(05:52):
Texas Memorial Stadium in Austin, Texas. Lawren's fifty two Colorado's
faint Rams nothing. That's how I went down on Saturday afternoon.
Thanks can to Cameron Parker with you at a job
there on the highlight montage as the long runes are
one to oh in this twenty twenty four college football
season with the fifty two dozing win over the Colorado
(06:14):
State Rams. Back here on sports Radio AAM thirteen hundred
zone taking through this Monday after day. Hey, maybe you
get some rain like we are. I'm looking out the
door here. I get a little rain happening in the area,
So that'll be good. And incidentally, I had I talked
to a lot of different folks about what the weather
(06:36):
might be like in ann Arbor, Michigan. Well, I'm here
to tell you that right now it's seventy one degrees there.
Football weather, the high Saturday, the high Saturday sixty one degrees.
That sounds incredible. Yeah, there's a forty percent chance of
(06:57):
rain on Friday, but on Saturday it's supposed to be
just partly partly cloudy, I guess, or partly Sonny. However,
you want to say it either partly cloudy or partly sonny,
but in any event, yeah, it's going to be sixty
one degree, so good football weather there on Saturday. Here's
(07:18):
some more from loggrn's head coach Steve Sarkisian and talking
about playing Michigan. Now, he was asked this question and
it had to do with neutral site games because remember
Clemson played Georgia on Saturday in Atlanta, and last night
in Las Vegas it was USC and LSU, And sark
(07:40):
was asked for his thoughts on would he give thought
to playing a neutral site game like that as part
of his non conference schedule before he gets into that
eight or nine game future SEC schedule.
Speaker 3 (08:02):
Who are those nine teams that'll depend on if I
want to play, if I want to.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Play, if I want to these other games. Again, you know.
Speaker 3 (08:08):
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. You want to expose them to
see who can respond to some of these environments.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
That you have to go into.
Speaker 3 (08:26):
I think one of the challenges of these neutral site
games to start the year is what does the rest
of your schedule look like? And ours is unique in that, Hey,
we played Alabama in the last two years, we play
Michigan this year. We're going to Ohio State next year.
Ohio State comes here the year after that, Michigan comes
here the year after that. So you're looking out years
(08:47):
down the road now all of a sudden, if you
want to play one of those neutral site games, because
I really I don't want to go to Columbus next year,
go to Georgia next year, and then go play somebody
in Vegas too. I mean, at that point, it's a
little we're getting a little.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
We're getting a little out of hand. I agree with
him there, if you were if you were having to
go to Athens and of course they're going to Columbus
next year. If you did those two and then you
play a neutral side game, a high profile game, that's
a little much. Probably the game kicks off at eleven am,
as we know this Saturday, and I seem like, it
(09:21):
seems like I remember this question coming up just about
every year, usually with the Oklahoma game. Although the Oklahoma
game is not gonna be an eleven am kick this year,
in case you haven hurt, it's gonna be two thirty.
So Archie Shark has been asked about the eleven am Kicks.
Does he like him? Does it bother them? All that?
And the answer has always been the same, He's got
no problem with then eleven am kick.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
I would just say, for us, hey, we love morning.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
We love eleven am kicks our time, you know, because
you know, we're a morning operation, you know, we we
we get up every day, we're seven fifteen special teams meeting,
We're on the grass by eight fifty five every day,
and we're off the field every day by eleven am.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
And so any chance for our players.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
To get up and get dressed and go to the stadium
and kick the ball off, they love it, especially on
the road, and so we do welcome that.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
You know.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Again, is it an advantage, I don't know, but I
know that it is helpful for us.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Yeah, it definitely does help. Now, how about that Big
Test Week two thing? As I mentioned, playing Alabama last
year in the second week of the season following a
G five opponent, Now playing Michigan on the road in
week two following a season opening home game against a
G five Big Test in the second week of the season.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
You know, again, I just think you play the hand
your dealt and that just happened to fall the way
that it fell for us. You know, I didn't I
didn't really have much to do with it. You know,
it's just kind of it was what it was.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Really.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
This year's game was supposed to be here.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
I don't know if y'all recall that, and part of
the transition to the SEC and with Fox and whatnot,
the game got moved to ann Arbor. So you just
the schedules, the schedule, and then you try to prepare
your team to go play it. You know, it's fine
that we had last week's game to get ready for
this week's game.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
If this week's game was.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
A week ago, we would have maybe prepared a little
bit differently for the ballgame. So you just, Okay, here's
what the schedule looks like. Here's how we're going to
prepare the team to get them ready to play.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yep, that's that's another way to look at it and
just get ready to go, you know, no matter what
time it is, and the fact that they're playing a
very important, eye profile game in the second week of
the season. He was asked about quarterback play, whether Michigan
and also with quinn Ewers and the importance of good
quarterback play in a big time matchup like the one
(11:47):
against the Wolverines.
Speaker 3 (11:48):
Don't I don't know if there's one just in particular moment,
you know. And that's always a fine line because we
are definitely a rule based, you know, kind of quarterback
room the way that we like to play, but I
also think it is important to sometimes you just have
to play, and you have to make some throws and
some reads and tucket and run that.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Aren't in the playbook that way.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Sometimes things come off a little bit differently, the coverage
is different, whatever it is, And so I don't know,
like I said, if there's just one particular moment for
me or for another quarterback. I just know that that's
what we've grown into and that we do value the
football IQ and playmaking ability that a quarterback can present
that sometimes can make up for poor coaching on my part.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
So they bail me out sometimes.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Two more thoughts from Sark, One about the exciting You've
heard Sark talk about how excited he gets for Saturday
in college football, and here you are going in one
of the hallowed grounds of the game going back to
the nineteenth century and into the early twentieth century, and
(13:04):
where would this particular game might rank for him in
terms of his excitement level as a head coach taking
Texas into ann Arbor.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I like the team.
Speaker 3 (13:15):
I like our team, and I like the fact that, hey,
we're in year four and we generated I think a
really good buzz around Longhord Football, not that there wasn't
one before when we first got here, but I think
because of the way we've continued to grow as a program,
because of the success we had last season on the field,
(13:36):
because of the success of our players going into the
NFL Draft, I think there's genuine excitement. And again I
credit our administration too of promoting this team and creating
the environment in DKR.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
There's without question the environment.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
In DKR is better today than it was in year
one when I arrived. Now the product on the field
is better too. We're a better team. But yet, man,
what energy and what excitement there is around our team
from our fans, And so as a coach, like, yeah,
you like that kind of stuff because you know, in
its own way, that serves as good motivation for your team.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
As well.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
All right, there's a couple more thoughts I'm going to
get from Sarka when we need a break. When we
come back, we'll hear a couple of final thoughts from
long worn head coach Steve Sarkeesian as we continue on
sports Radio AM thirteen under the zone of the iHeartRadio app.
