Speaker 1 (00:02):
Control, there's a deceiver and believers.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
And in between that seemed how no place to go.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
The iconic Willie Nelson here on the Texan Tuesday Here,
I'm thirteen under the zone.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Glad to have you with us. Craig Way alongside the.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Producer Jay Carman, who's also the play by play voice
of the Bass Drop Bears, and they have their area
around playoff game up in Belton at Mary hardin Baylor
on Saturday afternoon against a surprising Waco University team afore
beating one there, so I know you're.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Looking forward to that. So as we talk football.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Greg Tepper is the editor in chief of Dave Campis,
Texas Football Magazine.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
He joins us, now, all.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Right, Tap, I'm you know how we always give each
other like three games to choose from. I'm going to
open this segment by asking you which was the most
surprising development of the football weekend?
Speaker 1 (01:08):
A that.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Waco U knocked off Belleville. Excuse me, not Bellville for
Ben Marshall. I said Melville for Ben Marshall. A that
that B that A and M spotted South Carolina thirty
to three half time lead. Don't need to come back
and win or c that Texas State strum not only
(01:33):
be but strum the Southern miss team that did not
have a conference loss, and now all of a sudden,
the Bobcats are two bottom feet or victories away from
being Bowl eligible.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
What's the most surprising of those three to use?
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Yeah, all three kind of came as a as a shock.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
I think the answer is probably A and M simply
because that may in fact be and I don't know
the last time we've seen this, That may in fact
be the worst half of football.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
That we have seen a football team play this season
at any level.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Followed by the best half of football.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
Anybody ever seen.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
It looked like the the the complete and utter one
eighty that that game took.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
I meant at at you.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Know, at halftime, at thirty to three, you are thinking, boy,
there's a chance Biscuits really ugly because the.
Speaker 6 (02:22):
Way the way that it.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
Was happening, where anem was just getting their rear kicked
up front by South Carolina and Marcel Reid couldn't find
a receiver.
Speaker 6 (02:33):
It looked helpless.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
And then suddenly they come out of halftime.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
And look unstoppable, look like the con team that we've
seen all yelling and I thought that that was their
best half of football and they needed every bit of it.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
It was that was the.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
One that shocked me, because it was not just how
terrible they looked in the beginning, but how quite frankly
unbeatable they looked in the second half in consecutive thirty
minute increments.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
I don't know if I've ever.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
Seen a team flipp a switch that aggressively like the
agg you did on Saturday.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, no doubt about it. Greg Tepper is the editor
in chief of Dave Campbell's Texas Football magazine. So let
me ask you this step.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
If you can only have one, only one of these
two gets invited to New York for the Heisman? Is
that Marcel Reader? Is it Jacob Rodriguez, the Texas tech linebacker.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
I think it's probably Marcel Reid what he's been able
to do, because because you and I actually in the
offseason we were talking on this very program and talking
about how this felt like your opinion on A and
M would go as Marcel Reid goes, and certainly he
has been remarkable for them, and we talked about how
this this year was a referendum on Colin Pline, the
(03:44):
offensive coordinator that's obviously gone pretty well for him as well. Now,
Jacob Rodriguez has obviously been fantastic. I just saw actually
a stat online that if Jacob Rodriguez was a team,
he would have the fifth most four turnovers in college
football this year. He has been remarkable, But I also
(04:05):
think that.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
There is an argument to be made.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
That he may not even be the best player on
his own defense and he consider what David Bailey has
been able to do, I think that is it that
they would probably split the vote there in my opinion.
So for me, Marcel Reed has been so singular to
A and them's success, whereas Jacob Rodriguez has obviously has
been spectacular. But I think that he's got a guy
up front off the edge who is helping him out
(04:27):
significantly as well. I would probably lean towards Reed just
based on the way that Heisman voting tends to go.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
On the Dave Campill's Texas Football Division one FPS power poll,
Texas holds onto its three spot and the comment there
there was there was a path for a three lost
Texas to reach a college football player, but not one
where the long Worns lost by four possessions in November. Now,
I know some will say, hey, it's a fourteen to
ten game in the fourth quarter, but Bill Parcells.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Will say you are, which your record says you are.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
He got away in the fake fun had a lot
to do with that as well am I writing and
what I've said, A, they have to win the remaining
two games, and B there's one to be some chaos
because the Oklahoma winver Alabama did not help Texas once
the Long Orange Laws lost that game on Saturday night.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Yeah, it's strange that now you're exactly right. I think
Texas is in a position where they need to win
out and get some help because an invite to the
SEC Championship game outreach now that they will not have
that ability to give people one more kind of.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Look at them.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
And furthermore, it does feel like it's getting crowded up
there as far as teams that could get in there.
In fact, Mike Craven wrote an article just today on
Texas football dot Com about how there's a possibility and
Texas gets four teams in the College Football playoffs.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
You know, if you consider, you know, let's just say.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
That that Texas Tech wins the Big Twelve, Well, they
would be in the playoff A and M. We we've
already penciled them in to the playoffs. North Texas looks
like they could absolutely be the G five representative and
then getting out get a bid to the dance, and then.
Speaker 6 (05:59):
You add in you add in Sneagally, SMU can take
control of their own destiny. SMU can absolutely win the
ACC if they win the rest of their games and
then beat Georgia Tech presumably and.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Then the ACC tiing. I mean this is.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
There's a universe there where we.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
Get four Texas teams in there that aren't the University
of Texas, and so I think that if.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
You're a Longhorn fan, obviously.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
You want to go out there and win the last
two games. That is imperative. I mean, one more loss
obviously would disqualify them. But I also think that you're
going to need to start rooting for.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Some things to go a little bit of pair shapes
and for for.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
Some teams, maybe even like.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
A you know, you don't want.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
To root for injury, but we've seen in the past
that the committee will consider injuries and player availability in
something like that. If one of the teams were to
lose one of their key players. That is the kind
of thing that Texas at this point, it's going to be,
it's going to be a bank shot now for for Texas.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
To get in. You know, there was the universe.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
In which if they had beaten they won against.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
Georgia you know this past week, that they would have
had an opportun co unity to you know, or even
just played.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
A closer game.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Now it feels like they're going to need a number
of things to go right in addition to them, you know,
of course winning their final two games.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
How cool would it be, since you and I are
both Texas high school football nerds, for SMU to play
Georgia Tech. When you've got two quarterbacks who have won
state championships in in Kevin Jennings for SMU and obviously
Haines King for Georgia Tech, King being from Longview and
Jennings being from South O'kcliff.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
I mean, yeah, you could have a situation in which
you could have multiple, multiple you know, quarterback, you know,
multiple players in the in the college football Playoff who
are representing Texas.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
High school football teams. I mean, I think that's that's
exactly it.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
And so yeah, what a the story Georgia Tech is
with Haines King kind of and they they are a
team that just finds a way to win. But you're right,
I think that that speaks to that we just actually
just put the finishing touches.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
On our annual recruiting.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
That just speaks to the depth and the range of
Texas high school football talent as it's spread across the nation.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
You know, everywhere you.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
Look, it seems like somebody's got a guy who is
won at the highest level here in Texas that is
now kind of a prerequisite for succeeding at that college level.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Okay, I got to ask you about these two teams
that before we move on to high school, and that's
Rice in Texas State. The owls are five and five,
and like you said that, the blurb says decided Rice
can clinch a bull birth by winning women the last two.
So you think all great and said the problem is
those two games are in South Florida, North Texas, so
might be difficult regardless of what happens this first year.
(08:39):
I think with everything that with the coaching change is
pretty impressive. To see what's going on in Houston.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
Yeah, I think for Scott Abell you know, obviously, look,
he's not interested you talk with him, he's not interested
in moral victories. But at the same time, I think
you look at what Rice has been able to do.
They've already exceeded expectations. They've already kind of shown that
they can be a team to be reckoned with you
don't want to play. And furthermore, I think that more importantly,
they have identified an identity. You know, this is a
(09:06):
team that that is able to get the you know,
get it going on the ground. This is one of
the better rushing attacks in all of in all of
college football.
Speaker 5 (09:16):
You know, they average two hundred and eleven yards per.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Game on the ground.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
This is a team you know that's that's more than
tex and Tech does, That's more than BYU does. I mean,
this is a team that that that has established an identity,
which I think if you were to be critical of
the previous administration.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
With Mike Bloombrin that they were not able to establish
that identity.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
They have a player identity, and I think that for Rice,
that is that is moving forward. Certainly, whether or not
it ends in a bowl game, I.
Speaker 5 (09:43):
Will say this that if they're.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
They don't have enough bowl teams, right, which does happen?
I believe they go to APR and I'm not sure
anybody in America is a better APR than Rice. So like,
maybe keep those pats. Don't put the point the pads
just yet.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
If you guys go five and seven, yeah, it's good.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
It's a good point there are they being five and
so they've done it with they could certainly do it.
And then with regard to Texas State, with everything GJ.
Kenny's program has been through year this year, injuries and
inconsistencies and heartbreaking overtime losses and all that stuff, for
them to go out and deliver a knockout punch to
the team leading the West Division, the Sun Belt, Southern
(10:19):
miss all of a sudden, there's a light at the
end of the tunnel. They got Ulm and they've got
South Alabama, two of the other bottom feeders along with
them in the West. They got a chance to slip
in the back door and wind up being a bolt
team after all.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
You know, for a season, this has kind of been
such a I don't know how GJ. Kenny is going
to judge this season, and obviously how it finishes will
go a long way but when you consider how it
started where they go out there and they had no
problem with Eastern Michigans. Did they go on the road
to Utsa and they beat Utsa? We were talking about
what a list that was for that program. Well, you know,
(10:56):
since then, they have lost six of their like they
don't go and that's that's I missed game. They've lost
six of their last seven. They only win has been
against you know, woefull FCS Nickels State. Now to go
on the road, and you're exactly right to not just
beat Southern mess but to really dominate them on the road. Suddenly,
you know, you talk about life, Uh, this is the
(11:18):
program that they're you know, they're gonna be favored in
their final two games, and that feels like for Texas State,
obviously that.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Would be huge to make another goal game.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
That's something that as far as program, uh you know,
consistency and program.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Momentum you want to have.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
But furthermore, I would also say that if you are GJ.
Kinney and perhaps you are looking around at other potential
openings that they're going to come uh in Tochingba, you know,
finding a way to kind of put pull this thing
out of the ditch when.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
All have seemed lost.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
I think that really, uh, you know, bodes well.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
For DJ Kinney if he were to have some wandering
eyes and be want to be considered for other positions.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
So yeah, I think for Texas State, that's that's that's
a rather shocking result that I think flew under the radar,
maybe because we were so caught up with A and
M crazy comeback or Texas playing between the hedges.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Yeah, all right, Greg tempers with us here from Dave
Camill's Texas Football Magazine. Okay, my mom used to say,
a slip of the tongue is no fault to the mind.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Actually kind of is really that.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
I didn't want to argue with her about that when
I when I mentioned the Waco you upset of Fort
Ben Marshall, I said Belleville because I was also thinking
about the other supercent tex upset, China Spring beating Belleville.
Are they on equal planes with for beating ones on
this deal?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
How did you evaluate those?
Speaker 4 (12:37):
Yeah, it's a it's a It was a wild first
week of the playoffs. You know, we had twenty two
teams that finished and fourth place in their district win
a first round game. Now, some of those we could
have seen coming where they finished fourth in a really
really good district, right and maybe the team that they
were matched up with in by district, you know, was.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
The product of a week or district, so to speak.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
But there other ones that you mentioned, like, you know,
like like China Spring beating Belleville. That is downright shopping.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I mean, that's one that that nobody necessarily had on.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Your bage car.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
I'll give you another one that really shook up.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Things around here, Fluegerville Weiss going to La Port and
knocking off Laport. That was a team that we bought
had state championship aspirations, but Wis figured things out and
got things going in a big way. They switched things
up defensively in the second half and.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Really got to go.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
And now suddenly you start saying, well why not Weiss,
you know, within their own district.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
It was it was.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
A bizarre not a bizarre week, but it was a
strange week.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
And you're right, Waco. You has been a team that
has has been very up and down.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
When they're up, the talent they have is is is
really really hard to match. But it hasn't always been
that consistent. A lot of what's gonna you know, obviously
on Friday night they were up and they were playing fantastic.
Can they do it again against a high powered bastrip
team that that certainly is no stranger to to putting
up to light up the scoreboard?
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Yeah, uh, no doubt about it. Okay boy?
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Uh, Like I said, you and you and your cohort
Ashley Pickle have used the term box office. I mean, uh,
Vandergriff Westlake lived up to every single bit of the
billing and then some didn't it.
Speaker 7 (14:16):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Sometimes the game of the week is just the game
of the week, you know what I mean? Like U,
Sometimes my job is easy, is like, watch this game.
It's great. And then it was.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
And it was also kind of a real return to
form I think for both of these teams and the
way that they have wanted to play, which is you know, look,
it's no secret that both Tony Salad are the head
coach at Westlake and Drew Standards head coach of and
they are defensive high their defense first. We will figure
out the offense later, the defense and what comes first.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
And that's what this game was.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
It was.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
It was a real battle of wills and an opportunity
for both teams to to really flex UH as far
as their defenses are concerned. And I think that what
you saw was Vandergrift having just a little bit extra
UH there and then obviously having any bound kicker there
at the end certainly helps. But this was exactly what
we thought. It was two extremely eavenly matched teams.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
That ended up, you know, going down to the wire.
Speaker 4 (15:07):
What I found remarkable and I hope that Westlake fans,
who are obviously still licking their wounds, will take.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
This as some small solace.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
But this is the first time that Westlake has lost
consecutive games in the same season since twenty thirteen. I
think about that they have not had a two game
losing streak. I mean it had like, obviously, you lose
that a two game losing streak if you consider the
fact that they lost a state championship.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Game last year and then lost their opener this year.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
But when you consider in the same season to they
haven't lost two consecutive games in a decade.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
I think that speaks to the excellence.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
In the pedigree of this west Lake program. I know
they're smarting right now, but credit to what the Vandergrift.
And by the way, I think that bracket really opens
up for Vandergrift suddenly. And now you're talking about them
in big picture terms as far as how far they
can go.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Yeah, good point. Here, as we've visited with Greg Tapper.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Okay, here, we're back to doing the meanest thing we
do each other, and that is to give you three
games to choose from.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Now, you know, it's you know, it's funny.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
I'm sorry to interrupt, but like now it's just it's
even meaner like each week. Now it's like progressively meaner.
You know, it's it's it's mean when we do it
in the week four, when you do it in the
area around it is torture.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Then they get then they get more cruel. I think
as we go forward, I think I think it does. Okay,
all right, so yeah, I'm not gonna waste any time
with this in terms of uh, you know, one of
the ones to choose from. You can choose from these
three games. You can either be at, uh, the North
(16:39):
Shore Ridge Point game.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
You knew I was gonna mention that. You know I
was gonna mention North short Ridge Point. It makes all
a sense in the world to mention North Shore and Ridgepoint.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Uh So it was either mean North Short Ridge Point
is is choice number one. Choice number two is Bay
City lb J okay in one.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
So that's that's choice number two.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
And then the third and final choice that you have
to make between those three would be in class to A.
The choice is going to be Wink and Groover.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
Oh man see LBJ and BA City is a real
balloer's game, because that's the one that's like.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Those are two.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
Teams that I think are are kind of flying under
the radar of are sneaky good. I think LBJ LBJ
kind of suffers from South oaklist disease. And what I
mean by that is that they play a very difficult
non district schedule.
Speaker 6 (17:39):
Right and then they go and they get.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
Into district play, and with all due respect, they're just
a lot better than all the teams in their district.
So they don't really play an interesting game for two months,
and now suddenly they're back and they are dangerous. That
gud is fascinating. I love Lincoln Groover because you want
to talk about for Wink being so close and feeling
like they like this is the year, this is year
for each of the last six consecutive years. Maybe it is,
(18:03):
I mean to me and for Sean, they're there. Their
running backs have been fantastic.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
They've got a great.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Quarterback in Lane Lesby who's been excellent as well. But
Gruver is the reigning regional champ and they got Bridge Sadderfield.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
He's got forty four total touchdowns on the year.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
That game is going to be spectacular. But I will
play the hits here and I will go with North Shore.
Ridgepoint For those who don't know, Ridge Point is the
most in my opinion and probably by the numbers too,
the most talent Leyden program in Texas high school football.
From a prospect perspective. They got three FBS commits on
their offensive line. They have got two Power five wide receivers.
(18:38):
They've got a defense that definitely loaded with dudes.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
They are loaded.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
And if it's ever going to happen for Rickle Favors
Ball Club, it's this year. But now they've got to
go through the team that has won this region seven
consecutive years in North Shore, who got back on the
good foot after losing Week eleven.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
They looked good last week.
Speaker 4 (18:57):
In their opener, and can they find a way through
quarterback killed Maryland's been great Daykue nine leads of resurgeon defense.
This is really the light the els. It's final boss
time here for Ridgepoint. We've had high hopes for them
in the past. If it's gonna happen, it's gotta happen
this week. On our podcast earlier yesterday, Matt Stepps said
that he kind of compared it to when long View
(19:19):
played in that twenty.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Eighteen title game.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
Yeah, and he just said he was like, if you
don't win it, you're gonna take it to your graves,
like this is this is the moment, Like this is
the time.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
It may not come around again.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
And so if a Ridgepoint is the real opportunity to
to kind of take to send shockwaves across the Houston area,
and I think that is gonna be a spectacular game
down there in Houston.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
By the way, I would offer up as a really
valid consolation runner up on the six A picks if
you ever to choose it, how about North forty Walks,
the hatch he or in these parts Dripping Springs and
Harlan Oh.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
I think I think it's a loaded slate. Absolutely, You're
exactly right. I think Dripping Springs and Harland has an
opportunity be fantastic. Carlin is one of those teams from
San Antonio. They do have a loss, but that is
a forfeit loss. They are undefeated on the field this
year taking on Dripping Springs team that's obviously you.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
Know, you know, has tons of confidence right now.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
And then you're right North Bourni and Wasahatchie expect points.
I mean, the real the real matchup here is that
North Brny offense with quarterback Legend Day of the New
Ohio State commit taking on this outstanding Wassa Hachie defense
led by Jake Wan Snell, the most recent A and.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
M commit at the safety spot. That will be the.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
Strength on strength, good on good like we're getting a
good part. I mean, next week's Thanksgiving and that's when
you know that the high school football is really heating up.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Yeah, no doubt about it.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
We get ready for it this week and and the
show now has moved to Saturday, right Texas for ball
tonight Ewan Pickle wrapping up everything on Saturday night. That way,
all the games are in the books at that point
unless you get a you know, a midnight run or something.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Going on.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
Okay, hey listen, if there's here's a promise if there is,
if there's a game still going on when we're on
the air at ten thirty, we will just give you
play by play.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Well we'll go into radio mode, we'll just.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
Kind of give you play by play of whatever game
is going on.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
But yeah, ten thirty pm.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
Wherever you stream Texas football tonight, we'll have highlights and
updated brackets from from all across the state.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
You remember we did that a couple of years ago,
that Salina and a game I think it went four
overtimes or whatever, and we went live to it and
we're actually calling the field goal there on the score.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:20):
That was Yeah, that was fun. I remember that. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
I was like, for some reason we went on the
air and then like that that game had gone into
the you know, into the into the night and.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Finally wrapped up while you were on the air.
Speaker 6 (21:31):
But that was good.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Tellersion, Yeah, no doubt about it.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
Hey, TEP, thanks for the time, and uh we'll look
forward to next week.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
I'm looking forward to it as well. Bye, guys.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
All right, that's great.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Chapper Editor in chief Dave Campbell's Texas Football Magazine so yeah,
there's the uh uh, the look, and there are some
great second round matchups.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
How about Thursday night?
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Thursday night, h Vandergriff at home again, No, at Bobcat.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
In San Marc's excuse me?
Speaker 3 (22:03):
On on Thursday night, Vandergriff taking on brand Eyes from
San Antonio. That's a Bobcats Stadium. They're in San Marcus
seven o'clock. That'll be televised live on KBV. Oh so
there will be that and then they will televise live
on Friday.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
What was the other game he told me they were
doing that. Roger told me they were doing I'll get
it from him.
Speaker 7 (22:28):
By the way, speaking of Vandergriff, while you look, you know,
I know.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
What it is.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
Okay, it's Georgetown and Frisco lone Star, number two in
the state, and that's in Georgetown on Friday night at
seven because.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
They won the.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Flip and so Georgetown is hosting Frisco Loan Star, which
will make the two hundred mile ride all the way
down for that area round playoff game.
Speaker 7 (22:48):
About that, yeah, yeah, By the way, I sayk vander
Griff that the bracket does open for them a little
bit after the win over west Lake, But lurking potentially
two rounds away is a rematch with Dripping Springs.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Yeah, that be cool if it was a rematch of
the season. They've done that before. They've done that before
they met the quarterfinals, after meeting in the season opener.
I will also say this, and I don't know if
how much longer their playoff run will go. I think
it will definitely extend beyond this week. But a tip
of the cap to John Walsh and getting it done
at San Marcus. When he went down there, he had
(23:20):
to roll up his sleeves and there was a lot
of work to do and there was some player players
who became ineligible and they went through a lot and
he has now flipped it down there and they won
their by district game and they're they're playing Edinburgh and
so it's certainly a winnable game for them as they
(23:43):
play Edinburgh and they're gonna play them in Corpus Christy
and that's Saturday afternoon at one o'clock.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Computer likes San Marcus.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Yeah, yeah, so I'd say that it'd be interesting if
they wind up playing Vandergriff, because they have played Vandergrift
before in the playoffs. If they wind up playing them
in round number three. All right, we got more coming
up when we continue on thirteen under the zone of
the Irradio app.
Control, there's a deceiver and believers.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
And in between that seemed how no place to go.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
The iconic Willie Nelson here on the Texan Tuesday Here,
I'm thirteen under the zone.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Glad to have you with us. Craig Way alongside the.
Speaker 3 (00:27):
Producer Jay Carman, who's also the play by play voice
of the Bass Drop Bears, and they have their area
around playoff game up in Belton at Mary hardin Baylor
on Saturday afternoon against a surprising Waco University team afore
beating one there, so I know you're.
Speaker 2 (00:47):
Looking forward to that. So as we talk football.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Greg Tepper is the editor in chief of Dave Campis,
Texas Football Magazine.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
He joins us, now, all.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Right, Tap, I'm you know how we always give each
other like three games to choose from. I'm going to
open this segment by asking you which was the most
surprising development of the football weekend?
Speaker 1 (01:08):
A that.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
Waco U knocked off Belleville. Excuse me, not Bellville for
Ben Marshall. I said Melville for Ben Marshall. A that
that B that A and M spotted South Carolina thirty
to three half time lead. Don't need to come back
and win or c that Texas State strum not only
(01:33):
be but strum the Southern miss team that did not
have a conference loss, and now all of a sudden,
the Bobcats are two bottom feet or victories away from
being Bowl eligible.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
What's the most surprising of those three to use?
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Yeah, all three kind of came as a as a shock.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
I think the answer is probably A and M simply
because that may in fact be and I don't know
the last time we've seen this, That may in fact
be the worst half of football.
Speaker 5 (02:01):
That we have seen a football team play this season
at any level.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
Followed by the best half of football.
Speaker 5 (02:08):
Anybody ever seen.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
It looked like the the the complete and utter one
eighty that that game took.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
I meant at at you.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Know, at halftime, at thirty to three, you are thinking, boy,
there's a chance Biscuits really ugly because the.
Speaker 6 (02:22):
Way the way that it.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
Was happening, where anem was just getting their rear kicked
up front by South Carolina and Marcel Reid couldn't find
a receiver.
Speaker 6 (02:33):
It looked helpless.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
And then suddenly they come out of halftime.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
And look unstoppable, look like the con team that we've
seen all yelling and I thought that that was their
best half of football and they needed every bit of it.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
It was that was the.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
One that shocked me, because it was not just how
terrible they looked in the beginning, but how quite frankly
unbeatable they looked in the second half in consecutive thirty
minute increments.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
I don't know if I've ever.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
Seen a team flipp a switch that aggressively like the
agg you did on Saturday.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Yeah, no doubt about it. Greg Tepper is the editor
in chief of Dave Campbell's Texas Football magazine. So let
me ask you this step.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
If you can only have one, only one of these
two gets invited to New York for the Heisman? Is
that Marcel Reader? Is it Jacob Rodriguez, the Texas tech linebacker.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
I think it's probably Marcel Reid what he's been able
to do, because because you and I actually in the
offseason we were talking on this very program and talking
about how this felt like your opinion on A and
M would go as Marcel Reid goes, and certainly he
has been remarkable for them, and we talked about how
this this year was a referendum on Colin Pline, the
(03:44):
offensive coordinator that's obviously gone pretty well for him as well. Now,
Jacob Rodriguez has obviously been fantastic. I just saw actually
a stat online that if Jacob Rodriguez was a team,
he would have the fifth most four turnovers in college
football this year. He has been remarkable, But I also
(04:05):
think that.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
There is an argument to be made.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
That he may not even be the best player on
his own defense and he consider what David Bailey has
been able to do, I think that is it that
they would probably split the vote there in my opinion.
So for me, Marcel Reed has been so singular to
A and them's success, whereas Jacob Rodriguez has obviously has
been spectacular. But I think that he's got a guy
up front off the edge who is helping him out
(04:27):
significantly as well. I would probably lean towards Reed just
based on the way that Heisman voting tends to go.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
On the Dave Campill's Texas Football Division one FPS power poll,
Texas holds onto its three spot and the comment there
there was there was a path for a three lost
Texas to reach a college football player, but not one
where the long Worns lost by four possessions in November. Now,
I know some will say, hey, it's a fourteen to
ten game in the fourth quarter, but Bill Parcells.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Will say you are, which your record says you are.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
He got away in the fake fun had a lot
to do with that as well am I writing and
what I've said, A, they have to win the remaining
two games, and B there's one to be some chaos
because the Oklahoma winver Alabama did not help Texas once
the Long Orange Laws lost that game on Saturday night.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Yeah, it's strange that now you're exactly right. I think
Texas is in a position where they need to win
out and get some help because an invite to the
SEC Championship game outreach now that they will not have
that ability to give people one more kind of.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Look at them.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
And furthermore, it does feel like it's getting crowded up
there as far as teams that could get in there.
In fact, Mike Craven wrote an article just today on
Texas football dot Com about how there's a possibility and
Texas gets four teams in the College Football playoffs.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
You know, if you consider, you know, let's just say.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
That that Texas Tech wins the Big Twelve, Well, they
would be in the playoff A and M. We we've
already penciled them in to the playoffs. North Texas looks
like they could absolutely be the G five representative and
then getting out get a bid to the dance, and then.
Speaker 6 (05:59):
You add in you add in Sneagally, SMU can take
control of their own destiny. SMU can absolutely win the
ACC if they win the rest of their games and
then beat Georgia Tech presumably and.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Then the ACC tiing. I mean this is.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
There's a universe there where we.
Speaker 4 (06:18):
Get four Texas teams in there that aren't the University
of Texas, and so I think that if.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
You're a Longhorn fan, obviously.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
You want to go out there and win the last
two games. That is imperative. I mean, one more loss
obviously would disqualify them. But I also think that you're
going to need to start rooting for.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Some things to go a little bit of pair shapes
and for for.
Speaker 5 (06:35):
Some teams, maybe even like.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
A you know, you don't want.
Speaker 4 (06:38):
To root for injury, but we've seen in the past
that the committee will consider injuries and player availability in
something like that. If one of the teams were to
lose one of their key players. That is the kind
of thing that Texas at this point, it's going to be,
it's going to be a bank shot now for for Texas.
Speaker 5 (06:52):
To get in. You know, there was the universe.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
In which if they had beaten they won against.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
Georgia you know this past week, that they would have
had an opportun co unity to you know, or even
just played.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
A closer game.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Now it feels like they're going to need a number
of things to go right in addition to them, you know,
of course winning their final two games.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
How cool would it be, since you and I are
both Texas high school football nerds, for SMU to play
Georgia Tech. When you've got two quarterbacks who have won
state championships in in Kevin Jennings for SMU and obviously
Haines King for Georgia Tech, King being from Longview and
Jennings being from South O'kcliff.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
I mean, yeah, you could have a situation in which
you could have multiple, multiple you know, quarterback, you know,
multiple players in the in the college football Playoff who
are representing Texas.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
High school football teams. I mean, I think that's that's
exactly it.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
And so yeah, what a the story Georgia Tech is
with Haines King kind of and they they are a
team that just finds a way to win. But you're right,
I think that that speaks to that we just actually
just put the finishing touches.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
On our annual recruiting.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
That just speaks to the depth and the range of
Texas high school football talent as it's spread across the nation.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
You know, everywhere you.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
Look, it seems like somebody's got a guy who is
won at the highest level here in Texas that is
now kind of a prerequisite for succeeding at that college level.
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Okay, I got to ask you about these two teams
that before we move on to high school, and that's
Rice in Texas State. The owls are five and five,
and like you said that, the blurb says decided Rice
can clinch a bull birth by winning women the last two.
So you think all great and said the problem is
those two games are in South Florida, North Texas, so
might be difficult regardless of what happens this first year.
(08:39):
I think with everything that with the coaching change is
pretty impressive. To see what's going on in Houston.
Speaker 4 (08:45):
Yeah, I think for Scott Abell you know, obviously, look,
he's not interested you talk with him, he's not interested
in moral victories. But at the same time, I think
you look at what Rice has been able to do.
They've already exceeded expectations. They've already kind of shown that
they can be a team to be reckoned with you
don't want to play. And furthermore, I think that more importantly,
they have identified an identity. You know, this is a
(09:06):
team that that is able to get the you know,
get it going on the ground. This is one of
the better rushing attacks in all of in all of
college football.
Speaker 5 (09:16):
You know, they average two hundred and eleven yards per.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Game on the ground.
Speaker 4 (09:20):
This is a team you know that's that's more than
tex and Tech does, That's more than BYU does. I mean,
this is a team that that that has established an identity,
which I think if you were to be critical of
the previous administration.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
With Mike Bloombrin that they were not able to establish
that identity.
Speaker 4 (09:36):
They have a player identity, and I think that for Rice,
that is that is moving forward. Certainly, whether or not
it ends in a bowl game, I.
Speaker 5 (09:43):
Will say this that if they're.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
They don't have enough bowl teams, right, which does happen?
I believe they go to APR and I'm not sure
anybody in America is a better APR than Rice. So like,
maybe keep those pats. Don't put the point the pads
just yet.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
If you guys go five and seven, yeah, it's good.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
It's a good point there are they being five and
so they've done it with they could certainly do it.
And then with regard to Texas State, with everything GJ.
Kenny's program has been through year this year, injuries and
inconsistencies and heartbreaking overtime losses and all that stuff, for
them to go out and deliver a knockout punch to
the team leading the West Division, the Sun Belt, Southern
(10:19):
miss all of a sudden, there's a light at the
end of the tunnel. They got Ulm and they've got
South Alabama, two of the other bottom feeders along with
them in the West. They got a chance to slip
in the back door and wind up being a bolt
team after all.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
You know, for a season, this has kind of been
such a I don't know how GJ. Kenny is going
to judge this season, and obviously how it finishes will
go a long way but when you consider how it
started where they go out there and they had no
problem with Eastern Michigans. Did they go on the road
to Utsa and they beat Utsa? We were talking about
what a list that was for that program. Well, you know,
(10:56):
since then, they have lost six of their like they
don't go and that's that's I missed game. They've lost
six of their last seven. They only win has been
against you know, woefull FCS Nickels State. Now to go
on the road, and you're exactly right to not just
beat Southern mess but to really dominate them on the road. Suddenly,
you know, you talk about life, Uh, this is the
(11:18):
program that they're you know, they're gonna be favored in
their final two games, and that feels like for Texas State,
obviously that.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Would be huge to make another goal game.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
That's something that as far as program, uh you know,
consistency and program.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
Momentum you want to have.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
But furthermore, I would also say that if you are GJ.
Kinney and perhaps you are looking around at other potential
openings that they're going to come uh in Tochingba, you know,
finding a way to kind of put pull this thing
out of the ditch when.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
All have seemed lost.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
I think that really, uh, you know, bodes well.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
For DJ Kinney if he were to have some wandering
eyes and be want to be considered for other positions.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
So yeah, I think for Texas State, that's that's that's
a rather shocking result that I think flew under the radar,
maybe because we were so caught up with A and
M crazy comeback or Texas playing between the hedges.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Yeah, all right, Greg tempers with us here from Dave
Camill's Texas Football Magazine. Okay, my mom used to say,
a slip of the tongue is no fault to the mind.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Actually kind of is really that.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
I didn't want to argue with her about that when
I when I mentioned the Waco you upset of Fort
Ben Marshall, I said Belleville because I was also thinking
about the other supercent tex upset, China Spring beating Belleville.
Are they on equal planes with for beating ones on
this deal?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
How did you evaluate those?
Speaker 4 (12:37):
Yeah, it's a it's a It was a wild first
week of the playoffs. You know, we had twenty two
teams that finished and fourth place in their district win
a first round game. Now, some of those we could
have seen coming where they finished fourth in a really
really good district, right and maybe the team that they
were matched up with in by district, you know, was.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
The product of a week or district, so to speak.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
But there other ones that you mentioned, like, you know,
like like China Spring beating Belleville. That is downright shopping.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I mean, that's one that that nobody necessarily had on.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Your bage car.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
I'll give you another one that really shook up.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Things around here, Fluegerville Weiss going to La Port and
knocking off Laport. That was a team that we bought
had state championship aspirations, but Wis figured things out and
got things going in a big way. They switched things
up defensively in the second half and.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Really got to go.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
And now suddenly you start saying, well why not Weiss,
you know, within their own district.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
It was it was.
Speaker 4 (13:31):
A bizarre not a bizarre week, but it was a
strange week.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
And you're right, Waco. You has been a team that
has has been very up and down.
Speaker 4 (13:40):
When they're up, the talent they have is is is
really really hard to match. But it hasn't always been
that consistent. A lot of what's gonna you know, obviously
on Friday night they were up and they were playing fantastic.
Can they do it again against a high powered bastrip
team that that certainly is no stranger to to putting
up to light up the scoreboard?
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Yeah, uh, no doubt about it. Okay boy?
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Uh, Like I said, you and you and your cohort
Ashley Pickle have used the term box office. I mean, uh,
Vandergriff Westlake lived up to every single bit of the
billing and then some didn't it.
Speaker 7 (14:16):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Sometimes the game of the week is just the game
of the week, you know what I mean? Like U,
Sometimes my job is easy, is like, watch this game.
It's great. And then it was.
Speaker 4 (14:25):
And it was also kind of a real return to
form I think for both of these teams and the
way that they have wanted to play, which is you know, look,
it's no secret that both Tony Salad are the head
coach at Westlake and Drew Standards head coach of and
they are defensive high their defense first. We will figure
out the offense later, the defense and what comes first.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
And that's what this game was.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
It was.
Speaker 4 (14:44):
It was a real battle of wills and an opportunity
for both teams to to really flex UH as far
as their defenses are concerned. And I think that what
you saw was Vandergrift having just a little bit extra
UH there and then obviously having any bound kicker there
at the end certainly helps. But this was exactly what
we thought. It was two extremely eavenly matched teams.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
That ended up, you know, going down to the wire.
Speaker 4 (15:07):
What I found remarkable and I hope that Westlake fans,
who are obviously still licking their wounds, will take.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
This as some small solace.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
But this is the first time that Westlake has lost
consecutive games in the same season since twenty thirteen. I
think about that they have not had a two game
losing streak. I mean it had like, obviously, you lose
that a two game losing streak if you consider the
fact that they lost a state championship.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
Game last year and then lost their opener this year.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
But when you consider in the same season to they
haven't lost two consecutive games in a decade.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
I think that speaks to the excellence.
Speaker 4 (15:39):
In the pedigree of this west Lake program. I know
they're smarting right now, but credit to what the Vandergrift.
And by the way, I think that bracket really opens
up for Vandergrift suddenly. And now you're talking about them
in big picture terms as far as how far they
can go.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Yeah, good point. Here, as we've visited with Greg Tapper.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
Okay, here, we're back to doing the meanest thing we
do each other, and that is to give you three
games to choose from.
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Now, you know, it's you know, it's funny.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
I'm sorry to interrupt, but like now it's just it's
even meaner like each week. Now it's like progressively meaner.
You know, it's it's it's mean when we do it
in the week four, when you do it in the
area around it is torture.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
Then they get then they get more cruel. I think
as we go forward, I think I think it does. Okay,
all right, so yeah, I'm not gonna waste any time
with this in terms of uh, you know, one of
the ones to choose from. You can choose from these
three games. You can either be at, uh, the North
(16:39):
Shore Ridge Point game.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
You knew I was gonna mention that. You know I
was gonna mention North short Ridge Point. It makes all
a sense in the world to mention North Shore and Ridgepoint.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
Uh So it was either mean North Short Ridge Point
is is choice number one. Choice number two is Bay
City lb J okay in one.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
So that's that's choice number two.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
And then the third and final choice that you have
to make between those three would be in class to A.
The choice is going to be Wink and Groover.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
Oh man see LBJ and BA City is a real
balloer's game, because that's the one that's like.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Those are two.
Speaker 4 (17:27):
Teams that I think are are kind of flying under
the radar of are sneaky good. I think LBJ LBJ
kind of suffers from South oaklist disease. And what I
mean by that is that they play a very difficult
non district schedule.
Speaker 6 (17:39):
Right and then they go and they get.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
Into district play, and with all due respect, they're just
a lot better than all the teams in their district.
So they don't really play an interesting game for two months,
and now suddenly they're back and they are dangerous. That
gud is fascinating. I love Lincoln Groover because you want
to talk about for Wink being so close and feeling
like they like this is the year, this is year
for each of the last six consecutive years. Maybe it is,
(18:03):
I mean to me and for Sean, they're there. Their
running backs have been fantastic.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
They've got a great.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Quarterback in Lane Lesby who's been excellent as well. But
Gruver is the reigning regional champ and they got Bridge Sadderfield.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
He's got forty four total touchdowns on the year.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
That game is going to be spectacular. But I will
play the hits here and I will go with North Shore.
Ridgepoint For those who don't know, Ridge Point is the
most in my opinion and probably by the numbers too,
the most talent Leyden program in Texas high school football.
From a prospect perspective. They got three FBS commits on
their offensive line. They have got two Power five wide receivers.
(18:38):
They've got a defense that definitely loaded with dudes.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
They are loaded.
Speaker 4 (18:41):
And if it's ever going to happen for Rickle Favors
Ball Club, it's this year. But now they've got to
go through the team that has won this region seven
consecutive years in North Shore, who got back on the
good foot after losing Week eleven.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
They looked good last week.
Speaker 4 (18:57):
In their opener, and can they find a way through
quarterback killed Maryland's been great Daykue nine leads of resurgeon defense.
This is really the light the els. It's final boss
time here for Ridgepoint. We've had high hopes for them
in the past. If it's gonna happen, it's gotta happen
this week. On our podcast earlier yesterday, Matt Stepps said
that he kind of compared it to when long View
(19:19):
played in that twenty.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Eighteen title game.
Speaker 4 (19:21):
Yeah, and he just said he was like, if you
don't win it, you're gonna take it to your graves,
like this is this is the moment, Like this is
the time.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
It may not come around again.
Speaker 4 (19:29):
And so if a Ridgepoint is the real opportunity to
to kind of take to send shockwaves across the Houston area,
and I think that is gonna be a spectacular game
down there in Houston.
Speaker 3 (19:39):
By the way, I would offer up as a really
valid consolation runner up on the six A picks if
you ever to choose it, how about North forty Walks,
the hatch he or in these parts Dripping Springs and
Harlan Oh.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
I think I think it's a loaded slate. Absolutely, You're
exactly right. I think Dripping Springs and Harland has an
opportunity be fantastic. Carlin is one of those teams from
San Antonio. They do have a loss, but that is
a forfeit loss. They are undefeated on the field this
year taking on Dripping Springs team that's obviously you.
Speaker 5 (20:08):
Know, you know, has tons of confidence right now.
Speaker 4 (20:12):
And then you're right North Bourni and Wasahatchie expect points.
I mean, the real the real matchup here is that
North Brny offense with quarterback Legend Day of the New
Ohio State commit taking on this outstanding Wassa Hachie defense
led by Jake Wan Snell, the most recent A and.
Speaker 1 (20:27):
M commit at the safety spot. That will be the.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
Strength on strength, good on good like we're getting a
good part. I mean, next week's Thanksgiving and that's when
you know that the high school football is really heating up.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Yeah, no doubt about it.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
We get ready for it this week and and the
show now has moved to Saturday, right Texas for ball
tonight Ewan Pickle wrapping up everything on Saturday night. That way,
all the games are in the books at that point
unless you get a you know, a midnight run or something.
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Going on.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
Okay, hey listen, if there's here's a promise if there is,
if there's a game still going on when we're on
the air at ten thirty, we will just give you
play by play.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
Well we'll go into radio mode, we'll just.
Speaker 5 (21:03):
Kind of give you play by play of whatever game
is going on.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
But yeah, ten thirty pm.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
Wherever you stream Texas football tonight, we'll have highlights and
updated brackets from from all across the state.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
You remember we did that a couple of years ago,
that Salina and a game I think it went four
overtimes or whatever, and we went live to it and
we're actually calling the field goal there on the score.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (21:20):
That was Yeah, that was fun. I remember that. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:23):
I was like, for some reason we went on the
air and then like that that game had gone into
the you know, into the into the night and.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Finally wrapped up while you were on the air.
Speaker 6 (21:31):
But that was good.
Speaker 2 (21:32):
Tellersion, Yeah, no doubt about it.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
Hey, TEP, thanks for the time, and uh we'll look
forward to next week.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
I'm looking forward to it as well. Bye, guys.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
All right, that's great.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
Chapper Editor in chief Dave Campbell's Texas Football Magazine so yeah,
there's the uh uh, the look, and there are some
great second round matchups.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
How about Thursday night?
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Thursday night, h Vandergriff at home again, No, at Bobcat.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
In San Marc's excuse me?
Speaker 3 (22:03):
On on Thursday night, Vandergriff taking on brand Eyes from
San Antonio. That's a Bobcats Stadium. They're in San Marcus
seven o'clock. That'll be televised live on KBV. Oh so
there will be that and then they will televise live
on Friday.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
What was the other game he told me they were
doing that. Roger told me they were doing I'll get
it from him.
Speaker 7 (22:28):
By the way, speaking of Vandergriff, while you look, you know,
I know.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
What it is.
Speaker 3 (22:32):
Okay, it's Georgetown and Frisco lone Star, number two in
the state, and that's in Georgetown on Friday night at
seven because.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
They won the.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
Flip and so Georgetown is hosting Frisco Loan Star, which
will make the two hundred mile ride all the way
down for that area round playoff game.
Speaker 7 (22:48):
About that, yeah, yeah, By the way, I sayk vander
Griff that the bracket does open for them a little
bit after the win over west Lake, But lurking potentially
two rounds away is a rematch with Dripping Springs.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
Yeah, that be cool if it was a rematch of
the season. They've done that before. They've done that before
they met the quarterfinals, after meeting in the season opener.
I will also say this, and I don't know if
how much longer their playoff run will go. I think
it will definitely extend beyond this week. But a tip
of the cap to John Walsh and getting it done
at San Marcus. When he went down there, he had
(23:20):
to roll up his sleeves and there was a lot
of work to do and there was some player players
who became ineligible and they went through a lot and
he has now flipped it down there and they won
their by district game and they're they're playing Edinburgh and
so it's certainly a winnable game for them as they
(23:43):
play Edinburgh and they're gonna play them in Corpus Christy
and that's Saturday afternoon at one o'clock.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Computer likes San Marcus.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
Yeah, yeah, so I'd say that it'd be interesting if
they wind up playing Vandergriff, because they have played Vandergrift
before in the playoffs. If they wind up playing them
in round number three. All right, we got more coming
up when we continue on thirteen under the zone of
the Irradio app.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
