Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Every week can change the season,and the College Football Preview follows the action
every step of the way. JoinedJoe Tanzie and John Jansen as they dive
into the wacky world of college football, the biggest games of the week,
and five bets on teams you've neverheard of. The College Football Preview starts
now on the Game. It isthe College Football Preview podcast in an early,

(00:23):
early early, not too early,but it is an early preview of
some college football bowl games. We'rein bowl season. We've already talked about
the college football playoffs. I'm tiredof talking about the college football playoffs because
the real sore, the real bowlgames, the real games this time of
year. That's not Alabama Michigan,all right, That's Miami of Ohio against

(00:43):
app State, all right. That'sthe real bowl games to me. And
we do got Army Navy as well, but I'm sure you have nothing on
Army Navy. So let's preview someball games here on the College Football Preview
podcast. Here on the Gambler againmyself John Jansen joined us always by Joe
Tanzi. How are you feeling earlyon about some of these bowls? I
have found already a ton of fun, fun matchups, and most of them

(01:04):
obviously are group of five. Yeah, and look, the first the first
week of ball season really is thatthat fun atmosphere the five mentions. Today
is literally the first day. Ithink. I think the best day of
the college football bowl season is Saturday, December sixteenth. It might be,

(01:26):
it's I mean, it's definitely thefirst two Saturdays of ball season. It
always is. And the good thegood part about both of those games or
both of those days is you haveNFL mixed in too, so you can
just sit there and do a multiscreen football experience extravaganza. Football overload,
Joe. It is, but it'sit. We're so used to it this
time of year and like and that'swhat makes the early part of ball season

(01:49):
so great. There. It reallyis like the random locations. We don't
get the Bahamas Bowl this year.It got moved to Charlotte because of the
field in the Bahamas, but uh, there's always sorts of extreme locales,
random matchups, directional school against directionalSchool, and we're gonna beout the heck
out of it. The best partabout bowl season is we get to bet

(02:10):
on all these games and really putthe college Football playoff on the back burner
until after Christmas. And let's behonest, we're probably putting the entire Power
five on the back burner, withthe exception of a few a few middle
of the run schools, until afterChristmas, because then those matchups get weird
and fun. You really have tonavigate who's in the portal, who changed

(02:30):
coaches. All that, the Groupof five games are a little more pure
the bowl games that were used toseeing where the majority these guys are staying.
They're playing for their team, it'sthe last game of their careers,
or they're building for next year,so there's a lot. Now I guess
the Group of five games have reallybecome the purest essence of both seasons.

(02:53):
It's the best part of all seasonbecause I think, what, what is
it? What it's turned into aswell, it's pitting up the best Power
five. Now the Power of fiveteams become bracketbusters for college football. Yeah,
well it's it's because last year wegot it. Last year we got
two of the best. I rememberit was Tulane and uh no, who
was it. Last year it wasUTSA and somebody else or a couple of

(03:13):
years ago. This happened, butit was the two best group of five
teams, two of the best,and they put them against each other.
That's what it's turning into now,it's pitting the best group of five teams.
That we're getting to see those teamsplay each other, and that's the
fun part of it for me.And I think Miami of Ohio and app
State that's a great example of that. Those are two really good group of
five teams and two two very goodteams that I think we get to see

(03:35):
just clash and I love it.And we also get to see Wyoming Toledo
also a very good one. Sowe'll name a few others, but that's
that's what I like, is thatit's become a place for the group of
five to end up showcasing its bestteams. Yeah, it's ESPN has made
this Bracketbusters for college football. Now, a lot of people don't know what
Bracketbusters was, But back in theday, they used to spend one weekend

(04:00):
in February all these mid major teamswould play each other in college basketball.
ESPN would play matchmaker, and that'sexactly what these Group of five games have
turned into. They've become the bracketbustersfor college football because ESPN hand picks these
matchups. It's not conference versus conferenceanymore. It's just their group of five
bowls and ESPN picks the matchups,and they have done a really good job

(04:24):
at it. I know, welike to criticize that the networks for playing
a hand in the demise of collegefootball, but the one one of the
positives we've gotten out of this isESPN handpicking what these these bowl matchups are
in the Group of five, andthey do give us some really good matchups.
I mean, you have Miami ofOhio against app State as the I
guess the crown Jewel. Day twowe give to see New Mexico State Fresno

(04:48):
State, which is pretty good aswell. Right, But then look,
look, James Madison, you getthey fortunately got into a bowl game.
They play air Force, who forthe first half of the season, we're
one of the better teams in collegefootball. Troy, the Sun Belt champion,
gets to take on Duke in agame that I think Troy is going
to be heavily favored in as ashowcase of their program. I mean,

(05:10):
if if you go down the lineof where some of these mid majors got
mixed in. You know, SMUkind of get the role in the end
of the deal against Boston College andthe Fenway Bowl. But that's besides the
point. But you see a bunchof other games. Boise State, who
I think is one of the storiesof the season, firing their coach and
ended up winning the Mountain West title. Right, they get to play u
C l A in a it's nota showcase bowl, but it's seven thirty

(05:34):
on Saturday the sixteenth in the LABowl. It's it's something. It's there.
You see a team like South Floridaand up and coming program play Syracuse.
That's important for them. You seeUC it's not a big major anymore.
But like you get to see thesethese fun but that's it's fun.
They should all be fun matchups onKansas UNLV what chef kiss, That's great.

(06:00):
That's a weird, fun, stupidmatchup. I to see that.
That's what bollseason is. And look, if you go to the back end
of ball season, if you haveWisconsin plays LSU, Iowa plays Tennessee.
I feel like I've seen those.I feel like I've seen those matchups like
once every like two to three yearsin the Citrus in the Outback and and

(06:21):
all those bowls, and it's justI don't I don't need to see those
games anymore. I've seen them playout so many different times, and you'll
see so many different opt outs andall that stuff. And look, they're
still they're still betting angle to thosegames. But the group of five is
where you're going to get the purestversion of the teams that you saw the
regular season in a ball. What'sthe best top matchup featuring top twenty five

(06:45):
teams, because I gotta I gottasneaky one. And that's also that's taking
into account transfers and things like that, transfer portal and guys leaving and guys
not play. Because to me,I do have one that I find I
find interesting, I find fun.But go ahead that it has to be
two top twenty five teams. Yeah, two top twenty five teams. Yep,

(07:06):
I think there's only two candidates forit. And they play on the
same day. What's that one?It's it's either the Pop Tarts Bowl n
C State and K State or theAl. That's what I was gonna say.
That's a great one. That's anawesome those two are the same programs.
It's amazing that. And they're notgonna get there. They're gonna have

(07:26):
some transfers. Uh, there willbe some guys in the portal, but
for the most part, they're gonnaplay. And that's gonna be a really
exciting game. I love that one. Which one Kansas State, NC State
the pop tart. Yeah, Imean case State losing their ocs is a
big deal, calling client at Aand M. So we'll see how that
works out. But that's it's twocoaches you respect, Dave Dard and Chris

(07:49):
Climbing. You know exactly what you'regonna get yep out of out of those
guys. Uh. And and pluswhat are we doing. We're eating a
pop tart, a live action poptart. They're eating the masko. Yeah
yeah, yeah, we live mascoteating action. That's great. Which,
by the way, I know,I know you have really terrible food takes.
I'm expecting the worst here, butlike, if you had to choose

(08:11):
a pop tart to eat out of, Oh, that's easy, okay,
what is be careful? Why yousay that? Yeah? I know it's
brown sugar cinnamon. Okay, thatthat is the only answer. I know
that's a bit of is it thepopular one like that? I feel like
every most would say brown sugar cinnamon, brown sugar cinnamons, like the og
pop tart. Yeah, that's that'swhat I would choose. And after that

(08:35):
I don't like. I'm okay withlike the cookies and creams type flavors.
But then I like the the strawberriesand the cherries and the blueberries and stuff
like that. That's what I like. Cherry action is what I really like.
John Jansen finally has a food takethat we can all agree on.
It took us a bajillion years toget to this point. You finally made
the right choice. Or yes,you're terrible for you. By the way,

(08:56):
I love them. I don't care. I eat a bunch of things.
They're terrible for me. But yeah, one of those brown sugar cinnamon
one that has to toast, oryou don't have to toast, but if
you put it in the if youput it in the toaster for a little
bit and you get a nice little, you know, warm taste to the
brown sugar to tar. My momdoes with pop tarts. I've already said

(09:18):
that a few times, but Iwill again. She toasts it and then
butters it. Yeah, we've talkedabout that. Wild I still have never
seen anyone else do that before.No, I have not either. That's
terrible for you. It's terrible foryou. By the way, don't do
that. But yes, my motheris the only person in the world.
I've done it a few times becauselook, I can't do it often.
But it is good, like I'vetried. It is phenomenal. But yeah,

(09:41):
do you think they're gonna butter themascot before that's that's the mayo bowl.
Oh man, you get to seeNeil Brown just like drenched. What
is the most questionable thing you woulddip in mayo? The most questionable thing?
Actually, I asked that because thefamous one is Michael, like Junior

(10:03):
dipped Oreo cookies in the Duke's mayodri I know this isn't kind of controversial,
but we just did this with ourThanksgiving leftovers, and I think this
is a tip for everyone. Soyou take the like the King's Hawaiian roles
or like your your little mini sliderroles, you cut it open, put
a little mayo on it, andthen you stick your your leftover turkey and

(10:28):
you know what whether it be stuffingor mash potatoes or both, whatever you
like in there, and boom youhave a little sandwich. It actually was
amazing. My wife gets all thecredit for that. Yeah, yeah,
I want the mashed potatoes on theside. I always want mash potatoes by
itself, because that's that's so good. But I do love a leftover turkey

(10:50):
sandwich, just turkey with rye bread, mayo, and a little bit of
salt. For some reason, justsalt makes it start with that. I
don't not a lot, I don'tkick it on there, but a little
bit simple yet classic. But uhyeah, mayo. I don't know what
questionable things. I don't know ifI would dip an oreo and that.
By the way, people mention this, but leftover Thanksgiving turkey might be like

(11:11):
a bottom flat food on its own. Okay, I don't like you.
All right, let's continue with someof these games on its own, not
everything else. It's fine, buton its own it's very dry. Not
a fan if you cook, ifyou reheat it right, I mean,
it's still fine. You're you justgot to learn it because you're too late.
But we not you, not justyou. We lazy people in general,

(11:37):
just don't want to reheat it theright way. You could probably reheat
it the right way and still haveit a little bit juicy and stuff,
but we just want to throw itinto microwave and be done with it.
And that's why I put it ina slider sandwich with a little bit of
mayo and some stuff. It's great, completely fine. I don't know how
we got into this tangent, allright, So uh, let's start off
just with the first week, firstfew days of the college football bowl season

(11:58):
and some of the bigger ones StateMiami of Ohio, ab State. I
mean, what's kind of come outof nowhere for me? Is Aguilar has
been awesome. He's been one ofthe best quarterbacks, not only just in
the Group of five, but incollege football. Thirty three touchdowns this season,
nine interceptions. Now we have BlaineGabbert's brother, Brett Gabert, who

(12:18):
has been injured, okay and injured, so maybe on Smith was fantastic.
Yeah, the MAC Championship game forMiami of Ohaigo. Right, they have
gone through bitter changes, Gabert wasOkay, They've moved on because of injury
and have been good. Their offenseis in great Miami of Ohio. It's
really their defense that is outstanding.The last three four five games of the

(12:39):
season. They did not allow ateam to score over twenty points in the
last five games of the season.That's remarkable. So this is becoming a
little bit of what a game lastyear that we saw, you know,
great defense against a great offense.In the group of five, this feels
like the same way. To me. Ab State's defense isn't great, but
they have a really good quarterback,they have a great offense. It's a

(13:00):
really good battle here, I thinkbetween those two squads. So there's a
lot of things I weigh into witha bowl game handicap. It's different than
regular game. It's it's motivation firstand foremost, and obviously which players are
in and out, and you don'tget that as much in a group of
five. And then look at coaches, because coaches are a big, big

(13:22):
part of this, and Chuck Martinat Miami doesn't get a lot of credit
that he deserves, probably one ofthe more underrated coaches in the country.
Miami of Ohio, by the way, one of I think four teams.
I think four is the number withdouble digit wins against the spread this year,
they're ten to three. That beingsomething to me is better. I
bet on them in the MAC Championshipagainst Toledo, and you saw me.

(13:43):
We were watching this together in thestudio. It really was not a sweat
with Miami of Ohio. So I'mgonna keep my loyalty to the MAC,
to the RedHawks of Miami of Ohio. I really like this plus five and
a half. I'll take it asa team I'm gonna ride with here.
Up State very good as well,but the defense a little more susceptible.
I think a team with the betterdefense in the game that matters in terms

(14:05):
of what both teams achieved this season, both conference champion championship participants at state
loss Detroit Miami Ohio beat Toledo.I'm in on Miami of Ohio here.
Yeah, I think I'm on aMiami of Ohio as well. And it's
because of that defense, Joe.They ranked seventh in points against this season,
seventh in all college football. Now, the thing is one hundred and

(14:26):
fifteenth and passing sixty ninth and rushing, but that can win rushing, especially
defense and rushing in college football andbowl season. Now, I don't know
what numbers back up anything any trends, but I do like to back teams
that can run the ball a littlebit, because passing games can be out
of sync. You know, gamescan open up and get a little bit
weird in Bowl season. But look, it's a completely different environment. You're

(14:48):
going up defenses and teams you haven'tseen before. Teams that could be more
physical and make the game simpler worka lot better in these situations. So
I love running game, I lovedefense, and Miami of Ohio has so
I'm on Miami, Ohio here,I'm with you. And it's it's nice
to that that game is a threethirty ABC game too. It's a nice
little right in the middle of theday market game. I love it.

(15:11):
Cure Ball, by the way,in Orlando, I know we didn't mention
that, Yeah mentioned these Bowl names. To stay on that first Saturday because
there's six games starting at eleven o'clock. By the way, Georgia, Southern
and Ohio got the raw end ofthe deal. Hell here eleven o'clock on
a Saturday morning at Myrtle Beach.That's the friends and family only attendance.

(15:35):
Love that one. Oh yeah,But it's also sick. It was like
me, you're gonna wake up andwatch that early and look, that's gonna
be great. And I think theonly way to bet in this game,
I want to say, Ohio,I think work the quarterback isn't there's a
yeah, I think that's why GeorgiaSouthern's favored in this one. But Georgia

(15:56):
Southern look and I've against them alot in November, so I know exactly
what they're not about here. They'renot about playing defense. So that that
part, that part to me isjust very frustrating to see that team favored,
even with Ohio not dealing with withwith Rourke out, but he's been

(16:18):
injured for parts of the season,so to me, that that is also
something like keep an eye on soto go through. By the way,
Action Networked does a fantastic job withputting all their putting everything together with the
opt outs and portal and everything likethat. So Ork and Bengora they're running

(16:38):
back or from the portal. Bythe way, Miami of Ohios quarterback am
On Smith is in the portal aswell. We didn't mention that that's one
the portal. Yeah, so that'ssomething forget what I said about Miami.
Actually, know what, I'm stillsticking with Miami of Ohio because they're because
it wasn't like their offense was thatgreat anyway, watching its LEDO game,
it wasn't offense. It was alldefense and running the ball if that works

(17:00):
for them, and they're part ofthe running game, so I can't dismiss
it too there they are top receiversstill in there, and and look Upstate's
got two guys running back and widereceiver who are in the portal as well.
So I'm still sticking with that becauseI think their defense is pretty good.
But yeah, this is this issomething with Ohio that, yeah,

(17:21):
they're the better team, they're nineto three. But this is where the
portal kind of messes with your headbecause works out band or is out?
Do you do you want to takethe team that that's better. I am.
Look, I know it's hard tosay these you lose all of your
production basically, but at the endof the day, their defense is still

(17:45):
intact. I don't see any defensivetransfers, to see offensive transfers, and
they have won games with defense allseason long, and that's kind of what
I look at in this game.I don't trust. I don't trust Georgia
Southern that much, and look theway their defense has been playing this year,

(18:07):
especially in this last month, theirbackups still might be able to get
some points up. It's a lazygame. I think this is gonna be
very lazy. Eleven am. Iactually would probably be more inclined to take
the under than Ohio here because ofthe time what Ohio's done and Georgia Southern,

(18:29):
it's not like they've had the mostexplosive offense, and Davis bring their
their quarterback very turnover prone. Sixteeninterceptions, not good even at the group
of five level. So look,I tendedly in defense here. I know
I'm kind of talking my way througha pretzel of thoughts, but I think
Ohio and the underseas, Yeah,welcome to the whole season. I look,

(18:52):
I can't trust the quarterback in GeorgiaSouthern regardless, So I think I'm
gonna take Ohio and probably the underin that game, because why not take
two bets and the first bowl gameof the year. Yeah, I wanted
to open up a little bit moreoutside of just that Saturday. I just
other bowl games at least early on. You'll be looking to bet one for
me, UTSA is nine and ahalf, but that's still a great number
for me if it's going to beunder ten. I know UTSA is losing

(19:17):
aac defensive player that you're trade moreas I'm seeing here. Other than that,
all coming back and look, FrankHarris, this is last game.
I'm pretty sure every time I seesomebody's last game, it's like, no,
they have another year of eligibility leftsomehow, But this, this is
going to be Frank Harris's last game. One of the greatest Group five college
quarterbacks in the last few years.I love the way he's played. I

(19:40):
think he's he's been phenomenal for UTSAand has brought them to Conference USA championships,
to big bowl games, and thismight be a good way to let
him, let him go, lethim out with on a high note in
a great part of his career anda great career at UTSA. Now Marshall
two, they're going to be downto their backup quarterback. They're startingquarterback is
in the transfer portal. By theway, you see what did you see

(20:03):
what the Marshall head coach said,By the way about Cam Fancher, No,
he was basically like, yeah,the fans didn't like him anyway,
so I'm happy. I'm happy he'sable to go. That's rough. Yeah,
like it was very did he reallyYeah? Let me get the exact
quote for you. Yeah. Yeah, Charles Hoff says, miserable starting quarterback

(20:30):
Cam Fancher entered the transfer portal becausefans hate him. Wow, that's not
great. You shouldn't say that abouta player, at least you shouldn't say
that out loud. No, notout loud for sure. So he's gone.
But the thing is the backup quarterbackand this is one of those that

(20:51):
are going to make you feel old. Chad Pennington's son, Cole Pennington's going
to get the start. So thisis one of those facts. If you
responded to my text messages like amonth ago and I know, yeah,
he already put you know, yeah, he already played. Yeah, So
Cole Pennington's getting to start. Thething is utsa again. Offense. Marshall
wasn't very good to begin with.Six and six okay, offense, nothing

(21:12):
spectacular. This isn't the racking Katooffenses of back in the day that we
used to see with Marshall. Cephasis still playing he's not transferring. Barnes
is still going to be there.Their top rusher for UTSA and they have
Frank Harris. They lost to Tulanetough game, but for the most part
they've been really good since Frank Harrishas been back. He was injured to

(21:33):
start the season but came back.Ever since, the offense been playing very
very well. Ran into a buzzsol of a really good defense in Tulane,
and Marshall has not been playing well. I love UTSA in this game
again. Really good sendoff to oneof the better group of five college quarterbacks
of the last few years. I'mgonna go back to the first Saturday because
I think motivation is a big thingand Jacksonville State minus three against ul Look,

(21:59):
it feels like the Ragie Cagns justplaying the New Orleans ball every year,
right, Ragings got the six wins. I am shocked if they did.
Like I just, I just Ifeel like Jacksonville State is just a
far better team. Doesn't look likethe opt outs are are hitting them very
hard, uh, And I justthink they're just flat out the better team.
I think that's a Yeah, they'rebasically Louis Yeah, can't they can't

(22:22):
the Ragieks cannot throw the ball.They are an awful passing offense. So
look, jackson it's for gotten better. But no, I think they're an
easy play here. It's just thatthat first Saturday is gonna be tough because
you do have some some key fiveopt outs. But Jacksonville State looks like
they're in the clear with that,so I'm I'm willing to take them there.

(22:48):
The other thing I look at hereis this weird week between this this
Saturday. Yeah, that we havesix games, but then we get a
bunch of one game each day basicallyuntil Christmas. And you mentioned Marshall Utsa.
We get old men in western Kentuckyat like two point thirty on a
Monday, and then you have thesereally weird games. And I'm lumping Duke

(23:11):
and Troy into this on the twentythird noon because you have a Syracuse team
who just fired their head coach,Tino Vapors, slight favorite in South Florida,
a team that could really use thiswin as a as a team building
thing for their program. And thenyou have George Tech UCF, which is
a weirdly fun game if everyone's healthy, because Georgia Tech's on the up and

(23:36):
up. UCF needs a little bitof positivity after a rough year in the
Big twelve. That's a very fascinatinggame to me, as long as everyone
remains in the not in the portaland then name of the game from both
seasons right, and then look,Duke Troy is fascinating to me because you're
gonna see a sun Belt champion inTroy. Just beat the ever living snot

(23:57):
out of Duke, because Duke's notgoing to have a majority of their guys.
Roddy Leonard's already out, Mike Elko. Yeah, like this is one
of those games. There's a reasonwhy why Troy is a seven a half
point favorite. But man, it'sso hard for me to stir up any
motivation from Duke's side. By theway, I think Manny Diaz is a

(24:18):
fantastic higher awesome. I think that'sa great spot for him. A lot
of he turned guess turned his careeraround as Penn State's DC. But I
mean, that's that's great higher forthem. But I look at that game,
I think Troy, if I thinkif you can find team totals for
Duke on that game, you mightwant to bet the under because yeah,
that's a good exercise. And Iguess a larger question when looking at some

(24:41):
of these ball games, what areyou looking for? Obviously, coaches,
leaving, transfers, all that stuffyou know we look for, but what
do you what are you looking for? For the most part, when selecting
these bowl games to bet on.I think you just hit on it.
It's just who's actually available. Andit's tougher at the G five level because

(25:02):
we haven't we don't watch these guysweek in and week out. We pop
in occasionally we find teams we beton. But I think in this case,
it's all about motivation for me,like Jacksonville State's got all the motivation
in the world. Oh, hisfirst bowl game as an FBS program,
Rich Rod's got them going in theright direction. Of course, I would
love to bet on them. Butthen you see a team like Duke,

(25:25):
you see a team like Syracuse,What does Syracuse have to play for?
What does Duke have to play for? Nothing? Because that roster is going
to look completely different in this ageof college football. And even if you
get further in the bowl season,what does what does all have a state
have to play for? Like?What does usc like they're very it's very
easy to spot these these lack ofmotivation spots. And then the one thing

(25:49):
that's that stands out to me toois kind of location and want to be
there part of that how to dealwith it too. It just there's so
many, so many variables with boldseason that make it completely different. It's
a totally different animal than betting thecollege football regular season. It is because

(26:11):
there's a lot it's a lot ofnew information, all of it all at
once, you know. I mean, we we have an idea some of
these guys are going to stay,so it's going to stay the same,
but it's almost a completely new differentteam that you're almost having to figure out
and some of the players all ofthat, and some of this information isn't
even available until game day. Imean, how many cases have we seen
where offensive starters are on the sidelinesand we don't know that information, you

(26:37):
know, even before kickoff. It'swe find that out in the first quarter
when we don't see these guys playing. It's it really is tricky and navigates.
You got to have your your eyeson all the information coming out.
I mean, Miami Ohio breakdown withouta quarterback. But still I still like
Miami Ohio because of their defense.But that that goes beyond the point here.

(26:59):
You gotta know all the information that'savailable. Good news is the majority
of it will be available to youwhen it comes to the portal. Uh.
The NFL draft guys, depending onwhere they are where they're projected,
could be a little more difficult,but I think in the instances of transfer
portals, these guys want to getout and get to new programs as as
quick as possible. So yeah,and and yeah, guys will stay,

(27:21):
will play the ball game. Itis very rare though. Yeah, and
I also don't trust guys who aretrust teams with with new head coaches because
the motivation just varies so much.I mean, you're You're Texas A and
M's your Dukes, your Syracuse.First of all, the top players are
probably gone. And second of all, the you know these players, what's

(27:42):
the motivation for them to even playin this game if if they're going to
be gone as well? Yeah,because it's not like they're they're going to
be showcasing for a new coach.Coaches, I mean, it's goin to
be there. But look, they'refairly going to pay attention to that kind
of game and that environment of agame. So yeah, I think you're
right, all right, Joe.So we'll wrap it up there. Any
final thoughts Early Bowl Preview. Giveme a gimme Army Navy winner, how

(28:06):
about that? I will give you. Let's go on. Navy's bad.
Bad. Yeah, I'll go Army. Yeah, Navy's bad. Also,
this game, I'm in my soapboxevery time I talk about this game.
It should be a Philly. Itshould be a Philly for the majority of

(28:26):
the time. The fact that wedon't get this game in Philly till twenty
twenty seven, that is bs.This game should primarily be in Philly.
Go to Baltimore every once in awhile, go to MetLife every once in
a while, go ahead, dothat. But this should be a Philly.
