I mentioned before, Johnny is joining us tonight. Go subscribe
to his podcast. It's on your YouTube channel, Glory Days
with Johnny Manzeah. As we mentioned before, the number sixth
Alabama crimson tied took down the number eleven Tennessee volunteers
(03:37):
thirty seven to twenty. Todd Simpson was sensational again tonight,
Johnny nineteen of twenty nine two fifty three, two touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
But the game was broken open right before the half.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Looked like Tennessee was going in to get a score
and he's late and inside on a flat rote what
we call flow pass is to the flat and then
you have a seven route and you know, if you
layton and on that, I hope you got somebody fast
that can run somebody down, because it's gonna be a house,
it's gonna be a curtain call. And that's what happened,
and Alabama really never looked back. Tennessee rand the ball
(04:12):
really well, bishoped with sensational fourteen cares a buck twenty
three two touchdowns, but they got stopped on fourth down.
And for all intents and purposes, the game was over.
Johnny watching this game, Alabama came out on fidy, got
the touchdown with right down the field, and then all
of a sudden they struggle for a few drives. Tennessee
comes back and ties it up. They get a field goal,
and then right you know, get another touchdown and then
(04:34):
that pick right before the half. I really think that
that took a lot of momentum and win out of
the sale of the volunteers.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
One hundred percent.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
Anytime you have Alabama has an opposing quarterback that they
may throw it forty four times in the game, that's
not going to be a recipe for success. I think
you look at the game, everything was okay, Tennessee's going
into score, the whole game is gonna change. Then you
throw it lighton inside, like we said, it's deuces. So
(05:04):
I mean that's a play you can't come back from.
You can have a great second half and try and
go get some clean up points late or whatever you're
trying to do. But for the most part, Bamba has
a really good football team. So at the end of
the day, if you're not going to come out and
play flawless football, no turnovers, win the turnover battle, run
it down their throat, be aggressive. Look right now, in
(05:27):
my opinion, I wrote this down when I walked in.
I got three guys right now who were playing really
good ball at the quarterback position, as far as taking
over a Heisman race, looking really good, having their moments.
I Senson, for sure, you have to throw them in there.
I think he's playing as good as anybody in the country.
I think Diego Pavia and what he's doing and what
Bandy did today. They just kept coming at LSU all
(05:49):
day today and then a m is undefeated for the
first time since nineteen ninety four. Marcel Reid more touchdowns
tonight leading that team.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
You go on the road, you win to shoot out.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Those guys have big moments coming up throughout the rest
of the season to really solidify what they want to do.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Yeah, you're absolutely right.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
I think the thing is when you're playing in the SEC,
when you look at it and you look at the
schedule that's remaining, whoever can, if you can run the table,
that definitely helps. But if whoever wins lose the fewest games.
I thought Gunner stocked them play really well. I like
the kid up at Ohio State He's played really well,
but it's gonna come down. And when you look at it, nobody,
(06:30):
we're not even really Johnny, if you really think about it,
Oh yow, we're not even really talking about the Heisman race.
Normally at this point in time, somebody would have stepped
out there and be like, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
But we just got a bunch of guys just plumped
together and we're waiting for someone to take to take
the lead and move to the front.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Jo watching this game, Alabama thirty seven, Tennessee twenty, This
doesn't look like the.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Alabama that I'm used to seeing.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Because the Alabama I'm used to seeing the run they
can put pressure on the quarterback with four they can't
do even now.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
I was thinking, really saying the same thing.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
They don't look like the Alabama all for one, when
you look at the Tennessee and the Alabama playing most
of the time, Alabama used to dominance, not dominance in spurs,
but dominance in all four courses of a game. Obviously,
Tennessee had a chance to keep the game close. Throwing
an interception before half. Obviously that sets things apart, and
(07:26):
it makes it that much more difficult. When you turn
the ball over against a good Alabama team, not very
very good what we're used to seeing, but a good
Alabama team. Then they run away with the game and
you turn it all over and don't take advantage of
the opportunity that you do have to score. Outside of that,
you expect Alabama to win a game like this when
they're playing a team like Tennessee that had success in
(07:48):
the running game but weren't able to dominate innother areas
to really give themselves a chance to actually compete, especially
in the second hand.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Do you think Alabama? Alabama normally do three things really well.
They run the football, they stopped the run, and they
can get out of your quarterback with four If you
go back and look at all those defensive guy that's gone,
they normally have really good on the back end. They
got corners and safety that's going in the first round.
And they have d Liman that can fly out get
after you. They don't really have that now, we don't see. Look,
(08:19):
they got some sacks early forty two. I can't remember
his name off the top of my head. I'm sorry
about that, and he got a safety. But other than that,
Johnny when you go back and look at Alabama, the
guy was just patting the ball and normally in order
to beat Alabama. If you go back and look at Alabama,
since coach Saban got there, and now, it's normally a
mobile quarterback, it's the Johnny Manziel's, it's the Cam Newton's.
(08:42):
It's guys that can move around that normally beat him
just dropping back and throwing the ball.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
It's really not to happen that often.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Corter Jones had success in the College Football Playoff that
one year, and I think Trevor Knight threw the ball
where they went to the Sugar Bowl. They thought they
was going to the National championship. Coach Saban said they
weren't mentally prepared, but normally it's mobile quarterbacks that gives
them fit.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
I'm looking at I'm looking at this Alabama. Yes, it's
a big time winning.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Anytime you could be a division team, a conference opponent
that's ranked.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Very high, you feel good.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
But this not, This doesn't look like johnn and Ocho
the Alabama that we're used to see, don't.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
I don't know if it needs to though, I don't
know if we're gonna see the same saban lad, We're
we're not gonna see the old Alabama of what we're
used to. This is a very new era, new coaching
style Alabama. But right now they have a quarterback that's
playing off the charts. They have a run game that's
able to move the ball. They have a defense that's
doing enough. You know, they're solid all the way through.
(09:41):
They're not they're bending but not breaking. They're doing what
they need to do. So if you look at their schedule,
they have one slip up so far and a really
hard schedule left. But they're handling what they need to
do and handling business. And the SEC is what it is.
We know that at the end of the day it's
gonna be a two losses in the SEC gets you in.
You know, Ole Miss takes an l the day to
(10:02):
kind of knock them off a little bit. But at
the end of the day, I think their quarterback played
really well for three and a half, almost four full quarters.
They have a really good squad. Georgia has a really
good squad, Emma has a really good squad, and m
is a good team. I don't think Tennessee is a
bad team. So I think you look at the SEC
and you look at top to bottom, I would say,
(10:24):
really impressive lineup. I think we're going to get six
seven teams in this college football playoff again.
Speaker 5 (10:29):
Yeah, you know, you know what else I think?
Speaker 6 (10:32):
I just I just want to add when we look
at look at the landscape of college football. Now, most
of the times there was always a definite quarterback. We
talked about talked about earlier in the show, the Heisman race.
You know, obviously they had they had arch Manning, who
they claim to have already appointed as the Heisman winner.
And we see how that's going going to date, and
the race is so is so is so close because
(10:55):
no one else has stepped up to the forefront. No
one else is step Yeah, you have you have, you
have players that are playing good. Johnny, you know I'm
about playing great. You know, like when you were playing,
you got to tune in to watch every time when
Cam was playing, You're Tim Tebow's. We haven't had anyone
like that. That's exciting. When you look at an Alabama team. Uh,
look at the Alabama team that had all these different strengths.
(11:19):
So when you missing those strengths most of the time,
what's going to make up for the lack of what
you have in other areas you make up for at
your quarterback position. Now he's playing okay, he's playing okay,
but he's not you know, that elite talent that you
look for.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
That makes Alabama who they once were when they lack
another area.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Well, we're gonna have to in order to think any window.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
I think you can make any throw. I think I think.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Right now he got nice on.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
I think, to be honest, I was thinking this in
the car on the way here when I was watching
the game, that he's the best quarterback we've seen in
Alabama since two in Jalen.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
I like the way he's playing better than Mac Jones dead, Yes.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
You like you're better than Bryce.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
No, No, you're right, You're right.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
But right now for what they need and what he's doing,
I mean in person versus Dandy every time they needed
to play, this guy's putting.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
The ball on the money and where they need to be.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
You know, like he definitely might have arm than than
than Bryce.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
I think the thing is is that when we go
back to thinking he'sman Trophy winners, we always think of
that signature moment, Johnny. We remember that moment with you
against Alabama. Joe Burrow, you go back and look at it.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
What was it.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
It was tennis, it was Texas. He went crazy and
it said, oh man, that's just, that's just. And then
he goes down to Tuscaloosa and he does that and
they said, Okay, he the real deal. You look at cam.
It was a Saturday night against South Carolina. He goes
berserk and then it was a no brainer. They're down
what twenty four to nothing, twenty one nothing against Alabama
(12:50):
in Alabama and iron bow and he brings them all
the way back. It was a no brain.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
It was. It was a no doubter from that point on.
So you're just.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Looking for one of these guys at a at a
big spot, nationally televised game to go haywire.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Now, Gunner Stockton played really well today. Uh you know, it.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Seemed like, especially the first half, every time Ole Miss
touched the ball, they scored a touchdown. And then in
the fourth quarter of Georgia's like Gunner Stockton was matching them,
and then all of a sudden, Georgia defense came up
with a couple of stops.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
As a matter of fact, let's go ahead and talk.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Let's get to that game, you know, talking a rod it,
let's get to Uh what are we gonna go to?
Speaker 2 (13:30):
No game and go tonight?
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Oh no Georgia.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Okay, let me that seems to be the game everybody.
I'm scar.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Ojoe. What was your favorite game of the day to day.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
When I was able to attend and actually sitting in
the student section all game? Oh you're the Kentucky Texas
man man. Listen a a Johnny man they had. They
tried to put me in the suite and I'm sitting
in the suite and I'm like, I can't do this,
I can't do it.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
Just too quiet.
Speaker 6 (14:08):
So I asked, I asked, ad, you know, do you
mind if I sit down in the student section?
Speaker 5 (14:12):
I sat in.
Speaker 6 (14:13):
I sat down in the student section all the way
to the fourth quarter. Whit had a good time.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Gogia bulldof the number nine Georgia Bulldogs at home, scored
forty three points in a shootout and beat the number
five Old Miss Rebels forty three thirty five. Gunnar Stockton
was twenty six to thirty one, two eighty nine, four
touchdowns and another touchdown on the ground. Georgia ran the
ball forty nine times two hundred and twenty one yards.
Trinidad Chamblays wasn't bad in the first half. When they
(14:41):
needed him to step up big, he didn't come up big.
Nineteen to thirty six, two sixty three, one touchdown, twenty
four rush a temps eighty eight yards. They had another
four touchdowns on the ground. But with Georgia big fourth
quarter scored seventeen points. Old Miss didn't score anything because
they had a nine point lead going into the and
then the next thing you know, the teams Georgia scores
(15:02):
forty three, scores seventeen and the fourth to take the
ball game.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Over watch it.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
I don't know how much of this game you were
able to see, Johnny, but it seemed like, Okay, whoever
gets the ball last, that's who's gonna win this ball game.
And then all of a sudden, Oh Miss couldn't do anything.
They couldn't do anything.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
Now look you look at their you look at their rushing.
They rushed it twenty four times for eighty eight yards.
You gotta have some kind of ground game, and Georgia
is very good up front. They're very stout, they're very solid.
I think you look at the first half of the game.
Their quarterback led them through that whole first half for
them to be absolutely the first half lead. Every every
third down under route was perfect in front. He's putting
(15:45):
a lot of zip on the ball. He's a really
good player. I think Lane Kiffin has a really good squad.
Look when you look back at this game, yeah, Georgia
wins by eight, but I feel like the game was
a lot closer than what the score kind of kind
of says. I think this is an Ole Miss team
that can be competitive versus anybody. I think this is
a Georgia team. If Gunnar Stockson is gonna throw four
touchdowns for two hundred and seventy five plus yards, they're
(16:08):
gonna be able to play with anybody as well. So
once again, another great SEC game. Old Mess falls a
little short. But this is one of those games you
look at their schedule and you're like, you know what,
we can drop one. We have that luxury because the
way we played for the six weeks prior.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Georgia dominated time of possession thirty almost thirty eight minutes
to twenty two minutes. Both teams really good on third down.
One was five and nine, the other was six of eleven.
Georgia had five hundred and ten total yards. Old Miss
had three fifty.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
No turnovers and only one sack. And the whole game, the.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Whole yeah, really four penalties for Old Miss for forty yards,
three penalties of thirty seven yards for Georgia. So it
was really a clean game. It wasn't a you know,
laundry on the field all over the place. There weren't
a whole lot of turnovers. But for the most for
the first three quarters, the defense could dig their heels
in and get a stop. And then when Georgia really
(17:04):
needed to bold their backs ojo, they did that and
an Old Miss really didn't have an answer.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Yeah, that's that's what I'm gonna say.
Speaker 6 (17:11):
When it matters most, who's going to make the play
when it actually matters most. If the turnovers aren't going
to make the difference in the game, when a team
that makes a few of mistakes when it comes to
executing the offense or the defense, when you got to
have it, and Georgie was able to do that and
pull it out. Old Miss played extremely well today. They
played extremely well. Hell, Georgia played played well. It was
a back and forth game and I'm thinking to myself. Well,
(17:36):
in order for either of these teams will win, they're
gonna come down to two things. Somebody had to execute
in the time where it matters most. Or turnovers is
gonna be the the side of the game. And that's
exactly exactly how I went.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Yeah, you look at I think the thing is that
when I look at an offensive defense, it doesn't matter
how good or whatever your stats say you are. We
average five hundred yards of offense. Well, we have the number
one score and defense. We're number one on third downs? Okay,
I measure offense and defense. Can you be good when
you have to be good? What good you? What good
is that you're number one on third down? If you
(18:11):
can't get off the field when you absolutely have to
in a meaningful in a game like this, doubt? What
good is scoring thirty five forty points a game and
all of a sudden you need to score, Your offense
needs to score, and you can't get it to make
it twenty four. So don't give me all this number.
I throw all that stuff out the window. Can you
get done what you need to get done when you
absolutely have to have it? Prime example of Joe the
(18:34):
other night, when you guys needed to make a play
all that. Yeh, Joe Flack throwing for this many yards
and Chase got this many yards. Okay, now you need
to go down and get in field goal range. Can
you do it now? Now it matters. All the other
stuff was great, Now it mattered. And Georgia this is
the second time they've done this. Remember Alburn, we talked
about them against Auburn, Johnny and Ojo is that albur
(18:57):
was dominating the ball game. The difference Alwyn's going in
the score. Georgia punches it out, goes ninety nine yards,
gets a field goal right before, right before in a mission,
and then they come out and take the game over
if they don't look back. Georgia down nine start the
fourth quarter, and now they score seventeen straight and they
(19:19):
don't look back. Am I surprised that how the teams
are moving the ball against Georgia, because the one thing
we know about Georgia Kirby keep defensive guys normally.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Linebackers and court and linebackers and d line.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
I was surprised at which the ease in which ole
Miss was moving the ball, at least through the first
three quarters.
Speaker 4 (19:40):
I think they have a good offense. I think Lane
is really prepared for the defenses in the scheme. Look,
these guys have gone against each other for years. Kirby's
gonna run his defense, He's gonna coach his way. Lane's
gonna coach his way, and that's the way it's gonna be.
These are guys who are very familiar with each other.
They're definitely trolling each other through throughout the game, throughout
the like they have a good relationship, but it's competitive
(20:02):
at the end of the day. So look, you see
it so much. They've gone up against each other so
much that you're gonna have so much familiarity with everything
that this is real high level college football on the
scheme side, both offensively and defensively for both squads.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
So I'm surprised that it was as high scoring as
it was. But you know, both of these teams can
go anything else.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
You want to add to that on Joe.
Speaker 5 (20:30):
No, no, no, that's pretty good. That's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Yeah, all right, we're gonna take Johnny. We're gonna get
to your squad. Now, let's go Texas. A and M
goes on the road. Scores forty five and they needed
all forty five because every bit of it. Those razorback
gave them everything they wanted down in Fayetteville, and they
get they went a squeaker forty five forty two.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Johnny's guy Marcel Reid was twenty three of thirty two
two eighty three touchdowns. He also had another touchdown on
the ground, so he had four total touchdowns. Arkansas passing
green it was nineteen to thirty two, two fifty six
three touchdowns. They ran the ball thirty two times for
two sixty eight five hundred. You guys had read it right,
(21:17):
about five hundred yards. Arkansas actually outgained you, guys, but
you guys found a way to get a victory. What
do you like about what you're seeing from your team, Johnny,
I mean, coud. Look, sometimes you might need a defense
to make a stand and then sometimes offensively you need offense.
You need to go forty plus points, and it was
clearly one of those games. Your offense really needed to
(21:38):
be flawless tonight and get forty get forty five, clean game,
no turnover, no i nts, no fumbles, a clean game,
and you guys needed it and to get a win
against the underranked Arkansas on the road.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
I thought this game was gonna be a game when
I looked at the forecasts earlier in the week. It
was wet, it was gonna rain. I thought it was
gonna be low scoring. We were gonna rely on our defense.
No no, no, no no. They score eighty seven points
in this game, and they need every single one of them.
The thing that you have to like the most is, look,
week after week, we're relying on different areas of the
(22:13):
football team to win the game. A couple weeks ago,
we needed every bit of the defense to come in
and hold some ground against Florida, against Auburn, those are good,
good wins for us.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
And then you go into an Arkansas game.
Speaker 4 (22:26):
Look, for the last thirteen fourteen years, this game between
Arkansas normally happens in Dallas, and it's been wacky every
single year.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
We found a way to pull it out. I saw
a clip of Kenney.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Hill throwing a cover two whole shot to Reynolds and
they score late in the game to tie it up
and we go on to win that.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
I'm on the sideline.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
This is ten years ago now, and the whole series
with Arkansas has been this way.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
They played us tough.
Speaker 4 (22:52):
I think from twenty thirteen on even my second year there,
they played us really, really tough. This is just one
of those matchups where you're gonna get a grinded out
style of game. The thing I like the most, no turnovers,
no sacks. Marcel Reid's not on the ground. He's running
just enough at thirty five or forty yards or whatever
he had in a touchdown to be super super effective
(23:13):
with his legs picking up a first down here when
he needs to go and get it, and he's throwing
the ball really well. Look, two hundred and eighty yards
and three touchdowns. Put some respect on his name for real.
I mean, this guy's leading a very good ball club
with a defense that looked a little banged up at
times tonight and had some guys down and coming in
and coming out. But at the end of the day, look,
(23:35):
Elko has these guys rolling, He's got them juiced. We
still have a hard schedule, we still got a game
against Missouri, we still got LSU, we still got Texas.
But for now, if they continue this week by week approach,
how can you not love the Aggies.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
I mean, we're ranking four in the country.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
We go, we're gonna get to LSU and just a
second that will be tough.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
But you look at here and Johnny, you guys had
twenty nine first down you were five for living on
third down, but you were perfect three for three on
third downs. Four hundred and ninety seven total yards possessed
the football a little less than thirty four minutes. As
you said, no turnovers. The ball wasn't on the ground,
neither was your quarterback.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Running back or missing Johns. We're missing Levon Moss. That's
a huge piece for us. So to have guys to
have Owens come in at in sixty nine.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Reid has fifty five. EJ. Smith has fifty two. Like
for us, those.
Speaker 4 (24:26):
Guys are averaging five yards of carry, nine point two
yards of carry and seven point four yards of carry
and conception on gets one carry for sixteen yards.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Averaging sixteen to carry.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
Colin Klein has some stuff up at sleeve right now,
and I think he's dialing up really good game plans
every week.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
You guys will probably climb the number two to Miami.
The Canes. They lost Beck had a horrible game through
four interceptions last night. The question I have for you, Johnny,
is this the Aggies year.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
We're in the best position we've been in in decades.
We're in the best position we could possibly be in.
Our schedule is favorable, our team is playing well. Our
coach is embodying everything that Texas A and M is
about once again, and every Aggie will tell you read
any comment on any of our posts or anything in
Texas A and M. Everybody is like, just keep playing ball.
(25:26):
It's just we don't need to be crowned national champions
right now in October. We need to get into the
College Football Playoff playing good football and hopefully get a
favorable matchup.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
That's all the Aggies can hope for. So is this
our year?
Speaker 4 (25:42):
Yes, this is our year in the sense that we
need to get into the playoff. We have a schedule
that the outlook of it looks like worst case scenario,
we drop a couple. But at the end of the day,
the way they're playing, I would put us on the
field against anybody right now and say.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
We have a good shot to be victorious day.
Speaker 6 (26:02):
And you you want to get hot too, You want
that time, You want that time in them and when
you get into a groop offensively and defensively, you want
to hit it at the right time. You don't want
to peak too soon, you know, you don't want to
peak too soon. Peaked right before, maybe a week or
two before the college playoffs, and then you get going.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
That's that's when it's that's when who's.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Playing the best ball at the end of December, middle
of December.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, you don't want to peak too soon.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Look, I try to watch a different team obviously the
games that we're going to talk about, but right now,
if you, if you, if you force me, I think
Ohio State is the best team in football now. I
don't know if they play top notch competition, but the
way they defense can dominate and those those playmakers they
got on the outside and they can run the football.
(26:49):
And that quarterback I don't know where they got it from,
but he's playing his ass off.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
So the neutral because is.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
It still the same, well, you know, the first game
is at the home is a home is a home game,
and the college football playoff guy, Johnny, you know, is
it the same?
Speaker 4 (27:05):
I'm pretty sure that you still get a home game
for the for the top, for the top city get
a home game.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
So it's it's gonna be tough. Good luck going in
going into the horseshoe. Uh uh and and and beating beating, Yeah, because.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
They got to playwalk for them. They ain't gonna walk
through this playoffs.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
They're not just gonna walk down everybody and hock them
down and walk through this and be like, what's up,
We're champions again.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
That that ain't gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Well, we're gonna look the game that they they want,
they look obviously they want to be national championship, but
they want some revenge. Joe Michigan, Michigan be kicking their
ass for the last two or three years. Uh, and
it didn't make a difference. Coach Uh, Jim Harbaugh. He
leaves and now the other guy comes in and he's
still kicking the ass. And he beat him last year
in Ohio State. So you know that's how he got
(27:52):
the contract. He got that contract. Hey, may you beat
Ohio State. Yeah, let me go and get that. But
the game, the guy that you're entering. The Vanderbilt Commodores,
the number seventeen, Vanderbilt Commodores thirty one, the number ten
LSU Tigers twenty four pave of fourteen to twenty two
(28:14):
one point sixty one touchdowns no interceptions. Quarterback the ball
northern quarterback was on the ground. He had another seventeen
carries for eighty six yards and another two touchdowns, so
he had three total touchdowns. They ran the ball forty
five times for two hundred and thirty nine yards. Man,
you know Brian Kelly, now, you know he known the
(28:36):
jump ship. You know Penn State job opened it because
Cincinnati to know the Dame Notre Dame to LSU.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
It's a lot easier route up there in that conference,
that's for sure. And he's gonna have a lot less
of a hot seat up there. It'd be nice and comfy,
cushy new contracts. Look, Bandy can play. They went in
there at home play well.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
He scrambled out of a lot of plays. They had
a lot of explosive plays in this game. LSU did,
and Vandy answered back every single time. Pavia, he can
just scramble for a touchdown late in the fourth or whatever.
It was really good drive by them. I think Bandy
just answered the call. This is not the Vandy of old.
They are playing with a lot of swagger. They played
(29:24):
two and a half really good quarters versus Bbama and
then kind of let it down and didn't play the
way they needed to. But the end of the day,
Vandy's a good football team. Diego Pavia is an experienced
veteran of a quarterback, a guy who spent a lot
of time there. He plays with a lot of swagger,
a lot of heart, and the guys on the team
love him. You look at the sideline when he comes
(29:44):
off when they score a touchdown. That's great team camaraderie.
He's a great kid. He's a great friend of mine,
and I'm happy for him. If you look at the
LSU side of things, we're back to banging our head
against the wall because this is a tough one to swallow.
You see it on the sideline. Nes Meyer was hurt
after this one, and you know, for me, I've had
(30:05):
a lot of people reach out to me about you know,
why are you supporting Diego Pavia so hard? When you
got a guy and Marcel read at a and m
is doing amazing things.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
You want me to tell you why?
Speaker 4 (30:17):
Because I fuck with every quarterback that's going out and
living their dream and playing on Saturdays, every single one
of them.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Carson Beck, You're on.
Speaker 4 (30:26):
My shit list a little bit right now after what
you did this week, But I still love you. I'm
still going to see you in the club to live
on Sunday, I'm sure. Nevertheless, I want to be a
guy who comes in and helps hype up these dudes,
give them good advice, learn from my downfalls, from my
pit polls. So whether it's Marcel, whether it's Diego, whether
(30:48):
it's Ty Simpson, whoever it is, I'm reaching out to
all these guys. I'm sending a lot of love and
a lot of advice in whatever capacity they want it from.
For me and any quarterback that's out there and college
football living their dream, walking into a Saturday and putting
the university on their back to go try and win
a game, there's nothing belove for me.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
Vanderbelta sixty one for the first time in seventy five years,
and so in seven decades, seven and a half decades,
they're six and one. Pavia has a passing in a
rustling touchdown in twenty five straight games. That is the
second longest streak since behind FSU Tommy Costellano's twenty seven games.
(31:31):
W Look, this is not the Vanderbilt that I grew
up on, Ojo, you grew up on where they was
everybody's homecoming. They had their coming out party last year
when they did what they did Tobama, and everybody thought
that was a that was a one time thing. They
backed it up this year. They played Alabama tough. As
Johnny mentioned, Now they get a win over number ten
(31:53):
team in the country. So now they start to believe
because they got this quarterback. When you got a quarterback,
you got a chance. I don't give it down what
conference you're play in, and I don't care who you play.
If you got a guy that's gonna touch the ball
in college somewhere between sixty five and.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Eighty times a game, if he's legit, you got a chance.
Speaker 6 (32:15):
And that is That's exactly what they got. That's why
Vanderbilt looks the way they looking now. This is why
they've been There's why they're six and one after being
after never having a record like this at seventy five years.
You know how, I, God damn I got to do this,
not being able to be to be good, and obviously
it's obviously coaching, but also having the players, having the
(32:38):
players on both sides of the ball, including special teams
as well.
Speaker 5 (32:41):
That gets left out.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
But when you have a quarterback in place, like you said,
that can handle what he needs to do as much
as he touches the ball.
Speaker 5 (32:50):
This is how you look.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
Being the dominated time of possession almost twelve twelve and
a half minutes longer than actually thirteen minutes longer than
LSU had the ball. There was six or thirteen on
third down. There was two or three on fourth down.
Uh yeah, if you.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
Were Brian Kelly, if you were Brian Kelly. Right, we
know how he is.
Speaker 4 (33:20):
We've seen his press conferences, We've seen how he is.
He's got a track record throughout the years.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
But if you were sitting there and you were in
his shoes, what do you do?
Speaker 2 (33:29):
I would have never left. I would have We don't.
I don't know if I know.
Speaker 4 (33:34):
To dame, no, sir, but now you do, and you're
in the booths, and now you got a bunch of
fired occasions on your ass every week, and you ain't
got If.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
You can't win an LSU, you're not winning the Penn State.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
I agree with your superior athletes, say LSU D Now
I understand it's it's a superior I think I think
the SEC is the toughest conference in football.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Now you can debate Dad and go back and forth.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
I mean team for team, but I think when you
go back and look at it, more players come out
of the SEC go to the NFL than any other conference.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
That's that's happened. I don't I don't think.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
I don't think he can recruit any better at Penn
State than what he's recruiting at LSU.
Speaker 6 (34:17):
Agreed, But can I say something real quick on and
you know, you know one thing. It doesn't even come
down to recruiting anymore. It doesn't come down to recruiting anymore.
I don't care how I don't care how many houses
and how many coulcteres you sit on and talk to
people's family. It all comes down to the check that
you're writing, the check that you're writing for these individual
players that you want to come in and change the
(34:39):
dijectory of your team and want a chance to compete
acc SEC.
Speaker 5 (34:44):
It doesn't matter how much are you willing to pay,
because in order.
Speaker 6 (34:47):
To win now, which is why we said that the
playing field has even from team to team and there's
no domination by one team. A week to week we
watch these games on Saturday, there's a good chance that
either team can win. It's a good chance and we've
and we've seen that time and time again this year
it always happened. Teams are team that normally dominated back
(35:08):
in the days aren't dominating like they want like they
once did. Why Because the money money talks is different.
Players are going all over Where Is.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
There more money at Penn State or LSU?
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Wooh, that's interesting.
Speaker 5 (35:22):
That's a good that's a good one.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
Because I think it's about the same.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
I do, yeah, I think.
Speaker 4 (35:27):
I say it's probably pretty close. I say you're gonna
have a twenty million dollars roster at both places. Probably
that's just a number. You got some schools that are
going to spend twenty five, twenty six, twenty seven.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
That's a seven million dollar difference. You're definitely gonna have
some backups in a better spot and some starting players
in different positions that are making a little bit more.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
But for the top, you know, ten to fifteen programs,
you're at a twenty plus million dollar roster.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
I think it's probably pretty close.
Speaker 4 (35:54):
I think I think the SEC and LSU and what
they've done has been historically better, So you're gonna have
a little pedigree there and just where you're recruiting the
athletes from and in the South is going to be
better at LSU. So he's gonna have to grind it out,
try to find another quarterback after Ana Smyer that can
get the program rolling and you just stick it out.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Yeah, he's known the jump ship. I don't know, uh, o, Joe.
If the same amount of money, uh you know, you
had Jane Daniels and you didn't win a national championship
or you didn't even come close.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
It's it's always he's always.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Losing the game, Johnny that You're like, Okay, they're gonna
win this one and somebody nips it, somebody get somebody
gets him. And then you know he would be a
hard coach to play for because you know he blame
He blamed the players and this and that.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
I'm like, bro, what about you? What about you?
Speaker 3 (36:49):
You?
Speaker 2 (36:49):
You? You? You?
Speaker 5 (36:51):
You?
Speaker 2 (36:51):
He was talking about us, and this is not what
we coach. It is. It is.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
The direct Inspire Bank account. Every week he's happy, no
matter what.
Speaker 4 (37:03):
He he's sending the blame everywhere else.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
Twenty twenty five nil rankings, LSU twenty million, Penn State
thirteen million.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
Okay, there you go. Seven million more.
Speaker 5 (37:16):
That's huge, hey, matter of fact, on their ranking, number.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
One, Ohio State is or Texas A and m.
Speaker 3 (37:23):
Okay, it's gonna be close. Worried about twenty six twenty Probably.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
Texas is number one with twenty two.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
They had a good game today against Kentucky.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Ohio stat is two at twenty twenty one or twenty
point five. Wow, so think about it. The top three
are in the SEC. No, Ohio excuse me, LSU LSU
is three, Texas is won. You got Ohio State's Matt
(37:55):
dab in the middle. Alabama up there somewhere.
Speaker 3 (37:58):
What's the top five? Does it say?
Speaker 5 (38:00):
What did you say?
Speaker 3 (38:03):
Alabama three?
Speaker 1 (38:06):
No, l s U is three, Texas, Ohio State l
s U, Georgia A and.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Em A right four out of five SEC?
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Alabama is seven? Who's six?
Speaker 3 (38:23):
Oregon?
Speaker 1 (38:29):
But could we feel a switch? Michigan is six? Could
we see a flip? James Frankly goes to l s U.
Brian Kelly goes to Benn's state.
Speaker 4 (38:44):
I think I think Penn State needs to go after
Matt rule with everything that they have because Nebraska ain't
going nowhere.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
They can't beat Minnesota. We're just we're out in the
woods and the mud, with our tires spinning and just
burning the engine. We ain't going nowhere with that program.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
I think the thing is, But Harry, let me ask
you this, Johnny, because I think the thing a lot
of times is that I remember what Nebraska used to be.
Speaker 3 (39:12):
Of course, this is like talking about how Colorado and
what they used to be.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
I remember what Penn State used to be.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
The question is, and maybe we need to re shape
our vision or what we think they can be.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
Can Penn State ever be what they once were?
Speaker 4 (39:31):
Yes, in my opinion, yes, their conference is too easy.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
You get two big games a year. Go win those
big games. If you lose one, you're in the playoff.
Speaker 4 (39:44):
Every year, your program's hyped up enough, you're gonna be
ranked in the top twenty five. You go eleven, twelve
and one, you're in the playoff. All you gotta do
is play ball at the right time. So yes, because
your conference is so easy.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Well, Penn State might have been looking at Signetti, but
he's like nah Indiana, saying, Nah, y'all ain't gonna get him.
Speaker 2 (40:05):
Hey, we're gonna drop the bag on him. Eleven point six.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
We make you the third highest paid he deserves it
behind Kirby and or Ryan Day. Yeah, absolutely to win. Look,
I mean he took us. He took a team that's
a basketball school. Indiana's a basketball school. Everybody, when you
think of down, you think of coach to Night, and
you think of the Hoosiers and being undefeated in seventy six,
(40:29):
the last the last college basketball team to go undefeated
and win the national championship. That's what you think about this.
He's making you real valuate how we look at the Hoosiers.
So now they're just not known for that bicycle race
that they have every year where the co ed is
ride their bikes for I don't know what is the
fifty miles seventy five miles or the basketball team. He's
(40:52):
a hell of a coach. He was on coach saving Staff.
He was a wide receiver coach Ojoe. But he wanted
to be a head coach. He left go to a
Division two school. Take one hundred and twenty five thousand
dollars pay cut. Got a daughter about to go to college,
he says, but I want to be a head coach here.
What Look, you already know if you coach on if
(41:12):
you were on Nick Saban staff who didn't get ahead job,
Lane Kenny Kirby, Smart, Billy Napier, a Crystal Bull, a mel.
Speaker 2 (41:21):
Tucker who didn't get a job.
Speaker 1 (41:23):
Dan Landy was a grand assistant head coach, Signati head
coach who didn't get a head job.
Speaker 6 (41:31):
If you're on a staff and I got a question
speaking of head coaching jobs and vacancies that are open state, Yes,
what the chances that Nick Saban comes back and takes
that and takes that.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
Well, they were talking about it this morning.
Speaker 1 (41:44):
Zero Miss Terry say he having too much fun and
she don't want to take no championship from their babies,
which is Lane Kirby. I don't know how much longer,
Billy Napier, you're gonna have that job in Florida if
you don't went out from here. And that's not a
very good chance because I think they still got Georgia
on their on their schedule. But I don't I don't
think Coach Sab But I don't think Coach Saban is
(42:05):
coming back because the issue that that forced him out
still exists.
Speaker 4 (42:09):
I think you're gonna have to get some of these
younger coaches that are coming up in the ranks. The
coach at us F, the coach at uh Tulane, Texas
State has a really good coach.
Speaker 3 (42:20):
It's up and coming on offense.
Speaker 4 (42:23):
I think you're gonna have to find these young guys
who are offensive minded, who put a good program together
on a on a smaller, smaller scale, and you're gonna
have to give him the opportunity and roll with some youth.
Speaker 3 (42:35):
And that's it.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
Yeah, when you when you look, look what if does
if he comes out of retirement, O joe and win
the championship, that doesn't change you. Everybody believes he's the
greatest college coach they will live. He got one of them.
Yet he got six at Alabama and he lost. He
lost the Clemson, he lost to Georgia. So he's the greatest.
(42:58):
It's either him or or Coach Bryant is the greatest
college coaches they ever lived.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
That both of Alabama. So that's what we do know.
Speaker 1 (43:05):
The two greatest college coaches ever to ever coach is
Coach Bryant a coach Saban. Many believe Coach Bryant considering
you know a lot of those championships that he won
was before integration. Coach Bryant did so we get that,
But I don't think coach Saban, I don't think anything.
He comes out and whin he wins number eight, Do
you think more of him because he won eight intill
(43:26):
the seventh. No, and it's just more headache. He's like,
you know what, he got a great job. He does
an unbelievable job on college game day. He's great at it.
He can, he knows it. He knows how to talk
and on both sides he can talk to the players,
and like how he was with the players.
Speaker 2 (43:42):
It's like when the player when they.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
Were good, I was harder on my coaches and the
team when they were good. I was easier on them
when we lost. So I don't see coach Saban coming out.
But hey, never say never because that encompasses never in always,
And I don't believe in saying that.
Speaker 2 (44:00):
Actually, how much money Paistate.
Speaker 3 (44:02):
Got a lot?
Speaker 2 (44:06):
You got fifteen meal of a year.
Speaker 3 (44:08):
But I mean probably it ain't gonna happen.
Speaker 4 (44:12):
It really is, and they need to go find somebody
that has wanted that Penn State jobs. It's a dream
job for them that really cares and can buy into
what it is because it is a good job at
the end of the day, Like we said and spoke
about a couple of weeks ago, do we think James
Franklin should have been let go?
Speaker 3 (44:28):
Probably not.
Speaker 4 (44:29):
But at the end of the day, it's a good opening,
a good job. You're going to see some good openings
of good jobs around the country and we're gonna see
who they fill them with.
Speaker 1 (44:39):
Ash was saying that on college game Day that Miss
Terry said, we haven't heard a number yet. It is,
and I think gimm sixty is a is coach Saban's agent. Also, Look,
I think he's very content with where he is right
now and what he's doing right now.
Speaker 2 (44:57):
He makes good money doing what he does.
Speaker 1 (44:59):
He still has an office at Alabama, they still pay him,
and I don't think he wants to deal with a
headache at this agent time.
Speaker 3 (45:08):
I agreed, right, So what you think about.
Speaker 2 (45:11):
You, huh, I don't want it.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
They ain't got a number, They ain't got a number
big enough because you already you already know how I am.
I ain't got no patience, and so it's understood that's
why I've never no coach. I've never been wanted to
be a coach because I know my patience I already
know how am I would get mad at the guys.
Bro We don't practice this all week. We talked about
(45:33):
the first fifteen Saturday morning, we went over the next
fifteen to that Saturday night, and then you come and
if it up Sunday op the gate.
Speaker 2 (45:43):
No, I couldn't do that, man, I couldn't.
Speaker 5 (45:46):
I mean I could just I could see the program
turning around under you.
Speaker 3 (45:50):
What about this? What about Dion.
Speaker 2 (45:54):
At Penn State?
Speaker 3 (45:57):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (46:01):
I don't me personally, I don't know how much time going,
how much longer time got to coach. I don't know
if his health is going to allow him to have
one of those long careers, right, you know what I'm saying.
You know, he got in at You know, most coaches
start start coaching college in their thirties. He got in
really late. I mean, you got to think about it.
(46:23):
He was in his fifties when he got in. I mean,
think about Bobby Bolden, coach coach Biden when he retired
with forty years of coaching, he was only in his seventies.
So I just don't know if his health, you know,
dealing what he's had to deal with with the blood clots.
You know standing doesn't help out. The burning of the
(46:43):
midnight oil doesn't help. You know, he had the batter surgery.
That can't help. I just don't know if his his
his help is going to allow him to have.
Speaker 2 (46:54):
A long, fruitful, fruitful, prosperous career.
Speaker 3 (46:58):
I know I would definitely, I would definitely called Jimbo Fishers.
Speaker 1 (47:03):
Hey, hey, jim will say he already packaged you'all money.
So yeah, I go, I double dip. He's a y'all
gave it. Y'all gave me, y'all gave me eighty four.
Hey what y'all gave me?
Speaker 4 (47:13):
Amy S have him buyout money too, you know what.
To be honest, Penn State may be able to get
I mean, Jimbo.
Speaker 1 (47:18):
Get him, get it for the five get it for
a five million dollar deal, sign him up for ten
of them.
Speaker 2 (47:23):
Yeah, you're right, you're right.
Speaker 4 (47:28):
Another great day in college football all the way around,
though a lot of upsets this week. A lot of
people went down. Arizona State played a really good game
against number seven Texas Tech today.
Speaker 3 (47:39):
You see the Miami Kines they lose, go down.
Speaker 4 (47:42):
All the way through there was there was a lot
of upsets, a lot of good ball from from underdogs
this week. So it's a hell of a week for
college football. I think everybody who was watching should have
enjoyed thoroughly this week.
Speaker 1 (47:55):
Yeah, but I don't know if Piste go let Prime
have all them, all them jerseys and all them com.
Speaker 2 (48:00):
The nations, you know, piss dawn. They got two colors.
Speaker 1 (48:04):
They got black tops with white pants, and they got
white tops with white pants.
Speaker 5 (48:08):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (48:09):
That's it, that's all you get.
Speaker 1 (48:13):
The number twenty one Texas Longhorn go down to Lexington
and hold on and win sixteen to thirteen over UK
University of Kentucky. Kentucky got stopped second and goal, thirty goal,
fourth and goal. Texas goes down, kicks the field goal,
and they went at sixteen thirteen. Arch Manning did not
have the best day, but they won the ball game.
Speaker 2 (48:36):
He was twelve or twenty.
Speaker 1 (48:37):
Seven, one hundred and thirty two yards, no touchdowns, no interceptions.
Quin Trevion Wisner ran the long touchdown. How they won
this game, I don't know, Joe. They had one hundred
and thirty two yards passing and forty seven yards rushing,
(48:57):
so they had less than one hundred and eighty yard
yards the opposing team had over four hundred yards.
Speaker 2 (49:07):
And they get a victory.
Speaker 1 (49:10):
Johnny, I need you to help me understand how Texas
wasn't this ball game eight first downs, five of sixteen
on third down, one hundred and seventy nine total yards,
twelve of twenty seven. They possessed the ball half the
time that UK had it. U K had twenty six
first downs. They had three hundred and ninety five total yards,
(49:34):
so they outgained about over two hundred possessed the ball
nineteen minutes longer.
Speaker 2 (49:40):
Yeah, somehow lost.
Speaker 4 (49:41):
The quarterback in Texas throws for forty four percent completion
on the day for one hundred and thirty two yards
four point nine yards in attempt. Texas is rushing attack
this year. That is what we like to call a
Bizmoer ball. They can't run out of a wet paper
bag forty seven yards rushing one point seven yards of
(50:06):
carry and this is.
Speaker 3 (50:07):
In four quarters of football, right. I don't know how
they seek out of here with this one.
Speaker 4 (50:11):
But at the end of the day, you gotta give
them their props. Everybody in Austin's throwing their horns up
tonight and saying we snuck out of there with one.
I mean, let's turn it over to the man that
sat in the student section and watch.
Speaker 2 (50:24):
That's what I was about to say.
Speaker 1 (50:25):
Oh Joe, you had a bird's eye view of this
ball game. Yeah, you probably thought, man, the Wildcats go
and get a victory over the number twenty one Risks Longhorns.
So you were there. Uh, we got video on you
were there?
Speaker 6 (50:40):
We do oh lord, haven't mer Yeah? Hey, a you
see you see the rhythm the whole week we was
at the going.
Speaker 1 (50:54):
I'm like, you know what I'm like, I'm like this
day of pleader. I don't know that food.
Speaker 5 (51:05):
Hey listen, listen.
Speaker 6 (51:07):
If I'm gonna if if I'm going to go to
a college game, obviously my daughter's homecoming, I need the experience.
Speaker 5 (51:12):
I told the A D.
Speaker 6 (51:14):
I told Ray Ray Oliver, who is my strength and
conditioning coach, when it was in Cincinnaty.
Speaker 5 (51:18):
If I'm coming, yeah that I know. Yeah, raids in Kentucky.
I said, do not put do not put me in
a suite.
Speaker 2 (51:28):
Do that.
Speaker 6 (51:28):
I want to know what it's like to be at
a at a school of this magnitude and sit with
the students in that section because I know they get turned,
so they put me down there and watching and watching
the game for me. Kentucky as many yards as they
did have had Johnny and on, they couldn't score. They
couldn't put themselves in position to get field goals. If
you don't if you're not going to score, and defense
(51:50):
was playing well enough to where you should have won
this game. This is a game that you should have won.
This is a game that you should have won. You
should have had more opportunities to to do some of
the things that Texas couldn't. It just to me offensively
in the since I'm trying not to say anything like
(52:12):
too bad about missus stutths because they hit the whole
crowd hunk.
Speaker 5 (52:15):
I'm not sure what's going on. It's my first time
beating the game.
Speaker 6 (52:18):
But everybody they chanting fire stoops, fire stoops.
Speaker 5 (52:22):
I'm like, but god, damn, what do they do wrong?
Speaker 6 (52:24):
But then I watch how they play offensively and what
they were doing where at times Johnny couln't even get
pass me infield.
Speaker 1 (52:30):
Hell, don't look like Texas guys, bass millfielder'spt that long tochdown?
Do they remember what you do? What Kentucky was before
Stop's got there. I don't think they remember that, Johnny.
They do realize that's a basketball school.
Speaker 2 (52:43):
It's been a.
Speaker 3 (52:43):
Long time since the hefty Lefty Jared Lorenzo and wrestling
my guy here and also also guy, my guy, Randall Cobb.
Speaker 4 (52:53):
It's been a long, long long time since those Kentucky
Wildcats have been in New Jersey. So listen, sec everybody
wants to be good, but they need to get ready
for hoops season.
Speaker 3 (53:03):
They'll be all right.
Speaker 1 (53:04):
Yeah, I mean, look, you only gonna first of all,
you only gonna get You only gonna.
Speaker 3 (53:10):
Get such some players.
Speaker 1 (53:13):
First of all, it's not like Kentucky is like when
you think a great football players. I mean Sean I
think Seana Exander's from Kentucky. But where did he go?
Speaker 2 (53:22):
Ojoe? Alabama?
Speaker 5 (53:24):
Alabama.
Speaker 2 (53:26):
So if your.
Speaker 1 (53:27):
Best players are leaving or leaving the state, you don't
have much of a chance, especially if you Kentucky. Now
you know you are obviously Florida. They're gonna be spread out.
You got um, you got UF and you got f
s U and then some gonna go to Alabama, some
gonna go to Ohio State. So they're gonna be spread out.
But Kentucky, you've got to keep your best. You can't
(53:48):
afford to have your best go and make somebody else's
program better better, And that's what Kentucky. Like I said,
I think Students has done a great job. Get what
he's got. I mean, I don't know, y'all. Don getting
Nick Saban.
Speaker 4 (54:05):
Listen, we uh we at one point in time through
our coaching search after Jimbo tried to hire Mark Stoops
and uh college station almost burnt to the ground. So
I don't know what it is about him or what
people think about him. I respect him. I played against him.
He was at OU whenever I was there, whenever I
was playing against him. I think he's a good coach.
(54:27):
I think he's doing the most with what he has
a content and that's what you got to give him
credit for it.
Speaker 3 (54:33):
But today, in this setting, in this game, this is
one you got to go reach out and grab and finally.
Speaker 1 (54:39):
Right, I think also people like with Indiana is a
college is a is a basketball school. But look at
what Signetti did, so why can't that be us.
Speaker 4 (54:51):
Signetti came in and said, listen, you know what I do.
I win everywhere I go. Google me, bitch, that's what
he said he did, and he came in. You know what,
I don't care to work Indiana. I don't care that
I'm out here doing this. I'm gonna go find a
way to make it happen. The running game looks good.
Their receivers can play, their quarterback has game. Mendoza's playing
(55:13):
with it real and those Mendoza's g now, I don't
know if he had to run that gauntlet. That's their CC.
That's a that's a whole that's a whole different animal.
Speaker 1 (55:26):
Look, Kentucky's gone to a couple of bowl games, but
I think you know, when you look at it, what
is their realistic expectations? Are they expecting to be in
the college football playoffs? Are they expecting to contend for
a national Well, I mean when you got Georgia, Alabama, LSU, Texas, A,
and m when you got all those on your.
Speaker 2 (55:47):
Scheduled, damn. But that's murderer's role.
Speaker 1 (55:50):
That's why it's so hard for our team, even the Alabama,
the LSU, even the top teams to go undefeated in
that conference. Yeah, you'll get a situation like Alabama has
gone undefeated. You get to twenty nineteen LSU when you
talk about one of the historically great teams in college
football history. But for the most part, you're not going
(56:10):
unscathed in the SEC. It's just not gonna happen. So
I just need to know Kentucky if I, if I,
you know, could talk to their fan base or their alumni,
what is your realistic expectation for UK?
Speaker 3 (56:23):
Is it not eight and four?
Speaker 5 (56:27):
Eight and four is good with the ball?
Speaker 1 (56:29):
Yeah, for sure. I don't think they're gonna get I
don't know. I don't think they're gonna get to eight
and four this year. But I mean, can they get
Bowl eligible? What's what's the.
Speaker 2 (56:37):
UK remaining schedule?
Speaker 5 (56:40):
There? They're two and three goes.
Speaker 1 (56:41):
They're two and four right now, and so they played
what twelve games, so they got six games to go,
So if theoretically they could go eight and four.
Speaker 3 (56:51):
All right, here we go.
Speaker 4 (56:52):
The last fifteen years of Kentucky football. Six and seven
lost in the Gator Bawl, seven and six lost in
the Gator seven and six lost Music City Bowl, ten
and three, twenty twenty one Citrus Ball beat Iowa five
and six, eight and five, ten and three and twenty
eighteen beat Penn State and then you go back seven
(57:15):
and six, seven and six, five and seven, five and seven,
two and ten, two and ten, five and seven, six
and seven, So you got a couple ten and three
sprinkled down, but really your medium point for success seven six.
Speaker 3 (57:29):
Yeah, they looked would be out of this wall for
them in the Bowl win.
Speaker 2 (57:33):
They just lost to Texas.
Speaker 1 (57:35):
They're at home versus Tennessee at Auburn home versus Florida. Uh,
they got Tennessee Tech at home at Vanderbilt at Louisville.
Speaker 2 (57:45):
Today didn't work out well. Tomorrow ain't looking much better.
Speaker 5 (57:51):
Listen, listen.
Speaker 6 (57:52):
Today looked much better than what people thought it would
have been because they were there was the chance UK
had a chance to win this game. They just couldn't
put the ball in position to score. Maybe if you
can't get a touchdown, get three. They could barely get
fifty hunkare.
Speaker 5 (58:10):
And to me.
Speaker 6 (58:11):
It just kept seeing like they kept running the same
play draw, draw draw, I'm like, what.
Speaker 5 (58:17):
What what It's the same thing over and over.
Speaker 2 (58:20):
I'm looking at this No play down here.
Speaker 6 (58:22):
I saw, I saw, I saw a few dig routes,
a few flat routes, but there was there was really
no creativity to the offense. And obviously you are playing
against a very good Texas team, so I kind of
understand you don't want to put your young quarterback in
harm's way.
Speaker 5 (58:37):
That makes your decision making. It is good, you know,
you don't want to put too much on the plate.
Speaker 6 (58:42):
But a game like this, man, you throw everything.
Speaker 1 (58:48):
They got Tennessee Auburn, Florida and on the road against
vand and Louisville. Like I said, better, that's tough.
Speaker 3 (59:03):
Yeah, onto the hardwood, Onto the hardwood.
Speaker 1 (59:10):
Jeremiah Love and the Number thirteen No the name Fighting
Irish beat the Number twenty USC Trojan thirty four to
twenty four in the ninety six meeting between the two rivals.
Love finished with a career high two hundred and twenty
eight rushing yards and a touchdown to lead Notre Dame
attack that racked up three hundred and six rush yards.
(59:30):
Not to name finished with four hundred and forty two
total yards. Juderian Price also added eighty seven yards rushing
on a touchdown and returned the kickoff one hundred yards
for a touchdown.
Speaker 2 (59:45):
A m USC. They just did whatever they wanted to
do to y'all. Here it is see.
Speaker 6 (59:52):
This is one of the few games that wasn't able
to see. I didn't get the chance to see this one. Hey,
how did the receiver do? The receiver from USC, he's
really good?
Speaker 2 (01:00:01):
Uh laying six eleven.
Speaker 3 (01:00:06):
Eighteen point five to catch?
Speaker 2 (01:00:08):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (01:00:09):
The quarterback eighteen two turnovers? Though that was the difference
in the ball game? Well, actually turn the ball over
three times? Might they could have held onto it?
Speaker 2 (01:00:21):
Quarterback.
Speaker 4 (01:00:22):
Notre Dame is doing what they need to do if
they need to go through and run the table, and
they're going and playing.
Speaker 3 (01:00:26):
This is a huge rivalry game. Forever Notre Dame comes through, they.
Speaker 2 (01:00:30):
Can't lose another game, though, Johnny to run the.
Speaker 4 (01:00:32):
Table, don't don't run it. Look a look at their schedule.
Let's let's take a peek at their schedule for the
rest of the way. All right, they got Boston College,
dumb Navy, dumb pit dumb Syracuse. Okay, they'll play him
tough and then Stanford, so get their Syracuse and they
(01:00:58):
do it.
Speaker 6 (01:01:00):
Hey, listen for football. Football on Saturdays has been so funny.
The teams that the teams that you're supposed to be
that there's been a lot of surprises this season. There
have been a lot of surprises.
Speaker 1 (01:01:11):
Know, The Dame is known to give it up to
a team the Northern Illinois, and they are Northern Illinois.
Speaker 2 (01:01:20):
Teams like always trip them up.
Speaker 3 (01:01:26):
Oh I like. I like Notre Dame. Look, they maybe
have one of the best running backs in the country.
Speaker 4 (01:01:31):
I think they do. They have a quarterback who you
go back and look at the A and M game
really solid. You look up through the board. Their defense
is solid. They're a team that can get in the
playoff and cast some havoc. Their coach is really good.
Speaker 1 (01:01:47):
I tell you what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna force
that quarterback to beat me. I am as well. I'm
not gonna let do I'm not gonna let them run
the ball. I'm not gonna let them run the ball. Definitely,
you're not getting th three hundred yards rushing because I
mean you run the ball three hundred for three hundred yards,
that means you you got the ball.
Speaker 2 (01:02:06):
You got to have the ball for an extended period
of time.
Speaker 1 (01:02:10):
Well, yeah, they didn't have it that long, only thirty
two minutes, thirty three minutes, which is not a long
amount of time when you're considering. But see they were
three of eleven on third down, so e third down
is tough because if you you you you know, let's
(01:02:31):
just say, for the sake of argument, you six or
seven for eleven, that means you're gonna be on the
field for an extra two minutes.
Speaker 3 (01:02:38):
Yeah, yeah, but.
Speaker 2 (01:02:43):
I don't know, link you may.
Speaker 3 (01:02:44):
They win the turnover battle.
Speaker 4 (01:02:47):
They have ninety one more yards and penalties though, but
game amount of first downs four hundred and forty two yards. Look,
it's another it's another good win for Notre Dame. They're
just trucking along doing what they need to do. Let's
try and get in the playoff and see if we
can't make some shape.

I mentioned before, Johnny is joining us tonight. Go subscribe
to his podcast. It's on your YouTube channel, Glory Days
with Johnny Manzeah. As we mentioned before, the number sixth
Alabama crimson tied took down the number eleven Tennessee volunteers
(03:37):
thirty seven to twenty. Todd Simpson was sensational again tonight,
Johnny nineteen of twenty nine two fifty three, two touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
But the game was broken open right before the half.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Looked like Tennessee was going in to get a score
and he's late and inside on a flat rote what
we call flow pass is to the flat and then
you have a seven route and you know, if you
layton and on that, I hope you got somebody fast
that can run somebody down, because it's gonna be a house,
it's gonna be a curtain call. And that's what happened,
and Alabama really never looked back. Tennessee rand the ball
(04:12):
really well, bishoped with sensational fourteen cares a buck twenty
three two touchdowns, but they got stopped on fourth down.
And for all intents and purposes, the game was over.
Johnny watching this game, Alabama came out on fidy, got
the touchdown with right down the field, and then all
of a sudden they struggle for a few drives. Tennessee
comes back and ties it up. They get a field goal,
and then right you know, get another touchdown and then
(04:34):
that pick right before the half. I really think that
that took a lot of momentum and win out of
the sale of the volunteers.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
One hundred percent.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
Anytime you have Alabama has an opposing quarterback that they
may throw it forty four times in the game, that's
not going to be a recipe for success. I think
you look at the game, everything was okay, Tennessee's going
into score, the whole game is gonna change. Then you
throw it lighton inside, like we said, it's deuces. So
(05:04):
I mean that's a play you can't come back from.
You can have a great second half and try and
go get some clean up points late or whatever you're
trying to do. But for the most part, Bamba has
a really good football team. So at the end of
the day, if you're not going to come out and
play flawless football, no turnovers, win the turnover battle, run
it down their throat, be aggressive. Look right now, in
(05:27):
my opinion, I wrote this down when I walked in.
I got three guys right now who were playing really
good ball at the quarterback position, as far as taking
over a Heisman race, looking really good, having their moments.
I Senson, for sure, you have to throw them in there.
I think he's playing as good as anybody in the country.
I think Diego Pavia and what he's doing and what
Bandy did today. They just kept coming at LSU all
(05:49):
day today and then a m is undefeated for the
first time since nineteen ninety four. Marcel Reid more touchdowns
tonight leading that team.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
You go on the road, you win to shoot out.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Those guys have big moments coming up throughout the rest
of the season to really solidify what they want to do.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Yeah, you're absolutely right.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
I think the thing is when you're playing in the SEC,
when you look at it and you look at the
schedule that's remaining, whoever can, if you can run the table,
that definitely helps. But if whoever wins lose the fewest games.
I thought Gunner stocked them play really well. I like
the kid up at Ohio State He's played really well,
but it's gonna come down. And when you look at it, nobody,
(06:30):
we're not even really Johnny, if you really think about it,
Oh yow, we're not even really talking about the Heisman race.
Normally at this point in time, somebody would have stepped
out there and be like, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
But we just got a bunch of guys just plumped
together and we're waiting for someone to take to take
the lead and move to the front.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (06:48):
Jo watching this game, Alabama thirty seven, Tennessee twenty, This
doesn't look like the.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
Alabama that I'm used to seeing.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Because the Alabama I'm used to seeing the run they
can put pressure on the quarterback with four they can't
do even now.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
I was thinking, really saying the same thing.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
They don't look like the Alabama all for one, when
you look at the Tennessee and the Alabama playing most
of the time, Alabama used to dominance, not dominance in spurs,
but dominance in all four courses of a game. Obviously,
Tennessee had a chance to keep the game close. Throwing
an interception before half. Obviously that sets things apart, and
(07:26):
it makes it that much more difficult. When you turn
the ball over against a good Alabama team, not very
very good what we're used to seeing, but a good
Alabama team. Then they run away with the game and
you turn it all over and don't take advantage of
the opportunity that you do have to score. Outside of that,
you expect Alabama to win a game like this when
they're playing a team like Tennessee that had success in
(07:48):
the running game but weren't able to dominate innother areas
to really give themselves a chance to actually compete, especially
in the second hand.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
Do you think Alabama? Alabama normally do three things really well.
They run the football, they stopped the run, and they
can get out of your quarterback with four If you
go back and look at all those defensive guy that's gone,
they normally have really good on the back end. They
got corners and safety that's going in the first round.
And they have d Liman that can fly out get
after you. They don't really have that now, we don't see. Look,
(08:19):
they got some sacks early forty two. I can't remember
his name off the top of my head. I'm sorry
about that, and he got a safety. But other than that,
Johnny when you go back and look at Alabama, the
guy was just patting the ball and normally in order
to beat Alabama. If you go back and look at Alabama,
since coach Saban got there, and now, it's normally a
mobile quarterback, it's the Johnny Manziel's, it's the Cam Newton's.
(08:42):
It's guys that can move around that normally beat him
just dropping back and throwing the ball.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
It's really not to happen that often.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Corter Jones had success in the College Football Playoff that
one year, and I think Trevor Knight threw the ball
where they went to the Sugar Bowl. They thought they
was going to the National championship. Coach Saban said they
weren't mentally prepared, but normally it's mobile quarterbacks that gives
them fit.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
I'm looking at I'm looking at this Alabama. Yes, it's
a big time winning.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Anytime you could be a division team, a conference opponent
that's ranked.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Very high, you feel good.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
But this not, This doesn't look like johnn and Ocho
the Alabama that we're used to see, don't.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
I don't know if it needs to though, I don't
know if we're gonna see the same saban lad, We're
we're not gonna see the old Alabama of what we're
used to. This is a very new era, new coaching
style Alabama. But right now they have a quarterback that's
playing off the charts. They have a run game that's
able to move the ball. They have a defense that's
doing enough. You know, they're solid all the way through.
(09:41):
They're not they're bending but not breaking. They're doing what
they need to do. So if you look at their schedule,
they have one slip up so far and a really
hard schedule left. But they're handling what they need to
do and handling business. And the SEC is what it is.
We know that at the end of the day it's
gonna be a two losses in the SEC gets you in.
You know, Ole Miss takes an l the day to
(10:02):
kind of knock them off a little bit. But at
the end of the day, I think their quarterback played
really well for three and a half, almost four full quarters.
They have a really good squad. Georgia has a really
good squad, Emma has a really good squad, and m
is a good team. I don't think Tennessee is a
bad team. So I think you look at the SEC
and you look at top to bottom, I would say,
(10:24):
really impressive lineup. I think we're going to get six
seven teams in this college football playoff again.
Speaker 5 (10:29):
Yeah, you know, you know what else I think?
Speaker 6 (10:32):
I just I just want to add when we look
at look at the landscape of college football. Now, most
of the times there was always a definite quarterback. We
talked about talked about earlier in the show, the Heisman race.
You know, obviously they had they had arch Manning, who
they claim to have already appointed as the Heisman winner.
And we see how that's going going to date, and
the race is so is so is so close because
(10:55):
no one else has stepped up to the forefront. No
one else is step Yeah, you have you have, you
have players that are playing good. Johnny, you know I'm
about playing great. You know, like when you were playing,
you got to tune in to watch every time when
Cam was playing, You're Tim Tebow's. We haven't had anyone
like that. That's exciting. When you look at an Alabama team. Uh,
look at the Alabama team that had all these different strengths.
(11:19):
So when you missing those strengths most of the time,
what's going to make up for the lack of what
you have in other areas you make up for at
your quarterback position. Now he's playing okay, he's playing okay,
but he's not you know, that elite talent that you
look for.
Speaker 5 (11:34):
That makes Alabama who they once were when they lack
another area.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Well, we're gonna have to in order to think any window.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
I think you can make any throw. I think I think.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Right now he got nice on.
Speaker 4 (11:44):
I think, to be honest, I was thinking this in
the car on the way here when I was watching
the game, that he's the best quarterback we've seen in
Alabama since two in Jalen.
Speaker 3 (11:56):
I like the way he's playing better than Mac Jones dead, Yes.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
You like you're better than Bryce.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
No, No, you're right, You're right.
Speaker 4 (12:06):
But right now for what they need and what he's doing,
I mean in person versus Dandy every time they needed
to play, this guy's putting.
Speaker 3 (12:13):
The ball on the money and where they need to be.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
You know, like he definitely might have arm than than
than Bryce.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
I think the thing is is that when we go
back to thinking he'sman Trophy winners, we always think of
that signature moment, Johnny. We remember that moment with you
against Alabama. Joe Burrow, you go back and look at it.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
What was it.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
It was tennis, it was Texas. He went crazy and
it said, oh man, that's just, that's just. And then
he goes down to Tuscaloosa and he does that and
they said, Okay, he the real deal. You look at cam.
It was a Saturday night against South Carolina. He goes
berserk and then it was a no brainer. They're down
what twenty four to nothing, twenty one nothing against Alabama
(12:50):
in Alabama and iron bow and he brings them all
the way back. It was a no brain.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
It was. It was a no doubter from that point on.
So you're just.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
Looking for one of these guys at a at a
big spot, nationally televised game to go haywire.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
Now, Gunner Stockton played really well today. Uh you know, it.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
Seemed like, especially the first half, every time Ole Miss
touched the ball, they scored a touchdown. And then in
the fourth quarter of Georgia's like Gunner Stockton was matching them,
and then all of a sudden, Georgia defense came up
with a couple of stops.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
As a matter of fact, let's go ahead and talk.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
Let's get to that game, you know, talking a rod it,
let's get to Uh what are we gonna go to?
Speaker 2 (13:30):
No game and go tonight?
Speaker 3 (13:32):
Oh no Georgia.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
Okay, let me that seems to be the game everybody.
I'm scar.
Speaker 3 (13:45):
Ojoe. What was your favorite game of the day to day.
Speaker 6 (13:51):
When I was able to attend and actually sitting in
the student section all game? Oh you're the Kentucky Texas
man man. Listen a a Johnny man they had. They
tried to put me in the suite and I'm sitting
in the suite and I'm like, I can't do this,
I can't do it.
Speaker 5 (14:07):
Just too quiet.
Speaker 6 (14:08):
So I asked, I asked, ad, you know, do you
mind if I sit down in the student section?
Speaker 5 (14:12):
I sat in.
Speaker 6 (14:13):
I sat down in the student section all the way
to the fourth quarter. Whit had a good time.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
Gogia bulldof the number nine Georgia Bulldogs at home, scored
forty three points in a shootout and beat the number
five Old Miss Rebels forty three thirty five. Gunnar Stockton
was twenty six to thirty one, two eighty nine, four
touchdowns and another touchdown on the ground. Georgia ran the
ball forty nine times two hundred and twenty one yards.
Trinidad Chamblays wasn't bad in the first half. When they
(14:41):
needed him to step up big, he didn't come up big.
Nineteen to thirty six, two sixty three, one touchdown, twenty
four rush a temps eighty eight yards. They had another
four touchdowns on the ground. But with Georgia big fourth
quarter scored seventeen points. Old Miss didn't score anything because
they had a nine point lead going into the and
then the next thing you know, the teams Georgia scores
(15:02):
forty three, scores seventeen and the fourth to take the
ball game.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Over watch it.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
I don't know how much of this game you were
able to see, Johnny, but it seemed like, Okay, whoever
gets the ball last, that's who's gonna win this ball game.
And then all of a sudden, Oh Miss couldn't do anything.
They couldn't do anything.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
Now look you look at their you look at their rushing.
They rushed it twenty four times for eighty eight yards.
You gotta have some kind of ground game, and Georgia
is very good up front. They're very stout, they're very solid.
I think you look at the first half of the game.
Their quarterback led them through that whole first half for
them to be absolutely the first half lead. Every every
third down under route was perfect in front. He's putting
(15:45):
a lot of zip on the ball. He's a really
good player. I think Lane Kiffin has a really good squad.
Look when you look back at this game, yeah, Georgia
wins by eight, but I feel like the game was
a lot closer than what the score kind of kind
of says. I think this is an Ole Miss team
that can be competitive versus anybody. I think this is
a Georgia team. If Gunnar Stockson is gonna throw four
touchdowns for two hundred and seventy five plus yards, they're
(16:08):
gonna be able to play with anybody as well. So
once again, another great SEC game. Old Mess falls a
little short. But this is one of those games you
look at their schedule and you're like, you know what,
we can drop one. We have that luxury because the
way we played for the six weeks prior.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
Georgia dominated time of possession thirty almost thirty eight minutes
to twenty two minutes. Both teams really good on third down.
One was five and nine, the other was six of eleven.
Georgia had five hundred and ten total yards. Old Miss
had three fifty.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
No turnovers and only one sack. And the whole game, the.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Whole yeah, really four penalties for Old Miss for forty yards,
three penalties of thirty seven yards for Georgia. So it
was really a clean game. It wasn't a you know,
laundry on the field all over the place. There weren't
a whole lot of turnovers. But for the most for
the first three quarters, the defense could dig their heels
in and get a stop. And then when Georgia really
(17:04):
needed to bold their backs ojo, they did that and
an Old Miss really didn't have an answer.
Speaker 5 (17:10):
Yeah, that's that's what I'm gonna say.
Speaker 6 (17:11):
When it matters most, who's going to make the play
when it actually matters most. If the turnovers aren't going
to make the difference in the game, when a team
that makes a few of mistakes when it comes to
executing the offense or the defense, when you got to
have it, and Georgie was able to do that and
pull it out. Old Miss played extremely well today. They
played extremely well. Hell, Georgia played played well. It was
a back and forth game and I'm thinking to myself. Well,
(17:36):
in order for either of these teams will win, they're
gonna come down to two things. Somebody had to execute
in the time where it matters most. Or turnovers is
gonna be the the side of the game. And that's
exactly exactly how I went.
Speaker 1 (17:49):
Yeah, you look at I think the thing is that
when I look at an offensive defense, it doesn't matter
how good or whatever your stats say you are. We
average five hundred yards of offense. Well, we have the number
one score and defense. We're number one on third downs? Okay,
I measure offense and defense. Can you be good when
you have to be good? What good you? What good
is that you're number one on third down? If you
(18:11):
can't get off the field when you absolutely have to
in a meaningful in a game like this, doubt? What
good is scoring thirty five forty points a game and
all of a sudden you need to score, Your offense
needs to score, and you can't get it to make
it twenty four. So don't give me all this number.
I throw all that stuff out the window. Can you
get done what you need to get done when you
absolutely have to have it? Prime example of Joe the
(18:34):
other night, when you guys needed to make a play
all that. Yeh, Joe Flack throwing for this many yards
and Chase got this many yards. Okay, now you need
to go down and get in field goal range. Can
you do it now? Now it matters. All the other
stuff was great, Now it mattered. And Georgia this is
the second time they've done this. Remember Alburn, we talked
about them against Auburn, Johnny and Ojo is that albur
(18:57):
was dominating the ball game. The difference Alwyn's going in
the score. Georgia punches it out, goes ninety nine yards,
gets a field goal right before, right before in a mission,
and then they come out and take the game over
if they don't look back. Georgia down nine start the
fourth quarter, and now they score seventeen straight and they
(19:19):
don't look back. Am I surprised that how the teams
are moving the ball against Georgia, because the one thing
we know about Georgia Kirby keep defensive guys normally.
Speaker 2 (19:28):
Linebackers and court and linebackers and d line.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
I was surprised at which the ease in which ole
Miss was moving the ball, at least through the first
three quarters.
Speaker 4 (19:40):
I think they have a good offense. I think Lane
is really prepared for the defenses in the scheme. Look,
these guys have gone against each other for years. Kirby's
gonna run his defense, He's gonna coach his way. Lane's
gonna coach his way, and that's the way it's gonna be.
These are guys who are very familiar with each other.
They're definitely trolling each other through throughout the game, throughout
the like they have a good relationship, but it's competitive
(20:02):
at the end of the day. So look, you see
it so much. They've gone up against each other so
much that you're gonna have so much familiarity with everything
that this is real high level college football on the
scheme side, both offensively and defensively for both squads.
Speaker 3 (20:18):
So I'm surprised that it was as high scoring as
it was. But you know, both of these teams can
go anything else.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
You want to add to that on Joe.
Speaker 5 (20:30):
No, no, no, that's pretty good. That's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Yeah, all right, we're gonna take Johnny. We're gonna get
to your squad. Now, let's go Texas. A and M
goes on the road. Scores forty five and they needed
all forty five because every bit of it. Those razorback
gave them everything they wanted down in Fayetteville, and they
get they went a squeaker forty five forty two.
Speaker 4 (20:54):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Johnny's guy Marcel Reid was twenty three of thirty two
two eighty three touchdowns. He also had another touchdown on
the ground, so he had four total touchdowns. Arkansas passing
green it was nineteen to thirty two, two fifty six
three touchdowns. They ran the ball thirty two times for
two sixty eight five hundred. You guys had read it right,
(21:17):
about five hundred yards. Arkansas actually outgained you, guys, but
you guys found a way to get a victory. What
do you like about what you're seeing from your team, Johnny,
I mean, coud. Look, sometimes you might need a defense
to make a stand and then sometimes offensively you need offense.
You need to go forty plus points, and it was
clearly one of those games. Your offense really needed to
(21:38):
be flawless tonight and get forty get forty five, clean game,
no turnover, no i nts, no fumbles, a clean game,
and you guys needed it and to get a win
against the underranked Arkansas on the road.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
I thought this game was gonna be a game when
I looked at the forecasts earlier in the week. It
was wet, it was gonna rain. I thought it was
gonna be low scoring. We were gonna rely on our defense.
No no, no, no no. They score eighty seven points
in this game, and they need every single one of them.
The thing that you have to like the most is, look,
week after week, we're relying on different areas of the
(22:13):
football team to win the game. A couple weeks ago,
we needed every bit of the defense to come in
and hold some ground against Florida, against Auburn, those are good,
good wins for us.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
And then you go into an Arkansas game.
Speaker 4 (22:26):
Look, for the last thirteen fourteen years, this game between
Arkansas normally happens in Dallas, and it's been wacky every
single year.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
We found a way to pull it out. I saw
a clip of Kenney.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
Hill throwing a cover two whole shot to Reynolds and
they score late in the game to tie it up
and we go on to win that.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
I'm on the sideline.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
This is ten years ago now, and the whole series
with Arkansas has been this way.
Speaker 3 (22:51):
They played us tough.
Speaker 4 (22:52):
I think from twenty thirteen on even my second year there,
they played us really, really tough. This is just one
of those matchups where you're gonna get a grinded out
style of game. The thing I like the most, no turnovers,
no sacks. Marcel Reid's not on the ground. He's running
just enough at thirty five or forty yards or whatever
he had in a touchdown to be super super effective
(23:13):
with his legs picking up a first down here when
he needs to go and get it, and he's throwing
the ball really well. Look, two hundred and eighty yards
and three touchdowns. Put some respect on his name for real.
I mean, this guy's leading a very good ball club
with a defense that looked a little banged up at
times tonight and had some guys down and coming in
and coming out. But at the end of the day, look,
(23:35):
Elko has these guys rolling, He's got them juiced. We
still have a hard schedule, we still got a game
against Missouri, we still got LSU, we still got Texas.
But for now, if they continue this week by week approach,
how can you not love the Aggies.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
I mean, we're ranking four in the country.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
We go, we're gonna get to LSU and just a
second that will be tough.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
But you look at here and Johnny, you guys had
twenty nine first down you were five for living on
third down, but you were perfect three for three on
third downs. Four hundred and ninety seven total yards possessed
the football a little less than thirty four minutes. As
you said, no turnovers. The ball wasn't on the ground,
neither was your quarterback.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Running back or missing Johns. We're missing Levon Moss. That's
a huge piece for us. So to have guys to
have Owens come in at in sixty nine.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Reid has fifty five. EJ. Smith has fifty two. Like
for us, those.
Speaker 4 (24:26):
Guys are averaging five yards of carry, nine point two
yards of carry and seven point four yards of carry
and conception on gets one carry for sixteen yards.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
Averaging sixteen to carry.
Speaker 4 (24:36):
Colin Klein has some stuff up at sleeve right now,
and I think he's dialing up really good game plans
every week.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
You guys will probably climb the number two to Miami.
The Canes. They lost Beck had a horrible game through
four interceptions last night. The question I have for you, Johnny,
is this the Aggies year.
Speaker 4 (25:00):
We're in the best position we've been in in decades.
We're in the best position we could possibly be in.
Our schedule is favorable, our team is playing well. Our
coach is embodying everything that Texas A and M is
about once again, and every Aggie will tell you read
any comment on any of our posts or anything in
Texas A and M. Everybody is like, just keep playing ball.
(25:26):
It's just we don't need to be crowned national champions
right now in October. We need to get into the
College Football Playoff playing good football and hopefully get a
favorable matchup.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
That's all the Aggies can hope for. So is this
our year?
Speaker 4 (25:42):
Yes, this is our year in the sense that we
need to get into the playoff. We have a schedule
that the outlook of it looks like worst case scenario,
we drop a couple. But at the end of the day,
the way they're playing, I would put us on the
field against anybody right now and say.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
We have a good shot to be victorious day.
Speaker 6 (26:02):
And you you want to get hot too, You want
that time, You want that time in them and when
you get into a groop offensively and defensively, you want
to hit it at the right time. You don't want
to peak too soon, you know, you don't want to
peak too soon. Peaked right before, maybe a week or
two before the college playoffs, and then you get going.
Speaker 5 (26:19):
That's that's when it's that's when who's.
Speaker 3 (26:21):
Playing the best ball at the end of December, middle
of December.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, you don't want to peak too soon.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Look, I try to watch a different team obviously the
games that we're going to talk about, but right now,
if you, if you, if you force me, I think
Ohio State is the best team in football now. I
don't know if they play top notch competition, but the
way they defense can dominate and those those playmakers they
got on the outside and they can run the football.
(26:49):
And that quarterback I don't know where they got it from,
but he's playing his ass off.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
So the neutral because is.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
It still the same, well, you know, the first game
is at the home is a home is a home game,
and the college football playoff guy, Johnny, you know, is
it the same?
Speaker 4 (27:05):
I'm pretty sure that you still get a home game
for the for the top, for the top city get
a home game.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
So it's it's gonna be tough. Good luck going in
going into the horseshoe. Uh uh and and and beating beating, Yeah, because.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
They got to playwalk for them. They ain't gonna walk
through this playoffs.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
They're not just gonna walk down everybody and hock them
down and walk through this and be like, what's up,
We're champions again.
Speaker 3 (27:27):
That that ain't gonna happen.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Well, we're gonna look the game that they they want,
they look obviously they want to be national championship, but
they want some revenge. Joe Michigan, Michigan be kicking their
ass for the last two or three years. Uh, and
it didn't make a difference. Coach Uh, Jim Harbaugh. He
leaves and now the other guy comes in and he's
still kicking the ass. And he beat him last year
in Ohio State. So you know that's how he got
(27:52):
the contract. He got that contract. Hey, may you beat
Ohio State. Yeah, let me go and get that. But
the game, the guy that you're entering. The Vanderbilt Commodores,
the number seventeen, Vanderbilt Commodores thirty one, the number ten
LSU Tigers twenty four pave of fourteen to twenty two
(28:14):
one point sixty one touchdowns no interceptions. Quarterback the ball
northern quarterback was on the ground. He had another seventeen
carries for eighty six yards and another two touchdowns, so
he had three total touchdowns. They ran the ball forty
five times for two hundred and thirty nine yards. Man,
you know Brian Kelly, now, you know he known the
(28:36):
jump ship. You know Penn State job opened it because
Cincinnati to know the Dame Notre Dame to LSU.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
It's a lot easier route up there in that conference,
that's for sure. And he's gonna have a lot less
of a hot seat up there. It'd be nice and comfy,
cushy new contracts. Look, Bandy can play. They went in
there at home play well.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
He scrambled out of a lot of plays. They had
a lot of explosive plays in this game. LSU did,
and Vandy answered back every single time. Pavia, he can
just scramble for a touchdown late in the fourth or whatever.
It was really good drive by them. I think Bandy
just answered the call. This is not the Vandy of old.
They are playing with a lot of swagger. They played
(29:24):
two and a half really good quarters versus Bbama and
then kind of let it down and didn't play the
way they needed to. But the end of the day,
Vandy's a good football team. Diego Pavia is an experienced
veteran of a quarterback, a guy who spent a lot
of time there. He plays with a lot of swagger,
a lot of heart, and the guys on the team
love him. You look at the sideline when he comes
(29:44):
off when they score a touchdown. That's great team camaraderie.
He's a great kid. He's a great friend of mine,
and I'm happy for him. If you look at the
LSU side of things, we're back to banging our head
against the wall because this is a tough one to swallow.
You see it on the sideline. Nes Meyer was hurt
after this one, and you know, for me, I've had
(30:05):
a lot of people reach out to me about you know,
why are you supporting Diego Pavia so hard? When you
got a guy and Marcel read at a and m
is doing amazing things.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
You want me to tell you why?
Speaker 4 (30:17):
Because I fuck with every quarterback that's going out and
living their dream and playing on Saturdays, every single one
of them.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Carson Beck, You're on.
Speaker 4 (30:26):
My shit list a little bit right now after what
you did this week, But I still love you. I'm
still going to see you in the club to live
on Sunday, I'm sure. Nevertheless, I want to be a
guy who comes in and helps hype up these dudes,
give them good advice, learn from my downfalls, from my
pit polls. So whether it's Marcel, whether it's Diego, whether
(30:48):
it's Ty Simpson, whoever it is, I'm reaching out to
all these guys. I'm sending a lot of love and
a lot of advice in whatever capacity they want it from.
For me and any quarterback that's out there and college
football living their dream, walking into a Saturday and putting
the university on their back to go try and win
a game, there's nothing belove for me.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
Vanderbelta sixty one for the first time in seventy five years,
and so in seven decades, seven and a half decades,
they're six and one. Pavia has a passing in a
rustling touchdown in twenty five straight games. That is the
second longest streak since behind FSU Tommy Costellano's twenty seven games.
(31:31):
W Look, this is not the Vanderbilt that I grew
up on, Ojo, you grew up on where they was
everybody's homecoming. They had their coming out party last year
when they did what they did Tobama, and everybody thought
that was a that was a one time thing. They
backed it up this year. They played Alabama tough. As
Johnny mentioned, Now they get a win over number ten
(31:53):
team in the country. So now they start to believe
because they got this quarterback. When you got a quarterback,
you got a chance. I don't give it down what
conference you're play in, and I don't care who you play.
If you got a guy that's gonna touch the ball
in college somewhere between sixty five and.
Speaker 2 (32:10):
Eighty times a game, if he's legit, you got a chance.
Speaker 6 (32:15):
And that is That's exactly what they got. That's why
Vanderbilt looks the way they looking now. This is why
they've been There's why they're six and one after being
after never having a record like this at seventy five years.
You know how, I, God damn I got to do this,
not being able to be to be good, and obviously
it's obviously coaching, but also having the players, having the
(32:38):
players on both sides of the ball, including special teams
as well.
Speaker 5 (32:41):
That gets left out.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
But when you have a quarterback in place, like you said,
that can handle what he needs to do as much
as he touches the ball.
Speaker 5 (32:50):
This is how you look.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
Being the dominated time of possession almost twelve twelve and
a half minutes longer than actually thirteen minutes longer than
LSU had the ball. There was six or thirteen on
third down. There was two or three on fourth down.
Uh yeah, if you.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
Were Brian Kelly, if you were Brian Kelly. Right, we
know how he is.
Speaker 4 (33:20):
We've seen his press conferences, We've seen how he is.
He's got a track record throughout the years.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
But if you were sitting there and you were in
his shoes, what do you do?
Speaker 2 (33:29):
I would have never left. I would have We don't.
I don't know if I know.
Speaker 4 (33:34):
To dame, no, sir, but now you do, and you're
in the booths, and now you got a bunch of
fired occasions on your ass every week, and you ain't
got If.
Speaker 2 (33:46):
You can't win an LSU, you're not winning the Penn State.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
I agree with your superior athletes, say LSU D Now
I understand it's it's a superior I think I think
the SEC is the toughest conference in football.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Now you can debate Dad and go back and forth.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
I mean team for team, but I think when you
go back and look at it, more players come out
of the SEC go to the NFL than any other conference.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
That's that's happened. I don't I don't think.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
I don't think he can recruit any better at Penn
State than what he's recruiting at LSU.
Speaker 6 (34:17):
Agreed, But can I say something real quick on and
you know, you know one thing. It doesn't even come
down to recruiting anymore. It doesn't come down to recruiting anymore.
I don't care how I don't care how many houses
and how many coulcteres you sit on and talk to
people's family. It all comes down to the check that
you're writing, the check that you're writing for these individual
players that you want to come in and change the
(34:39):
dijectory of your team and want a chance to compete
acc SEC.
Speaker 5 (34:44):
It doesn't matter how much are you willing to pay,
because in order.
Speaker 6 (34:47):
To win now, which is why we said that the
playing field has even from team to team and there's
no domination by one team. A week to week we
watch these games on Saturday, there's a good chance that
either team can win. It's a good chance and we've
and we've seen that time and time again this year
it always happened. Teams are team that normally dominated back
(35:08):
in the days aren't dominating like they want like they
once did. Why Because the money money talks is different.
Players are going all over Where Is.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
There more money at Penn State or LSU?
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Wooh, that's interesting.
Speaker 5 (35:22):
That's a good that's a good one.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
Because I think it's about the same.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
I do, yeah, I think.
Speaker 4 (35:27):
I say it's probably pretty close. I say you're gonna
have a twenty million dollars roster at both places. Probably
that's just a number. You got some schools that are
going to spend twenty five, twenty six, twenty seven.
Speaker 3 (35:37):
That's a seven million dollar difference. You're definitely gonna have
some backups in a better spot and some starting players
in different positions that are making a little bit more.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
But for the top, you know, ten to fifteen programs,
you're at a twenty plus million dollar roster.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
I think it's probably pretty close.
Speaker 4 (35:54):
I think I think the SEC and LSU and what
they've done has been historically better, So you're gonna have
a little pedigree there and just where you're recruiting the
athletes from and in the South is going to be
better at LSU. So he's gonna have to grind it out,
try to find another quarterback after Ana Smyer that can
get the program rolling and you just stick it out.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Yeah, he's known the jump ship. I don't know, uh, o, Joe.
If the same amount of money, uh you know, you
had Jane Daniels and you didn't win a national championship
or you didn't even come close.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
It's it's always he's always.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Losing the game, Johnny that You're like, Okay, they're gonna
win this one and somebody nips it, somebody get somebody
gets him. And then you know he would be a
hard coach to play for because you know he blame
He blamed the players and this and that.
Speaker 2 (36:46):
I'm like, bro, what about you? What about you?
Speaker 3 (36:49):
You?
Speaker 2 (36:49):
You? You? You?
Speaker 5 (36:51):
You?
Speaker 2 (36:51):
He was talking about us, and this is not what
we coach. It is. It is.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
The direct Inspire Bank account. Every week he's happy, no
matter what.
Speaker 4 (37:03):
He he's sending the blame everywhere else.
Speaker 1 (37:08):
Twenty twenty five nil rankings, LSU twenty million, Penn State
thirteen million.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
Okay, there you go. Seven million more.
Speaker 5 (37:16):
That's huge, hey, matter of fact, on their ranking, number.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
One, Ohio State is or Texas A and m.
Speaker 3 (37:23):
Okay, it's gonna be close. Worried about twenty six twenty Probably.
Speaker 2 (37:28):
Texas is number one with twenty two.
Speaker 3 (37:30):
They had a good game today against Kentucky.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Ohio stat is two at twenty twenty one or twenty
point five. Wow, so think about it. The top three
are in the SEC. No, Ohio excuse me, LSU LSU
is three, Texas is won. You got Ohio State's Matt
(37:55):
dab in the middle. Alabama up there somewhere.
Speaker 3 (37:58):
What's the top five? Does it say?
Speaker 5 (38:00):
What did you say?
Speaker 3 (38:03):
Alabama three?
Speaker 1 (38:06):
No, l s U is three, Texas, Ohio State l
s U, Georgia A and.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Em A right four out of five SEC?
Speaker 2 (38:19):
Alabama is seven? Who's six?
Speaker 3 (38:23):
Oregon?
Speaker 1 (38:29):
But could we feel a switch? Michigan is six? Could
we see a flip? James Frankly goes to l s U.
Brian Kelly goes to Benn's state.
Speaker 4 (38:44):
I think I think Penn State needs to go after
Matt rule with everything that they have because Nebraska ain't
going nowhere.
Speaker 3 (38:52):
They can't beat Minnesota. We're just we're out in the
woods and the mud, with our tires spinning and just
burning the engine. We ain't going nowhere with that program.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
I think the thing is, But Harry, let me ask
you this, Johnny, because I think the thing a lot
of times is that I remember what Nebraska used to be.
Speaker 3 (39:12):
Of course, this is like talking about how Colorado and
what they used to be.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
I remember what Penn State used to be.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
The question is, and maybe we need to re shape
our vision or what we think they can be.
Speaker 2 (39:27):
Can Penn State ever be what they once were?
Speaker 4 (39:31):
Yes, in my opinion, yes, their conference is too easy.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
You get two big games a year. Go win those
big games. If you lose one, you're in the playoff.
Speaker 4 (39:44):
Every year, your program's hyped up enough, you're gonna be
ranked in the top twenty five. You go eleven, twelve
and one, you're in the playoff. All you gotta do
is play ball at the right time. So yes, because
your conference is so easy.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Well, Penn State might have been looking at Signetti, but
he's like nah Indiana, saying, Nah, y'all ain't gonna get him.
Speaker 2 (40:05):
Hey, we're gonna drop the bag on him. Eleven point six.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
We make you the third highest paid he deserves it
behind Kirby and or Ryan Day. Yeah, absolutely to win. Look,
I mean he took us. He took a team that's
a basketball school. Indiana's a basketball school. Everybody, when you
think of down, you think of coach to Night, and
you think of the Hoosiers and being undefeated in seventy six,
(40:29):
the last the last college basketball team to go undefeated
and win the national championship. That's what you think about this.
He's making you real valuate how we look at the Hoosiers.
So now they're just not known for that bicycle race
that they have every year where the co ed is
ride their bikes for I don't know what is the
fifty miles seventy five miles or the basketball team. He's
(40:52):
a hell of a coach. He was on coach saving Staff.
He was a wide receiver coach Ojoe. But he wanted
to be a head coach. He left go to a
Division two school. Take one hundred and twenty five thousand
dollars pay cut. Got a daughter about to go to college,
he says, but I want to be a head coach here.
What Look, you already know if you coach on if
(41:12):
you were on Nick Saban staff who didn't get ahead job,
Lane Kenny Kirby, Smart, Billy Napier, a Crystal Bull, a mel.
Speaker 2 (41:21):
Tucker who didn't get a job.
Speaker 1 (41:23):
Dan Landy was a grand assistant head coach, Signati head
coach who didn't get a head job.
Speaker 6 (41:31):
If you're on a staff and I got a question
speaking of head coaching jobs and vacancies that are open state, Yes,
what the chances that Nick Saban comes back and takes
that and takes that.
Speaker 2 (41:43):
Well, they were talking about it this morning.
Speaker 1 (41:44):
Zero Miss Terry say he having too much fun and
she don't want to take no championship from their babies,
which is Lane Kirby. I don't know how much longer,
Billy Napier, you're gonna have that job in Florida if
you don't went out from here. And that's not a
very good chance because I think they still got Georgia
on their on their schedule. But I don't I don't
think Coach Sab But I don't think Coach Saban is
(42:05):
coming back because the issue that that forced him out
still exists.
Speaker 4 (42:09):
I think you're gonna have to get some of these
younger coaches that are coming up in the ranks. The
coach at us F, the coach at uh Tulane, Texas
State has a really good coach.
Speaker 3 (42:20):
It's up and coming on offense.
Speaker 4 (42:23):
I think you're gonna have to find these young guys
who are offensive minded, who put a good program together
on a on a smaller, smaller scale, and you're gonna
have to give him the opportunity and roll with some youth.
Speaker 3 (42:35):
And that's it.
Speaker 1 (42:36):
Yeah, when you when you look, look what if does
if he comes out of retirement, O joe and win
the championship, that doesn't change you. Everybody believes he's the
greatest college coach they will live. He got one of them.
Yet he got six at Alabama and he lost. He
lost the Clemson, he lost to Georgia. So he's the greatest.
(42:58):
It's either him or or Coach Bryant is the greatest
college coaches they ever lived.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
That both of Alabama. So that's what we do know.
Speaker 1 (43:05):
The two greatest college coaches ever to ever coach is
Coach Bryant a coach Saban. Many believe Coach Bryant considering
you know a lot of those championships that he won
was before integration. Coach Bryant did so we get that,
But I don't think coach Saban, I don't think anything.
He comes out and whin he wins number eight, Do
you think more of him because he won eight intill
(43:26):
the seventh. No, and it's just more headache. He's like,
you know what, he got a great job. He does
an unbelievable job on college game day. He's great at it.
He can, he knows it. He knows how to talk
and on both sides he can talk to the players,
and like how he was with the players.
Speaker 2 (43:42):
It's like when the player when they.
Speaker 1 (43:43):
Were good, I was harder on my coaches and the
team when they were good. I was easier on them
when we lost. So I don't see coach Saban coming out.
But hey, never say never because that encompasses never in always,
And I don't believe in saying that.
Speaker 2 (44:00):
Actually, how much money Paistate.
Speaker 3 (44:02):
Got a lot?
Speaker 2 (44:06):
You got fifteen meal of a year.
Speaker 3 (44:08):
But I mean probably it ain't gonna happen.
Speaker 4 (44:12):
It really is, and they need to go find somebody
that has wanted that Penn State jobs. It's a dream
job for them that really cares and can buy into
what it is because it is a good job at
the end of the day, Like we said and spoke
about a couple of weeks ago, do we think James
Franklin should have been let go?
Speaker 3 (44:28):
Probably not.
Speaker 4 (44:29):
But at the end of the day, it's a good opening,
a good job. You're going to see some good openings
of good jobs around the country and we're gonna see
who they fill them with.
Speaker 1 (44:39):
Ash was saying that on college game Day that Miss
Terry said, we haven't heard a number yet. It is,
and I think gimm sixty is a is coach Saban's agent. Also, Look,
I think he's very content with where he is right
now and what he's doing right now.
Speaker 2 (44:57):
He makes good money doing what he does.
Speaker 1 (44:59):
He still has an office at Alabama, they still pay him,
and I don't think he wants to deal with a
headache at this agent time.
Speaker 3 (45:08):
I agreed, right, So what you think about.
Speaker 2 (45:11):
You, huh, I don't want it.
Speaker 1 (45:12):
They ain't got a number, They ain't got a number
big enough because you already you already know how I am.
I ain't got no patience, and so it's understood that's
why I've never no coach. I've never been wanted to
be a coach because I know my patience I already
know how am I would get mad at the guys.
Bro We don't practice this all week. We talked about
(45:33):
the first fifteen Saturday morning, we went over the next
fifteen to that Saturday night, and then you come and
if it up Sunday op the gate.
Speaker 2 (45:43):
No, I couldn't do that, man, I couldn't.
Speaker 5 (45:46):
I mean I could just I could see the program
turning around under you.
Speaker 3 (45:50):
What about this? What about Dion.
Speaker 2 (45:54):
At Penn State?
Speaker 3 (45:57):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (46:01):
I don't me personally, I don't know how much time going,
how much longer time got to coach. I don't know
if his health is going to allow him to have
one of those long careers, right, you know what I'm saying.
You know, he got in at You know, most coaches
start start coaching college in their thirties. He got in
really late. I mean, you got to think about it.
(46:23):
He was in his fifties when he got in. I mean,
think about Bobby Bolden, coach coach Biden when he retired
with forty years of coaching, he was only in his seventies.
So I just don't know if his health, you know,
dealing what he's had to deal with with the blood clots.
You know standing doesn't help out. The burning of the
(46:43):
midnight oil doesn't help. You know, he had the batter surgery.
That can't help. I just don't know if his his
his help is going to allow him to have.
Speaker 2 (46:54):
A long, fruitful, fruitful, prosperous career.
Speaker 3 (46:58):
I know I would definitely, I would definitely called Jimbo Fishers.
Speaker 1 (47:03):
Hey, hey, jim will say he already packaged you'all money.
So yeah, I go, I double dip. He's a y'all
gave it. Y'all gave me, y'all gave me eighty four.
Hey what y'all gave me?
Speaker 4 (47:13):
Amy S have him buyout money too, you know what.
To be honest, Penn State may be able to get
I mean, Jimbo.
Speaker 1 (47:18):
Get him, get it for the five get it for
a five million dollar deal, sign him up for ten
of them.
Speaker 2 (47:23):
Yeah, you're right, you're right.
Speaker 4 (47:28):
Another great day in college football all the way around,
though a lot of upsets this week. A lot of
people went down. Arizona State played a really good game
against number seven Texas Tech today.
Speaker 3 (47:39):
You see the Miami Kines they lose, go down.
Speaker 4 (47:42):
All the way through there was there was a lot
of upsets, a lot of good ball from from underdogs
this week. So it's a hell of a week for
college football. I think everybody who was watching should have
enjoyed thoroughly this week.
Speaker 1 (47:55):
Yeah, but I don't know if Piste go let Prime
have all them, all them jerseys and all them com.
Speaker 2 (48:00):
The nations, you know, piss dawn. They got two colors.
Speaker 1 (48:04):
They got black tops with white pants, and they got
white tops with white pants.
Speaker 5 (48:08):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (48:09):
That's it, that's all you get.
Speaker 1 (48:13):
The number twenty one Texas Longhorn go down to Lexington
and hold on and win sixteen to thirteen over UK
University of Kentucky. Kentucky got stopped second and goal, thirty goal,
fourth and goal. Texas goes down, kicks the field goal,
and they went at sixteen thirteen. Arch Manning did not
have the best day, but they won the ball game.
Speaker 2 (48:36):
He was twelve or twenty.
Speaker 1 (48:37):
Seven, one hundred and thirty two yards, no touchdowns, no interceptions.
Quin Trevion Wisner ran the long touchdown. How they won
this game, I don't know, Joe. They had one hundred
and thirty two yards passing and forty seven yards rushing,
(48:57):
so they had less than one hundred and eighty yard
yards the opposing team had over four hundred yards.
Speaker 2 (49:07):
And they get a victory.
Speaker 1 (49:10):
Johnny, I need you to help me understand how Texas
wasn't this ball game eight first downs, five of sixteen
on third down, one hundred and seventy nine total yards,
twelve of twenty seven. They possessed the ball half the
time that UK had it. U K had twenty six
first downs. They had three hundred and ninety five total yards,
(49:34):
so they outgained about over two hundred possessed the ball
nineteen minutes longer.
Speaker 2 (49:40):
Yeah, somehow lost.
Speaker 4 (49:41):
The quarterback in Texas throws for forty four percent completion
on the day for one hundred and thirty two yards
four point nine yards in attempt. Texas is rushing attack
this year. That is what we like to call a
Bizmoer ball. They can't run out of a wet paper
bag forty seven yards rushing one point seven yards of
(50:06):
carry and this is.
Speaker 3 (50:07):
In four quarters of football, right. I don't know how
they seek out of here with this one.
Speaker 4 (50:11):
But at the end of the day, you gotta give
them their props. Everybody in Austin's throwing their horns up
tonight and saying we snuck out of there with one.
I mean, let's turn it over to the man that
sat in the student section and watch.
Speaker 2 (50:24):
That's what I was about to say.
Speaker 1 (50:25):
Oh Joe, you had a bird's eye view of this
ball game. Yeah, you probably thought, man, the Wildcats go
and get a victory over the number twenty one Risks Longhorns.
So you were there. Uh, we got video on you
were there?
Speaker 6 (50:40):
We do oh lord, haven't mer Yeah? Hey, a you
see you see the rhythm the whole week we was
at the going.
Speaker 1 (50:54):
I'm like, you know what I'm like, I'm like this
day of pleader. I don't know that food.
Speaker 5 (51:05):
Hey listen, listen.
Speaker 6 (51:07):
If I'm gonna if if I'm going to go to
a college game, obviously my daughter's homecoming, I need the experience.
Speaker 5 (51:12):
I told the A D.
Speaker 6 (51:14):
I told Ray Ray Oliver, who is my strength and
conditioning coach, when it was in Cincinnaty.
Speaker 5 (51:18):
If I'm coming, yeah that I know. Yeah, raids in Kentucky.
I said, do not put do not put me in
a suite.
Speaker 2 (51:28):
Do that.
Speaker 6 (51:28):
I want to know what it's like to be at
a at a school of this magnitude and sit with
the students in that section because I know they get turned,
so they put me down there and watching and watching
the game for me. Kentucky as many yards as they
did have had Johnny and on, they couldn't score. They
couldn't put themselves in position to get field goals. If
you don't if you're not going to score, and defense
(51:50):
was playing well enough to where you should have won
this game. This is a game that you should have won.
This is a game that you should have won. You
should have had more opportunities to to do some of
the things that Texas couldn't. It just to me offensively
in the since I'm trying not to say anything like
(52:12):
too bad about missus stutths because they hit the whole
crowd hunk.
Speaker 5 (52:15):
I'm not sure what's going on. It's my first time
beating the game.
Speaker 6 (52:18):
But everybody they chanting fire stoops, fire stoops.
Speaker 5 (52:22):
I'm like, but god, damn, what do they do wrong?
Speaker 6 (52:24):
But then I watch how they play offensively and what
they were doing where at times Johnny couln't even get
pass me infield.
Speaker 1 (52:30):
Hell, don't look like Texas guys, bass millfielder'spt that long tochdown?
Do they remember what you do? What Kentucky was before
Stop's got there. I don't think they remember that, Johnny.
They do realize that's a basketball school.
Speaker 2 (52:43):
It's been a.
Speaker 3 (52:43):
Long time since the hefty Lefty Jared Lorenzo and wrestling
my guy here and also also guy, my guy, Randall Cobb.
Speaker 4 (52:53):
It's been a long, long long time since those Kentucky
Wildcats have been in New Jersey. So listen, sec everybody
wants to be good, but they need to get ready
for hoops season.
Speaker 3 (53:03):
They'll be all right.
Speaker 1 (53:04):
Yeah, I mean, look, you only gonna first of all,
you only gonna get You only gonna.
Speaker 3 (53:10):
Get such some players.
Speaker 1 (53:13):
First of all, it's not like Kentucky is like when
you think a great football players. I mean Sean I
think Seana Exander's from Kentucky. But where did he go?
Speaker 2 (53:22):
Ojoe? Alabama?
Speaker 5 (53:24):
Alabama.
Speaker 2 (53:26):
So if your.
Speaker 1 (53:27):
Best players are leaving or leaving the state, you don't
have much of a chance, especially if you Kentucky. Now
you know you are obviously Florida. They're gonna be spread out.
You got um, you got UF and you got f
s U and then some gonna go to Alabama, some
gonna go to Ohio State. So they're gonna be spread out.
But Kentucky, you've got to keep your best. You can't
(53:48):
afford to have your best go and make somebody else's
program better better, And that's what Kentucky. Like I said,
I think Students has done a great job. Get what
he's got. I mean, I don't know, y'all. Don getting
Nick Saban.
Speaker 4 (54:05):
Listen, we uh we at one point in time through
our coaching search after Jimbo tried to hire Mark Stoops
and uh college station almost burnt to the ground. So
I don't know what it is about him or what
people think about him. I respect him. I played against him.
He was at OU whenever I was there, whenever I
was playing against him. I think he's a good coach.
(54:27):
I think he's doing the most with what he has
a content and that's what you got to give him
credit for it.
Speaker 3 (54:33):
But today, in this setting, in this game, this is
one you got to go reach out and grab and finally.
Speaker 1 (54:39):
Right, I think also people like with Indiana is a
college is a is a basketball school. But look at
what Signetti did, so why can't that be us.
Speaker 4 (54:51):
Signetti came in and said, listen, you know what I do.
I win everywhere I go. Google me, bitch, that's what
he said he did, and he came in. You know what,
I don't care to work Indiana. I don't care that
I'm out here doing this. I'm gonna go find a
way to make it happen. The running game looks good.
Their receivers can play, their quarterback has game. Mendoza's playing
(55:13):
with it real and those Mendoza's g now, I don't
know if he had to run that gauntlet. That's their CC.
That's a that's a whole that's a whole different animal.
Speaker 1 (55:26):
Look, Kentucky's gone to a couple of bowl games, but
I think you know, when you look at it, what
is their realistic expectations? Are they expecting to be in
the college football playoffs? Are they expecting to contend for
a national Well, I mean when you got Georgia, Alabama, LSU, Texas, A,
and m when you got all those on your.
Speaker 2 (55:47):
Scheduled, damn. But that's murderer's role.
Speaker 1 (55:50):
That's why it's so hard for our team, even the Alabama,
the LSU, even the top teams to go undefeated in
that conference. Yeah, you'll get a situation like Alabama has
gone undefeated. You get to twenty nineteen LSU when you
talk about one of the historically great teams in college
football history. But for the most part, you're not going
(56:10):
unscathed in the SEC. It's just not gonna happen. So
I just need to know Kentucky if I, if I,
you know, could talk to their fan base or their alumni,
what is your realistic expectation for UK?
Speaker 3 (56:23):
Is it not eight and four?
Speaker 5 (56:27):
Eight and four is good with the ball?
Speaker 1 (56:29):
Yeah, for sure. I don't think they're gonna get I
don't know. I don't think they're gonna get to eight
and four this year. But I mean, can they get
Bowl eligible? What's what's the.
Speaker 2 (56:37):
UK remaining schedule?
Speaker 5 (56:40):
There? They're two and three goes.
Speaker 1 (56:41):
They're two and four right now, and so they played
what twelve games, so they got six games to go,
So if theoretically they could go eight and four.
Speaker 3 (56:51):
All right, here we go.
Speaker 4 (56:52):
The last fifteen years of Kentucky football. Six and seven
lost in the Gator Bawl, seven and six lost in
the Gator seven and six lost Music City Bowl, ten
and three, twenty twenty one Citrus Ball beat Iowa five
and six, eight and five, ten and three and twenty
eighteen beat Penn State and then you go back seven
(57:15):
and six, seven and six, five and seven, five and seven,
two and ten, two and ten, five and seven, six
and seven, So you got a couple ten and three
sprinkled down, but really your medium point for success seven six.
Speaker 3 (57:29):
Yeah, they looked would be out of this wall for
them in the Bowl win.
Speaker 2 (57:33):
They just lost to Texas.
Speaker 1 (57:35):
They're at home versus Tennessee at Auburn home versus Florida. Uh,
they got Tennessee Tech at home at Vanderbilt at Louisville.
Speaker 2 (57:45):
Today didn't work out well. Tomorrow ain't looking much better.
Speaker 5 (57:51):
Listen, listen.
Speaker 6 (57:52):
Today looked much better than what people thought it would
have been because they were there was the chance UK
had a chance to win this game. They just couldn't
put the ball in position to score. Maybe if you
can't get a touchdown, get three. They could barely get
fifty hunkare.
Speaker 5 (58:10):
And to me.
Speaker 6 (58:11):
It just kept seeing like they kept running the same
play draw, draw draw, I'm like, what.
Speaker 5 (58:17):
What what It's the same thing over and over.
Speaker 2 (58:20):
I'm looking at this No play down here.
Speaker 6 (58:22):
I saw, I saw, I saw a few dig routes,
a few flat routes, but there was there was really
no creativity to the offense. And obviously you are playing
against a very good Texas team, so I kind of
understand you don't want to put your young quarterback in
harm's way.
Speaker 5 (58:37):
That makes your decision making. It is good, you know,
you don't want to put too much on the plate.
Speaker 6 (58:42):
But a game like this, man, you throw everything.
Speaker 1 (58:48):
They got Tennessee Auburn, Florida and on the road against
vand and Louisville. Like I said, better, that's tough.
Speaker 3 (59:03):
Yeah, onto the hardwood, Onto the hardwood.
Speaker 1 (59:10):
Jeremiah Love and the Number thirteen No the name Fighting
Irish beat the Number twenty USC Trojan thirty four to
twenty four in the ninety six meeting between the two rivals.
Love finished with a career high two hundred and twenty
eight rushing yards and a touchdown to lead Notre Dame
attack that racked up three hundred and six rush yards.
(59:30):
Not to name finished with four hundred and forty two
total yards. Juderian Price also added eighty seven yards rushing
on a touchdown and returned the kickoff one hundred yards
for a touchdown.
Speaker 2 (59:45):
A m USC. They just did whatever they wanted to
do to y'all. Here it is see.
Speaker 6 (59:52):
This is one of the few games that wasn't able
to see. I didn't get the chance to see this one. Hey,
how did the receiver do? The receiver from USC, he's
really good?
Speaker 2 (01:00:01):
Uh laying six eleven.
Speaker 3 (01:00:06):
Eighteen point five to catch?
Speaker 2 (01:00:08):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (01:00:09):
The quarterback eighteen two turnovers? Though that was the difference
in the ball game? Well, actually turn the ball over
three times? Might they could have held onto it?
Speaker 2 (01:00:21):
Quarterback.
Speaker 4 (01:00:22):
Notre Dame is doing what they need to do if
they need to go through and run the table, and
they're going and playing.
Speaker 3 (01:00:26):
This is a huge rivalry game. Forever Notre Dame comes through, they.
Speaker 2 (01:00:30):
Can't lose another game, though, Johnny to run the.
Speaker 4 (01:00:32):
Table, don't don't run it. Look a look at their schedule.
Let's let's take a peek at their schedule for the
rest of the way. All right, they got Boston College,
dumb Navy, dumb pit dumb Syracuse. Okay, they'll play him
tough and then Stanford, so get their Syracuse and they
(01:00:58):
do it.
Speaker 6 (01:01:00):
Hey, listen for football. Football on Saturdays has been so funny.
The teams that the teams that you're supposed to be
that there's been a lot of surprises this season. There
have been a lot of surprises.
Speaker 1 (01:01:11):
Know, The Dame is known to give it up to
a team the Northern Illinois, and they are Northern Illinois.
Speaker 2 (01:01:20):
Teams like always trip them up.
Speaker 3 (01:01:26):
Oh I like. I like Notre Dame. Look, they maybe
have one of the best running backs in the country.
Speaker 4 (01:01:31):
I think they do. They have a quarterback who you
go back and look at the A and M game
really solid. You look up through the board. Their defense
is solid. They're a team that can get in the
playoff and cast some havoc. Their coach is really good.
Speaker 1 (01:01:47):
I tell you what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna force
that quarterback to beat me. I am as well. I'm
not gonna let do I'm not gonna let them run
the ball. I'm not gonna let them run the ball. Definitely,
you're not getting th three hundred yards rushing because I
mean you run the ball three hundred for three hundred yards,
that means you you got the ball.
Speaker 2 (01:02:06):
You got to have the ball for an extended period
of time.
Speaker 1 (01:02:10):
Well, yeah, they didn't have it that long, only thirty
two minutes, thirty three minutes, which is not a long
amount of time when you're considering. But see they were
three of eleven on third down, so e third down
is tough because if you you you you know, let's
(01:02:31):
just say, for the sake of argument, you six or
seven for eleven, that means you're gonna be on the
field for an extra two minutes.
Speaker 3 (01:02:38):
Yeah, yeah, but.
Speaker 2 (01:02:43):
I don't know, link you may.
Speaker 3 (01:02:44):
They win the turnover battle.
Speaker 4 (01:02:47):
They have ninety one more yards and penalties though, but
game amount of first downs four hundred and forty two yards. Look,
it's another it's another good win for Notre Dame. They're
just trucking along doing what they need to do. Let's
try and get in the playoff and see if we
can't make some shape.
Speaker 1 (01:03:05):
