Speaker 1 (00:04):
No Andy Everett for the next couple days.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
I am your host, Sam Freeze filling in today and
tomorrow in the big chair. I appreciate as always those
of you that decide to ride along with us here
through the evening commute up to seven o'clock tonight. Do
remember Andy will be on the station come seven point
thirty with UTSA Men's basketball tonight as well as tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
He is traveling, but we have.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
The UTSA Coaches Show coming down at six point thirty
before UTSA Basketball takes over again tomorrow night at seven thirty.
So a lot going on on the station today and tomorrow.
Of course, it is also Thanksgiving week, so it's a
short week for everybody, especially the Cowboys as they prepare
for the Chiefs coming to town and that highly intisipated
(01:00):
Post Malone halftime concert.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
I can't stand post Malone. I don't like him. I
never liked him.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I'll say this, at least it's someone like this is
the biggest star of the Cowboys I think have gotten.
I mean, it's not Dolly. It's someone that's at least
Arson one time.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Maybe.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
I mean it's they had I know they had Creed
one year and the height of their career. Yeah, that
was a pretty big one actually, as much as we
joke about the guy flying across the fifty yard line. Else, Oh,
don't don't congratulate yourself for that.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
What's as a Rangers fan?
Speaker 4 (01:37):
That y'all's battle cry, now y'all song all season?
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Trust me, I wish.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
It wasn't true, but yes, Creed will always have a
corner of my heart from that Rangers World Series run.
If you missed most of the first two hours, of course,
Shane will have the podcast up at some point. Don't
pressure him, don't rush him. I'll get to when I
get to it.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
That's how I see.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
That's the producer mentality I was telling you about in
the first hour. That's the amount of stress and anxiety
you need to hold while sitting in that chair. Now,
today's been a lot of cowboys talk, of course, cowboys.
With the dramatic come from behind twenty four to twenty
one victory over the Eagles. We squeezed some Spurs talk
(02:20):
in there as well. Also squeeze some Texas Rangers talk
in there as well. But you can expect the rest
of today and into tomorrow will still have plenty of
football to get to we got to talk some college
football here in a second, and also before we close out,
we're going to talk about another championship performance from over
(02:44):
the weekend, including one of San Antonio's own.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
But I know, Shane, you're a big college football guy.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
As I am locked in, I would say I'm more
locked in on Saturdays than I am sun just by default.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Usually every weekend.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
You kind of have to, especially in our line of work,
to where in the NFL you can afford to pay
attention to one to two games at a time and
get the updates and everything ocean it for somebody else
in college you have ten, eleven, twelve games all at once.
And if you're like me and you know me, I'm
always here. So I always have like four monitors of
games up in front of me. So like it's not
(03:26):
just that I am intune into it, I kind of
have to be. So so it's a little different in
the sports cave. Like how many monitors y'all have to
have games going on? Oh?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Well, typically you're usually at least at least three, and
one of them has.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
A quad box.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
You can't just watch one game.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Yeah, usually it's TV with the quad box, tablet and
then sometimes even phone or the phone's a six man, right, yeah, exactly, Yeah,
you never know, you never know when that game I mean,
dude at midnight, Yeah, Saturday night, I think I still
had a quad box going.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
It was it was the.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
State, it was Fresno State, Utah State, yeah, San Diego State,
Sam Jose State, yes, uh U c l A. Washington.
And then my fourth box was an episode of date Line.
So it was it was. It was a it was
a good college football weekend. Despite it being a multivie.
Speaker 3 (04:24):
Does make the job easier. I will say now.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
That Disney and Google have put uh you know, put
away their differences.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
The they've accepted the power of money the glory.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
As one should, as one will, the glorious quad box
selections are back, uh, just as good as they ever were.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
Do you remember a time where we went into the
final week of the regular season and then no one
had a conference championship spot locked in because the SEC
is still open, Big twelve, still open up, ACC still open,
Big ten, the Americans open.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
There's like eight conferences in the in the Division one.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
The ACC might have a five way tie.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
I know, yeah, because right now I think it's Virginia
and SMU, which if they were in today based on tiebreakers,
but you can't trust anyone because Jordia Tech had a
chance to clinch it last week and they got smoked
by Pitt. So I don't think I can't remember a
time where this many conferences, this late in the regular
season had this many open spots one sometimes but both.
Speaker 2 (05:22):
No, yeah, not completely, which also, of course ties in
nicely with the college football playoff drama and those rankings
that will get a new batch of about this time
tomorrow night to argue and bicker about. But let's start there,
because you mentioned the matchups that actually did go about
(05:47):
determining a conference standings from over the weekend. Oklahoma survives
against Missouri at the time, Oklahoma number eight, Missouri twenty two.
Missouri had no offense at all, couldn't get any offense
going against that Oklahoma defense. I think I told Andy
last week, if if Ohio State is the best defense
(06:09):
in the country, then Oklahoma's number two. But I'm if
you had to ask me which one I have more
confidence in what I've seen from Oklahoma this year. The
speed that they have on defense is unlike anything I've
seen on tape so far this year in college football,
and like like Brent Vinables said in the postgame interview,
(06:31):
on the field, it's not a beauty pageant, it's football,
And that's exactly what Oklahoma did. It wasn't pretty, there
were it was not entertaining, but it was a seventeen
to six victory nonetheless.
Speaker 4 (06:47):
And that's one of the positives actually about the Koshua
Playoff is that it used to be in the past
if you were outside the top five and you won games,
but they were ugly against lesser opponents, that would hurt
your ranking. Now just because now you get automatic qualifiers
and automatic bids and everything like that. Really the style
of victory only really matters for teams ranked like nine
(07:08):
through fifteen. Those final couple spots one through eight is
typically the conference winners, and then the next the next
four up. And so, yeah, Oklahoma, in most years, if
they won a game like that, that's that's not gonna
look good in their BCS rankings. But since this is
the cultural Playoff era, it doesn't matter that they won
by that much against honestly a way overrated Missouri team,
(07:28):
an inferior opponent. They honestly should have won by way worse.
But Oklahoma's offense in the first court was just awful.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Yeah, the the John Mattier pre thumb injury has yet
to reappear. It seems like that Oklahoma offense has question
marks every single weekend, no matter who they're going up against.
The only other game that potentially determined a college football
playoff outcome, I would say it was number seven Oregon
(07:58):
staying ahead of us SEE by two touchdowns most of
that game. They ended up winning forty two to twenty
seven USC. Now with three losses, they seem to pretty
much have eliminated themselves with the outcome of that game
on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Also, what's his name?
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Lincoln Riley not too happy with some of the post
game questions coming his way.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
But Linkiffen and the sark all really don't like questions
on their way, do.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
They, Especially not from college journalists or you know, anyone
that is closer to the age of their players than
they are any of.
Speaker 1 (08:37):
The coaching staff.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
But it seems like that's a trend that has emerges
has emerged with Lincoln Riley. I think the bigger question
here is where where does Oregon get their where does
their respect level fall after do how much is gained
from beating the number fifteen team in the country USC
(09:00):
compared to if A and M beats number seventeen Texas
this coming Friday. It feels like even though USC was
number fifteen, no one's really holding this up as any
kind of solidifying win as it applies to the rankings.
It's just Oregon doing what they have to do to
get into the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
So wins at the beginning of the season can sometimes
look different at the end. Right now, A and M's
really one quality win is Notre Dame. They haven't really
played a tough SEC schedule.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
We expected.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Some people expect that LSU, Missouri be better, even South Carolina.
Obviously that's not that didn't happen. Oregon's bet that their
one loss was obviously against Indiana. Right now, their best
win would probably be USC. They're in a good position
now where they play an underrated Washington team this Saturday
that even if Ohio State wins, it will clinch the
(09:50):
spot in the Big Ten. Indiana wins, they're gonna beat Purdue.
So it's gonna be as like if Ohio State wins,
it's Indiana Ohio State. Oregon is in a good spot
now because they're high enough and they're about to play
another good quality team in Washington, who I expect to
be ranked tomorrow somewhere in the twenties. That if they
win that game but don't play in the Big Ten Championship,
that's a win for them because they get their own
(10:12):
buy and they don't have to do anything in commerce weekend.
So right now Oregon might be in the best position
of anybody among the top ten.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Yeah, the potential for chaos after or going into this
weekend's worth of games with the rivalry week taking full focus.
I'm worried after seeing a great example from this past weekend,
Utah escaping Kansas State, a game they absolutely should have lost.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Oh yeah, they end up.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Coming all the way back winning fifty one to forty seven.
That would have given us some chaos with Utah now
joining the ranks of the three loss teams. You mentioned
Georgia Tech getting embarrassed by Pitt.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
They could have been the one team that would have
clinched it right, and they blew it.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
They just blew it.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
They got beat down.
Speaker 1 (11:01):
See.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
I also feel like that performance from Georgia Tech has
been coming for six weeks now that Georgia Tech team has.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Been hanging on to games, hanging on.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
To leeds physically, you know, winning games based on physicality,
not by performance.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
And now Georgia Tech has to wait and see what
happens with SMU pitt in Virginia because if they even
if they beat Georgia, good for them, They're not gonna
get one of those automat qualifier bits. They have to
they can only get in right now to win the
ACC and they have to hope that one of those
teams ahead of them loses.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
It would be it would be really interesting to see
what the committee does with a two loss Georgia Tech
that beats Georgia in the final week of the season
but then doesn't play in their conference champions.
Speaker 4 (11:43):
Feel like they would give more of a nod to
Miami just because Miami has more quality wins at this point,
even if Miami doesn't play in the AEC championship game.
They have wins over Notre Dame, they ever wins over
South Florida, they ever win over Oh No, they lost SMU,
so that they're two and one against currently ranked team.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
So yeah, and you mentioned it. The two teams.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
If Virginia beats Virginia Tech should and SMU wins, those
are the two teams that are in the ACC Championship game,
right and you would ironically have Miami and Georgia Tech,
who are ranked higher than both of them, not playing
in the conference championship game, which I guess that's a
little bit of chaos for you. I teased an Arkansas
(12:26):
stat at the beginning of the show, and you wondered
how exactly that was ever going to fit into the
run sheet. Well, Texas takes care of business, they roll.
I would have liked to potentially see a little more
points put up late, but calls off the dogs. Texas
settles for a fifty two to thirty seven victory over Arkansas.
(12:50):
Right now, Arkansas is two to nine, but their point
differential on the season is plus three.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Yes, so overall Arkansas.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
That means Arkansas has outscored their opponents on the year
by three points. That would tell me they're better than
their record indicates.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Because five or six of their losses are by one
score games exactly comparing you know they are. They're what
the Cardinals were right before Cala Murray got hurt, where
they're all like, like five of their first seven games
were lost by eight points or less.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
How about I give you a direct example or direct
comparison to another NFL team.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
What's that?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Arkansas's two and nine with a point differential of plus three.
The Chicago Bears are eight and three with a point
differential of minus three. That's how how that's how thin
the margins are in football, because.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
They've got the door.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
The three losses they have, they got the doors blown
off them, and the wins they win close games.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Except the Cowboys, who they blew the door off of.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Right, right, that's their one.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
That's the Bears literal one blowout win they have all season.
So just showing you how thin these margins are in
deciding winners and losers week to week. Coming up next,
let's jump into a little pre preview of the college
football rivalry weekend ahead.
No Andy Everett for the next couple days.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
I am your host, Sam Freeze filling in today and
tomorrow in the big chair. I appreciate as always those
of you that decide to ride along with us here
through the evening commute up to seven o'clock tonight. Do

So a lot going on on the station today and tomorrow.
Of course, it is also Thanksgiving week, so it's a
short week for everybody, especially the Cowboys as they prepare
for the Chiefs coming to town and that highly intisipated
(01:00):
Post Malone halftime concert.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
I can't stand post Malone. I don't like him. I
never liked him.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
I'll say this, at least it's someone like this is

I mean, it's not Dolly. It's someone that's at least
Arson one time.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Maybe.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
I mean it's they had I know they had Creed
one year and the height of their career. Yeah, that
was a pretty big one actually, as much as we
joke about the guy flying across the fifty yard line. Else, Oh,
don't don't congratulate yourself for that.
Speaker 3 (01:35):
What's as a Rangers fan?
Speaker 4 (01:37):
That y'all's battle cry, now y'all song all season?
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Trust me, I wish.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
It wasn't true, but yes, Creed will always have a
corner of my heart from that Rangers World Series run.
If you missed most of the first two hours, of course,
Shane will have the podcast up at some point. Don't
pressure him, don't rush him. I'll get to when I
get to it.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
That's how I see.
Speaker 2 (02:00):

And then my fourth box was an episode of date Line.
So it was it was. It was a it was

Speaker 3 (04:24):
Does make the job easier. I will say now.
Speaker 2 (04:27):
That Disney and Google have put uh you know, put

even if Miami doesn't play in the AEC championship game.
They have wins over Notre Dame, they ever wins over
South Florida, they ever win over Oh No, they lost SMU,
so that they're two and one against currently ranked team.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
So yeah, and you mentioned it. The two teams.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
If Virginia beats Virginia Tech should and SMU wins, those
are the two teams that are in the ACC Championship game,
right and you would ironically have Miami and Georgia Tech,
who are ranked higher than both of them, not playing
in the conference championship game, which I guess that's a
little bit of chaos for you. I teased an Arkansas
(12:26):
stat at the beginning of the show, and you wondered
how exactly that was ever going to fit into the
run sheet. Well, Texas takes care of business, they roll.
I would have liked to potentially see a little more
points put up late, but calls off the dogs. Texas
settles for a fifty two to thirty seven victory over Arkansas.
(12:50):
Right now, Arkansas is two to nine, but their point
differential on the season is plus three.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Yes, so overall Arkansas.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
That means Arkansas has outscored their opponents on the year
by three points. That would tell me they're better than
their record indicates.
Speaker 4 (13:08):
Because five or six of their losses are by one
score games exactly comparing you know they are. They're what
the Cardinals were right before Cala Murray got hurt, where
they're all like, like five of their first seven games
were lost by eight points or less.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
How about I give you a direct example or direct
comparison to another NFL team.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
What's that?
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Arkansas's two and nine with a point differential of plus three.
The Chicago Bears are eight and three with a point
differential of minus three. That's how how that's how thin
the margins are in football, because.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
They've got the door.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
The three losses they have, they got the doors blown
off them, and the wins they win close games.
Speaker 3 (13:51):
Except the Cowboys, who they blew the door off of.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Right, right, that's their one.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
That's the Bears literal one blowout win they have all season.
So just showing you how thin these margins are in
deciding winners and losers week to week. Coming up next,
let's jump into a little pre preview of the college
football rivalry weekend ahead.
