(02:30):
this because there was so much going on with Spitgate
twenty twenty five involving Dak Prescott and Jalen Carter.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
There was a game you know a couple of.
Speaker 5 (02:40):
Guys pretending to be uh hoktua. But it is a
football Friday. It is a Friday. I got to point
that out here.
Speaker 6 (02:49):
Friday Friday, Friday, Friday Day, except football Friday.
Speaker 4 (03:01):

Speaker 1 (03:11):

He's chosen.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Friday night is a football Friday, Football Friday. Catch it
it Friday on the show.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
Everybody's feeling it. We got another game to play with
coming up later on tonight.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Round Up.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
So there is a.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
Lot going on here. So there is a tell me
if you've heard this before, all right, Christian McCaffrey has
been added added to the injury report with a caffe Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Yeah, it's just uh well, I mean, we we know
where to go to look for updates. I mean, do
you need to maybe provide some background information of what's
going on in Christian McCaffrey's life that would have led
to this?
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Jonas, I feel I feel uncomfortable doing that now I
got to get off the video of our set us
interesting interesting stretching routines.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
That made sometimes you got to pop that that part
of your body back into place obviously, so you know,
I guess.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
You're talking to.
Speaker 5 (04:52):
But uh yeah, let me go ahead and take a
look here, see if there's any uh. But the point
is this was not this was not anything that was new. Well, no,
this like everything was fine, Like he took part like
in practices, and then all of a sudden, as he
was you know, warming up and going through the media availability,
(05:12):
then he was nowhere to be found afterwards, and something
popped up with his calf. Now he's been added to
the injury report, and this just feels eerily similar to
what happened last year, where the expectation was he's going
to play. They opened up the year on Monday Night football,
and then all of a sudden, oh, he's just not
there and he's going to deal with this and miss
majority of the season. It just hasn't been able to
(05:35):
stay healthy, which has been the problem for the Niners.
It was the problem last year, and then you got
the same and you got the same issue with you know,
with the New York Jets, who find out, you know,
maybe their best offensive lineman, Elijah Vera Tucker, he's gone
torn triceps.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
It's like.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
The differences is the Jets have obviously not had a
history of success, and and you know clearly that the
forty nine ers have. What concerns me the most about
the forty nine ers it just it feels like and
maybe it's because they've been so consistently successful, with the
exception of last year, that that's part of it. Like
(06:13):
we don't throw them into the conversation as much because
we just expect them to be a team that wins
today as a playoff team. But I've got some big
time concerns and reservations. I mean, I'll start by saying this,
did you guys realize brock perty wasn't in the top
one hundred?
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Really, go look it up.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
I didn't keep up with the top one hundred, but
I mean that wouldn't be up.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Well, the only me the only reason I bring that
up of OAR is because it's voted on by the players.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
Yeah, and so if the players in the.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
League don't view brock Purty as a guy who's in
that top one hundred, and I'm not saying that you know,
all thirty thirty two quarterbacks are going to be or
maybe I just I feel like, you know, he's gotten paid.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
A lot of players. That's a lot of players, and
he did get paid.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
He's gotten paid now, so there's the expectation. I think
that goes along with it. But I think I think
you get an idea from his peers about what he
is or what he isn't And so if they don't
have Christian McCaffrey, we kind of look at that team
a bit different, do we not yet? And I think
that's what we said.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
That last year.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Didn't you say that last year he was going to
have an opportunity to prove that he deserved the money
that they were going to pay him when they paid him,
by showing he could still be competitive and win without having,
you know, having Christian McCaffrey and others, and Trent Williams
was out as well. I've said it. I hate to
be the one that says I told y'all so, and listen,
(07:35):
it's still early. I'm just not high on the Niners.
I'm not high on them. I feel like there's too
many question marks that surround this current team and I
have to see it, but I'll say this, I wasn't
very high on Dallas either, and I got to give
credit where credit is due, if only for one thing
(07:58):
that Dallas improved on or looked efficient and looked good.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Offensively, they look good. They look good, and so shots
out to Brian Schottenheimer.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
I have at times been a critic, but I do
give I definitely give props where props are due. He
coached a hell of a game. He coached. He kept
the best team in the NFC and one of the
top teams, the returning Super Bowl team. He kept them
off balanced. They couldn't figure it out too much. And
(08:30):
so I don't know the reason why I guess I
went so in depth in saying that is maybe maybe
because of the way the coaching is done in San Francisco.
Maybe putting them in the right positions and schematically making
sure that his guys can maximize what it is that
(08:50):
they're they're good at doing, even if they don't have
Christian McCaffrey could be the difference. I just don't feel
confident that that's what it's going to be that place.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
How many people here picked the Niners to win the
West or pick the Niners to be a playoff team
because I have a I'd like to ask a question here. Well,
you know what I mean, because that was before this
injury came out, and if we're already starting the season
with that, like I feel like, based upon further review,
(09:23):
maybe we.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
San Francisco third on my list for finishing in the
in the West.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
It sticks.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
We already gave him lorena, But thank you, thank you.
I appreciate the effect.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
Like the Jets, the Elijah Verra Tucker, I mean the
Jets I had I had last So just nothing really
to change there. That's just more confirmation.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Than it knocks locks. Dang, I had New England lower
than the Jets. Yeah you did? Problem?
Speaker 3 (09:57):
Had them fourth?
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Yeah? Problem? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Is this change your outlook on the uh Patriots Jets?
Speaker 4 (10:05):
No?
Speaker 3 (10:07):
At what point during the season, once the Patriots continue
to start winning and then and the Jets maybe struggle
a bit. But as that division becomes more clear, is
it after like week four or five? Is it after
week nine or ten? Like, at what point we'd be like, oh, yeah,
maybe I missed on that one. I don't think Patriots
fans want to know I got I got some people like,
(10:28):
why is Leva not a Cots fan?
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Hey, listen, I got some bad news for you. So
go ahead and get a bullet chatter. I'll tell you
what I'm what I'm gonna tell you. You're finish. And
last is that Joe? Is that Joe Paul?
Speaker 4 (10:42):
No, that's not New York.
Speaker 5 (10:43):
That's bastard.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
Get get a bullet chatter. Get him out of here. No,
that's that's that's Brooklyn.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Hey, hey, forget about it, Like, Hey, get him out
of there?
Speaker 5 (10:56):
Kay, what is it ticket doing?
Speaker 4 (10:58):
They can't? What do you get him out of it?
So that's that's that's more. That's that's New York. But
get your chatta.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
And now how they say clam chadda clam clam chatta
like it's Boston's accents are wow? Crazy where? But you
know what what isn't wild crazy where? It is to
think that they're going to finish last in their division.
And I think that, Wow, Mike Rabel is a hell
of a hire, and I think he will have them
(11:29):
going in the right direction. I love the young running back.
I am on record as saying that I really like
this young running back out of out of Ohio State
and he could end up being like the guy that
is a feature guy that people you know, pay attention to,
like b Jhon Robinson.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
Type of of you know, hype.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
He could he could generate with oh my gosh, he's
he's so good. But with that being said, I still
think this is a work in progress. It's a work
in progress, and I say it's at least going to
take one solid year of trying to figure out who's
who and what's what with that team before they become
(12:11):
more of a competitive team. So it's not that it's
Mike Rabel isn't good enough or capable enough to change
them into a better team within this small amount of time.
I just think that I just don't think that this
year is that year for them, And I could be wrong,
Obviously I could be wrong, but I just I feel
pretty confident in saying there's a few teams that I'm
(12:32):
just not high on.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
The Patriots aren't even on my radar to be high.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
On, you know, speaking of the Patriots, I don't know
if you saw this report that was out from John
Middlecoff who said that Bill Belichick has banned Patriots scouts
from attending North Carolina practices oh so that's why. That's
why I mentioned yesterday little wit right crazy. I can't
(12:56):
imagine Belichick will be there for the statue unveiling because
I don't think he's over how that whole thing broke
down between him and New England and Robert Kraft. But
if this is true, that's kind of a bad look
for Belichick. No, because like to tell players who are
looking to maybe get drafted in the NFL that guys
can't come see them work or see them in practice
(13:20):
because of whatever acts, You've got to grind with your
ax and look.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
At it a little different. Maybe they just want to
He wants enough to come through him. He's like all
these other thirty one other NFL teams. They can come
and watch. But if you want, if you're if you're
in New England and you went an inful one with
our players, you got to come through me. You got
to come through me first.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Or my girlfriend WHOA, that didn't come out the right way?
Rewind ate that, Yeah, that did not That's not what
I meant. That didn't mean it that the way that
it came came across, I don't know. I mean after
(14:04):
the picture that posted showing the way she was looking
at Randy Moss.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
I mean, doesn't seem far.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
Oh really is that? Was that making the rounds?
Speaker 4 (14:15):
That is making the rounds? You haven't seen that? Why
is it?
Speaker 5 (14:18):
Why is it open season on Bill Belichick? Man? It's
one game, all right? You know, I don't.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
Understand it's pretty bad? Was good?
Speaker 5 (14:28):
I mean, you know, there's how he got blown out
in his first game as an NFL coach. Too things
turned around. You know, maybe they'll they'll bounce back and
get it together. You know, Damn week one will come
up and bite you in the ass from time to time.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
How bad will it get for Bill Belichick?
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Like his legacy obviously is his legacy in a lot
of ways, it's solidified. But after the way I read
and saw the reactions to him, the visceral reactions towards
who he is as not only a coach but as
a person. Just how many shots and how many how
(15:07):
many like really really like low blows were taken on him?
How bad does this impact him? I mean, I'm just
curious how bad does it impact him? If this is
a very poor tenure for him at UNC, I feel
like it could be worse than, maybe than what maybe
(15:30):
anticipated like if I do well, I do well, and
we will we'll keep going and maybe I'll come back
to the NFL. But this could do in a way,
a lot of ways, this could do a lot more
damage to Bill Belichick than good. I just I came
away feeling kind of like I kind of felt bad
(15:50):
for him a little bit.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
Man, I don't know. I think that maybe if it
goes this, if it goes sideways North Carolina, It'll take
some time, but ultimately people are gonna remember him for
the New England years, like, and they're not going to
remember him. It's like you, I.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Don't know, man, because it's so easy to just go
and be like, if he doesn't get Tom Brady, he's
not what he is, it doesn't happen the way that
it happens. He was only good with Tom Brady. He
wasn't good before and he wasn't good after.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
But but do you remember do you remember Emitt Smith
as a cardinal or you remember who was a cowboy?
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Yeah, but.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
That's very very it's very different. Like a running back
isn't going to impact a team the way a quarterback
or a coach is, especially a coach, because you can Actually,
you set coaches higher.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
On the total pole than even quarterbacks.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
So if you're the reason why a team is winning,
I mean listen, if it's not for Bill Belichick coaching
him the way he's coaching him, tom Brady doesn't develop
into the pro player that he into, or whoever it
was that developed them. But give credit to Bill Belichick
for bringing in the person whoever it is that coached
(17:08):
them the way that they did and led to him
becoming a player that he did. Even if Tom Brady
did it on his own with somebody else, doesn't matter.
It was under Bill Belichick's watch. Do you think that
he gets the.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
Lean on that?
Speaker 5 (17:21):
Do you guys think that also part of this too,
because we mentioned you know, everybody's taking shots at Belichick
and there's jokes and you get Brett McMurphy just what
a tool going on social media. Oh it was twenty
four year old girlfriend, Like he's all horned up at
home watching her on the sidelines when you see all
that stuff. This is just in large part because Belichick
(17:41):
didn't play the game for all those years when he
was in New England, that he wasn't as accessible to
the media. He didn't give them what they wanted. He
didn't play along, and so now it's it's.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Their turning it back out of it.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
Yeah, why do we care?
Speaker 3 (17:54):
Like that's the power of the pen, that's the power
of the media. Like, if you're going to treat him poor,
they're gonna have their opportunity to get back at you.
And now people are taking their chance to get back
at because honestly, he never needed to handle the media
the way he did, did he If we're being honest
about it, like, you can be kind, you can be cordial,
you can still give some information. I mean, look at
(18:16):
Sean McVay. Sean McVay, who is one of the most
beloved one will probably have a media career when it's
all said and done. But also because of how he
handles the media. He gives them detailed information or buios
about players, what makes them tick, what makes them so good.
He'll talk about scheme, he'll talk about ball, you know,
and Belichick will do it from time to time. But
(18:39):
I'm saying like, there's different coaches who do it different ways,
and they still find a way of being able to
be successful yet talking to the media. So I just
I don't really care. I could almost cuss I could
give two craps about in all seriousness, like it doesn't matter,
Like this is their opportunity to get back if they
(19:00):
want to be petty, let him be petty. It says
just as much about them too, Like like Brett McMurphy
for making these jokes, it says just as much about him.
Speaker 5 (19:09):
I'm gonna stand by Belichick, all right, give me, give
me North Carolina to stand by.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Feels like he's busy right now.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
He's he's he's best friend Bo Brady is.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
I just feel like there's times in this show and
like Lee disappears, all of a sudden, the drops start
stop hitting. I don't know what it's like.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
It's almost like we're out in the field. He's playing
in the dome, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yeah, crazy, that's one way of putting it crazy.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
By the way, yeah, are on.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
A very very interesting tangent.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
What do you mean?
Speaker 4 (19:49):
What you mean?
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Well, where are you at right now?
Speaker 1 (19:52):
I'm go stay college, I know, but where at an
undisclosed location.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
I've noticed that I thought you were in a safe house.
Speaker 4 (20:01):
Yeah, something like that. I'm just saying, yeah, something.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Like that looks nice though, Yeah, it is nice, very nice.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
About this last night. This is how my travels been going.
Kind of got delayed and ended up sitting on the
plane next to a buddy I used to work with
at CBS. So I had a pretty good time. And
for whatever reason, I just I thought I knew what
a hotel were staying in, so I go to the
wrong hotel. That was the beginning of it. But the
(20:30):
guy at the front desk is really nice and he goes,
you know, you're not too far from here. You just
you can walk. You just go this way and once
you get to the demos, you go left. Well, I
think the problem was I didn't go the way I
should have went out of the hotel. So I'm like
wandering the streets of Des Moines night and I finally
get to the hotel, finally get all connected with everything,
and it was one of those deals where like everyone's out,
(20:53):
you know, because it's Thursday night. So it's kind of
like back in the old college days where if there
was a go at night for football player, a big
night was actually Thursday because they saw the data recover
on Friday in the game on Saturday. It wasn't always Saturdays,
like people think, oh, the football players are getting aught
them on Saturdays, depending on what the game is. Now tired,
some of those guys are. Sometimes it doesn't happen that way.
(21:14):
So anyway, it was, I was like trying to dodge
a duck and dodge and I get around like having
to go be too social in the middle of the night.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
I got a little too social last year.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
That's gonna say.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
It's it's not good.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
You look good, though, you look good. I see it.
You look fine.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I appreciate it, but it was not it ended bad.
It isn't it bad.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
It's just it took to.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
Not a happy ending. I get you.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
No, wasn't.
Speaker 5 (21:45):
I mean, if you need any support, I recommend the
home Depot.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Oh okay, tell me why the.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
Support of the home Depot. It's about time for pros
to source the whole job with one partner. Ask about
all they can do for you at the pro desk,
the Home Depot pro. It's about time, all right. So

of crazy. You could have gotten points at one point
day of the game with Texas. There's some really interesting
line movement. Excuse me, it would have been laying points
that Texas would favorite at one point in that game.
Then it swung back to Ohio State before it closed.
(24:24):
But I digress Alabama not showing up getting blown out
by Florida State that tanks some things, and unfortunately for
the Notre Dame Miami under which we had in that game,
it closed at fifty one and a half. However, we
took earlier in the week, so if you were riding
along with me, ended up hitting the under at the close,
(24:45):
but not when we had actually picked. So on the season,
we are three and four and I've got four more
for you. And by the way, we're not some of
those sissies who've got to go and find some other
obscure games somewhere else. I'm giving you the big games,
the games you're going to watch. There's none bigger than
Michigan heading to Norman, Oklahoma to take on the Sooners.
(25:06):
The Wolverines are getting five and a half points. Jonas,
keep me honest, this is still five and a half efforting. Okay,
usually Jonas is more up on this, but let me
just rave for a second about both new quarterbacks at
Michigan and Oklahoma for the Sooners John Matteir. The transfer
comes in looked fantastic in Week one, looks to bring
that uplifting I guess, momentum and really just playmaking ability
(25:30):
that the offense has been missing for the last couple
of years now. So Materier at quarterback for Oklahoma makes
all the difference. I think with Brent Venables now, I
want to say on the hot seat, but it really does
need a big season. And this is a team that's
been led by their defense, but I think they've got
something special and Matier at quarterback and the other side
a true freshman, the highly anticipated Bryce Underwood. Someone call
(25:53):
them the twelve million dollar man, which is the rumors
and reports of what he was paid to go to Michigan.
I don't care what he was paid. This young man
has it all. He's got a rocket for an arm,
he sees the field well, he can throw with touch.
I know it was New Mexico last week, and you
know people will say, I don't want to make too
much of it. Some of the throws he were making,
I don't care who it's against. Like it displayed all
(26:14):
the talent ability that he's got with that defense, that
rushing attack, that they've got a Michigan Give me the
five and a half points. Jonas is still five and
a half.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
At quick refresh, it is now four and a half
Michigan plus far.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
And that's why, because I think people are starting to
understand just how good this Michigan team can be with
underwooded quarterbacks. So go ahead take the four and a
half points. If you're really feeling spicy, money line, oh
tell you right now. Look out for these Wolverines with
Price Underwood at quarterback, staying between a battle and the
big ten and the acc We've got Illinois traveling down
(26:50):
to North Carolina to take on the Duke Blue Devils.
Duke giving three points at home to Illinois. Something seems
off about this. Do you smell that? Var you smell?
That smell was a little fishy. So was a little
fishy to me. But and here's the thing. If Illinois,
who's looked at as a top ten team somewhere in
(27:13):
the vicinity last time I looked, I would have thought
it would have been a bigger number. It smells off
to me. I was watching the tape on Darien Mensa,
the transfer quarterback at Duke. He's got the goods. There's
a reason why he left Tulane. Duke was excited about
getting him. He's been able to bring and kind of
uplift a little bit many ideas in that defense at
Duke is gonna be tough for Illinois on the road
(27:33):
to deal with. Take the three points and the Duke
Blue Devils, all right. Moving on to some favorites. Old
Miss trying to get some revenge up on the Kentucky
Wildcats who struggled a bit with Toledo out of the
gate in week one. Zach Calzada is the quarterback there
Kentucky after journeying from Texas and m and then carne
Word now to Lexington. However, Austin Simmons is the quarterback
(27:57):
that I think we're gonna be talking about after this one.
Is a baseball player, dual athlete, but he's got a
rocket for and arm. He's a good athlete. He's in
that Old Miss system. You know he's gonna put up numbers.
This is one where I think if you are concerned,
if you're a Kentucky fans, go back and watch Tucker
Gleason for Toledo. Lits you up for two hundred and
seventy yards. You still got the win. But I think
(28:17):
there's a heavy momentum in my mind that Old Miss
is gonna want to make a statement after what happened
between these two last year. So it's a big number,
double digits. Hate doing it sometimes in this case, lay
the ten points with Old Miss, and finally SMU taking
on Baylor. Remember SMU is a playoff team just a
year ago. Kevin Jennings highly capable of being able to
(28:40):
take off with his legs, not just hurt you with
his arm through the air. And this is a Baylor
team that gave up a bunch of yards in Week
one to Auburn in that defeat. So I think SMU
gets it done on the ground. Jennings adds a little
bit in the air. Lay the two and a half
points with the SMU Mustangs.
Speaker 5 (28:58):
One thing to point out on the Old Miss pick
it is now dropped to eight and a half. There
you go, Okay, laid the eight and a half, so
a point and a half drop. What happened?
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Money money comes in on one side, and then most
people are kind of seeing it. You know these lines
earlier in the week or at least twenty four hours ago.
They're typically not as sharp as you get closer to
the game. Some people will think like injuries play a factor,
and they do. I think more so at the pro
level than the college level. The college level, yeah, it's
a little different circumstances, and honestly, the injury information isn't
(29:29):
always great. I mean, hell, it's hard for game crews
for them to get the information as far as who's
going to be actually you know, playing it in some
of these games. So trust me, it's hard for anyone
to get it. But usually it's the money and movement
and seeing some of these games and understanding kind of
how they're going to go.
Speaker 5 (29:45):
Is Whittingham still play pauling shenanigans with injured players and
giving out the accurate reports on.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Kyle's always been good with me. I've never dealt with that,
by the way. Devin Dampier their quarterback, keeping eye on him. Man,
he had a big, big week, big week Week one
versus UCLA. But Utah is a team to keep an
eye on the twelve this year. Because it happened.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
That hasn't been discussed too much.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Nico Yamliava, Yeah, it was not discussed too much. That's
a tough Week one matchup, though. I mean, Utah's like
the model of consistency, right, Yeah, and you've got a
quarterback now too that can sling it.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
They have a great reputation on how they play, man,
they should get a little bit more credit than what
they do.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
Honestly, That's what I brought up to Petros and he
was like, yeah, but your Ucla football, Ucla stinks.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
Oh dang well. I think the point he's trying to make,
at least this is the point I would make is
regardless of where UCLA at is that from that standpoint
is they have more money because they're part of the
Big Ten, and so the payout there getting from the
Big ten versus the payout they're getting from the Big
twelve is you know, someone the ballpar work of maybe
twenty million differents. So you should be able to make
(30:53):
up for that in some capacity. And again, your Ucla,
you're recruiting in southern California. You know, I'm not saying
that Utah can't recruiter, can't put together a good roster.
Clearly they have and they drummed him last week, but
there should be higher expectations at a place like UCLA.
Speaker 5 (31:10):
I mean they never recovered after man Man chose to
go to Penn State.
Speaker 4 (31:13):
Oh, don't do that.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
Well, I was gonna say, I blame Troy Aikman. I
mean he's not donating enough to the collective I'll put on.
I'm saying, Troy, you're my guy, Troy, love you. Yeah,
I think you're the best in the business calling games.
But you gotta help out your team.
Speaker 4 (31:27):
Bro. They offer more than Penn State, did there?
Speaker 3 (31:31):
You go?
Speaker 4 (31:32):
Well?
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Is that because the taxes though?
Speaker 4 (31:33):
Did they look at And maybe? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
They offer more though, And that is an interesting aspect
of it.
Speaker 4 (31:41):
All Right, you come there, you.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Go to certain I wonder how much if a kid
in the family is actually financially literate, how much will
that now play a part.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
In the schools that you choose to go to.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Like I really like this school, but if I go
to this school, I'm going to have to pay higher
taxes all money that I make, Like dang, Like that
would be a horrible reason to miss out on getting
a prospect.
Speaker 4 (32:07):
Right.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
Yeah, And here's the only thing I don't know is
with the House Inca settlement, I don't know if they're
getting compensated similar to the NFL where for people out
there who don't know, you get tax where you play.
So if you've got eight or nine home games with
a seventeen game season, just it kind of depends, you know,
those are tax in your home team, and then you're
taxed on the other eight or nine, you know, games
(32:30):
that are on the road. With college football, I haven't
gotten actually an explanation of if they're going to be
taxed purely where that home place is, which to your
point of are makes it even more enticing to obviously
look into that, or if it's going to be based
on where they play, which there can be some disadvantages
to certain places purely because of if they're playing a
(32:51):
certain schedule with teams and high income tax states. When
I'll work out Quie.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Is well, I wonder if that's why A and M
and like SMU are going so hard because that's very
Texas tech Texas, but we're going to get you all
that oil money and and you get tax.
Speaker 5 (33:09):
Breaks and it's Texas tech too because they're out you know.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
Well, it helps too when you have a billionaire who
is a huge football fan or sports fan, right like
Ishba at Michigan State's done worlds for them, are helping out,
you know, putting a lot of money for that those programs.
Obviously is a Cody Campbell, I believe, who's you know,
been a huge piece of everything at Texas Tech. So
(33:35):
you usually every single program has one. You know, Ruiz
is the guy down in Miami. I mean he's breaking
off all sorts of different NIL deals. So I send
you guys to report though. The other thing to keep it,
you know, keep an eye on, is what happens with
some of these deals. You know that College Sports Commission
(33:56):
via nil go, which is the marketplace where they do
all these nil deals. I think they if I've read
that correct yesterday, tell me if I'm wrong. I think
it was like three hundred and some deals they denied
or there's like something like that they're trying to they
didn't fall within the confines of whatever the NIO deals
or how they're supposed to be structured. So I keep
(34:16):
put on all that stuff while at DRAMA.
Speaker 5 (34:18):
You mean to tell me that there's some misinformation out
there when it comes to some of this stuff.
Speaker 3 (34:23):
Yeah, yeah, unfortunately there's some mission information. But one thing
I want to make sure you are informed about is
what depends doing depending on The Prostay Cancer Foundation are
here to remind you that health is a long game
and screening for prostay cancer is easier than ever. A
simple blood test can lead to better treatment options and
better outcomes. Learn more at depend dot com.
Speaker 4 (34:44):
All right, who's your upset alert? Do you have any
upset alerts this week?
Speaker 3 (34:48):
Upset alerts? Let me think about that. I mean, technically
that'd be Michigan would be upsetting Oklahoma.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
That's why I say they put some money on the
money line, Like I think. I think this Michigan program
is in a much more stable position than where Oklahoma is,
and Oklahoma fans can take issue with that. But you know,
no one's talking about Sharon Moore being on potentially with
the hot seat. You know, that's there's conversations about that
with print ventables. And I think if things don't go
well this year in Oklahoma or Norman, people are gonna
(35:19):
start questioning about the direction of how that program's going.
Speaker 5 (35:24):
Man, I don't know. I'm looking at a FIU getting
forty one and a half.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
I mean.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
Again, just out here looking at numbers.
Speaker 3 (35:35):
Well, we know if they're playing Southern Cal Lincoln Roley
would have put seventy on them, so he's probably trying
to cover that number.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Yeah, probably How big is they're a number big enough?
I know we gotta get the break, But just my
last question leading up to a big, big matchup against
Wisconsin and then after that Georgia. How big does Alabama
need to win this game to try to get some
of the pressure up off of the coach? That is there, right,
(36:04):
Caitlin de Boor? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (36:06):
How much? I mean do that?
Speaker 1 (36:07):
Is there a number high enough for them to be
able to say, okay, that at least gets us back
on track for what looks like it will be a
really really compreditive game with Wisconsin.
Speaker 3 (36:19):
No, I think they've got to I don't look at
it that way. I think they have to get a
string of wins. Like I don't think it's just one win, okay, Like,
if you can't get back into the hunt in the SEC.
Not that their their matchup versus Florida State, it was
a conference battle, but if you can recover, obviously make
your biggest jump between week one and week two in
college football, But if you can recover and then get
(36:41):
a string of wins together and start winning a conference play.
I think that changes the narrative a bit. But if
you can't do that, yeah, that's that to me is
where things start to fall to the wayside, you.
Speaker 4 (36:52):
Know, very quickly.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
I think now, after just kind of looking at how
teams played, I really do believe in having weaker weaker
opponents early on. I really do you get your game
legs under you so that you can play a full game.
I really do think that that would be the wise
decision instead of big games early.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
Right out of the shoot.
Speaker 5 (37:14):
It is Two Pros and a Cup of Joe here
on Fox Sports Radio. Up next, we are going to
hand out an award here on this Football Friday right
here on FSR.
Speaker 2 (37:22):

a Cup of Joe with Brady Quinn, LeVar Errington, and

from now, We're going to find out the other side
of the story of the story from last night's opener
in the NFL on Thursday Night football. That'll be yours
here again a little over ten minutes from now, but
(37:53):
right now it is time for the Express pros Pro
of the Week and the Pro the week goes too
Hurts the football.
Speaker 8 (38:01):
He's looking. He steps up, still looking, still looking. He
started the blow, he put the tenth, he put the fun.
He's take to the word goal puts down.
Speaker 4 (38:11):
Kay let hurt.
Speaker 5 (38:13):
Yeah, sometimes you.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Just got to do it yourself.
Speaker 5 (38:16):
Eagles Radio Network on the call. That is your Express
pros Pro of the Week, and of course it will
go to Jalen Hurts last night because business fluctuations make
running your manufacturing business complex, but staffing your business doesn't
have to be. Let Express Employment Professionals provide the workforce
you need. Go to expresspros dot com to find the
(38:37):
location near you. That's Expresspros dot Com. Did anybody else
play well last night other than maybe Jalen Hurts on
the ground or was it you know, kind of uh,
kind a little bit a little bit sloppy for everybody involved.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
It seemed like, would you say sloppy or good defensive battle?
Speaker 5 (38:54):
Hmmm, I don't know. You got guys spitting on players
like I don't know, I'm not.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
Gonna immediately makes it sloppy.
Speaker 5 (39:03):
I'm not going to reward that sort of behavior here.
I think that's, you know, reprehensible.
Speaker 3 (39:07):
I do think it's interesting though, quickly just the narrative
on Dak Prescott like gray ball and forth down CD
should have made that play. And when you think about
narratives of quarterbacks and Dak in particular, it's like, well,
how big will that catch or how much you know
bigger is that catch if they're able to fight to
(39:28):
stay in the division or make the playoffs, if they're
one game off. There's just there's so many things that
you think about some certain plays in the last night's game,
and it's like Dak sometimes I thought he played really well,
gets like a bad rep when he can't do it
all out there.
Speaker 1 (39:42):
Yeah, but Jalen Hurts was balanced, and I think he's
got a big time He's got a big time challenge
he's put in front of himself to play even better.
So we'll see. I thought he was good last night.

Speaker 5 (02:40):
Guys pretending to be uh hoktua. But it is a

Speaker 6 (02:49):

Speaker 4 (03:01):

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Friday night is a football Friday, Football Friday. Catch it

Speaker 5 (03:44):
Everybody's feeling it. We got another game to play with
coming up later on tonight.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Round Up.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
So there is a.
Speaker 5 (04:01):
Lot going on here. So there is a tell me
if you've heard this before, all right, Christian McCaffrey has
been added added to the injury report with a caffe Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
Yeah, it's just uh well, I mean, we we know
where to go to look for updates. I mean, do
you need to maybe provide some background information of what's
going on in Christian McCaffrey's life that would have led
to this?
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Jonas, I feel I feel uncomfortable doing that now I
got to get off the video of our set us
interesting interesting stretching routines.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
That made sometimes you got to pop that that part
of your body back into place obviously, so you know,
I guess.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
You're talking to.
Speaker 5 (04:52):
But uh yeah, let me go ahead and take a
look here, see if there's any uh. But the point
is this was not this was not anything that was new. Well, no,
this like everything was fine, Like he took part like
in practices, and then all of a sudden, as he
was you know, warming up and going through the media availability,
(05:12):
then he was nowhere to be found afterwards, and something
popped up with his calf. Now he's been added to
the injury report, and this just feels eerily similar to
what happened last year, where the expectation was he's going
to play. They opened up the year on Monday Night football,
and then all of a sudden, oh, he's just not
there and he's going to deal with this and miss
majority of the season. It just hasn't been able to
(05:35):
stay healthy, which has been the problem for the Niners.
It was the problem last year, and then you got
the same and you got the same issue with you know,
with the New York Jets, who find out, you know,
maybe their best offensive lineman, Elijah Vera Tucker, he's gone
torn triceps.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
It's like.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
The differences is the Jets have obviously not had a
history of success, and and you know clearly that the
forty nine ers have. What concerns me the most about
the forty nine ers it just it feels like and
maybe it's because they've been so consistently successful, with the
exception of last year, that that's part of it. Like
(06:13):
we don't throw them into the conversation as much because
we just expect them to be a team that wins
today as a playoff team. But I've got some big
time concerns and reservations. I mean, I'll start by saying this,
did you guys realize brock perty wasn't in the top
one hundred?
Speaker 5 (06:28):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Really, go look it up.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
I didn't keep up with the top one hundred, but
I mean that wouldn't be up.
Speaker 3 (06:35):
Well, the only me the only reason I bring that
up of OAR is because it's voted on by the players.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
Yeah, and so if the players in the.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
League don't view brock Purty as a guy who's in
that top one hundred, and I'm not saying that you know,
all thirty thirty two quarterbacks are going to be or
maybe I just I feel like, you know, he's gotten paid.
Speaker 4 (06:53):
A lot of players. That's a lot of players, and
he did get paid.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
He's gotten paid now, so there's the expectation. I think
that goes along with it. But I think I think
you get an idea from his peers about what he
is or what he isn't And so if they don't
have Christian McCaffrey, we kind of look at that team
a bit different, do we not yet? And I think
that's what we said.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
That last year.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
Didn't you say that last year he was going to
have an opportunity to prove that he deserved the money
that they were going to pay him when they paid him,
by showing he could still be competitive and win without having,
you know, having Christian McCaffrey and others, and Trent Williams
was out as well. I've said it. I hate to
be the one that says I told y'all so, and listen,
(07:35):
it's still early. I'm just not high on the Niners.
I'm not high on them. I feel like there's too
many question marks that surround this current team and I
have to see it, but I'll say this, I wasn't
very high on Dallas either, and I got to give
credit where credit is due, if only for one thing
(07:58):
that Dallas improved on or looked efficient and looked good.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Offensively, they look good. They look good, and so shots
out to Brian Schottenheimer.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
I have at times been a critic, but I do
give I definitely give props where props are due. He
coached a hell of a game. He coached. He kept
the best team in the NFC and one of the
top teams, the returning Super Bowl team. He kept them
off balanced. They couldn't figure it out too much. And
(08:30):
so I don't know the reason why I guess I
went so in depth in saying that is maybe maybe
because of the way the coaching is done in San Francisco.
Maybe putting them in the right positions and schematically making
sure that his guys can maximize what it is that
(08:50):
they're they're good at doing, even if they don't have
Christian McCaffrey could be the difference. I just don't feel
confident that that's what it's going to be that place.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
How many people here picked the Niners to win the
West or pick the Niners to be a playoff team
because I have a I'd like to ask a question here. Well,
you know what I mean, because that was before this
injury came out, and if we're already starting the season
with that, like I feel like, based upon further review,
(09:23):
maybe we.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
San Francisco third on my list for finishing in the
in the West.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
It sticks.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
We already gave him lorena, But thank you, thank you.
I appreciate the effect.
Speaker 5 (09:40):
Like the Jets, the Elijah Verra Tucker, I mean the
Jets I had I had last So just nothing really
to change there. That's just more confirmation.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Than it knocks locks. Dang, I had New England lower
than the Jets. Yeah you did? Problem?
Speaker 3 (09:57):
Had them fourth?
Speaker 4 (09:58):
Yeah? Problem? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (10:00):
Is this change your outlook on the uh Patriots Jets?
Speaker 4 (10:05):
No?
Speaker 3 (10:07):
At what point during the season, once the Patriots continue
to start winning and then and the Jets maybe struggle
a bit. But as that division becomes more clear, is
it after like week four or five? Is it after
week nine or ten? Like, at what point we'd be like, oh, yeah,
maybe I missed on that one. I don't think Patriots
fans want to know I got I got some people like,
(10:28):
why is Leva not a Cots fan?
Speaker 1 (10:30):
Hey, listen, I got some bad news for you. So
go ahead and get a bullet chatter. I'll tell you
what I'm what I'm gonna tell you. You're finish. And
last is that Joe? Is that Joe Paul?
Speaker 4 (10:42):
No, that's not New York.
Speaker 5 (10:43):
That's bastard.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
Get get a bullet chatter. Get him out of here. No,
that's that's that's Brooklyn.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Hey, hey, forget about it, Like, Hey, get him out
of there?
Speaker 5 (10:56):
Kay, what is it ticket doing?
Speaker 4 (10:58):
They can't? What do you get him out of it?
So that's that's that's more. That's that's New York. But
get your chatta.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
And now how they say clam chadda clam clam chatta
like it's Boston's accents are wow? Crazy where? But you
know what what isn't wild crazy where? It is to
think that they're going to finish last in their division.
And I think that, Wow, Mike Rabel is a hell
of a hire, and I think he will have them
(11:29):
going in the right direction. I love the young running back.
I am on record as saying that I really like
this young running back out of out of Ohio State
and he could end up being like the guy that
is a feature guy that people you know, pay attention to,
like b Jhon Robinson.
Speaker 4 (11:47):
Type of of you know, hype.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
He could he could generate with oh my gosh, he's
he's so good. But with that being said, I still
think this is a work in progress. It's a work
in progress, and I say it's at least going to
take one solid year of trying to figure out who's
who and what's what with that team before they become
(12:11):
more of a competitive team. So it's not that it's
Mike Rabel isn't good enough or capable enough to change
them into a better team within this small amount of time.
I just think that I just don't think that this
year is that year for them, And I could be wrong,
Obviously I could be wrong, but I just I feel
pretty confident in saying there's a few teams that I'm
(12:32):
just not high on.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
The Patriots aren't even on my radar to be high.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
On, you know, speaking of the Patriots, I don't know
if you saw this report that was out from John
Middlecoff who said that Bill Belichick has banned Patriots scouts
from attending North Carolina practices oh so that's why. That's
why I mentioned yesterday little wit right crazy. I can't
(12:56):
imagine Belichick will be there for the statue unveiling because
I don't think he's over how that whole thing broke
down between him and New England and Robert Kraft. But
if this is true, that's kind of a bad look
for Belichick. No, because like to tell players who are
looking to maybe get drafted in the NFL that guys
can't come see them work or see them in practice
(13:20):
because of whatever acts, You've got to grind with your
ax and look.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
At it a little different. Maybe they just want to
He wants enough to come through him. He's like all
these other thirty one other NFL teams. They can come
and watch. But if you want, if you're if you're
in New England and you went an inful one with
our players, you got to come through me. You got
to come through me first.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Or my girlfriend WHOA, that didn't come out the right way?
Rewind ate that, Yeah, that did not That's not what
I meant. That didn't mean it that the way that
it came came across, I don't know. I mean after
(14:04):
the picture that posted showing the way she was looking
at Randy Moss.
Speaker 4 (14:08):
I mean, doesn't seem far.
Speaker 5 (14:11):
Oh really is that? Was that making the rounds?
Speaker 4 (14:15):
That is making the rounds? You haven't seen that? Why
is it?
Speaker 5 (14:18):
Why is it open season on Bill Belichick? Man? It's
one game, all right? You know, I don't.
Speaker 4 (14:24):
Understand it's pretty bad? Was good?
Speaker 5 (14:28):
I mean, you know, there's how he got blown out
in his first game as an NFL coach. Too things
turned around. You know, maybe they'll they'll bounce back and
get it together. You know, Damn week one will come
up and bite you in the ass from time to time.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
How bad will it get for Bill Belichick?
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Like his legacy obviously is his legacy in a lot
of ways, it's solidified. But after the way I read
and saw the reactions to him, the visceral reactions towards
who he is as not only a coach but as
a person. Just how many shots and how many how
(15:07):
many like really really like low blows were taken on him?
How bad does this impact him? I mean, I'm just
curious how bad does it impact him? If this is
a very poor tenure for him at UNC, I feel
like it could be worse than, maybe than what maybe
(15:30):
anticipated like if I do well, I do well, and
we will we'll keep going and maybe I'll come back
to the NFL. But this could do in a way,
a lot of ways, this could do a lot more
damage to Bill Belichick than good. I just I came
away feeling kind of like I kind of felt bad
(15:50):
for him a little bit.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
Man, I don't know. I think that maybe if it
goes this, if it goes sideways North Carolina, It'll take
some time, but ultimately people are gonna remember him for
the New England years, like, and they're not going to
remember him. It's like you, I.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Don't know, man, because it's so easy to just go
and be like, if he doesn't get Tom Brady, he's
not what he is, it doesn't happen the way that
it happens. He was only good with Tom Brady. He
wasn't good before and he wasn't good after.
Speaker 5 (16:19):
But but do you remember do you remember Emitt Smith
as a cardinal or you remember who was a cowboy?
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Yeah, but.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
That's very very it's very different. Like a running back
isn't going to impact a team the way a quarterback
or a coach is, especially a coach, because you can Actually,
you set coaches higher.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
On the total pole than even quarterbacks.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
So if you're the reason why a team is winning,
I mean listen, if it's not for Bill Belichick coaching
him the way he's coaching him, tom Brady doesn't develop
into the pro player that he into, or whoever it
was that developed them. But give credit to Bill Belichick
for bringing in the person whoever it is that coached
(17:08):
them the way that they did and led to him
becoming a player that he did. Even if Tom Brady
did it on his own with somebody else, doesn't matter.
It was under Bill Belichick's watch. Do you think that
he gets the.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
Lean on that?
Speaker 5 (17:21):
Do you guys think that also part of this too,
because we mentioned you know, everybody's taking shots at Belichick
and there's jokes and you get Brett McMurphy just what
a tool going on social media. Oh it was twenty
four year old girlfriend, Like he's all horned up at
home watching her on the sidelines when you see all
that stuff. This is just in large part because Belichick
(17:41):
didn't play the game for all those years when he
was in New England, that he wasn't as accessible to
the media. He didn't give them what they wanted. He
didn't play along, and so now it's it's.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Their turning it back out of it.
Speaker 5 (17:53):
Yeah, why do we care?
Speaker 3 (17:54):
Like that's the power of the pen, that's the power
of the media. Like, if you're going to treat him poor,
they're gonna have their opportunity to get back at you.
And now people are taking their chance to get back
at because honestly, he never needed to handle the media
the way he did, did he If we're being honest
about it, like, you can be kind, you can be cordial,
you can still give some information. I mean, look at
(18:16):
Sean McVay. Sean McVay, who is one of the most
beloved one will probably have a media career when it's
all said and done. But also because of how he
handles the media. He gives them detailed information or buios
about players, what makes them tick, what makes them so good.
He'll talk about scheme, he'll talk about ball, you know,
and Belichick will do it from time to time. But
(18:39):
I'm saying like, there's different coaches who do it different ways,
and they still find a way of being able to
be successful yet talking to the media. So I just
I don't really care. I could almost cuss I could
give two craps about in all seriousness, like it doesn't matter,
Like this is their opportunity to get back if they
(19:00):
want to be petty, let him be petty. It says
just as much about them too, Like like Brett McMurphy
for making these jokes, it says just as much about him.
Speaker 5 (19:09):
I'm gonna stand by Belichick, all right, give me, give
me North Carolina to stand by.
Speaker 3 (19:15):
Feels like he's busy right now.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
He's he's he's best friend Bo Brady is.
Speaker 3 (19:27):
I just feel like there's times in this show and
like Lee disappears, all of a sudden, the drops start
stop hitting. I don't know what it's like.
Speaker 5 (19:34):
It's almost like we're out in the field. He's playing
in the dome, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yeah, crazy, that's one way of putting it crazy.
Speaker 5 (19:42):
By the way, yeah, are on.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
A very very interesting tangent.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
What do you mean?
Speaker 4 (19:49):
What you mean?
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Well, where are you at right now?
Speaker 1 (19:52):
I'm go stay college, I know, but where at an
undisclosed location.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
I've noticed that I thought you were in a safe house.
Speaker 4 (20:01):
Yeah, something like that. I'm just saying, yeah, something.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
Like that looks nice though, Yeah, it is nice, very nice.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
About this last night. This is how my travels been going.
Kind of got delayed and ended up sitting on the
plane next to a buddy I used to work with
at CBS. So I had a pretty good time. And
for whatever reason, I just I thought I knew what
a hotel were staying in, so I go to the
wrong hotel. That was the beginning of it. But the
(20:30):
guy at the front desk is really nice and he goes,
you know, you're not too far from here. You just
you can walk. You just go this way and once
you get to the demos, you go left. Well, I
think the problem was I didn't go the way I
should have went out of the hotel. So I'm like
wandering the streets of Des Moines night and I finally
get to the hotel, finally get all connected with everything,
and it was one of those deals where like everyone's out,
(20:53):
you know, because it's Thursday night. So it's kind of
like back in the old college days where if there
was a go at night for football player, a big
night was actually Thursday because they saw the data recover
on Friday in the game on Saturday. It wasn't always Saturdays,
like people think, oh, the football players are getting aught
them on Saturdays, depending on what the game is. Now tired,
some of those guys are. Sometimes it doesn't happen that way.
(21:14):
So anyway, it was, I was like trying to dodge
a duck and dodge and I get around like having
to go be too social in the middle of the night.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
I got a little too social last year.
Speaker 5 (21:28):
That's gonna say.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
It's it's not good.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
You look good, though, you look good. I see it.
You look fine.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I appreciate it, but it was not it ended bad.
It isn't it bad.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
It's just it took to.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
Not a happy ending. I get you.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
No, wasn't.
Speaker 5 (21:45):
I mean, if you need any support, I recommend the
home Depot.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
Oh okay, tell me why the.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
Support of the home Depot. It's about time for pros
to source the whole job with one partner. Ask about
all they can do for you at the pro desk,
the Home Depot pro. It's about time, all right. So

Speaker 2 (23:39):
Listen up.
Speaker 4 (23:39):
Lenny cures all illnesses. It really does.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
I'm going to win.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
It's Quinn's Wins. All right, ladies and gentlemen, thank you
once again for tuning in to a week three edition
of Quinn's Wins. In the college football world. We will
transition to the NFL whence college football's over. Oh my god,
last week two and two, so moving in the right
direction after a one and two start two and two.
(24:04):
We clearly had the Ohio State Texas game down on
that one, laying the points, which, by the way, kind
of crazy. You could have gotten points at one point
day of the game with Texas. There's some really interesting
line movement. Excuse me, it would have been laying points
that Texas would favorite at one point in that game.
Then it swung back to Ohio State before it closed.
(24:24):
But I digress Alabama not showing up getting blown out
by Florida State that tanks some things, and unfortunately for
the Notre Dame Miami under which we had in that game,
it closed at fifty one and a half. However, we
took earlier in the week, so if you were riding
along with me, ended up hitting the under at the close,
(24:45):
but not when we had actually picked. So on the season,
we are three and four and I've got four more
for you. And by the way, we're not some of
those sissies who've got to go and find some other
obscure games somewhere else. I'm giving you the big games,
the games you're going to watch. There's none bigger than
Michigan heading to Norman, Oklahoma to take on the Sooners.
(25:06):
The Wolverines are getting five and a half points. Jonas,
keep me honest, this is still five and a half efforting. Okay,
usually Jonas is more up on this, but let me
just rave for a second about both new quarterbacks at
Michigan and Oklahoma for the Sooners John Matteir. The transfer
comes in looked fantastic in Week one, looks to bring
that uplifting I guess, momentum and really just playmaking ability
(25:30):
that the offense has been missing for the last couple
of years now. So Materier at quarterback for Oklahoma makes
all the difference. I think with Brent Venables now, I
want to say on the hot seat, but it really does
need a big season. And this is a team that's
been led by their defense, but I think they've got
something special and Matier at quarterback and the other side
a true freshman, the highly anticipated Bryce Underwood. Someone call
(25:53):
them the twelve million dollar man, which is the rumors
and reports of what he was paid to go to Michigan.
I don't care what he was paid. This young man
has it all. He's got a rocket for an arm,
he sees the field well, he can throw with touch.
I know it was New Mexico last week, and you
know people will say, I don't want to make too
much of it. Some of the throws he were making,
I don't care who it's against. Like it displayed all
(26:14):
the talent ability that he's got with that defense, that
rushing attack, that they've got a Michigan Give me the
five and a half points. Jonas is still five and
a half.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
At quick refresh, it is now four and a half
Michigan plus far.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
There you go.
Speaker 3 (26:27):
And that's why, because I think people are starting to
understand just how good this Michigan team can be with
underwooded quarterbacks. So go ahead take the four and a
half points. If you're really feeling spicy, money line, oh
tell you right now. Look out for these Wolverines with
Price Underwood at quarterback, staying between a battle and the
big ten and the acc We've got Illinois traveling down
(26:50):
to North Carolina to take on the Duke Blue Devils.
Duke giving three points at home to Illinois. Something seems
off about this. Do you smell that? Var you smell?
That smell was a little fishy. So was a little
fishy to me. But and here's the thing. If Illinois,
who's looked at as a top ten team somewhere in
(27:13):
the vicinity last time I looked, I would have thought
it would have been a bigger number. It smells off
to me. I was watching the tape on Darien Mensa,
the transfer quarterback at Duke. He's got the goods. There's
a reason why he left Tulane. Duke was excited about
getting him. He's been able to bring and kind of
uplift a little bit many ideas in that defense at
Duke is gonna be tough for Illinois on the road
(27:33):
to deal with. Take the three points and the Duke
Blue Devils, all right. Moving on to some favorites. Old
Miss trying to get some revenge up on the Kentucky
Wildcats who struggled a bit with Toledo out of the
gate in week one. Zach Calzada is the quarterback there
Kentucky after journeying from Texas and m and then carne
Word now to Lexington. However, Austin Simmons is the quarterback
(27:57):
that I think we're gonna be talking about after this one.
Is a baseball player, dual athlete, but he's got a
rocket for and arm. He's a good athlete. He's in
that Old Miss system. You know he's gonna put up numbers.
This is one where I think if you are concerned,
if you're a Kentucky fans, go back and watch Tucker
Gleason for Toledo. Lits you up for two hundred and
seventy yards. You still got the win. But I think
(28:17):
there's a heavy momentum in my mind that Old Miss
is gonna want to make a statement after what happened
between these two last year. So it's a big number,
double digits. Hate doing it sometimes in this case, lay
the ten points with Old Miss, and finally SMU taking
on Baylor. Remember SMU is a playoff team just a
year ago. Kevin Jennings highly capable of being able to
(28:40):
take off with his legs, not just hurt you with
his arm through the air. And this is a Baylor
team that gave up a bunch of yards in Week
one to Auburn in that defeat. So I think SMU
gets it done on the ground. Jennings adds a little
bit in the air. Lay the two and a half
points with the SMU Mustangs.
Speaker 5 (28:58):
One thing to point out on the Old Miss pick
it is now dropped to eight and a half. There
you go, Okay, laid the eight and a half, so
a point and a half drop. What happened?
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Money money comes in on one side, and then most
people are kind of seeing it. You know these lines
earlier in the week or at least twenty four hours ago.
They're typically not as sharp as you get closer to
the game. Some people will think like injuries play a factor,
and they do. I think more so at the pro
level than the college level. The college level, yeah, it's
a little different circumstances, and honestly, the injury information isn't
(29:29):
always great. I mean, hell, it's hard for game crews
for them to get the information as far as who's
going to be actually you know, playing it in some
of these games. So trust me, it's hard for anyone
to get it. But usually it's the money and movement
and seeing some of these games and understanding kind of
how they're going to go.
Speaker 5 (29:45):
Is Whittingham still play pauling shenanigans with injured players and
giving out the accurate reports on.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Kyle's always been good with me. I've never dealt with that,
by the way. Devin Dampier their quarterback, keeping eye on him. Man,
he had a big, big week, big week Week one
versus UCLA. But Utah is a team to keep an
eye on the twelve this year. Because it happened.
Speaker 4 (30:06):
That hasn't been discussed too much.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Nico Yamliava, Yeah, it was not discussed too much. That's
a tough Week one matchup, though. I mean, Utah's like
the model of consistency, right, Yeah, and you've got a
quarterback now too that can sling it.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
They have a great reputation on how they play, man,
they should get a little bit more credit than what
they do.
Speaker 5 (30:26):
Honestly, That's what I brought up to Petros and he
was like, yeah, but your Ucla football, Ucla stinks.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
Oh dang well. I think the point he's trying to make,
at least this is the point I would make is
regardless of where UCLA at is that from that standpoint
is they have more money because they're part of the
Big Ten, and so the payout there getting from the
Big ten versus the payout they're getting from the Big
twelve is you know, someone the ballpar work of maybe
twenty million differents. So you should be able to make
(30:53):
up for that in some capacity. And again, your Ucla,
you're recruiting in southern California. You know, I'm not saying
that Utah can't recruiter, can't put together a good roster.
Clearly they have and they drummed him last week, but
there should be higher expectations at a place like UCLA.
Speaker 5 (31:10):
I mean they never recovered after man Man chose to
go to Penn State.
Speaker 4 (31:13):
Oh, don't do that.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
Well, I was gonna say, I blame Troy Aikman. I
mean he's not donating enough to the collective I'll put on.
I'm saying, Troy, you're my guy, Troy, love you. Yeah,
I think you're the best in the business calling games.
But you gotta help out your team.
Speaker 4 (31:27):
Bro. They offer more than Penn State, did there?
Speaker 3 (31:31):
You go?
Speaker 4 (31:32):
Well?
Speaker 3 (31:32):
Is that because the taxes though?
Speaker 4 (31:33):
Did they look at And maybe? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
They offer more though, And that is an interesting aspect
of it.
Speaker 4 (31:41):
All Right, you come there, you.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Go to certain I wonder how much if a kid
in the family is actually financially literate, how much will
that now play a part.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
In the schools that you choose to go to.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Like I really like this school, but if I go
to this school, I'm going to have to pay higher
taxes all money that I make, Like dang, Like that
would be a horrible reason to miss out on getting
a prospect.
Speaker 4 (32:07):
Right.
Speaker 3 (32:08):
Yeah, And here's the only thing I don't know is
with the House Inca settlement, I don't know if they're
getting compensated similar to the NFL where for people out
there who don't know, you get tax where you play.
So if you've got eight or nine home games with
a seventeen game season, just it kind of depends, you know,
those are tax in your home team, and then you're
taxed on the other eight or nine, you know, games
(32:30):
that are on the road. With college football, I haven't
gotten actually an explanation of if they're going to be
taxed purely where that home place is, which to your
point of are makes it even more enticing to obviously
look into that, or if it's going to be based
on where they play, which there can be some disadvantages
to certain places purely because of if they're playing a
(32:51):
certain schedule with teams and high income tax states. When
I'll work out Quie.
Speaker 1 (32:56):
Is well, I wonder if that's why A and M
and like SMU are going so hard because that's very
Texas tech Texas, but we're going to get you all
that oil money and and you get tax.
Speaker 5 (33:09):
Breaks and it's Texas tech too because they're out you know.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
Well, it helps too when you have a billionaire who
is a huge football fan or sports fan, right like
Ishba at Michigan State's done worlds for them, are helping out,
you know, putting a lot of money for that those programs.
Obviously is a Cody Campbell, I believe, who's you know,
been a huge piece of everything at Texas Tech. So
(33:35):
you usually every single program has one. You know, Ruiz
is the guy down in Miami. I mean he's breaking
off all sorts of different NIL deals. So I send
you guys to report though. The other thing to keep it,
you know, keep an eye on, is what happens with
some of these deals. You know that College Sports Commission
(33:56):
via nil go, which is the marketplace where they do
all these nil deals. I think they if I've read
that correct yesterday, tell me if I'm wrong. I think
it was like three hundred and some deals they denied
or there's like something like that they're trying to they
didn't fall within the confines of whatever the NIO deals
or how they're supposed to be structured. So I keep
(34:16):
put on all that stuff while at DRAMA.
Speaker 5 (34:18):
You mean to tell me that there's some misinformation out
there when it comes to some of this stuff.
Speaker 3 (34:23):
Yeah, yeah, unfortunately there's some mission information. But one thing
I want to make sure you are informed about is
what depends doing depending on The Prostay Cancer Foundation are
here to remind you that health is a long game
and screening for prostay cancer is easier than ever. A
simple blood test can lead to better treatment options and
better outcomes. Learn more at depend dot com.
Speaker 4 (34:44):
All right, who's your upset alert? Do you have any
upset alerts this week?
Speaker 3 (34:48):
Upset alerts? Let me think about that. I mean, technically
that'd be Michigan would be upsetting Oklahoma.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
That's why I say they put some money on the
money line, Like I think. I think this Michigan program
is in a much more stable position than where Oklahoma is,
and Oklahoma fans can take issue with that. But you know,
no one's talking about Sharon Moore being on potentially with
the hot seat. You know, that's there's conversations about that
with print ventables. And I think if things don't go
well this year in Oklahoma or Norman, people are gonna
(35:19):
start questioning about the direction of how that program's going.
Speaker 5 (35:24):
Man, I don't know. I'm looking at a FIU getting
forty one and a half.
Speaker 4 (35:30):
I mean.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
Again, just out here looking at numbers.
Speaker 3 (35:35):
Well, we know if they're playing Southern Cal Lincoln Roley
would have put seventy on them, so he's probably trying
to cover that number.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Yeah, probably How big is they're a number big enough?
I know we gotta get the break, But just my
last question leading up to a big, big matchup against
Wisconsin and then after that Georgia. How big does Alabama
need to win this game to try to get some
of the pressure up off of the coach? That is there, right,
(36:04):
Caitlin de Boor? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (36:06):
How much? I mean do that?
Speaker 1 (36:07):
Is there a number high enough for them to be
able to say, okay, that at least gets us back
on track for what looks like it will be a
really really compreditive game with Wisconsin.
Speaker 3 (36:19):
No, I think they've got to I don't look at
it that way. I think they have to get a
string of wins. Like I don't think it's just one win, okay, Like,
if you can't get back into the hunt in the SEC.
Not that their their matchup versus Florida State, it was
a conference battle, but if you can recover, obviously make
your biggest jump between week one and week two in
college football, But if you can recover and then get
(36:41):
a string of wins together and start winning a conference play.
I think that changes the narrative a bit. But if
you can't do that, yeah, that's that to me is
where things start to fall to the wayside, you.
Speaker 4 (36:52):
Know, very quickly.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
I think now, after just kind of looking at how
teams played, I really do believe in having weaker weaker
opponents early on. I really do you get your game
legs under you so that you can play a full game.
I really do think that that would be the wise
decision instead of big games early.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
Right out of the shoot.
Speaker 5 (37:14):
It is Two Pros and a Cup of Joe here
on Fox Sports Radio. Up next, we are going to
hand out an award here on this Football Friday right

Speaker 5 (37:33):
Two Pros and a Cup of Joe, Fox Sports Radio,
LeVar Arrington, Brady Quinn, Jonas Knox with you here. Coming
up top of next hour a little over ten minutes
from now, We're going to find out the other side
of the story of the story from last night's opener
in the NFL on Thursday Night football. That'll be yours
here again a little over ten minutes from now, but
(37:53):
right now it is time for the Express pros Pro
of the Week and the Pro the week goes too
Hurts the football.
Speaker 8 (38:01):
He's looking. He steps up, still looking, still looking. He
started the blow, he put the tenth, he put the fun.
He's take to the word goal puts down.
Speaker 4 (38:11):
Kay let hurt.
Speaker 5 (38:13):
Yeah, sometimes you.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
Just got to do it yourself.
Speaker 5 (38:16):
Eagles Radio Network on the call. That is your Express
pros Pro of the Week, and of course it will
go to Jalen Hurts last night because business fluctuations make
running your manufacturing business complex, but staffing your business doesn't
have to be. Let Express Employment Professionals provide the workforce
you need. Go to expresspros dot com to find the
(38:37):
location near you. That's Expresspros dot Com. Did anybody else
play well last night other than maybe Jalen Hurts on
the ground or was it you know, kind of uh,
kind a little bit a little bit sloppy for everybody involved.
Speaker 3 (38:51):
It seemed like, would you say sloppy or good defensive battle?
Speaker 5 (38:54):
Hmmm, I don't know. You got guys spitting on players
like I don't know, I'm not.
Speaker 1 (38:59):
Gonna immediately makes it sloppy.
Speaker 5 (39:03):
I'm not going to reward that sort of behavior here.
I think that's, you know, reprehensible.
Speaker 3 (39:07):
I do think it's interesting though, quickly just the narrative
on Dak Prescott like gray ball and forth down CD
should have made that play. And when you think about
narratives of quarterbacks and Dak in particular, it's like, well,
how big will that catch or how much you know
bigger is that catch if they're able to fight to
(39:28):
stay in the division or make the playoffs, if they're
one game off. There's just there's so many things that
you think about some certain plays in the last night's game,
and it's like Dak sometimes I thought he played really well,
gets like a bad rep when he can't do it
all out there.
Speaker 1 (39:42):
Yeah, but Jalen Hurts was balanced, and I think he's
got a big time He's got a big time challenge
he's put in front of himself to play even better.
So we'll see. I thought he was good last night.
