Lakers the Battle of La so called Battle Luca and
Lebron and Austin Reeves combined for ninety nine points as

(02:12):
the Lakers beat the Clippers. LA's won five in a
row eleven of their last thirteen. Lucas scores twenty in
the first eight minutes, thirty two at halftime, finished with
forty three, with thirteen assists nine rebounds. Lebron added twenty
five and Reeves had thirty one and nine rebounds. James
Harden had twenty nine for the Clippers, who have lost

(02:35):
eleven of thirteen.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
I've talked about the pace that.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
Some players play at and Luca very similar to when
Kawhi was playing at a high, high level. So Kawhi
it almost like the game came to him slowed to
his pace, and Luca does that as well. But Luca
at six', eight and you, know guys who guard him
talk about his, strength that he loves to use your

(03:02):
body against. His he'll he'll find the. Separation he doesn't move,
fast he doesn't move, quick but he moves with. Purpose
and sometimes you can see guys who are you, know fast,
quick and they're moving all over the, place but it
takes them a long longer time to get to where
they need to get. To, lebron you, know knows where
he's supposed to. Go he can be efficient certain players

(03:25):
they're efficient. WITH i need to get, There joker is that.
Way i'm not, Fast i'm not, quick BUT i need
to get to. There and then WHEN i get to,
there then you have to play to my strengths and
that's What luca. Does and it's very like you're watching
and you're, going how's he doing? This and it reminds
me of the guy when you go to the LOCAL

(03:47):
ymca and you got the guy that you don't think
is a, player but you got to have a guy
that's going to be able to be the tenth, guy
and you, go, Right i'll take. Him, well that's the
guy who probably Played Ivy league basketball and he's ten
fifteen years older than everybody, else but he moves at
his pace and seems to find IF i get, There

(04:08):
i'm going to take advantage of. You and that's what
you get With. LUCA i, Mean i'm still amazed Because
joker is seven feet tall and his, shot you, know
he probably shoots. It you, know he's eight and a
half feet. Tall when he's shooting. That, luca you're still
watching and you're, going how can somebody not lock that?

(04:29):
Down you, know when you get the guy who's a,
counterpuncher and that's exactly what he, is that you're going
to get a, guy you know who's going to be
younger on, you more athletic on. You but it just
feels like understanding the science of the. Game and it's
a lost art, really BECAUSE i think we get caught
up In, man.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
Did you see that guy? Jump, yeah but he can't shoot.

Speaker 3 (04:51):
Her you, know.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
Maybe he doesn't understand angles and basketball is all about.
Angles BUT i do fall in love with that when
you see certain. Players you, Know Tim duncan couldn't, jump
wasn't the fastest quickest, guy but he got to points
on the basketball floor and then it was to his.
Strength and that's the amazing part of some of these
players that we keep, Going, oh that guy's got to be.

(05:18):
Good look how athletic he, is or he can jump
out of the. GYM i, Mean mac McClung can't play
in THE. Nba he can. Dunk we got, athleticism but
getting from POINT a to POINT.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
B And Stephan curry's the same.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
Way when we were In tahoe AND i stand next To,
Steph i'm eye to eye To Steph, curry and we
probably weigh around the. Same MAYBE i may weigh a little,
more but in a similar. Shot, oh BUT i, mean
the list goes on and. On at the, point are
you know WHAT i? Mean but you're, thinking how does

(05:55):
that guy do what he. Does it's under standing what
you do well and what somebody doesn't do. Well my
goal every time down on the floor is to put
you in a position that you don't want to be,
in and your goal is to put me in a
position that you want to put me. IN i always
loved it when you know you play against a left

(06:16):
handed guy and then you are going to force him
to go to his. Right, now we don't do that
to a right handed player, necessarily but that left handed,
guy somehow he has no idea how to go to his.
Right And i'm GOING i think we're past that profiling.
Here left handed, guy he has no idea how to
use that right. Hand right handed, guy of course he

(06:37):
can go to his. Left, Yeah, paulie you can.

Speaker 4 (06:39):
Make the case that the top three players in THE
Nba Yo, Kich sga And. Luca right, now if you're
saying the top three, guys there's a couple. Others but
they all play with, measured controlled place and, pace and
they're not explosive. Guys they meander around the, court they
find their. Spots they have very similar, games different.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Sizes, yeah you want just and he is, efficient you,
know mid range, jumper that ability to get.

Speaker 2 (07:06):
To The hoop's not a deep, shooter.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
But but it's he he brings the game the game
slows to his.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Pace, Yes, marvin there's.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
A guy THAT i Compared luca.

Speaker 5 (07:18):
To maybe not in the way they, play but body
type and they can get their shot.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
Off Paul. Pierce, yeah not really.

Speaker 5 (07:25):
Athletic, yeah Besides Kevin, durant the only other person THAT
i saw that Gave lebron the most problems Was Paul.
Pierce Paul pierce got his shot off whenever he wanted
to against. Whoever it didn't even, matter and you, Know
lebron's the most athletic GOTT nba has probably ever.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
Seen didn't. Matter he got to his spot and he
got his shot.

Speaker 1 (07:44):
Off it is fascinating when you watch these. Guys and
Because i'm, WATCHING i Watched Seaton haul AGAINST usc last
night and that was a good.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
Game it's a good. Game, yeah good.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
GAME usc missed down most of the, game and, Uh
Seaton hall played really. Hard but you're watching the both
ends of the, Court you're, like, damn these guys are
athletic as hell and flying all over the. PLACE i,
mean but then you go to THE nba And you'll
see these guys who slow the game down and you

(08:20):
know you're going up for a shot and they're flying
by you and you take your jumper.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
There, uh just.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
Finding a, way like figuring it. Out and then once you,
do once you unlock that because every year you got
to add, great great offensive. Plays you're always adding what
AM i gonna? Do you, Know jordan, Said i'm gonna
go down, Low i'm not going to go to the.
Hoop i'm gonna post you. Up everybody has magic learned
how to, shoot you, know his kind of set shot,
there become became a better. Shooter you all have to

(08:48):
add because the defense is always going, okay oh my,
god you just added. That it's like a pitcher who,
Adds like If Paul's skemes adds another, pitch you're gonna be, like.

Speaker 2 (08:58):
Damn you, know we thought we caught. Up at least
we understood what to.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
Expect you, Know Clayton kershaw when he added another pit you,
know those kind of. Things that's what the great players.
Do you get to a certain point now is when
the game really. Starts but Watching luca And luca in,
shape he's going to put Up he'll probably have another
one of those sixty twenty games that he had a

(09:23):
couple of years.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
Ago.

Speaker 6 (09:24):
Yeah, see he's Just luca's just baffling to watch it really,
is because he just don't understand why is this? Working
SO i, KNOW i, KNOW i know not and not
in LIKE i know that that sounds, negative but it's
just kind of like looking, like how is this dude doing?

Speaker 2 (09:39):
That like he?

Speaker 6 (09:40):
Could it feels like he could play this exact same
style of game until he's fifty.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
Five, yeah can still be. Effective well that's What i've
said About. Joker it's not like he's slowing down because he's.
Slow it's not like he's not going to be able to.
Jump he can't, Jump so what's it going to.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
Be it'll be just. Motivation does he want to continue to?

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Play and he's one of the those guys where somebody will, say,
hey gear About. Joker What yeah he's? Done AND i
don't think anybody's gonna be. Surprised he'd be, like all,
right well he played as long LONGER i thought he. Would, Yeah,
PAUL i wonder.

Speaker 4 (10:11):
If the style of these guys LIKE sga and the
slow paced.

Speaker 3 (10:15):
Will trickle down to the youth.

Speaker 4 (10:17):
Level BECAUSE i can't imagine a fifteen year old, Going
i'm gonna meander around the court and work my way
into pockets LIKE. SGA i don't know if that would
be allowed or they'd have the wherewithal to do.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
It nobody can be Like, joker like that's we always, Go,
oh that guy's the Next Larry. Burt, no, no it's
no Next Larry. Burt, ah he's the. Next there's no Next,
magic there's no Next. Michael these guys have all created something,
unique AND i can't imagine somebody, going, Uh i'm gonna
slow things down a little bit.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
Here luca's playing how he has to.

Speaker 1 (10:52):
Play this isn't you, know, hey, Premeditated i'm gonna slow.
IT i mean this is how he Played, Joker this
is how he PLAYS. Sga, hey this is how they.
PLAY i don't think they play to disrupt you because
you're going fast at frenetic. Pace but just watching, scores,
yeah like. Iverson you, know it's just fascinating to be

(11:13):
able to watch, that Watch Steve nash play and you're.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
Like how did?

Speaker 1 (11:19):
That doesn't make any sense? There you, know What Dirk
novitsky was doing that wasn't done before that you, know
you're just you're. Seeing and that's what makes basketball so
great is there's not one. Style you, know with, quarterbacks
it used to be you got to be six or
five and you gotta have a. Gun you, KNOW i
got to be able to throw at eighty. Yards, no you.

(11:40):
Don't and basketball is the same. Way it's all shapes
and sizes and how somebody gets it. Done and How
Wes unseld was six to seven and he was the
center and a FORMER mvp six to. Seven moses' mom
couldn't jump one of the greatest rebounders of all. TIME i,
mean basketball is littered with guys where you go huh

(12:03):
And Luca JOKER. Sja that's just another wave coming in of,
huh how did they do?

Speaker 5 (12:10):
It, Yeah, Marvin, yeah it's. Crazy good basketball players be good.
Athletes THE nba draft is the most fascinating thing to
me because you'll get a guy that averaged eight points
At arizona and he's drafted fourth. Overall my, wait but
this guy ever's twenty five at wherever and he's.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Undrafted dan In La, Hi Dan woo's on your mind?

Speaker 7 (12:30):
Today, Hey, danny can can you hear?

Speaker 1 (12:33):

Speaker 4 (12:33):

NOW i got you all.

Speaker 7 (12:35):
Right, WELL i want to say happy Thankful Me, wednesday
kind of on the back Of. Buddha hopefully the traggers
and the middle light are at the proper. Temperature SO
i had a burning question from the other week WHEN
i was Watching clooney on The talk Showed. Kimmel he
was talking about working With sandler and his jump shot
in his, game AND i was, LIKE i wonder What

(12:56):
danny would. Think who has the best jump shot between
the three of, You, Clooney? Sandler are? You Because i've
Seen clooney in person hit, like you, know seventy footer
off of a truck, bed And i'm, like that dude can.
Shoot who's the best shoot of?

Speaker 1 (13:12):
That, well the fact That George clooney went to the
same church THAT i went to growing, up he probably
was there praying to have a shot like. Mine i'm
guessing my shot is definitely better Than. Sandler george has
a nice, shot a nice.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
Shot is it? Better, no it's not better than. Mine
but but.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
He's a he was a good, athlete played baseball high.
SCHOOL i think he went to The reds. Tryout he
might have been at The reds tryout THAT i went
to they, had you, know all these people from around the.
State he was In kentucky and you go there and
you have this, big massive, tryout and then they cut,
people and then they cut, people and they cut. People
But george good, athlete good. Athlete, Yeah Pone sandler's a

(13:56):
good pickup ball. Player he'll get you the ball down.
Low he does the pick and. Roll he has a
nice little hip hop move that he has and he
just kind of puts it up from ten.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
Feet he's a good.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
Passer sandman is a willing, passers not a good, shooter
but he's he's kind of gritty and.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Cuddy, Yes, mark you hate he's. Dribbling, YES i, do
because it carries the balls he.

Speaker 5 (14:17):
Does, yeah but he will play pick up anywhere in
A hawaiian shirt.

Speaker 1 (14:22):
Anywhere WHEN i was taking him to dinner a few
weeks back and he, Said, Danny i'm gonna play a
pickup game And i'll meet you at the, RESTAURANT i, said,
OKAY i mean it's kind of a nice, restaurant all, Right.
Danny so he's got His hawaiian shirt, on he's playing
a pickup. Game he's the only white guy out, there and,

(14:43):
uh you, Know sandman is trying to hold. IT i,
mean these guys are probably twenty five years younger than,
him But sandman hangs in.

Speaker 2 (14:51):
There he loves, it and he'll bang around with.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
You and then of course he gets done playing like three,

Tomorrow believe that's a Noon eastern. Kickoff Mike, golig junior
co host Of golie And golick On FanDuel's Sports, network
Former Notre dame offensive lineman and back on the. Program

(17:53):
great to see, you bud. Him give me the most
must win game of the weekend for?

Speaker 2 (17:57):
You, ooh the? Most what do you want to either?
One the most must win is WHO i.

Speaker 9 (18:05):
Would say the most must win this week and to
me feels like the game For Ryan. Day Like Ohio
states accomplished a, lot this team would still be in
the playoff even with the, loss but considering the recent
run they've been on and everything, else that's finally mounted
in his. Favor this is kind of the last remaining
box to check and it's it's strange because this YEAR

(18:26):
i feel so much better About Ohio state provided their
best wide receivers are. Healthy even though last year going
into this game they were favored by more it was
a far Worse michigan team than the one they're going
against this. Year BUT i just think the matchup in
a bunch of the key, areas Specifically Ohio states defense
and What Matt patricia has done versus a freshman quarterback For,

(18:47):
michigan even at home where he's been better this, season
it feels like a tough. One SO i think if
You're Ryan, day, hey you've got the fan base back
on your side after the run you went on last.
Year if you really want to stamp your place now
in the law of this rivalry and at the helm
of this, TEAM i think you got to win this.

Speaker 2 (19:03):
Weekend do you imagine If michigan, Won oh IT'S i.

Speaker 9 (19:07):
Mean and the thing, is we went through this last
year where people were legitimately it felt like Around columbus
starting to talk About Ryan day's job in a way
that feels insane for all the rest of us that
see What Ohio state, has what he's, accomplished but you
understand those games mean more and those pain points in
these rivalry series are always tough to come.

Speaker 2 (19:28):
By so, YEAH i don't know what it would.

Speaker 9 (19:29):
Do he's they're not going to do anything because he
won the championship and still could this. Year but it
just would make things really awkward of The thanksgiving dinner
table this year and next year if it.

Speaker 1 (19:38):
Happened now, you of, course we're an offensive lineman At
Notre dame and probably you know keep an eye On
Notre dame far more than most of. Us But i'm,
wondering wondering if this style of running the football to
a national, title can they do?

Speaker 9 (19:52):
THAT i think they, can AND i think doing that
is easier because you also have a quarterback that's now
been able to stretch the field and the way that's
Different like last, Year dan looking At Notre dame When
Riley lennon was the quarterback that was A, hey there
are no frills and no questions about how we're going

(20:12):
to do. This we're going to hand the ball off
a bunch of these running. Backs our quarterback when we
get into fourth and one is going to be a
human battering ram and he is even going to erase the.
EDGES i think back to The georgia game last year
in THE cfp run For Notre dame Where Riley leonard
gets through the perimeter and AGAINST sec CALIBER nfl caliber
athletes Like Jalen, walker who is going to go on
against The, Falcons he's erasing the edge against them and

(20:35):
finding the. Perimeter so that team was that there WERE
i said it was masters of the obvious last year
For Notre, dame and everything they did this, year there's
a little bit more sleight of hand BECAUSE cj cars
come in and stretch the. Field for this, team the
explosive play, rate their ability to hit downfield with players
Like Malati, fields the transfer wide receiver From, VIRGINIA i
think have put defenses in a conundrum and look no

(20:58):
further than WHAT usc did decided to do Against Notre
dame when it came To South. Bend Notre dame with
two prolific running backs runners up for The heisman right,
now AND usc, said we would rather not have your
passing attack beat. Us so we're going to put two safeties.
Deep we're going to play back and try and take
away the passing, attack and as a, Result Notre dame
handed off the ball over and over again and broke

(21:18):
their will in that game BECAUSE usc had to do
the math problem ended up guessing. Wrong and that's the
Ability Notre dame has this year that makes it. Different
but the engine that still makes it all go Is
Jeremiah love AND i absolutely think he's a great enough
player for them to ride to a.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
Title If Lane kiffen would answer the, question what question
would you, Ask, hey what.

Speaker 9 (21:41):
Are we doing?

Speaker 2 (21:42):
Here?

Speaker 9 (21:42):
Bud LIKE i think outside of you know, What, dan
the obvious of what are we doing is why? Now,
like why would you force the issue on this? Now
and is he at the helm of? That because we've
seen plenty of instances of coaches that we knew were
kind of rumored for the certain things play, out what
they've got going, on and the way that this has

(22:03):
all played out really publicly With Old miss to, ME
i always feel worse for the players like, That what
a disservice to the players on this team right. Now
everything that's happened with this, situation whether it's The Old
Miss brass that forced the, ultimatum whether it was just
too much to bear. Internally you got a team that's
in the top ten of college football that we haven't
talked about on the field and god knows how, long
because we're all wondering if their coach is even going

(22:26):
to be with them after the rivalry game this. Weekend
SO i just, wonder especially with the opportunity ahead of
them in a college football world that's infinitely more accessible
in terms of who can win the, title you had
one of those, teams and now it seems like everyone
involved might be willing to walk away from the table
and let that team go into the playoff with an

(22:46):
interim head coach or a head coach that knows he's
going to be gone to greener past. Years the whole,
situation it just is, bizarre AND i feel bad for
the players who will put so much into the season
and have had that certainly upended by. This but could
putent actually be even more upended after this?

Speaker 1 (23:01):
Weekend, yeah AND i wonder if it comes out if
he tells the team prior to that he's, LEAVING i
would say put it on the players to vote if
they Want Lane kiffin to be their coach after this
for the, playoffs even though you, know the committee made
ding them If Lane kiffin is not their head, coach and.

Speaker 9 (23:20):
Yeah, yeah, sorry sorry about, That, Dan but, NO i
saw that point. Made AND i don't know we've seen
the committee ding teams for interesting. Things BUT i do
think that's the right. Approach it should be on the
players if it comes down to that, decision and if
they're comfortable enough with that and, say, hey you still
give us the best chance to win this, season especially
considering a bunch of those players could follow him if he.

(23:43):
Goes this is The Dan agent college football we live,
in where you could pluck the core of your roster
and help reset the foundation elsewhere there might be a
little bit. Less oh you're leaving us here than there
used to, be and so maybe with some of that mercenary,
mindset these guys could be more comfortable with.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
That the most we're talking To Mike.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
Gullig you're your co host Of golick And golick On
Fanduels Sports.

Speaker 2 (24:03):
Network, yeah just trying to figure this.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
Out of these how did we get to the point
where you're somebody's talking to somebody about your next job
during a. SEASON i know what, happens but why did
it have to happen this. Way why couldn't this wait
until the end of the season or at least when
you get into you, know the, Playoff LIKE i don't
know it just it feels like coaches don't want, distractions

(24:29):
but the coaches created the, distraction and that's what you.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
Know that has to be a better way to do,
This mike there DOES i think all of it to
me just boils down to like the. Pressure.

Speaker 9 (24:41):
Now don't get me, wrong like some of the way
that this has been framed Around Lane, kiffin like he's
got a role in this. Too this is not just
something that's happening to. Him SO i don't want to
use this as like a way to make him a
victim of circumstance that he, is at least in part helped.
Create BUT i do think this all stems from the
pressure to win now in college that leads to the

(25:03):
massive buyout that we've seen because all these coaches, Understand,
hey especially in this day and, age when you can
come in an overhaul roster in one year with the,
PORTAL i got to come in and show your results
now because if not in two or three years at these,
places you wind up Like Brian kelly having to fight
for your buyout with the school that's trying to go
back and fire you for cause for ways that don't make.

Speaker 2 (25:21):
Sense and so what does that?

Speaker 9 (25:22):
MEAN i have to get in because the transfer portal
window did used to open during the playoffs In december
and now opens In. January so we've got to get
ahead start on that. Class i've got to get a
head start on recruiting the next group of guys they're
going to be in high, school and just get the
things going here at a time where we've created more
postseason than ever, before so it's going to affect more

(25:42):
games when you pull out and do. That and SO
i think all of, that that urgency of, hey If
i'm going to take this next big opportunity forever's got
to start, Tonight like we've got to get going on this,
now because if we, don't we're already behind this ever churning.
Machine and if you all behind too far now all
of a, sudden you're the guy with the massive buyout

(26:03):
getting ready to go on college, Game.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
Help me understand. THIS i know we want to protect
THE nfl. Players we've changed the kickoff. Rule do we
not want to protect the college. Players why don't we
have the same kickoff formation in college as we do
in THE.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
Nfl, Dan it's.

Speaker 9 (26:19):
A great, question AND i have no idea college in
so many ways is resistant to doing things anywhere close
to THE nfl level in like weird little bits of minute.
Details And i'd, agree, now maybe the people at large in,
college although it's not like you've got AN nflpa in
college that can commission studies and THE nfl central, Body,

(26:40):
like no one runs this in college, football and so no.
One maybe the conference heads can do it within the
big tag of THE sec or THE, acc but like
there's no one here that's going to amass the data
that cares enough about it to then try and get
it implemented across the whole. Sport like this is part
of the difficulty in college football of having no one

(27:01):
in charge of anything that's going. On because you're, right
if that at the highest level of football is something
they felt was necessary in one of the most violent
plays of the, sport then, yeah it would to me
make an overwhelming amount of sense for player safety, reasons
for continuity reasons for these guys going to the next,
Level like your job is to win games in. College
BUT i do think if you can do it in

(27:23):
such a way that helps prepare guys for the biggest
job interview of their. Life, hey that's probably not a
bad deal either overall. Structurally so your guest as good as.
Mine at your, peak could you take down a turkey?
Dinner oh, yeah. Absolutely at my, PEAK i was a bottomless.
PIT i was a bunch of raccoons in a trench,
code not just.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
One so, yeah, NO i was about that.

Speaker 1 (27:45):
Life but then you got your dad and your Brother
jake is even bigger than every you.

Speaker 9 (27:50):
Guys, yeah it was a competition for resources at the
table every year in the goal of Family, thanksgiving like
there was no.

Speaker 2 (27:58):
Room for manners.

Speaker 9 (27:59):
Orum you just had to get in there and get
what you thought was yours established dominance at the, table
or else you were going to be sitting there with
a plate that was lacking around everybody else who was enjoying.
Themselves SO i like to think that was where the
competitive fire was, born not on in the athletic, field
but just having to scrap it out for food at.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
Home Happy, Thanksgiving good to talk to, You thank, You,
Mike happy Thanks getting to appreciate It Mike, golick junior

Speaker 1 (29:30):
YOU i mentioned in the first HOUR i spent a
couple hours last night on the phone talking to a
couple of college football, sources And i've saying what went
wrong With Brian kelly AT. Lsu and one of my sources,
said he doesn't recruit. Like he's not a touchy Feely,
HEY i want to be. There he's just not that.
Guy and he spent a lot of time, golfing spent

(29:53):
a lot of time In florida, golfing AND i, thought,
wait he wanted to win a national. Championship he wanted
to go TO lsu because he couldn't win a national
title At Notre. Dame and my source said he just
seemed disconnected from the. Kids he doesn't he's not a big.
RECRUITER i don't think anybody likes. Recruiting but it felt

(30:13):
like he was maybe not all in AT, lsu which
is what's really. Surprising AND i don't know if they
try to come up with cause to not pay him
all of his, money And Brian kelly's come out and
said they're trying to sabotage, him AND i don't know
any information about, that but he just didn't seem like

(30:35):
he was all in on that.

Speaker 2 (30:36):
Job and THEN i asked one of my.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
SOURCES i, Said, hey you Got Chip kelly who just
got fired At Las vegas The.

Speaker 2 (30:45):
Raiders can you see him getting back into college?

Speaker 1 (30:49):
Football and one of my sources, said If Brian, hartline
who's the offensive coordinato At Ohio, state leaves for a,
job then Maybe Chip kelly goes back to his old
job At Ohio. State when we come, back we have
the most must win game of the. Weekend we also

Speaker 2 (31:40):
Com you start to look at the matchups this, week.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
It feels like there's so much attention ON o And
Mississippi state because Of Lane kiffin That Ohio state In
michigan is an Oh by the, Way Ohio state is
favored by ten At. Michigan now you start to look
at some of the other. Matchups Now old Miss this
is favored by seven At Mississippi. State oregon In washington

(32:05):
is sneaky for me because it's At. Washington oregon just
had the big win AGAINST. Usc they're favored by six
and a HALF UCLA. USC ucla is getting twenty two
and a. HALF i did ask about who's going to
get THAT ucla, job and one of my sources said
it will be a coach who has been a head,

(32:27):
coach AND i, said, okay it's not going to be
an assistant. Coach they're not going to do A Deshaun
foster hiring. Again BUT usc is giving twenty two and a.
HALF i don't think there's anything else big game, wise.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
At least COLLEGE.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Nfl you certainly have The packers and The, allions and
that could be which one of you is a real.
Contender The chiefs and The cowboys is obviously. Great The
bengals and The. Ravens The bengals are getting, seven But
bengals got The ravens twice here in the next few.

Speaker 2 (33:08):

Mills Davis mills in, there but they're getting four and
a half at The.

Colts The.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
Browns The browns are only five and a half point
underdogs at home against the forty Nine ers and Shudeor
sanders another week, now he's playing at. Home trying to
think if there's anything else that really stands out. Here
The bills at The. Steelers The bills are favored by
three and a half At. Pittsburgh i'm Guessing rogers is

(33:47):
going to. Play The broncos are favored by six and
a half at The. Commanders that'll Be sunday. Night but
you start to look at some of these, games The,
vikings they're ten and a half point underdogs at This,
Ehawks jags and The, titans like this might be one
of those games The jags lose against The titans at The,

(34:07):
titans because there's always going to be one or two
of those games with a team where you, GO i
can't believe they did, that whether it's good or. Bad
that might be one of those games with The titans
against The jags rams minus ten against The. Panthers panthers
are six and. Six that's you, know they've overachieved this
year and maybe they're a year ahead of. Schedule. There

(34:30):

Speaker 12 (36:51):
Procedure he's having like AN mri on certain parts of
the body where he has to do a bunch of
prep night. Before he can only be on a liquid diet.
Tomorrow so he's wondering does he go to The thanksgiving
