picks ready? All right, get your picks ready? Can I
share with you something bizarre that happened to me upon
landing in Buffalo? Okay, byer, you're gonna love thisa You're
gonna love this okay, my last time in Buffalo is
(01:10):
also my only other time in Buffalo that the year
was The year was two thousand or ought ought if
you're that old, right, two thousand and we played the
first two rounds of the NCAA We played We played
in the NCAA tournament in Buffalo. The sweet six team
(01:33):
was in Syracuse, New York. So we stayed in Western
New York, stayed in Buffalo, did Niagara Falls for a
day practice. At the time, it was Lamoy in college.
Now it's a Division one program. And then eventually we
made the bus ride over to Syracuse, New York. So
the bus driver is a is a tall man. He's
probably in the six eight variety, maybe six'. Nine and
(01:54):
so we're getting on the. BUS i sat down AND
i sat next to onor of my assistant, coaches AND
i was, like is that the tallest bus driver? Yet
and then we start talking about how much nil money
would he get twenty five thirty years? Ago, Right that's
what we were just joking about. It so he sits,
In he's, Like, gottlieb, right, yeah listen to your radio.
Show that's really. Nice you, KNOW i THINK i drove
(02:16):
your drove you in the bus in two thousand AND
i was, like stop. It it's, like, well was An
Eddie sutton team ever in THE ncaa tournament? Here after?
THAT i said, No was there AN ncaa tournament team
that went To, Syracuse New? YORK i said? No he,
(02:37):
said did you guys go To Niagara falls and you
were playing something About mary the entire time on the
video on the? BUS i, said that's. Us how about
That Dan, byer same. Guy it's a small world that
seems statistically, impossible, impossible.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
Impossible career bus.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Driver, yeah we did have that discussion amongst the. Group we're,
like you, know is he a bus? Driver twenty five
years later they're, like.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
APPARENTLY i think it's.
Speaker 3 (03:07):
YEAH i think it's, totally, like really really, cool and
it's funny that it's spanned twenty five. Years, however how
many bus drivers are there that carry college teams? Around,
Right there's got to be a small. Number he's just
stayed in the game for twenty five plus.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Years he's been in the game for a long, time that's. Right,
yes he's been the. Game i've been a game for
a long. Time i've been a lot of. Coaches, okay
you're just one of. Them that's a crazy. Thing what
are the, Chances what are the? Chances one in a? Million, Yet,
LIKE i, agree there's got to be a small number
with these coach bus. Drivers but that seems. Crazy, Okay, uh,
(03:50):
well let's not talk about last night starts a football
game because it was a, debacle, right it was a. Debacle,
INSTEAD i want to talk About luke fickles. Suation, now in,
fairness we're in the Same University wisconsin, system but with
all of the coaching firings in THE sec and the
(04:11):
struggles That Luke fickle has had In, madison there were
obviously calls for his. Ouster yesterday it was announced That
Luke fickle is going to return for next, year which
seems very un college. Football. LIKE i like it for three.
Reasons the first reason is just doing what everybody's, doing
(04:34):
because everybody's doing. It kind of The lemming effect is so.
Lame don't get me. Wrong not every coach deserves to
keep their. Job not every coach deserves to get another.
YEAR i understand. It, okay my situation is different than
a different coach in which you inherited how much money
you have academics all that other, stuff and at the
(04:56):
highest level of college, football you, know with the exception
of a debacle off the, field the type of the
type of off the field issues that can lead to get.
Fired for the most, part it's really about winning and,
losing and they haven't won. Enough. Now they've also had you,
(05:17):
know every quarterback they bring in seems to get, hurt
and so it's really hard to tell if the offense
is any, better especially when they want to throw the,
football if the quarterback that in this case they paid
a lot of money, too doesn't actually play quarterback because he's.
Hurt but the first REASON i like it is because
it just forget The lemming. Effect we got to do
what's best for. Us second part about IT i like
(05:38):
is it gives them another year where they sit there and,
go you, Know i'm sure Coach fickle and other, coaches
if we just had give me a year with the
legit money and stand behind me That i'm not going
to get, fired and let me show you WHAT i
can do and WHAT i can. Build so you're giving
a guy. Hey and then the last thing is we're
not wasting. Money we're not wasting Money i'm broadcasting from
(06:03):
The university Of buffalo's football, stadium and they have a
beautiful practice into our practice center that's in one of
the insomes the stadium. ITSELF i, mean let's just be,
honest it could it could stand to, redo but the
press box and the football offices are really nicely. Redone
but before coming up, Here, dan the front desk to
(06:26):
their football offices is just really really. Cool it's kind
of got that gun metal steel, whatever and then it's
got a little water feature behind. It and you know,
what the first thought my mind, was what do you
think that watter feature costs a thousand? Dollars? Right Like
i'd lose my mind over. It, no, no, no, no, no,
NO i need one thousand dollars for, Again, like give
(06:48):
me one hundred different ways to cut one thousand. Dollars
it gets me a big time basketball, player you, know
or a big time football. Player save every penny Was
wisconsin had separated themselves for a long. Time i'm on
a high retention. Rate they would recruit a lot of
in state, kids walk on develop. Them and Obviously Luke
(07:09):
wickle has not done a good enough job of. It
but part of it is with the changing landscape of
the transfer. Portal it's harder to do. That it's hard to, say,
hey we're gonna bring guys in and in year, four year,
five you're gonna be. Awesome kids don't want to wait
for year four year. Five you actually recruit kids from
your area and they go, elsewhere and you, go, hey
that's a great call by.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
You.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Listen if it doesn't work, out call me come back. Home. Right, so,
LOOK i get that we're like just fire, coaches fire.
Coaches the point, is did you Think Luke fickle was
good enough when he was At Ohio? State maybe not
For Ohio. State did you think he was good enough
when he Said? Cincinnati and this is my point for somebody's.
(07:49):
Coaches if you've achieved where you've shown you can do
it on any level a consistent, basis then you get
to a place and suddenly you can't do it at.
All could it be The peter Principal peter principles when
you're advanced past your level of. Competency, Maybe or it
could be the fact that you were caught up in
this massive change in the game in the sport and
(08:12):
you got your plan, catchup which is more likely and
that's a hard, decision but just firing because everybody's firing their.
Guy and somehow Like wisconsin, understands if you Fire Luke,
fickel you owe him twenty million. Dollars they need that
twenty million. Dollars so, instead, again we're not gonna waste
twenty million dollars on firing a. Coach then we got
(08:32):
to spend twenty million dollars to get a whole new,
coach the whole new. Staff what if we put ten
of it into our budget along with what we got
and give him a year to see if he can
load up and go win and if, not then we
walk away with less of a. Buyout it doesn't because
if you fire him and you pay him twenty million,
dollars you're not only not good this, year you're not
gonna be good next. Year and it's very hard to
(08:53):
see that you'll be super competitive in two. Years it's
that hard to rebuild things when you lose guys and
lose money because you lose your whole team when you
fire your. Coach why would you have Fired Luke?
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Prickle, no because of the reasons that you're, Saying AND
i think that a majority of the fan, base and
maybe it's the vocal, Majority. Doug we're flabbergasted by the
decision beyond themselves over the last twenty four. Hours and
it's funny BECAUSE i also think it's a fan base
(09:29):
that wanted to take things to the next. Level And
wisconsin's been in an interesting spot over the last twenty five.
Years Barry alvarez even admitted, that you, know they went
to The Rose bowl in the mid, nineties then they,
Won they won that AGAINST, ucla went back to Back
Rose bowls nineteen ninety, nine two.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Thousand time they're saying.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
We're going to go and Recruit, california And barry admitted
it was a mistake that they thought, that, hey we're
In pasadena every, year we can branch out and recruit that,
way and it didn't work for.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Them there was a.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
Dip they didn't hit on, those so they went back
to what they did well And wisconsin Was. Wisconsin and
the only REASON i bring that, Up, doug is to
what you're saying is the, game to your, point has completely,
changed so Now wisconsin needs to alter. That wisconsin was
never set to recruit nationally twenty five years, ago so
you got to do what you do. Best and if
(10:23):
you brought another guy in and you're Paying Luke, fickle
you're paying that coach when you're already strapped for nil,
funds which is the reason why we Think Luke fikel is,
struggling it only makes sense to bring him.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
BACK i also think that there's just a reasonable nature
of a four, year five year period of, Time LIKE
i think five years is honestly about unless it's an abject,
disaster abject, disaster, like, man this guy doesn't know what he's,
doing there's off the field, issues there's whatever. That now,
AGAIN sec people are, like no, firm get rid of,
him get new guy in, Here, like, okay tell me
(10:58):
where that, Works show me where the turnstile thing.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
Works, WELL i don't think that IT i don't think
that it, does BUT i think.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
Does but you do.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Think BUT i do think that THOSE sec schools have
more opportunities to bring in. Money and it's it's funny to,
hear you, KNOW Jj watt was on With pat McAfee
and they you, know asked him about the same, thing
and Jj watt is, saying you, know get better, players
And doug something that you've said when you pick THE ncaa.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Tournament who'd you pick.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Teams have the most?
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Money, yes they don't.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Have it right, now and so they got to figure
out a way on how to get more. Money and
in a, Way indiana has ruined it for. Everybody but
in a, Way indiana has also maybe shown a bit
of THE i don't know game plan on how you
need to. Succeed But indiana.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Has lots and lots and lots of. Money, like don't
get me, WRONG i Think signetty's a tremendous. COACH i
like the, SWAGGER i like THE i like all that.
Stuff but don't anybody get it. Twisted, okay they've done
a great job of piling in a bunch of money
and they haven't put it in the, stadium they haven't
putting any other. Stuff, okay they put it in the.
(12:13):
Players that was the, plan and they got more money
than everybody except for Maybe Ohio. State and that's why
they're right there with The Ohio. State. Easy it's not
that hard to figure. Out don't get me. Wrong i'm
not in any way saying he's not a tremendous. Coach
but to quote my legendary head coach At Oklahma, State Eddie,
saiden you ever seen a jackass win The Kentucky. Derby
(12:35):
get yourself From, thoroughbreds, brother get yourself From. Thoroughbreds and and.
LOOK i also think that if you get the money
and you have somebody come in who hasn't established a
culture or a way of playing or, whatever and you're piecemeiling,
it that's hard. Too THAT'S i think what happened In
Oklahama state was they had some money this, year but
(12:56):
you had old new staff and they just went and
reached for the best. Guys that, again you have to
have an. Identity here's how we want to play, well
here's the type of player who succeeds. Here even if
for a, year let's go get them and that may not.
Work you know that may not. WORK i, mean you
don't think Like i'm one game in we Played Kansas.
Day we didn't play particularly, well but we were some
(13:16):
of our. GUYS i had ten new, guys none have
been Played division one game ever in their, life SO
i knew some of them were gonna be. OVERWHELMED i
know that many of them were gonna be overwhelmed to
where they just look like like what, guys we've Played,
Bradley we're, Okay, like let's just kind of keep. Going
but the point is THAT i try to recruit guys
THAT i thought Fit Green bay AND i thought fit
(13:37):
what we're trying to, build AND i think eventually we'll get.
There but, YEAH i MEAN i just. THIS i remember.
It wisconsin was isn't built or hasn't traditionally been built
to be a portal. Program, Right and here's why THE
sec they do have more, money but they, also if we're,
honest THE sec was there was some nil or some
(13:59):
revsh chair before it became. Legal, Right so those those
revenue streams or those donors that you go to the
people who want to help the. Program and, look not
all of them who give now or get we're buying
players in the dirty. Side previously they buy a. Scoreboard
previously they buy a building on. Campus now you're, like,
hey want to buy a football. Team but those schools
(14:24):
there that it hasn't changed that. Much hasn't changed that Much.
Wisconsin it has. Changed it's also again And, dan you
went there so you can it's also fairly liberal. School
wisconsin is a conservative. State it's a liberal. School and
the one thing that liberal schools struggle with is having,
donors people who make money who are, like, YEAH i
(14:46):
want to pay a football. PLAYER i want to pay
a high school kid to come be a football. Player
go and. Look tell me the school that has a
fairly liberal base of alums that's competing in college. FOOTBALL
i would love to see. It tell me who that.
Is that's WHY i got. Friends that's Why texas is
(15:10):
probably the, one, right and that's why most people in
football THINK, A a AND m is a better job Than.
Texas even though it used to always be, harder it's
still is harder to get kids to go TO a
AND m as Both texas because it's a cult, Right
whereas Whereas texas is like It's. Austin who doesn't Like.
(15:30):
Austin it's kind of, Amazing but they have to actually
overpay BECAUSE a AND m, Is, hey they they just
want to. Win they don't care about any the other.
Speaker 3 (15:40):
STUFF i Also doug gets, like When Luke fickle was,
Hired wisconsin had really plateaued Under Paul christ But Jim
leonard took over on an interim, basis and SO i
think while The fickle stuff was, flashy maybe this doesn't
resonate as much. Anymore but there were people who Wanted
Jim leonard to have that.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
JOB i thought he was going to get that job as.
Well YEAH i. DID i did as. Well and then
and then what happens is if you don't Retain Jim,
leonard you, KNOW i lose all the guys, defense you
lose all that equity within the program really.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
Hard AND i think that there's a portion of that
audience that never ever took To Luke. Fickle And i'm
not saying everything's all, right BUT i think that that
that also can sometimes play into.
Speaker 1 (16:20):
Things Big mike actually came through with a very very
good point of a school in a liberal area that's doing.
Well it's organ it's organ great, job good, Job. Mike
the the the only counter that Is Phil knight's. Money
that's that's really. It Phil knight's, money lots and lots
(16:41):
and lots and lots of. Money but it's a it's
a great. Point it's a great point that you bringt but,
generally again it's a general. Statement it's not an absolute.
Statement but when you're and when your base of, Alums,
Okay wisconsin is it's a party. School but it's a national,
(17:02):
school a lot Like, michigan, right where a lot of
people come from the, northeast, right and they're they they
love partying at football. Games we're, like, okay, hey do
you want to give a couple thousand dollars or give
fifty thousand dollars so we can get another football? Player, like,
Oh i'm not doing. That i'm not doing. That it
takes them longer to come. Around, so but but good
(17:23):
pull for big Mic, hey who can give me a
big mic uh imitation of him Saying, oregon It's organ's
The organ's a liberal school that's doing well In.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Coloria oh Arabar. Organ it's pretty. Good great, job that's pretty.
Speaker 1 (17:41):
Good it's pretty.

saturday nine am To New Eastern. Time listen live on
Our Fox Sports radio affiliates or in The iHeartRadio app
presented by BET. Mgm. Jared let's get to some of
the games this. Weekend, uh there's always where it feels
like there's always in a weekend that has like three
or four big, games there's like an upset. There, right there's,
one LIKE i didn't see it. Coming LSU's fired their,
(19:02):
Coach Brian kelly's, gone but there's still talent that. Remains
they're five and three on the. Year bama's a ten
and a half point favorite In. Tesscaloosa is this the
game where the road dog suddenly wakes up in.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
Plays, well the thing about, It doug Is i've been
very hot and heavy On bama being my national champion
since About. August so if that does, happen it would.
Take it would be a big blow to my. Ego
BUT i do think when you look AT lsu not
short on, talent they're short on. Execution So bama cannot
take this game. Lightly the one THING i see WHEN
i WATCH lsu they're good at getting after the passer
(19:35):
And bama struggles to pick up blitzes with the offensive
line seventy fourth and pressure eight this. Year the one
THING i noticed About bama's offensive, line Especially procter on
the left, side the left. Tackle he's a massive. Hume
he's like three hundred and sixty. Pounds struggles with the speed. Rush,
well they Face South carolina last week or two weeks
ago before they're by and that is something That South
carolina does really. Well they Face missouri a few weeks.
Ago that's Something missouri does really. Well really good defensive
(19:57):
line that can really get around the edge with their pass.
RUSH lsu not as gifted in that pressure rate. CATEGORY
i think they're good at you, know stopping the. Run
but they don't have that really gifted pass rusher off the,
edge AND i think is going to get In bama's
face and really make life difficult For Ty.
Speaker 6 (20:14):
Simpson the one THING i noticed About.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
Bama's pass rush is it's non existent this. Year they
have one GUY i mentioned his name, Before Yanse. Pierre
he's their one real edge. Rusher that's a. Problem LSU's
offensive lines really struggle to protect this. Year the one
thing That Garrett nusmeyer does really well one of the
shortest average time to throw rates in college, football about
two and a half. Seconds When bama is able to get,
(20:38):
pressure it's typically on quarterbacks that hold onto the ball
a little bit too. Long SO i can see a
world where Nuss meyer gets in a little.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Bit of a.
Speaker 5 (20:44):
Rhythm LSU's got some really talented. Receivers they've got a
freaked tight end trade As green six, seven two, forty
SO i could definitely see them hanging around in this.
Game BUT i think the one Thing bama has showed
me this year is they are better in the bigger.
Moments AND i think maybe they don't cover the, spread
BUT i definitely See bama winning this. Game and, yeah
you could make the case for the debt cat, bounce
(21:04):
the dead, tiger bounce, off the head coach. Firing but
at the end of the, DAY i Think bama executes
better AND i think they get the job.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Done This Doug Gottlieb show here On Fox Sports, RADIO
U Jered smith's our. Guest let's get to some of
those big games you. MENTIONED A Zoo they're a seven
point dog at. Home they lost two of their last. Three,
uh they're the. Classic, hey we've just beaten. Everybody we're
better than haven't been anybody who's better than. Us they
GET a AND. M some people HAVE am and m's
number one team in the. Country vegas HAS a AND
(21:32):
m as a seven point favorite on the road In,
columbia the totals forty eight and a. Half what's your?
Speaker 5 (21:37):
Lead, Yeah i'll be. HONEST i Think missouri here is
in a world of. TROUBLE i do like their front.
Speaker 6 (21:43):
SEVEN i honestly.
Speaker 5 (21:44):
Do Zion, Young Damon, wilson The georgia, transfer And chris
McClellan in the middle of the defensive Tackle, like those
are three guys that are gonna Be sunday football. Players no,
doubt but they're down to their third string quarterback essentially
from the, Preseason Matt. Zaler So i'm a little bit
worried THAT a AND, m which, is you, know they
don't have a weakness this.
Speaker 6 (22:02):
YEAR a AND.
Speaker 5 (22:02):
M they're very talented at all. LEVELS i really like their.
OFFENSE i Love Marcel. Reed he's one of the best
play action passers in the. Country missoo has struggled to
defend play action this, year so establishing the run is
going to be. Huge they need a mod hardy to
just be a Free he leads all power for backs
seven hundred and twenty two yards after first contact this,
year so he's not going to be afraid of, running you,
know into the teeth of AN a AND m defensive
(22:24):
line that you would imagine is going to stack the.
Box because Again missouri's down to their third string quarterback
at true, freshman who has a lot of. Potential but
this is a very difficult spot for. SURE i will
mention a wrinkle. HERE i have heard some whispers from
My Penn state people That Eli drinkwitz might be the.
Guy nothing confirmed, Yet, obviously as you know in the coaching,
world these things have a way of moving very. Fluidly
(22:46):
but If missouri does lose this game and they suffer
their third loss on they're out of THE, cfp that
could be another thing to watch going forward For.
Speaker 6 (22:53):
Missouri is their prep?
Speaker 5 (22:56):
Hampered it all from the fact That i'm Sure Eli
drinkwitz is taking a lot of interviews even With Penn,
state and there's a bunch of other, openings.
Speaker 6 (23:01):
So he's one of the.
Speaker 5 (23:03):
Names and Also Mike elko that has come up repeatedly
in these.
Speaker 6 (23:07):
National head coaching.
Speaker 5 (23:08):
Searches So i'm fascinated to see which team has that, edge,
right that mental edge in this, game and if either
of those distractions are gonna play out onto the, FIELD
i would LEAN a AND m on the road is
tough in THE, sec BUT i think they're the better
team and they definitely have the better.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Quarterback Oregon Iowa Iowa. City oregon's a six and a
half point. Favorite totals forty one and a.
Speaker 6 (23:27):
Half, yeah big weather.
Speaker 5 (23:29):
Game i'm seeing this total move down significantly from forty.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Four.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
Now you, know we saw it touch forty and then
we saw a little bit of buye. Back, OBVIOUSLY i
don't know how bad the weather will be until we
get to game time On.
Speaker 6 (23:38):
Saturday But i'll be honest WHEN i Watch, oregon.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
Hold, on hold, On, jared we, Do, sam what's the
weather gonna?
Speaker 7 (23:43):
Be, Like i've seen afternoon light rain quarter to a half.
INCH i was just actually gonna go back and check it,
again But i've seen not like a heavy, downpour But
i've seen rain in the forecast for the.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
Afternoon choper.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Five we're high Above Iowa. City we want to confront those. Weather,
SORRY i just if it Was Iowa. City sam's got
that thing. Unlocked we know, that.
Speaker 5 (24:05):
AND i, mean and that's a very important anecdote in
this game BECAUSE i think.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
If you asked me which team needs better.
Speaker 5 (24:12):
Weather, more it's Obviously oregon because they're more of a
of a you, know a throwing team than Than. Iowa
i'll be, honest, though even if the weather is, GOOD
i don't know how Good oregon. Is and that's the.
Question they only have one win over a team with
a winning record this, year and That's. Northwestern they're winning
At Penn. State we thought that was gonna be their,
moment but that that wins age like. Milk and If
iowa wins this, game right like we haven't you mentioned
(24:34):
that what's the? Upset what's the game that no one's
talking about that all of a sudden is going to
be an upset. Alert everyone is kind of Dismissing iowa
and they just Think oregon is the best team in
this game and they're gonna come Into Iowa city and.
Roll as A Penn state, FAN i can tell you
strange things happen In Iowa, city things that you don't.
Speaker 6 (24:51):
Expect this would definitely upset the apple.
Speaker 5 (24:54):
Cart AND i think when you look at the first
batch of THE cfp, Rankings oregon is not very highly
regarded as a one loss team right.
Speaker 6 (25:02):
Now so they need this win really.
Speaker 5 (25:04):
Bad and if they don't get, it and they don't
have any, chance, obviously even if they win this, game
they still might not have a chance to make it
into The Big ten championship. Game they need a signature
win right, now and if they lose this, game they
might be a two loss team that's out of the
colleg football, playoff which woul be, wild but it is very.
POSSIBLE i do like The ducks running, game though they
have three guys with at least three hundred rush yards this.
Year Whittington davison and Deer, hill the. Freshman these guys are,
(25:27):
big they're, thick they're. Physical iowa obviously very good. Defensively
the one thing That Dante moore doesn't do, well that
he really failed to do in The indiana game was
play against you throw against zone. Coverage indiana has a very, good,
talented complex zone. Scheme that's What iowa, Runs So i'm
fascinated to see How Dante moore handles that on the
road in bad weather in a spot where you think
(25:48):
i was going to generate some of their ground game.
Too SO i Think iowa is very live. Here i'm
definitely taking the points with The.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Hawkys Texas tech HOSTING. Byu Texas tech's only lost of
the year was on the road In Arizona. State they
have one like OPPONENT byu struggle with, them but one
Against utah in The Holy, War Texas tech smashed. Him
tech is a ten and a half point favorite at
home fifty one and a half to. Total who do you?
Speaker 5 (26:13):
Like, yeah how about that undefeated team double digit dog
this late in the, Year so, again it kind of
tells you how the market doesn't RESPECT byu and what they've,
done and they really Respect Texas. Tech WHEN i Watch
Texas tech on, film they are, big very. Big they
don't play a lot of nickel. Either they will take
that linebacker, right that weak side, linebacker and they'll put
them out in coverage and they'll he'll play a whole curl.
(26:33):
Spot so you're not gonna take advantage of them running
it down the throat because they just they play a
lot of base defense and they're just a very, big physical.
TEAM i love their offensive, Coordinator Mark. Leftwich he was
coaching high school football like eight years ago and now
he's an oc, at a power for.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
School he's very.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
Sharp they play fast and a lot of, fun you,
know unique presnat.
Speaker 6 (26:54):
Motions they play really.
Speaker 5 (26:56):
Fast WHEN i say really, FAST i mean they can't
even get the stick set before they're running a. Play
so how IS byu gonna handle?
Speaker 2 (27:01):
That i'll be.
Speaker 5 (27:02):
Fascinated we Know Barren morton's been dealing with an. INJURY
i noticed on film Against Kansas state he was kind
of favoring his lower body a little.
Speaker 6 (27:09):
Bit he's kind of an.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
Overstrider how healthy is he because they're gonna need him
because on the other, Side, bachmeyer this, court this freshman FOR, Byu.
Speaker 6 (27:16):
Doug this kid IS i love this. Kid he is
a fun WATCH.
Speaker 5 (27:20):
Byu also a very big football Team bachmeyer six two two.
Twenty you got their STUD x Receiver Chase roberts six
four two. Fifteen, uh the running Back martin six two two.
Twenty the offensive line is all three, ten three fifteen and.
Above so this is gonna be a, big physical football.
Game at the line of, scrimmage the market Says Texas,
tech but, man it's tough not to take points WITH.
BYU i THINK i trust the market in this. SCENARIO
(27:41):
i Think Texas tech probably out physicals. Them But i'll be.
Honest bachmeyer has a chance to steal this, game AND
i think his ascension in the ranks of college football
is gonna be very fun to watch over the next
couple of.

Speaker 3 (29:19):
Doug we talked about the great slate of games In week.
Ten in, fact there's a rematch In miami of a
game That Jason stewart AND i saw earlier this. Year
It's buffalo and The. Dolphins we saw The dolphins hang
with The bills for a, while but ultimately The bills
got the. Win buffalo is an eight and a half
point favorite in this. Contest i'm not even picking this.
(29:40):
GAME i bring it up because earlier this year the
forty Nine ers escaped with a huge overtime victory against The.
Rams the forty Nine ers have been decimated by, injuries
but they're playing in The Bay area with The rams
a four and a half point. Favorite i'll tell you,
what something just doesn't seem. Right these teams play crazy.
(30:01):
Games give me the forty Nine ers plus four and
a half in THAT Nfc west. Showdown, ooh al, right
like that?
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Down, OKAY i was, saying thank, you all.
Speaker 7 (30:15):
Right i'm looking at number Two indiana on the road
At Penn. STATE iu appears to be about a fourteen
and a half point. FAVORITE i don't know What Penn
state has to like to play. For they're not gonna
go to a bowl, game like they'd have to win
three out of their final whatever mini, games four games
to go to a bowl and finish six and. Six
they're own to five in The Big, Ten SO i
(30:36):
Think indiana goes in there and wins by more than
fourteen and a. Half i'm gonna take The hoosiers to
win by more to cover the fourteen and a Half Penn.
State they're just trying to get to the end of the.
Season indiana has been clobbering people left and right outside Of.
Iowa so give me The hoosiers to cover the fourteen
and a.
Speaker 1 (30:52):
Half very, nice very. Nice i'm gonna stick with college.
Football what? Out what? About you know? What what what
happens to these? Teams do they lose their coach and
guys go in the portal Is it can be just,
devastating And god Bless. Indiana they're gonna benefit from. It
(31:16):
they're going to take on The Penn state And Nitney,
lions and this would have been game of The year
For indiana after the course of The game of The
year pens if For. Oregon, uh they're a fourteen and
a half point. FAVORITE i don't think it will even
be that. Competitive indiana sees that championship finish. Line they
know that style points actually matter in the. CALCULATION i
like The hoosiers to, win The hoosiers to cover In Happy.
Speaker 8 (31:39):
Valley what that picks? On it exactly the same As.
SAM'S i, know, RIGHT.
Speaker 1 (31:45):

it's just a. Dislocation there's no damage there to ligaments and.
Tenants you pop it in. Place you probably put one
of those big, braces the metal braces, there so he
