The Hokies took a trip down to Atlanta and came away with their first conference win since Week 1. We look at how a more efficient offense and a steady defense helped the Hokies put together a desperately needed victory.
1
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,400
Welcome back to the boundary
Corner podcast.
2
00:00:49,500 --> 00:00:53,800
I'm Curtis Wilson, I'm Brian
Siegel buddy, we are a only
3
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:58,600
Monday afternoon only perfect
fall Monday afternoon.
4
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,500
I stepped outside is like 66
degrees a little breeze.
5
00:01:04,599 --> 00:01:07,900
The leaves are turning its fall,
whether it's perfect.
6
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,300
This is what we live for.
This is what we live.
7
00:01:11,300 --> 00:01:13,500
Oh, it's so true.
It this week's going to be like
8
00:01:13,500 --> 00:01:15,800
great and I think the next few
weeks are going to be great.
9
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:21,800
Like that little delayed this
week guys, with Halloween Brown
10
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:26,400
was out of town and I really
didn't get kind of settled down
11
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:31,800
until about 9:15 last night.
So We made a call like yeah,
12
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,100
we're not gonna be able to do
this on Halloween night.
13
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,200
Yeah shout out my wife who said
y'all sure y'all can pull this
14
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,100
off on Halloween night like
yeah, we got it.
15
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,900
She's been good.
We don't got it.
16
00:01:46,900 --> 00:01:51,000
All worked out, gave us a little
time to review the Georgia Tech
17
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,100
game again and how was
trick-or-treating Brian
18
00:01:55,700 --> 00:01:58,500
approximately.
How many pounds did your your
19
00:01:58,500 --> 00:02:02,300
kiddo bring home?
Probably a good two to three,
20
00:02:02,300 --> 00:02:03,800
man.
I didn't I didn't put the scale
21
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,700
on it but he made a good.
We had a good lap around my
22
00:02:07,700 --> 00:02:14,000
in-laws neighborhood.
They had a lot of fire pits out
23
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,100
last night so that a lot of
people sitting out in the
24
00:02:16,100 --> 00:02:19,200
driveway with the fire pits.
Just watching the kids run
25
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,700
around.
It was a good time.
26
00:02:21,700 --> 00:02:23,600
It was a good time and we did
not we knocked it out in about
27
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,000
an hour and then we headed on
home.
28
00:02:26,900 --> 00:02:27,600
Bye.
You guys.
29
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,400
Very nice.
I would say somewhere between
30
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:33,300
five and six Did a little
something here at the house with
31
00:02:33,300 --> 00:02:36,600
the neighbors and walked around
the neighborhood to a point.
32
00:02:36,700 --> 00:02:39,900
And I told Brian, we were
getting down this bigger Street
33
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:42,900
in our neighborhood, and we hit
like four houses consecutive.
34
00:02:42,900 --> 00:02:45,800
There were like no candy.
We're out.
35
00:02:45,900 --> 00:02:48,300
We're out.
So clearly, what covid did was
36
00:02:48,300 --> 00:02:53,000
throw people into thinking, they
could buy one bag of candy in a
37
00:02:53,008 --> 00:02:58,300
big neighborhood.
Nope, so definite failure there,
38
00:02:58,300 --> 00:03:02,500
but we've got enough candy.
D2 easily last us until next
39
00:03:02,500 --> 00:03:05,600
Halloween which is always the
goal putting the candy bin.
40
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:10,000
And yeah is that other courts
still doing like kind of like
41
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:14,700
the pre trick-or-treat stuff
anymore or is that they didn't
42
00:03:14,700 --> 00:03:17,700
this year whenever they're
looking for the corn maze, they
43
00:03:17,700 --> 00:03:21,400
did not have it this year but
you know, it's a change in
44
00:03:21,408 --> 00:03:24,100
Dynamic.
You came over a few years ago
45
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:27,400
and it was their kids were a
little younger and now their
46
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:32,200
kids are getting a little older.
So, It's an ever-changing
47
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,400
Dynamic, but we had a great time
with our folks and had some
48
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:40,000
pizza and some drinks and then
all went out together, strong,
49
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,700
that about 100 100 yards long
from one end to the other.
50
00:03:44,300 --> 00:03:45,800
There you go.
All right.
51
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,100
Well, Brian we snap the streak,
buddy.
52
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,500
We did, dude.
Hokies that one won.
53
00:03:54,500 --> 00:03:56,300
We won.
We won 11.
54
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,300
Brown was right about Georgia
Tech.
55
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:05,500
Again, Brian is now like, two
for two on Georgia Tech calls in
56
00:04:05,500 --> 00:04:07,400
the last.
Here we go, here we go.
57
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:13,200
Um, but yeah 26:17 when I was
getting out of getting out of a
58
00:04:13,208 --> 00:04:17,200
little baseball as the game was
ending and had people like, oh,
59
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,399
not and I looked at it,
nine-point lie about three
60
00:04:20,399 --> 00:04:25,700
minutes left, and you just kind
of look like again, seriously,
61
00:04:25,700 --> 00:04:32,800
it's going to happen again, but
it didn't the Guys held on 4 and
62
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:37,800
4.
Now you know 2 and 2 2 and 2 in
63
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:43,200
the ACC get to into in the ACC
Coastal not completely, the ACC
64
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,100
Championship game, which is
going to be whoever's in there.
65
00:04:47,100 --> 00:04:51,100
It's going to be a show, let's
just sit, this is going to be
66
00:04:51,100 --> 00:04:54,600
the weirdest year overall man
because especially when they
67
00:04:55,500 --> 00:04:57,900
like Atlantic.
It's not looking great.
68
00:04:57,900 --> 00:05:00,300
Other than Wake Forest Lake
Forest has had a couple.
69
00:05:00,500 --> 00:05:06,500
Cares even in there and you
know, obviously Clemson it in,
70
00:05:06,500 --> 00:05:08,300
who we thought they'd be this
year.
71
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:09,700
They're not.
You look at you.
72
00:05:09,700 --> 00:05:14,600
Look at the coastal.
You know, you got UNC who
73
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,300
definitely isn't who we thought
they were.
74
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:21,600
Oh no, you got Miami starting to
Surge a little bit after kind of
75
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,000
falling behind.
Yeah.
76
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,800
And then you got pit finally
taking a loss in the in the
77
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,300
coastal there.
You know, what can they do?
78
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,900
Due to right?
The ship to make sure they keep
79
00:05:32,900 --> 00:05:35,800
the advantage, they have.
Oh yeah, it's going to be the
80
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,700
next month and that's where
we're sitting at.
81
00:05:37,700 --> 00:05:42,200
We're sitting at one month away
from, you know, essentially the
82
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,400
end of the regular season it's
going to be wild.
83
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,500
Again, this it's more and more
looking like 2007, another top
84
00:05:48,500 --> 00:05:51,500
10 team goes down, who was in
the running for the Big 10 in
85
00:05:51,500 --> 00:05:53,300
Iowa.
Not only did they go down, they
86
00:05:53,300 --> 00:05:55,600
got absolutely white by
Wisconsin.
87
00:05:56,100 --> 00:05:58,200
Yeah, drug.
That's Wisconsin's looked all
88
00:05:58,200 --> 00:05:59,000
year.
It is.
89
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,900
So it's like this.
Get it's every week, it happens.
90
00:06:02,900 --> 00:06:07,300
It's a little more 2007, so
can't I can't wait to see the
91
00:06:07,300 --> 00:06:08,900
next month.
Especially me.
92
00:06:08,900 --> 00:06:12,000
And Brian are kind of doing love
our kids playing sports and
93
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,600
everything, but it's kind of
like it's over very soon.
94
00:06:17,300 --> 00:06:21,100
We two games two games, two
games, one game.
95
00:06:21,300 --> 00:06:23,000
All right, well let's start
here, Brian.
96
00:06:23,100 --> 00:06:25,400
Let's start, let's look at the
offensive performance because
97
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,100
once again, we know the deal,
just a Wednesday's been in that
98
00:06:28,100 --> 00:06:30,300
room more and more over the last
couple weeks.
99
00:06:30,300 --> 00:06:33,500
Weeks.
And what do we say last week?
100
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,200
What do we say that?
The number one point of this
101
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,100
version, that we were going to,
what had to be done.
102
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,200
Feed the beast, and did they
ever Feed the Bees between
103
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:50,200
Malachi Thomas and He-Man 39
carries 186 yards. 4.8 per
104
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:54,300
carry, not the five, we like,
but a heck of a lot better than
105
00:06:54,300 --> 00:06:58,200
the 3.7 we've been averaging and
Brian.
106
00:06:58,500 --> 00:07:00,200
Would you see out of Malachi
man?
107
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,800
That like like that makes you
think he's the real deal.
108
00:07:05,300 --> 00:07:08,200
I tell you the thing that
impresses me most about him is
109
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,000
that he goes out there and
there's not really a negative
110
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,500
play in his game, he's always
getting yardage.
111
00:07:14,500 --> 00:07:18,200
He has good Vision.
Between the tackles when he gets
112
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,900
to the second level, he can make
guys mess and he just does a
113
00:07:21,900 --> 00:07:25,500
good job of not getting you
behind the sticks.
114
00:07:25,700 --> 00:07:27,500
He's not going to dance the
backfield.
115
00:07:27,500 --> 00:07:30,800
He's not going to you know
search for the whole he's going
116
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,600
to find.
What's their get upfield?
117
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,300
Get north and south and then try
to To make a guy Miss.
118
00:07:37,300 --> 00:07:40,900
So and think that's the big
thing and some of it is rubbing
119
00:07:40,900 --> 00:07:46,000
off on on him.
His yards per carry the last two
120
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,700
games are significantly better
than his yards per carry for the
121
00:07:49,700 --> 00:07:53,600
season.
He was like 5.8 on Saturday and
122
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,200
I mean he had that big, you
know, 25 + yd run that set up
123
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,300
some things.
He caught a couple passes for a
124
00:08:00,300 --> 00:08:04,000
few yards that again.
Even if they don't go anywhere,
125
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:09,400
it's that element of you.
Must defend this with Rahim and
126
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,900
you know, you got your, you've
got to meet, you got your 12 and
127
00:08:13,900 --> 00:08:18,200
you got your want to have some
diversity and it again I think
128
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:19,800
we still want to see what both
of them on the field.
129
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:25,500
At the same time, I saw a play
that was used with with the
130
00:08:25,500 --> 00:08:27,900
Wayne Loft and it caught my eye.
I don't know if you caught this
131
00:08:27,900 --> 00:08:31,400
was on one of the runs they
motioned to Wayne into the back
132
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,799
Field behind the running back,
snap the ball.
133
00:08:34,799 --> 00:08:38,200
It's a Old triple option plays
what it is, except you're using
134
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:42,200
a wide receiver, basically read
it Braxton.
135
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,600
Let It Go, but he pulled it and
had the option to go to a little
136
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,800
power option, right?
And if you tell me, you put
137
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,700
Rahim on the field and line them
up wide and then motion him,
138
00:08:50,700 --> 00:08:54,100
it's even more diversity because
if you're doing that, you're
139
00:08:54,100 --> 00:08:59,600
probably in a two tight end set.
You know, you're in some sort of
140
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,000
set where you're getting
potentially a linebacker on him
141
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,400
and to say, you're going to try
to chase the edge with that.
142
00:09:05,500 --> 00:09:09,900
I'd love to see that play ran,
let me ask this Prime because,
143
00:09:09,900 --> 00:09:12,800
you know, we're getting better.
We're seeing the runs.
144
00:09:13,700 --> 00:09:17,200
Is there anything else we need
to see from this room or any one
145
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,600
else.
We need to see from this room to
146
00:09:18,608 --> 00:09:21,900
maybe make it a perfect
complementary room.
147
00:09:23,500 --> 00:09:26,600
I think at this point, the thing
I'd like to see is maybe more
148
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,700
targeting the running back in
the passing game on passes that
149
00:09:29,700 --> 00:09:34,400
aren't screens.
So, we know the screen games
150
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,500
there.
Yes, it's had had success here
151
00:09:37,500 --> 00:09:40,500
and there, not not unanimous
success, right?
152
00:09:40,500 --> 00:09:44,700
It's had some, some negative
plays and things like that based
153
00:09:44,700 --> 00:09:49,900
on when the, when the calls were
made and things like that, but I
154
00:09:49,900 --> 00:09:52,600
want to see the running backs
get involved in the actual
155
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,500
passing game and some of that is
putting some of those damned
156
00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:59,500
check Downs in this offense,
where they can get the ball in
157
00:09:59,500 --> 00:10:02,000
space when the primary and
secondary.
158
00:10:02,100 --> 00:10:07,200
Secondary options are covered
and let them try to break a
159
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,800
tackle, get up field, get the
first down, maybe bust a big
160
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,500
play.
We haven't really seen that.
161
00:10:12,500 --> 00:10:15,100
There was some of that early in
the season.
162
00:10:16,100 --> 00:10:19,200
We haven't really seen them.
Put those elements back in the
163
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,000
offense since then.
But if we can get some of that
164
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,100
in there where we can get these
guys in space a little bit more,
165
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,500
I think that would pay some
dividends but I tell you one
166
00:10:30,500 --> 00:10:34,100
thing that has been put back
Into the offense a little bit is
167
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:38,900
some actual quarterback reads.
Yes, there were numerous read
168
00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:43,300
options on Saturday and that
definitely helped open up the
169
00:10:43,300 --> 00:10:48,800
offense, especially inside the
tackles for Raheem and Malachi
170
00:10:49,300 --> 00:10:52,500
and you know, be behaving solid
running game on Saturday 48
171
00:10:52,500 --> 00:10:55,500
yards on 11 carries.
So you know right at four and a
172
00:10:55,508 --> 00:10:59,400
half a carry that's adjusted he
did take a few sacks that might
173
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:03,600
not have been great and There
were a couple times he pulled it
174
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,600
when he should have.
Let it go the most and I think,
175
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,100
the reason he let it go, cuz he
thought he could wiggle away
176
00:11:10,100 --> 00:11:12,900
from the defensive end that was
late in the third quarter.
177
00:11:12,900 --> 00:11:17,100
I think he doesn't pull it holds
it and the guys like right right
178
00:11:17,100 --> 00:11:20,000
in front of him, and you see him
wiggle and the guy just like
179
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,400
stands.
Like, you know, I'm not buying
180
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,300
into the not taking that fake.
Got about six yard loss and I
181
00:11:26,300 --> 00:11:31,600
tell you between that and then
the scrambles, which we had seen
182
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,100
earlier.
In the season and you talked
183
00:11:33,100 --> 00:11:35,500
about Brian the whole time the
offense.
184
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,900
Is not doing the best because of
Braxton, but the all sense is
185
00:11:40,900 --> 00:11:44,100
also not doing the worst because
of Braxton and we're seeing it
186
00:11:44,100 --> 00:11:49,000
more and more and, you know, for
him he had a pretty solid game.
187
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,000
You know, close to 250 yard,
passing couple, touchdowns, 64%
188
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,600
completions but let's talk about
the offensive line before we get
189
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,100
into the passing game, I did not
know this.
190
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,300
I have not seen anything, it had
not been any buzz, but Luke to
191
00:12:03,300 --> 00:12:08,100
Noodle was out on Saturday.
I never heard the Reasonings or
192
00:12:08,100 --> 00:12:11,300
read the reasoning, but he was
out and they had to get Nick.
193
00:12:11,300 --> 00:12:13,600
He got nicked against Syracuse,
okay?
194
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,900
But I didn't think you.
It was one report isn't a game.
195
00:12:16,900 --> 00:12:18,200
Yeah.
I didn't think was a missing a
196
00:12:18,208 --> 00:12:23,600
start situation so but you know,
Silas filled in did a pretty
197
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,900
admirable job there.
But the person I was more
198
00:12:26,900 --> 00:12:31,000
impressed with was Parker
Clements starting at right.
199
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,800
Tackle probably had his best
game of his career.
200
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,200
I know it's still a young
career.
201
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,600
Here it is.
But getting him on the field and
202
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,900
actually having a game you know
fish and be damned here, having
203
00:12:42,900 --> 00:12:47,600
a having a game where he looks
like you know if he keeps
204
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,300
progressing that he could be
that guy at least at right
205
00:12:50,300 --> 00:12:54,600
tackle right now.
If not you know potentially left
206
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,800
tackle some time in the future
that that's that's a good thing.
207
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,000
Getting a guy out there and
getting them some quality snaps
208
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,200
and seeing them show it on the
field.
209
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,900
Yet that that's a positive take.
Way, you know, outside of the
210
00:13:07,900 --> 00:13:09,900
outcome that you had getting the
win.
211
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,300
Exactly.
Oh, the other thing is, you
212
00:13:12,300 --> 00:13:15,300
might be the only offensive line
than that has ever got called
213
00:13:15,300 --> 00:13:19,100
for holding when he himself was
being held on the screen pass.
214
00:13:19,100 --> 00:13:22,900
Like like there's not that that
happened to me against
215
00:13:22,900 --> 00:13:27,000
Bridgewater back in 2004.
So if that's the second
216
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,400
documented time, ever second
document of time a offensive
217
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,100
lineman is literally getting
held so they can't set up a
218
00:13:33,100 --> 00:13:37,200
screens.
So the Defensive players,
219
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,800
essentially is defensive holding
in some way and he gets called
220
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,000
it sets us back, 10 yards.
But yeah.
221
00:13:46,700 --> 00:13:48,900
Let me ask this problem.
Obviously, there were some
222
00:13:48,900 --> 00:13:51,200
changes if Luke comes back next
week.
223
00:13:52,500 --> 00:13:54,700
Do you do you think it's Parker
it right?
224
00:13:54,700 --> 00:13:58,100
Or do you think, do you think
Vice sticks to his or going to
225
00:13:58,100 --> 00:14:01,700
continue to rotate?
That's hard to say because
226
00:14:01,700 --> 00:14:06,400
obviously, you know, Silas did
fairly well as well, you know,
227
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:11,200
there were, there were some, I'd
say Silas didn't do any worse
228
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,000
and I've seen two new to do most
of the Season, okay?
229
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,700
So I think not seeing a drop
off, there is a positive
230
00:14:17,700 --> 00:14:20,600
outcome.
Again, we weren't playing the
231
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,000
level of competition.
At the defensive line that we
232
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,300
probably played throughout the
year.
233
00:14:26,300 --> 00:14:29,400
Very true.
So you got to take some of this
234
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:35,300
with a grain of salt but You
still got to play who's in front
235
00:14:35,300 --> 00:14:36,300
of you.
And if you go out there and
236
00:14:36,308 --> 00:14:39,700
handle your business regardless
of who it's against, I'll say
237
00:14:39,700 --> 00:14:43,000
this, they look better than they
looked against Middle,
238
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,600
Tennessee, and Richmond.
So, and I think Georgia Tech
239
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,400
brings more to the table than
Middle Tennessee and Richmond.
240
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,500
So I'll take that, I'll take
that.
241
00:14:54,100 --> 00:14:56,800
I will too.
I still goes back.
242
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,000
I still go back to what you
always say, put your best five
243
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,600
out there and the way we've seen
Parker play the last few weeks.
244
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:06,900
He, He might be one of the
better 5, all the changing
245
00:15:06,900 --> 00:15:10,900
inside that offensive room.
You're kind of saying we're
246
00:15:10,900 --> 00:15:13,800
seeing more positive than we are
- we're seeing the line.
247
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,800
Play with more fire.
We're seeing them play better as
248
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,700
a unit.
You know, there have been times
249
00:15:19,700 --> 00:15:22,900
it felt like early in the season
where we were, was it looked
250
00:15:22,900 --> 00:15:26,100
like this side of the line, felt
the plate.
251
00:15:26,100 --> 00:15:29,500
This side of the line did feel
the play and the next thing, you
252
00:15:29,500 --> 00:15:32,000
know, something bad happens.
So yep.
253
00:15:32,900 --> 00:15:35,800
But again, in a positive
direction on the line, now let's
254
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,100
flip over to the passing game in
Lowndes.
255
00:15:39,100 --> 00:15:42,500
Big part down.
We gave up a couple sacks in
256
00:15:42,500 --> 00:15:44,100
Bryant and you've been preaching
it.
257
00:15:44,100 --> 00:15:46,100
You've been slamming your hand
on the table.
258
00:15:46,300 --> 00:15:48,100
We finally got it.
We had some short.
259
00:15:48,100 --> 00:15:51,700
We had some good intermediate
routes, we have some screens and
260
00:15:51,700 --> 00:15:53,800
then we sprinkled in some down
field passes.
261
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,800
That actually worked.
How shocked were you that?
262
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,000
Like what you've been banging?
They finally did.
263
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,800
And we saw every, I mean, what
did Peter?
264
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,500
But twice, maybe three times
when we moved the ball, just
265
00:16:06,500 --> 00:16:09,300
about every yeah.
Yeah, we were moving the ball.
266
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,300
Every Drive, even in the second
half.
267
00:16:11,300 --> 00:16:14,800
We only got six points but we
were still having success.
268
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,200
We just a lot of times either
shot ourselves in the foot,
269
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,600
whether it was a player with the
penalty or whether it was, you
270
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,600
know, a bad call at a bad time.
We really only had one one
271
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:30,700
series, I think in the second
half that was truly awful and
272
00:16:30,700 --> 00:16:36,500
we'll address that here shortly.
But yeah, it was definitely a
273
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:41,600
more focused attempt at getting
the passing game going.
274
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,700
So I like that that that that's
that's another positive, take
275
00:16:45,700 --> 00:16:48,700
away from this when they focused
effort to get The Passing game
276
00:16:48,700 --> 00:16:52,900
going and the big beneficiary of
that was Trey Turner.
277
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:59,900
Oh my God was he man his career
day. 74, 187 and a touch throw
278
00:16:59,900 --> 00:17:03,900
in the Ville Jet Sweep, egapp
194 One total yards from
279
00:17:03,900 --> 00:17:08,599
scrimmage and the display.
And the first one was mostly
280
00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:11,500
him.
It was him, it wasn't, it was a
281
00:17:11,500 --> 00:17:13,599
good design.
Yeah.
282
00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:18,200
Go back and watch, and if you
watch what it is, it's a it's a
283
00:17:18,208 --> 00:17:23,200
combo screen.
Post will route, Caleb and him.
284
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,200
Look like they're going to go
into stock block.
285
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,500
And essentially, if the guys lay
off which they did or, they
286
00:17:29,500 --> 00:17:32,500
actually came up, they run their
routes very well.
287
00:17:32,500 --> 00:17:35,800
Design concept Braxton.
Put it short.
288
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,900
If he puts it on the money Trail
runs down, the sideline doesn't
289
00:17:38,900 --> 00:17:42,600
have to make any moves.
He put it to him short which we
290
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:47,700
know is a big problem, you know,
one of his bad-looking passes of
291
00:17:47,700 --> 00:17:51,400
the day that worked out.
But tail on that run, man.
292
00:17:53,300 --> 00:17:58,100
So many elements.
Yeah, yeah.
293
00:17:58,100 --> 00:18:01,100
I mean he broke a tackle, he
dragged got in the end zone.
294
00:18:01,100 --> 00:18:03,600
I mean it was, it was a big, big
play for him.
295
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,500
And then that kind of really got
the kind of got everything going
296
00:18:08,500 --> 00:18:10,700
right.
Like from that point on yeah, in
297
00:18:10,700 --> 00:18:15,200
the first half the offense was
pretty much clicking and really
298
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,100
only got stopped at one time
where there was a couple of
299
00:18:18,108 --> 00:18:22,700
penalties set us back into a
long down and situation.
300
00:18:22,900 --> 00:18:24,800
It's true.
Yeah.
301
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:29,600
And you you already said it a
little bit but Extend having one
302
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:35,100
of his better days throwing the
ball in terms of statistics, but
303
00:18:35,100 --> 00:18:38,300
a lot of the routine throws are
still looking a little wonky,
304
00:18:38,300 --> 00:18:41,700
right?
What the ones that look wonky or
305
00:18:41,900 --> 00:18:45,600
is the ones that are getting
about 20 yards downfield, right?
306
00:18:45,700 --> 00:18:49,100
Trace pass.
The one that I remember was the
307
00:18:49,100 --> 00:18:51,500
first three and out where it was
like a little comeback route
308
00:18:51,500 --> 00:18:55,700
about 15 yards and he put it
short and you're sitting there
309
00:18:55,700 --> 00:18:57,100
because it was a really good
design.
310
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,900
In a really good call and he
puts it short.
311
00:19:00,100 --> 00:19:04,500
Batavia on Robinson.
Touchdown that ball wobbled and
312
00:19:04,500 --> 00:19:06,600
took forever kid.
Get there.
313
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,900
I know it was a rollout so I
don't expect it to be perfect.
314
00:19:10,900 --> 00:19:12,400
But you know, that's one of
those things.
315
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,900
You feel like a middle school
quarterback to make a better
316
00:19:15,900 --> 00:19:19,700
looking faster than that.
At least a high school
317
00:19:19,700 --> 00:19:22,500
quarterback, most of them, at
least somebody.
318
00:19:23,100 --> 00:19:26,800
Yeah, it's going to be
interesting to see how this goes
319
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:32,700
forward and I think a lot of
that's going to depend on how
320
00:19:32,700 --> 00:19:34,900
the next couple games go.
Absolutely.
321
00:19:35,300 --> 00:19:38,400
Because I think at the next
couple games don't go, well, I
322
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:44,300
think we see Tosh you have to
and then we'll see how that
323
00:19:44,300 --> 00:19:47,300
goes.
You know, thankfully one of
324
00:19:47,308 --> 00:19:50,200
those games, the coming up and
we're going to talk about that
325
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:54,800
more on Wednesday but we're
playing a team that doesn't put
326
00:19:54,800 --> 00:20:01,500
up a ton of points so we did
More than likely knock on wood,
327
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,700
it shouldn't eat a ton of points
for that to be a w but we'll
328
00:20:05,700 --> 00:20:07,900
see.
Well say we know how things
329
00:20:07,900 --> 00:20:11,800
break how crazy it is.
The one thing that sort of drove
330
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,400
me and you crazy Brian and
continues to drive us.
331
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:21,000
Crazy is some of the third down
calls because they literally
332
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:26,000
look like a coin flip call.
It's okay, you know there's been
333
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,500
times we criticized for being
concerned. - yeah, we're going
334
00:20:28,500 --> 00:20:36,000
to criticize for that, but then
there's times where being hyper
335
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,900
aggressive is idiotic,
especially the way we're running
336
00:20:39,900 --> 00:20:43,400
the ball.
Well, there's being aggressive
337
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,300
then there's being
unnecessarily, aggressive or
338
00:20:46,300 --> 00:20:50,200
recklessly aggressive, right?
I'm going to point out, we
339
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:51,700
always talk about calculated
risk.
340
00:20:51,700 --> 00:20:54,600
We don't, we don't talk about
going out there and, you know,
341
00:20:54,608 --> 00:20:57,800
just throwing balls to the wall
and and seeing what happens when
342
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,100
you talk about taking calculated
risk, understanding the
343
00:21:01,100 --> 00:21:06,700
situation and where risk-taking
is beneficial for your team or
344
00:21:06,700 --> 00:21:09,600
where Ben are taking a risk.
Doesn't necessarily hurt you if
345
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,100
you don't get it.
Yep.
346
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:16,200
And Talk about third down in one
after a team, just cuts it 2-1
347
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:20,500
score and you're taking a
30-yard shot.
348
00:21:20,500 --> 00:21:24,800
Downfield with the quarterback
that has struggled to throw
349
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:29,600
routine balls all game.
Yep, it just it didn't seem
350
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:34,100
like, the right time you had had
success, you know, in that 10 to
351
00:21:34,100 --> 00:21:39,700
15, yard range, most of the
game, even when Braxton's not
352
00:21:40,300 --> 00:21:42,700
exactly throwing the Is spiral
the ball.
353
00:21:42,700 --> 00:21:44,600
Still getting there in that
range?
354
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:50,900
Why are we taking not just the
risk with the ball potentially
355
00:21:50,900 --> 00:21:54,400
but the risk of giving the team
that has a little bit of
356
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:58,700
momentum now giving the ball
back after after a quick three
357
00:21:58,700 --> 00:21:59,500
and out.
Right?
358
00:21:59,500 --> 00:22:01,500
Absolutely.
And that's why I called them.
359
00:22:01,500 --> 00:22:04,400
That's why I put it on here,
coin flips, because you don't
360
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:05,900
know what you're going to get in
that situation.
361
00:22:05,900 --> 00:22:08,900
Third and one, especially after
they scored, is you want to slow
362
00:22:08,900 --> 00:22:10,800
that momentum.
And the way we had ran the ball
363
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,900
with Braxton.
Malachi with Rahim, even ranging
364
00:22:13,900 --> 00:22:18,000
running the jet Suite, we were
getting positive plays, we were
365
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,900
getting positive place so it's
one of those.
366
00:22:19,900 --> 00:22:22,400
Why not run it?
Where I got more frustrated with
367
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:23,800
it.
Brian is there were some plays
368
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:30,100
like third and 14, you know,
we're we're running inside, you
369
00:22:30,100 --> 00:22:35,500
know, inside zone or run a QB
draw versus okay.
370
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,200
That is the plate.
Take the risk.
371
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,000
That is the place.
Go downfield.
372
00:22:39,100 --> 00:22:40,700
If you miss it.
Oh, well, we're putting anyway.
373
00:22:40,700 --> 00:22:43,900
If you hit it.
Great, if you if they pick it
374
00:22:43,900 --> 00:22:46,400
well you're probably going to
put it about where they'd get
375
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,000
the ball but then but then
there's this whole side where
376
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,900
there were some plays where it
was stirred and you know, 10 12,
377
00:22:53,900 --> 00:22:58,100
we ran like some quick slant,
some quick passes one screen
378
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,400
where it was like I like that
call there.
379
00:23:02,100 --> 00:23:05,100
Yeah I like that call there
because you're getting in your
380
00:23:05,100 --> 00:23:10,300
playmaker somewhere between five
and eight yards, if there is
381
00:23:10,300 --> 00:23:14,500
one, missed tackle.
Like, it's the, it's the, it's
382
00:23:14,500 --> 00:23:19,400
the Taylor Robinson Mastery of
the inside screen.
383
00:23:20,100 --> 00:23:22,700
Yeah.
And we talked about all the
384
00:23:22,700 --> 00:23:25,000
time, right?
So, if you're going to throw the
385
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:29,900
ball short of the line to game,
it's got to be a ball.
386
00:23:29,900 --> 00:23:31,700
That gets your guys in space,
right?
387
00:23:31,700 --> 00:23:34,100
You can't, you can't just be
something where, you know,
388
00:23:34,100 --> 00:23:37,100
you're slamming, slamming the
ball against the line of
389
00:23:37,100 --> 00:23:39,800
scrimmage, and hoping that it
squirts out on the other side
390
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,200
for a big game.
Uh-huh.
391
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,200
Again it's this whole it's
literally he's taking the coin,
392
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,000
he's flipping it on starting 15.
I'm just going to run the ball
393
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,600
here.
All its third and one let me go
394
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:53,500
deep.
I like logic with my play
395
00:23:53,500 --> 00:23:59,400
calling, not just this might
work here and in my logic
396
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,900
doesn't mean predictable logic
just means.
397
00:24:02,300 --> 00:24:06,500
Okay, this makes sense given the
risk reward of the of the moment
398
00:24:06,500 --> 00:24:08,700
of the down and distance of the
situation.
399
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,000
Third, and one, if you tell me,
we're going to pass the ball,
400
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,700
we're going to run.
A three yard out.
401
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,200
We're going to run a little fake
inside Zone and on a 3-yard out,
402
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,500
we're going to try to put it
front shoulder to catch the
403
00:24:18,500 --> 00:24:22,500
ball, perfect sense.
It's a quick developing play or
404
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,100
think about the Gallo play that
he dropped a couple days ago.
405
00:24:25,100 --> 00:24:27,200
That was quick run.
He went and hooked up what?
406
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,400
Three and a half yards on the
third and two play.
407
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,900
He dropped it.
Unfortunately, but that's okay.
408
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,500
That logic makes sense.
Yeah.
409
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,500
All right, let's roll on how he
was.
410
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:43,700
We're special teams Saturday to
winning that game and I mean, I
411
00:24:43,700 --> 00:24:47,600
mean, especially Parker Roma.
I mean, and he's, he's really
412
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,900
getting to the point where I
mean, he is an absolute weapon
413
00:24:50,900 --> 00:24:56,500
for us is, you know, short short
of the, the to missed short ones
414
00:24:56,500 --> 00:24:59,400
chip chip shots early in the
season, which he's correct.
415
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,700
Yeah, he's grumpy, he's been
absolute money.
416
00:25:03,300 --> 00:25:08,000
And, you know, I'm not going to
knock him for missing, the one
417
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:13,900
he missed because he had, he had
Plus 50 had the leg slightly to
418
00:25:13,900 --> 00:25:17,600
the left.
So can I mean I'll take it and
419
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,700
you can knock the call to take
the kick there to take the
420
00:25:20,700 --> 00:25:25,300
points more than you.
Do him missing it and he and you
421
00:25:25,300 --> 00:25:27,700
don't knock it to Bunch because
he's shown, he's got the leg and
422
00:25:27,700 --> 00:25:30,100
he's more or less.
Got the accuracy to make it from
423
00:25:30,100 --> 00:25:32,300
there.
It's just, I mean that's that's
424
00:25:32,300 --> 00:25:35,600
a coin flip call that you gotta,
you know, note take that take
425
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,300
the risk if you want the points
or take the risk, if you don't
426
00:25:38,300 --> 00:25:40,700
get the points, you're giving up
the field position and you know
427
00:25:40,700 --> 00:25:43,600
what it is.
Spots to the 48-yard urchin in
428
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,900
the first half, you know,
playing Tempo getting in range
429
00:25:47,900 --> 00:25:51,200
and then kicking it through
like, that, that takes some
430
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,300
nerves.
So, yeah, he's one of those
431
00:25:53,300 --> 00:25:55,600
guys, you feel, if you get in a
situation late, the way he's
432
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,000
been kicking.
It can work.
433
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,600
Yeah.
Peter Moore again, you know, I'm
434
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,300
team.
He's got boom.
435
00:26:04,100 --> 00:26:08,300
He's got touch when I say touch.
If you he's trying to pin, you
436
00:26:08,500 --> 00:26:11,400
he puts the wedge.
If he gets the distant control,
437
00:26:11,500 --> 00:26:12,500
Right?
And it lands on the one.
438
00:26:12,500 --> 00:26:14,800
It's coming back.
So it's not rolling into the end
439
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,100
zone and the accuracy to the
sideline.
440
00:26:17,100 --> 00:26:21,600
I mean, he's 18 and if he can
envelop, you get bigger and get
441
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,300
his leg even stronger than what
it is.
442
00:26:23,900 --> 00:26:27,100
He's going to be on an NFL team
and for 25 years, without a
443
00:26:27,100 --> 00:26:30,100
towel.
Yeah, he's already at where most
444
00:26:30,100 --> 00:26:32,300
second-year kickers are the real
good.
445
00:26:32,300 --> 00:26:33,300
Second York.
Yes.
446
00:26:34,500 --> 00:26:37,200
So if he can continue that
trajectory that's going to be
447
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,600
big for him, that's going to put
him in NFL conversations.
448
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,000
So that's going to be huge and I
like to see it.
449
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,000
I like out the gate that, you
know, special teams.
450
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,300
We had two big question marks
coming into the season in the
451
00:26:51,300 --> 00:26:53,500
kicking game.
And both of those have been,
452
00:26:54,100 --> 00:26:56,800
definitely more more assets than
they've been liabilities the
453
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:01,300
whole year abso-freakin'-lutely,
and we always talk about hidden
454
00:27:01,300 --> 00:27:04,000
yardage.
We talk about it with Romo, 10
455
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,700
yardage there because you're
getting the points.
456
00:27:05,700 --> 00:27:08,900
When you're not expected more,
pending people deep Taylor
457
00:27:08,900 --> 00:27:12,800
Robinson is another, just he He
eats into net punting average is
458
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,000
anytime.
He gets his hands on the ball
459
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,500
and this week, he had 31 total
yards.
460
00:27:18,500 --> 00:27:19,900
He had a little seven yard run
that.
461
00:27:19,900 --> 00:27:21,900
I think he started like at the
24.
462
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:26,000
He got it over the 30 and then
he had the big 24-yard run that
463
00:27:26,100 --> 00:27:27,900
really helped with field
position.
464
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:33,000
It would not surprise me if the
next month would not surprise
465
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,300
me.
Is if they said just don't kick
466
00:27:36,300 --> 00:27:38,700
it to him, he's a risk to take
it to the house.
467
00:27:38,700 --> 00:27:41,200
He always eats into our net
punt.
468
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,100
You know, aim at 10 to 12 yards,
short, and angle.
469
00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:47,300
It will deal.
Will will will will control the
470
00:27:47,300 --> 00:27:49,500
outcome of the situation.
Yeah.
471
00:27:49,500 --> 00:27:51,800
Where he can't get the ball in
his hand to potentially make a
472
00:27:51,808 --> 00:27:53,600
big one.
Absolutely.
473
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:54,700
Absolutely.
Yeah.
474
00:27:54,700 --> 00:27:59,300
He's definitely out there,
helping us maintain that field
475
00:27:59,300 --> 00:28:02,800
position.
So now we got Pretty good
476
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,700
returns.
We've had pretty good returns
477
00:28:04,700 --> 00:28:06,300
all year.
I know King was doing a lot
478
00:28:06,300 --> 00:28:07,800
better when he was healthy, get
them.
479
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,100
But the return game has been
been good in the kickoffs.
480
00:28:11,100 --> 00:28:15,100
Tay Rob has been excellent on
punt return, especially for a
481
00:28:15,100 --> 00:28:18,100
unit that last year was played
by Bluffs.
482
00:28:18,500 --> 00:28:22,200
Off my hand and not really able
to find a guy that could be a
483
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,700
constant back there, to Rob has
stepped up this year and not
484
00:28:25,700 --> 00:28:31,500
just eliminated that aspect of
it but become a big asset in
485
00:28:31,500 --> 00:28:34,100
terms.
Of helping with field position
486
00:28:34,700 --> 00:28:37,500
and yet the kicker's doing their
thing, man.
487
00:28:37,500 --> 00:28:40,500
I mean, it's been a, it's been a
solid effort on special teams.
488
00:28:40,500 --> 00:28:45,100
So shout out to the our
coordinator Chavez there and
489
00:28:45,700 --> 00:28:47,700
just doing a good job.
Absolutely.
490
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:49,300
Get these guys are ready for
game day.
491
00:28:49,500 --> 00:28:51,500
Absolutely.
All right, Brian before we turn
492
00:28:51,500 --> 00:28:53,300
it over to the defensive side of
the ball.
493
00:28:53,500 --> 00:28:56,700

Dash report.
Now back to the episode All
502
00:29:25,900 --> 00:29:27,400
right.
Brian a tale.
503
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,400
As old as time for any Virginia
Tech defense, running
504
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,500
quarterbacks.
And all those Sims didn't quite
505
00:29:34,500 --> 00:29:39,300
do what Schrader did, we're what
the guy for Notre Dame?
506
00:29:39,300 --> 00:29:43,100
Did he still had a solid day?
11 carries 60-yard.
507
00:29:43,100 --> 00:29:44,800
We've been sacked him a couple
times into that.
508
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:49,600
So he's probably true.
Carrie was probably probably
509
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,400
closer to 80.
So let me ask this.
510
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:57,500
Is it the linebackers and the
secondary or is it are we having
511
00:29:57,700 --> 00:30:00,600
missing tackles or we haven't
defensive line integrity?
512
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,900
And I got to see this yesterday
with the Niners and Camera,
513
00:30:03,900 --> 00:30:07,700
who's calling the game, but he
showed in the first half how we
514
00:30:07,700 --> 00:30:10,000
weren't in the right spots?
So we were leaving, Justin
515
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,700
filled gaps to run through and
then he showed the adjustments.
516
00:30:13,700 --> 00:30:16,300
And it's like, there's nowhere
for him to go because they're
517
00:30:16,300 --> 00:30:19,200
keeping sound quality.
What is it for this team right
518
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,200
now?
While it's a little bit of both,
519
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,600
it's more of the former than the
latter.
520
00:30:25,900 --> 00:30:30,000
The D line is more or less doing
what they need to do that where
521
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,800
they're struggling is actually
on backside contain more than
522
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,900
they are on necessarily Gap
Integrity.
523
00:30:37,100 --> 00:30:41,000
Okay, A lot of times on with
backside contain is that they're
524
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,000
they're relinquishing that
leverage to the quarterbacks
525
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:49,300
quicker than they need to and
then you know, the quarterbacks
526
00:30:49,300 --> 00:30:52,300
got a little bit more To get to
the edge than they do to meet
527
00:30:52,300 --> 00:30:55,300
them there.
So that's a little bit of a
528
00:30:55,308 --> 00:30:58,800
problem, but I think the bigger
problem is some of those missing
529
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:03,100
tackles and some of the safety
fits that we've had the last few
530
00:31:03,100 --> 00:31:07,600
weeks, they haven't been awful.
The problem is that when they
531
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:12,400
have happened, it's very much
like last year where it's when I
532
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,900
want to stay if he doesn't get
where they need to be, that's
533
00:31:14,900 --> 00:31:17,000
that's when you get those big
plays coming up.
534
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:22,100
It's really hard to stop.
Way for going from going less
535
00:31:22,100 --> 00:31:25,000
than 20, if the safety misses,
the tackle in the fit.
536
00:31:25,100 --> 00:31:29,100
All right upside.
Probably for the next month
537
00:31:29,500 --> 00:31:32,600
until we get to UVA.
We're not going to have guys who
538
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,400
are super Fleet of foot.
Another got dudes, got a little
539
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:40,600
bit of athleticism, but whoever
we see a b c does not and
540
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:44,900
Miami's to indict, similar to
the kid at do a little bit of
541
00:31:44,900 --> 00:31:50,700
athleticism, but none of that
crap to be worried about. let me
542
00:31:50,700 --> 00:31:56,300
ask this, all right, if I told
you that gives was going to have
543
00:31:56,300 --> 00:32:00,800
100 plus on less than 15
carries, close to 50 yards,
544
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:08,700
receiving But how would you have
felt on Saturday at 11:55?
545
00:32:12,300 --> 00:32:14,700
Yardage, I wouldn't have felt
really good about their.
546
00:32:14,700 --> 00:32:17,900
Like, that's probably, that's
probably a bad day for us.
547
00:32:17,900 --> 00:32:23,200
But when I slipped in no
touchdowns Feel much better, but
548
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,300
much better.
And and it it was a couple
549
00:32:26,300 --> 00:32:28,800
things.
I mean I think overall we did a
550
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:33,500
good job of being where we
needed to be a lot of times.
551
00:32:33,500 --> 00:32:37,000
I think the big thing that we
had trouble with was was getting
552
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,600
guys to the ground.
Consistently.
553
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,500
I mean the last few weeks we
have become a questionable
554
00:32:42,500 --> 00:32:46,800
tackling team we've reverted
that's a little class earning
555
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,000
and we'll see if that Trend
continues or if that tight.
556
00:32:51,100 --> 00:32:54,100
Ends up a little bit.
I don't know if it is just a
557
00:32:54,100 --> 00:32:56,600
season wearing on and some, you
know, technique going out the
558
00:32:56,608 --> 00:33:01,200
window a little bit or what it
may be, but we've definitely
559
00:33:01,300 --> 00:33:04,400
struggled with getting guys to
the turf consistently and I mean
560
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:11,200
one was like, I can't remember
if it was if it was Sims or or
561
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,700
Gibbs.
But we had one, we missed like
562
00:33:13,700 --> 00:33:17,400
three tackles and one of those
was like should have been
563
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,700
routine should have been yes,
get him on the ground and then
564
00:33:19,700 --> 00:33:22,600
all of a sudden he squirts out
Breaks another tackle and next
565
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,100
thing, you know, he's in the Red
Zone.
566
00:33:24,300 --> 00:33:27,100
Yeah.
And we got bailed out a couple
567
00:33:27,100 --> 00:33:28,700
times.
There was two big plays that
568
00:33:28,700 --> 00:33:30,700
gives had they got called back
for.
569
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:33,100
I think one was definitely
holding.
570
00:33:33,100 --> 00:33:34,900
I think the other was a block in
the back.
571
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:36,400
Yeah.
What was a block in the back?
572
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:40,200
They talked about that was like,
it, was that borderline call?
573
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,000
But hey, sometimes they go your
way.
574
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,800
Sometimes they don't, right?
Yeah, yes.
575
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:47,900
I mean, we got bailed out on
the, like I said, one of those
576
00:33:47,900 --> 00:33:49,900
went for a touchdown.
Long touchdown.
577
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,000
Yep.
Dead ended up getting put back.
578
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:56,200
I think it like the 35-yard line
or something like that.
579
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,400
So it was still, you know, he
cut still cut the field in half
580
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,700
but it wasn't the huge, you
know, 60 plus yard touchdown
581
00:34:02,700 --> 00:34:05,600
that it was initially there,
exactly.
582
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,500
I think the way we have to look
at it especially with him is the
583
00:34:09,500 --> 00:34:12,300
way Gibbs, how highly regarded
was me again.
584
00:34:12,300 --> 00:34:15,300
He was a top 50 player, a top
five running back coming out
585
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:19,000
just, you know, two years ago.
Did you have to feel okay?
586
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,600
Because He had 11 and he had 100
plus.
587
00:34:22,900 --> 00:34:25,900
But once you take that 60-plus
yarder that he ran later in the
588
00:34:25,900 --> 00:34:29,100
second half out, we were getting
to the ground.
589
00:34:29,300 --> 00:34:31,000
We were meeting at the point of
attack.
590
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:36,400
And that's what you and I and I
found when our defensive line is
591
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,000
getting there.
We do a pretty good job of
592
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:43,199
getting guys to the ground.
It's when things when gaps are
593
00:34:43,199 --> 00:34:46,000
there, when the holes are there,
when the safeties have to come
594
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,900
up and the gaps a little bit
bigger than you like?
595
00:34:48,900 --> 00:34:51,199
And they've got to make that
tackle in space and there's
596
00:34:51,199 --> 00:34:54,500
still some wiggle room.
Yeah, that's when things get a
597
00:34:54,507 --> 00:34:57,900
little dicey and that's true
with postings.
598
00:34:57,900 --> 00:35:00,900
I mean, those are, those are
just generally harder tackles to
599
00:35:00,900 --> 00:35:04,500
make Make but you still got a
big sure that you're getting
600
00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:07,700
guys to the turf and if you're
able to fit them up, you got to
601
00:35:07,700 --> 00:35:09,300
get them to the ground.
It's true.
602
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,000
Now one guy who did have a good
day Brian statistic wise was
603
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,600
Alan Tisdale 12 total tackles
two and a half for lost even had
604
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,300
a quarterback hurry and I know
he had some missteps here and
605
00:35:20,300 --> 00:35:24,200
there but is this one of these
things where is this like is
606
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,300
this just had a really good day
was it the type of scheme we're
607
00:35:27,300 --> 00:35:31,100
playing or is it one of those
things where airs you saw a few
608
00:35:31,100 --> 00:35:33,000
weeks ago?
He's clean them up.
609
00:35:33,100 --> 00:35:36,800
Well he's cleaned them up where
they're not as they're not as
610
00:35:36,900 --> 00:35:40,000
penal as they were before.
Yeah.
611
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,400
I mean that's really hard to say
I think we need.
612
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,800
You know the jury is still out
at this point.
613
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:49,200
I think I need a little bit more
more tape to see if this is a
614
00:35:49,500 --> 00:35:53,500
positive trend.
Whether this is something scheme
615
00:35:53,500 --> 00:35:57,800
wise that they did differently
or if this is something that was
616
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,000
just kind of a kind of a
one-off, you know.
617
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,200
Hopefully we're building on
something going forward.
618
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,500
I didn't see it.
I didn't see anything overtly
619
00:36:06,500 --> 00:36:10,400
that said they changed how they
were deploying him or anything
620
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,900
like that.
Yeah, I think the only person
621
00:36:13,900 --> 00:36:16,300
they that they deployed a little
bit differently which actually
622
00:36:16,300 --> 00:36:18,800
helped with one of the things we
talked about last week was
623
00:36:19,500 --> 00:36:24,000
seeing bar no stand up a whole
lot more This week and I think
624
00:36:24,008 --> 00:36:28,000
that that helped with his
overall conditioning and play to
625
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:29,500
his strengths, a little bit more
as well.
626
00:36:29,500 --> 00:36:33,700
But when we do at Tisdale, like
I said, I think the jury is
627
00:36:33,700 --> 00:36:37,500
still out on whether, you know,
this is going to be something of
628
00:36:37,500 --> 00:36:40,200
a trend or whether it's just a
one-off good day for him.
629
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,700
But either way, you know, he did
pretty well there was like, you
630
00:36:43,700 --> 00:36:47,700
know, like everybody there's a
play here, play there that you
631
00:36:47,700 --> 00:36:50,600
did, make that you could have.
But in terms of his overall
632
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,600
game, probably, One of the
better games.
633
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,100
He's played all season.
Yeah, good for you, hopefully
634
00:36:55,100 --> 00:36:58,500
build upon it, especially going
up to the stretch run here.
635
00:36:59,100 --> 00:37:01,300
All right, Brian.
Something that we had harked on
636
00:37:01,300 --> 00:37:04,300
and against the Syracuse game of
how bad we were on the money
637
00:37:04,300 --> 00:37:05,800
Downs, on third, and fourth
down.
638
00:37:06,300 --> 00:37:09,500
Well, this week significantly
better on those two downs,
639
00:37:09,500 --> 00:37:14,000
combine 4415 for Georgia Tech,
definitely hurt them.
640
00:37:14,300 --> 00:37:17,900
Now, one of those for was the
touchdown where tomorrow Connor
641
00:37:17,900 --> 00:37:22,900
did get sort of burned by
McGowan and McGowan we know is
642
00:37:22,900 --> 00:37:27,500
probably their best overall wide
receiver but you know, just
643
00:37:27,500 --> 00:37:31,700
looking at it is the field like
was just just a game Flow.
644
00:37:31,700 --> 00:37:35,900
Like we got a head so it hurt
them or was it something
645
00:37:35,900 --> 00:37:38,600
different?
Where even when they were they
646
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,900
had managerial situations, they
didn't know what was coming from
647
00:37:41,900 --> 00:37:47,800
us in those situations.
Probably a little bit of both.
648
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:55,100
I think we've been better on
third down this year
649
00:37:56,200 --> 00:38:00,700
significantly compared to last
year but fourth down has been
650
00:38:00,700 --> 00:38:01,700
awful.
Yes.
651
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,000
And I think this is just kind of
a.
652
00:38:05,300 --> 00:38:08,900
We finally put that Trend in
place for a full four quarters.
653
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:13,200
At least on third down.
I think third down was probably
654
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,400
that was probably our best third
down.
655
00:38:15,500 --> 00:38:18,500
Yeah, performance, all year 33
for 12.
656
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,600
I mean, yeah, I'll take that
every day.
657
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:28,600
Yeah, I'll take 5412 every day.
Yeah, so, I mean, they'll on
658
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:32,900
third down, I mean, there's not
a lot to complain about, you
659
00:38:32,908 --> 00:38:35,900
know, I think we put them in
situations where they felt like
660
00:38:35,900 --> 00:38:39,200
they needed to get first downs
because they were playing a
661
00:38:39,207 --> 00:38:42,200
little bit of catch-up.
Especially as we went further
662
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:48,600
into the the second quarter and
Third quarter, but I think we
663
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:52,500
did it.
We just did a good job of Taking
664
00:38:52,500 --> 00:38:55,100
what they were giving us and
kind of understanding, all
665
00:38:55,100 --> 00:38:59,200
right, well, if we get them to
the ground here will get off the
666
00:38:59,207 --> 00:39:01,000
field understanding that down
and distance.
667
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:02,900
And I think we did a good job of
understanding that down in
668
00:39:02,900 --> 00:39:06,300
distance and not giving them any
more than we could allow, but
669
00:39:06,300 --> 00:39:10,000
still doing a pretty consistent
job of getting them to the turf.
670
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,000
All right.
Well, something else we got to
671
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:13,700
do.
We haven't seen too many of we
672
00:39:13,700 --> 00:39:16,400
it was a fourth down, but we got
a red zone stop.
673
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:21,000
You mentioned to me, you thought
Collins was chasing points.
674
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:26,900
yeah, I mean, but isn't that
sort of beneficial if a guy's
675
00:39:26,900 --> 00:39:32,300
trying to chase points because
they're down, you know, the way
676
00:39:32,300 --> 00:39:35,600
we had played all year, you
almost feel like if you look
677
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,700
statistically it, what we had
done on fourth down and what we
678
00:39:38,700 --> 00:39:41,800
had done in the Red Zone, you
want to taking the same risk,
679
00:39:43,700 --> 00:39:47,800
He's chasing points there and I
say that only because of how
680
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,300
much time was left on the clock,
but I get your point.
681
00:39:50,300 --> 00:39:55,100
If you look at historically this
season on fourth down and Red
682
00:39:55,100 --> 00:39:58,600
Zone that was better than a coin
flip, right more than enough
683
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:02,700
coin, flip significantly better
than a coin flip and especially
684
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,100
you know, when you when you put
the Red Zone factor in there.
685
00:40:05,700 --> 00:40:08,100
So finally getting a actual true
Red Zone.
686
00:40:08,100 --> 00:40:14,200
Stop that wasn't a turnover and
it was The turnover in terms of
687
00:40:14,207 --> 00:40:17,800
forced turnover.
Not a turnover on downs and
688
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,000
getting them off the field.
They're obviously you saved
689
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:25,500
three, you gave your defense of
confidence and the defense more
690
00:40:25,500 --> 00:40:27,800
or less played well in the
second half and really the whole
691
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,600
game.
Overall, you know, missed
692
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,500
tackles the side.
That's really the biggest
693
00:40:33,500 --> 00:40:37,300
complaint I've got about the
defense, I knew that their
694
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:41,000
tandem in the backfield we're
going to put up some yards and
695
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,000
they did but we did a good job.
Stop, you know, that one
696
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:48,400
touchdown on fourth and one
aside fourth.
697
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,600
I forget what it was fourth and
whatever that when Connor got
698
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:55,700
beat, that play is side, we did
a good job.
699
00:40:55,700 --> 00:41:00,200
The whole game in the secondary
covering those wideouts.
700
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:03,400
Yep.
Definitely, you know you only
701
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,000
have 180 our past and I know we
talked about it.
702
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,700
They're primarily a run days
team but they were still two top
703
00:41:09,700 --> 00:41:15,300
60 ranked in both passing.
And running the ball so you know
704
00:41:15,300 --> 00:41:17,300
you're going to see more Ron but
you knew they could be
705
00:41:17,300 --> 00:41:20,300
successful throwing the ball.
So I think that was a such a big
706
00:41:20,300 --> 00:41:24,500
key and again.
There were two guys.
707
00:41:24,500 --> 00:41:26,000
There were two guys on the
field.
708
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:30,800
That could really beat us.
Jeff Sims and Gibbs.
709
00:41:31,100 --> 00:41:33,400
They didn't beat us, they didn't
beat us.
710
00:41:33,700 --> 00:41:36,600
And if you told me, we're
sitting here talking about loss
711
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:44,500
today, I'd say maybe Sims has 20
30 more yards and gives has one
712
00:41:44,500 --> 00:41:49,700
or two more touchdowns but we
held last piece KRON4, we take a
713
00:41:49,707 --> 00:41:52,500
look at the pickles and wrap
this thing up this afternoon.
714
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:56,100
What about the play of Jalen
Griffin, man?
715
00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:59,700
Yeah.
I mean, he played well, he was
716
00:41:59,700 --> 00:42:01,800
in that second line of that.
Defensive end plate.
717
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:07,800
Played really well, you know, I
don't know if this was kind of a
718
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:11,200
boost, his brother for the
Griffin, the Griffin Bowl.
719
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:15,100
Yeah.
Whether it was just a little
720
00:42:15,100 --> 00:42:18,500
bit, lighter competition or
whether it was something where
721
00:42:18,500 --> 00:42:21,000
he's, you know, putting pieces
together and starting to
722
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:22,300
starting to turn the corner
there.
723
00:42:23,100 --> 00:42:25,600
But that strip sack was a big
moment in the game because that
724
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,700
set us up for one of the two
field goals.
725
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,800
As we got to the second half
that ended up being key and
726
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,300
closing this one out.
So big shout out to Jaylin Griff
727
00:42:34,300 --> 00:42:35,600
and that was a good game for
him.
728
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:39,600
Hopefully see, see more of that
against BC coming up this week.
729
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:40,700
It's true.
And he should have had the
730
00:42:40,707 --> 00:42:45,400
second sack because the that was
a soft roughing the passer call
731
00:42:45,700 --> 00:42:49,200
that he took her some
supermodel, soft Charmin, soft
732
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:53,000
taking down Sims, that would
have put them in like I think
733
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,300
forth and 26, or something
insane.
734
00:42:56,300 --> 00:43:01,900
Like, you know, But for him
seeing just hymns take a step
735
00:43:02,500 --> 00:43:05,600
and again with the Hope becomes
it's not only with the second
736
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:09,200
line is some mixing and matching
with the first team guys, to
737
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,300
give them extra breathers.
We've talked about it.
738
00:43:12,300 --> 00:43:14,400
We talked about Cole Nelson
coming on.
739
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:19,200
I think Jalen has the skill set.
You just have to deploy him at
740
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,500
the right time.
I don't think just looking at
741
00:43:21,500 --> 00:43:25,300
his size, you can't expect him
to go into a lot of running
742
00:43:25,300 --> 00:43:31,800
downs but When it's those second
and long chances, let him go in.
743
00:43:32,900 --> 00:43:35,800
And then, you know, put Garbodor
barno out and then flip them
744
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:37,800
back in if he becomes third and
short.
745
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,100
Like let's be wise with how we
rotate him, because I think he
746
00:43:41,100 --> 00:43:44,000
can become that guy.
We need to give them those
747
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,600
breath.
So when we get in those tight
748
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,100
games late, they're not done for
the day.
749
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,000
Yeah, I mean he's the ideal guy
to give bar know a blow their
750
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:56,000
he's the ideal guy to come in
opposite Cole Nelson.
751
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:59,900
I think the problem that we were
having early on is that our
752
00:43:59,900 --> 00:44:05,200
second line was pairing him with
Eli and and then that that
753
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,900
that's that's the way to
undersized to be something that
754
00:44:07,900 --> 00:44:12,300
you can roll for more than to
place a few Downs of a series.
755
00:44:12,300 --> 00:44:17,600
So I think that's the big
problem in so having cold
756
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,100
Nelson, come on, I think maybe
You something that's helping
757
00:44:20,100 --> 00:44:23,400
Griffin really utilize his
talents a little bit more
758
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:29,000
because he's got a bigger body
opposite him that can do some of
759
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,900
those things to help out in the
running game.
760
00:44:31,900 --> 00:44:36,200
Where yeah you can still run at
Jalen maybe but you know you'll
761
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,000
he's got somebody on the
backside of that can kind of
762
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:42,200
clean some of that up and it
can't run both directions.
763
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,600
Absolutely.
Well, Brian prediction wise I
764
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:48,500
think Georgia Tech completely
wrong.
765
00:44:48,500 --> 00:44:51,400
Glad to Be wrong.
You went for jigna Tech and we
766
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:56,800
did nine not 3.
So you know super shocked me
767
00:44:57,900 --> 00:44:59,900
only marginally shocked you this
week.
768
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:03,900
Yeah only marginally.
I think the thing here is that
769
00:45:04,500 --> 00:45:09,400
you know I think some of this
was pessimism was fully setting
770
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:10,400
in.
Yes.
771
00:45:10,500 --> 00:45:14,900
Still in and it's still in and
and I think the thing that we
772
00:45:14,900 --> 00:45:18,600
need to realize here is that
because pessimism is set in we
773
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:22,200
can't Overreact to this outcome
either can't because this is an
774
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:27,100
expected outcome at best, right?
Like we expect to win by more
775
00:45:27,100 --> 00:45:30,600
than a touchdown against this
type of Georgia Tech Team every
776
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:34,200
year.
So let's not beat our chest.
777
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,800
We can be happy with the with
the wind, which we are very
778
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:41,700
happy with the win super happy.
But let's not recalibrate based
779
00:45:41,700 --> 00:45:45,400
on this win.
We still need to do other things
780
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,600
against better competition
before we start saying.
781
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:49,500
All right.
Right.
782
00:45:50,500 --> 00:45:54,000
We're making a turn here.
Exactly, exactly.
783
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:58,300
So so grain of salt, but good,
good, wind players played hard,
784
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:01,100
you love that and they play
hard.
785
00:46:01,100 --> 00:46:05,000
Every game Win, Lose execution,
errors, coaching errors, all
786
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,100
that.
I mean they've been putting it
787
00:46:07,100 --> 00:46:09,500
all out there.
So as you respect them for that,
788
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:12,700
you absolutely have to respect
him for that, especially what
789
00:46:12,700 --> 00:46:14,900
happened in three of the four
games prior.
790
00:46:15,300 --> 00:46:17,400
So super, super shout out to
them.
791
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,600
And actually for the five games
For that.
792
00:46:20,100 --> 00:46:23,400
All right Ron, you almost did
it.
793
00:46:24,900 --> 00:46:32,100
So glorify his brother closed
Circle was 9:00 and 1:00 and I
794
00:46:32,107 --> 00:46:34,500
want to read down.
Just so y'all know what he got,
795
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:36,800
Miami pit.
He took mommy in the points.
796
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:38,100
Miami wins out.
Right?
797
00:46:38,300 --> 00:46:40,500
Syracuse at home.
He laid the six Syracuse.
798
00:46:40,500 --> 00:46:43,600
Won by two touchdowns.
Took wait, wait!
799
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:46,300
Blows the doors off Duke.
Could have what?
800
00:46:46,300 --> 00:46:49,600
You probably could have laid 33
in that one so Good doubled it
801
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:53,500
up, is he say comes back,
handles Louisville, Notre Dame.
802
00:46:53,500 --> 00:46:59,500
Runs away from UNC late B, why
you not only covers the two and
803
00:46:59,500 --> 00:47:05,700
a half, almost hang 70 on UVA.
In Provo, billing API, are they
804
00:47:05,700 --> 00:47:10,200
easily be Texas state line else?
Forty five to seven was the
805
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:16,500
final anyone who gave took Ohio
state, land, 80 and a half
806
00:47:16,500 --> 00:47:19,600
points has not watched any of
their Games.
807
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,300
They were coming in hot, they
had played trash.
808
00:47:23,300 --> 00:47:26,500
Bronwyn Penn State.
And then the big matchup of the
809
00:47:26,500 --> 00:47:28,200
day he tooks party in the
points.
810
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:34,600
Sparty wins out, right?
And probably even the way we
811
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:36,500
regardless of that game for you
were probably going to cover
812
00:47:36,500 --> 00:47:37,700
that.
Yep.
813
00:47:37,700 --> 00:47:45,400
So 330, Florida, State, Clemson.
There's about 12 seconds left on
814
00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:50,000
the clock, Florida, State's down
in stages down three, and it's
815
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:56,200
the ultimate bad beat.
Ultimate bad beat since Lee.
816
00:47:56,200 --> 00:48:00,700
There was a it was a fumble
scoop and score scoop and score
817
00:48:00,700 --> 00:48:05,500
with 3 seconds left.
To draw.
818
00:48:06,300 --> 00:48:08,600
We got it at 10.
We did not get it at nine and a
819
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:09,800
half.
I don't think we would have
820
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:14,700
changed either at nine and a
half from FSU, and it doesn't
821
00:48:14,700 --> 00:48:17,900
really change a ton in the, in
our, in our matchups either
822
00:48:17,900 --> 00:48:20,900
because we both went with with
FSU here.
823
00:48:20,900 --> 00:48:24,400
So no, don't change it.
It will just move the draw into
824
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:26,400
the into the loss column for
both of us.
825
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:31,300
Yeah.
But what this week did do is, we
826
00:48:31,300 --> 00:48:34,100
are going to have a race down
the home stretch.
827
00:48:35,300 --> 00:48:37,400
Even as crazy.
And as bad as my weekend,
828
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:44,900
started a huge ACC Perfection
for me 63 and one to keep a
829
00:48:44,900 --> 00:48:49,100
one-game lead Brian's at 5140
and one.
830
00:48:49,100 --> 00:48:55,000
I'm at 52:39 and one.
So made it three games this week
831
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:59,900
Made Up 3 games this week, which
I want to do like that myself on
832
00:48:59,900 --> 00:49:01,800
the back for you.
Going - enough.
833
00:49:02,500 --> 00:49:04,600
I didn't lose them.
Yeah.
834
00:49:06,300 --> 00:49:09,500
You at least were better than
the the coin flip to keep the
835
00:49:09,500 --> 00:49:11,900
lead.
I was better.
836
00:49:12,300 --> 00:49:16,300
Hey, I was two out of three.
I mean I don't trust PC anymore
837
00:49:16,300 --> 00:49:22,000
so I will pick them to beat us
because that's been my Mo don't
838
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:23,400
trust them.
They're beating us then.
839
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:27,600
But yeah, it was, it was a fun
thing to watch it.
840
00:49:27,607 --> 00:49:31,600
When I woke up on Sunday morning
and started looking, I woke up.
841
00:49:32,700 --> 00:49:35,300
Like, in the middle of the night
and I rolled over and I looked
842
00:49:35,300 --> 00:49:40,500
at the phone and I saw it was
like 45-42 UVA and that's why I
843
00:49:40,500 --> 00:49:43,300
mean we lost that one.
Didn't pay attention to how much
844
00:49:43,300 --> 00:49:45,600
time was left.
Turn it over, turn it over
845
00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:47,400
again.
When I wake up five hours later
846
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:54,200
66 245, how much time was left
in that game to scored for three
847
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:56,700
touchdowns and a field goal?
It's like, oh yeah, I was
848
00:49:56,700 --> 00:49:58,700
looking like early third quarter
here.
849
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:03,400
It was like 2:00 in the morning.
It felt like I don't It was man.
850
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:09,300
So again you know this is our
Monday episode, we will be back
851
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:13,500
crossing our fingers back to
normal time Wednesday.
852
00:50:14,100 --> 00:50:16,900
Yep, 9:30.
And then hopefully next Sunday.
853
00:50:16,900 --> 00:50:19,900
We're back at 9:30.
Brian, anything else you want to
854
00:50:19,900 --> 00:50:21,400
talk about before we close it up
here?
855
00:50:22,100 --> 00:50:25,200
I think we're good to go, man.
I need some light work of that
856
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:28,100
one.
We did just under an hour just
857
00:50:28,100 --> 00:50:30,600
under an hour, I'm bad at all.

I'm Curtis Wilson, I'm Brian

3
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:58,600
Monday afternoon only perfect
fall Monday afternoon.
4
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:04,500
I stepped outside is like 66
degrees a little breeze.
5
00:01:04,599 --> 00:01:07,900
The leaves are turning its fall,
whether it's perfect.
6
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,300
This is what we live for.
This is what we live.
7
00:01:11,300 --> 00:01:13,500
Oh, it's so true.
It this week's going to be like
8
00:01:13,500 --> 00:01:15,800
great and I think the next few
weeks are going to be great.
9
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:21,800
Like that little delayed this
week guys, with Halloween Brown
10
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:26,400
was out of town and I really
didn't get kind of settled down
11
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:31,800
until about 9:15 last night.
So We made a call like yeah,
12
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,100
we're not gonna be able to do
this on Halloween night.
13
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,200
Yeah shout out my wife who said
y'all sure y'all can pull this
14
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,100
off on Halloween night like
yeah, we got it.
15
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,900
She's been good.
We don't got it.
16
00:01:46,900 --> 00:01:51,000
All worked out, gave us a little
time to review the Georgia Tech
17
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,100
game again and how was
trick-or-treating Brian
18
00:01:55,700 --> 00:01:58,500
approximately.
How many pounds did your your
19
00:01:58,500 --> 00:02:02,300
kiddo bring home?
Probably a good two to three,
20
00:02:02,300 --> 00:02:03,800
man.
I didn't I didn't put the scale
21
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,700
on it but he made a good.
We had a good lap around my
22
00:02:07,700 --> 00:02:14,000
in-laws neighborhood.
They had a lot of fire pits out
23
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,100
last night so that a lot of
people sitting out in the
24
00:02:16,100 --> 00:02:19,200
driveway with the fire pits.
Just watching the kids run
25
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,700
around.
It was a good time.
26
00:02:21,700 --> 00:02:23,600
It was a good time and we did
not we knocked it out in about
27
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,000
an hour and then we headed on
home.
28
00:02:26,900 --> 00:02:27,600
Bye.
You guys.
29
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,400
Very nice.
I would say somewhere between
30
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:33,300
five and six Did a little
something here at the house with
31
00:02:33,300 --> 00:02:36,600
the neighbors and walked around
the neighborhood to a point.
32
00:02:36,700 --> 00:02:39,900
And I told Brian, we were
getting down this bigger Street
33
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:42,900
in our neighborhood, and we hit
like four houses consecutive.
34
00:02:42,900 --> 00:02:45,800
There were like no candy.
We're out.
35
00:02:45,900 --> 00:02:48,300
We're out.
So clearly, what covid did was
36
00:02:48,300 --> 00:02:53,000
throw people into thinking, they
could buy one bag of candy in a
37
00:02:53,008 --> 00:02:58,300
big neighborhood.
Nope, so definite failure there,
38
00:02:58,300 --> 00:03:02,500
but we've got enough candy.
D2 easily last us until next
39
00:03:02,500 --> 00:03:05,600
Halloween which is always the
goal putting the candy bin.
40
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:10,000
And yeah is that other courts
still doing like kind of like
41
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:14,700
the pre trick-or-treat stuff
anymore or is that they didn't
42
00:03:14,700 --> 00:03:17,700
this year whenever they're
looking for the corn maze, they
43
00:03:17,700 --> 00:03:21,400
did not have it this year but
you know, it's a change in
44
00:03:21,408 --> 00:03:24,100
Dynamic.
You came over a few years ago
45
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:27,400
and it was their kids were a
little younger and now their
46
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:32,200
kids are getting a little older.
So, It's an ever-changing
47
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,400
Dynamic, but we had a great time
with our folks and had some
48
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:40,000
pizza and some drinks and then
all went out together, strong,
49
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,700
that about 100 100 yards long
from one end to the other.
50
00:03:44,300 --> 00:03:45,800
There you go.
All right.
51
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,100
Well, Brian we snap the streak,
buddy.
52
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,500
We did, dude.
Hokies that one won.
53
00:03:54,500 --> 00:03:56,300
We won.
We won 11.
54
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,300
Brown was right about Georgia
Tech.
55
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:05,500
Again, Brian is now like, two
for two on Georgia Tech calls in
56
00:04:05,500 --> 00:04:07,400
the last.
Here we go, here we go.
57
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:13,200
Um, but yeah 26:17 when I was
getting out of getting out of a
58
00:04:13,208 --> 00:04:17,200
little baseball as the game was
ending and had people like, oh,
59
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,399
not and I looked at it,
nine-point lie about three
60
00:04:20,399 --> 00:04:25,700
minutes left, and you just kind
of look like again, seriously,
61
00:04:25,700 --> 00:04:32,800
it's going to happen again, but
it didn't the Guys held on 4 and
62
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:37,800
4.
Now you know 2 and 2 2 and 2 in
63
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:43,200
the ACC get to into in the ACC
Coastal not completely, the ACC
64
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:47,100
Championship game, which is
going to be whoever's in there.
65
00:04:47,100 --> 00:04:51,100
It's going to be a show, let's
just sit, this is going to be
66
00:04:51,100 --> 00:04:54,600
the weirdest year overall man
because especially when they
67
00:04:55,500 --> 00:04:57,900
like Atlantic.
It's not looking great.
68
00:04:57,900 --> 00:05:00,300
Other than Wake Forest Lake
Forest has had a couple.
69
00:05:00,500 --> 00:05:06,500
Cares even in there and you
know, obviously Clemson it in,
70
00:05:06,500 --> 00:05:08,300
who we thought they'd be this
year.
71
00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:09,700
They're not.
You look at you.
72
00:05:09,700 --> 00:05:14,600
Look at the coastal.
You know, you got UNC who
73
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,300
definitely isn't who we thought
they were.
74
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:21,600
Oh no, you got Miami starting to
Surge a little bit after kind of
75
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:23,000
falling behind.
Yeah.
76
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,800
And then you got pit finally
taking a loss in the in the
77
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,300
coastal there.
You know, what can they do?
78
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,900
Due to right?
The ship to make sure they keep
79
00:05:32,900 --> 00:05:35,800
the advantage, they have.
Oh yeah, it's going to be the
80
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,700
next month and that's where
we're sitting at.
81
00:05:37,700 --> 00:05:42,200
We're sitting at one month away
from, you know, essentially the
82
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,400
end of the regular season it's
going to be wild.
83
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,500
Again, this it's more and more
looking like 2007, another top
84
00:05:48,500 --> 00:05:51,500
10 team goes down, who was in
the running for the Big 10 in
85
00:05:51,500 --> 00:05:53,300
Iowa.
Not only did they go down, they
86
00:05:53,300 --> 00:05:55,600
got absolutely white by
Wisconsin.
87
00:05:56,100 --> 00:05:58,200
Yeah, drug.
That's Wisconsin's looked all
88
00:05:58,200 --> 00:05:59,000
year.
It is.
89
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,900
So it's like this.
Get it's every week, it happens.
90
00:06:02,900 --> 00:06:07,300
It's a little more 2007, so
can't I can't wait to see the
91
00:06:07,300 --> 00:06:08,900
next month.
Especially me.
92
00:06:08,900 --> 00:06:12,000
And Brian are kind of doing love
our kids playing sports and
93
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,600
everything, but it's kind of
like it's over very soon.
94
00:06:17,300 --> 00:06:21,100
We two games two games, two
games, one game.
95
00:06:21,300 --> 00:06:23,000
All right, well let's start
here, Brian.
96
00:06:23,100 --> 00:06:25,400
Let's start, let's look at the
offensive performance because
97
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,100
once again, we know the deal,
just a Wednesday's been in that
98
00:06:28,100 --> 00:06:30,300
room more and more over the last
couple weeks.
99
00:06:30,300 --> 00:06:33,500
Weeks.
And what do we say last week?
100
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,200
What do we say that?
The number one point of this
101
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,100
version, that we were going to,
what had to be done.
102
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:44,200
Feed the beast, and did they
ever Feed the Bees between
103
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:50,200
Malachi Thomas and He-Man 39
carries 186 yards. 4.8 per
104
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:54,300
carry, not the five, we like,
but a heck of a lot better than
105
00:06:54,300 --> 00:06:58,200
the 3.7 we've been averaging and
Brian.
106
00:06:58,500 --> 00:07:00,200
Would you see out of Malachi
man?
107
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,800
That like like that makes you
think he's the real deal.
108
00:07:05,300 --> 00:07:08,200
I tell you the thing that
impresses me most about him is
109
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,000
that he goes out there and
there's not really a negative
110
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:14,500
play in his game, he's always
getting yardage.
111
00:07:14,500 --> 00:07:18,200
He has good Vision.
Between the tackles when he gets
112
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,900
to the second level, he can make
guys mess and he just does a
113
00:07:21,900 --> 00:07:25,500
good job of not getting you
behind the sticks.
114
00:07:25,700 --> 00:07:27,500
He's not going to dance the
backfield.
115
00:07:27,500 --> 00:07:30,800
He's not going to you know
search for the whole he's going
116
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,600
to find.
What's their get upfield?
117
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,300
Get north and south and then try
to To make a guy Miss.
118
00:07:37,300 --> 00:07:40,900
So and think that's the big
thing and some of it is rubbing
119
00:07:40,900 --> 00:07:46,000
off on on him.
His yards per carry the last two
120
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,700
games are significantly better
than his yards per carry for the
121
00:07:49,700 --> 00:07:53,600
season.
He was like 5.8 on Saturday and
122
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:58,200
I mean he had that big, you
know, 25 + yd run that set up
123
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,300
some things.
He caught a couple passes for a
124
00:08:00,300 --> 00:08:04,000
few yards that again.
Even if they don't go anywhere,
125
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:09,400
it's that element of you.
Must defend this with Rahim and
126
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,900
you know, you got your, you've
got to meet, you got your 12 and
127
00:08:13,900 --> 00:08:18,200
you got your want to have some
diversity and it again I think
128
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:19,800
we still want to see what both
of them on the field.
129
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:25,500
At the same time, I saw a play
that was used with with the
130
00:08:25,500 --> 00:08:27,900
Wayne Loft and it caught my eye.
I don't know if you caught this
131
00:08:27,900 --> 00:08:31,400
was on one of the runs they
motioned to Wayne into the back
132
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,799
Field behind the running back,
snap the ball.
133
00:08:34,799 --> 00:08:38,200
It's a Old triple option plays
what it is, except you're using
134
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:42,200
a wide receiver, basically read
it Braxton.
135
00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,600
Let It Go, but he pulled it and
had the option to go to a little
136
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,800
power option, right?
And if you tell me, you put
137
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,700
Rahim on the field and line them
up wide and then motion him,
138
00:08:50,700 --> 00:08:54,100
it's even more diversity because
if you're doing that, you're
139
00:08:54,100 --> 00:08:59,600
probably in a two tight end set.
You know, you're in some sort of
140
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,000
set where you're getting
potentially a linebacker on him
141
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,400
and to say, you're going to try
to chase the edge with that.
142
00:09:05,500 --> 00:09:09,900
I'd love to see that play ran,
let me ask this Prime because,
143
00:09:09,900 --> 00:09:12,800
you know, we're getting better.
We're seeing the runs.
144
00:09:13,700 --> 00:09:17,200
Is there anything else we need
to see from this room or any one
145
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:18,600
else.
We need to see from this room to
146
00:09:18,608 --> 00:09:21,900
maybe make it a perfect
complementary room.
147
00:09:23,500 --> 00:09:26,600
I think at this point, the thing
I'd like to see is maybe more
148
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:29,700
targeting the running back in
the passing game on passes that
149
00:09:29,700 --> 00:09:34,400
aren't screens.
So, we know the screen games
150
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,500
there.
Yes, it's had had success here
151
00:09:37,500 --> 00:09:40,500
and there, not not unanimous
success, right?
152
00:09:40,500 --> 00:09:44,700
It's had some, some negative
plays and things like that based
153
00:09:44,700 --> 00:09:49,900
on when the, when the calls were
made and things like that, but I
154
00:09:49,900 --> 00:09:52,600
want to see the running backs
get involved in the actual
155
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,500
passing game and some of that is
putting some of those damned
156
00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:59,500
check Downs in this offense,
where they can get the ball in
157
00:09:59,500 --> 00:10:02,000
space when the primary and
secondary.
158
00:10:02,100 --> 00:10:07,200
Secondary options are covered
and let them try to break a
159
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,800
tackle, get up field, get the
first down, maybe bust a big
160
00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,500
play.
We haven't really seen that.
161
00:10:12,500 --> 00:10:15,100
There was some of that early in
the season.
162
00:10:16,100 --> 00:10:19,200
We haven't really seen them.
Put those elements back in the
163
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,000
offense since then.
But if we can get some of that
164
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,100
in there where we can get these
guys in space a little bit more,
165
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,500
I think that would pay some
dividends but I tell you one
166
00:10:30,500 --> 00:10:34,100
thing that has been put back
Into the offense a little bit is
167
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:38,900
some actual quarterback reads.
Yes, there were numerous read
168
00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:43,300
options on Saturday and that
definitely helped open up the
169
00:10:43,300 --> 00:10:48,800
offense, especially inside the
tackles for Raheem and Malachi
170
00:10:49,300 --> 00:10:52,500
and you know, be behaving solid
running game on Saturday 48
171
00:10:52,500 --> 00:10:55,500
yards on 11 carries.
So you know right at four and a
172
00:10:55,508 --> 00:10:59,400
half a carry that's adjusted he
did take a few sacks that might
173
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:03,600
not have been great and There
were a couple times he pulled it
174
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,600
when he should have.
Let it go the most and I think,
175
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,100
the reason he let it go, cuz he
thought he could wiggle away
176
00:11:10,100 --> 00:11:12,900
from the defensive end that was
late in the third quarter.
177
00:11:12,900 --> 00:11:17,100
I think he doesn't pull it holds
it and the guys like right right
178
00:11:17,100 --> 00:11:20,000
in front of him, and you see him
wiggle and the guy just like
179
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,400
stands.
Like, you know, I'm not buying
180
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,300
into the not taking that fake.
Got about six yard loss and I
181
00:11:26,300 --> 00:11:31,600
tell you between that and then
the scrambles, which we had seen
182
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,100
earlier.
In the season and you talked
183
00:11:33,100 --> 00:11:35,500
about Brian the whole time the
offense.
184
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,900
Is not doing the best because of
Braxton, but the all sense is
185
00:11:40,900 --> 00:11:44,100
also not doing the worst because
of Braxton and we're seeing it
186
00:11:44,100 --> 00:11:49,000
more and more and, you know, for
him he had a pretty solid game.
187
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,000
You know, close to 250 yard,
passing couple, touchdowns, 64%
188
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,600
completions but let's talk about
the offensive line before we get
189
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,100
into the passing game, I did not
know this.
190
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,300
I have not seen anything, it had
not been any buzz, but Luke to
191
00:12:03,300 --> 00:12:08,100
Noodle was out on Saturday.
I never heard the Reasonings or
192
00:12:08,100 --> 00:12:11,300
read the reasoning, but he was
out and they had to get Nick.
193
00:12:11,300 --> 00:12:13,600
He got nicked against Syracuse,
okay?
194
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,900
But I didn't think you.
It was one report isn't a game.
195
00:12:16,900 --> 00:12:18,200
Yeah.
I didn't think was a missing a
196
00:12:18,208 --> 00:12:23,600
start situation so but you know,
Silas filled in did a pretty
197
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,900
admirable job there.
But the person I was more
198
00:12:26,900 --> 00:12:31,000
impressed with was Parker
Clements starting at right.
199
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,800
Tackle probably had his best
game of his career.
200
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,200
I know it's still a young
career.
201
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,600
Here it is.
But getting him on the field and
202
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,900
actually having a game you know
fish and be damned here, having
203
00:12:42,900 --> 00:12:47,600
a having a game where he looks
like you know if he keeps
204
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,300
progressing that he could be
that guy at least at right
205
00:12:50,300 --> 00:12:54,600
tackle right now.
If not you know potentially left
206
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:58,800
tackle some time in the future
that that's that's a good thing.
207
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,000
Getting a guy out there and
getting them some quality snaps
208
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,200
and seeing them show it on the
field.
209
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:07,900
Yet that that's a positive take.
Way, you know, outside of the
210
00:13:07,900 --> 00:13:09,900
outcome that you had getting the
win.
211
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,300
Exactly.
Oh, the other thing is, you
212
00:13:12,300 --> 00:13:15,300
might be the only offensive line
than that has ever got called
213
00:13:15,300 --> 00:13:19,100
for holding when he himself was
being held on the screen pass.
214
00:13:19,100 --> 00:13:22,900
Like like there's not that that
happened to me against
215
00:13:22,900 --> 00:13:27,000
Bridgewater back in 2004.
So if that's the second
216
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,400
documented time, ever second
document of time a offensive
217
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,100
lineman is literally getting
held so they can't set up a
218
00:13:33,100 --> 00:13:37,200
screens.
So the Defensive players,
219
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,800
essentially is defensive holding
in some way and he gets called
220
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,000
it sets us back, 10 yards.
But yeah.
221
00:13:46,700 --> 00:13:48,900
Let me ask this problem.
Obviously, there were some
222
00:13:48,900 --> 00:13:51,200
changes if Luke comes back next
week.
223
00:13:52,500 --> 00:13:54,700
Do you do you think it's Parker
it right?
224
00:13:54,700 --> 00:13:58,100
Or do you think, do you think
Vice sticks to his or going to
225
00:13:58,100 --> 00:14:01,700
continue to rotate?
That's hard to say because
226
00:14:01,700 --> 00:14:06,400
obviously, you know, Silas did
fairly well as well, you know,
227
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:11,200
there were, there were some, I'd
say Silas didn't do any worse
228
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,000
and I've seen two new to do most
of the Season, okay?
229
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,700
So I think not seeing a drop
off, there is a positive
230
00:14:17,700 --> 00:14:20,600
outcome.
Again, we weren't playing the
231
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:24,000
level of competition.
At the defensive line that we
232
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,300
probably played throughout the
year.
233
00:14:26,300 --> 00:14:29,400
Very true.
So you got to take some of this
234
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:35,300
with a grain of salt but You
still got to play who's in front
235
00:14:35,300 --> 00:14:36,300
of you.
And if you go out there and
236
00:14:36,308 --> 00:14:39,700
handle your business regardless
of who it's against, I'll say
237
00:14:39,700 --> 00:14:43,000
this, they look better than they
looked against Middle,
238
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,600
Tennessee, and Richmond.
So, and I think Georgia Tech
239
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,400
brings more to the table than
Middle Tennessee and Richmond.
240
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,500
So I'll take that, I'll take
that.
241
00:14:54,100 --> 00:14:56,800
I will too.
I still goes back.
242
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,000
I still go back to what you
always say, put your best five
243
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,600
out there and the way we've seen
Parker play the last few weeks.
244
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:06,900
He, He might be one of the
better 5, all the changing
245
00:15:06,900 --> 00:15:10,900
inside that offensive room.
You're kind of saying we're
246
00:15:10,900 --> 00:15:13,800
seeing more positive than we are
- we're seeing the line.
247
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,800
Play with more fire.
We're seeing them play better as
248
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,700
a unit.
You know, there have been times
249
00:15:19,700 --> 00:15:22,900
it felt like early in the season
where we were, was it looked
250
00:15:22,900 --> 00:15:26,100
like this side of the line, felt
the plate.
251
00:15:26,100 --> 00:15:29,500
This side of the line did feel
the play and the next thing, you
252
00:15:29,500 --> 00:15:32,000
know, something bad happens.
So yep.
253
00:15:32,900 --> 00:15:35,800
But again, in a positive
direction on the line, now let's
254
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,100
flip over to the passing game in
Lowndes.
255
00:15:39,100 --> 00:15:42,500
Big part down.
We gave up a couple sacks in
256
00:15:42,500 --> 00:15:44,100
Bryant and you've been preaching
it.
257
00:15:44,100 --> 00:15:46,100
You've been slamming your hand
on the table.
258
00:15:46,300 --> 00:15:48,100
We finally got it.
We had some short.
259
00:15:48,100 --> 00:15:51,700
We had some good intermediate
routes, we have some screens and
260
00:15:51,700 --> 00:15:53,800
then we sprinkled in some down
field passes.
261
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,800
That actually worked.
How shocked were you that?
262
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,000
Like what you've been banging?
They finally did.
263
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,800
And we saw every, I mean, what
did Peter?
264
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:06,500
But twice, maybe three times
when we moved the ball, just
265
00:16:06,500 --> 00:16:09,300
about every yeah.
Yeah, we were moving the ball.
266
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,300
Every Drive, even in the second
half.
267
00:16:11,300 --> 00:16:14,800
We only got six points but we
were still having success.
268
00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,200
We just a lot of times either
shot ourselves in the foot,
269
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,600
whether it was a player with the
penalty or whether it was, you
270
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,600
know, a bad call at a bad time.
We really only had one one
271
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:30,700
series, I think in the second
half that was truly awful and
272
00:16:30,700 --> 00:16:36,500
we'll address that here shortly.
But yeah, it was definitely a
273
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:41,600
more focused attempt at getting
the passing game going.
274
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,700
So I like that that that that's
that's another positive, take
275
00:16:45,700 --> 00:16:48,700
away from this when they focused
effort to get The Passing game
276
00:16:48,700 --> 00:16:52,900
going and the big beneficiary of
that was Trey Turner.
277
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:59,900
Oh my God was he man his career
day. 74, 187 and a touch throw
278
00:16:59,900 --> 00:17:03,900
in the Ville Jet Sweep, egapp
194 One total yards from
279
00:17:03,900 --> 00:17:08,599
scrimmage and the display.
And the first one was mostly
280
00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:11,500
him.
It was him, it wasn't, it was a
281
00:17:11,500 --> 00:17:13,599
good design.
Yeah.
282
00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:18,200
Go back and watch, and if you
watch what it is, it's a it's a
283
00:17:18,208 --> 00:17:23,200
combo screen.
Post will route, Caleb and him.
284
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,200
Look like they're going to go
into stock block.
285
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,500
And essentially, if the guys lay
off which they did or, they
286
00:17:29,500 --> 00:17:32,500
actually came up, they run their
routes very well.
287
00:17:32,500 --> 00:17:35,800
Design concept Braxton.
Put it short.
288
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,900
If he puts it on the money Trail
runs down, the sideline doesn't
289
00:17:38,900 --> 00:17:42,600
have to make any moves.
He put it to him short which we
290
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:47,700
know is a big problem, you know,
one of his bad-looking passes of
291
00:17:47,700 --> 00:17:51,400
the day that worked out.
But tail on that run, man.
292
00:17:53,300 --> 00:17:58,100
So many elements.
Yeah, yeah.
293
00:17:58,100 --> 00:18:01,100
I mean he broke a tackle, he
dragged got in the end zone.
294
00:18:01,100 --> 00:18:03,600
I mean it was, it was a big, big
play for him.
295
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:08,500
And then that kind of really got
the kind of got everything going
296
00:18:08,500 --> 00:18:10,700
right.
Like from that point on yeah, in
297
00:18:10,700 --> 00:18:15,200
the first half the offense was
pretty much clicking and really
298
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,100
only got stopped at one time
where there was a couple of
299
00:18:18,108 --> 00:18:22,700
penalties set us back into a
long down and situation.
300
00:18:22,900 --> 00:18:24,800
It's true.
Yeah.
301
00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:29,600
And you you already said it a
little bit but Extend having one
302
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:35,100
of his better days throwing the
ball in terms of statistics, but
303
00:18:35,100 --> 00:18:38,300
a lot of the routine throws are
still looking a little wonky,
304
00:18:38,300 --> 00:18:41,700
right?
What the ones that look wonky or
305
00:18:41,900 --> 00:18:45,600
is the ones that are getting
about 20 yards downfield, right?
306
00:18:45,700 --> 00:18:49,100
Trace pass.
The one that I remember was the
307
00:18:49,100 --> 00:18:51,500
first three and out where it was
like a little comeback route
308
00:18:51,500 --> 00:18:55,700
about 15 yards and he put it
short and you're sitting there
309
00:18:55,700 --> 00:18:57,100
because it was a really good
design.
310
00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,900
In a really good call and he
puts it short.
311
00:19:00,100 --> 00:19:04,500
Batavia on Robinson.
Touchdown that ball wobbled and
312
00:19:04,500 --> 00:19:06,600
took forever kid.
Get there.
313
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:09,900
I know it was a rollout so I
don't expect it to be perfect.
314
00:19:10,900 --> 00:19:12,400
But you know, that's one of
those things.
315
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,900
You feel like a middle school
quarterback to make a better
316
00:19:15,900 --> 00:19:19,700
looking faster than that.
At least a high school
317
00:19:19,700 --> 00:19:22,500
quarterback, most of them, at
least somebody.
318
00:19:23,100 --> 00:19:26,800
Yeah, it's going to be
interesting to see how this goes
319
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:32,700
forward and I think a lot of
that's going to depend on how
320
00:19:32,700 --> 00:19:34,900
the next couple games go.
Absolutely.
321
00:19:35,300 --> 00:19:38,400
Because I think at the next
couple games don't go, well, I
322
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:44,300
think we see Tosh you have to
and then we'll see how that
323
00:19:44,300 --> 00:19:47,300
goes.
You know, thankfully one of
324
00:19:47,308 --> 00:19:50,200
those games, the coming up and
we're going to talk about that
325
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:54,800
more on Wednesday but we're
playing a team that doesn't put
326
00:19:54,800 --> 00:20:01,500
up a ton of points so we did
More than likely knock on wood,
327
00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,700
it shouldn't eat a ton of points
for that to be a w but we'll
328
00:20:05,700 --> 00:20:07,900
see.
Well say we know how things
329
00:20:07,900 --> 00:20:11,800
break how crazy it is.
The one thing that sort of drove
330
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,400
me and you crazy Brian and
continues to drive us.
331
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:21,000
Crazy is some of the third down
calls because they literally
332
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:26,000
look like a coin flip call.
It's okay, you know there's been
333
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,500
times we criticized for being
concerned. - yeah, we're going
334
00:20:28,500 --> 00:20:36,000
to criticize for that, but then
there's times where being hyper
335
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,900
aggressive is idiotic,
especially the way we're running
336
00:20:39,900 --> 00:20:43,400
the ball.
Well, there's being aggressive
337
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,300
then there's being
unnecessarily, aggressive or
338
00:20:46,300 --> 00:20:50,200
recklessly aggressive, right?
I'm going to point out, we
339
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:51,700
always talk about calculated
risk.
340
00:20:51,700 --> 00:20:54,600
We don't, we don't talk about
going out there and, you know,
341
00:20:54,608 --> 00:20:57,800
just throwing balls to the wall
and and seeing what happens when
342
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:01,100
you talk about taking calculated
risk, understanding the
343
00:21:01,100 --> 00:21:06,700
situation and where risk-taking
is beneficial for your team or
344
00:21:06,700 --> 00:21:09,600
where Ben are taking a risk.
Doesn't necessarily hurt you if
345
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,100
you don't get it.
Yep.
346
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:16,200
And Talk about third down in one
after a team, just cuts it 2-1
347
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:20,500
score and you're taking a
30-yard shot.
348
00:21:20,500 --> 00:21:24,800
Downfield with the quarterback
that has struggled to throw
349
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:29,600
routine balls all game.
Yep, it just it didn't seem
350
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:34,100
like, the right time you had had
success, you know, in that 10 to
351
00:21:34,100 --> 00:21:39,700
15, yard range, most of the
game, even when Braxton's not
352
00:21:40,300 --> 00:21:42,700
exactly throwing the Is spiral
the ball.
353
00:21:42,700 --> 00:21:44,600
Still getting there in that
range?
354
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:50,900
Why are we taking not just the
risk with the ball potentially
355
00:21:50,900 --> 00:21:54,400
but the risk of giving the team
that has a little bit of
356
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:58,700
momentum now giving the ball
back after after a quick three
357
00:21:58,700 --> 00:21:59,500
and out.
Right?
358
00:21:59,500 --> 00:22:01,500
Absolutely.
And that's why I called them.
359
00:22:01,500 --> 00:22:04,400
That's why I put it on here,
coin flips, because you don't
360
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:05,900
know what you're going to get in
that situation.
361
00:22:05,900 --> 00:22:08,900
Third and one, especially after
they scored, is you want to slow
362
00:22:08,900 --> 00:22:10,800
that momentum.
And the way we had ran the ball
363
00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,900
with Braxton.
Malachi with Rahim, even ranging
364
00:22:13,900 --> 00:22:18,000
running the jet Suite, we were
getting positive plays, we were
365
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:19,900
getting positive place so it's
one of those.
366
00:22:19,900 --> 00:22:22,400
Why not run it?
Where I got more frustrated with
367
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:23,800
it.
Brian is there were some plays
368
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:30,100
like third and 14, you know,
we're we're running inside, you
369
00:22:30,100 --> 00:22:35,500
know, inside zone or run a QB
draw versus okay.
370
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,200
That is the plate.
Take the risk.
371
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,000
That is the place.
Go downfield.
372
00:22:39,100 --> 00:22:40,700
If you miss it.
Oh, well, we're putting anyway.
373
00:22:40,700 --> 00:22:43,900
If you hit it.
Great, if you if they pick it
374
00:22:43,900 --> 00:22:46,400
well you're probably going to
put it about where they'd get
375
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:50,000
the ball but then but then
there's this whole side where
376
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,900
there were some plays where it
was stirred and you know, 10 12,
377
00:22:53,900 --> 00:22:58,100
we ran like some quick slant,
some quick passes one screen
378
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,400
where it was like I like that
call there.
379
00:23:02,100 --> 00:23:05,100
Yeah I like that call there
because you're getting in your
380
00:23:05,100 --> 00:23:10,300
playmaker somewhere between five
and eight yards, if there is
381
00:23:10,300 --> 00:23:14,500
one, missed tackle.
Like, it's the, it's the, it's
382
00:23:14,500 --> 00:23:19,400
the Taylor Robinson Mastery of
the inside screen.
383
00:23:20,100 --> 00:23:22,700
Yeah.
And we talked about all the
384
00:23:22,700 --> 00:23:25,000
time, right?
So, if you're going to throw the
385
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:29,900
ball short of the line to game,
it's got to be a ball.
386
00:23:29,900 --> 00:23:31,700
That gets your guys in space,
right?
387
00:23:31,700 --> 00:23:34,100
You can't, you can't just be
something where, you know,
388
00:23:34,100 --> 00:23:37,100
you're slamming, slamming the
ball against the line of
389
00:23:37,100 --> 00:23:39,800
scrimmage, and hoping that it
squirts out on the other side
390
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,200
for a big game.
Uh-huh.
391
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,200
Again it's this whole it's
literally he's taking the coin,
392
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,000
he's flipping it on starting 15.
I'm just going to run the ball
393
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,600
here.
All its third and one let me go
394
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:53,500
deep.
I like logic with my play
395
00:23:53,500 --> 00:23:59,400
calling, not just this might
work here and in my logic
396
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,900
doesn't mean predictable logic
just means.
397
00:24:02,300 --> 00:24:06,500
Okay, this makes sense given the
risk reward of the of the moment
398
00:24:06,500 --> 00:24:08,700
of the down and distance of the
situation.
399
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,000
Third, and one, if you tell me,
we're going to pass the ball,
400
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,700
we're going to run.
A three yard out.
401
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,200
We're going to run a little fake
inside Zone and on a 3-yard out,
402
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,500
we're going to try to put it
front shoulder to catch the
403
00:24:18,500 --> 00:24:22,500
ball, perfect sense.
It's a quick developing play or
404
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,100
think about the Gallo play that
he dropped a couple days ago.
405
00:24:25,100 --> 00:24:27,200
That was quick run.
He went and hooked up what?
406
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:29,400
Three and a half yards on the
third and two play.
407
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,900
He dropped it.
Unfortunately, but that's okay.
408
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,500
That logic makes sense.
Yeah.
409
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,500
All right, let's roll on how he
was.
410
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:43,700
We're special teams Saturday to
winning that game and I mean, I
411
00:24:43,700 --> 00:24:47,600
mean, especially Parker Roma.
I mean, and he's, he's really
412
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,900
getting to the point where I
mean, he is an absolute weapon
413
00:24:50,900 --> 00:24:56,500
for us is, you know, short short
of the, the to missed short ones
414
00:24:56,500 --> 00:24:59,400
chip chip shots early in the
season, which he's correct.
415
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,700
Yeah, he's grumpy, he's been
absolute money.
416
00:25:03,300 --> 00:25:08,000
And, you know, I'm not going to
knock him for missing, the one
417
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:13,900
he missed because he had, he had
Plus 50 had the leg slightly to
418
00:25:13,900 --> 00:25:17,600
the left.
So can I mean I'll take it and
419
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,700
you can knock the call to take
the kick there to take the
420
00:25:20,700 --> 00:25:25,300
points more than you.
Do him missing it and he and you
421
00:25:25,300 --> 00:25:27,700
don't knock it to Bunch because
he's shown, he's got the leg and
422
00:25:27,700 --> 00:25:30,100
he's more or less.
Got the accuracy to make it from
423
00:25:30,100 --> 00:25:32,300
there.
It's just, I mean that's that's
424
00:25:32,300 --> 00:25:35,600
a coin flip call that you gotta,
you know, note take that take
425
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:38,300
the risk if you want the points
or take the risk, if you don't
426
00:25:38,300 --> 00:25:40,700
get the points, you're giving up
the field position and you know
427
00:25:40,700 --> 00:25:43,600
what it is.
Spots to the 48-yard urchin in
428
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,900
the first half, you know,
playing Tempo getting in range
429
00:25:47,900 --> 00:25:51,200
and then kicking it through
like, that, that takes some
430
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,300
nerves.
So, yeah, he's one of those
431
00:25:53,300 --> 00:25:55,600
guys, you feel, if you get in a
situation late, the way he's
432
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:57,000
been kicking.
It can work.
433
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,600
Yeah.
Peter Moore again, you know, I'm
434
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,300
team.
He's got boom.
435
00:26:04,100 --> 00:26:08,300
He's got touch when I say touch.
If you he's trying to pin, you
436
00:26:08,500 --> 00:26:11,400
he puts the wedge.
If he gets the distant control,
437
00:26:11,500 --> 00:26:12,500
Right?
And it lands on the one.
438
00:26:12,500 --> 00:26:14,800
It's coming back.
So it's not rolling into the end
439
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,100
zone and the accuracy to the
sideline.
440
00:26:17,100 --> 00:26:21,600
I mean, he's 18 and if he can
envelop, you get bigger and get
441
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,300
his leg even stronger than what
it is.
442
00:26:23,900 --> 00:26:27,100
He's going to be on an NFL team
and for 25 years, without a
443
00:26:27,100 --> 00:26:30,100
towel.
Yeah, he's already at where most
444
00:26:30,100 --> 00:26:32,300
second-year kickers are the real
good.
445
00:26:32,300 --> 00:26:33,300
Second York.
Yes.
446
00:26:34,500 --> 00:26:37,200
So if he can continue that
trajectory that's going to be
447
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,600
big for him, that's going to put
him in NFL conversations.
448
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,000
So that's going to be huge and I
like to see it.
449
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,000
I like out the gate that, you
know, special teams.
450
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,300
We had two big question marks
coming into the season in the
451
00:26:51,300 --> 00:26:53,500
kicking game.
And both of those have been,
452
00:26:54,100 --> 00:26:56,800
definitely more more assets than
they've been liabilities the
453
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:01,300
whole year abso-freakin'-lutely,
and we always talk about hidden
454
00:27:01,300 --> 00:27:04,000
yardage.
We talk about it with Romo, 10
455
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,700
yardage there because you're
getting the points.
456
00:27:05,700 --> 00:27:08,900
When you're not expected more,
pending people deep Taylor
457
00:27:08,900 --> 00:27:12,800
Robinson is another, just he He
eats into net punting average is
458
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,000
anytime.
He gets his hands on the ball
459
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,500
and this week, he had 31 total
yards.
460
00:27:18,500 --> 00:27:19,900
He had a little seven yard run
that.
461
00:27:19,900 --> 00:27:21,900
I think he started like at the
24.
462
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:26,000
He got it over the 30 and then
he had the big 24-yard run that
463
00:27:26,100 --> 00:27:27,900
really helped with field
position.
464
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:33,000
It would not surprise me if the
next month would not surprise
465
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:36,300
me.
Is if they said just don't kick
466
00:27:36,300 --> 00:27:38,700
it to him, he's a risk to take
it to the house.
467
00:27:38,700 --> 00:27:41,200
He always eats into our net
punt.
468
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,100
You know, aim at 10 to 12 yards,
short, and angle.
469
00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:47,300
It will deal.
Will will will will control the
470
00:27:47,300 --> 00:27:49,500
outcome of the situation.
Yeah.
471
00:27:49,500 --> 00:27:51,800
Where he can't get the ball in
his hand to potentially make a
472
00:27:51,808 --> 00:27:53,600
big one.
Absolutely.
473
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:54,700
Absolutely.
Yeah.
474
00:27:54,700 --> 00:27:59,300
He's definitely out there,
helping us maintain that field
475
00:27:59,300 --> 00:28:02,800
position.
So now we got Pretty good
476
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,700
returns.
We've had pretty good returns
477
00:28:04,700 --> 00:28:06,300
all year.
I know King was doing a lot
478
00:28:06,300 --> 00:28:07,800
better when he was healthy, get
them.
479
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,100
But the return game has been
been good in the kickoffs.
480
00:28:11,100 --> 00:28:15,100
Tay Rob has been excellent on
punt return, especially for a
481
00:28:15,100 --> 00:28:18,100
unit that last year was played
by Bluffs.
482
00:28:18,500 --> 00:28:22,200
Off my hand and not really able
to find a guy that could be a
483
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,700
constant back there, to Rob has
stepped up this year and not
484
00:28:25,700 --> 00:28:31,500
just eliminated that aspect of
it but become a big asset in
485
00:28:31,500 --> 00:28:34,100
terms.
Of helping with field position
486
00:28:34,700 --> 00:28:37,500
and yet the kicker's doing their
thing, man.
487
00:28:37,500 --> 00:28:40,500
I mean, it's been a, it's been a
solid effort on special teams.
488
00:28:40,500 --> 00:28:45,100
So shout out to the our
coordinator Chavez there and
489
00:28:45,700 --> 00:28:47,700
just doing a good job.
Absolutely.
490
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:49,300
Get these guys are ready for
game day.
491
00:28:49,500 --> 00:28:51,500
Absolutely.
All right, Brian before we turn
492
00:28:51,500 --> 00:28:53,300
it over to the defensive side of
the ball.
493
00:28:53,500 --> 00:28:56,700
We are going to take a quick
pause for a message from our
494

Dash report.
Now back to the episode All
502
00:29:25,900 --> 00:29:27,400
right.
Brian a tale.
503
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,400
As old as time for any Virginia
Tech defense, running
504
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,500
quarterbacks.
And all those Sims didn't quite
505
00:29:34,500 --> 00:29:39,300
do what Schrader did, we're what
the guy for Notre Dame?
506
00:29:39,300 --> 00:29:43,100
Did he still had a solid day?
11 carries 60-yard.
507
00:29:43,100 --> 00:29:44,800
We've been sacked him a couple
times into that.
508
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:49,600
So he's probably true.
Carrie was probably probably
509
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,400
closer to 80.
So let me ask this.
510
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:57,500
Is it the linebackers and the
secondary or is it are we having
511
00:29:57,700 --> 00:30:00,600
missing tackles or we haven't
defensive line integrity?
512
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,900
And I got to see this yesterday
with the Niners and Camera,
513
00:30:03,900 --> 00:30:07,700
who's calling the game, but he
showed in the first half how we
514
00:30:07,700 --> 00:30:10,000
weren't in the right spots?
So we were leaving, Justin
515
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,700
filled gaps to run through and
then he showed the adjustments.
516
00:30:13,700 --> 00:30:16,300
And it's like, there's nowhere
for him to go because they're
517
00:30:16,300 --> 00:30:19,200
keeping sound quality.
What is it for this team right
518
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,200
now?
While it's a little bit of both,
519
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,600
it's more of the former than the
latter.
520
00:30:25,900 --> 00:30:30,000
The D line is more or less doing
what they need to do that where
521
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,800
they're struggling is actually
on backside contain more than
522
00:30:33,800 --> 00:30:36,900
they are on necessarily Gap
Integrity.
523
00:30:37,100 --> 00:30:41,000
Okay, A lot of times on with
backside contain is that they're
524
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,000
they're relinquishing that
leverage to the quarterbacks
525
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:49,300
quicker than they need to and
then you know, the quarterbacks
526
00:30:49,300 --> 00:30:52,300
got a little bit more To get to
the edge than they do to meet
527
00:30:52,300 --> 00:30:55,300
them there.
So that's a little bit of a
528
00:30:55,308 --> 00:30:58,800
problem, but I think the bigger
problem is some of those missing
529
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:03,100
tackles and some of the safety
fits that we've had the last few
530
00:31:03,100 --> 00:31:07,600
weeks, they haven't been awful.
The problem is that when they
531
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:12,400
have happened, it's very much
like last year where it's when I
532
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,900
want to stay if he doesn't get
where they need to be, that's
533
00:31:14,900 --> 00:31:17,000
that's when you get those big
plays coming up.
534
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:22,100
It's really hard to stop.
Way for going from going less
535
00:31:22,100 --> 00:31:25,000
than 20, if the safety misses,
the tackle in the fit.
536
00:31:25,100 --> 00:31:29,100
All right upside.
Probably for the next month
537
00:31:29,500 --> 00:31:32,600
until we get to UVA.
We're not going to have guys who
538
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,400
are super Fleet of foot.
Another got dudes, got a little
539
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:40,600
bit of athleticism, but whoever
we see a b c does not and
540
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:44,900
Miami's to indict, similar to
the kid at do a little bit of
541
00:31:44,900 --> 00:31:50,700
athleticism, but none of that
crap to be worried about. let me
542
00:31:50,700 --> 00:31:56,300
ask this, all right, if I told
you that gives was going to have
543
00:31:56,300 --> 00:32:00,800
100 plus on less than 15
carries, close to 50 yards,
544
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:08,700
receiving But how would you have
felt on Saturday at 11:55?
545
00:32:12,300 --> 00:32:14,700
Yardage, I wouldn't have felt
really good about their.
546
00:32:14,700 --> 00:32:17,900
Like, that's probably, that's
probably a bad day for us.
547
00:32:17,900 --> 00:32:23,200
But when I slipped in no
touchdowns Feel much better, but
548
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:26,300
much better.
And and it it was a couple
549
00:32:26,300 --> 00:32:28,800
things.
I mean I think overall we did a
550
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:33,500
good job of being where we
needed to be a lot of times.
551
00:32:33,500 --> 00:32:37,000
I think the big thing that we
had trouble with was was getting
552
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,600
guys to the ground.
Consistently.
553
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,500
I mean the last few weeks we
have become a questionable
554
00:32:42,500 --> 00:32:46,800
tackling team we've reverted
that's a little class earning
555
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,000
and we'll see if that Trend
continues or if that tight.
556
00:32:51,100 --> 00:32:54,100
Ends up a little bit.
I don't know if it is just a
557
00:32:54,100 --> 00:32:56,600
season wearing on and some, you
know, technique going out the
558
00:32:56,608 --> 00:33:01,200
window a little bit or what it
may be, but we've definitely
559
00:33:01,300 --> 00:33:04,400
struggled with getting guys to
the turf consistently and I mean
560
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:11,200
one was like, I can't remember
if it was if it was Sims or or
561
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,700
Gibbs.
But we had one, we missed like
562
00:33:13,700 --> 00:33:17,400
three tackles and one of those
was like should have been
563
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,700
routine should have been yes,
get him on the ground and then
564
00:33:19,700 --> 00:33:22,600
all of a sudden he squirts out
Breaks another tackle and next
565
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,100
thing, you know, he's in the Red
Zone.
566
00:33:24,300 --> 00:33:27,100
Yeah.
And we got bailed out a couple
567
00:33:27,100 --> 00:33:28,700
times.
There was two big plays that
568
00:33:28,700 --> 00:33:30,700
gives had they got called back
for.
569
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:33,100
I think one was definitely
holding.
570
00:33:33,100 --> 00:33:34,900
I think the other was a block in
the back.
571
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:36,400
Yeah.
What was a block in the back?
572
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:40,200
They talked about that was like,
it, was that borderline call?
573
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,000
But hey, sometimes they go your
way.
574
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,800
Sometimes they don't, right?
Yeah, yes.
575
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:47,900
I mean, we got bailed out on
the, like I said, one of those
576
00:33:47,900 --> 00:33:49,900
went for a touchdown.
Long touchdown.
577
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,000
Yep.
Dead ended up getting put back.
578
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:56,200
I think it like the 35-yard line
or something like that.
579
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:59,400
So it was still, you know, he
cut still cut the field in half
580
00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:02,700
but it wasn't the huge, you
know, 60 plus yard touchdown
581
00:34:02,700 --> 00:34:05,600
that it was initially there,
exactly.
582
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:09,500
I think the way we have to look
at it especially with him is the
583
00:34:09,500 --> 00:34:12,300
way Gibbs, how highly regarded
was me again.
584
00:34:12,300 --> 00:34:15,300
He was a top 50 player, a top
five running back coming out
585
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:19,000
just, you know, two years ago.
Did you have to feel okay?
586
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,600
Because He had 11 and he had 100
plus.
587
00:34:22,900 --> 00:34:25,900
But once you take that 60-plus
yarder that he ran later in the
588
00:34:25,900 --> 00:34:29,100
second half out, we were getting
to the ground.
589
00:34:29,300 --> 00:34:31,000
We were meeting at the point of
attack.
590
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:36,400
And that's what you and I and I
found when our defensive line is
591
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,000
getting there.
We do a pretty good job of
592
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:43,199
getting guys to the ground.
It's when things when gaps are
593
00:34:43,199 --> 00:34:46,000
there, when the holes are there,
when the safeties have to come
594
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:48,900
up and the gaps a little bit
bigger than you like?
595
00:34:48,900 --> 00:34:51,199
And they've got to make that
tackle in space and there's
596
00:34:51,199 --> 00:34:54,500
still some wiggle room.
Yeah, that's when things get a
597
00:34:54,507 --> 00:34:57,900
little dicey and that's true
with postings.
598
00:34:57,900 --> 00:35:00,900
I mean, those are, those are
just generally harder tackles to
599
00:35:00,900 --> 00:35:04,500
make Make but you still got a
big sure that you're getting
600
00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:07,700
guys to the turf and if you're
able to fit them up, you got to
601
00:35:07,700 --> 00:35:09,300
get them to the ground.
It's true.
602
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:13,000
Now one guy who did have a good
day Brian statistic wise was
603
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,600
Alan Tisdale 12 total tackles
two and a half for lost even had
604
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,300
a quarterback hurry and I know
he had some missteps here and
605
00:35:20,300 --> 00:35:24,200
there but is this one of these
things where is this like is
606
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,300
this just had a really good day
was it the type of scheme we're
607
00:35:27,300 --> 00:35:31,100
playing or is it one of those
things where airs you saw a few
608
00:35:31,100 --> 00:35:33,000
weeks ago?
He's clean them up.
609
00:35:33,100 --> 00:35:36,800
Well he's cleaned them up where
they're not as they're not as
610
00:35:36,900 --> 00:35:40,000
penal as they were before.
Yeah.
611
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,400
I mean that's really hard to say
I think we need.
612
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,800
You know the jury is still out
at this point.
613
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:49,200
I think I need a little bit more
more tape to see if this is a
614
00:35:49,500 --> 00:35:53,500
positive trend.
Whether this is something scheme
615
00:35:53,500 --> 00:35:57,800
wise that they did differently
or if this is something that was
616
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,000
just kind of a kind of a
one-off, you know.
617
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:04,200
Hopefully we're building on
something going forward.
618
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,500
I didn't see it.
I didn't see anything overtly
619
00:36:06,500 --> 00:36:10,400
that said they changed how they
were deploying him or anything
620
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,900
like that.
Yeah, I think the only person
621
00:36:13,900 --> 00:36:16,300
they that they deployed a little
bit differently which actually
622
00:36:16,300 --> 00:36:18,800
helped with one of the things we
talked about last week was
623
00:36:19,500 --> 00:36:24,000
seeing bar no stand up a whole
lot more This week and I think
624
00:36:24,008 --> 00:36:28,000
that that helped with his
overall conditioning and play to
625
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:29,500
his strengths, a little bit more
as well.
626
00:36:29,500 --> 00:36:33,700
But when we do at Tisdale, like
I said, I think the jury is
627
00:36:33,700 --> 00:36:37,500
still out on whether, you know,
this is going to be something of
628
00:36:37,500 --> 00:36:40,200
a trend or whether it's just a
one-off good day for him.
629
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,700
But either way, you know, he did
pretty well there was like, you
630
00:36:43,700 --> 00:36:47,700
know, like everybody there's a
play here, play there that you
631
00:36:47,700 --> 00:36:50,600
did, make that you could have.
But in terms of his overall
632
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,600
game, probably, One of the
better games.
633
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,100
He's played all season.
Yeah, good for you, hopefully
634
00:36:55,100 --> 00:36:58,500
build upon it, especially going
up to the stretch run here.
635
00:36:59,100 --> 00:37:01,300
All right, Brian.
Something that we had harked on
636
00:37:01,300 --> 00:37:04,300
and against the Syracuse game of
how bad we were on the money
637
00:37:04,300 --> 00:37:05,800
Downs, on third, and fourth
down.
638
00:37:06,300 --> 00:37:09,500
Well, this week significantly
better on those two downs,
639
00:37:09,500 --> 00:37:14,000
combine 4415 for Georgia Tech,
definitely hurt them.
640
00:37:14,300 --> 00:37:17,900
Now, one of those for was the
touchdown where tomorrow Connor
641
00:37:17,900 --> 00:37:22,900
did get sort of burned by
McGowan and McGowan we know is
642
00:37:22,900 --> 00:37:27,500
probably their best overall wide
receiver but you know, just
643
00:37:27,500 --> 00:37:31,700
looking at it is the field like
was just just a game Flow.
644
00:37:31,700 --> 00:37:35,900
Like we got a head so it hurt
them or was it something
645
00:37:35,900 --> 00:37:38,600
different?
Where even when they were they
646
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,900
had managerial situations, they
didn't know what was coming from
647
00:37:41,900 --> 00:37:47,800
us in those situations.
Probably a little bit of both.
648
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:55,100
I think we've been better on
third down this year
649
00:37:56,200 --> 00:38:00,700
significantly compared to last
year but fourth down has been
650
00:38:00,700 --> 00:38:01,700
awful.
Yes.
651
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:05,000
And I think this is just kind of
a.
652
00:38:05,300 --> 00:38:08,900
We finally put that Trend in
place for a full four quarters.
653
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:13,200
At least on third down.
I think third down was probably
654
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,400
that was probably our best third
down.
655
00:38:15,500 --> 00:38:18,500
Yeah, performance, all year 33
for 12.
656
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,600
I mean, yeah, I'll take that
every day.
657
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:28,600
Yeah, I'll take 5412 every day.
Yeah, so, I mean, they'll on
658
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:32,900
third down, I mean, there's not
a lot to complain about, you
659
00:38:32,908 --> 00:38:35,900
know, I think we put them in
situations where they felt like
660
00:38:35,900 --> 00:38:39,200
they needed to get first downs
because they were playing a
661
00:38:39,207 --> 00:38:42,200
little bit of catch-up.
Especially as we went further
662
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:48,600
into the the second quarter and
Third quarter, but I think we
663
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:52,500
did it.
We just did a good job of Taking
664
00:38:52,500 --> 00:38:55,100
what they were giving us and
kind of understanding, all
665
00:38:55,100 --> 00:38:59,200
right, well, if we get them to
the ground here will get off the
666
00:38:59,207 --> 00:39:01,000
field understanding that down
and distance.
667
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:02,900
And I think we did a good job of
understanding that down in
668
00:39:02,900 --> 00:39:06,300
distance and not giving them any
more than we could allow, but
669
00:39:06,300 --> 00:39:10,000
still doing a pretty consistent
job of getting them to the turf.
670
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,000
All right.
Well, something else we got to
671
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:13,700
do.
We haven't seen too many of we
672
00:39:13,700 --> 00:39:16,400
it was a fourth down, but we got
a red zone stop.
673
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:21,000
You mentioned to me, you thought
Collins was chasing points.
674
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:26,900
yeah, I mean, but isn't that
sort of beneficial if a guy's
675
00:39:26,900 --> 00:39:32,300
trying to chase points because
they're down, you know, the way
676
00:39:32,300 --> 00:39:35,600
we had played all year, you
almost feel like if you look
677
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,700
statistically it, what we had
done on fourth down and what we
678
00:39:38,700 --> 00:39:41,800
had done in the Red Zone, you
want to taking the same risk,
679
00:39:43,700 --> 00:39:47,800
He's chasing points there and I
say that only because of how
680
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,300
much time was left on the clock,
but I get your point.
681
00:39:50,300 --> 00:39:55,100
If you look at historically this
season on fourth down and Red
682
00:39:55,100 --> 00:39:58,600
Zone that was better than a coin
flip, right more than enough
683
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:02,700
coin, flip significantly better
than a coin flip and especially
684
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,100
you know, when you when you put
the Red Zone factor in there.
685
00:40:05,700 --> 00:40:08,100
So finally getting a actual true
Red Zone.
686
00:40:08,100 --> 00:40:14,200
Stop that wasn't a turnover and
it was The turnover in terms of
687
00:40:14,207 --> 00:40:17,800
forced turnover.
Not a turnover on downs and
688
00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:20,000
getting them off the field.
They're obviously you saved
689
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:25,500
three, you gave your defense of
confidence and the defense more
690
00:40:25,500 --> 00:40:27,800
or less played well in the
second half and really the whole
691
00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:31,600
game.
Overall, you know, missed
692
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,500
tackles the side.
That's really the biggest
693
00:40:33,500 --> 00:40:37,300
complaint I've got about the
defense, I knew that their
694
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:41,000
tandem in the backfield we're
going to put up some yards and
695
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,000
they did but we did a good job.
Stop, you know, that one
696
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:48,400
touchdown on fourth and one
aside fourth.
697
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,600
I forget what it was fourth and
whatever that when Connor got
698
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:55,700
beat, that play is side, we did
a good job.
699
00:40:55,700 --> 00:41:00,200
The whole game in the secondary
covering those wideouts.
700
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:03,400
Yep.
Definitely, you know you only
701
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,000
have 180 our past and I know we
talked about it.
702
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:09,700
They're primarily a run days
team but they were still two top
703
00:41:09,700 --> 00:41:15,300
60 ranked in both passing.
And running the ball so you know
704
00:41:15,300 --> 00:41:17,300
you're going to see more Ron but
you knew they could be
705
00:41:17,300 --> 00:41:20,300
successful throwing the ball.
So I think that was a such a big
706
00:41:20,300 --> 00:41:24,500
key and again.
There were two guys.
707
00:41:24,500 --> 00:41:26,000
There were two guys on the
field.
708
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:30,800
That could really beat us.
Jeff Sims and Gibbs.
709
00:41:31,100 --> 00:41:33,400
They didn't beat us, they didn't
beat us.
710
00:41:33,700 --> 00:41:36,600
And if you told me, we're
sitting here talking about loss
711
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:44,500
today, I'd say maybe Sims has 20
30 more yards and gives has one
712
00:41:44,500 --> 00:41:49,700
or two more touchdowns but we
held last piece KRON4, we take a
713
00:41:49,707 --> 00:41:52,500
look at the pickles and wrap
this thing up this afternoon.
714
00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:56,100
What about the play of Jalen
Griffin, man?
715
00:41:58,000 --> 00:41:59,700
Yeah.
I mean, he played well, he was
716
00:41:59,700 --> 00:42:01,800
in that second line of that.
Defensive end plate.
717
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:07,800
Played really well, you know, I
don't know if this was kind of a
718
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:11,200
boost, his brother for the
Griffin, the Griffin Bowl.
719
00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:15,100
Yeah.
Whether it was just a little
720
00:42:15,100 --> 00:42:18,500
bit, lighter competition or
whether it was something where
721
00:42:18,500 --> 00:42:21,000
he's, you know, putting pieces
together and starting to
722
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:22,300
starting to turn the corner
there.
723
00:42:23,100 --> 00:42:25,600
But that strip sack was a big
moment in the game because that
724
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:27,700
set us up for one of the two
field goals.
725
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,800
As we got to the second half
that ended up being key and
726
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,300
closing this one out.
So big shout out to Jaylin Griff
727
00:42:34,300 --> 00:42:35,600
and that was a good game for
him.
728
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:39,600
Hopefully see, see more of that
against BC coming up this week.
729
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:40,700
It's true.
And he should have had the
730
00:42:40,707 --> 00:42:45,400
second sack because the that was
a soft roughing the passer call
731
00:42:45,700 --> 00:42:49,200
that he took her some
supermodel, soft Charmin, soft
732
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:53,000
taking down Sims, that would
have put them in like I think
733
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,300
forth and 26, or something
insane.
734
00:42:56,300 --> 00:43:01,900
Like, you know, But for him
seeing just hymns take a step
735
00:43:02,500 --> 00:43:05,600
and again with the Hope becomes
it's not only with the second
736
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:09,200
line is some mixing and matching
with the first team guys, to
737
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:12,300
give them extra breathers.
We've talked about it.
738
00:43:12,300 --> 00:43:14,400
We talked about Cole Nelson
coming on.
739
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:19,200
I think Jalen has the skill set.
You just have to deploy him at
740
00:43:19,200 --> 00:43:21,500
the right time.
I don't think just looking at
741
00:43:21,500 --> 00:43:25,300
his size, you can't expect him
to go into a lot of running
742
00:43:25,300 --> 00:43:31,800
downs but When it's those second
and long chances, let him go in.
743
00:43:32,900 --> 00:43:35,800
And then, you know, put Garbodor
barno out and then flip them
744
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:37,800
back in if he becomes third and
short.
745
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:41,100
Like let's be wise with how we
rotate him, because I think he
746
00:43:41,100 --> 00:43:44,000
can become that guy.
We need to give them those
747
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:45,600
breath.
So when we get in those tight
748
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:48,100
games late, they're not done for
the day.
749
00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,000
Yeah, I mean he's the ideal guy
to give bar know a blow their
750
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:56,000
he's the ideal guy to come in
opposite Cole Nelson.
751
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:59,900
I think the problem that we were
having early on is that our
752
00:43:59,900 --> 00:44:05,200
second line was pairing him with
Eli and and then that that
753
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,900
that's that's the way to
undersized to be something that
754
00:44:07,900 --> 00:44:12,300
you can roll for more than to
place a few Downs of a series.
755
00:44:12,300 --> 00:44:17,600
So I think that's the big
problem in so having cold
756
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,100
Nelson, come on, I think maybe
You something that's helping
757
00:44:20,100 --> 00:44:23,400
Griffin really utilize his
talents a little bit more
758
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:29,000
because he's got a bigger body
opposite him that can do some of
759
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,900
those things to help out in the
running game.
760
00:44:31,900 --> 00:44:36,200
Where yeah you can still run at
Jalen maybe but you know you'll
761
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,000
he's got somebody on the
backside of that can kind of
762
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:42,200
clean some of that up and it
can't run both directions.
763
00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:46,600
Absolutely.
Well, Brian prediction wise I
764
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:48,500
think Georgia Tech completely
wrong.
765
00:44:48,500 --> 00:44:51,400
Glad to Be wrong.
You went for jigna Tech and we
766
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:56,800
did nine not 3.
So you know super shocked me
767
00:44:57,900 --> 00:44:59,900
only marginally shocked you this
week.
768
00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:03,900
Yeah only marginally.
I think the thing here is that
769
00:45:04,500 --> 00:45:09,400
you know I think some of this
was pessimism was fully setting
770
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:10,400
in.
Yes.
771
00:45:10,500 --> 00:45:14,900
Still in and it's still in and
and I think the thing that we
772
00:45:14,900 --> 00:45:18,600
need to realize here is that
because pessimism is set in we
773
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:22,200
can't Overreact to this outcome
either can't because this is an
774
00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:27,100
expected outcome at best, right?
Like we expect to win by more
775
00:45:27,100 --> 00:45:30,600
than a touchdown against this
type of Georgia Tech Team every
776
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:34,200
year.
So let's not beat our chest.
777
00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,800
We can be happy with the with
the wind, which we are very
778
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:41,700
happy with the win super happy.
But let's not recalibrate based
779
00:45:41,700 --> 00:45:45,400
on this win.
We still need to do other things
780
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,600
against better competition
before we start saying.
781
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:49,500
All right.
Right.
782
00:45:50,500 --> 00:45:54,000
We're making a turn here.
Exactly, exactly.
783
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:58,300
So so grain of salt, but good,
good, wind players played hard,
784
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:01,100
you love that and they play
hard.
785
00:46:01,100 --> 00:46:05,000
Every game Win, Lose execution,
errors, coaching errors, all
786
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,100
that.
I mean they've been putting it
787
00:46:07,100 --> 00:46:09,500
all out there.
So as you respect them for that,
788
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:12,700
you absolutely have to respect
him for that, especially what
789
00:46:12,700 --> 00:46:14,900
happened in three of the four
games prior.
790
00:46:15,300 --> 00:46:17,400
So super, super shout out to
them.
791
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,600
And actually for the five games
For that.
792
00:46:20,100 --> 00:46:23,400
All right Ron, you almost did
it.
793
00:46:24,900 --> 00:46:32,100
So glorify his brother closed
Circle was 9:00 and 1:00 and I
794
00:46:32,107 --> 00:46:34,500
want to read down.
Just so y'all know what he got,
795
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:36,800
Miami pit.
He took mommy in the points.
796
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:38,100
Miami wins out.
Right?
797
00:46:38,300 --> 00:46:40,500
Syracuse at home.
He laid the six Syracuse.
798
00:46:40,500 --> 00:46:43,600
Won by two touchdowns.
Took wait, wait!
799
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:46,300
Blows the doors off Duke.
Could have what?
800
00:46:46,300 --> 00:46:49,600
You probably could have laid 33
in that one so Good doubled it
801
00:46:49,600 --> 00:46:53,500
up, is he say comes back,
handles Louisville, Notre Dame.
802
00:46:53,500 --> 00:46:59,500
Runs away from UNC late B, why
you not only covers the two and
803
00:46:59,500 --> 00:47:05,700
a half, almost hang 70 on UVA.
In Provo, billing API, are they
804
00:47:05,700 --> 00:47:10,200
easily be Texas state line else?
Forty five to seven was the
805
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:16,500
final anyone who gave took Ohio
state, land, 80 and a half
806
00:47:16,500 --> 00:47:19,600
points has not watched any of
their Games.
807
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,300
They were coming in hot, they
had played trash.
808
00:47:23,300 --> 00:47:26,500
Bronwyn Penn State.
And then the big matchup of the
809
00:47:26,500 --> 00:47:28,200
day he tooks party in the
points.
810
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:34,600
Sparty wins out, right?
And probably even the way we
811
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:36,500
regardless of that game for you
were probably going to cover
812
00:47:36,500 --> 00:47:37,700
that.
Yep.
813
00:47:37,700 --> 00:47:45,400
So 330, Florida, State, Clemson.
There's about 12 seconds left on
814
00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:50,000
the clock, Florida, State's down
in stages down three, and it's
815
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:56,200
the ultimate bad beat.
Ultimate bad beat since Lee.
816
00:47:56,200 --> 00:48:00,700
There was a it was a fumble
scoop and score scoop and score
817
00:48:00,700 --> 00:48:05,500
with 3 seconds left.
To draw.
818
00:48:06,300 --> 00:48:08,600
We got it at 10.
We did not get it at nine and a
819
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:09,800
half.
I don't think we would have
820
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:14,700
changed either at nine and a
half from FSU, and it doesn't
821
00:48:14,700 --> 00:48:17,900
really change a ton in the, in
our, in our matchups either
822
00:48:17,900 --> 00:48:20,900
because we both went with with
FSU here.
823
00:48:20,900 --> 00:48:24,400
So no, don't change it.
It will just move the draw into
824
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:26,400
the into the loss column for
both of us.
825
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:31,300
Yeah.
But what this week did do is, we
826
00:48:31,300 --> 00:48:34,100
are going to have a race down
the home stretch.
827
00:48:35,300 --> 00:48:37,400
Even as crazy.
And as bad as my weekend,
828
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:44,900
started a huge ACC Perfection
for me 63 and one to keep a
829
00:48:44,900 --> 00:48:49,100
one-game lead Brian's at 5140
and one.
830
00:48:49,100 --> 00:48:55,000
I'm at 52:39 and one.
So made it three games this week
831
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:59,900
Made Up 3 games this week, which
I want to do like that myself on
832
00:48:59,900 --> 00:49:01,800
the back for you.
Going - enough.
833
00:49:02,500 --> 00:49:04,600
I didn't lose them.
Yeah.
834
00:49:06,300 --> 00:49:09,500
You at least were better than
the the coin flip to keep the
835
00:49:09,500 --> 00:49:11,900
lead.
I was better.
836
00:49:12,300 --> 00:49:16,300
Hey, I was two out of three.
I mean I don't trust PC anymore
837
00:49:16,300 --> 00:49:22,000
so I will pick them to beat us
because that's been my Mo don't
838
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:23,400
trust them.
They're beating us then.
839
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:27,600
But yeah, it was, it was a fun
thing to watch it.
840
00:49:27,607 --> 00:49:31,600
When I woke up on Sunday morning
and started looking, I woke up.
841
00:49:32,700 --> 00:49:35,300
Like, in the middle of the night
and I rolled over and I looked
842
00:49:35,300 --> 00:49:40,500
at the phone and I saw it was
like 45-42 UVA and that's why I
843
00:49:40,500 --> 00:49:43,300
mean we lost that one.
Didn't pay attention to how much
844
00:49:43,300 --> 00:49:45,600
time was left.
Turn it over, turn it over
845
00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:47,400
again.
When I wake up five hours later
846
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:54,200
66 245, how much time was left
in that game to scored for three
847
00:49:54,200 --> 00:49:56,700
touchdowns and a field goal?
It's like, oh yeah, I was
848
00:49:56,700 --> 00:49:58,700
looking like early third quarter
here.
849
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:03,400
It was like 2:00 in the morning.
It felt like I don't It was man.
850
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:09,300
So again you know this is our
Monday episode, we will be back
851
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:13,500
crossing our fingers back to
normal time Wednesday.
852
00:50:14,100 --> 00:50:16,900
Yep, 9:30.
And then hopefully next Sunday.
853
00:50:16,900 --> 00:50:19,900
We're back at 9:30.
Brian, anything else you want to
854
00:50:19,900 --> 00:50:21,400
talk about before we close it up
here?
855
00:50:22,100 --> 00:50:25,200
I think we're good to go, man.
I need some light work of that
856
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:28,100
one.
We did just under an hour just
857
00:50:28,100 --> 00:50:30,600
under an hour, I'm bad at all.
