This week we recap Thursday Night's excruciating 1 point loss to NC State in Raleigh. We also take a look at the moments in the game that discouraged us and the moments that gave us some hope. We then turn the page to Georgia Tech as the Hokies look to add another one in the win column against a banged up Yellow Jackets squad.

15 minutes later than we were
hoping for which considering the
18
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:56,500
late start and all that, not
bad, not bad, not bad at all.
19
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,900
And you know we thought about
maybe moving it to Wednesday,
20
00:01:59,900 --> 00:02:04,600
but then that Give me three
extra late nights and I was
21
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,300
like, nah, screw that.
I'm let's get these days gonna
22
00:02:06,300 --> 00:02:09,699
be late regardless.
Let's just go, let's talk about

00:02:09,699 --> 00:02:12,500
everything college football.
Let's talk about Georgia Tech

this week.
Let's talk about the cfp.
25
00:02:15,300 --> 00:02:19,100
In a little while here.
Let's talk about the new Big 12
26
00:02:19,100 --> 00:02:21,900
deal, but Brian, let's let's
kick it off and let's go back
27
00:02:21,900 --> 00:02:25,800
more heartbreak for the Hokies.
Let's recap NC State Hokies fall
28
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,400
2221 on Thursday night, and it's
one of those.
29
00:02:30,500 --> 00:02:32,800
Stories where it wasn't like
Miami.
30
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:37,700
It wasn't us clawing our way
back. 18-point lead in the
31
00:02:37,700 --> 00:02:40,000
later, part of the third and we
blow it man.
32
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,600
Just brutal.
I went to bed at like one
33
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,600
because it took a while to come
down.
34
00:02:46,300 --> 00:02:47,700
Just oh yeah.
Oh yeah.
35
00:02:48,700 --> 00:02:52,800
I think it was, it was while
they were reviewing.
36
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,300
The Grant Wells touchdown that
gave us that lead.
37
00:02:57,300 --> 00:03:01,000
I ran upstairs to get my wife,
something I was like, I'm not
38
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,200
trying to jinx this shit but
we're up 18.
39
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,600
I didn't think we'd be here.
I don't know, it's essentially
40
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,800
from that for I was like I don't
know what to do with my hands.
41
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:15,500
I'll do my hands.
Yay and then, you know, I come
42
00:03:15,500 --> 00:03:19,000
up later.
You know, it's after midnight
43
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,100
she's like how he had to finish
out his like it's after
44
00:03:21,100 --> 00:03:22,100
midnight.
What the fuck?
45
00:03:22,100 --> 00:03:23,600
Do you think happened?
What do you think happened?
46
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,900
It's midnight.
Well, I had a few guys in the
47
00:03:25,900 --> 00:03:28,700
neighborhood over and two of my
neighbors.
48
00:03:28,900 --> 00:03:33,500
Shout out been shout out mace
Eysan their Tech alums and the
49
00:03:33,500 --> 00:03:37,400
other two guys aren't and when
we went up 18 one of the non
50
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:42,000
Hokies said y'all got this in
the bag 18 and been looked at
51
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,500
him shadow.
Look like you haven't watched us
52
00:03:44,500 --> 00:03:46,400
play this year has first time
huh?
53
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,500
And thus began the roll down and
what and I just this year and I
54
00:03:52,508 --> 00:03:56,900
mean we've seen this movie play
out for a while for the Hokies
55
00:03:56,900 --> 00:04:01,000
so mean as soon as as soon as
that first touchdown, Afternoon
56
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:06,100
with the ease that it happened.
I was like oh okay for a long
57
00:04:06,100 --> 00:04:09,500
fourth quarter we are and we
were win or lose is it's going
58
00:04:09,500 --> 00:04:11,400
to be way more interesting than
it.
59
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,500
Should be a lot more
interesting.
60
00:04:13,900 --> 00:04:17,500
And and let's let's talk about
this, let's talk about the
61
00:04:17,507 --> 00:04:21,000
defense because I want to give
the defense I want to give them
62
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:28,200
their Kudos first Oh, coach
Compton, coach Compton.
63
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:29,700
All right.
Robbie.
64
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,200
So let's talk about the defense.
So for the better part of three
65
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,600
quarters, they absolutely got
the job done.
66
00:04:35,700 --> 00:04:39,500
They held in Sea, State, 23,
points aggressive, play called
67
00:04:39,500 --> 00:04:41,200
and against NC State, they were
attacking.
68
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,800
It seemed like all night.
We didn't fewer missed tackles
69
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,900
in the first three quarters than
we've seen.
70
00:04:49,100 --> 00:04:50,600
Probably the last few weeks, at
least.
71
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:51,200
Yeah.
Yeah.
72
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,500
For the last few weeks
definitely.
73
00:04:52,500 --> 00:04:54,300
And it seems like they were It's
loose.
74
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,600
Yeah, right playing lose.
They weren't looking at the
75
00:04:58,608 --> 00:05:00,500
scoreboard.
They were just kind of attacking
76
00:05:00,500 --> 00:05:05,300
and following the game plan and
playing playing like they
77
00:05:05,300 --> 00:05:10,200
belonged.
Yeah I like it along and and we
78
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:14,500
know Devin O'Leary wasn't there,
we know we know it was Chambers
79
00:05:14,500 --> 00:05:18,400
in the first and then the Rook
or Morris The Freshman who you
80
00:05:18,407 --> 00:05:22,600
know, who was a four-star.
It's not like he was the, you
81
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:27,000
know, the A two-star.
He was a forced out of Georgia.
82
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,600
He wasn't just holding down that
third spotty.
83
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,000
Yeah.
Solid player that probably just
84
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,700
maybe wasn't ready for prime
time yet but you know and they
85
00:05:35,700 --> 00:05:40,300
pushed him showed up anyway, he
did show up anyway in but again
86
00:05:40,300 --> 00:05:43,500
the defense those first three
quarters even with Mason in
87
00:05:43,500 --> 00:05:47,700
their it they couldn't get
anything established and it felt
88
00:05:47,700 --> 00:05:50,000
good.
But Brian you made that point as
89
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,200
it got to the end of the third
and then the and then the Fourth
90
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,100
of July Fell off my teen
roughly.
91
00:05:55,100 --> 00:05:58,800
They had 19 points in eight
minutes. 19 points in eight
92
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,000
minutes and I know you got to
see some of the tape.
93
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,700
What do you felt like was the
swing?
94
00:06:03,700 --> 00:06:08,300
Why do we quit attacking?
I feel like it's a combination
95
00:06:08,300 --> 00:06:11,100
of things.
You got to lead, you end up
96
00:06:11,300 --> 00:06:14,600
being a little more conservative
trying to conserve you know the
97
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,900
depth that we have because we
have we still have debt problems
98
00:06:16,900 --> 00:06:19,700
on defense and in this game we
especially Adept problems at
99
00:06:19,700 --> 00:06:23,900
corner.
You know we only had really for
100
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,000
cornerbacks available that are
on scholarship so that kind of
101
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,300
put us behind the eight ball.
With how we were deploying our
102
00:06:32,300 --> 00:06:37,700
cornerbacks and, as they started
taking some more shots, you
103
00:06:37,700 --> 00:06:40,800
know, that became problematic,
it was like kind of your damned
104
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,400
if you do.
Damned if you don't, if you if
105
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,100
you Blitz and you don't get
there, you got tired,
106
00:06:45,100 --> 00:06:48,100
cornerbacks on Islands.
If you play more conservative
107
00:06:48,100 --> 00:06:50,500
you, let them kind of take
chunks down the field, a little
108
00:06:50,500 --> 00:06:57,000
bit at a time and we kind of got
in a situation where we the
109
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,100
snowball started and we couldn't
stop it.
110
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,700
Yeah.
And and It sort of stinks
111
00:07:04,700 --> 00:07:07,300
because I think the reason
probably went to Zone you
112
00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:09,300
mentioned it.
We heard coach promising.
113
00:07:09,300 --> 00:07:11,000
And today in the pressure was
the depth.
114
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,900
Imani Chapman and Masson,
Delaney plate.
115
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,100
Every snap and we were over 76.
Brian me.
116
00:07:18,300 --> 00:07:20,600
Brian.
Made the point Friday when we
117
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,000
were Chad and he's like, do you
see the difference in the place?
118
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,000
I'm like, and I looked at the
wrong stats.
119
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,000
I'm like, they're pretty close
friend.
120
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,300
He's like look.
Again look again.
121
00:07:29,700 --> 00:07:32,900
They ran 76, we're in 54 and
man.
122
00:07:33,100 --> 00:07:35,900
In Maine, sort of Lane and
Armani were out there every
123
00:07:35,900 --> 00:07:38,400
snap.
Which when you're, when you're
124
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,300
down to four, we saw DJ Harvey
play.
125
00:07:40,300 --> 00:07:42,900
A lot of nickel, we did not see
much pre on Marie.
126
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,500
So really it was only three
guys.
127
00:07:44,500 --> 00:07:48,900
Getting the majority of those
snaps you and him and cams out
128
00:07:48,900 --> 00:07:52,700
cam cam Johnson of us, both of
them were late scraps.
129
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,900
Also down strong was obviously
already outfit.
130
00:07:56,900 --> 00:08:00,300
So you had three three guys,
that could have helped you a
131
00:08:00,308 --> 00:08:02,600
little bit depth wise that
weren't a bongo.
132
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,800
Going into that game, it was
absolutely gone.
133
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,100
And then it was coach said it
today.
134
00:08:09,100 --> 00:08:12,000
In the pressure on anybody,
listen about learning how to win
135
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,800
games and he says, it's
something we have to do as a
136
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,800
team and you know what?
Before this season started we
137
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,500
were roughly, I think it was one
game under 500 with the class of
138
00:08:22,500 --> 00:08:26,400
18.
That's that's basically a coin.
139
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,700
Flip, whether you win or not and
Brian.
140
00:08:29,700 --> 00:08:33,299
How did you say it on Friday
about that?
141
00:08:33,299 --> 00:08:37,500
Big play down the field.
I basically say this, like once
142
00:08:37,500 --> 00:08:40,799
they got that one big play down
the field and then they got In
143
00:08:40,799 --> 00:08:43,799
The End Zone.
It was like we remembered that
144
00:08:43,799 --> 00:08:46,600
we weren't as good as we had
been playing for three quarters
145
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:52,500
and that's that mentality that
we keep hearing about learning
146
00:08:52,500 --> 00:08:55,400
how to win, learning how to To
finish.
147
00:08:55,700 --> 00:09:00,200
Did you play collegiate ball?
You play collegiate ball and
148
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,800
your teams were good.
Your own teams that competed in
149
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,400
the O dat.
You know trying to win that
150
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,400
conference.
It is something.
151
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,800
Some people say it's fictitious.
I don't believe that I believe
152
00:09:12,500 --> 00:09:14,400
every single sport you ever
play.
153
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,300
You have to learn how to win and
we just that is something we
154
00:09:18,300 --> 00:09:23,100
don't have right now and it
showed, maybe maybe that maybe
155
00:09:23,100 --> 00:09:24,700
the silver.
In is.
156
00:09:25,900 --> 00:09:29,700
The last three weeks, it showed
a little bit more, and a little
157
00:09:29,700 --> 00:09:31,300
bit more, that they were getting
closer.
158
00:09:31,900 --> 00:09:34,500
It went from losing them, by two
scores at Pitt.
159
00:09:34,500 --> 00:09:37,300
The one sport Miami to
one-pointed NC State.
160
00:09:37,700 --> 00:09:41,600
Yeah, and it's when you talk
about winning, it's, it's the
161
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:48,900
little things. when you look at
the plays that kind of build
162
00:09:48,900 --> 00:09:55,000
towards your win their points in
the game, Where you going to
163
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,200
point to and say?
Okay, well you make you make a
164
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,100
little play here.
You make a little play there.
165
00:09:59,100 --> 00:10:02,500
It's a different outcome, but
you see winning teams that they
166
00:10:02,500 --> 00:10:05,200
play with the different type of
confidence in a different type
167
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:10,400
of swagger than teams.
Like the Hokies right now where
168
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,600
when one bad thing happens, you
start to see that Snowball
169
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,300
Effect.
You start to see doubt creeping
170
00:10:15,300 --> 00:10:20,600
in, you start to press a little
bit and make mistakes that you
171
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,600
wouldn't normally make and
that's what we're seeing.
172
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,600
A lot from this.
Team is that they kind of get a
173
00:10:26,608 --> 00:10:31,000
little bit over their skis and
all of a sudden snowball comes
174
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,700
another, yeah, it's a snowball
of thing.
175
00:10:33,100 --> 00:10:34,700
That's a thing.
You talk about getting over
176
00:10:34,700 --> 00:10:38,300
their skis, they lose the
technique.
177
00:10:38,300 --> 00:10:41,200
They start playing outside
themselves not within
178
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:45,500
themselves, not within the
scheme and that's learned and,
179
00:10:45,500 --> 00:10:48,500
you know, we see mistakes and
stuff this year, and I'm not
180
00:10:48,500 --> 00:10:51,600
calling for anybody's job this
year because I've seen enough
181
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,000
from each member of the coaching
staff that And when they get the
182
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,700
right players, when that
mentality, where we talked about
183
00:10:57,700 --> 00:11:01,400
it last week, I talked about it
with the more brothers who had
184
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,600
the least amount of time under
the old coaching staff, and they
185
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,100
have looked like two of the best
offensive linemen we have and
186
00:11:08,100 --> 00:11:11,800
that takes time.
And obviously probably, What
187
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,000
Hurts the Most is?
We pumped with six minutes left
188
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,200
and we never get the ball back.
Yeah.
189
00:11:17,500 --> 00:11:19,500
Once I was that was the big
thing with the defense.
190
00:11:19,500 --> 00:11:22,600
We just need a one stop.
We got him to third down twice,
191
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,500
couldn't get off the field.
Couldn't finish couldn't finish
192
00:11:26,500 --> 00:11:29,200
it.
Now, let's talk about the
193
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,100
offense because Jesus Christ,
let's talk jekyll-hyde with this
194
00:11:32,100 --> 00:11:34,600
offense.
That first half.
195
00:11:35,100 --> 00:11:37,800
They knew everything we were
doing, they took away the Run
196
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,500
game, they took away the short
passes.
197
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,100
Yep.
They dared us to beat them down
198
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,600
field and from what I can
remember in what you think, we
199
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,300
really didn't try that in the
first half.
200
00:11:50,700 --> 00:11:53,700
We didn't we didn't try it
enough or with with enough.
201
00:11:54,700 --> 00:11:57,800
Variation.
When we took the shots, it was
202
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,000
kind of a little bit more
calculated.
203
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:05,300
We weren't doing it off of off
of first down where maybe the
204
00:12:05,300 --> 00:12:08,400
defense wasn't expecting and as
much we were doing in very
205
00:12:09,100 --> 00:12:11,900
telegraphed ways, you know,
definitely third down.
206
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,800
You know, we were trying to take
some shots here and there when
207
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,800
we had third down and long
situations, but we weren't
208
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:22,300
trying to catch them off guard
or get that first first down big
209
00:12:22,300 --> 00:12:24,100
play that can kind of set your
offense in.
210
00:12:24,300 --> 00:12:28,700
Ocean drum.
We were very predictable and it
211
00:12:28,700 --> 00:12:30,800
showed the way they reacted.
I mean, I know that's a good
212
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,000
defense but we should have the
first half should not have been
213
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,400
as bad as it was if we could
have done some things
214
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:41,100
differently that took them off
edge a little bit.
215
00:12:42,100 --> 00:12:46,900
Absolutely, it's the truth.
And but but then Brian, you
216
00:12:46,900 --> 00:12:51,000
know, we talked about that.
And then we see in this is the
217
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,100
see, these little things.
We see, we see an absolute
218
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:58,800
Salute 180 in the adjustment and
when we come out in that third
219
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:05,000
quarter, we get the ball six
plays 78 yards under two minutes
220
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:10,100
and scored touchdown.
I mean it was like that's that
221
00:13:10,100 --> 00:13:14,400
opening, third quarter Drive.
I said it was the best opening
222
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:15,800
drive.
We've had to the season.
223
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,100
It's probably the best offensive
Drive.
224
00:13:18,100 --> 00:13:23,100
We've had all year very terms of
execution in terms of keeping
225
00:13:23,100 --> 00:13:24,800
the defense off.
Silence.
226
00:13:25,500 --> 00:13:27,300
It was the best drive on
offense.
227
00:13:27,300 --> 00:13:29,700
We've had all year.
Yeah and if you take a look at
228
00:13:29,700 --> 00:13:32,400
it, it was Wells running the
ball and then he hits Daquan and
229
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,200
then they Quan again, then
Malachi with a good six yard
230
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,400
run.
And then the next thing, you
231
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:43,200
know, it is, it's a penalty.
We get down field and then we're
232
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,600
inside the goal line, Grant runs
it in.
233
00:13:46,900 --> 00:13:51,400
And it was like, it was nothing
was huge.
234
00:13:52,100 --> 00:13:57,100
It was what?
15, 15 78 penalty.
235
00:13:57,100 --> 00:14:01,000
Get you 15 more and then you're
in the it wasn't.
236
00:14:01,100 --> 00:14:08,300
You know it wasn't like the next
drive that we got I mean it's if
237
00:14:08,300 --> 00:14:12,300
we got those, like intermediate
chunk plays that we haven't been
238
00:14:12,500 --> 00:14:18,500
consistent enough in this
offense, we need a lot more of
239
00:14:18,500 --> 00:14:23,100
those type of routes.
Those type of schemes to in the
240
00:14:23,100 --> 00:14:25,600
passing game.
And we need that more
241
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,700
consistently because that seems
to be our bread and butter.
242
00:14:28,700 --> 00:14:33,000
Whether it's Daquan whether it's
working, Caleb Smith in there as
243
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:37,200
well.
We need more of that.
244
00:14:37,500 --> 00:14:42,200
We've been relying too much on
kind of the short game and
245
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,800
hoping that we can, you know,
break a tackle or matriculate
246
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,900
the ball down the field, 68
yards at a time.
247
00:14:49,500 --> 00:14:51,700
I mean, eventually we need to
start getting those 15 to 20
248
00:14:51,700 --> 00:14:54,400
yard chunk plays consistently.
I'm not saying we got to do what
249
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:59,300
we did on the next drive, all
the time, but let's start moving
250
00:14:59,300 --> 00:15:01,400
the ball down.
Feel a little bit with a little
251
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,200
bit more confidence in that
intermediate game.
252
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,700
And then the next Drive, I mean,
home run.
253
00:15:09,900 --> 00:15:13,800
The those intermediate routes
opened up, that safety didn't
254
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,300
Shada Caleb side, and it was a
perfect.
255
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,400
I mean, that was a beautiful,
beautiful deep pass because
256
00:15:20,700 --> 00:15:23,800
brand dropped it in the bucket.
Caleb didn't break stride.
257
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:30,200
80-yard touchdown.
One play, One play, One, play 11
258
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,300
seconds.
Yeah.
259
00:15:33,900 --> 00:15:37,100
That's what he.
And that's how you you take the
260
00:15:37,100 --> 00:15:38,800
momentum from the other team
right there.
261
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,900
I mean absolute, the one score,
obviously, that changes the
262
00:15:41,900 --> 00:15:44,000
game.
You get that second one.
263
00:15:44,500 --> 00:15:47,600
Now, you got to tell you on the,
on their back of their heels, a
264
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:52,400
little bit and you get it in one
play there.
265
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:59,500
So that really kind of was the
first huge play that we've had
266
00:15:59,500 --> 00:16:02,100
since really Boston College in
terms.
267
00:16:02,300 --> 00:16:07,600
Like really big chunk play going
for a touchdown?
268
00:16:08,300 --> 00:16:09,500
Yep.
Absolutely.
269
00:16:09,900 --> 00:16:12,200
And then now, the next travel is
a punt by me.
270
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:16,600
And you talked about today, how
it's okay to punch sometimes,
271
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,100
but how much positive yardage
did you get what?
272
00:16:19,100 --> 00:16:23,600
We got 23 positive yards.
So you know, they had a punt to
273
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,800
us.
We got the ball roughly at, let
274
00:16:27,808 --> 00:16:30,800
me do the math here, roughly it
like the 25-yard line.
275
00:16:30,900 --> 00:16:32,400
We went 23.
Words?
276
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:33,100
Right?
At Midfield.
277
00:16:33,100 --> 00:16:35,000
We punted they got the ball at
their 20.
278
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,000
Did they had a punt back?
And then it was that laughs
279
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,000
really.
Again it was another solid
280
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:44,600
drive, five plays 65 yards
again, Grant running.
281
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,100
Don't worry, we're going to talk
about some of the bad stuff,
282
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,600
folks.
It's we've got, we're gonna lay
283
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,300
into a stew, but it was like
three minutes, Bam, Bam, Bam.
284
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,600
Grant Wells 20 yard.
Run touchdown.
285
00:16:59,500 --> 00:17:02,700
And it's and that's where you're
pulling your hair out because in
286
00:17:02,700 --> 00:17:05,000
less than eight minutes we score
21 points.
287
00:17:05,900 --> 00:17:08,400
Yeah in eight minutes we scored
21 points.
288
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,000
That's of the game clock.
Actual clock.
289
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:17,300
Like six minutes if Brian if we
can score 6 21 points in six
290
00:17:17,300 --> 00:17:20,300
minutes every game at least
once.
291
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:21,900
Yep.
What can I tell you?
292
00:17:21,900 --> 00:17:24,700
One thing here though is, yeah
that this this tells you the
293
00:17:24,700 --> 00:17:32,800
importance of getting First, a
first, down on your to start a
294
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:38,000
drive because we went Tempo on
most of these drives in the
295
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,400
third quarter.
And we really go Tempo because
296
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:45,000
we're able to get a first down
pretty quickly in the drive-by
297
00:17:45,700 --> 00:17:48,400
the second plate.
Yeah the second plane those two
298
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,900
drives and get up on the ball
and keep them on their heels.
299
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,000
It was less less.
Check with me as we were.
300
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,600
Going through there.
So they were running quickly.
301
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:04,200
They were sticking with the,
with the original call and they
302
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:09,100
played with as much confidence.
As I've seen them play all year
303
00:18:09,100 --> 00:18:13,200
on offense.
Yeah, and we saw some more
304
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,300
different things on, you know,
Thursday night.
305
00:18:16,300 --> 00:18:20,100
I mean I think one of the big
one was just seeing Grant uses
306
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,000
athleticism.
You know, he has some, he can
307
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,700
run the ball a little bit and
there were a couple times where
308
00:18:26,700 --> 00:18:30,100
he Handed off, if he had pulled,
he would have had a lot of
309
00:18:30,100 --> 00:18:33,600
daylight a lot of daylight
because a couple times those
310
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,200
ends and those outside backers
just crashed.
311
00:18:36,300 --> 00:18:40,300
If he pulls it's a lane and
there's no one on that side of
312
00:18:40,300 --> 00:18:42,300
the field.
So I think that's got to be
313
00:18:42,300 --> 00:18:45,300
continued to put in.
What else did you see?
314
00:18:46,700 --> 00:18:49,700
For a little new wrinkles.
Yeah.
315
00:18:49,700 --> 00:18:51,900
I mean that more unbalanced
lines.
316
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,700
We saw that that might be
something that we could catch
317
00:18:54,700 --> 00:18:59,200
them in when we were talking in
the preview episode there, and
318
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,600
they went that way.
So it's good to see that they,
319
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:03,600
you know, watch the Syracuse
tape.
320
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:09,200
Like I did Grant was more
involved in the running game.
321
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:10,800
So that was, that was good as
well.
322
00:19:11,300 --> 00:19:16,100
He's been more involved.
Week-to-week lately, various
323
00:19:16,100 --> 00:19:18,500
degrees of Effectiveness,
obviously, when they've got the
324
00:19:18,500 --> 00:19:22,800
loaded, Ox lot less room for him
to operate.
325
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,500
We saw that kind in the first
half but as we were more
326
00:19:25,500 --> 00:19:28,600
effective with other aspects of
the offense, some of those
327
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:32,800
rushing Lanes, opened up for him
in the second half there and
328
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,000
obviously, we've already talked
about it the second half shots,
329
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,200
downfield, we need more of that
more consistently, you know,
330
00:19:39,500 --> 00:19:42,300
Grant throws a good deep ball
especially when he's got time.
331
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,400
He's connected on it on quite a
few here.
332
00:19:46,300 --> 00:19:48,800
He's, he sells a couple here
there.
333
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,900
But when he's got time, when
he's able to throw one on one,
334
00:19:52,700 --> 00:19:54,400
it's easy throws a pretty good
one.
335
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:59,800
So we need more of that.
I mean, do you is that something
336
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,700
you want to see early though is
that something that you feel if
337
00:20:02,700 --> 00:20:04,600
we take a shot early and hit
one?
338
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,200
The safeties won't creep up.
Linebackers won't be sticking
339
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,400
their nose in the gaps.
It's like we get burned deep a
340
00:20:11,408 --> 00:20:15,200
couple times.
You know, you've got to change
341
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,900
your philosophy up and it did
kind of change their philosophy
342
00:20:17,900 --> 00:20:20,700
up.
But we couldn't get anything
343
00:20:20,700 --> 00:20:22,300
done.
The rest of the game we were we
344
00:20:22,300 --> 00:20:25,800
were struggling because
essentially we played our, we
345
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:30,000
played our hand, we played our
trunk cards and they knew what
346
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,300
we were going to do so they were
able to adjust.
347
00:20:32,300 --> 00:20:34,300
So somebody could say, did you
do it on?
348
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,700
Could you did you what did we do
it too early?
349
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,000
I don't think that's, I don't
think we did it too early.
350
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:45,200
I would say, we need to be able
to be good on first and second
351
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:51,200
down, Even when we're not
calling shots downfield.
352
00:20:51,700 --> 00:20:56,300
Because our problem right now is
been we're very ineffective
353
00:20:56,300 --> 00:21:00,900
rushing on first down.
So that puts us in a bad second
354
00:21:00,900 --> 00:21:02,800
down call that doesn't always
work.
355
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,300
And now we're in third and
medium third and long situations
356
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,900
where you know we've struggled
off and on and we struggled on
357
00:21:10,900 --> 00:21:13,000
third down mightily in this
game.
358
00:21:13,100 --> 00:21:16,200
Oh my god.
Did we not even joke?
359
00:21:16,300 --> 00:21:22,700
How how bad 9% Yeah, we
converted 9%.
360
00:21:22,700 --> 00:21:29,700
We converted 1/3 down compared
to them almost converting. 45%
361
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,900
that magic 40 number.
Brian, like continues to float
362
00:21:33,900 --> 00:21:36,200
it out there.
If we keep them 40 or under,
363
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,100
we're going to win games, we're
going to win games.
364
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,200
And if that's and that's a
simple as getting off the field
365
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:46,400
one or two more times on third
down, and we came close to or
366
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,900
three times in that game to get
off the field but in and it
367
00:21:49,908 --> 00:21:51,900
closed.
Better clothes doesn't matter.
368
00:21:51,900 --> 00:21:55,500
You got it, done.
Close doesn't matter at all and,
369
00:21:56,300 --> 00:22:01,000
you know, didn't rush the ball.
Good again, you know, just one
370
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,200
point nine per carry, you know,
after adjustments off, 26 rushes
371
00:22:06,100 --> 00:22:13,000
and what a lot of blew up in the
subsequent evening, we should
372
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,500
just say, late-night hours.
And the next day was what's on
373
00:22:17,500 --> 00:22:19,200
the coaches, what's on the
players?
374
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,000
And, you know, Let's talk about
some of that, we're going to
375
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,800
talk about first, the game
Management on the coaches and
376
00:22:25,900 --> 00:22:27,800
the first big one.
And again, I'm going to shout
377
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,600
them out Mason, he sits over
there on the two-point
378
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,700
conversion says, why the heck
are we calling a timeout?
379
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,700
They're going to go for two
here, to get it down to three
380
00:22:37,700 --> 00:22:39,800
points.
Why do we have a called a
381
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,700
timeout that?
Obviously using that heard in
382
00:22:43,700 --> 00:22:46,500
the six minute drill we had one
time out to burn at that point
383
00:22:46,500 --> 00:22:49,700
time if you have to maybe you do
get stopped or maybe they didn't
384
00:22:49,700 --> 00:22:52,100
feel the Rings and they Kick a
field goal with a minute left,
385
00:22:52,100 --> 00:22:54,800
and you still have time to
operate now.
386
00:22:55,300 --> 00:22:59,400
Pride did mention today that the
had the wrong Personnel on the
387
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,000
field.
And at that point in time, those
388
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,600
two points were two important at
that point.
389
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,400
And I like he said, at that
point in time because at that
390
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:12,200
point in time, it was, if they
don't get the two points like
391
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:16,100
they didn't, it was still a two
possession game or essentially
392
00:23:16,100 --> 00:23:19,100
it was they could not tell the
vehicle, they had to score a
393
00:23:19,108 --> 00:23:22,000
touchdown.
But on the other hand, this is
394
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,100
something where it's like, that
learning experience for the
395
00:23:24,108 --> 00:23:27,400
first time, head coach.
Did you got your players out
396
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,700
there?
This is becoming a tight game.
397
00:23:29,700 --> 00:23:32,900
Timeouts are important, right?
Yeah, yeah.
398
00:23:32,900 --> 00:23:36,000
And and that's after you
probably you burned one that you
399
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,100
needed to earlier.
But then that meant that you
400
00:23:39,100 --> 00:23:43,600
couldn't afford to burn, another
one ahead of the final drive is
401
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:47,200
things.
Got tighter timeouts, are at a
402
00:23:47,208 --> 00:23:50,300
premium, it's one of those
things I know.
403
00:23:50,500 --> 00:23:54,400
Like, you know, hindsight's
20/20 is like, oh yeah, we
404
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,800
should have conserved that one.
Yeah and I think I think we
405
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:05,500
should have Sometimes you I
think that's where being a
406
00:24:05,500 --> 00:24:08,000
coordinator versus being a head
coach.
407
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,900
Kind of comes into play.
I think that that's a timeout
408
00:24:10,900 --> 00:24:14,100
that a coordinator wanted to
take that a head coach might
409
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,200
kind of say now we're just going
to let this one roll.
410
00:24:17,300 --> 00:24:22,000
We're going to we're still going
to have the lead regardless what
411
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,600
they do?
Yeah we're going to have the
412
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,700
lead if I have this in my back
pocket.
413
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,400
If we're driving the field and
it is a one-point game and we
414
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,100
need a field goal.
We have two times or we can
415
00:24:35,100 --> 00:24:39,800
really attack the middle of the
field and just burn the time out
416
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:41,500
and get set up for the next
play.
417
00:24:42,100 --> 00:24:44,100
And then I'll give you a chance
to potentially get off the
418
00:24:44,100 --> 00:24:46,900
field, late in the game and have
a chance to work in the field
419
00:24:46,900 --> 00:24:49,900
goal range.
You know, whether the, you know,
420
00:24:49,900 --> 00:24:53,500
it's a You know one or two point
game at that point, it doesn't
421
00:24:53,500 --> 00:24:57,400
really matter.
Exactly now let me ask this and
422
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:01,800
you said this was big on your
game management pieces you said
423
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,200
Brent Pride trusted his defense
to win the battles when we had
424
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:09,000
the lead instead of staying
aggressive, is that going back
425
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:13,400
to him being a coordinator again
versus being a head coach?
426
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,000
Where if he's the head coach and
Chris Mars, the DC and Chris
427
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,700
lays back that one play.
He's taking his hat off and
428
00:25:19,700 --> 00:25:21,900
saying Jack.
Attack.
429
00:25:21,900 --> 00:25:23,700
I don't care about this sitting
attack.
430
00:25:23,700 --> 00:25:25,800
I don't care if you have to put
gas who are in experiencing
431
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:31,400
attack and we know at the end of
the season, he will no longer be
432
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,300
the defensive coordinator and
calling the plays.
433
00:25:33,300 --> 00:25:36,400
But again, is that the
coordinator hat finding its way.
434
00:25:36,900 --> 00:25:39,100
I think it's some of that I
think it's you know we talked
435
00:25:39,100 --> 00:25:40,900
about it earlier with wanting to
keep guys.
436
00:25:40,900 --> 00:25:43,200
Fresh.
I think they he was attempting
437
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:49,400
to kind of stem the the tide as
it were with.
438
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:55,500
We're probably are thinnest at
the defensive wine and in the in
439
00:25:55,500 --> 00:25:59,000
the secondary especially at
corner in this game and you know
440
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,300
you take your foot off the gas a
little bit.
441
00:26:01,300 --> 00:26:04,100
They're trying to kind of keep
your guys fresh but now you've
442
00:26:04,100 --> 00:26:06,900
given them confidence and I
think all they need it was like
443
00:26:06,900 --> 00:26:10,300
a little spark of confidence and
and that kind of woke them up a
444
00:26:10,308 --> 00:26:13,400
little bit and it also reminded
our guys.
445
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:18,000
Hey you're the team rolling in
here with losing record while we
446
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:22,900
were still ranked in the top 25.
And it kind of showed from there
447
00:26:22,900 --> 00:26:26,400
on out, even when Pride got more
aggressive, as we kind of, went
448
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:31,500
down the stretch there, I just
think, you know, that little
449
00:26:31,500 --> 00:26:35,900
moment almost was like a switch
for both teams anybody that says
450
00:26:35,900 --> 00:26:39,500
momentum is in the thing,
doesn't watch college football,
451
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,400
don't watch sports and watch
what, what?
452
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:47,200
Well, I don't have it on back
here, but I just look, Houston
453
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,900
had all the momentum after the
weekend, right?
454
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,800
That game got canceled.
I sold last night because it
455
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:56,100
rained in Philly, all night,
Lily came out today and they're
456
00:26:56,100 --> 00:26:59,400
blowing the doors off of a 7,
nothing so far, I wish I had it
457
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,800
on back here so I could halfway
watch the game in Philly.
458
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,300
Lot was able to line up there.
They're pitching, they got
459
00:27:04,300 --> 00:27:08,300
better long-term for the rest of
the the series to momentum.
460
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,500
All right, let's talk about
quickly the offensive side of
461
00:27:11,500 --> 00:27:15,500
the ball.
All right, how tough is it?
462
00:27:15,500 --> 00:27:17,500
You mentioned to me.
It's like he was too late
463
00:27:17,500 --> 00:27:19,500
adjusting to the Box.
How tough is it for?
464
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,100
Obviously, this is the first
time.
465
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,200
Ordinator to make that
adjustment in the Box down to
466
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:26,300
the field.
Is it too?
467
00:27:26,300 --> 00:27:29,000
Big of an adjustment?
Or is it something where a more
468
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,600
seasoned guy would just say,
we've got to change it, I don't
469
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,000
care.
I would rather die by taking the
470
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,600
risk.
That I know if we make this
471
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,800
change, we maybe can make a
touchdown or we can move the
472
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:44,500
ball.
I still feel like we're not
473
00:27:46,100 --> 00:27:50,300
because we're not doing some of
the the things that he wants us
474
00:27:50,300 --> 00:27:52,600
to do.
Well we're not opening up the
475
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:58,900
Playbook and for throwing in
enough new elements to the
476
00:27:58,900 --> 00:28:05,700
offense week to week.
And when you have a loaded box
477
00:28:05,700 --> 00:28:08,000
like that, and you're trying to
your bread butter, trying to be
478
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,100
all right, we're going to run
it.
479
00:28:09,100 --> 00:28:12,300
We're going to have play action,
and I know if you want to have
480
00:28:12,300 --> 00:28:14,800
play action, that, that you want
that to be your bread and butter
481
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:18,000
in the passing game.
It's hard for that to actually
482
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,900
have as much juice if you don't
have some sort of semblance of a
483
00:28:21,908 --> 00:28:24,300
running game.
But at some point you got to
484
00:28:24,300 --> 00:28:27,200
recognize what the strengths and
weaknesses of the offense are
485
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,800
and start playing towards those.
And I think we're too late
486
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,600
doing.
At, in a lot of games.
487
00:28:35,100 --> 00:28:39,100
And that that's what we saw at
this game and by the time, you
488
00:28:39,100 --> 00:28:44,600
know, we played our pivot card.
They adjusted, they were able to
489
00:28:44,608 --> 00:28:47,000
fight their way back.
Our defense of got gassed and
490
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:52,200
they scraped one out there.
And he never, he's never really
491
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:57,100
gotten the offense settled after
the Thomas injury in this game.
492
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,400
Because if that felt like
another switch the offense, we
493
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,100
were kind of cooking a little
bit.
494
00:29:04,300 --> 00:29:09,500
And then when Thomas went down
and weekend, whatever we did,
495
00:29:09,500 --> 00:29:10,700
look like a different team out
there.
496
00:29:10,700 --> 00:29:14,100
I know Thomas wasn't exactly
tearing it up running the ball,
497
00:29:14,500 --> 00:29:17,000
but he had a, get a couple good
grabs of the running game,
498
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,200
especially that one down.
The sideline were amazing.
499
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,000
Grab them aside, Allison.
Amazing catch.
500
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:26,600
So he's, he gives the offense a
little bit of a spark that,
501
00:29:27,100 --> 00:29:30,000
especially in this game.
Didn't have Keshawn King and
502
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,700
yeah, Holston coming on in the
game after that, you could
503
00:29:33,700 --> 00:29:36,900
really see how that impact of
the offense.
504
00:29:36,900 --> 00:29:40,200
It just looked like they kind of
became a shell of what they
505
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,400
showed in the third quarter.
Well, it's that whole piece of
506
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,000
We aren't as good as what we
are.
507
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,700
What we've been playing, we that
that eight minutes and then
508
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,000
Malachi gets hurt and it's the
snap back to reality moment of
509
00:29:53,100 --> 00:29:54,900
we're not as good as what we
just did.
510
00:29:54,900 --> 00:29:58,800
Those big plays those solid runs
those try, Drives.
511
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,100
We're not that into me.
That to me that is somewhat on
512
00:30:02,100 --> 00:30:03,300
coaching.
I know, it's some player
513
00:30:03,300 --> 00:30:05,200
mentality, but it's also
coaches.
514
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,000
Continue to chirp in your ear
now.
515
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,300
What's, but, it's Bowens
responsibility to get some plays
516
00:30:12,300 --> 00:30:14,200
in there that.
Keep your guys confident.
517
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,400
That's true.
That's on him now.
518
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,300
Brian you got into a pretty
much.
519
00:30:19,300 --> 00:30:23,500
Well, no Prime just made a
defiant statement that now,
520
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,400
false starts because there are
some things that were on the
521
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,700
players.
Saturday or excuse me, Thursday
522
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:37,300
twelve nine of ten false start
penalties, 6 on the line to on
523
00:30:37,300 --> 00:30:41,400
skill positions, to on special
teams Brian.
524
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,800
Someone came out and said this
is all bad coaching.
525
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,200
And Brian, Sigler went, you went
Lee Corso.
526
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:56,500
Not so fast.
So I'll preface about this.
527
00:30:56,500 --> 00:30:58,500
There are things that can be
done.
528
00:30:59,700 --> 00:31:03,700
That will encourage an offensive
line to try to be more cognizant
529
00:31:03,700 --> 00:31:08,600
about false starts.
But a offensive lineman is not
530
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,600
jumping off sides because of
something.
531
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:17,800
A coach does or does not do
Point Blank, I played the
532
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:23,300
position, I know this and the
reason is and so the things that
533
00:31:23,300 --> 00:31:25,600
the things that thing that you
can do as a coach is that
534
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:29,700
obviously one of the things they
are doing which is extra
535
00:31:30,500 --> 00:31:35,700
conditioning punishment.
Things like that as a response
536
00:31:35,700 --> 00:31:39,000
to the offsides that occur in a
game.
537
00:31:39,100 --> 00:31:40,600
Wait a second, another
offensive.
538
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:46,600
Lineman speaks up.
So, so the thing, the things you
539
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,800
can do is, you know, obviously
what one of the things they are
540
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,200
doing which is extra
conditioning for 4 yards that
541
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:54,800
you commit in penalties in a
game.
542
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,200
The other thing that you can do
is you can lose your spot.
543
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:02,200
The problem with losing your
spot is that we don't have the
544
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,700
depth to loot to have someone
lose their spot.
545
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,100
Right.
Now, now, we're not when you
546
00:32:08,100 --> 00:32:11,800
when someone loses their spot on
this offensive line and even in
547
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,200
other positions in this offense,
Talking about replacing them
548
00:32:15,300 --> 00:32:19,900
with a true freshman which could
result in a burnt red shirt or a
549
00:32:19,900 --> 00:32:23,100
walk-on.
I mean, you can now, you can all
550
00:32:23,100 --> 00:32:25,400
sorts of good stuff.
We had T right here, one from
551
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:30,000
Robbie one from the white again,
Robbie, basically, priest not
552
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,700
penalties.
Oh probably every third Alan up
553
00:32:32,700 --> 00:32:34,500
there.
Every hokey fans knows that
554
00:32:34,500 --> 00:32:36,600
tissue and it's not all coaching
Robbie.
555
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,000
Obviously, as a coach, there are
other one about a white up.
556
00:32:43,500 --> 00:32:46,100
And we've heard this since day,
one about the depth.
557
00:32:46,100 --> 00:32:49,200
We've heard it since day one and
I guess I get what they're
558
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:53,800
saying, if we had a team like
you would want to have and a guy
559
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:59,300
jumps off sides, twice in a game
yank him at least for into the
560
00:32:59,300 --> 00:33:02,500
quarter and put in the other guy
and see what you got.
561
00:33:02,500 --> 00:33:05,100
And if that guy's rolling, you
keep him in maybe for the rest
562
00:33:05,100 --> 00:33:09,000
of the game and that and that
shows that you're serious.
563
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,400
But we don't have the luxury of
that type of response from a
564
00:33:12,408 --> 00:33:17,200
coaching staff, Right now.
So these Lyman need to take
565
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,500
accountability for jumping off
sides and I'll say this it
566
00:33:20,500 --> 00:33:23,200
wasn't just the Lyman Daquan
jumped off.
567
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:24,900
We had a wide receiver jump all
of y'all.
568
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,100
Yeah Caleb jumped off.
We had three three or four that
569
00:33:29,100 --> 00:33:31,800
weren't on the offensive line so
this is not just an offensive
570
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,100
line problem.
This, this is a concentration
571
00:33:34,100 --> 00:33:36,000
problem.
This is thinking too much
572
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,900
problem, this is worrying about
beating your guy, instead of
573
00:33:39,900 --> 00:33:42,100
focusing on what's Happening the
game problem.
574
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,700
Very, very true.
It's also funny put Robbie's
575
00:33:45,700 --> 00:33:49,700
quote up here again because you
you said this and it's really
576
00:33:49,700 --> 00:33:53,700
funny because proc continue to
say, all sides with false start
577
00:33:53,700 --> 00:33:55,100
sounds like is he talking that
backwards?
578
00:33:55,100 --> 00:33:58,000
But I think that's just
something common, but you
579
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:01,000
mentioned doing when we were
talking Friday.
580
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:03,300
I put it in the I put it in the
Tweet to.
581
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,000
Yes you did.
A lot of times, why would I get
582
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,800
false starts?
Because the freaking dtac on the
583
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:12,199
front of me was feed, my ads,
had my ass kicked and I'm trying
584
00:34:12,199 --> 00:34:17,199
to get a Bone, his ass display.
Whether it's I'm trying to kick
585
00:34:17,199 --> 00:34:22,199
back early or whether I'm trying
to get a Zone step or reach step
586
00:34:22,199 --> 00:34:24,199
or I'm trying to down block him
at the right.
587
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,900
I'm trying to step on my man
because he's handling handed me
588
00:34:27,900 --> 00:34:29,800
my ass right now.
Yep.
589
00:34:30,100 --> 00:34:31,300
All right.
Couple other things.
590
00:34:31,300 --> 00:34:35,500
Brian we let's mention about on
the players chance, black
591
00:34:35,500 --> 00:34:38,199
muffin, those kickoffs holy
shit.
592
00:34:38,300 --> 00:34:42,199
First of all, any time a kickoff
is muff, any kind of kick as
593
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:45,199
Mufti?
It's just like as a fan it's
594
00:34:45,199 --> 00:34:48,900
like, oh shit, not good, not
good.
595
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:53,000
If it's bad because it
automatically takes away some of
596
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:57,800
the potential that the plays in
your playbook that you want to
597
00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,500
call as an offensive
coordinator.
598
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,600
Because now you're starting
inside the 10.
599
00:35:03,100 --> 00:35:05,700
Those play calls are going to be
a lot more conservative most
600
00:35:05,700 --> 00:35:07,400
time, especially for a team like
this.
601
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:11,700
That hasn't had a ton of
success, which is lining up and
602
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,000
doing, what they You to a
defense regardless of what kind
603
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,300
of looks they're getting we
don't we don't have that kind of
604
00:35:17,300 --> 00:35:21,900
offense right now so now you
either take the risk of taking
605
00:35:21,900 --> 00:35:25,200
shots from inside the 10 and if
you don't hit it now you're
606
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:29,200
putting to them you know in that
40 to 50 yard range or you're
607
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:33,000
risking a safety in a tight game
and things like that or you get
608
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,600
more conservative till you get
that first first first down or
609
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,900
two and we just we never got
that.
610
00:35:39,900 --> 00:35:42,800
Now we got handed a gift that we
ended up giving back on the A
611
00:35:42,808 --> 00:35:46,300
couple plays on that penalty,
true.
612
00:35:46,300 --> 00:35:50,600
When the late hit on Wells out
of bounds, when a late hit
613
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,800
necessarily but the unnecessary
roughness before throwing him
614
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,700
around.
After, after he got it rode him
615
00:35:55,700 --> 00:35:58,600
out of bounds, Peyton Wilson had
it, if he just lets him go on
616
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,100
rides, it's nothing.
But when he jerked, they weren't
617
00:36:01,100 --> 00:36:04,000
gonna get.
He didn't initiate that action
618
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,700
before he went out of bounds.
So it was the steps where out
619
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:11,400
and I think the last thing Ryan
coach you prize said it.
620
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,600
You said it, it's all the I
think, and it's depressing is
621
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,700
when you don't be, when you
start pressing the techniques
622
00:36:17,700 --> 00:36:21,900
gone, you don't play Within the
structure and bad things happen.
623
00:36:21,900 --> 00:36:27,500
And again, I go back to what I
think about this class being
624
00:36:27,500 --> 00:36:31,200
under 500 going into this year.
I don't think a lot of these
625
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:35,000
guys who have been playing here
for the last four years, guys,
626
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,000
you know, you come to love.
You love to see them play, you
627
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:42,100
want to see them do well.
I think that is what it is and I
628
00:36:42,107 --> 00:36:46,800
think it's literally going to
take a lot of new blood to flush
629
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:51,000
that out of the system.
Well, shit, I've said it a lot
630
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,500
and I know, I'm kind of
reiterating some of the, a
631
00:36:53,508 --> 00:36:57,100
matter of our take it elsewhere.
But, you know, we got a lot of
632
00:36:57,100 --> 00:37:01,200
veterans that have played that
have been role players on this
633
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,800
team that we are asking them
this year because of our depth
634
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:10,600
concerns to be the man at
certain positions. and some of
635
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:15,700
that may be beyond their skill
set, And we're talking about
636
00:37:15,700 --> 00:37:17,500
spread that I'm not just at one
position.
637
00:37:17,500 --> 00:37:20,200
I just said two positions but
probably over about five or six
638
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,800
positions.
We were asking guys that are
639
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:28,200
more veteran role players to be
veteran leaders and Veteran
640
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,800
standout players on this team
and that works for a quarter or
641
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,900
two.
But we're seeing it doesn't
642
00:37:33,900 --> 00:37:36,800
always work for four quarters
and two.
643
00:37:37,700 --> 00:37:38,800
That's it.
And that's what we're seeing a
644
00:37:38,808 --> 00:37:41,100
lot of.
So we when you see these young
645
00:37:41,100 --> 00:37:43,400
guys going out there and
competing, that's a good sign
646
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,500
because it shows that You know,
we could have that potential
647
00:37:46,500 --> 00:37:49,300
down the road but we've got to
we've got a lot of backfilling
648
00:37:49,300 --> 00:37:52,200
to do we did and it's going to
take you know you here.
649
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:56,100
Leslie is going to take the
portal and cycler and the Cycles
650
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,300
to backfill kind of the
situation that we kind of been
651
00:37:59,300 --> 00:38:01,400
dealt with with the last you
know two to three years of
652
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,600
recruiting and we have roster
has been managing those periods
653
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,800
which was not good but you kind
of started it right there but I
654
00:38:07,808 --> 00:38:11,500
think we as fans you know,
everybody's pissed for two and
655
00:38:11,500 --> 00:38:14,200
six.
We're I think because we're a
656
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:18,200
little Beyond this or two in 66.
I think that's being a little
657
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,900
older.
We start reading between the
658
00:38:20,900 --> 00:38:22,900
lines, because the record is
what it is.
659
00:38:22,900 --> 00:38:26,500
We're 216, that's who we are,
but if you start looking at this
660
00:38:26,500 --> 00:38:30,600
team, in the record, we have
only been truly drilled once and
661
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,000
that was Carolina.
They were twenty-four ten and
662
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,500
half.
They 140. 110, we were that we
663
00:38:35,500 --> 00:38:38,500
were drilled.
The game was over early, third
664
00:38:38,500 --> 00:38:40,700
quarter.
It wasn't, it wasn't closed for
665
00:38:40,700 --> 00:38:42,300
a long time.
Yeah, it wasn't.
666
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:47,800
For a long time but you kind of
sit back and say, Brian, you
667
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,900
know, a lot of these other
games, it's right there.
668
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:57,800
And at the end, it falls apart.
And in their quarters where me
669
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:02,300
and you both say?
If that team right there, third
670
00:39:02,300 --> 00:39:08,600
quarter this week, if that team
right there, showed up 75% of
671
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:12,300
the time.
We would be one in 75 or 80% of
672
00:39:12,300 --> 00:39:15,000
our games like those quarter
stretches.
673
00:39:15,500 --> 00:39:18,300
Now, the defense we've seen it
multiple cores.
674
00:39:18,300 --> 00:39:20,700
We saw it against Miami.
We saw it against State.
675
00:39:21,100 --> 00:39:23,800
We saw at the first three
quarters against West Virginia.
676
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,000
The defense is consistently, put
two and three quarters together
677
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,100
in a game.
Not have necessarily played for
678
00:39:29,100 --> 00:39:33,100
yet BC for three quarters.
Yeah I'll give them be safe.
679
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,600
I'll give him BC.
We know how bad BC is.
680
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:39,900
So yeah but with the offense
it's like one off cost.
681
00:39:40,100 --> 00:39:43,900
Hours, and when I say one-off
quarters, I mean this week that
682
00:39:43,900 --> 00:39:45,700
third quarter, eight minutes, 21
points.
683
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,700
Yeah, eight minutes of the game,
six minutes after the session 21
684
00:39:49,700 --> 00:39:52,000
points.
I ain't trying to say where I
685
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,400
live but that's Alabama, shit
that's Tennessee shit, that's
686
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,500
Ohio, State shit, where it's
like, Bam, Bam, Bam 21 points.
687
00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:01,800
Six minutes And that's how they
bury it but you look at that
688
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,100
game.
The Miami fourth quarter feet
689
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,800
early, first quarter into the
second and pit where it's just
690
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:11,300
like 14-point 17 points in, in
short stretches.
691
00:40:11,900 --> 00:40:17,100
So I said here and it's like a
silver lining and I say people
692
00:40:17,100 --> 00:40:19,000
are already saying Powerball and
should be fired.
693
00:40:19,700 --> 00:40:21,100
No.
First of all, I don't think
694
00:40:21,100 --> 00:40:24,600
anybody's getting fired.
You're wondering if that's your
695
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:26,600
go-to like who we should fire
people.
696
00:40:28,300 --> 00:40:31,800
Go look at Tennessee, go look at
a lot of these programs.
697
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:35,200
It took years to cook 15 years
to rebuild, where they are.
698
00:40:35,500 --> 00:40:37,800
They kept firing people over and
over.
699
00:40:38,100 --> 00:40:39,800
But I look at it.
You see those Silver?
700
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,300
Linings And it's consistency,
right?
701
00:40:43,300 --> 00:40:46,500
Brian, like, yeah.
We seen flashes and it's like
702
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:50,600
shit.
And I think that goes back to
703
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,500
what I was just saying earlier,
is, like, you know, we're seeing
704
00:40:53,500 --> 00:40:56,400
these flashes and we're hoping
that we can put some of that
705
00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:00,000
more together.
When we say we're not seeing
706
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:01,900
progress, I think we're not
seeing progress because we're
707
00:41:01,900 --> 00:41:07,600
still losing losing games, but
there are things here there that
708
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:11,300
give you, you know, a little
hope of what's to come.
709
00:41:11,300 --> 00:41:14,900
Now, what I want to see a lot
more of is, you know, when we
710
00:41:14,900 --> 00:41:21,400
talked Back in March early,
March we did the the preview the
711
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,000
preview episode with Robbie,
Robbie came on, he broke down,
712
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,400
what we can expect, from prion,
the defense, I looked at the
713
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,700
offense, I looked at a lot for
them tape.
714
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,800
Looked at some of the Penn State
stuff, things like that.
715
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:38,500
And looking at looking at
Fordham, you know, we saw some
716
00:41:38,500 --> 00:41:41,700
different things from that
offense that we haven't seen yet
717
00:41:41,700 --> 00:41:45,600
in this.
And I don't know if that is
718
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:46,900
weird.
Doing this.
719
00:41:46,900 --> 00:41:49,700
Well, so we haven't kind of
taken the next step and put this
720
00:41:49,700 --> 00:41:51,600
part of the offense in there
yet.
721
00:41:51,900 --> 00:41:55,900
I don't know whether it's that
some of the, the team isn't
722
00:41:55,900 --> 00:41:58,300
comfortable with running those
plays yet, hasn't shown it.
723
00:41:58,900 --> 00:42:01,000
Well enough in practice, where
they're comfortable with the
724
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,600
calls in the game.
Whatever the reason is, I want
725
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:11,000
to see a little bit more from
this offense in terms of when
726
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,700
that bread and butter isn't
working early, having something
727
00:42:13,700 --> 00:42:17,600
to Pivot to having having some
things that give the defense
728
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:22,900
fits that aren't just.
We're going to do we do and beat
729
00:42:22,900 --> 00:42:29,100
you that way because one of my
complaints against corn corn
730
00:42:29,100 --> 00:42:32,200
corn had a bad system and was
also a bad play caller.
731
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,000
I still think the system was
decent.
732
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:38,000
I think he was just system is,
but I'm saying in terms of how
733
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,600
he operated the system with.
If it's a pass play, you got to
734
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:45,100
throw it here or then you gotta
run it or eat it?
735
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,300
Yeah, I don't, I don't I don't
like that shit.
736
00:42:48,300 --> 00:42:51,400
So that's still on him.
And that's not just a calling
737
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,800
the game thing.
That's a, this is how I want to
738
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:58,100
run my scheme thing.
Yeah, I got the steam itself.
739
00:42:58,100 --> 00:43:01,800
In terms of the plays were not
bad, it was how he wanted the
740
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,600
quarterback.
Execute said, calls that was
741
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:09,900
awful, combine that with having
zero, zero flow in the game.
742
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,200
And that's something I think we,
we don't see from Tyler bone, he
743
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:16,500
lets Royals operate because, as
well as Operate.
744
00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:20,000
Now, the problem is that we
haven't gotten deep enough into
745
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:24,100
the Playbook where, you know,
what we've what we've shown on
746
00:43:24,100 --> 00:43:27,700
film is almost kind of what we
see every game, the game.
747
00:43:28,900 --> 00:43:33,600
And I need to see more variety
and, and some more wrinkles from
748
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:35,200
the solvents.
And we're seeing them here or
749
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:40,500
there, but I don't think we're
seeing enough where it's giving
750
00:43:40,500 --> 00:43:42,800
us an advantage against the
defense we have.
751
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,900
And, and I'm going to be just
very honest with you on that.
752
00:43:47,100 --> 00:43:50,400
You go for games, you're two and
six, nothing can get worse.
753
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:54,800
If you're trying to figure out
how it if Wells is going to be
754
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:56,800
your primary starter.
Next year, he's going to battle
755
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,100
for a job.
It's almost Like rip the
756
00:43:59,100 --> 00:44:02,500
Band-Aid off, and just give them
everything and see how the
757
00:44:02,500 --> 00:44:06,000
offense works because by all
means, if you lose 40, you lose
758
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:09,800
four in a row, you're two.
And six to me, there is nothing
759
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,400
to lose.
And at least with this, you get
760
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:18,100
a full scope, a full scope of
Grant Wells, operating
761
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:22,300
everything in the Playbook not
just inside the Box.
762
00:44:23,300 --> 00:44:26,200
Yeah.
All right let's flip it over.
763
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:28,700
Brian other college football
notes.
764
00:44:28,700 --> 00:44:31,800
Obviously tonight I had to have
you texted I had a couple
765
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,900
buddies Malik Mike text me like
we all think of the playoff I'm
766
00:44:34,900 --> 00:44:37,400
like, haven't seen it yet.
This is literally the first time
767
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,700
seeing it right now.
And I'm actually proud of the
768
00:44:40,700 --> 00:44:45,400
committee putting Tennessee at
one, Ohio State at to Georgia
769
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:50,100
three Clemson forward Michigan
five Tennessee.
770
00:44:50,100 --> 00:44:55,100
Has beat multiple multiple
ranked football teams.
771
00:44:55,400 --> 00:45:00,900
Yep.
Multiple and Ohio State has beat
772
00:45:00,900 --> 00:45:03,700
multiple ranked Notre Dame,
doesn't look as good.
773
00:45:03,700 --> 00:45:07,300
But the Penn State Victory last
week, obviously really good.
774
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:11,500
I think they got it, right?
I really do.
775
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:15,600
And obviously, if you take a
look at that, we've got to play
776
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:19,200
in games on the way in the next
month, ones this week.
777
00:45:19,300 --> 00:45:20,700
Came.
We're going to talk about that
778
00:45:20,700 --> 00:45:23,000
one later, trust us.
What about you?
779
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,100
Did you do you think it's right?
Do you like Clemson being it
780
00:45:26,100 --> 00:45:28,200
for?
Or would you have put Michigan
781
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,100
there?
Ought to put Michigan there.
782
00:45:31,100 --> 00:45:35,400
I thought that she was going to
be for, I like it.
783
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,600
Otherwise, I mean, I can make an
argument for Georgia over Ohio
784
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,100
State, but they're very
neck-and-neck.
785
00:45:41,100 --> 00:45:44,400
In my opinion, Tennessee has the
best resume.
786
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,300
I don't know if they're the best
team, but they certainly have
787
00:45:46,300 --> 00:45:49,400
the best resume, which is why
they are number one in That,
788
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,200
that's a fair number one for
them.
789
00:45:53,100 --> 00:45:57,000
Like I said, I could argue
Georgia to, or Ohio State it to,
790
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,100
I think Clemson is probably the
only one that got wrong at this
791
00:46:00,100 --> 00:46:02,000
point.
I would definitely put them kind
792
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:05,200
of just outside looking in in
the initial pole.
793
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,000
I think, Michigan's kind of done
more so far.
794
00:46:10,100 --> 00:46:12,900
Okay.
And you know, I think I'd put
795
00:46:12,900 --> 00:46:16,600
them behind Michigan and
obviously Alabama's number 6
796
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:18,000
here.
So I put them just ahead of
797
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,500
Alabama.
Oh, Are they an unblemished
798
00:46:20,500 --> 00:46:21,600
record?
Are they now?
799
00:46:21,900 --> 00:46:26,600
Placing so an undefeated team is
below a loss, Alabama?
800
00:46:27,100 --> 00:46:30,600
Yeah, Theses below Alabama,
yeah, that's always irritating
801
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,400
to me.
So TCU, has not been proven.
802
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:39,200
They can be beaten correct.
Alabama has Alabama, has shown,
803
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:42,200
they can lose a game tcu's, not
if you flip flop them.
804
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,200
I'm fine with that.
I'm fine with that.
805
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:46,600
I think organs too high.
Don't think you get the doors
806
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:49,000
going off of you.
Even if it's early in the
807
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:50,800
season, I don't think they
should be that high.
808
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:58,100
I think, at least USC Ole, Miss
should be above them, probably
809
00:46:58,100 --> 00:47:00,400
no one else.
I'm not, I don't know how, a to
810
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:04,000
Los LSU team because LSU as
still not impressed.
811
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:09,100
They lost to a mediocre.
Florida State team at home,
812
00:47:09,100 --> 00:47:14,200
pretty much sand, but we'll
discuss that more as we get down
813
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,200
to it.
There's definitely some SEC
814
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:21,400
biases always in there.
But you know It is what it is.
815
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:23,400
I mean, you look at that Florida
State team.
816
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,900
I mean, it's a, it's a better
than we expected, Florida State
817
00:47:26,900 --> 00:47:29,600
team, but still nothing to write
home about Florida, State team.
818
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,600
Yeah.
Now, if this was the 12 team
819
00:47:32,700 --> 00:47:37,500
that would be games in Ann,
Arbor Tuscaloosa Fort Worth in
820
00:47:37,500 --> 00:47:40,400
at the Autzen Zoo decision.
And I don't worry.
821
00:47:50,800 --> 00:48:00,700
Zero degrees on the East Coast
having to go to the zoo.
822
00:48:01,500 --> 00:48:04,900
Well, that would be actually.
That would be USC.
823
00:48:06,100 --> 00:48:07,900
Have it that way?
They probably flip it put, like,
824
00:48:07,900 --> 00:48:12,000
LSU there to go up to the zoo.
That'd be nice and yeah, so it's
825
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,200
interesting.
All right, other big news this
826
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:18,900
week, the Big 12, new TV deal,
the dominoes are slowly falling
827
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:23,300
2.28, Million over six years
between Fox and ESPN.
828
00:48:24,100 --> 00:48:31,200
I'd love to see the numbers from
each because obviously obviously
829
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:33,600
the math is roughly 30 million a
year.
830
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:38,100
I think Big 12 st.
Closer to 50 with all the other
831
00:48:38,100 --> 00:48:39,400
payouts.
Well we're looking strictly at
832
00:48:39,408 --> 00:48:41,500
the TV money because the other
payouts are variable.
833
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:43,400
Yep.
You may get some of it.
834
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:45,900
You may not get some of it so
keep that off the table.
835
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,100
But let's say split right down
there.
836
00:48:48,100 --> 00:48:50,300
So some of it, some of its a
straight shares.
837
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:52,900
Some of it depends on where you
land.
838
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,400
Exactly.
But if you if we just say, it's
839
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:59,700
a straight middle and it's 1.14
billion.
840
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:05,800
We know that 1 Point 1 4 billion
for ESP and I'm focused more on
841
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:11,800
ESPN than Fox because fox has
the Big Ten.
842
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:16,800
They have the big 12, the Pac-12
deal still not done yet which is
843
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:20,300
really in.
This is a good-sized deal but
844
00:49:20,300 --> 00:49:28,900
now you know 1.14 is roughly how
much a year God I hate doing
845
00:49:28,900 --> 00:49:31,600
math, this late.
If I had a chance to do this
846
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:34,400
earlier, we're doing split
straight, split wouldn't be 15.
847
00:49:37,300 --> 00:49:41,500
What 15 or know what I'm saying
is, how much money each year?
848
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:44,900
ESPN is going into it.
I got would be suited, be
849
00:49:44,900 --> 00:49:48,800
something like 200, probably
right under 200 million a year.
850
00:49:50,500 --> 00:49:52,900
So close to 15 a year per
payout.
851
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:56,200
But what, that tells you right
there though, is they still got
852
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:59,500
money left.
Now I think they're going to
853
00:49:59,500 --> 00:50:02,500
bump the SEC up but I think the
AC even though they're locked
854
00:50:02,500 --> 00:50:08,900
into the 15-year deal.
ESPN is going to probably pay a
855
00:50:08,908 --> 00:50:12,900
little bit more.
I think the acc's with with the
856
00:50:12,900 --> 00:50:16,100
ACC Network going full live is
close to 30 million.
857
00:50:16,100 --> 00:50:18,900
Now, think it's what it is, like
twenty seven and a half.
858
00:50:19,500 --> 00:50:22,500
I think the ACC will get a
little bit more to product to
859
00:50:22,500 --> 00:50:23,600
me.
I think the ACC is going to be
860
00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:26,500
probably closer to thirty seven
straight TV deal.
861
00:50:27,300 --> 00:50:31,100
And but this is what we talked
about because the big Tim's gone
862
00:50:31,500 --> 00:50:34,700
ESPN does not have the Big Ten
in a few years and it was all
863
00:50:34,700 --> 00:50:36,900
that money.
Then you know, they bid up to a
864
00:50:36,900 --> 00:50:40,900
point probably somewhere in the
neighborhood of about 70 million
865
00:50:40,900 --> 00:50:43,800
and team.
And now that money is coming
866
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,500
back so it's going to be
interested to see how that plays
867
00:50:46,500 --> 00:50:47,600
out.
Yeah.
868
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:49,200
Yeah.
What do they do with an extra
869
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:50,700
money?
Does does a cut of that?
870
00:50:50,700 --> 00:50:55,000
Go to the ACC in a renegotiated
deal?
871
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,800
Does all of that go to the SEC?
I don't think it all can go to
872
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:01,100
the SEC.
I don't think it does either.
873
00:51:01,100 --> 00:51:03,100
Don't think it does either.
I think they get a good shot
874
00:51:03,300 --> 00:51:05,000
well, because of where their
contract is now.
875
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,900
They run.
Roughly only need about.
876
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:16,200
I feel like they only need maybe
do the math here, maybe like 250
877
00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,100
million a year to be above the
Big Ten.
878
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:20,600
Okay.
And so obviously we don't have
879
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,300
big, The Big Ten steel is, we
know you.
880
00:51:23,300 --> 00:51:26,500
Look at this, it's probably
another 200 million out there.
881
00:51:26,500 --> 00:51:31,300
How much goes back to the ACC,
Do they negotiate?
882
00:51:31,300 --> 00:51:34,200
Anything with the Pac-12?
Now that you're down to 10 teams
883
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,000
will be interesting.
All right.
884
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:39,900
Last piece before we head to
break here, Brian Harrison for
885
00:51:39,900 --> 00:51:45,400
real got fired today, not a
catfish, not a catfish, not me,
886
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:49,100
Barrett Sally, confirmed it and
I'm going to be honest.
887
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,000
They haven't heard the ad, they
look like doing the Mississippi
888
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:56,700
State ad, which God bless that
guy because to take it with
889
00:51:56,700 --> 00:51:59,400
those freaking lunatic snout on
the plains.
890
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:05,300
Who wants to coach their like
seriously like who would who in
891
00:52:05,300 --> 00:52:08,100
their right mind would actually
want to try to coach their?
892
00:52:08,700 --> 00:52:14,100
Yeah, I mean you know Brian
Harrison is done himself zero
893
00:52:14,100 --> 00:52:16,200
favors in this all.
Yes, and let's go ahead and put
894
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:21,500
that out there. 00 favors at the
same time.
895
00:52:23,900 --> 00:52:27,200
With those with those donors out
there, it's a clown show, man.
896
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:32,800
They, they run everything.
The thing is, it's constantly,
897
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:35,400
we got to get rid of people, we
need to do something different,
898
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:40,100
and it's just like, they had Gus
for, you know, close to 78 years
899
00:52:40,100 --> 00:52:42,300
and God took him to a national
championship.
900
00:52:42,300 --> 00:52:45,000
Gus had them in the running,
godspeed, Alabama, a few times.
901
00:52:46,100 --> 00:52:51,600
They're one of those programs to
me that they get a little
902
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:55,300
winning in them.
They come Lately, forget who
903
00:52:55,300 --> 00:52:58,000
they are.
And then when they have a couple
904
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,200
mediocre season, everybody wants
to burn plates down because oh,
905
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:04,000
it's all screwed up.
You are who you are.
906
00:53:04,300 --> 00:53:05,800
And that's where the Mississippi
State guy.
907
00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:09,600
Got bless his soul.
Yeah, I mean, I think they want
908
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:15,500
so bad to be like Tier 1 all the
time, like some of the some of
909
00:53:15,500 --> 00:53:20,200
their other in-state Rivals.
And some of the other teams in
910
00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:23,300
their conference, and they need
to recognize that.
911
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:26,200
That they're, they're a team
that because of the money that
912
00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:30,900
they have, they can punch up but
they're still going to be more
913
00:53:30,900 --> 00:53:33,500
or less, a tear to type program
consistently.
914
00:53:33,900 --> 00:53:37,600
Yeah, we lack the ability to
punch up.
915
00:53:38,100 --> 00:53:41,300
What they've done the last 11
years, though, I would take it
916
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,700
to.
Oh, yeah, and be saved game of
917
00:53:43,700 --> 00:53:46,500
appearances.
Only really, really only two Bad
918
00:53:46,500 --> 00:53:50,700
seasons and then the rest can
really take it even further back
919
00:53:50,700 --> 00:53:52,900
than that.
I mean, if you go back last 20
920
00:53:52,900 --> 00:53:59,500
years, I don't for I mean they
said really good teams, really
921
00:53:59,500 --> 00:54:02,200
good team.
I definitely take it heartbeats
922
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:05,800
because just because you're not
that Elite of elite every year.
923
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:11,800
I mean again you punched up a
few times you've you know,
924
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:15,100
you've you've won the big ones
that you've had to win to put
925
00:54:15,100 --> 00:54:17,400
yourself in a position to play
in some big games.
926
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:20,900
Yeah, absolutely.
All right.
927
00:54:20,900 --> 00:54:23,800
So Brian before we get to know
the enemy for N.c.
928

Dash report.
Now back to the episode.
937
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:55,100
All right Brian, let's start
with Georgia Tech Know, The
938
00:54:55,100 --> 00:54:58,200
Enemy offensive side of the ball
and let's start at the
939
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:01,200
quarterback.
The quarterback which one?
940
00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:06,500
Well they all right, here we go.
Who had not really showed much
941
00:55:06,500 --> 00:55:10,400
of the Freshman Georgia Tech
shown everybody since Jeff
942
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:12,700
Simmons got banged, you got
Sims.
943
00:55:12,700 --> 00:55:14,800
You got Zach, Gibson, and Zach
power.
944
00:55:15,500 --> 00:55:18,500
Let's go.
This order give me.
945
00:55:19,300 --> 00:55:22,600
Obviously Sims has one.
So we'll talk about him last.
946
00:55:23,300 --> 00:55:26,100
Who's the least likely guy?
We're going to see this week and
947
00:55:26,100 --> 00:55:28,600
if he does have to play, give me
a quick.
948
00:55:29,100 --> 00:55:32,800
What we're gonna see in his
offense, more than likely, the
949
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,100
least likely is going to be Zach
Gibson.
950
00:55:35,900 --> 00:55:41,800
He started the last game they
played against FS, you didn't
951
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:47,500
make it very far into that game.
Really more of a, more of an
952
00:55:47,500 --> 00:55:51,400
athlete decent short game
accuracy, with his arm effective
953
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:56,100
in the running game.
Only average arm strength,
954
00:55:56,100 --> 00:55:59,700
average accuracy, not really
effective in the pocket will
955
00:55:59,700 --> 00:56:01,900
panic when he's pressured
consistently.
956
00:56:01,900 --> 00:56:04,900
So not not exactly.
The guy you want to pull the
957
00:56:04,900 --> 00:56:08,100
trigger there in a game
especially against a team like
958
00:56:08,100 --> 00:56:10,900
the Hokies that we know we do
have a pretty effective defense
959
00:56:10,900 --> 00:56:14,300
at least for 3/4.
So so so for if it's Zack
960
00:56:14,500 --> 00:56:15,900
Gibson.
We're going to see the smallest
961
00:56:15,900 --> 00:56:20,200
playbook in the actual
potentially smallest person able
962
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:24,900
to run their offense.
Yes, smallest Playbook just
963
00:56:24,900 --> 00:56:27,500
because he doesn't have the arm
to drive the ball down the
964
00:56:27,500 --> 00:56:28,800
field.
Okay?
965
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:30,200
Okay.
All right.
966
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:32,500
Well, what about pyram?
What about pot?
967
00:56:32,500 --> 00:56:35,000
Because Jeff seems obviously if
he's healthy Sims is going to
968
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:36,100
plane.
He's the best quarterback.
969
00:56:36,100 --> 00:56:37,600
They have.
But what do we see in from
970
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,200
piron?
Pyron is a step up and
971
00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:42,600
athleticism, he's a more
powerful Runner.
972
00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:46,100
He's got a more effective.
More effective arm strength,
973
00:56:48,300 --> 00:56:53,100
does a better job of
intermediate passing game than
974
00:56:53,100 --> 00:56:55,900
Gibson.
He does still like the arm
975
00:56:55,900 --> 00:56:59,500
strength to take some deep shots
consistently, but he will make
976
00:56:59,500 --> 00:57:01,500
some effective throws in the
intermediate passing game.
977
00:57:01,500 --> 00:57:05,300
So it does stretch the field a
little bit there for them, but
978
00:57:05,300 --> 00:57:09,500
he is effective in it three,
step drill and he will scramble.
979
00:57:09,500 --> 00:57:12,200
Well, keep his eyes down field
for check downs and things like
980
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:14,300
that.
So more.
981
00:57:14,500 --> 00:57:15,900
Of em.
And again, probably a more
982
00:57:15,900 --> 00:57:19,600
effective runner in the zone
read because of his size and
983
00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:23,800
power, all right?
And then last clearly if he's
984
00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:31,400
healthy Jeff Sims, the 63 205
pound quarterback out of Duval.
985
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:36,200
Florida composite four-star was
a top 24/7, player top 10
986
00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:38,600
quarterback.
So far this season.
987
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:40,900
He's throwing nine.
Excuse me, he's thrown five
988
00:57:40,900 --> 00:57:47,300
touchdowns only rush for one.
You know over 300 yards there
989
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:51,000
and we we all if you've been
following Hoagie football for
990
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:53,700
the last five years you know who
Jeff Simmons is.
991
00:57:53,700 --> 00:57:57,200
At one point, he was right there
with us and then he decided to
992
00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:00,600
go to Georgia Tech.
What do we see from him?
993
00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:03,700
That makes him obviously, if
they want him to start.
994
00:58:04,700 --> 00:58:06,300
Yeah, I mean the big thing is
confidence.
995
00:58:06,300 --> 00:58:09,300
He's a quick decision, maker
delivers, a good accurate ball
996
00:58:09,300 --> 00:58:11,600
that allows receiver to kind of
turn up field.
997
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:14,200
Get some yards after the catch.
Great ass.
998
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,500
You expect extends plays with
his legs.
999
00:58:16,500 --> 00:58:20,900
Looks to make the play down the
field as he's kind of escaping
1000
00:58:20,900 --> 00:58:24,600
the pocket and getting to the
perimeter, he is a type of
1001
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:26,800
quarterback, you know, that we
I've been talking about that can
1002
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:28,200
Elevate the play of those around
him.
1003
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:31,100
He's that type of player but he
will take risks with the
1004
00:58:31,100 --> 00:58:33,400
football in the passing game.
So, there is some opportunities
1005
00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:37,000
for some, you know, potential
fumbles or turnovers there.
1006
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:42,100
But I mean, he's definitely the
one of the better quarterbacks
1007
00:58:42,100 --> 00:58:46,300
we've seen this year in terms of
his Skill set and definitely the
1008
00:58:46,300 --> 00:58:51,300
best quarterback on that roster.
Yeah, I mean he obviously is the
1009
00:58:51,300 --> 00:58:53,100
best.
If he's If he if you see him
1010
00:58:53,100 --> 00:58:56,100
playing you're going to get
their best game offensive ly,
1011
00:58:56,100 --> 00:58:58,400
which isn't the greatest, which
we'll talk about later.
1012
00:58:58,700 --> 00:59:00,600
But let's just be very honest
with this team.
1013
00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:04,600
This team is a run first team.
They, you know, they've ran the
1014
00:59:04,607 --> 00:59:06,800
ball 30 more times than they
passed it.
1015
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:10,300
Because a, they've given a 30
sacks or they're giving up a
1016
00:59:10,300 --> 00:59:13,300
sack about one.
Every eight drop backs, but they
1017
00:59:13,300 --> 00:59:15,900
have actually a couple Two
really good running backs in the
1018
00:59:15,900 --> 00:59:17,500
first.
Let's talk about here is on,
1019
00:59:17,700 --> 00:59:21,600
let's talk about.
Hassan Hall, a transfer from
1020
00:59:21,700 --> 00:59:27,700
Louisville class of 2018 was a
mid three-star there from the
1021
00:59:27,700 --> 00:59:31,400
state of Georgia at Maynard
Jackson in Atlanta, and, you
1022
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,800
know, so far this season brown
with a sign.
1023
00:59:34,100 --> 00:59:39,100
He's averaging, you know, just
over five yards, a carry 315
1024
00:59:39,100 --> 00:59:43,000
total yards.
Interesting piece here is no
1025
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:47,500
touchdown.
So that's something to keep an
1026
00:59:47,500 --> 00:59:52,200
eye on in.
You know what are you seeing
1027
00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:56,100
from him on the tape?
Yeah, he's pretty effective.
1028
00:59:57,100 --> 01:00:01,500
Catching the ball out of the
backfield solid vision and he's
1029
01:00:01,500 --> 01:00:05,500
an angry Runner finishes, his
runs well good at identifying
1030
01:00:05,500 --> 01:00:09,300
cut back Lanes, that's where you
kind of gets a lot of his extra
1031
01:00:09,300 --> 01:00:12,300
yardage there but he's not
really a home run threat in the
1032
01:00:12,300 --> 01:00:14,900
offense.
He's not heavily Used around the
1033
01:00:14,900 --> 01:00:19,900
goal line.
They usually focus more on some
1034
01:00:19,900 --> 01:00:25,300
other guys, whether it's whether
it be Sims or one of the other
1035
01:00:25,300 --> 01:00:28,100
quarterback quarterbacks trying
to get when they get around the
1036
01:00:28,107 --> 01:00:33,100
goal line there.
But he's he's one of those guys
1037
01:00:33,100 --> 01:00:35,600
that gets you a lot of yardage
kind of between the 20s.
1038
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:40,800
Alrighty.
So now they have a second
1039
01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:42,900
running back as well.
Let's talk about him Nationals.
1040
01:00:42,900 --> 01:00:47,300
Talk about Dante Smith Smith so
far this year.
1041
01:00:47,700 --> 01:00:51,300
Again also averaging five your
over five yards, a carry at five
1042
01:00:51,300 --> 01:00:57,000
point, one three touchdowns, 258
total yards, little bit of
1043
01:00:57,000 --> 01:01:04,200
receiving eight receptions in
eight games and you know, came
1044
01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:07,600
was a myth 3 star coming out of
Spring Hill.
1045
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:10,800
Columbia Tennessee.
All-purpose back.
1046
01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:16,300
Not a lot of D1 offers but, you
know, a little bit of speed
1047
01:01:16,300 --> 01:01:18,200
there.
What makes him a little bit
1048
01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:21,600
different than Hall?
Yeah, he's moreover the
1049
01:01:21,607 --> 01:01:24,400
perimeter threat than Hall,
especially running the ball,
1050
01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:27,700
he's primarily uses kind of
their third down or change of
1051
01:01:27,700 --> 01:01:31,900
pace.
Back better, blocker overall and
1052
01:01:31,900 --> 01:01:34,400
they do use him in some of the
heavier packages around the goal
1053
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:38,300
line, in place of Hall to kind
of punch it in. 46.
1054
01:01:41,100 --> 01:01:44,000
All right.
And you know just kind of
1055
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:47,800
looking in general with these
guys Hall is I would say the
1056
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:52,500
lead back of the to he's out
Carrie Smith by, you know, over
1057
01:01:52,500 --> 01:01:56,100
30 carries in, you know, Georgia
Tech's first, eight game so
1058
01:01:56,300 --> 01:01:59,600
roughly getting probably four to
five more touches, probably
1059
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:06,300
seeing the field 8 to 10, more
snaps than Smith just based on
1060
01:02:06,300 --> 01:02:08,600
that.
But obviously Smith has the nose
1061
01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:12,400
for the end zone.
We're Hall doesn't and even
1062
01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:15,500
though we've mentioned that this
is a run team and you see Jeff
1063
01:02:15,500 --> 01:02:18,000
Sims numbers.
You know he's got over 300 total
1064
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:22,800
rushing yards with a touchdown.
They do have some receivers you
1065
01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:26,200
know and as we started kind of
looking at a little bit of
1066
01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:29,200
everybody, I thought about going
to Nate McCullum.
1067
01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:32,600
Who is their leading Rod
receiver.
1068
01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:36,100
But something with Malachi
Carter just kind of caught my
1069
01:02:36,100 --> 01:02:39,200
eye on a couple, his games
couple of his games.
1070
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:43,300
He only had a few catches but
put up kind of bigger numbers
1071
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:47,400
and I wanted to kind of get your
feel on him.
1072
01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:51,100
Brian you know was a three-star
when he came out in 2018 out of
1073
01:02:51,100 --> 01:02:54,300
Georgia.
What makes him a little
1074
01:02:54,300 --> 01:02:56,600
difference where I see a couple
of those games where he kind of
1075
01:02:56,600 --> 01:03:01,300
popped over 15 yards, a carry.
Yeah, most of that is from the
1076
01:03:01,300 --> 01:03:03,500
yards after the catch.
He has good hands.
1077
01:03:03,500 --> 01:03:06,000
He runs.
Well, after the catch, mostly
1078
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:10,100
works from the outside sometimes
for the slot dangerous in the
1079
01:03:10,100 --> 01:03:14,400
open field, he's not really used
much in the screen game though
1080
01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:18,900
that makes most of his hay in
that kind of intermediate range.
1081
01:03:18,900 --> 01:03:21,700
So when they are attacking a
little bit more downfield,
1082
01:03:22,500 --> 01:03:24,100
that's kind of where he makes
his hay.
1083
01:03:24,100 --> 01:03:27,200
And he's he does a pretty good
job after the catch with some of
1084
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:29,300
those balls.
Yeah.
1085
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:33,400
I wanted to focus on that also
when Brown when you kind of
1086
01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:37,800
through your notes in there and
it kind of made me think this
1087
01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:42,400
tackles been better this year,
but he's the guy we do not want
1088
01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:44,700
to see, get the ball in space
and start missing tackles, he
1089
01:03:44,700 --> 01:03:49,400
will make us pay.
So I hope we can keep him under
1090
01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:54,500
wraps for the game but again
also listen mate, McCullum EJ
1091
01:03:54,500 --> 01:03:56,600
Jenkins just a couple other wide
receiver names.
1092
01:03:56,600 --> 01:03:59,300
They're all right Braun let's
talk about it.
1093
01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:02,400
It will talk about the scheme on
the offense and let's talk about
1094
01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:05,000
the offensive line.
Yeah.
1095
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,300
I mean I'd say probably
especially in past Pro.
1096
01:04:07,300 --> 01:04:09,300
This is the the worst offensive
line unit.
1097
01:04:09,300 --> 01:04:13,700
We've seen since BC, we need to
stay aggressive and keep
1098
01:04:13,700 --> 01:04:16,000
pressure on them.
To keep them frustrated, they
1099
01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:21,200
are good when they can kind of
create predictable outcomes.
1100
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:25,500
They're not good.
When you get aggressive with
1101
01:04:25,500 --> 01:04:28,600
them.
When you confuse them, they
1102
01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:31,500
become a shell.
So if we can stay aggressive the
1103
01:04:31,500 --> 01:04:34,600
whole game and bring some
pressure, especially in a game
1104
01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:38,700
where we're not quite as worried
about the downfield throws, you
1105
01:04:38,700 --> 01:04:41,100
know, you, hopefully we can, we
can hold up on the back and a
1106
01:04:41,107 --> 01:04:43,900
little bit better than we did
laid against NC State.
1107
01:04:44,100 --> 01:04:46,700
But I mean we're looking at it
kind of a Smash Mouth spread,
1108
01:04:46,700 --> 01:04:49,600
it's going to be heavy, heavy
heavy Zone.
1109
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:54,400
Read our po elements, they're
not taking a ton of shots
1110
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:57,100
downfield.
This is very much a run focused
1111
01:04:57,100 --> 01:05:04,800
run first offense And without
Sims their damn near a triple
1112
01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:10,200
option team.
A lot of times guys, we know
1113
01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:14,400
about Georgia Tech in the triple
option but you know, they really
1114
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:19,000
kind of become that that type of
almost run exclusive.
1115
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:21,700
Unless they're, they're playing
from behind type team.
1116
01:05:22,500 --> 01:05:27,000
They were down multiple scores
against FSU and they were still,
1117
01:05:27,900 --> 01:05:34,100
you know, run run. and then pass
when they had to So that they
1118
01:05:34,100 --> 01:05:37,100
were going to, they definitely
want to run the football if
1119
01:05:37,100 --> 01:05:40,000
they're going to have success in
the offense woman Chosen and
1120
01:05:40,008 --> 01:05:42,600
he's chosen the staffs mean
they're under six.
1121
01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:48,500
Yeah, it hurt game.
I mean per attempt under six and
1122
01:05:48,500 --> 01:05:51,500
temp, that's just ugly.
Yeah, I think if we do a good
1123
01:05:51,500 --> 01:05:56,100
job attacking that mesh point
that that'll kind of keep things
1124
01:05:56,100 --> 01:06:00,800
in a more predictable outcome,
make sure that we kind of Let
1125
01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:03,400
Jeff Sims give it as much as you
can.
1126
01:06:05,100 --> 01:06:12,400
That would be ideal or put him
in a no-win situation where if
1127
01:06:12,500 --> 01:06:15,000
he gives it or keeps it.
He's kind of eat up that that's
1128
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:18,400
kind of what we need to do.
Keep him living in Hell a little
1129
01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:22,700
bit, but getting a lead on them,
early could really help them.
1130
01:06:22,900 --> 01:06:25,600
Help us kind of get them out of
their game plan there because
1131
01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:26,900
they definitely want to run the
ball.
1132
01:06:26,900 --> 01:06:28,300
They definitely want to kill
clock.
1133
01:06:28,700 --> 01:06:31,300
It's still that type of offense.
Even though we're not seeing
1134
01:06:31,300 --> 01:06:36,200
that that triple option that
flexbone, that we saw from
1135
01:06:37,300 --> 01:06:40,800
Georgia Tech for years, but
it's, but it's me, but it's
1136
01:06:40,800 --> 01:06:43,400
funny, you say it could get them
out of their game plan, but on
1137
01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:46,500
the other hand they just might
stay in their game plan and we
1138
01:06:46,500 --> 01:06:48,500
get up 21 nothing like we're
just going to keep running the
1139
01:06:48,508 --> 01:06:50,700
ball.
Thank you.
1140
01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:54,000
All right.
He's gonna keep running the ball
1141
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:58,900
and not having any success and I
mean they doing well enough, but
1142
01:06:58,900 --> 01:07:00,100
they're not, they're not moving
it.
1143
01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:03,400
Consistently enough to.
Yeah, it's like they'll have an
1144
01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:05,900
eight or ten yard gain a little
back it up with the two or three
1145
01:07:05,900 --> 01:07:09,700
or one or two, and sometimes a
negative play and next thing you
1146
01:07:09,700 --> 01:07:12,700
know, they're punting.
So he's was that.
1147
01:07:12,700 --> 01:07:14,800
That's kind of how we've got a
got to do it.
1148
01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:18,100
We can't let you know, one or
two, first downs, kind of create
1149
01:07:18,100 --> 01:07:21,100
that tidal wave where they end
up rolling into the end zone.
1150
01:07:21,100 --> 01:07:23,800
We got to make sure that we're
getting off the field.
1151
01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:26,100
Absolutely.
Alright.
1152
01:07:26,100 --> 01:07:29,800
So next guy, Braun, we're going
to flip over to defense first.
1153
01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:34,900
Go on Talk about guy who started
his playing career as class of
1154
01:07:34,900 --> 01:07:41,000
2017 at Old Dominion, he
transferred in to Georgia Tech.
1155
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:44,600
He was a two-star when he came
out of high school down.
1156
01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:48,100
In Garner, North Carolina at
Garner, High School, a ski on
1157
01:07:48,100 --> 01:07:50,000
white.
And you know, so far this
1158
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:53,800
season, four sacks leading the
team in sacks.
1159
01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:59,000
You know, thirty five tackles
past deflection as well and he's
1160
01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:04,400
at prototypical All the build
your love on 65 286.
1161
01:08:05,200 --> 01:08:09,400
How does he show on tape?
Really good.
1162
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:15,100
Actually, he's kind of a guy
that they use in a lot of
1163
01:08:15,100 --> 01:08:20,700
different ways.
He's got really good size, which
1164
01:08:20,700 --> 01:08:22,800
helps him kind of slide into a
three technique.
1165
01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:25,800
When they go with a different
line set, but he's also kind of
1166
01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:27,899
that big in that can also rush
the passer.
1167
01:08:27,899 --> 01:08:32,200
Well, the only thing he doesn't
do great, he's not he's not very
1168
01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:35,700
good at shedding blocks and and
for his size he can get moved
1169
01:08:35,700 --> 01:08:40,600
out of the gaps but Wendy can
shoot a gap and penetrate that's
1170
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:44,800
kind of where he makes his hey
and he does a good job there.
1171
01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:48,100
And like I said, for his size
very above average pass rusher,
1172
01:08:48,100 --> 01:08:51,600
whether he's lined up outside
the tackle or inside the tackle,
1173
01:08:53,100 --> 01:08:57,000
Alrighty, let's flip now, let's
look at the two linebackers.
1174
01:08:57,100 --> 01:09:00,899
Let's start with Charlie Thomas.
First of all Thomas out of
1175
01:09:00,899 --> 01:09:05,399
Thomasville High School in
Georgia class of 18, a high 3
1176
01:09:05,399 --> 01:09:08,899
star in the state of Georgia.
Top 50 player down there when he
1177
01:09:08,899 --> 01:09:11,800
came out.
And so far this year, I mean, 70
1178
01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:16,000
total tackles which is second on
the yellow jackets.
1179
01:09:16,300 --> 01:09:18,399
Behind one guy will talk about
in a few minutes.
1180
01:09:18,399 --> 01:09:21,500
He has a sack, he's forced a
fumble, couple of interceptions,
1181
01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:27,399
6220 Seven, where is he lining
up on it with Charlie?
1182
01:09:28,500 --> 01:09:31,100
Yes, so he's a, the positions
called money.
1183
01:09:31,100 --> 01:09:36,800
It's actually similar to the
backer that we were used to, in
1184
01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:41,000
the Bud Foster system.
So he's better against the Run
1185
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:44,700
than the past.
He will Blitz but not quite as
1186
01:09:44,700 --> 01:09:46,800
often as the guy that we're
going to talk about next.
1187
01:09:48,100 --> 01:09:51,899
Navigates the trash.
Well to get to an attack is Gap
1188
01:09:51,899 --> 01:09:56,200
responsibilities, he's
inconsistent in coverage but
1189
01:09:56,200 --> 01:10:00,300
he's pretty solid when he can
kind of read react and drive on
1190
01:10:00,300 --> 01:10:04,600
a route versus having to sit
back and kind of pass guys
1191
01:10:04,600 --> 01:10:10,400
through zones or working man, it
will miss a tackle occasionally,
1192
01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:13,700
especially when he's in Pursuit,
but he's really good.
1193
01:10:13,700 --> 01:10:15,800
He's kind of playing downhill
and is able to kind of square
1194
01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:18,900
guys up.
When you talk about the
1195
01:10:18,900 --> 01:10:23,300
inconsistency in coverage, is
it, is it just the eyes are the
1196
01:10:23,300 --> 01:10:25,000
odds?
Is it just looks like the heads
1197
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:29,400
going everywhere versus, you
know, focus on one thing we see
1198
01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:31,900
when I hear you say
inconsistent, the first thing I
1199
01:10:31,907 --> 01:10:34,900
think of is he's not looking at
the quarterback.
1200
01:10:34,900 --> 01:10:37,500
He's looking at the Players
moving around him.
1201
01:10:37,500 --> 01:10:40,500
We're when you're in zone, it's
like look where the quarterback
1202
01:10:40,500 --> 01:10:45,000
is, if a guy crosses you that's
fine, but you still shouldn't be
1203
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:46,400
there.
Because if you're looking at
1204
01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:48,800
him, He comes back across the
field.
1205
01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:50,900
Well, you're going to be a half
a second leg.
1206
01:10:50,900 --> 01:10:52,400
You're not even gonna be in the
play.
1207
01:10:52,900 --> 01:10:55,500
Yeah, it looks like he's
thinking too much.
1208
01:10:55,900 --> 01:10:59,100
A lot of times when he's in that
kind of true Zone, when he's
1209
01:10:59,100 --> 01:11:02,900
able to kind of see everything
in front of him and just react
1210
01:11:02,900 --> 01:11:05,700
to it a lot better.
Nice.
1211
01:11:05,700 --> 01:11:09,500
So nice kind of what it is.
Alright now let's flip to the
1212
01:11:09,508 --> 01:11:11,300
next Jack.
As I said there were he has 70
1213
01:11:11,300 --> 01:11:12,900
tackles?
You know, that's average antenna
1214
01:11:12,900 --> 01:11:15,500
game.
I need a lot.
1215
01:11:15,900 --> 01:11:21,000
Number two linebacker.
R63 233 pounds out of Olney,
1216
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:26,400
Maryland, 82.
Tackles three and a half sacks.
1217
01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:29,400
Three forced fumbles, just last
week against FSU.
1218
01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:33,600
He had 11 tackles.
So, it's been consistent all
1219
01:11:33,600 --> 01:11:36,900
year.
When he came back out in 2017.
1220
01:11:36,900 --> 01:11:42,500
He was recruited to Maryland.
He did not come originally to
1221
01:11:42,500 --> 01:11:45,200
Georgia Tech.
So, he was a transfer from
1222
01:11:45,200 --> 01:11:50,200
Maryland and he was a Our had a
good you know you take a look at
1223
01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:52,800
his list.
We did show some interest in him
1224
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:54,900
being up at Good Counsel.
It's a pretty good high school
1225
01:11:54,900 --> 01:11:58,700
command but a lot of good looks
for him back.
1226
01:11:58,700 --> 01:12:05,900
Then what's the tape showing?
You know, the statistics say it
1227
01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:11,000
is he their best player on
defense or Yeah, best overall
1228
01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:16,900
player on defense, he plays the
Mac position which is the mic in
1229
01:12:16,900 --> 01:12:19,600
the defense.
He's got good length, plays
1230
01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:21,400
fast, especially when he's
blitzing.
1231
01:12:22,100 --> 01:12:25,600
He does a good job of reading
the play and attacking his Gap.
1232
01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:29,600
Good tackler, especially at the
point of attack, when he's kind
1233
01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:33,500
of between the tackles, they're
not bad in coverage, but he does
1234
01:12:33,500 --> 01:12:37,200
struggle struggle when covering
kind of athletic players like a
1235
01:12:37,200 --> 01:12:39,100
joke or tight in or wide
receiver.
1236
01:12:40,100 --> 01:12:42,500
And he does that sometimes
struggle to shed block.
1237
01:12:42,500 --> 01:12:44,400
So that's kind of.
If we can get him tied up in the
1238
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:47,900
in the middle there we can kind
of neutralize them a little bit.
1239
01:12:48,300 --> 01:12:50,800
So I hear you say that.
That fourth statement there
1240
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:53,400
about covering athletic tight
ends, do you think this is a
1241
01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:58,500
game where Gallo should be at H
put right on that kind of that
1242
01:12:58,500 --> 01:13:01,000
Wing back and force him to
cover.
1243
01:13:02,300 --> 01:13:06,000
Yeah, I would, I would put him
in as much force position as we
1244
01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:10,200
can where he's got to do stuff
in space and cover in space and
1245
01:13:10,600 --> 01:13:12,900
make them run.
Make him run as much as
1246
01:13:12,900 --> 01:13:14,700
possible.
Alrighty.
1247
01:13:14,800 --> 01:13:18,400
Alrighty, let's flip it.
One last player on the defensive
1248
01:13:18,400 --> 01:13:22,500
side of the ball and that is Le
Mi Brooks the defensive back.
1249
01:13:22,900 --> 01:13:30,600
Le miles from Trinity Christian
Academy that name has a afford,
1250
01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:31,900
some other good players from
down.
1251
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:36,500
There he is the class of 2020.
Yes he did get a Virginia Tech
1252
01:13:36,500 --> 01:13:39,000
offer.
No, he did not commit and he was
1253
01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:44,900
a pretty highly rated player for
Star composite cop. 260 player
1254
01:13:44,900 --> 01:13:48,500
nationally a top 20 quarter pipe
50 in Florida.
1255
01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:55,300
We actually were a favorite tool
and him back in 2020 and
1256
01:13:55,300 --> 01:13:59,500
obviously we missed their know.
We weren't no you weren't that.
1257
01:13:59,500 --> 01:14:05,200
We had badly 2020 class man.
Back to haunt us still still so
1258
01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:09,500
far this season, I love the stat
line from to be a defensive
1259
01:14:09,500 --> 01:14:12,000
back.
Thirty three, tackles two
1260
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:15,300
interceptions and five past
deflected.
1261
01:14:15,300 --> 01:14:19,800
So he has been around the ball a
lot this year and also had a
1262
01:14:19,808 --> 01:14:22,500
fumble recovery.
So clearly a nose for the ball.
1263
01:14:23,700 --> 01:14:27,400
What's what?
Smile showing in the secondary
1264
01:14:28,700 --> 01:14:30,700
Yeah, so you play safety for
this team.
1265
01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:33,200
He's probably the best playmaker
in their secondary.
1266
01:14:33,900 --> 01:14:35,700
Really great.
In pursued, making them feel
1267
01:14:35,700 --> 01:14:38,600
tackles finish his plays.
Well, when he has spill area
1268
01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:43,600
responsibilities, he's good but
occasionally sloppy with those
1269
01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:48,500
run fits so that's something
that we can potentially exploit.
1270
01:14:48,900 --> 01:14:52,600
He's also good coverage but he
can be exposed in one-on-one.
1271
01:14:52,600 --> 01:14:54,700
He's very much better when he's
in the zone.
1272
01:14:56,400 --> 01:14:57,900
All right, let's flip it over
now.
1273
01:14:57,900 --> 01:14:59,800
Brian.
Let's talk about this scheme.
1274
01:14:59,800 --> 01:15:03,000
Obviously you mentioned
something we were familiar with,
1275
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:07,200
so I'm going to assume 425 425
but they do.
1276
01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:09,700
They are multiple so you'll see
them kind of mix-and-match
1277
01:15:09,700 --> 01:15:13,000
fronts.
They use that kind of standing D
1278
01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:15,300
in.
It's kind of a hybrid player
1279
01:15:15,300 --> 01:15:18,700
that they'll slide into a backer
position and then slide there
1280
01:15:18,700 --> 01:15:21,900
Sam kind of into more true
nickel.
1281
01:15:21,900 --> 01:15:26,600
So they kind of morph a little
bit into a little bit of a 33
1282
01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:30,200
little bit of a Or kind of
depending on what they need, but
1283
01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:35,700
they are a base for 25 and they
try to switch up those fronts to
1284
01:15:35,700 --> 01:15:38,600
create confusion to create
matchups, that work for them.
1285
01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:43,000
They bring pressure fairly
regularly, usually kind of Zone
1286
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:45,400
Blitz in the early parts of a
drive.
1287
01:15:45,400 --> 01:15:48,100
They'll go more man Blitz as
they kind of get pushed further
1288
01:15:48,100 --> 01:15:52,500
into their own territory.
They force a decent amount of
1289
01:15:52,500 --> 01:15:57,300
turnovers usually off pressure,
and they're very much kind of a
1290
01:15:57,308 --> 01:15:58,800
Bend don't break for.
Safiye.
1291
01:15:59,700 --> 01:16:03,100
You can score on them, but
they're going to try to hold you
1292
01:16:03,100 --> 01:16:05,000
two, three.
All right.
1293
01:16:05,300 --> 01:16:08,000
Well you mentioned the force
turnovers off pressure.
1294
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:10,900
Let's go to the Hokies in the
first thing we can talk about,
1295
01:16:10,900 --> 01:16:15,500
is their turnover margin.
They are a top five team in the
1296
01:16:15,500 --> 01:16:17,800
country in turnover margin with
plus 12.
1297
01:16:19,300 --> 01:16:22,300
Not a lot of plus 12 teams are
three and five.
1298
01:16:22,300 --> 01:16:26,700
So I got nerdy and just started
looking at the game films and in
1299
01:16:26,700 --> 01:16:33,400
their three wins their plus 7.
So clearly in those wins, you
1300
01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:37,900
know, They turn the ball over
and that was against Western
1301
01:16:37,900 --> 01:16:45,300
Carolina.
Oh man, Duke I had Duke 23:10 in
1302
01:16:45,300 --> 01:16:49,500
pit, so they forced a lot of
turnovers in those three games.
1303
01:16:49,500 --> 01:16:53,500
So in the five losses though,
they still created Five
1304
01:16:53,500 --> 01:16:54,900
turnovers.
That's a turnover game.
1305
01:16:54,900 --> 01:16:59,400
So I dug a little deeper.
They forced to against UVA and
1306
01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:03,100
they lost by a touchdown.
They had one in a blowout loss
1307
01:17:03,100 --> 01:17:07,600
to Ole Miss and they Two against
FSU who also blew the doors off
1308
01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:11,100
of them.
And the other two losses, it was
1309
01:17:11,100 --> 01:17:15,500
an even battle.
So in three of their losses,
1310
01:17:15,600 --> 01:17:22,300
they were +5 and they got
outscored by like Almost 100,
1311
01:17:24,100 --> 01:17:26,100
they have to force turnovers to
win games.
1312
01:17:26,100 --> 01:17:27,700
That's clear.
Yeah.
1313
01:17:27,700 --> 01:17:30,100
Maybe force turnovers to be
competitive.
1314
01:17:30,100 --> 01:17:32,800
Be competitive.
It even when they force a bunch
1315
01:17:32,900 --> 01:17:36,100
UVA, it bores to turn over
against that.
1316
01:17:36,100 --> 01:17:39,300
Bad offense, came up with seven
points against not, a really
1317
01:17:39,300 --> 01:17:42,600
good defense even when they
forced a can lose.
1318
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:46,300
So I sit here Brian and I ask
you, I think we just have to be
1319
01:17:46,300 --> 01:17:50,100
aggressive because what they've
shown is even when they forced
1320
01:17:50,100 --> 01:17:53,200
turnovers I don't do a hell of a
lot with it.
1321
01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:57,400
Yeah, we definitely can't revert
into a shell, every if we make a
1322
01:17:57,400 --> 01:18:01,100
mistake, we got to keep being
aggressive, pushing the ball
1323
01:18:01,100 --> 01:18:05,000
downfield, keep them on edge
because I mean they show against
1324
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:08,600
FSU.
They had essentially a six-point
1325
01:18:08,600 --> 01:18:12,000
turn around on one play where
they forced a fumble with FSU
1326
01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:15,600
inside the, their 5-yard line
and they ran it back to like the
1327
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:18,300
22, yard line and only got three
out of it.
1328
01:18:18,300 --> 01:18:21,600
And they had another turnover
later and later in that same
1329
01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:25,300
quarter, FSU had two turnovers
early, Laying was winning the
1330
01:18:25,300 --> 01:18:27,700
whole game.
I mean, this isn't, this isn't
1331
01:18:27,700 --> 01:18:30,800
something where, you know, they
do a whole lot with those
1332
01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:34,300
turnovers.
So if if it happens, Don't
1333
01:18:34,300 --> 01:18:36,700
Panic.
Stay aggressive on offense.
1334
01:18:36,800 --> 01:18:40,600
Stay aggressive on defense.
Don't let that Sudden Change
1335
01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:45,800
become six points.
That's it, but it's also
1336
01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:49,600
difficult them to score points
and that's where I go to the
1337
01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:51,700
next key is it's going to be our
defense General.
1338
01:18:52,900 --> 01:18:56,500
This defense is This is 118th in
the country, they are not a good
1339
01:18:56,500 --> 01:18:58,800
offense, their 125th and score
there.
1340
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:04,100
Below us in scoring Which says a
lot not good Bob.
1341
01:19:04,400 --> 01:19:07,800
I mean, even in their three
wins, the offense has not been
1342
01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:11,800
good at all and their biggest
scoring output was 26 versus
1343
01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:15,000
pit.
So you talk about a defense Get
1344
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:17,300
Right game.
We look good for three quarters.
1345
01:19:17,300 --> 01:19:19,600
Last week let's bring it for
quarters.
1346
01:19:19,800 --> 01:19:23,900
Like this team like we did
against BC and keep them under
1347
01:19:23,900 --> 01:19:25,800
two touchdowns.
Yep.
1348
01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:29,700
Yeah and the big thing is
slowing that run down if we can
1349
01:19:29,700 --> 01:19:32,200
slow that run down there.
Not going to be a team that can
1350
01:19:32,200 --> 01:19:34,900
do anything offensively.
So we'll see.
1351
01:19:35,300 --> 01:19:38,200
Speaking of Run games, I think
the Hokies Run game is going to
1352
01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:41,000
be a geeky, said it in the Press
today.
1353
01:19:41,000 --> 01:19:46,600
Malachi's doubtful, which gives
me a sliver of Hope, but also
1354
01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:48,400
gives me a sliver of Hope to
that.
1355
01:19:48,500 --> 01:19:53,700
He won't play until he's ready
and good news back.
1356
01:19:53,700 --> 01:19:57,200
He Shaun King probable, so would
likely going to see him probably
1357
01:19:57,200 --> 01:20:00,700
the combination of Holsten and
Duke but Georgia.
1358
01:20:00,900 --> 01:20:03,000
Tech.
I mean I look back at the UNC
1359
01:20:03,000 --> 01:20:06,700
game and talked about them being
a bad offense.
1360
01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:11,200
As far as rushing, the ball
Georgia Tech 101 this year,
1361
01:20:11,200 --> 01:20:16,000
giving up over 177 yards a game.
So I think between the
1362
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:21,300
combination of Wells King
Holston and Duke, I want to see
1363
01:20:21,300 --> 01:20:25,600
at least 130 to 140 yards on 30
to 35 carries.
1364
01:20:25,600 --> 01:20:30,200
A fellow made me feel better but
maybe three-and-a-half is where
1365
01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:34,000
I should be happy.
Per attempt, we got to do better
1366
01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:37,100
than we did last week and I know
this is the way.
1367
01:20:37,100 --> 01:20:41,000
This is a big step down in terms
of front and in terms of
1368
01:20:41,008 --> 01:20:46,000
linebacker play overall.
And that's not knocking the two
1369
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:47,100
guys.
I mean, I think they're probably
1370
01:20:47,100 --> 01:20:51,200
two of the better players on
this defense but we were looking
1371
01:20:51,200 --> 01:20:55,300
at three NFL caliber linebackers
last week.
1372
01:20:55,300 --> 01:20:59,100
We were and some solid players
in that front.
1373
01:20:59,100 --> 01:21:02,300
You know, we rang Not getting
that this week.
1374
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:09,200
Now the this is a big step down.
We should see better this week
1375
01:21:09,200 --> 01:21:12,800
in the running game.
So if we if we can get like you
1376
01:21:12,800 --> 01:21:16,100
said, I think 135 would be a
good number 140.
1377
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:22,900
If we get above 150 great but we
can get around that 135 140
1378
01:21:22,900 --> 01:21:27,000
range at or just above three and
a half a Kerry.
1379
01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:29,100
I think that'll be effective
enough especially for being
1380
01:21:29,100 --> 01:21:30,800
aggressive and pushing the ball
downfield.
1381
01:21:30,900 --> 01:21:32,900
The passing game
abso-freakin'-lutely.
1382
01:21:35,200 --> 01:21:38,700
Let's go back and talk about
what we talked about earlier.
1383
01:21:39,900 --> 01:21:43,100
The biggest key to this game and
hopefully growing some
1384
01:21:43,100 --> 01:21:47,100
confidence with this team is
we've got a string, the multiple
1385
01:21:47,100 --> 01:21:51,300
quarters of productive football
across all elements.
1386
01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:56,100
Yep, it's what we're missing it.
I mean we can attest to it and
1387
01:21:56,100 --> 01:22:01,300
probably say, if you Street a
couple extra quarters in pit in
1388
01:22:01,300 --> 01:22:05,000
Miami and one more quarter in NC
State.
1389
01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:09,500
It's three wins versus three
losses, two teams, five and two.
1390
01:22:10,100 --> 01:22:11,400
Yep.
And and that's it.
1391
01:22:11,400 --> 01:22:14,300
Let's look at let's look at NC
State and head too bad.
1392
01:22:14,300 --> 01:22:17,700
Quarters of special teams play.
Get two and a half.
1393
01:22:17,700 --> 01:22:20,900
Bad quarters of offense and we
had one bad quarter defense.
1394
01:22:21,100 --> 01:22:24,700
Yeah.
And All Canes at separate points
1395
01:22:24,700 --> 01:22:26,300
during the game.
Yep.
1396
01:22:26,700 --> 01:22:29,000
Offense early.
When the defense was humming
1397
01:22:29,800 --> 01:22:32,700
defense and offense Lady,
Heather in the third quarter.
1398
01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:37,700
You know, you outscored team
21-7, that's big, that's what
1399
01:22:37,700 --> 01:22:39,900
you want, every quarter, and
then the Special Teams, you
1400
01:22:39,900 --> 01:22:43,700
know, I think it was first and
fourth one is good but it's just
1401
01:22:43,700 --> 01:22:47,600
stinging the string and the
quarters together because that
1402
01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:49,600
builds momentum that builds
confidence.
1403
01:22:49,600 --> 01:22:54,800
You see guys play better and I
think a team like this that
1404
01:22:54,900 --> 01:23:00,400
don't do not have the Firepower
to hit you back quick.
1405
01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:03,700
It's kind of what the Hokies
need and Brian, let's flip it.
1406
01:23:03,900 --> 01:23:06,300
Over and let's talk about
predictions on this game.
1407
01:23:06,300 --> 01:23:09,000
And unfortunately, for me and
you for a while.
1408
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:12,000
Now we've been going against the
Hokies.
1409
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:15,300
And you know what's your feels
this week?
1410
01:23:16,500 --> 01:23:19,400
Well, I'm not going against the
Hokies this weekend.
1411
01:23:20,900 --> 01:23:25,200
I've got an actual repeat of
last year's final score.
1412
01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:28,600
All right.
I think that we're going to be
1413
01:23:28,600 --> 01:23:31,800
effective driving the football.
I think we probably don't close
1414
01:23:31,800 --> 01:23:35,700
as many drives as we'd like to,
but we're effective enough
1415
01:23:35,700 --> 01:23:37,800
moving the football against this
defense.
1416
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:44,200
I think we give up a couple
scores to them but then we kind
1417
01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:48,700
of settle in and we finish this
off.
1418
01:23:49,100 --> 01:23:54,700
I've got 26.
Toki's and I'm not far behind
1419
01:23:54,700 --> 01:23:58,000
you because I do hope that we
can continue our streak of
1420
01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:01,700
picking these games correctly.
I'm going a little less than you
1421
01:24:01,700 --> 01:24:04,500
on both sides.
I think it's 2410.
1422
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:10,300
Hokies I think what we saw last
week with that defense, NC state
1423
01:24:10,300 --> 01:24:12,300
has some play makers.
We talked about that.
1424
01:24:12,300 --> 01:24:13,900
They were missing the
quarterback and I think what
1425
01:24:13,900 --> 01:24:16,900
they found last week was likely
the guys going to succeed leery
1426
01:24:16,900 --> 01:24:21,900
when he steps away.
And I really think defensively,
1427
01:24:21,900 --> 01:24:25,000
I can't see watching Georgia
Tech a few times this year.
1428
01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:28,000
They just looked pitiful
offensively and with no real
1429
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:32,200
threat of a passing game.
I think Brent pry probably can
1430
01:24:32,200 --> 01:24:33,700
feel comfortable playing some
guys.
1431
01:24:33,700 --> 01:24:37,800
He may not be as comfortable
with and I think we pull the W
1432
01:24:38,300 --> 01:24:41,800
and I think it's going to It's
going to feel nice on Saturday
1433
01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:47,900
afternoon, As we sit down and
crack a game for our big
1434
01:24:47,900 --> 01:24:50,200
screener.
We're not picking separate games
1435
01:24:50,200 --> 01:24:54,900
this week, there is only one
game in the AP, they're 12 and
1436
01:24:54,900 --> 01:24:59,100
the cfp they're 13 and that's
Georgia versus Tennessee and
1437
01:24:59,100 --> 01:25:04,400
that's obviously hidden hooker,
Georgia is 8 point favorite down
1438
01:25:04,400 --> 01:25:08,400
in Athens between the hedges,
the over-under is 66.
1439
01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:12,400
And this has been one, I've been
just thinking about sitting at
1440
01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:17,000
the baseball game, even thinking
about it umpire was a has a son
1441
01:25:17,100 --> 01:25:20,500
that Tech fan.
We're not technically a text
1442
01:25:20,500 --> 01:25:25,700
using the senior up there and I
think what I'm going to have to
1443
01:25:25,700 --> 01:25:31,400
say is I think I'm going to take
Tennessee to win the game
1444
01:25:31,400 --> 01:25:35,600
outright and I am going to go
over the 66.
1445
01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:40,500
Okay, thank what I'm kind of
feeling in this situation.
1446
01:25:40,500 --> 01:25:47,300
Is something like a 3833 game
where it's going to be a war.
1447
01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:52,500
But let me get your, let me get
your predictions first.
1448
01:25:52,500 --> 01:25:54,900
And then, let's I want to kind
of hit what we talked about
1449
01:25:54,900 --> 01:25:58,300
earlier about this game.
Okay?
1450
01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:08,500
Okay, I'm going to go 34-31, I'm
taking Tennessee to win outright
1451
01:26:09,200 --> 01:26:11,900
and then the under just barely
hits.
1452
01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:17,000
You're gonna be sweating that if
it really, is their 34 late.
1453
01:26:17,600 --> 01:26:20,900
But let's talk about what we
Talked about Brian.
1454
01:26:21,300 --> 01:26:23,600
We were discussing this game
because we talked about this
1455
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:30,200
game for 15 minutes a day.
And I said to you, If Tennessee
1456
01:26:30,200 --> 01:26:37,200
gets up two scores, early.
Do you have the confidence that
1457
01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:47,700
Georgia can fire power back?
I think they can, but it's it's
1458
01:26:47,700 --> 01:26:49,400
not, it's not a sure thing,
right?
1459
01:26:49,400 --> 01:26:53,700
Because we've seen up and down,
ability in that area.
1460
01:26:53,700 --> 01:26:55,600
Kent State.
Yeah.
1461
01:26:55,600 --> 01:27:01,600
So, you know, it's really hard
to say, you know, are there, do
1462
01:27:01,600 --> 01:27:04,300
they have that in them, you
know, when we look at the, we
1463
01:27:04,300 --> 01:27:08,000
were talking about taking out
the outliers earlier and Kent
1464
01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:10,100
State's kind of the kind of one
of the outliers.
1465
01:27:10,100 --> 01:27:15,300
Therefore, for George, And we
said Mizzou is the big outlier.
1466
01:27:15,300 --> 01:27:17,100
Yeah.
Mizzou is the other outlier
1467
01:27:17,100 --> 01:27:20,200
there because if I got Georgia,
pains, listen to this.
1468
01:27:20,200 --> 01:27:22,300
Y'all were saved by the rest at
night.
1469
01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:25,500
There were some penalties that
happen that if the flag had been
1470
01:27:25,500 --> 01:27:28,300
thrown a couple extra scores
wouldn't happen in Georgia,
1471
01:27:28,300 --> 01:27:30,000
would be a one-loss team right
now.
1472
01:27:31,100 --> 01:27:33,900
That's my opinion.
Yeah, when you're, when you're
1473
01:27:33,900 --> 01:27:36,700
right, when you're right tackle,
clearly false starts on Third
1474
01:27:36,700 --> 01:27:39,200
and goal and you get a touchdown
from it.
1475
01:27:41,100 --> 01:27:42,700
That helps out with a 4-point
game.
1476
01:27:43,500 --> 01:27:46,200
Big time.
But we mentioned it the other
1477
01:27:46,200 --> 01:27:49,300
way because I think if Georgia
gets up early, I think
1478
01:27:49,300 --> 01:27:54,800
Tennessee's got they are running
so vertical, they are so
1479
01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:56,500
attacking them filled with hypos
offense.
1480
01:27:56,500 --> 01:27:59,100
If they get down early, I think
they're just going to keep
1481
01:27:59,100 --> 01:28:02,700
swinging.
It keeps swinging it and I think
1482
01:28:02,700 --> 01:28:05,900
to a point where we've seen come
times with Kirby Smart he'll get
1483
01:28:05,900 --> 01:28:08,100
into those man's.
He wants to play man.
1484
01:28:08,100 --> 01:28:09,900
He wants to be aggressive up
front.
1485
01:28:11,700 --> 01:28:16,200
He hadn't quite bone X and quite
henin hooker and I think the
1486
01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:19,000
wide receiver core at
Tennessee's a little bit better.
1487
01:28:19,300 --> 01:28:22,900
But you know, I think it's gonna
be a hell of a game.
1488
01:28:23,000 --> 01:28:24,400
I think it's gonna be a fun to
watch.
1489
01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:27,200
Thank God, too hokey game will
be over so we can enjoy it.
1490
01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:29,200
Yeah.
Versus you've been keeping
1491
01:28:29,200 --> 01:28:31,700
looking on our other one here.
All right.
1492
01:28:31,700 --> 01:28:33,200
Yeah.
I think I think when you see
1493
01:28:33,200 --> 01:28:36,800
that, I think they're if Georgia
wants to pull it out, I feel
1494
01:28:36,800 --> 01:28:39,600
like George is going to have to
get to Hendon consistently.
1495
01:28:40,300 --> 01:28:41,900
That's going to be the only way
that they're going to pull it
1496
01:28:41,900 --> 01:28:44,900
out and if they're doing that
and they miss him there's gonna
1497
01:28:44,900 --> 01:28:49,200
be a lot of space for him to run
and we know that he can run.
1498
01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:56,200
All right, big man, has anything
broken, almost eleven twenty on.
1499
01:28:58,400 --> 01:29:03,200
Tuesday night, 90 minutes on the
dot here. 90 minutes on the dot.
1500
01:29:03,200 --> 01:29:07,900
We did, it baseball game is.
See that score real quick for
1501

01:29:13,500 --> 01:29:19,000
Got shut out seven new.
Ouch, ouch couldn't happen to a
1503
01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:22,900
better team.
Oh, and don't let Doug here that
1504
01:29:23,600 --> 01:29:27,100
don't like when you got.
We got a braised fan kind of.
1505
01:29:27,300 --> 01:29:30,000
Pulling for the Phillies, you
know, it's some foul shit.
1506
01:29:32,100 --> 01:29:34,100

We're live.
We only went, we only went about
17
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:51,400
15 minutes later than we were
hoping for which considering the
18
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:56,500
late start and all that, not
bad, not bad, not bad at all.
19
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,900
And you know we thought about
maybe moving it to Wednesday,
20
00:01:59,900 --> 00:02:04,600
but then that Give me three
extra late nights and I was
21
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,300
like, nah, screw that.
I'm let's get these days gonna
22
00:02:06,300 --> 00:02:09,699
be late regardless.
Let's just go, let's talk about
23
00:02:09,699 --> 00:02:12,500
everything college football.
Let's talk about Georgia Tech
24
00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:15,300
this week.
Let's talk about the cfp.
25
00:02:15,300 --> 00:02:19,100
In a little while here.
Let's talk about the new Big 12
26
00:02:19,100 --> 00:02:21,900
deal, but Brian, let's let's
kick it off and let's go back
27
00:02:21,900 --> 00:02:25,800
more heartbreak for the Hokies.
Let's recap NC State Hokies fall
28
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,400
2221 on Thursday night, and it's
one of those.
29
00:02:30,500 --> 00:02:32,800
Stories where it wasn't like
Miami.
30
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:37,700
It wasn't us clawing our way
back. 18-point lead in the
31
00:02:37,700 --> 00:02:40,000
later, part of the third and we
blow it man.
32
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,600
Just brutal.
I went to bed at like one
33
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:45,600
because it took a while to come
down.
34
00:02:46,300 --> 00:02:47,700
Just oh yeah.
Oh yeah.
35
00:02:48,700 --> 00:02:52,800
I think it was, it was while
they were reviewing.
36
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,300
The Grant Wells touchdown that
gave us that lead.
37
00:02:57,300 --> 00:03:01,000
I ran upstairs to get my wife,
something I was like, I'm not
38
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,200
trying to jinx this shit but
we're up 18.
39
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,600
I didn't think we'd be here.
I don't know, it's essentially
40
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:10,800
from that for I was like I don't
know what to do with my hands.
41
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:15,500
I'll do my hands.
Yay and then, you know, I come
42
00:03:15,500 --> 00:03:19,000
up later.
You know, it's after midnight
43
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,100
she's like how he had to finish
out his like it's after
44
00:03:21,100 --> 00:03:22,100
midnight.
What the fuck?
45
00:03:22,100 --> 00:03:23,600
Do you think happened?
What do you think happened?
46
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,900
It's midnight.
Well, I had a few guys in the
47
00:03:25,900 --> 00:03:28,700
neighborhood over and two of my
neighbors.
48
00:03:28,900 --> 00:03:33,500
Shout out been shout out mace
Eysan their Tech alums and the
49
00:03:33,500 --> 00:03:37,400
other two guys aren't and when
we went up 18 one of the non
50
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:42,000
Hokies said y'all got this in
the bag 18 and been looked at
51
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,500
him shadow.
Look like you haven't watched us
52
00:03:44,500 --> 00:03:46,400
play this year has first time
huh?
53
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:52,500
And thus began the roll down and
what and I just this year and I
54
00:03:52,508 --> 00:03:56,900
mean we've seen this movie play
out for a while for the Hokies
55
00:03:56,900 --> 00:04:01,000
so mean as soon as as soon as
that first touchdown, Afternoon
56
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:06,100
with the ease that it happened.
I was like oh okay for a long
57
00:04:06,100 --> 00:04:09,500
fourth quarter we are and we
were win or lose is it's going
58
00:04:09,500 --> 00:04:11,400
to be way more interesting than
it.
59
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,500
Should be a lot more
interesting.
60
00:04:13,900 --> 00:04:17,500
And and let's let's talk about
this, let's talk about the
61
00:04:17,507 --> 00:04:21,000
defense because I want to give
the defense I want to give them
62
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:28,200
their Kudos first Oh, coach
Compton, coach Compton.
63
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:29,700
All right.
Robbie.
64
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,200
So let's talk about the defense.
So for the better part of three
65
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,600
quarters, they absolutely got
the job done.
66
00:04:35,700 --> 00:04:39,500
They held in Sea, State, 23,
points aggressive, play called
67
00:04:39,500 --> 00:04:41,200
and against NC State, they were
attacking.
68
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,800
It seemed like all night.
We didn't fewer missed tackles
69
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:47,900
in the first three quarters than
we've seen.
70
00:04:49,100 --> 00:04:50,600
Probably the last few weeks, at
least.
71
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:51,200
Yeah.
Yeah.
72
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,500
For the last few weeks
definitely.
73
00:04:52,500 --> 00:04:54,300
And it seems like they were It's
loose.
74
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,600
Yeah, right playing lose.
They weren't looking at the
75
00:04:58,608 --> 00:05:00,500
scoreboard.
They were just kind of attacking
76
00:05:00,500 --> 00:05:05,300
and following the game plan and
playing playing like they
77
00:05:05,300 --> 00:05:10,200
belonged.
Yeah I like it along and and we
78
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:14,500
know Devin O'Leary wasn't there,
we know we know it was Chambers
79
00:05:14,500 --> 00:05:18,400
in the first and then the Rook
or Morris The Freshman who you
80
00:05:18,407 --> 00:05:22,600
know, who was a four-star.
It's not like he was the, you
81
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:27,000
know, the A two-star.
He was a forced out of Georgia.
82
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,600
He wasn't just holding down that
third spotty.
83
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,000
Yeah.
Solid player that probably just
84
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,700
maybe wasn't ready for prime
time yet but you know and they
85
00:05:35,700 --> 00:05:40,300
pushed him showed up anyway, he
did show up anyway in but again
86
00:05:40,300 --> 00:05:43,500
the defense those first three
quarters even with Mason in
87
00:05:43,500 --> 00:05:47,700
their it they couldn't get
anything established and it felt
88
00:05:47,700 --> 00:05:50,000
good.
But Brian you made that point as
89
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,200
it got to the end of the third
and then the and then the Fourth
90
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,100
of July Fell off my teen
roughly.
91
00:05:55,100 --> 00:05:58,800
They had 19 points in eight
minutes. 19 points in eight
92
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,000
minutes and I know you got to
see some of the tape.
93
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,700
What do you felt like was the
swing?
94
00:06:03,700 --> 00:06:08,300
Why do we quit attacking?
I feel like it's a combination
95
00:06:08,300 --> 00:06:11,100
of things.
You got to lead, you end up
96
00:06:11,300 --> 00:06:14,600
being a little more conservative
trying to conserve you know the
97
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,900
depth that we have because we
have we still have debt problems
98
00:06:16,900 --> 00:06:19,700
on defense and in this game we
especially Adept problems at
99
00:06:19,700 --> 00:06:23,900
corner.
You know we only had really for
100
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,000
cornerbacks available that are
on scholarship so that kind of
101
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,300
put us behind the eight ball.
With how we were deploying our
102
00:06:32,300 --> 00:06:37,700
cornerbacks and, as they started
taking some more shots, you
103
00:06:37,700 --> 00:06:40,800
know, that became problematic,
it was like kind of your damned
104
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,400
if you do.
Damned if you don't, if you if
105
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,100
you Blitz and you don't get
there, you got tired,
106
00:06:45,100 --> 00:06:48,100
cornerbacks on Islands.
If you play more conservative
107
00:06:48,100 --> 00:06:50,500
you, let them kind of take
chunks down the field, a little
108
00:06:50,500 --> 00:06:57,000
bit at a time and we kind of got
in a situation where we the
109
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,100
snowball started and we couldn't
stop it.
110
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,700
Yeah.
And and It sort of stinks
111
00:07:04,700 --> 00:07:07,300
because I think the reason
probably went to Zone you
112
00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:09,300
mentioned it.
We heard coach promising.
113
00:07:09,300 --> 00:07:11,000
And today in the pressure was
the depth.
114
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,900
Imani Chapman and Masson,
Delaney plate.
115
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,100
Every snap and we were over 76.
Brian me.
116
00:07:18,300 --> 00:07:20,600
Brian.
Made the point Friday when we
117
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:24,000
were Chad and he's like, do you
see the difference in the place?
118
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,000
I'm like, and I looked at the
wrong stats.
119
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,000
I'm like, they're pretty close
friend.
120
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,300
He's like look.
Again look again.
121
00:07:29,700 --> 00:07:32,900
They ran 76, we're in 54 and
man.
122
00:07:33,100 --> 00:07:35,900
In Maine, sort of Lane and
Armani were out there every
123
00:07:35,900 --> 00:07:38,400
snap.
Which when you're, when you're
124
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,300
down to four, we saw DJ Harvey
play.
125
00:07:40,300 --> 00:07:42,900
A lot of nickel, we did not see
much pre on Marie.
126
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,500
So really it was only three
guys.
127
00:07:44,500 --> 00:07:48,900
Getting the majority of those
snaps you and him and cams out
128
00:07:48,900 --> 00:07:52,700
cam cam Johnson of us, both of
them were late scraps.
129
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,900
Also down strong was obviously
already outfit.
130
00:07:56,900 --> 00:08:00,300
So you had three three guys,
that could have helped you a
131
00:08:00,308 --> 00:08:02,600
little bit depth wise that
weren't a bongo.
132
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,800
Going into that game, it was
absolutely gone.
133
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,100
And then it was coach said it
today.
134
00:08:09,100 --> 00:08:12,000
In the pressure on anybody,
listen about learning how to win
135
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,800
games and he says, it's
something we have to do as a
136
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:18,800
team and you know what?
Before this season started we
137
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:22,500
were roughly, I think it was one
game under 500 with the class of
138
00:08:22,500 --> 00:08:26,400
18.
That's that's basically a coin.
139
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,700
Flip, whether you win or not and
Brian.
140
00:08:29,700 --> 00:08:33,299
How did you say it on Friday
about that?
141
00:08:33,299 --> 00:08:37,500
Big play down the field.
I basically say this, like once
142
00:08:37,500 --> 00:08:40,799
they got that one big play down
the field and then they got In
143
00:08:40,799 --> 00:08:43,799
The End Zone.
It was like we remembered that
144
00:08:43,799 --> 00:08:46,600
we weren't as good as we had
been playing for three quarters
145
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:52,500
and that's that mentality that
we keep hearing about learning
146
00:08:52,500 --> 00:08:55,400
how to win, learning how to To
finish.
147
00:08:55,700 --> 00:09:00,200
Did you play collegiate ball?
You play collegiate ball and
148
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,800
your teams were good.
Your own teams that competed in
149
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,400
the O dat.
You know trying to win that
150
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,400
conference.
It is something.
151
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,800
Some people say it's fictitious.
I don't believe that I believe
152
00:09:12,500 --> 00:09:14,400
every single sport you ever
play.
153
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:18,300
You have to learn how to win and
we just that is something we
154
00:09:18,300 --> 00:09:23,100
don't have right now and it
showed, maybe maybe that maybe
155
00:09:23,100 --> 00:09:24,700
the silver.
In is.
156
00:09:25,900 --> 00:09:29,700
The last three weeks, it showed
a little bit more, and a little
157
00:09:29,700 --> 00:09:31,300
bit more, that they were getting
closer.
158
00:09:31,900 --> 00:09:34,500
It went from losing them, by two
scores at Pitt.
159
00:09:34,500 --> 00:09:37,300
The one sport Miami to
one-pointed NC State.
160
00:09:37,700 --> 00:09:41,600
Yeah, and it's when you talk
about winning, it's, it's the
161
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:48,900
little things. when you look at
the plays that kind of build
162
00:09:48,900 --> 00:09:55,000
towards your win their points in
the game, Where you going to
163
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,200
point to and say?
Okay, well you make you make a
164
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,100
little play here.
You make a little play there.
165
00:09:59,100 --> 00:10:02,500
It's a different outcome, but
you see winning teams that they
166
00:10:02,500 --> 00:10:05,200
play with the different type of
confidence in a different type
167
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:10,400
of swagger than teams.
Like the Hokies right now where
168
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,600
when one bad thing happens, you
start to see that Snowball
169
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,300
Effect.
You start to see doubt creeping
170
00:10:15,300 --> 00:10:20,600
in, you start to press a little
bit and make mistakes that you
171
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,600
wouldn't normally make and
that's what we're seeing.
172
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,600
A lot from this.
Team is that they kind of get a
173
00:10:26,608 --> 00:10:31,000
little bit over their skis and
all of a sudden snowball comes
174
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,700
another, yeah, it's a snowball
of thing.
175
00:10:33,100 --> 00:10:34,700
That's a thing.
You talk about getting over
176
00:10:34,700 --> 00:10:38,300
their skis, they lose the
technique.
177
00:10:38,300 --> 00:10:41,200
They start playing outside
themselves not within
178
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:45,500
themselves, not within the
scheme and that's learned and,
179
00:10:45,500 --> 00:10:48,500
you know, we see mistakes and
stuff this year, and I'm not
180
00:10:48,500 --> 00:10:51,600
calling for anybody's job this
year because I've seen enough
181
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,000
from each member of the coaching
staff that And when they get the
182
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,700
right players, when that
mentality, where we talked about
183
00:10:57,700 --> 00:11:01,400
it last week, I talked about it
with the more brothers who had
184
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,600
the least amount of time under
the old coaching staff, and they
185
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:08,100
have looked like two of the best
offensive linemen we have and
186
00:11:08,100 --> 00:11:11,800
that takes time.
And obviously probably, What
187
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,000
Hurts the Most is?
We pumped with six minutes left
188
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,200
and we never get the ball back.
Yeah.
189
00:11:17,500 --> 00:11:19,500
Once I was that was the big
thing with the defense.
190
00:11:19,500 --> 00:11:22,600
We just need a one stop.
We got him to third down twice,
191
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:26,500
couldn't get off the field.
Couldn't finish couldn't finish
192
00:11:26,500 --> 00:11:29,200
it.
Now, let's talk about the
193
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,100
offense because Jesus Christ,
let's talk jekyll-hyde with this
194
00:11:32,100 --> 00:11:34,600
offense.
That first half.
195
00:11:35,100 --> 00:11:37,800
They knew everything we were
doing, they took away the Run
196
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,500
game, they took away the short
passes.
197
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,100
Yep.
They dared us to beat them down
198
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,600
field and from what I can
remember in what you think, we
199
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,300
really didn't try that in the
first half.
200
00:11:50,700 --> 00:11:53,700
We didn't we didn't try it
enough or with with enough.
201
00:11:54,700 --> 00:11:57,800
Variation.
When we took the shots, it was
202
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,000
kind of a little bit more
calculated.
203
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:05,300
We weren't doing it off of off
of first down where maybe the
204
00:12:05,300 --> 00:12:08,400
defense wasn't expecting and as
much we were doing in very
205
00:12:09,100 --> 00:12:11,900
telegraphed ways, you know,
definitely third down.
206
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:15,800
You know, we were trying to take
some shots here and there when
207
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:17,800
we had third down and long
situations, but we weren't
208
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:22,300
trying to catch them off guard
or get that first first down big
209
00:12:22,300 --> 00:12:24,100
play that can kind of set your
offense in.
210
00:12:24,300 --> 00:12:28,700
Ocean drum.
We were very predictable and it
211
00:12:28,700 --> 00:12:30,800
showed the way they reacted.
I mean, I know that's a good
212
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:35,000
defense but we should have the
first half should not have been
213
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,400
as bad as it was if we could
have done some things
214
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:41,100
differently that took them off
edge a little bit.
215
00:12:42,100 --> 00:12:46,900
Absolutely, it's the truth.
And but but then Brian, you
216
00:12:46,900 --> 00:12:51,000
know, we talked about that.
And then we see in this is the
217
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,100
see, these little things.
We see, we see an absolute
218
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:58,800
Salute 180 in the adjustment and
when we come out in that third
219
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:05,000
quarter, we get the ball six
plays 78 yards under two minutes
220
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:10,100
and scored touchdown.
I mean it was like that's that
221
00:13:10,100 --> 00:13:14,400
opening, third quarter Drive.
I said it was the best opening
222
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:15,800
drive.
We've had to the season.
223
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,100
It's probably the best offensive
Drive.
224
00:13:18,100 --> 00:13:23,100
We've had all year very terms of
execution in terms of keeping
225
00:13:23,100 --> 00:13:24,800
the defense off.
Silence.
226
00:13:25,500 --> 00:13:27,300
It was the best drive on
offense.
227
00:13:27,300 --> 00:13:29,700
We've had all year.
Yeah and if you take a look at
228
00:13:29,700 --> 00:13:32,400
it, it was Wells running the
ball and then he hits Daquan and
229
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,200
then they Quan again, then
Malachi with a good six yard
230
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,400
run.
And then the next thing, you
231
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:43,200
know, it is, it's a penalty.
We get down field and then we're
232
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,600
inside the goal line, Grant runs
it in.
233
00:13:46,900 --> 00:13:51,400
And it was like, it was nothing
was huge.
234
00:13:52,100 --> 00:13:57,100
It was what?
15, 15 78 penalty.
235
00:13:57,100 --> 00:14:01,000
Get you 15 more and then you're
in the it wasn't.
236
00:14:01,100 --> 00:14:08,300
You know it wasn't like the next
drive that we got I mean it's if
237
00:14:08,300 --> 00:14:12,300
we got those, like intermediate
chunk plays that we haven't been
238
00:14:12,500 --> 00:14:18,500
consistent enough in this
offense, we need a lot more of
239
00:14:18,500 --> 00:14:23,100
those type of routes.
Those type of schemes to in the
240
00:14:23,100 --> 00:14:25,600
passing game.
And we need that more
241
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,700
consistently because that seems
to be our bread and butter.
242
00:14:28,700 --> 00:14:33,000
Whether it's Daquan whether it's
working, Caleb Smith in there as
243
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:37,200
well.
We need more of that.
244
00:14:37,500 --> 00:14:42,200
We've been relying too much on
kind of the short game and
245
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,800
hoping that we can, you know,
break a tackle or matriculate
246
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,900
the ball down the field, 68
yards at a time.
247
00:14:49,500 --> 00:14:51,700
I mean, eventually we need to
start getting those 15 to 20
248
00:14:51,700 --> 00:14:54,400
yard chunk plays consistently.
I'm not saying we got to do what
249
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:59,300
we did on the next drive, all
the time, but let's start moving
250
00:14:59,300 --> 00:15:01,400
the ball down.
Feel a little bit with a little
251
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,200
bit more confidence in that
intermediate game.
252
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,700
And then the next Drive, I mean,
home run.
253
00:15:09,900 --> 00:15:13,800
The those intermediate routes
opened up, that safety didn't
254
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,300
Shada Caleb side, and it was a
perfect.
255
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,400
I mean, that was a beautiful,
beautiful deep pass because
256
00:15:20,700 --> 00:15:23,800
brand dropped it in the bucket.
Caleb didn't break stride.
257
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:30,200
80-yard touchdown.
One play, One play, One, play 11
258
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,300
seconds.
Yeah.
259
00:15:33,900 --> 00:15:37,100
That's what he.
And that's how you you take the
260
00:15:37,100 --> 00:15:38,800
momentum from the other team
right there.
261
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,900
I mean absolute, the one score,
obviously, that changes the
262
00:15:41,900 --> 00:15:44,000
game.
You get that second one.
263
00:15:44,500 --> 00:15:47,600
Now, you got to tell you on the,
on their back of their heels, a
264
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:52,400
little bit and you get it in one
play there.
265
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:59,500
So that really kind of was the
first huge play that we've had
266
00:15:59,500 --> 00:16:02,100
since really Boston College in
terms.
267
00:16:02,300 --> 00:16:07,600
Like really big chunk play going
for a touchdown?
268
00:16:08,300 --> 00:16:09,500
Yep.
Absolutely.
269
00:16:09,900 --> 00:16:12,200
And then now, the next travel is
a punt by me.
270
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:16,600
And you talked about today, how
it's okay to punch sometimes,
271
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,100
but how much positive yardage
did you get what?
272
00:16:19,100 --> 00:16:23,600
We got 23 positive yards.
So you know, they had a punt to
273
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:27,800
us.
We got the ball roughly at, let
274
00:16:27,808 --> 00:16:30,800
me do the math here, roughly it
like the 25-yard line.
275
00:16:30,900 --> 00:16:32,400
We went 23.
Words?
276
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:33,100
Right?
At Midfield.
277
00:16:33,100 --> 00:16:35,000
We punted they got the ball at
their 20.
278
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,000
Did they had a punt back?
And then it was that laughs
279
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,000
really.
Again it was another solid
280
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:44,600
drive, five plays 65 yards
again, Grant running.
281
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,100
Don't worry, we're going to talk
about some of the bad stuff,
282
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,600
folks.
It's we've got, we're gonna lay
283
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:54,300
into a stew, but it was like
three minutes, Bam, Bam, Bam.
284
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,600
Grant Wells 20 yard.
Run touchdown.
285
00:16:59,500 --> 00:17:02,700
And it's and that's where you're
pulling your hair out because in
286
00:17:02,700 --> 00:17:05,000
less than eight minutes we score
21 points.
287
00:17:05,900 --> 00:17:08,400
Yeah in eight minutes we scored
21 points.
288
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,000
That's of the game clock.
Actual clock.
289
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:17,300
Like six minutes if Brian if we
can score 6 21 points in six
290
00:17:17,300 --> 00:17:20,300
minutes every game at least
once.
291
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:21,900
Yep.
What can I tell you?
292
00:17:21,900 --> 00:17:24,700
One thing here though is, yeah
that this this tells you the
293
00:17:24,700 --> 00:17:32,800
importance of getting First, a
first, down on your to start a
294
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:38,000
drive because we went Tempo on
most of these drives in the
295
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,400
third quarter.
And we really go Tempo because
296
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:45,000
we're able to get a first down
pretty quickly in the drive-by
297
00:17:45,700 --> 00:17:48,400
the second plate.
Yeah the second plane those two
298
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:52,900
drives and get up on the ball
and keep them on their heels.
299
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:57,000
It was less less.
Check with me as we were.
300
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,600
Going through there.
So they were running quickly.
301
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:04,200
They were sticking with the,
with the original call and they
302
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:09,100
played with as much confidence.
As I've seen them play all year
303
00:18:09,100 --> 00:18:13,200
on offense.
Yeah, and we saw some more
304
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,300
different things on, you know,
Thursday night.
305
00:18:16,300 --> 00:18:20,100
I mean I think one of the big
one was just seeing Grant uses
306
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,000
athleticism.
You know, he has some, he can
307
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,700
run the ball a little bit and
there were a couple times where
308
00:18:26,700 --> 00:18:30,100
he Handed off, if he had pulled,
he would have had a lot of
309
00:18:30,100 --> 00:18:33,600
daylight a lot of daylight
because a couple times those
310
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,200
ends and those outside backers
just crashed.
311
00:18:36,300 --> 00:18:40,300
If he pulls it's a lane and
there's no one on that side of
312
00:18:40,300 --> 00:18:42,300
the field.
So I think that's got to be
313
00:18:42,300 --> 00:18:45,300
continued to put in.
What else did you see?
314
00:18:46,700 --> 00:18:49,700
For a little new wrinkles.
Yeah.
315
00:18:49,700 --> 00:18:51,900
I mean that more unbalanced
lines.
316
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,700
We saw that that might be
something that we could catch
317
00:18:54,700 --> 00:18:59,200
them in when we were talking in
the preview episode there, and
318
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,600
they went that way.
So it's good to see that they,
319
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:03,600
you know, watch the Syracuse
tape.
320
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:09,200
Like I did Grant was more
involved in the running game.
321
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:10,800
So that was, that was good as
well.
322
00:19:11,300 --> 00:19:16,100
He's been more involved.
Week-to-week lately, various
323
00:19:16,100 --> 00:19:18,500
degrees of Effectiveness,
obviously, when they've got the
324
00:19:18,500 --> 00:19:22,800
loaded, Ox lot less room for him
to operate.
325
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,500
We saw that kind in the first
half but as we were more
326
00:19:25,500 --> 00:19:28,600
effective with other aspects of
the offense, some of those
327
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:32,800
rushing Lanes, opened up for him
in the second half there and
328
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,000
obviously, we've already talked
about it the second half shots,
329
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,200
downfield, we need more of that
more consistently, you know,
330
00:19:39,500 --> 00:19:42,300
Grant throws a good deep ball
especially when he's got time.
331
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,400
He's connected on it on quite a
few here.
332
00:19:46,300 --> 00:19:48,800
He's, he sells a couple here
there.
333
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,900
But when he's got time, when
he's able to throw one on one,
334
00:19:52,700 --> 00:19:54,400
it's easy throws a pretty good
one.
335
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:59,800
So we need more of that.
I mean, do you is that something
336
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,700
you want to see early though is
that something that you feel if
337
00:20:02,700 --> 00:20:04,600
we take a shot early and hit
one?
338
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,200
The safeties won't creep up.
Linebackers won't be sticking
339
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,400
their nose in the gaps.
It's like we get burned deep a
340
00:20:11,408 --> 00:20:15,200
couple times.
You know, you've got to change
341
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,900
your philosophy up and it did
kind of change their philosophy
342
00:20:17,900 --> 00:20:20,700
up.
But we couldn't get anything
343
00:20:20,700 --> 00:20:22,300
done.
The rest of the game we were we
344
00:20:22,300 --> 00:20:25,800
were struggling because
essentially we played our, we
345
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:30,000
played our hand, we played our
trunk cards and they knew what
346
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,300
we were going to do so they were
able to adjust.
347
00:20:32,300 --> 00:20:34,300
So somebody could say, did you
do it on?
348
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:36,700
Could you did you what did we do
it too early?
349
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,000
I don't think that's, I don't
think we did it too early.
350
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:45,200
I would say, we need to be able
to be good on first and second
351
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:51,200
down, Even when we're not
calling shots downfield.
352
00:20:51,700 --> 00:20:56,300
Because our problem right now is
been we're very ineffective
353
00:20:56,300 --> 00:21:00,900
rushing on first down.
So that puts us in a bad second
354
00:21:00,900 --> 00:21:02,800
down call that doesn't always
work.
355
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,300
And now we're in third and
medium third and long situations
356
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,900
where you know we've struggled
off and on and we struggled on
357
00:21:10,900 --> 00:21:13,000
third down mightily in this
game.
358
00:21:13,100 --> 00:21:16,200
Oh my god.
Did we not even joke?
359
00:21:16,300 --> 00:21:22,700
How how bad 9% Yeah, we
converted 9%.
360
00:21:22,700 --> 00:21:29,700
We converted 1/3 down compared
to them almost converting. 45%
361
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,900
that magic 40 number.
Brian, like continues to float
362
00:21:33,900 --> 00:21:36,200
it out there.
If we keep them 40 or under,
363
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,100
we're going to win games, we're
going to win games.
364
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,200
And if that's and that's a
simple as getting off the field
365
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:46,400
one or two more times on third
down, and we came close to or
366
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,900
three times in that game to get
off the field but in and it
367
00:21:49,908 --> 00:21:51,900
closed.
Better clothes doesn't matter.
368
00:21:51,900 --> 00:21:55,500
You got it, done.
Close doesn't matter at all and,
369
00:21:56,300 --> 00:22:01,000
you know, didn't rush the ball.
Good again, you know, just one
370
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,200
point nine per carry, you know,
after adjustments off, 26 rushes
371
00:22:06,100 --> 00:22:13,000
and what a lot of blew up in the
subsequent evening, we should
372
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,500
just say, late-night hours.
And the next day was what's on
373
00:22:17,500 --> 00:22:19,200
the coaches, what's on the
players?
374
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,000
And, you know, Let's talk about
some of that, we're going to
375
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,800
talk about first, the game
Management on the coaches and
376
00:22:25,900 --> 00:22:27,800
the first big one.
And again, I'm going to shout
377
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,600
them out Mason, he sits over
there on the two-point
378
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,700
conversion says, why the heck
are we calling a timeout?
379
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,700
They're going to go for two
here, to get it down to three
380
00:22:37,700 --> 00:22:39,800
points.
Why do we have a called a
381
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,700
timeout that?
Obviously using that heard in
382
00:22:43,700 --> 00:22:46,500
the six minute drill we had one
time out to burn at that point
383
00:22:46,500 --> 00:22:49,700
time if you have to maybe you do
get stopped or maybe they didn't
384
00:22:49,700 --> 00:22:52,100
feel the Rings and they Kick a
field goal with a minute left,
385
00:22:52,100 --> 00:22:54,800
and you still have time to
operate now.
386
00:22:55,300 --> 00:22:59,400
Pride did mention today that the
had the wrong Personnel on the
387
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,000
field.
And at that point in time, those
388
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,600
two points were two important at
that point.
389
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,400
And I like he said, at that
point in time because at that
390
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:12,200
point in time, it was, if they
don't get the two points like
391
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:16,100
they didn't, it was still a two
possession game or essentially
392
00:23:16,100 --> 00:23:19,100
it was they could not tell the
vehicle, they had to score a
393
00:23:19,108 --> 00:23:22,000
touchdown.
But on the other hand, this is
394
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,100
something where it's like, that
learning experience for the
395
00:23:24,108 --> 00:23:27,400
first time, head coach.
Did you got your players out
396
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,700
there?
This is becoming a tight game.
397
00:23:29,700 --> 00:23:32,900
Timeouts are important, right?
Yeah, yeah.
398
00:23:32,900 --> 00:23:36,000
And and that's after you
probably you burned one that you
399
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,100
needed to earlier.
But then that meant that you
400
00:23:39,100 --> 00:23:43,600
couldn't afford to burn, another
one ahead of the final drive is
401
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:47,200
things.
Got tighter timeouts, are at a
402
00:23:47,208 --> 00:23:50,300
premium, it's one of those
things I know.
403
00:23:50,500 --> 00:23:54,400
Like, you know, hindsight's
20/20 is like, oh yeah, we
404
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,800
should have conserved that one.
Yeah and I think I think we
405
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:05,500
should have Sometimes you I
think that's where being a
406
00:24:05,500 --> 00:24:08,000
coordinator versus being a head
coach.
407
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,900
Kind of comes into play.
I think that that's a timeout
408
00:24:10,900 --> 00:24:14,100
that a coordinator wanted to
take that a head coach might
409
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,200
kind of say now we're just going
to let this one roll.
410
00:24:17,300 --> 00:24:22,000
We're going to we're still going
to have the lead regardless what
411
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,600
they do?
Yeah we're going to have the
412
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:27,700
lead if I have this in my back
pocket.
413
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,400
If we're driving the field and
it is a one-point game and we
414
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,100
need a field goal.
We have two times or we can
415
00:24:35,100 --> 00:24:39,800
really attack the middle of the
field and just burn the time out
416
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:41,500
and get set up for the next
play.
417
00:24:42,100 --> 00:24:44,100
And then I'll give you a chance
to potentially get off the
418
00:24:44,100 --> 00:24:46,900
field, late in the game and have
a chance to work in the field
419
00:24:46,900 --> 00:24:49,900
goal range.
You know, whether the, you know,
420
00:24:49,900 --> 00:24:53,500
it's a You know one or two point
game at that point, it doesn't
421
00:24:53,500 --> 00:24:57,400
really matter.
Exactly now let me ask this and
422
00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:01,800
you said this was big on your
game management pieces you said
423
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:05,200
Brent Pride trusted his defense
to win the battles when we had
424
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:09,000
the lead instead of staying
aggressive, is that going back
425
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:13,400
to him being a coordinator again
versus being a head coach?
426
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,000
Where if he's the head coach and
Chris Mars, the DC and Chris
427
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,700
lays back that one play.
He's taking his hat off and
428
00:25:19,700 --> 00:25:21,900
saying Jack.
Attack.
429
00:25:21,900 --> 00:25:23,700
I don't care about this sitting
attack.
430
00:25:23,700 --> 00:25:25,800
I don't care if you have to put
gas who are in experiencing
431
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:31,400
attack and we know at the end of
the season, he will no longer be
432
00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:33,300
the defensive coordinator and
calling the plays.
433
00:25:33,300 --> 00:25:36,400
But again, is that the
coordinator hat finding its way.
434
00:25:36,900 --> 00:25:39,100
I think it's some of that I
think it's you know we talked
435
00:25:39,100 --> 00:25:40,900
about it earlier with wanting to
keep guys.
436
00:25:40,900 --> 00:25:43,200
Fresh.
I think they he was attempting
437
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:49,400
to kind of stem the the tide as
it were with.
438
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:55,500
We're probably are thinnest at
the defensive wine and in the in
439
00:25:55,500 --> 00:25:59,000
the secondary especially at
corner in this game and you know
440
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,300
you take your foot off the gas a
little bit.
441
00:26:01,300 --> 00:26:04,100
They're trying to kind of keep
your guys fresh but now you've
442
00:26:04,100 --> 00:26:06,900
given them confidence and I
think all they need it was like
443
00:26:06,900 --> 00:26:10,300
a little spark of confidence and
and that kind of woke them up a
444
00:26:10,308 --> 00:26:13,400
little bit and it also reminded
our guys.
445
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:18,000
Hey you're the team rolling in
here with losing record while we
446
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:22,900
were still ranked in the top 25.
And it kind of showed from there
447
00:26:22,900 --> 00:26:26,400
on out, even when Pride got more
aggressive, as we kind of, went
448
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:31,500
down the stretch there, I just
think, you know, that little
449
00:26:31,500 --> 00:26:35,900
moment almost was like a switch
for both teams anybody that says
450
00:26:35,900 --> 00:26:39,500
momentum is in the thing,
doesn't watch college football,
451
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,400
don't watch sports and watch
what, what?
452
00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:47,200
Well, I don't have it on back
here, but I just look, Houston
453
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,900
had all the momentum after the
weekend, right?
454
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,800
That game got canceled.
I sold last night because it
455
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:56,100
rained in Philly, all night,
Lily came out today and they're
456
00:26:56,100 --> 00:26:59,400
blowing the doors off of a 7,
nothing so far, I wish I had it
457
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,800
on back here so I could halfway
watch the game in Philly.
458
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,300
Lot was able to line up there.
They're pitching, they got
459
00:27:04,300 --> 00:27:08,300
better long-term for the rest of
the the series to momentum.
460
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,500
All right, let's talk about
quickly the offensive side of
461
00:27:11,500 --> 00:27:15,500
the ball.
All right, how tough is it?
462
00:27:15,500 --> 00:27:17,500
You mentioned to me.
It's like he was too late
463
00:27:17,500 --> 00:27:19,500
adjusting to the Box.
How tough is it for?
464
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,100
Obviously, this is the first
time.
465
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,200
Ordinator to make that
adjustment in the Box down to
466
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:26,300
the field.
Is it too?
467
00:27:26,300 --> 00:27:29,000
Big of an adjustment?
Or is it something where a more
468
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:31,600
seasoned guy would just say,
we've got to change it, I don't
469
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,000
care.
I would rather die by taking the
470
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,600
risk.
That I know if we make this
471
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,800
change, we maybe can make a
touchdown or we can move the
472
00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:44,500
ball.
I still feel like we're not
473
00:27:46,100 --> 00:27:50,300
because we're not doing some of
the the things that he wants us
474
00:27:50,300 --> 00:27:52,600
to do.
Well we're not opening up the
475
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:58,900
Playbook and for throwing in
enough new elements to the
476
00:27:58,900 --> 00:28:05,700
offense week to week.
And when you have a loaded box
477
00:28:05,700 --> 00:28:08,000
like that, and you're trying to
your bread butter, trying to be
478
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,100
all right, we're going to run
it.
479
00:28:09,100 --> 00:28:12,300
We're going to have play action,
and I know if you want to have
480
00:28:12,300 --> 00:28:14,800
play action, that, that you want
that to be your bread and butter
481
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:18,000
in the passing game.
It's hard for that to actually
482
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,900
have as much juice if you don't
have some sort of semblance of a
483
00:28:21,908 --> 00:28:24,300
running game.
But at some point you got to
484
00:28:24,300 --> 00:28:27,200
recognize what the strengths and
weaknesses of the offense are
485
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,800
and start playing towards those.
And I think we're too late
486
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,600
doing.
At, in a lot of games.
487
00:28:35,100 --> 00:28:39,100
And that that's what we saw at
this game and by the time, you
488
00:28:39,100 --> 00:28:44,600
know, we played our pivot card.
They adjusted, they were able to
489
00:28:44,608 --> 00:28:47,000
fight their way back.
Our defense of got gassed and
490
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:52,200
they scraped one out there.
And he never, he's never really
491
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:57,100
gotten the offense settled after
the Thomas injury in this game.
492
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,400
Because if that felt like
another switch the offense, we
493
00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:03,100
were kind of cooking a little
bit.
494
00:29:04,300 --> 00:29:09,500
And then when Thomas went down
and weekend, whatever we did,
495
00:29:09,500 --> 00:29:10,700
look like a different team out
there.
496
00:29:10,700 --> 00:29:14,100
I know Thomas wasn't exactly
tearing it up running the ball,
497
00:29:14,500 --> 00:29:17,000
but he had a, get a couple good
grabs of the running game,
498
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,200
especially that one down.
The sideline were amazing.
499
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,000
Grab them aside, Allison.
Amazing catch.
500
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:26,600
So he's, he gives the offense a
little bit of a spark that,
501
00:29:27,100 --> 00:29:30,000
especially in this game.
Didn't have Keshawn King and
502
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,700
yeah, Holston coming on in the
game after that, you could
503
00:29:33,700 --> 00:29:36,900
really see how that impact of
the offense.
504
00:29:36,900 --> 00:29:40,200
It just looked like they kind of
became a shell of what they
505
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,400
showed in the third quarter.
Well, it's that whole piece of
506
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,000
We aren't as good as what we
are.
507
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,700
What we've been playing, we that
that eight minutes and then
508
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,000
Malachi gets hurt and it's the
snap back to reality moment of
509
00:29:53,100 --> 00:29:54,900
we're not as good as what we
just did.
510
00:29:54,900 --> 00:29:58,800
Those big plays those solid runs
those try, Drives.
511
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,100
We're not that into me.
That to me that is somewhat on
512
00:30:02,100 --> 00:30:03,300
coaching.
I know, it's some player
513
00:30:03,300 --> 00:30:05,200
mentality, but it's also
coaches.
514
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:08,000
Continue to chirp in your ear
now.
515
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,300
What's, but, it's Bowens
responsibility to get some plays
516
00:30:12,300 --> 00:30:14,200
in there that.
Keep your guys confident.
517
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,400
That's true.
That's on him now.
518
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,300
Brian you got into a pretty
much.
519
00:30:19,300 --> 00:30:23,500
Well, no Prime just made a
defiant statement that now,
520
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,400
false starts because there are
some things that were on the
521
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,700
players.
Saturday or excuse me, Thursday
522
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:37,300
twelve nine of ten false start
penalties, 6 on the line to on
523
00:30:37,300 --> 00:30:41,400
skill positions, to on special
teams Brian.
524
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,800
Someone came out and said this
is all bad coaching.
525
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,200
And Brian, Sigler went, you went
Lee Corso.
526
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:56,500
Not so fast.
So I'll preface about this.
527
00:30:56,500 --> 00:30:58,500
There are things that can be
done.
528
00:30:59,700 --> 00:31:03,700
That will encourage an offensive
line to try to be more cognizant
529
00:31:03,700 --> 00:31:08,600
about false starts.
But a offensive lineman is not
530
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,600
jumping off sides because of
something.
531
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:17,800
A coach does or does not do
Point Blank, I played the
532
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:23,300
position, I know this and the
reason is and so the things that
533
00:31:23,300 --> 00:31:25,600
the things that thing that you
can do as a coach is that
534
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:29,700
obviously one of the things they
are doing which is extra
535
00:31:30,500 --> 00:31:35,700
conditioning punishment.
Things like that as a response
536
00:31:35,700 --> 00:31:39,000
to the offsides that occur in a
game.
537
00:31:39,100 --> 00:31:40,600
Wait a second, another
offensive.
538
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:46,600
Lineman speaks up.
So, so the thing, the things you
539
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,800
can do is, you know, obviously
what one of the things they are
540
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,200
doing which is extra
conditioning for 4 yards that
541
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:54,800
you commit in penalties in a
game.
542
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,200
The other thing that you can do
is you can lose your spot.
543
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:02,200
The problem with losing your
spot is that we don't have the
544
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,700
depth to loot to have someone
lose their spot.
545
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,100
Right.
Now, now, we're not when you
546
00:32:08,100 --> 00:32:11,800
when someone loses their spot on
this offensive line and even in
547
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,200
other positions in this offense,
Talking about replacing them
548
00:32:15,300 --> 00:32:19,900
with a true freshman which could
result in a burnt red shirt or a
549
00:32:19,900 --> 00:32:23,100
walk-on.
I mean, you can now, you can all
550
00:32:23,100 --> 00:32:25,400
sorts of good stuff.
We had T right here, one from
551
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:30,000
Robbie one from the white again,
Robbie, basically, priest not
552
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,700
penalties.
Oh probably every third Alan up
553
00:32:32,700 --> 00:32:34,500
there.
Every hokey fans knows that
554
00:32:34,500 --> 00:32:36,600
tissue and it's not all coaching
Robbie.
555
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,000
Obviously, as a coach, there are
other one about a white up.
556
00:32:43,500 --> 00:32:46,100
And we've heard this since day,
one about the depth.
557
00:32:46,100 --> 00:32:49,200
We've heard it since day one and
I guess I get what they're
558
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:53,800
saying, if we had a team like
you would want to have and a guy
559
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:59,300
jumps off sides, twice in a game
yank him at least for into the
560
00:32:59,300 --> 00:33:02,500
quarter and put in the other guy
and see what you got.
561
00:33:02,500 --> 00:33:05,100
And if that guy's rolling, you
keep him in maybe for the rest
562
00:33:05,100 --> 00:33:09,000
of the game and that and that
shows that you're serious.
563
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,400
But we don't have the luxury of
that type of response from a
564
00:33:12,408 --> 00:33:17,200
coaching staff, Right now.
So these Lyman need to take
565
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,500
accountability for jumping off
sides and I'll say this it
566
00:33:20,500 --> 00:33:23,200
wasn't just the Lyman Daquan
jumped off.
567
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:24,900
We had a wide receiver jump all
of y'all.
568
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,100
Yeah Caleb jumped off.
We had three three or four that
569
00:33:29,100 --> 00:33:31,800
weren't on the offensive line so
this is not just an offensive
570
00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,100
line problem.
This, this is a concentration
571
00:33:34,100 --> 00:33:36,000
problem.
This is thinking too much
572
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,900
problem, this is worrying about
beating your guy, instead of
573
00:33:39,900 --> 00:33:42,100
focusing on what's Happening the
game problem.
574
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,700
Very, very true.
It's also funny put Robbie's
575
00:33:45,700 --> 00:33:49,700
quote up here again because you
you said this and it's really
576
00:33:49,700 --> 00:33:53,700
funny because proc continue to
say, all sides with false start
577
00:33:53,700 --> 00:33:55,100
sounds like is he talking that
backwards?
578
00:33:55,100 --> 00:33:58,000
But I think that's just
something common, but you
579
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:01,000
mentioned doing when we were
talking Friday.
580
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:03,300
I put it in the I put it in the
Tweet to.
581
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,000
Yes you did.
A lot of times, why would I get
582
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,800
false starts?
Because the freaking dtac on the
583
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:12,199
front of me was feed, my ads,
had my ass kicked and I'm trying
584
00:34:12,199 --> 00:34:17,199
to get a Bone, his ass display.
Whether it's I'm trying to kick
585
00:34:17,199 --> 00:34:22,199
back early or whether I'm trying
to get a Zone step or reach step
586
00:34:22,199 --> 00:34:24,199
or I'm trying to down block him
at the right.
587
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,900
I'm trying to step on my man
because he's handling handed me
588
00:34:27,900 --> 00:34:29,800
my ass right now.
Yep.
589
00:34:30,100 --> 00:34:31,300
All right.
Couple other things.
590
00:34:31,300 --> 00:34:35,500
Brian we let's mention about on
the players chance, black
591
00:34:35,500 --> 00:34:38,199
muffin, those kickoffs holy
shit.
592
00:34:38,300 --> 00:34:42,199
First of all, any time a kickoff
is muff, any kind of kick as
593
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:45,199
Mufti?
It's just like as a fan it's
594
00:34:45,199 --> 00:34:48,900
like, oh shit, not good, not
good.
595
00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:53,000
If it's bad because it
automatically takes away some of
596
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:57,800
the potential that the plays in
your playbook that you want to
597
00:34:57,800 --> 00:34:59,500
call as an offensive
coordinator.
598
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,600
Because now you're starting
inside the 10.
599
00:35:03,100 --> 00:35:05,700
Those play calls are going to be
a lot more conservative most
600
00:35:05,700 --> 00:35:07,400
time, especially for a team like
this.
601
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:11,700
That hasn't had a ton of
success, which is lining up and
602
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:15,000
doing, what they You to a
defense regardless of what kind
603
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,300
of looks they're getting we
don't we don't have that kind of
604
00:35:17,300 --> 00:35:21,900
offense right now so now you
either take the risk of taking
605
00:35:21,900 --> 00:35:25,200
shots from inside the 10 and if
you don't hit it now you're
606
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:29,200
putting to them you know in that
40 to 50 yard range or you're
607
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:33,000
risking a safety in a tight game
and things like that or you get
608
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,600
more conservative till you get
that first first first down or
609
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,900
two and we just we never got
that.
610
00:35:39,900 --> 00:35:42,800
Now we got handed a gift that we
ended up giving back on the A
611
00:35:42,808 --> 00:35:46,300
couple plays on that penalty,
true.
612
00:35:46,300 --> 00:35:50,600
When the late hit on Wells out
of bounds, when a late hit
613
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,800
necessarily but the unnecessary
roughness before throwing him
614
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:55,700
around.
After, after he got it rode him
615
00:35:55,700 --> 00:35:58,600
out of bounds, Peyton Wilson had
it, if he just lets him go on
616
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,100
rides, it's nothing.
But when he jerked, they weren't
617
00:36:01,100 --> 00:36:04,000
gonna get.
He didn't initiate that action
618
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,700
before he went out of bounds.
So it was the steps where out
619
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:11,400
and I think the last thing Ryan
coach you prize said it.
620
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,600
You said it, it's all the I
think, and it's depressing is
621
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,700
when you don't be, when you
start pressing the techniques
622
00:36:17,700 --> 00:36:21,900
gone, you don't play Within the
structure and bad things happen.
623
00:36:21,900 --> 00:36:27,500
And again, I go back to what I
think about this class being
624
00:36:27,500 --> 00:36:31,200
under 500 going into this year.
I don't think a lot of these
625
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:35,000
guys who have been playing here
for the last four years, guys,
626
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,000
you know, you come to love.
You love to see them play, you
627
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:42,100
want to see them do well.
I think that is what it is and I
628
00:36:42,107 --> 00:36:46,800
think it's literally going to
take a lot of new blood to flush
629
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:51,000
that out of the system.
Well, shit, I've said it a lot
630
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,500
and I know, I'm kind of
reiterating some of the, a
631
00:36:53,508 --> 00:36:57,100
matter of our take it elsewhere.
But, you know, we got a lot of
632
00:36:57,100 --> 00:37:01,200
veterans that have played that
have been role players on this
633
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:04,800
team that we are asking them
this year because of our depth
634
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:10,600
concerns to be the man at
certain positions. and some of
635
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:15,700
that may be beyond their skill
set, And we're talking about
636
00:37:15,700 --> 00:37:17,500
spread that I'm not just at one
position.
637
00:37:17,500 --> 00:37:20,200
I just said two positions but
probably over about five or six
638
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,800
positions.
We were asking guys that are
639
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:28,200
more veteran role players to be
veteran leaders and Veteran
640
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:31,800
standout players on this team
and that works for a quarter or
641
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,900
two.
But we're seeing it doesn't
642
00:37:33,900 --> 00:37:36,800
always work for four quarters
and two.
643
00:37:37,700 --> 00:37:38,800
That's it.
And that's what we're seeing a
644
00:37:38,808 --> 00:37:41,100
lot of.
So we when you see these young
645
00:37:41,100 --> 00:37:43,400
guys going out there and
competing, that's a good sign
646
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,500
because it shows that You know,
we could have that potential
647
00:37:46,500 --> 00:37:49,300
down the road but we've got to
we've got a lot of backfilling
648
00:37:49,300 --> 00:37:52,200
to do we did and it's going to
take you know you here.
649
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:56,100
Leslie is going to take the
portal and cycler and the Cycles
650
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:59,300
to backfill kind of the
situation that we kind of been
651
00:37:59,300 --> 00:38:01,400
dealt with with the last you
know two to three years of
652
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,600
recruiting and we have roster
has been managing those periods
653
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,800
which was not good but you kind
of started it right there but I
654
00:38:07,808 --> 00:38:11,500
think we as fans you know,
everybody's pissed for two and
655
00:38:11,500 --> 00:38:14,200
six.
We're I think because we're a
656
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:18,200
little Beyond this or two in 66.
I think that's being a little
657
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,900
older.
We start reading between the
658
00:38:20,900 --> 00:38:22,900
lines, because the record is
what it is.
659
00:38:22,900 --> 00:38:26,500
We're 216, that's who we are,
but if you start looking at this
660
00:38:26,500 --> 00:38:30,600
team, in the record, we have
only been truly drilled once and
661
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:33,000
that was Carolina.
They were twenty-four ten and
662
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,500
half.
They 140. 110, we were that we
663
00:38:35,500 --> 00:38:38,500
were drilled.
The game was over early, third
664
00:38:38,500 --> 00:38:40,700
quarter.
It wasn't, it wasn't closed for
665
00:38:40,700 --> 00:38:42,300
a long time.
Yeah, it wasn't.
666
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:47,800
For a long time but you kind of
sit back and say, Brian, you
667
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:50,900
know, a lot of these other
games, it's right there.
668
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:57,800
And at the end, it falls apart.
And in their quarters where me
669
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:02,300
and you both say?
If that team right there, third
670
00:39:02,300 --> 00:39:08,600
quarter this week, if that team
right there, showed up 75% of
671
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:12,300
the time.
We would be one in 75 or 80% of
672
00:39:12,300 --> 00:39:15,000
our games like those quarter
stretches.
673
00:39:15,500 --> 00:39:18,300
Now, the defense we've seen it
multiple cores.
674
00:39:18,300 --> 00:39:20,700
We saw it against Miami.
We saw it against State.
675
00:39:21,100 --> 00:39:23,800
We saw at the first three
quarters against West Virginia.
676
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,000
The defense is consistently, put
two and three quarters together
677
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,100
in a game.
Not have necessarily played for
678
00:39:29,100 --> 00:39:33,100
yet BC for three quarters.
Yeah I'll give them be safe.
679
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,600
I'll give him BC.
We know how bad BC is.
680
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:39,900
So yeah but with the offense
it's like one off cost.
681
00:39:40,100 --> 00:39:43,900
Hours, and when I say one-off
quarters, I mean this week that
682
00:39:43,900 --> 00:39:45,700
third quarter, eight minutes, 21
points.
683
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:49,700
Yeah, eight minutes of the game,
six minutes after the session 21
684
00:39:49,700 --> 00:39:52,000
points.
I ain't trying to say where I
685
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,400
live but that's Alabama, shit
that's Tennessee shit, that's
686
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,500
Ohio, State shit, where it's
like, Bam, Bam, Bam 21 points.
687
00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:01,800
Six minutes And that's how they
bury it but you look at that
688
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:04,100
game.
The Miami fourth quarter feet
689
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:06,800
early, first quarter into the
second and pit where it's just
690
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:11,300
like 14-point 17 points in, in
short stretches.
691
00:40:11,900 --> 00:40:17,100
So I said here and it's like a
silver lining and I say people
692
00:40:17,100 --> 00:40:19,000
are already saying Powerball and
should be fired.
693
00:40:19,700 --> 00:40:21,100
No.
First of all, I don't think
694
00:40:21,100 --> 00:40:24,600
anybody's getting fired.
You're wondering if that's your
695
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:26,600
go-to like who we should fire
people.
696
00:40:28,300 --> 00:40:31,800
Go look at Tennessee, go look at
a lot of these programs.
697
00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:35,200
It took years to cook 15 years
to rebuild, where they are.
698
00:40:35,500 --> 00:40:37,800
They kept firing people over and
over.
699
00:40:38,100 --> 00:40:39,800
But I look at it.
You see those Silver?
700
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:43,300
Linings And it's consistency,
right?
701
00:40:43,300 --> 00:40:46,500
Brian, like, yeah.
We seen flashes and it's like
702
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:50,600
shit.
And I think that goes back to
703
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:53,500
what I was just saying earlier,
is, like, you know, we're seeing
704
00:40:53,500 --> 00:40:56,400
these flashes and we're hoping
that we can put some of that
705
00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:00,000
more together.
When we say we're not seeing
706
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:01,900
progress, I think we're not
seeing progress because we're
707
00:41:01,900 --> 00:41:07,600
still losing losing games, but
there are things here there that
708
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:11,300
give you, you know, a little
hope of what's to come.
709
00:41:11,300 --> 00:41:14,900
Now, what I want to see a lot
more of is, you know, when we
710
00:41:14,900 --> 00:41:21,400
talked Back in March early,
March we did the the preview the
711
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:24,000
preview episode with Robbie,
Robbie came on, he broke down,
712
00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,400
what we can expect, from prion,
the defense, I looked at the
713
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,700
offense, I looked at a lot for
them tape.
714
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,800
Looked at some of the Penn State
stuff, things like that.
715
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:38,500
And looking at looking at
Fordham, you know, we saw some
716
00:41:38,500 --> 00:41:41,700
different things from that
offense that we haven't seen yet
717
00:41:41,700 --> 00:41:45,600
in this.
And I don't know if that is
718
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:46,900
weird.
Doing this.
719
00:41:46,900 --> 00:41:49,700
Well, so we haven't kind of
taken the next step and put this
720
00:41:49,700 --> 00:41:51,600
part of the offense in there
yet.
721
00:41:51,900 --> 00:41:55,900
I don't know whether it's that
some of the, the team isn't
722
00:41:55,900 --> 00:41:58,300
comfortable with running those
plays yet, hasn't shown it.
723
00:41:58,900 --> 00:42:01,000
Well enough in practice, where
they're comfortable with the
724
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:04,600
calls in the game.
Whatever the reason is, I want
725
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:11,000
to see a little bit more from
this offense in terms of when
726
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,700
that bread and butter isn't
working early, having something
727
00:42:13,700 --> 00:42:17,600
to Pivot to having having some
things that give the defense
728
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:22,900
fits that aren't just.
We're going to do we do and beat
729
00:42:22,900 --> 00:42:29,100
you that way because one of my
complaints against corn corn
730
00:42:29,100 --> 00:42:32,200
corn had a bad system and was
also a bad play caller.
731
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:35,000
I still think the system was
decent.
732
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:38,000
I think he was just system is,
but I'm saying in terms of how
733
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,600
he operated the system with.
If it's a pass play, you got to
734
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:45,100
throw it here or then you gotta
run it or eat it?
735
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,300
Yeah, I don't, I don't I don't
like that shit.
736
00:42:48,300 --> 00:42:51,400
So that's still on him.
And that's not just a calling
737
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,800
the game thing.
That's a, this is how I want to
738
00:42:53,800 --> 00:42:58,100
run my scheme thing.
Yeah, I got the steam itself.
739
00:42:58,100 --> 00:43:01,800
In terms of the plays were not
bad, it was how he wanted the
740
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:05,600
quarterback.
Execute said, calls that was
741
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:09,900
awful, combine that with having
zero, zero flow in the game.
742
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,200
And that's something I think we,
we don't see from Tyler bone, he
743
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:16,500
lets Royals operate because, as
well as Operate.
744
00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:20,000
Now, the problem is that we
haven't gotten deep enough into
745
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:24,100
the Playbook where, you know,
what we've what we've shown on
746
00:43:24,100 --> 00:43:27,700
film is almost kind of what we
see every game, the game.
747
00:43:28,900 --> 00:43:33,600
And I need to see more variety
and, and some more wrinkles from
748
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:35,200
the solvents.
And we're seeing them here or
749
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:40,500
there, but I don't think we're
seeing enough where it's giving
750
00:43:40,500 --> 00:43:42,800
us an advantage against the
defense we have.
751
00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:46,900
And, and I'm going to be just
very honest with you on that.
752
00:43:47,100 --> 00:43:50,400
You go for games, you're two and
six, nothing can get worse.
753
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:54,800
If you're trying to figure out
how it if Wells is going to be
754
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:56,800
your primary starter.
Next year, he's going to battle
755
00:43:56,800 --> 00:43:59,100
for a job.
It's almost Like rip the
756
00:43:59,100 --> 00:44:02,500
Band-Aid off, and just give them
everything and see how the
757
00:44:02,500 --> 00:44:06,000
offense works because by all
means, if you lose 40, you lose
758
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:09,800
four in a row, you're two.
And six to me, there is nothing
759
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,400
to lose.
And at least with this, you get
760
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:18,100
a full scope, a full scope of
Grant Wells, operating
761
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:22,300
everything in the Playbook not
just inside the Box.
762
00:44:23,300 --> 00:44:26,200
Yeah.
All right let's flip it over.
763
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:28,700
Brian other college football
notes.
764
00:44:28,700 --> 00:44:31,800
Obviously tonight I had to have
you texted I had a couple
765
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,900
buddies Malik Mike text me like
we all think of the playoff I'm
766
00:44:34,900 --> 00:44:37,400
like, haven't seen it yet.
This is literally the first time
767
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,700
seeing it right now.
And I'm actually proud of the
768
00:44:40,700 --> 00:44:45,400
committee putting Tennessee at
one, Ohio State at to Georgia
769
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:50,100
three Clemson forward Michigan
five Tennessee.
770
00:44:50,100 --> 00:44:55,100
Has beat multiple multiple
ranked football teams.
771
00:44:55,400 --> 00:45:00,900
Yep.
Multiple and Ohio State has beat
772
00:45:00,900 --> 00:45:03,700
multiple ranked Notre Dame,
doesn't look as good.
773
00:45:03,700 --> 00:45:07,300
But the Penn State Victory last
week, obviously really good.
774
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:11,500
I think they got it, right?
I really do.
775
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:15,600
And obviously, if you take a
look at that, we've got to play
776
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:19,200
in games on the way in the next
month, ones this week.
777
00:45:19,300 --> 00:45:20,700
Came.
We're going to talk about that
778
00:45:20,700 --> 00:45:23,000
one later, trust us.
What about you?
779
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,100
Did you do you think it's right?
Do you like Clemson being it
780
00:45:26,100 --> 00:45:28,200
for?
Or would you have put Michigan
781
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,100
there?
Ought to put Michigan there.
782
00:45:31,100 --> 00:45:35,400
I thought that she was going to
be for, I like it.
783
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,600
Otherwise, I mean, I can make an
argument for Georgia over Ohio
784
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,100
State, but they're very
neck-and-neck.
785
00:45:41,100 --> 00:45:44,400
In my opinion, Tennessee has the
best resume.
786
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,300
I don't know if they're the best
team, but they certainly have
787
00:45:46,300 --> 00:45:49,400
the best resume, which is why
they are number one in That,
788
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,200
that's a fair number one for
them.
789
00:45:53,100 --> 00:45:57,000
Like I said, I could argue
Georgia to, or Ohio State it to,
790
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,100
I think Clemson is probably the
only one that got wrong at this
791
00:46:00,100 --> 00:46:02,000
point.
I would definitely put them kind
792
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:05,200
of just outside looking in in
the initial pole.
793
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,000
I think, Michigan's kind of done
more so far.
794
00:46:10,100 --> 00:46:12,900
Okay.
And you know, I think I'd put
795
00:46:12,900 --> 00:46:16,600
them behind Michigan and
obviously Alabama's number 6
796
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:18,000
here.
So I put them just ahead of
797
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,500
Alabama.
Oh, Are they an unblemished
798
00:46:20,500 --> 00:46:21,600
record?
Are they now?
799
00:46:21,900 --> 00:46:26,600
Placing so an undefeated team is
below a loss, Alabama?
800
00:46:27,100 --> 00:46:30,600
Yeah, Theses below Alabama,
yeah, that's always irritating
801
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,400
to me.
So TCU, has not been proven.
802
00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:39,200
They can be beaten correct.
Alabama has Alabama, has shown,
803
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:42,200
they can lose a game tcu's, not
if you flip flop them.
804
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,200
I'm fine with that.
I'm fine with that.
805
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:46,600
I think organs too high.
Don't think you get the doors
806
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:49,000
going off of you.
Even if it's early in the
807
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:50,800
season, I don't think they
should be that high.
808
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:58,100
I think, at least USC Ole, Miss
should be above them, probably
809
00:46:58,100 --> 00:47:00,400
no one else.
I'm not, I don't know how, a to
810
00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:04,000
Los LSU team because LSU as
still not impressed.
811
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:09,100
They lost to a mediocre.
Florida State team at home,
812
00:47:09,100 --> 00:47:14,200
pretty much sand, but we'll
discuss that more as we get down
813
00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,200
to it.
There's definitely some SEC
814
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:21,400
biases always in there.
But you know It is what it is.
815
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:23,400
I mean, you look at that Florida
State team.
816
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,900
I mean, it's a, it's a better
than we expected, Florida State
817
00:47:26,900 --> 00:47:29,600
team, but still nothing to write
home about Florida, State team.
818
00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:32,600
Yeah.
Now, if this was the 12 team
819
00:47:32,700 --> 00:47:37,500
that would be games in Ann,
Arbor Tuscaloosa Fort Worth in
820
00:47:37,500 --> 00:47:40,400
at the Autzen Zoo decision.
And I don't worry.
821
00:47:50,800 --> 00:48:00,700
Zero degrees on the East Coast
having to go to the zoo.
822
00:48:01,500 --> 00:48:04,900
Well, that would be actually.
That would be USC.
823
00:48:06,100 --> 00:48:07,900
Have it that way?
They probably flip it put, like,
824
00:48:07,900 --> 00:48:12,000
LSU there to go up to the zoo.
That'd be nice and yeah, so it's
825
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,200
interesting.
All right, other big news this
826
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:18,900
week, the Big 12, new TV deal,
the dominoes are slowly falling
827
00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:23,300
2.28, Million over six years
between Fox and ESPN.
828
00:48:24,100 --> 00:48:31,200
I'd love to see the numbers from
each because obviously obviously
829
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:33,600
the math is roughly 30 million a
year.
830
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:38,100
I think Big 12 st.
Closer to 50 with all the other
831
00:48:38,100 --> 00:48:39,400
payouts.
Well we're looking strictly at
832
00:48:39,408 --> 00:48:41,500
the TV money because the other
payouts are variable.
833
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:43,400
Yep.
You may get some of it.
834
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:45,900
You may not get some of it so
keep that off the table.
835
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,100
But let's say split right down
there.
836
00:48:48,100 --> 00:48:50,300
So some of it, some of its a
straight shares.
837
00:48:50,400 --> 00:48:52,900
Some of it depends on where you
land.
838
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,400
Exactly.
But if you if we just say, it's
839
00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:59,700
a straight middle and it's 1.14
billion.
840
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:05,800
We know that 1 Point 1 4 billion
for ESP and I'm focused more on
841
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:11,800
ESPN than Fox because fox has
the Big Ten.
842
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:16,800
They have the big 12, the Pac-12
deal still not done yet which is
843
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:20,300
really in.
This is a good-sized deal but
844
00:49:20,300 --> 00:49:28,900
now you know 1.14 is roughly how
much a year God I hate doing
845
00:49:28,900 --> 00:49:31,600
math, this late.
If I had a chance to do this
846
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:34,400
earlier, we're doing split
straight, split wouldn't be 15.
847
00:49:37,300 --> 00:49:41,500
What 15 or know what I'm saying
is, how much money each year?
848
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:44,900
ESPN is going into it.
I got would be suited, be
849
00:49:44,900 --> 00:49:48,800
something like 200, probably
right under 200 million a year.
850
00:49:50,500 --> 00:49:52,900
So close to 15 a year per
payout.
851
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:56,200
But what, that tells you right
there though, is they still got
852
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:59,500
money left.
Now I think they're going to
853
00:49:59,500 --> 00:50:02,500
bump the SEC up but I think the
AC even though they're locked
854
00:50:02,500 --> 00:50:08,900
into the 15-year deal.
ESPN is going to probably pay a
855
00:50:08,908 --> 00:50:12,900
little bit more.
I think the acc's with with the
856
00:50:12,900 --> 00:50:16,100
ACC Network going full live is
close to 30 million.
857
00:50:16,100 --> 00:50:18,900
Now, think it's what it is, like
twenty seven and a half.
858
00:50:19,500 --> 00:50:22,500
I think the ACC will get a
little bit more to product to
859
00:50:22,500 --> 00:50:23,600
me.
I think the ACC is going to be
860
00:50:23,600 --> 00:50:26,500
probably closer to thirty seven
straight TV deal.
861
00:50:27,300 --> 00:50:31,100
And but this is what we talked
about because the big Tim's gone
862
00:50:31,500 --> 00:50:34,700
ESPN does not have the Big Ten
in a few years and it was all
863
00:50:34,700 --> 00:50:36,900
that money.
Then you know, they bid up to a
864
00:50:36,900 --> 00:50:40,900
point probably somewhere in the
neighborhood of about 70 million
865
00:50:40,900 --> 00:50:43,800
and team.
And now that money is coming
866
00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:46,500
back so it's going to be
interested to see how that plays
867
00:50:46,500 --> 00:50:47,600
out.
Yeah.
868
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:49,200
Yeah.
What do they do with an extra
869
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:50,700
money?
Does does a cut of that?
870
00:50:50,700 --> 00:50:55,000
Go to the ACC in a renegotiated
deal?
871
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:58,800
Does all of that go to the SEC?
I don't think it all can go to
872
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:01,100
the SEC.
I don't think it does either.
873
00:51:01,100 --> 00:51:03,100
Don't think it does either.
I think they get a good shot
874
00:51:03,300 --> 00:51:05,000
well, because of where their
contract is now.
875
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,900
They run.
Roughly only need about.
876
00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:16,200
I feel like they only need maybe
do the math here, maybe like 250
877
00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,100
million a year to be above the
Big Ten.
878
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:20,600
Okay.
And so obviously we don't have
879
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,300
big, The Big Ten steel is, we
know you.
880
00:51:23,300 --> 00:51:26,500
Look at this, it's probably
another 200 million out there.
881
00:51:26,500 --> 00:51:31,300
How much goes back to the ACC,
Do they negotiate?
882
00:51:31,300 --> 00:51:34,200
Anything with the Pac-12?
Now that you're down to 10 teams
883
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,000
will be interesting.
All right.
884
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:39,900
Last piece before we head to
break here, Brian Harrison for
885
00:51:39,900 --> 00:51:45,400
real got fired today, not a
catfish, not a catfish, not me,
886
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:49,100
Barrett Sally, confirmed it and
I'm going to be honest.
887
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,000
They haven't heard the ad, they
look like doing the Mississippi
888
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:56,700
State ad, which God bless that
guy because to take it with
889
00:51:56,700 --> 00:51:59,400
those freaking lunatic snout on
the plains.
890
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:05,300
Who wants to coach their like
seriously like who would who in
891
00:52:05,300 --> 00:52:08,100
their right mind would actually
want to try to coach their?
892
00:52:08,700 --> 00:52:14,100
Yeah, I mean you know Brian
Harrison is done himself zero
893
00:52:14,100 --> 00:52:16,200
favors in this all.
Yes, and let's go ahead and put
894
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:21,500
that out there. 00 favors at the
same time.
895
00:52:23,900 --> 00:52:27,200
With those with those donors out
there, it's a clown show, man.
896
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:32,800
They, they run everything.
The thing is, it's constantly,
897
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:35,400
we got to get rid of people, we
need to do something different,
898
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:40,100
and it's just like, they had Gus
for, you know, close to 78 years
899
00:52:40,100 --> 00:52:42,300
and God took him to a national
championship.
900
00:52:42,300 --> 00:52:45,000
Gus had them in the running,
godspeed, Alabama, a few times.
901
00:52:46,100 --> 00:52:51,600
They're one of those programs to
me that they get a little
902
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:55,300
winning in them.
They come Lately, forget who
903
00:52:55,300 --> 00:52:58,000
they are.
And then when they have a couple
904
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,200
mediocre season, everybody wants
to burn plates down because oh,
905
00:53:01,200 --> 00:53:04,000
it's all screwed up.
You are who you are.
906
00:53:04,300 --> 00:53:05,800
And that's where the Mississippi
State guy.
907
00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:09,600
Got bless his soul.
Yeah, I mean, I think they want
908
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:15,500
so bad to be like Tier 1 all the
time, like some of the some of
909
00:53:15,500 --> 00:53:20,200
their other in-state Rivals.
And some of the other teams in
910
00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:23,300
their conference, and they need
to recognize that.
911
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:26,200
That they're, they're a team
that because of the money that
912
00:53:26,200 --> 00:53:30,900
they have, they can punch up but
they're still going to be more
913
00:53:30,900 --> 00:53:33,500
or less, a tear to type program
consistently.
914
00:53:33,900 --> 00:53:37,600
Yeah, we lack the ability to
punch up.
915
00:53:38,100 --> 00:53:41,300
What they've done the last 11
years, though, I would take it
916
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,700
to.
Oh, yeah, and be saved game of
917
00:53:43,700 --> 00:53:46,500
appearances.
Only really, really only two Bad
918
00:53:46,500 --> 00:53:50,700
seasons and then the rest can
really take it even further back
919
00:53:50,700 --> 00:53:52,900
than that.
I mean, if you go back last 20
920
00:53:52,900 --> 00:53:59,500
years, I don't for I mean they
said really good teams, really
921
00:53:59,500 --> 00:54:02,200
good team.
I definitely take it heartbeats
922
00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:05,800
because just because you're not
that Elite of elite every year.
923
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:11,800
I mean again you punched up a
few times you've you know,
924
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:15,100
you've you've won the big ones
that you've had to win to put
925
00:54:15,100 --> 00:54:17,400
yourself in a position to play
in some big games.
926
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:20,900
Yeah, absolutely.
All right.
927
00:54:20,900 --> 00:54:23,800
So Brian before we get to know
the enemy for N.c.
928
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,900

quick pause from our digital

Dash report.
Now back to the episode.
937
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:55,100
All right Brian, let's start
with Georgia Tech Know, The
938
00:54:55,100 --> 00:54:58,200
Enemy offensive side of the ball
and let's start at the
939
00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:01,200
quarterback.
The quarterback which one?
940
00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:06,500
Well they all right, here we go.
Who had not really showed much
941
00:55:06,500 --> 00:55:10,400
of the Freshman Georgia Tech
shown everybody since Jeff
942
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:12,700
Simmons got banged, you got
Sims.
943
00:55:12,700 --> 00:55:14,800
You got Zach, Gibson, and Zach
power.
944
00:55:15,500 --> 00:55:18,500
Let's go.
This order give me.
945
00:55:19,300 --> 00:55:22,600
Obviously Sims has one.
So we'll talk about him last.
946
00:55:23,300 --> 00:55:26,100
Who's the least likely guy?
We're going to see this week and
947
00:55:26,100 --> 00:55:28,600
if he does have to play, give me
a quick.
948
00:55:29,100 --> 00:55:32,800
What we're gonna see in his
offense, more than likely, the
949
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,100
least likely is going to be Zach
Gibson.
950
00:55:35,900 --> 00:55:41,800
He started the last game they
played against FS, you didn't
951
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:47,500
make it very far into that game.
Really more of a, more of an
952
00:55:47,500 --> 00:55:51,400
athlete decent short game
accuracy, with his arm effective
953
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:56,100
in the running game.
Only average arm strength,
954
00:55:56,100 --> 00:55:59,700
average accuracy, not really
effective in the pocket will
955
00:55:59,700 --> 00:56:01,900
panic when he's pressured
consistently.
956
00:56:01,900 --> 00:56:04,900
So not not exactly.
The guy you want to pull the
957
00:56:04,900 --> 00:56:08,100
trigger there in a game
especially against a team like
958
00:56:08,100 --> 00:56:10,900
the Hokies that we know we do
have a pretty effective defense
959
00:56:10,900 --> 00:56:14,300
at least for 3/4.
So so so for if it's Zack
960
00:56:14,500 --> 00:56:15,900
Gibson.
We're going to see the smallest
961
00:56:15,900 --> 00:56:20,200
playbook in the actual
potentially smallest person able
962
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:24,900
to run their offense.
Yes, smallest Playbook just
963
00:56:24,900 --> 00:56:27,500
because he doesn't have the arm
to drive the ball down the
964
00:56:27,500 --> 00:56:28,800
field.
Okay?
965
00:56:28,800 --> 00:56:30,200
Okay.
All right.
966
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:32,500
Well, what about pyram?
What about pot?
967
00:56:32,500 --> 00:56:35,000
Because Jeff seems obviously if
he's healthy Sims is going to
968
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:36,100
plane.
He's the best quarterback.
969
00:56:36,100 --> 00:56:37,600
They have.
But what do we see in from
970
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,200
piron?
Pyron is a step up and
971
00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:42,600
athleticism, he's a more
powerful Runner.
972
00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:46,100
He's got a more effective.
More effective arm strength,
973
00:56:48,300 --> 00:56:53,100
does a better job of
intermediate passing game than
974
00:56:53,100 --> 00:56:55,900
Gibson.
He does still like the arm
975
00:56:55,900 --> 00:56:59,500
strength to take some deep shots
consistently, but he will make
976
00:56:59,500 --> 00:57:01,500
some effective throws in the
intermediate passing game.
977
00:57:01,500 --> 00:57:05,300
So it does stretch the field a
little bit there for them, but
978
00:57:05,300 --> 00:57:09,500
he is effective in it three,
step drill and he will scramble.
979
00:57:09,500 --> 00:57:12,200
Well, keep his eyes down field
for check downs and things like
980
00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:14,300
that.
So more.
981
00:57:14,500 --> 00:57:15,900
Of em.
And again, probably a more
982
00:57:15,900 --> 00:57:19,600
effective runner in the zone
read because of his size and
983
00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:23,800
power, all right?
And then last clearly if he's
984
00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:31,400
healthy Jeff Sims, the 63 205
pound quarterback out of Duval.
985
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:36,200
Florida composite four-star was
a top 24/7, player top 10
986
00:57:36,200 --> 00:57:38,600
quarterback.
So far this season.
987
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:40,900
He's throwing nine.
Excuse me, he's thrown five
988
00:57:40,900 --> 00:57:47,300
touchdowns only rush for one.
You know over 300 yards there
989
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:51,000
and we we all if you've been
following Hoagie football for
990
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:53,700
the last five years you know who
Jeff Simmons is.
991
00:57:53,700 --> 00:57:57,200
At one point, he was right there
with us and then he decided to
992
00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:00,600
go to Georgia Tech.
What do we see from him?
993
00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:03,700
That makes him obviously, if
they want him to start.
994
00:58:04,700 --> 00:58:06,300
Yeah, I mean the big thing is
confidence.
995
00:58:06,300 --> 00:58:09,300
He's a quick decision, maker
delivers, a good accurate ball
996
00:58:09,300 --> 00:58:11,600
that allows receiver to kind of
turn up field.
997
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:14,200
Get some yards after the catch.
Great ass.
998
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:16,500
You expect extends plays with
his legs.
999
00:58:16,500 --> 00:58:20,900
Looks to make the play down the
field as he's kind of escaping
1000
00:58:20,900 --> 00:58:24,600
the pocket and getting to the
perimeter, he is a type of
1001
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:26,800
quarterback, you know, that we
I've been talking about that can
1002
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:28,200
Elevate the play of those around
him.
1003
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:31,100
He's that type of player but he
will take risks with the
1004
00:58:31,100 --> 00:58:33,400
football in the passing game.
So, there is some opportunities
1005
00:58:33,400 --> 00:58:37,000
for some, you know, potential
fumbles or turnovers there.
1006
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:42,100
But I mean, he's definitely the
one of the better quarterbacks
1007
00:58:42,100 --> 00:58:46,300
we've seen this year in terms of
his Skill set and definitely the
1008
00:58:46,300 --> 00:58:51,300
best quarterback on that roster.
Yeah, I mean he obviously is the
1009
00:58:51,300 --> 00:58:53,100
best.
If he's If he if you see him
1010
00:58:53,100 --> 00:58:56,100
playing you're going to get
their best game offensive ly,
1011
00:58:56,100 --> 00:58:58,400
which isn't the greatest, which
we'll talk about later.
1012
00:58:58,700 --> 00:59:00,600
But let's just be very honest
with this team.
1013
00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:04,600
This team is a run first team.
They, you know, they've ran the
1014
00:59:04,607 --> 00:59:06,800
ball 30 more times than they
passed it.
1015
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:10,300
Because a, they've given a 30
sacks or they're giving up a
1016
00:59:10,300 --> 00:59:13,300
sack about one.
Every eight drop backs, but they
1017
00:59:13,300 --> 00:59:15,900
have actually a couple Two
really good running backs in the
1018
00:59:15,900 --> 00:59:17,500
first.
Let's talk about here is on,
1019
00:59:17,700 --> 00:59:21,600
let's talk about.
Hassan Hall, a transfer from
1020
00:59:21,700 --> 00:59:27,700
Louisville class of 2018 was a
mid three-star there from the
1021
00:59:27,700 --> 00:59:31,400
state of Georgia at Maynard
Jackson in Atlanta, and, you
1022
00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,800
know, so far this season brown
with a sign.
1023
00:59:34,100 --> 00:59:39,100
He's averaging, you know, just
over five yards, a carry 315
1024
00:59:39,100 --> 00:59:43,000
total yards.
Interesting piece here is no
1025
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:47,500
touchdown.
So that's something to keep an
1026
00:59:47,500 --> 00:59:52,200
eye on in.
You know what are you seeing
1027
00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:56,100
from him on the tape?
Yeah, he's pretty effective.
1028
00:59:57,100 --> 01:00:01,500
Catching the ball out of the
backfield solid vision and he's
1029
01:00:01,500 --> 01:00:05,500
an angry Runner finishes, his
runs well good at identifying
1030
01:00:05,500 --> 01:00:09,300
cut back Lanes, that's where you
kind of gets a lot of his extra
1031
01:00:09,300 --> 01:00:12,300
yardage there but he's not
really a home run threat in the
1032
01:00:12,300 --> 01:00:14,900
offense.
He's not heavily Used around the
1033
01:00:14,900 --> 01:00:19,900
goal line.
They usually focus more on some
1034
01:00:19,900 --> 01:00:25,300
other guys, whether it's whether
it be Sims or one of the other
1035
01:00:25,300 --> 01:00:28,100
quarterback quarterbacks trying
to get when they get around the
1036
01:00:28,107 --> 01:00:33,100
goal line there.
But he's he's one of those guys
1037
01:00:33,100 --> 01:00:35,600
that gets you a lot of yardage
kind of between the 20s.
1038
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:40,800
Alrighty.
So now they have a second
1039
01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:42,900
running back as well.
Let's talk about him Nationals.
1040
01:00:42,900 --> 01:00:47,300
Talk about Dante Smith Smith so
far this year.
1041
01:00:47,700 --> 01:00:51,300
Again also averaging five your
over five yards, a carry at five
1042
01:00:51,300 --> 01:00:57,000
point, one three touchdowns, 258
total yards, little bit of
1043
01:00:57,000 --> 01:01:04,200
receiving eight receptions in
eight games and you know, came
1044
01:01:04,200 --> 01:01:07,600
was a myth 3 star coming out of
Spring Hill.
1045
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:10,800
Columbia Tennessee.
All-purpose back.
1046
01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:16,300
Not a lot of D1 offers but, you
know, a little bit of speed
1047
01:01:16,300 --> 01:01:18,200
there.
What makes him a little bit
1048
01:01:18,200 --> 01:01:21,600
different than Hall?
Yeah, he's moreover the
1049
01:01:21,607 --> 01:01:24,400
perimeter threat than Hall,
especially running the ball,
1050
01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:27,700
he's primarily uses kind of
their third down or change of
1051
01:01:27,700 --> 01:01:31,900
pace.
Back better, blocker overall and
1052
01:01:31,900 --> 01:01:34,400
they do use him in some of the
heavier packages around the goal
1053
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:38,300
line, in place of Hall to kind
of punch it in. 46.
1054
01:01:41,100 --> 01:01:44,000
All right.
And you know just kind of
1055
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:47,800
looking in general with these
guys Hall is I would say the
1056
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:52,500
lead back of the to he's out
Carrie Smith by, you know, over
1057
01:01:52,500 --> 01:01:56,100
30 carries in, you know, Georgia
Tech's first, eight game so
1058
01:01:56,300 --> 01:01:59,600
roughly getting probably four to
five more touches, probably
1059
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:06,300
seeing the field 8 to 10, more
snaps than Smith just based on
1060
01:02:06,300 --> 01:02:08,600
that.
But obviously Smith has the nose
1061
01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:12,400
for the end zone.
We're Hall doesn't and even
1062
01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:15,500
though we've mentioned that this
is a run team and you see Jeff
1063
01:02:15,500 --> 01:02:18,000
Sims numbers.
You know he's got over 300 total
1064
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:22,800
rushing yards with a touchdown.
They do have some receivers you
1065
01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:26,200
know and as we started kind of
looking at a little bit of
1066
01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:29,200
everybody, I thought about going
to Nate McCullum.
1067
01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:32,600
Who is their leading Rod
receiver.
1068
01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:36,100
But something with Malachi
Carter just kind of caught my
1069
01:02:36,100 --> 01:02:39,200
eye on a couple, his games
couple of his games.
1070
01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:43,300
He only had a few catches but
put up kind of bigger numbers
1071
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:47,400
and I wanted to kind of get your
feel on him.
1072
01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:51,100
Brian you know was a three-star
when he came out in 2018 out of
1073
01:02:51,100 --> 01:02:54,300
Georgia.
What makes him a little
1074
01:02:54,300 --> 01:02:56,600
difference where I see a couple
of those games where he kind of
1075
01:02:56,600 --> 01:03:01,300
popped over 15 yards, a carry.
Yeah, most of that is from the
1076
01:03:01,300 --> 01:03:03,500
yards after the catch.
He has good hands.
1077
01:03:03,500 --> 01:03:06,000
He runs.
Well, after the catch, mostly
1078
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:10,100
works from the outside sometimes
for the slot dangerous in the
1079
01:03:10,100 --> 01:03:14,400
open field, he's not really used
much in the screen game though
1080
01:03:15,200 --> 01:03:18,900
that makes most of his hay in
that kind of intermediate range.
1081
01:03:18,900 --> 01:03:21,700
So when they are attacking a
little bit more downfield,
1082
01:03:22,500 --> 01:03:24,100
that's kind of where he makes
his hay.
1083
01:03:24,100 --> 01:03:27,200
And he's he does a pretty good
job after the catch with some of
1084
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:29,300
those balls.
Yeah.
1085
01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:33,400
I wanted to focus on that also
when Brown when you kind of
1086
01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:37,800
through your notes in there and
it kind of made me think this
1087
01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:42,400
tackles been better this year,
but he's the guy we do not want
1088
01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:44,700
to see, get the ball in space
and start missing tackles, he
1089
01:03:44,700 --> 01:03:49,400
will make us pay.
So I hope we can keep him under
1090
01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:54,500
wraps for the game but again
also listen mate, McCullum EJ
1091
01:03:54,500 --> 01:03:56,600
Jenkins just a couple other wide
receiver names.
1092
01:03:56,600 --> 01:03:59,300
They're all right Braun let's
talk about it.
1093
01:03:59,400 --> 01:04:02,400
It will talk about the scheme on
the offense and let's talk about
1094
01:04:02,400 --> 01:04:05,000
the offensive line.
Yeah.
1095
01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,300
I mean I'd say probably
especially in past Pro.
1096
01:04:07,300 --> 01:04:09,300
This is the the worst offensive
line unit.
1097
01:04:09,300 --> 01:04:13,700
We've seen since BC, we need to
stay aggressive and keep
1098
01:04:13,700 --> 01:04:16,000
pressure on them.
To keep them frustrated, they
1099
01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:21,200
are good when they can kind of
create predictable outcomes.
1100
01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:25,500
They're not good.
When you get aggressive with
1101
01:04:25,500 --> 01:04:28,600
them.
When you confuse them, they
1102
01:04:28,600 --> 01:04:31,500
become a shell.
So if we can stay aggressive the
1103
01:04:31,500 --> 01:04:34,600
whole game and bring some
pressure, especially in a game
1104
01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:38,700
where we're not quite as worried
about the downfield throws, you
1105
01:04:38,700 --> 01:04:41,100
know, you, hopefully we can, we
can hold up on the back and a
1106
01:04:41,107 --> 01:04:43,900
little bit better than we did
laid against NC State.
1107
01:04:44,100 --> 01:04:46,700
But I mean we're looking at it
kind of a Smash Mouth spread,
1108
01:04:46,700 --> 01:04:49,600
it's going to be heavy, heavy
heavy Zone.
1109
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:54,400
Read our po elements, they're
not taking a ton of shots
1110
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:57,100
downfield.
This is very much a run focused
1111
01:04:57,100 --> 01:05:04,800
run first offense And without
Sims their damn near a triple
1112
01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:10,200
option team.
A lot of times guys, we know
1113
01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:14,400
about Georgia Tech in the triple
option but you know, they really
1114
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:19,000
kind of become that that type of
almost run exclusive.
1115
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:21,700
Unless they're, they're playing
from behind type team.
1116
01:05:22,500 --> 01:05:27,000
They were down multiple scores
against FSU and they were still,
1117
01:05:27,900 --> 01:05:34,100
you know, run run. and then pass
when they had to So that they
1118
01:05:34,100 --> 01:05:37,100
were going to, they definitely
want to run the football if
1119
01:05:37,100 --> 01:05:40,000
they're going to have success in
the offense woman Chosen and
1120
01:05:40,008 --> 01:05:42,600
he's chosen the staffs mean
they're under six.
1121
01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:48,500
Yeah, it hurt game.
I mean per attempt under six and
1122
01:05:48,500 --> 01:05:51,500
temp, that's just ugly.
Yeah, I think if we do a good
1123
01:05:51,500 --> 01:05:56,100
job attacking that mesh point
that that'll kind of keep things
1124
01:05:56,100 --> 01:06:00,800
in a more predictable outcome,
make sure that we kind of Let
1125
01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:03,400
Jeff Sims give it as much as you
can.
1126
01:06:05,100 --> 01:06:12,400
That would be ideal or put him
in a no-win situation where if
1127
01:06:12,500 --> 01:06:15,000
he gives it or keeps it.
He's kind of eat up that that's
1128
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:18,400
kind of what we need to do.
Keep him living in Hell a little
1129
01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:22,700
bit, but getting a lead on them,
early could really help them.
1130
01:06:22,900 --> 01:06:25,600
Help us kind of get them out of
their game plan there because
1131
01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:26,900
they definitely want to run the
ball.
1132
01:06:26,900 --> 01:06:28,300
They definitely want to kill
clock.
1133
01:06:28,700 --> 01:06:31,300
It's still that type of offense.
Even though we're not seeing
1134
01:06:31,300 --> 01:06:36,200
that that triple option that
flexbone, that we saw from
1135
01:06:37,300 --> 01:06:40,800
Georgia Tech for years, but
it's, but it's me, but it's
1136
01:06:40,800 --> 01:06:43,400
funny, you say it could get them
out of their game plan, but on
1137
01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:46,500
the other hand they just might
stay in their game plan and we
1138
01:06:46,500 --> 01:06:48,500
get up 21 nothing like we're
just going to keep running the
1139
01:06:48,508 --> 01:06:50,700
ball.
Thank you.
1140
01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:54,000
All right.
He's gonna keep running the ball
1141
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:58,900
and not having any success and I
mean they doing well enough, but
1142
01:06:58,900 --> 01:07:00,100
they're not, they're not moving
it.
1143
01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:03,400
Consistently enough to.
Yeah, it's like they'll have an
1144
01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:05,900
eight or ten yard gain a little
back it up with the two or three
1145
01:07:05,900 --> 01:07:09,700
or one or two, and sometimes a
negative play and next thing you
1146
01:07:09,700 --> 01:07:12,700
know, they're punting.
So he's was that.
1147
01:07:12,700 --> 01:07:14,800
That's kind of how we've got a
got to do it.
1148
01:07:14,800 --> 01:07:18,100
We can't let you know, one or
two, first downs, kind of create
1149
01:07:18,100 --> 01:07:21,100
that tidal wave where they end
up rolling into the end zone.
1150
01:07:21,100 --> 01:07:23,800
We got to make sure that we're
getting off the field.
1151
01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:26,100
Absolutely.
Alright.
1152
01:07:26,100 --> 01:07:29,800
So next guy, Braun, we're going
to flip over to defense first.
1153
01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:34,900
Go on Talk about guy who started
his playing career as class of
1154
01:07:34,900 --> 01:07:41,000
2017 at Old Dominion, he
transferred in to Georgia Tech.
1155
01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:44,600
He was a two-star when he came
out of high school down.
1156
01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:48,100
In Garner, North Carolina at
Garner, High School, a ski on
1157
01:07:48,100 --> 01:07:50,000
white.
And you know, so far this
1158
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:53,800
season, four sacks leading the
team in sacks.
1159
01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:59,000
You know, thirty five tackles
past deflection as well and he's
1160
01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:04,400
at prototypical All the build
your love on 65 286.
1161
01:08:05,200 --> 01:08:09,400
How does he show on tape?
Really good.
1162
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:15,100
Actually, he's kind of a guy
that they use in a lot of
1163
01:08:15,100 --> 01:08:20,700
different ways.
He's got really good size, which
1164
01:08:20,700 --> 01:08:22,800
helps him kind of slide into a
three technique.
1165
01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:25,800
When they go with a different
line set, but he's also kind of
1166
01:08:25,800 --> 01:08:27,899
that big in that can also rush
the passer.
1167
01:08:27,899 --> 01:08:32,200
Well, the only thing he doesn't
do great, he's not he's not very
1168
01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:35,700
good at shedding blocks and and
for his size he can get moved
1169
01:08:35,700 --> 01:08:40,600
out of the gaps but Wendy can
shoot a gap and penetrate that's
1170
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:44,800
kind of where he makes his hey
and he does a good job there.
1171
01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:48,100
And like I said, for his size
very above average pass rusher,
1172
01:08:48,100 --> 01:08:51,600
whether he's lined up outside
the tackle or inside the tackle,
1173
01:08:53,100 --> 01:08:57,000
Alrighty, let's flip now, let's
look at the two linebackers.
1174
01:08:57,100 --> 01:09:00,899
Let's start with Charlie Thomas.
First of all Thomas out of
1175
01:09:00,899 --> 01:09:05,399
Thomasville High School in
Georgia class of 18, a high 3
1176
01:09:05,399 --> 01:09:08,899
star in the state of Georgia.
Top 50 player down there when he
1177
01:09:08,899 --> 01:09:11,800
came out.
And so far this year, I mean, 70
1178
01:09:11,800 --> 01:09:16,000
total tackles which is second on
the yellow jackets.
1179
01:09:16,300 --> 01:09:18,399
Behind one guy will talk about
in a few minutes.
1180
01:09:18,399 --> 01:09:21,500
He has a sack, he's forced a
fumble, couple of interceptions,
1181
01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:27,399
6220 Seven, where is he lining
up on it with Charlie?
1182
01:09:28,500 --> 01:09:31,100
Yes, so he's a, the positions
called money.
1183
01:09:31,100 --> 01:09:36,800
It's actually similar to the
backer that we were used to, in
1184
01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:41,000
the Bud Foster system.
So he's better against the Run
1185
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:44,700
than the past.
He will Blitz but not quite as
1186
01:09:44,700 --> 01:09:46,800
often as the guy that we're
going to talk about next.
1187
01:09:48,100 --> 01:09:51,899
Navigates the trash.
Well to get to an attack is Gap
1188
01:09:51,899 --> 01:09:56,200
responsibilities, he's
inconsistent in coverage but
1189
01:09:56,200 --> 01:10:00,300
he's pretty solid when he can
kind of read react and drive on
1190
01:10:00,300 --> 01:10:04,600
a route versus having to sit
back and kind of pass guys
1191
01:10:04,600 --> 01:10:10,400
through zones or working man, it
will miss a tackle occasionally,
1192
01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:13,700
especially when he's in Pursuit,
but he's really good.
1193
01:10:13,700 --> 01:10:15,800
He's kind of playing downhill
and is able to kind of square
1194
01:10:15,800 --> 01:10:18,900
guys up.
When you talk about the
1195
01:10:18,900 --> 01:10:23,300
inconsistency in coverage, is
it, is it just the eyes are the
1196
01:10:23,300 --> 01:10:25,000
odds?
Is it just looks like the heads
1197
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:29,400
going everywhere versus, you
know, focus on one thing we see
1198
01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:31,900
when I hear you say
inconsistent, the first thing I
1199
01:10:31,907 --> 01:10:34,900
think of is he's not looking at
the quarterback.
1200
01:10:34,900 --> 01:10:37,500
He's looking at the Players
moving around him.
1201
01:10:37,500 --> 01:10:40,500
We're when you're in zone, it's
like look where the quarterback
1202
01:10:40,500 --> 01:10:45,000
is, if a guy crosses you that's
fine, but you still shouldn't be
1203
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:46,400
there.
Because if you're looking at
1204
01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:48,800
him, He comes back across the
field.
1205
01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:50,900
Well, you're going to be a half
a second leg.
1206
01:10:50,900 --> 01:10:52,400
You're not even gonna be in the
play.
1207
01:10:52,900 --> 01:10:55,500
Yeah, it looks like he's
thinking too much.
1208
01:10:55,900 --> 01:10:59,100
A lot of times when he's in that
kind of true Zone, when he's
1209
01:10:59,100 --> 01:11:02,900
able to kind of see everything
in front of him and just react
1210
01:11:02,900 --> 01:11:05,700
to it a lot better.
Nice.
1211
01:11:05,700 --> 01:11:09,500
So nice kind of what it is.
Alright now let's flip to the
1212
01:11:09,508 --> 01:11:11,300
next Jack.
As I said there were he has 70
1213
01:11:11,300 --> 01:11:12,900
tackles?
You know, that's average antenna
1214
01:11:12,900 --> 01:11:15,500
game.
I need a lot.
1215
01:11:15,900 --> 01:11:21,000
Number two linebacker.
R63 233 pounds out of Olney,
1216
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:26,400
Maryland, 82.
Tackles three and a half sacks.
1217
01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:29,400
Three forced fumbles, just last
week against FSU.
1218
01:11:29,400 --> 01:11:33,600
He had 11 tackles.
So, it's been consistent all
1219
01:11:33,600 --> 01:11:36,900
year.
When he came back out in 2017.
1220
01:11:36,900 --> 01:11:42,500
He was recruited to Maryland.
He did not come originally to
1221
01:11:42,500 --> 01:11:45,200
Georgia Tech.
So, he was a transfer from
1222
01:11:45,200 --> 01:11:50,200
Maryland and he was a Our had a
good you know you take a look at
1223
01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:52,800
his list.
We did show some interest in him
1224
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:54,900
being up at Good Counsel.
It's a pretty good high school
1225
01:11:54,900 --> 01:11:58,700
command but a lot of good looks
for him back.
1226
01:11:58,700 --> 01:12:05,900
Then what's the tape showing?
You know, the statistics say it
1227
01:12:06,200 --> 01:12:11,000
is he their best player on
defense or Yeah, best overall
1228
01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:16,900
player on defense, he plays the
Mac position which is the mic in
1229
01:12:16,900 --> 01:12:19,600
the defense.
He's got good length, plays
1230
01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:21,400
fast, especially when he's
blitzing.
1231
01:12:22,100 --> 01:12:25,600
He does a good job of reading
the play and attacking his Gap.
1232
01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:29,600
Good tackler, especially at the
point of attack, when he's kind
1233
01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:33,500
of between the tackles, they're
not bad in coverage, but he does
1234
01:12:33,500 --> 01:12:37,200
struggle struggle when covering
kind of athletic players like a
1235
01:12:37,200 --> 01:12:39,100
joke or tight in or wide
receiver.
1236
01:12:40,100 --> 01:12:42,500
And he does that sometimes
struggle to shed block.
1237
01:12:42,500 --> 01:12:44,400
So that's kind of.
If we can get him tied up in the
1238
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:47,900
in the middle there we can kind
of neutralize them a little bit.
1239
01:12:48,300 --> 01:12:50,800
So I hear you say that.
That fourth statement there
1240
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:53,400
about covering athletic tight
ends, do you think this is a
1241
01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:58,500
game where Gallo should be at H
put right on that kind of that
1242
01:12:58,500 --> 01:13:01,000
Wing back and force him to
cover.
1243
01:13:02,300 --> 01:13:06,000
Yeah, I would, I would put him
in as much force position as we
1244
01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:10,200
can where he's got to do stuff
in space and cover in space and
1245
01:13:10,600 --> 01:13:12,900
make them run.
Make him run as much as
1246
01:13:12,900 --> 01:13:14,700
possible.
Alrighty.
1247
01:13:14,800 --> 01:13:18,400
Alrighty, let's flip it.
One last player on the defensive
1248
01:13:18,400 --> 01:13:22,500
side of the ball and that is Le
Mi Brooks the defensive back.
1249
01:13:22,900 --> 01:13:30,600
Le miles from Trinity Christian
Academy that name has a afford,
1250
01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:31,900
some other good players from
down.
1251
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:36,500
There he is the class of 2020.
Yes he did get a Virginia Tech
1252
01:13:36,500 --> 01:13:39,000
offer.
No, he did not commit and he was
1253
01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:44,900
a pretty highly rated player for
Star composite cop. 260 player
1254
01:13:44,900 --> 01:13:48,500
nationally a top 20 quarter pipe
50 in Florida.
1255
01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:55,300
We actually were a favorite tool
and him back in 2020 and
1256
01:13:55,300 --> 01:13:59,500
obviously we missed their know.
We weren't no you weren't that.
1257
01:13:59,500 --> 01:14:05,200
We had badly 2020 class man.
Back to haunt us still still so
1258
01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:09,500
far this season, I love the stat
line from to be a defensive
1259
01:14:09,500 --> 01:14:12,000
back.
Thirty three, tackles two
1260
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:15,300
interceptions and five past
deflected.
1261
01:14:15,300 --> 01:14:19,800
So he has been around the ball a
lot this year and also had a
1262
01:14:19,808 --> 01:14:22,500
fumble recovery.
So clearly a nose for the ball.
1263
01:14:23,700 --> 01:14:27,400
What's what?
Smile showing in the secondary
1264
01:14:28,700 --> 01:14:30,700
Yeah, so you play safety for
this team.
1265
01:14:31,000 --> 01:14:33,200
He's probably the best playmaker
in their secondary.
1266
01:14:33,900 --> 01:14:35,700
Really great.
In pursued, making them feel
1267
01:14:35,700 --> 01:14:38,600
tackles finish his plays.
Well, when he has spill area
1268
01:14:38,600 --> 01:14:43,600
responsibilities, he's good but
occasionally sloppy with those
1269
01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:48,500
run fits so that's something
that we can potentially exploit.
1270
01:14:48,900 --> 01:14:52,600
He's also good coverage but he
can be exposed in one-on-one.
1271
01:14:52,600 --> 01:14:54,700
He's very much better when he's
in the zone.
1272
01:14:56,400 --> 01:14:57,900
All right, let's flip it over
now.
1273
01:14:57,900 --> 01:14:59,800
Brian.
Let's talk about this scheme.
1274
01:14:59,800 --> 01:15:03,000
Obviously you mentioned
something we were familiar with,
1275
01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:07,200
so I'm going to assume 425 425
but they do.
1276
01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:09,700
They are multiple so you'll see
them kind of mix-and-match
1277
01:15:09,700 --> 01:15:13,000
fronts.
They use that kind of standing D
1278
01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:15,300
in.
It's kind of a hybrid player
1279
01:15:15,300 --> 01:15:18,700
that they'll slide into a backer
position and then slide there
1280
01:15:18,700 --> 01:15:21,900
Sam kind of into more true
nickel.
1281
01:15:21,900 --> 01:15:26,600
So they kind of morph a little
bit into a little bit of a 33
1282
01:15:26,600 --> 01:15:30,200
little bit of a Or kind of
depending on what they need, but
1283
01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:35,700
they are a base for 25 and they
try to switch up those fronts to
1284
01:15:35,700 --> 01:15:38,600
create confusion to create
matchups, that work for them.
1285
01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:43,000
They bring pressure fairly
regularly, usually kind of Zone
1286
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:45,400
Blitz in the early parts of a
drive.
1287
01:15:45,400 --> 01:15:48,100
They'll go more man Blitz as
they kind of get pushed further
1288
01:15:48,100 --> 01:15:52,500
into their own territory.
They force a decent amount of
1289
01:15:52,500 --> 01:15:57,300
turnovers usually off pressure,
and they're very much kind of a
1290
01:15:57,308 --> 01:15:58,800
Bend don't break for.
Safiye.
1291
01:15:59,700 --> 01:16:03,100
You can score on them, but
they're going to try to hold you
1292
01:16:03,100 --> 01:16:05,000
two, three.
All right.
1293
01:16:05,300 --> 01:16:08,000
Well you mentioned the force
turnovers off pressure.
1294
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:10,900
Let's go to the Hokies in the
first thing we can talk about,
1295
01:16:10,900 --> 01:16:15,500
is their turnover margin.
They are a top five team in the
1296
01:16:15,500 --> 01:16:17,800
country in turnover margin with
plus 12.
1297
01:16:19,300 --> 01:16:22,300
Not a lot of plus 12 teams are
three and five.
1298
01:16:22,300 --> 01:16:26,700
So I got nerdy and just started
looking at the game films and in
1299
01:16:26,700 --> 01:16:33,400
their three wins their plus 7.
So clearly in those wins, you
1300
01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:37,900
know, They turn the ball over
and that was against Western
1301
01:16:37,900 --> 01:16:45,300
Carolina.
Oh man, Duke I had Duke 23:10 in
1302
01:16:45,300 --> 01:16:49,500
pit, so they forced a lot of
turnovers in those three games.
1303
01:16:49,500 --> 01:16:53,500
So in the five losses though,
they still created Five
1304
01:16:53,500 --> 01:16:54,900
turnovers.
That's a turnover game.
1305
01:16:54,900 --> 01:16:59,400
So I dug a little deeper.
They forced to against UVA and
1306
01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:03,100
they lost by a touchdown.
They had one in a blowout loss
1307
01:17:03,100 --> 01:17:07,600
to Ole Miss and they Two against
FSU who also blew the doors off
1308
01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:11,100
of them.
And the other two losses, it was
1309
01:17:11,100 --> 01:17:15,500
an even battle.
So in three of their losses,
1310
01:17:15,600 --> 01:17:22,300
they were +5 and they got
outscored by like Almost 100,
1311
01:17:24,100 --> 01:17:26,100
they have to force turnovers to
win games.
1312
01:17:26,100 --> 01:17:27,700
That's clear.
Yeah.
1313
01:17:27,700 --> 01:17:30,100
Maybe force turnovers to be
competitive.
1314
01:17:30,100 --> 01:17:32,800
Be competitive.
It even when they force a bunch
1315
01:17:32,900 --> 01:17:36,100
UVA, it bores to turn over
against that.
1316
01:17:36,100 --> 01:17:39,300
Bad offense, came up with seven
points against not, a really
1317
01:17:39,300 --> 01:17:42,600
good defense even when they
forced a can lose.
1318
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:46,300
So I sit here Brian and I ask
you, I think we just have to be
1319
01:17:46,300 --> 01:17:50,100
aggressive because what they've
shown is even when they forced
1320
01:17:50,100 --> 01:17:53,200
turnovers I don't do a hell of a
lot with it.
1321
01:17:54,400 --> 01:17:57,400
Yeah, we definitely can't revert
into a shell, every if we make a
1322
01:17:57,400 --> 01:18:01,100
mistake, we got to keep being
aggressive, pushing the ball
1323
01:18:01,100 --> 01:18:05,000
downfield, keep them on edge
because I mean they show against
1324
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:08,600
FSU.
They had essentially a six-point
1325
01:18:08,600 --> 01:18:12,000
turn around on one play where
they forced a fumble with FSU
1326
01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:15,600
inside the, their 5-yard line
and they ran it back to like the
1327
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:18,300
22, yard line and only got three
out of it.
1328
01:18:18,300 --> 01:18:21,600
And they had another turnover
later and later in that same
1329
01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:25,300
quarter, FSU had two turnovers
early, Laying was winning the
1330
01:18:25,300 --> 01:18:27,700
whole game.
I mean, this isn't, this isn't
1331
01:18:27,700 --> 01:18:30,800
something where, you know, they
do a whole lot with those
1332
01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:34,300
turnovers.
So if if it happens, Don't
1333
01:18:34,300 --> 01:18:36,700
Panic.
Stay aggressive on offense.
1334
01:18:36,800 --> 01:18:40,600
Stay aggressive on defense.
Don't let that Sudden Change
1335
01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:45,800
become six points.
That's it, but it's also
1336
01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:49,600
difficult them to score points
and that's where I go to the
1337
01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:51,700
next key is it's going to be our
defense General.
1338
01:18:52,900 --> 01:18:56,500
This defense is This is 118th in
the country, they are not a good
1339
01:18:56,500 --> 01:18:58,800
offense, their 125th and score
there.
1340
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:04,100
Below us in scoring Which says a
lot not good Bob.
1341
01:19:04,400 --> 01:19:07,800
I mean, even in their three
wins, the offense has not been
1342
01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:11,800
good at all and their biggest
scoring output was 26 versus
1343
01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:15,000
pit.
So you talk about a defense Get
1344
01:19:15,000 --> 01:19:17,300
Right game.
We look good for three quarters.
1345
01:19:17,300 --> 01:19:19,600
Last week let's bring it for
quarters.
1346
01:19:19,800 --> 01:19:23,900
Like this team like we did
against BC and keep them under
1347
01:19:23,900 --> 01:19:25,800
two touchdowns.
Yep.
1348
01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:29,700
Yeah and the big thing is
slowing that run down if we can
1349
01:19:29,700 --> 01:19:32,200
slow that run down there.
Not going to be a team that can
1350
01:19:32,200 --> 01:19:34,900
do anything offensively.
So we'll see.
1351
01:19:35,300 --> 01:19:38,200
Speaking of Run games, I think
the Hokies Run game is going to
1352
01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:41,000
be a geeky, said it in the Press
today.
1353
01:19:41,000 --> 01:19:46,600
Malachi's doubtful, which gives
me a sliver of Hope, but also
1354
01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:48,400
gives me a sliver of Hope to
that.
1355
01:19:48,500 --> 01:19:53,700
He won't play until he's ready
and good news back.
1356
01:19:53,700 --> 01:19:57,200
He Shaun King probable, so would
likely going to see him probably
1357
01:19:57,200 --> 01:20:00,700
the combination of Holsten and
Duke but Georgia.
1358
01:20:00,900 --> 01:20:03,000
Tech.
I mean I look back at the UNC
1359
01:20:03,000 --> 01:20:06,700
game and talked about them being
a bad offense.
1360
01:20:07,000 --> 01:20:11,200
As far as rushing, the ball
Georgia Tech 101 this year,
1361
01:20:11,200 --> 01:20:16,000
giving up over 177 yards a game.
So I think between the
1362
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:21,300
combination of Wells King
Holston and Duke, I want to see
1363
01:20:21,300 --> 01:20:25,600
at least 130 to 140 yards on 30
to 35 carries.
1364
01:20:25,600 --> 01:20:30,200
A fellow made me feel better but
maybe three-and-a-half is where
1365
01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:34,000
I should be happy.
Per attempt, we got to do better
1366
01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:37,100
than we did last week and I know
this is the way.
1367
01:20:37,100 --> 01:20:41,000
This is a big step down in terms
of front and in terms of
1368
01:20:41,008 --> 01:20:46,000
linebacker play overall.
And that's not knocking the two
1369
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:47,100
guys.
I mean, I think they're probably
1370
01:20:47,100 --> 01:20:51,200
two of the better players on
this defense but we were looking
1371
01:20:51,200 --> 01:20:55,300
at three NFL caliber linebackers
last week.
1372
01:20:55,300 --> 01:20:59,100
We were and some solid players
in that front.
1373
01:20:59,100 --> 01:21:02,300
You know, we rang Not getting
that this week.
1374
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:09,200
Now the this is a big step down.
We should see better this week
1375
01:21:09,200 --> 01:21:12,800
in the running game.
So if we if we can get like you
1376
01:21:12,800 --> 01:21:16,100
said, I think 135 would be a
good number 140.
1377
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:22,900
If we get above 150 great but we
can get around that 135 140
1378
01:21:22,900 --> 01:21:27,000
range at or just above three and
a half a Kerry.
1379
01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:29,100
I think that'll be effective
enough especially for being
1380
01:21:29,100 --> 01:21:30,800
aggressive and pushing the ball
downfield.
1381
01:21:30,900 --> 01:21:32,900
The passing game
abso-freakin'-lutely.
1382
01:21:35,200 --> 01:21:38,700
Let's go back and talk about
what we talked about earlier.
1383
01:21:39,900 --> 01:21:43,100
The biggest key to this game and
hopefully growing some
1384
01:21:43,100 --> 01:21:47,100
confidence with this team is
we've got a string, the multiple
1385
01:21:47,100 --> 01:21:51,300
quarters of productive football
across all elements.
1386
01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:56,100
Yep, it's what we're missing it.
I mean we can attest to it and
1387
01:21:56,100 --> 01:22:01,300
probably say, if you Street a
couple extra quarters in pit in
1388
01:22:01,300 --> 01:22:05,000
Miami and one more quarter in NC
State.
1389
01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:09,500
It's three wins versus three
losses, two teams, five and two.
1390
01:22:10,100 --> 01:22:11,400
Yep.
And and that's it.
1391
01:22:11,400 --> 01:22:14,300
Let's look at let's look at NC
State and head too bad.
1392
01:22:14,300 --> 01:22:17,700
Quarters of special teams play.
Get two and a half.
1393
01:22:17,700 --> 01:22:20,900
Bad quarters of offense and we
had one bad quarter defense.
1394
01:22:21,100 --> 01:22:24,700
Yeah.
And All Canes at separate points
1395
01:22:24,700 --> 01:22:26,300
during the game.
Yep.
1396
01:22:26,700 --> 01:22:29,000
Offense early.
When the defense was humming
1397
01:22:29,800 --> 01:22:32,700
defense and offense Lady,
Heather in the third quarter.
1398
01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:37,700
You know, you outscored team
21-7, that's big, that's what
1399
01:22:37,700 --> 01:22:39,900
you want, every quarter, and
then the Special Teams, you
1400
01:22:39,900 --> 01:22:43,700
know, I think it was first and
fourth one is good but it's just
1401
01:22:43,700 --> 01:22:47,600
stinging the string and the
quarters together because that
1402
01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:49,600
builds momentum that builds
confidence.
1403
01:22:49,600 --> 01:22:54,800
You see guys play better and I
think a team like this that
1404
01:22:54,900 --> 01:23:00,400
don't do not have the Firepower
to hit you back quick.
1405
01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:03,700
It's kind of what the Hokies
need and Brian, let's flip it.
1406
01:23:03,900 --> 01:23:06,300
Over and let's talk about
predictions on this game.
1407
01:23:06,300 --> 01:23:09,000
And unfortunately, for me and
you for a while.
1408
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:12,000
Now we've been going against the
Hokies.
1409
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:15,300
And you know what's your feels
this week?
1410
01:23:16,500 --> 01:23:19,400
Well, I'm not going against the
Hokies this weekend.
1411
01:23:20,900 --> 01:23:25,200
I've got an actual repeat of
last year's final score.
1412
01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:28,600
All right.
I think that we're going to be
1413
01:23:28,600 --> 01:23:31,800
effective driving the football.
I think we probably don't close
1414
01:23:31,800 --> 01:23:35,700
as many drives as we'd like to,
but we're effective enough
1415
01:23:35,700 --> 01:23:37,800
moving the football against this
defense.
1416
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:44,200
I think we give up a couple
scores to them but then we kind
1417
01:23:44,200 --> 01:23:48,700
of settle in and we finish this
off.
1418
01:23:49,100 --> 01:23:54,700
I've got 26.
Toki's and I'm not far behind
1419
01:23:54,700 --> 01:23:58,000
you because I do hope that we
can continue our streak of
1420
01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:01,700
picking these games correctly.
I'm going a little less than you
1421
01:24:01,700 --> 01:24:04,500
on both sides.
I think it's 2410.
1422
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:10,300
Hokies I think what we saw last
week with that defense, NC state
1423
01:24:10,300 --> 01:24:12,300
has some play makers.
We talked about that.
1424
01:24:12,300 --> 01:24:13,900
They were missing the
quarterback and I think what
1425
01:24:13,900 --> 01:24:16,900
they found last week was likely
the guys going to succeed leery
1426
01:24:16,900 --> 01:24:21,900
when he steps away.
And I really think defensively,
1427
01:24:21,900 --> 01:24:25,000
I can't see watching Georgia
Tech a few times this year.
1428
01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:28,000
They just looked pitiful
offensively and with no real
1429
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:32,200
threat of a passing game.
I think Brent pry probably can
1430
01:24:32,200 --> 01:24:33,700
feel comfortable playing some
guys.
1431
01:24:33,700 --> 01:24:37,800
He may not be as comfortable
with and I think we pull the W
1432
01:24:38,300 --> 01:24:41,800
and I think it's going to It's
going to feel nice on Saturday
1433
01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:47,900
afternoon, As we sit down and
crack a game for our big
1434
01:24:47,900 --> 01:24:50,200
screener.
We're not picking separate games
1435
01:24:50,200 --> 01:24:54,900
this week, there is only one
game in the AP, they're 12 and
1436
01:24:54,900 --> 01:24:59,100
the cfp they're 13 and that's
Georgia versus Tennessee and
1437
01:24:59,100 --> 01:25:04,400
that's obviously hidden hooker,
Georgia is 8 point favorite down
1438
01:25:04,400 --> 01:25:08,400
in Athens between the hedges,
the over-under is 66.
1439
01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:12,400
And this has been one, I've been
just thinking about sitting at
1440
01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:17,000
the baseball game, even thinking
about it umpire was a has a son
1441
01:25:17,100 --> 01:25:20,500
that Tech fan.
We're not technically a text
1442
01:25:20,500 --> 01:25:25,700
using the senior up there and I
think what I'm going to have to
1443
01:25:25,700 --> 01:25:31,400
say is I think I'm going to take
Tennessee to win the game
1444
01:25:31,400 --> 01:25:35,600
outright and I am going to go
over the 66.
1445
01:25:36,800 --> 01:25:40,500
Okay, thank what I'm kind of
feeling in this situation.
1446
01:25:40,500 --> 01:25:47,300
Is something like a 3833 game
where it's going to be a war.
1447
01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:52,500
But let me get your, let me get
your predictions first.
1448
01:25:52,500 --> 01:25:54,900
And then, let's I want to kind
of hit what we talked about
1449
01:25:54,900 --> 01:25:58,300
earlier about this game.
Okay?
1450
01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:08,500
Okay, I'm going to go 34-31, I'm
taking Tennessee to win outright
1451
01:26:09,200 --> 01:26:11,900
and then the under just barely
hits.
1452
01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:17,000
You're gonna be sweating that if
it really, is their 34 late.
1453
01:26:17,600 --> 01:26:20,900
But let's talk about what we
Talked about Brian.
1454
01:26:21,300 --> 01:26:23,600
We were discussing this game
because we talked about this
1455
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:30,200
game for 15 minutes a day.
And I said to you, If Tennessee
1456
01:26:30,200 --> 01:26:37,200
gets up two scores, early.
Do you have the confidence that
1457
01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:47,700
Georgia can fire power back?
I think they can, but it's it's
1458
01:26:47,700 --> 01:26:49,400
not, it's not a sure thing,
right?
1459
01:26:49,400 --> 01:26:53,700
Because we've seen up and down,
ability in that area.
1460
01:26:53,700 --> 01:26:55,600
Kent State.
Yeah.
1461
01:26:55,600 --> 01:27:01,600
So, you know, it's really hard
to say, you know, are there, do
1462
01:27:01,600 --> 01:27:04,300
they have that in them, you
know, when we look at the, we
1463
01:27:04,300 --> 01:27:08,000
were talking about taking out
the outliers earlier and Kent
1464
01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:10,100
State's kind of the kind of one
of the outliers.
1465
01:27:10,100 --> 01:27:15,300
Therefore, for George, And we
said Mizzou is the big outlier.
1466
01:27:15,300 --> 01:27:17,100
Yeah.
Mizzou is the other outlier
1467
01:27:17,100 --> 01:27:20,200
there because if I got Georgia,
pains, listen to this.
1468
01:27:20,200 --> 01:27:22,300
Y'all were saved by the rest at
night.
1469
01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:25,500
There were some penalties that
happen that if the flag had been
1470
01:27:25,500 --> 01:27:28,300
thrown a couple extra scores
wouldn't happen in Georgia,
1471
01:27:28,300 --> 01:27:30,000
would be a one-loss team right
now.
1472
01:27:31,100 --> 01:27:33,900
That's my opinion.
Yeah, when you're, when you're
1473
01:27:33,900 --> 01:27:36,700
right, when you're right tackle,
clearly false starts on Third
1474
01:27:36,700 --> 01:27:39,200
and goal and you get a touchdown
from it.
1475
01:27:41,100 --> 01:27:42,700
That helps out with a 4-point
game.
1476
01:27:43,500 --> 01:27:46,200
Big time.
But we mentioned it the other
1477
01:27:46,200 --> 01:27:49,300
way because I think if Georgia
gets up early, I think
1478
01:27:49,300 --> 01:27:54,800
Tennessee's got they are running
so vertical, they are so
1479
01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:56,500
attacking them filled with hypos
offense.
1480
01:27:56,500 --> 01:27:59,100
If they get down early, I think
they're just going to keep
1481
01:27:59,100 --> 01:28:02,700
swinging.
It keeps swinging it and I think
1482
01:28:02,700 --> 01:28:05,900
to a point where we've seen come
times with Kirby Smart he'll get
1483
01:28:05,900 --> 01:28:08,100
into those man's.
He wants to play man.
1484
01:28:08,100 --> 01:28:09,900
He wants to be aggressive up
front.
1485
01:28:11,700 --> 01:28:16,200
He hadn't quite bone X and quite
henin hooker and I think the
1486
01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:19,000
wide receiver core at
Tennessee's a little bit better.
1487
01:28:19,300 --> 01:28:22,900
But you know, I think it's gonna
be a hell of a game.
1488
01:28:23,000 --> 01:28:24,400
I think it's gonna be a fun to
watch.
1489
01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:27,200
Thank God, too hokey game will
be over so we can enjoy it.
1490
01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:29,200
Yeah.
Versus you've been keeping
1491
01:28:29,200 --> 01:28:31,700
looking on our other one here.
All right.
1492
01:28:31,700 --> 01:28:33,200
Yeah.
I think I think when you see
1493
01:28:33,200 --> 01:28:36,800
that, I think they're if Georgia
wants to pull it out, I feel
1494
01:28:36,800 --> 01:28:39,600
like George is going to have to
get to Hendon consistently.
1495
01:28:40,300 --> 01:28:41,900
That's going to be the only way
that they're going to pull it
1496
01:28:41,900 --> 01:28:44,900
out and if they're doing that
and they miss him there's gonna
1497
01:28:44,900 --> 01:28:49,200
be a lot of space for him to run
and we know that he can run.
1498
01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:56,200
All right, big man, has anything
broken, almost eleven twenty on.
1499
01:28:58,400 --> 01:29:03,200
Tuesday night, 90 minutes on the
dot here. 90 minutes on the dot.
1500
01:29:03,200 --> 01:29:07,900
We did, it baseball game is.

1502
01:29:13,500 --> 01:29:19,000
Got shut out seven new.
Ouch, ouch couldn't happen to a
1503
01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:22,900
better team.
Oh, and don't let Doug here that
1504
01:29:23,600 --> 01:29:27,100
don't like when you got.
We got a braised fan kind of.
1505
01:29:27,300 --> 01:29:30,000
Pulling for the Phillies, you
know, it's some foul shit.
1506
