:58,880 --> 00:33:59,680
was Jimmy Lawson.

714
00:34:00,079 --> 00:34:00,279
Speaker 4: Yeah.

715
00:34:00,279 --> 00:34:03,079
Speaker 8: So there's Casey, there was Rick, who actually started his

716
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:06,079
career here at LSU, and then there was Jimmy. Is

717
00:34:06,119 --> 00:34:08,440
there a better redneck name to say than Jimmy by

718
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:12,079
the way, No, I mean every time you say his Jimmy.

719
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:17,000
Speaker 4: Jimmy, it's yeah Tiers s. Tier. So yeah, that's my

720
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:18,159
my clossing story.

721
00:34:18,199 --> 00:34:21,679
Speaker 8: And speaking of Notre Dame, as I mentioned, they are

722
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:23,000
playing tonight.

723
00:34:23,079 --> 00:34:26,039
Speaker 4: Styles make fights. Notre Dame wants to run the football.

724
00:34:26,159 --> 00:34:30,000
Speaker 8: Indiana stops to run better than anybody in the country.

725
00:34:30,119 --> 00:34:32,880
Cannot wait to see which one of these styles wins out.

726
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,880
It is going to be in the snow, it's going

727
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,079
to be colder than cold, it's going to be a

728
00:34:38,159 --> 00:34:39,000
nighttime game.

729
00:34:40,159 --> 00:34:41,079
Speaker 4: Gosh, Notre Dame.

730
00:34:41,159 --> 00:34:44,760
Speaker 8: I think maybe the first Friday home game I believe

731
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:49,000
they've ever played, and like some crazy NBC stat the

732
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:51,239
first one that's not going to be a home NBC game,

733
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,920
And you know have for many years. So a lot

734
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,480
of different things going on there in South Bend, and

735
00:34:57,679 --> 00:35:00,039
you know they've got some pressure on them, like the

736
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,320
the last thing that you want to do. Going back

737
00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,519
to our last segment about expectations and who's playing with

738
00:35:04,599 --> 00:35:07,320
house money and who's got the most pressure, it's not

739
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,079
Marcus Freeman, because Marcus Freeman just got an extension.

740
00:35:10,079 --> 00:35:15,480
Speaker 4: He's doing awesome things there. But just like having Indiana.

741
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:18,159
Speaker 8: Who's in your state, who's not even like a little brother,

742
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,440
they've been so irrelevant. They're not even little brother. They're

743
00:35:20,559 --> 00:35:25,800
like your distant fourth cousin. And if they come into

744
00:35:26,519 --> 00:35:28,440
if they come into your trap and take your trap,

745
00:35:28,639 --> 00:35:32,480
as Kirk Thuggans would say, that's.

746
00:35:32,119 --> 00:35:32,880
Speaker 4: Not a great look.

747
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,639
Speaker 8: I mean, you would have a really good year, but

748
00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,840
that would include two losses against Northern Illinois and Indiana.

749
00:35:40,199 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, and I mean, you know, you got a fiery

750
00:35:43,039 --> 00:35:45,639
coach that kind of made waves in the main stream

751
00:35:45,679 --> 00:35:48,519
with Kurt Signetti. Everybody loves him. You mentioned it. You're

752
00:35:48,559 --> 00:35:50,760
in the same state, but you're also going against a

753
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:52,400
team that's in the Big Ten. I mean, they're in

754
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,559
in the league conference for you, for whatever reason, just

755
00:35:54,599 --> 00:35:57,800
refuse to join one and remain independent. But yeah, I

756
00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:59,960
mean the bigger the Big Ten gets in, the bigger

757
00:36:00,079 --> 00:36:02,599
Signetti gets. If Indiana can win this game, that is

758
00:36:02,639 --> 00:36:05,199
bad use for Dame because for for what a reason

759
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,119
you could say, okay, well, high school football in the

760
00:36:07,119 --> 00:36:09,119
state of Indiana, whatever, it doesn't matter. Notre Dame gets

761
00:36:09,159 --> 00:36:12,079
all those players they always have. They see a change

762
00:36:12,119 --> 00:36:13,000
into the guard a little bit.

763
00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,559
Speaker 4: Alandra, Indiana, Notre Dame, how are you feeling.

764
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,760
Speaker 6: I'm kind of feeling Indiana on this one.

765
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:23,840
Speaker 10: I think Kurt Signetti has obviously more experience than Marcus

766
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,760
Freeman does, and I think that gives him a little

767
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:28,800
bit of an edge in this game.

768
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:32,119
Speaker 6: So I kind of want to go Indiana on this one.

769
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,559
Speaker 8: I would love to see a big cat drill between

770
00:36:34,599 --> 00:36:37,159
the two head coaches at the fifty yard line before

771
00:36:37,199 --> 00:36:37,639
the game.

772
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 11: I got.

773
00:36:40,199 --> 00:36:43,159
Speaker 8: Yeah, Kurt Signetti's like he's got some piss and vinegars.

774
00:36:43,199 --> 00:36:46,519
Now Marcus Freeman, he's my mea head Brethren. I played

775
00:36:46,559 --> 00:36:47,360
against Marcus.

776
00:36:47,599 --> 00:36:50,400
Speaker 7: That's the wattie against each other. Yeah, he was on team.

777
00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I need to see.

778
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 7: I want to pick Indiana so bad in this game

779
00:36:57,519 --> 00:36:59,239
for all the reasons you just said.

780
00:37:00,639 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 8: Does it feel weird though? Okay, so all these games

781
00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,679
are at least a touchdown favorite. Yeah, at least they

782
00:37:06,679 --> 00:37:07,840
were yesterday, and I.

783
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,519
Speaker 7: Think Notre Dame might actually be down a six and

784
00:37:09,519 --> 00:37:09,760
a half.

785
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,840
Speaker 8: Okay, so it dropped a little bit since yesterday. So

786
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:16,039
everybody expects the favorites to roll in these games. But

787
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,920
more than any game here in the first round, there's

788
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:24,119
been late love for Indiana more than any underdog. I'm

789
00:37:24,119 --> 00:37:25,840
talking about in the bets I'm talking about in the

790
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,639
conversation here on this show. We hear some in the

791
00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:33,360
chat on off campus. It's like all the interactions we

792
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:37,719
gets like Indiana Indiana. There's a belief that Indiana's going

793
00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,880
to go do this deal. Yeah, and that's why you

794
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:41,960
see the line change like it is. And I don't

795
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,599
know what the shift was, because it wasn't always like that.

796
00:37:44,639 --> 00:37:47,440
But over the last probably five or six days, there's

797
00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:50,079
been a big hey Indiana. I don't know if it's

798
00:37:50,119 --> 00:37:52,800
people started to dive into the analytics. I don't know,

799
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:54,639
if they started to watch some tape. I don't know,

800
00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:56,800
but it's been Indiana love the last couple of days.

801
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:58,599
Speaker 7: I think it's Signetti. I mean I think it's everything

802
00:37:58,639 --> 00:38:00,679
we talked about because look at the other Fround games

803
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,199
Josh Haipel, you know a lot of people have mixed

804
00:38:03,199 --> 00:38:07,360
opinions about him. We know who Ryan Day is, sarc Dabo,

805
00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,000
Clemson Texas. They are what they are. I mean, nothing,

806
00:38:10,039 --> 00:38:12,960
nothing's going to shock us in that game any outcome.

807
00:38:13,079 --> 00:38:15,440
Everybody expects Penn State to roll over us. And you

808
00:38:16,199 --> 00:38:18,639
the Signetti factor though, I mean, that's that's the one

809
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,280
coach that, like we were talking about, He's he's really

810
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:23,800
kind of become mainstream this year. A lot of people

811
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,360
have jumped on the Signetti bandwagon. I mean I think

812
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:28,920
that extra Signetti bump is what's getting people to side

813
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:29,519
with Indiana.

814
00:38:31,199 --> 00:38:32,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think it's the Signette.

815
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 10: But like also Indiana, to me, like they dominated the

816
00:38:37,519 --> 00:38:40,480
games that they won Notre Dame like it was more

817
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,920
of like a closer score between the games that they

818
00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:45,000
won with their opponents.

819
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,800
Speaker 6: But I just I don't know like this one.

820
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 10: I'm literally going strictly off vibes and Indiana's just giving

821
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:53,280
me a vibe.

822
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,320
Speaker 6: Kurt Signetti's given me a vibe. But he's gonna go

823
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:57,239
win that game.

which teams that we think are going to win, Because

00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:10,480
Speaker 10: Biber, Yeah this is I was like, I'm like topa, topa.

864
00:41:11,039 --> 00:41:13,039
Speaker 8: I mean, look, I can get behind some beabs, but yeah,

865
00:41:14,039 --> 00:41:16,800
bes I sor right, spent some mess stuff.

866
00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 4: T BO plays awful music.

867
00:41:18,519 --> 00:41:22,199
Speaker 8: Case all right, So last night my Bush League Bolts

868
00:41:22,519 --> 00:41:25,119
took care of the Broncos. The Broncos were my team

869
00:41:25,159 --> 00:41:27,559
for a couple of years, but I spent longer with

870
00:41:27,639 --> 00:41:31,280
the Bush League Bolts, and so you'll know where you

871
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:35,159
know my loyalty lies. And so watching the game, and

872
00:41:36,519 --> 00:41:40,239
something happened for the first time since nineteen seventy six,

873
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:43,239
and in fact, when it happened in nineteen seventy six,

874
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,719
it was also involving a charger. Then San Diego charger

875
00:41:47,159 --> 00:41:50,039
kicker was the last kicker to make a.

876
00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,199
Speaker 4: Fair catch free kick.

877
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 8: And here's what it sounded like last night when it

878
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:58,760
happened again again for the first time in NFL since

879
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,639
nineteen seventy six, three years.

880
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 11: Now, serving charger kicking roles for several years prior to that,

881
00:42:09,119 --> 00:42:11,480
Kenny banget through on its way.

882
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:12,440
Speaker 2: It is.

883
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:16,599
Speaker 4: All right.

884
00:42:16,679 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 8: So that was Dicker, the kicker, Cameron Dicker with a

885
00:42:21,039 --> 00:42:26,440
fifty seven yard free kick, and so you know, it

886
00:42:26,599 --> 00:42:30,639
is one of those crazy rules, and after a fair catch,

887
00:42:30,679 --> 00:42:33,639
you had the option to try a free kick. Now,

888
00:42:33,679 --> 00:42:36,880
oftentimes you don't see this situation pop up and if

889
00:42:36,880 --> 00:42:38,199
you you know, you get the ball back, you're trying

890
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:41,559
to go score touchdowns. But the Chargers, they had fair

891
00:42:41,679 --> 00:42:47,119
catch interference against them, right, so they got fifteen more yards. Actually,

892
00:42:47,199 --> 00:42:50,480
Darius Davis, who you know, played down the road, believe it.

893
00:42:50,599 --> 00:42:53,639
Wes fel So shout out to a local guy and

894
00:42:53,679 --> 00:42:56,159
they tried it and it would look it was one

895
00:42:56,159 --> 00:42:58,960
of the differences in the game. They need, oh man,

896
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,519
they needed some momentum going into the locker room. So

897
00:43:02,559 --> 00:43:06,159
again first time it's happened since nineteen seventy six. Every

898
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:10,920
special teams coach ever, like would talk about these crazy rules.

899
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:12,519
It's kind of like the one like if a kick's

900
00:43:12,519 --> 00:43:14,360
going out of bounds and you step out of bounds

901
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,719
and have one foot in one foot out and you

902
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,480
catch it, you get the ball at the forty Like

903
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:22,559
it's one of those crazy special teams rules. So Tayte Alandra,

904
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:25,480
did you all know this was actually a rule? Before

905
00:43:25,519 --> 00:43:26,679
seeing it last night.

906
00:43:26,599 --> 00:43:29,199
Speaker 7: I had heard about like being able to do the

907
00:43:29,239 --> 00:43:32,960
free kick. I had never seen it done obviously, because

908
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:34,159
I wasn't around way back then.

909
00:43:34,199 --> 00:43:36,280
Speaker 4: I was, I mean, I was negative nine.

910
00:43:38,119 --> 00:43:40,280
Speaker 7: It's cool to see. I couldn't remember exactly. So it's

911
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:41,880
one of those rules You're like, I know there's a

912
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,119
free kick, but I'm not quite sure.

913
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,079
Speaker 8: How So when I got home last I saw it.

914
00:43:46,079 --> 00:43:49,480
I was like, oh, yeah, okay, so here's what it is.

915
00:43:49,559 --> 00:43:52,360
And again this rich Bisacia. I've got to text you.

916
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,360
I know you were giddy last night watching this as

917
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:56,760
many times you've told us about it. So, according to

918
00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,559
NFL rules, if a player makes a fair catch, his

919
00:43:59,639 --> 00:44:02,880
team attempt a kick from the spot rather than begin

920
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:06,039
its next possession. If the kick goes through the goal

921
00:44:06,079 --> 00:44:08,599
post on the scoring end of the field, it is

922
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,920
worth you guessed it three points as many as a

923
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:15,880
field goal. On a fair catch kick, the ball does

924
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,719
not have to be snapped, and the kicker can have

925
00:44:18,840 --> 00:44:22,360
a bigger running start before kicking the ball. Essentially, it's

926
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,320
just like a kickoff attempt with a holder instead of

927
00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:28,039
a t And I was surprised, like Cameron Dicker only

928
00:44:28,079 --> 00:44:30,840
took his normal three steps. I was kind of like, hey,

929
00:44:31,119 --> 00:44:33,320
you know you can, like you can get back there.

930
00:44:33,519 --> 00:44:36,920
And my son, who he's fifteen, and I mean, look,

931
00:44:37,119 --> 00:44:39,119
he talks football, da he goes, yeah, but if you

932
00:44:39,159 --> 00:44:41,880
do that, then like it's gonna maybe change you know,

933
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:42,840
how agree.

934
00:44:42,559 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 4: You can be? Yeah exactly.

935
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:45,559
Speaker 8: So I was like, actually, it's a good point and

936
00:44:45,639 --> 00:44:48,480
Dicker's certainly got the leg to make a fifty seven yarder,

937
00:44:48,559 --> 00:44:51,840
So how about the rule? Yeah, And I'm surprised, like

938
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:54,079
we hadn't seen this more like right before the half,

939
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,079
you know, a team's backed up and you fair catch it,

940
00:44:57,119 --> 00:44:57,639
you catch.

941
00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,280
Speaker 4: It on the fifty, why not? Why not give it

942
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:01,960
a go? And I don't believe you can't return it

943
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:02,920
either is mine.

944
00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:08,800
Speaker 7: It's higher percentage than hail mayor he only need three points.

945
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:10,239
I mean, if you're kicking it from the forty five

946
00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:12,039
or the fifty, like, yeah, why not it's the last

947
00:45:12,039 --> 00:45:12,719
play the half.

948
00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:17,239
Speaker 8: You could tell like Harball like he knew it, but

949
00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,639
he was like, I need to triple confirm that this

950
00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:22,119
is a real thing. Like he had that blank look

951
00:45:22,159 --> 00:45:24,800
on his face, which I loved. Jamar Ball that the

952
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:26,639
fact that he's coaching my bush league bolts. But it

953
00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:28,159
kind of always says I love, but it was even

954
00:45:28,159 --> 00:45:31,480
more so so. Yeah, first time since nineteen seventy six

955
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:35,000
the Chargers get the dub big for them as they

956
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,079
are trying to get into the postseason after a disaster

957
00:45:38,199 --> 00:45:41,440
that was Brandon Staley. It was certainly good to see

958
00:45:41,519 --> 00:45:45,320
all right coming up in our number three. I believe

959
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:47,960
Rivers is going to be back in after a couple

960
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,079
of weeks gone. I believe t Bob at some point

961
00:45:50,119 --> 00:45:53,159
is coming back as well. Pontoon Parlay, what's the ticket?

962
00:45:53,159 --> 00:45:54,400

in that portion of it when we're outside watching TV.

983
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:49,840
Gorilla in the whole deal, but just watching TV completely

984
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:51,960
changes the mood of your living room. It's going to
