Speaker 4 (02:08):
Gentlemen here we are yeah.

Speaker 3 (02:10):
Welcome in.

Speaker 1 (02:11):
You guys are having a conversation about Nebraska Maryland more
so gambling, more so gambling.

Speaker 5 (02:16):
But you know, every conversation that William and I have
about Nebraska has happened in your presence. We have never
talked about Nebraska behind your back.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
I don't believe that. That's knowlan will comes and he's
a guy that gets you in the corner and he'll
tell you about the Huscars whether you like it or not.
Similar to what he said a couple of weeks ago
about Chef Josh, like that is.

Speaker 4 (02:37):
Chef Jack cheff Jackie.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
Josh was staring at the Josh as a jack of corn.
But when we were saying, you're like you love Nebraska
this week over Maryland. I feel very confident about Nebraska
covering against Maryland as well. And tell you said it's
your favorite pick of the week because a few weeks
ago at the bust And Bowl, it was also your
favorite pick of the week for Nebraska.

Speaker 5 (02:56):
Which makes you think, haven't I doubled down on being
guarded before I say something like that again?

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Now it does? Yeah, now it does. I wasn't before,
but now you've really you've really sold me.

Speaker 5 (03:06):
Can I tell you this, both of you? I would
like to tell everyone in the room. This so a
high level mustache type. An executive at a media company
text me last week. It was Wednesday night. It was
like eight o'clock. The episode had just dropped. He said,
you know what, man, you guys are a great chemistry
on that show. It's a great mixture of there's enough
meat on the bone for the analytical types, there's enough

(03:28):
humor for the casual types. Not that we're just looking
to attract casuals here, but I said, thanks, man, And
then I was sitting there thinking to myself as I
drove in this morning. It's really easy to have fun
and be lighthearted the first half of the season, But
then you start looking at the records every week. Then
the pumpkins come out and you try and lock in,
and you tend to get a little more serious the
second half of the year. So what I think we

(03:48):
have to do is we have to guard against that.

Speaker 4 (03:50):
We have to be the.

Speaker 5 (03:50):
Right level of serious but also the right level of fun.
And what do we have if we don't have fun?

Speaker 3 (03:56):
Yeah, and that brings me to the commissioner's full good
level of serious, this good level of fun. Georgia Tech
Top ten haven't lost the game. Yeah, over Miszoo, who's undefeated.
Sell me on why Georgia Tech is over Missoo. And look,
this is very small, it's ten or eleven. You can,
like you said, with one and two, I'll state Miami,

(04:16):
you can swap them. But why in your brain is
it am I going to troll the country with this one?

Speaker 5 (04:23):
Because no, no, it's not that I'm just nodding along
with your statement. I'm not saying yes, you're right.

Speaker 3 (04:27):
Okay, So talk to me about how Georgia Tech's what
two best wins are Clemson, who we know about now,
they're not even in your poll. Wake Forest they escaped
that game. Then you look at Miszoo beating Kansas, beating
South Carolina. I would say that those couple wins would
outweigh what we know about Clemson now and a little,

(04:50):
you know, kind of a fluky game there at the
end with a wake Forest team.

Speaker 5 (04:53):
So last night, when we were putting the Commissioner's pull together,
I was sitting at our table in our studio and
there were two of them. One was one that you're
going to bring up. The other was this. It was
Missouri and it was who you just mentioned Georgia Tech.
So it was like coin flip either way. So eventually
we take five minutes on it, and I said, just
put him down in whatever order. So that was basically

(05:14):
the extent of what it came down to. Would it
make you feel better if I flipped them?

Speaker 3 (05:18):
Yeah? It would.

Speaker 4 (05:18):
Well, I can't do it because we already made.

Speaker 5 (05:20):
The graphic, but I'd be.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Able to put out an official statement of a little
notes at screenshot.

Speaker 4 (05:26):
We could do that. We could do that.

Speaker 5 (05:27):
But the good news for Missouri is they got Alabama
this week, which we're going to talk about in the show.
So if they beat Alabama, no one's arguing them or
Georgia Tech.

Speaker 4 (05:35):
They're like solidly in the top ten, top eight, top six, whatever.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
All right, so you can go ahead and talk about
the second question I'm going to ask because I don't even.

Speaker 4 (05:43):
Need to ask. Yeah, all right, so I'll read his
lines on the prompter here.

Speaker 5 (05:46):
How could you possibly have roll it Cincinnati over Nebraska?

Speaker 4 (05:51):
And it's a great question, all right.

Speaker 5 (05:53):
If it were week two or week three, we would
have to strictly honor the head to head. We have
gotten six weeks into the season now, so I've got
a little bit more than just head to head. So
I looked at Cincinnati last week and what they did
against Iowa State, and Iowa stayed at that point was
in my top fifteen, and I thought they beat them.
It kind of had like a Miami fsu vibe where
the final score was way closer than the game was,

(06:14):
so pretty emphatic result against Iowa State. At that point,
I think I had them a little bit behind Nebraska,
so then that bumped them a little bit ahead of Nebraska.
So I think the resume overall has enough meat on
the bone where there's a little bit more juice in
the Cincinnati corner to where I didn't go head to head,
because if they were just equals, I would have gone
head to head.

Speaker 4 (06:34):
I would have put Nebraska ahead of Cincinnati.

Speaker 3 (06:36):
Right, Just take Cincinnati's resume, add three points in. That's Nebraska,
That's right. So just something to think about next, Just
something to think about. We got to take care of
business down in Maryland. But we have a lot of
great games we're talking about here. We got Michigan, USC Oklahoma, Texas,
Ohio State, Illinois, Alabama, Missouri, we got Indiana, Oregon. We
got some dogs in the week, which, by the way,
your boy is six and one on his Dogs of

(06:57):
the Week for the year. What's is Josh pay six
and one as well? Five and we're both five and one,
two and four, Taylor two and four on dogs.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
Parlay.

Speaker 3 (07:08):
We lost to Parlay last week. That's hand up my fault.
I moved the line Nebraska minus sixteen and a half.
They should have covered that. Michigan State had a trash
touchdown at the end of the game. But let's talk
the first game of the week, said up twenty one
fourteen yeah, and then the Whiskers woke up twenty four unanswered, gotcha.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
The original line?

Speaker 1 (07:24):
Nah fuck, we're we're talking about the Parlay line movement
we had here, right. Years are doing great in win
loss categories that don't count towards the Showiny, I probably
need to do a better job of focusing on my
parlay and my Dog of the week. I just put
everything into these five games that we talked about every
single I mean and look, I'm moving off.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
I'm moving off the Huskers for everybody this week. I
got a different I got a different team than the Parlay.
That's big love the Huskers. That's a big of you.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
The first game you talked about is near and dear
to my heart, it's Michigan at USC. USC is favored
minus two and a half. This game is at night
in the Coliseum, and the total points in that game
is fifty seven and a half. I would love to
just go on a rampage about Michigan and how they're
going to dominate. And I do think toughness beats pretty

(08:10):
nine times out of ten. But Jordan Mayava, the quarterback
for USC, he does great against the blitz who bits
is the most in all power for Michigan. So his
I think is all completion percentage against the blitz is
like eighty seven and a half percent. He's only taken
one sack. So there's a lot of areas if you're
a Michigan fan to be nervous about this game. This

(08:32):
is what I'll say about that. Everybody that USC has
played from a blitzing standpoint is a pedestrian defense compared
to Michigan hasn't played Derreck Moore, who's going to be
a Day two pick, Jayshawn Barram, who's going to be
a Day one pick. Both of our linebackers are going
to get drafted in the NFL. We got a front
seven that's willing to murder you, and we got that
safety what's his name, Hillman? What's your favorite player in
college football? Brandon Hillman? My god. Couple that with Bryce

(08:55):
Underwood going for two seventy last week, running for over
one hundred and twenty five yards against the number one
rush defense in all the country. I'm obviously biased in
the situation. I'm going to take Michigan money line. I'm biased.
I understand that. I'll let you guys break down the
logic of everything else, because right now I can't look

(09:15):
at it any other way. But I am nervous. For
me to say I'm not nervous. Is everybody that's watching
at home right now, I think can smell it through
their Yeah, I am this is this is a a
little rattle. He's not even yell. And I sat there
before the show, is like, this is the game. Like,
if you don't win this game, it's all right, eyes
got to be on twenty six because you got the

(09:35):
quarterback yellow things. But this is the game. It's like,
who are we going to be?

Speaker 4 (09:39):
Wow?

Speaker 1 (09:40):
And I'm nervous about it. You know, you're a part
of at the end of the year.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
The part that I hate is that, like, you drop
this game, it's all eyes on twenty six, Like there's
still so much.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
We're in week seven, but still all eyes on twenty
six for me.

Speaker 5 (09:54):
So the only loss you have is Oklahoma, it's out
of one, out of conference game. Won that game, first
conference loss. We're moving on to twenty six.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
Listen, man, it's you got to beat USC's ass here.
I mean, you look back at the last the last
time we played, we could not throw the ball. We
had no four pass. We had it turned off in
our settings if you're playing.

Speaker 4 (10:15):
A video game, it's still two ninety on the ground.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
And we put and we did a two minute drill
at the end of the game to win, and we
just ran the ball up the middle. The USC has
gotten bigger on the defensive side of the ball and
the offensive side of the ball, and the trenches, the
boys growing up a little bit out there on the
West coast, they've gotten bigger. But you play on the
Illinois game, it's like, oh, there's the game plan right there.
If you are a tough football team to beat USC.

Speaker 4 (10:39):
Yeah, what's the matter with you?

Speaker 1 (10:42):
I'm just nervous this is me, This is me and
my like my fandom being like, bro, I gotta have
it the lastchi.

Speaker 5 (10:49):
Last time I watched this team go on the road,
was it? Nebraska? Was that the last road game? And
I mean I had the pleasure, the distinct honor of
standing next to you. I've never seen a chest that big,
I've never seen eyes that wide. I've never seen confidence
ooze out of a person. And they validated your belief.
And now, Lincoln Riley, that's Lincoln Riley.

Speaker 4 (11:11):
Has you shook?

Speaker 1 (11:13):
You ran for?

Speaker 4 (11:18):
I just expected more from your true self.

Speaker 1 (11:20):
I listen regardless of who else is sitting on the set.
Nebraska was a much less talented team, much more beneath Michigan.
I knew that, and their game plan showed that hurt people,
hurt people. That that's truly like that. I've said that vocally,
like I just think Nebraska wasn't there from a talent
stand point. USC matches up well against Michigan. I gave

(11:42):
you the blitz stat lemon. They're getting another wide receiver back.
Their quarterback can run the ball as well as past
the ball. They have a good offense, and so I'm
excited to watch this defense stand up. But then I
watched the Wisconsin game. There's a lot of holes when
you're blitzing that much. Lincoln Martindale, he's blitzing more than
he did last year, and I was getting a little
nervous about that. So this is like a nervous game
for me. Luckily I'm not playing Saturday. I get to

(12:04):
get off a plane because we're gonna get back real
fast clump from the Red River rivalry. I'm gonna rush
my ass home. I'm gonna put that thing on and
I'm gonna be excited for every single snap. But as
I sit here, I can't you know. I'm looking at
it my record. I have a standard to uphold for
the people that are watching me eighteen and fourteen, and
I just think, listen, I am biased. I'm in a
blender about this one. I think it's gonna work out
for us, but I'm a little nervous.

Speaker 4 (12:26):
Do you want to go?

Speaker 3 (12:27):
Sure we could talk some ball. I think Michigan's a
good football team. I think when I was watching, when
I was going back and looking at the USC Illinois game,
like USC fumbling on the first drive. Illinois one of
their scores is a double reverse touchdown. USC had a
massive play a touchdown call back for an illegal man downfield,
and when they had to have it, USC got very

(12:49):
lucky with the fumble recovery. Before halftime, Buddy was down,
his elbow was down. USC gets some football, but there's
forty nine seconds left before halftime and they go down
sixty five yards. They don't punch it in, they're inside
the ten. They end up kicking a field goal, and
then at the end of the game when they had
to go up one, they're marching down the field fast.
I personally think USC has too much offense for Michigan

(13:11):
because Michigan's gonna have to keep up. And when we
sat on the show and talked about Illinois USC and
it was like, you know, I basically just said, why
not Illinois. We talked about how they would have to
make it a phone booth game because they can run
the ball pretty well, but honestly, it wasn't even very
much like a phone booth game.

Speaker 1 (13:25):
Like Luke Altenheimer.

Speaker 6 (13:27):
Altmeyer Altenheimer, Luke Oltenheimer, Luke Oltenheimer's twenty for twenty six,
like three hundred and twenty plus yards, Like he's got
some good drop back game where he's slinging it around,
painting it near the sideline, everything else.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
And when I watch Michigan's offense, there's not a lot
of true pass game. It's you got to move the pocket,
it's play action, it's perimeter, it's run game. And I
just don't think offensively they're built to kind of keep
up with USC, because in my opinion, USC's gonna score.
So when I look at this game and then I
look at just Haynes, you look at he's got what

(14:01):
six hundred and fifty four yards on the season. Five
carries of those go for like three hundred and five yards,
Like half of his carries are from or half of
his yards are from five carries, five explosive plays where
he's untouched running to the end zone.

Speaker 1 (14:15):
So I just I feel like USC. And here's just
a stat too. USC.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
Since twenty twenty two, since Lincoln Rally showed up as
a home favorite, they're eighteen and two after a bye
week there, five and one. That's a paper pop.

Speaker 4 (14:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:30):
I just I like USC in this spot. I think Michigan,
I think they're a little too inconsistent right now on offense,
and right now it's like, if I want to go Michigan,
I'm kind of hanging my hat on a couple of
just explosive plays happening, because they'll have three and outs,
you know, they'll they'll just drives that are kind of weird,
where whether Bryce is overthrowing a little bit, a receiver
dropping a football. So I'm gonna go usc.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
Here marsh five star freshman, four receptions for eighty yards,
Donovan mccoley six reception for one hundred and twelve yards
last game. Pushing the ball down the field. Yeah, pushing
the ball.

Speaker 5 (15:05):
So you mentioned the explosive plays from Michigan, and I've
been caught in this trap before. I've been caught in
the trap. Hey, as long as SO and SO limits
the explosive run, Like, I've been caught in that trap
of let's take Justice Haynes one or two long runs away.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
What else did he do?

Speaker 1 (15:21):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (15:22):
Otherwise he was two point seven yards per carry and
then he pops two explosive runs on me, and it's irrelevant,
Like if he does it every game, it's irrelevant. So
last year, in this game, Michigan had touchdown runs of
fifty three to forty one. They had a sixty three
yard run to set up the game winner. So they
had it in this game. Last year, they had it
without a quarterback. That was any threat to throw the

(15:43):
ball last year. Now you at least have a threat
to throw the ball. You got a good tailback tandem again,
but you really got a good lead tailback. What I
am very curious about is what if USC grabs a lead.
What if they can just get up seventeen to three.
What if they forced Michigan into a really unfamiliar spot,
a spot that I don't know if we trust them
to come from behind. I don't know if we trust

(16:03):
them to throw the ball to win the game. But
that's gamescript stuff. So if it doesn't start that way,
if it's just a standardized game, what I have trouble
doing is I have trouble blindly trusting USC to win
a fistfight. If you could turn the game into that,
which Michigan will because it's their identity. Very rarely do
they face one of these teams and not at least

(16:23):
insert the physical element into the game. Most of the
times they win those games. At the very least they
insert that element into the game. So the one thing
I remember about the Oklahoma game is Oklahoma got after
Underwood a little bit. They pressure them a little bit,
and USC is not going to garner respect defensively nationally.

Speaker 4 (16:40):
And that's okay.

Speaker 5 (16:41):
They are a top twenty five pressure rate team. So
if you can't run the ball on early downs, they
do have the ability, if they earn the right to
rush the passer, they do have the ability to pressure Underwood.
So I've maken the case for USC. But then I
remember the Nebraska game, namely, afterwards, You're laid out behind me.
I'm at least able to sy up, but I'm on
camera talking about how Michigan did it to me again,

(17:04):
how I picked against them again, how I had a
Michigan problem. So I've worked on my Michigan problem quietly.
I don't want to be labeled a hero, but I've
done the work off camera. I've done the work in
the dark so that I can come to you in
the light and say, if I'm going to be wrong here,
I'm going to be wrong riding with Michigan. I'm taking
Michigan to win the game. It feels so weird for

(17:25):
the words to come out of my mouth.

Speaker 4 (17:26):
I'm taking Michigan. It feels it feels something. Yeah, I'm
taking Michigan to win.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
This is what life's all about. It is just feeling
something in general.

Speaker 3 (17:34):
Yeah, a little dopamine.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
You've got to feel something.

Speaker 4 (17:36):
So if we go down, we're going down together.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
I love that. I love having you on my side
for this one. And it's very fitting that Will takes
USC in this.

Speaker 4 (17:43):
But hey, but hey, it's not personal, brother.

Speaker 1 (17:45):
I know it's not you like the shiny object.

Speaker 3 (17:47):
I get it.

Speaker 1 (17:48):
It's more like like, if this game, this game, if
this is not a personal I don't think it's personal
at all. Go ahead.

Speaker 3 (17:55):
I was just gonna say, if this game is at Michigan,
I'm probably going the other way because I just think
these teams, like we have so much evidence of outside
of like a team like Ohio State, but you have
just the evidence of teams just struggling, especially more so
in the first half when they're traveling to a coast
game or the West Coast is coming come to the Midwest,
or you look at Maryland and Washington last week. Washington

(18:17):
ends up getting that game, but it was twenty to
nothing going into the Plus border. And again it's just
like the USC's offense I just watched them, like they
have some really good players. I think they're gonna have
a good plan and have a bad taste in their
mouth losing a game they shouldn't have to Illinois and
having a bye week to kind of sit on it.
But yeah, should we go to the red River Shootout?

(18:39):
Red River rivalry?

Speaker 4 (18:40):
We should?

Speaker 3 (18:40):
What is it? So?

Speaker 1 (18:41):
I heard you saving the conversation?

Speaker 3 (18:42):
What is the Yeah? When I was born, college football commissioner.
He's a historian.

Speaker 5 (18:47):
Now, when I was born, the game is called the
red River Shootout. Okay, somewhere along the way it got changed,
but I never changed it.

Speaker 3 (18:54):
You never did.

Speaker 4 (18:54):
So in my mind as the red River Shootout.

Speaker 5 (18:56):
The banners can say whatever they want to, the field
can be spray painted whatever.

Speaker 4 (18:59):
It wants to. It's the red River shoot Out of
my household.

Speaker 3 (19:02):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (19:02):
Hey, well, do you know Michel Bolsers had this fun
idea you play for an Ultra. It's like the fun
little competition is going down.

Speaker 3 (19:07):
It's simple. It is this simple. You want to play
for an Ultra for us in the shop. Around the shop,
it's been rock paper scissors. Would you like it? Would
you like another? Go to play for an Ultra right now.
You're two and on the show right now, right now,
so this is yours. Yeah, I'll be right back with that.
Shoot yeah, one two three, shoot one two three shoot. Okay,

(19:29):
one two three shoot. But hey, that's what it's all about,
bragging rights. Superior taste better when you're a winner.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
Superiors. We're playing for yes, Michelo Ultra Superior light beer.
And that pisses me off. Not the beer, but what
just happened? How do I go in the stream room
and dominate everybody and then this ship's got to happen here?
Back to the episode Texas' favorite one and a half
last week? Did that happen?

Speaker 4 (19:59):
How does that?

Speaker 1 (20:00):
Last week you hated Texas?

Speaker 4 (20:01):
How does that picked? There were some narratives created out there.

Speaker 1 (20:05):
Telling there were people saying Josh Payton hates Texas, hates them,
He thinks arch maning is a bust. He actually doesn't
think any of the meanings were actually that good. They
were held up on their teams.

Speaker 4 (20:16):
I should go right for the New York Times. Maybe
that's what I should do.

Speaker 3 (20:20):
You got the Red River shootout, you're choosing to not
go to it because Texas is there.

Speaker 5 (20:24):
Texas chose for me not to go to it. Texas
screwed it up. I didn't screw my trip to Dallas up.
Texas screwed my trip.

Speaker 4 (20:31):
To Dallas up.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
What does that mean for you? In this game?

Speaker 5 (20:35):
Texas is going to win. Texas is going to win
the game, Make no mistake about it. I wasn't a
Texas hater. I was a Texas truth teller last week.
I've been an Oklahoma truth teller all year. Did we
not sit around this table in the preseason and have
me tell you? Give me John Matteir for the Heisman?
Did I not tell you in the Commissioner's poll give
me Oklahoma top ten? Did I not say these things?

(20:58):
Did I not say last week Texas is in trouble
in the swamp? In fact, gimme Florida to win the game?

Speaker 4 (21:04):
Outright? Did I not bear the burden of being labeled
a Texas hater last week? The answer to all these
questions is yes.

Speaker 5 (21:11):
So I think what that makes me is an authority
on this game because I quite literally haven't been wrong
about either of these teams all year.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
The sheriff is in Dallas, so.

Speaker 5 (21:21):
We walk into that, Well, actually, you guys walk into Dallas.
I'll be in Missouri, but people walk into Dallas on Saturday. Yeah,
they've moved this game to three point thirty Eastern, two
thirty Central. Used to be an eleven am kickoff. Whatever.

Speaker 1 (21:32):
You're so much an authority like, you don't have to
go to the game.

Speaker 3 (21:35):
You're just sending us to the game.

Speaker 5 (21:37):
Yes, I'm dispatching you too, Yeah, yes, yes. Texas has
struggled offensively goes without saying all right, the same principles
that were in play for Florida last week. The reason
I liked Florida to win is because when you sucked
doing something a certain way, you have the least incentive
in the world to continue doing that thing that way.

(21:57):
I think Texas and their coaching staff did a whole
lot more out of this offensive line. But okay, you
got what you got right now. But you still do
have scholarship Texas offensive linemen there, you still do have
a really highly paid staff.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
There.

Speaker 5 (22:09):
You've got a sponge in your hand. You thought it
was full of water. You didn't even have to squeeze it. Okay,
well it turns out you got to squeeze the sponge harder.
But there's still enough water in there. You're still good enough.
Arch Manning quietly has improved. If he wasn't being pressured
on like half of his drop backs, it would be nice.
He's having to bear the brun of all the scrutiny,
and Texas's offensive line is woefully underachieved. I had a

(22:30):
paper popper stat Their tailbacks have done nothing like Texas
running backs nine rushes for eleven yards against Florida. So
no one else is doing anything either. It's just the
New York Times doesn't want to ride about Texas running
backs or left guards. They want to write about arch Manning.
I don't think Oklahoma's run the ball worth anything either

(22:50):
outside of John Mateir their tailbacks against powerful competition under
three yards per carry. That isn't even to mention whether
Mati is going to play, and if he plays, is
he one hundred percent? If he's not one hundred percent,
Hawkins has to go. He was not good against Kent.
I know they blue Kent stayed out. He was not good.
So they need to win by scoring seventeen or something

(23:11):
like that, and just need to hold Texas to like
single digits. If John Matteer does play, I still wonder
is he one hundred percent, and if he is, even
I wonder if they have a complementary enough ground game
that Texas has to respect the cap buster plays. In
other words, I wonder if those are there, because if
they're not, and they may not be there for Texas either,

(23:32):
you just get into a slug fest in those type
of games. I just love the more desperate team, and
I do think there's some plays there to be made
for arch Manning. So I'm going to say the same
thing this week that I said last week. I said
I don't think there's a huge gap between Florida Texas,
and everyone thought that was insane and in Florida one,
I know the records and the rankings say otherwise. In

(23:52):
this one game setting Saturday and Dallas, I don't think
there's that big gap between Texas. Ou I'm taking the
more desperate team. I think Texas wins defense respect struggling buddy.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
I feel great after that.

Speaker 3 (24:08):
You know how, I'm obsessed with wounded animals to begin with,
Like I'm thinking, i think I'm gonna what an out.

Speaker 4 (24:13):
Of context clip to be taken later.

Speaker 3 (24:15):
Yeah, yeah, i'msed like rob Zombies Halloween. Oh god, you
guys remember that one. No, we're talking about spooptober Rob, Zombies, Halloween.
I know he's got three movies.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
The Yeah, the Halloween where he kind of it was
Michael Myers and yeah, I remember.

Speaker 3 (24:32):
We kind of yeah it was you that yeah Spookie season.
But I was like, yeah, I was so up in
the air about this game, so up in the air,
like I I honestly, I just didn't know which way
I wanted to go. It's like, you got I love
by the way that Chapotle King. You know, you get
on the Reddit, the channels that are promoting that, they

(24:52):
talked to Jeo Material said, hell, yeah, I'm gonna play
in this game. Anybody close to Jeo MATERI, if it's
up to him, he's gonna play in this game. I
hope he gets playing this game because I want to
see I want to see your Oklahoma team that you've
been talking about all year long. Yes you have called
that was beautiful, by the way, what you just did
was beautiful. And I think too. It's like, I'm so

(25:13):
pissed off about the way Texas performed last week because
I truly believed in that defense, that veteran defense that
I was talking about that was that's not only been
top five this year, but top five last year, and
I think it is. I think it's one of those
gut check situations defensively, like when you're watching that film
and then talking about a game like Oklahoma about how
badly you need it. I think they bounced back in

(25:35):
a big way of Jeo Matier or not. So I
was wanting to go Texas game and you just absolutely
sold me.

Speaker 4 (25:42):
So mm, which just leaves one give.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
Me Oklahoma, especially if I'm with your plays. I love
the Reddit, I love the Chipotle, I love Vena Bulls defense.
I think if love Dobson, I love Dobson. If Texas
hasn't been able to operate against these other teams, how
this was to operate again, it's Brent Benna Bulls defense. Wow,
I mean arch Manning, He's had a tough one. I
don't want to throw salt in the wom when it

(26:06):
comes to the many family friends of the show, friends
of the show, But when I look at Oklahoma and
I have to relive in my head how they kind
of dominated Michigan in the way Michigan likes to play.
They took their identity. The said don't worry about that.
We're gonna put you in a blender for four quarters.
I look at Oklahoma and I'm like, if Mateer plays
one eighty seventy five percent, I like them pushing the

(26:30):
ball down the field enough to win this game. It's
a hand. It's a hand. But everything you also heard
because you bring up a couple of people that are
related to the program right now. Correct Matier is not
only a handsome boy who can throw the ball over
the yard, who's got enough shake to be like considered
a dual threat quarterback, but he's a guys got guys,
got guys, got tough guy. Don't treat me like a quarterback.

(26:52):
Yeah I'm not going Yeah, let me put that. I'm
gonna put that on my back. I'm gonna squat that.
We're gonna get after it. Power clean. He's a dude.
He's got that like crea team vibe about him where
he's all about the SUPs. He's all about a fat
arm Friday, all about a good laugh, all about a
good laugh. He's like one of those dudes that's like,
as much as I hated him a few weeks ago,
kind of falling in love with him. Right now, So
give me Oklahoma.

Speaker 4 (27:13):
Hmm.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
And I also think too, like, you know, not a
stat but you know, Sark is just there's a little
bit of.

Speaker 1 (27:19):
Talk right now.

Speaker 4 (27:20):
There's a lot of talk right now.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
Sark's name getting tied a little bit, the James Franklin stat's,
like you know, they got to they in Texas. You
talk about desperation too, like Texas has to have this game, yep,
whereas Oklahoma it's a record five and oh they're undefeated.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
So the wounded animal. And we talked, you did the
Florida thing last week for a couple of weeks ago.
You guys did Florida versus. But I've done I remember
we were talking about last week.

Speaker 3 (27:43):
I said the reason I'm scared to not pick Florida
this eventually because yeah, yeah, this is going to be
the week where they turn it around. But I was
on him here for a couple of weeks in a row,
and I kind of I think they're a live dog,
a live gator this week against A and M my
personal page.

Speaker 5 (27:59):
By the way, just before we move out of this game,
big transitive property game. About middle of the season, you
start talking about transitive property. So let's just say, for example,
let's say Texas does go and win this game Saturday. Well,
in terms of the transitive property later down the road,
that means the team that Ohio State handled in Week
one just beat the team that handled Michigan. What does

(28:23):
it mean for rivalry week that's a rock favorite situation.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
Time out doesn't go to that scenario again.

Speaker 4 (28:30):
All right, transitive property.

Speaker 3 (28:31):
You said transitive, and I was trying to, like weirdly
doing the same.

Speaker 1 (28:36):
Thing, like I gotta figure out what transitive means by yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:39):
And then when he brought three games, I was like, Okay, Texas, Michigan.

Speaker 1 (28:45):
There's a corner of the Texas beats Oklahoma Texas. I'm
more saying this so I know that I'm right, and
you can say, okay, that's correct. If Texas beats Oklahoma
and Ohio State beat Texas and Oklahoma beat Michigan, what
does that mean for Ohio State?

Speaker 5 (29:00):
And what it means is Buckeyes by ninety That's what
it means. There is no other way here.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
Here's your problem. Oh's therapy you went to about having
a Michigan problem. I got a Michigan problem.

Speaker 4 (29:10):
We need to do it.

Speaker 1 (29:16):
I feel more coming about Michigan now than ever beat
in usc because you don't believe you're just saying it
because you said in the past.

Speaker 5 (29:22):
Look back in the early days of the Internet, one
of the first things that happened is porn.

Speaker 4 (29:27):
But another thing that happened.

Speaker 5 (29:28):
Was people figured out how to talk about the transitive
property on message boards and this took off. There were
people who knew ball, there were people who didn't know ball,
that didn't know ball. Crowd just started talking about the
transitive property. They thought they had football licked. Well, if
A beat B and B beat C, how could C
possibly beat A? And then C would beat A and

(29:49):
they would be like, this makes no sense. How could
this have happened? What happens because the ball is shaped
weird and you score in threes and sevens and last
week doesn't matter this week.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
So I always love to have fun and.

Speaker 5 (29:59):
Just throw the transit proper for in people's faces, and
then when it pans out, you just talk about it
like as science.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
That's a beautiful that's a beautiful way to backtrack on
everything you just said.

Speaker 4 (30:07):
That's correct.

Speaker 3 (30:07):
The transitive property states that if a first item relates
to a second item and the second item relates to
the third item in the same way than the first
item also relates to the third item in that same way.

Speaker 4 (30:17):
That's what I said.

Speaker 3 (30:17):
Yeah, that's exactly what I mean.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
Think the definition is more confusing the way you framed
it to me.

Speaker 3 (30:22):
But there's there's nothing too like when somebody throws a
definition and then you check it in that definition is
the exact same as the internet. To me, it's like, oh, buddy,
you operate at a different level.

Speaker 1 (30:31):
Yeah, it's Francis Ellis on the pod.

Speaker 3 (30:33):
Yeah, like I could put definitions together just with a
you know, I can try to throw words at something
and oh that kind of makes sense. But when it's
spot on, a lot of respect for you jobs.

Speaker 4 (30:42):
I'm a texting sark, So.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
We you're saying, Sark knows now if Texas beat Oklahoma yep,
Ohio State by ninety in November.

Speaker 3 (30:52):
Minimum speaking of a state speaking, Ohio State goes to
Illinois this week, number one team in the country against
a seventeen team, number one team in the country. Ohio
State is favored by fourteen and a half. The over
under on this.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
Game is forty nine and a half. Fellas, how we
feeling because I'm gonna be I'm gonna be honest.

Speaker 3 (31:12):
I like Ohio State three scores.

Speaker 1 (31:15):
I like Ohio State three scores against Illinois two.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
Scores in a point which would make go for two,
go for two on one of those.

Speaker 4 (31:27):
I like.

Speaker 1 (31:29):
I hope and pray Ohio State wins this game. I
need them to be undefeated for that lost by ninety
that you were referring to. But Illinois fourteen and a half.
For me, it's just too many points.

Speaker 3 (31:40):
It's a lot of points.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
At Illinois local Altenheimer.

Speaker 4 (31:44):
Oltenheimer, He's I have.

Speaker 3 (31:45):
One of the more underrated quarterbacks in college football. I agree.

Speaker 1 (31:48):
They have a great operation of a due They do
a great job of sustaining drives. Their defense is good,
not great. And you look at Ohio State. If Texas
is who we think Texas is, then they don't really
have a doesn't have a huge win or a big like, hey,
we beat those guys this year. They're in a bit
of a dog fight in the first half of their
game against Ohio. They end up covering that game. Well,

(32:09):
actually they tied that spread twenty eight points, but it
was like nine to nine or nine to whatever. I
just think Illinois Brett Beelima. They get embarrassed by Indiana
just because they came and have righted the ship a
little bit doesn't mean that tastes ant out of their mouth.
Ohio State wins this game, but Illinois covers.

Speaker 3 (32:26):
Yeah, I don't. I don't mind that thought. To me,
it's like, I'm kind of uh. I got hit in
the mouth.

Speaker 1 (32:33):
Last week with a pick like this, and it was
Mississippi State A and M.

Speaker 3 (32:37):
I feel like they're kind of begging.

Speaker 1 (32:38):
Yeah, you moved the line and still lost.

Speaker 3 (32:40):
Yeah, they're kind of begging you to take this line exactly.
I didn't move the line. The blind moved. Oh you too.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
Okay, so you saw them it was fourteen and a half,
and then by Saturday it was sixteen and a half.
You jumped on.

Speaker 3 (32:51):
I just jumped on because Bates. Bate's like, you know,
they could be just begging you to take it six
and a half. I've been packers.

Speaker 1 (32:59):
You watched film watch this yeah, yeah, yeah, business, and
so I'm learning from that and I just think, yeah,
that's the sole reason why I'm taking this game.

Speaker 3 (33:08):
I do think Illinois is underrated. I think they are
a good football team. I think Ohio State's a different beast. Defensively,
they are a different beast. You can tell people can
have conversations about the offense. All they want. They do
what they have to do to win games. Matt Patricia
is incredible out there. That defense flies around. I like
Ohio State here because again, when I was watching the

(33:28):
USC Illinois game, Illinois is gonna need turnovers to go
their way. They're gonna need a couple of trick plays
in there. I just think Ohio State's gonna be ready
to go. They're gonna go into Illinois. I think they
cover this.

Speaker 1 (33:37):
I think Illinois plays very similarly to Washington in a
lot of ways. They're not as mobile at quarterback, but
they still utilize that RPO. He's reading the linebacker while
they're running a quick slant and a lot of those
plays that Washington had where they pushed the ball down
the field. On that Ohio State defense, they are successful
between the twenty five and the twenty five, very successful
about getting the ball down the field. And when they

(33:57):
got in the red zone, you know they're in the
red three separate times. They only come away with six
different points. I like the culture of Brett Beelama, a
little bit more than I do in Washington, and they
play a similar game on offense that seemed to be
relatively successful in the chunk middle of the field versus
Ohio State. And that's why I think. I mean, you
look at Ohio State's run game. They're like a three

(34:19):
back system. They got a running back. His name is
bo Jackson. He's got half as many yards as Justin Hayes.
If you're just says, if you're wondering.

Speaker 3 (34:25):
But they just don't.

Speaker 1 (34:27):
They not like a They don't have a dynamic pass
game and run game. They have one or the other
based on the game that they're playing. And I like Illinois.
They seem a little more of a complete team. They're
not as good, but they're good at both as opposed
to being a good one of the other.

Speaker 5 (34:43):
There was a random score in my head. They kept
floating around because the numbers fourteen and a half right,
the score twenty to six kept floating around. It would
be so brutal because again Ohio State will have gone
in there and do what they do. They will have
done a version of what they did to Washington, where
Illinois has no shot offensively all day, struggling to cross
the fifty whatever, but Ohio State has so few possessions

(35:06):
right now. Offensively, they just grind the game to a halt,
which is beautiful. It's not a knock on them, it's
a knock on laying the points with them because you're
worried can they pull away. The one thing I do
think is I think they know, and I think they
have structured the entire first half of their season to
bring Julian say In along at a proper pace because
they know they're not going to get challenged after Texas,

(35:26):
so they can kind of treat this as fall camp,
although don't let Ryan Day hear that. I think they'll
add layer and layer and layer week by week. And
I think they realize we're gonna have to throw the
ball to win a national title. We're gonna have to
utilize this wide receiver corps more than we have if
we're going to actually win the Big Ten, if we're
gonna beat Oregon one day, if we're going to go
into Michigan to beat Michigan, if we're going to win
the playoffs. So one of these games, and maybe it's

(35:47):
this one, I think just you mentioned that hasn't been there.
The run game in pass game at the same time.
One of these games, I think that's going to kind
of click, and I'm going to semi bank that it's
going to be this week. So I'll actually take Ohio
State and the points. But there's a solid twenty to
six game in there somewhere where I'm just you can't
be serious. You held them to six and we still
didn't cover. I'm gonna roll the dice. I don't feel

(36:08):
confident on it, so I won't be betting anything on
this game, but I'll take Ohio State to win and cover.

Speaker 3 (36:12):
Okay, responsible?

Speaker 5 (36:14):
Ye nuts, Do I get some credit if I say
twenty to six?

Speaker 4 (36:20):
I mean it is on the record. It is.

Speaker 1 (36:23):
We give me something. We'll put a star next to
your name and the lost category. Yeah, called the game
exactly and lost. Congrat Right, you got three and two
a game. We'll put a star next to.

Speaker 3 (36:32):
The Two'll just give them an extra give him an extra? What?
Just an extra?

Speaker 1 (36:36):
W three? Two and one?

Speaker 2 (36:38):
Hey?

Speaker 1 (36:38):
What's that one? I called the exact score game.

Speaker 4 (36:40):
They didn't follow it. He bet against himself, but he
didn't call the score.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
He did call the score. It's gonna be an interesting game.
And also they hate the pass game. I mean they
got two nasty wide receivers too, first round pick wide receivers.
They didn't really do a whole They don't eventually, My god,
they're they're bulling the doors off these guys, and I kind.

Speaker 3 (36:57):
Of like to Washington moving the ball because they weren't.
It's a sess well clearly in the red zone. But
you have some tape to learn from, you know what
I mean. Patricia can get a little you can get
a little salt.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
Then their apartment turned or a kick return that Ohio
State fumbled the ball, Yeah, put them in a short
field Washington, and shortfield still came with only three in
that situation.

Speaker 3 (37:16):
Right, Treating the boys like they lost going out there
to Washington.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
Yeah, the things I'm we're saying together are making you
feel good about the pick that I'm going at. But
it also makes me feel good about my pick.

Speaker 3 (37:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (37:25):
You know what makes them feel good at Ohio State?
What is knowing they hired Matt Patricia calls their DC
left them to go get forty plus hung on him
at UCLA. I think that's what makes them feel good.
Can you imagine how high those feed are kicked up?
In that building watching Penn State UCLA, knowing Jim Knowles
jetted on them, and they're like, we'll be fine.

Speaker 1 (37:45):
Talk about talk about a butterfly effect. Ohio State loses
their DC to Penn State and because of that transition
getting hung forty on them. Now there's fear in Lincoln,
Nebraska about their head coach going to Penn State. Butterfly.
Look at that Butterfly fact. I'm just saying that crazy
Ashton coacher. It's a great movie. You should watch Butterfly
fat it is. It's a phenomenal movie. Journal he reads it,

(38:06):
he goes, and then he's at a different time.

Speaker 5 (38:08):
You believe believe Amy Smart is in that movie. Preston
from Remember the Titans is in that movie football movie.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
You love football movies. Coach Rule ain't going anywhere, speak
speaking of any Coach Rule ain't going anywhere. I hope
he doesn't. I love I love Coach. I've been on
House Rules briefly. Yeah, that's that's what I've been on it.

Speaker 4 (38:28):
Right, I'm a technically you were in the credits.

Speaker 1 (38:29):
You were just like Ryan Day is technically a friend
of the show for Bust with the Boys. He's been
on Yeah, I'm just this is a college football show.
We talk about things going on in college football. Yeah,
I'm saying coach anywhere, And I'm saying there's rumors. I
know there's rumors, but this is like a father figure
to me. He ain't going he wouldn't do it. No,
he wouldn't do it. Loves it in link.

Speaker 5 (38:50):
You're just saying that it is your job as a
Big Jay journalist to just pretend you got to present
the scenario.

Speaker 4 (38:55):
You got to put it out there. It's not you're
saying not personal.

Speaker 3 (38:59):
Yeah, I'm saying the way it happens.

Speaker 5 (39:01):
And I'm saying it would be bad for college football
if it happened. I can't have Matt Rule leave Nebraska.
That would be bad for college football. He's not a
bad for college football guy. He's a good for college
football guy. Yeah, lest we forget, the job's not open
at Penn State right now.

Speaker 1 (39:17):
Juisio, you were framing a couple of questions to me,
if they lose to Oregon, do you think about getting
James Franklin out there? And my thought was like, hey,
if you're happy with your ceiling being ten and two,
well now the ceilings No, longer looking like that. Ten
and two looked more like a lost to Oha State,
not UCI. Now that it's UCL and now you got
you gotta playoff. They play Indiana as well, right.

Speaker 5 (39:35):
In Michigan State, Nebraska, Ohio State at Iowa at night
as all of a sudden, just a game one can
look over.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
Yeah, yeah, Aler getting pissed off. You guys still in
the hunt for the playoffs? Well you think anytime you
have a response like that as quarterbacks, Oh, you guys
are not happy.

Speaker 5 (39:54):
Actually didn't even hear that sound bite. Did he really
say that?

Speaker 1 (39:56):
Yeah, He's sitting there and they're like, are you guys
still in the hunt for the playoff? He's like, what
do you think? Looks right at them? I'm asking you
the question. I'm asking you the question. Wow.

Number eight, Yeah, Alabama might be going to Penn State

Total points that game is fifty two and a half.
I was one of the first people to sit there
for week one and be like Alabama's dead. Yep, you
hear the rumor, the Reddit rumors about two am guys
are getting their uber eats along with the side of

(41:08):
ass and they're going up to their hotel room and
doing whatever. They're being very loose about everything. Sat on
that bus, looked at g and the eyes that you
guys might be done, and a lot of people in
college football not only thought the same thing, but also
we're kind of happy about it. Like college the college
football world celebrated Yeah, saying yeah, it is Alabama being dead.

Speaker 5 (41:26):
They danced on the grave even though there wasn't a
body in that, right, yeah right.

Speaker 1 (41:29):
Just a Doug hole. Unfortunate thing for them is no
one's in it. And I think Alabama this is my
favorite pick of the of the entire week. I think Missouri.
They obviously have a great run game. They're running backs
leading the league, leading all of college football, and rushing
it's like seven hundred and thirty six yards some of
the only one hundred or something more than Justice Hayes.
And but you look at who they've played. They haven't

(41:50):
really played anybody, No disrespect to JP. They played South Carolina.
They I mean, Alabama goes and they beat Georgia like
they always do, but they stopped. They break Georgia's home
game winning streak of like what twenty three games pre covid,
pre covid, pre pre boosters. Yes, the last time they yeah,

(42:12):
so then they had then they have the aago Pavia.
They were one to zero against quarterbacks. To talk trash
again about that as a kid, man, he's just a kid.
He's just a kid. But they made him look like
a kid during that game a little bit. I had
a bunch of turnovers I like the way Alabama's trending.
Killing de Boor comes on the show this week. Friend
of the show, friend of the show, two time friends
of the show, Yeah, two time friend of the show.

Speaker 3 (42:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (42:34):
I feel great about Alabama. The thing that does make
me nervous. We were talking about before the show Missouri
under construction. I was like, they don't care about it,
and I was like, carry goes. I walked into Vanderbilt
last year and they're under construction. Look what happened there.
So that does make me a little bit nervous. But
I'm taking I'm taking Alabama to cover Alabama covering.

Speaker 4 (42:52):
Dobor is not a good construction coach.

Speaker 1 (42:54):
Not a good but he also wasn't a good coach
against quarterbacks talk trash. Yeah, and so he wrote that ship.

Speaker 5 (42:58):
You gotta He's got to fix a lot of it trends.
He fixed the penalized trend. They don't get penalized anymore.
You're you're fixing now. You've got to fix road games.
You got to fix the road game, because is the
Georgia game a fix?

Speaker 4 (43:10):
That's one game.

Speaker 1 (43:10):
I'm saying, they take you five. There were one and
five going into that game.

Speaker 4 (43:14):
Takes two or three. It takes it takes it? Does
it take three?

Speaker 1 (43:16):
Takes three to a streak.

Speaker 4 (43:18):
It's three a trend and two's a streak.

Speaker 1 (43:20):
I think it might be flipped.

Speaker 4 (43:23):
You're the way. They're not there yet. I want whatever
three is?

Speaker 1 (43:26):
Oh streater with me?

Speaker 4 (43:27):
I think possibly, I don't know. Maybe where was the
he's saying he might be by ninety.

Speaker 3 (43:35):
He might be saying until they get on that three game,
whatever it is, streak trend, He's gonna make Bam approve
it to him.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
The only way to get three is to get three.
You've gotten two, this is the next one in the list. No,
they've gotten one since that right in that ship.

Speaker 4 (43:49):
Can I just say this though Georgia.

Speaker 1 (43:52):
Vanderbilt, Vandy was at home. They beat Vandy, they lost
to Bagy last year.

Speaker 3 (43:58):
Yeah, mobile quarterbacks continue.

Speaker 1 (44:00):
All right? So the third one would be the game
we're talking about right now in Missouri. Yeah, I think
they're going to get the third.

Speaker 4 (44:08):
Matt Rule's not leaving Nebraska. That's not happening. You don't
think so, No, I don't think so.

Speaker 1 (44:13):
Alma Mater or real complex, but Alma Mater, Alma Mater.
The boys are watching too much cars watches.

Speaker 5 (44:22):
No way Almaheimer moves the ball in Ohio State. There's
no there's no way what happens.

Speaker 1 (44:26):
You don't think Alzheimer's gonna get it done. I think
Alzheimer presses the red button. There's a couple of nukes
on them.

Speaker 3 (44:33):
Give me Missoi here.

Speaker 4 (44:38):
I'm just waiting for a total. I was just waiting for.

Speaker 1 (44:42):
Scoring that game.

Speaker 3 (44:43):
No, no, no scoring that game. I think Alabama escapes
a close one against Missoo. I personally don't like this
spot for Alabama. You have two very emotional wins night
games Georgia Vandy. Now you're going in. You gotta be
ready to go at eleven AM in Columbia Missouri, Willie's
and Harpo's will be rocking. Two great college college bars.

Speaker 4 (45:10):
Fuldn't lie.

Speaker 1 (45:11):
Tour is gonna be there. Place is gonna be rocking
in Missouri. I can promise you if I will mount
Josh Payton Mouth open video too on just a bomb touchdown. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (45:20):
Alabama and again Missooi. You can argue about it if
they played a team or not. They are number one
in the country in rush yards per game, number one,
rush defense, number one, and third down conversions as an offense, Uh,
converting on sixty two percent a mod hardy, Like you
want to talk about a running back?

Speaker 1 (45:37):
Thanks more than just one to take him down? Bro?

Speaker 4 (45:39):
You guys Jamal Roberts too, he's pretty good.

Speaker 3 (45:41):
Yeah, he's averaging over seven as well. Both their running
backs very good. But this a mod hardy. Let me
tell you about a mode. Hardy five to ten, two
hundred and ten pounds and he's all two hundred ten.
I bet he's two fifteen weighing in on Monday mornings
when they're checking weight there. Like the dude is sturdy
when he's coming to the hole, like guys are not.
Only guys will have thick form tackles on this young

(46:02):
man and his body like doesn't move. He just keeps
going like tackle after tackle. He is hard to bring
down and miszoo live like Uh, the way that they
operate schematically on offense, they live in twelve personnel. They'll
change the gaps on you, whether it's with one tight end,
whether it's with both tight ends. I think you'll get
a lot of one on one opportunities for Hardy in

(46:23):
the whole. And I like my odds with Hardy they
move the ball very well. Prabula is a good quarterback.
He can win with his legs. He's got a pretty
ball downfield. He operates very well and confidently. Defense, they
can get after the passer a little bit. They are
number ten in the country on past defense. I like
Missou here. I like Missoo. I think it takes a
mom of far Alabama to kind of like wake the

(46:43):
fuck up because it's eleven AM and it's been They've
had a couple of emotional wins. So that's why I
like Bama here, or that's why I like Missoo here
with the points.

Speaker 5 (46:50):
So the first thing we have to answer is is
all of Missouri's stat profile legit, which is what you
have to ask about any team that really hasn't faced
high level competition because they could be great, or they
could be a total you know, paper tiger pun intended whatever.
So that's the first thing we have to answer, because
you're right, like all of their number two total, their

(47:10):
number one run, their number ten pass. That's defensively for Missouri.
So what is Bama getting defensively? Like, what are they
facing defensively? Is Missouri really the number two total defense
in the Country. Are they really the number one run defense?
Are they even a fraction of that? So that the
scaling issue against a quality team, you can't know until

(47:31):
you know. But the thing that I think about and
what gives me the most concern for Alabama is for
all the fear that people had about Bama being able
to face Georgia, they actually should have about Missouri because
this is a bigger challenge for Obama's offensive line than
Georgia was. Georgia can't pressure the quarterback, Missouri can. Missouri's
got players like Damon Wilson should be playing for Georgia,

(47:54):
but he transferred to Missouri. Zion Young is a much
better guy than what they faced against Georgia. It's weird
to say that because one's Missouri and the other's Georgia.
So I see a similar edge here that Bama had
against Georgia. Because Alabama could have and did at times
victimize Georgia's DB's, they should be able to do that
against Missouri. The difference is Ti had time against Georgia.

Speaker 4 (48:18):
I don't know, keeps it eye. Maybe he has time
against Missouri.

Speaker 5 (48:22):
But that's the great unknowable until we watch the game
start to unfold. The game script I think itself is
very important because you mentioned a Maad Hardy, Jamal Roberts, Boprabulah.
All of those guys can run the ball if you
get up kind of like FSU got up on you
in week one and force Bama into obvious passing come
from behind type mode. I really worry about the pressure

(48:44):
they can get on Ty Simpson if you flip it, though,
and you've got a situation where Bama's controlling and you
can't use that ground game. As much as you want
to love Bama, I am going to buy the slightest
of margins bank on. Missouri have having a little bit
of scaling issue here against a much better team, but
I'm terrified of the spot. That's why we're going up there.

(49:05):
Because you said you're ultra confident in it. I got
no confidence at all on either side of this game.
I'm very slight lean Alabama minus the points. Nothing would
surprise me. Last time I went to Missouri there was
a walk off field goal and they stormed it against
Kansas State. So that's two times for a field Storming
would be either a streak or a trend for me
at Missouri I'll tell you what aggravates me, though, is

(49:27):
they're shutting down the weight room Friday for Tebow to
work out tebias, the whole thing.

Speaker 3 (49:32):
They're shutting it down, like you're saying, Josh Pate, future
Commission of College Football, this is can't share in the
same weight room as Tim Tebow.

Speaker 4 (49:39):
As we're recording. I mean, Eli Drinquitz made it official.

Speaker 1 (49:42):
Just Tim and Jesus, nobody else is a lie in there,
including me. That's got to be a little bit ridiculous, right.

Speaker 5 (49:47):
It just I'm not going to say I'm angry about it.
I'll say I'm a little hurt by it. Yeah, Like,
sorry for caring about my fitness too. Hey, Tim's not
the only guy who wants to look out for himself.

Speaker 3 (49:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (49:59):
So because of that, I think I think Alabama probably
probably deals in l this weekend in Colombia, and afterwards,
Eli Riequitz has to think would it have been different
had I been more hospitable with my weight room.

Speaker 1 (50:11):
It's just sad. It's sad.

Speaker 3 (50:13):
I'll get this clip, We'll see what we can do
with it.

Speaker 1 (50:15):
Yeah, members a seal of stats you guys go with.
I was at a game earlier this year when the
defense had a bunch of those similar stats and the
team they were playing against rusher two in eighty six yards.
So until you've like played somebody, it's like all these
numbers are going to be skewed.

Speaker 4 (50:30):
What game was that?

Speaker 1 (50:31):
I don't want to say personal.

Speaker 4 (50:33):
Oh oh, but I'll give you.

Speaker 1 (50:34):
I'll give you a hit. Head coach might go to
Penn State. There's a hit.

Speaker 3 (50:39):
Just nasty nasty shoes, Not nasty, I'm being nasty. What
do you mean nasty? Pat on the head, docy bad.

bustin't look good, feel good, play good. Let's get to
the True Classic Game of the week. Let's say next game.
We got True Classic Game of the Week.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
True Classic Game of the Week. Every Saturday's got games,
but only one fits just right. This is the true
classic game of the week. We got Indiana at number seven,
at number three organ Kurt Signetti versus Dan Lanning, Oregon
favored minus seven and a half. Total points in the
game is fifty five and a half. Week seven.

Speaker 5 (51:33):
Yeah, we're halfway through the season, Week seven, and yet
again we're asking about Indiana facing quality competition, first elite
team they've played all year.

Speaker 4 (51:41):
No disrespect to Illinois.

Speaker 5 (51:45):
The last memory I have really of Indiana is probably
the same one that both of you think of, and
that is we take off in Lincoln. Nice competitive game
going on Illinois. Indiana we land body bagging, Yeah, splattering,
whatever adjective you want to use. They're zipping that thing
up over Illinois.

Speaker 3 (52:03):
And Signatty, by the way, talk shit before that game.

Speaker 4 (52:05):
Sure did. And now what did he call? He called landing.
He gave him some kind of act like.

Speaker 3 (52:11):
A young phenom, really respects him. He deadpanned it, he
didn't laugh, So you know it's a setup. He's basically
he's narrating their hype video in press conferences. Yeah, but
Indiana's hype videos never really circulate, so they just watch
it internally.

Speaker 4 (52:28):
I've never seen an Indiana hype video.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
Neither.

Speaker 4 (52:30):
This will be in the Indiana hype video this week,
but I've never seen one. So they went to Iowa.
My point with the Illinois game is that's not the
one to think about.

Speaker 5 (52:38):
That was at home. They have gone on the road.
They went to Iowa. It was a twenty to fifteen game.
It was a really close game.

Speaker 3 (52:44):
Didn't cover.

Speaker 4 (52:45):
And now that was one of the six and a half's.

Speaker 5 (52:47):
Yeah, it was one of you of your boys there,
mister six and a half. This one is not six
and a half. This one is seven and a half
yees down down from nine and a half at the
beginning of the week. So a lot of money, a
lot of people really love in Indiana here. I think
I maybe one of them. I think Indiana is going
to really go up there and challenge them.

Speaker 1 (53:09):
You know, Dan Lanning watches the show.

Speaker 3 (53:11):
I think in a way, Dan go ahead say something
about Dan Lanning. Well, this is a young phenom coach,
you know.

Speaker 1 (53:16):
Yeah, this is an say why you're doubting him.

Speaker 4 (53:21):
I can't confirm it. I'm saying I've heard some stuff
about Dan.

Speaker 5 (53:25):
Oh No, what I'm saying is, do you think Kurt
Signetti closes Fridges with his hip.

Speaker 1 (53:33):
I've heard Dan Lanning does unfortunately like.

Speaker 3 (53:38):
I don't.

Speaker 4 (53:39):
Isn't it low key?

Speaker 5 (53:40):
The biggest test of Dan Lanning's career here? Isn't this
when we find out about Dan Lanning? Isn't this when
we find out about that entire organization up there? Because
people are talking, People are talking about how fraudulent the
Penn State win is. People are saying, hey, big deal,
the team that you see La handled took you to overtime.
I'm why couldn't Indiana handle you? Why couldn't Indiana do

(54:04):
some business in your backyard? I am not those people.
I'm listening to those people like I'm the message.

Speaker 3 (54:10):
You're kind of buying what those people are saying because
you're taking Indiana.

Speaker 5 (54:13):
The people are influencing me, and we're picking games against
the spread. We're not picking straight up here. So you
can go win by field goal, you can go win
by a touchdown. I just don't know if you're going
to win by seven and a half or more.

Speaker 1 (54:23):
If Oregon only wins this game by a field goal,
is it really a win.

Speaker 4 (54:28):
That's a great question for the playoff committee.

Speaker 1 (54:30):
Yeah, because it's like all these rumors strong, it's in
and his hips and how he opens gatorade bottles and
hold Signetti is using a Will Compton praise, patting him
on the head a little bit in a press conference. Listen,
you only win that game by three God forbid good
or overtime?

Speaker 3 (54:48):
Yeah, I got so, I don't know again. So I
got texts right after. So I had a tweet. I
saw Signetti's press conference, all right.

Speaker 1 (54:57):
I saw him talking about landing young phenom.

Speaker 3 (55:01):
The in the college world love him, high respect for him,
and I tweet Signetti has lost his fastball, Like this
isn't what has made Signetti great since his time showing
up in Indiana. This is a guy that talks shit,
and not only talks shit, he backs it up outside
of the Notre Dame game, got the whole goo, got
all this stuff out there, but he kind of I
felt like he's lost a massive step. So I get

(55:23):
a random text from an Indiana area code, and all
it says is his wife calls me Bignetti. Oh no,
And I said, I said, excuse me, who is this?
And then another one rattles off, dude's got a PhD
in hype and an elementary understanding. In the second half.
I said, is this coach Signetti? And he said, a

(55:44):
lot of respect for Dan Lanning, young phenom in this game.
I love his highlights. You know who else loves his highlights?
Incoming Ohio State recruits. I said, buddy, you got to
stop talking about my boy like boy like this. And
then another one comes through. No, he recruits players like
he's collecting rare sneakers all flash. I said, what does
that even mean? And then he goes all he does

(56:05):
is recruit five stars and I says, there a punchline
of this. He said, fuck Dan Lanning, and then three
cigarette emojis came after that and I never heard from
it again. I don't know if that signetty Indiana area code,
I'll be able to post a screenshot for everybody.

Speaker 1 (56:22):
Are the dust dead?

Speaker 4 (56:23):
That's not good for college football, but that's terrible for Oregon.

Speaker 1 (56:27):
I think Oregon beats their ass again. This is another
team traveling out to the West coast. I'm saying, Oregon's
gonna whoop this Indiana ass this weekend. Seven and a half.

Speaker 3 (56:39):
I love this pic. I don't think that's what you
scare everybody that I love this pic, But it's an.

Speaker 1 (56:45):
Asshopen right here, it's Sco ducks this have you ever
seen We can't have the number one What we can't
do on the show.

Speaker 3 (56:53):
We can't let the fan base. We can't let Dan
Lanning see anything that we just talked about.

Speaker 1 (56:57):
But I love that if you're if you're the organ
dust our team, you're watching every one of our shows
and making sure Dan Lanning cannot see what will come.

Speaker 4 (57:05):
You just read to the world, Dan Landing does not
hear outside noise. No, that's confirmed. He I don't even
know that he has internet.

Speaker 1 (57:12):
Actually think the whole state of organ has internet. I
don't think they have it up there.

Speaker 4 (57:15):
It seems like a little bit of a shot.

Speaker 1 (57:17):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (57:19):
The grass is green, very green, very green.

Speaker 1 (57:22):
The amount of different kinds of trees they have up
thereas what I'm talking about. We sat there and basically
hallucinated under a tree for three hours. We didn't take
anything out of the tree, just in the air. Animal
House was filmed there. One of the best movies of
all time. You've seen it? Tell me about it? Great movie, Yeah,
talk me through the plot. A lot of great trees

(57:43):
in the movie. Yep, Oregon. Tell me about Blueto dude.

Speaker 4 (57:48):
Yeah, the man I wasn't looking.

Speaker 1 (57:55):
Look see you get it, man, you get as much
things changed. They also stayed the same week seven. Last
year Indiana was undefeated. They wouldn't play Ohio State. They
lost their game by fifteen. I don't say it changed
anything here. Oregon's gonna mop the floor of Indiana. No disrespect.
Great program, Kurt Signetti, awesome guy. I'm assuming future friend
of the show would love to go check out Indiana

(58:17):
some time.

Speaker 3 (58:17):
Yeah, am I right? Yeah? They pushed it down our throat,
so I have nothing. I gotta have nothing about respect.
I'm just with when I'm looking at this game, I
just see an ass beating, but a lot of respect
for signetting the Indiana Hoosiers.

Speaker 1 (58:31):
Yeah. Give me the points in that game, Oregon.

Speaker 4 (58:34):
Great, I'm taking them. I'm actually taking the points at all.

Speaker 1 (58:39):
Can you hear me with one of these at all?
Do you have a paper popper here for Indiana?

Speaker 4 (58:44):
I really don't.

Speaker 5 (58:46):
All I'm saying is I think Indiana has the QB
to keep them in the game to trade points. Like
when we were talking about Ohio State in Illinois, that's
one where if Ohio State's got three tuddies on the board.
I don't really trust Illinoe to be able to trade
with him. All due respect to Alzheimer, all due respect
to him.

Speaker 1 (59:04):
Underrated dog.

Speaker 4 (59:05):
Yeah, he's going to be a sling.

Speaker 3 (59:07):
Like again, USC, you're probably not putting them in the
powerhouse tier of college football. But he was trading with
the USC.

Speaker 4 (59:14):
That's wonderful. He needed to against Ohio State.

Speaker 1 (59:17):
Twenty for twenty six three twenty five.

Speaker 3 (59:19):
You just have that stat line, member, because I thought
it was I thought it was it was great.

Speaker 1 (59:24):
It's great, great display quarterbacking out there on the football
field in Illinois.

Speaker 5 (59:29):
What would be great as if I wouldn't look at
the stat line and that's not even close.

Speaker 4 (59:32):
You rattled it up that boom all Theheimer.

Speaker 1 (59:37):
Uh yeah.

Speaker 5 (59:37):
I just think they can trade points. So I think
it's gonna be a one possession type game.

Speaker 4 (59:41):
That's it. I think I got Oregon winning in their stadium. Yeah,
in their stadium fifty.

Speaker 3 (59:47):
That's why I think, like I feel, we talk about
a lot of these games and we talk like it's
being played on a neutral site and it's not. It's like, dude,
traveling out there. College game day is going to be
out there yet.

Speaker 5 (59:55):
There is sure is ready to go, man, just like
it was the last time that we were out there
at again. But that was which was a one possession game,
that was Ohio State. Yeah is this was just did
you text that back to the unknow number?

Speaker 1 (01:00:09):
There?

Speaker 3 (01:00:10):
I need to say, buddy, you're just Indian, You're just Indiana. Yeah,
lose my number. Three cigarette emotions, three cigarette emojis. Oh
my goodness, it's like I got to delete this a set.

Speaker 4 (01:00:22):
It's too much free time.

Speaker 3 (01:00:24):
We can't have Oregon fans.

Speaker 1 (01:00:25):
You know, Dan Lenny. He might not have Internet, but
he has a way to hack your phone. He'll see
it if you don't delete it.

Speaker 3 (01:00:32):
No, he knows.

Speaker 1 (01:00:32):
I tell him all time. Brother, do not look at
what's going on on the internet. Gotcha?

Speaker 4 (01:00:36):
Is there a world?

Speaker 1 (01:00:40):
Gotch?

Speaker 5 (01:00:40):
Is there a world where Landing goes to states in
the Big Ten, goes to a Verizon store, purchases a phone,
activates it in the respective area codes of the other
Big Ten teams, and on that Burner trashes himself to
you before Oregon games. And it's such a psychopath that
he still feeds off of you reading that on air.

Speaker 1 (01:01:00):
The answer is yes, and that's what makes me love
the organ Ducks even.

Speaker 4 (01:01:04):
That's that's the best I could come to switch in
my pat. That's the closest I came to switch my pa.

Speaker 1 (01:01:09):
All right, let's get into the dogs of the week.
Dogs of the week. Some underdogs this week that were
liking that we feel like are live dogs. I alluded
to mine earlier.

Speaker 3 (01:01:19):
It's Florida, and that's.

Speaker 1 (01:01:22):
Why dudek I missed them by a week.

Speaker 3 (01:01:26):
Will's Will's against the spread trends with Florida. I'm over.

Speaker 1 (01:01:31):
I took them what two three weeks in a row.

Speaker 3 (01:01:33):
They're thinking like this wounded hand won't tell you that's
a good football team. And then it's like, all right,
I think they're actually dead. Poked them with a stick.
They waited, they dead pulled me and they popped up
out of nowhere. And then they handled it possing me.
They handled U handle Texas. After that bye week, I
think they have some new life. I think A and
M could be gett a little too big for their breeches.

(01:01:54):
I like this spot for Florida, like, let's just see
some more Florida magic running the football lagway, dicing them
up the defense, being alive, like I like Florida plus
seven and a half this week at.

Speaker 1 (01:02:05):
Texas A and M Why not BILLI Napier are gonna
be the floor head coach next year?

Speaker 5 (01:02:09):
Well, I keep telling I keep being told it's inevitable
he gets fired, except that he's not fired, which allows
him to win a game every week. So he won
last week. I think I agree with you. They're going
to keep it close. This week we'll see coin flip game.
But Gator magic is real for all of what should
be October for South Carolina. It feels like I got
to create a term for Billy Napier in October because

(01:02:30):
maybe he's in route to saving his job. Twice in
consecutive October. That's a streak. That's yep, that's trend. One
of the two Billy Tober or whatever we're gonna call it.

Speaker 1 (01:02:40):
I got bad news too. I heard that if Matt
Role doesn't go to Penn State, his second biggest pick
is Florida. So Billiy Napier needs to pick.

Speaker 4 (01:02:45):
But it's got to be open, just like Penn State job,
it's got to be open.

Speaker 5 (01:02:49):
And then it's irrelevant caause Matt's not leaving Nebraska because
that would be bad for college.

Speaker 1 (01:02:53):
Imagine Matt Rule going heel on all of college football
because if he leaves Nebraska he's a bad guy.

Speaker 4 (01:02:58):
Well, he's got his own show. Just go heal on
your show.

Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
He creates his own narrative. God, he really is leaving
at me? Oh my, I didn't even think about that.
He's he's got That's the whole podcast is about house rules.
I don't see an end in there. Oh what an
what an angle? A podcast?

Speaker 4 (01:03:23):
It's like, you know, yes, team specific, yeah, team specific.

Speaker 1 (01:03:26):
I'm the head coach. I'm gonna put like a Nebraska
and in there or some sort of corn.

Speaker 5 (01:03:29):
So what you're saying is, if he's wrong and A
and M does win Saturday, the Florida job theoretically could
come open, at which point you think a discussion would
start to happen about potentially maybe possibly some candidates that
would make certain people sitting at the table not to

(01:03:51):
mention any names, uncomfortable.

Speaker 1 (01:03:54):
I'm saying, if they lose to A and M and
billion nape Heer finally gets the acts and Nebraska does
what people assume happens in year three under the head coach,
it's a horrible that's a horrible concoction for Nebraska. You
almost want to lose if you're in Nebraska, like, go

(01:04:14):
wait in four, seven and five, and oh, I guess,
I guess it's a year for Matt rules.

Speaker 4 (01:04:19):
Well they can't this weekend because the model of Nebraska
this weekend.

Speaker 1 (01:04:21):
I love the Nebraska against Michigan. I got UCLA plus
nine and a half against Michigan State. It's a little
personal for me because I hate Michigan State and dude Nico.
Even Tennessee fans are kind of like, all right, good
for him, it's good. That's awesome. Do they win this game? No?

Speaker 3 (01:04:38):
Do they cover?

Speaker 1 (01:04:40):
Probably not? They probably you know they probably do. I
drink they're kol aid a little too much.

Speaker 4 (01:04:44):
You understand.

Speaker 5 (01:04:45):
They're like sixty college games on the board per week.
You don't have to settle for one that no, probably
won't hit.

Speaker 1 (01:04:52):
They look at every single game, and I like, do
my own little narrative in my head of each game.
I look at that, go all right, that's what I do,
and it gets in this show. I'm like, I think
U c l A plus twenty four hours. Twenty four
hours ago, I said that. I was like, that's fucking genius.
So yeah, man, let me get a let me get

(01:05:13):
UCLA generational talent. Nico interim head coach. Beautiful, Yeah yeah, beautiful.
No chance, room head coach. No chance.

Speaker 3 (01:05:24):
They're still celebrating that Penn State.

Speaker 1 (01:05:26):
No, no chance, no shot.

Speaker 4 (01:05:27):
Well this is what that's a blue collar program cla.

Speaker 5 (01:05:30):
Yeah, notoriously, roll up your sleeves, meat and potato onto
the next week.

Speaker 1 (01:05:35):
Process oriented is a reason why they're stadium is an
hour away from the campus.

Speaker 4 (01:05:38):
Yeah, distractions, distraction. Uh.

Speaker 5 (01:05:42):
Texas Text looked really good this year. Right, They're undefeated
so far, clearly the best team in the Big twelve.
Got a showdown next week at Arizona State. But there
is the small matter of them having a game this
week against Kansas. Kansas under Lance live Pole kind of
quietly did what Billy Napier did last year knows was diving,
and then they pulled it up around this time. I

(01:06:02):
think they're doing it again. They're a fourteen and a
half point dog at Texas Tech. I think this is
going to be a knife fight, and I'm taking Kansas
plus fourteen and a half to get the cover to
push Texas Tech for like the first time this year.
Because they've won every game by twenty four plus, and
so I think this is going to be a good
challenge for them. Then it's going to make some people
doubt Texas Tech as they go to play Kenny in

(01:06:25):
Tempe next week, which is low key exactly what Joey
mcguard needs. They don't need to win every game.

Speaker 4 (01:06:30):
By three touchdowns.

Speaker 5 (01:06:31):
So I'm doing him a favor by almost beating him
but not quite beating him this week Kansas plus fourteen
and a half.

Speaker 1 (01:06:37):
Texas Tech is also undefeated against the spread this year.

Speaker 4 (01:06:40):
They sure are.

Speaker 1 (01:06:40):
They've not only covered every single game, they've double covered.

Speaker 4 (01:06:44):
And FanDuel aware of that and even knowing that this
is the number they put on this game. I trust them.

Speaker 5 (01:06:51):
I trust them to set a fair number for me.
Now I'm going to take Kansas because I just think
they're a little underrated.

Speaker 3 (01:06:56):
Trust our partners, Yes, we trusty.

Speaker 4 (01:06:58):
Never let us wrong.

Speaker 3 (01:07:00):
Quick break from the episode to shout out our boosting
with the Boys profit Boost If you don't already know,
If you don't already know, the Boys have a profit
boost token available every college football Saturday. That's a profit
boost on any college football Saturday. Bet just open up
the FANDOL sportsbook gap this Saturday, and look out for
the boosting with the boys PBT. That's a profit boost token.

(01:07:23):
Back to the episode. How about the weekly parlay, weekly parlay?
Who is your dog? My dog of the week, Florida. Oh,
that's right, that we're back on the wounded animal back got.

Speaker 1 (01:07:34):
Out at the wrong time my weekly parlay. I also
took the wounded animal Iowa State after what only the
Nebraska cornish as you do. They couldn't they couldn't be Cincinnati.
I like Iowa State. You brought up that game. How
it wasn't if this the box score didn't.

Speaker 4 (01:07:49):
Say it was thirty one point again, dude, who was it?

Speaker 1 (01:07:53):
A that's Cincinnati running back put his face targeting? Yeah,
in that safety us not once but twice.

Speaker 4 (01:08:00):
I think the officials were so stunning. Second one was
more of a it was a runover, but that first.

Speaker 1 (01:08:05):
Most guys, yeah, most guys been at the ways that
guy bends at the chest now, But I like, I
always stay getting back on track against Colorado.

Speaker 3 (01:08:11):
Never been a fan. I've never been a fan Colorado hater,
Anti Colorado.

Speaker 1 (01:08:17):
Anti Colorado. I'm just like I just when all the
hype was happening, and then they were like, you know,
they retire the jersey of Shader Sanders when it's one
of the Colorado great lost the Alimo Bowl. It's like,
what we're doing here? What do we do? Were game
of box yards? Jersey Taylor sitting in his recliner, just
hate watching everything Colorado.

Speaker 4 (01:08:38):
Yeah, I'll tell you what I was. I was like eight.

Speaker 1 (01:08:42):
I was iffy about them, and then I saw them
in Lincoln, Nebraska, and I thought, this is the worst
coach football team.

Speaker 3 (01:08:47):
I've ever seen.

Speaker 4 (01:08:48):
That was a bad time to see him. Yeah, that
was a bad with the ship.

Speaker 1 (01:08:50):
A little bit obviously themselves in a Big twelve Championship
conversation towards the end of the year. But I always state.

Speaker 5 (01:08:57):
Rocca becked Matt Campbell for reasons related to players that
don't play at Colorado anymore. You are laying the points
with Iowa State, which I hope you're right about. We
need we need those, we need them all. Uh So
I'm taking Arizona. Brigham Young's undefeated right now, and they're
going to Tucson. Tucson, as it's spelled, I am going

(01:09:18):
to take Arizona. I think that they are going to
win the game outright. So fan duel is very generous.
Our partners often are. They're giving us one and a
half points. With Arizona, I will take them to win
out right, gladly take the point and a half. So
maybe they lose by a point and we're still right.
I think they're gonna win out right. I don't love
the spot for Brigham Young.

Speaker 3 (01:09:37):
I don't know about b YU.

Speaker 1 (01:09:42):
Have you seen American Primeval? Ever since that show, I've
been out on b YU. Yeah, I give them a
bad look. Breakdown, breakdown, just to follow up. I also
don't those ship, but I did watch that show, and
that is can't have it.

Speaker 3 (01:09:58):
Yeah, yeah, this is right show, it's right. Just trust
your uh from the start to trust what you're saying
about Arizona.

Speaker 1 (01:10:10):
State. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah. But again I'll
say you know some of them b y U. I
just don't follow whole lot of people Yu. Full out,
no shot coffin, no.

Speaker 3 (01:10:17):
Way, super soakers out there. Yeah, I'm going Georgia Monaster
in half at Auburn. This is gonna This is one
where it's like, yeah, wounded tiger at home.

Speaker 4 (01:10:27):
You're right, you're right, Night game in Jordan Hare.

Speaker 3 (01:10:31):
Yeah, but great. There's there's some stuff bubbling around college
football and I kind of just want to I'm ready
to just see some drama a little bit. I'm ready
to see I would love to see Georgia whoop this team.
Then you get some Hugh Freeze talk and Auburn. Oh boy,
So I think George George is gonna be ready to go.

Speaker 1 (01:10:53):
Hugh Freez, like Hugh Freeze leaving getting fired.

Speaker 4 (01:10:58):
People be talking.

Speaker 1 (01:11:00):
I didn't want to bring this up, but if Matt
Rule had a third choice, it was Auburn.

Speaker 4 (01:11:09):
Auburn Rules.

Speaker 1 (01:11:11):
Oh great podcast show. That's where it's not my cast
show title that breaks my heart.

Speaker 5 (01:11:19):
It sounds like there could be a lot of dominoes
about to fall. It sounds like in college football right now,
we're the night before the two thousand and eight crisis happened,
and all of America's laying their head down on their pillow,
completely oblivious to what's ahead, and everything's about to take
a nose dive into the ocean. And I feel like, maybe,

(01:11:40):
just maybe with what's been said around this table in
confidence today, in confidence just between us, that there could
be some craziness about to happen in the coaching world,
not one, not too but multiple.

Speaker 4 (01:11:50):
Jobs, a streak of jobs, if you will, opening up.

Speaker 5 (01:11:54):
They said it couldn't be done anymore because they said
nil was making money real and you can't afford to
pay buy now because you got to pay the players.
So all these coaches are going to stay around forever.
And all of a sudden, we're in week seven, like
these teams have half a season to go, multiple big
time names, multiple big time jobs potentially coming open.

Speaker 4 (01:12:14):
Could it happen?

Speaker 3 (01:12:15):
It could.

Speaker 4 (01:12:16):
It's a big storyline.

Speaker 1 (01:12:17):
Yeah, yeah, I agree. Want you got another zinger with
my boy? No, I love that rule. There's no singers.
I just hate being that for you. I have to
say all these things, but you know what, you have anything.
When we're talking about parlays, this boosting with the Boys
PBT winner from this past week, this person bet five

(01:12:39):
dollars in an eight lag parlay that was plus two
hundred and fifty eight fifty and he won twelve and
seven dollars. Four money line picks Alabama or Vanderbilt, Florida
over Texas, Ucla over Penn State, Virginia over Lowville. They
also took four different games with the totals under Virginia
at Louisville, Alabama and Vanderbilt and Alabama, Kent State, Oklahoma,

(01:13:02):
Boys State Notre Dame a legs two and fifty eight
thousand plus two and fifty eight thousand.

Speaker 3 (01:13:09):
Hey, that's amazing. Florida for Texas and u CLA over
Penn State on moneylmpicks. Oh, I mean you know if
you listen to you, Yeah, obviously Florida, it should have
been my parlay should have been your parlay.

Speaker 1 (01:13:20):
Who takes UCLA over Penn State?

Speaker 4 (01:13:22):
Psychopathy?

Speaker 3 (01:13:23):
Yeah, absolute sicko.

Speaker 1 (01:13:24):
Siico makes you feel really good about my dog?

Speaker 4 (01:13:26):
A wee pick guy knew Nico is a generational quarterbacks.

Speaker 1 (01:13:29):

Speaker 4 (01:13:45):
Yeah, separation happens in November. That's fine. I'm still having
fun in October.

Speaker 3 (01:13:50):
Yeah, yeah, October spoop Ober Gauntlet up a schedule for
our boy jp Ovey he had a dream.

Speaker 5 (01:13:55):

a dream, okay. And in this dream, despite the fact
that they play what four top ten teams and like
the number eleven team in the country in the month
of October and the first week of November, which is
our purposes or purpie which is the plural purpose, is

Twenty six and he picks up his iPhone and he
looks at it and he's got a text. It's not
