what do you think of the pool that the Americans
got in the soccer?
Speaker 4 (02:21):
I think it's okay. I think it's about middle of
the pack. I don't think it's a group of death.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
But I don't which they survived the group of death
when they got that right, I don't hear.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
I don't think it's easy, but you know, they're just
they're they're seemingly coming together, I think, And you know,
to get to the knockout stage now, with the forty
eight teams in there, you only have to be one
of the good third place teams in your group, so
(02:51):
you should advance. That would be very disappointing if they
didn't advance. But I thought, you know, Uruguay's good squad.
They have a good history, have some good young talent,
but they don't have much experience. The soccer rus are,
you know, spicy and athletic usually, but they're not a
great soccer playing nation. And then it's a playoff team.
(03:14):
You don't really There's twenty two teams left and six
of them are going to make it, so it's hard
to figure out who that team will be. It is
possible that it would ranked team of the fourth. It
could be Turkey that wouldn't be good. It could be Italy,
but those teams should be beatable. For the United States,
I think the United States has enough talent around and
(03:34):
they have a good coach, so I would think that
you should have high hopes. When he first came aboard
and watched Tino's an outstanding coach. Has been done a
good shob wherever he's been pretty much, and it seems
like he's gotten his teeth into the job. At first
it looked bad, you know, but and also they're missing
some guys with injury who are very important. Anthony Robinson
(03:55):
as probably was the American Soccer Player of the Year
last year, and he hasn't played in months. Supposedly he'll
be ready for the World Cup. So uh, I thought
it was good. I mean, the presentation was ludicrous, but
actually there would have been the only one who wasn't
and it would have been a real improvement, is for sure.
I mean it took him like an hour and forty
(04:17):
five minutes to even start pulling balls. So you know,
I can't think of anything more entertaining than watching Donald
Trump pull balls.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Cow just keeps going mark a good carpal tunnel, just
pressing the mark button.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
Yeah. That that's to me.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
That thing was done for the people who were there,
which is a small percentage of the people that they
they care about this thing. But everyone almost everyone else
is watching on their laptop or they're on TV or something.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
You are just waiting for thee to tell us, tell
us what is going with what the groups are and
what they think. First, let's have another music like come
out and sing and let you do that for everything.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Now. Yeah, it's like they did it when they renounced
in the the and and they generally don't have anyone
involved with the with the broadcast that really has any
idea about soccer. Don't you remember the gal who when
when they now Atlanta, she goes the Midwest.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Oh, everything was so super exciting.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Pansas City, the West Coast.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
Shack renowned soccer expert Kevin Hart.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Aaron Judge.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
I'll watch Kevin Hart do anything.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
I agree.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
I think wat he's funny reading the poot Aaron Judge.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
I saw him up there at one point.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
I think he do believe he has some interest in soccer.
I've I've seen him interviewed about soccer before. You know,
you'd make a good keeper or something like that, which
we probably.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Would a little probably a little tough to get down
on the ground.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
Right, Well that's true seven, Yeah, but most good keepers
in the world tower.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Like six three or tall or taller really getting bigger.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I six seven is, but I'd
say it's very unusual for them to be under six three.
I'll say that.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Yeah, so, uh so you're predicting the World Cup finally
comes home.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
No, t I am not. Oh no, oh no no.
I think they have a chance to get to the
round of sixteen. Anything past that would be magical. I think.
You know, you're still talking about soccer playing nations where
eighty five percent of the good athletes in the in
(06:36):
the country want to play soccer, you know, unless they
get sized out of it kind of you know, and
have to go play basketball or whatever. So and it
also is a kind of thing where the gigantic pool
of athletes because you don't have to be big to
be a great soccer player, so.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
You actually need to not be big, right well, I mean, now,
if you want to try carrying two hundred and sixty
pounds for ten and a half miles of running, it's
not gonna work. Now, you know.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
Full backs in the Premier League are generally pretty big guys,
you know, but and then there's some freakish athletes. I mean,
Mickey van Derven, like the fastest guy in the league,
and he's a full back and he's like six three
to two thirty. So you know, he'd be a outstanding,
bulked up tight end or wide receiver in the National
Football League. So that type of athlete is going to
(07:28):
be on somebody's team.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
So we're gonna get Germany here, right is that?
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (07:35):
They are in the group that is going to come here.
They're the the pot one draw.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
I don't know enough about I'm getting past the ropes
of my understanding of this. So let's well they they're
in one of the three group.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
There's a play if there's a few games that you're
gonna know who's going to play, but still very few. Yeah, okay,
I know there's one one group, one from E one
from Fantwol. Like there's like there's a ground of thirty
two game here and there's a Round of sixteen game here.
I think there's those two games are set so you
can sort of connect the dots and see who might
(08:12):
be in that game, but it's still connecting the dots.
Germany would be great to be here. We had rabid fans.
They're one of the powers of the world. They won
the World Cup two times ago. I was in France
at a house next to people who were from Germany
when they lost in the succeeding It was like people's sky.
(08:33):
They thought they were going to jump out the window.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
I mean it was.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
It was like the first round of the knockout stage
and then the defending champs got sent home and they
were not happy. So I was also at in twenty eighteen,
I was at a watch party in London that was crazy. Well,
I'm sure it was a first round game and they
were supposed to win easily. I think it was Somalia,
I believe, and they were blue, and then they rallied
(09:02):
and tied it and then scored to win with an
extra time beer bottles like it was dangerous. I mean,
just throwing stuff up in the air. I mean I
ran for cover. Stuff was smashing. I was all over
the place. I would like you've liked to have been
in Brazil in fourteen when they got blown out by
Germany seven to one. I was in this studio when
(09:24):
that happened. Actually, so it's going to be fantastic. I mean,
I'm so glad I'm going to I mean, I'm going
to Europe during the World Cup next year, but I'll
be here for quite a bit of the time that
it's here. I'm leaving like on the fourth of July,
so I think the first game here is June twelfth,
so h And I'm also, you know, I think I
(09:45):
have a chance to get credentialed for a game or two,
so that would be fantastic.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Yeah, looking forward to it. Ye, Colin Kline, let's back
up the christ climb and departure many thoughts and he reacted.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
I think that this was I think some of the
emotions we saw, you know. And I don't know, I
have no inside information. I don't know how many people
really do. This is just me viewing the situation. I
don't think Chris Climban necessarily wanted to retire now. I
think that he but he had been talked about being retired.
(10:22):
Fits was on very informative. But when somebody is saying,
I think he'll retire after next season, and he's an
insider and knows a lot of stuff and has his
you know, his finger on the pulse of the situation,
then that's a guy who isn't expecting that he's going
to coach for ten years or so. Then you got
all these high profile openings out there, and there's Colin
(10:44):
Klein sitting there as one of the hottest prospects under
the radar of not being a current head coach. And
I would assume that there are quite a few big
money case state people who said, this is our chances
you know if we if we pass on Colin Klein,
He's probably going to take another job.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
And then you don't think you could have pulled him
from South Florida or you fear that if he goes
to South Florida he does so well. I mean the
last guy at South Florida went to Auburn that he
gets offered a job that state. But you could, but yes,
because I think ideal would have been I kind of
look at it as and I have no inssight into this,
(11:26):
but I look at it as they would really much
rather prefer Chris Climb and State for one more year
or two more years. Let Colin Kline get the first
couple of years of you know, learning the ropes head
coaching experience, and then come bring him home. That to
me would have been ideal.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
I think it would have been.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
But you don't run the risk. If if Climbing's out,
then that's your guy. You need to go get him.
And I don't think there's any chance Jeane Taylor up
there defiantly acting like I don't even know if I
got his number. Well, that's I can't stress how much
I thought that was really poorly done on his part,
because you know what your fan base thinks about Brad
(12:03):
Underwood being allowed to just walk away, and you never
got your shot at Brad Underwood. There was no shot
that Colin Klein was not going to be offered this job. None.
It was just silly the way Jean Taylor handled.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
It at the I agree with that, and I think
I think Chris Cleman should have answered some questions too well,
for sure.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
And but he's quitting. He doesn't have to, but Jean
Taylor does.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
But he's quitting, so he could have, you know, I mean,
he had nothing to really lose and explaining what Jean
Taylor kind of explained for him. How much of a
part of your retiring is the current landscape of college football?
You know, answer answer questions like that. You're free to
answer them in any way you see fit. At this point,
(12:50):
you don't have a job. I think the fear was
that Colin Klein goes to Penn State or something and
then he's at Penn State and done, You're done. So
I think there was a lot of things at play.
I can't say exactly that. I think that Chris Climbing
was quote unquote forced out, sounded like a man in
(13:12):
retrospect when you were looking at the press conference at Utah,
it was clearly frustrated with the way he was being perceived,
at least the way he thought he was being perceived
by the fan base. You know, I'm pouring my you know,
freaking heart and soul into this and he said frigging
about seven times and you know, and he then had
to be consoled and stopped talking for twenty seconds. In retrospect,
you're like, well, maybe the guy, maybe he really did,
(13:34):
you know, this was killing him and you know that
he's had high blood pressure and his wife was telling
him the other's time. Also, it's a landscape where Chris
Clemban strikes me as a man who's you know, twenty
mil that he's earned or whatever being a head coach.
I think it might even be more. Already, Well, it's
been six million a year for the last couple of
(13:54):
ye Yeah, so he's probably just he's not you know,
laying kiffen or something who's just get paid for vanity purposes.
This is big, you know, he's he's a rich man.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
He can if you don't like doing what you're doing.
I mean, I think it was clearly time for him
to move on. I think he made the right choice
for him. He does not like according to Gene Taylor,
and I think based upon what is, he doesn't like
how he's being perceived at k State. And I think
he's got a little bit. I mean, it's in case
David Villinois and in KSE State fans not villainizing anyone.
(14:28):
I'm just telling you what I see, and what I
see is a lot of people that for the guy
who went six and six after winning eight or nine
games every year and plus a conference championship in there
with a double digit win season, and everyone's acting like
he somehow insulted the history of the program this year.
I think the reaction of the k State fans this
(14:48):
year was over the top.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
I agree with it and completely.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
He's a sensitive guy, clearly, which right which like I
have I don't, I don't. I don't think State fans,
if that's how you want to be, then be it.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
You know, I mean, And that's not even villainize. Part
of it is that even if you were sort of
a Chris climb and fan, there still was undoubtedly he
could hear the not whispers that, boy, it'd be great
to have Colin Klein here. Gee, Colin Kleine. We got
to get Colin. He's going to be our next coach whatever,
you know. I'm you know, there was a prize beauty
(15:23):
of yes, you know, and he wasn't it. And he
so he sounded very Bruce Weber esque on the way
out the door. And it was time for them to
move on from Bruce Webber. I think it was definitely
time for Chris Cleman to move on from k State.
Like I said, I think K State could have used
Chris Clemon for a couple more years before turning to
Colin Klein. He's a good football coach, yes, so yes,
(15:45):
And also I think Chris, I think Colin Kleine is
a shiny, great prospect. I think he's going to be
a good head football coach. But you don't know.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
Yeah, I mean he's a prospect.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Right, he's not done it. I mean he's been an
outstanding offensive coordinator, There's no question about that. So he
brings that anyway. He looks like he's like when he
played in every aspect he's he's a leader of men,
you know, the whole. However, the whole.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
What we don't know is how does he handle the
money guys? Because he's going to have to go to
dinner with them, right, Like that's part of when you
ask a guy to give your program one point five million.
You know what he wants. He wants to sit down
and have dinner with the coach. And is he going
to impress him? Like you can see Bill Self, you
see why, you know the k You you see him
(16:42):
charming the pants off anybody. But he sits down a time.
We don't know what Colin Klein mean, he may be
Bill Self in a football you know, coaching.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
I think he's a pretty blunt guy that Yeah, so
I don't know if that you know, who knows how
that's gonna play? You know, you don't know. But the
other part of it, and we're going to explore this
on college game Day tomorrow extensively. But it's I mean,
it's unseemly. Colin Kline is a man of faith, family guy.
I think he's just implicitly somebody you can trust. But
(17:16):
he's gonna coach at Texas A and M for another
month or so, and he's there impressing Johnny second team. Hey,
I'm going up the road to Kansas State. You don't
even have to say it. You can play up there,
you know. I mean, it's unseemly. The whole thing's ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Well that how it works with college, But more are
the fact that they're keeping him on board both.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
Yeah, cut Ties, I understand you want to stay loyal
to the guys, but how loyal can you really even
without saying anything, he is a walking recruiting pitch for
Kansas State while working for Texas A and M. Yeah,
they gotta do something. I mean, I thought of this
when we're talking about this tomorrow too, and it's it's
(18:07):
the roundtable segment. But just start with the calendar year
for college football is February first to February first. Period.
Your NIL contract runs February first to February first, signing
days February first.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
How easy is that?
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Then nobody's leaving. I think the reason the case states is,
you know, considering not going to the bowl game is
they don't know if they're gonna be able to feel
a squad. Yeah, I agree, six or eight players.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Well, first of all, why who even Well, we haven't
put it to our leadership. You know, we don't know
if they why are you giving them an option? What
the hell? Who's running the ship over there? Like, Oh,
we're gonna we're gonna talk to the kids and see what. No,
we're going to the bowl game. We're going to play
in the ball game. Are you wanted to go to
a bowl game? You have people measure program, Why did
(19:00):
you make a bowl game or not make a bowl game?
And you're gonna just hand it away. I can't stress
how dumb that is. Going to years from now if
they don't go to a bowl game, people will talk
about what an asinine decision it was to not play
in a bowl game.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
Well, I think this shows the landscape too. Wouldn't you
think that these guys, at least a decent amount of him,
would like to rally one more time for old coach
Climbing and send him out with a win. I think
he'd coach the game. Well, he said he was going
to be around for a week right now. Maybe he wouldn't.
Maybe he's like I'm done, But I think if his
(19:37):
players went coach, we want to we're in in the
bowl game. If you're in in the bowl game, Yeah,
I think he'd do it.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Yeah, well, that's where I come to. I mean, either
he was forced out, which I don't think was the case,
or he's had it. He's done. He got to the
end of the year, he's like, I am out enough
of this crap. I think he's a guy who's really
really not happy.
Speaker 4 (19:59):
I don't think he forced out, but I think there
were forces that led him to be out. You know.
I think he's like, you know what, I'm sick of
all this conversation and everything. I'm a fine football coach.
I took on an unbelievably difficult assignment. I drive to
the stadium on Bill Snyder Drive. The stadium's named after him.
(20:20):
I gotta walk by a statue of him. And he
did a great job. How many people have failed when
they've been the next guy and he did anything but failed.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
Yeah, I'm with you. Now, do you think Colin clim
will succeed?
Speaker 5 (20:34):
I do.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
That would be my guess that he would succeed. He's
been a as I said, and outstanding often that these
numbers at k State were great. The numbers at A
and M have been great. He was a tough competitor
when he played. He strikes me as being a natural leader. Yeah,
I think from for somebody who hasn't been a head
(20:55):
coach yet and proved it. I don't know if you
can do much better, and he you could be adding
a generation generational coach. I think if he goes to
K State and he has success, probably stay. I mean
the money's good enough. Money's good enough for anybody in
a power of five conference. Now you don't need the ten.
(21:16):
Six is fine. Six Spen's pretty good in Manhattan, Kansas.
You know what. Yeah, I assume he's not going to
have to pay for his membership at Colbert Hill.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Well he's getting four and a half.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Oh yeah, four and a half. But he'll be All
he's got to do is win six games next year
and he'll get an extension. So who cares a darn?
I had to settle for that four and a half
that first year.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
Yeah, brutal.
Speaker 4 (21:42):
I mean to that. I mean sometimes good. I've heard
you talk about this too, that sooner or later, these
people are Eli Drinkwitz is not a ten million dollar
football coach. Come on, that's a that's absurd. He's a
good coach, but there's no reason to do that. He
shouldn't be that close to the guys or in his neighborhood.
Speaker 6 (22:06):
He shouldn't be.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Closer to Kirby Smart than he is calling Klein. Is
that what you're saying right?
Speaker 4 (22:10):
He sat at his own year in press conference after
they you know, won the game against Arkansas and himself
said that they had a disappointing season, while during the
week he said pay me, yea, let's get it over
with now, a d come on, you know you're giving
me a raise, and then went out with all dollar
(22:35):
bills falling out of his pocket, saying, well, we were
disappointing this year. I didn't really do the job. I've
got to get a little bit better. No pay, no
pay raise for you. You just absolutely you know your agent,
you just said you sucked this year. No raise, his choke,
(23:00):
I mean you could you could get another Eli Drinkwitz
let him walk.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Well, I mean I do think we're reaching a point
when I when I see where the SEC schools, No,
I really thought they were gonna look around and be like, okay,
we all we all want Lane Kiffin, and then they
missed on Lank Kiffin. They're gonna be like, well, we
can't bring the TWU Lane coach in here. We're not
We're not bringing the South Florida coach in here. And
I thought they were going to go. I thought Eli
drink Witz would you know when he got the money?
I was like, okay, so he's not going. But I
(23:27):
thought we'd see, you know, take your pick of of
you know, Brett Bile. They probably wouldn't go for Brett
Bielm because he's been but you know somebody who had
a ranked team in the Big Ten or in the ACC,
and they would come throw a bushel money like the
like Brian Kelly's never leaven Notre Dame. Why would ever
leave Notre Dame. Oh no, he's going to l SU.
(23:47):
Like I thought we were going to see a couple
of those. I thought Lincoln Riley was gonna get called
at USC, like you got to fly clear across the
country for all these road games, come on down here
to the SEC. I really thought something like that was
gonna happen. You know, Dan Lanning at Oregon, somebody's gonna
throw fourteen million at him to bring him to Florida,
like I really thought someone and what'd they do. We'll
(24:09):
go five to seven million, almost spend the rest on
the roster.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Right if your case eight you got a four and
a half million dollar coach, get you know, they have
been paying probably what they should. At least you got
some money now to do it. You know, you've got
a bargain coach at four and a half million dollars. So,
I mean, maybe Gene, but they'll just give him a
(24:33):
raise anyway. But I mean, it's just silly. It's silly,
and it's especially silly now when those resources can be
used to make your team better. Yeah, and the coach
sits there and says it while I mean, why don't
you just say, you know what, I want this raise
(24:53):
so I can turn around and write an nil check
for four mil. Here it is, wouldn't that be? The
fan base would just love a coach who did that. Instead,
they ask for more money after and.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
Then they bitch about how much they're getting for their roster.
A right, that was Matt rules, Yeah deal Nebraska, and
then he rolls out one of the worst recruiting classes
in Nebraska's.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
Had, right, Just I mean the whole thing is it's broken.
It's it's a broken Mercedes that works. I mean, college
football was healthy this year. People like to watch it
and everything, but it just shows that kind of anything
can work. I mean, it's just look at that Galoppi.
(25:36):
It's beautiful. Though I like watching it. It can't drive
from here to you know, at least Summit, but it
looks good and I'll pay money to go see it.

Speaker 4 (26:46):
Nick and Jakes end of the hour answer.
Speaker 5 (26:47):
How many head coaches have won more than one Big
twelve Championship game?
Speaker 4 (26:54):
I'll say tube in twenty four. I think this is
a twenty fourth coming up or twenty three. I'll say two.
Speaker 5 (27:00):
I got a funny cent to me. I'm sorry, okay.
How many head coaches like a ferret? Sometimes I am.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
When when I get like, oh, who's that? I got
a Yukon Cornelia's mock thing here?
Speaker 4 (27:13):
So nice?
Speaker 5 (27:14):
How many head coaches have won more than one Big
twelve Championship game? Oh well, Bob Stoops has ten, Mac
Brown probably did twice.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
Okay, there's two, got to got two?
Speaker 4 (27:36):
Yeah, I thought it was just Stoops and Snyder.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
There's three. That's probably about it, though I'm guessing two more. Five.
Speaker 5 (27:46):
One guy has won, two, one guy has won. Four
guys one active guys one four is still active, but
he's somewhere else obviously.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Four is he so where else because the school left?
Speaker 5 (28:01):
Or no, he's he's at a name universal He left
to take a job job, maybe more money on the
West coast.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Miss it?
Speaker 4 (28:10):
Oh well, Lincoln Ley, Lincoln Riley one four four I
remember him being there that long Oklahoma.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
In football in the Big Twelve was almost as dominant
Kansas as fourteen.
Speaker 4 (28:21):
Fourteen of the twenty three that had been won by Oklahoma. Yeah,
I just owned that. Lee didn't think he was there
that long. I don't remember.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Well, you had three different Heisman two Heisman's and a
Heisman runner upright three years for I.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
Thought that was three. I thought that was.
Speaker 5 (28:39):
The other guy was left with some negative art Brills,
arp brows, stoops, Riley.
Speaker 4 (28:47):
Snyder, Brill's and Brown. I was close to you were
not close with these.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Three performance by Danny.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
It was simply terrible standard, suboptimal, suboptimal.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
There you go. Uh, I like it, Danny. How about
these Chiefs? It's gonna happen?
Speaker 4 (29:07):
Boy, howdy, I'm gonna say it's not gonna happen. But
I think the chances are a little bit better than
some of the math I see out there. You know,
the schedules are difficulty and a half point favorite.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
What math you've seen that says it's not going to happen?
Speaker 4 (29:24):
No, I mean the playoff projections are generally playoffs. Oh
the Texans game. Take him one at a time, Danny,
I didn't I didn't know about those Chiefs.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
I wonder they're playing so bad. You're looking all the
way down the the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
I think they're going to win a freaking game here,
eke a victory out. I don't know why I am
saying that. I'm a logical man. Logic would say to
me that a red hot Texans team whose biggest strength
is matched up against a at least for the moment,
(30:00):
big weakness for the Chiefs, should be favored in the game.
But I guess it's it's just the years of excellence,
and you know, this is a game the Chiefs. You know,
the Chiefs missing the playoffs would be a surprising development.
I think they will miss the playoffs if they lose
this game, not because they lose the game necessarily, record wise,
(30:24):
they could go four and one and make the playoffs
for sure. But what would make you think that they
can win all the four of those games that they
just keep on losing.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
You're talking about four of the five to get there,
or you're no, they'd have to win.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
No, I'm talking about if they'd have to win all
four for sure. If they lose this, if they lose
this one.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
And they hurt some that's a team that they're going
to find out with a tiebreaker two possible.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
Yeah, Sam quoted. I can't remember whose odds he was quoting,
but he said with a win, the Chiefs playoff odds
are fifty to fifty with a loss or eleven percent.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
That strikes me as about right, because it just all.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
The tiebreakers have gone. They've only got a tie breaker
against the Colts at that point.
Speaker 5 (31:03):
If they get in with four and one, they're much
more likely to get in if that loss is to
Denver than it is to Houston. Yeah, for sure, right,
for sure, easily. But that's about the only team they
can actually survive, you know, That's about the only team
they can survive a loss.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
To me and get in.
Speaker 3 (31:19):
In my view, the playoffs have a gun now. They
kept trying to Tony Romo kept trying to act like
it was last week. It wasn't. And everybody who can
count knew that except for Tony Romo and you know who.
Maybe I'm wrong, Maybe Tony Romo can't count and that's
why he didn't know it, But I don't know. One two, five,
(31:40):
eight four. Sorry, I really enjoyed that.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
So I'll say the Chiefs are going to win nineteen seventeen.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Everybody has one of those trash weird bunch of field.
Speaker 4 (32:00):
Goals, right, so I could see it being lower. Strikes
me as a game, it's going to be seven to
six at the half, to four six six six at
the half, something like that, and then we'll see what happens.
I'm a little concerned for the health of the quarterback
in this game. I have said, I think pushing an
(32:23):
open door.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
As they say, yeah, I mean to me, I didn't
understand why Wanya Morris made the team, but we didn't
make that big a deal of it because we didn't
think we were gonna actually see him play. Now he's
out there, and it's like we should have been making
a bigger deal out of this, like there's no reason
for this to be the case, Like you're gonna send
fifteen out there with one more that. The part that
(32:44):
makes it so hard for me to understand is I
don't understand how you commission. There's no doubt that the
chiefs had final editing, say on the Kingdom, and you
sent a thing out and all had to be nationally promoted.
But as your quarterback bumming one more yeah, and then
you kept him on the team. Everybody on the team
(33:06):
saw that. There's nobody on the team that's like, oh yeah,
we're all in behind this guy. They're like, this is
the guy that Pat wanted to kick his ass on
the sideline last year.
Speaker 4 (33:15):
Well, let's go their competitors.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
Run out and run through a banner like it's high
school football.
Speaker 4 (33:23):
No, Will Anderson might be out on the town till
two am. If he knows that one day Morris is
going to line up against him, be like, this is
going to be child's play. I'm going drinking. They're bringing
up the triple A pitcher. Let's get the casino. We'll
rake against that guy that humping Lamb and Pickens. They
(33:45):
only had to sit out the first series, so what
let's go.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
I don't think Willy Anderson's that type of guy, but
anyway he could be. He could get away with it. Possibly.
Speaker 5 (33:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
I am games at night.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
I am completely open the idea that Andy Reid. You know,
I had a friend who said he listened to the
podcast and they said, like, what do you think this
is the two thousand Ravens defense. I'm like, no, I
just I think the defense it's the best defense in
the NFL. I don't think it's generational, but it's the
best defense in the NFL right now. And you're running
Wan you Morris out there. That's the That's the thing.
(34:22):
Like if it were Juwan Taylor, and if it does
end up being supposedly there's a small chance, I don't
think there's any chance, but there's a small chance Jowan
Taylor could play. So if you run out Jawan Taylor
and Jalen Moore, I like the Chiefs, but you run
Wana Morris out there, and and Andy Reid has shown
no proclivity to really earnestly help a tackle that is drowning, right,
(34:48):
Never does a life preserver get thrown out there.
Speaker 4 (34:52):
Yeah, they don't.
Speaker 3 (34:53):
Beat the water harder, you know, cough it up.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
Yeah, still clop it up, Still fills the field with receivers,
you know, it's not like.
Speaker 3 (35:03):
The shoes off. They're weighing you down. But never does
he send a boat or a life ring or a helicopter. No,
screw you.
Speaker 4 (35:16):
Down, you go, we'll see. Yes, if it's One or
Morris out there at the start, you can't feel good
about it. Yes, Patrick Mahomes is fully capable of pulling
off miracles. Yes, Houston's offense is, you know, not great,
(35:37):
although they're getting trending better and you know, I think,
I think help the C. J. Stroud is actually a
good player. I'd probably like him a little bit more
than most people do, so they got something. But if
you're Steve Spagnola and his defense, this is a time
for you to step up and show you would. You
(35:58):
should feel embarrassed. You're supposed to be a good defense
and haven't looked like it.

Speaker 5 (37:38):
Big spend about thirty minutes dealing with angry Missouri fans.
Peterson's gonna play and he's gonna drop thirty on them.
Speaker 4 (37:45):
I just feel it. I think Kansas is going to
win fairly comfortably. Peterson or no, Peterson.
Speaker 3 (37:53):
Is that because you think so much of Kansas are
so little of Missouri.
Speaker 4 (37:57):
I like the way Kansas the rest of their group.
I don't think it's good enough to you know, reach
the heights they would like to without Peterson, but I
haven't impressed how much they've improved. You know, after the
first few games, I said right here, I didn't think
that group was good enough. But I think they found
something in Vegas. They played tough. Now they're they're limited.
We saw that in the last game. But I think
(38:17):
their toughness is you know, Missouri in Case State, it's
like watching the same team. I mean, Missouri's better, but
you're still guard defense optional.
Speaker 6 (38:29):
Guard.
Speaker 4 (38:29):
Somebody please try a little effing.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Curtis Center this week in case they dink guard No, no,

what do you think of the pool that the Americans
got in the soccer?
Speaker 4 (02:21):
I think it's okay. I think it's about middle of
the pack. I don't think it's a group of death.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
But I don't which they survived the group of death
when they got that right, I don't hear.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
I don't think it's easy, but you know, they're just
they're they're seemingly coming together, I think, And you know,
to get to the knockout stage now, with the forty
eight teams in there, you only have to be one
of the good third place teams in your group, so
(02:51):
you should advance. That would be very disappointing if they
didn't advance. But I thought, you know, Uruguay's good squad.
They have a good history, have some good young talent,
but they don't have much experience. The soccer rus are,
you know, spicy and athletic usually, but they're not a
great soccer playing nation. And then it's a playoff team.
(03:14):
You don't really There's twenty two teams left and six
of them are going to make it, so it's hard
to figure out who that team will be. It is
possible that it would ranked team of the fourth. It
could be Turkey that wouldn't be good. It could be Italy,
but those teams should be beatable. For the United States,
I think the United States has enough talent around and
(03:34):
they have a good coach, so I would think that
you should have high hopes. When he first came aboard
and watched Tino's an outstanding coach. Has been done a
good shob wherever he's been pretty much, and it seems
like he's gotten his teeth into the job. At first
it looked bad, you know, but and also they're missing
some guys with injury who are very important. Anthony Robinson
(03:55):
as probably was the American Soccer Player of the Year
last year, and he hasn't played in months. Supposedly he'll
be ready for the World Cup. So uh, I thought
it was good. I mean, the presentation was ludicrous, but
actually there would have been the only one who wasn't
and it would have been a real improvement, is for sure.
I mean it took him like an hour and forty
(04:17):
five minutes to even start pulling balls. So you know,
I can't think of anything more entertaining than watching Donald
Trump pull balls.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Cow just keeps going mark a good carpal tunnel, just
pressing the mark button.
Speaker 4 (04:37):
Yeah. That that's to me.
Speaker 5 (04:39):
That thing was done for the people who were there,
which is a small percentage of the people that they
they care about this thing. But everyone almost everyone else
is watching on their laptop or they're on TV or something.
Speaker 4 (04:49):
You are just waiting for thee to tell us, tell
us what is going with what the groups are and
what they think. First, let's have another music like come
out and sing and let you do that for everything.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
Now. Yeah, it's like they did it when they renounced
in the the and and they generally don't have anyone
involved with the with the broadcast that really has any
idea about soccer. Don't you remember the gal who when
when they now Atlanta, she goes the Midwest.
Speaker 4 (05:16):
Oh, everything was so super exciting.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Pansas City, the West Coast.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
Shack renowned soccer expert Kevin Hart.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Aaron Judge.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
I'll watch Kevin Hart do anything.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
I agree.
Speaker 4 (05:33):
I think wat he's funny reading the poot Aaron Judge.
Speaker 3 (05:37):
I saw him up there at one point.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
I think he do believe he has some interest in soccer.
I've I've seen him interviewed about soccer before. You know,
you'd make a good keeper or something like that, which
we probably.
Speaker 3 (05:49):
Would a little probably a little tough to get down
on the ground.
Speaker 4 (05:54):
Right, Well that's true seven, Yeah, but most good keepers
in the world tower.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Like six three or tall or taller really getting bigger.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Yeah, yeah, I mean I six seven is, but I'd
say it's very unusual for them to be under six three.
I'll say that.
Speaker 3 (06:10):
Yeah, so, uh so you're predicting the World Cup finally
comes home.
Speaker 4 (06:15):
No, t I am not. Oh no, oh no no.
I think they have a chance to get to the
round of sixteen. Anything past that would be magical. I think.
You know, you're still talking about soccer playing nations where
eighty five percent of the good athletes in the in
(06:36):
the country want to play soccer, you know, unless they
get sized out of it kind of you know, and
have to go play basketball or whatever. So and it
also is a kind of thing where the gigantic pool
of athletes because you don't have to be big to
be a great soccer player, so.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
You actually need to not be big, right well, I mean, now,
if you want to try carrying two hundred and sixty
pounds for ten and a half miles of running, it's
not gonna work. Now, you know.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
Full backs in the Premier League are generally pretty big guys,
you know, but and then there's some freakish athletes. I mean,
Mickey van Derven, like the fastest guy in the league,
and he's a full back and he's like six three
to two thirty. So you know, he'd be a outstanding,
bulked up tight end or wide receiver in the National
Football League. So that type of athlete is going to
(07:28):
be on somebody's team.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
So we're gonna get Germany here, right is that?
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (07:35):
They are in the group that is going to come here.
They're the the pot one draw.
Speaker 4 (07:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
I don't know enough about I'm getting past the ropes
of my understanding of this. So let's well they they're
in one of the three group.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
There's a play if there's a few games that you're
gonna know who's going to play, but still very few. Yeah, okay,
I know there's one one group, one from E one
from Fantwol. Like there's like there's a ground of thirty
two game here and there's a Round of sixteen game here.
I think there's those two games are set so you
can sort of connect the dots and see who might
(08:12):
be in that game, but it's still connecting the dots.
Germany would be great to be here. We had rabid fans.
They're one of the powers of the world. They won
the World Cup two times ago. I was in France
at a house next to people who were from Germany
when they lost in the succeeding It was like people's sky.
(08:33):
They thought they were going to jump out the window.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
I mean it was.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
It was like the first round of the knockout stage
and then the defending champs got sent home and they
were not happy. So I was also at in twenty eighteen,
I was at a watch party in London that was crazy. Well,
I'm sure it was a first round game and they
were supposed to win easily. I think it was Somalia,
I believe, and they were blue, and then they rallied
(09:02):
and tied it and then scored to win with an
extra time beer bottles like it was dangerous. I mean,
just throwing stuff up in the air. I mean I
ran for cover. Stuff was smashing. I was all over
the place. I would like you've liked to have been
in Brazil in fourteen when they got blown out by
Germany seven to one. I was in this studio when
(09:24):
that happened. Actually, so it's going to be fantastic. I mean,
I'm so glad I'm going to I mean, I'm going
to Europe during the World Cup next year, but I'll
be here for quite a bit of the time that
it's here. I'm leaving like on the fourth of July,
so I think the first game here is June twelfth,
so h And I'm also, you know, I think I
(09:45):
have a chance to get credentialed for a game or two,
so that would be fantastic.
Speaker 3 (09:48):
Yeah, looking forward to it. Ye, Colin Kline, let's back
up the christ climb and departure many thoughts and he reacted.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
I think that this was I think some of the
emotions we saw, you know. And I don't know, I
have no inside information. I don't know how many people
really do. This is just me viewing the situation. I
don't think Chris Climban necessarily wanted to retire now. I
think that he but he had been talked about being retired.
(10:22):
Fits was on very informative. But when somebody is saying,
I think he'll retire after next season, and he's an
insider and knows a lot of stuff and has his
you know, his finger on the pulse of the situation,
then that's a guy who isn't expecting that he's going
to coach for ten years or so. Then you got
all these high profile openings out there, and there's Colin
(10:44):
Klein sitting there as one of the hottest prospects under
the radar of not being a current head coach. And
I would assume that there are quite a few big
money case state people who said, this is our chances
you know if we if we pass on Colin Klein,
He's probably going to take another job.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
And then you don't think you could have pulled him
from South Florida or you fear that if he goes
to South Florida he does so well. I mean the
last guy at South Florida went to Auburn that he
gets offered a job that state. But you could, but yes,
because I think ideal would have been I kind of
look at it as and I have no inssight into this,
(11:26):
but I look at it as they would really much
rather prefer Chris Climb and State for one more year
or two more years. Let Colin Kline get the first
couple of years of you know, learning the ropes head
coaching experience, and then come bring him home. That to
me would have been ideal.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
I think it would have been.
Speaker 3 (11:43):
But you don't run the risk. If if Climbing's out,
then that's your guy. You need to go get him.
And I don't think there's any chance Jeane Taylor up
there defiantly acting like I don't even know if I
got his number. Well, that's I can't stress how much
I thought that was really poorly done on his part,
because you know what your fan base thinks about Brad
(12:03):
Underwood being allowed to just walk away, and you never
got your shot at Brad Underwood. There was no shot
that Colin Klein was not going to be offered this job. None.
It was just silly the way Jean Taylor handled.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
It at the I agree with that, and I think
I think Chris Cleman should have answered some questions too well,
for sure.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
And but he's quitting. He doesn't have to, but Jean
Taylor does.
Speaker 4 (12:28):
But he's quitting, so he could have, you know, I mean,
he had nothing to really lose and explaining what Jean
Taylor kind of explained for him. How much of a
part of your retiring is the current landscape of college football?
You know, answer answer questions like that. You're free to
answer them in any way you see fit. At this point,
(12:50):
you don't have a job. I think the fear was
that Colin Klein goes to Penn State or something and
then he's at Penn State and done, You're done. So
I think there was a lot of things at play.
I can't say exactly that. I think that Chris Climbing
was quote unquote forced out, sounded like a man in
(13:12):
retrospect when you were looking at the press conference at Utah,
it was clearly frustrated with the way he was being perceived,
at least the way he thought he was being perceived
by the fan base. You know, I'm pouring my you know,
freaking heart and soul into this and he said frigging
about seven times and you know, and he then had
to be consoled and stopped talking for twenty seconds. In retrospect,
you're like, well, maybe the guy, maybe he really did,
(13:34):
you know, this was killing him and you know that
he's had high blood pressure and his wife was telling
him the other's time. Also, it's a landscape where Chris
Clemban strikes me as a man who's you know, twenty
mil that he's earned or whatever being a head coach.
I think it might even be more. Already, Well, it's
been six million a year for the last couple of
(13:54):
ye Yeah, so he's probably just he's not you know,
laying kiffen or something who's just get paid for vanity purposes.
This is big, you know, he's he's a rich man.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
He can if you don't like doing what you're doing.
I mean, I think it was clearly time for him
to move on. I think he made the right choice
for him. He does not like according to Gene Taylor,
and I think based upon what is, he doesn't like
how he's being perceived at k State. And I think
he's got a little bit. I mean, it's in case
David Villinois and in KSE State fans not villainizing anyone.
(14:28):
I'm just telling you what I see, and what I
see is a lot of people that for the guy
who went six and six after winning eight or nine
games every year and plus a conference championship in there
with a double digit win season, and everyone's acting like
he somehow insulted the history of the program this year.
I think the reaction of the k State fans this
(14:48):
year was over the top.
Speaker 4 (14:49):
I agree with it and completely.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
He's a sensitive guy, clearly, which right which like I
have I don't, I don't. I don't think State fans,
if that's how you want to be, then be it.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
You know, I mean, And that's not even villainize. Part
of it is that even if you were sort of
a Chris climb and fan, there still was undoubtedly he
could hear the not whispers that, boy, it'd be great
to have Colin Klein here. Gee, Colin Kleine. We got
to get Colin. He's going to be our next coach whatever,
you know. I'm you know, there was a prize beauty
(15:23):
of yes, you know, and he wasn't it. And he
so he sounded very Bruce Weber esque on the way
out the door. And it was time for them to
move on from Bruce Webber. I think it was definitely
time for Chris Cleman to move on from k State.
Like I said, I think K State could have used
Chris Clemon for a couple more years before turning to
Colin Klein. He's a good football coach, yes, so yes,
(15:45):
And also I think Chris, I think Colin Kleine is
a shiny, great prospect. I think he's going to be
a good head football coach. But you don't know.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
Yeah, I mean he's a prospect.
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Right, he's not done it. I mean he's been an
outstanding offensive coordinator, There's no question about that. So he
brings that anyway. He looks like he's like when he
played in every aspect he's he's a leader of men,
you know, the whole. However, the whole.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
What we don't know is how does he handle the
money guys? Because he's going to have to go to
dinner with them, right, Like that's part of when you
ask a guy to give your program one point five million.
You know what he wants. He wants to sit down
and have dinner with the coach. And is he going
to impress him? Like you can see Bill Self, you
see why, you know the k You you see him
(16:42):
charming the pants off anybody. But he sits down a time.
We don't know what Colin Klein mean, he may be
Bill Self in a football you know, coaching.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
I think he's a pretty blunt guy that Yeah, so
I don't know if that you know, who knows how
that's gonna play? You know, you don't know. But the
other part of it, and we're going to explore this
on college game Day tomorrow extensively. But it's I mean,
it's unseemly. Colin Kline is a man of faith, family guy.
I think he's just implicitly somebody you can trust. But
(17:16):
he's gonna coach at Texas A and M for another
month or so, and he's there impressing Johnny second team. Hey,
I'm going up the road to Kansas State. You don't
even have to say it. You can play up there,
you know. I mean, it's unseemly. The whole thing's ridiculous.
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Well that how it works with college, But more are
the fact that they're keeping him on board both.
Speaker 4 (17:46):
Yeah, cut Ties, I understand you want to stay loyal
to the guys, but how loyal can you really even
without saying anything, he is a walking recruiting pitch for
Kansas State while working for Texas A and M. Yeah,
they gotta do something. I mean, I thought of this
when we're talking about this tomorrow too, and it's it's
(18:07):
the roundtable segment. But just start with the calendar year
for college football is February first to February first. Period.
Your NIL contract runs February first to February first, signing
days February first.
Speaker 3 (18:23):
How easy is that?
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Then nobody's leaving. I think the reason the case states is,
you know, considering not going to the bowl game is
they don't know if they're gonna be able to feel
a squad. Yeah, I agree, six or eight players.
Speaker 3 (18:37):
Well, first of all, why who even Well, we haven't
put it to our leadership. You know, we don't know
if they why are you giving them an option? What
the hell? Who's running the ship over there? Like, Oh,
we're gonna we're gonna talk to the kids and see what. No,
we're going to the bowl game. We're going to play
in the ball game. Are you wanted to go to
a bowl game? You have people measure program, Why did
(19:00):
you make a bowl game or not make a bowl game?
And you're gonna just hand it away. I can't stress
how dumb that is. Going to years from now if
they don't go to a bowl game, people will talk
about what an asinine decision it was to not play
in a bowl game.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
Well, I think this shows the landscape too. Wouldn't you
think that these guys, at least a decent amount of him,
would like to rally one more time for old coach
Climbing and send him out with a win. I think
he'd coach the game. Well, he said he was going
to be around for a week right now. Maybe he wouldn't.
Maybe he's like I'm done, But I think if his
(19:37):
players went coach, we want to we're in in the
bowl game. If you're in in the bowl game, Yeah,
I think he'd do it.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Yeah, well, that's where I come to. I mean, either
he was forced out, which I don't think was the case,
or he's had it. He's done. He got to the
end of the year, he's like, I am out enough
of this crap. I think he's a guy who's really
really not happy.
Speaker 4 (19:59):
I don't think he forced out, but I think there
were forces that led him to be out. You know.
I think he's like, you know what, I'm sick of
all this conversation and everything. I'm a fine football coach.
I took on an unbelievably difficult assignment. I drive to
the stadium on Bill Snyder Drive. The stadium's named after him.
(20:20):
I gotta walk by a statue of him. And he
did a great job. How many people have failed when
they've been the next guy and he did anything but failed.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
Yeah, I'm with you. Now, do you think Colin clim
will succeed?
Speaker 5 (20:34):
I do.
Speaker 4 (20:35):
That would be my guess that he would succeed. He's
been a as I said, and outstanding often that these
numbers at k State were great. The numbers at A
and M have been great. He was a tough competitor
when he played. He strikes me as being a natural leader. Yeah,
I think from for somebody who hasn't been a head
(20:55):
coach yet and proved it. I don't know if you
can do much better, and he you could be adding
a generation generational coach. I think if he goes to
K State and he has success, probably stay. I mean
the money's good enough. Money's good enough for anybody in
a power of five conference. Now you don't need the ten.
(21:16):
Six is fine. Six Spen's pretty good in Manhattan, Kansas.
You know what. Yeah, I assume he's not going to
have to pay for his membership at Colbert Hill.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
Well he's getting four and a half.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Oh yeah, four and a half. But he'll be All
he's got to do is win six games next year
and he'll get an extension. So who cares a darn?
I had to settle for that four and a half
that first year.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
Yeah, brutal.
Speaker 4 (21:42):
I mean to that. I mean sometimes good. I've heard
you talk about this too, that sooner or later, these
people are Eli Drinkwitz is not a ten million dollar
football coach. Come on, that's a that's absurd. He's a
good coach, but there's no reason to do that. He
shouldn't be that close to the guys or in his neighborhood.
Speaker 6 (22:06):
He shouldn't be.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Closer to Kirby Smart than he is calling Klein. Is
that what you're saying right?
Speaker 4 (22:10):
He sat at his own year in press conference after
they you know, won the game against Arkansas and himself
said that they had a disappointing season, while during the
week he said pay me, yea, let's get it over
with now, a d come on, you know you're giving
me a raise, and then went out with all dollar
(22:35):
bills falling out of his pocket, saying, well, we were
disappointing this year. I didn't really do the job. I've
got to get a little bit better. No pay, no
pay raise for you. You just absolutely you know your agent,
you just said you sucked this year. No raise, his choke,
(23:00):
I mean you could you could get another Eli Drinkwitz
let him walk.
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Well, I mean I do think we're reaching a point
when I when I see where the SEC schools, No,
I really thought they were gonna look around and be like, okay,
we all we all want Lane Kiffin, and then they
missed on Lank Kiffin. They're gonna be like, well, we
can't bring the TWU Lane coach in here. We're not
We're not bringing the South Florida coach in here. And
I thought they were going to go. I thought Eli
drink Witz would you know when he got the money?
I was like, okay, so he's not going. But I
(23:27):
thought we'd see, you know, take your pick of of
you know, Brett Bile. They probably wouldn't go for Brett
Bielm because he's been but you know somebody who had
a ranked team in the Big Ten or in the ACC,
and they would come throw a bushel money like the
like Brian Kelly's never leaven Notre Dame. Why would ever
leave Notre Dame. Oh no, he's going to l SU.
(23:47):
Like I thought we were going to see a couple
of those. I thought Lincoln Riley was gonna get called
at USC, like you got to fly clear across the
country for all these road games, come on down here
to the SEC. I really thought something like that was
gonna happen. You know, Dan Lanning at Oregon, somebody's gonna
throw fourteen million at him to bring him to Florida,
like I really thought someone and what'd they do. We'll
(24:09):
go five to seven million, almost spend the rest on
the roster.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
Right if your case eight you got a four and
a half million dollar coach, get you know, they have
been paying probably what they should. At least you got
some money now to do it. You know, you've got
a bargain coach at four and a half million dollars. So,
I mean, maybe Gene, but they'll just give him a
(24:33):
raise anyway. But I mean, it's just silly. It's silly,
and it's especially silly now when those resources can be
used to make your team better. Yeah, and the coach
sits there and says it while I mean, why don't
you just say, you know what, I want this raise
(24:53):
so I can turn around and write an nil check
for four mil. Here it is, wouldn't that be? The
fan base would just love a coach who did that. Instead,
they ask for more money after and.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
Then they bitch about how much they're getting for their roster.
A right, that was Matt rules, Yeah deal Nebraska, and
then he rolls out one of the worst recruiting classes
in Nebraska's.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
Had, right, Just I mean the whole thing is it's broken.
It's it's a broken Mercedes that works. I mean, college
football was healthy this year. People like to watch it
and everything, but it just shows that kind of anything
can work. I mean, it's just look at that Galoppi.
(25:36):
It's beautiful. Though I like watching it. It can't drive
from here to you know, at least Summit, but it
looks good and I'll pay money to go see it.

Speaker 4 (26:46):
Nick and Jakes end of the hour answer.
Speaker 5 (26:47):
How many head coaches have won more than one Big
twelve Championship game?
Speaker 4 (26:54):
I'll say tube in twenty four. I think this is
a twenty fourth coming up or twenty three. I'll say two.
Speaker 5 (27:00):
I got a funny cent to me. I'm sorry, okay.
How many head coaches like a ferret? Sometimes I am.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
When when I get like, oh, who's that? I got
a Yukon Cornelia's mock thing here?
Speaker 4 (27:13):
So nice?
Speaker 5 (27:14):
How many head coaches have won more than one Big
twelve Championship game? Oh well, Bob Stoops has ten, Mac
Brown probably did twice.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
Okay, there's two, got to got two?
Speaker 4 (27:36):
Yeah, I thought it was just Stoops and Snyder.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
There's three. That's probably about it, though I'm guessing two more. Five.
Speaker 5 (27:46):
One guy has won, two, one guy has won. Four
guys one active guys one four is still active, but
he's somewhere else obviously.
Speaker 3 (27:56):
Four is he so where else because the school left?
Speaker 5 (28:01):
Or no, he's he's at a name universal He left
to take a job job, maybe more money on the
West coast.
Speaker 3 (28:09):
Miss it?
Speaker 4 (28:10):
Oh well, Lincoln Ley, Lincoln Riley one four four I
remember him being there that long Oklahoma.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
In football in the Big Twelve was almost as dominant
Kansas as fourteen.
Speaker 4 (28:21):
Fourteen of the twenty three that had been won by Oklahoma. Yeah,
I just owned that. Lee didn't think he was there
that long. I don't remember.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
Well, you had three different Heisman two Heisman's and a
Heisman runner upright three years for I.
Speaker 4 (28:36):
Thought that was three. I thought that was.
Speaker 5 (28:39):
The other guy was left with some negative art Brills,
arp brows, stoops, Riley.
Speaker 4 (28:47):
Snyder, Brill's and Brown. I was close to you were
not close with these.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Three performance by Danny.
Speaker 4 (28:55):
It was simply terrible standard, suboptimal, suboptimal.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
There you go. Uh, I like it, Danny. How about
these Chiefs? It's gonna happen?
Speaker 4 (29:07):
Boy, howdy, I'm gonna say it's not gonna happen. But
I think the chances are a little bit better than
some of the math I see out there. You know,
the schedules are difficulty and a half point favorite.
Speaker 3 (29:22):
What math you've seen that says it's not going to happen?
Speaker 4 (29:24):
No, I mean the playoff projections are generally playoffs. Oh
the Texans game. Take him one at a time, Danny,
I didn't I didn't know about those Chiefs.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
I wonder they're playing so bad. You're looking all the
way down the the playoffs.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
I think they're going to win a freaking game here,
eke a victory out. I don't know why I am
saying that. I'm a logical man. Logic would say to
me that a red hot Texans team whose biggest strength
is matched up against a at least for the moment,
(30:00):
big weakness for the Chiefs, should be favored in the game.
But I guess it's it's just the years of excellence,
and you know, this is a game the Chiefs. You know,
the Chiefs missing the playoffs would be a surprising development.
I think they will miss the playoffs if they lose
this game, not because they lose the game necessarily, record wise,
(30:24):
they could go four and one and make the playoffs
for sure. But what would make you think that they
can win all the four of those games that they
just keep on losing.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
You're talking about four of the five to get there,
or you're no, they'd have to win.
Speaker 4 (30:39):
No, I'm talking about if they'd have to win all
four for sure. If they lose this, if they lose
this one.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
And they hurt some that's a team that they're going
to find out with a tiebreaker two possible.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
Yeah, Sam quoted. I can't remember whose odds he was quoting,
but he said with a win, the Chiefs playoff odds
are fifty to fifty with a loss or eleven percent.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
That strikes me as about right, because it just all.
Speaker 3 (31:00):
The tiebreakers have gone. They've only got a tie breaker
against the Colts at that point.
Speaker 5 (31:03):
If they get in with four and one, they're much
more likely to get in if that loss is to
Denver than it is to Houston. Yeah, for sure, right,
for sure, easily. But that's about the only team they
can actually survive, you know, That's about the only team
they can survive a loss.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
To me and get in.
Speaker 3 (31:19):
In my view, the playoffs have a gun now. They
kept trying to Tony Romo kept trying to act like
it was last week. It wasn't. And everybody who can
count knew that except for Tony Romo and you know who.
Maybe I'm wrong, Maybe Tony Romo can't count and that's
why he didn't know it, But I don't know. One two, five,
(31:40):
eight four. Sorry, I really enjoyed that.
Speaker 4 (31:49):
So I'll say the Chiefs are going to win nineteen seventeen.
Speaker 3 (31:57):
Everybody has one of those trash weird bunch of field.
Speaker 4 (32:00):
Goals, right, so I could see it being lower. Strikes
me as a game, it's going to be seven to
six at the half, to four six six six at
the half, something like that, and then we'll see what happens.
I'm a little concerned for the health of the quarterback
in this game. I have said, I think pushing an
(32:23):
open door.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
As they say, yeah, I mean to me, I didn't
understand why Wanya Morris made the team, but we didn't
make that big a deal of it because we didn't
think we were gonna actually see him play. Now he's
out there, and it's like we should have been making
a bigger deal out of this, like there's no reason
for this to be the case, Like you're gonna send
fifteen out there with one more that. The part that
(32:44):
makes it so hard for me to understand is I
don't understand how you commission. There's no doubt that the
chiefs had final editing, say on the Kingdom, and you
sent a thing out and all had to be nationally promoted.
But as your quarterback bumming one more yeah, and then
you kept him on the team. Everybody on the team
(33:06):
saw that. There's nobody on the team that's like, oh yeah,
we're all in behind this guy. They're like, this is
the guy that Pat wanted to kick his ass on
the sideline last year.
Speaker 4 (33:15):
Well, let's go their competitors.
Speaker 3 (33:20):
Run out and run through a banner like it's high
school football.
Speaker 4 (33:23):
No, Will Anderson might be out on the town till
two am. If he knows that one day Morris is
going to line up against him, be like, this is
going to be child's play. I'm going drinking. They're bringing
up the triple A pitcher. Let's get the casino. We'll
rake against that guy that humping Lamb and Pickens. They
(33:45):
only had to sit out the first series, so what
let's go.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
I don't think Willy Anderson's that type of guy, but
anyway he could be. He could get away with it. Possibly.
Speaker 5 (33:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (33:56):
I am games at night.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
I am completely open the idea that Andy Reid. You know,
I had a friend who said he listened to the
podcast and they said, like, what do you think this
is the two thousand Ravens defense. I'm like, no, I
just I think the defense it's the best defense in
the NFL. I don't think it's generational, but it's the
best defense in the NFL right now. And you're running
Wan you Morris out there. That's the That's the thing.
(34:22):
Like if it were Juwan Taylor, and if it does
end up being supposedly there's a small chance, I don't
think there's any chance, but there's a small chance Jowan
Taylor could play. So if you run out Jawan Taylor
and Jalen Moore, I like the Chiefs, but you run
Wana Morris out there, and and Andy Reid has shown
no proclivity to really earnestly help a tackle that is drowning, right,
(34:48):
Never does a life preserver get thrown out there.
Speaker 4 (34:52):
Yeah, they don't.
Speaker 3 (34:53):
Beat the water harder, you know, cough it up.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
Yeah, still clop it up, Still fills the field with receivers,
you know, it's not like.
Speaker 3 (35:03):
The shoes off. They're weighing you down. But never does
he send a boat or a life ring or a helicopter. No,
screw you.
Speaker 4 (35:16):
Down, you go, we'll see. Yes, if it's One or
Morris out there at the start, you can't feel good
about it. Yes, Patrick Mahomes is fully capable of pulling
off miracles. Yes, Houston's offense is, you know, not great,
(35:37):
although they're getting trending better and you know, I think,
I think help the C. J. Stroud is actually a
good player. I'd probably like him a little bit more
than most people do, so they got something. But if
you're Steve Spagnola and his defense, this is a time
for you to step up and show you would. You
(35:58):
should feel embarrassed. You're supposed to be a good defense
and haven't looked like it.

Big spend about thirty minutes dealing with angry Missouri fans.
Peterson's gonna play and he's gonna drop thirty on them.
Speaker 4 (37:45):
I just feel it. I think Kansas is going to
win fairly comfortably. Peterson or no, Peterson.
Speaker 3 (37:53):
Is that because you think so much of Kansas are
so little of Missouri.
Speaker 4 (37:57):
I like the way Kansas the rest of their group.
I don't think it's good enough to you know, reach
the heights they would like to without Peterson, but I
haven't impressed how much they've improved. You know, after the
first few games, I said right here, I didn't think
that group was good enough. But I think they found
something in Vegas. They played tough. Now they're they're limited.
We saw that in the last game. But I think
(38:17):
their toughness is you know, Missouri in Case State, it's
like watching the same team. I mean, Missouri's better, but
you're still guard defense optional.
