00:01:47
Speaker 1: Oh, I thought I said it, You know you said it. Yeah, who are you.

00:01:54
Speaker 3: I'm gonna ride with Nebraska.

00:01:56
Speaker 2: Love it. Sure.

00:01:58
Speaker 4: The only thing that I'm worried about is what you're taking. What just happened He refused to say Michigan. That's like not shaking hands before the game. That doesn't turn out so well. Sometimes that kind of scared me right there. I am leaning Nebraska.

00:02:12
Speaker 2: Okay, gee, mikes him.

00:02:15
Speaker 5: I'm gonna take the over in this game.

00:02:18
Speaker 2: That's that's the pacification of America that I'm taking Nebraska.

00:02:24
Speaker 1: Good, he's in that, Willie tab.

00:02:26
Speaker 6: I'm taking the under. Same answers, that's not the same answer.

00:02:34
Speaker 2: You're taking the under in this.

00:02:36
Speaker 1: On the the prophet boost token. Will or Taylor.

00:02:44
Speaker 6: Right now, it's Nebraska. It's it's level change.

00:02:48
Speaker 1: Based on what you know, what will That's that's why what is this based on what's the spread right now?

00:02:55
Speaker 2: Three and a half, which it has been since the summer.

00:03:00
Speaker 1: Buddy, I showed you the screenshot zoom in.

00:03:03
Speaker 2: When I saw that tweet, I thought, I know I place this bet in June.

00:03:09
Speaker 7: I got him so at three and a half to Michigan.

00:03:12
Speaker 2: Three and a half to Michigan. But I think at this point right now it's a rival with game.

00:03:15
Speaker 1: Let's just maybe it's moved.

00:03:17
Speaker 2: There are records at the window inver game like for me, I mean, I believe this is a double digital win for Michigan just from a mental standpoint. You see how the fan base is already acting. Right, But I'll be taking Michigan money line because the last thing you want is to be a close game and then be upset you lost as much money on about the bet.

00:03:32
Speaker 1: I'm taking Nebraska minus two and a half. What I would like to do is no, that's just what I'm taking.

00:03:37
Speaker 7: Oh you took it minus Nebraska minus two and a half.

00:03:39
Speaker 1: I will whenever it's available right now. The alternate lines are not available, I'll.

00:03:42
Speaker 2: Probably move now at one and a half. Oh, the game is now at one and a half Michigan. This is a pick them, dang, because Phil's three and a half.

00:03:51
Speaker 7: I was honestly gonna move it and do Nebraska plus six and a half. But now it's a pick them.

00:03:58
Speaker 2: If you're looking at the promo happening on VANDU the Willer Taylor, which one are you claiming? And it's like they know to know.

00:04:08
Speaker 7: This last week has just shattered my I'm just I'm everywhere with college football right now.

00:04:13
Speaker 2: For those of you who not just here for the bust and Bowl, we do have to give teas and ps to jackmar Fierson and JP Hovey. They went through a lot, They went through a lot this weekend. So thoughts and prayers with them and their family.

00:04:24
Speaker 7: Yeah, thank you, I guess for the sake of this and in this moment, similar to Jack, I'll take Nebraska, but I could go either way by the end of the week.

00:04:34
Speaker 2: Fun opportunity to see the boys on socials. Basically you're saying, follow your socials. Yeah, exactly, you'll find out who you're taking Saturday morning. Exciting stuff. Listen, this is the biggest rivalry trophy game in sports. People know it, people are aware of it. The Commissioner of College Football, Josh Pate, he'll be talking about it the people at ESPN this Thursday. Whether they like it or not, they're gonna be talking about it.

00:04:59
Speaker 7: This is a game.

00:05:00
Speaker 2: This is a is is Michigan going to be who we think they can be? And is Nebraska finally going to turn the page towards better pastors? This is a big defining game for both teams. Before we get into the hate, the animosity, the back and forth, all of it, it is our special boys birthday week. Let's give him around of applause, and instead of waiting till Friday, when I can only assume my CT brain will say something that hits will the wrong way that I don't mean it, but maybe I do mean it, and I want to backtrack, but I can't backtrack. So instead of getting to a point of animosity and the gift doesn't feel as good, I think it's only good right now that I do this on Monday morning, giving you your birthday gift.

00:05:45
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but you're really throwing me off with that one. What I was going to say, is we are postponing my birthday until this game is over, because this birthday means nothing unless the Huskers get a w nothing.

00:05:58
Speaker 2: Right, So your first gift, I have two gifts. My boy's a big fan of two different franchises. The first gift I got Will Compton for his thirty six birthday.

00:06:11
Speaker 1: Thirty six I will be thirty six.

00:06:12
Speaker 2: Man is a first edition print hardcover copy of Jurassic Park. This book. Something about this book. So what I was told about this book is is there's like first edition copies and then there and then there's befour first edition copies as well, where they essentially send them to the bookstore and the bookstore reads it and they say, oh, we like this book. This is how many copies we want. This is that version of that book.

00:06:43
Speaker 5: Very u.

00:06:44
Speaker 2: It's in great condition as well, the.

00:06:48
Speaker 7: Well over over under one hundred and thirty pages. You think you're That's what the line is said at.

00:06:53
Speaker 1: Oh me reading it?

00:06:54
Speaker 7: Yeah over a right.

00:06:56
Speaker 2: I'll knock this book not so fast, my friend. Because keeping the same theme, because I know my boy every every new year wants to read a little bit more, I got him a first edition Star Wars George Lucas Star Wars book and if you go to the front page signed, this book is signed now George Lucas Lucas.

00:07:26
Speaker 1: Let me look here.

00:07:27
Speaker 2: Now, what I will say about this book is it's not just about the franchise. You think about Little Ruined, Little Scottie. Someday Will Coffon is going to leave this earth, and he will. I don't know what he has to pass down to his kids. He might lose it all this weekend after the Bust and bull. So I want him to have some things to give to his children when he's over, and I feel like this is one of those things Will and his will.

00:07:52
Speaker 1: Hey, these are awesome. Thank you.

00:07:53
Speaker 2: You're very welcome.

00:07:54
Speaker 1: Thank you.

00:07:57
Speaker 2: Thanks guys, thank you. I put a lot of that was a lot of put into that. Let's talk about college football. Michigan Nebraska. Listen, they both did really well against their opponents. Bryce Underwood, you see that the game plan, that's the game plan. That's the game plan new Us. If you want to be successful in this era of college football, you can't run the ball. In thirty and six versus Oklahoma and Oklahoma they learned a valuable lesson. I feel really good about that Nebraska. I think they're like number one pass defense in all of college football right now. They're up. They're up there in several categories. Let's look past who they played, Let's look past that. I think the record they played against is like two and six. But they look good. Dylan Mayl looks good. He needs more on national notoriety. If he takes over this win and he plays well, I think he's gonna get it.

00:08:41
Speaker 1: I think he needs to be in the Heisman conversation. I bet, I mean yeah, I look at him statistically, I say that, you know, with the fullhard zero bias. Right.

00:08:50
Speaker 2: Houston Christian and Akron were the last two teams they played. Let's let's talk about the game of the weekend, which unfortunately was Georgia tennis. My my feeling of a jack was, it's twenty one seven. You're feeling really good. Joey Aigiler is the guy, you know. Twenty four hours after this game takes place, you say, his head coach gets fired. Nico is in an absolute blender over there in Pasadena, California. But get to the end of the game, you guys kind of forget how to play football a little bit. Gunnar Stockton. They they did what they said he'd do. They kept at vanilla, and all of a sudden, this dude is ripping it all over the yard, hitting it vertical. Talks about them like taking long sustaining drives, and it's like they just really put their put their meat on the table and handled it. That kicker, That kicker, to me, is like you saw it in his face before the kick, and I know you were there. Were you there? You weren't there, so you saw the TV copt you could see the kicker mentally in a blender. I'll i'll I digress. I'll let you have your words.

00:09:52
Speaker 6: I mean, everyone's expecting some long drawn out, pissed off speech. I have a few things written down.

00:10:03
Speaker 2: Titans charger, you you said most of it.

00:10:06
Speaker 6: I mean, Joey Aguilari is the guy that that's a very positive key from the game and so far the season. I mean, three hundred and seventy plus yards Chris Brazil, he was truly unguardable. He had one hundred and seventy seven yards three TVs. It felt like old Tennessee football. Nyland was rocking. Um Yeah, dude, game winner. You just gotta you just gotta hit the kick. You just gotta hit the kick. And we folded in the end, and to lose an overtime sucks. But I don't know if I'm ready to say this out loud, but like it's something that people are talking about, and I will eventually get there. I think I just need like twenty four more hours to really let it all just feel. Yeah, but Tennessee can't play with anyone in the country. That was shown. Can they win though, with anyone in the country. Who knows? But we we just got some big games we gotta win coming up. There's never been like a positive atmosphere after a loss like this. I mean this is truly one of, like probably the hardest losses for Tennessee fans that has ever existed. I mean, nine in a row is brutal and against Georgia and Kirby smarts out there on the field afterwards, like, oh, we didn't play our best game, and like, of course, like what you could coach speak, like what are you gonna say, like, yeah, like they should have won that game. No, but Joey Aguilar is a dog. Uh, we have weapons. And then there's a lot of confidence around the team It's just like sucks when it's so close right there. I mean, so many opportunities and you just gonna.

00:11:45
Speaker 2: Hit that kick.

00:11:46
Speaker 6: And then Gilbert goes out in overtime, it hits the exact same kick, and then first play of ot for Georgia twenty one yard rush. It's already over. So yeah yeah, and then the Titans say, hold on, you know how good.

00:12:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll we'll come back to you on that.

00:12:05
Speaker 6: I don't know much say about Titans.

00:12:07
Speaker 2: Does it make you feel a little bit better that maybe George like either Tennessee is really good or maybe George is not the powerhouse, like a little more.

00:12:15
Speaker 6: You almost want Georgie to be a powerhouse, so that loss means something you don't want Georgia like go and take a bad loss because you're like, oh wow, Tennessee they couldn't even give an overtime. So again, there's positives to come from the game. I just can't find them in my heart.

00:12:31
Speaker 1: What you guys have a dog at receiver?

00:12:34
Speaker 6: Yeah, Chris Brows is sick. Mike Matthews is great. Running backs are great, just you know, you just got to clean it up.

00:12:41
Speaker 2: Your line protected real well all day.

00:12:43
Speaker 1: But that.

00:12:46
Speaker 2: Crazy kill.

00:12:47
Speaker 6: That's I mean, you can place the boy on a lot of people, but yeah, that false start hurts. It definitely backs him up. That kicker is I just saw a tweet. It looks like or I would say, uh, Tennessee's kicker looks like he's about to go storm the beaches of Normandy and so he should have died there if he was there. But I I truly feel bad for him walking pedestrian walkway, which is like our main strip in Knoxville today because there are some crazy Tennis Sea fans way crazier than me. They would like physically assault that guy if they saw him on campus. So I really hope that he's gotten a little bit of sleep because you just can imagine. I haven't imagine. He has like a huge test this week in school, like you know, student athlete, student first, you're fucked.

00:13:38
Speaker 7: You can't even take it.

00:13:39
Speaker 2: So you can't even take the test in class, get in the bus, can't sit here?

00:13:42
Speaker 6: Yeah not here, man eat alone.

00:13:45
Speaker 2: God I for his mental I really hope. So, yeah, there was a story that will references a lot a lot about my college days. This kid, the long Snapper, like twenty fifteen, had a bad snap against Michigan State. We're to win the game. They end up, you know, messing it up in Michigan State falls in the ball scorts touchdown. That kid had to transfer because he was getting death threats. Like that's the kind of.

00:14:10
Speaker 5: Against Auburn that kid never even seen or heard of him.

00:14:12
Speaker 2: Again, Yeah right, he might be dead locked. They got just locked up somewhere.

00:14:21
Speaker 1: It's I felt bad for you. I felt bad for Tennessee fans for it to be and kneeling too, Like, you guys did everything you possibly could to deserve and win that game. Gunner stocked and showed up, the receiver room took off, and then that's.

00:14:36
Speaker 2: What Pet would say. Pet kept talking about the perimeter players on Georgia, like if you give him an opportunity, they're going to take advantage. Yeah. I think it was an awesome game.

00:14:46
Speaker 1: You guys, one shots down field, the explosives.

00:14:49
Speaker 2: You guys hit, the game plan to win the game.

00:14:51
Speaker 1: Yeah.

00:14:51
Speaker 6: The thing that makes me the most upset is like I can't enjoy how good of a college football game that is because of my bias. But like, truly that matches up with Tennessee Alabama in twenty twenty two, like it just didn't go our way, and most likely if we hit that kick Kneeland, they're storing the field, which I did not want, but I would have I would have been thrilled about it. But here we are, well Tennessee, We're gonna move on, and it's there's confidence in the program. We just gotta clean stuff up.

00:15:22
Speaker 1: Is there confident? Or you had something else? I just had one thing.

00:15:25
Speaker 2: Do you from a silver lining standpoint, do you feel good that you called it called? I mean you said the whole week? Okay, No, I'm just saying I don't.

00:15:37
Speaker 1: Know why you looked at me.

00:15:39
Speaker 2: You're seeing you're seeing that you saw the called it? Thank you? Taylor. Well, I don't know. You kept saying he said that Thursday night, said Wednesday morning.

00:15:46
Speaker 6: So I am one hundred percent taking Nebraska this week. One hundred percent.

00:15:50
Speaker 7: Now, yeah, I tried to.

00:15:53
Speaker 1: It was in the first chinks.

00:15:54
Speaker 6: It didn't work.

00:15:57
Speaker 1: It was just onward. Is there speaking of confidence? Is their confidence? Is there is their confidence with South Carolina? JP?

00:16:09
Speaker 2: You know you know JP? You know feels good?

00:16:13
Speaker 1: What was that thirty one seven? Yeah? I do wish? Uh Lawrence or Leonora Sellers was healthy, he gets taken out, but even even if he's even if he's playing, Vanderbilt seem to put a good show on that South Carolina defense.

00:16:28
Speaker 7: Definitely, Vanderbilt's game plan was awesome. Running the play clock down to one before you snap the ball every single dry, every single play exhausting. Exhausting is the exhausting as a fan, exhausting as a coach, exhausting as a player. Like it because it makes the game kind of boring to watch too, regardless of if you're a fan of either team, but it works and you know why they do it. They also have a lot of really good players, players they haven't had in the past. But to your Cad, Cad was balling, he was I tearrord. Caden immediately sends me a selfie in the locker room with one of his teammates, which is too hard emojis, I say, Kate McConnell is want to know in Kate McConnell eight weeks But dude, it was the only time I ever have a problem with South Carolina is when I feel like the team isn't playing inspired and energetic and like they want to be out there, and I just I felt like when Sellers went out, guys were not flying around how they flew around in the first two games. And that's the only part. All I asked for from players is effort. Every play. You can make mistakes, you can make it. You could have the worst game of your life. But if you're trying and you're giving it, you're all I'm in. I'm okay with the loss. Yeah, But with all that being said, I gotta recalibrate my approach to the year. Are we gonna go eleven and one?

00:17:57
Speaker 3: We could?

00:17:59
Speaker 7: Does this make the story of the season that much better?

00:18:03
Speaker 1: It does?

00:18:04
Speaker 7: But we gotta focus on Monday. We gotta focus on Tuesday. We gotta focus on Missouri. I'm thinking we're not gonna see Luke Dody at quarterback this week going into Missouri because I think Sellers is out again. Aaron Nolan, Ohio State's backup last year, is on our team. There's a reason we got him in the portal. So I'm hopeful because I know we got guys, I know we got dogs, and I know the coaching staff. I hate the doomsday South Carolina fans. Shane Biemer is the fastest coach to thirty wins in program history. He beat Spurrier, he beat Lou Holtz. He's the guy. I trust the staff, and I just I need the fan base to do the same.

00:18:43
Speaker 3: How do you feel about that?

00:18:44
Speaker 8: Like targeting call that got call or they blew the whistle after they snapped the ball.

00:18:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he was.

00:18:55
Speaker 7: Which done like it can change the game. And it was frustrating because I also feel about for the Vandy kid. I feel like it should have been more of maybe a roughing the passer than a targeting. But man, that was I understand why Beamer was so pissed because and if you're a backup quarterback, Yeah, they had five ten minutes, bro. And then we did get to a little bit of peak of Nick Harbor returning a kick. I don't know if y'all saw it, but he took it from the very back of the end zone and just range straight to the fifty yard line, like striding. I'd stand up off the.

00:19:31
Speaker 2: Couch, like standing off the couch.

00:19:34
Speaker 7: He about to go all the way right now. But because we've been waiting to see that, everybody has.

00:19:40
Speaker 1: It's gonna be tough too.

00:19:41
Speaker 7: Yeah, Missouri's good.

00:19:42
Speaker 2: It's a good ball club, is it in Missouri. Yeah, that's a good ball club.

00:19:45
Speaker 7: But that's the best part about the SEC schedule, about we get you have so many opportunities turn your season around, and it can all change. On one Saturday, we went we beat Missouri. This game doesn't matter, It's on to the next. We have momentum all of a sudden.

00:19:59
Speaker 2: Do you think we all kind of.

00:20:03
Speaker 1: I don't know.

00:20:04
Speaker 2: Do we think we underestimated Vanderbilt this year?

00:20:07
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. I think could be. They could be.

00:20:10
Speaker 7: I couldn't.

00:20:12
Speaker 1: I think there's still I think we still have to see more from Vanderbilt more. Here's why. Here's why because between Vanderbilt South Carolina and then they had another common opponent with Virginia Tech. You have Virginia Tech playing South Carolina tough in Atlanta. That was an open Week one football game. But it's like, hey, Virginia Tech, that's a tough team. It seemed like South Carolina played played well enough to get the dub. Vandy struggled with Virginia Tech in the first half, then beat the breaks off from the second half. But still it's like, hey, that's a tough game. It's really setting up this Vanderbilt South Carolina game. Then you see what happens this is Vanderbilt South Carolina game, and then you see what happened to Virginia Tech against Old Dominion. They got destroyed. Coaches, the coach got fired. Coach got fired. So it's like, yeah, Prie, he gets fired. So it's like, uh, I don't know. I don't know with with South Carolina, I don't know. With Vanderbilt. I feel like Vanderbilt looks they look a lot better. I think Clark Lee deserves a ship to the credit. People love him, the culture he has, he seems like he seems like the guy, like a really good coach in this league.

00:21:15
Speaker 2: But you're saying the test that they had this week might not have been the test actually just because of their common.

00:21:20
Speaker 1: Right, Because when I looked in that I saw the v Tech score and then you see what happens where he gets fired. I'm just like, man, I wonder if Vandy I kind of have the same question mark with LSU.

00:21:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think you said.

00:21:32
Speaker 7: I think you said.

00:21:33
Speaker 5: Though, Clark Lee, like since he's been at Vandy has changed the culture fast. He has got he's brought guys in through the portal and he knows his team well enough and knows how to game plan well enough that they stick to it.

00:21:47
Speaker 3: And it obviously works.

00:21:49
Speaker 1: Like yeah, yeah, I'm with.

00:21:50
Speaker 5: All it one second, Like mind game in the first half, it's like they've ever looked on the offensive. One's just got to respond with like an equal test, like against him, they match up.

00:22:05
Speaker 7: That play style matches up really well against us, like in our defense, because we want the guys to be throwing the ball, we want to have opportunities to force mistakes. Vanderbilt, the only time they're going to make a mistake is if Pavia just decides to be an idiot. But like, I think they do match up well against US, and they might not match up well against the defense has built differently.

00:22:25
Speaker 1: Who does Vandy got this week?

00:22:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's look that up. While we're looking that up, let's get into LSU Florida man bro five interceptions on the day. Billy Napier's not feeling good. He's definitely on the hot seat right now.

00:22:40
Speaker 1: So good about that game too, Like picking Florida plus seven and a half.

00:22:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you had, I mean you had the logic behind what you were saying, is right, Like give me the hungry dog, give me the wounded animal. And I think, like, well, but it's like, now we're going to play with Florida. It's like, Okay, you pressed, this is your five star guy that was your favorite? Is he the guys? He's not the guy. He's feeling the same pressure that we're saying right now. So does he start to press? And it's like you go from that six week run last year where like Napier like went from hot seat guy to oh no, this is our guy to now it's like, I don't see a world where Florida can kind of right this ship.

00:23:12
Speaker 1: I don't either, because I think Liveway is gonna have the yips, Like you throw five picks like that, you're just you start getting in your head. Yeah you know what I mean.

00:23:20
Speaker 2: You three picks, you're in your hands sometimes too. Yeah, And in fact you had five and like Buddy, some of them were just you notice, I can't We've seen the way I throw a ball, but it's like those decisions those balls were not can't have them, can't have them. And then you look at ls students, like Okay, LSU's a three and oh for the first time since twenty nineteen, they either're winning games. They played two ranked up Florida wasn't ranked, but they played two opponents that are like, this is gonna be big games.

00:23:46
Speaker 1: They played against a really good defense. Florida's got a good defense.

00:23:49
Speaker 2: And you look at the defense from like year one of Brian Kelly the year three. Now it's like, oh, they are like a top ten defense. They look incredible. But then Garrettnusmyern the boys on the other side of the ball, they can't figure out a way to get to push the ball to the field, and it's like, when does that exposure happened? Which kind of brings us back to the Vanderbilt question is like are they real? Because who's really the owner of the SEC right now? Alabama had that forest, Georgia, you know, Georgia survives Tennessee. Vanderbilt kind of just like looks like the most steady program right now. No, I'm something of the SEC. Organ looks good. They didn't cover. They didn't cover. Are they who we thought?

00:24:33
Speaker 1: There?

00:24:34
Speaker 2: Are the Ducks who we thought they were? I don't think so. I don't know, but yeah, it's it's a big one. Who Okay, go back, go back to Vanderbilts. Where's the dates here?

00:24:47
Speaker 1: So they got Georgia State this week Georgia So then October fourth that Bama. That'll be that'll be a great game.

00:24:56
Speaker 2: That'll be great.

00:24:56
Speaker 1: They got they got from Bama. They got Bama l s you Missoo, Texas and Auburn.

00:25:04
Speaker 2: That's a gauntlet. Kentucky yountlet right there, right, Hugh Freeze, Yeah.

00:25:11
Speaker 7: He's under is undefeated against Freeze.

00:25:13
Speaker 1: And what's his name, coach Kill? Yeah, Jerry Kill. People talk Kylie him too, but man.

00:25:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, like you don't I just don't know. You just don't know what the sec right now, which has got it? Like if you are a Tennessee fan, or you're a South Telphant, or you're a Bama fan, like you gotta kind have in a good spot because you're like this one lot is not gonna we solve an opportunity to all the things are still in front of.

00:25:34
Speaker 1: Us and then go ahead.

00:25:36
Speaker 7: I was just gonna this is kind of separate from them. But like Arkansas is gonna be very good either by the end of this year or next year. They're gonna have a squad that's competing at the top.

00:25:46
Speaker 1: I didn't catch are you talking about the hell the way they performed against Ole Miss. Yeah, don't they have a quarterback.

00:25:52
Speaker 7: Yeah, Taylor Green, He's he's super athletic. But Patrina and Pittman, I think they're gonna cook something.

00:26:00
Speaker 1: I was gonna say my question mark with l s U two again, it's like, you beat Florida by ten and you had five interceptions like they were I want to say, LS you might have turned the ball over one time, so you're what.

00:26:13
Speaker 2: Your plus your plus four in the turn your plus.

00:26:15
Speaker 1: Four the turnover margin, and you only beat Florida by ten points. Florida's lost to the us F Like Florida obviously they just lost.

00:26:22
Speaker 7: L s U.

00:26:23
Speaker 1: And then you look at LSU. It's like, oh, is this going to be the team this year? Because they opened with Clemson and beat Clemson in a good game, but then Clemson just goes it gets handled.

00:26:33
Speaker 2: By Georgia Tex example, you gave about Virginia Tech. Yeah, really, who has LSU played this year?

00:26:39
Speaker 7: Right?

00:26:39
Speaker 2: Like?

00:26:39
Speaker 1: Are they going to be for real? So I feel like LSU is a little bit on that that that fraud, that fraud watching by the way, I think, uh, the Weeks brothers just absolute psychopaths.

00:26:50
Speaker 7: The youngest one.

00:26:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's I can't believe he's out there pre snap like talking ship, like you see his head going up and down.

00:26:57
Speaker 7: Like.

00:26:58
Speaker 1: This family is just a bunch of from the Louisiana.

00:27:00
Speaker 2: They're all just like they love.

00:27:02
Speaker 1: I think their dad played at Georgia and they have a brother that is either at Georgia or George playing at Georgia. Yeah, big Georgia ties somewhere. Yeah.

00:27:12
Speaker 2: I look at this tops on like you gotta make sure this is in the This is.

00:27:16
Speaker 1: In there all cycles. And by the way, that targeting call on wit Weeks was bullshit. Did you happen to see that hit?

00:27:25
Speaker 2: I didn't, Bro.

00:27:26
Speaker 1: This is just a regular tackle, Bro, And the receiver was kind of going down and was coming across the middle and he just kind of hits him like this, like a sideline tackle, and the receiver kind of puts it down, but he engages with his helmet. They kick him out of the game. He's out of the game in like the first quarter, and he is going nuts on the sideline. Little Bro ends up getting in and he's just talking ship before the still.

00:27:48
Speaker 2: Image right there is the problem culture. Yeah, yeah, I look at that, Bro, crazy, and that's just the pursuit drill too, Like that wasn't a catch bang tackle, Like he caught the ball and he's just pursued to the sideline. Right.

00:27:58
Speaker 7: Brian Kelly was like, I don't know if the youngest with Week's brother played well, but he played with a whole lot of energy.

00:28:04
Speaker 1: What's going on. He might not have known anything he was doing, but he's like, fuck it, I'm gonna go psych though.

00:28:10
Speaker 7: That's that's all I'm asking.

00:28:12
Speaker 2: Yeah, the we gotta have a moment of silence for a boy, Shane Gillis.

00:28:18
Speaker 1: That's all.

00:28:19
Speaker 8: Really.

00:28:19
Speaker 7: They're still ranked.

00:28:21
Speaker 1: Love you, Shane, Love you Shane.

00:28:26
Speaker 2: I mean what a shootout? Yeah, they're ranked for the first time. Something we said in the pre production, like nineteen eighty seven something like that. Michigan went oh in too and they were still ranked. It's just kind of you know this team too.

00:28:36
Speaker 1: They're gonna win out and they're gonna be in the conversation with the cost Well.

00:28:38
Speaker 2: Yeah, at the end of the year, and it really depends like like games not really, dude, No, the rest the rest of their schedule.

00:28:45
Speaker 1: Is their hardest game right now is USC But outside of that, it's you.

00:28:50
Speaker 2: You see the kind of nice was Purdue? It look kind of nice.

00:28:53
Speaker 1: I know it's for due. I understand, right, USC could be a good team this year, But I'm saying USC is all they really got left. You got Purdue, Arkansas, Boise State, NC State, USC, Boston College, Navy, Pit, Syracuse, and Stanford.

00:29:08
Speaker 2: Yeah. I guess, like the conversation, I don't know a whole lot. I'm not familiar with Arkansas's bag, but you guys are saying that's gonna be a little dog fight too.

00:29:15
Speaker 1: Definitely scroll up though, Which is so if they get a double digit win there and they handle USC, I can see how they'll be in that cot Yeah.

00:29:25
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially if USC stays ranked, because the USC is only twenty five right now. It's gonna do you need a top twenty five win if you're gonna be an independent school. But it's the logo touchdown Jesus. They have religion on their side. Like, there's a lot of things going for them, and the rest of their schedule is I mean, they're through it. They're through the hardest part of their schedule.

00:29:44
Speaker 1: They should have lost when they fumbled that snap for the extra point and the cover was was ruined from.

00:29:48
Speaker 2: That time when they're marked. When A and M is margining on the field, they have a penalty and I think a penalty should have gotten called in that left guard like that seemed like a holding call and he throws it a little back shoulders at the end of the game, at the linebacker with his shoulders turned, It's like, bro, how do you let that happen?

00:30:05
Speaker 5: Why?

00:30:08
Speaker 1: Cokey Riley?

00:30:10
Speaker 2: Is that who?

00:30:10
Speaker 7: That is?

00:30:11
Speaker 1: Cokie Riley and.

00:30:13
Speaker 4: Two Notre Dame ranked at number ten in his AP pulse.

00:30:17
Speaker 2: Probably did stay off the Cokki a little bit. That's a little crazy.

00:30:21
Speaker 1: I don't understand this AP stuff we were talking about. Obviously been a big conversation over the last week. You see Josh Peyton calling everybody out. You see that uh that gal, Yeah, that gal saying you know, who did she have ranked?

00:30:33
Speaker 7: Wasn't it like, uh was like Texas super high or like it was, but.

00:30:38
Speaker 4: She had Florida ranked over somebody that had just beat Florida.

00:30:42
Speaker 1: I believe, Oh that's right us F Yeah, yeah, well did you?

00:30:48
Speaker 7: I was the report true on Notre Dame was like, we're ready to join that acc or big ten if there's a sixteen team playoff.

00:30:56
Speaker 1: I saw that. I just didn't know if it was real. Yeah, because you don't know what's real out there. You see that, you see that, uh.

00:31:03
Speaker 7: No Sweet at like midnight, I think like goes out like.

00:31:08
Speaker 1: You see that No three Sports Twitter account just doing just real trolling, like just making stuff up. And then you got Nico. It's about like Nico and u c l A and the Nico's dads and their dms. What do you know they're in the dms And it's like this reporter said this, and the reporters like I've never said that in my life, Like this is wrong, this is all fake. So I never know what to believe on the internet. God coach bro who was head coach at u c l A.

00:31:38
Speaker 2: So the u c l A head coach gets fired. They went back to his press conference. Did you guys see that clip Buddy talk about not having any stage presence at all?

00:31:46
Speaker 1: You talking about when he got hired.

00:31:47
Speaker 2: When he got hired, you see it, he's like, basically, I'm just the longest ball is be like, basically I'm really excited. Yeah, it's like that's the leader of menu.

00:31:56
Speaker 1: Even after the game. This past week, as I'm like, why he's the man for the jobs I can get these is to play for me. And it's like, you're getting your.

00:32:03
Speaker 2: N last week. What are you talking about?

00:32:05
Speaker 1: You're three right now?

00:32:06
Speaker 7: Yeah, you Arizona killed them, did y'all see?

00:32:09
Speaker 2: What?

00:32:10
Speaker 8: So, because that the Virginia Tech and u c l A coach got fired, the transfer portal for those two teams.

00:32:17
Speaker 1: Open up immediately for the next thirty days.

00:32:20
Speaker 8: Right, the next thirty days, it's open. And I read this article. I read this article. They I think that these like Nico could transfer and he could immediately start playing. They haven't played four games, because they haven't played four games, so they can these guys can Like Virginia Tech and UCLA might not have a football team at the end of the year because like not enough guys, because all these guys are going to transfer, and like they this could it's like all like fine print stuff, But there's a chance that these guys like could be able to play.

00:32:51
Speaker 2: Receivers in Virginia's excite that. I love to have an amazing blue Nico. You gotta get got a couple of receivers now, I wouldn't mind having.

00:32:59
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know where you go, but I'm just I'm just thinking, clearly, you made the wrong choice going to u c l A.

00:33:08
Speaker 8: Quarterback Nico said he's stepping away from the team to like focus on his like mental health. He's not even playing this week.

00:33:15
Speaker 2: Is that real?

00:33:16
Speaker 7: No?

00:33:16
Speaker 3: That is I thought that was real.

00:33:18
Speaker 1: That's from the No. Three sports bro.

00:33:22
Speaker 3: No, trust me.

00:33:26
Speaker 1: I had to click like five extra time to see if that stuff was real because he was saying that a reporter that covers u c l A was saying that the reporters like quote tweeting and everything saying like this is this is false, Like this has never been said.

00:33:38
Speaker 2: But dude, Nico, like you see a lot of these transfer portal guys like Joey Adler starts at app State really did have a whole lot of development. Then he goes to UCLA. Then he gets into the Tennessee at like this massive program. Nico. You see the Five Stars to man where they go, They go to Tennessee, then it's UCLA. The next stop for him is like cal Pauly, like.

00:33:59
Speaker 5: The same thing.

00:34:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kay, who's still in college? That is crazy? Yeah. Friend of the Show. Friend of the Show, okay, but.

00:34:07
Speaker 1: Hey did the calendar winning, Oh Senior parlay, you needed Caldary, Minnesota?

00:34:13
Speaker 2: You know who fucking talks to me too? That too. The probably was already dead because I took Notre Dame money line. But the Midland Boys they were at Red Rock this weekend. They're playing at Red Rock and they we're all texting about plays, and Mark's like, if there's one player I love, it's Minnesota versus calend was like, oh yeah, okay, jumping that with you.

00:34:29
Speaker 1: Minnesota money line over cal Y. Yeah. Yeah, them playing in cal was like I just saw it last year. Bro, Like, anytime you're traveling across the coast, like it's it never it's brutal.

00:34:38
Speaker 2: That's why Stanford they got to switch up everything that they were doing. But yeah, Minnesota's got a little defensive linement number zero. He's nasty, buddy.

00:34:46
Speaker 7: I swear they always got a zero, so they always do.

00:34:48
Speaker 2: Minnesota has always got like one or two guys. You're like, how the fuck did he slipped to the Gophers.

00:34:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's crazy.

00:34:57
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, speaking of trolling, were about to move on real quick. Will Muschamp, his son plays at Vanderbilt, and he takes this selfie. Mind you, we paid this man fifteen million in a buyout. He comes into Williams Brice, whoops us with his son, takes the selfie with his kid and says dogs indoors and tweets it out. Bro, I reported it so fast and it's still there. You should like it.

00:35:26
Speaker 1: Paid this man fifteen million.

00:35:27
Speaker 7: It should have been in that contract, like, hey, you can never come back in this stadium and tweet no less. Yeah, like take his phone, confiscate the phone.

00:35:37
Speaker 2: Hey, you know about people not being allowed in the facility. You see Bill Belichick a un see no he uh this might be an on three situation, like take this excuse me podcast, no disrespect to on three. He was doing a press conference and there was a report that the Patriots scouts were not allowed a u n C. And his reasoning for that is, well, I'm not allowed on the facility. So because of that, they're not allowed in our facility.

00:36:03
Speaker 7: It's like, Bill, say goodbye to your players.

00:36:06
Speaker 2: Tell your girl to stop running your life. Like these players want to get drafted and there's only thirty two of them. Don't take you tell one team they can't go in. That's it's it's bad. Got his first dub though, Hey arch Manning Texas, but it's like it's almost heartbreaking to talk about.

00:36:23
Speaker 6: Is arch Manning good?

00:36:25
Speaker 2: I think Jimmie Clump said shoulder injury, and it seems like he has a shoulder injury.

00:36:29
Speaker 1: I haven't watched I haven't watched him play much since we were at the Ohio State game. Like I see the clips like of him wincing last week, and then I just really saw the stat line and everybody's comments on it from their game against U TEP. I have no clue. It seems like he's not the best thrower in the world. It also sounds like he's injured.

00:36:46
Speaker 6: Was it seven three in the third quarter.

00:36:48
Speaker 4: Or it's so going into halftime? It was seven to three and then Texas gotta turnover. They were able to get some points right before half. But there was a point in the game where arch went, uh oh for eleven. I believe for eleven.

00:37:04
Speaker 1: Now did you see these throws? I know he has like he's like having it's like accuracy issues.

00:37:10
Speaker 3: He's probably got the yips, but you could.

00:37:13
Speaker 2: Have I feel like the only logical explanation is shoulder injury. It's got to be something because bro By Heisman front runner, you can't be the generational first overall high school player. Like something something has to be wrong, like and that's where you got to kind of sit back and give a little grace because it's like, there's no way he's this he's this bad, no something.

00:37:38
Speaker 1: When we were at the Ohio State game and we're on the Texas sideline, like somebody told us we haven't felt this good about a quarterback since Colt McCory, right, And.

00:37:45
Speaker 2: If you the only way you feel that way is if you're at the practice and you see what he's capable of doing. So something has had to have happened. I mean, like I don't know why. At what point does Sarkisian come out and be like, hey, yes he's got an issue, But it's like your stark.

00:37:59
Speaker 1: Won't you been hearing those He's like who told you?

00:38:03
Speaker 2: Did he say that?

00:38:03
Speaker 1: Okay?

00:38:04
Speaker 2: Then he's not hurt and you're just like, but if you're if you're playing UTEP like that and you're I mean, you're supposed to win the SEC you're first, You're you're Texas, Like eventually you've got to come out and be like he's been hurt. But if you wait till like week ten or week nine, it's like then it's like, hey, the excuses are kind of over right. And if and and this is just one like viewpoint is, if you're Sark and these players come in and play for you, they want to feel like you're going to protect him in their time of need. If Arch Manning is hurt, you, like, he's not gonna come out and say he's a team guy. He comes from the Manning blood line where it's everything's always on them. But like players want to feel protected by their coaches, and it's not going to be Arch to go and say that. It's got to be Sark to be like, listen, he's dealing with something. It's obviously very clear when you see it. But like you know, it's not like they're in a position to win the SEC. They are in a position still, but like that's the way it's going. It's not going to happen.

00:39:02
Speaker 1: Nico could transfer there and do what just chaos, just chaos.

00:39:11
Speaker 2: Could you imagine Nico in Texas all of a.

00:39:13
Speaker 1: Sudden more money, somehow got more money. Miami and Carson back.

00:39:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, Miami did what we thought they do to us F Yeah, I thought we sold high. We sold high, We sold high. You took Miami, right, yeah, Miami, Yeah we all did. We all did all right? Good because it Yeah, you sneak up on Florida, You sneak up on Boys State.

00:39:36
Speaker 1: You can't.

00:39:37
Speaker 2: You can't sneak up a third time. Yeah, you can't sneak up a third time.

00:39:40
Speaker 1: Miami's gonna be tough.

00:39:40
Speaker 2: Man.

00:39:41
Speaker 1: I'm excited about Miami and Florida State. Florida State's nice body, Yeah.

00:39:47
Speaker 8: I know.

00:39:47
Speaker 1: I just feel like they're seeing the way Bama again. It's like the Bama the freak out that happened after the Bama game and justified like the effort issues and loafs and stuff like that. Absolutely, But now that you see Bama take care of business since Florida State, it's like, oh, maybe maybe Florida State is just a badass football team.

00:40:07
Speaker 2: Yeah.

00:40:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, Coator Tony White, Tony White, Terrence Knight and Night.

00:40:17
Speaker 2: All the transfer guys they had and were able to like make those guys gel together that quickly.

00:40:21
Speaker 7: I mean, that's yeah, something that was getting floated out with Carson Beck because you know how everyone's like, man, Carson Beck has really turned it on. He needed a just like a fresh start at Miami. The receivers at Miami are awesome. He finally has a good receivers room. Georgia's receiver receiver room was never bad. Is it a play of like you're playing against a lot worse secondaries in the ACC And is Carson Beck as good as everybody thinks he is? Or is he just was he like an average SEC quarterback that moves to the ACC and now looks dominant.

00:40:58
Speaker 3: Georgia did lead the I think damn near the f and drops.

00:41:02
Speaker 1: Yeah, like they didn't have a bad room, but statistically they had like they had the most drops. So they guys were dropping.

00:41:10
Speaker 7: With another quarterback and I can't remember who it was.

00:41:13
Speaker 1: Because they they had like they had the room. And even this year Georgia went out and got and he had a little breakout game over the weekend against yeah Branch that came to Yeah, he was a five star cat and he had a big game, but he was We need one of those, bro and number number three that runs the ball for Georgia.

00:41:32
Speaker 2: I like him, but it's there isn't there running back room, like.

00:41:35
Speaker 1: Just insane running. But three specifically.

00:41:38
Speaker 7: I like him.

00:41:39
Speaker 2: Yeah, the kid had a twenty one yard got like.

00:41:42
Speaker 1: Mark Ingram style build, seems fast as shit, tough as ship. Yeah, and guys were thumping in that game both sides of the ball too.

00:41:52
Speaker 2: Yeah. Maybe it just didn't Maybe it just didn't work like right, and it's nobody's fault. It just didn't work out the way it was. The pressure got a little much for Carson. The receivers a lot of drops like right, both can be true.

00:42:04
Speaker 1: And change the scenery can really help somebody out.

00:42:06
Speaker 7: But it's kind of like, I guess the quarterback I'm thinking of what is Kate is? Like cad Club Nick was supposed to be one of the best quarterbacks in the country. They had him as one of the best last year, supposed to be one of the best this year. But he's zero and four against good teams. But he runs up numbers in the ACC, right, So that's it's like, is a Carson Becca?

00:42:27
Speaker 1: Yeah?

00:42:27
Speaker 2: A lot of teams are looking a lot better because the teams that they're playing, right, Yeah, is one of those guys. Do you guys want to get to the NFL?

00:42:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, would love to. I just also want to say again Oregon did not cover against Northwestern.

00:42:40
Speaker 2: Yeah, do we want let's and they give up a garbage fourth quarter touchdown.

00:42:46
Speaker 1: They did hit on the back door cover.

00:42:48
Speaker 2: The back door cover is nasty.

00:42:50
Speaker 1: It's you know, like the Northwestern coach allegedly texted me and said, I fucking told you the fridge fridge with his hip.

00:42:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, like Dan, and it needs to get a handle on his players, like to have you got to play sixty minutes. You can't just play forty five. Yeah, Like you got to get in there and you gotta get going. This is this is a sixty minute game. You play like that. Let that's the kind of shit bleed in When you play the big dogs, you're gonna run into some missions. And so a little bit of warning from the boys to the Northwest, like, let's dial it in, Dan.

00:43:19
Speaker 8: Did y'all see north Welladay Stadium? Did y'all see Northwestern? But I told you it's a park that I'm pretty sure I played in better stadiums in D three than what their stadium is.

00:43:29
Speaker 1: Right now, it's beautiful though it's sick.

00:43:31
Speaker 2: It's beautiful.

00:43:32
Speaker 3: It's so sick on the lake.

00:43:33
Speaker 2: You're like, man, the folio is really nice.

00:43:35
Speaker 8: There's like five thousand people that can fit in there.

00:43:37
Speaker 1: Like it's not Yeah, it's not very big, dude.

00:43:40
Speaker 2: Yeah that that's that's a that is a Texas high school football.

00:43:45
Speaker 1: Team right there. And it's always a home game for the away team. Like when Nebraska went there. Uh, Northwestern had to go on silent count because the Big Red was so loud.

00:43:54
Speaker 2: Northwestern is the Vader Belgiab of the Big Ten.

00:43:58
Speaker 1: But I we did so.

00:44:00
Speaker 2: Uh was it the fourth preseason game when they used to have those We played the Bears in a fourth preseason game and like the bunch of the starters were playing. So we went to Northwestern's facilities to get a workout and do some conditioning, some drills and stuff like that. Their facility is small, but it's like really nice. Like it's glass windows everywhere. It looks over the lake. It is beautiful and you can't you're not going to be successful with the glass windows. You want gritty damn. That's well. The stadium is different facility. We were trading everything. You want a little grid in there, you want a little grills.

00:44:37
Speaker 1: Before we go into the NFL again, we briefly touched on it and I get tensions or high. But how are you feeling about the bust and ball?

00:44:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, I feel it's confident. I can possibly be more. I feel as confident as I did in twenty twenty three. That's how I feel.

00:44:49
Speaker 1: Do you really?

00:44:50
Speaker 2: Yeah? I do. I think. First off, Biff pog him being the interim head coach. I love him. I love his postgame press confidence. I love the way Bryce Underwood played. I when I look at the loss to Oklahoma, I look, I you know, unfortunately I look at the game plan like, well, that wasn't a winning formula. That wasn't a formula to look at you like you. Dave said this, and I said it last week after Dave said it, is that that was a game plan and not get embarrassed, like not knowing who you had a quarterback opening it up against, you know, the Chippewas Central Michigan. It's like you see the operation, you see the plane. It's like, Okay, we still got the players to get things done. That's how I feel. How about you?

00:45:26
Speaker 1: I feel good.

00:45:26
Speaker 2: I think you guys performed really well bouncing back after Oklahoma. I think I'm just excited to see us like this is the first like this is conference play. We're gonna get our first test.

00:45:35
Speaker 1: You guys operated this last game in a way to where it's like, Okay, you're gonna get a fistfight coming in here. You want you want to see how we're going to play against Bryce Underwood is feeling confident. I'm nervous, like I'm excited for the potential that this team could have this year. Like we beat the breaks off of these last two schools. They were nobodies. But in the past, we've never had you go in the halftime. We might be up on a team and then you might put up ten or thirteen in the second half. I feel like, no matter whether the starters go back out there or the backups go out there, the standard has stayed the standard. And that's what I've loved to see. And it's like, yeah, we we toughed out a win against Cincinnati, And then you look at how Sowersby's played since playing Nebraska. I think he threw for sixty seven yards against US. Now he's throwing for like five hundred and eighty and eight touchdowns. He's somebody who can beat you with their legs, which again, Bryce presents a huge challenge with that I'm just excited. It's like, man, do we got a really good secondary? Do we I know we're playing well defensively, We've been playing some cupcake schools. We've handled everybody the way you want a good team to handle these teams, like, hey, doesn't matter who's rolling out there, this is the standard. So I've loved seeing that. And it's more of like I'm nervous because man, this this is a fucking huge game for our season.

00:46:45
Speaker 2: It's very difficult for me to like, I guess want to talk shit because I do have a lot of respect for a lot of respect for Rule. I think your defense has played incredible, and I love your running back. It's like, that's a team that goes into year three of Matt Rule. You want them to play like this versus these cupcake teams. The thing that makes me feel really good is the essentially being battle tested. You go in, it didn't go the way you wanted. There's not a whole lot you look at from like a play standpoint you're like fire about, but there's a lot of things that's like, Okay, that's a reason we didn't really put ourselves in a position. And I think Bryce needed that for this going into Big Ten play, It's gonna be exciting. Man, it's gonna be exciting game. I'm Nebraska fans. They've got a whole they got a new generation. All the nice ones are dying off like there, I'm expected a bunch of fuck Michigan's. I'm excited. I want them to get a little nasty with me. I kinda want me to feel like one could take a swing in Lincoln. That's because that's when Nebraska needs. It's not a Hey, great job, Nebraska needs a fan base that is demanding of what they've put on the field for the last three weeks.

00:47:54
Speaker 1: Demanding. Yeah, we got to challenge I gotta do a good job of challenging Husker fans because they need to remember what happened a couple of years ago when you guys had like the fourteen play drive you ended up scoring. We get a tip pass on the first play of the game, offensively, they you guys pick it off, and our place was dead from that point out, like we're not even in We're not even in the game anymore. When it's like we had you guys on a third down, you need the stadium as loud as ever they weren't. You guys obviously beat the shit out of us had you took our mind, body, soul, signs, everything. But that's gonna be the challenge for Husker Nation this weekend.

00:48:28
Speaker 2: You know what I've noticed in just a small time we've been sitting on this bus, since we've seen each other. You know the tensions there, But there's a level of us putting our friendship first right now because there's a lot of things that we've done in the past, wanting Michigan to fail, me talking nasty about Nebraska, and we're kind of yeah, sitting here without the bullets material because you know, you've already said you're more confident than you were in twenty times. That's a national that's a that's one of the best teams in college football that was on the field, and this Michigan team isn't close to that football team.

00:48:59
Speaker 1: Okay, you think so, I'm talking just Michigan teams, Michigan twenty twenty five and Michigan twenty twenty three. You think Michigan twenty twenty five is as good as the Michigan twenty twenty three team.

00:49:10
Speaker 2: There's probably a couple of areas where we can get better, but I don't think we're I don't think we're that far off. We're not that far off. There's been penalties, some costly mistakes that you don't like to see. First game of the year, you see a fumbled kick return. There's just things that mistakes were being made by this team that weren't made in twenty three. A lot of talent on that squad, a lot of talent that hasn't been on Earth yet. Right, do you toss me in week eight?

00:49:37
Speaker 1: Java?

00:49:37
Speaker 6: A wager at all between you two?

00:49:39
Speaker 1: There's no wager. I placed a bomb on this game, like personally same, I've yeah, responsibly a responsible bomb. I shot a DM to Blake yesterday. I told him, Hey, great game, he had a good game against Tennessee. I hope you have a great week.

00:49:57
Speaker 7: He did.

00:49:58
Speaker 2: Blake is so.

00:50:00
Speaker 1: Ah. What did he say?

00:50:02
Speaker 2: He said?

00:50:03
Speaker 5: Like?

00:50:03
Speaker 1: Uh, He basically said something like like, whenever the weekend happens, I expect a pantry talk after the game. And I said, well, whenever this weekend happens, I expect you to say Nebraska. What did I say?

00:50:14
Speaker 5: Like?

00:50:14
Speaker 1: Nebraska is a dominant football team. I don't know why I ever doubted Will Compton coming from your Twitter account, hopefully does Yeah, hopefully he does. He said, yeah, I gotta I got a JP Hove bet for you. I know, I know you're happy. I'm not there. I'm not there eating all the corn after the game this upcoming weekend, I'm gonna need to see a little pantry talk on ig And I said, I'll need a Nebraska's for real. And I should have never doubted. Will Compton tweety did he agree to that? He didn't agree to it. But this is this is the public challenge right here.

00:50:49
Speaker 2: I think bombs will be placed on FanDuel sportsbook. There's no There's no doubt about that. So there's a there's a financial issue that is going to take place in both of our lives. Bombs might be bigger than others from a bet standpoint. My bet to you is this, if Nebraska wins, I'll shave my mustache for the rest of the year.

00:51:11
Speaker 1: What's that? What's that?

00:51:12
Speaker 2: I'll shave my mustache and I'll be clean shaving the rest of the year. No, if Michigan wins, you're not allowed to cut the top of your head for the rest of the year.

00:51:25
Speaker 1: You said, I can't get a haircut for the rest of the year.

00:51:26
Speaker 2: And get a haircut for the rest of the year. And I know you every Tuesday to thirty. Yeah, I know your Tuesday every two thirty. I was gonna wait for the locker room for this, but you guys started talking about bets and I was like, I did have this in the chamber. I will cut my I'll cut my mustache for the for until jan one twenty six, and I will not grow start growing it out until jan one twenty six. So really we're looking at February. Yeah, we're looking at Super Bowl before I have my mustache back.

00:51:54
Speaker 1: Come on, we can talk about it.

00:51:58
Speaker 2: Listen, listen, listen.

00:52:00
Speaker 1: You never never, you never make an emotional decision, Never make a guy you have chosen to get behind because one because one guy, guy.

00:52:08
Speaker 2: Who refused to say the name, the guy who refused to say the name of the team he's playing this week. We saw that worked out for Ohio State. And the guy who says I can't take a hair cutting bet because you don't want to make an emotional decision.

00:52:19
Speaker 1: I said, we'll talk about it. I didn't say no. Like again, I'm a principled individual. Like we are. I will look ridiculous growing my hair out. You've shaved your mustache and whatever. Your insecurities are yours and yours only because you look fine without a mustache.

00:52:32
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's also a part of my my identity. Like I don't whether I look fine.

00:52:35
Speaker 1: But you look fine. I would look ridiculous for long air ridiculous.

00:52:38
Speaker 2: But when we get to December and you do look ridiculous, I think it's like more fun for all of us.

00:52:44
Speaker 1: Like again, we can talk about it.

00:52:45
Speaker 8: I didn't say no, Joey, you say you've always said it will has been in no first and then don't think about it.

00:52:50
Speaker 2: Understand, but you think you think the way we'll walk through the building today, the into the building, tayl are good to see you.

00:52:57
Speaker 5: Like you.

00:52:58
Speaker 2: There's a lot of hope and optimism in Nebraska, and it's like, okay, everyone's got hoped to on optimism. Then it's like, okay, put something on the table. That's what happens, but I don't know, we'll talk about it. It's like all right, well yeah today tomorrow, I'm a principal guy. Even look at me. You just gotta think to yourself, like what are we talking about I'm a principal guy, Like, what does that even mean?

00:53:20
Speaker 1: It means you you don't make an emotional decision like in the moment, and you've been the only one to offer something. There's been no counter counter offer, there's no I've put anything on the table. Like, this has got to be a collaboration. This can't be a tailor.

00:53:30
Speaker 2: I'll do this. Whatever you want to bet them in about being principal. Whatever you want to say.

00:53:37
Speaker 6: Tune Wednesday for the official bet.

00:53:39

00:56:33
Speaker 1: Between them in the Bills, by the way, super prediction est teams in football.

00:56:38
Speaker 2: I think you got. I mean we'll get to the lines. You love the way they got back on track against Oh, But it's like, yeah, you look at the teams and the small little sample size we have right now. You look at the Packers in the NF Senior, You're like, well, who's beaten them? Obviously they're going to lose a game or two here or there, and it'll be an uncharacteristic, Hey let's uplip on the radar type of thing. But from a Packer's standpoint, it's like it lose, was it read? Jordan Reed is at his name? Ja Jayden Reid?

00:57:02
Speaker 1: Excuse me?

00:57:03
Speaker 2: Yeah? First drive, collar bone? But like they ran the ball effectively. Jordan Love looks. Jordan Love looked good. Like they got to get golden a little more mixed up when it comes to like him catching catching balls. He had a couple of Jets sweeps. The thing the only thing that concerns me with the Packers is when pressure was applied to Jordan Love, I think it's I have to look at the percentages, but his percentages go way down as far as accuracy and completion percentage.

00:57:25
Speaker 1: The better. The better side of the ball for the Packers is defense, like they have an elite defense, like Michael Parsons, Rashaun Gary, like their second level key saw not him Beau bro he was a former teammate of mine. Also Nate Hobbs, they were with the Raiders. But Nixon has always been like a return guy. He's gotten the he's gotten his opportunity at the quarterback position, and you see throughout the game that they're also targeted targeting him. He is a baller bro Like their secondary is good and the secondary is going to be complemented well because they have such a good pass rush, Like the quarterback is gonna have to get the ball out quick. And again it's like uh Lions had a great bounce back week. But you look at who the Packers have beaten handedly in the first two weeks, and Washington's a good football team, Like the way they beat the shit out of the Giants, Like Giants and Cowboys going down to the wire over the weekend. Uh you look at the way the Lions bounce back against the Bears. Yea, Packers are right now my favorite team in the NFL. Like as far as like lead dog, who the best team is? Right? Yeah they got yeah.

00:58:24
Speaker 2: They do, but they got their whole the whole state is behind them. And yeah, you can't say nothing about Michael Parsons. I know everybody like the whole Lawrence Taylor thing when we're on Get Up. But statistically, Arsons is there in their first statistically care he's there, and it's like, yeah, you're you want people are gonna make that comparison right now for the click. Statistically he is there right now. But buddy, the elevation that that defense has from him because they're across the board better than Dallas's defense ever was last year. Across the board, player by player, you can go and be like, Okay, he's better, he's better, he's better. But it's like, yeah, when he's in the game, you can feel all of the commanders off it to be like he right there, and that is the thing that is going to I bring him a bunch for Shaun Gary. He's gonna have a career year. This year, he's got two games, two sacks already. He's getting pressure. He's getting pressure. You put him in the three techning standpoint, he put him on the left tackle, the right tackle wherever, and then Parsons is getting chipped, he's getting slide to, and he's beating guys so quickly that he's making Jade Daniels run for his life. Yeah, it is one of the more impresidents. It's one of the things you sit back in as a x NFL offensive tackle and just go, thank god, thank god, I didn't have to deal with that right the inst And it's so fast because you're so scared about his speed that you're over setting and making this big b gap open for him to go into. He's slippery and moves in. He looks fantastic.

00:59:42
Speaker 1: If people might be saying the two faces of the Packers or Jordan Love and Josh Jacobs, I think the two faces of the Packers could be Micah Parsons and Tucker Craft.

00:59:50
Speaker 2: Tucker Craft, Hey, did you end up starting him? That a boy?

00:59:55
Speaker 1: Twenty? How many points did he get in fantasy?

00:59:58
Speaker 2: He went crazy with Beejhon Robinson crazy this weekend. Yeah, I mean Tucker first off, guy comes off the bus. He looks the part like he's been in the weight room extra this offseason. He was blocking, He's getting yacked like this guy. I'm impressed. I am impressed.

01:00:16
Speaker 1: Amni.

01:00:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, stud got some new ink as well.

01:00:20
Speaker 1: Hammer's beers the way you would assume looking at Tucker Craft.

01:00:23
Speaker 2: I know this is the second, maybe even the third moment of silence. Can we get one for Austin Eckler? Oh yeah, true professional on and off the field. Will talks about he I mean landlord. He was a landlord of Will Compton's when he was in Las Vegas, Nevada. The friend of the show guy operates at an extremely high level mentally, he understands the game. He he is a huge loss for the Commanders, huge loss for them.

01:00:52
Speaker 1: What's what was sad too about that moment is he knew it right when it happened, and you see it on his face.

01:00:58
Speaker 2: They brought they brought him over the lines. He sits on the bench and you could see a guy realizing maybe it's over.

01:01:05
Speaker 1: This could have been my last game and that could have been my last player on the field. Yeah, and that because where he's at, what is he thirty one? Yeah, yeah he's older.

01:01:14
Speaker 2: He is man just like yeah, just following a play, not even really like giving a whole lot of burst. The achilles is just scared. Charlie Whitehurst, quarterback, thirty years old. He would always like gone, but not forget. He would always talk about whatever his achilles was stored about. I mean, I'll tell you right now, I ain't going to practice. I've seen too many guys have a stre achilles. Two days later they tear that thing. He like, was so weird about the achilles, and you see it happing these cats. Man, it's sad. It is tough to see.

01:01:40
Speaker 1: Brian Robinson junior too.

01:01:44
Speaker 5: So who's the running back?

01:01:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, that rookie.

01:01:47
Speaker 2: It's the rookie, Yeah, which puts them in a bund.

01:01:50
Speaker 1: Yeah, they'll they'll need him to start fast tracking a lot more now because Austin you can tell they've split carries us up. But in the important situational ball, Austin will be out there because he understands the offense a lot more. So they'll need to fast track him and get him going like he's gonna have a big responsibility.

01:02:04
Speaker 3: I got your your guys, McNichols.

01:02:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's rights a little bit of a grinder and he's serviceable back. He can get it done a couple of times.

01:02:14
Speaker 1: Done Brot the third down back. Yeah.

01:02:18
Speaker 4: I don't mean to open a Pandora's box on this, but with the Achilles stendon injuries, is it just they're happening way more like I feel like I'm seeing way more of these non contact injuries, especially with the Achilles in basketball even too, Like is it something in training?

01:02:36
Speaker 1: Is it some kind of weightlifting thing?

01:02:38
Speaker 2: Like, I don't know, man, it's so I mean, we're not scientists. Yeah, yeah, I don't have an m but you're.

01:02:43
Speaker 1: Right, answer, You're right.

01:02:44
Speaker 2: I love to give you an answer, but the only answer I get you be a bunch of you fugazi. It's a bit of a like that. I'll tell you what what seems like to me is like players have gotten bigger, stronger, faster every single year. It seems like everyone's breaking new records of speed jump, the whole thing. And it's like our our engines running a little too high in the RPM category, where like you're having a little bit of a breakdown, like you have these ferraris. You want to pull out on Sunday, but sometimes they break down a little bit. I don't know that that's an educated guest, that's a Michigan degree. Guess right there. I like that guess Yeah, serviceable guess. Will you think the Commander's gonna be all right?

01:03:17
Speaker 1: I think the Commanders will be all right. Yeah, I honestly, I just think I think the Packers are a really good football team and they're dialed. Like you talk about mid season form, a lot of these teams will start catching up and figuring out what their identity is as they continue to get better and get going into the season. I feel like the Packers are like they're operating there right now. Because again, you got Jordan Love It's third year, was a third fourth year in the in the in the system, fourth year defensively, like who who's the coordinator now for the Packers? It's defense defensive coordinator for the Packers.

01:03:49
Speaker 2: Because the floor calls the plays right either way.

01:03:52
Speaker 1: This team is built very well top to bottom, and again even in the secondary where you think that they would have a weakness.

01:03:58
Speaker 2: Like Jeff Halfley is see.

01:04:00
Speaker 3: He's sneaky good. Some people are saying like maybe at the end of this year, he could be like a head coach candidate.

01:04:04
Speaker 1: Right right, And again this is a year two, so guys are way more familiar with the system. And even if you think the secondary could be a weakness, secondary is benefiting so much from the front seven that the Packers have. And somebody we didn't even mention is Eddrin Cooper, the rookie backer, like he's a stud him with kway Walker, they have that line of scrimmage like they're just tough, man, They're tough top to bottom. And again, it's like the way you saw the Lions bounce back, It's like the Lions could be again still a really good football team.

01:04:34
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they could be.

01:04:35
Speaker 1: And Packers handled them again. There was like no like what came alive in the Lions game is they started they were able to rush the passer, which they didn't really rush the passer that well against the Packers. Like I just think the Packers are a very well oiled machine right now.

01:04:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, you had a great stat about the Packers' defense, how like seventy two point six plays when they ran the ball they were met in the backfield. Yeah, and that's one of those things that's like they're winning the line of scrimmage in a big I mean, that's a crazy stat. I don't know what the regular stat is or the league average, but if you're winning in the backfield seventy two point six percent of the time, like you're not going a whole lot of plays.

01:05:10
Speaker 1: And I feel like they had them at the Washington I feel like they had the Commanders in third and longer a lot of the times. It'd be fun to look into that stat again coming out of Washington.

01:05:17
Speaker 2: I would I one thing about washing Washington's defense. Obviously, they got a lot of flak last year for their run defense. It seems like the run defense has gotten better, but they're lacking a little bit now through the air.

01:05:27
Speaker 1: Yeah.

01:05:27
Speaker 2: But it also it's like, is it the Packers.

01:05:29
Speaker 1: I was gonna say the Packers schimatically like when you see her Loskin, These these guys breaking plays down after the game is over, like the creativity on the floors in like with that offensive staff like they're doing. They're doing a lot of good job of being able to attack the weaknesses of defenses because there was like a lot of free runners. I feel like in that game that you're watching, guys are downfield. They're wide open.

01:05:49
Speaker 2: I mean he ha's air craft multiple times in the middle of the field. Wide open. Yeah, how was the middle of the feld?

01:05:54
Speaker 1: And what was the last name of that receiver? Number thirteen to the.

01:05:57
Speaker 2: Weeks Wi Wix Wicks bro buddy, they I'm thinking who is this guy? Top fifteen plays, the first fifteen plays of the game he played. Those are games that you're like, we're gonna run this, We're for sugaring win this. We feel good about having success on these plays right now, and then we'll see what the defense gives us. Wicks was in the game plan but saying like they were targeting him. They see something in him that maybe the rest of us didn't really know about.

01:06:21
Speaker 7: They just have a deep receiver room.

01:06:23
Speaker 8: Well yeah, they have a bunch of receivers that like say exactly like Will said, who is this guy?

01:06:28
Speaker 2: Right?

01:06:28
Speaker 1: Yeah?

01:06:28
Speaker 8: And Christian Watson's still out he's going to be coming back. And and what's Jayden Reid depending on what's wrong with him? Like their receiver room.

01:06:36
Speaker 1: Jane Rebrokes Calbo, Yeah, he go one thing.

01:06:40
Speaker 2: It's like Flowers and Matt Lafleur real quick like he was at the Rams. He was like the OC, but at Friend of the Show, Friend of the Show, he was the OC. Sean McVay is obviously calling the players at the Rams. He comes to the Titans for one year and calls the plays and then gets the head coaching job with the Packers. Like that's a crazy fast transition from a guy who's not calling plays to one year calling plays to now calling place and it seems like he just has he has offense figured out in the NFL from a scheme standpoint, we were I was looking at I was looking at I think it was twenty eighteen was his year with the Titans, Week two against the Houston Texans that I was out. I got not the Miami game, our other our right tackle was out, Marcus Mariota was out. De Lady Walker was out and we won that game like twenty seven to ten. Because and you you rewatched the game, it's like he's just steaming shit up like he has he doesn't have the players, he doesn't have the guys, but he's still figuring out ways to push the ball in the field and win. Teywan Taylor had like ninety five yards that game.

01:07:41
Speaker 6: He won.

01:07:42
Speaker 3: Willis last year too, right.

01:07:43
Speaker 2: Against the Titans, which is you know, that's a whole different thing. Well we should you know what, we haven't heard from Jack McPherson for a long time. Let's jump into this. Rams beat the Titans thirty three to nineteen. It's tough. I'll tell you what, if you're a Titans fan, if whenever Jack sway, but if you're a Titans fan, you've got a quarterback, like you've got a guy that you can win with, and if you have the pieces around him, and you have the right calls, and you have the right coaching staff, like, you can win with cam Ward. Kid doesn't flinch. He's one to sit in the pocket when the when the pass rush is coming down on him, he's he's keeping his eyes downfield. He has enough shiftiness to kind of get out of stuff. Like I really like cam Ward. I'm really excited about cam Ward in his future. My fear is cam Ward's future because he gets what nine sacks, ten sacks in the first two games.

01:08:36
Speaker 5: We've actually, i think doubled our sacks from the first three games last year, and we thought that was bad.

01:08:43
Speaker 7: And it's like we have a new offensive line.

01:08:45
Speaker 2: You have a new offensive line, but jac LA's hurt. You could obviously tell it. Jacon Lathan being hurt was a big deal. Dan Moore not the best day yesterday.

01:08:54
Speaker 1: I think Scronsky Dan or No, yeah, yeah, Dan, Yeah, didn't have a great day.

01:09:01
Speaker 2: That's Koransky, though. I thought you it's not like it's complete chaos. We got to do a better job of chips and shifts and motions and all these things to kind of slow down defensive lines. It seems like we need you guys to get a little bit more confidence.

01:09:13
Speaker 1: We need more depth, need more depth.

01:09:15
Speaker 2: When are we going to see Corey eleven question?

01:09:17
Speaker 5: I swear I thought yesterday we were gonna put Corey in at center and shift everyone over.

01:09:21
Speaker 2: Budd it was so bad. Is an incredibly well kept secret by the Tantasy Titans. I just think when whenever he's gone into games, playing with him or watching him like he is good he is good enough.

01:09:35
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that. That was That was a lot of my career. Such a good kept secret that you want to keep it his secret. Yeah, he's got to see Corey get out there and spin right.

01:09:43
Speaker 5: Got it was eleven sacks in two weeks and been flagged twenty three times. For one hundred and ninety three years.

01:09:48
Speaker 2: That's the problem, man. You guys' penalties are just crazy. Our penalty apology gave us twenty three pressures. Yeah it's I thought they played hard though, Yeah, they played hard like the worst j Yeah.

01:10:07
Speaker 6: Yeah, Kelly honestly had a couple of decent moments.

01:10:11
Speaker 2: But stuff, man, good time to say. October fifth, We're doing a watch party with the test It Titians.

01:10:18
Speaker 6: Okay, this actually is one of the few positives of this weekend. I'm in the stadium yesterday and I'm walking to halftime and over the entire concourse announced busting with the boys and the Titans will do an official tail geate at Brooklyn Bowl. And that was cool to hear. And we were just taken the lead. So there was one shining moment. And I don't really have much say about the game yesterday, but I am nervous. We have the Colts coming up, obviously divisional games, and the Colts look good. And if Indiana Jones stomps us, I might go in my a for a minute.

01:10:47
Speaker 1: Indiana Jones might be nice.

01:10:49
Speaker 6: He might be nice, but he is nice.

01:10:52
Speaker 1: Is nice? See, I haven't watched the Colts enough to have like that, because I'm like, yeah, I mean, it seems like the Cults are playing well. I watched the end of that game where I'm like, oh, Broncos the leverage penalty at the end.

01:11:03
Speaker 2: I see, I didn't see the leverage penalty.

01:11:05
Speaker 3: It was so blatant too.

01:11:07
Speaker 1: He is literally just yeah, field goal to win the game. They go out there and he shanks it wide right, but laundry on the field and Broncos had a leverage penalty where the guy over the center ends up putting his hands on the center's back and trying to jump up. Called it. They move it up. What was it ten ten yard penalty? Ten or fifteen yard penalty? They go up, they rekick it, boom, walk off, win the game.

01:11:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's one that's gonna bite the Broncos quite a bit because you're that division that they're in. Exactly see what happens tonight with the Chargers and Raiders. But like, there's some good squads in there, and the Chiefs are looking human.

01:11:42
Speaker 6: Yeah, and so they are looking real human.

01:11:44
Speaker 1: I see, all right, Chiefs looking human? Who they got this week? Bring up the schedule?

01:11:54
Speaker 7: What I feel? I mean, they're Zering too. But they've played two really good teams and they've games have come down to the wiry a lot like last year.

01:12:03
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Chief schedules kind of fucked. They play the Giants, Ravens, Jags, Lions.

01:12:09
Speaker 2: Like they beat the Giants. I know, Russell Wilson had a great day yesterday and they were.

01:12:15
Speaker 1: Like the Ravens than this is a this is a must win on the Giants though, Like I know, I know, I do the thing, but I'm saying, like, yeah, you're right again, Giant, they should.

01:12:23
Speaker 2: Be for sure again the last four years of you talking that, we're gonna learn to erase that because this is this is real. Like if you don't go and stomp the Giants, yes, then you are truly in danger.

01:12:35
Speaker 1: Because it's coming from him.

01:12:37
Speaker 2: But yes, yea, Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes like Travis like the you know, kind of bops the ball in the air, ends up getting intercepted. That's heartbreaking. But like when you have those guys like they shouldn't have been in that game. They don't have the personnel of the talent to be in that game with the Eagles, and their defense stood up a lot of the game. I know they score kind of like a touchdown at the end to make it seem a little close than it was, But like that first half, like you're watching, it's like, this is what the Chiefs have to be right now. With Rice being out, with Xavier Worthy being out, it's like you can't, like they don't have a run game. And I'll say this, dude, it is so difficult to impose your will from a physicality run game standpoint when you haven't done it for so long. Like that's why identity is so important. You have to have a running identity because if you don't and you need it at some points, you're going you're probably going to fail.

01:13:30
Speaker 3: It's impossible.

01:13:33
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, dud, I mean they were.

01:13:36
Speaker 7: It was the.

01:13:38
Speaker 2: And honestly, like the Chiefs running the ball is doing those quick five yard hitches and just quick ball out super fast that you're going to tight windows, get him in there, and Patrick Mahomes can do it for you. That's why the Chiefs are never out of it. But if you don't take care of the giants, the narrative will start to shift. Because right now, I think a lot of people are on my stet where it's like yather on two. We know twelve and a half percent of making the playoffs when you start going too. But it's still the Chiefs. You didn't beat the Giants, buddy.

01:14:06
Speaker 1: It's not though, and not from the hating standpoint, but from a team stand how how's Hollywood Brown? Did he come back in the gamers? He yeah, he came back in the games, okay, but the health of this team, bro, Like, when Hollywood Brown went down, I'm like, like, who who does he got outside of Travis Juju Smith?

01:14:23
Speaker 8: Guy?

01:14:25
Speaker 2: Is that number eighty eighty money? They had one too that Pat overthrew.

01:14:30
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Eagles had some yips in the secondary on that one too, where he bombs down on the route.

01:14:37
Speaker 8: There was a lot of time left in the game. So if they hit that like and the Chiefs get a stop, like, they still have the ball with like four or five minutes left.

01:14:44
Speaker 2: People, people got to appreciate what Patrick Mahomes is doing with who is Pat two?

01:14:48
Speaker 1: Put one in a nice spot? Tough catch? Where is it?

01:14:51
Speaker 7: Thornton?

01:14:52
Speaker 1: He goes up to get it, ends up dropping the ball to where it would have been a big play. But for me, it's just like, man, he doesn't have a whole lot of weapons, but this is they gotta have this one. And again the Eagles fall start on every touch push.

01:15:06
Speaker 2: Yeah, that one that was crazy, but it's also the.

01:15:09
Speaker 1: Two back there was. There was that one and then the second one that I saw where was in like was it the fourth quarter where they were in the touch push and got it to where I think two guys fall started and the goal line one that was the right guard, and then in the fourth quarter one it was like two guys are false started, like that play, that play, it needs to be done.

01:15:29
Speaker 2: I see, I think you gotta beat it. You got you gotta figure out.

01:15:31
Speaker 7: But it's getting to the point.

01:15:34
Speaker 1: Saying I guys, I don't know how to help you anymore. I don't like officiating this play.

01:15:38
Speaker 2: People are like, oh, the sinners lined up like over the ball, Like there's penalties everywhere on this plane. I understand, but it's like, how is it cheating.

01:15:46
Speaker 1: Because they're they're false starting, they're not calling out no.

01:15:48
Speaker 2: No. The false start was crazy. But it also goes back to like last year, the year before the year before that. How many times do the chiefs like they're getting calls they're getting calls or getting calls, And is that now the script changing a little bit that Chiefs aren't getting these types of calls because that was a blatant penalty that was not taking care of and he got two refs on both sidelines staring down that line of scrimmage.

01:16:07
Speaker 5: For the Chiefs next six games, four of them are primetime.

01:16:12
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, great football coming up, crazy great football, great football coming up.

01:16:18
Speaker 1: Yes, Bro didn't even have one hundred yards. He said, shut your ass up. We beat you and we still want Yeah, yeah, just be mad they lost. Let me take a shot somehow. How can I how can I try to get in this man you see on.

01:16:37
Speaker 2: The sideline too, Chris Jones losing his mind early in the game, Travis Kelce.

01:16:41
Speaker 1: A couple of times.

01:16:42
Speaker 2: It's like these older guys know their window is closing, and it's closing faster than they might have thought it was.

01:16:48
Speaker 1: But that's the urgency you need if you're on that side.

01:16:51
Speaker 2: That's the leadership you need, because it's like you're looking at these younger cats being like, Bro, we need we need you to do this because I don't have a whole lot of time.

01:16:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, to win by thirty They buddy.

01:17:02
Speaker 2: They need a They need a big time buddy for the narrative to change. I'm telling you, this has got to be a double digit win, minimum ten.

01:17:16
Speaker 1: That might be a bold prediction to Giants upset the Chiefs.

01:17:22
Speaker 2: Giants. Giants aren't having that type of success on the off side of the ball with the Chiefs.

01:17:26
Speaker 1: They are not the way they just performed against Dallas.

01:17:29
Speaker 2: Buddy, they are not having that type of success.

01:17:32
Speaker 1: I didn't think that they were gonna have that type of success against Dallas. And Russell Wilson's out there throwing for over four hundred yards at a hundred six Yeah, scataboo first touchdown, legacy and two matchup on Sunday night, dak In that offense looks really good. Yeah, they just think got to have the defense need something. Do we concerned the Cowboys for some death for past rushing? Yeah, never know, never know.

01:18:05
Speaker 2: And he is I mean generational talent. The question is going to be how bad does Clowney want it?

01:18:12
Speaker 1: Yeah?

01:18:12
Speaker 2: Right? Is this a check or is this a legacy play for him? Yeah?

01:18:18
Speaker 7: That?

01:18:18
Speaker 2: But also yeah, but which one? Which one?

01:18:21
Speaker 1: D do we go? Moment of silence for Joey b do we go moment of silence for Joey b.

01:18:33
Speaker 2: Love you, Joe, Love you Joe. Future Friends of the Show grab.

01:18:35
Speaker 1: With three full rupture turf toe surgery three months. This season is done for the Bengals, even though Browning.

01:18:45
Speaker 2: Browning nice when when Joe hasn't been in, like Jake kind of stands up and you're down against the Jags when you get.

01:18:52
Speaker 1: Hurt, I still like my I think Jags are.

01:18:57
Speaker 2: You don't worried about Cone yelling and Trevor Lawren give him the wave off?

01:19:01
Speaker 1: No, no, did you watch the sequence of plays?

01:19:03
Speaker 5: No?

01:19:04
Speaker 2: So I did, but it was on like the four panels. I get so over a stimulated when there's that many games on, it's hard for me to really digestible.

01:19:10
Speaker 1: So there's a lot of like underground lore with Jacksonville going on. You got Brian Thomas Junior, Like does he have the haves people talking about as he dropping the ball on purpose? I don't think that's true at all, but you know he had a shot to hit like this on that play was actually a drop ball by Brian Thomas. It just wasn't. It didn't hit him in the chest. He like sat it down in between cover two, and he threw it a little bit on the outside to where Brian Thomas could have still grabbed it. He might have taken a look, but he could have still grabbed the ball. He goes out, reaches for it, drops it and kind of like brings his body in to where he would have got hit. That was on second and fourteen. They would have had a third and manageable because they end up getting yards back on third down, but they're going into score to where it's twenty four to twenty four, right or was it twenty seven to twenty four at this time twenty four four four? It was twenty seven to twenty four PI. No, okay, yes, yeah, you're right, it's twenty seven to twenty and so they went fourth on fourth down, it was fourth and five, so it was third and fourteen they end up getting They run the ball and get all the way down to the fourth and five, and so they go for it and the ball like that's a touchdown? Does it? Was it Brian Thomas who drops the ball in the end zone?

01:20:17
Speaker 2: Was it him?

01:20:18
Speaker 1: It might have been number seven.

01:20:20
Speaker 2: I think it was number seven.

01:20:21
Speaker 1: Yeah, it could have been number seven, but drops a touchdown? I thought think he was number five, five, seven, single digit whatever. Anyway, they have him wide open in the end zone and they dropped the ball on the enzone to where they would ic the game. They have to settle for. Oh, they turn the ball over and that's when the Bengals go down and win the game. But Jacksonville had every opportunity to win the game. Another one when they were tied twenty four to twenty four, balls placed beautifully in the end zone, my man drops the ball, drops a touchdown tour on that one, they have to settle for a field goal, so then they only go twenty seven to twenty four. And again they had that shot to where Cohen's over there, like hit him in the chest. Who knows if it's a yips thing with Brian with Brian Thomas, don't know if it's like bro He's right there, just put the ball in his chests. A very emotional moment. I think between two guys who understand each other and they have like a good rapport, I think they just expect excellence. Trevor Lawrence comes out in the press conference after the game, doesn't give it a whole lot of fodder. He's just like you know, he enjoys Coach Cohen. He's like, I think he's elevated me a lot, like in that area of urgency and like frustration whatever it is. But I think that was just a little scuffle that people are trying to make a lot about it. I think that they're gonna be good.

01:21:23
Speaker 2: Bro.

01:21:24
Speaker 1: I think Trevor Lawrence ne's to hit some throws where he's got. You know, he does a couple of things where people are like, it's like, hey, what is he doing here? Like where he threw a pick or two? One was like wild how much he under threw it. But Trevor Lawrence can put the ball around. They had five drop balls yesterday. Like, I think the Jags are good. I think the Jags are gonna be nice. Hey, the Begels are dead Browning again. You don't know even when he went on that stint when Joey b was out, what was it last year a couple of years ago, he played well, you never know, you got weapons t Higgins and Jamar Chase on the outside. Defensively, who knows if that defense is gonna you know, right now they're average.

01:21:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're talking about all the drops the like crazy inner perceptions that Trevor Lawrence had and like you love the fact that Hedgerson steals the game at the end with that sack. Yeah, but it's like still, we're now going into week three and I don't know what to make of the Bengals defense. Yeah, because they play the Browns. Obviously we know the Browns are bad, and then they play this game and it's like, Okay, they're down fourteen to seven when Joe Burrow goes back, goes in the game, Jake Browning comes in, does a great job. He's obviously a bunch of weapons around him. But like, at some point the Bengals defense has to stand down. Yeah, but is it like is it because juguars penalties? Is it because of drops? Is it because interceptions? Or is it because the Bengals defense is good.

01:22:32
Speaker 1: I think the Bengals will be a lot like they were last year, defense a little bit better and offense not getting as much production. But I think they'll be in the hunt because we're gonna talk about the Steelers. Who knows if the Steelers are good because Bill's just got the doors or blew the doors off of the Jets. They get the Steelers get handled by Seattle. I don't think the division is that strong with the Browns, the Steelers. Ravens are obviously a Jugger or not, but I think they'll kind of be like a similar team to where you know what they're gonna squeak out a win, you don't know what's gonna be. But I think their defense is a little bit better. But I think their offense obviously gonna take a big production hit with Joey b not being out there.

01:23:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, obviously anytime Joey's out the field here.

01:23:07
Speaker 5: In Bengals next four games at the Vikings, at the Broncos, home against the Lions, at the Packers.

01:23:14
Speaker 1: So you have to win and then the Milers after that. You have to win against Minnesota this week, and Minnesota will light them up. They'll be aggressive defensively.

01:23:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're gonna Minnesota's defense is really good. They're gonna keep them in games the rest of the year while JJ has to figure it out's got to figure himself.

01:23:28
Speaker 1: Cool drink a little too fast list. I drank it because I was, like a lot of people did.

01:23:33
Speaker 2: I have never in my life seen somebody have the first half they did, and in the fourth quarter he does, like having that much of a one to eighty from like looking completely lost to looking like, oh, this kid seems like he's been the league for ten years and knows what he's doing, and then you go to this game, it's like maybe the Falcons are nice though, Falcons arej Yeah, John Robinson is nice, Drake London's nice. Pitt's playing more on the outside looks nice.

01:23:58
Speaker 1: Yeah, like Penni is a ball or in. Defensively, I think in Week one they might had zero or one sack. Last night they had what six. The talent showed up on the D line.

01:24:07
Speaker 2: That's a product of Minnesota holding on the ball. Jersey holding on the ball quite a bit because Minnesota is off the line. Is nice.

01:24:13
Speaker 8: The Falcons also they had too. They have two first round draft picks on their D line with Jalen Walker and JPJ. Yeah, they're they're young, and they're like that Bobby the guy who had like almost two picks yesterday.

01:24:26
Speaker 3: Like they have some unknown guys that are yes, thirty three right, Yeah, Bobby.

01:24:30
Speaker 2: Found I think he knows what he's doing.

01:24:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, Falcons could be tough.

01:24:35
Speaker 2: Falcons could be could be tough.

01:24:36
Speaker 1: And Bijehon is so good bro, just at everything, at everything, like he's good for He's gonna make the first person miss no matter what. It is wild to watch.

01:24:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it might be a little bit. Emma Johnson, you're running back.

01:24:51
Speaker 1: Oh oh, Emma Johnson.

01:24:53
Speaker 2: He's like a cat that you have to have. Sound second that.

01:24:55
Speaker 1: They said Avery Johnson, No, no.

01:24:59
Speaker 2: No oh, but yeah that the Jags. Man. I think it depends what we see to night from the Texans. Well, they put up nine points against the Rams. I mean now they're playing at home against the Bucks coming off an emotional win. Bucks come off emotional win, Like Wharfs is out? I think is Nico out? Questionable? Questionable? Tank Dell is still out. Like it's like if if the Texans can't win this one against Baker, which is it's a little bit of an uphill battle, Jags might be your front runner.

01:25:32
Speaker 1: Like they looked they looked the most complete.

01:25:34
Speaker 2: All the time. Yeah what am I talking about the Colts? I like the Colts.

01:25:38
Speaker 1: The thing with the Texans. You talk about their offensive weapons, but that d line is nuts.

01:25:43
Speaker 2: Daniel Hunter and Will Anders.

01:25:46
Speaker 1: From Adam Schefty, how about this? The Colts are the first team in the Super Bowl Era to not punt in either of their first two games in a season.

01:25:55
Speaker 3: They scored every time they've had the ball.

01:25:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean Daniel Daniel Jones. Like the what's the head coach? Who's the head coach the Colts. Shane Steikeen, he was they were talking about. He's talking about Daniel Jones and like his preparation, how he works, and like he might not be like you know, the guy like long term whatever it is, but he's a dude that's going to get the ball to his playmakers and be efficient on every single play and you see, Yeah, you know, I'm going to say, like that's his what sunny he said?

01:26:27
Speaker 3: What he said?

01:26:28
Speaker 2: I think I like the Colts and I think their defense is good.

01:26:31
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones coming in the league when he was at the Giants, they talk about all the talent he had. He's got the body, he can run a little bit, he can he's got a big arm. He was on a pod recently and giving a lot of flowers to coach Kevin O'Connell at the Vikings for the time, the short time he had with the Vikings about just the preparation and the detail and everything else. Who knows. I'm sure he picked up some some tips on like his studying, preparing things that have helped him kind of transition into his new situation with the Colts. Danny Dimes might be he might be nice. It might be nice, not that nice, not that nice.

01:27:09
Speaker 2: Yeah, a gonna be interesting one to see out unfold, especially after the night.

01:27:13
Speaker 1: Texans might I'm not sure. In the fan duel, I know when I took him yesterday, they were favored by two and a half tonight going into playing home at home against the Bucks. I still like that game. The d This d line is crazy. I cannot wait to watch him. Raves got his first.

01:27:31
Speaker 2: I took you. I took your parlay. Would you have Baker Mayfield anytime touchdown? And who else? Mike Evans, it's a crazy one. Put a little I'll put a little bombski on that one, too, sure any really, dude? First off, yesterday was my best day ever gambling and it was not me. I took a the twelve o'clock slate. I took five five favorite teams, and I hit that five light parlay. You go there with the Cowboys gran For a minute, that was the only one that I cooked up myself. But Jack put a nice one in there that I bet Clump hit me with.

01:28:06
Speaker 1: Who was it?

01:28:08
Speaker 2: Davante Adams took that and I put like, I just like threw I just threw a hail Mary out there for because I've been getting kind of worked a little bit in the Fandal Sports book that one hits go back hit JK. Dobbins in the three clock Slate like it was a day will you go to bed? You look at me like I'm never gonna suffer financial.

01:28:29
Speaker 4: Basically I need to start following you then no no, no, no no, or following the group.

01:28:34
Speaker 2: Follow Clump, yeah, really follow the group when the comes in with the parlays, like even if they contradict my views, up, I put something on it because I kind of just want like, hey, we're all in this.

01:28:45
Speaker 1: Together, and if one hits, we all one persons, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, same, That's what I'll bet all of them.

01:28:54
Speaker 2: And then I'll go and look and be like all right, that's what I have that going on right now.

01:28:57
Speaker 1: So, yeah, the ones who I've clicked on the matter what has been clumped just because he had a great weekend last weekend on Yeah, I.

01:29:05
Speaker 2: Think only one clump gave me that didn't hit was a j Brown anytime touchdown.

01:29:08
Speaker 1: Yeah, Hey, the Dereck Henry one didn't hit. I know, what do you have?

01:29:12
Speaker 2: Like fourteen yards of.

01:29:13
Speaker 1: Rushing eleven touches? Like yeah, not yet.

01:29:16
Speaker 2: But it also says a lot about the Ravens offense, like, oh, Dereck Henry, the guy you're gonna give the ball to, hopefully twenty times a game. The whole success given this fourth or fifth step, like that didn't work. What did work was Lamar Jackson throwing the ball and like, yeah with Miles, Yeah so funny. I taketed Caleb after that. That's so fucking funny.

01:29:35
Speaker 1: Bro.

01:29:36
Speaker 2: The gas station thing is so funny. But yeah, dude, like the Ravens are real, are real. They're continue to do that because like you see that you put the Browns film on the like, oh, they can beat you any way you want, anyway anything you want to stop, they'll do the other thing. And they're they're willing to do whatever it takes. Sucks that they're calling out fourteen yards though, because he is in my fantasy. Luckily, I'll still take home to w this week.

01:29:58
Speaker 5: Did that guy kind of win the.

01:30:01
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah did he I mean you got the brakes blown off you still, but you know, all in all, it's like Derek's revenge in his mind. He had to take a little bit of me.

01:30:10
Speaker 2: With that earl Thomas stiff on, Yeah, making me lead blocker type of thing, and he wasn't able to get it.

01:30:15
Speaker 1: Rave gets his first win.

01:30:17
Speaker 2: Ray gets a big win, Big Health Special teams. Yeah huge, And I love I love that Raves body bagged what's the owner's name, Craft, rubber Craft kind of body bag like. Raves comes in, guys, it's about the team. He's doing his whole vrablisms. Kraft walks in and goes, I'm gonna call an audible real quick. He's like, yep, absolutely. Craft starts talking about how first we love him as a player, won three Super Bowls, him as a coach, gives him the game ball the whole time, my steard that double gen things just kind of like looking at his notes and thank you. Hey, listen, this is not about me. This ball is not about me. It's about the team. It will always be about the body bags. Craft into his speech about it's never about me and then just starts tossing out game balls like their tic tacks to all the boys. It was it was a good win. It was a good win. I think it says a lot about where the Miami Dolphins are headed. Do you see McDaniels post game? You see the photo of the plane. There was a plane with one of those like big like strips or whatever that's at fire. McDaniels on it and they're like, did you see that? And he's like like it was a wordy, fumbling over answer to basically say no, I didn't like the fans want to win games.

01:31:28
Speaker 1: What he did see it?

01:31:29
Speaker 5: Though?

01:31:29
Speaker 2: Right you're saying they didn't see it.

01:31:32
Speaker 1: Do you believe that there?

01:31:34
Speaker 2: It is right there?

01:31:35
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna get shaky for Miami. Yeah.

01:31:38
Speaker 2: I think Miami is in a big sup and they also have a short week against the Bills. Miami Boys not a team you want to see, bro not a team you want Yeah, especially when they had kind of a tougher defensive game in Week one and then turn around against a Jets team that balled out against the Steelers, who's supposed to be the Steelers even sad they have the most money invested in defense in the entire league. And they bawled out. So you go to that game being like, hey, maybe Justin Fields is generational, maybe he's the guy, and then you put your hold him the three points.

01:32:09
Speaker 1: Yeah he got hurting and the Tyrod Taylor came in, but both had very similar success against that defense. The Bills basically mopped the Jets in a way to where you know the win they had against the Ravens where it was like all Josh Allen, like Josh Allen didn't even have to do much like the run game with James Cook. Defensively, they bowled out. I mean they handled handled the Jets. Yeah, handled to where they're asking coach Aaron Glenn after the game what would make this a successful season? His answer is just if the fans will be you know, if they're proud. Yeah, if the fans are proud of the way we played football.

01:32:42
Speaker 2: They know that it's another year of being a Jets.

01:32:44
Speaker 5: Fans are proud regardless and culture.

01:32:48
Speaker 2: Yeah, your take on the Bears, it's similar to the Jets, Like you just kind of feel for him because they have a fan base that loves, like gets excited every single thing has the hope has like the one and they just can't fucking figure it out.

01:33:01
Speaker 1: Man, But I feel like too, if you're in New York, you can sneak go. You know, all giants suck. The Giants are that good too, But you gotta I feel like other stuff going on, friend Brown, I mean Chicago or you just become an Illinois fan.

01:33:14
Speaker 2: Illinois Champagne Illinois.

01:33:18
Speaker 1: Champagne Illinois.

01:33:19
Speaker 2: I mean, what are they ring like eight? Now they played Duke Illinois nine.

01:33:27
Speaker 1: And the thing too that again the Jets, like Justin Fields is your quarterback here? First year head coach? Yeah, you had that Aaron Rodgers Motmore runs up the flag and then he gets hurt. I feel like that video that always comes around is always so funny. But with the with the Bears, bro, it's like you had, like, this is the number one overall pick in that class. Who's your quarterback? You know what I mean? And it's just you feel like you got an offensive minded head coach. You know, people are kind of saying the roster is not that good, like you have some good veterans on that team, you have what seemed what seemed to be like a solid ross like they're the Huskers every year in the offseason in fact you win the offseason and you kind of just don't know what to say. You're gonna get the same goal around stuff on just fields needs to fix this, like here are a few plays like it's just it's just there's it's so beyond that.

01:34:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, the expectation is much lower in the Jets facility than it is in the Chicago facility leading.

01:34:18
Speaker 1: Up of the season. Yeah, I get that.

01:34:19
Speaker 2: I just wonder what Ben Johnson. I wonder truly what Ben Johnson and Caleb their relationship is, because Ben didn't choose him like Ben Ben did in Stanley Tail that we want this guy he's coming in as the head coach, but he.

01:34:34
Speaker 1: Kind of did choose him. Though. If you're going to take that job, you know that's gonna be like that's the guy that you gotta get going.

01:34:40
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's like, who's the Devi's coordinator for the forty nine ers. Sala is how you say it, sala He goes and takes the Jets job because coordinators want to be head coaches. So a lot of times it's like you're kind of going or taking what you can get. You're going into division. You've obviously proved that you can call plays and do it, and you see the scripted plays that they have. Caleb does a great job with those script the place and then it once he doesn't necessarily know what the next play is going to be called, you run issue and there's a bunch of ad libbing going on, and then yeah, Danie Lofski talking about the eyes leading the fiends at the feet leave in the eyes whatever the correct term is. And it's like you can see the frustration on Ben Johnson's face where he kind of has like the Shanahan like he's not Geigaly Lafy guy, Like he's like, we're here to fucking win.

01:35:21
Speaker 1: And so it's it's he coached against killed, you know, twice a year being in that division. It's like a job that was open too is Jacksonville and it's like Trevor Lawrence is down there. You see Liam Calm going and getting that job. And last year Ben Johnson was in the carousel for like coaching jobs and everything else, and he chose to stay with the Lions.

01:35:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jacksonville, Saints, who else, Bears, Jets were other teams that needed a head coach.

01:35:49
Speaker 1: I can't remember.

01:35:52
Speaker 2: I think that that might be Raves Patriot, but the Patriots job was of Raves from the kid. Yeah yeah, So it's like, yeah, you wannaed some tier talk, Let's hit some tier talk. Let's hear from the fans a little bit. Sure what you got for us?

01:36:04
Speaker 1: Man, tier talk? You want to get featured on the show, just use hashtag tier talk before you know, obviously by Monday morning, we will you'll have a chance to be featured on the show. We will read your tweets, you know, while we're doing the show.

01:36:18
Speaker 2: First ones for you. Not my real name man Nick at Night.

01:36:22
Speaker 1: I gotcha. So from Nick and Knight nine hashtag tier talk. Will Compton, what win streak is more impressive Michigan's four game win streak over Ohio State or the four game win streak over Nebraska. That's very mean. That hurts.

01:36:41
Speaker 2: Unbiasedly, I feel like it's Ohio State, Like again, what was the record before that we were against them?

01:36:49
Speaker 1: Yeah, like that's the that's the game. That that that matters the most for Michigan. Yeah, that's the game.

01:36:55
Speaker 2: But that hurt.

01:36:56
Speaker 1: Nonetheless, thanks not my real name, no profile photo, and nothing about you your personal life on there, but that that hurt. Well done, d Fish at d Fish Raiders fan here again are the Commanders in the dirt, especially with the news of Jane Daniels being injured on top of the offense looking so far out of sync. Hashtag to your top.

01:37:18
Speaker 2: What is Jaane Daniel's injury?

01:37:21
Speaker 1: He got a blimpin during the game. It felt like it was his ankle or foot.

01:37:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, but I lovely a little light boy, Yeah, a little light maybe some soft tish, Yeah, a little soft tish. Look a little crack and old. Yeah, category, he'll be all right. They'll get going again. If you're listening earlier, I'm sure you were. I feel like the Packers are just a jugger out of a team.

01:37:41
Speaker 1: Yeah, very good.

01:37:42
Speaker 2: I agree with all that the Commanders. I picked them to win the East. It doesn't look good. Eagles look really good, But I'll say I think they're gonna be just fine. Benford's face tats BC face tats says, how would the defensive mastermind that is at Will Confton stop the toush push hashtag t.

01:37:59
Speaker 1: Your I got a couple of opinions on the tier talk linebackers need to stop jumping, they need to stop leaving their feet. You gotta you know you're gonna get in the four point stands, you're gonna low man's gonna win against across the across the line of scrimmage. But the difference is offensively, you got people pushing from behind. And you know, Coach Ko, my linebacker, coach A. Washington used to always talk about this, like whenever a QB sneak happens, and trying to jump over the pile, the many you leave your feet, you're at mercy of the pile pushing you back. Like if you're in that second level and say you're not in a gap to where you're trying to push the bocket that way and you're just behind defensive lineman, you have to push the defensive lineman versus trying to jump over the pile and make a play. The backers are not going to look like Troy Polamalley where you're jumping over the pile, you're ripping at the quarterback's face and you're gonna bring him back. You have to get behind one of your fat boys up front and you have to push. You have to stop boring about doing damage and making the play the way you make the play on this the second level. If you're not in a gap, you have to push your fellow d linemen in front of you. And then the moment it happens, they're gonna hand the ball off, they're gonna be on that.

01:39:00
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna say, when did the Eagles now just do a little That's.

01:39:02
Speaker 1: What I'm saying. This Toush push is damn near impossible.

01:39:07
Speaker 7: Would a ray Lewis Ravens defense or toy Paul Miles Steelers defense be able to stop the Toush push? Do you think not?

01:39:13
Speaker 1: If they're jumping, I'm telling you that's the key ingredient. You see it every you see it everywhere.

01:39:18
Speaker 2: At drunk Duck co says this is for JP Hofey, is South Carolina staving all their jews for Coctober or just fraudulent football team? Hashtarg tear talk.

01:39:27
Speaker 7: You already know the answer to that, and Coctober might start a little early.

01:39:33
Speaker 2: Just a few days away from Spootober Boys, a few days away from.

01:39:38
Speaker 1: Get that cock out, Yeah next week, take cock out early man next week.

01:39:43
Speaker 2: Doctor Doozler says, hashtag tear talk. What are the possibilities built Nebraska and Vanny make the playoffs? I'm thinking pretty high as of right now.

01:39:51
Speaker 1: As of right now, I would say right now I saw Vandy's I know, if you're a Nebraska fan, I feel like the possibilities right now are probably sitting around.

01:40:04
Speaker 2: Nebraska three and zero, still not ranked. They need to get ranked to make the playoffs. I like Vandy. If they keep doing what they're doing, could they win the SEC?

01:40:13
Speaker 1: What do they do next year?

01:40:16
Speaker 7: Nobody's gonna want to come play for collectly. Yeah, Clark for sure, maybe even a better quarterback than Pop.

01:40:23
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll say this, but Nebraska ten and two is still wide open. Everything's right in front of your ten and two is still there. We got here? Is vice issues morea McCarthy or the awful old line play. Either way, it's frustrating to watch so many offensive weapons go to waste. Little Colum may call him B we talked about earlier. I think JJ's holding on to the ball a little bit longer. He's taking a little too long to dissect the defense and make crucial, fast decisions. It is the offense line, Like, listen, you you've got a there's a finite amount of time that you have to block for, and your quarterback needs to get it out. So I put this more on JJ at this point than I win in the offensive line.

01:40:59
Speaker 1: Yeah what he said Parker hockey coach hockey as someone who has suffered horrendous toe injuries at will Compton. How scared should us Bengal fans be?

01:41:11
Speaker 2: Also?

01:41:12
Speaker 1: If he's out, can you make the call to a Jameis Winston or Kirko Bangs to get them in stripes? Hashtag tier talk. I mean, look great, three fully ruptured toe. Burrow's done. Bengals fans should be scared about this year if they had like super Bowl hopes, I don't know if they did have those probably did with Joey b I tell you what interesting thought, does Kirko have some juice left? Jamis Winston? Did you see his uh his interview at in the locker room about being QB three, Like that is as good as it gets. Bro. That is a player like no matter where you're at on the roster. And this has been a guy who is drafted. What was he drafted overall? Was he was one? Overall? One overall? He's been the guy at spots, He's been a backup in spots, He's been in every kind of position, like sitting in a position room to where you know a lot of guys at that point they feel in toil. They don't you know, when you get to QB three, do you even care to have the underdog mentality anymore? Do you want to fight for a position when you know there's a first round pick coming in out of Jackson Dark Russell. Wilson's going to be the guy, So you are going to be the third guy no matter what. I feel like a majority of guys would want to get out of that situation. Jamis answer that question and had a perspective as good as any teammate, any athlete you will ever see, and I strongly recommend any athlete is that there a special young athlete. Listen to Jamis Winston talk about playing football and being a good teammate.

01:42:27
Speaker 2: It's impossible to hate Jamis Willison.

01:42:28
Speaker 7: Impossible. And my favorite part of his answer was like, this is my first time. We're number nineteen. Yeah, what a way to connect the dots of like you gotta be ready for the first time?

01:42:38
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, And he's like everybody wants to be the starter. I loved it. That was incredible.

01:42:42
Speaker 2: Man, This one seems like it's a question for Jack McPherson Dylan on his core Stormer, why does Will continue to disrespect the ball's hightag tear talk.

01:42:52
Speaker 6: I don't think Will's disrestracted the ball. I think he took a logical choice taking Georgia. Will's always supported the balls. There has been a little bit of a fall off since Eckler left, so we'll monitor that. But I don't think we'll disrespect the balls. I think he has a lot of love for him and he just wants to see a good program be great.

01:43:13
Speaker 1: Thank you. That's true, because I didn't know if we were gonna start going at that. Answer couldn't get been any better. But I was gonna say, Jack, do you actually think I'm disrespecting the balls? I don't.

01:43:23
Speaker 6: There was a moment in New York at ESPN where I felt a little slided because of your tone. But at the end of the day, what did I text you on Saturday? Said you were right?

01:43:34
Speaker 1: Yeah he did, like within minutes of that game being over. Yeah, I went the best for Balls Nation, I really do, and my heart was broken.

01:43:42
Speaker 2: Matt Malone facetimed me after the first quarter in the stands. He FACETI, he goes, we're back. I go, okay, Well, let's hope Georgia doesn't score here.

01:43:51
Speaker 6: Well, part of me feels like there's a potential curse coming from that, because he facetimed me and then showed me the next drive and Joey Aguilar through his first pick. So and I said, don't ever call me again and hung up. Wow, but I was happy to use in the stadium. Well, and I I could say.

01:44:14
Speaker 1: A chef's free game video, you wild bro, Just that's the chef, that's a that's a balls fan, that's being that goes beyond the building that I like you. Yeah, I posted chef tweet that too.
