Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Something we've learned over the years about this show is
we're not grief counselors. We're not qualified to talk about
most of the big picture stuff that happens in the world.
But it affects us just like it affects you nine
to eleven, it being the anniversary of it, the terrible,
horrible stuff that happened in Utah yesterday. Yeah, it affects us.
To what we found about our show is people look

(00:36):
to it as somewhat of an escape. So even in
times of crisis that extend well beyond college football and
make college football pale in comparison, what we've always sought
to do here is do as normal a show as possible,
so that you can provide thirty minutes to an hour
of normalcy even in a sea of uncertainty. So to

(00:56):
be respectful of what's been going on around us this week.
That's what we're going to do tonight. We're jam packed.
We're high at top a very rainy all of a
sudden downtown Nashville, Tennessee. On this Thursday, September eleventh, the
over Our Lord twenty twenty five, the desk was stuck.
We had a big Saturday ahead we're going to be
a Knoxville Saturday. The Fallon Light Tour will be on
the road for Georgia, Tennessee. But we also got upset alerts.

(01:18):
Thursday is upset alert Night on our show, and we
have to discuss the potential, the possibility that some really,
really shocking things could happen. And there are a couple
of teams on the road. One of them's ranked, one
of them is ranked in the Commissioner's poll which will
unveil later tonight, and no one's talking about these games
except for us, because that is our duty. As I said,
the Commissioner's pole drops tonight. We were going to do

(01:40):
it one time. It was going to be a one off,
and then the public said no, no, no, we want it.
We want it. We're doing it. I'm giving you my rankings.
Every Thursday night. We'll have Cole Kublick on the show,
all but confirmed, and we got a lot to talk about.
He's going to be in the cockpit Saturday night, you know,
cublic in the cockpit, which, of course, in layman's terms,
means well, Kublick's going to be on the call as

(02:01):
Vanderbilt takes on South Carolina in Williamsbrice Stadium, So we'll
discuss that with him, amongst several other things. Fort Worth, Texas,
tuned in, Saint Augustine, Florida, Beaverton, Oregon, Lowell, Massachusetts. You
know it's going to be a big weekend. We got
Friday Night lines coming up. We got a game in Knoxville.
Will be on the sidelines for that. I will be
giving you all kinds of behind the scenes odds and

(02:23):
ends in the Instagram story at Josh Pate CFB. I
tell you every week in the fall, if you're not
following on Instagram, you're not completing the entire Pate State
experience here because there's so much that we give you
there that we don't really have time to give you
anywhere else. So follow, follow, Follow you don't. You don't

(02:44):
even need to pay a dime, Just follow, All right,
let's go upset alert concern meter. I've got mild to
moderate to in some cases severe concern for some of
you this weekend and in this segment, because some people
got confused last week in the comment section because they
didn't listen. What we're doing is we're pointing out some
fairly big point spreads like Wisconsin Alabama. I'm gonna start

(03:05):
with that, and I'm not telling you whether I think
the upset is just gonna happen. I'm giving you my
concern level for the favorite. I e Alabama's favored by
twenty and a half against Wisconsin. Wisconsin has announced they're
starting Danny O'Neil at quarterback. That's the backup there. He
has started. He has starting experience. He started eleven games
for San Diego State last year. I do not look

(03:27):
at this as a big time upset alert game for Alabama.
I'm putting a three and a half on it on
the upset alert concern meter, which sucks because I know
all the creative media departments for the underdogs, they just
scour this segment and they look for sound bites. I
know that'll be played for Wisconsin whatever. I think it's
an indicator game for Alabama. That's what I think, because

(03:50):
I think the big games coming up in a couple
of weeks against Georgia, this game right here, they could
win thirty eight to three, or they could win twenty
three to eleven, and it may make me feel two
totally different ways. It's the indicators even maybe in a
win against Wisconsin. Do we see indications of things to

(04:11):
come against a Georgia, against a Missouri, against the Tennessee,
against LSU, et cetera. I just totally forget Alabama even
plays Oklahoma this year and then they go to Auburn.
So it's pretty crazy stretch. I'm gonna put a three
and a half on it. I'm looking at the Alabama
offensive line specifically, because they are facing a pretty good
defense here. I'm looking at that because Florida State, their

(04:32):
speed and their athleticism and aggression made Alabama look pretty bad.
They got worked in Week one. Can't let that happen again.
How about this game happening in Oxford, Jesse. No one's
talked about it all week. Did you even know Arkansas
and Ole Miss were playing this weekend? Now? Maybe it
has something to do with the fact that there are
big headline games, so no one's paying attention to ole

(04:55):
Miss laying seven and a half at home against Arkansas.
Maybe it's the people that expect much from Arkansas in
the preseason. They haven't watched them play yet. You weren't
exactly locked into Arkansas versus Arkansas State in Little Rock.
Perhaps the last game ever at war Memorial Stadium for
Arkansas last week, So maybe you just haven't paid attention
to him. Maybe you remember last year Old Miss was

(05:16):
up twenty eight to three in this game twenty minutes
into it, and you're thinking rinse repeat. Well, I don't
feel that way, So I'm putting a seven on the
upset Alert meter because I think Arkansas has the better
quarterback situation, at least as it stands right now going
into this game. Now Ole Miss has the better roster situation,
or so I think, but we're still too early in

(05:37):
the season to know about the SEC and the way
I'm looking at it now in sort of a four
shelf grocery store point of view, is I am choosing
to believe there are no boxes on the top shelf
and there are no boxes on the bottom shelf. Yet.
What I mean by that is no team has truly
separated itself. That may happen, but it hasn't yet. So

(05:59):
you got a bunch of teams on tier two, shelf two,
and then on shelf three you also have a bunch
of teams. Your Vanderbilts are not your normal Vanderbilts, your
Kentucky's Mississippi States. Those teams aren't normal. Those teams are
supposed to be terrible. Those are supposed to be the
ones you look at and you just dial up the
W Maybe not, and Arkansas may be part of that

(06:22):
shelf three looking to climb to shelf two. That's why
we're gonna play the game Saturday. At the very least,
I expect a very, very competitive, fiery effort out of
Sam Pittman's guys. I'm putting a seven on the upset
alert concerns. Scout. Don't be mocking me, for Kentucky went
in there and beat them last year, So don't think
it can't happen. Next up USF at Miami. I don't

(06:45):
think this one's gonna happen. I didn't say can't. I
don't think it's gonna happen. We broke the game down
on Tuesday Night show. Miami's laying seventeen and a half
at home against South Florida. All the potential things that
could have caused the upset here are gone, namely USF
won last week, so you're not sneaking up on anybody.

(07:06):
So what we have is USF all the respect in
the world on this show. I'll show you how much
I respect them later by where I rank them. I
hope you're watching ap literally, I hope you're watching their
games before you vote on them. So USF they're in
a double doo down spot. Very very rarely do college
football teams play at an a level a third week
in a row. Most of them don't play at two

(07:26):
weeks in a row. That's the nature of college football players.
USF Boise win at Florida. When you're gonna go at Miami,
the best out of all those teams so far, and
think about the level you have to play at. With
Miami being fully aware of you and fully prepared for you,
you're gonna force a bunch of turnovers. I don't know
that you're doing that with Carson Beck. I think Carson
Beck will take exactly what you give him. I think

(07:48):
they've got a fairly significant line of scrimmage advantage both ways.
That's not a shock. Alex goal. Is the one reason
why I still make this a four and a half
on the upset Alert concern scale is this is not
new for them, not even this year. USF has modeled
themselves as an organization that can get these kind of

(08:08):
games to the fourth quarter. The reason why I am
hesitant to circle this thing as a big upset alert
concern meter game is because everyone's aware of that now,
and I think, just athletically and situationally, it doesn't set
up well for USF. I could be wrong. People are
tired of me saying that I'm not wrong. I don't
think USF's got much of a shot here. They clipped it,

(08:29):
though I know they did. Do you have any idea
what USC is doing this weekend? Not playing defense? Y'all
need to calm down on that. They're okay defensively, maybe
still maybe still some things to iron out and prove,
but so far, so good. USC, to answer my question,
is traveling to Purdue. Where else would you rather be

(08:52):
on Saturday than Los Angeles, California. Well, I'll tell you
wes Lafayette, Indiana. That's where you'd rather be. Well, that's
where you're gonna be. And Barry Odom's got eighty plus
new players there at Perdue. No one knows what to expect.
No one has a clue. They've looked okay defensively so
far this year. Now they welcome in USC minus twenty
one and a half. What's the upset alert concern meter here? Five?

(09:12):
And I'll tell you why, because I don't think anyone's
really nailed how to travel west to east except for Oregon.
USC struggled with this last year. It's a competitive character
test game for USC. They are a much better team
than Purdue, remember last year, and it's just ironic that
Purdue was the team that Oregon played, But Oregon played

(09:33):
Ohio State Classic game. Then they go on the road
the very next week, and that should have been a
letdown spot. Didn't matter how good Purdue was, should have
been a letdown spot. And Oregon went in there and
just trashed them. I think they pitched a shutout and
I thought that was a very, very big competitive character
reveal for the Oregon program. Well, this is a competitive

(09:53):
character game for USC because there's no matchup. I'm going
to waste your time pointing out that gives Perdue Do
a huge advantage over USC. That's not there. What would
have to happen here is USC goes in there and
looks lethargic and they sleep walk and everyone's talking about
the Illinois game coming up. By the way, this could
buye them against Michigan State next week too. Everyone's talking

(10:14):
about the Illinois game, or the Michigan game, or the
Notre Dame games like a month, month and a half away. No,
you need to be focused on the Purdue game. You
have not earned benefit of the doubt yet. I may
be higher on you than the ap pole is, but
not that much higher. So I'm gonna put a five
on it only because they haven't proven to me that
they have the competitive maturity to just go handle business.

(10:35):
Maybe that changes here. Vanderbilt at South Carolina. I think
I've been told during Monday Night football this week. I
don't know if this is true. Someone needs to fact
check this. I was told during a big football game,
big NFL game last week. I was just steadily tweeting
about Vandy South Carolina. Maybe I was. It does sound

(10:57):
like me, I just don't remember doing it. South Carolina's
favored by four and a half against Vandy. That's with
home field. You got to figure home field worth at
least three cockpit on a Saturday night, one point five
points of implied separation on a neutral field between these teams.
You think, so diego Pavia behind a very big Vanderbilt

(11:21):
offensive line, I'm going to talk about that a little
bit later with Kublick. I just don't know that South
Carolina is doing enough offensively to warrant me trust in them.
It's Leonora Sellers. And then look that wide receiver production.
You guys promised me. That hasn't shown itself yet. Offensive
line has been nothing to write home about so far.

(11:41):
This is a big moment for Vanderbilt's offense in general.
They really turned it on against Virginia Tech last week.
They outgained them by three hondo in the second half.
And even though it's week three, think about how weird
this is. Both of these teams have a common opponent
already in Virginia Tech. Vandy thoroughly played Virginia Tech in
their own buildings. South Carolina needed special teams magic to

(12:04):
beat them down in Atlanta to pull away from them.
Now that counts. That is a true one third phase
of the game. It's just from a predictive standpoint, Can
I count on it showing up again Saturday night? Maybe
I can. Maybe that's what brings a win home for
South Carolina. But I'm worried about it. I'm putting a
ten on it. I'm worried about it. Some would go

(12:26):
as far as to say, I'm predicting Vandy to win
the game outright, and I am. I am predicting Vandy
to win the game outright, not a ton of conviction.
I'm not betting it, but I am worried about it.
For South Carolina. Next up, Now, this one's egregious. This
one's egregious. You're gonna think it's a typo. You're gonna
think Bradley has screwed up there. It is. Okay, look

(12:47):
at the screen if you're listening on podcasts, what Bradley
has just done is he has wiped to a lower
third that features the Oklahoma Sooners logo and the Temple
Owls logoo. What is this? You might ask? A college
football game that's happening this Saturday. And then the follow
up question is, okay, yeah, maybe they scheduled it. Everyone

(13:09):
schedules these sorts of games. But why does it say
Oklahoma at Temple. Surely that's a typo, right Bradley. Bradley says, no,
it is not. Oklahoma is going on the road to Temple.
So we watch, we watch big time NFL games happen

(13:30):
in Lincoln Financial Field all the time. We're gonna watch
John Mattier in Lincoln Financial Field. Now maybe we'll say
that for years to come. I don't know where he's
gonna get drafted. I just never really thought that I
would see him or them play in this venue in college.
But here we are. They're favored by twenty one and
a half. It's a very weird travel spot. Obviously, there
is some Ou grad that lives in Westchester up there

(13:53):
that never thought his team would come to him. He'd
always have to go to his team. And now here
we are, drive down to the Link and taking an
Oklahoma football game. So you're coming off the Michigan game.
Letdown spot, You've got Auburn on deck look ahead spot,
which is the dreaded let down look ahead sandwich spot,

(14:14):
which sounds like nineteen ninety six handicapping in the betting world.
It still rings true. I think that's why this number
is only twenty one and a half. Though Temple did
run for three hundred last week, they put five sixty up.
I think against Howard. Yeah, you may not have met
him before, but he played Temple last week. Look, this
is a three and a half for me. It's all

(14:34):
about schedule dynamics. If Oklahoma's okay, there, they'll be okay.
But there's a reason. It's enough. We are proudly fueled
by Quick Trip. Do you know that we are proudly
gonna hop in our car after softball tomorrow night, weather permitting,
and we are going to motor our way on over

(14:54):
to Knoxville. And you may think to yourself, look at
all these other people taking private jets here and there,
us not us this week. We are driving and we
are fueling ourselves with Quick Trip gasoline, cold brew, raisinless
trail mix. Lately, I've been having to pick the raisins
out myself, but that's okay. I will roll up my
sleeves gladly for the cause. And we are going to

(15:17):
stand on the sideline at Nieland Stadium Saturday. What a blessing,
And we're gonna watch Georgia versus Tennessee. Now, we had
a little false fall situation down here in the South
where it was in the upper sixties to low seventies
for a week. I'm expecting mid eighties here. Okay, this
is John Waite, this is Tears for Fears, this is
mid eighties. It's back in our lap. Maybe a little
bit lower humidity, but hydrate people, hydrate. This is gonna

(15:42):
be a I think a classic. We broke the game
down earlier this week. If you want to see the breakdown,
it's on the channel. But Quick Trip making it all possible.
Just a fantastic partner. I cannot have been more happy
that we committed to Quick Trip a little over a
year and a half ago. It's been phenomenal. We're not
hitting the portal, I can tell you that tell you

(16:11):
what we will do though, what we will do on
this show. In fact, Bradley, here's a good endpoint for you.
I'm giving you my rankings every week. I'm giving you
my rankings every week. I did it last week. I
thought it was just going to be done in passing
and it was going to be like an example, and
then everyone said no, we kind of low key like
this more than the JP pole slander, by the way.

(16:33):
But nevertheless, since you asked for it, I will give
it to you. Will I will deliver my rankings. These
are rankings. These are not power ratings. This is not
neutral field, this is not who would be favored. This
is exactly what the AP claims they do. But they
lie to you every week about it. This is exactly
what the Playoff Committee is supposed to do, but they
change their criteria depending on who they actually want to

(16:54):
put in. No, the Commissioner's poll right here, it's fresh
off the press is the vapor is still lukewarm. I'm
telling you where teams should be ranked based on body
of work. I explained to you last week. The way
I look at rankings is it should just be that
body of work. Now, in week one, I'm not going
to fly off the handle. So in week one, I'm
like ninety percent your resume, which is one game so far,

(17:18):
ten percent what I thought of you in the preseason.
By week two, I shave it down to five percent
of what I thought of you in the preseason and
ninety five percent your resume. So let's just randomly start
picking teams out of the grab bag. Here Bradley Oklahoma.
We didn't have Oklahoma rank last week, and I said,
don't worry, you're playing Michigan this week. Come through and

(17:39):
you'll vault up there. Because I don't care. I'll move
team's thirty spots. We kind of did here, Oklahoma's tenth.
We went from having them not ranked to tenth. The
AP has them thirteenth. I mean, Oklahoma, the body of
work now is the got the Illinois State win and
that was a tune up for the Michigan win. They
win by double digits, and they won despite special teams

(18:00):
issues losing the turnover battle, so it could even get
better and better for Oklahoma. Georgia Tech. The AP has
them not ranked, which is pathetic. We've got Georgia Tech
at twentieth. They are hosting Clemson this Saturday. Personally, I
think what the AP folks do if they bother to
watch the games, is they predict with their rankings. They say, well,

(18:22):
I don't think Georgia Tech's going to be Clemson Saturday,
so I'll go ahead and rank them where they would
be if they lost the game. Well, how about ranked
them based on body of work and stop worrying about
predicting games? An idea the Commissioner's poll could never be
the Commissioner's Poll. Florida State has vaulted into our top five.
Florida State is number four now. Florida State beat Alabama.

(18:43):
Then they just smoked East Texas A and M last week,
and you may think to yourself, there were seventh last week.
Why did they bump up? Well, they did exactly what
they were supposed to do emphatically. And also there's a
lot to be gained from just doing what you're supposed
to do. Because I'll tell you I put Florida State
this week above a couple of teams, and I'm gonna

(19:03):
show you them in a little while that will the
AP will clearly have them ranked above Florida State. But
you know what, they hadn't done as much, so Florida
State belongs up here. To me. AP's got him tenth again, pathetic.
USF has gone from being twenty fifth last week for
US and then they went and beat Florida. I've got
him at fifth right now. You know why because I'm

(19:23):
judging them based off resume. Only about five percent of
my preseason idea about USF is still baked into my ranking.
That's what keeps them from being number one. By the way,
So I've got him at number five. The AP has
him eighteenth. I am convinced you're gonna need a third
straight ranked win to crack the AP top fifteen. Why

(19:46):
because they hate you. That's why I don't The Commissioner's
Poll led by the future Commissioner himself. G five Josh
sitting right here in the flesh. This is him. You
get it done. You give me the resume. I don't
care what the logo. You belong in this poll. USF
number five. Ohio State not much changed. They were number one,
they are number one. Iowa State got a big win

(20:09):
over Iowa. We bumped them up from fourteenth to eleventh.
AP has him fourteen. Not much different there. What about
Mississippi State? The AP doesn't dare to rank Mississippi State?
Why well, because I had them like sixtieth in the preseason. Cool,
where'd you have Arizona State top fifteen? Till I'm at
Arizona State team that just lost to Mississippi State. Give
me Mississippi State at twenty five? I think they belong there.

(20:31):
South Carolina also I skipped over, Sorry about that. Bradley.
I got him at seventeen. AP's got him at eleven,
little bit lower, A little bit lower on South Carolina
than the AP right now. I just they haven't lit
the world on fire. I'm judging them based off resume.
You don't just automatically hold on to your spot because

(20:52):
you go win. No you drug your feet against inferior competition,
so you got docked a little bit. As I just said,
Mississippi State's twenty five, Miami is third. I have not
moved them at all. The AP's got them at fifth.
Notre Dame dropped from ninth to fifteenth, despite the fact
that they didn't play a game. All right, so here's
what happened. It's not my fault they didn't play. It's

(21:15):
not their fault they didn't play. But other teams did play,
and so some teams just got bumped up ahead of them.
But also I am looking around and I'm asking myself,
all right, if other teams played early in the season,
Notre Dame had a bye week, are you punishing them
when you knock them down. No, you're not punishing anyone.

(21:36):
You're just acknowledging. They have a resume that has one
result on it, and it's a loss. And some of
these other teams have two wins, some of them are
very impressive wins, and Notre Dame's got their shot. If
they beat A and M this week, especially convincingly, they
could be in that number two spot for all we know.
Let's put USC at twenty one up from twenty three.

(21:57):
The AP still does not have them ranked Again. I'm
gonna ask, because you know it's gonna happen. If USC
gets a big, emphatic win here in the coming weeks,
the AP is gonna fly past us, and they may
even overrate USC. Right now, I think they're underrated. Georgia
dropped from fifth to seventh. They looked like garbage against

(22:18):
Austin p So you may say, oh, that was just
a letdown spot or a look ahead spot, Josh all
the weather delay. Oh there'll be a different team against Tennessee.
Maybe they will. I'm not predicting anything with this. I'm
judging you off your body of work. So I got
Georgia at seventh, Utah virtually unchanged. We've got them at nine.
The AP's got them at twenty. Again, there are chunks

(22:39):
of the AP voter roll that have not watched a
down of Utah so far this year. You know who
you are, Oregon number two team in the country. Not
so ironically, the AP pole has Oregon at four, so
fairly similar. The JP pole has Ohio State Oregon one
to two, and the Commissioner's pole, even though they're two

(23:00):
different things. One's a power rating, one's a ranking. In
this case, we align Texas dropped them to fourteen. Still
not all that impressed. They've lost one game. They've just
kind of I don't know if I would call that
a rock fire, This kind of lethargically rolled their way
to another win offensively. I'm I'm still waiting on it.

(23:22):
So Texas is fourteen right now, Illinois at twelve. Not
much changed there, Texas A and M eighteenth. That makes
a lot of sense. Penn State dropped to six. Penn
State struggled a little bit last week again, Is that punishment? No,
it's acknowledging that you've played nobody so far, and so

(23:42):
it's hard to boost your resume like maybe an Ohio
State has. If you've played nobody, do what Oregon did,
completely obliterate a team, just splatter someone. Penn State didn't
really do that last week, So they're sixth. LSU went
to number eight. I had a lot of concern about
LSU last week, could be a letdown look ahead spot.
If that's the case, it's irrelevant because they'll beat Florida

(24:05):
handedly and probably pop right back up in the top five.
This week. We've got Auburn ranked. This was the biggest
point of contention last week by my own stated criteria.
People said, well, why don't you have Auburn ranked? We
had him twenty six. I've bumped him up to twenty two.
The AP's got him at twenty fourth. Big game come
in in a couple of weeks at Oklahoma. Don't overlook

(24:28):
South Alabama this week, Ole miss is sixteen, kind of
right in line with what the AP has. I am
going to rank Missouri nineteenth. That was a good, good,
good win against Kansas last week. The AP's got him
twenty fifth. Vanderbilt I'm ranking twenty third. Why wouldn't I?
If you want to tell me South Carolina is still ranked,

(24:49):
which the AP does. The AP's got South Carolina eleven.
You know, good and well. The only quality opponent either
of them is played is Virginia Tech. Vandy had a
much more impress win against Virginia Tech then South Carolina.
That's all the resumes have so far. Basically, why would
South Carolina be ranked that far ahead of Virginia or Vanderbilt.

(25:10):
The answer is preseason expectation. Now, I admit I've still
got five percent of my preseason expectation baked into this.
That's what keeps South Carolina ahead of Vandy the beauty
as they play Saturday, and I'm looking forward to that.
Tennessee thirteenth, No change there, Texas Tech twenty fourth, No
change there. That is, ladies and gentlemen, your commissioner's poll

(25:34):
for week three built by someone who has the audacity
and this is dangerous to actually watch the games and
vote accordingly. We got big games this weekend. I know
a lot of you are looking to get out there.
I know, well, I think I know a lot of
you are like me, and you don't buy tickets ahead

(25:57):
of time, and maybe you think the season ticket fees
or too much for you, because they probably are, and
so you choose to buy individual tickets off the secondary market. Well,
I know you have to do that. I would do
the same thing. So what I did was I went
to seat Geek when they called us and they wanted
to partner with us, and I said, well, you got
to get our folks at discount, and they said, okay,

(26:17):
what do you have in mind? Give them ten percent
off their order? Okay done. It was shockingly easy. So
if you're about to buy tickets for this weekend, or
any game upcoming. Do it their seat, geek, and when
you're in checkout, just use the code pay ten pate
one zero and I'm going to get you ten percent
off any order up to two hundred dollars. Any order

(26:38):
above two hundred is just going to be twenty dollars off.
So we're taking stuff that you're going to buy anyway,
and we're just making you pay less money for it.
We call that value a value proposition, if you will,
and we hope to fully fund it by what I
hold in my hand. Next, I'm adding better bets aboard

(27:01):
the Rama Noodle Express. Here. Got two added best bets tonight,
and I got something to tell you about the Rama
Noodle Express in just a second. Okay, the games were
already on. I hope you were watching too. I hope
you were watching. Sunday goes Georgia Tech plus six and
a half. That one moved. I can still get the
number for you, but it's gonna cost you more on
that in a second. So Georgia Tech plus six and

(27:22):
a half, Cal plus two and a half, Oregon State
plus twenty two and a half, two Lane plus one
and a half. Those are the games that I've already
given out on shows earlier this week. The games we're
adding right now Western Michigan plus twenty seven and a
half at Illinois and Jacksonville State second time, we're on
them already plus three and a half at Georgia Southern.

(27:45):
Now here's what you need to know. FanDuel's the exclusive
odds provider of the show. Okay, you can as of today,
right Jesse, as of today, as of this afternoon, it's live.
You can go to FanDuel. Go to the College Football Sect.
We have our own tab there there you see it. Literally,
it's my name. You've got playoff odds, conference winners, win totals.

(28:08):
Josh Pate. What is that betting on what he's gonna wear? No, No,
it's like white T shirt minus fifty million odds every week. No,
that's where the ram Noudle Express picks are. Now here's
what you need to know. For instance, with Georgia Tech,
I handed out Georgia Tech plus six and a half
and that thing dropped like a rock. You can still
go bet Georgia Tech plus six and a half. You'll

(28:29):
have to lay one seventy juice on it. Okay, So
technically the numbers are still going to be available, but
it still greatly behooves you to get down on the
games as soon as I hand them out. A lot
of times we move these numbers, and so a lot
of times it's gonna be really hard for you to
get the value. However, sometimes, like with this Oregon State game,

(28:51):
I hand out a number, market moves the other way.
So right now Oregon State plus twenty two and a half,
you can actually get it at around plus one hundred juice.
So I think what I saw a little while ago.
I think the real numbers twenty three and a half
right now in the odds market. So sometimes you get
more value by waiting and looking at the tab. A
lot of times you need to have already been on

(29:11):
those games. But we got our own tab now, all right,
what do you know? FanDuel has opened a tab for us.
And speaking of which, all right, I want to talk
to you before I bring Cublic on. This is important.
I do this about once a month or so, especially
during the season. I told FanDuel when we first started meeting,
I said, this is kind of a non negotiable. You

(29:33):
gotta let me do this, and they said, not only
will we let you do it. We want you to
do it, and that is to remind you about responsible gaming,
not by reading a bunch of random ad copy. I
am telling you that if done properly, this can be
very entertaining betting on sports. If done wrong, it can
destroy your life. And so you need to be very

(29:56):
careful and very aware. And what I loved about the
life outer part of last season with FanDuel is they
started to hit us up and say, hey, you need
to push these new tools we have. There's the myspind tool,
which is basically like tracking your bank account and it
lets you know trends, it lets you know deposit spend.
But there is a deposit limit that you can put

(30:17):
on yourself. There's a lost limit. I heavily highly advise
you guys use these. There's a wager limit, there's a
time limit, timeouts, self exclusions, just building in a lot
of fail safes. Again, you should have a budget for
this stuff. No different than ordering too much pizza per week.

(30:37):
You got to know when to cut it off. You
need to know when to cut this off. And it
is very good that they've baked these m Don't do
this stuff irresponsibly, please don't do that. Some of you
have been there, others of you have buddies who have
been there. Do not do that irresponsibly. And if you
have any doubts about whether you can afford to be
betting on this, you can't. So just back away this

(30:59):
weekend and enjoy the games. Consequence.

Who would ever label what we're about to do as

weather permitting, and today the weather has permitted. So without
further ado, I bring you our exclusive sit down with
friend of the program Cole Kubrick, Cole Jeremetrius Kublick joining

(32:10):
us right now on the what not, on the heels,
on the precipice of you headed to Columbia, South Carolina
where you will be you are, first off, are you
sideline or are you booth for this game?

Speaker 3 (32:22):
Well, sideline as of now, unless we have dual radio
failure in an airplane which would prevent Jordan Rodgers from
getting there, then I would go to the booth again.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
Yes, so fifty to fifty all right, Diego Pavia. This
is how I've heard the matchup presented, and I don't
know if you're aware of this. It is one on eleven.
It is Diego Pavia versus South Carolina. Obviously there's a
little bit more to it than this. I've heard some
radio chatter out of Birmingham all week, namely by you
McElroy has assisted somewhat. And what you've talked about is

(32:53):
not Diego Pavia, not because you're overlooking him, but because
I think you understand most people know about him. He's
a he's a known commodity. But you've talked about something
that I have not heard anyone in my lifetime talk about.
That is the size and overall increased athletic profile of
the Vanderbilt offensive line. What world are we living?

Speaker 3 (33:14):
Yes, they win and got some guys that remind you
of just club bouncers. They will toss you out of
there in a hurry. Now, I'm not going to sit
here and pretend like the technique, the fundamentals, the footwork,
the hand placement is pretty or coach clinic tape worthy.
But they're big. They look like traditional SEC offensive linemen.

(33:34):
They're physical as far as how they get after you
and the things that they want to do to you
after the ball snapped, And it's a little bit of
a different tone. I haven't seen a Vanderbilt offensive line
be able to do some of the things that this
group does now. Technically, fundamentally, I have seen better in
the past, but it's pretty apparent that what Clarkle wanted
to do was go out and get a couple of
guys that could just push you around, had some meat,
had some nasty to them. I think it gives them

(33:56):
a little bit of a different edge. The North South
run game I think has developed fast this year than
maybe it did to go. It's not as reliant on
getting people to go a different direction or read a
different key. They can just come at you sometimes. So
that aspect of this with a new or new ish
South Carolina defensive line should be interesting.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
Now. When I was doing your show this morning, because yeah,
that is something we put people through. I do yours
in the morning, you do mine at night, we had
this way. We had this cliffhanger moment, you know, after
I had done a whole two segments with you, we
still didn't have time to get it all in, and
you said, hey, quickly here you know, cause in radio
land you actually have what we call hard outs. Here,
we just do a telethon all night if we want to.

(34:35):
You said, give me a brief something on Vandy South Carolina,
then I'll come on your show tonight. I hadn't even
invited you yet. Then I'll come on your show tonight,
and I'll tell you what I think. The big key
of this game is, so everyone's waited all day. They
sat at their desk nervously waiting for five o'clock so
they could drive home so they could hear you present
this hidden key that's going to unlock the vision of

(34:57):
how Vanderbilt South Carolina will play out the floor as
yours go ahead.

Speaker 3 (35:02):
Yeah, first off, no one's waited for that because they
didn't care what I think and what I say. But
I'm gonna give it to you anyway. I think there
are a lot of things that people will look at.
We mentioned that new Vanderbilt offensive line Dylan Stewart, Brian Thomas,
that South Carolina defensive line, the veterans secondary that South
Carolina brings to the table, a couple of new players
defensively for Vanderbilt that like to attack, come to the

(35:22):
line of scrimmage. How are they going to play some
of the red game, Lenora Sellers, Nick Harber, We got
a lot of different directions. I'm gonna tell you what's
gonna decide this game, jocks. Right now, there will be
three to five what the f plays from Diego Pavia
in this game? Now? That could be what the f
he scored or what the f they got the ball

(35:44):
they're going to score. Because Diego Pavia through two games
this year, has still proven that those plays are inside
of him. Now. I believe that his brain tells him
I can make these plays. That's why I'm going to
attempt this. When a defender's trying to tackle me and
I literally look backwards and pitch the ball over my shoulder,
We'll see if that works, and then his player either

(36:04):
catch it it or does it. He fade away off
the back foot, throwing the ball fifty yards down the
field double coverage thinks he's gonna complete that against Alabama
that was a touchdown against Virginia Tech should have been
an interception penalty negated. That those are the plays he's
running out trying to block somebody on the option. I'd
love to see it, but there are certain ways that
he manages and handles the ball sometimes that the only

(36:26):
way to truly react to him is what in the
exploit if are you doing? And then it's usually no no, no,
no yes or no no no no hail to the note.
So I think there'll be three to five of those,
and if they go Vanderbilt's way, they win the game.
If they don't and they go South Carolina's game and
it gives them a short field or it gives them points,
South Carolina will win that football game.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
You're gonna use that kind of language on air. If
you're using it here, using it on this show, you're
just gonna drop it there on the sideline Saturday. So
this was the Internet, No it is. Yeah, I just
got to snap my fingers. We'll put a TVMA up there.
We're fine. By the way, if I was Clark, I
would take credit. I would just say that's our offense.
You guys don't think that's designed. It looks improv That's

(37:09):
the beauty of the play design. Speaking of which, last
week USF beats Florida, we will slowly transition to Florida, LSU.
Did you happen to watch Golish's postgame news conference, which
was almost entirely zoom based, and somebody asked him about
the play where they just they heave it up. I

(37:29):
think Florida's safety pulled up because he got there so early.
He's terrified that he's about to decapitate a guy. Because
of the new rules discouraging that sort of thing where
we as a society and ball's call, they move it
down inside the twenty, it ends up setting up for
a game winning field goal. And someone asks him, I
mean it's like a two and a half minute question,
and he did. Dudes just teeing him up to brag

(37:49):
about their offensive system. What did you see? What kind
of checks were made for the line of scrimmag Golishman. Yeah,
we drew him off sides. We just throw it up.
I mean, we just coach him to throw it up.
He had a shot, He had a shot. He could
have flexed, and half the folks wouldn't have been known
the difference. Shame on him in this case for telling
the truth. You don't always have to tell the truth.
Meanma taught me that all the time. If someone stupid

(38:11):
enough to think you're smart, do not correct them.

Speaker 3 (38:14):
Oh okay, but it is smart because you have that
in your back pocket of why a team shouldn't jump
off side. So it is planned to sit there and say,
don't move. The sinner's the only one that can move
on the play. If you see that defender off side,
you snap the ball. Some teams will just spike it
or throw it out of bounce. But what we used
to do is we would have one route and the

(38:35):
receiver would just go and you throw it up because
what's the worst that can happen to The guy picks
it off and then the penalty degates it and you
take your five yards so you hope that you can
go up and grab one. Then you decline the penalty
like you're talking about with South Florida, and I end
up being a touchdown field position whatever it is. So
it's still a smart play. It's just he didn't want
to take all the credit for how the play actually

(38:56):
turned out.

Speaker 1 (38:56):
So it's a funny, funny path those two teams from
that game to week. USF's going to go down to Miami.
Keep this lower third up because that's the game we're
going to talk about. But USF is going to go
down to Miami. They're like a seventeen and a half
point dog. Everyone's looking at that saying, wow, is that
too many points? And I actually don't think so. I
think Miami. You'll have a good day Saturday. This game
right here. You and I talked about it this morning.

(39:18):
We have spoken about it privately this week, which is
no one's business. But now we'll speak about it publicly
over a touchdown being given to a desperate Florida team.
Talent profile matches up, so recruiting classes and whatnot, the
athletes they have on the field roughly matches up. Up
until about five seconds ago, many people would have told
you maybe Florida's got the quarterback edge here up till

(39:40):
five minutes going, including now some people. I'll get your
take on this, but some people may say, you know,
if Florida should find a line of scrimmage advantage here,
Florida should be able to do some business on the
ground here. Maybe they limit LSU's ability to do that.
So all of that is potentially there. I made a
big deal the other night about potential versus production and
the latter which not being there for Florida right now,

(40:02):
and too often times under Abilly it hadn't been there.
How do you feel this game going.

Speaker 3 (40:08):
It's like a chemmetry teacher with your potential production ladder
this that line of scrimmage. I don't think that there
will be a way for Florida to have a massive advantage. Now.
Caleb Banks coming back could be huge. I think the
bigger question for me here, Josh, where does LSU want
this game to go?

Speaker 1 (40:26):
Like?

Speaker 3 (40:26):
What style game do they want? Probably some sort of
attract me, I would assume, because you probably would think
if things are slowing down and you're only going to
get so many possessions, you don't fully trust your offensive line,
your center's probably out of this game. And if you
have to play from behind, then that means Caleb Banks

(40:47):
and Service and company are going to be able to
tee off and come after you. You probably don't want
to be there. You would rather have your extension of
the run game with short, quick passes. And thus Myers
sort of managed that get some explosives at some point,
allow your defense to play super aggressive, whereas if they
did give up a long play, it's not going to
matter that much. But that aggressiveness that they play with
is when they play best and how they play best.

(41:09):
So let them go do that. And if your billy,
I think you want to slow this game down, and
I think you want to say, yeah, we want to
try to make you play from behind. We want to
put pressure on you by knowing that your possessions are
going to be limited, and then maybe you try to
do something that you're not capable of. LSU will handle
the lack of a running game themselves. They won't hand
the football off enough. I mean, that's just that's who

(41:29):
they are too. They've been for the last couple of years.
I don't feel like that's going to change this year.
But I do like the fact that Florida lives in
the neighborhood of the outside z own play stretch plays
their bread and butter, and then they can do that
with twelve personnel with two tight ends. That widens the surface.
So you take all the aggressive scud missiles on that
LSU defense and you at least remove them another gap

(41:50):
from the football. And by the way, that play can
go all the way outside that front side tight end,
it can hit all the way backside behind the backside
tight end, so you still have to manage everything between.
Then you build your play actions, your bootlegs, you have splitters,
you have jet motion guys, so you use the misdirection
to try to just slow those guys down. Perkins the
Weeks brothers of just not teeing off on your snapcount

(42:12):
on every play. Those are big advantages against the defense
that lives in a tack mo twenty four to seven,
and LSU does that. I mean, let's be real here,
Like LSU, there are a bunch of trained assassins on defense.
Like jack Byburn was probably the best fit as far
as a pickup of any team in college football this year,
because all he wants to do is trade paint and

(42:33):
dent face masks. That's all he cares about doing. And
if that means he's not going to touch the quarterback,
but he gets to go knock a guard down and
that opens up for a loot man. I mean, he's
been responsible for both corner crashes that have hit this
year by removing other blockers from where that corner was
going to come from and try to get to the quarterback.
So you can negate a lot of that by just
where they live and how they operate. So I'm really

(42:54):
interested to see if Florida does play super slow, if
they can get some of that run game on, because
Jaden ball is super close last week, and I just
don't think the film was as bad as people are saying.
I understand the loss is bad. That can't happen, it's unacceptable,
but when you just watch it play after play after play,
you don't walk away from it, saying goodness, Florida is

(43:16):
a gross football team, like they're incapable that they just
have no idea what they're doing. They have guys that
don't want to be out there. That wasn't it. I mean,
you still have guys that were playing hard. You missed
a couple opportunities, and you made some massive mistakes that
were essentially behavioral mistakes, fundamental mistakes. It shouldn't take place,
and it cost you the game. So I'm really interested
to see sort of where that part of this game goes,

(43:38):
because LSU probably trust their secondary now too, so they'll
bring extra men down to the box. Excuse me to
try to take that away. So I can't wait to
see the temple of this game because I think that
probably decides it, because one side is gonna be good
at that.

Speaker 1 (43:53):
On the other side, did you find yourself watching, yeah,
Notre Dame Miami and what happened to Notre Dame's offensive
line kind of using that to look ahead to the
A and M game? Did you find yourself watching that
on the rewatch saying you know, yet, on one hand,
this is not a great look for Notre Dame's offensive
line however, number four there from Miami. I'm not sure

(44:16):
there are many more of him across the country. I'm
not sure there are many more of him across Notre
dame schedule the rest of the year, because like Notre
Dame's offensive line, people just look at a statistic. They
look at a stat line, they look at a pressure rate.
You love the PFF numbers. I know you live in
that world. Yes, they look at all that and they say, oh,
Notre Dame's offensive line is terrible or was terrible this night.

(44:38):
So first thing I want you to do, take me
a little more in the weeds on what you saw
in that game. Secondly, do you look at it kind
of like you were talking about with Florida saying, you know,
the rewatch here is not nearly as bad or doom
and gloom as the nation is making it out to be.
There's one player here, or there's one correctle two correctible
things there. Sometimes it's within your control. Sometimes that you

(44:58):
faced an alien that Saturday that you won't see again,
and as you move forward things should look a lot better.
Or have you just overrated some unit.

Speaker 3 (45:07):
No, and ruben Bain is one of those guys. I
mean he is alien. Like playing defense, there's not oftentimes
a lot you can do about it. I'm going to
use an example from my game last weekend, and I
think this is kind of applicable. It'll take people to
where you can get in a game or even in
a segment of the season as an offensive lineman. We
talked to Ryan Grubb last week and I asked him

(45:29):
about Cayden Proctor and he's an old offensive line coach,
or are there things that you guys are going back
with technically fundamentally trying to work with And he said, listen,
Cayden needs a fastball and a change up. He said,
I don't know why we're trying to go into this
thing with like a seven or eight or nine pitch
arsenal with how we're doing things. And what he was
saying was he's trying to come up with all these

(45:50):
creative sets and these one armed stabs and these different
quick sets and these deep sets, and what an offensive
lineman cannot do Josh is dictate to the defensive lineman
how to rush. That cannot happen. You want to try
to negate certain things that you think he's going to
do from taking place to maybe push him into his
weakness or give you some sort of an advantage. But

(46:12):
they're gonna key off your neck, your shoulder, your hip,
and your foot basically that play side or the backside
that's a little bit deeper. When you're in your stance,
you open those tips up, they're going upfield or they're
going right down the middle of you. You stay close tight,
you set flat, and probably maybe expect them to try
to beat you around the edge quickly, or they're gonna
give you a quick inside move. Is going to have

(46:33):
to happen fast, and that might be the only part
of it that you can dictate. But I think we
give them too much credit sometimes is to say we
can set this way that way, therefore he has to
do that. I don't think defensive lineman think it out
that much their reactionary. I think they have one or
two things they think they might want to do. Those
guys are playing one hundred miles an hour. They're playing
with their hair on fire, but don't sitting there thinking

(46:53):
about what attackle doing or how do I process this
process that? So then you start to think about, Okay,
well he got me around the corner, so I have
to get depth. Well, now you're retreating by nature, it's
once you have to do. You're going backwards. Well he
knows that, So what's the next thing he's gonna do.
He's gonna turn like he's going upfield and go right
down the middle of you, and you're probably gonna get
at least not back, if not knocked over. All right, Well,

(47:15):
now I have to set a little bit more stout,
which means I can't move latterly as quickly. So you
take a one to two more stout, set your firm
you're ready inside. Move, you can't recover fast enough and
get back inside you're smoked again. All of that gets
to creeping in your head. You start to think too
much instead of just taking your one or two natural sets,
being patient, allowing the defensive I Himan to do what

(47:38):
he thinks he's going to do, and then attack once
he gets to you. And one of the things I saw,
especially late in that Notre Dame Miami game, is you're
just thinking too much and you think you have to
try to attack or dictate what a defensive ARMB is
gonna do to you, and you can't do that. Now
you also had youth, you're also banged up in fall camp,
so some of those things play into it as well.

(47:58):
I bet Mike Denbrock go back and say, there's some
things we could have done earlier in the game to
begin to slow that down. Tight ends to that side,
chips to that side, maybe sprint outs away or to
that side, draws to that side, just to make them
aware that other things could possibly happen and you don't
get to just tee off on my tackle one on
one and go after my quarterback. So those are the

(48:19):
things that I would kind of look at. The things
that are scary are when one on one losses are
repeatedly happening to the same guy, and especially if they're
happening the same way, because not only now is that
in your mind, but that defender knows he's got you,
and he's gonna be able to continue to set you
up and continue to do different things, and your reaction
is probably not going to be enough because you're playing

(48:41):
on your heels and you're overthinking about where he's going
to go and where he might go instead of just
trusting your technique and fundamentals. So it's a lot more
of a mental game than people realize, and that's a
little bit of what I saw late in that game
against Miami with the Notre Dame tackles that you start
thinking about, I've got to make some sort of a
change in how I attack this. And he knows that's
coming and he's going to take advantage of it when

(49:02):
you do.

Speaker 1 (49:03):
You were talking about grub there. You had the Bama
game last week, right, did Yeah? All right, let's do
some journalism. Willy see At Jr. From Bama on Twitter
hit us in the middle of the game at SEC network.
Please never let Cole call in Alabama football game anymore.
He sounds like a bias partisan hack.

Speaker 3 (49:21):
Your reaction, he's got the hack part right. Yeah. If
I knew what partisan meant, I would say maybe, yes,
maybe no. I'm not going to I don't know words
that long.

Speaker 1 (49:32):
He responded. According to Willie, you're an Auburn guy. There's
no evidence of that. Did I see anywhere?

Speaker 3 (49:39):
Yeah? No, I mean where where? Where would the evidence
of that be? I mean where?

Speaker 1 (49:42):
How?

Speaker 3 (49:42):
How would you whenever imagine that or think that? Yeah,
am am, Auburn guy, have a degree, have diploma, has
a letter from when played on campus for said football team,
and if that's the way he wants to hear it.
Good for him. Just because he uses fancy words, does
it mean he knows what he's talking.

Speaker 1 (50:01):
What happened? Did you pump you ohm and row a
little bit? I mean they almost scored according to how
much bias hus just seventy three zero could become seventy three.

Speaker 3 (50:10):
I think it was the me proclaiming Parker Brelsford is
the best player on the team in the best center
in the nation. That just set him off. He could
handle it anymore, and he said, enough, get this pack
off my television.

Speaker 1 (50:20):
Don't like him, not even a homegrown kid.

Speaker 3 (50:22):
So I was told by that guy that tweeted in
that he hates bald people. So I don't even know
why you're reading his tweets.

Speaker 1 (50:27):
Now let's move on. It gets a little personal there,
all right. We got three or four minutes left. With
that three or four minutes, I want to ask you.
I've heard a lot of people, including me, talk about
Joey Agilar. Can he step up on the big stage
against Georgia diddo for Gunner Stockton first game on the road.
You got that wide receiver, cor can you take advantage
of it? Against perhaps a vulnerable Tennessee secondary. Then I

(50:47):
was driving into the office today and I was thinking
about talking to you after the Tennessee Syracuse game, and
I was thinking about how all these units in week one,
you probably texted me the most about the Tennessee offensive
line out of any unit that you watched. You're pretty
impressed with him. And I thought to myself self, Josh
Haipel at his core, would run the ball five hundred
times a game if he could do. We know for

(51:10):
sure that Georgia's run defense is up to this task?
Do we know that because all this stuff we're gonna
find out Saturday. I haven't talked a lot about the
Georgia run defense because it's always just kind of there.
And I want to ask you, you think it's just
kind of there? Like do you think they're gonna have
to come off that and find something else here? Might
we find out Tennessee has a little bit more business

(51:31):
to be done in the run game than is previously
thought comes Saturday.

Speaker 3 (51:35):
Well, it's fair for us to have that trepidation because
of the schedule, but it's also fair for us to
think back the last I don't know, two five eight
years when We've had these similar feelings and then when
that defense has needed to show up, it showed up.
And it was that defense that we wondered if it
was just watching it. There are parts of it, Yeah,

(51:55):
absolutely that I look at. I mean, does Raylan Wilson
run like he needs to run and make contact the
way that you would like to see a Georgia linebacker
do it? Yes? Absolutely, you know, seeing a little bit
more of Alamodoze last week on the edge being it
provided some twitch. He's someone who could give you a
spar Do they attack pullers the way you want them to?
Of course, so as parts of it do look that way,
and we're always going to compare it to Jordan Davis

(52:17):
and those guys and just think that it should be
that way and it's probably never going to be that
way again. I give Josh Hypel credit for going into
the season the previous year, not this year, with that
physical mentality and trying to build something different within your team.
The entire offseason of we can be physical, we can
win games different ways. That was their entire offseason goal

(52:39):
and they did it. Go back and look at some
of the big games they've won recently. Bama last year Oklahoma.
Last year, it wasn't because they were throwing the football
over the place, because they were more physical and they
ran the ball and not just ran the ball because
they created this space. Now they'll take Kitselman and some
of these tight ends, they'll insert them. They'll Adams, extra blockers.
They have bigger offensive linemen that like to come off
the football that don't just treat it everything like they

(53:00):
need to get in your way and wall you off.
And I think part of that has been altering the
system with what plays they call more often into downhill nature.
So I'll be anxious to see it because what they're
gonna do is remove defenders from the box, and you're
gonna have to play with a little more even numbers,
maybe even down a number, because they spread you out
so far. Like Pete Goding used to tell me, I'm

(53:20):
not making that decision of playing a guy right in
the middle of it. He's like, forget that, man. We're
either gonna be in the box or we're gonna be
out of the box. We're gonna go play those receivers,
or we're gonna come in and we're gonna play the run.
I'm not having a guy be indecisive to where, oh,
he inches down and then he doesn't do either one
of them the way that we need him to do.
We're at least gonna be definitive. And the one thing
that that guy does, so pay attention to George's extra

(53:42):
defender is he in?

Speaker 1 (53:42):
Is he out?

Speaker 3 (53:43):
Because if he's playing in between, I think that's what
Josh and Joey Hawsley want. They want you to be
indecisive with that guy because they know he ultimately can't
be that effective. I'm really interested to see because I
think everybody looks at this game Josh and says, oh,
can the non existent downfield Georgia pass game find a
way against these Tennessee corners that I guess people feel

(54:04):
like I have never put shorter pads or a helmet on,
so therefore they can even locate a football or don't
know what a receiver is. I actually don't think that's
the matchup because I don't think Tim Banks is dumb,
and I think Tim Banks is gonna protect his corners,
and I think Tim Banks likes his defensive line enough
to say, don't have to go up there and do
all this crazy stuff with eight or nine defenders. Those
guys are pretty good on their own. I'm gonna take
care of the guys out wide and make sure that

(54:26):
they don't get smoked in this game. Then, with less
numbers up front, I don't think the traditional run game
from Georgia has been what it needs to be. The
perimeter runn game has been pretty good. I think it
comes down to Gunner Stockton and when he leaves the
pocket he tucks the ball down or a design run play,
or when he has a replay that he can pull
it and keep it and go. How does that operate?
Because you're also playing against maybe the fastest linebacker in

(54:48):
the SEC and Aaron Carter here. So I think Gunner
Stockton's legs are what's the difference in this game for Georgia,
whether or not they win or lose it.

Speaker 1 (54:57):
Not to make it all about us, but we got
past State on Rocky Top and afternoon and Cublic in
the cockpit. How rare do we get to say that
Saturday night in primetime under the lights, he will never
have looked better. I don't know if you'll sound better
than you ever have, but you could have a classic
on your hands. I wish you all the best.

Speaker 3 (55:16):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (55:18):
That's called Cublin and that's our show. We appreciate you
guys so much. Make sure you're following on the Instagram story.
It's going to be lit up Saturday, maybe even Friday night.
I'm told some recreational activity legal of course, is going
to take place Friday night, and then we'll head over
to Tennessee Saturday. I just tell you we have about
as good a time at Tennessee games as we have
anywhere at Josh Paate CFP. Make sure you're following there

(55:40):
and we'll be back here Sunday night to break it
all down. Every Saturday is a blessing. Make sure you
enjoy it for director Bradley, producer Jesse and Cole Cublic
and everyone else here. Take care. I'm Josh Pate. I'll
see you Sunday. God bless.
