Speaker 2 (00:18):
You know, I was ready to show off my new
hat today. I know it's difficult in an audio medium. Well,
you'll see video of us as well. And then Monty
comes dressed up on a Labor Day wearing a dress.
The hair is done, my hat takes second fiddle.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
You know, I appreciate the compliments.
Speaker 4 (00:37):
I did wash my hair, so you're right. I did
dress up, I washed my hair. I'm excited to be here.
I wish we had some veggie dogs and veggie burgers.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Nothing says Labor Day like a nice vegetable pack hot dog.
Speaker 5 (00:53):
Put it. It's your great summer.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Delicious, delicious, delicious.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
I do you think that the Labor Day cookout gets
the bronze of the Memorial Day Fourth of July cookouts
that you have. Yes, now we kind of move already.
The fall stuff is out and football is here. NFL
Week one we can start officially talking about the games
that are coming up on Sunday. And now we have
week one of the college football season, Monzie, that is
(01:19):
almost in the rearview mirror except for a game tonight
where Bill Belichick makes his debut as the North Carolina
head coach against TCU. But other than that, Week one,
all in the books for college.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
All in the books.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
Your team defending national champion out there proving that they
should have probably been preseason ranking number one.
Speaker 5 (01:39):
I think they made a good statement.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
They made a statement. Absolutely that was not a great game,
but they won. I mean, I'm not gonna lie. There's
no way you sat there and you were like, this
is such a fun guy.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
I had wondered what it was like for fans, and
I think I knew the answer. That didn't have a
dog in the fight, correct, because it was a hyped game.
One versus two, one versus three, depending on which pole
you live by the coaches poul, which is the one
I think is the least popular. More people go by
the eight people, but that the coaches poul had at
one versus two. So let's do one versus two for
(02:11):
the sake of this argument. I was invested as an
Ohio State fan, and I know Texas fans were invested
as they were fans, but I couldn't help think that
the general public, like yourself, that didn't have a dog
in the fight, was saying, this is how I'm kicking
off my college football season a little bit.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I woke up at nine am for this, Yes, love bit.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
Yes on the on the left coast.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Yes on the West coast, definitely.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
And this was another part of the drama of that
game because of the Fox big noon kickoff and Fox
was there, and there's been some controversy at least in
Ohio State's stratosphere of them because they are such a
marquee brand being the top team for Fox to have
all of their games put at noon Eastern time. Because
of the big noon kickoff lead in Ohio State had
(02:57):
wanted to switch the game to a night game. Texas said, no,
we'll play it on Saturday. We'll play it early on Fox,
and that's what ended up happening, and then you had
a game that ends up fourteen to seven Ohio State wins.
But truly, Manzi, for as much as you would think
it would be about the defending national champions It had
nothing to do with the defending national champions.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Oh, absolutely nothing to do The story was the Manning
the other the next.
Speaker 5 (03:25):
And he is and he is.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
He's truly, aside from Bill Belichick, the only story that
has garnered any interest in the preseason leading up to it.
We had a game last night that will dive into
of Notre Dame and Miami and Carson Beck who was
at a Marquee School of Georgia in transfers and gets
his first start with the Miami Hurricanes. That doesn't even
(03:50):
come close to the level of intrigue. Carson Beck was
dating one of the Cavender twins. Yeah, now they're not anymore.
They're not together anymore.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Thank you for the update.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
And that didn't even rise to the level of what
arch Manning has been to college football. Arch Manning didn't
have one hundred yards passing until the fourth quarter of
their game against Ohio State on Saturday.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
He didn't have a pass more than ten yards until
the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
In the air seventeen to thirty one hundred and seventy yards,
the one touchdown late, and an interception that was not
a good interception. This is arch Manning talking about his
own performance in his first start is the Texas quarterback
on Saturday.
Speaker 6 (04:29):
Yeah, it didn't start fast enough. Took a whole half
for us to kind of even get the ball down
the field. So that starts with me. Get back to
square one and then get back Monday and go prepare
for Santasey State. Yeah, ultimately not good enough. Obviously you
don't want to start off season zero to one. They're
a good team. But I thought we beat ourselves a lot,
and that starts with me, and I got to play
better for us to win. Can't wait till the second
(04:50):
half to kind of get things going.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
That's the message from Arch the player, which sounds very
much like a Manning esque Manning esque that. By the way,
the comments that you're hearing from March as well are
the only comments that you're gonna hear that are grounded.
We're gonna hear from Sarka just a second as well.
But everything outside, all of the noise about Arch Manning
was focused on the game on Saturday was truly negative.
(05:13):
And Monzi, I am not even though the team that
I was rooting for beat Texas, I am all in
on Arch Manning. I am completely In fact, I would
double my bet right now with better odds as he
has fallen out of the leading spot for the Heisman.
According to Las Vegas, he is no longer John Mattira
(05:34):
is now your odds on leader player with the shortest
odds of winning the Heisman archers dropped down to sixteen
to one. If I was a betting man, Manzi, I
am moving all in on that. I Am not gonna
take one bad performance in an opening game against the
defending national champions with a brand new defensive coordinator and
still loads of talent on defense that came back from
(05:57):
that national championship team a year ago, and hold it
against arch Manning, especially for what I saw in the
fourth quarter, which is what you alluded to with the
passing yards that he had downfield. Take your shots now
if you want on Arch Manning, because this is going
to be the only time we're going to be.
Speaker 5 (06:15):
Able to do it.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Yeah. I a couple of things with this.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
I very very logical of you, as an Ohio State
fan to not hit the panic button, but the patient's button,
which I'm with you. I'm hit the patient's button here, guys,
like this was against the defendant national champion on their
territory where we have seen very little of Arch Manning.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
I feel I agree with.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
You that the Manning family would not put their son
in this position if they didn't think he was capable
of it. Even that answer himself, they have literally trained him.
You are the quarterback, you take the responsibility when it
goes bad. But in reality, he never got in a rhythm.
Give that up to Ohio, Matt, Patricia, give it up
to whoever you want. They never got in a rhythm
at all. Even you could argue in the fourth quarter,
(07:01):
but like that started the second half, Arch Manning took
them downfield with his legs. He still didn't throw the ball.
They still didn't let him get in a rhythm. Ohio
did not get in a rhythm. Give it up to
Texas punter. There was a couple of kicks that was
making the buck guys not be able to get in
a rhythm.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
You never got in a rhythm in the first half.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Yeah, that's why I was. It was kind of a
boring game when you don't have a dog in the fight.
No one got in a rhythm. There wasn't a lot
of scoring, and by the end of it, I agree
with you. I don't Arch Manning did not look good.
But I'm not hitting the panic button.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I feel that people are wanting to cash in their
chips now, and if they aren't a Manning fan or
not a Manning family fan, that they'll take this opportunity
to tell you I told you so. And I'm fully
aware of that, Manti. I've also said that I thought
that there was a chance if the Saint said the
first overall pick next year, that Arch would declare for
the draft. And I think that there are people are saying, see,
look right now, he's not ready for the NFL. We're
(07:58):
talking four quarters in.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Right, No, because that's they think that's a victory for them. Yes,
that they think that's a victory for them.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
And it's like, come on, y'all, four quarters in like
you in enemy territory, like the first time a season.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Oh, like, what are we doing?
Speaker 5 (08:14):
Correct?
Speaker 4 (08:14):
Nerves could be nerves are okay, this is normal, this
is normal. It's there's no reason, but people just want
to take their own personal victory lap.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
Right now, Let's see where we are in a couple
of weeks.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Let's hear what Steve Sarkizian, Arch's head coach, had to
say after.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
The loss on Saturday about his quarterback.
Speaker 7 (08:32):
The expectations were out of control on the outside. But
I'd say, let's finish the book before we before we
judge it. Right, this is this is one chapter and
we got a long season to go play. The growth
throughout the game for Arch was was really encouraging for me.
We're we're gonna be fine. Like I said, we got
work to do as a team and as an offense,
(08:53):
but ultimately, like I'm getting on the plane knowing we're
gonna be a good football team. And so, hey, we
didn't win tonight. That's the life of a competitor. We
went for it in a tough place against a good team.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
But we'll get we'll get back.
Speaker 7 (09:04):
On the horse, and we'll play good football this season.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
I think that his use of books was amazing, because well,
I only listen to books now reading and just very
very difficult. I used an album as how I looked
at Arch manning for this year. This is the first
song on an album. Now, granted you want.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
An intro song to.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
It was just the intro to it. This For those
of us who had CDs, this was track one, right,
I want we know the hits are track two, track three,
track four, that's what's coming up, and on a great album,
you could listen to song after song after song. This
was track one on arch Manning's album, and I just
(09:52):
feel everybody is now taking a victory lap. We don't
know the type of quarterback he's going to be. We
don't know if arch Manning is going to be or
like Peyton, more like Eli, or more like his grandpa,
who he's named after. The way that he ran the football,
he seems more like Archie than he does of Eli
or Peyton. By the way Eli threw tons of interceptions,
would lead the league in the NFL in interceptions. You
(10:15):
know why because he also didn't have a conscience that
had the confidence enough that I'm gonna make these throws.
I've felt Eli Manning had made Odell Beckham who he
is because there were eighty percent of the quarterbacks of
the NFL that would never make the throws that Eli
would be willing to make. And then you have Peyton,
who was able to dissect defenses through him being basically
(10:36):
a coach on the field and ends up winning two
Super Bowl titles. They are all these different ways to
go because you have one weekend in the spotlight against
the defending national champions, against the new defensive coordinator. And
by the way, Arch could play this year, Arch could
play next year, and as crazy as it sounds, could
play the next year after that if you wanted to
(10:56):
before going to the National Football League. That's what's ahead
for for Arch Manning. It's not just one game, and
I feel we need to pump the brakes. And if
you're like me by now, why you're stocked now when
it dipped after this game, because it's never ever going
to be as low as it was after Saturday's performance.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
You know you've convinced me I'm gonna go a place
event on this heisman because you're right. By the third
quarter he had dropped in the third quarter, had dropped
from favorite to fourth or fifth in the middle of
the game.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
You're so right, because when I listen to an album,
you know.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
I skip the first track usually a lot of times,
and I have no regrets.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
I don't even think about it.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
We are not even gonna think about this game come
a couple of weeks and months from now, because I'm
totally with you, Dan, it will be a footnote I'll
remember that one game I would start how funny, Oh funny.
Even though the score was seven to fourteen, it wasn't
even a blowout.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
It was seven to fourteen.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
In spots where they were stopped at the goal line twice. Yes,
so there were opportunities for Texas to win this game
when you look back at what happens when you look
back at Arch Manning's career. By the way, a lot
of people say it's because of the name on his back.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Oh, absolutely it, By the way.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
It is because you want to know why.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Because in the National Football League, when you're looking at players,
and even in college football, there is nothing more random
than an eighteen to twenty two year old kid. And
if you can have any information or any intel that
guess what, something may not be as random because they
come from a certain pedigree, they come from a certain family.
You're going to take that and that is going to
(12:29):
be a benefit to you. So yeah, so there is
some stock in the Manning name. It's not that we'rely
talking about him because his last name is Manning.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
No, that's not it.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
We're talking about him because of how great the Manning
players have been previously, and he has lived up to
the expectations up to this point, and if you want
to jump ship now because he didn't reach your expectations
in week one, then that's on you because I don't
think that there's any reason of the jump ship on
Arch Manning right now.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
And you know, continuing to what you're saying here, it's
like you, the name Manning is the reason why people
are being patient like us, and at the same time.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Why people are trying to take a victory lap.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
It's the same reason you're trying to take a victory
lap because his name is Arch Manning.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
If his name was Caleb Johnson, you would not be saying, oh,
I was right, I was right. I told you all.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
It goes both ways that you want to be critical,
extra critical because he's a Manning, while some of us
are being patient and telling you relx it was Game
one because of they're both they both are because he's
a Manning.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Can I ask you this question if you were to
say Arch Manning is more of a story because of
A he's great, or would it be B he's not great?
What do you think what is the bigger story with.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Arch Manning that he's great?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Jason Stewart and I had that sort of dilemma. I
agreed with you, you think the bigger stories if Arch
isn't great.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
I do.
Speaker 8 (13:54):
I think that'll be the more interesting story. It was
the aspect of Saturday that I was most rooting for
him to do what he did because it will almost
kind of force our industry to maybe rethink the way
it presents itself. Right, Dan, you brought up this weeks ago,
that even months ago, that the Saints might likely tank
(14:17):
to take Arch manning next spring. I've heard similar things
said matter of factly by people in our industry, not scouts,
not people to do draft projections, but just radio hosts,
debate hosts. And I kept saying, in my mind, what
has Arch done in college to demand that kind of
(14:39):
respect that he is the de facto number one pick
in the draft next season? And the answers to me
were weren't there. So Saturday, in a lot of ways
kind of confirmed to me that why was everyone speaking
so matter of factly about this about this kid? It
(15:00):
was not only unfair to him, and I think the
last time you guys filled in, we were reacting to
his grandpa's comments and that magazine, and I think his
grandpa was attempting to kind of decrease the amount of
hype for this kid, and looking back, I think that
that was a smart play. So anyways, the bigger story
to me, because of who I am, because I do
(15:22):
content for a living, is that he fails, and then
I want to see everybody apologize for their stance. For
matter of fact, he's saying that he's the number one
pick next spring. How do we know what proof has
he given us that he warrants them?
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Because I think that the bar that he has to
reach again with the Manning name and who he is
and what that family has done, gives you at least
some information that other quarterbacks don't know. And it's no
disrespect to cam Ward. It's no disrespect to Caleb Williams.
There isn't the family tree of success. Now he may
(16:03):
not be as good as Eli or Peyton, but at
least you know that there is something there and that
there is something to build on, which I feel what
you're drafting twenty one and twenty two year old kids
is the part of the game as it is. There
is such a risk, so much more in the NBA
because kids are even younger at that point. But anything
(16:23):
that you can take that is given and not an unknown,
is a huge advantage over anybody else, especially at the
quarterback position.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
Yeah, this isn't like a one off family member that
was that had successes at the quarterback position in the NFL.
It's multiple family members. One of arguably the best in
Peyton Manning. You could say, and I guess I am
trusting that they know what they've seen since he was
a little kid growing up to want to be this
(16:51):
that they wouldn't put him in this position if they
didn't think he had it in him. I just I
have to believe that, and that's where it comes. And
even though I hear what you're saying, Jason, if he
was not good, if he was quote unquote a failure,
that would be the bigger story, but for a shorter
amount of time.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
If he is good, then this story will last for
years going into the NFL.
Speaker 4 (17:12):
Him failing would be only so long and then we'd
stop talking about it.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
As crazy as it sounds, this may sound ridiculous, but
I mentioned cam Ward. If arch Manning was in last
year's draft, he would have been the first overall pick. Yeah,
he would have gone ahead of cam Ward. I mean
as as crazy as that sounds, and that's to no
fault of Arch Manning, but I just embedding on everything
that we know. The real heat actually probably comes on
(17:36):
Steve Sarkisian because now you've had Queen Ewers there, who
was thought to be the uber prospect, the highest rated
perfect prospect, goes to Texas, doesn't necessarily stay healthy and
ends up being a late round pick of the Miami Dolphins.
And now you've got Arch Manning from the Manning Tree
coming in and if he doesn't turn into the quarterback
(17:59):
that I think he's going to be, I think that's
such an indictment on Steve Sarkisian. Maybe that's why quarterbacks
are now going to Ohio State to play under Ryan Day,
to play under these guys and seeing how some of
the success is going, because that would be now two
top quarterbacks that Texas hasn't been able to cash in
on and then translate to the next level. I think
(18:20):
there's pressure on Steve Sarkisian to make sure that Arch works.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
I think few people are saying that yes, not yet,
not yet, not yet.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
Right now, it's Manning.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
It's all about Art And by the way, if he
throws for five touchdowns against Oklahoma and the Cotton Bowl
in early October. This will be a distant memory. Be
this will be long gone, and we'll talk about Arch's
arrival to your point. Hitter up at Manzi Blanos, he
got me at Dan Byron Fox. Jason Stewart is here

are Fox Sports college football analysts, host of the Number
one show podcast for Fox Sports. Good friend r J
Young joins us. Hello, RJ Great, Great, are we are
(19:55):
having a great spirited discussion about what transpired in Columbus
on Saturday afternoon? Are you buying low on Arch Manning
or could there be more to come from what we
saw from Arch this past Saturday.
Speaker 10 (20:11):
I think most people, given a few days time, will
come back to there's more to come from Arch Manning.
Who won simple fat. He's not going to play Ohio
State for the next eleven weeks, right, everybody that they played,
for the most part, is either going to be at
that level or below that level. At that level, I'm
thinking about Georgia right after that. I think we're gonna
(20:32):
see the dude grow up. I think that it was
unnerving to play in front of that many hostile fans.
I think that while we were really taking a look
at what Julius Dale was going to do in his
first ever start, this is Arch's first start against a
class college football opponent. I think it's more upsetting as
a Texas fan, not what arch did or didn't do.
But they didn't they got stood up at the goal
(20:53):
line twice. That they were uncharacteristically limped and thought in
the run game when they needed to be better. That
I think would haunt them. But I'm buying on arts meeting.
I think he's going to be a great player.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
Do you give more credit to maybe Matt Patricia or
do you think it was nerves and his first time
out in a hostile environment.
Speaker 10 (21:14):
I think it's got to be a bit of both. Honestly,
I think that Matt Patricia is an outstanding to fits
the coordinator. And while we can talk about arching his nerves,
one of the other things I think is important to
reference here is that's a really great defense he's played too.
I don't just mean the guy called the places. I
mean Caleb Down for some is the best player in
college football. I think he's the second best player in
college football, and the best player in college football is
(21:36):
mostly out in checks and Jeremiah Smith by that Texas defense,
although we played out standing Jermaine mattis former five star
and number one of this big he made the interceptions
running that route to line and me go, I think
it's a bit of both, and I think when both
those things come together, it's going to be really difficult
to beat that team that said they're off fourteen to seven,
not forty nine to seven. Fourteen to seven.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (21:57):
R J.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Young joining us here on Fox Sports Radio talking about
the weekend that was in college football. She's Monzi Blagio.
So I'm Dan Byer in for Doug one more on
that part. Like, I want to give Sark the benefit
of the doubt because of where Texas is. They're a
preseason number one. They're bringing in the players, but you know,
we're talking about James Franklin and his porous record against
(22:18):
top five teams and what's expected of Penn State.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
Does it?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Will it build with Sark because they play this close
game against Ohio State on Saturday they lose to him,
and what was a close game in the Cotton Bowl
in the long runs, previous last game of the season.
At any point do you think he starts to build
on Sark or maybe we start to have conversations around him.
Speaker 10 (22:42):
No, he's got one of the coolest feats in college football,
as was. I'm concerned that Texas program was down and
down bed and he got there, they made two consecutive
College Football Playoff appearances, they made two consecutive conference Championship
game appearances, and he won one in the last couple
of years. And all he's done is recruited is behind
them off to make sure that they keep reloading on
(23:03):
that offense and that defense. I think nobody in Texas
is happy about the loss of Ohio State, But I
also look at Dablins Queen and Clemson. Right they took
a pretty tough loss this weekend too. Nobody wants to
see Dablos Tweeny get out of Clinton. I think it's
going to be very much like that for Texas. They
have an opportunity to put together a great one loss record.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
Let's move on to that top ten match up between
LSU and Clemson, where I think no one really expected
the young LSU team to take on this established defense
with Clemson and come out and win.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
What did you make of it? Were you surprised?
Speaker 10 (23:41):
I was not surprised, Monty. I actually thought this was
going to be a close game. I picked Clemson a
win because coming in the Death Valley is very difficult.
To your point, that is what I think would have
been unnervy but in the way that say Texas was
a bit unnerved by Ohio State. The boys from the
body you just were not Kayden Durham to outstanding running
the ball. You saw what kind of speed they had
(24:01):
on the outside. I don't know how Barrion Brownie's CD
was taking off the boards. That looks like a TV
on Mars. So it's a much closer game than it
should have been on the scoreboards because there enough Meyer's dude,
you can players, they're a person's the dude, he can players.
I think the defenses cancel each other out, which saw
was one guy got help from his office in Garrett Nutmeyer,
and one guy did not in Kate club Nick, and
(24:24):
that ended up being a different in the games.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
R J.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Young joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. What I
find funny is the conversation about the SEC as a whole,
because you have LSU getting the win against Clemson, and
I've hey, I'm not making this up for the sake
of of just bringing this to you, RJ. I heard
people say disappointing weekend, but it's because Texas doesn't beat
Ohio State and Alabama doesn't beat Florida State. Now I
(24:50):
can give Texas a pass. Can we give Alabama a
pass for what happened in Tallahassee on Saturday?
Speaker 10 (24:57):
No, we can't give it a pass because we're comparing
to the boar to Nick Saban, which was always going
to be the case for the person that follows Mick
Saban at Alabama. And now we are back to an
era that I remember when I was in high school.
Now I was one to college. Alabama. Ain't nothing in nobody.
We all think that we can get them. Now, Vanderbilt
scott them, Kentucky's looking like, hey, that's meat over there,
(25:19):
and Florida State said food. And not only did they
say food, Tommy Asolano's got out here and said, I
ain't scared of Staban ain't there to save them, and
they stood on business and care of it. Now, Taylor
the board is fourteen and four against unrecked opponents. Nick
Stadan was two hundred and thirty and four against unrecked opponents.
Now it ain't fun to be kayloring the boar right now.
(25:41):
It's really not Bama fans that had it, I think.
And one more walk like this one to an unranked opponent, yeah,
they might get shopping does.
Speaker 5 (25:49):
He lose his job? Could he lose his job after
this year?
Speaker 2 (25:52):
This is this is by the way, I feel dirty
asking this question on September first and just threw Sark
under the bus after week one. It's not my attention,
r J. But Alabama's different, like could could there be?
Could there be some some rumblings.
Speaker 10 (26:09):
Alabama is different. But I'm gonna put Kaylen de Goore
on the spot that Brint denimles ben have. Okay, That's
what I'm gonna do, right I do you know how
much Oklahoma means to me? Right? Yes, Sanny me comes
up an od fan and there are lots of Oklahoma
fans that want to see Brint Denibles out of the seat.
I think that they got a little bit more of
a Harrik trigger at Bama because of the kind of
(26:30):
success that ad over the past twenty years. But I
don't think he loses his job this year. I think
they're gonna win eight nine games. If they win ten,
they make the playoffs. That's why we changed the seed, right,
We changed the seating because they got left out. We
have tried to been over backwards to make this DAMA
program remain the Bama program that it was Savan with
Savan and Kayln's boy seems to be held making sure
(26:51):
that we get rid of that notion all the different.
Speaker 5 (26:55):
It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
It truly is the expectations and whoever followed Nick Saban
was going to have to deal with this. And while
you thought it could be an advantage, I'm not sure
if it is, even if you're bringing in the talent
that that he's bringing.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
In nearly an impossible task.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Yeah, absolutely, a couple of you more before we let
you go. Miami survives against Notre Name last night. It
looked like the Canes were in control before a late
push from Notre Dame. Were you impressed by Carson Beck's
performance against the fighting Irish?
Speaker 10 (27:22):
I was very inpressed by Carson Beck's performance. One of
the reasons I was but I had DJ Carter compared
against and what it came down to for me is
one guy is an experienced starter. He is playing games
of this magnitude before and is used to winning. To remember, Carton.
Speaker 11 (27:35):
Deck got to win against Clinton last year, and it's
didn't look that dissimilar at Georgia last year that it
did this year. And he's got a budding star in
Malachi Ponier wide receivers. C J.
Speaker 10 (27:46):
Cark got good, He's got moxie. But those intentional groundings
that he had, the ways in which the game seemed
to speed up for him, and frankly, that crust seven
that Miami had, that's gonna be the thing that I
think turns them into kind of program. I can compete
for the agency championship there, yep, But I did not
expect Ruben Daines to basically build a house in the
backfield next to you, Jay car while also making it
(28:08):
easier on them by not running the ball against Jeremiah Up.
Very excited about what Carson that can be at Miami,
but you know it's Miami. We thought they were gonna
be great. Last year had the number one kick, he
didn't make the playoffs. That's the pass. Now can you
make the playoffs at Miami?
Speaker 4 (28:24):
One game left today, North Carolina taking on to ECU.
Bill Belichick making his debut as a college coach for
North Carolina. What are you expecting not just for today's game,
but for the season.
Speaker 10 (28:37):
For Belichick, I dare him to do better than the
last high profile coach to become a power Ford coach.
Nining palis four head coaching experience, that's beyond Sandy to Colorado.
He does better than four and eight, I'm gonna give
him the benefit of the doubt. Next years if he
wins ninety, I'm gonna give him the benests of the
doubt and have a heistand trophy winner. But tonight they're
(28:57):
playing Texas Christians. This is a Texas Qui team at
deon Standers beat in his first team as a power
for head coach to Colorado on the roads. I might
add this game is Dan Chapel Hill. That's a very minimum.
You need to beat Josh Huber and Sunny k and
Test Christian. Otherwise I'm going to start looking at you
and ask me why did they pay you ten million
dollars and you've got it done much of anything. Standers
(29:20):
at nine wins, then it's the top. The Big twelve
had a eyes. We go to Winter at first round pick.
This is not the NFL. This is college football. We
do it a little bit differently. As easy to win
here as many people think it is.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Well if they If North Carolina wins tonight, it'd be
a pretty darn good weekend for the ACC with the
Florida State victory. Of course, you mentioned the Clemson loss,
but it would be a good weekend for that conference
if North Carolina could pull it off with Miami victory
as well. Over Notre Dame RJ. We love talking to you,
we love watching you. Keep up the good work. We'll
talk to you again soon.
Speaker 10 (29:50):
And Martin, thanks so much for having you. Does have
a great labor day.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
Do you want to draw a question? Yeah, okay, so
this is what we've done. We've thrown a bunch of
questions into the into this. We don't even have a
box or a hat. We've got a bunch of a
bunch of questions thrown out that. I wrote that, Manzi
wrote that, Jason Stewart wrote, and Chris Preffett. In fact,
Chris Prefett has just finished his questions, and we've just
(30:15):
got random questions that we want to answer about the
upcoming NFL season. So there are twelve questions at all.
Monzy gets the first crack. All right, Manzi, there's there's
twelve twelve pieces of paper. I would put it into
my new hat, but my new hat is I don't
want you guys putting your grimy hands into my ca
(30:36):
I don't have.
Speaker 9 (30:36):
Like a Dodger's mini helmet in here we can use that.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Could bear walk right by. That didn't even get it.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Okay, I didn't even see it, all right, first question,
let's see what it's. Oh, it's one of hers.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
I could tell already by the writing. So why not
let's get a different one?
Speaker 5 (30:50):
Right?
Speaker 3 (30:50):
Since I know? There we go? Okay, here we go.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
Are the Chiefs finally going to have everything catch up
to them?
Speaker 10 (30:59):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (31:00):
Thing?
Speaker 5 (31:00):
What do you think? Actually?
Speaker 9 (31:00):
I think that's my question?
Speaker 3 (31:02):
Ye to go, Chris, right.
Speaker 5 (31:04):
Oh, I thought we were keeping it secretly.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
I didn't know that I was not.
Speaker 9 (31:07):
No, but I thought you said that was like her handwriting.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
No, no, no, no, I literally did not grab guy wrote
the same question.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
Yeah, are the Chiefs finally going to have everything catch
up to them? I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
Call me crazy, but I think Patrick Mahomes has a
chip on his shoulder, and I think he's going to
be on a revenge.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Tour to prove that he has not lost his step.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Because last year, all most of us did was criticized
a team.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
That was ten and one, ten and two whatever they
were ending fifteen and two.
Speaker 4 (31:38):
We were not satisfied with how the Chiefs were winning
last year single score games. I get all that Travis
Kelce may have lost his step, but I don't think
Patrick Mahomes has, and there is no reason for me
to think that everything is going to catch up to them.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
Here's the toughest thing for me to pick against the
Chiefs when it comes down to it, is how well
they operate in late games such, Yeah, they know what
they're doing, Yes they do. They understand how to work
the clock. When they have a lead. It's done near
impossible to get the football back from them.
Speaker 5 (32:10):
Now.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Granted they've had some clean escapes and maybe once in
a while we've seen airs, but I would say on
a performance rate compared to the other thirty one teams,
they just know how to win those close games and
if they're ahead or behind, they figure out a way
to do it. And that's ultimately a tip of the
cap to Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes. So I think
that's what makes it so difficult to pick against them.
Speaker 4 (32:32):
Yeah, there's no maybe a year from now will be
like okay, but there's no reason for us aside from
we're just angry at how they won. Angry that it
wasn't more flashy, more like we'd seen in previous years.
Speaker 3 (32:45):
It was just a little sloppy, but they still won.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Yeah, I really hope they don't go to the super
Bowl again. I just, I just I want a different
end zone in the super Bowl. Just a different color, different,
different painting. That's all that I asked the Bengals in
Super Bowl fifty six was a bit refreshing, isn't the
big yellow with the Chiefs red? I just want a
different end zonean super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
I don't know that's gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
So they can win, they can make the playoffs. They
just don't want them to go to the super Bowl, right,
She's Moncey.
Speaker 5 (33:09):
I'm Dan.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
We've got eleven more questions, and I know that there
are only two of Chris Purfett's left in the in
the Dodger helmet.

Speaker 2 (34:22):
Jason Stewart handling the game time duties today. What you got, Jay?
Speaker 5 (34:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (34:26):
What came?
Speaker 5 (34:26):
We're playing again?
Speaker 9 (34:27):
Big deal, little deal, No deal?
Speaker 8 (34:30):
Okay, Now the actual game is just kind of a
front today. I'm doing this for selfish reasons. I love
hearing Dan talk about golf. I like closing my eyes
and listening to him talk about golf. Right, I want
Dan to uh forget about anything that may have recently
been said in a staff meeting, and I want you
(34:51):
to give me your unfiltered breakdown of the Ryder Cup
this year. As everybody knows, it's at the end the
month twenty six through the twenty eighth of September, the
European team has been finalized. Captain Luke Donald, in an
attempt to defend his Ryder Cup, selected his final slots today. Dan,
(35:15):
you've looked at both rosters now the US has already
in What do we think about this year's Ryder Cup
and the individuals that are going to be playing on
these teams.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
I think in most years we feel that the US
has the best team, and that's crazy to say, or
the better players. When you look at the success that
the European team has had. What I find funny is
now there is this thought because the Americans had success
at Hazel Team in twenty sixteen and then a dominating
performance at Whistling Straights in twenty twenty one, that the
(35:47):
tide is turned where the Americans not only are the
better team, but they're defending their soil and then have
a strong enough team to go to Europe and win
on foreign soil. Well, that's not necessarily the case this
year because it's being held at Bethpage Black. But I
feel that there's this thought process that the Americans are
(36:08):
just going to handle business and move on. And then
you see who the European squad has. Eleven of the
twelve players that won two years ago in Italy are back.
And by the way, these are names that you know.
I know Manci is not a huge golf fan, but
you've heard of Rory McLoyd because you've heard of You've
(36:29):
heard of Victor Hoblin before. You've heard of Ludwig Olberg before. Yes,
you've heard of these names. You've heard of Matthew Fitzpatrick
who won a US Open in twenty twenty two Septstraca. Again,
only one player from that team two years ago, which
is thought to be a younger European squad. Only one
(36:50):
player is not on the team this year, and that's
because Erasmus Hoyguard is replacing his twin brother Nikolai on
the European squad. So they have chemistry, they have history together.
This is a really, really good opportunity for Europe to
win another Ryder Cup on US soil, something that they
haven't done since twenty twelve at Medina.
Speaker 3 (37:12):
Twin brother replaced us?
Speaker 5 (37:14):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (37:15):
How about so why did we would should have just
pretended it was the same brother and put it the
other one.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
You probably could switch one out if you need. Maybe
they did it that way. Yes, it is very cool.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
Because you know some twins you could tell right away.
Speaker 4 (37:27):
But if they look that alike, they should have just
done a little freaky Friday switch through.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
And you know this is It's also why Keegan Bradley
really really couldn't play. I think it would have been
a distraction at some point. But that may have been
good for the other eleven players to play for the US.
But if you would have picked himself, it's tough enough
to beat this European squad as it is, then you're
just bringing more heat and the fallout from that would
(37:53):
have been enormous. I think they made the right decision.
It would have been great fodder. It would have been
the talk of everything. But I think that the Ryder
Cup is big enough that we're going to be talking
about it and the rowdy crowds in New York things
could get a little hostile.
Speaker 5 (38:07):
I'm excited for the end of the month.
Speaker 8 (38:09):
So Monsie, big deal, A little deal, or no deal
that neither you or I have any takes on the
Ryder Cup rosters.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
I think it is a little let's move on.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
I also pulled a doug and I don't even think
I categorized it. It's a big deal that Europe is
running it back. Basically, all right, here's one for you, Monci.
Speaker 8 (38:28):
Big deal, little deal or no deal that the wild
card chases in each league in the major leagues this
season is almost pretty much wrapped up. There isn't a
whole lot of suspense and intrigue. And if if you're
saying to me that that's an offense to all Seattle
Mariners fans who are only like two and a half
games in front of the Texas.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
And the Red trying to get in there.
Speaker 8 (38:52):
The big deal, a little or no deal that there
doesn't seem to be a whole lot of drama with
the wild card races is year.
Speaker 4 (38:57):
I mean, obviously it is a little deal because it
would make everything more exciting if it was a tiny
bit more tight. But as a Dodgers fan, I guess
I am just chilling here and waiting for you know,
October baseball. But it is a little deal. It would
be more exciting if it was a little tighter. And
that's game time.
Speaker 9 (39:20):
This is game time on The Dug Gottlieb Show.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
And my buddy teld me last week that he was
worried about the Cubs catching the Brewers in the n
El Central. Ah, it's only five and a half, what
are you talking about? And now it's six and a
half a week later, Right, she's Monty, I'm Dan. What'd
you love and hate from Labor Day weekend? We got
it next on Fox

Speaker 2 (00:18):
You know, I was ready to show off my new
hat today. I know it's difficult in an audio medium. Well,
you'll see video of us as well. And then Monty
comes dressed up on a Labor Day wearing a dress.
The hair is done, my hat takes second fiddle.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
You know, I appreciate the compliments.
Speaker 4 (00:37):
I did wash my hair, so you're right. I did
dress up, I washed my hair. I'm excited to be here.
I wish we had some veggie dogs and veggie burgers.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Nothing says Labor Day like a nice vegetable pack hot dog.
Speaker 5 (00:53):
Put it. It's your great summer.
Speaker 4 (00:56):
Delicious, delicious, delicious.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
I do you think that the Labor Day cookout gets
the bronze of the Memorial Day Fourth of July cookouts
that you have. Yes, now we kind of move already.
The fall stuff is out and football is here. NFL
Week one we can start officially talking about the games
that are coming up on Sunday. And now we have
week one of the college football season, Monzie, that is
(01:19):
almost in the rearview mirror except for a game tonight
where Bill Belichick makes his debut as the North Carolina
head coach against TCU. But other than that, Week one,
all in the books for college.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
All in the books.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
Your team defending national champion out there proving that they
should have probably been preseason ranking number one.
Speaker 5 (01:39):
I think they made a good statement.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
They made a statement. Absolutely that was not a great game,
but they won. I mean, I'm not gonna lie. There's
no way you sat there and you were like, this
is such a fun guy.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
I had wondered what it was like for fans, and
I think I knew the answer. That didn't have a
dog in the fight, correct, because it was a hyped game.
One versus two, one versus three, depending on which pole
you live by the coaches poul, which is the one
I think is the least popular. More people go by
the eight people, but that the coaches poul had at
one versus two. So let's do one versus two for
(02:11):
the sake of this argument. I was invested as an
Ohio State fan, and I know Texas fans were invested
as they were fans, but I couldn't help think that
the general public, like yourself, that didn't have a dog
in the fight, was saying, this is how I'm kicking
off my college football season a little bit.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I woke up at nine am for this, Yes, love bit.
Speaker 5 (02:30):
Yes on the on the left coast.
Speaker 3 (02:32):
Yes on the West coast, definitely.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
And this was another part of the drama of that
game because of the Fox big noon kickoff and Fox
was there, and there's been some controversy at least in
Ohio State's stratosphere of them because they are such a
marquee brand being the top team for Fox to have
all of their games put at noon Eastern time. Because
of the big noon kickoff lead in Ohio State had
(02:57):
wanted to switch the game to a night game. Texas said, no,
we'll play it on Saturday. We'll play it early on Fox,
and that's what ended up happening, and then you had
a game that ends up fourteen to seven Ohio State wins.
But truly, Manzi, for as much as you would think
it would be about the defending national champions It had
nothing to do with the defending national champions.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Oh, absolutely nothing to do The story was the Manning
the other the next.
Speaker 5 (03:25):
And he is and he is.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
He's truly, aside from Bill Belichick, the only story that
has garnered any interest in the preseason leading up to it.
We had a game last night that will dive into
of Notre Dame and Miami and Carson Beck who was
at a Marquee School of Georgia in transfers and gets
his first start with the Miami Hurricanes. That doesn't even
(03:50):
come close to the level of intrigue. Carson Beck was
dating one of the Cavender twins. Yeah, now they're not anymore.
They're not together anymore.
Speaker 3 (03:59):
Thank you for the update.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
And that didn't even rise to the level of what
arch Manning has been to college football. Arch Manning didn't
have one hundred yards passing until the fourth quarter of
their game against Ohio State on Saturday.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
He didn't have a pass more than ten yards until
the fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
In the air seventeen to thirty one hundred and seventy yards,
the one touchdown late, and an interception that was not
a good interception. This is arch Manning talking about his
own performance in his first start is the Texas quarterback
on Saturday.
Speaker 6 (04:29):
Yeah, it didn't start fast enough. Took a whole half
for us to kind of even get the ball down
the field. So that starts with me. Get back to
square one and then get back Monday and go prepare
for Santasey State. Yeah, ultimately not good enough. Obviously you
don't want to start off season zero to one. They're
a good team. But I thought we beat ourselves a lot,
and that starts with me, and I got to play
better for us to win. Can't wait till the second
(04:50):
half to kind of get things going.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
That's the message from Arch the player, which sounds very
much like a Manning esque Manning esque that. By the way,
the comments that you're hearing from March as well are
the only comments that you're gonna hear that are grounded.
We're gonna hear from Sarka just a second as well.
But everything outside, all of the noise about Arch Manning
was focused on the game on Saturday was truly negative.
(05:13):
And Monzi, I am not even though the team that
I was rooting for beat Texas, I am all in
on Arch Manning. I am completely In fact, I would
double my bet right now with better odds as he
has fallen out of the leading spot for the Heisman.
According to Las Vegas, he is no longer John Mattira
(05:34):
is now your odds on leader player with the shortest
odds of winning the Heisman archers dropped down to sixteen
to one. If I was a betting man, Manzi, I
am moving all in on that. I Am not gonna
take one bad performance in an opening game against the
defending national champions with a brand new defensive coordinator and
still loads of talent on defense that came back from
(05:57):
that national championship team a year ago, and hold it
against arch Manning, especially for what I saw in the
fourth quarter, which is what you alluded to with the
passing yards that he had downfield. Take your shots now
if you want on Arch Manning, because this is going
to be the only time we're going to be.
Speaker 5 (06:15):
Able to do it.
Speaker 3 (06:15):
Yeah. I a couple of things with this.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
I very very logical of you, as an Ohio State
fan to not hit the panic button, but the patient's button,
which I'm with you. I'm hit the patient's button here, guys,
like this was against the defendant national champion on their
territory where we have seen very little of Arch Manning.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
I feel I agree with.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
You that the Manning family would not put their son
in this position if they didn't think he was capable
of it. Even that answer himself, they have literally trained him.
You are the quarterback, you take the responsibility when it
goes bad. But in reality, he never got in a rhythm.
Give that up to Ohio, Matt, Patricia, give it up
to whoever you want. They never got in a rhythm
at all. Even you could argue in the fourth quarter,
(07:01):
but like that started the second half, Arch Manning took
them downfield with his legs. He still didn't throw the ball.
They still didn't let him get in a rhythm. Ohio
did not get in a rhythm. Give it up to
Texas punter. There was a couple of kicks that was
making the buck guys not be able to get in
a rhythm.
Speaker 3 (07:19):
You never got in a rhythm in the first half.
Speaker 4 (07:21):
Yeah, that's why I was. It was kind of a
boring game when you don't have a dog in the fight.
No one got in a rhythm. There wasn't a lot
of scoring, and by the end of it, I agree
with you. I don't Arch Manning did not look good.
But I'm not hitting the panic button.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
I feel that people are wanting to cash in their
chips now, and if they aren't a Manning fan or
not a Manning family fan, that they'll take this opportunity
to tell you I told you so. And I'm fully
aware of that, Manti. I've also said that I thought
that there was a chance if the Saint said the
first overall pick next year, that Arch would declare for
the draft. And I think that there are people are saying, see,
look right now, he's not ready for the NFL. We're
(07:58):
talking four quarters in.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Right, No, because that's they think that's a victory for them. Yes,
that they think that's a victory for them.
Speaker 4 (08:06):
And it's like, come on, y'all, four quarters in like
you in enemy territory, like the first time a season.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Oh, like, what are we doing?
Speaker 5 (08:14):
Correct?
Speaker 4 (08:14):
Nerves could be nerves are okay, this is normal, this
is normal. It's there's no reason, but people just want
to take their own personal victory lap.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
Right now, Let's see where we are in a couple
of weeks.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Let's hear what Steve Sarkizian, Arch's head coach, had to
say after.
Speaker 5 (08:30):
The loss on Saturday about his quarterback.
Speaker 7 (08:32):
The expectations were out of control on the outside. But
I'd say, let's finish the book before we before we
judge it. Right, this is this is one chapter and
we got a long season to go play. The growth
throughout the game for Arch was was really encouraging for me.
We're we're gonna be fine. Like I said, we got
work to do as a team and as an offense,
(08:53):
but ultimately, like I'm getting on the plane knowing we're
gonna be a good football team. And so, hey, we
didn't win tonight. That's the life of a competitor. We
went for it in a tough place against a good team.
Speaker 5 (09:03):
But we'll get we'll get back.
Speaker 7 (09:04):
On the horse, and we'll play good football this season.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
I think that his use of books was amazing, because well,
I only listen to books now reading and just very
very difficult. I used an album as how I looked
at Arch manning for this year. This is the first
song on an album. Now, granted you want.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
An intro song to.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
It was just the intro to it. This For those
of us who had CDs, this was track one, right,
I want we know the hits are track two, track three,
track four, that's what's coming up, and on a great album,
you could listen to song after song after song. This
was track one on arch Manning's album, and I just
(09:52):
feel everybody is now taking a victory lap. We don't
know the type of quarterback he's going to be. We
don't know if arch Manning is going to be or
like Peyton, more like Eli, or more like his grandpa,
who he's named after. The way that he ran the football,
he seems more like Archie than he does of Eli
or Peyton. By the way Eli threw tons of interceptions,
would lead the league in the NFL in interceptions. You
(10:15):
know why because he also didn't have a conscience that
had the confidence enough that I'm gonna make these throws.
I've felt Eli Manning had made Odell Beckham who he
is because there were eighty percent of the quarterbacks of
the NFL that would never make the throws that Eli
would be willing to make. And then you have Peyton,
who was able to dissect defenses through him being basically
(10:36):
a coach on the field and ends up winning two
Super Bowl titles. They are all these different ways to
go because you have one weekend in the spotlight against
the defending national champions, against the new defensive coordinator. And
by the way, Arch could play this year, Arch could
play next year, and as crazy as it sounds, could
play the next year after that if you wanted to
(10:56):
before going to the National Football League. That's what's ahead
for for Arch Manning. It's not just one game, and
I feel we need to pump the brakes. And if
you're like me by now, why you're stocked now when
it dipped after this game, because it's never ever going
to be as low as it was after Saturday's performance.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
You know you've convinced me I'm gonna go a place
event on this heisman because you're right. By the third
quarter he had dropped in the third quarter, had dropped
from favorite to fourth or fifth in the middle of
the game.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
You're so right, because when I listen to an album,
you know.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
I skip the first track usually a lot of times,
and I have no regrets.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
I don't even think about it.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
We are not even gonna think about this game come
a couple of weeks and months from now, because I'm
totally with you, Dan, it will be a footnote I'll
remember that one game I would start how funny, Oh funny.
Even though the score was seven to fourteen, it wasn't
even a blowout.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
It was seven to fourteen.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
In spots where they were stopped at the goal line twice. Yes,
so there were opportunities for Texas to win this game
when you look back at what happens when you look
back at Arch Manning's career. By the way, a lot
of people say it's because of the name on his back.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Oh, absolutely it, By the way.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
It is because you want to know why.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
Because in the National Football League, when you're looking at players,
and even in college football, there is nothing more random
than an eighteen to twenty two year old kid. And
if you can have any information or any intel that
guess what, something may not be as random because they
come from a certain pedigree, they come from a certain family.
You're going to take that and that is going to
(12:29):
be a benefit to you. So yeah, so there is
some stock in the Manning name. It's not that we'rely
talking about him because his last name is Manning.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
No, that's not it.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
We're talking about him because of how great the Manning
players have been previously, and he has lived up to
the expectations up to this point, and if you want
to jump ship now because he didn't reach your expectations
in week one, then that's on you because I don't
think that there's any reason of the jump ship on
Arch Manning right now.
Speaker 4 (12:57):
And you know, continuing to what you're saying here, it's
like you, the name Manning is the reason why people
are being patient like us, and at the same time.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Why people are trying to take a victory lap.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
It's the same reason you're trying to take a victory
lap because his name is Arch Manning.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
If his name was Caleb Johnson, you would not be saying, oh,
I was right, I was right. I told you all.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
It goes both ways that you want to be critical,
extra critical because he's a Manning, while some of us
are being patient and telling you relx it was Game
one because of they're both they both are because he's
a Manning.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Can I ask you this question if you were to
say Arch Manning is more of a story because of
A he's great, or would it be B he's not great?
What do you think what is the bigger story with.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Arch Manning that he's great?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Jason Stewart and I had that sort of dilemma. I
agreed with you, you think the bigger stories if Arch
isn't great.
Speaker 5 (13:54):
I do.
Speaker 8 (13:54):
I think that'll be the more interesting story. It was
the aspect of Saturday that I was most rooting for
him to do what he did because it will almost
kind of force our industry to maybe rethink the way
it presents itself. Right, Dan, you brought up this weeks ago,
that even months ago, that the Saints might likely tank
(14:17):
to take Arch manning next spring. I've heard similar things
said matter of factly by people in our industry, not scouts,
not people to do draft projections, but just radio hosts,
debate hosts. And I kept saying, in my mind, what
has Arch done in college to demand that kind of
(14:39):
respect that he is the de facto number one pick
in the draft next season? And the answers to me
were weren't there. So Saturday, in a lot of ways
kind of confirmed to me that why was everyone speaking
so matter of factly about this about this kid? It
(15:00):
was not only unfair to him, and I think the
last time you guys filled in, we were reacting to
his grandpa's comments and that magazine, and I think his
grandpa was attempting to kind of decrease the amount of
hype for this kid, and looking back, I think that
that was a smart play. So anyways, the bigger story
to me, because of who I am, because I do
(15:22):
content for a living, is that he fails, and then
I want to see everybody apologize for their stance. For
matter of fact, he's saying that he's the number one
pick next spring. How do we know what proof has
he given us that he warrants them?
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Because I think that the bar that he has to
reach again with the Manning name and who he is
and what that family has done, gives you at least
some information that other quarterbacks don't know. And it's no
disrespect to cam Ward. It's no disrespect to Caleb Williams.
There isn't the family tree of success. Now he may
(16:03):
not be as good as Eli or Peyton, but at
least you know that there is something there and that
there is something to build on, which I feel what
you're drafting twenty one and twenty two year old kids
is the part of the game as it is. There
is such a risk, so much more in the NBA
because kids are even younger at that point. But anything
(16:23):
that you can take that is given and not an unknown,
is a huge advantage over anybody else, especially at the
quarterback position.
Speaker 4 (16:31):
Yeah, this isn't like a one off family member that
was that had successes at the quarterback position in the NFL.
It's multiple family members. One of arguably the best in
Peyton Manning. You could say, and I guess I am
trusting that they know what they've seen since he was
a little kid growing up to want to be this
(16:51):
that they wouldn't put him in this position if they
didn't think he had it in him. I just I
have to believe that, and that's where it comes. And
even though I hear what you're saying, Jason, if he
was not good, if he was quote unquote a failure,
that would be the bigger story, but for a shorter
amount of time.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
If he is good, then this story will last for
years going into the NFL.
Speaker 4 (17:12):
Him failing would be only so long and then we'd
stop talking about it.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
As crazy as it sounds, this may sound ridiculous, but
I mentioned cam Ward. If arch Manning was in last
year's draft, he would have been the first overall pick. Yeah,
he would have gone ahead of cam Ward. I mean
as as crazy as that sounds, and that's to no
fault of Arch Manning, but I just embedding on everything
that we know. The real heat actually probably comes on
(17:36):
Steve Sarkisian because now you've had Queen Ewers there, who
was thought to be the uber prospect, the highest rated
perfect prospect, goes to Texas, doesn't necessarily stay healthy and
ends up being a late round pick of the Miami Dolphins.
And now you've got Arch Manning from the Manning Tree
coming in and if he doesn't turn into the quarterback
(17:59):
that I think he's going to be, I think that's
such an indictment on Steve Sarkisian. Maybe that's why quarterbacks
are now going to Ohio State to play under Ryan Day,
to play under these guys and seeing how some of
the success is going, because that would be now two
top quarterbacks that Texas hasn't been able to cash in
on and then translate to the next level. I think
(18:20):
there's pressure on Steve Sarkisian to make sure that Arch works.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
I think few people are saying that yes, not yet,
not yet, not yet.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
Right now, it's Manning.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
It's all about Art And by the way, if he
throws for five touchdowns against Oklahoma and the Cotton Bowl
in early October. This will be a distant memory. Be
this will be long gone, and we'll talk about Arch's
arrival to your point. Hitter up at Manzi Blanos, he
got me at Dan Byron Fox. Jason Stewart is here

are Fox Sports college football analysts, host of the Number
one show podcast for Fox Sports. Good friend r J
Young joins us. Hello, RJ Great, Great, are we are
(19:55):
having a great spirited discussion about what transpired in Columbus
on Saturday afternoon? Are you buying low on Arch Manning
or could there be more to come from what we
saw from Arch this past Saturday.
Speaker 10 (20:11):
I think most people, given a few days time, will
come back to there's more to come from Arch Manning.
Who won simple fat. He's not going to play Ohio
State for the next eleven weeks, right, everybody that they played,
for the most part, is either going to be at
that level or below that level. At that level, I'm
thinking about Georgia right after that. I think we're gonna
(20:32):
see the dude grow up. I think that it was
unnerving to play in front of that many hostile fans.
I think that while we were really taking a look
at what Julius Dale was going to do in his
first ever start, this is Arch's first start against a
class college football opponent. I think it's more upsetting as
a Texas fan, not what arch did or didn't do.
But they didn't they got stood up at the goal
(20:53):
line twice. That they were uncharacteristically limped and thought in
the run game when they needed to be better. That
I think would haunt them. But I'm buying on arts meeting.
I think he's going to be a great player.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
Do you give more credit to maybe Matt Patricia or
do you think it was nerves and his first time
out in a hostile environment.
Speaker 10 (21:14):
I think it's got to be a bit of both. Honestly,
I think that Matt Patricia is an outstanding to fits
the coordinator. And while we can talk about arching his nerves,
one of the other things I think is important to
reference here is that's a really great defense he's played too.
I don't just mean the guy called the places. I
mean Caleb Down for some is the best player in
college football. I think he's the second best player in
college football, and the best player in college football is
(21:36):
mostly out in checks and Jeremiah Smith by that Texas defense,
although we played out standing Jermaine mattis former five star
and number one of this big he made the interceptions
running that route to line and me go, I think
it's a bit of both, and I think when both
those things come together, it's going to be really difficult
to beat that team that said they're off fourteen to seven,
not forty nine to seven. Fourteen to seven.
Speaker 5 (21:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 10 (21:57):
R J.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
Young joining us here on Fox Sports Radio talking about
the weekend that was in college football. She's Monzi Blagio.
So I'm Dan Byer in for Doug one more on
that part. Like, I want to give Sark the benefit
of the doubt because of where Texas is. They're a
preseason number one. They're bringing in the players, but you know,
we're talking about James Franklin and his porous record against
(22:18):
top five teams and what's expected of Penn State.
Speaker 5 (22:22):
Does it?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
Will it build with Sark because they play this close
game against Ohio State on Saturday they lose to him,
and what was a close game in the Cotton Bowl
in the long runs, previous last game of the season.
At any point do you think he starts to build
on Sark or maybe we start to have conversations around him.
Speaker 10 (22:42):
No, he's got one of the coolest feats in college football,
as was. I'm concerned that Texas program was down and
down bed and he got there, they made two consecutive
College Football Playoff appearances, they made two consecutive conference Championship
game appearances, and he won one in the last couple
of years. And all he's done is recruited is behind
them off to make sure that they keep reloading on
(23:03):
that offense and that defense. I think nobody in Texas
is happy about the loss of Ohio State, But I
also look at Dablins Queen and Clemson. Right they took
a pretty tough loss this weekend too. Nobody wants to
see Dablos Tweeny get out of Clinton. I think it's
going to be very much like that for Texas. They
have an opportunity to put together a great one loss record.
Speaker 4 (23:23):
Let's move on to that top ten match up between
LSU and Clemson, where I think no one really expected
the young LSU team to take on this established defense
with Clemson and come out and win.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
What did you make of it? Were you surprised?
Speaker 10 (23:41):
I was not surprised, Monty. I actually thought this was
going to be a close game. I picked Clemson a
win because coming in the Death Valley is very difficult.
To your point, that is what I think would have
been unnervy but in the way that say Texas was
a bit unnerved by Ohio State. The boys from the
body you just were not Kayden Durham to outstanding running
the ball. You saw what kind of speed they had
(24:01):
on the outside. I don't know how Barrion Brownie's CD
was taking off the boards. That looks like a TV
on Mars. So it's a much closer game than it
should have been on the scoreboards because there enough Meyer's dude,
you can players, they're a person's the dude, he can players.
I think the defenses cancel each other out, which saw
was one guy got help from his office in Garrett Nutmeyer,
and one guy did not in Kate club Nick, and
(24:24):
that ended up being a different in the games.
Speaker 5 (24:26):
R J.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Young joining us here on Fox Sports Radio. What I
find funny is the conversation about the SEC as a whole,
because you have LSU getting the win against Clemson, and
I've hey, I'm not making this up for the sake
of of just bringing this to you, RJ. I heard
people say disappointing weekend, but it's because Texas doesn't beat
Ohio State and Alabama doesn't beat Florida State. Now I
(24:50):
can give Texas a pass. Can we give Alabama a
pass for what happened in Tallahassee on Saturday?
Speaker 10 (24:57):
No, we can't give it a pass because we're comparing
to the boar to Nick Saban, which was always going
to be the case for the person that follows Mick
Saban at Alabama. And now we are back to an
era that I remember when I was in high school.
Now I was one to college. Alabama. Ain't nothing in nobody.
We all think that we can get them. Now, Vanderbilt
scott them, Kentucky's looking like, hey, that's meat over there,
(25:19):
and Florida State said food. And not only did they
say food, Tommy Asolano's got out here and said, I
ain't scared of Staban ain't there to save them, and
they stood on business and care of it. Now, Taylor
the board is fourteen and four against unrecked opponents. Nick
Stadan was two hundred and thirty and four against unrecked opponents.
Now it ain't fun to be kayloring the boar right now.
(25:41):
It's really not Bama fans that had it, I think.
And one more walk like this one to an unranked opponent, yeah,
they might get shopping does.
Speaker 5 (25:49):
He lose his job? Could he lose his job after
this year?
Speaker 2 (25:52):
This is this is by the way, I feel dirty
asking this question on September first and just threw Sark
under the bus after week one. It's not my attention,
r J. But Alabama's different, like could could there be?
Could there be some some rumblings.
Speaker 10 (26:09):
Alabama is different. But I'm gonna put Kaylen de Goore
on the spot that Brint denimles ben have. Okay, That's
what I'm gonna do, right I do you know how
much Oklahoma means to me? Right? Yes, Sanny me comes
up an od fan and there are lots of Oklahoma
fans that want to see Brint Denibles out of the seat.
I think that they got a little bit more of
a Harrik trigger at Bama because of the kind of
(26:30):
success that ad over the past twenty years. But I
don't think he loses his job this year. I think
they're gonna win eight nine games. If they win ten,
they make the playoffs. That's why we changed the seed, right,
We changed the seating because they got left out. We
have tried to been over backwards to make this DAMA
program remain the Bama program that it was Savan with
Savan and Kayln's boy seems to be held making sure
(26:51):
that we get rid of that notion all the different.
Speaker 5 (26:55):
It's amazing.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
It truly is the expectations and whoever followed Nick Saban
was going to have to deal with this. And while
you thought it could be an advantage, I'm not sure
if it is, even if you're bringing in the talent
that that he's bringing.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
In nearly an impossible task.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Yeah, absolutely, a couple of you more before we let
you go. Miami survives against Notre Name last night. It
looked like the Canes were in control before a late
push from Notre Dame. Were you impressed by Carson Beck's
performance against the fighting Irish?
Speaker 10 (27:22):
I was very inpressed by Carson Beck's performance. One of
the reasons I was but I had DJ Carter compared
against and what it came down to for me is
one guy is an experienced starter. He is playing games
of this magnitude before and is used to winning. To remember, Carton.
Speaker 11 (27:35):
Deck got to win against Clinton last year, and it's
didn't look that dissimilar at Georgia last year that it
did this year. And he's got a budding star in
Malachi Ponier wide receivers. C J.
Speaker 10 (27:46):
Cark got good, He's got moxie. But those intentional groundings
that he had, the ways in which the game seemed
to speed up for him, and frankly, that crust seven
that Miami had, that's gonna be the thing that I
think turns them into kind of program. I can compete
for the agency championship there, yep, But I did not
expect Ruben Daines to basically build a house in the
backfield next to you, Jay car while also making it
(28:08):
easier on them by not running the ball against Jeremiah Up.
Very excited about what Carson that can be at Miami,
but you know it's Miami. We thought they were gonna
be great. Last year had the number one kick, he
didn't make the playoffs. That's the pass. Now can you
make the playoffs at Miami?
Speaker 4 (28:24):
One game left today, North Carolina taking on to ECU.
Bill Belichick making his debut as a college coach for
North Carolina. What are you expecting not just for today's game,
but for the season.
Speaker 10 (28:37):
For Belichick, I dare him to do better than the
last high profile coach to become a power Ford coach.
Nining palis four head coaching experience, that's beyond Sandy to Colorado.
He does better than four and eight, I'm gonna give
him the benefit of the doubt. Next years if he
wins ninety, I'm gonna give him the benests of the
doubt and have a heistand trophy winner. But tonight they're
(28:57):
playing Texas Christians. This is a Texas Qui team at
deon Standers beat in his first team as a power
for head coach to Colorado on the roads. I might
add this game is Dan Chapel Hill. That's a very minimum.
You need to beat Josh Huber and Sunny k and
Test Christian. Otherwise I'm going to start looking at you
and ask me why did they pay you ten million
dollars and you've got it done much of anything. Standers
(29:20):
at nine wins, then it's the top. The Big twelve
had a eyes. We go to Winter at first round pick.
This is not the NFL. This is college football. We
do it a little bit differently. As easy to win
here as many people think it is.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Well if they If North Carolina wins tonight, it'd be
a pretty darn good weekend for the ACC with the
Florida State victory. Of course, you mentioned the Clemson loss,
but it would be a good weekend for that conference
if North Carolina could pull it off with Miami victory
as well. Over Notre Dame RJ. We love talking to you,
we love watching you. Keep up the good work. We'll
talk to you again soon.
Speaker 10 (29:50):
And Martin, thanks so much for having you. Does have
a great labor day.
Speaker 2 (29:53):
Do you want to draw a question? Yeah, okay, so
this is what we've done. We've thrown a bunch of
questions into the into this. We don't even have a
box or a hat. We've got a bunch of a
bunch of questions thrown out that. I wrote that, Manzi
wrote that, Jason Stewart wrote, and Chris Preffett. In fact,
Chris Prefett has just finished his questions, and we've just
(30:15):
got random questions that we want to answer about the
upcoming NFL season. So there are twelve questions at all.
Monzy gets the first crack. All right, Manzi, there's there's
twelve twelve pieces of paper. I would put it into
my new hat, but my new hat is I don't
want you guys putting your grimy hands into my ca
(30:36):
I don't have.
Speaker 9 (30:36):
Like a Dodger's mini helmet in here we can use that.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Could bear walk right by. That didn't even get it.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Okay, I didn't even see it, all right, first question,
let's see what it's. Oh, it's one of hers.
Speaker 3 (30:48):
I could tell already by the writing. So why not
let's get a different one?
Speaker 5 (30:50):
Right?
Speaker 3 (30:50):
Since I know? There we go? Okay, here we go.
Speaker 4 (30:54):
Are the Chiefs finally going to have everything catch up
to them?
Speaker 10 (30:59):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (31:00):
Thing?
Speaker 5 (31:00):
What do you think? Actually?
Speaker 9 (31:00):
I think that's my question?
Speaker 3 (31:02):
Ye to go, Chris, right.
Speaker 5 (31:04):
Oh, I thought we were keeping it secretly.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
I didn't know that I was not.
Speaker 9 (31:07):
No, but I thought you said that was like her handwriting.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
No, no, no, no, I literally did not grab guy wrote
the same question.
Speaker 3 (31:14):
Yeah, are the Chiefs finally going to have everything catch
up to them? I don't think so.
Speaker 4 (31:20):
Call me crazy, but I think Patrick Mahomes has a
chip on his shoulder, and I think he's going to
be on a revenge.
Speaker 3 (31:27):
Tour to prove that he has not lost his step.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Because last year, all most of us did was criticized
a team.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
That was ten and one, ten and two whatever they
were ending fifteen and two.
Speaker 4 (31:38):
We were not satisfied with how the Chiefs were winning
last year single score games. I get all that Travis
Kelce may have lost his step, but I don't think
Patrick Mahomes has, and there is no reason for me
to think that everything is going to catch up to them.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
Here's the toughest thing for me to pick against the
Chiefs when it comes down to it, is how well
they operate in late games such, Yeah, they know what
they're doing, Yes they do. They understand how to work
the clock. When they have a lead. It's done near
impossible to get the football back from them.
Speaker 5 (32:10):
Now.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Granted they've had some clean escapes and maybe once in
a while we've seen airs, but I would say on
a performance rate compared to the other thirty one teams,
they just know how to win those close games and
if they're ahead or behind, they figure out a way
to do it. And that's ultimately a tip of the
cap to Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes. So I think
that's what makes it so difficult to pick against them.
Speaker 4 (32:32):
Yeah, there's no maybe a year from now will be
like okay, but there's no reason for us aside from
we're just angry at how they won. Angry that it
wasn't more flashy, more like we'd seen in previous years.
Speaker 3 (32:45):
It was just a little sloppy, but they still won.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Yeah, I really hope they don't go to the super
Bowl again. I just, I just I want a different
end zone in the super Bowl. Just a different color, different,
different painting. That's all that I asked the Bengals in
Super Bowl fifty six was a bit refreshing, isn't the
big yellow with the Chiefs red? I just want a
different end zonean super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
I don't know that's gonna happen.
Speaker 2 (33:05):
So they can win, they can make the playoffs. They
just don't want them to go to the super Bowl, right,
She's Moncey.

Speaker 5 (34:25):

Speaker 3 (34:26):
What came?
Speaker 5 (34:26):
We're playing again?
Speaker 9 (34:27):
Big deal, little deal, No deal?
Speaker 8 (34:30):
Okay, Now the actual game is just kind of a
front today. I'm doing this for selfish reasons. I love
hearing Dan talk about golf. I like closing my eyes
and listening to him talk about golf. Right, I want
Dan to uh forget about anything that may have recently
been said in a staff meeting, and I want you
(34:51):
to give me your unfiltered breakdown of the Ryder Cup
this year. As everybody knows, it's at the end the
month twenty six through the twenty eighth of September, the
European team has been finalized. Captain Luke Donald, in an
attempt to defend his Ryder Cup, selected his final slots today. Dan,
(35:15):
you've looked at both rosters now the US has already
in What do we think about this year's Ryder Cup
and the individuals that are going to be playing on
these teams.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
I think in most years we feel that the US
has the best team, and that's crazy to say, or
the better players. When you look at the success that
the European team has had. What I find funny is
now there is this thought because the Americans had success
at Hazel Team in twenty sixteen and then a dominating
performance at Whistling Straights in twenty twenty one, that the
(35:47):
tide is turned where the Americans not only are the
better team, but they're defending their soil and then have
a strong enough team to go to Europe and win
on foreign soil. Well, that's not necessarily the case this
year because it's being held at Bethpage Black. But I
feel that there's this thought process that the Americans are
(36:08):
just going to handle business and move on. And then
you see who the European squad has. Eleven of the
twelve players that won two years ago in Italy are back.
And by the way, these are names that you know.
I know Manci is not a huge golf fan, but
you've heard of Rory McLoyd because you've heard of You've
(36:29):
heard of Victor Hoblin before. You've heard of Ludwig Olberg before. Yes,
you've heard of these names. You've heard of Matthew Fitzpatrick
who won a US Open in twenty twenty two Septstraca. Again,
only one player from that team two years ago, which
is thought to be a younger European squad. Only one
(36:50):
player is not on the team this year, and that's
because Erasmus Hoyguard is replacing his twin brother Nikolai on
the European squad. So they have chemistry, they have history together.
This is a really, really good opportunity for Europe to
win another Ryder Cup on US soil, something that they
haven't done since twenty twelve at Medina.
Speaker 3 (37:12):
Twin brother replaced us?
Speaker 5 (37:14):
How about that?
Speaker 4 (37:15):
How about so why did we would should have just
pretended it was the same brother and put it the
other one.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
You probably could switch one out if you need. Maybe
they did it that way. Yes, it is very cool.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
Because you know some twins you could tell right away.
Speaker 4 (37:27):
But if they look that alike, they should have just
done a little freaky Friday switch through.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
And you know this is It's also why Keegan Bradley
really really couldn't play. I think it would have been
a distraction at some point. But that may have been
good for the other eleven players to play for the US.
But if you would have picked himself, it's tough enough
to beat this European squad as it is, then you're
just bringing more heat and the fallout from that would
(37:53):
have been enormous. I think they made the right decision.
It would have been great fodder. It would have been
the talk of everything. But I think that the Ryder
Cup is big enough that we're going to be talking
about it and the rowdy crowds in New York things
could get a little hostile.
Speaker 5 (38:07):
I'm excited for the end of the month.
Speaker 8 (38:09):
So Monsie, big deal, A little deal, or no deal
that neither you or I have any takes on the
Ryder Cup rosters.
Speaker 3 (38:17):
I think it is a little let's move on.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
I also pulled a doug and I don't even think
I categorized it. It's a big deal that Europe is
running it back. Basically, all right, here's one for you, Monci.
Speaker 8 (38:28):
Big deal, little deal or no deal that the wild
card chases in each league in the major leagues this
season is almost pretty much wrapped up. There isn't a
whole lot of suspense and intrigue. And if if you're
saying to me that that's an offense to all Seattle
Mariners fans who are only like two and a half
games in front of the Texas.
Speaker 3 (38:49):
And the Red trying to get in there.
Speaker 8 (38:52):
The big deal, a little or no deal that there
doesn't seem to be a whole lot of drama with
the wild card races is year.
Speaker 4 (38:57):
I mean, obviously it is a little deal because it
would make everything more exciting if it was a tiny
bit more tight. But as a Dodgers fan, I guess
I am just chilling here and waiting for you know,
October baseball. But it is a little deal. It would
be more exciting if it was a little tighter. And
that's game time.
Speaker 9 (39:20):
This is game time on The Dug Gottlieb Show.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
And my buddy teld me last week that he was
worried about the Cubs catching the Brewers in the n
El Central. Ah, it's only five and a half, what
are you talking about? And now it's six and a
half a week later, Right, she's Monty, I'm Dan. What'd
you love and hate from Labor Day weekend? We got
it next on Fox
