All role college football coming up tonight. Big games coming

Speaker 2 (01:32):
Wow, that is.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Going to be spicy, all right, poll question, play of
the day, stat of the day, all of that coming up.
Good morning, those watching on Peacock, our streaming partner, thank
you for downloading the app. I'm to go back to
Colorado getting by North Dakota State. We said it a
tough team to open up with. North Dakota State is
a really good team. If this game was at North
Dakota State, I think they would have won that game.

(01:56):
But give credit to Colorado. They did what they needed
to do when they needed to do it. But it
wasn't pretty. It's not going to be pretty this year.
But they do have two first round draft picks. Travis Hunter,
pick what you want to do. You want to be
a receiver, you want to be a defensive back. Maybe
you want to be both Shodoor Sanders is going to
be a first round draft pick as well. But defense

(02:17):
not very good, and they're gonna have some explosive plays.
They're gonna be in shootouts. It feels like every single weekend.
But they came through when they needed to. And here's
Dion after the win.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
You got to take what people give you. You can't
take what you want and it's not there. I mean,
what is it? What do you throw for four yards?
You think we upset?

Speaker 4 (02:44):
Right?

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Who upset? So you know they ever run a game, well,
the passing game will pretty darn good today. So let's
let's let's be appreciative and thankful that we got one
of the premier guys in college football spending it. We're
gonna run the ball. We're gonna do that. We're gonna
have a lot more ballats. Today was just that type
of day. You got to take what they give.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
You, okay, But then there was a play towards the
end of the game where Dion's sun shoulder put it
up for grabs and Dion apparently didn't call the play.

Speaker 3 (03:14):
At the end of the game, we just want to
run the ball, let's get out of here, and he
took a shot, you know, to Legonte because he wanted
le Johnsay to have a big play because you got
the other two guys, the dogs, having a big play
and they and he know he's going to have one
on one matchup. He's just to put it out there
far enough. But that's his character. I'm like, come on, dog,
not right now. You know, it's not time to be

(03:34):
the good guy. Right now, it's time let's put this
game away. But that's that's what that was.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
Come on, dog, dog, Come on dog.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
That explains a lot because I'm thinking, the last thing
you're gonna do is throw the ball, last thing. And
then he throws it and I'm going, oh my god,
and you can see Dion's like what.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
Are you doing?

Speaker 1 (03:57):
And then you have to punt and they North Dakota
State almost made them pay for it. But it was fun.
It was fun to watch. But you know, that gap
we have between FCS and FBS, it might be a
little closer than what we really think. Because Montana State
got paid three hundred and fifty thousand dollars buy New
Mexico to go and play New Mexico and then go

(04:20):
to New Mexico and beat New Mexico. Montana State is
really good. Four point win. North Dakota State. They're the
second favorite for the national championship. So these are quality
teams there. You have about remember when Appalachian State would
play and they opened up with Michigan one year and

(04:40):
you're like, oh boy, that's not a team to open
up with, and then they ended up winning in Michigan.
You have that occasionally where you had these teams. South
Dakota State defending FCS champs. Now they're playing Oklahoma State
in Stillwater. Oklahoma State, I believe, has twenty starters back,
and I mean, would I be surprised if that game's

(05:02):
really closer South Dakota State won. I would not be
because they're nine and a half point underdogs, just like
North Dakota State was with Colorado. Oklahoma State is better
than Colorado. But these are two really good teams on
the road, and you know they need to do this.
They want to schedule out of conference. They want to
schedule with the bigger boys, so when they go back

(05:24):
and they're playing in their conference, in their division, that
they're ready to go. So you know, FCS, FBS, I
know it's sometimes not as blurred as we think it
should be. But there are probably five to seven programs
that can go toe to toe with some of these schools, now,
not Georgia, not Alabama, but with some of these other

(05:47):
schools absolutely, and Colorado taking on North Dakota State. I
don't know if Dion scheduled that, but you know that's
one of those where you go, wait, we're open up
with them. It's that's one of those where you go, well,
even TCU, but Colorado would get these games because people
probably wanted to schedule Colorado because they weren't very good.

(06:09):
Now with Colorado getting a little bit better, and you
certainly saw that last night, you know the schedule is
going to change where maybe you don't take chances like this,
but give credit, Colorado ended up winning the game. And
Travis Hunter is probably the leading candidate for the sept
Heisman the month of September. He is the Heisman front

(06:30):
runner so far only because the other front runners, the favorites,
haven't played. But he's great and I'm looking at the
number of plays that he was involved in. He played
one and twenty nine snaps, fifty seven on offense, seventy
two on defense. Wide receiver defensive back, corner safety, a

(06:53):
linebacker at one point. Pretty remarkable. I mean, the best
player on the field. And I know people are going
to say, and we talked about it last year, and
that is could he be a two way player? Talent
wise yes, time wise probably not, because you have to
be in the receivers meetings, offensive meetings, and then you'd

(07:16):
have to be in the defensive meetings. You have to
go out and then have reps at practice. I think
what will happen with Travis is he would probably be
a defense Like it's easier to find a wide receiver
than it is a great cornerback. You can find great
wide receivers, great cornerbacks. How many great cornerbacks do we

(07:36):
have in the NFL right now? Not a lot. We
have a lot of great wide receivers. He might go
in as a corner and then maybe you have ten
plays that you us him for five plays you're usinghim
for maybe a punt return. He's that talented. And Shardoor
Sanders is going to be a first round draft pick,
probably going to be a Heisman candidate, maybe more so

(07:59):
than you know, Travis Hunter. But Dion got the win,
and uh, it was fun I enjoyed that game. I
was not going to be surprised if North Dakota State
won that game. Also, you had other I thought North
Carolina Minnesota was going to be the game of the night,
and it turned out to be. Came down to the
final seconds. Minnesota had a chance to win that missed

(08:19):
a field goal. It was fun, fun to watch that
back and forth, and uh, North Carolina ended up getting
the win.

Speaker 2 (08:26):
Seaton, what's pull question today?

Speaker 5 (08:28):
Well, we could start with if you were Travis Hunter,
which would you play in the NFL offensive defense?

Speaker 1 (08:34):
Okay, well, you're going to get paid more as a
wide receiver if you're an elite wide receiver. But it
feels like, I mean, he might be just one of
those guys on defense that you do pay a lot
more because he's going to be reminiscent of Dion or
Durell Reeves, Champ Bailey, you know those guys that are

(08:56):
just difference makers. But I think he would go in
as a defensive back. But he I mean, he might
be looking at these salaries that these you know, receivers
are getting and going, yeah, it'd be nice to be
able to play defense. But nobody knows if you're great
as a cornerback. Nobody knows who you are because you're
not involved in plays, because you're taking away the best

(09:16):
wide receiver. The ball's not going over to you. And
as a wide receiver, you're gonna be in the conversation constantly,
So he might go you know, I kind of like
the money in the spotlight there as opposed to being
a lockdown corner.

Speaker 5 (09:29):
Yeah at six what six' one, six ' two, that's
pretty good guy.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
Yeah, it's for a corner.

Speaker 5 (09:34):
Yeah, you know what I like about him going in
as a as a cornerback. He would play every play
as a corner, and then you could sneak him in
as a wide receiver on the offense. Sure, if he's
a wide receiver, you're not sneaks throw him out in
corner for a couple of plays.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
Yeah, you know, yeah, yeah, Pauline.

Speaker 6 (09:49):
What if Travis Hunter went the other direction. I know,
you just laid out the reasons why you can't be
a semi full time to way player. What if he
did the same thing Otani did when he negotiated with
the MLB teams and said, I'm going to play full
time ish both ways, and that's how he ended up
at the Angels. Now he may drop in the draft
because of that, because if he's demanding like that, But

(10:10):
he could also be one of the more novel unique
players of the next generation in the NFL. If he
says I want to play forty plays a game on
both sides of.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
The ball, well, I don't know what his salary would be,
but you could get kind of two salaries if you're
playing two different positions, I would think. Now the question is,
are team's going to want him to play both? Allow
him to play both. But it certainly worked out for
Sho heeo Tani and the Angels. Yes, Todd, you could

(10:38):
squeeze too.

Speaker 7 (10:39):
Much out of a great player that can do both,
and then all of a sudden he's injured because he
asks too much of him to play offense and defense,
and now you've lost him for either side of the bay.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:47):
Well, I think he's talent enough that even at seventy
five percent at both positions, he's still going to be
pretty elite. He's great, But he was the number one
recruit in America and went to Jackson State with Dion
and then transferred when Dion left. But what other pole
questions are we thinking about today? Tod's got a couple
of interesting ones too. We didn't get to our usual

(11:08):
Thursday round of Todd bol questions, but he's back again
on Friday.

Speaker 2 (11:11):
Okay, cool, Okay.

Speaker 7 (11:14):
After watching the game last night, the Colorado Buffaloes are
going to be much better than I thought in trouble
and will struggle just to be Bowl eligible. How impressed
were you with the Buffaloes last night?

Speaker 1 (11:27):
I wasn't. I was impressed with a couple of players.
That defense is not good and North Dakota State could
run when they wanted to run. There was very little
pass rush, it felt like. But they're going to have
explosive plays. They're just going to be in shootouts. I
think you just have to lock yourself in and say
it's going to be a wild ride. Do I think

(11:50):
six wins? Seven wins possibility? Sure, just because you have
a great quarterback and you have a couple of great
wide receivers and Dion's they're still going to run the football.

Speaker 2 (12:01):
But I with.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
His son as the quarterback changing plays and Elias Scrimmage
and who knows. By the way, the four ranked teams
were in action last night, won by a combined score
of one to eighty six to twenty four. Western Carolina
scored twenty one of the twenty four points. They lost
to North Carolina State and uh Missouri and Utah had

(12:25):
shutouts there. Utah's quarterback is Cam Rising. He had five
touchdown passes. Utah blew out Southern Utah. He's a seventh
year senior, last of a last of a breed, seventh
year senior. Now, I watched the Rose Bowl when he
blew out his knee. That was twenty twenty three, and
here we are, and he is a seventh year senior.

(12:50):
Like we need to cap it. Like you should get
five years to play Mike, right. I mean, I know
you had the COVID and there's transfer portal, and but
seven years time down.

Speaker 6 (13:03):
To the real world. You're not an Idolsten, Yes, the
real world.

Speaker 8 (13:07):
The rest of us have to college.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
Now, I did stay on off campus at the University
of Dayton for a few years after I graduated. I
lived off campus, but I wasn't taking classes. I just
liked the atmosphere. You know, the beer was cheap, so
was the rent, and no short supply of shorties, if
you know what I mean.

Speaker 6 (13:27):
Yes, Pauli cam Rising was born in the nineties. That's
it entire statement.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
All right.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
Eight seven seven three DP show email andres Sdpadanpatrick dot
com Twitter handle a DP show Buddha in San Francisco.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Good morning, Buddha, no buddy.

Speaker 9 (13:49):
Happy to meet Friday Boys. Minister of humor. Let's go
baby DP. I don't know about Marvin, but I slept
a whole lot better her last night after getting Brandon
and I used notification last night. That was my goodness.
In the words of seeding jeepers, creepers, that was getting
ridiculous and uh Coach Prime, Dan wrote riding his two

(14:12):
horses and first round draft picks and Heisman hopefuls. I mean,
winning the opener was great and for content, but I
feel like Colorado is a ticking time bomb, Dan, like
they they only have so many wins in them and
then when they start losing, that's when it's gonna get
interesting and it starts unraveling because you know, Coach Prime
has got some got some ego there, but we'll see
how he handles it all. And I don't know, it's

(14:34):
just going to be interesting to watch. So you guys
have a great weekend.

Speaker 3 (14:37):
Boys.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Thank you Buddha. Can we look at Colorado's schedule? I
know they have Colorado State. Uh, the Big twelve isn't
as formidable as it has been.

Speaker 6 (14:48):
Yes, by the next few weeks at Nebraska at Colorado
State Home Baylor at Central Florida, Kansas State, Arizona, Cincinnati,
Texas Tech, Utah, Kansas, Oklahoma State. Okay, it's like all
be teams like.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Yeah, well Utah, Utah might be a really good team.
Utah might be in the in the playoffs. Oklahoma State's good.
I don't know if they're great, but okay, at Colorado State.
That was a great game last year. They could lose
at Nebraska. I don't even know what the line is

(15:26):
on that, but uh, Nebraska, I think it's going to
be a lot better. Star freshman quarterback.

Speaker 6 (15:34):
Yes, Pauline, just to give you an idea how old
Cam Rising is from Utah. He was in the same
recruiting class as Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields, Micah Parsons, amar
ros Saint Brown, and Jalen Waddle. Okay, all guys who
are going on to their second NFL contracts.

Speaker 2 (15:50):
Can you buy us some beer?

Speaker 4 (15:54):
Hey?

Speaker 2 (15:54):

Please?

Speaker 2 (15:59):
Hey, mister s could you buy us a six pack?

Speaker 5 (16:01):
Place runs and I are looking for a thirty pack.
We'll pay you extra anything as long as it's not
an ice.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
Did you guys ask people to buy you beer in
high school? But stay outside the convenience store off to
the side. Oh yeah, as you would see somebody who was, like,
I don't know, five years older than you, you'd be like, hey, hey, Mike,
yeah what I'm not buying you beer? I wasn't going
to ask you to, but you know, now that you

(16:31):
bring it up, would you buy some beer? A six
pack or something? All right, let me take a break.
Just getting started, we will settle on our pole question,
big college football weekend. We'll run down the point spreads.
There a couple of surprisers. There is surpriser worn surpriser weekend.

(16:51):
A couple of surprisers. See if surpriser is a word.

Speaker 3 (16:54):
There.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
We'll take a break. We're back after this. Fox Sports

Speaker 10 (17:09):
Paully fools gohere with Tony Foosco. Yeah, as everybody knows,
we're the hosts of the award winning Polly and Toni
Foosco Show. Yeah, but instead of us telling you how
great we are, here's how Dan Packrick described us when
he came on our show.

Speaker 1 (17:22):
Quick, knowledgeable and funny, opinionated.

Speaker 11 (17:25):
What are you doing?

Speaker 2 (17:26):
Were interrupting our promo? Yeah, you wasn't talking about you.

Speaker 8 (17:30):
You took those clips totally of context.

Speaker 10 (17:32):
Oh yeah, well after this promo, I'm gonna take you
out and beat you.

Speaker 2 (17:36):
Let me put this into context.

Speaker 9 (17:38):
Shut up.

Speaker 10 (17:39):
Yeah, anyway, just listening to the Paully and Tony Fusco
Show on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
Yee.

Speaker 1 (17:49):
College football coming up tonight, Temple against oh you, they're
getting forty two and a half, Fau getting third teen
and a half against Michigan State Western Michigan getting twenty
four against Wisconsin. Then college football this weekend Penn State,
West Virginia. Clemson's getting twelve against Georgia. That's a noon kickoff.

(18:15):
That might be too early for a game of that magnitude.
Too be too early, I think South Dakota State getting
nine and a half in Oklahoma State, Stillwater, Miami giving
two and a half to Florida. Notre Dame is getting
three at Texas A and M, and then LSU minus
four against USC. On Sunday night, Notre Dame, Texas A

(18:39):
and M, Clemson plus twelve against Georgia, and Penn State
is giving seven against West Virginia at West Virginia. I
mentioned this as we went to the commercial break. The
word that I was using is surpriser. The word is surpriser.

(19:05):
Is surpriser a word? Who wants to bet on it?
You want to play the dictionary game?

Speaker 2 (19:10):
It just sounds like it should be a word.

Speaker 6 (19:12):
There are many offshoots of the word surprise. Okay, surprise
is surprised. It's all tenses. Surprising. Is surpriser a word?

Speaker 2 (19:22):
Heck? Yeah, should be.

Speaker 6 (19:26):
It is not a word, but every year they add words.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
It's surpriser.

Speaker 6 (19:32):
They said, I actually emailed someone and they email me
back rapidly. H One who surprises would be the proper verbiage. Yeah,
but I don't want to have one who surprised. It's surpriser. Yeah,
you know what you call one who surprises? A surprise,
surpriser brevity. Yeah, like that. That that Johnson kid, he's he's.

Speaker 1 (19:50):
A surpriser, like Travis Hunter. He's a surpriser.

Speaker 5 (19:54):
I mean, we could do the monthly one who surprises
Award if we wanted to. I like the surpriser better,
but the one who surprises award has a ring to it.

Speaker 1 (20:05):
Surpriser sounds like your show on CBS. Ye Marvel character
tonight on the Surprise, Yes, Tom.

Speaker 7 (20:14):
Why do dictionaries do that? They use the word in
the different or having to do with surprising. How does
that help?

Speaker 6 (20:21):
How's that a definition of what Princey just said is
actually in the diction Yeah.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
A couple of phone calls in here Andrew and Washington
is back. Hi Andrew, good morning, what's on your mind?

Speaker 12 (20:34):
Good morning, Dan, Denn It's happy to meet Friday. I
hope you guys have a great weekend. But you know,
I really think that Dion is going more for the
Sanders Hunter show this year. You know, they might not
make another Bowl game, but he's going to make Travis
Hunter and Shadora Sanders a lot of money by moving
him up the draft boards. I took a look at
the Colorado College. You know as far as they're passing

(20:57):
yard records and their receiving yard records or Sanders already
has the single single season passing record, single game passing record,
He's number two in single season tds, number two in
single game tds, and will be top ten in career touchdowns,
will be top ten in career passing yards after the
next game. He has nine hundred and fifty five yards
of eight tds into two season openers for Colorado. Travis Hunter, well,

(21:22):
he's already got the most number two in receptions in
the game, number thirteen, and he tied the records for
most receiving tds in last night's game with three. So
I think he's just going to push those two to
the front. I don't know if a bowl game is
more important or making them up the draft board is
more important. What do you think?

Speaker 2 (21:38):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (21:38):
No, No, he needs to be Bowl eligible in the process.
If you can have your son and your star receiver
two way player, they're already going to be first round
draft picks. They could they I guess could play their
way out, but as of today, their first round draft
picks high first round draft picks. Certainly, Travis Hunter is
but you get the feeling should or Sanders. I don't

(22:01):
know where he is on the Heisman list there. I
guess he's in the top five. But Dylan Gabriel at
Oregon is considered the front runner there. He's going to
put up numbers. The question is, if you put up numbers,
people are going to say, what's your record? Winning games
would be the most important thing for Dion and Colorado
in the process. You're going to win those games because

(22:23):
of your son and Travis Hunter. But how many great
quarterbacks have played at Colorado? Let's run down the list
of I mean, Cordell was just a great football player.
I don't know if you would say, well, that's a
great quarterback. He was great in college. Who else comes
to mind at Colorado where you go, wow, not exactly quarterback?

Speaker 6 (22:49):
You No, not a lot of pro prospects came out
of there. I mean they had a bunch of guys
who were good in college. Like you said, that didn't
Darien Hagen and different players like that, But they never translated.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, but they weren't necessarily passing quarterbacks. You know, they're
probably more running quarterbacks there, or maybe a two dimensional there.
But Chadour's a passer. I mean he he throw he
wants to throw the football. Yes, yes, he could take
a hit too well. He yes, too many hits for

(23:21):
last year. I'm not saying that he wants to, but
I am saying he can. He could take one though,
for sure. Yeah, blown up a couple of times.

Speaker 5 (23:27):
He stood in the pocket tour or you know, at
least stood made the pass, you know, knowing he was
about to get crushed.

Speaker 6 (23:34):
Yeah, Paulie, I almost forgot. Koy Detmer played at Colorado
and was a career mostly career backup. Okay, like a
decade then.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
Here was no tie debtman, no no, uh. Jeff in Georgia, Hi,
Jeff in Georgia.

Speaker 11 (23:49):
Hey DP, good morning, morning guy. All right, so the
surpriser of the day, Paul, He's got to explain what's
up with the Auburn shirt this morning. I'm digging it.

Speaker 6 (24:00):
Okay, first on the pile.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
Oh, there was no strategy here with wearing an Auburn
football T shirt.

Speaker 6 (24:06):
Yeah, just to college football season, first shirt on the pile.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
Okay, I don't even I didn't even take inventory what
people are wearing. Marvin, you've got anything on today that.

Speaker 8 (24:14):
You're repping repping the merch. Oh, first Prince, first Prince

Eye team a few graphics. We had nine freshmen move

(25:03):
into UWSP. Yesterday was moving day, and you know, I
go to my kids back to school night last night
and I got all the teachers and they're not asking
about my kids that moved in. They're asking about Dan
Patrick if he's coming after his main trip. And I said,
you know, I said, you know, Dan's busy, but I
did want to pay you know, some respect for putting

(25:25):
that jersey up in the man cave. We worked up
a couple of commitment graphics for you. I didn't want
to slight you anyway. I was wondering if we could
release those on our social media channels and kind of
make this official. But before I do that, I got
a little nervous this morning. You can't be buying beer
for my younger players with you being a super senior.
I have no doubt you're going to be a surpriser Dan,

(25:47):
but we can't have that going on.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
In Stephen's point, yes, yes, coach, you can use you
can use me my likeness for social media and good
luck this upcoming season. Still waiting for my nil pathreckage
and uh, then I'll decide if I'm going to join
you guys this season.

Speaker 13 (26:05):
We said no nil though, right, Uh you know.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
What, I changed my mind. I'm just seeing, I'm just
seeing what great shooters are getting out there.

Speaker 13 (26:15):
Well, I'm going to talk to my athletics director. I
work up a package for you then, But thanks so
much for everything. We appreciate it and we'd love to
have you as a pointer when you're ready to come
to Stevens Point.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
Thank you, coach, thank you, thank you for the offer.

Speaker 1 (26:28):
Waiting for Doug Gottlieb maybe to reach out, but he
did say that his guards are better than Brownie James,
so maybe there's not a spot for me on Doug
Gottlieb's ron Ready for the upcoming season. Kevin in North Carolina, Hi, Kevin,
I would love to play, like even just one game exhibition. Yeah,
I mean they're not exhibition games. They're games friendly like no, no,

(26:52):
there are games like I'm going to take it like
it's it's important. No, no, No. The surpriser is I
would out there hustling. I would be going after loose balls.
Nobody was better at fake hustle than me. Like you
know you oh that ball almost got that. I had
no chance of Your.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
Shoes will squeak more than others? Sree?

Speaker 1 (27:14):
Yes, yes, I wanted to. You know you're going to
buy shoes and you go, okay, what are you looking for?
I want shoes that squeak because it makes it sound
like I'm hustling a little bit.

Speaker 2 (27:24):
Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeen, squeak. Hi, Kevin.

Speaker 4 (27:29):
Hey, Dan, I've got an old question option and also
idea for instead of eyes in the faith. The first
one is what is the biggest storyline edited in the
NFL that season? Is it the quarterback at Chicago with

(27:50):
Caleb Williams, or is it the quarterbacks at Pittsburg or
is it the brand new coach at the Chargers.

Speaker 1 (27:58):
The biggest story is the City Chiefs trying to threepeat.
I would think it is for me, like I'm looking
at the biggest the biggest picture question mark or question
it'd be then we haven't had that, then you have
what harbor? You know all the above, but it I'm

(28:19):
going to start at the end of the season and
that is kin Kansas City three peat and then it
will work our way back. Caleb Williams, I think I
think he's going to be really good. I think they're
going to be a lot of fun. Harball might take
a year or so, but I do think how he
is going to envision his offense to me is really

(28:42):
going to be fascinating. And then how do you use
Justin Herbert? Are you leading with Justin Herbert or are
you complimenting with Justin Herbert? Are you going to be
a running game offense? Are you going to just do
what you did at Michigan and then Justin Herbert is
going to play the JJ McCarthy role.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
I'm fascinated by that.

Speaker 1 (29:01):
But there's so many other storylines, and then there's storylines
that are going to emerge that you would never think
And that's the fun part of this.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
Yes, Pauline.

Speaker 6 (29:09):
One that's not top toier. Storyline that I'm really fascinated
by is what do the Philadelphia Eagles do this year
after the two different seasons they had last year? Because
it feels like this team could some people pick them
to win thirteen games another I see other people saying
their coach is going to get fired. They're a pretty
fascinating team from a season perspective.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
They got too much talent, it feels like to screw
this up, But then last year they went ten to one,
and then they screwed it up. I just need to
know is the coach going to be on the same
page with the quarterback and vice versa, because if that happens,
then you're going to have a great season. If not,
then all of a sudden, you know Bill Belichick's online

(29:49):
one yes seton.

Speaker 5 (29:50):
You're going into the season with a player poll calling
your quarterback supremely overrated. Yes, that's yeah, like to some
degree for a team that that's really really good, they
can't I don't know if they can't catch a break
or are they really good or are they just barely
hanging on? I like, are they underperforming or are they

(30:14):
it's weird.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
Well, if you have a great offensive line, all right,
you have a great running back, you have some really
good receivers, just start there. How many teams in the
NFL have that really good offensive line? Now, granted you
got to replace Jason Kelsey, but you got a really
good offensive line, you got playmakers, and you've got a

(30:37):
quarterback who's a playmaker as well.

Speaker 2 (30:41):
The only handful of teams have that. Now.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
The big question for me is the defense secondary going
to be good? You know you lost Hausan Reddick, he's
still holding out. How do you make a trade for
a guy and then you don't sign him or you
can't sign him or did you talk to him before?
I mean, it's jetsy, And I know that's not a

(31:07):
word either.

Speaker 6 (31:08):
It should be. When you completely screw things up for.

Speaker 1 (31:11):
Decades, it's called jetsy. Yeah, what did they do? They
Jetsy in this situation, how do you do that? Though
you make the trade? It feels like he's like, all right,
I'm gonna get paid. Didn't you discuss something here, like
something small, like what do you want to get paid?

Speaker 2 (31:32):
Oh? That might be too rich for us. We're not
going to make the trade.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
Crazy, but America, hopefully you slept well last night. Because
Brandon Ayuk is back with the forty nine ers. And
then he signed his deal. We said, all along, are
you looking for salary that is probably commensurate to being
an A receiver?

Speaker 2 (31:54):
Well you're not going to get that.

Speaker 1 (31:56):
But he's a B plus receiver B B plus and
he got four years, and uh, I guess everything is good.
He immediately signs and then all of a sudden, analysts
start talking about, well, let's see if Debo's with this team.
I go, wait, what happened here? So now not everybody's
gonna get paid or continue to get paid. Trent Williams,

(32:19):
I guess he's still holding out.

Speaker 2 (32:23):
Rock party is.

Speaker 1 (32:24):
I wonder what he's thinking, because he's gonna get sixty
million dollars a year. Imagine walking into the locker room
and having everybody go, yeah, he's probably gonna be the
reason why I'm playing for Carolina next year. It's see,
it's sixty million, or it's nothing, like you either have
to go here's sixty or you move on from Rock Purty.

(32:46):
But then all of a sudden, it's going to be like, uh, Okay,
that guy might be expendable, and that guy might be expendable.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Fred Warner might be expendable. Yes, But I don't know.

Speaker 5 (32:58):
If all locker room worked that way right, because there
was this one piece of video a few weeks back
that I thought was really shocking. But I'm not in
NFL locker rooms. But did you see Caleb Williams standing
up in front of the whole team and they had
to do this like introduction kind of thing. And I
don't know if this is hazy, I don't know if
it's whatever, but he's like, Hey, what's up. I'm Caleb Williams,
I'm quarterback. I went to USC like my favorite cover

(33:21):
color is blue whatever, and my signing bonus was thirty
five million dollars or something like that, and the whole
room went nuts. Oh not in a way of like
oh great, that's why I'm not getting paid.

Speaker 2 (33:34):
But like, hell, yeah, this dude is getting paid. Awesome.
I don't know, but he's not making sixty million dollars
a year.

Speaker 5 (33:42):
Correct, However, his signing bonus was more than almost the
entire room will making their career. Yes, that's still that
kind of money.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
Right, He's not gonna cost you a roster spot the
amount of money that he's making the next couple of years,
this time, the next time in four years, he's gonna
walk in and they're gonna go. He's gonna make seventy
five million dollars a year, right, yes, he is. All right,
Let me take a break. Play the day coming up

Speaker 1 (34:38):
On the reaches up makes the spectacular crab touchdown touchdown Colorado.

Speaker 2 (34:44):
He's an alien, he's a freak, he's a news.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
He's the best player in college football and the Buffaloes
take a ten point lead.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
Thirdly, the twenty Septem Heisman.

Speaker 1 (34:58):
Deerfield Sports with the call Tram Hunter great catch for

Speaker 2 (35:05):

Speaker 5 (35:26):
Paul You wouldn't that actually be the Augusteisman?

Speaker 2 (35:30):
Mm oh oh wow.

Speaker 5 (35:32):
I mean he would be sneaking into the end of
the month to win the August Heisman and have a
good start for the Septemsman.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
But we're a little early. Yeah, you got me on
a technicality there. Yes, Pauline, we've.

Speaker 6 (35:45):
Considered the Ogsman as an award, but it's such a
limited window. He'd already be his already. But we really
once college football starts, it is fall, and it is September.
Technically it's August, but we don't honor that anymore.

Speaker 5 (35:57):
Now, sound like summer starts at correct this day or whatever.

Speaker 1 (36:00):
Yeah, if there's college football at football, it's not the
summer solstice.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
I love watching Jeopardy sometimes when they have sports questions
because then I dominate. But I wonder, and Fritzy was
just playing something an old clip with Alex Trebek where
you had, you know, three contestants up there. They didn't know,
like Tom Landry was the coach of this team, and
they're just like staring at Alex Negos, Tom Landry. I

(36:26):
get very snarky. But then I wonder if they laugh
at us with all the other you know, if you
have you know the what is it Todd the Pythagren theorem?

Speaker 7 (36:36):
Yeah, what is the double replacement reaction? Are coefficients and subscripts?

Speaker 2 (36:42):
That they laugh at us when we don't know that?

Speaker 6 (36:44):
What is Lewis and Clark? Yeah, Lewis and Clark that
they on the Niners know that was Montana.

Speaker 2 (36:52):
You didn't know that.

Speaker 1 (36:54):
I wonder if they they nerd out on us not
knowing the regular things, the things that are important in the
world world.

Speaker 6 (37:00):
Who is John Wilkes Booth, I don't know, does he
play for the Cubs both Booth.

Speaker 7 (37:05):
I rather know who John always in like, what are
the Himalayas? I don't like that, doesn't do anything? Can
be God blessed.

Speaker 1 (37:09):
Scott in Houston? Hi Scott, what's on your mind?

Speaker 13 (37:13):
Good morning guys?

Speaker 2 (37:14):
Good morning? Oh Marvin? Did you just accidentally hang up
on Scott? I did not know? Maybe Tyler did. How
about Greg in Vegas?

Speaker 14 (37:25):
Hi?

Speaker 2 (37:25):
Greg? How are you head?

Speaker 12 (37:29):
How was going?

Speaker 2 (37:30):
Everything's great?

Speaker 14 (37:32):
Well marking peak hockey and I have him so anyways, real,
real quick graduate of Clemson University. Uh, we had a
good run. But I think Doubo's time is up.

Speaker 9 (37:48):
Wow.

Speaker 14 (37:50):
Transfers he withdraws offer scholarship offers if they go on
another visit after he offers them, and he just as
like a holier than now attitude. I just scaring them.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
But everybody was, okay, when you're winning titles. Now all
of a sudden you've got problems with Dabbo. Does he
need to catch up with you know, modern times with
college football? Yes, but he has his principles. This is
who he is, this is who he's been. And you
don't want to take transfers nil? Okay, you know, good

(38:27):
luck with that. It's probably why you're a twelve point
underdog against Georgia. But they used to be there. In
the running Clemson, Clemson was mentioned top five teams. Clemson
was always mentioned, but not as much anymore. And now
it feels like you have a problem with Dabo, where
before he probably didn't when you're winning, Yes, Marvin.

Speaker 8 (38:50):
Shouldn't he be on scholarship at a place like Clemson.
They didn't win a national title for like forty years
until he got there. It's not like it's Alabama or
come on, let's not even play this game.

Speaker 1 (39:00):
It's weird how that happens, where all of a sudden,
like the Cubs, Hey, you win a World Series.

Speaker 2 (39:05):
And then well, hey, when an't we gonna win again?

Speaker 1 (39:09):
Joe Madden wins a World Series for the Cubs, You're like,
they should he should be emeritus.

Speaker 2 (39:15):
It's like, Joe, we're gonna have to let you go.

Speaker 1 (39:19):
Terry Francona with the Red Soxe, it's like, ungrateful, Terry,
come on, man, you lost the locker room. We're gonna
have to let you go. Wow, that didn't take long, Yes, Paul.

Speaker 6 (39:30):
You go back to twenty fifteen, Clemson had a run
of fourteen wins, fourteen wins, twelve wins, fifteen wins, fourteen wins.
They were basically semi running college football. They're about a
five year window.

Speaker 2 (39:41):
Yeah, but in the.

Speaker 6 (39:41):
SEC they'll pull your scholarship quick.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
Tom in North Carolina, Hi Tom.

Speaker 11 (39:48):
Hey, dB.

Speaker 15 (39:49):
I really enjoyed the I really enjoyed the Gambling podcast yesterday.
I think maybe PAULI should go on there. I actually
want some money on that Georgia Tech he gave last week.
I'm wondering. I'm wondering if he's gonna do one every week. Also,
there's a question about the podcast. Is there gonna be

(40:11):
a mass singer reveal on someone on the Gameling podcast
this year?

Speaker 1 (40:17):
I don't think Shane Irving wants to reveal himself, and
I'm fine with that. He said, you know, Danny, I've
got a job. But I said, it's up to you
if you want people to know. He aren't up to you,
and if you don't, then it's okay. It's been a
mystery for a long long time, and having met Shay
and he has a respectable job, I get it.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
Maybe he doesn't want people to see what he looks like.
But yeah, see.

Speaker 5 (40:47):
Is that a sign of humility or of not sure
you're living life the right way?

Speaker 2 (40:54):
I would say it's the latter those two. Do I
just really value my privacy?

Speaker 13 (40:58):
No?

Speaker 1 (40:59):
Or I think he's done some things in his life
that he doesn't want people to know what he looks like. Yes,
because he's entertaining the Dan Patrick Takes a Gamble podcast,
available at Danpatrick dot com.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
WHOA I mean? Not Safe for work? By the way?

Speaker 1 (41:20):
Hour two on the way, Brady Quinn will stop by
part of the big noon kickoff Penn State in West
Virginia coming out
