Speaker 1 (00:02):
We're back.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
It's the Craigway Show with Hall of Fame broadcaster and
voice of the Texas Longhearts Craig Way.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Good to have you with us again on another Monday,
once again pulled the microphone off of its housing. It
just kind of screws in like that and just pops
out like that. So we'll do the best we can.
It's going forward. Those of you watching on YouTube there, it's.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
Like you're like the Red Carpet interviewing celebrities and stuff. Yeah,
that's that's one way to think about it.
Speaker 3 (00:41):
Let's hear some more from Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian
sark And in the press conference earlier today that you
heard here on sports radio AM thirteen hunderd the Zone
was asked about the twelve teen playoff and really how
it relates to the fact that the loser of this
game won't be entirely out of it. You know, I
(01:03):
think everybody kind of thought with the Alabama game last
year that whoever lost the game would not be out
of the playoff picture, but they take a dent from it.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
That's exactly what happened.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Alabama got a dent from that and then didn't slow
down after that and was able to run the table
to rest the way through and got into the playoffs.
You do have more room now, more margin for error
because of the twelve team playoff, but Sark was asked
for his thoughts on that and has it relates to
this matchup.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Because of the new format. I like this matchup even more.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
Because I think this is why you come to a
Texas or you go to a Michigan as to playing
games like this. Our guys love this opportunity and I'm
sure their players do too, and I think the coaches
do as well. You know that that we get to
go play in a marquee game on the road in
a great environment for college football, and in a couple
of years we get to do it here with them
as well. And the same token. If you win it,
(02:02):
this game is great. If you don't, it isn't going
to kill you. And you know, one thing I touched
on to reference the game against Alabama year ago, that
this game isn't going to define our season, you know,
because if we win the game, that doesn't you know, automatically,
you know, declare us that we're going to be this
great team. And if we don't win the game, that
doesn't mean that well, the season was a failure. There's
(02:23):
a lot of football left to be played. But I
think Saturday we'll do for us is serve as a
bit of a barometer of kind of where we're at
as a football team this fall.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
We're going to get challenged in all.
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Three phases and then okay, what do we need to
work on and where do we need to keep growing
and getting ourselves prepared for the Southeastern Conference and so,
you know, ideally it can serve as a springboard for
the rest of the season, but we'll find out, you know, Saturday,
I guess around three thirty o'clock or four.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
O'clock or so.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
All right, yeah, that would make one difference here. Now.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
He was also asked about some of the guys that
he thought really stood out and along his defensive front Saturday.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Well, you know, I think a couple of guys that
that stood out for me. You know, I think Alfred
and Vernon played well like like they do, you know,
and that was that was a good sign. I think
Jermaine Lelay was a guy that definitely showed us some
things and a young guy that that kind of was
a pleasant surprise was Alex January did some things for
us in there as well. So, but we're going to
(03:23):
need all these guys in this type of a game.
You know, I don't know how many snaps this game
will be. Generally a Michigan team in game averages right
around sixty or so snaps, and so it's got a
little bit more of an NFL feel, And so it's
maximizing those snaps when those guys are on the field
as much as it is rotating just to for depth purposes.
(03:46):
You know, when you're playing a team that you think
might go eighty five ninety snaps, you need that rotation
just to just to stay in shape. In this instance,
is when you're on that field, you got to maximize
that rep. And if it's you get eight reps in
the game, you got to make those eight count and
whatever that looks like. And so that part's probably more
important to us than than anything. Is just making sure
(04:07):
that men we exhaust all that we have for that
one play, knowing that we have the rotation we have.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Also, you know, he was going to be asked about
quinn yours and how Quinn managed everything really really well
and just seemed to take it all in stride and
be very calm and very directed, and Sark was pleased
with the play of his quarterback.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
I thought he played that way Saturday.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
You know, I can remember a couple of years ago,
and I think it was his first career pass that
gets intercepted here in dk R and he could almost
see he was a little shook, and of course he
would be Saturday. You know, the ball gets tipped and
he throws an interception. It was just so calm, he goes,
I was trying to throw it away like it didn't.
(04:50):
He didn't feel rattled like what might happen next? Like
are they going to change me or something. It was
more about this is what I was doing. And it
was like water off his back and it was on
to the net. He played a really good football game Saturday.
I thought he threw the ball to the right people
on time. You know, we dropped, We dropped a couple
of balls. We had, you know, a tough catch by Isam,
(05:11):
and I think he, you know, he could have could
have clearly had you know, a couple incompletions, and so
I just thought the command was there, the timing of
the throws the accuracy of the throws, the RPO game,
the drop back game. So again, the efficiency in the
red area showed up. And I think that's all a
byproduct of his comfort level, because when he's calm and
(05:32):
comfortable but playing with confidence, I think the other guys
feel it.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Yeah, that's a good way to think about it. Now.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Sarks asked for his thoughts on Sharon Moore, the first
year head coach of Michigan. Of course more than bean,
the offensive coordinator there for the Wolverines and had to
take over when when Jim Harball was suspended last year
and did so and then was named the successor when
Harball left for the NFL. But it is his first
full season as a head coach at Michigan, and Sark
(06:00):
was asked about his memories of when he first started
out his head coach, Remember going all the way back
to when he was aged thirty four or something like
that at the University of Washington and and what that
was like for him and what he thought Sharon Moore
may be feeling in a big matchup like this.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
You know, I would say, one man, he got great
he got great experience a year ago, you know, with
the situation that they were in. And to think as
that season was going on at the at the tail
end of that season, every game he was coaching in mattered,
and there were some big games. You know, it wasn't
like he was just you know, there weren't you know,
cupcake games. You know, he had to he had to
(06:36):
go into Penn State and win that game. He had
he had to coach against Ohio State in that game,
and so hes got great exposure and you know, he
worked for a really good coach and coach Harbaugh, and
so you know, I don't I don't think it probably
for him that it feels new to him just.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Because of the experience that he got a year ago.
Speaker 4 (06:55):
Uh Well, I felt like I was drinking out of
a fire hose at that time.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
We were trying to build a pro that was zero
to twelve the year before.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
Uh we were just trying to find a way to
get another first down at that point. So probably a
little different, little different format than you know, when you
take over for a team that they've got such experience,
they've got, you know, a really good developmental program that
that that they have and they're not really having.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
To change schemes and coaches.
Speaker 4 (07:20):
That probably a different transition for him than it was
for me when I went to Washington and it was
a brand new staff and we were really trying to
change a culture at that time.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Now, one of the more humorous moments of the press conference,
sark was asked about the analytics and the use of
analytics in preparing a team for a football game, and
he was also asked about the possibility or the the
(07:52):
usefulness of AI Artificial intelligence.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Wait, might he use AI?
Speaker 3 (07:59):
AI general rated things to help in terms of game
planning and other metrics and analytics used for that. And
Sart was asked, you know, what would you consider using
Have you used AI? Would you consider using AI to
help you out?
Speaker 1 (08:14):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I don't want to.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Get turned in for plagiarism, you know, That's what That's
what I That's what I tell our students. That's what
I tell our players as it pertains to school now.
But you know, we we've got a lot of analytics
that we dive into. And you know, sometimes as a coach,
the analytics are great, and computers are great, and AI
is great because they could spit out information to you.
(08:35):
Sometimes as a coach, I like to go with my
gut too, you know, because I think I see some
things and feel some things a little bit different than
a computer.
Speaker 3 (08:44):
You know.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
I do have a heartbeat. I know sometimes y'all might
not think so. But and so that feel is important too.
So I think there's a there's a balancing act that
has to come out of it. But yes, we do
use analytics to help us with some of that stuff.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Okay, all right, So there and and maybe that means
to help out in terms of the game planning for Michigan.
He Sark was asked, is this one of those games
where you had the team working on Michigan for some
time even though you had the Colorado State game in
front of you, as was said about the Alabama game,
(09:18):
you know, after the Rice game. Is this one of
those examples? And Sark had an interesting response on how
some early preparation began for this game while at the
same time getting ready for a season opener, and what
he and the coaches knew that the players did not.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
You know, our players didn't know it probably until today.
But we were practicing a lot of these plays for
this game in training camp, you know, and so they
didn't know it as much but now they know it
that we're started the preparation for it today. So I
don't necessarily want to say it's been in place for months,
but we had a pretty good idea of the style
in which we wanted to play this game. We've practiced
(09:56):
a lot of these plays in training camp, and now
we kind of get to dust them off this week
and use them in the ball game.
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Yeah, so that would tell you they probably didn't use
a great many of those in the win against Colorado
State didn't need to actually as well. So now they
get ready to play Michigan. This is an historic matchup
when one considers they've only had the one meeting and
that was in that Rose Bowl, a two thousand and
(10:23):
five Rose Bowl. Coming off the two thousand and four season.
They've never played in each other's home stadiums. Michigan will
be here in twenty seven. The original planet was going
to be the other way around. So there's some historical
significance here in getting ready for Michigan and.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
What it means. Sark was asked to be able to
line up and play Michigan.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I'm super pumped, like you guys.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
Again, I say this maybe for reporters or people watching
that don't know me. I love college football, and even
as a kid or watching Michigan play them taking the
field and all jumping up and hitting the go blue sign,
like I love that.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Like there's all these little.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Things along college football and different teams, different stadiums that
are the pageantry of the game.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
And so the Big House is one of those things.
The Michigan helmets them taking the field is one of
those things. And to think like these two iconic programs
with those iconic uniforms and those iconic helmets meeting for
the first time in the Big House. Man, that's it's awesome.
I mean, I'm getting goosebumps right now, you know. And
we got we got five days to go, so it's
(11:37):
pretty special.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Definitely.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Yeah, So it does mean a great deal. Now, clearly
it's gonna be noisy. There would be one hundred and
some odd thousand fans there, whether it's whatever one O seven,
one O nine, one oh five, whatever it is. You
know that those those larger, big bold stadiums like Michigan, Tennessee,
(12:00):
Penn State, those three for sure come to mind with
the well and excess. Even Kyle Field, now you know,
you can get one hundred and four thousand or whatever,
and you can get over one hundred thousand here as well,
So when you're getting into the six digit numbers, it'll
get pretty do anything as well. Also, the other thing
(12:21):
to keep in mind is for those who pay attention
to such things, odds makers. I think it was pointed
out by our good friend Cedar Golden, the Austin American
Statesman have installed Texas Or initially is a three and
a half point favorite, and then it went up to
six and a half after the games of the weekend.
So Sark was asked about all of that in terms
(12:42):
of the drowning out the noise, the outside noise, the
odds makers, all of that sort of stuff that.
Speaker 4 (12:48):
Will depend on if I want to play, if I
want to play one.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
I want to be sat there games a kid.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
You know that that's always the balancing act, that's always
the challenge. You know again, you want you want to
challenge your team. You want to put your team in
position to prepare for the long haul.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
You want to.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
Expose them to see who can respond to some of
these environments that you have to go into. I think
one of the challenges of these neutral site games to
start the year.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Is what does the rest of it?
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Hey, now that particular I want to save that one.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
That's about the schedule making and where it goes. We'll
let you listen to the thing about drowning out the noise,
the outside noise and the odds makers and all that
other kind of stuff. We'll let you hear that, and
also this cut as well coming up, so we'll do
all of that and more. We've got some baseball notes
to get to as well when we continue here on
(13:42):
Sports Radio AM thirteen under the Zone in the IA
Radio app.
We're back.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
It's the Craigway Show with Hall of Fame broadcaster and
voice of the Texas Longhearts Craig Way.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
Good to have you with us again on another Monday,
once again pulled the microphone off of its housing. It
just kind of screws in like that and just pops

five Rose Bowl. Coming off the two thousand and four season.
They've never played in each other's home stadiums. Michigan will
be here in twenty seven. The original planet was going
to be the other way around. So there's some historical
significance here in getting ready for Michigan and.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
What it means. Sark was asked to be able to
line up and play Michigan.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
I'm super pumped, like you guys.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
Again, I say this maybe for reporters or people watching
that don't know me. I love college football, and even
as a kid or watching Michigan play them taking the
field and all jumping up and hitting the go blue sign,
like I love that.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Like there's all these little.
Speaker 4 (11:09):
Things along college football and different teams, different stadiums that
are the pageantry of the game.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
And so the Big House is one of those things.
The Michigan helmets them taking the field is one of
those things. And to think like these two iconic programs
with those iconic uniforms and those iconic helmets meeting for
the first time in the Big House. Man, that's it's awesome.
I mean, I'm getting goosebumps right now, you know. And
we got we got five days to go, so it's
(11:37):
pretty special.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Definitely.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Yeah, So it does mean a great deal. Now, clearly
it's gonna be noisy. There would be one hundred and
some odd thousand fans there, whether it's whatever one O seven,
one O nine, one oh five, whatever it is. You
know that those those larger, big bold stadiums like Michigan, Tennessee,
(12:00):
Penn State, those three for sure come to mind with
the well and excess. Even Kyle Field, now you know,
you can get one hundred and four thousand or whatever,
and you can get over one hundred thousand here as well,
So when you're getting into the six digit numbers, it'll
get pretty do anything as well. Also, the other thing
(12:21):
to keep in mind is for those who pay attention
to such things, odds makers. I think it was pointed
out by our good friend Cedar Golden, the Austin American
Statesman have installed Texas Or initially is a three and
a half point favorite, and then it went up to
six and a half after the games of the weekend.
So Sark was asked about all of that in terms
(12:42):
of the drowning out the noise, the outside noise, the
odds makers, all of that sort of stuff that.
Speaker 4 (12:48):
Will depend on if I want to play, if I
want to play one.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
I want to be sat there games a kid.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
You know that that's always the balancing act, that's always
the challenge. You know again, you want you want to
challenge your team. You want to put your team in
position to prepare for the long haul.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
You want to.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
Expose them to see who can respond to some of
these environments that you have to go into. I think
one of the challenges of these neutral site games to
start the year.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
Is what does the rest of it?
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Hey, now that particular I want to save that one.
Speaker 3 (13:20):
That's about the schedule making and where it goes. We'll
let you listen to the thing about drowning out the noise,
the outside noise and the odds makers and all that
other kind of stuff. We'll let you hear that, and
also this cut as well coming up, so we'll do
all of that and more. We've got some baseball notes
to get to as well when we continue here on
