Speaker 3: Sports Radio here live in Georgetown, Kentucky at Country Boy Brewing with a huge crowd. As we get ready for Kentucky and old Miss and I have to whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa. All right, there we go. That's what we love to hear as we get started.

00:00:51
Speaker 4: I was excited.

00:00:51
Speaker 3: I don't know what that was, but let me tell you what that reception. While wonderful, it's kind of like the UK football offseason has been.

00:01:00
Speaker 5: Let's try this again.

00:01:01
Speaker 3: Welcome to Kentucky Sports Radio here live in Georgetown. There we go.

00:01:08
Speaker 5: We gotta turn the mojo around tomorrow you can give us.

00:01:10
Speaker 3: A sound of the Clark's Puppet Shop full line eight five nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven Avision Auto Glass Tex Machine is seven seven two seven seven four five two five four In this edition sponsored by the TJ. Smith Lovas. If you call TJ, he'll make them pay. Packed house here in Georgetown where you are welcome to come and join us and get ready the return of the Ryan Lemon pep talk. As soon as we stopped doing that, the football team went down. So we're bringing it back today and we are getting excited as the Cats play what I would argue could be one of their two biggest home games of the year tomorrow against Old Miss, which also if you look at the schedule, it's one of the three or four best college football games.

00:01:48
Speaker 5: It'll be on television.

00:01:49
Speaker 3: Yesterday we got Ryan Drew shinning his back from vacation. And guys, you know we're back in Georgetown City. You used to literally spit on, and now you have to because you went and met a woman here. Are you excited to be here for the show.

00:02:04
Speaker 2: Yeah.

00:02:04
Speaker 6: When Josiah played for Frederick Douglas, Scott County was kind of the rival, so I was kind of anti Scott County, but.

00:02:09
Speaker 2: Now my old lady lives in Georgetown, so I'm here every day.

00:02:12
Speaker 4: You're old lady, lady.

00:02:13
Speaker 3: Oh man.

00:02:15
Speaker 2: There were a lot.

00:02:16
Speaker 7: Of reactions out here as soon as he said old lady, I'm mean.

00:02:19
Speaker 3: To say, my beautiful old lady. That's what I'm mean to say. Hey, let me tell you something. I'm not trying like, I'm not trying to turn him into a feminist, I promise, okay, but I try to get him not to say things like old lady.

00:02:33
Speaker 5: It's impossible.

00:02:34
Speaker 3: He is stuck in Mayberry and you know he doesn't mean anything by it. Hey, well you could fix him. Well well, I don't know if your husband would like that, but nevertheless, it is. It is good to be here, Drew. Tomorrow is kind of a show me time for Kentucky football. I got a text message from a friend this morning. I woke up to this text, miss so I'm gonna read you.

00:02:57
Speaker 5: This text.

00:02:58
Speaker 3: Miss it said, Uh, could you try to be positive today on the show? I need you to make me feel better about this team. Listen, reality's gonna kick in one way soon, one way or the other.

00:03:09
Speaker 4: Soon.

00:03:10
Speaker 3: Enough, can you give us today. It's the beginning of September. For God's sake, still love you, That's what it says.

00:03:16
Speaker 5: So do you uh, do you agree with that? Is this? Can we have one day to think we're gonna win?

00:03:22
Speaker 2: Oh?

00:03:22
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's gonna be a close game. I'm not writing it off at all now. I think Old Miss is most likely to win, but I think it'll be Uh, Kentucky, You'll be in it in the fourth quarter. Kentucky should dominate the trenches on both sides of the ball. It's kind of gonna be a battle of which style takes over. If Ole Miss is getting in their tempo, you're in a little bit of trouble. But if Kentucky's playing at Mark Stoop's Iowa football, I think they'll be in at the end and that I think they have a good chance of playing that.

00:03:46
Speaker 3: Probably the way to win is exactly what they did last year. They basically they controlled tempo for a lot of the game. They kind of kept Old Miss from having big plays. We hit a big play, we gotta turnover I mean base If you look at last year, that is the exact recipe for trying to win. Uh, Shannon, you have been on the beach probably thinking about this non stop.

00:04:09
Speaker 4: Non stop.

00:04:10
Speaker 5: Do you do you think they can do it?

00:04:12
Speaker 8: I think they can. I think they The way they win is with their defense. I don't think you're gonna outscore.

00:04:18
Speaker 5: You know, well, no, they're not gonna out score.

00:04:20
Speaker 8: What I mean is if it gets into a shootout, I don't think Kentucky no chance.

00:04:23
Speaker 4: But if you could keep the game.

00:04:24
Speaker 8: You know, twenty four to twenty one, something like that, I think there's a path to where Kentucky wins. I remember a lot of people had Kentucky oh to one already going into this game.

00:04:31
Speaker 4: So let's be positive they're wan to No, come on, they can do this.

00:04:35
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. There were a lot of people.

00:04:37
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, who picked to Kentucky to loose.

00:04:40
Speaker 4: Maybe not on the show. I'm just talking about in the fan base in general.

00:04:43
Speaker 8: All I heard all summer was Toledo, Toledo, Toledo, and they beat Toledo.

00:04:47
Speaker 4: They're one to oh so let's be positive going into the game.

00:04:50
Speaker 5: I am. I mean, I'm positive.

00:04:51
Speaker 3: I guess I would say, uh, what was it Obama said to Hillary, You're likable enough, I'm positive enough, right, I'm I'm positive enough, I'm gonna do my best.

00:05:03
Speaker 5: I'm gonna go into the game. I think they have a chance.

00:05:05
Speaker 3: I don't think lane Kiffin is at his best in games where there's a lot of pressure on him. I think when he when he knows his team is gonna win, they'll rack it up, they'll score fifty.

00:05:16
Speaker 5: But if you go back and you look at big games.

00:05:19
Speaker 3: Where there's a lot of pressure on Lane Kiffin to win, their record is actually not pretty not very good. Now. Normally that wouldn't be US, but I think because they lost to US last year, and because they basically were kept out of the playoff by US last year, there is a lot of pressure on lane Kiffin. I mean, there were some old Mis fans in the bar last night for thirty Thursday Night football, and I was talking to him and they one of them said to me he'd been drinking a little bit. He said, I've given one hundred and fifty thousand dollars to Kentucky to Old Miss Football in the last two and a half years for nil. If they lose Tomuch, I'm here because if they lose Saturday, that's the last dollar they get.

00:05:58
Speaker 4: Wow.

00:05:59
Speaker 3: And I was like, Oh, can I take your picture? And he's like no. But but I thought that was an interesting comment because, by the way, that's gonna start happening across the country. People who write big checks for schools and then they don't win, they're gonna go. I ain't giving any more money if we're gonna lose. But I do think that's a thing Drew. I mean, Lane Kiffin, he loses tomorrow and then they don't make the playoff, He's not gonna lose his job. There's gonna be a lot of people say, like, all this money we've infused to Old Miss, why.

00:06:27
Speaker 5: We do it? Yeah?

00:06:29
Speaker 3: No, I know.

00:06:29
Speaker 7: We're pretty proud of Kentucky getting out of the gutter of the SEC lately, but we're still kind of known as the team you gotta beat. Every year when people get their schedule in Kentucky's on it, they still get pretty excited that that's one of their SEC opponents. And that's that's just how Ole Miss is gonna look at us this year. Times too. After losing it last year and completely being removed from the playoff conversation in September or whatever it was, they were undefeated a year ago, ranked high and right in the mix, and then you lose to Kentucky and their season went downhill from there.

00:06:55
Speaker 3: I will get I will get the negative Ryane now of the way. First, it set up for Steve Sack Steven sackham souls to come and after I announced it, I think maybe our good friends that Jaymi may have squashed that. So I'm very sorry about that. There's nothing I can do about it. He you expressed his regret, but I you know, well, I think this is the We live in a jay Andi world now, and if you don't pay them, uh, you everything will disappear from you. But that's a conversation for a different day. I still love Kentucky even without the corporate overlords, but uh, he is a big part of tomorrow. You cannot One of the things we did really.

00:07:33
Speaker 5: Well last year. It was Deane Walker's best game last year.

00:07:36
Speaker 3: If you go back and watch, we were in the backfield with old Miss most of the game. Their quarterback who's gonna who was an NFL pick, probably gonna be starting within the next few weeks. If you learn on the NFL Cover zero podcast, shut Jackson Dark, we were we were in his face last year we gotta have to do that again with what is now a less experienced quarter.

00:07:54
Speaker 6: Yell Miss just put up what sixty three points? I really feel comment our defense is not gonna let them anywhere yere close to that number, and.

00:08:01
Speaker 2: We forget last year. Shut it down. We forget last year. Ole Miss was ranked sixth.

00:08:09
Speaker 6: They was on their home field and Mark Stoops and company out coached him. They didn't turn the ball over, They converted a lot of third downs, converted some big fourth downs, kept that ole Miss offense off the field. Defense has got up do their job and do the same thing that tomorrow.

00:08:23
Speaker 4: All right, their quarterback is yes, there you go.

00:08:26
Speaker 3: All these pops he's getting You are being way too nice to him. He's good, he's gonna he's gonna make more. He's gonna start saying old lady again if you're not caring.

00:08:34
Speaker 8: Austin Simmons, their quarterback freshman, looked really good. But you know he's the type of guy that's inexperienced and if you get to him, put some pressure on him, you can force a couple of interceptions.

00:08:43
Speaker 4: He had two against George's.

00:08:44
Speaker 3: And two against Georgian. They I mean, they look they won't scored sixty three points in one. They actually started slow against them, So I mean you can, uh, you know, you can have a little bit of an impact with him. As far as Kentucky. You look at the schedule, Drew, play this game, then you play Eastern Michigan, you have a buye then you.

00:09:01
Speaker 5: Are at South Carolina and at Georgia.

00:09:04
Speaker 3: Even in your best sort of optimism, at Georgia is a game you don't feel like you can win out South of Carolina. Look, if you won, that's awesome. We have won some big games there over the years, but that's a tough one. This is your chance, I mean, this fan base, these people here, this is your chance, Drew to really buy some time for the next month. Because if you win this game and you beat Eastern Michigan, you have a buy and you could lose that game to South Carolina and Georgia and still feel like once Texas, Tennessee, Florida are coming here, you go to Bandy and Auburn, you have a shot in those games. I think this is just such a huge potential momentum for the program if you were.

00:09:46
Speaker 7: To win, and there's a lot of steak if you lose. That's why it's such a hogh stakes game. Last year in this same spot, except your favorite it's Week two, South Carolina's in ABC three point thirty. You get your butt kicked, and we saw with the fan base dead after that game, and then heck, the season spiraled down two same spot this week, a different opponent, and you're an underdog, but you're gonna go straight downhill if you don't win this. But at the same time, you have an opportunity to turn things around. So it's it's crazy how a Week two game can have such of an impact on the season. But with the way the schedule lines up.

00:10:16
Speaker 3: And because we just so folks know, because we play Louisville every year and we finished the year with this game, with the Louisville game, we're gonna be playing like a big time SEC game in Week two or Week three every year. You know, a lot of these other teams are still playing bad teams. We will get this every year because of our decision to play those games at the end of the year.

00:10:38
Speaker 8: But go ahead, Yeah, if you get this win tomorrow, you take a lot of pressure off of Stoops off the team in general. This is a game that also, I think we get the fan base all in again for a fan that's been fan base that has been very pessimistic in the offseason, and you get this one, I think it changes.

00:10:52
Speaker 4: And it's also could get you to six and six. You just need one.

00:10:55
Speaker 3: No, no, this is this is the This is not the only game that can get you sit to six. But we've talked about the path to six and six is three steaky teams, Vandy, Auburn, and then steal one. This is the one you can steal, right, This is the one that, in theory you can steal. I will tell you I often judge, so we've been doing this so long run, I often judge the state of the football program in some.

00:11:19
Speaker 5: Ways by this Country Boy Show.

00:11:21
Speaker 3: And I know that sounds weird, but I was telling somebody this a couple of days ago. This Country Boy Show is always at the same time every year. It is always right before the biggest home game of the year, so whatever, the first big home game of the year. So some years, if you remember, if you've been coming to this a long time, it's before the Florida Game. Often because we used to play the Florida game early in the year. Last year, it was before the South Carolina game. This year it's before the Old Miss game. The common denominator in all these games or all these shows has been the crowd. The crowd is great again today. Crowd's always great, you know, sometimes it's bigger than others, but it's always great. But I judge where the fan base is by the enthusiasm when you walk in here today.

00:12:05
Speaker 5: Not like during the show. You guys are always into it.

00:12:08
Speaker 3: It's fun, but like when you walk in, how many people are going here? We go right like we're winning. Last year, before this game, this place and if you may remember, the weather was terrible last year, but this place was still not only full like it is now, but there was a this is good, this is gonna be a heck of You brought Vanny Griss really the guy, right like he's gonna be what Devin Leary wasn't. This is gonna be the guy. Hey, j Ami, y'all sent four players last year.

00:12:38
Speaker 5: That helped. Maybe you should think about that, but nevertheless, that was it. This one.

00:12:43
Speaker 3: Everybody's here, but we're people a lot more reserved. I think there's a hope instead of expectation. Ryan, I think that's very a propos for where.

00:12:54
Speaker 5: The fan base is.

00:12:55
Speaker 6: I think you nailed it, and we knew when the schedule came out, we saw this game. We all said, this is the game of the year. Our fan base right now. We win this game, boom, we're all in again. We got Our fan base needs this game as much as that locker room needs this win tomorrow.

00:13:08
Speaker 3: I think, well, I do think if you win, you're back. But I would also say, Drew, a great performance can still do something for you know what. You just can't get blown out. If you get blown out and then we play Eastern Michigan next week and then there's a.

00:13:22
Speaker 5: Bye and then you play those teams.

00:13:23
Speaker 3: By the way, Mark Pope and his group are sitting right there, I had somebody who went to the workout yesterday called me and say, Matt, this is gonna be fun this year. Matt, and like, this is not somebody that's eager to get excited. So I you know, those two things, as you know, work work against each other sometimes.

00:13:42
Speaker 7: Yeah, overall too, this could be I hate to keep leaning the negative way, but this could be an eighth straight home sec loss. Eventually, people are gonna stop walking into that building. If you can't win a home game, it is not easy to.

00:13:55
Speaker 5: Go to a UK football game.

00:13:56
Speaker 7: That's not so nastally if you, I mean, if you're tailgating. May you live in Paducah, I mean, it is your whole day to go to UK.

00:14:03
Speaker 5: F Shocked how many tickets are available tomorrow.

00:14:05
Speaker 7: Just I don't even think they've released the top corners yet, just.

00:14:08
Speaker 3: Like on the open market. That that is. That is shocking to me. But again I understand. I can't get upset at people. Uh I understand, but I am a little surprised. If I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven, the text machine is seven seven two four eight two eight eight two eighty nine.

00:14:25
Speaker 5: We what did.

00:14:26
Speaker 3: I get the right one seven seven two five two five four. No, that's not my social. I don't know where I got eight two eight nine. That's not anything. Uh I promise it's not my social. Don't be interested into anything. We're gonna take a break when we come back. There's a lot of stuff going on today. The London City Council impeachment hearing is going today, is going on right now. The KSR parlay goes for week two and we'll talk a little bit about the spit gate last night, and have you all ever spit on anybody? We'll take a break and be right back. This is Kentucky Sports Radio. We go back. It is Can Tacky Sports Radio here live at Country Boy Brewing in Georgetown. Great crowd this morning, perfect day. It's supposed to be a little rainy here the rest of the day, right in the afternoon and evening.

00:15:14
Speaker 6: Yeah, rain kind of moves in I think this evening and they said it should stop though by kickoff tomorrow.

00:15:18
Speaker 2: Should be fine.

00:15:19
Speaker 5: Yes.

00:15:20
Speaker 3: By the way, bar opens tomorrow at eleven. Our pregame show starts at eleven thirty. I have a lot of you ask me what time do I need to get there. I don't really know. Just get there and I think it'll hope. We have been in prep for Old Miss Mode all week and I feel like it's gonna be good and I want to I'd love to see everybudy because remember I'm also I leave next Thursday for South Africa, so this will be the last time I'll be here till October first, so please come say hi. I may not get to see people for a game until what October fifteenth, or something starting tomorrow.

00:15:57
Speaker 7: Would still be undefeated when you get.

00:15:58
Speaker 5: Back, well, that'd be awesome.

00:16:02
Speaker 3: Since I'm gone for the South Carolina game, I'll be back for Georgia. But since I'm gone in the South Carolina game, if we come back run defeated, Shannon, I think there it'll be a different kind of thing.

00:16:10
Speaker 7: Yeah, you might need to stay gone.

00:16:11
Speaker 4: I can see that happening.

00:16:12
Speaker 5: I'm just saying, yeah, I'm trying to figure out.

00:16:15
Speaker 3: Is there is there a station in Johannesburg, South Africa that shows Kentucky Eastern Michigan football.

00:16:22
Speaker 5: Do you think there? Do you think there is one that will be showing that live?

00:16:26
Speaker 4: I'll send you off with one of my boxes.

00:16:28
Speaker 5: Okay, I made one.

00:16:29
Speaker 3: You may remember on the postgame show, a guy called and said at the game that there were two little old ladies sitting behind him who wanted them to play Grove Street or want him to play the It's a Party song, but they didn't play it and they were disappointed. They during the break came up, it's these two little old ladies right here.

00:16:48
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, give me.

00:16:49
Speaker 3: Again, all young beautiful women, I tell you what he said. So you all you have a whole lot of money. You you're ready for a party? Am I? Right? Where you're gonna get it back tomorrow is Grove Street is supposedly gonna be back for the game tomorrow.

00:17:08
Speaker 6: They had to bring it back, Like we said many times, there's the one thing we do as a fan base, we kind of have adopted. It kind of happened naturally from that South Carolina game years ago and fans missed it. You know, we all were bombarded with messages they missed not hearing it.

00:17:19
Speaker 2: At the game last week.

00:17:21
Speaker 8: I read they excuse as to why they didn't play, and I felt like it was kind of lame.

00:17:24
Speaker 5: It was a terrible excuse.

00:17:25
Speaker 4: Place that was situational, yeah.

00:17:27
Speaker 5: Which is a lot that's what's known as lye.

00:17:30
Speaker 3: Yeah. The answer was that they had made a decision to quote go more Kentucky based, which is listen, nobody, like I said, nobody loves I mean this country boy. I saw we saw Tyler Childers here just about a year ago. Like, I love Kentucky based music. But a football game should be a party, Drew, and you have to you can't just do that playing uh, you know, fiddle music.

00:17:56
Speaker 7: It wasn't just Kentucky. I mean we were one step above elevator music there for a while. I felt like I was on hold in the third quarter, waiting for something to happen.

00:18:05
Speaker 5: You're calling this is good if I'm not seven night so uh last night?

00:18:12
Speaker 3: The the Eagles and Cowboys, Uh they You know, you go back and forth, you end up with a spit this first play of the game, you end up with a spit. Guy spits on Dak press Dayling Carter spits on Dak Prescott's chest and ends up getting kicked out of the game.

00:18:31
Speaker 5: First of all, do you kick him out of the game.

00:18:32
Speaker 4: Yes, there's no room for that. You can't spin on people, spit on anybody in any situation.

00:18:37
Speaker 5: What is it that makes us hate spitting on people so much?

00:18:39
Speaker 4: It has it's bodily fluids going on somebody else?

00:18:41
Speaker 5: Is that what it is?

00:18:42
Speaker 3: Because if he hit him in the head, he gets a penalty, but he probably didn't get kicked out.

00:18:47
Speaker 4: That's another level now, But.

00:18:48
Speaker 3: There's something, there's something that people have about spitting like it doesn't hurt.

00:18:54
Speaker 5: No, he just hit him in the chest. I agree he should have been kicked out, But why.

00:18:58
Speaker 7: Do we dislike that? So much just saientence. You're you're putting your bodily fluids.

00:19:03
Speaker 3: On me and we are sharing sweat, like we're touching each other. Like look, I'm doing ryme right now. He's getting all that, he's getting all he's getting off. But that's what's happened in the football game. Why why are we so we just.

00:19:16
Speaker 7: We just can't live in the world where people are going around spit on each other. You gotta set the tone early, like our our headlines been dead last night.

00:19:23
Speaker 5: No nonsense.

00:19:24
Speaker 7: We're not gonna have a society where we're just hawking loogies and people's faces just god, and like pee on somebody's legs.

00:19:29
Speaker 3: Why the pen is a little difference, Ryan, It's gross, it's disgusting, it's vulgar.

00:19:36
Speaker 2: It's just something we've learned as a little kid. You just don't do that.

00:19:39
Speaker 6: It's just there's just no part of it in our world of sports that you can sweat on each other. You can scratch each other, but you can't spit on each other each other.

00:19:48
Speaker 3: Okay, now, at halftime they show that Dak Prescott had spit in the direction of them before that he did he didn't hit him but that he had right before the play spin on the ground in front him like you're nothing to me.

00:20:01
Speaker 5: Pooh. I don't know if he said pooh.

00:20:04
Speaker 3: But he he did pooh.

00:20:11
Speaker 5: Did he Does that make it worse? There?

00:20:15
Speaker 3: Like that justify or does it matter? Should Dak have gotten in trouble?

00:20:19
Speaker 7: I don't think Dak's innocent in the matter. He didn't spit on him. He aimed to the left. But you know, you can get a little little strass aliva with that. I think Dak did a good job in baiting Jalen Carter into the second action, which always gets people caught.

00:20:31
Speaker 5: But on the.

00:20:32
Speaker 3: Rebuilt he penalize him. You can spit at people, but not on them.

00:20:36
Speaker 2: Maybe not out of the game.

00:20:37
Speaker 7: I would be like, hey, I saw that that because he smiled, he.

00:20:40
Speaker 5: Knew what he was doing.

00:20:41
Speaker 7: Dak played off like, oh, I spit all the time.

00:20:43
Speaker 5: No, he knew what he was doing.

00:20:44
Speaker 6: You know, players spit on the football field all game long. Should he have done it? Probably not. But he didn't hit the guy. I mean, he didn't spit on the guy.

00:20:54
Speaker 5: So the on is the key part.

00:20:56
Speaker 2: That's the whole key part of it.

00:20:57
Speaker 9: Man.

00:20:57
Speaker 6: You know, like you said, he could have hit the guy and probably would have got a penalty, but he still would have played.

00:21:03
Speaker 2: You spin on the guy, you gotta get him out of here.

00:21:05
Speaker 5: So here's my question. I'm looking at the three of you.

00:21:08
Speaker 3: Have any of you, in the course of anything, ever spin on a person. Now. My answer is, first is no, I would not do that. I can't. Yeah, I've no, I don't even know if I've come close. But this is we have not talked about this. I am thinking that there's a decent chance, Shannon, that the allegedly nicest one of us, Ryan is the one with who is most likely to have spin on it. I have no basis for that. I'm just guessing that if I were to rank likelihood of spitting, I think I would rank Ryan one. Shannon to me three, Drew four. Appreciate that, but but I haven't Drew.

00:21:47
Speaker 5: I'm gonnasue you is four having that's that's what about you.

00:21:52
Speaker 8: The only scenario would be ov W and I don't think I've ever done it there, so I'm gonna say no, no.

00:21:57
Speaker 5: All right, So that gets us to the most likely one.

00:22:01
Speaker 4: Plus four hundred hundred.

00:22:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I'm playing plus one fifty undraft kings. I think it's potentially likely. Have you, in your course of your life, be honest, ever, spin on someone.

00:22:12
Speaker 6: My mom would be absolutely disown me. If I said yes, the answer is one hundred percent unequivocally no, that was.

00:22:19
Speaker 5: Not what hang on, hang on two seconds. That was not I have it. That was My mom would be mad.

00:22:25
Speaker 6: I said, unequivocally absolutely would not do that. Good.

00:22:29
Speaker 5: I'm glad to hear that. So all four of us, no spin, no spin. You just can't do that, man, all right? Behavior Yeah, yeah, they.

00:22:37
Speaker 2: Just spin on our guy in TVT last summer.

00:22:40
Speaker 5: But which one did that?

00:22:42
Speaker 2: On a hawk?

00:22:42
Speaker 7: To guy on a waku on a wako, spin on one Sistina the big fight right after I got assaulted, so they saw.

00:22:50
Speaker 5: And then they spin on sale.

00:22:53
Speaker 4: On video.

00:22:53
Speaker 5: Yeah, all right.

00:22:54
Speaker 3: If I'm nine two twenty two eighty seven, we will take your calls, be right back here in Georgetown Country Boys, Kentucky.

00:22:59
Speaker 5: Sports Radio waterbag. It is Tay Sports Radio.

00:23:04
Speaker 3: If I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven, text machine seven seven two seven to seven four and five two five four one person rights, Matt, can you give us a little more on what your friend said after watching the team work out. Well, he said a couple of things that I can't really share until you get about.

00:23:18
Speaker 5: A month in.

00:23:19
Speaker 3: But uh, like I have favorites Ryan, you know, they're just guys for whatever reason that I'm really rooting for.

00:23:28
Speaker 5: I think for this year.

00:23:30
Speaker 3: I always say I have like one adopted favorite, just a person that for whatever reason I've decided I just really am pulling for you. Antonio Rees was that way for two years. Jackson Robinson was like that for me last year. I just always really wanted to seem well do well for me. This year, that's Jayalen Lowe. For whatever reason. I think I've never even met the kid. I just have in my mind that like I really want him to do well. Part of it because we need him to do well, but part of it just I think people were like, eh, he really good enough, and I tend to want to take up for that kid. So anyway, Jalen Lowe, my guy was like, just wait, you're gonna love Jaalen Moe says. You know, it was saying I said, kind of what's he reminds you of? And he said, well, he's not really a cow kind of point guard said, imagine if like Cliff Hawkins could could really shoot. That was kind of the the what I got. I loved Cliff Hawkins during his days, and he was perfect for those Tubby teams that were so good. So really excited about him.

00:24:26
Speaker 6: You know, we've said all along when they signed him, you know, they gave him the keys to the limo. He's the guy who's gonna be driving the offense. The point guard is so important to what Pope tries to do offensively. If he can stay healthy, he's down the court, he could be have a special season.

00:24:37
Speaker 3: I did ask him, give me the one guy that's like, all right, watch out. And the answer for me, Drew was Colin Chandler. Just that you've been saying this for a while, watch out. You're gonna see a huge leap for year two. Was again, Now, it's based on one workout, so you can't get too crazy about it. But nevertheless, I liked hearing it's.

00:24:54
Speaker 7: Gonna know, everybody's been copying off my homework. I'm expecting a huge jump from him. The thing I'm most excited about, and this is just very recent because he's only been here a little bit. But with Yellovich. I wasn't sure if he was gonna be ready to go right away or this guy needs a year. And even though it's been a couple hours of working out, he's at least fitting in so far, and it's looking like more towards this guy is gonna get some minutes. Not so much on the end of the bench, not ready for college.

00:25:19
Speaker 3: It has sounded like I wouldn't expect him to come in and start ala this dude right here who said that yesterday, But I do expect.

00:25:26
Speaker 5: Him to get minutes. Uh.

00:25:28
Speaker 3: One more thing from the Eagles game last night. You know there's a long delay because of lightning reports. Where this morning Channon that in the lightning delay, the Cowboys were given excuse me, the Eagles were given energy drinks and protein bars. The Cowboys were giving h cold cuts and uncrustables.

00:25:48
Speaker 4: That's on the Cowboys. I don't they have trainers that are supposed to.

00:25:51
Speaker 3: Do They knew but that they requested cold cuts and uncrustables.

00:25:55
Speaker 5: Do you think that is good mid game?

00:25:59
Speaker 8: Energy and crustabules are the one thing that I ate on my fifty mile walk, so you know it's it's it's easy.

00:26:05
Speaker 5: What is it.

00:26:06
Speaker 4: It's like just peanut butter and jelly sandwich basis.

00:26:08
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, but they're really good.

00:26:10
Speaker 4: But it sounds like the energy drink it's round, okay, Yeah, it's not like the energy drinks helped the Eagles.

00:26:16
Speaker 5: Yeah, they won the game.

00:26:17
Speaker 3: Well, neither team really scored much after it, but they did win the game. But we'll give them the option.

00:26:21
Speaker 7: I'm going to the Cowboys locker room a hundred times out of the I don't need your monster energy. Where the uncrustable. You want an uncrustable?

00:26:28
Speaker 2: A right?

00:26:28
Speaker 5: Fair enough? Who's up first? Rick?

00:26:30
Speaker 3: Adam is up first?

00:26:31
Speaker 5: Adam, go ahead at him?

00:26:33
Speaker 10: Hey, what's up guys? Two things. One interesting betting line this week. It started at not and a half Kentucky as the underdog went up and the half. Now I think it's back down to eight and a half, so it has the little money on.

00:26:49
Speaker 3: The money has moved to Kentucky pretty heavily in like the last twenty four hours, and it's it's rare to see. It's rare to see after week one. Money moves really all over the place, but it's rare to see after week one that you see a two point move this late in the week.

00:27:06
Speaker 5: I don't know.

00:27:06
Speaker 3: I mean, probably nobody knows nothing and they're just guessing, but it is it is Drew different.

00:27:12
Speaker 5: Yeah, it came out.

00:27:13
Speaker 7: I mean I was still in the press box last Saturday when it came out at nine and a half, and I even said to people around me, Oh, this is this is a little low. I think it's gonna jump. I think it even got up to eleven and a half on Monday or Tuesday. I didn't expect it to fall to where it has. So I don't know if it's a lot of people thinking maybe the Kentucky in the Toledo game not trying to overreact, or they're considering last year's Kentucky oll Miss game. But there's been a lot of late Kentucky action.

00:27:36
Speaker 3: Well, I've told you I'm really big on when people put too much stock in Week one. Used to be that in college football, Week two was a really good week. Like games like Texas Ohio State, those used to be those used to be played in Week two, and now they're being played in Week one. There's actually not a lot of great games. But for instance, you're gonna hear when when we do our KSR PARTLA. I have a game I really like because I think people overreact to Week one. I don't know, maybe people think that maybe there's the betters initially overreacted to Kentucky not playing well Ryan against Toledo, or at least on paper not well.

00:28:15
Speaker 6: I mean if you look at Kentucky's defense, I mean, that would be one thing I think would make you a little more optimistic that they can keep the keep Kentucky in the game tomorrow.

00:28:21
Speaker 2: So maybe that's what's opening up some eyes.

00:28:23
Speaker 3: Yeah, if I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven, who's next? Chester is up next?

00:28:28
Speaker 5: Oh? Here we go?

00:28:29
Speaker 3: Now this is that this maybe what UK football needs is a motivational speech here from Chester.

00:28:34
Speaker 5: So let's hear it.

00:28:36
Speaker 9: Hey, Matt, appreciate you taking my call. Listen, I don't I don't have I don't know by way of motivational speech, but I did just with sitting here. I wanted just to say something to the fans out there that have been pessimistic just a bit.

00:28:51
Speaker 11: Listen.

00:28:52
Speaker 9: I want to encourage everybody to come out there tomorrow. And we do not know, we do not know really what we got just yet. And I still believe that this is the We have the potential to have a great year, and it all comes down to tomorrow, A lot of it does. I mean, if we win tomorrow, then everybody's gonna start changing the story around here about this program. There's still a lot of unknowns. And I want to say this, whether there's any kind of music or whatever they got mooji cams on the screens or whatever that listen, that should not offense as kent Turkey football fans. If they broad here, we should just tell them, hey, turn the music off, the turn the screens off, and we should come in there, Lord of for Bear, ready to bring the energy, ready to be the ones that fire this team up. Because I've been in there, and we've all been in there. When we're yelling on first down and second down like we do on third down and fourth down, that place has a different feel. And whatever you think about football in Kentucky, just look down there tomorrow and see Lane kipping down there. That should be all that you need to know that we need to come in there with everything we got support these boys, support Stoops, and man, what else have we got? What else we gotta do? I mean, we still have a chance to be relevant right now. We Alabama's lost, we haven't lost. We've got a chance to make a special season. But we need to get everybody out there fired up tomorrow.

00:30:20
Speaker 3: I love it, Chester you very much. I appreciate the call. Yeah, I agree with I agree with everything he said. Look, I mean, what at this point, whatever's gonna happen tomorrow is gonna happen. So why not do chinning whatever our part can be, Why don't we do it tomorrow?

00:30:36
Speaker 8: Yeah, I agree with him and saying, we really don't know what we got yet. The running backs look great.

00:30:40
Speaker 4: Oh, line look good. D line look good. But we really don't know what we got just yet. But we're gonna find out tomorrow.

00:30:46
Speaker 3: We will find And he is right about one thing. We've talked a lot about, Well, what happens if things don't go out. Let's talk about what happens if things do go well. Okay, let's just say you were to win tomorrow, and let's look at it a little bit differ. First of all, it would be a win, that would be one of If we beat Ole Miss for the second year in a row, we'll be the second biggest story in college football. Tomorrow. Besides whoever wins Oklahoma Michigan, whoever wins Oklahoma Michigan's probably number one, this would probably be number two. So start with that, you get a great bit of positive talk about the UK football program. Next you play Eastern Michigan, you win, you'll be three and zero and you'll get a bye week, and you'll have a chance now to go into a South Carolina game where chances are they will be undefeated. You'll have a game that will probably be be if not prime time in the afternoon on ABC at South Carolina in a game that let's just say you want, I'm not saying you will, but listen, we can dream. Right Then you'll go play Georgia in a game that could get College Game Day if both teams are undefeated, and all of a sudden, whether you win that game or not, you're sitting there and looking going, wait a minute, we've got Florida and Tennessee and Lexington, right, we got Fandy.

00:32:05
Speaker 5: We can have as many fans as they do, and you have.

00:32:07
Speaker 3: A completely different outlook about UK football. That can all happen Drew tomorrow. I'm not saying it's gonna happen, but it can, and it's right there. If Mark Stoops and those guys want to change the narrative, tomorrow is the day to do it.

00:32:23
Speaker 7: I like that a lot of optimism in there.

00:32:25
Speaker 2: I'll have a little und of applause. That's a good little rant.

00:32:27
Speaker 4: Oh that is six and six matters right there?

00:32:29
Speaker 3: No, no, no, wait a minute, let me say that you win tomorrow.

00:32:34
Speaker 5: I mean there's a seven and.

00:32:35
Speaker 3: Five eighty four. I mean, look, man, Tennessee and Florida that we're gonna also be playing at home are no better than Old Miss. If you win those games, there's no reason you can't be competitive in those games. I mean, I think Kentucky only has two games on their schedule that like, I don't care what they do.

00:32:55
Speaker 5: They're probably not winning, right Georgia and Texas.

00:32:58
Speaker 3: But everything else. Those teams are not crazy, Ryan.

00:33:01
Speaker 6: They're not beat on Miss last year on their home field, beat South Carolina recently, what five years in a row? Of course they can do it.

00:33:08
Speaker 3: Just for the record, do not post that on social media. I'm not getting a second year of this. You're not posting. I know that that one's a radio only. I'm not letting that go viral. Across college football for the second year in a row. Yeah, we're not doing that now. How many of you ever listened to the games on the radio or listen to the pre and post game show on JMI. Okay, all right, so if you have, you've heard me do this commercial way too much. They play it every commercial break free commercial break, you know, the one where I'm like, for all, y'all like and that's not even how I talk.

00:33:46
Speaker 5: And uh so, UK Freederal Credit Union, I'm.

00:33:50
Speaker 3: Gonna change it up a little bit because even I'm tired of hearing my voice.

00:33:53
Speaker 2: I think you need to leave the y'all y'all in that's okay.

00:33:55
Speaker 3: There's some myths floating around about UK Federal Credit Union. Let's bust them, okay, yours, Yes, that you got to be part of the UK to join.

00:34:03
Speaker 5: Bust it.

00:34:04
Speaker 3: Myth two joining as an ordeal, bust it. And myth three that you can't do it right now seven local branches online under three minutes, whether you wear your blue or wide or not, because at UK Federal Credit Union.

00:34:15
Speaker 5: Or not, just for some I guess I have to do it. We're for all, y'all.

00:34:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, Eligibility required federally insured by NCUA. It's the UK Federal Credit Union. We'll take a break. Be right back this SCSA. Where back it is Kentucky Sports Radio A five nine two eight twenty two eighty seven The Text Machine seven seven two seven seven four five two five four. All right, I want to give you all some uh Sometimes people say, you know, Matt, you recommend these books and they're long, and I don't read books, but everybody can read, uh, things that aren't very long. I'm gonna give you two stories tonight that as you're getting ready tomorrow's all football. Don't be reading anything tomorrow. I see you right there, sir, you're wanting to read tomorrow. You don't be reading anything tomorrow.

00:34:58
Speaker 5: Okay, but tonight you might be bored.

00:35:01
Speaker 3: Let me give you two stories that I guarantee you, every one of you, every single person, would enjoy. I don't care your background or what your philosophies of life are. Let's start with the one I read yesterday during dinner. That's about somebody from Kentucky. You've probably heard us talk about the story about the dude, the guy who lived in Smithland, Kentucky, who he and another guy tortured a dude in New York to try to get his crypto passwords.

00:35:25
Speaker 5: Have you heard about this guy? It's a wild story.

00:35:28
Speaker 3: Basically, this dude in Smithland who lived in like this mansion, like ten thousand square feet acre or whatever, I don't know, mansion in Smithland, Kentucky. He got into crypto. He was like, that's Livingston County. I believe he got into crypto and he met a guy from Florida. Long story short, They get a condo, so they had a place in Smithland. A lot of this story takes place in Smithland. They would bring people to Livingston County who had like crypto, a lot of money in crypto, and like the allegation is they might try to like kidnap them in Livingston County and try to get them to give them their passwords and all this stuff. And one time they almost got caught, so they decided to move to New York and.

00:36:14
Speaker 5: Do it in New York City againstead.

00:36:15
Speaker 3: They end up getting caught in New York because this Italian guy runs out of the house like almost naked.

00:36:20
Speaker 5: He says, they're torturing me. The story is wild. It is wild.

00:36:25
Speaker 3: It is in New York Magazine and it's a lot of it is in Kentucky and in Livingston County he was having. Dude was having like crazy parties and flying in models from all over the country and flying in crypto guys and then like holding them hostage in Livingston. There's only Livingston County. Ryan, It's wild.

00:36:45
Speaker 6: This is the only time that we've ever even mentioned Livingston County on the show.

00:36:48
Speaker 3: I have a heart time fregion name where it is, and literally the two main places. So it's in New York Magazine. It's called like torturing a crypto guy or whatever, but one of them is from Kentucky, and the two main places are New York City and Livingston County. Second story, it just broke this morning. I was reading it while eating my breakfast. Did you see the story about the Navy seals and the and the North Korea thing? This just came out this morning, And like Shannon, this is the kind of thing that happens in movies that I didn't think happened in real life. So I guess in twenty nineteen, the I guess who was President tru the Trump administration at the time. They wanted to plant Like I guess, I don't know, what do you call it? Surveillance things in North Korea. So they send the navy seals to North Korea to like, I don't know, run onto the shores, plant something and leave. They come in in vessels. As they're about to get like do it, a boat seas them and they feel like their cover is blown. You got this is in the New York Times this morning. You gotta read this story. They end up this is kind of awful. Ram Paul's already complaining about this. They end up seizing the ship. It's just like people fishing kill the people on the ship because.

00:37:58
Speaker 5: Their cover has been blown.

00:38:00
Speaker 3: And then I'm not gonna say what it is to gross people out, but then like bury them out at sea so they'll never be I don't know, and then so they'll never be caught. And I guess one of the seals, maybe uh has has has told the story.

00:38:12
Speaker 5: You gotta read.

00:38:13
Speaker 3: Those two stories are two of the wildest things. And sometimes you sit and think, yeah, these movies, this couldn't happen in real life.

00:38:19
Speaker 5: And Shannon, both of these stories read like movies.

00:38:22
Speaker 4: I will read both of those.

00:38:23
Speaker 8: I'm trying to figure out which one is more fascinating the guy getting tortured over crypto.

00:38:27
Speaker 5: The Crypto one is long and much better.

00:38:30
Speaker 3: But in terms of whoa you mean that happens the New York Times one maybe even more crazy.

00:38:35
Speaker 4: I feel bad for those people. Yeah, they were just wrong plays, wrong time in life.

00:38:39
Speaker 5: They were just fishy and then all of a sudden and then like you.

00:38:42
Speaker 3: Know, I don't know how they it's come out, but it just came out this morning.

00:38:45
Speaker 5: Who's up next?

00:38:46
Speaker 2: Trey is next?

00:38:47
Speaker 5: Trey? Go ahead, Tray.

00:38:50
Speaker 11: Hey Man, got a couple of points to make. I just don't get all the fans that are cheering for Soups to fail. I don't know, straight Bowl games and one two ten win seasons and three or four years.

00:39:05
Speaker 5: Do you think fans are rooting?

00:39:07
Speaker 3: I don't think fans are rooting for him to fail. Do you think fans are rooting? I mean, I think like we would all. Who do you think is out there going I hope we lose tomorrow?

00:39:18
Speaker 11: Well they might not be that, but I don't know. It seems like to me of like all the Twitter comments and all that I see, I don't know I see I think I think I see it.

00:39:27
Speaker 4: I mean, Twitter is all negative.

00:39:29
Speaker 5: But that is Twitter.

00:39:30
Speaker 3: But that's also But even for the negative people on Twitter, that's just people commenting on what they think happens. I don't think Kentucky fans want.

00:39:39
Speaker 5: Stoops to lose. You're saying they're rooting for him to fail. I don't think that's true.

00:39:45
Speaker 11: Well, it's more so. I guess it's not appreciating what he's done in the past or whatever, and not thinking Bowl games are a good thing to celebrate or anything.

00:39:56
Speaker 3: Well, I appreciate the call Ryan to me or Drew there's to me, both of you. There are two different issues here. There's appreciating what Stoops did in the past. We all appreciate. Does anybody not appreciate what Stoops did in the past? I think what you could give him around.

00:40:08
Speaker 5: Of course we've done, of course we did. What he's done here has been amazing.

00:40:12
Speaker 3: Then there's a different question of are we set up to do well in the future, right?

00:40:16
Speaker 5: I think those are two completely different circumstances.

00:40:18
Speaker 6: And I think that's why this is such a big season. I mean, last year last year was such a we were excited about. The season was kind of such a leaddown. They've got to start winning sec home game. They've got to bring that attitude back where he's got a chip on his shoulder and get that that mean mug back. That's the mark Stoops I want to see on the sideline the rest of the season.

00:40:34
Speaker 7: I won't say there's fans that want him to lose, but Stoops has one thing working against him with some of the fan base. And his name's John Sumrall, and there's a group that's very worried about missing that opportunity for what could be a guy that could take you through another door and be here a long time. I don't know that they want they're gonna be for old miss tomorrow, but there's a group that wants this over in a hurry to not miss him if he wasn't there. I don't think those people are as negative they are. There's a lot of people that don't want to miss him.

00:41:00
Speaker 5: If he becomes available.

00:41:01
Speaker 3: And every time a Southern team struggles, people are like, what if some are I were to come to coach in Alabama?

00:41:07
Speaker 5: Like they start they start worrying about that stuff.

00:41:10
Speaker 7: I do think his name just keeps getting hotter and hotter.

00:41:12
Speaker 3: You do hear that A lot who's up next. Jake is next, Jake, go ahead, Jake.

00:41:19
Speaker 7: Hey, Matthew, how are you doing this this morning?

00:41:22
Speaker 3: Sir?

00:41:22
Speaker 7: I'm doing that a little bit more positive.

00:41:26
Speaker 5: That's right.

00:41:26
Speaker 3: Well, I got thirty seconds, so you make it as positive as you can.

00:41:30
Speaker 7: All right, Then I got I got a seven and five and this is and and I got the ole misses is the uh is the one that we we get seven with.

00:41:41
Speaker 3: All right, Well see you got us winning tomorrow, yes, sir? All right, well that's more positive. He's usually pretty negative. I like I like positive. Uh, Jake, who's the key player tomorrow?

00:41:52
