Know the Enemy: Louisville

The Hokies are riding their first winning streak of the year and sit nicely in the conference standings after a blowout win at home against Syracuse. But no time to get comfortable as a trip to Louisville to face the #15 Cardinals looms this weekend. The Hokies need a win to remain in control of their own destiny.

1
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:58,960
Music.
Expected to be the board.

2
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:06,680
Another third in law.
More pressure down, goes

3
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:20,560
Schrader.
Schrader sacked Antoine Powell

4
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,200
Ryland.
Virgos and they're rotating.

5
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,440
The guys in you got pain.
They're all making plays.

6
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:32,640
Everybody's making plays. 3rd
and 12 Schrader sacked Kendricks

7
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:40,840
again.
Schrader out of the end zone.

8
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:49,960
Here comes the pressure.
Schrader safety that is Antoine

9
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,160
Powell Ryland and Cole Nelson
was straying the frame.

10
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,680
Beamer 25.
Big punt last week to get the

11
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,760
25.
We saw Coach Beamer at halftime

12
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:04,400
up here, watching his Hokies.
Fired up, proud to see the 25

13
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,320
jersey and they have no answer
for APR.

14
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:13,400
Antoine Powell.
Ryland Schrader Sacks.

15
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:20,080
Pollard.
Again, 7th sack of the night.

16
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,600
Non conference games.
But conference games are what's

17
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,640
important.
And they have, they're peaking

18
00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:26,080
at the right time.
They peaked.

19
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,400
Tonight, defensively, that is
sack #8.

20
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,120
I think they're going to be in
first place alone after this

21
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,840
week.
And welcome back to the Boundary

29
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:03,880
sacks.
Boys are y'all in the spirit for

30
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,880
tomorrow night or what?
Let's get it, man.

31
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:08,920
Oh, yeah.
We ready.

32
00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:11,440
We ready to get it, man.
Ready to go.

33
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,520
I actually got a basketball game
to go to so I won't be doing no

34
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,840
trick or treating.
My son's got a game at 7:00, so

35
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:19,960
we'll be at the.
We'll be at the school.

36
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,400
You know what I got?
I got the, I got the wood ready.

37
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,760
I'm going to have a fire going.
We got the we got some friends

38
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:28,320
coming over.
It's going to be a nice little

39
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,840
night.
Kids are going to go out and

40
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,360
roll about 8 or 9 deep through
the neighborhood.

41
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,080
There you go.
There you go.

42
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,400
Similar thing over here.
We're getting up, doing a big

43
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:45,480
dinner, maybe in the cul-de-sac
Brown, probably in my garage

44
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:50,280
because it's going to be cold
here tomorrow night, you know.

45
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,840
Good evening, Lavar.
How you doing tonight?

46
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:58,480
He likes to mask boys, but same.
And then going around the

47
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,320
neighborhood getting my kids a
bunch of candy that they don't

48
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,960
have any business eating.
So I'm going to steal it all.

49
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,640
But y'all is having fun tonight.
It is.

50
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:14,520
This is going to be a fun show
tonight because not only is it

51
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,160
the day before Halloween, we are
a day early, but between

52
00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,519
basketball, kids, trick or
treating a bunch of other stuff,

53
00:04:20,519 --> 00:04:22,680
we had to come out.
Because we couldn't get up

54
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,920
together Wednesday, Shelton not
with us on the night.

55
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,040
He is on the injured reserve
this week a little under the

56
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,920
weather.
Hope we get hope you get better

57
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:34,440
out there, Shelton.
But boys, we got to talk about

58
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,800
tell the truth Tuesday about the
Syracuse game.

59
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,800
We got to know the enemy in
Louisville and we got a couple

60
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,440
news as things we got to share.
One that broke.

61
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,720
Not broke today, but it was
announced today.

62
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:54,280
LeBron, raise your mask, Sir.
Because it ain't no way, Ain't

63
00:04:54,280 --> 00:04:57,640
no way.
It's a good question.

64
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:58,720
Is it going to be a trick or
treat?

65
00:04:58,720 --> 00:04:59,720
We don't know.
You will.

66
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,680
Find out what you think.
Brian, ain't no way you could go

67
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,440
more than 15 minutes with that
mask on without sweating like 6

68
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:08,640
pounds.
You know what?

69
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,240
I I would have given him a run.
We gave him a run.

70
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:12,320
We'll have to see what happens,
man.

71
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,760
There we go, A lot of people
joining us tonight.

72
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,000
We appreciate all the love.
But before we get in to tell the

73
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,360
truth Tuesday on a Monday, let's
talk about a couple music notes.

74
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,440
Let's talk about basketball
first, because a big thing broke

75
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,080
since we last came with Y'all
last Sunday, and that was Rodney

76
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,520
Rice stepping away from the
basketball program.

77
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,320
Rodney Rice, one of the highest
rated recruits ever in his games

78
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,040
last year to look solid at
times, was expected to take a

79
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,240
big step.
I know we're in the middle of

80
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,360
football season.
Basketball's not too far away,

81
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,040
but say what you say.
Regardless, it's a big loss for

82
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,800
the team.
Yeah, definitely, definitely a

83
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,200
big loss, man.
I mean I guess on the, I don't

84
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:57,800
want to say on the positive side
of it, he never we we never got

85
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,920
to see what all he could do.
So it's not like we had an

86
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,680
opportunity to build a team
around him.

87
00:06:05,280 --> 00:06:09,600
So sometimes you can't really
miss what you never had.

88
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:13,080
But on the other hand, it's like
kid has so much potential.

89
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,760
And we feel like he was going to
be such a big part of the team.

90
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:21,440
It's like, yeah, it's a it's a
it's horrible and it's right

91
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,040
before the season starts.
So yeah, and it it's a guy that

92
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:29,240
we saw in parts of the season
last year, all right.

93
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,040
So he can shoot the three but he
can also get to the get to the

94
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,800
rack too and we haven't really
seen that or had that in a

95
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:40,200
little bit.
So really since Boots was here.

96
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,200
So having a player like that,
that that has that piece to

97
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:47,080
their game I think would have
been important even if from a

98
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,800
consistency standpoint it sounds
like MJ has kind of stepped up

99
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:54,160
and and and and taking on a
little bit more of a a

100
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,040
leadership role.
And that's why there was some

101
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,600
looks like some questions there
about who the starter was going

102
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,720
to be at that spot.
Well, it it it's also

103
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,920
interesting the guy that
recruited him is at Maryland

104
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,400
now.
As far as him stepping away, I'm

105
00:07:07,280 --> 00:07:09,760
he screwed himself this year.
There is no portal.

106
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,640
The portal for basketball is not
until May, so he he can go and

107
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,400
roll somewhere else.
He cannot be on Team A-Team or

108
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:22,000
anything like that.
So he's effectively taking a

109
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,600
year off of basketball.
And for a guy who was banged

110
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,840
last year and didn't get to play
a lot, it's going to be

111
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,120
interesting to see where he
lands.

112
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,000
Brian, what you said is what I
believe is the biggest part.

113
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:33,760
We know he could take it off the
dribble.

114
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,320
And how many times last y'all
last year y'all we were sitting

115
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,640
there?
And we were always just kind of

116
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,560
screaming.
We just need somebody to just we

117
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:46,440
we need to break this three
minute spell of not scoring and

118
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,800
somebody just take one to the
hoop, get a layup, get a foul

119
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,760
something.
And he was going to be that guy.

120
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,160
And you know, unfortunately it
is what it is.

121
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,280
We move forward.
It's going to be interesting to

122
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,680
see how that season goes.
All right, next one.

123
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,560
And this was something that was
announced a couple weeks ago,

124
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,240
revealed tonight on ACC Network
Six to seven.

125
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,040
I was trying to watch it, but we
were eating dinner.

126
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:16,520
Shout out David Cunningham.
That man is a lifesaver for all

127
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,680
the tweets he puts out.
But the ACC schedule, because of

128
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:25,560
the additions of Stanford Cal
and SMU effectively had changed.

129
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,480
And I think we as Hokie fans,
when we started looking at it,

130
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,120
boys, it did not change for the
better.

131
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,480
I mean what we wanted.
I feel like we got as fans.

132
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:42,960
I mean whenever we changed up,
we took some, took a rivalry

133
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:47,040
rivalry away that I think
everybody was looking forward

134
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:48,120
to.
You know, you can say what you

135
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,440
want, but anytime Virginia
taking Miami plays, I think it's

136
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:56,320
a we might not win all of them,
but it's always a good time and

137
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,560
that's been a long standing
rivalry and when they took it

138
00:08:58,560 --> 00:09:00,760
away.
I think a lot of people were,

139
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:02,320
you know, a little upset about
that.

140
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,600
So when you look on the schedule
and you see them back on there

141
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,040
and they say, hey, this is going
to be one of your permanent

142
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,960
opponents, like it just makes
for good football.

143
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:16,240
So hell, we if you want to be
the best, you got to go beat the

144
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,120
good team.
So don't matter who's on that

145
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:21,080
schedule, good team, bad team,
whatever kind of season they're

146
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,080
having, we just got to go win
because if we keep building on

147
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:25,320
what we got, we'll be a good
team.

148
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,640
Exactly.
And I mean, you love getting

149
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:33,840
Miami back, You love not seeing
BC on the schedule every year.

150
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,120
Thank God that's a that's a 1-2
punch that you that you're happy

151
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,320
to see.
You only have to travel to the

152
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,440
Carrier Dome once every five
years, yeah?

153
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:48,760
And the truth about that So it
doesn't get much better than

154
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,720
that.
It doesn't and it's important if

155
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,480
you take a look because
something I was looking at is

156
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,560
not everybody got the same
amount of rivalry games.

157
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,720
Some got 3, some got 2, some got
one, some got none.

158
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,320
But I think if you start looking
at it is the focus is the games

159
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:05,120
that can draw, right?
Yeah.

160
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,400
Miami, Virginia Tech, Wherever
it is, it normally draws,

161
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:13,640
whether it's Thursday night and
a 3:30 late night game, it

162
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,640
draws.
FSU is playing Miami, FSU is

163
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,320
playing Clemson.
That's going draw.

164
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,320
If you kind of look at that,
that's the way they've kind of

165
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,160
set it up.
But they've also made sure that

166
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,480
certain corridors are together.
The far NE is together.

167
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,840
The Western teams are together,
that makes sense, but they kept

168
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,720
it to 8 out.
I think Brian, you were probably

169
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,680
more disappointed than me than
us.

170
00:10:35,680 --> 00:10:38,640
I wanted to go to 9.
You were banging the table for

171
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,160
9, which would make more sense,
but you know we're staying at

172
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:46,720
eight games, so is what it is
there.

173
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,640
Yeah, shout out Sheldon saying
we have to have even number of

174
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,040
teams in the conference to move
to 9.

175
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:56,920
So we're we're still one one
edition short here of of being

176
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,640
able to put 9 games on the table
for the ACC slate.

177
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,760
All righty Well let's take a
look we So as we got the

178
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,880
schedule up here again, this is
coming.

179
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,480
I think we I pulled this from
David Cunningham's account.

180
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,120
Shout out David guy's been on
with us numerous times.

181
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,280
Look at some of the intriguing
home games.

182
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,840
First of all, I told you all
today, I'm like they taking

183
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,000
Clemson from us.
They going to put Clemson and

184
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,680
give us like SMU at home?
Right.

185
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,280
We did not lose Clemson next
year and I think that's really

186
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:30,360
big for the fan base because
that's one of those, regardless

187
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,520
whether what Clemson is their
form for this year, if they're

188
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,520
undefeated when they come to
Lane next year, that is going to

189
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,160
be a prime game.
Yeah.

190
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,840
What else intrigues Y'all as
Y'all, take a look at this of

191
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,800
the schedule for roughly the
next seven years.

192
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,280
Well, I don't know, a little bit
of what I don't want to say.

193
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,320
Well, y'all fucking made me mad.
Kind of what me and you talked

194
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,720
about Curtis, like Florida
State, us having to play them

195
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,080
again and go to their house
before they come to our house

196
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,600
and then we don't, they don't
come to Lane until 2028.

197
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,360
Like that's a little bit of a
headache to me.

198
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:05,840
Like I don't like that part of
it.

199
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,600
But you know, I don't know, man,
that's intriguing to me that the

200
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,000
Stanford game next year in a
way, you know, it's intriguing

201
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,920
to me.
Even the whole schedule for next

202
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:21,320
year seems very, very.
Pokey Ish, Like, I don't know.

203
00:12:21,560 --> 00:12:24,080
I'm just looking at what we have
and I know we don't know who's

204
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,160
coming back and things like
that.

205
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,680
But you don't look at that and
just go Oh well, there's nobody

206
00:12:29,680 --> 00:12:32,440
on there that we're going to
want to go see play.

207
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,320
You know, that's some that's
some decent home games and then

208
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,600
we got some, you know, away
games that that we've brought

209
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,120
back that make you happy playing
Miami away.

210
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,400
You know, playing Duke, Duke's
playing good ball.

211
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,320
Then you got Stanford on there,
even though they're not playing

212
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:48,800
good ball this year.
But.

213
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,960
They're going to be new to the
ACC, Then you know we got queues

214
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,160
on them, which he'll fuck the
carrier down, but yes.

215
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,520
All of that stuff, yes.
All of that stuff makes you

216
00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:01,760
happy, though you know to just
to just to have A at least looks

217
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,360
like a competent schedule.
So.

218
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:09,400
Brian, what intrigues you on the
schedule, the entire 2028

219
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,800
conference slate looks?
That's.

220
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,840
That's a pretty, I mean, I mean,
seriously.

221
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,160
I mean Florida State at home,
Louisville at home, Go to EU up

222
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,960
at Pitt over to Stanford.
Let's go to Napa for a weekend.

223
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,960
Let's let's get introduced
properly to to SMU coming to

224
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:30,360
Lane.
So get them at a nice little ACC

225
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,240
introduction in the Lane Stadium
introduction.

226
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,600
So I think that's going to be an
interesting year for us.

227
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:41,720
I think if you look at 2027, you
get, you get Miami at home, you

228
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,560
get Clemson.
We'll see if Clemson will still

229
00:13:44,560 --> 00:13:47,960
be Clemson in 2027, the way
things are going for them, but

230
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:49,880
that's neither here or there at
this point.

231
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,480
Then you flipped on the other
side, you got Louisville UNCSMUI

232
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,600
think that 2728, that's an
interesting slate back-to-back

233
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:02,600
years there.
I I like this a lot better than

234
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,280
what we've seen, what we thought
we were going to see for the

235
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,720
next three to five years.
So the fact that Miami's back on

236
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:14,520
there, we get finally get UVA at
home again next year, Clemson

237
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,680
staying on the schedule for
2024.

238
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:21,760
We get a team like Georgia Tech
that you know could be more of a

239
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:27,240
high mid tier ACC team this time
next year if things keep

240
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,120
trending the way they're
training for them right now.

241
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,640
You better not be ranked when
you play Georgia Tech.

242
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:33,440
No, don't.
No, you're going to lose they.

243
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,320
Beating the shit out of people
when they ranked.

244
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:38,760
I don't know what it is.
And then you get and you got

245
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,440
Duke on there.
We'll see if Duke still has Elko

246
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:46,080
in house, but yeah, that that
could be a pretty intriguing

247
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,000
well away game next year.
That's what I might make my way

248
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,440
down to.
Well, you know the ones like,

249
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,680
and that's what I say like, I
like, like the schedule.

250
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,720
Next year's a a solid schedule,
some good away games, some good

251
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,120
home games.
I look at 2027, y'all mentioned

252
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:06,840
it already. 2027 is like a great
year.

253
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:11,480
Miami and Clemson at home,
Stanford at home, and then we

254
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,040
were talking about right before
we came on.

255
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:18,280
Road travel for 2027 is
unbelievable in 2025 too.

256
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:23,080
So for us here in Virginia, it's
going to be Virginia and

257
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,440
Carolina.
That's day trips.

258
00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,240
You can get up 6:00 in the
morning and drive Chapel Hill.

259
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:30,040
You can drive UVA.
Louisville is a destination.

260
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:31,760
I think Tally was trying to go
there this year.

261
00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:35,160
He's not going to be able to
make it next week and then go to

262
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,280
Fort Worth.
Look at 2025.

263
00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,600
Florida State, Georgia Tech
tally.

264
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,200
You could legitimately go to two
away games.

265
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,800
Oh yeah, yeah.
Georgia Tech's easy for me to

266
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,120
get to, easy for, you know,
Bobby Dodd Stadium is easy to

267
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,720
get to. 3 hours for me.
In Florida State, what we looked

268
00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,800
at six hours I think.
It's about 6 hours, yeah.

269
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,200
Not a bad drive.
That's the same as me coming to

270
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:57,480
Blacksburg, really.
There you go.

271
00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:00,720
So go to the dope that year and
then you take a look again 2

272
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,880
local games where it's driving
distance for the fan base to go

273
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:04,960
to.
So.

274
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:10,560
I mean, overall, I think this is
better than what we saw when it

275
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:14,120
was changed a couple years ago
or last year.

276
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:18,040
It was a lot better.
Again, the the interest in

277
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,160
strips will be out West.
Also, the interest trip and a

278
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,240
little thing I'm a little scared
of is them screwing us on travel

279
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,640
with trips to Miami and trips
way out.

280
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:34,000
W Brown looked it up. 2024 We
have the third farthest travel

281
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,840
schedule.
In the ACC because we're going

282
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:39,840
cross country and we're going to
the bottom of the country.

283
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,280
Right.
So, so we got all that out.

284
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,640
I look forward to seeing it.
I look forward to home in these

285
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,880
home games.
I mean, I I keep looking at that

286
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,000
Clemson game and I feel like
like that might be the one to go

287
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:55,120
to, that might be the one to to
drop the coin on and go to next

288
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,960
year if it's the right time.
Right.

289
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,160
If it's the right.
Time got to make it the right

290
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,120
time.
Got to make it the right time.

291
00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:05,520
And I meant like if they put
that thing up way too late in

292
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,240
the season or way too.
Early as I.

293
00:17:07,319 --> 00:17:13,000
Am I want Clemson 20.
We all know what to do with

294
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,400
ourselves.
Last time we went in Chestnut

295
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,200
Hill will be this year and it's
going to be like five years.

296
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,920
It's the best thing.
That's our buddy Robbie joining

297
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,000
us tonight.
Season's over, Robbie.

298
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,720
Texted us.
We will see a lot more Robbie.

299
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,040
He got Starlink Internet now,
and the season's over.

300
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,320
Down in North Carolina.
My God, I hate that your

301
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:31,880
season's over.
I'm glad you got better,

302
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:36,360
Internet.
Good job when you trade the Just

303
00:17:36,360 --> 00:17:37,640
like.
All right, well, season's over,

304
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,160
but at least I got some shit to
watch now.

305
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,960
Well, the whole thing is Jim,
I'll say about is this the over

306
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:46,720
under to 2030 unless somebody
finds a way out, it will be now

307
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,440
2030 could be the year where
things start breaking because

308
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,880
it's been close enough to where
it's saying, OK, we're leaving

309
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,280
in a couple years.
We can absorb the 100, we can

310
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:55,960
absorb the hundred 200 million
dollars.

311
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,600
The the amount that they have to
the swallow gets a little bit

312
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,040
smaller the clothes.
Might be smaller.

313
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,760
Much, much smaller.
All righty Well, we have done

314
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:09,200
with that also but now it's time
to tell the truth Monday or tell

315
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:10,840
the truth Tuesday on a Monday
edition.

316
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,800
So y'all know what we do here.
If you join us every week and if

317
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,240
you don't if your first time.
We talk about what went well, we

318
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:22,480
talk about what went bad.
Anything we happen that we're

319
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:27,240
not prepared for and.
Effectively, what can we do

320
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,520
better going forward?
And boys, y'all take your

321
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,080
poison.
We got a bunch of stuff here.

322
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,880
What went well?
You talk about it, it probably

323
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,400
went well on Thursday because we
beat them 3810.

324
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,720
It could have been 50.
Yeah, easy, easy.

325
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:43,320
Could have been 50.
What?

326
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:44,200
What?
What?

327
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:45,360
What?
Caught your eye, Bron?

328
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,640
Zero.
That's the number of fucking

329
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,040
yards that Syracuse rushed for
in that game, man.

330
00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:58,720
We should have pulled that one.
We should have pulled that one

331
00:18:58,720 --> 00:18:59,680
from the locker.
Room.

332
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,960
Yeah, that that was when I seen
that's that that's kind of

333
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:09,680
that's kind of crazy the rush
for 0 yards, you know you we

334
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:16,480
have been looking at a 39 yard
rush or you know 50 yards, zero.

335
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:21,760
I mean that's a big deal man.
Hold A-Team to 0 yards rush.

336
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:26,400
Especially, you know, a team
whose quarterback essentially

337
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,800
can kill people on the ground.
Did they run first quarterback?

338
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:36,920
Yeah, I think he had like 175
yards, 147 yards against maybe

339
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:38,280
Purdue or something this year,
but he did.

340
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,600
That's crazy.
Yeah, 0 rushing yards.

341
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,480
They had the longest run.
We gave up all night was 14 and

342
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:48,280
but I I saw that running in
today, that run was very well

343
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,800
fitted.
Allen just made some good moves

344
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,880
and they had some good blocks.
We didn't spring any leaks.

345
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,440
Y'all.
And you know, once we got the

346
00:19:56,440 --> 00:20:00,920
lead, what else went well?
How about the pass rush and

347
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,560
living in the backfield?
The reason we played that from

348
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:08,640
the ACC Network, literally.
It was the first play of the

349
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,600
game set.
The tone.

350
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:17,720
Right in the face 8 sacks, four
more tackles for loss, 12 total

351
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,800
tackles for loss.
APR has to.

352
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,960
You know the best part?
And I think this made me feel

353
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,400
good.
Y'all know who accounted for for

354
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,280
the for all the sacks, the
defensive line.

355
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,640
D line, D line's playing good
and everybody was doing their

356
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:36,600
job.
You know if you look at the, if

357
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:41,200
you look at the D line, yeah you
got some they're having a key on

358
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:45,320
APR now you know.
But you got other people winning

359
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:49,280
their one-on-one battles and
that, like when you have a

360
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,480
running quarterback, you can't
just rush it, you know, there's

361
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,720
got to be lanes, you got to
collapse that pocket.

362
00:20:55,120 --> 00:20:59,080
And a lot of times it was just
essentially whose hand got to

363
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,120
him first.
That pocket just kept

364
00:21:01,120 --> 00:21:04,320
collapsing, getting smaller and
smaller till it's on top of you.

365
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:09,400
So everybody on that D line look
like they, you know, at least in

366
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:11,720
that game we got a still got a
long season ahead.

367
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,200
But at least in that game
everybody took, took on the

368
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,520
challenge and said hey, we're
not going to let them beat us

369
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,120
this way.
And you know, once that

370
00:21:19,120 --> 00:21:23,040
happened, it was just you.
You seen what happened.

371
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,640
In in the end, 0 rushing yards.
The ends were flying up the

372
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:30,920
field, but also the the D
tackles were pushing the pocket,

373
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,840
keeping those lanes tight.
So you couldn't.

374
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,480
Schrader couldn't step up, he
couldn't escape outside.

375
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,320
Everybody was where they needed
to be and everybody was coming

376
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:44,120
full force at that quarterback.
And I mean that like like Curtis

377
00:21:44,120 --> 00:21:45,920
said, we had eight sacks in that
game.

378
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,960
Another 4 tackles for loss.
I mean when you when you can

379
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:52,440
penetrate into the backfield
like that and create problems

380
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,880
for the quarterback
consistently, everything else

381
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,480
can fall apart.
Especially when you're doing a

382
00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:01,200
good job in the running game and
not not letting them run for you

383
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,840
know, big gains where they could
keep keep the sticks moving and

384
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,680
stay ahead of the sticks where
where they can get some better,

385
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,440
you know quicker opportunities
in the passing game.

386
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,480
So he had to stand in the pocket
and throw down field and we were

387
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,360
able to get home.
Absolutely.

388
00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,280
And shout out we mentioned APR,
I'm going to shout out everybody

389
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,720
that got a sack or a credited
first sack.

390
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,400
Mario Kendricks, Keyshawn
Burgos, Norell Pollard Cole

391
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:26,640
Nelson, Josh Fuga, James
Jeanette, CJ McCray, Elijah

392
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,040
Clock and Keyshawn Burgos.
That's a lot.

393
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,240
That's and that's the other
piece, right?

394
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,040
And I know I want to get off
this, but that's the other piece

395
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:36,920
Telly, you mentioned other guys
are feeding.

396
00:22:37,360 --> 00:22:40,080
And it wasn't just one guy, it
was almost the whole.

397
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:42,680
You're next.
Go eat him.

398
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:44,320
You're next.
Go get him.

399
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:46,920
And I mean, you could have given
Kianta Jenkins credit for the

400
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,160
Pollard sack because, I mean he
he came off the edge hard, made

401
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,840
traders step right up to where
they were, the deep tackles were

402
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,000
collapsed in the pocket and
Pollard was right there to bring

403
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,120
him down.
Yeah, that's the way it goes.

404
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,000
Well, a couple things that our
buddy Robbie said.

405
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:03,040
He said, Where'd you get that
concept from?

406
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:07,800
Y'all put that up Robbie, I know
you just getting in here every

407
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:09,680
week man.
They've been giving you credit.

408
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:14,080
We definitely appreciate your.
We definitely appreciate your

409
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,680
your anything that you give us
here at BCP and the the

410
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,360
knowledge that you have.
Always a pleasure to talk to you

411
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:22,160
and then put that next one up
too.

412
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:23,160
Curtis the next?
Step.

413
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,280
You lead it off, buddy.
You lead it off.

414
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:28,800
Run game.
Hey, we talking about them not

415
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,440
rushing.
Let's talk about us rushing.

416
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:36,400
That 1-2 punch looked good.
You had, you know, drones did

417
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,880
what he what he needed to do.
Just him being in the game helps

418
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:41,520
the run game.
But he was able to break some

419
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,440
runs and we got to give a shout
out to Toot man.

420
00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,840
It's like this kid just keeps
getting stronger and stronger as

421
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:52,040
the season goes on.
It's like he was hitting seven

422
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:57,400
yard runs and it looked like
everybody was me watching on TV

423
00:23:57,400 --> 00:24:00,760
like I'm standing up.
It's hard to get excited about a

424
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,360
7 yard run, but he's breaking
tackles.

425
00:24:03,360 --> 00:24:07,080
He's, you know one one step and
he's gone.

426
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,240
Like it was great to see just
him, what he's.

427
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,120
I know when he came here he was
good, but just to keep watching

428
00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:16,560
him getting better and better
against ACC talent.

429
00:24:17,360 --> 00:24:20,960
Looks like the line is is
growing with him.

430
00:24:21,120 --> 00:24:24,000
So they're at least giving him a
little bit of space.

431
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:28,600
And then also what I like to see
is Thomas coming in behind him.

432
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,840
Looks like he's learning from
him because I don't know if he

433
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:34,560
was injured or I don't know what
the deal was, but he looks

434
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,360
different running the ball in
these last couple of games than

435
00:24:38,360 --> 00:24:41,080
he has at the beginning of the
season.

436
00:24:41,360 --> 00:24:43,160
He's not going down with one
hit.

437
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,880
He's finding holes.
He's getting more patient.

438
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,960
It was a one play, I can't
remember exactly you know what

439
00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,920
kind of player was, but it was
kind of a maybe a stretch play

440
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,640
or something.
And he waited for his like he

441
00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,240
waited on this lineman to flush
all the all the defense out and

442
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,240
he just put his foot in the
ground and stepped up field.

443
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:07,160
So to watch him excel or or
learn from from Tooting and get

444
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,440
better every week has been good
too, because we need both of

445
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,720
those guys to win these next
games.

446
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:19,080
Yeah, the the run game was very
impressive to me.

447
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:24,360
I wasn't expecting to see that
we.

448
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:32,080
Had kind of seen seen what this
team could do, but I just, I

449
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:35,360
wasn't anticipating them taking
this many steps and having that

450
00:25:35,360 --> 00:25:38,920
big of a game this quick just
because we had seen them kind of

451
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,040
all right.
Start to creep towards 200,

452
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,880
creep maybe a little little past
200 in the rushing game.

453
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,280
Yeah, I didn't expect us to bust
open for 318.

454
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,240
And like you were talking about
Tooting, like there was a

455
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,800
stretch there where for like
every.

456
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,840
Like every play he was getting
like 8 to 10 yards for about

457
00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,960
like a six or seven play
stretch, yeah.

458
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,680
And I mean they just like they
couldn't stop him all.

459
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,200
Right, Brian, real quick, just
so we can hit it on this.

460
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,560
I think we saw a lot more Brody
Meadows on Thursday night than

461
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:16,720
we had to me.
And I told you me and you talked

462
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,000
about it when you were playing
poker.

463
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,400
We're sitting over here watching
the game.

464
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,920
Harper, Clemens.
That didn't look like the Parker

465
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:29,360
Clements from the first seven
games of the year something It

466
00:26:29,360 --> 00:26:33,240
wasn't perfect but it won't the
where he was.

467
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,080
You know it may come down to it
may be competition.

468
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,240
You know, it may be a because.
I mean, I've seen, just from my

469
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:48,720
perspective, I've seen some
shuffling on the line.

470
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,160
At one point I'm texting Curtis.
Like, Chaplin's not in the game.

471
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,640
Is he hurt?
And then Parker's not in the

472
00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:58,600
game, you know, is Ron Crook
trying to get some of these

473
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,840
young guys, some Byrne to say
you didn't do your job, you got

474
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:03,000
to come over here and stand with
me?

475
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,600
Or were they were they injured?
Are they trying to get, like, we

476
00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,840
don't know.
But I do know that when you rush

477
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:13,560
for 318 yards, people who are
going in the game, somebody's

478
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:17,560
creating some holes and then
even when the young guys got in

479
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,880
at the end of the game, like
they came off the bench height,

480
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,200
they were firing.
Off the ball at the end, you see

481
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:24,840
people firing off the ball at
the end, wanting to get in,

482
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:26,200
wanting to show what they can
do.

483
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,160
So, I mean, that's what you got
to do as a that's what you got

484
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,040
to do as a as a football team.
You got to build off each other.

485
00:27:33,360 --> 00:27:39,160
You have to continue to iron,
sharpen iron and you got to have

486
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,640
those competition plays in
practice.

487
00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:45,960
So I'm, I'm thinking from what
I'm seeing that may be it.

488
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,560
You know, it's a little bit more
competition going on, but

489
00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,840
people's not just comfortable
where you are, You're the best

490
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:52,080
we got.
You going to have to go out

491
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:53,720
there.
It's like, God, we'll put a

492
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,400
freshman in if we need to.
We just need somebody to go in

493
00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:00,960
and get this job done.
So I agree with you, Curtis.

494
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:02,440
I did look a little bit
different.

495
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:05,520
Parker did look just a little
different this game.

496
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,720
Then we've seen him again.
It wasn't perfect but we got to

497
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,960
give him a little bit more
credit for this game that we

498
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,080
have seen in other games.
Yeah, better overall.

499
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:19,320
I mean when you look at what we
want to see, I think progression

500
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,560
is what we kind of been looking
for in this offensive line and

501
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,080
we're starting to see a little
bit of that and some of that's

502
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,920
mentalities.
I think some of that is this

503
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:30,440
team is starting to take on the,
at least on the offensive side,

504
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:33,200
it's starting to take on the
mentality of their quarterback.

505
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:37,640
Yeah, true.
And when you see the way.

506
00:28:38,080 --> 00:28:41,880
That Drones has approached these
matchups and how he comes out,

507
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:45,400
he's he's, he's fiery, he's he's
somebody isn't afraid to go up

508
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:47,920
and deliver a blow when he
finishes a run.

509
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,120
And I think the offensive
identity is starting to kind of

510
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:56,360
feed off of that, yeah. 100%
Well, let's talk about drones on

511
00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,440
the other on the other part of
his game and how efficient he

512
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:07,200
was on Thursday night, 63% aid,
an attempt on 615 to 24.

513
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:11,480
And Brian, talk about what you
saw from Felton and Lane because

514
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:16,440
I mean, they carried the load.
Yeah, it was.

515
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,880
It was really a good game from
both of them.

516
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:24,800
We saw the the big play, big,
big deep ball to Felton.

517
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,560
That kind of really got things
going and really kind of put the

518
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,520
the game a little bit out of
reach, right?

519
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,720
That was kind of the play that
kind of felt like broke their

520
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:38,800
back because we had scored.
Couple field goals, got a

521
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,440
touchdown, but that felt like
the the dagger play, that was

522
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,280
the that was the play that kind
of broke their will for the for

523
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,800
good and all for the rest of the
game, yeah.

524
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,200
For sure.
And they both had deep 2 deep

525
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:52,600
balls.
The deep ball Brown Mitchell for

526
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,920
the touchdown, but lames that
little deep whatever he did.

527
00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:59,800
The corner they said Dan Mullen,
not a bad analyst by the way.

528
00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:03,040
I didn't mind listening to Dan
because he said he talked about

529
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,400
why Lane got his guy.
He said he was running it.

530
00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:10,600
Showed corner, got bit, he hit
post and then drones dropped it

531
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,720
right in the bread basket day,
which was great.

532
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,760
Here's the other thing I like.
You'll pull up the box score

533
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,280
guys and start counting the
number of names that got to

534
00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:27,080
catch 99 guys got catches and
and yes, Felton and and and and

535
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:30,320
Lane got none of those but for
those other seven.

536
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,200
He hit Gosnell, he hit laugh,
and he hit two and he hit

537
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,480
Malachi.
He hit right, he hit Gosnell, He

538
00:30:35,480 --> 00:30:40,680
hit Holloway to me.
That's where I we keep talking

539
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:41,960
about.
You know what that means,

540
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,000
Curtis?
Progression he's going through.

541
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:48,240
He's going through progressions,
he's progressing and he's going

542
00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:50,240
through his progressions.
He's checking down.

543
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:54,320
He's doing what a quarterback is
supposed to do, which is great

544
00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:57,280
to see.
Drones is my guy.

545
00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,720
He's all of our guys like we've
been team drones from the

546
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,720
beginning.
But I will say I'm going to toss

547
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,720
this back to you, Curtis,
because I don't want to call it

548
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:09,720
what went bad.
I think we can talk about it

549
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,560
here.
Seeing drones not because he

550
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:17,480
didn't have his A game like if I
if I rated his game with us

551
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:21,920
winning like we did, I'll say at
least AB minus is probably where

552
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,160
I put him.
You know he missed a couple of

553
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,880
guys he, you know missed a
couple of deep balls.

554
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:30,080
Different things like that.
Even on the sacks, I feel like

555
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:34,680
you know some of those sacks he
he he can get out of that the

556
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,160
more he learns because they had
a spy on him and I think he's

557
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:41,480
just better than that linebacker
linebacker make a great play but

558
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,040
him maybe holding on the ball
too long but waiting too long to

559
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:47,720
take off.
So I'll say talking about it

560
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:51,600
while we're talking about this
Curtis, how do you feel you know

561
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:55,720
about drones?
Not having his A game, but still

562
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,760
having that mentality to rally
the team for us to beat somebody

563
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,680
38 to 10.
Y'all y'all say a lot about it

564
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,800
and y'all both play at a
collegiate level.

565
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,600
It's mentality.
We blew out a team that was four

566
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,040
and three.
Yes, they had their struggles

567
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,760
coming in, but they had some.
They beat Purdue, they had a

568
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:15,240
couple OK wins.
We didn't see this blowout

569
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,800
coming and if you told me.
Oh, you going to blow them out.

570
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,880
I was glad to sit here and be
like drones went for 285 in the

571
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,000
air.
He went for 110 on the ground.

572
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,440
He he accounted for four
touchdowns total.

573
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:28,680
He didn't.
He didn't.

574
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:32,720
But what he also did like you
said he rallied the troops but

575
00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:36,560
he stayed calm.
He didn't get rattled any when

576
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:39,480
you know he had he had one big
run he was kind of getting box

577
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,320
they spied him.
But Brian, what do you say this

578
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:48,120
that when the quarterback?
Has that B minus and something

579
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,960
like this happens, What does it
do for everybody around you?

580
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:52,800
What does it do for the line?
What does it do for the White

581
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:53,880
House?
What does it do for the running

582
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,240
backs?
Well, like like Tally said, I

583
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,400
think the big thing is that you
know when you see a quarterback

584
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:04,600
that can still impact the game
with his leadership and

585
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:08,680
mentality, even when he's not
playing what you would call it A

586
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:12,280
game or an A minus game or that
B plus game, you know, we we

587
00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,320
probably got AB game from him
overall.

588
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,960
But he was still impacting the
the play in other ways.

589
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:21,560
He was still making the timely
throws even when he wasn't

590
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,880
making all the throws.
The throws he made counted the

591
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,200
throws he made removing the
sticks, the throws he made were

592
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:30,480
going for big touchdowns.
So you still were getting some

593
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,040
of that as we were going along.
And like I said, I think the

594
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:37,960
mentality that he brings to the
table, we feed off that because

595
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,240
the running game was working,
our running game was working and

596
00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,360
the only time we it was slowing
down.

597
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,160
And it's and it's been, we've
seen it week kind of week after

598
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:48,480
week.
At this point, if if this team

599
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:50,880
has one flaw and we're going to
talk about it here in a second,

600
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:55,920
if this team has one flaw, it's
probably red zone scoring, yeah?

601
00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,800
And and and that's where two
things are happening.

602
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,480
Two things are happening there.
One, you you show you know your

603
00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,840
inexperienced quarterback.
Some of that inexperience shows

604
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:10,120
up in those tighter windows,
those you know, more quick

605
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:11,840
decision making.
That has to take place in the

606
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:16,639
red area #2.
Your offensive line flaws are a

607
00:34:16,639 --> 00:34:19,280
lot more apparent because you
have a lot less room to work.

608
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,000
You got more from the box, you
got more Brian, we're going to

609
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:24,400
let you, we're going to let you
cook with that.

610
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,719
When we go to, we going to go to
the next segment.

611
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,320
We want to stay on the what
we're good right there, but

612
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:30,719
don't forget what you're saying.
Yeah, Don't.

613
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:32,679
Forget it.
Don't get it.

614
00:34:32,679 --> 00:34:34,840
That's all good stuff.
But I just wanted to go.

615
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,719
But yeah, I wanted to go back
right quick, Curtis.

616
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:42,360
Just to say one thing about
drones and and even when he

617
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:48,719
doesn't have a A+ game, like
Brian said, the running game is

618
00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,679
working.
And this is no disrespect to any

619
00:34:51,679 --> 00:34:55,000
quarterback or any quarterback
that's played for Virginia Tech

620
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,120
or that started the season as
the Virginia Tech QB.

621
00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:02,520
One our offense is set up to
have a running back be a threat.

622
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,520
Drones is a threat.
So even if he doesn't run for

623
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:10,320
any yards, he has done it in the
past and that defense is keying

624
00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:14,000
on him running.
If you watch the linebackers and

625
00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,560
you watch the ends, their eyes
on that quarterback to make sure

626
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,760
he doesn't gash them.
So that little bit of time when

627
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:25,520
you give Tooting just that
little extra step and he can get

628
00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:29,560
that little extra off to get in
that, get up that up that gap,

629
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:31,920
up that same.
That's why we're able to hit

630
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:37,320
people for six yards, 7 yards,
you know, even 3 yards instead

631
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,200
of being tackled in the
backfield like we were at the

632
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,320
beginning of the season.
But Curtis, I know you have

633
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:42,480
something else.
Go ahead brother.

634
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,720
Well, I got two because you were
talking about the rush, and I

635
00:35:44,720 --> 00:35:50,040
want to hit this real quick
since I want y'all to both guess

636
00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:54,600
at this number since Kyron
drones took over at quarterback.

637
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,440
Do y'all know what we're
averaging per game?

638
00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:01,000
Rushing the ball?
I'll give y'all this yet.

639
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:03,960
It's in the top 20.
I don't.

640
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:04,560
I don't.
I don't.

641
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,960
I was going to say I know it's,
I know it's, it's good.

642
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:09,800
It's better than we were at.
But I don't.

643
00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:13,360
Know what it was.
I don't want it 190.

644
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,400
Six.
That's pretty good.

645
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:18,920
I don't.
Even one play if Price is right,

646
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:22,360
man, I didn't even go over.
Nailed it, 196.

647
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,800
That would rank 19th in the
country in Russia.

648
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:28,760
But you got to understand that's
crazy compared to what we and

649
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:32,440
then like you think about again,
we talk about Purdue.

650
00:36:34,720 --> 00:36:38,040
This Syracuse team that we just
played gashed them.

651
00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:44,240
They gashed them running the
ball, US playing ODU like we we

652
00:36:44,240 --> 00:36:47,560
met what we have 50 yards
rushing, 30 yards rushing.

653
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:53,160
Like we had a crazy number of
yards rushing compared to 319

654
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:54,960
like.
What we're doing now is crazy.

655
00:36:55,240 --> 00:36:57,440
But you know what?
Hold that, because me and me and

656
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,000
Brian, remember we got to state
of the program address in

657
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,280
December.
Got all those feelings in the

658
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:03,320
back of you?
Oh yeah.

659
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:07,040
We go pack them away.
We go let them flow in the when

660
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,160
the liquor's flowing, Yeah, we
have to see.

661
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:11,400
Nobody got to go to work the
next day.

662
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,720
Yeah, we got to see what these
next four games going to do.

663
00:37:13,720 --> 00:37:14,800
Jeremy, we're doing that for you
too.

664
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:16,600
We know you're out there.
Two other pieces to hit

665
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,560
offensively.
I love the two gadget plays.

666
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:23,120
The Malachi.
Malachi Thomas can throw a ball.

667
00:37:23,600 --> 00:37:25,640
Oh, it looks good.
They look great.

668
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:30,880
And then the XTV reversed That
kids got some wheels.

669
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,960
Cause, yeah, they do.
Watching that play, are we going

670
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:33,880
to lose?
Y'all are we going to lose?

671
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,520
Oh wait a second.
That was the longest.

672
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,120
That was the the farthest I ever
seen somebody run 9 yards in my

673
00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,200
life.
It looked like he was running

674
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,640
for 40 yards.
It's a nine yard game, but like

675
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:47,080
you said, it could have been a
loss.

676
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,440
But he squeaked something out of
it.

677
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,120
So.
Heads had some jets had a little

678
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,000
bit of wiggle to get some extra
yards there so I mean that's

679
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,120
what you like to see from that
type of play and it and it makes

680
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,080
them have to think about it
going forward.

681
00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:02,280
They can't just send those
linebackers flowing.

682
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:05,000
Anytime we have one of those
tosses or anything like that

683
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,600
they got to start thinking about
in the back of the head I, I I

684
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:10,960
can't quite pursue like that.
I got to got to make sure that

685
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,800
we're we're we're not flowing
too quick here especially guys

686
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:16,760
on the backside too that they
have that container

687
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:20,000
responsibility.
When we run, When we run a short

688
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:25,200
side toss.
Uh, oh, oh Lord.

689
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,880
Robbie.
Robbie.

690
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,560
You know, you always got my vote
to talk football, man.

691
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,480
I don't know if these two dudes
up here like you, man, but you

692
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,040
know I love them.
You know I love you.

693
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:39,800
So you always you always got my
you always got my vote to drink

694
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,200
some moonshine and and talk
football.

695
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,080
That man was in my way and he
definitely got my vote.

696
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,040
Yeah, definitely.
Two more things.

697
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,480
Give special teams a shout out.
John Love Drilling the goals all

698
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:51,040
night.
John Love.

699
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:57,120
And Tucker Holloway that Tell me
is he topping the ACC right now?

700
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,040
You give me a minute.
I'll talk about what y'all saw

701
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:04,560
cause 'cause Stu Holt.
Somebody posted?

702
00:39:04,720 --> 00:39:08,600
Yeah, somebody posted something
about Tucker Holloway, you know,

703
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:14,480
Oh.
Oh, he's topping the ACC, right?

704
00:39:14,720 --> 00:39:16,560
And he ain't even got a
touchdown yet this year.

705
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,240
No, he doesn't.
That's crazy.

706
00:39:18,240 --> 00:39:21,840
But this is what I was going to
say, which was cool to I heard

707
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:25,400
him on some of these podcasts.
Was it TSLI heard?

708
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:27,600
I've seen him on a podcast.
I got to go and find out exactly

709
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,640
which one because I've listened
to so much stuff.

710
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:32,560
But you know, he's just talking.
He, he seems like a really

711
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:36,920
humble kid and he talks about
just being a team player and

712
00:39:36,920 --> 00:39:41,520
somebody posted that he was I
think topping the ACC or that

713
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:46,480
stat that you just said and he
he posted a picture of still

714
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,960
shot of everybody blocking and
he said This is why.

715
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:54,120
So he's posting everybody that's
got that man locked up in the

716
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:58,000
lane that he has you know and he
makes one man missing.

717
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:02,480
He's off to the races.
So to have that mind, to even be

718
00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:06,520
humble like that, and to bring
his teammates into that

719
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:08,600
celebration with him is awesome.
So.

720
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:11,320
I mean, we got a lot of this
stuff going, man.

721
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:14,600
I mean, I just want us to keep
building on this momentum and,

722
00:40:15,120 --> 00:40:18,520
you know, finish out the season.
Absolutely.

723
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,960
All right, Brian, you ready?
We moved to what went bad?

724
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:24,760
The floor is yours because
because.

725
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:26,880
I got overzealous there.
That's my bad.

726
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:28,640
No, no, you.
You all good?

727
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:30,480
But I know what, but Brian, go
ahead and.

728
00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:31,680
Say it.
But I got a one time.

729
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:32,920
Get that Lantern.
I was like, oh shit.

730
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:33,960
I'm now I'm talking about
something bad.

731
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:35,840
Holy shit, I'm a little ahead of
myself.

732
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,640
Here, LeBron, be be reality.
Why?

733
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:39,800
Why?
What you were talking about, why

734
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:42,240
you wanted to change not only
for games, but what could have

735
00:40:42,240 --> 00:40:44,480
happened.
Like what could have happened

736
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,520
Thursday night could have been.
Big time.

737
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,720
Yeah, it could have been easily
A50 Burger if you're more

738
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:54,680
successful in the red zone.
And like I was saying earlier,

739
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,480
that starts with, you know,
there are a lot of reasons that

740
00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,120
a young team like this, an
offense that's still developing

741
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,760
like this, is having some of
those problems.

742
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:07,120
When you get in the red area,
you got a quarterback that's

743
00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:10,360
still learning, the offense
still overall inexperienced in

744
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:13,520
terms of the number of starts
and things like that, that that

745
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,280
gets harder.
When you're in the red zone,

746
00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:20,040
those windows get tighter.
You see a lot more, lot less

747
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:23,560
time in the pocket because you
got more guys near and around

748
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,880
the line of scrimmage.
You know, you add that with the

749
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,440
on the offensive line side, you
got more people near the box.

750
00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:35,200
They're bringing more pressure.
There's it's harder to get to

751
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:37,960
the second level because there's
more people in the box close to

752
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,720
the box.
So there's there's a lot of

753
00:41:40,720 --> 00:41:43,360
different factors that come into
play when you talk about success

754
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,920
in the red area versus success
between the 20s, so.

755
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,840
I I get why we're struggling.
But at the same time it's

756
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:55,040
something that we need to start
seeing some progress on as we as

757
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:57,480
we play a team like Louisville
this week and as we close out

758
00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:58,840
these last four games of the
season.

759
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:02,520
Yeah, especially like you said
when you're playing somebody

760
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:06,040
like Louisville where you going
into their house, you going in

761
00:42:06,080 --> 00:42:08,880
as an underdog.
If you get it at Red Zone,

762
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:12,000
you're not going to be a team
like that with field goals.

763
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,360
Not all the time.
You know, you a field goal could

764
00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:18,480
win it, but you got to put some,
you got to get in the end zone,

765
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:22,960
you got to touch, pay dirt.
So like you said, all of those

766
00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:26,600
things that you talked about are
things that our young offense,

767
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:30,160
our young play caller is going
to learn and it's going to do

768
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,880
better.
You know, it's the the offense

769
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:36,440
as a whole.
We're going to see that stuff

770
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:37,880
and we're going to start
producing there.

771
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:43,800
So I'm excited to see what we,
what we're going to be able to

772
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,120
accomplish.
I guess the next thing, Curtis,

773
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,920
I'll throw back to you because
it wasn't very much that we can

774
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:52,400
say went bad, but I think you
may have had something else that

775
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:56,000
you want to talk about.
Well, just no forced turnovers.

776
00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:58,440
We, we had the opportunity a
couple times.

777
00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:00,320
I mean, we got the ball on the
ground, there were a couple

778
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,720
times we got our hands on it in
the air and we just didn't do

779
00:43:03,720 --> 00:43:05,760
it.
And and again, that's the thing

780
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:08,840
goes back to what Brian said, if
we force a couple turnovers in

781
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:12,080
this game.
I mean, let's go back 99 and go

782
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:13,120
62.
Nothing.

783
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,800
I mean, this game could have
been big time bad into bronze

784
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,920
point last week.
Syracuse to me is a better team

785
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,280
than the bottom.
Yeah, there's there's like,

786
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:26,000
right there, right there about
to fall under that tear.

787
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:27,800
If they lose again, they're
going to fall into that tear.

788
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:30,760
And we might have sent the death
nail into the Dino Babies

789
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:34,120
coffin, but that's the piece
which, like this team's a little

790
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:36,320
bit better.
They've got a they've got a good

791
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,640
running quarterback, which
always seems to be an issue.

792
00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:42,720
But we we overcame it and go
let's go into this and I'm I'm

793
00:43:42,720 --> 00:43:43,840
going to go ahead and leave
mine.

794
00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,200
Y'all already said it once
anything happened we were not

795
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:48,960
prepared for.
I was not prepared of how we

796
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:52,480
clogged those QB lanes.
I there were no, she did not

797
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:55,600
escape any All night I was
shocked to see that.

798
00:43:55,840 --> 00:44:00,240
That's a credit to not only the
entire defensive coaching staff

799
00:44:00,240 --> 00:44:03,760
but Chris Marr understanding and
getting the guys in the

800
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,520
mentality like listen we and I
said it.

801
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:09,720
We have to stay disciplined.
We were aggressive off the

802
00:44:09,720 --> 00:44:13,360
edges, but to Brian, your point,
we were pushing the gap.

803
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:17,320
We weren't moving.
We weren't trying to like stunt

804
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:18,920
and shift and slant and all
this.

805
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:22,280
Just like, listen, just get up
in there, make sure if he comes

806
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,080
up, he's not coming up to
anything.

807
00:44:24,720 --> 00:44:29,000
A couple times we got lucky and
he took too many steps back and

808
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:32,600
we were able to get up in the
interior defensive line and get

809
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,720
to sacks.
What about you, Brian?

810
00:44:34,720 --> 00:44:37,200
What in the world were you not
prepared for?

811
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:41,800
I have not been prepared for how
much of a difference having

812
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,400
Nasir peoples out there has made
for this defense.

813
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:48,000
Yeah, that's been It definitely
was a big deal.

814
00:44:49,320 --> 00:44:53,400
I mean, we knew that that unit
was going to be young.

815
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:56,640
I think having his leadership
back has been big, but having

816
00:44:56,640 --> 00:45:00,440
his playback has been even
bigger and.

817
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:05,280
Something that I thought was a
huge problem the first four or

818
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:09,440
five weeks of the season has
been very much less so since

819
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:13,720
he's been back and healthy.
We will get tested again this

820
00:45:13,720 --> 00:45:16,920
week on that front.
So I'm hoping to continue this

821
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:20,640
trend of this being something
that has surprised me, but I I

822
00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:24,000
like putting that out there and
a just a specific shout out to

823
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,720
Peoples for his play the last
few weeks.

824
00:45:27,720 --> 00:45:29,600
Shout out and see your peoples.
What about you, Tally?

825
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,000
What in the world were you not
prepared for sitting down?

826
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,480
7:30, I'm sure you took a big,
deep breath.

827
00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:37,200
Oh, man.
Two things I wasn't prepared for

828
00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:42,560
was the time of possession.
They only held the ball for 18

829
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:45,880
minutes.
We had the ball for 41 minutes,

830
00:45:45,880 --> 00:45:48,920
almost 42 minutes compared to
their 18.

831
00:45:49,240 --> 00:45:55,120
And this is the big thing.
They were O for 9 on 3rd down, O

832
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:59,360
for 9:00.
Oh yeah, I got it.

833
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:00,400
He called it.
He.

834
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:01,920
Called it out.
He set you up.

835
00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:06,200
He.
Set you up O for 9 on 3rd down.

836
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,360
You know, you been every
everybody's been in the lane,

837
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,800
you know.
And on 3rd down you're up and

838
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,840
you're yelling, you got your
keys and then they get a first

839
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:18,000
down and you sit down and you
look at Curtis and go fuck, you

840
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,080
know what I'm saying?
Like that's what you that's what

841
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:24,560
I do when I'm in there.
But I'm at the house and I'm

842
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:28,640
standing up and I'm shaking my
keys and we get off the field

843
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:33,560
again and again and again and
again the whole night.

844
00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:38,880
Like I was not prepared to shut
them down and they go over 9 on

845
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,080
3rd down.
Like I've never seen nothing

846
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:42,840
like it, man.
It was.

847
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:44,520
It was.
It was scary.

848
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,320
You know what it felt like?
And Brian?

849
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:50,120
I talked to Mitch at work.
I messaged him.

850
00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:52,360
Mitch, Mitch.
Mitch is season ticket holder.

851
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:57,840
It felt like the lane of old.
She felt nasty, she felt mean.

852
00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:00,800
She felt loud and they got the
bitter end of it.

853
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:02,880
Like she.
Lane.

854
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:06,400
Biddle Lane, you listen.
I wish we could play that clip

855
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:08,280
again.
Go find that and find the 8

856
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:12,640
sacks every single time.
It is so loud.

857
00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:16,840
You can just hear the crowd
right there, so loud at them.

858
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:18,440
I love that.
All right.

859
00:47:19,240 --> 00:47:20,960
What can we do better moving
forward?

860
00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:25,280
And I think, I think this is
going to be an echo, be that

861
00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:29,160
team every week, every week.
Every week, Consistently.

862
00:47:29,480 --> 00:47:31,600
Stop the run.
Sack the quarterback.

863
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:36,360
Run the ball, pass efficiently.
Big plays and it's like we know

864
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,560
you.
We wish you could but we know we

865
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:41,280
might not get 8 sacks every
week.

866
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:45,640
We understand that as as fans
that watch football, but we can

867
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:52,760
be a team that shows up and does
their job, that fields lanes and

868
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:57,240
doesn't give up a fucking 70
yard touchdown on 3rd and two,

869
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:02,480
you know, things like that.
You know, the big plays, the big

870
00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:05,840
running plays have killed us
early in the season.

871
00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:10,320
So it's good to see that we've
somewhat corrected those.

872
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:12,560
You know, you don't want to
speak too fast because we still

873
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,440
got four games to go.
But from what we've seen in the

874
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:18,320
pit game, for what we seen in
the weight game, from what we

875
00:48:18,320 --> 00:48:22,240
seen in this Syracuse game, you
know, Florida State is a little

876
00:48:22,240 --> 00:48:25,000
bit different than Florida
State's outside.

877
00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:28,560
Outside of three plays, we saw
it somewhat consistently against

878
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:30,360
them after that first quarter.
So, right.

879
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:34,560
So you know, just be that team
like you said every week, man.

880
00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:39,040
And and you know this, this,
this season shapes up and

881
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:41,880
finishes up Good for us.
Right.

882
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:45,120
Yeah, I mean, I'm right there
with you.

883
00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:48,000
Just let's let's be this team
every week and.

884
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:52,080
Like Tally said, I don't expect
8 sacks, but I want to see the

885
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:53,960
same type of effort of getting
there.

886
00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:56,280
Like you're not always going to
get home eight times like there.

887
00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:58,960
There's going to be quarterbacks
that get rid of the ball better

888
00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:00,840
than Schrader did.
There's been quarterbacks that

889
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,760
find a way to step up in the
pocket differently and able to

890
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:09,040
get the ball out of their hands
better than Schrader did, but

891
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,720
you're still impacting the play.
You're making him move faster.

892
00:49:12,720 --> 00:49:14,440
You're making him to get rid of
the ball quicker.

893
00:49:15,240 --> 00:49:18,560
If you're consistently doing
those things, you're going to be

894
00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:22,160
in a good position on defense to
get off the field.

895
00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:26,840
And I'll say it, and I'll say
this too, Curtis, when you say

896
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:31,440
be the same team every week,
that means at home and away.

897
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:34,840
We've seen a different team at
home than we've seen away.

898
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:40,320
So this week we're going away.
We're going to play a ranked

899
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:44,560
Louisville team, which we're
going to talk about after Curtis

900
00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:47,840
gives us some words.
Well the the last piece I'll say

901
00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:50,880
is and y'all talking about it
with you can't get a sacks every

902
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,440
week, you likely can't.
But what you can do and y'all

903
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:57,320
know this from both playing
tight end and line and tally

904
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:01,040
playing defensive end and
everything, you make them think

905
00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:02,800
so much.
There's going to be times this

906
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:05,400
week where Louisville's going to
go and Max protect on certain

907
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:09,040
place because they're going to
be like we screw up on this five

908
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:12,000
step drop.
He going to be in Plumbers Grill

909
00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:14,240
and he going to hit it.
We don't want that.

910
00:50:14,240 --> 00:50:16,000
So what we're going to do, we're
going to play Max protect.

911
00:50:16,000 --> 00:50:18,160
I want you shade left, you going
to shade right.

912
00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,280
We're going to send 3 routes
out, keep everybody else in.

913
00:50:21,720 --> 00:50:23,760
And when you start doing that,
you start taking away the

914
00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:26,160
options.
When you start stopping running

915
00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:30,400
the ball and you fill in the
lanes, OK, instead of the

916
00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:32,560
running back going to where the
lane's supposed to be, I'm going

917
00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:34,080
to Kick It Out because they fill
in their laps.

918
00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:36,600
I'm going to try to get to the
edge and then the next thing you

919
00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:40,680
know is 7 yards for loss.
That's what that's what we're

920
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:41,960
talking about.
All right.

921
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,720
And you are right, Tally.
Before we get to know the enemy

922
00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:48,240
for the Louisville Cardinals, we
are going to take a quick fall

923
00:50:48,240 --> 00:50:50,480
for my digital partners and Main
Street Pharmacy.

924
00:50:52,320 --> 00:50:54,880
I can probably save you a lot of
money and I can take a lot

925
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:56,880
better care of you.
That's pretty much it.

926
00:50:57,360 --> 00:50:59,480
My name is Jeremy Counts and I'm
a pharmacist.

927
00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:02,080
I own and operate Main Street
Pharmacy here in downtown

928
00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,200
Blacksburg.
My brother's a pharmacist.

929
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:05,680
I'm a pharmacist.
My uncle's a pharmacist.

930
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:07,840
My dad's a pharmacist.
I remember he would give me M

931
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:10,320
and Ms. to count in little pill
counters.

932
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:13,160
This is something I've always
done, and I'm just lucky that

933
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:16,800
what I know so well is something
that I can do and feel good

934
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:18,000
about it and give back to
people.

935
00:51:18,720 --> 00:51:20,440
Pharmacies are your frontline
defense.

936
00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:23,680
Pharmacy's job is to make sure
you're getting optimal care for

937
00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:27,160
the lowest price possible.
Also, we take the pressure off

938
00:51:27,240 --> 00:51:29,280
of emergency rooms.
I'll tell people immediately

939
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:31,080
when they need to go to the
doctor, or I'll tell them if

940
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:32,720
they just need a cream over the
counter.

941
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:35,720
If there's something that isn't
commercially available, if it's

942
00:51:35,720 --> 00:51:38,400
something that's not available
in a certain strength or a

943
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:41,080
certain form or anything like
that, we'll make it tailor made

944
00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:42,840
medications.
Some of those options save

945
00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:44,760
people a lot of money.

947

That's all neat.

954
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:14,800
Now back to the episode.
All righty, So now let's do know

955
00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:16,320
the enemy.
Let's take a look at the

956
00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,600
Louisville Cardinals and let's
start on the offensive side of

957
00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:21,040
the ball.
Yeah, they got their masks back

958
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:22,720
out.
Joker's here.

959
00:52:22,720 --> 00:52:25,040
All right, Brian, let's start
with the offense.

960
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:28,600
Let's talk about the offensive
scheme for this team.

961
00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:34,400
Yeah man, we're we got the Jeff
and Brian Braun, the Brown

962
00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:36,080
brothers running the offense
here.

963
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:39,240
This is a multiple up tempo
spread.

964
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:43,600
They run a lot of Prostyle looks
as well, very predicated on the

965
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:46,320
success of the run game and
staying on schedule.

966
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,560
And they attack the whole field.
But that short catch and run,

967
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:54,560
that's really their bread and
butter and that's that's where

968
00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:57,840
they make their most successful
plays is off.

969
00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:01,120
They catch and run in the short
passing game and also being able

970
00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:05,320
to run the football effectively
to set all those things up when

971
00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:08,600
they take a a shot deep.
And they're also not afraid of

972
00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:10,920
trick plays or you're probably
going to see a trick play here

973
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:13,080
or there throughout the game.
So look for that as well.

974
00:53:13,800 --> 00:53:17,560
A making us stay on our toes.
We did it twice last week.

975
00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:21,040
We know that I want to make 1.4.
Brian starts getting into the

976
00:53:21,040 --> 00:53:23,520
players here and we start
looking at them.

977
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:26,440
Something that's very
interesting about them.

978
00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:31,760
They are not a good third down
conversion team. 37, 1/2%,

979
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:34,800
that's that's not a good number.
You don't want to be down into

980
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:38,720
that under 40%.
But here's the craziest part

981
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:45,160
they get, you know.
They've only gotten 21st downs

982
00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:48,800
on 3rd down.
Everything else, almost 75% is

983
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:51,280
on 1st and 2nd.
I know Shelton loves to say it.

984
00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:53,080
It's more what you do on 1st and
2nd.

985
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,560
To me, I think about this game
right now.

986
00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:59,480
We've got to get them there.
We've got to get them to 3rd

987
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:00,800
down.
I think that's going to be one

988
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:03,840
of our big keys.
Brian, let's talk about Jack

989
00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:06,680
Plummer.
He's a six foot five ��215

990
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:10,920
quarterback, Gilbert AZ and
Gilbert High School.

991
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:14,680
He was a transfer from Cal, well
last season of Cali had a pretty

992
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:19,160
good year where he threw for
over 3000 yards, 21 touchdown, 9

993
00:54:19,160 --> 00:54:21,800
picks.
He had been committed or had

994
00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:27,120
played previously under Braun at
Purdue where he was in 88 as a

995
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:31,640
class of 2018.
So he's older, I know you've got

996
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:37,600
some info on that.
And so far this year, 2018 yards

997
00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:42,880
13 and a. 13 touchdowns, but
eight picks through just eight

998
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,720
games.
So a little loose with the ball.

999
00:54:45,720 --> 00:54:49,200
Brian, what do you think?
Yeah, I mean, as you said, he's

1000
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:53,240
a COVID year super senior and
was really a late bloomer in

1001
00:54:53,240 --> 00:55:00,920
terms of his time out There was
kind of in a battle back in 2021

1002
00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:03,920
when he was still at Purdue and
lost.

1003
00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:06,200
That battle ended up
transferring.

1004
00:55:06,560 --> 00:55:08,840
Had a pretty good season, that
Cal.

1005
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:14,560
And then decided to use that
super senior final year to take

1006
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:17,280
a chance on himself, go back
with Braun and can get in this

1007
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:21,520
offense.
So what I what I like about him

1008
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,320
watching his game he he makes
really quick decisions and gets

1009
00:55:24,320 --> 00:55:28,880
rid of the football pretty
quickly from a rushing

1010
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:31,480
standpoint.
You'll see some occasional

1011
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:35,440
quarterback keepers, just mostly
to keep the defense honest.

1012
00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:37,840
He's not a rushing threat.
He will sometimes break the

1013
00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:39,960
pocket.
But usually when he does that,

1014
00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:42,080
he's looking to throw.
He's only scrambling if it's a

1015
00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:45,600
wide open lane there.
He's accurate in the short and

1016
00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:49,480
intermediate passing game.
Does take a shot here there, but

1017
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:52,960
that's not really his strength.
But what he does, he does get

1018
00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:56,000
into trouble when that first
read isn't open or or when he

1019
00:55:56,000 --> 00:56:00,080
trusts his arm too much.
He does have a really good arm,

1020
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,880
but sometimes he trusts that arm
too much and put the ball into

1021
00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:05,240
harm's way.
So as Curtis said, he will throw

1022
00:56:05,240 --> 00:56:08,040
some interceptions in there.
So that's what you're going to

1023
00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:09,520
get with plumber.
You're going to get a guy that

1024
00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:12,720
can kind of carve you up in the
short intermediate game.

1025
00:56:12,720 --> 00:56:15,840
But if you can get some pressure
on him, make him go a little bit

1026
00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:18,440
quicker than he's ready to make
him throw the ball further down

1027
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:21,200
field, you might get some some
pick opportunities there.

1028
00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:23,640
Very nice, Tally.
Who we looking at next?

1029
00:56:24,040 --> 00:56:26,680
Yeah, the person who he's
throwing the ball to most of the

1030
00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:33,040
time is Jabari Thrash.
He's about 6-1, about one 85190.

1031
00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:38,680
He's from LaGrange, GA 2019 kid.
He transferred to Louisville

1032
00:56:38,680 --> 00:56:44,000
from Georgia State.
So this is his first year with

1033
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:50,720
Louisville.
He was a 83 composite ranking

1034
00:56:50,720 --> 00:56:55,040
out of high school.
Didn't have many big offers.

1035
00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:58,080
Georgia State.
Arkansas State.

1036
00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:03,280
He had some looks from Georgia
Tech but didn't have an offer.

1037
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:06,200
So Georgia Southern.
A couple of others that he had

1038
00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:09,240
offers from him.
So no, no big schools really

1039
00:57:09,240 --> 00:57:13,520
there.
And he's been you know he's been

1040
00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:19,080
their guy on offense.
He has about 712 yards receiving

1041
00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:23,480
so far this year.
Pulling it up right now.

1042
00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:30,000
Yeah, yeah, he say.
What now?

1043
00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:35,680
You're efforting, Yeah.
He's got 7 hundred, 712 yards, 6

1044
00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:39,200
touchdowns.
His long being 85 yards.

1045
00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:45,680
Brian, what you got on him?
Yeah man, he's he's a big time

1046
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:47,560
threat man.
They really use him every, every

1047
00:57:47,560 --> 00:57:50,040
level of the defense, most of
the route tree is available to

1048
00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:52,680
him.
Bread and butter is kind of

1049
00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:55,640
that, that that short stuff,
intermediate stuff that he can.

1050
00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:58,720
Kind of get a catch and run
opportunity when he's got some

1051
00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:02,760
space there to operate and
taking those long distances, but

1052
00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:05,120
they will throw the deep ball to
him as well, usually off that

1053
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:07,040
play action.
So.

1054
00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:10,080
So look for him to really kind
of hurt you at every level of

1055
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:12,200
the defense.
He's a guy you got to keep keep

1056
00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:15,120
an eye on the whole time, man.
Yeah.

1057
00:58:15,440 --> 00:58:17,680
Absolutely.
And one last piece about him.

1058
00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:22,320
Teammates with Derek Canteen for
the last several years at

1059
00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:25,360
Georgia State.
So maybe we get a little Intel.

1060
00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:28,320
He went to, he went to State
canteen with the Southern.

1061
00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:30,480
Oh shoot, not that doesn't went
to State.

1062
00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:34,520
No Canteen went to Georgia
Southern, but he went to Georgia

1063
00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:36,600
State.
And I've got a buddy here that I

1064
00:58:36,600 --> 00:58:39,800
sold cars with.
His son transferred from Georgia

1065
00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:43,360
State to USC this year.
So Southern Cal.

1066
00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:47,280
His name is Jamil Muhammad.
So I've watched Jamil play and

1067
00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:51,560
I've seen this kid play before
this year and he is really

1068
00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:54,080
talented, so.
He's definitely got to keep our

1069
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,080
own Jamari thrash and something
real quick.

1070
00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:59,120
We were, we were, we were
shooting the breeze about this

1071
00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:03,440
right before you take a look
after Jamari thrash, nobody's

1072
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:07,200
over 300 yards.
Nobody's over 300 yards.

1073
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:12,520
The highest next perception.
He's got 46 perceptions. 17

1074
00:59:13,120 --> 00:59:18,640
That's a big stinking gap
between wide outs, and one

1075
00:59:18,640 --> 00:59:21,760
reason it can be a big stinking
gap between wide outs is because

1076
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:27,600
of their running back Jahar and.
Jordan, 5 foot 10185 pounds,

1077
00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:29,640
hometown of Long Island, New
York.

1078
00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:36,440
Originally a commit to Syracuse
way back in 2018.

1079
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:41,280
He was a three star composite.
Played an 88 with 247.

1080
00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:43,640
Played a couple years, therefore
he transferred down to

1081
00:59:43,640 --> 00:59:46,720
Louisville.
Had a solid season last year

1082
00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:51,120
with over 815 yards and he is
not only surpassed that already

1083
00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:54,960
this year, he's blown by his
touchdown numbers as well and

1084
00:59:54,960 --> 00:59:59,680
his average yards per carry 824.
This year, 7 1/2 per carry, 10

1085
00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:03,320
touchdowns and Bryan is he used
out of the backfield.

1086
01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:08,920
Thumb Not not a ton.
He'll he'll get a couple catches

1087
01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:12,640
a game, but he's not he's not
any sort of primary weapon that

1088
01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:14,440
they're using in the in the
passing attack.

1089
01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:18,280
What he is really good at is he.
He has great vision at the point

1090
01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:20,960
of point of attack.
He can be a home run hitter.

1091
01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:23,040
He's got that type of elite
speed.

1092
01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:25,960
Like I said, good.
He shows good hands out of the

1093
01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:29,040
backfield, but they don't really
target him that heavily in that

1094
01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:34,400
in that mode they'll
occasionally throw kind of a

1095
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:36,880
screen here or there.
They'll throw screens to their

1096
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:40,520
wide outs, you know, screens the
tight end.

1097
01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:42,480
So they'll they'll they'll throw
some screens that's in their

1098
01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:46,280
repertoire, but it's not
something that they target him a

1099
01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:48,880
ton on.
But he is the absolutely the

1100
01:00:48,880 --> 01:00:50,160
engine that makes that offense
go.

1101
01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:52,880
If he has a rough game, they're
going to have a a tough time

1102
01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:56,200
scoring the football.
So if we can stop him, we can

1103
01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:59,520
make them one-dimensional.
That's a good sign for us.

1104
01:00:59,840 --> 01:01:01,480
Yeah, Brian was mentioning to
us.

1105
01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:04,280
All right, before we jumped on,
when he went down in that pit

1106
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:06,360
game, that offense sort of fell
apart.

1107
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:09,320
And it did.
And we and we know what pit is.

1108
01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:13,200
We know what Pit is and and NC
State contained them and they

1109
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:16,200
they put up 13 points.
They put up, they NC State

1110
01:01:16,200 --> 01:01:17,680
should have won that game.
We were mentioning it.

1111
01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:19,240
Brendan Armstrong had been the
quarterback.

1112
01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:20,880
NC State would have won that
game.

1113
01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:25,040
So Brian, I'm going to let you.
I don't want to say it because I

1114
01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:26,640
was sad when I had to say it
earlier.

1115
01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:28,920
Let's talk about their offensive
line and who's it led by?

1116
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:32,040
Well, it's led by a guy named
Brian Hudson.

1117
01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:36,240
So when when you when you think
about that and you think about a

1118
01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:39,240
few years back and what could
have been that, that definitely

1119
01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:42,960
makes you sad because we could
really use a Brian Hudson on

1120
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:46,360
this offensive line right now.
And a Doug master And a Doug

1121
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:49,560
master.
Yeah, yeah, you have those two.

1122
01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:52,480
You're looking pretty good.
Yeah, you're looking pretty damn

1123
01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:55,200
good.
But yeah, so that.

1124
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:58,400
But that's another, that's
another former Hokie that's

1125
01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:03,920
that's shining elsewhere, graded
very highly in PFF last year, is

1126
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:06,560
putting out another good
campaign so far this year,

1127
01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:11,400
locking down that center spot.
And he's he's really the guy

1128
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:14,960
that that helps that team be
able to run like they do.

1129
01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:16,640
I mean he's very, very good in
the run game.

1130
01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:20,760
So that's something to keep an
eye on.

1131
01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:23,680
Obviously the rest of their
offensive line, solid run

1132
01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:25,560
blocking, especially gap
schemes.

1133
01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:30,600
When they pull those, those
guards and and and tackles, they

1134
01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:32,680
do a pretty good job of clearing
things out there.

1135
01:02:34,080 --> 01:02:37,480
They do a good job blocking in
the screen game guys get up to

1136
01:02:37,480 --> 01:02:40,280
the next level, get a get a hat
on a hat, give them some

1137
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:43,560
opportunities to kind of operate
in open space there.

1138
01:02:44,040 --> 01:02:47,640
But pasper's a mixed bag.
Their their tackles are only OK.

1139
01:02:49,200 --> 01:02:53,320
They the garden tackle
combinations sometimes with if

1140
01:02:53,320 --> 01:02:56,560
you can run some stunts or some
some blitzes at them, sometimes

1141
01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:59,040
they can get confused and they
stay, struggle with blitz, pick

1142
01:02:59,040 --> 01:03:02,400
up off that edge pretty well.
So if we're attacking off the

1143
01:03:02,400 --> 01:03:07,920
edge with Kianta or or Kalai
Lawson on the other side, I

1144
01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:08,960
think we're going to be all
right.

1145
01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:11,760
All righty.
So get home all.

1146
01:03:12,320 --> 01:03:14,080
Right.
So there is the offense again.

1147
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:18,440
You know, this is a pretty
dangerous offensive team and you

1148
01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:21,080
see the weapons and you see how
much they're scoring.

1149
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:26,120
So it's good to have knowing
some news notes on the way they

1150
01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:28,280
like to do things.
We appreciate that, Brian.

1151
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:31,200
All right.
Brian's work's never done.

1152
01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:33,320
Next he has to go look at the
defense.

1153
01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:37,560
And Brian, let's talk about this
defense and because it is a

1154
01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:40,040
change, right, because they were
a four, three last year under

1155
01:03:40,040 --> 01:03:43,560
Brian Brown with Scott 3/4. 340
excuse me?

1156
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,080
3/4 what?
They have changed completely

1157
01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:49,800
this year?
Yeah, you're looking at a 425

1158
01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:54,520
scheme they employ that stand up
defensive end that we've seen a

1159
01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:59,440
couple times this season.
We'll shift into kind of a 245

1160
01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:02,360
nickel package when they're
trying to get after the passer

1161
01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:04,600
on those those third long
situations.

1162
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:10,480
Not super blitz heavy as much as
you would think for a 4/2, but

1163
01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:12,680
they would do like to bring
pressure and they will shift the

1164
01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:16,480
fronts to create confusion.
So, you know, not, not something

1165
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:20,320
we're unfamiliar with here, but
probably a little less

1166
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:23,960
aggressive, leaning a little bit
more on their defensive line to

1167
01:04:23,960 --> 01:04:25,760
get some some pressure on the
quarterback.

1168
01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:28,200
Yeah.
And that group is led by Mark

1169
01:04:28,200 --> 01:04:30,720
Hagan and Ron English.
They are a Code DC unit.

1170
01:04:31,240 --> 01:04:35,000
Watching that game on Saturday
afternoon, English is the play

1171
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:37,320
caller.
They mentioned that several

1172
01:04:37,320 --> 01:04:39,960
times.
But something that I found very

1173
01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:43,680
interesting and and and this
really piqued my interest was

1174
01:04:44,840 --> 01:04:46,840
they are 19th in the country in
sacks.

1175
01:04:46,840 --> 01:04:48,760
That's that's pretty good,
right?

1176
01:04:48,800 --> 01:04:51,200
You top 25 in sacks, you're
getting to the quarterback.

1177
01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:55,720
Usually you see that it
correlates to tackles for loss.

1178
01:04:56,040 --> 01:05:00,240
They're not big on that, 70th in
the country in tackle for loss.

1179
01:05:00,640 --> 01:05:03,480
And Brian, they do have a really
good.

1180
01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:08,560
The defensive end that is making
some hay.

1181
01:05:08,920 --> 01:05:12,680
He is pretty high up in the
country as far as it comes to

1182
01:05:12,680 --> 01:05:15,160
total sacks.
He's got like 8 1/2.

1183
01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:23,760
Let's talk about Ashton Gillett
who is a six foot three ��270

1184
01:05:24,120 --> 01:05:29,160
defensive end out of Boca Raton
FL class of 2021 and 85.

1185
01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:31,840
All he was was an 85 when he
came out.

1186
01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:34,160
Biggest offers.
This is where you always look at

1187
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:36,560
those stories.
Maryland, Duke, Kansas.

1188
01:05:36,560 --> 01:05:38,960
Wake Forest for some of his big
offers.

1189
01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:43,760
And he, I said 8 1/2 sacks.
Excuse me.

1190
01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:47,040
Yeah, 8 1/2 sacks so far this
year, 27 tackles.

1191
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:51,000
He's forced a couple fumbles.
He's he's balling.

1192
01:05:51,040 --> 01:05:53,960
And what can we do to stop him
and what's he show?

1193
01:05:55,200 --> 01:05:57,720
Yeah, I mean you know, typically
he's the hand in the dirt

1194
01:05:57,720 --> 01:06:00,960
defensive end that they will
kind of have him standing up

1195
01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:02,920
depending on the alignment.
But usually he's the guy with

1196
01:06:02,920 --> 01:06:05,640
the end of the dirt.
He's coming hard off the edge,

1197
01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:10,680
really good against the run.
Will also be very good in the in

1198
01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:16,000
the pass rush game here, steady
when they run at him, but plays

1199
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:19,240
flat and fast and in pursuit.
So he does good there as well.

1200
01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:21,760
But he does get after the
quarterback, especially if you

1201
01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:23,000
give him one-on-one
opportunities.

1202
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:25,680
He can be neutralized a little
bit when you run another guy at

1203
01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:29,400
him, but obviously that's going
to take away from, you know,

1204
01:06:29,400 --> 01:06:31,480
protection elsewhere if you're
doing that consistently.

1205
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:34,520
So when he gets one-on-one
opportunities he can get after

1206
01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:36,200
the quarterback pretty good.
Yep.

1207
01:06:36,240 --> 01:06:37,440
And I was mentioning where he
was.

1208
01:06:37,480 --> 01:06:41,720
He's 5th in the country in
sacks, 5th AP, RS4.

1209
01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:43,680
There's only three guys in front
of them.

1210
01:06:44,120 --> 01:06:47,080
And there is only one Power Five
guy in front of those two, and

1211
01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:51,240
that's Jonah Ellis out at Utah.
So those boys are doing work

1212
01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:53,400
regardless.
All right, I want to flip.

1213
01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:56,720
Let's go back one unit.
Let's talk about the defense.

1214
01:06:56,720 --> 01:07:00,880
Excuse me, the linebacker room.
And I looked and he caught my

1215
01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:07,000
eye, was TJ Quinn.
TJ Quinn out of Valdosta, GA

1216
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:13,640
Loudon's a 2021 recruit. 85 Not
a big recruit if you go to his

1217
01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:16,920
247 page everybody.
On hokey jersey.

1218
01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:21,240
Hokey jersey, He was a He
officially visited the Hokies

1219
01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:25,400
back in 2020.
He was on our radar, and now

1220
01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:28,800
he's down at Louisville so far
this year.

1221
01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:33,120
Get the stat line up here.
He was one of them.

1222
01:07:33,120 --> 01:07:34,640
Silence, wasn't he?
Yeah.

1223
01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:40,240
Of course.
Silent, Silent 62 total tackles.

1224
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:46,400
One formal recovery, couple pass
deflections and you know the

1225
01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:50,240
last couple weeks he's had
really good weeks. 19 total

1226
01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:56,760
tackles between Pitt and Duke
and pass deflection and a 1 1/2

1227
01:07:56,760 --> 01:08:00,080
tackles for loss.
Brian Where is he playing

1228
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:03,640
exactly and what do we need to
be wary of him for?

1229
01:08:04,280 --> 01:08:07,760
Yeah, he's playing that safety
spot, really balance safety.

1230
01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:11,520
They kind of use him both as a
ball hawk and in run support.

1231
01:08:13,360 --> 01:08:17,160
Great zone coverage defender.
He's decent a man, but he can't

1232
01:08:17,160 --> 01:08:19,680
get caught in space with some
double moves.

1233
01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:23,399
So if we're running at him,
throw a little double move on

1234
01:08:23,399 --> 01:08:24,840
there.
Getting a little shifty might

1235
01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:28,120
might get turned around a little
bit, but he does a good job of

1236
01:08:28,120 --> 01:08:31,680
filling in the running game.
He gets there.

1237
01:08:31,680 --> 01:08:34,479
He's not the best tackler.
He's not the most sure tackler,

1238
01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:39,120
but he is a willing hitter when
he got comes in the box and you

1239
01:08:39,120 --> 01:08:42,240
know as you said he's a guy that
we've seen kind of a lot of the

1240
01:08:42,240 --> 01:08:44,160
years.
We saw him a lot with the that

1241
01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:46,960
that UNC match up in the
Coastal.

1242
01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:53,640
So we're very familiar with the
with with with his game and it's

1243
01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:58,000
interesting how we almost had
this as the match up that we

1244
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:01,640
would have been talking about in
in three weeks and four, four

1245
01:09:01,640 --> 01:09:05,279
weeks at this point instead of
talking today because he was, he

1246
01:09:05,279 --> 01:09:11,840
did play the spring game at UVA.
So it's been a weird journey for

1247
01:09:11,840 --> 01:09:16,319
Cameron Kelly, from a hokey
silent commit to a UVA spring

1248
01:09:16,319 --> 01:09:19,439
practice participant to now a
Louisville starting safety.

1249
01:09:19,439 --> 01:09:21,200
So.
Definitely.

1250
01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:23,080
Definitely.
When you talk about Cameron

1251
01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:31,000
Kelly, he was committed to
Virginia Tech and then he went

1252
01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:33,200
to Auburn.
Then he transferred from Auburn

1253
01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:36,479
and he went to North Carolina.
Then he transferred from North

1254
01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:40,680
Carolina and went to UVA.
Then he never played at UVA and

1255
01:09:40,680 --> 01:09:45,200
went to Louisville.
So he's been kind of all over

1256
01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:48,040
the place.
But he's having a good year this

1257
01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:51,240
year.
He's going to be, you know, he's

1258
01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:55,200
going to be tough to tough wild
wide receivers to get loose on.

1259
01:09:55,200 --> 01:09:57,760
So I'm just excited to see what
they can do.

1260
01:09:59,280 --> 01:10:02,920
Absolutely, Absolutely, boys.
So now we got that.

1261
01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:05,640
We got the key players on each
side of the ball we feel could

1262
01:10:05,640 --> 01:10:07,800
have impacts or potentially
guys.

1263
01:10:07,800 --> 01:10:11,040
If we can take out of the game,
especially the offense, we take

1264
01:10:11,160 --> 01:10:14,320
any one of those two offensive
weapons out of the game, it will

1265
01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:17,200
drastically hurt that team.
We've got to talk about our

1266
01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:20,480
keys, Brian, you've been talking
a lot, so I'm going to let Tally

1267
01:10:20,480 --> 01:10:22,640
leave this one so you can get a
little sip of water and catch

1268
01:10:22,640 --> 01:10:25,720
your breath.
Tally, what's your key to this

1269
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:28,480
game?
Get on that quarterback's ass.

1270
01:10:29,400 --> 01:10:31,160
He showed you he can throw
picks.

1271
01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,040
He showed you he will throw
picks.

1272
01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:37,680
He can throw touchdowns too.
He's got 13 touchdowns and eight

1273
01:10:37,680 --> 01:10:40,040
picks.
Hey, I like our chances.

1274
01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:43,760
If we get it, if we pressure
him, if we, he's not going to

1275
01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:47,560
kill you running the ball.
Like Brian said, he may move

1276
01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:50,160
around the pocket a little bit,
but he's not going to escape and

1277
01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:53,240
you know, hit you 450 yard
touchdown.

1278
01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:56,520
You got to get pressure on him
and if anybody can get pressure

1279
01:10:56,520 --> 01:10:58,520
on him, I'm going to say the
Hokies can get pressure on him.

1280
01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:02,360
We got one of the best SAC
leaders, one of the best SAC

1281
01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:04,520
Titians in the country on our
team.

1282
01:11:05,720 --> 01:11:08,680
Hey, go get after them this
week.

1283
01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:11,800
It's time to put up a shut up.
This is a big week.

1284
01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:13,120
We've said this every week,
Curtis.

1285
01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:19,800
I know this weight game is huge.
This, this, this pit game is

1286
01:11:19,800 --> 01:11:22,520
huge.
This Syracuse game is huge.

1287
01:11:22,520 --> 01:11:26,080
But really, this game here,
you're going on the road.

1288
01:11:26,680 --> 01:11:30,920
And you're playing a ranked
team, you know, and whoever wins

1289
01:11:30,920 --> 01:11:34,600
this game is in second place in
the ACC.

1290
01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:39,320
There are no more divisions.
So this is a huge game.

1291
01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:46,720
This is a this is a game where
Virginia Tech can put themselves

1292
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:50,880
on the map more than they are.
Brett Pratt can solidify his

1293
01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:55,640
coaching career here.
And this team this season, man,

1294
01:11:55,640 --> 01:11:56,960
they've they've turned it
around.

1295
01:11:58,280 --> 01:11:59,720
They've turned it around
already.

1296
01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:02,480
But you know, we still got big
goals.

1297
01:12:02,600 --> 01:12:04,960
You know, like I said from the
beginning, I said, hey, just

1298
01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:07,840
give you to a bowl game.
These guys may be looking for

1299
01:12:07,840 --> 01:12:10,960
ACC championship, man.
And I got, I got to say this

1300
01:12:10,960 --> 01:12:14,160
before I let y'all say what you
said because Grayson wanted me

1301
01:12:14,160 --> 01:12:16,160
to tell Shelton.
But you know, Shelton's not only

1302
01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:20,880
here tonight, Grayson said.
Sheldon, you got to quit telling

1303
01:12:20,880 --> 01:12:23,480
people that.
They can't dream about the ACC

1304
01:12:23,480 --> 01:12:25,840
championship.
Let us dream.

1305
01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:29,600
That's what Grayson said.
He, and I think his worst was

1306
01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:35,200
tell Shelton to kick rocks.
I'm just saying, I'm just saying

1307
01:12:35,240 --> 01:12:38,040
you Shelton, I don't think
you're feeling good tonight,

1308
01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:40,640
man, but when you watch this,
Grayson said.

1309
01:12:40,640 --> 01:12:44,040
Let let Hokey Nation have this.
They want to.

1310
01:12:44,040 --> 01:12:47,120
They want to get this.
They want to get to this ACC

1311
01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:50,880
championship.
Mr. Drones What's going on, my

1312
01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:53,240
friend?
Mr. Jones, how are you doing

1313
01:12:53,240 --> 01:12:55,680
tonight?
Good to have you along with us.

1314
01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:59,920
And Brian, I am going to pitch
back to you now because we

1315
01:12:59,920 --> 01:13:02,040
usually do 4.
Shelton's not here, so I'm going

1316
01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:04,760
to take the two at the end and I
know you got one on the

1317
01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:07,360
offensive side of the ball.
Yeah, it really.

1318
01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:10,400
I mean, it's holds true on both
sides of the ball.

1319
01:13:11,080 --> 01:13:14,960
You got to be effective on 1st
downs, stay on schedule as an

1320
01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:19,160
offense, and on the other side
we need to stop them for being

1321
01:13:19,160 --> 01:13:22,800
effective on 1st downs.
That way we can get pressure on

1322
01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:25,920
that quarterback, make him make
some mistakes, get those sacks,

1323
01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:28,800
get those interceptions.
So that's the key for me.

1324
01:13:29,080 --> 01:13:32,360
Go out there and be effective on
both sides of the ball on 1st

1325
01:13:32,360 --> 01:13:34,920
down.
Get us into a situation that's

1326
01:13:34,920 --> 01:13:36,800
favorable.
Keep them in unfavorable

1327
01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:40,680
situations.
All right, so I got two.

1328
01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:43,720
The first I've kind of already
alluded to.

1329
01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:47,840
We've got to get them to 3rd
down, get them to 3rd down.

1330
01:13:48,320 --> 01:13:52,000
Where they seem to struggle for
whatever reason, I'm going to

1331
01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:56,040
assume, Brian, you tell me if
I'm right or am I going down the

1332
01:13:56,040 --> 01:13:58,200
right Rd.
The reason being that sort of

1333
01:13:58,200 --> 01:14:01,560
tempo offense, If you're getting
them in the third, they haven't

1334
01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:06,720
probably hit a good play right?
If if you're getting them to

1335
01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:10,400
third, number one, you can't run
tempo out of unless you pick up

1336
01:14:10,400 --> 01:14:12,840
that first down #2.
If you're trying to run the

1337
01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:16,280
tempo, that means you've had two
plays that have not been what

1338
01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:21,320
you would call successful plays.
They might have been good enough

1339
01:14:21,320 --> 01:14:25,200
to get you in a third and short
situation, but they are not what

1340
01:14:25,200 --> 01:14:27,640
you really want to see from a
tempo, situation, tempo.

1341
01:14:27,640 --> 01:14:29,640
You want to be successful on 1st
and 2nd.

1342
01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:32,160
You want to keep the defense on
the heat their heels.

1343
01:14:32,360 --> 01:14:36,080
You want any third down you get
to to be a third and one or two

1344
01:14:36,080 --> 01:14:37,400
yards.
There we go.

1345
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:40,320
And if they're if they get it,
they're not hitting tempo, it

1346
01:14:40,320 --> 01:14:43,720
probably means they did not hit
at least A5 plus play.

1347
01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:47,400
The second piece, and I said it
earlier, we need takeaways.

1348
01:14:47,400 --> 01:14:50,080
If you go look back at the pit
game and you look at the NC

1349
01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:53,960
State game, they turn the ball
over multiple times.

1350
01:14:54,480 --> 01:14:57,960
I think we need three.
I think we need 3 turnovers in

1351
01:14:57,960 --> 01:15:01,520
this game and now we got to go
make our predictions boys.

1352
01:15:02,800 --> 01:15:04,760
Prediction and Our big
screeners, which we're going to

1353
01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:07,240
talk about, is presented by
prize picks.

1354
01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:09,960
Our big Screener segment always
presented by Prize picks.

1355
01:15:09,960 --> 01:15:13,080
Prize Pick, a daily fantasy app
where you make entries based on

1356
01:15:13,080 --> 01:15:15,920
player projected outcomes.
This week I'm going to tell you

1357
01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:18,280
what I'm going with.
The Jets are playing the

1358
01:15:18,280 --> 01:15:22,400
Chargers.
Justin Herbert's at 267 1/2.

1359
01:15:22,600 --> 01:15:25,360
Go under because The Jets are a
really good defense.

1360
01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:29,480
Zach Wilson's at 198 1/2.
Zach Wilson's not a good

1361
01:15:29,480 --> 01:15:31,120
quarterback?
Go under.

1362
01:15:31,800 --> 01:15:34,480
Make the two unders in that and
that should help you make a

1363
01:15:34,480 --> 01:15:38,000
little bit of money for the
prize picks.

1364
01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:43,480
So again prize picks they will
match up to any deposit up to

1365
01:15:43,480 --> 01:15:47,640
$100 when you sign up using the
code BC PIX QR CODE there on the

1366
01:15:47,640 --> 01:15:50,000
screen or boundary corner dot BC
PIX.

1367
01:15:50,640 --> 01:15:52,360
I do not have our records from
last week.

1368
01:15:52,360 --> 01:15:54,760
I didn't forgot to pull it up.
I don't think it was great,

1369
01:15:55,320 --> 01:15:57,000
honestly.
Mine's never great.

1370
01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:00,680
Fatally, Fatally.
As always all.

1371
01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:04,680
Right.
So I'm going to lead this

1372
01:16:05,160 --> 01:16:10,400
because as much as my heart
wants to do it, my head cannot

1373
01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:12,480
do it because I say we need 3
turnovers.

1374
01:16:12,720 --> 01:16:16,360
I think we get 2, but I think we
lose a war against Louisville at

1375
01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:21,280
Louisville 3330.
That that stupid line that came

1376
01:16:21,280 --> 01:16:24,040
out of 12 1/2, that's already
went down to 10.

1377
01:16:24,760 --> 01:16:26,960
If I'm betting against the
spread, give me the Hokies all

1378
01:16:26,960 --> 01:16:29,440
day because I do think we're
going to be able to keep up with

1379
01:16:29,440 --> 01:16:31,200
them.
They have shown they are a good

1380
01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:33,520
defense, but they have shown
flaws at times.

1381
01:16:34,040 --> 01:16:40,200
I do think kind of drones is the
most dynamic quarterback they

1382
01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:43,760
will have seen all year.
Honestly, I don't think they'll

1383
01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:45,480
see anybody else like him all
year.

1384
01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:53,000
So Louisville win, Hokies cover.
And I'm sad about that tally.

1385
01:16:54,560 --> 01:16:58,400
You know what, before we started
talking and before Brian gave me

1386
01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:01,800
all of the knowledge that he
gave me, I I was with you and

1387
01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:05,960
and would have said, you know,
the Hokies are cover, but

1388
01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:08,480
Louisville to win.
But I I'm going to, I'm going to

1389
01:17:08,480 --> 01:17:10,080
say the Hokies are going to pull
one out.

1390
01:17:10,640 --> 01:17:14,640
I'm going to say, you know, I'm,
I'm going to go with Hokies.

1391
01:17:15,440 --> 01:17:19,240
I don't know.
I want to go 20/28/21 is what

1392
01:17:19,240 --> 01:17:21,880
I'm going to do.
I just feel like.

1393
01:17:22,400 --> 01:17:27,160
With our defensive line playing,
how they're playing and how

1394
01:17:27,160 --> 01:17:30,000
they've been able to get to the
quarterback, I don't know if

1395
01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:32,240
their quarterback can handle the
pressure that's going to come to

1396
01:17:32,240 --> 01:17:33,240
him.
And I think he's going to turn

1397
01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:35,640
the ball over.
And I think we may get those 3

1398
01:17:35,640 --> 01:17:37,240
picks.
I mean, I think we may get those

1399
01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:38,800
3 turnovers that you say we
need.

1400
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:45,680
And I just think that how our
guys have responded, they know

1401
01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:49,680
what's at stake and I think
we're going to go in and I think

1402
01:17:49,680 --> 01:17:50,880
we're going to bring our own
guts.

1403
01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:55,880
I'm hoping this is the this is
what I'm hoping because we've

1404
01:17:55,880 --> 01:17:58,320
been a much different team on
the road than we've been at

1405
01:17:58,320 --> 01:18:01,480
home.
So I got AI got a ride with our

1406
01:18:01,480 --> 01:18:04,120
guys just because I'm not sold
on on Louisville.

1407
01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:07,120
Louisville's a good team but
Louisville show they got, you

1408
01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:09,720
know they've got a great
receiver and they've got a good

1409
01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:14,000
running game.
So if we can at least keep that

1410
01:18:14,000 --> 01:18:18,280
in check we got a chance there.
So I'm going to go Hokies 2821

1411
01:18:18,280 --> 01:18:20,640
all.
Right, Brian, what about you,

1412
01:18:20,760 --> 01:18:23,800
man?
Yeah, I'm going Hokies here too,

1413
01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:27,720
to cover.
I've got this one coming down to

1414
01:18:27,720 --> 01:18:31,160
the wire, man.
I think the Hokies are playing

1415
01:18:31,160 --> 01:18:36,160
with as much confidence as we've
seen in a good while, and I

1416
01:18:36,160 --> 01:18:38,200
think that's going to feed it.
I think it might just be a

1417
01:18:38,200 --> 01:18:41,240
little, little too much there at
the end with the home field

1418
01:18:41,240 --> 01:18:43,680
advantage.
I've got the Hokies losing a

1419
01:18:43,680 --> 01:18:50,040
tight 13127 Louisville.
I think it's something that you

1420
01:18:50,040 --> 01:18:53,200
can still have some solid
takeaways from, even in The

1421
01:18:53,200 --> 01:18:56,680
Lost, but I'm hoping it goes the
way Tally's talking, I tell.

1422
01:18:56,680 --> 01:19:02,360
You we we hoping Tally is right
on that one and you go and put

1423
01:19:02,360 --> 01:19:04,200
it up.
We did not get an official.

1424
01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:06,800
All we got from Shelton was
Virginia Tech.

1425
01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:09,840
We did not.
We're taking that as a as a

1426
01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:12,600
cover, not a win, until we hear
otherwise.

1427
01:19:12,680 --> 01:19:14,240
Until you.
Otherwise, we'll put it out

1428
01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:17,400
there and let you know.
Once he gives us again, Sheldon

1429
01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:19,240
under the weather tonight, not
going to be here with us.

1430
01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:23,640
All right, as always, we are
college football fans, second

1431
01:19:23,640 --> 01:19:26,320
after being Hokies fans.
And there are actually some good

1432
01:19:26,320 --> 01:19:29,000
games on the slate this week.
A couple over lappings.

1433
01:19:29,400 --> 01:19:30,880
But let's start with the first
one.

1434
01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:32,560
Brian.
I got this one up here.

1435
01:19:32,560 --> 01:19:36,000
Kansas State of Texas.
Huge game for the Big 12.

1436
01:19:36,520 --> 01:19:38,800
Huge game with Oklahoma losing
last week.

1437
01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:41,960
They're on the verge of losing
potentially their playoff spot.

1438
01:19:43,040 --> 01:19:45,560
And we got.
Kansas State rolling down into

1439
01:19:45,560 --> 01:19:48,400
Texas.
Kansas State blew the crap out

1440
01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:50,400
of Houston 41.
Nothing.

1441
01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:55,720
I think Texas is obviously Texas
is coming off a win and I think

1442
01:19:55,720 --> 01:20:03,600
for this one I think Texas is
good enough defensively to win

1443
01:20:03,600 --> 01:20:06,320
this one by touchdown.
I think it's going to be ugly,

1444
01:20:06,400 --> 01:20:10,520
low scoring affair, something
like 2013 Texas.

1445
01:20:13,920 --> 01:20:16,720
Yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm going
to take Texas as well.

1446
01:20:17,440 --> 01:20:19,520
In this game.
I didn't really have a score

1447
01:20:19,520 --> 01:20:23,240
prediction, but similar to what
Curtis is saying, I don't think

1448
01:20:23,240 --> 01:20:26,520
it's going to be, you know,
super high scoring or or or a

1449
01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:29,880
big blowout, but I think Texas
will win by a touchdown.

1450
01:20:29,880 --> 01:20:31,280
I just don't know the exact
number.

1451
01:20:34,600 --> 01:20:36,200
Michelle thought the same thing
there.

1452
01:20:36,200 --> 01:20:41,520
So he has Texas covering here
the the five line and so do I.

1453
01:20:41,760 --> 01:20:43,720
We're going across the board
back-to-back here.

1454
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:47,480
I think it it will be a low
scoring affair, but I think it's

1455
01:20:47,480 --> 01:20:51,720
going to be something like 2413
Texas.

1456
01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:56,160
All right, low scoring affairs
there in Austin on Saturday.

1457
01:20:56,640 --> 01:21:00,240
Got a big night game down in
Tally's neck of the woods Tally.

1458
01:21:00,240 --> 01:21:01,640
What's your game of the week,
Sir?

1459
01:21:02,400 --> 01:21:05,200
Bama and LSU?
Man, I remember when this Bama,

1460
01:21:05,200 --> 01:21:11,600
LSU game used to be like three
to six, six to nine, you know?

1461
01:21:12,080 --> 01:21:14,600
What I'm saying we we we saw
that game and then they gave it

1462
01:21:14,640 --> 01:21:16,320
to us again later in the year,
man.

1463
01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:20,280
Yeah, it would be dude.
It would be some ugly knock down

1464
01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:21,920
drag outs between these two
teams.

1465
01:21:22,280 --> 01:21:24,920
And I don't know if people know
a lot about Texas.

1466
01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:29,920
I mean about Alabama, LSU they
they really hate each other that

1467
01:21:29,920 --> 01:21:36,360
is that is two schools that are
are a a big rivalry for each

1468
01:21:36,360 --> 01:21:39,600
other.
So man I got to go I'm going to

1469
01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:44,000
go Bama on this man.
I mean I just I think Bama is is

1470
01:21:44,800 --> 01:21:48,640
hitting their stride.
I think they found out similar

1471
01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:52,120
to to how we did as far as their
quarterback situation.

1472
01:21:53,760 --> 01:21:55,840
Who's the quarterback and
they've endorsed him.

1473
01:22:01,320 --> 01:22:05,000
Froze up.
I'm just, I'm going to go

1474
01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:06,000
Alabama.
I don't know.

1475
01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:07,960
I don't have a score prediction,
but I'm, I'm going to say

1476
01:22:07,960 --> 01:22:09,440
Alabama and they're going to
cover.

1477
01:22:09,680 --> 01:22:11,040
Cover the four.
All righty.

1478
01:22:11,040 --> 01:22:14,440
What Shelton got there, Brian?
Shelton's going Bama here.

1479
01:22:15,000 --> 01:22:16,920
All right, I'm against y'all on
this one.

1480
01:22:17,320 --> 01:22:21,160
I think I don't know who wins
the game, but I think based on

1481
01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:23,480
there's been shaky play from
Alabama times, There's been

1482
01:22:23,480 --> 01:22:28,600
shaky play from LSU at times.
Still, to this day, Nick Saban

1483
01:22:28,600 --> 01:22:32,240
cannot figure out.
Guys who are athletic and

1484
01:22:32,240 --> 01:22:34,440
quarterback, he's always
struggled.

1485
01:22:35,360 --> 01:22:38,160
When you go back a decade ago,
he struggled, Tyrod, when they

1486
01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:40,160
were out telling us.
Same with Logan.

1487
01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:44,000
I think LSU is going to cover.
Give me the four.

1488
01:22:44,160 --> 01:22:46,240
I think you know what, this is
probably going to be an

1489
01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:48,160
entertaining night game to watch
because it is going to be an

1490
01:22:48,160 --> 01:22:50,200
8:00 kick.
So give me LSU.

1491
01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:53,320
Yep.
And we're We're both in the same

1492
01:22:53,320 --> 01:22:56,000
path there.
I took LSU as well.

1493
01:22:57,600 --> 01:23:00,440
I just think, as you said, man,
they struggle sometimes with

1494
01:23:00,440 --> 01:23:04,240
these athletic quarterbacks.
LS us got probably one of the

1495
01:23:04,240 --> 01:23:08,040
best ones in the country.
So give me LSU here.

1496
01:23:09,440 --> 01:23:11,360
I think LSU is going to win this
one outright.

1497
01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:16,680
So Bama will be eliminated from
playoff contention here.

1498
01:23:16,680 --> 01:23:19,040
Oh, there's going to be a lot of
crying if that happened down

1499
01:23:19,160 --> 01:23:22,200
here.
Man, you'll have to you have to

1500
01:23:22,200 --> 01:23:24,440
bring on one of their fans next
week so we can just hear it.

1501
01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:28,240
All righty.
I want whoever calls into some

1502
01:23:28,240 --> 01:23:30,120
of those SEC shows.
Man, Oh my gosh.

1503
01:23:32,160 --> 01:23:34,320
Tell me the truth, All right?
Brian, who you got?

1504
01:23:35,680 --> 01:23:41,040
I've got Mizzou and Georgia.
This line is kind of crazy to

1505
01:23:41,040 --> 01:23:43,520
me.
I was like, all right.

1506
01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:46,600
So if it floated out there at
16, I was like, let's grab that

1507
01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:50,120
one because I feel like.
Mizzou's kind of shown to be a a

1508
01:23:50,120 --> 01:23:54,920
tough out this year, so you
know, I'm I'm rolling with

1509
01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:56,400
Mizzou here.
I think it's going to be a lot

1510
01:23:56,400 --> 01:23:59,560
closer than folks are thinking.
I do think Georgia has figured

1511
01:23:59,840 --> 01:24:02,440
whatever they hadn't figured out
at the start of season out, they

1512
01:24:02,440 --> 01:24:06,480
look like a legit national
championship contender now.

1513
01:24:06,480 --> 01:24:09,720
They look like a team that was
probably going to make the

1514
01:24:09,720 --> 01:24:12,840
playoff but didn't look like
they could take GO all the way.

1515
01:24:12,840 --> 01:24:14,280
This year.
They're starting to look like

1516
01:24:14,280 --> 01:24:16,600
that team.
They've gelled a little bit.

1517
01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:19,320
I think that 16 line is still a
little fuzzy though.

1518
01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:21,600
I think it's probably about A2
touchdown game, but it doesn't

1519
01:24:21,600 --> 01:24:23,760
quite get to that 16.
No, it's not.

1520
01:24:24,720 --> 01:24:27,680
Y'all Georgia tricked us last
week, didn't they?

1521
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:31,320
Oh, 14 1/2 to Florida.
Yeah, Florida will hang in and

1522
01:24:31,920 --> 01:24:35,840
they beat them by like 26.
Yeah, Georgia.

1523
01:24:36,320 --> 01:24:41,240
Georgia by 234017, Man, I don't
know.

1524
01:24:41,240 --> 01:24:43,560
If I had to, if I was putting
some money on it, I might not do

1525
01:24:43,560 --> 01:24:45,760
it.
But I'm going Mizzou on this as

1526
01:24:45,760 --> 01:24:48,880
well, Brian, I kind of feel the
same way, you know, maybe about

1527
01:24:48,880 --> 01:24:54,080
14 points, but you know, two
touchdowns at the field goal.

1528
01:24:54,600 --> 01:24:56,280
I don't know, man.
I don't think Georgia is going

1529
01:24:56,280 --> 01:24:58,920
to beat them by that much.
Think Georgia wins, but not by,

1530
01:24:59,040 --> 01:25:01,120
not by more than 16 all.
Right.

1531
01:25:01,120 --> 01:25:04,480
What's Sheldon got on this one?
Sheldon is riding with us.

1532
01:25:04,480 --> 01:25:05,880
Man.
You're the odd man out here.

1533
01:25:05,920 --> 01:25:07,440
The.
Odd man out on this one.

1534
01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:09,960
Y'all going to be sitting here
after the Hokies pulled the

1535
01:25:09,960 --> 01:25:12,240
upset against Louisville.
Y'all going to turn over to CBS.

1536
01:25:12,720 --> 01:25:17,040
4930 Man, we should have
listened to Curtis all grief.

1537
01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:18,720
All righty.
By the way.

1538
01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:20,840
Next game we pull up.
This is Sheldon's choice.

1539
01:25:21,880 --> 01:25:24,280
Go ahead, pull it up, Brian.
Oklahoma.

1540
01:25:24,280 --> 01:25:25,600
Oklahoma State.
Bethlehem.

1541
01:25:26,360 --> 01:25:30,160
Always a crazy game.
For the foreseeable future, this

1542
01:25:30,160 --> 01:25:33,240
game will not be played with the
move.

1543
01:25:34,280 --> 01:25:37,560
I'm going to put this strictly
on Oklahoma because they the Big

1544
01:25:37,560 --> 01:25:40,160
Blue blood.
You know Oklahoma State wants to

1545
01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:42,320
play them every year.
You know they do.

1546
01:25:42,640 --> 01:25:45,320
So I'm putting this on Oklahoma.
If you're an Oklahoma fan out

1547
01:25:45,320 --> 01:25:48,080
there, why why don't you play
them every year?

1548
01:25:48,320 --> 01:25:49,240
Yeah.
Figure it out.

1549
01:25:49,600 --> 01:25:51,960
Figure it out.
Losing things like this, like we

1550
01:25:51,960 --> 01:25:54,960
lost Texas Texas A&M, which
we'll get back in a few years

1551
01:25:54,960 --> 01:26:00,000
here is sad.
But for this game, Oklahoma,

1552
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:03,520
Oklahoma State, Brian, I am not
sure what Shelton picked.

1553
01:26:04,640 --> 01:26:08,360
He's riding with Oklahoma, man.
He's riding with Boomer Sooner,

1554
01:26:08,360 --> 01:26:11,480
who are coming off their loss up
at Kansas, which.

1555
01:26:12,600 --> 01:26:14,520
I I was, did y'all see the end
of that game?

1556
01:26:14,520 --> 01:26:16,640
I know, Brian, you were doing a
bunch of stuff that you see the

1557
01:26:16,640 --> 01:26:18,200
end.
That was insane.

1558
01:26:18,640 --> 01:26:21,920
Yeah, it really was.
I picked Kansas to to cover in

1559
01:26:21,920 --> 01:26:25,080
that game, though, so I kind of
feel good about that, what

1560
01:26:25,080 --> 01:26:27,840
happened?
But I'm going to go Oklahoma in

1561
01:26:27,840 --> 01:26:30,360
this as well.
I think Oklahoma's going to be a

1562
01:26:30,360 --> 01:26:34,040
little pissed off and they don't
come in and take care of

1563
01:26:34,040 --> 01:26:36,840
business.
But you, Brian.

1564
01:26:38,120 --> 01:26:39,760
I got Oklahoma.
I think you're going to get a

1565
01:26:39,760 --> 01:26:44,560
pissed off Oklahoma.
This is a team that they they

1566
01:26:44,560 --> 01:26:47,080
might have lost what they're
playing for, but they've still

1567
01:26:47,080 --> 01:26:49,640
got to go through the schedule
went out.

1568
01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:53,360
I think they're going to
refocus, get back to what they

1569
01:26:53,360 --> 01:26:57,480
do best, and I think that's
going to be enough against this,

1570
01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:00,520
the Pokes over there.
Yeah.

1571
01:27:01,120 --> 01:27:04,240
And I'm with y'all Oklahoma.
I think if they blend with

1572
01:27:04,240 --> 01:27:08,120
Kansas, I think this line would
be like 8/8 and 1/2 and then you

1573
01:27:08,120 --> 01:27:11,360
know, go the other way.
But that loss to Kansas is going

1574
01:27:11,360 --> 01:27:13,080
to piss them off.
Give me Oklahoma.

1575
01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:22,520
And we got one last one.
USC UW Washington is the

1576
01:27:22,520 --> 01:27:26,320
favorite at -5 Bron.
Got to switch up the graphic.

1577
01:27:26,560 --> 01:27:28,640
That's all right.
Not not a problem here.

1578
01:27:30,760 --> 01:27:36,120
USC basically had to play for
their lives at Cal.

1579
01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:44,040
Cal is a team that's struggling.
Y'all right now, 450 to 49.

1580
01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:47,040
Cal did the right thing.
By the way, Cal went for two at

1581
01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:49,280
the end.
Yeah, they went for two at the

1582
01:27:49,320 --> 01:27:51,120
end.
You the underdog, you ain't got

1583
01:27:51,120 --> 01:27:52,520
nothing to lose.
You ain't got nothing to play

1584
01:27:52,520 --> 01:27:54,120
for.
Go for the win and go for the

1585
01:27:54,120 --> 01:27:59,440
win.
So here we go for this game.

1586
01:27:59,440 --> 01:28:04,960
Brian, USC UW.
Who you got?

1587
01:28:06,520 --> 01:28:10,520
Dub all the way, man this.
This Trojan team has not

1588
01:28:10,520 --> 01:28:14,000
impressed me in really any game
so far this season.

1589
01:28:15,440 --> 01:28:17,680
There hasn't really been one
game where they went out there

1590
01:28:17,680 --> 01:28:20,200
and dominated the way I thought
they would, especially out of

1591
01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:22,560
after what they look like most
of last season.

1592
01:28:24,640 --> 01:28:27,440
They've really underperformed in
my eyes all year.

1593
01:28:27,440 --> 01:28:29,880
So I'm going with the the
Huskies here.

1594
01:28:30,720 --> 01:28:32,880
All righty, I'm next.
I'm with the Huskies as well on

1595
01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:37,560
this one.
The Huskies have a They're not

1596
01:28:37,560 --> 01:28:39,520
an elite defense.
I think they've got enough

1597
01:28:39,520 --> 01:28:43,080
defense like we've seen between
a couple of the losses issued to

1598
01:28:43,080 --> 01:28:46,560
slow Oregon down.
Ain't no way USC slowing down

1599
01:28:46,560 --> 01:28:49,040
Michael Pennix in that offense,
no.

1600
01:28:49,240 --> 01:28:52,120
It ain't no way Pennix might
win.

1601
01:28:52,240 --> 01:28:54,520
Pennix might win the Heisman.
He might win.

1602
01:28:54,760 --> 01:28:59,080
He might win the Heisman.
I'm going, I'm going with the

1603
01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:01,080
Huskies as well.
I mean, why not?

1604
01:29:01,520 --> 01:29:06,360
From what we've seen and what
we've seen from USC, lack of

1605
01:29:06,360 --> 01:29:10,160
defense, you know, like, why
would we think they're going to

1606
01:29:10,160 --> 01:29:12,800
stop to hide somebody that's in
the Heisman race?

1607
01:29:12,800 --> 01:29:16,520
So if Sheldon has anything
different than what we see

1608
01:29:16,880 --> 01:29:19,000
between us three, we're going to
have to have a talk with him.

1609
01:29:19,160 --> 01:29:23,000
What do you got?
And I'm going to do something

1610
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:27,360
real quick if somebody I caught
it. 3IN Rex Parker, one of our

1611
01:29:27,360 --> 01:29:29,360
listeners out here, you win for
every pick.

1612
01:29:29,360 --> 01:29:30,640
So we going to put yours up
here.

1613
01:29:30,640 --> 01:29:32,680
Rex is with all of us with
Texas.

1614
01:29:33,720 --> 01:29:38,520
Rex is riding with me and Brian
with LSUI ain't the only one.

1615
01:29:38,520 --> 01:29:42,200
Rex is riding with Georgia.
Rex is going against us.

1616
01:29:42,200 --> 01:29:46,000
He thinks this folks are going
to take it personal here and

1617
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:49,560
then let's go here.
He's with us on UW and he does

1618
01:29:49,560 --> 01:29:51,880
say Vt covers Rex.
We appreciate your input.

1619
01:29:52,080 --> 01:29:54,240
If I'd have caught it early, I'd
have put them up every time.

1620
01:29:54,520 --> 01:29:57,160
Oh, by the way, thank you, TIB,
for putting this up.

1621
01:29:57,560 --> 01:30:01,360
Kansas has more wins all time
over Oklahoma than Oakley State

1622
01:30:01,360 --> 01:30:02,520
does.
That's a tough one to believe.

1623
01:30:03,160 --> 01:30:04,760
That's that's a fun fact right
there.

1624
01:30:05,680 --> 01:30:06,880
That is a fun fact.
That's.

1625
01:30:06,880 --> 01:30:08,880
A fun fact.
Y'all out there giving us some

1626
01:30:08,920 --> 01:30:11,360
tidbits, boys.
Y'all got the Twittersphere up.

1627
01:30:11,600 --> 01:30:14,240
Anything happening?
What's happening in the games?

1628
01:30:14,520 --> 01:30:15,920
I couldn't.
I couldn't have all the

1629
01:30:15,920 --> 01:30:21,560
bandwidth inside the room here
tonight because 26. 2614 lines

1630
01:30:21,560 --> 01:30:26,040
up, but the Raiders have the
ball and they're driving about

1631
01:30:26,040 --> 01:30:28,640
basketball game.
I ain't got that up.

1632
01:30:29,120 --> 01:30:31,480
I ain't watching nothing right
now, but I know the Lakers

1633
01:30:31,960 --> 01:30:35,520
started playing at 9:30 and I'm
like, I'm expecting us to lose

1634
01:30:37,200 --> 01:30:38,240
for some reason.
We can't.

1635
01:30:38,440 --> 01:30:40,600
We don't like playing at the
beginning of the year, so.

1636
01:30:42,080 --> 01:30:44,920
Yeah, we we tend to not figure
it out till sometime just before

1637
01:30:44,920 --> 01:30:46,160
Christmas.
And then we're like, all right,

1638
01:30:46,160 --> 01:30:47,520
we'll start playing man all.
Right.

1639
01:30:47,520 --> 01:30:51,200
By the way, Rangers won 3-1
tonight to take a 21 lead.

1640
01:30:51,200 --> 01:30:55,840
I guess that just wrapped up.
I'm Hey, the pitch clock works.

1641
01:30:56,640 --> 01:30:59,520
The game started at eight O 6.
It's under 3 hours.

1642
01:31:01,120 --> 01:31:03,480
Put some more up here that we're
seeing folks throwing their

1643
01:31:03,480 --> 01:31:10,480
picks out.
Yeah, my my question is why is

1644
01:31:10,480 --> 01:31:13,000
LeBron James playing like 26
minutes at the beginning?

1645
01:31:13,160 --> 01:31:17,240
Shouldn't it be like play heavy
the first month, then light for

1646
01:31:17,240 --> 01:31:20,120
a while, then heavy again?
I don't know what we doing, man,

1647
01:31:20,760 --> 01:31:23,560
but he is our game.
Yeah, we won one.

1648
01:31:24,040 --> 01:31:26,840
We beat.
We beat the Suns without two of

1649
01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:29,280
their stars.
It's still almost lost.

1650
01:31:29,840 --> 01:31:31,800
I mean, they had to rant, but
they didn't have really anybody

1651
01:31:31,800 --> 01:31:36,640
else, right?
Wanting to OK.

1652
01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:38,360
I mean, we've been in every
game.

1653
01:31:38,360 --> 01:31:39,640
I guess that's one thing you can
say.

1654
01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:43,480
I mean, yeah, it wasn't, it
wasn't like we got smoked in any

1655
01:31:43,480 --> 01:31:44,240
game so far.
I.

1656
01:31:44,240 --> 01:31:46,160
Mean.
Hey, Tally, you sure you want to

1657
01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:48,000
turn it on?
Y'all up right now.

1658
01:31:48,680 --> 01:31:50,800
No, I'm not going to turn it on.
I'm just going to find out.

1659
01:31:50,800 --> 01:31:53,400
I'm going to go to sleep and
wake up and see if we want it.

1660
01:31:54,680 --> 01:31:57,720
Everybody.
Next week when we come back and

1661
01:31:57,720 --> 01:32:00,200
talk about the game, he's going
to tell us he did not go to

1662
01:32:00,200 --> 01:32:03,160
sleep that night and he stayed
up till 12:00 watching the

1663
01:32:03,200 --> 01:32:06,960
Lakers game probably.
Garoppolo just missed a wide

1664
01:32:06,960 --> 01:32:09,920
fucking open Devante Adams.
He'd still be running right now.

1665
01:32:09,920 --> 01:32:10,960
Oh.
Man.

1666
01:32:11,080 --> 01:32:12,600
Well, I don't think I'm playing
either.

1667
01:32:12,640 --> 01:32:15,120
Well, boys, if nothing else is
broken, let's wrap up this

I don't know Jason's bets.

1683
01:33:02,160 --> 01:33:05,240
He's probably got at least one
parlay rolling tonight with the

1684
01:33:05,240 --> 01:33:09,280
with the NBA we're going to
start at least.

1685
01:33:09,280 --> 01:33:13,760
I mean, hey he hey, we'll be
straight up tally his first like

1686
01:33:13,760 --> 01:33:17,240
5 days on NBA.
He has absolutely nailed.

1687
01:33:17,720 --> 01:33:19,960
Which means he's probably going
to lose for a month and then

1688
01:33:19,960 --> 01:33:22,240
claim he's not playing and then
get some extra money.
