36
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:38,920
on the LIEJ How you living?

37
00:01:40,359 --> 00:01:43,519
Speaker 3: I'm great? Love it, Ben love the golf references.

38
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,239
Speaker 2: You know what Ben? Hey? Uh drive for show, putt

39
00:01:47,359 --> 00:01:49,799
for dough? What do you do best? You putt or

40
00:01:50,319 --> 00:01:51,599
drive for show better.

41
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,079
Speaker 3: I'd have to say i'd putt better. Back in the

42
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,959
old days, I could drive the ball fairly well, but uh,

43
00:01:59,239 --> 00:02:02,239
not so much anymore. But my putting has been pretty decent.

44
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,920
That's one kind of scale or talent that doesn't require

45
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,919
as much physical exertion. I guess so I'm still pretty

46
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:10,319
good cutter.

47
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:15,319
Speaker 1: Are you a better driver or a better wedger? You know,

48
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:16,400
from like one hundred in.

49
00:02:18,199 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 3: You know, the wedge play has always kind of been

50
00:02:20,439 --> 00:02:23,560
a weakness of mine. I'd probably say driver never been

51
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,039
really good, never really had a great short game aside

52
00:02:27,039 --> 00:02:30,000
from putting, Probably because I don't practice enough. When I

53
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:31,319
get on the golf course, I want to play. I

54
00:02:31,319 --> 00:02:34,599
don't want to go to the driving range in practice.

55
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 1: I feel you on that. Well, get some Prevo Golf apparl.

56
00:02:38,719 --> 00:02:40,319
We have to get you hooked up with some some

57
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,879
good deals at Prevowgolf Apparel dot com. Jay, what's the

58
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,400
latest on Canard Davis Junior?

59
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:48,919
Speaker 2: What's the status?

60
00:02:50,479 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, the status is that yesterday? All right? Well, I

61
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,120
guess it was late Tuesday night after the police report

62
00:02:59,199 --> 00:03:03,319
was released to the pub. But Tuesday morning, Tuesday night,

63
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:10,680
the Troble City Attorney's office prosecutor charged Cannard Davis with

64
00:03:11,319 --> 00:03:16,159
one count of misdemeanor d UI with possession of marijuana.

65
00:03:16,719 --> 00:03:18,240
It's the Class B misdemeanor.

66
00:03:18,879 --> 00:03:19,080
Speaker 2: UH.

67
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 3: They recommended a fine of something like one ninety dollars.

68
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,560
A few hours later, UH Canard, through his attorney Danny

69
00:03:28,599 --> 00:03:33,400
Frasier of South Jordan, entered at no guilty, not guilty plea,

70
00:03:34,439 --> 00:03:39,280
asked for a jury trial, an expedient jury trial, and

71
00:03:39,719 --> 00:03:43,479
so that's where it is right now. They also, in

72
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,159
their pleading UH asked for a bunch of evidence to

73
00:03:47,199 --> 00:03:50,719
be turned over that the Provo police allegedly collected at

74
00:03:50,759 --> 00:03:54,800
the scene. Obviously, you can you know, most people can

75
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,639
figure out what that is, results of the drug test

76
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,879
of the year in test I should say things like that.

77
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,800
So that's the last I heard as far as what's happened.

78
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,719
So now we pretty much wait and see. Maybe there

79
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,360
might be a a plea bargain hammered out, But as

80
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,759
far as the legal part of the whole thing, that's

81
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:17,839
where it stands right now.

82
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:22,959
Speaker 1: Danny Fraser lawyer, is that former b YU football player

83
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,079
Danny Fraser.

84
00:04:24,959 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, it certainly is. He had a son that played

85
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,680
cornerback for the Cougars. I can't remember his name. He

86
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,680
graduates from Alta High. It was back to bround two

87
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,800
thousand and eight, two thousand and nine when I first

88
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,120
got on the beat Money your listeners or maybe Ronnie

89
00:04:40,199 --> 00:04:42,959
might remember his name Fraser.

90
00:04:42,879 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 1: Wait James Yeah, yeah, linebacker and Alta I remember Jamison Yeah,

91
00:04:49,759 --> 00:04:50,639
good football player.

92
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 3: Yeah. Danny's his father. Danny has also represented various BYU

93
00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,399
athletes over the years. He represented Michael Lloyd one time,

94
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,800
the basketball player. I think he might have been involved

95
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:08,759
in the chas U situation. I'm not positive on Matt,

96
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,720
but he's Uh, this is nothing new to Danny. I

97
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,279
think he's probably made a few phone calls when this

98
00:05:15,439 --> 00:05:18,319
hit the news, and I wouldn't be surprised if he's

99
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,279
doing it pro bono. I haven't been able to speak

100
00:05:21,319 --> 00:05:23,519
to him, but yeah, that's Danny Frasier.

101
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 1: Well, good representation obviously here. As uh we moved forward

102
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:34,399
with this. Uh A lot of people were were surprised,

103
00:05:35,079 --> 00:05:39,160
uh that that a not guilty plea was put forth

104
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:45,480
by Cannard Davis Junior any inside as to uh, you know,

105
00:05:45,519 --> 00:05:47,360
I mean, look like if if you're in possession, I

106
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,279
mean the the Meron Medcalf situation, or his report came

107
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,920
out that he had possession of marijuana and and so

108
00:05:55,439 --> 00:05:59,759
pleading not guilty to to D wise interesting to be like,

109
00:05:59,759 --> 00:06:02,639
how do you kind of correlate that and reconcile it.

110
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:09,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Myran Metcalf got the same police report that

111
00:06:09,079 --> 00:06:11,800
we all did at the exact same time. He was

112
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,399
able to come out with it first because he probably

113
00:06:14,439 --> 00:06:17,360
doesn't have to go through as many editors as since

114
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,639
we do it the desert at noon. But but yeah,

115
00:06:21,639 --> 00:06:23,800
I don't want listeners to think I wasn't on top

116
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:25,680
of that whole thing, you know, and it was sitting

117
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,720
there and got beat by ESPN. But you know that's

118
00:06:28,759 --> 00:06:30,800
neither here nor there. That's more of an ego thing

119
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,639
with media. But but yeah, the police report does say

120
00:06:34,759 --> 00:06:39,600
that there was I think the word was consumption evidence

121
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:44,319
by consumption, which would tend to believe, you know, he

122
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:49,240
had some in his system. There was also property seized

123
00:06:49,319 --> 00:06:52,000
in the police report, and that marijuana is included in that.

124
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:56,000
So apparently there was I'm not sure exactly what you

125
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,360
would call it, and not use marijuana or whatever, doesn't

126
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,199
say what form it was, you know, Obviously, marijuana nowadays

127
00:07:04,199 --> 00:07:07,519
comes in many different forms, so that, yeah, that's basically

128
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,439
where it was. There was the police report was redacted,

129
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,920
which means that some names were erased out, were blacked

130
00:07:15,959 --> 00:07:19,439
out where you can't read them. Other information was withheld

131
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,319
from the police report. The police, the pro Policity Police

132
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,759
Records Division, which is in charge of the reports now

133
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,519
and of Grandma requests, basically issued a letter along with

134
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:35,120
the police report saying that this was only a partial report.

135
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:39,040
For instance, I had requested the body cam footage from

136
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,680
from the police officers who were at the scene, and

137
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,399
there were no fewer than six at the scene of

138
00:07:45,439 --> 00:07:49,680
this two car accident, so that, uh, that wasn't released either,

139
00:07:50,439 --> 00:07:54,800
nor was the the accident report. Here the prole police

140
00:07:54,839 --> 00:07:57,360
are saying there was a two car accident, but in

141
00:07:57,399 --> 00:08:01,680
the information that they released Tuesday morning, there's no there's

142
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:06,399
no other drivers name listed, there's no other information on

143
00:08:06,439 --> 00:08:09,839
who got the ticket for causing the crash, that sort

144
00:08:09,879 --> 00:08:12,240
of thing. And my guess is that's part of the

145
00:08:12,279 --> 00:08:18,199
evidence that is being sought after by by Cannard Davis's

146
00:08:18,519 --> 00:08:19,639
legal team at this point.

147
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, you wonder if you was even it was he

148
00:08:23,199 --> 00:08:27,000
had fault in the accident. From other reports that I received,

149
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:27,480
he wasn't.

150
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,959
Speaker 3: That's what I've heard as well. There's not, like I said,

151
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,559
there's nothing in the police report that indicates he received

152
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:38,399
a citation for anything besides the duy and marijuana possession,

153
00:08:38,799 --> 00:08:41,279
which is on one citation. I should add, it's not

154
00:08:41,399 --> 00:08:46,840
two different charges. There's only one misdemeanor be charge that

155
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:51,720
was that he was charged with when the official you know,

156
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,440
charging documents came out. So so, yeah, I've heard the

157
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,519
same thing you have been that that there were other

158
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,159
people at the scene that you know, another person ran

159
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,960
a red light allegedly instruct Canard Davis while he was

160
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,720
on his way to the airport, ironically to go to

161
00:09:10,159 --> 00:09:13,799
Boston with the bya basketball team. So there's a lot

162
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,879
of stuff lying out there, but I'm not going to

163
00:09:17,919 --> 00:09:20,159
report anything, at least in the pages of the Desert

164
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,159
News until it's actually in a court document or a

165
00:09:23,159 --> 00:09:23,879
police report.

166
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:24,799
Speaker 2: Yeah.

167
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,039
Speaker 1: What was the official statement from Kevin Young, I believe

168
00:09:29,159 --> 00:09:30,960
yesterday when he got in front of the media.

169
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, Kevin was asked about it right up the taught

170
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,519
by Darnelle, but he was more at the general question

171
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:42,440
about his philosophy regarding discipline, and he did a good

172
00:09:42,519 --> 00:09:45,639
job answering that and basically just told the guys, hey,

173
00:09:45,639 --> 00:09:48,200
if you make a mistake, own up to it, and

174
00:09:49,039 --> 00:09:53,159
you know, and do the right thing. Later I asked him,

175
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:55,480
you know, if he was allowed to speak on the

176
00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:01,080
Davis situation, and he basically said, I know exactly what happened.

177
00:10:01,919 --> 00:10:06,080
I know all the little details. But he said, the

178
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,600
school has asked me to let them be the public

179
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,360
voice or the comment on it. And so he said

180
00:10:12,759 --> 00:10:14,679
that's where it stands right now, is he won't be

181
00:10:14,759 --> 00:10:17,720
making comment on the details. But he did throw in

182
00:10:17,759 --> 00:10:20,320
the fact that, hey, if the school opens it up

183
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,519
to me, I'd be more unwilling to talk about it.

184
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:26,600
So it sounds like, you know, Kevin, Kevin knows some stuff.

185
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,360
I guess you would say, Ben, that's out there and

186
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,559
maybe some of the stuff that we just discussed. And

187
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:38,480
he sounded fairly I don't know if defiant is the word.

188
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,840
It's the videos out there. You can probably people can

189
00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:43,679
probably look it up if they want to, kind of

190
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,720
look at his whatever his body language, but he sounded

191
00:10:47,759 --> 00:10:51,879
to me almost like a disgusted tone. If that's fair

192
00:10:52,039 --> 00:10:56,200
or accurate. Over this thing. So yeah, that's that's kind

193
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:57,720
of what he said yesterday.

194
00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 1: So like his body leg which his reaction was one

195
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:06,080
you mentioned like defiance, But it sounds like he knows

196
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,759
all the details and probably has a little bit more

197
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,039
grace he said. You said he he was kind of,

198
00:11:13,759 --> 00:11:17,879
you know, disgusted by maybe. I don't know, there's a

199
00:11:17,879 --> 00:11:19,720
lot to take in there with what you just said.

200
00:11:19,799 --> 00:11:21,960
Like I'll have to go back and watch the video

201
00:11:22,039 --> 00:11:25,879
obviously and listen to it, but I guess it's no

202
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,440
wonder that Cannard Davis Junior pleaded not guilty to this situation.

203
00:11:29,519 --> 00:11:31,519
Speaker 2: There could be more details coming out here shortly.

204
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's why I even when it right after

205
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,519
it happened. I've cautioned people to not rush the judgment,

206
00:11:39,039 --> 00:11:41,399
so wait till all the facts and details come out.

207
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,440
A lot of people when they see the letters d U,

208
00:11:44,519 --> 00:11:47,879
I automatically think it was drunk driving, And yeah, it

209
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,759
wasn't as far as they you know, there's no no

210
00:11:50,759 --> 00:11:55,480
no mention of alcohol in the in the citation, it's marijuana,

211
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:59,759
so obviously that can be ingested in many different forms.

212
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,720
So yeah, I just think it's best that everybody just

213
00:12:02,799 --> 00:12:05,960
kind of wait until these details slowly trickle out and

214
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:07,480
then go from there.

215
00:12:09,279 --> 00:12:11,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot to take in, no doubt about it.

216
00:12:11,759 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 1: J Drew des red News here on esp the Fan

223
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:34,519
what do you think Cana Davis Junior is going to

224
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:39,240
be back? Any any postulation, any, any prognostication in that regard.

225
00:12:41,279 --> 00:12:43,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't have any. I did ask Kevin that

226
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,759
or I said something like safe to assume that he

227
00:12:46,799 --> 00:12:50,600
won't play Friday. That probably wasn't the best choice of word,

228
00:12:50,799 --> 00:12:53,360
you know, if you wanted a better answer, So my

229
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,960
bad on that, but that's the way I phrased it.

230
00:12:56,039 --> 00:12:59,360
And he said safe, yes, or something like that. In

231
00:12:59,399 --> 00:13:02,639
other words, yeah, yeah, he probably won't be playing Friday.

232
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,480
But he said there's a lot of stuff to be

233
00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:10,960
still be sorted out, which we just discussed so yeah,

234
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,000
who knows. I just I don't know. I just I mean,

235
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,840
obviously BYU is a different university, a different institution than

236
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,120
almost any other university in the country, with the honor

237
00:13:22,159 --> 00:13:24,919
code and that sort of thing. So yeah, it would

238
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,639
just be pure speculation on my part to guess when

239
00:13:28,639 --> 00:13:31,919
he's coming back or if he's coming back. I should

240
00:13:31,919 --> 00:13:32,639
also add.

241
00:13:33,039 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, what impact is there? So we have a couple

242
00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:41,399
of we have attrition here. We have Night Pickets, who's

243
00:13:41,399 --> 00:13:45,120
out for the season due to injury. Kepaketa has been concussed.

244
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,519
We don't know when he's going to be back. Can

245
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,440
our Davis Junior don't know what he's going to be back.

246
00:13:49,759 --> 00:13:51,799
What do you make of the roster right now? And

247
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,120
not having those three guys on the roster? How do

248
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,960
that impact? How does that impact BYU's wins and losses

249
00:13:58,000 --> 00:13:58,799
early in the season.

250
00:14:00,519 --> 00:14:03,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, it could have a huge impact. I mean, you

251
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,759
know they're gonna obviously they're already a little fin on

252
00:14:06,799 --> 00:14:10,000
the guard line, especially point guard, back up point guard

253
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,840
without Nate Pickens, so that they've been that way basically

254
00:14:12,879 --> 00:14:16,440
since the season started with Rob Wright having and being

255
00:14:16,519 --> 00:14:18,759
able to play a lot of minutes and being kind

256
00:14:18,799 --> 00:14:21,480
of an iron man and doing well at that. So

257
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,000
so Dawson Baker's kind of moved in and played a

258
00:14:24,039 --> 00:14:25,840
little bit more of that point guard. But now with

259
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,919
Canar Davis out, Dawson Baker got the start the last

260
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:34,559
two games Tuesday against Delaware and then Saturday against Yukon.

261
00:14:35,159 --> 00:14:38,799
Has done well and now so so they get the

262
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:42,600
little Finn there at that spot, kind of the two

263
00:14:42,639 --> 00:14:45,759
guard spot, and now h and now with Kevi going

264
00:14:45,799 --> 00:14:49,919
down there really really sin at center. I mean, they're

265
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,440
basically going to have to use a freshman Xavier on

266
00:14:52,519 --> 00:14:57,200
Statton that as I'm assuming he will start. I don't know,

267
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:01,480
maybe the Heilo Boskovich will start, although he's not really

268
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,360
a true center. They've got him listed as a forward.

269
00:15:04,399 --> 00:15:08,200
He's more of a perimeter player, probably more of a

270
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:13,759
power forward type player. So they're sin. It's no question

271
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:15,639
this is a really bad time to be sin too,

272
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,200
because obviously November I wrote about this a little while ago.

273
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:23,600
November is the by far a harder month than December.

274
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,679
Is all these tough games are lining up in November,

275
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,960
and to not be at full strength is really going

276
00:15:30,039 --> 00:15:32,919
to hamper there when the net rankings come out in

277
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,039
December early December. You know, it's going to hamper those

278
00:15:36,039 --> 00:15:39,720
net rankings unless they somehow pull off these wins. And

279
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,559
but it's going to be an uphill battle schedules that difficult.

280
00:15:44,879 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 1: Jay Drew desrad News, You're in a cougar beat, brought

281
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:49,120
to buy Primo golf apparel, Premo Golf apparel.

282
00:15:49,159 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 2: Dot God.

283
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:54,639
Speaker 1: Jay, As far as BA football is concerned, how optimistic

284
00:15:54,679 --> 00:15:58,440
are you that do by you can go into Nippert

285
00:15:58,559 --> 00:16:02,360
Stadium and come out and hopefully have some style points

286
00:16:02,399 --> 00:16:02,840
to boot.

287
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, at this point, I you know, I'm thinking just

288
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,919
when baby is probably the biggest sentiment that most BYU

289
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,200
fans at this point, at this juncture, you know, just

290
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,559
basically win the next two games and then kind of

291
00:16:18,759 --> 00:16:22,720
let the the you know, let what is the saying,

292
00:16:22,799 --> 00:16:25,759
let the bricks fall where they may or whatever?

293
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:29,000
Speaker 1: I can't remember that old click howeverumbles right.

294
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, and but but yeah, first things first, this is

295
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:37,360
a tough game. Cincinnati, until until Utah stomp, donhom was

296
00:16:37,519 --> 00:16:40,120
top twenty team and looking really good.

297
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 2: Uh.

298
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,919
Speaker 3: Every every indication is they're getting two key offlimpsive weapons back,

299
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,799
a running back and a receiver back who missed the

300
00:16:47,919 --> 00:16:52,000
Utah game and and the Arizona game. I think one

301
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,600
of them missed the Utah game and both of them

302
00:16:53,639 --> 00:16:57,440
missed the Earth the Arizona loss, So their offense should

303
00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,960
be a little bit better with more weapons for Brandon

304
00:17:00,039 --> 00:17:02,440
scores be so or Soresby excuse me.

305
00:17:02,879 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 2: So.

306
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just think it's gonna be a tough game.

307
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:08,240
I tell people all the time, it's hard to win

308
00:17:08,319 --> 00:17:12,359
college football games on the road, especially power forward opponents.

309
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:17,640
Everybody's got scholarship guys, everybody's got talent, everybody's got good coaches.

310
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:22,359
So these these aren't gimmes by any stretch. And obviously

311
00:17:22,759 --> 00:17:25,480
Cincinnati is gonna be pumped up. They got game day coming.

312
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,039
They're going to want to make amends for the lost

313
00:17:28,079 --> 00:17:30,640
two years ago to BYU and to the for the

314
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:34,079
loss last week to get Arizona. So and they still

315
00:17:34,079 --> 00:17:36,359
have something to play for with. You know, they're not

316
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,480
totally out of the Big Twelve championship game race yet either,

317
00:17:39,559 --> 00:17:44,839
So I expect the Hornets nets Cincinnati and and uh,

318
00:17:45,319 --> 00:17:47,519
you know, the Cougars better come out better than they

319
00:17:47,519 --> 00:17:50,480
did against Texas Tech, or it could be a long

320
00:17:50,599 --> 00:17:51,839
night for them.

321
00:17:52,519 --> 00:17:55,400

of Friday's Wisconsin BYU basketball game, and then I'll be

333
00:18:30,839 --> 00:18:35,960
