00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:51,500
Welcome back D down jury Corner
podcast with my co-host.

2
00:00:51,500 --> 00:00:54,300
Ryan Sigler, I'm Curtis Wilson
Brian.

3
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,100
We're not talking about Saturday
yet which is not now, we're not,

4
00:00:58,100 --> 00:01:00,400
we're not lead with Saturday.
We got to get a little little

5
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,400
happiness in here because the
rest of it is going to be so

6
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,800
great.
Well, this ain't happiness.

7
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:12,000
So we're not talking to this
either fantasy bra today, right?

8
00:01:12,300 --> 00:01:14,100
That's about the only thing
that's been good.

9
00:01:14,100 --> 00:01:16,500
So far, luckily.
My Colts don't play till

10
00:01:16,500 --> 00:01:18,300
tomorrow.
So I haven't had the sadness

11
00:01:18,300 --> 00:01:24,100
that Curtis has experienced
today, but my fantasy team is

12
00:01:24,100 --> 00:01:26,600
finally looked competent for the
first time all year.

13
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:31,700
And I'm here to say, I welcome
this I'm finally get a little

14
00:01:31,700 --> 00:01:34,500
Health in there.
I got I got two running backs

15
00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:36,900
that actually played a full
game.

16
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,600
I even started the wrong
quarterback and I'm in a good

17
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,700
position where as long as my boy
Jonathan Taylor doesn't go out

18
00:01:46,700 --> 00:01:50,500
there and completely blow up and
get 33 points tomorrow night.

19
00:01:51,100 --> 00:01:53,900
I'm taking that W and I feel
pretty good about that.

20
00:01:53,900 --> 00:01:58,900
So I'll wait a second.
So Jonathan, you're playing

21
00:01:58,900 --> 00:02:03,000
Taylor from the Colts tomorrow
night, and if he gets 33, you

22
00:02:03,700 --> 00:02:05,900
hold on.
This is the whole.

23
00:02:07,100 --> 00:02:09,500
What do you want, Brian?
Do you want the fantasy win?

24
00:02:09,500 --> 00:02:13,100
If it's a guarantee that the
Colts win, but you lose the

25
00:02:13,100 --> 00:02:14,400
fantasy game.
What do you do?

26
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:22,900
Yeah, I mean I'll take the win
for my team over fantasy but in

27
00:02:22,900 --> 00:02:25,600
a perfect world Jonathan Taylor
gets thirty two and a half

28
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,700
points and I take the W.
He takes the W there.

29
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,600
The Colts, get the W.
Yeah, I'm with you man.

30
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,400
The Niners hard today, Lance
started.

31
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:39,600
But if they go back to drop
below, I have no faith in the

32
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,400
coaching staff or the front
office to get that.

33
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,600
Right.
But fantasy for me today, man.

34
00:02:46,300 --> 00:02:49,200
Let me tell you who on my
fantasy team Ryan, you know,

35
00:02:49,900 --> 00:02:53,800
Justin Herbert.
Now, put up a 60 Burger today.

36
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:58,100
Yeah, Mike Evans almost put up a
30 burger.

37
00:02:59,300 --> 00:03:01,400
Nick Chubb, almost put up a 30
burger.

38
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:08,000
I mean I'm sitting here man.
I'm projected to score almost

39
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,700
180 and I got two players left
ones right now.

40
00:03:11,700 --> 00:03:14,600
You'll see me look up Edward to
layer for the Chiefs.

41
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,600
So fantasy has been sweet to me
today.

42
00:03:20,900 --> 00:03:22,500
It's been the one good spot of
the weekend.

43
00:03:23,500 --> 00:03:31,200
Well, you know, It was a nice
weekend is a little rainy

44
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:35,100
yesterday.
Still hanging out, you know,

45
00:03:35,100 --> 00:03:37,800
with the fam having a good time
hanging with the neighbors, in a

46
00:03:37,808 --> 00:03:40,500
cul-de-sac.
We had the homecoming parade

47
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:42,600
kids got more candy than they
probably could have for

48
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,800
Halloween.
We might cancel Halloween, just

49
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,300
so we don't have to go back out.
We will do that.

50
00:03:48,300 --> 00:03:50,700
It was, it was a good, your kids
would Riot.

51
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,300
Oh yeah.
What the hogshead tonight, man.

52
00:03:54,900 --> 00:03:58,800
Do I miss that place?
That's one of the that's like

53
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,600
one of the like the three spots
in the West End that I used to

54
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,200
go to on a regular.
Is that I just can't hit me

55
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,600
more.
I usually hit them about once

56
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,400
every like two to three months
now, which is fine.

57
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:14,700
But hogshead, I still usually
make about a once-a-month

58
00:04:15,100 --> 00:04:17,500
pilgrimage to Hurley's just
because that was my spot.

59
00:04:17,500 --> 00:04:21,600
That was my bar.
Shout out Hurley's Tavern in the

60
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,100
West End shops at Innsbruck at
the corner.

61
00:04:25,500 --> 00:04:28,000
Blocks abroad.
There we go, Corner Cox and

62
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:34,400
Broad. shut up, Wes McElroy for
the inflection, on the delivery

63
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:44,000
there that, you know, I'm to the
point now in my life, my team's

64
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,000
don't ruin the rest of my week.
I've got a neighbor who's a tech

65
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,200
Alum, and me and him said the
same thing today, it sucked.

66
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:54,000
But we're older now and it
doesn't bother us as much, you

67
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,800
know.
Clearly, he kind of looked at

68
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:56,700
me.
He's like, you're gonna rage

69
00:04:56,700 --> 00:04:58,400
tonight, aren't you?
Like, yeah, I'm gonna race

70
00:04:58,400 --> 00:04:59,900
tonight.
He's like, might listen, if I

71
00:04:59,907 --> 00:05:01,800
got the kids to sleep, I'm like
good deal.

72
00:05:02,100 --> 00:05:05,300
This is our therapy session.
We get our, we get our shit out

73
00:05:05,300 --> 00:05:09,200
here and more or less live.
Our normal lives outside of

74
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,800
this.
You know, we've got other

75
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,000
outlets.
Well, it's fun.

76
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:15,900
All those fun group chats that
were a part of.

77
00:05:15,900 --> 00:05:20,600
So have we got, we got those
outlets and we got the podcast

78
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,800
here.
So y'all get to hear our ran

79
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,300
sessions here.
Hopefully we won't ramble too

80
00:05:26,300 --> 00:05:28,900
much here.
We'll keep it on topic and give

81
00:05:28,900 --> 00:05:30,200
you all something fun to listen
to.

82
00:05:30,500 --> 00:05:33,600
We're going to try to keep it.
The, the navigable is it the

83
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,800
navigational?
Keep it between the

84
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,300
navigational.
Buoys.

85
00:05:39,700 --> 00:05:44,300
Alright Braun.
Crank it up because Jesus did we

86
00:05:44,300 --> 00:05:47,900
see some things?
Last night?

87
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,500
Yeah, I mean what it was is this
right here, right?

88
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,600
That's what it was.
It was the same old song and

89
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:09,300
dance on numerous occasions at
critical junctures in the game

90
00:06:09,300 --> 00:06:14,300
with to me just some terrible
coaching decisions.

91
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,100
Now the execution coaching
decisions and Brian we're going

92
00:06:19,100 --> 00:06:23,200
to hit it right off the bat.
Let's go early second quarter

93
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:26,400
text leading 7-nothing.
The first drive.

94
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,000
We three-and-out.
The second.

95
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,500
We have this great little Long
play.

96
00:06:29,500 --> 00:06:32,100
We punch it in.
We get the touchdown and we're

97
00:06:32,100 --> 00:06:37,300
doing the same thing again.
And you know, we kind of look at

98
00:06:37,300 --> 00:06:43,700
this Drive-In General Braun.
And you know, the athletic past

99
00:06:43,700 --> 00:06:48,500
that be be made to Gallo.
That's where it starts the team

100
00:06:48,500 --> 00:06:51,100
with a great cut.
On a couple plays later to get

101
00:06:51,100 --> 00:06:53,900
upfield, we bring in blumrich
for a wild, turkey gets some

102
00:06:53,900 --> 00:06:58,600
yards.
In a deep out to trade for yards

103
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,300
and then they run that little
almost the pop scene.

104
00:07:02,100 --> 00:07:05,600
Tutte the guy holds and there's
a penalty.

105
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:12,100
We're in the red zone and the
next thing you know, we get down

106
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,200
but we get down at the one-yard
line.

107
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,700
Yep, give us the sequence, man.
What, let's start with us over.

108
00:07:20,700 --> 00:07:23,800
The sequence was the first one.
The first one was well, the

109
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,900
inside Zone, but he beat
scramble to get.

110
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,600
Down another tray.
They run that sweet tree gets

111
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:29,200
down.
Sorry.

112
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,800
The other one was the earlier
touchdown Drive which I'm gonna

113
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,900
hit on later but it was the
sequence, we're driving, good

114
00:07:35,900 --> 00:07:38,000
return.
We're gonna hook on first BB

115
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,900
sweeps +6.
Sweet to Trey were patient.

116
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:47,000
He waits for wholesome, Luke to
set up the screen King still in.

117
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:50,700
Be be scrambled and we got the
first down and we're inside the

118
00:07:50,700 --> 00:07:54,200
red zone that tray Suite, where
he stepped out like at the

119
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:58,100
one-yard line.
That were at the one the first

120
00:07:58,100 --> 00:07:59,700
play.
I don't think anybody I don't, I

121
00:07:59,707 --> 00:08:00,800
think we're all.
Okay with it.

122
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,200
Where it the one, give it one
shot running.

123
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:04,900
It was Trey.
It was an inside Zone.

124
00:08:04,900 --> 00:08:09,700
It was started.
Brian what you call next?

125
00:08:09,700 --> 00:08:13,300
I'm sure when this when you saw
what happened, your light bulb

126
00:08:13,300 --> 00:08:15,200
would like, yes.
We're going to do something,

127
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:20,800
right?
And yeah, I thought I thought we

128
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,200
were going to just we were going
to get caught her in there

129
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:28,400
either.
Work it outside on some of that

130
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,600
sweet motion with the with the
Jet Sweep or come up the Middle

131
00:08:32,100 --> 00:08:36,600
with with Connor on the keeper
will single wing action.

132
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:44,900
But what have we, we roll short
side of the field.

133
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:49,400
So we take away half the field
and it's a play that they've

134
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,200
seen because when they, as soon
as we are and they snuffed it

135
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,000
out, it was supposed to be a
little double action and you saw

136
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,700
linebackers around the thing
alone, work out of throw it

137
00:08:58,700 --> 00:09:01,900
away.
And we sit here and it's the

138
00:09:01,900 --> 00:09:04,700
same old, like the first down
play.

139
00:09:04,700 --> 00:09:07,600
I get, you know, people who want
to be more creative.

140
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,800
At the one you got them on their
heels if you push them off, it's

141
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,300
a touchdown.
I don't have an issue with that

142
00:09:12,300 --> 00:09:14,800
play.
The next play was the one

143
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,400
because Connor had came in
already in proven that we could

144
00:09:18,500 --> 00:09:21,400
get with what is linked with his
size.

145
00:09:21,700 --> 00:09:26,200
We could get short yardage
situation it right dip and then

146
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:29,300
you just completely take away
the thing the guy does best.

147
00:09:30,100 --> 00:09:34,500
We completely go to a old.
Do this call will work that call

148
00:09:34,500 --> 00:09:37,600
hasn't worked in a while.
It didn't work numerous times.

149
00:09:37,700 --> 00:09:41,200
Against West Virginia and like
the song says the same old song

150
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,200
and dance.
And well this is the other thing

151
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:45,700
that happens in the red zone,
right?

152
00:09:45,700 --> 00:09:51,000
Where you know you feel like The
call is like trying to be the

153
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:56,100
smartest guy in the room, like,
don't don't overthink the call

154
00:09:56,300 --> 00:10:00,400
get us in the end zone, but the
right Personnel in the field and

155
00:10:00,408 --> 00:10:03,200
get us in the damage Zone.
And that's where it felt right,

156
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,100
didn't it?
Yeah, right personnel and I was

157
00:10:06,100 --> 00:10:08,700
just sitting here me and you
mentioned that you talked about

158
00:10:08,700 --> 00:10:11,700
that sweet action.
I was hoping that go up.

159
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:14,700
You keep tray or tail on the
right whoever you want to sweep

160
00:10:14,700 --> 00:10:17,100
by across and you see how they
align.

161
00:10:18,100 --> 00:10:20,600
And you probably could say well
if they were going to give the

162
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,100
outside, leverage you hand, it
you let a name for the corner.

163
00:10:25,300 --> 00:10:29,400
And you'd let it be a foot race.
And if he makes it he makes and

164
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,000
if he doesn't then good on them
but if they give you the right

165
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,200
numbers and they give you the
inside leverage, right?

166
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:36,900
Hmm.
Run it up.

167
00:10:36,900 --> 00:10:39,700
The freakin middle.
The guys 6 foot 5.

168
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:44,800
Running Head, Start could find a
hole and just jump, but nope.

169
00:10:46,700 --> 00:10:50,000
Arie.
Wonderful, play caller, thanks.

170
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,200
No, let's do this play.
This will work and you could see

171
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,800
they knew it.
You cannot can I say something

172
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,300
else?
Because I'm going to, I'm going

173
00:10:56,300 --> 00:10:57,600
to bury a little bit of the lead
here.

174
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,600
But guys, in some points in this
game, we ran plays under Center

175
00:11:02,900 --> 00:11:12,500
Yes, we're going to talk about
the first time and there's some

176
00:11:12,500 --> 00:11:15,400
other pieces in there, man,
we're going to hit it later.

177
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,300
If somebody at some point, you
got to win the battle of the

178
00:11:17,308 --> 00:11:19,200
line of scrimmage and just get
Guys across the field.

179
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:21,700
Stop overthinking this shit.
Exactly.

180
00:11:21,700 --> 00:11:26,000
The third play.
We try to run the fade to Trey.

181
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:29,300
He /.
BB /, throws it.

182
00:11:29,300 --> 00:11:32,500
And can I ask you this before we
go any further?

183
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:33,900
Other.
Yep.

184
00:11:34,100 --> 00:11:38,600
When John Parker Romo came in
and essentially the 8 yard line

185
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:45,800
where you're like man I was I
was nervous but you know if

186
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:49,100
you're going to kick the field
goal which I still don't

187
00:11:49,100 --> 00:11:52,200
necessarily agree with here.
But if you're going to kick the

188
00:11:52,208 --> 00:11:57,300
field goal that that is what it
is and actually shoutout to John

189
00:11:57,300 --> 00:11:59,400
Parker Romo, because he had a
hell of a game.

190
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,500
What 343 field goal.
Goals at 52 yard could have been

191
00:12:04,500 --> 00:12:08,500
good from 62.
Yeah, so, I mean, great game by

192
00:12:08,500 --> 00:12:10,900
him.
Maybe kicks from all over the

193
00:12:10,900 --> 00:12:14,000
field but it wasn't really
listening.

194
00:12:14,700 --> 00:12:16,200
Absolutely.
Absolutely.

195
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:22,700
Well, but that's a scenario
where you got a feel of the game

196
00:12:22,700 --> 00:12:25,100
flow of the game.
I would have liked to have

197
00:12:25,500 --> 00:12:28,300
number one, had better play
sequencing leading up to fourth

198
00:12:28,300 --> 00:12:30,300
down, but I would have fucking
went for it there.

199
00:12:31,700 --> 00:12:35,200
I mean, this is Notre, Dame,
it's a game that if you win,

200
00:12:35,300 --> 00:12:38,500
it's, you get clout points for
that.

201
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:41,800
And it's a game that if you lose
and lose it in a way that at

202
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,300
least looks like you're, you're
pulling out all the stops.

203
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,400
It doesn't, it doesn't.
You as bad, right?

204
00:12:49,500 --> 00:12:51,600
No, not at all.
Leave your nuts on the field,

205
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,400
both as coaches and players in
the players did that.

206
00:12:54,500 --> 00:12:56,500
I don't feel like the coaches
left their nuts on the field

207
00:12:56,500 --> 00:13:01,700
here, they left a lot off the
field and it's in the simplistic

208
00:13:01,700 --> 00:13:05,000
Math.
Run we lost by 3, you get the

209
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:10,200
touchdown there. 7, minus 3 is 4
the itself and there's points

210
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,000
all over this, feel that we're
going to get rid.

211
00:13:12,100 --> 00:13:15,200
That's that's for we got a few
more to talk about and obviously

212
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:16,600
that's going to come to the
second one.

213
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:18,300
So obviously, SLI, same old song
and dance.

214
00:13:18,300 --> 00:13:20,600
We get the goal line, cannot
punch it in from the one.

215
00:13:20,900 --> 00:13:24,000
Even when we put the right
Personnel, we do stupid things.

216
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:29,200
All right, then dumb penalties
and I know you on this one.

217
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,300
Brian you got?
I was I was up the refs ass.

218
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:37,500
All right field negates BB
scrambles out hits Tavian a

219
00:13:37,500 --> 00:13:44,000
little krauser touchdown decline
or ineligible field.

220
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,000
Downfield they were right at
three yards.

221
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,600
Get away from the play.
Nowhere near the play.

222
00:13:51,500 --> 00:13:54,100
Not even actively engaged in a
block.

223
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:56,600
No, no.
And you know, not engage in a

224
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:03,600
block like they It's things like
that.

225
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,200
Where, I mean, you can you could
call if you're going to call

226
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,200
that, you could literally call
ineligible, Man, Down feel any

227
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:18,200
rp0 in the history of rpos.
So, I hated that call by the

228
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:22,000
absolute letter of the law.
Yet probably a half yard further

229
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:26,000
downfield and maybe then he
would like to see.

230
00:14:31,100 --> 00:14:35,300
But this isn't like they were
taking a linebacker or a safety

231
00:14:35,300 --> 00:14:39,500
out of flowing to where the play
is happening, right?

232
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,500
Which is why the rules in place.
Yes, that's why the rules in

233
00:14:43,500 --> 00:14:48,000
place, I'm sure you got Taught
years ago, playing the line, the

234
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,300
reason you're in get flagged for
this, if you're engaging

235
00:14:50,300 --> 00:14:53,700
somebody six yards up field,
they're saying, hey I can't try

236
00:14:53,700 --> 00:14:56,200
to go over here and tackle the
guy for Cano lyman's way up

237
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,400
here, and it's not running.
The ball has not been thrown yet

238
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,500
and I'm already engaged by Lyman
six yards of feel.

239
00:15:02,500 --> 00:15:06,000
That's, that's what the letter
of the law is for.

240
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:10,400
And like I said, from a
technical standpoint, by

241
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,600
probably about a half yard.
It's a penalty.

242
00:15:13,300 --> 00:15:18,900
But also In Practical terms, you
would not be able to run our po

243
00:15:19,300 --> 00:15:22,600
if that got flagged every time.
No you wouldn't be able to and

244
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,200
there was a lot more there's
been a lot more egregious 9

245
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:29,100
called ineligible man downfield.
So there there were some in that

246
00:15:29,100 --> 00:15:32,900
game that honestly Notre Dame
committed that could have been

247
00:15:32,900 --> 00:15:35,400
called similarly.
So if you get any worse they

248
00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:39,000
were engaged.
But here, I mean this play out

249
00:15:39,100 --> 00:15:43,100
and then the what the next play
is the is the face mask, right?

250
00:15:43,100 --> 00:15:44,500
That didn't get called.
No, no no.

251
00:15:44,500 --> 00:15:45,500
That was too.
Place.

252
00:15:45,500 --> 00:15:47,400
And this is where I have into
place, okay?

253
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:51,700
Because we try to throw to the
End Zone, it s second and 13 and

254
00:15:51,700 --> 00:15:53,800
this is where the sequencing
screwed up again.

255
00:15:54,300 --> 00:15:55,800
It's where the sequencing is
screwed up.

256
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,800
Again is second and 13.
They're back, they're laying

257
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,200
back.
We try to go to the end zone.

258
00:16:01,300 --> 00:16:07,400
Incomplete pass the next play is
that inside screen to Tavian in

259
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:13,500
which he gets his face mask
pulled and I sit here and I kind

260
00:16:13,500 --> 00:16:20,300
of say, That's the second down
call because at second and 13

261
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:24,800
the again most normal offensive
coordinators, who have actually

262
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,800
done this stuff and made a lot
of money.

263
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,400
The goal, its second and 13 even
in the red zone is going to be

264
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,200
like, well, we can still
potentially get a first down,

265
00:16:34,100 --> 00:16:38,200
let's run something to get
anywhere from five.

266
00:16:39,100 --> 00:16:42,200
To the first down, let's not try
to get it in the end zone

267
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,700
because it's probably going to
be playing for.

268
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,300
And you saw the, the play
weren't perfect.

269
00:16:47,300 --> 00:16:51,800
It was the wrong down because
where we would design get six to

270
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,700
eight.
It could get you the first down,

271
00:16:54,100 --> 00:16:56,900
it got eight.
Its third and five, we would

272
00:16:56,900 --> 00:16:59,500
have been, I think at the seven
or eight.

273
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:02,800
So you still have potential to
get the first down.

274
00:17:02,900 --> 00:17:06,400
You can go End Zone, you can run
the ball, you can do anything

275
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:10,000
you want, but our entire, your
entire Red Zone Playbook is

276
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:11,800
open.
Whereas, if you you know, in the

277
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:15,000
longer yard is situation, you're
essentially having to Hope That

278
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,200
you break a couple tackles or
everything.

279
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,700
Runs exactly perfectly to get
that first down and we really

280
00:17:20,700 --> 00:17:22,300
came up just a couple yards
short.

281
00:17:22,500 --> 00:17:24,900
So it goes back, same old song
and dance incorrect play

282
00:17:24,900 --> 00:17:27,700
sequence.
Okay, terrible Place sequencing

283
00:17:27,700 --> 00:17:29,600
in that, I'm with that movie
sucks.

284
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,300
It would have shifted the
momentum because at that point

285
00:17:33,300 --> 00:17:35,600
in time, it would have went to
22:14.

286
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,400
So again, there's there's more
points on the field.

287
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,700
Right there, there's four more
points, but again, the penalty

288
00:17:42,700 --> 00:17:45,200
sucked.
But the subsequent play-calling

289
00:17:45,500 --> 00:17:49,100
is why you didn't have a chance
to get a touchdown and how it

290
00:17:49,100 --> 00:17:52,800
was backwards.
It was done backwards.

291
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,500
And that's what irritates me
because I sit here and I see

292
00:17:55,500 --> 00:17:56,400
that playing, like, why didn't
you?

293
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,300
It is third and essentially, our
coaches heard us enough where we

294
00:18:01,300 --> 00:18:06,400
can recover from the referees.
Also, hurting us, very true,

295
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,300
very true.
All right, and obviously Brown,

296
00:18:09,300 --> 00:18:14,800
let's go to the last one.
Yep, okay, well, this point I'm

297
00:18:14,900 --> 00:18:16,700
dr.
David got in the lead back

298
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:24,500
21:16.
And you set it in the episode

299
00:18:24,500 --> 00:18:26,400
Brown.
We have to make them Drive Long

300
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:27,500
field.
We're going to get into more of

301
00:18:27,508 --> 00:18:31,800
the interceptions later but
Jermaine Walter was hooked up in

302
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:36,000
a short Zone and I don't know it
but we did see him or not but

303
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:40,100
Waller so he just threw that
ball and Walter junk gone pick

304
00:18:40,100 --> 00:18:44,200
six Beamer ball to the house.
It's 20 to 21.

305
00:18:44,300 --> 00:18:50,300
Now when we go in the 3-yard
line, wondrich is in because

306
00:18:50,300 --> 00:18:55,400
this was after For the BB injury
situation and okay, you're at

307
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:59,600
the three plumber 10.
Like okay I think you can argue

308
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,900
can say leaving points on the
field or not at that point.

309
00:19:02,900 --> 00:19:04,900
I'm that would have made it a
three-point versus a two-point

310
00:19:04,900 --> 00:19:07,500
game.
At the three.

311
00:19:07,700 --> 00:19:08,800
I'm acceptable.
Love it.

312
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,000
That's cool.
I get the point, but after the

313
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,600
false start penalty by Gallo,
we're at the 8th and I'm sitting

314
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:18,300
here like you just kick it now.
Just put John Park out there,

315
00:19:18,300 --> 00:19:23,100
you kick it through.
And, you know, you take your

316
00:19:23,100 --> 00:19:25,900
points and hope you can get
those points back later if you

317
00:19:25,900 --> 00:19:31,200
need them instead.
They send them work out there

318
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,400
and he passes it, it gets picked
and that thing goes back.

319
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,700
And I'm sure if you were like
me, Brian.

320
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:38,800
I was like, that's just going to
get returned.

321
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,000
We're about to.
We've got to go down after a

322
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:46,100
pussy, going to be down 23:22,
thankfully, somebody made a

323
00:19:46,108 --> 00:19:49,400
play.
What's the, what's the logic in

324
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,500
it?
Not from the three, we get it

325
00:19:51,500 --> 00:19:55,600
from the eighth with your, from,
from the three with Connor.

326
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:59,100
You might take that risk.
At that point, I We would have

327
00:19:59,100 --> 00:20:03,400
still kicked it regardless.
It's too early to chase points

328
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:05,700
by going for a two-point
conversion.

329
00:20:05,700 --> 00:20:11,000
There, ultimately, I'm much
more.

330
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,300
Okay, with that decision.
If the penalty doesn't happen,

331
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,100
one of the penalties out there,
kick the damn field goal.

332
00:20:17,700 --> 00:20:19,300
Yeah, you don't need the points
yet.

333
00:20:19,300 --> 00:20:22,900
You have the lead.
Take the extra point.

334
00:20:24,100 --> 00:20:26,700
And you can figure out if you're
going to need those two points

335
00:20:26,700 --> 00:20:29,200
later.
Exactly.

336
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,000
So they're don't need him right
now.

337
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,200
So stop chasing them.
Exactly.

338
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:39,400
So we're about 16 minutes in and
the Calamity of errors that

339
00:20:39,500 --> 00:20:41,200
right there, let's just say it
Braun.

340
00:20:42,500 --> 00:20:49,100
For 89 points in the three-point
loss. step nine points,

341
00:20:49,100 --> 00:20:55,000
potentially nine points because
of things we have seen from day

342
00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:02,200
16 years ago If still aren't
being corrected yet that I

343
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:06,000
think, I think that's the thing.
So, let's talk about the trends.

344
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:10,400
And I mean, this goes with this
game and it applies elsewhere.

345
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:11,900
We're going to get more into
this now.

346
00:21:11,900 --> 00:21:15,400
But I mean, if these things were
one offer these things were

347
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:19,800
occasional things that we saw in
a game, we wouldn't be ranting

348
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,700
about them right now or we
wouldn't be rant about them as

349
00:21:22,700 --> 00:21:26,700
hard.
We wouldn't be so flippin songs

350
00:21:26,700 --> 00:21:33,400
in playing yeah going into the
segment it's the repetition of

351
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,400
these problems that is the
issue.

352
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:39,300
Not the presence.
That's it.

353
00:21:40,500 --> 00:21:42,700
And we talk about fourth
quarter.

354
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,700
I mean, when the fourth quarter
started and things and I was

355
00:21:46,700 --> 00:21:50,400
like, all right well we're doing
some good things but we go up

356
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:54,700
eight and as soon as that happen
and you know Notre Dame gets the

357
00:21:54,700 --> 00:22:00,500
ball back and as soon as that
drive started cone comes in, I'm

358
00:22:00,500 --> 00:22:06,400
like I've seen this movie before
and I think I'd actually you tap

359
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,900
think I hit you up.
I was like this is this is

360
00:22:08,900 --> 00:22:11,300
going.
This is going to be Like 2019,

361
00:22:11,300 --> 00:22:13,200
isn't it?
You said it's going to end point

362
00:22:13,700 --> 00:22:18,400
and this was actually, you said,
it might have been earlier, you

363
00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:22,300
said early fourth and they were
just we were up just the one

364
00:22:22,300 --> 00:22:25,100
point.
Yeah, you said I was like, this

365
00:22:25,100 --> 00:22:28,500
is this is going to end up just
like 2019 and more or less.

366
00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:34,600
It did it did more or less a did
the and between you know, having

367
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:38,000
a banged-up quarterback and I
know we played the whole game

368
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:42,700
with our backup quarterback
whereas We played segments of

369
00:22:42,700 --> 00:22:47,400
this game with our backup
quarterback and I guess he's our

370
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,900
backup quarterback.
Probably probably not going into

371
00:22:50,900 --> 00:22:54,100
next week because it looks like
he injured his ankle pretty

372
00:22:54,100 --> 00:22:57,900
badly.
But yeah, you know, Virginia

373
00:22:57,900 --> 00:23:01,200
Tech goes up with the touchdown.
Go up eight.

374
00:23:03,100 --> 00:23:13,200
Better day.
Yeah yeah this year and gets a

375
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:18,000
few extra yards and it goes back
to where the play calling look

376
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,200
different again.
We run a sweep.

377
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,900
You know Lofton got.
Welcome to the College Football

378
00:23:23,900 --> 00:23:28,700
World with that hit.
Yeah, he got welcomed and then

379
00:23:29,300 --> 00:23:33,200
BB gets a third down conversion
pass and We're often because I

380
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:34,600
mean, they smell blood in the
water.

381
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,400
After you see him pop the pills
on the sidelines, which I'm sure

382
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:41,800
somebody said to them, he hurt,
they hit him but he heard her,

383
00:23:42,500 --> 00:23:45,500
he's hurt.
He's not just a little Nick.

384
00:23:45,900 --> 00:23:48,100
And then there were some, we're
in the Red Zone there, a couple

385
00:23:48,100 --> 00:23:53,100
of kids bad play calls.
In that 22, mile an hour speed,

386
00:23:53,100 --> 00:23:56,000
then showed up the play called,
which I'm still trying to figure

387
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,000
out what it was because it
wasn't.

388
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:03,800
There he rolled in just like,
said, I got to go, I got to go

389
00:24:04,700 --> 00:24:09,000
and he goes as, I mean, he runs
as fast as he can.

390
00:24:09,100 --> 00:24:13,100
Mrs. To Notre Dame Defender
scores were up eight.

391
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:18,100
Now let's go back.
Brian, we kick the extra point.

392
00:24:18,100 --> 00:24:21,100
We score the touchdown, it's a
nine-point game.

393
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:28,500
Game dip, they can't.
Essentially they can't just

394
00:24:28,500 --> 00:24:30,600
score and tie the game.
They will have to be.

395
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:36,800
Dang yep.
Um but you know then it didn't

396
00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,600
let's go into that drive about
cone coming in.

397
00:24:40,700 --> 00:24:44,000
Yes a cone comes in in the in
the very first play.

398
00:24:45,700 --> 00:24:49,400
On that pass.
You get, you get Dax with

399
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:56,200
targeting ejected.
I don't like it.

400
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,400
I know we were the beneficiary
of a tight end on a crack back

401
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:04,300
earlier in the game that didn't
really hurt them that much.

402
00:25:04,300 --> 00:25:06,700
They were on their second tight
end, he hadn't really done a

403
00:25:06,700 --> 00:25:08,500
whole lot of damage in their
passing attack.

404
00:25:08,500 --> 00:25:14,600
He was just kind of a dude.
True, you know Dax goes out and

405
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,900
wild acts didn't have his best
game to actually did get shook

406
00:25:17,900 --> 00:25:23,600
in Space by Buckner and Tyree a
couple times.

407
00:25:24,500 --> 00:25:27,900
Dax did pretty good in his mic
coverage, responsibilities in

408
00:25:27,900 --> 00:25:30,000
taking away the seam and things
like that.

409
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:35,100
And two days after that two
plays after dax's out, they

410
00:25:35,100 --> 00:25:38,200
attack that scene.
And they get a big game that

411
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,600
gets them in plus territory.
And you said, you start saying

412
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:43,400
shit.
I've seen this movie before.

413
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,200
I want to ask a question, wrong
about that play to me, it wasn't

414
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,000
pocketing.
It was literally, because the

415
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,700
way that part of the way that
ball was thrown, the, the head

416
00:25:53,700 --> 00:25:56,900
was down, it was Children.
It was almost like a more of a

417
00:25:56,900 --> 00:25:59,100
clothesline than anything, if
they would eject him for a

418
00:25:59,100 --> 00:26:02,000
clothesline out of been fine.
But here's the here's what I

419
00:26:02,008 --> 00:26:04,400
say.
They don't throw the flag.

420
00:26:05,300 --> 00:26:08,400
That Stadium popped when he
knocked it out of that kid.

421
00:26:08,500 --> 00:26:11,800
I mean, it went nuts.
It reminds me of Diablo lighting

422
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:16,100
up the UVA player last year and
that hit I think if that if it's

423
00:26:16,100 --> 00:26:20,900
just a hit and they have to
carry that I think I think cone

424
00:26:20,900 --> 00:26:24,600
is probably in his head like my
God they're they're taking guys

425
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:29,100
out instead are the air came out
of the defense, the air came out

426
00:26:29,100 --> 00:26:32,900
of the stadium, it was
definitely one of those momentum

427
00:26:32,900 --> 00:26:38,700
Changers like you kind of felt a
shift and ultimately that kind

428
00:26:38,700 --> 00:26:42,600
of came to fruition, right?
So the defense just couldn't

429
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,900
really get their legs back under
them after that.

430
00:26:44,900 --> 00:26:47,800
It looked like the whole tax for
Notre.

431
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,000
Dame the attacker.
Attack the middle, they attack

432
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,900
the middle.
And you know, I think some of

433
00:26:53,900 --> 00:27:00,400
this is saying, you know, It's
hard to come cold in the fourth

434
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:05,000
quarter when it matters with a,
with the position, like Mike.

435
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,300
Right?
Yeah.

436
00:27:06,300 --> 00:27:09,600
So, I'm, this isn't a knock-on
on Dean Ferguson.

437
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,200
This isn't a knock on the plate,
it's just, you're coming in cold

438
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:18,000
in the fourth quarter, in the
kind of the biggest moment of

439
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,600
the game.
And it's a position where you're

440
00:27:21,700 --> 00:27:24,500
having to line up people, you're
having to think through a

441
00:27:24,508 --> 00:27:27,600
million things.
He could have potentially been

442
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:32,100
cut out to ask the blitz to play
a man responsibility to come off

443
00:27:32,100 --> 00:27:37,400
the edge to play, some sort of,
you know, shorts on Mid Zone.

444
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:39,900
It's like a million things.
Right.

445
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:44,300
And with the Michael, it's also
a flow position because you're

446
00:27:44,700 --> 00:27:48,900
all night Dax is Flowing where
the balls going, okay.

447
00:27:48,900 --> 00:27:50,800
What are they?
Doing with it tip.

448
00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,400
It's like the first quarter
against.

449
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,300
Oh no!
It's like the first drive he's

450
00:27:56,300 --> 00:27:58,500
coming in and still has to get a
feel of what?

451
00:27:58,900 --> 00:28:01,500
What they're trying to do me
while they're in full-on attack

452
00:28:01,500 --> 00:28:02,400
mode, right?
Yeah.

453
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,800
And they're they're, they're not
feeling us out.

454
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:08,400
They know what they want to do.
So that's that's a tough spot.

455
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:12,700
So I feel like that definitely
put our defense kind of behind

456
00:28:12,700 --> 00:28:15,100
there and I'm not making excuses
for them.

457
00:28:15,100 --> 00:28:18,400
They definitely could have did a
little bit more at the end to

458
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,700
keep them out of the in.
I think we need to work on that.

459
00:28:20,700 --> 00:28:24,200
We do a really good job of
getting folks off the field.

460
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,300
When they cross the 50, before
they get into the Red Zone, we

461
00:28:27,300 --> 00:28:28,900
haven't done a great job of
once.

462
00:28:28,900 --> 00:28:30,900
Teams are getting into the Red
Zone on us.

463
00:28:31,500 --> 00:28:33,100
Stopping them from scoring,
right?

464
00:28:33,100 --> 00:28:35,200
We haven't stopped anybody from
scoring in the Red Zone, this

465
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:36,600
year.
If you get to the Red Zone

466
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:41,800
against us, it's now 11 for 11.
It's 11 for 11, so if you get

467
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:47,200
there with us by whatever
reason, you're likely to get

468
00:28:47,700 --> 00:28:51,400
rear seven and it's been seven
more times than it has for E.

469
00:28:52,100 --> 00:28:56,500
So and some need to be we need
to be better at that.

470
00:28:56,500 --> 00:29:00,400
We like I said we've done a good
job of giving up yards but

471
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,700
getting put folks off the field.
You know.

472
00:29:02,700 --> 00:29:04,800
Before they get into that Red
Zone, we've done a.

473
00:29:05,100 --> 00:29:07,400
I'd say probably one of the
better teams in the nation.

474
00:29:07,900 --> 00:29:13,400
Oh yeah that But once they're in
the Red Zone, you know, we're

475
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:18,300
not doing a good job of either
turning them over or forcing

476
00:29:18,300 --> 00:29:22,100
them into bad spots or they lose
yardage in have to kick a

477
00:29:22,108 --> 00:29:25,400
tougher field goal so.
Alright we need to really just

478
00:29:25,500 --> 00:29:27,800
we need to be more consistent.
Forcing the field goal all

479
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:29,900
together.
I mean if we were if there are

480
00:29:29,900 --> 00:29:32,000
11 for 11 but they kicked eight
field goals.

481
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,400
I wouldn't feel that bad.
We're on the other way.

482
00:29:36,500 --> 00:29:38,200
We're on the other side of that,
right?

483
00:29:38,300 --> 00:29:42,000
For more on the Been down there.
I think it's an odd but look it

484
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:46,300
up its 11th.
I was 747 as of just a couple

485
00:29:46,300 --> 00:29:49,300
weeks or as of, you know, the
last time we discussed it on the

486
00:29:49,300 --> 00:29:52,200
bye week and I think it was five
to two.

487
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,900
So it's like 922 now touchdowns
but, you know, still at that

488
00:29:56,900 --> 00:30:00,400
point in time rhyme it's a tie
game.

489
00:30:00,700 --> 00:30:03,100
Yep.
Seen our offense move the ball

490
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:08,700
and then couple, you know, the
first pass was incomplete the

491
00:30:08,700 --> 00:30:11,400
second pass.
Pass was it was the right call

492
00:30:11,900 --> 00:30:14,600
because if trade catches that
ball we're on plus side of the

493
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:21,000
field with probably a minute and
some change left and he missed

494
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,800
it and it was could be be a
thoughts, you put yourself.

495
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,700
If you do that, you put yourself
in a situation where either

496
00:30:27,700 --> 00:30:32,100
you're getting the field goal or
they probably don't have enough

497
00:30:32,100 --> 00:30:34,000
time to come back down the
field.

498
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,400
No, no, they're not.
If he catches that, if we don't

499
00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:38,400
get the field goal, it's going
over time.

500
00:30:38,900 --> 00:30:40,600
Yeah.
And I don't know if that favors

501
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,400
if you'd obviously favors them
because of our red zone defense,

502
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,400
can I be honest?
I hated the first down rat

503
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:50,100
called The the play to little
swing out.

504
00:30:50,100 --> 00:30:54,700
Yeah I that that was are mailed.
I mean, number one, if you're

505
00:30:54,700 --> 00:30:59,300
going to have your quarterback
who is hurting in his throwing

506
00:30:59,300 --> 00:31:04,300
shoulder, Throw the ball, it
better be down the fucking

507
00:31:04,300 --> 00:31:07,100
field.
You are tie.

508
00:31:07,100 --> 00:31:11,200
This is not up 10 points with
two minutes left.

509
00:31:11,300 --> 00:31:14,200
And if you're thinking about
getting any sort of clock off

510
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:18,700
the ball, get your running back
in space on like a toss or

511
00:31:18,700 --> 00:31:23,400
something like that.
Keep the clock running there in

512
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,200
a different way if you're going
to be conservative, be

513
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:30,500
conservative.
So, that's my problem there.

514
00:31:30,500 --> 00:31:32,800
And, and I love the second
downplay.

515
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,200
Call Secondhand play.
Call was perfect.

516
00:31:35,300 --> 00:31:38,000
It was Trey's got to come down
with that ball.

517
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,500
Could have been a little bit
better throne, but if you get

518
00:31:40,500 --> 00:31:42,100
both hands on it you got to pull
it in.

519
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,400
It's true, man.
It's very, very true.

520
00:31:46,100 --> 00:31:50,800
So you know, BB prize like crazy
scramble.

521
00:31:50,900 --> 00:31:55,500
Gets 9e short, we have to punt.
And then, you know, we had

522
00:31:55,500 --> 00:31:58,900
already seen it the way comb had
driven before with, you know,

523
00:31:59,300 --> 00:32:07,300
with no Dax in the game, you
know, it seven plays in a min,

524
00:32:07,300 --> 00:32:15,100
30 seconds to go 45 yards and it
was, you know, a couple one, big

525
00:32:15,100 --> 00:32:20,300
one, small ones. another big
one, another solid one in the

526
00:32:20,308 --> 00:32:23,700
next thing you know they're at
our 30 48-yard field goal right

527
00:32:23,700 --> 00:32:30,800
through about 20 seconds left
and 3229 and we can sit back and

528
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:35,100
we can just say So many points
in the game.

529
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:41,000
So many points where we leaving,
you know, multiple points on the

530
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:45,000
field that if you do, that, this
doesn't happen.

531
00:32:45,800 --> 00:32:50,900
They're out, they don't have the
possibility, it changes game

532
00:32:50,900 --> 00:32:53,200
Flow at chain.
I don't think they, they have

533
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:56,900
Bulgarian, but if they got down
14, I don't think he ever comes

534
00:32:56,900 --> 00:32:59,900
in because I think Derek and
say, well, we can run the ball

535
00:32:59,900 --> 00:33:02,800
but you're sitting there.
It's like okay, but if we run

536
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,200
the ball, Ball.
And we're taking time-consuming

537
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,500
drives, they're taking
time-consuming trials.

538
00:33:07,700 --> 00:33:13,300
They prove, they can move the
ball on us not at will, but

539
00:33:13,300 --> 00:33:15,000
situationally they can move the
ball on us.

540
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:18,300
I don't think he comes in.
I think they put Conan and say,

541
00:33:18,300 --> 00:33:21,500
Hey, you know, let's let's swing
it out, let's swing it.

542
00:33:21,500 --> 00:33:24,200
Let's see what we can do because
we're not running the football

543
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:28,600
effectively and I mean we didn't
do what we needed to do in some

544
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:32,000
ways in that, in that regard on
D4, that we did a good job of

545
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,800
containing the running game.
And that never really hurt us

546
00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,000
badly.
If we were worse in the Red

547
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,500
Zone, we were worse than the Red
Zone against the run, but in the

548
00:33:42,500 --> 00:33:45,200
middle of the field, we did a
good job against the run, so

549
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,300
they got 170 yards.
They ran the ball over 40 times.

550
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,300
It should have been, you know,
three, three and a half, but I'm

551
00:33:54,300 --> 00:33:57,700
not going to argue over over for
nothing really.

552
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,100
We'll talk about that in a few
minutes.

553
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:05,500
But overall, it's just
everything we've talked about

554
00:34:05,500 --> 00:34:09,300
these first 30 minutes or it's
just a cataclysm of coaching,

555
00:34:09,699 --> 00:34:13,600
kids played their hearts out.
Kids will put when the kids were

556
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:15,699
put in good positions last
night.

557
00:34:15,699 --> 00:34:19,400
The kids executed in the kids,
turned it into positive yards.

558
00:34:20,300 --> 00:34:25,100
It wasn't one of these games
where it was a, you know, it was

559
00:34:25,100 --> 00:34:28,500
a great play call and we screwed
up when they were good play

560
00:34:28,500 --> 00:34:32,900
calls the kids got yards.
There was like, you know, we've

561
00:34:32,900 --> 00:34:35,900
talked and we've already done a
couple plays here there, where

562
00:34:35,900 --> 00:34:39,699
execution was the factor, and
one of them being the, the

563
00:34:39,699 --> 00:34:43,500
second down call on our last
offensive position what I'd say.

564
00:34:43,500 --> 00:34:46,500
Next-to-last.
Yeah, counting, the, you know,

565
00:34:46,500 --> 00:34:48,900
the random to plays, we ran
after they kick the field goal.

566
00:34:49,699 --> 00:34:53,900
We don't really count those.
I mean because BB's arm hurting

567
00:34:53,900 --> 00:34:58,700
and less you hit a, you know, a
30-yard host.

568
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,100
Get you to Midfield where you
can burn a timeout.

569
00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:04,700
I mean you had to have some
miracle happen and that is was

570
00:35:04,700 --> 00:35:07,000
not in the cards last night, all
right?

571
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:08,500
Brian.

Now back to the episode All

582
00:35:41,900 --> 00:35:44,100
right, but before we jump into
the topic.

583
00:35:45,100 --> 00:35:47,500
Explain the rule at the
Cincinnati kick today.

584
00:35:48,500 --> 00:35:52,300
As you see that one, like it
literally when it hit the flag

585
00:35:52,300 --> 00:35:54,900
behind it like it went over the
bar.

586
00:35:56,400 --> 00:36:01,600
It went, it went over the bar
outside of the side of the bar,

587
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,500
and then hit the flag on the
back side.

588
00:36:03,500 --> 00:36:09,500
So you never actually went.
But between the bar perspective,

589
00:36:09,500 --> 00:36:14,700
wise it was, it's hard to see
from where they were kicking

590
00:36:14,700 --> 00:36:16,300
from.
And, from the sidelines, I get

591
00:36:16,300 --> 00:36:20,700
why they thought it was in, but
it wasn't then.

592
00:36:21,300 --> 00:36:25,100
All right, thanks rule. 101.
Also, Mason cries being that

593
00:36:25,100 --> 00:36:26,000
game.
Yeah.

594
00:36:27,500 --> 00:36:29,100
It ends up kicking the game
winner.

595
00:36:29,100 --> 00:36:31,300
But damn.
It was an adventure getting

596
00:36:31,300 --> 00:36:34,500
there.
Look like a golfer who had the

597
00:36:34,500 --> 00:36:40,900
hips for about three holes, like
just pull, pull, pull finally

598
00:36:40,900 --> 00:36:42,000
got it, right?
All right.

599
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:46,600
Well, Ron, let's jump back.
Offensive notes on and let's

600
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,300
talk about this first, the
offensive line, we're still

601
00:36:49,300 --> 00:36:52,300
trying to find the right group.
I know, I noticed Parker

602
00:36:52,300 --> 00:36:56,000
Clemente out there a few times
last night Silas was back in the

603
00:36:56,100 --> 00:36:57,400
The lineup.
Thank goodness.

604
00:36:59,300 --> 00:37:03,400
I don't remember seeing Johnny
Jordan any what did you notice

605
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,300
in?
You know, what would you do

606
00:37:06,300 --> 00:37:09,200
going forward?
Because I do remember him.

607
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,800
Remember a couple of driving
implements was in.

608
00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:15,800
We were more effective and not
am not going to Silas again.

609
00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:18,600
It's tough to pay attention to
the offensive line when it's a

610
00:37:18,607 --> 00:37:21,600
side view.
Yeah.

611
00:37:22,300 --> 00:37:25,700
I think the problem is that they
haven't found what their best

612
00:37:25,700 --> 00:37:28,800
five.
Is, and I think this was a bad

613
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:32,100
game to try to keep
experimenting with that.

614
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:38,500
I mean, we praise Vice for some
things that have happened in the

615
00:37:38,508 --> 00:37:41,200
last couple years.
But I mean, this is something

616
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,200
that's getting a little old this
year is that we haven't settled

617
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:47,100
on a five.
And that's not not, you know,

618
00:37:47,100 --> 00:37:49,200
notwithstanding the fact that
we've had some injuries.

619
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:53,700
I mean, that's that's obviously
a concern, but that's not the

620
00:37:53,700 --> 00:37:55,500
only problem that we're dealing
with here.

621
00:37:55,500 --> 00:37:59,200
Is that That we're still trying
to figure out what our best five

622
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:02,800
grouping is even when we got
healthy Guys, across the board,

623
00:38:04,300 --> 00:38:06,500
you know, we saw Brock come
back, Brock, probably played his

624
00:38:06,500 --> 00:38:09,000
best game in the season.
Yes, yeah.

625
00:38:10,500 --> 00:38:14,700
With the exception of penalties
which, you know, the ineligible

626
00:38:14,700 --> 00:38:17,500
which, you know, I'm not getting
into that again.

627
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:22,400
Yeah, he had one false start.
I think that did back us up in a

628
00:38:22,408 --> 00:38:26,700
critical situation, but but you
saw just blocking lies.

629
00:38:26,700 --> 00:38:32,200
He was blocking wise, he played
as close to his performances

630
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,100
last year as I've seen from him
this year.

631
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:40,100
So I don't know if just that's
mindset or what it may be, but

632
00:38:40,300 --> 00:38:44,000
He definitely went out there and
played better, not perfect and

633
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,900
definitely still a couple errors
there, from a mental standpoint,

634
00:38:46,900 --> 00:38:51,600
but he cleaned up the
physicality and just being where

635
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:55,000
he needs to be every play.
And not losing his many battles

636
00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:58,700
in the trenches this week.
All right, let me ask this.

637
00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:04,600
Having Salle's Parker Clemente
banged up for implements

638
00:39:04,700 --> 00:39:06,700
obviously.
For West Virginia, Middle,

639
00:39:06,700 --> 00:39:08,600
Tennessee, State.
And I think I don't think he was

640
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,100
in Richmond.
I don't remember him.

641
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:11,600
Him.
I don't remember seeing him at

642
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:15,600
Richmond.
If he was, he was how much did

643
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,200
having those guys out?
Because, again, we talked about

644
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:20,500
it.
Those are the games to

645
00:39:20,500 --> 00:39:22,900
experiment, to try different
place.

646
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,100
But when you don't have that
opportunity, unfortunately, we

647
00:39:26,100 --> 00:39:29,200
had to do it against Notre Dame.
Probably a top ten fifteen

648
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:30,900
defense, under Freeman this
year.

649
00:39:32,700 --> 00:39:36,400
You know, in the next games, I
don't get any easier either

650
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,100
pits, not as good defensively as
Notre Dame, but it's going to,

651
00:39:40,300 --> 00:39:42,700
One of those games we were going
to have to score.

652
00:39:45,500 --> 00:39:48,000
Yeah, we're going to have to
score some points against Pitt

653
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:49,900
because they're going to score
some points against us.

654
00:39:49,900 --> 00:39:52,800
And you know the offensive line
has been a problem but we also

655
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:54,400
talk about the running back
room.

656
00:39:55,300 --> 00:39:59,100
You know we've had inconsistency
there, I think you know

657
00:39:59,100 --> 00:40:02,700
Blackshear has been the most
consistent player offensively in

658
00:40:02,700 --> 00:40:07,700
terms of kind of all-purpose
yards rate but we just have not

659
00:40:07,700 --> 00:40:10,100
gotten a footing where we can
get a consistent running.

660
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:14,500
Game going and I still go back
to with you know, we looked in

661
00:40:14,500 --> 00:40:16,600
this game and we had both, we
had two quarterbacks, they were

662
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:20,400
completely banged up.
Yeah but we're still not

663
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:25,100
incorporating.
The read part of the the option

664
00:40:25,100 --> 00:40:30,900
part of the read option like we
need to and that's areas where

665
00:40:31,500 --> 00:40:34,800
if we can get Braxton the slide
that he could actually use use

666
00:40:34,800 --> 00:40:38,900
that that at speed to his
Advantage especially you know,

667
00:40:38,900 --> 00:40:42,700
getting some some Court.
Clean alleys on that backside of

668
00:40:42,700 --> 00:40:46,300
the, of the play.
But we're not doing that.

669
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,000
Well, we can't, we can't even do
it now.

670
00:40:48,900 --> 00:40:51,800
No, because if he plays this
week, he's going to be.

671
00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:56,700
We know he's banged.
Yeah and you know you can

672
00:40:56,700 --> 00:40:59,100
speculate is it a dislocated
shoulder?

673
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:03,100
I don't think heat or anything.
I don't think heat or anything

674
00:41:03,100 --> 00:41:05,600
because I think when they took
him to the locker room, he

675
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,200
wouldn't have been able to.
He would have been on throw the

676
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:08,700
ball.
If he if he had torn something

677
00:41:08,700 --> 00:41:10,000
they would have done the flex
test.

678
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,900
Right.
And essentially reflects test,

679
00:41:12,900 --> 00:41:14,600
even with adrenaline pumping,
you're going to be there.

680
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,300
A range of motion will show.
You've torn something you can't

681
00:41:17,300 --> 00:41:19,900
do anything, we need an MRI.
So it's either a dislocated

682
00:41:19,900 --> 00:41:23,400
shoulder or maybe it's a deep
bruise on his shoulder where

683
00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:29,500
it's like, 12 take the pills
last night, you know, to get

684
00:41:29,500 --> 00:41:31,100
back in there and be able to
throw.

685
00:41:31,300 --> 00:41:34,200
So if he's out and then blowing
it for goodness, sakes.

686
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:38,600
I mean, Bromley got wrecked on
that play, right to his ribs.

687
00:41:39,300 --> 00:41:44,200
So he's probably out, you know,
we'll hopefully hear something

688
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,500
tomorrow.
I highly doubt it on, the

689
00:41:46,700 --> 00:41:48,700
probably won't put it on stream
either tomorrow.

690
00:41:48,700 --> 00:41:54,400
So we'll have to be my key and
my light McDaniels Andy.

691
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:58,100
Bitter - Zoli has just tweak
good tomorrow so we know

692
00:41:58,100 --> 00:42:03,300
exactly.
So you down to mocks then and

693
00:42:03,300 --> 00:42:05,200
knocks and Bullock is the
backup.

694
00:42:05,700 --> 00:42:09,000
So you know, we talk about the
running back who probably had 20

695
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:12,600
Aries that yesterday, we had 37
carries total.

696
00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:17,500
They were at 20.
So, you know, and you know, he

697
00:42:17,500 --> 00:42:24,200
led the way with, you know,
eight at 35 and then they gave

698
00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,700
Sean King of couple, Malachi
Thomas, had some run and then

699
00:42:27,700 --> 00:42:36,100
Jalen had some run.
And it You can see as much as we

700
00:42:36,100 --> 00:42:38,100
can say, we need a running
quarterback in this offense.

701
00:42:38,100 --> 00:42:39,600
I think you got to have running
backs.

702
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,200
Honestly, do you think you got
to have them running backs in

703
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:47,100
this offense, who can go and
come with skill sets that are

704
00:42:47,100 --> 00:42:52,700
different because Khalil Herbert
had it and you can see it Khalil

705
00:42:52,700 --> 00:42:54,700
Herbert.
Also had a better offensive line

706
00:42:54,700 --> 00:42:59,400
and across the group and I think
with with the deficiencies that

707
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:04,300
we have at at least two
positions on this offensive

708
00:43:04,300 --> 00:43:09,900
line, we need some of that run
threat element from the

709
00:43:09,900 --> 00:43:12,700
quarterback position to really
be effective running the

710
00:43:12,700 --> 00:43:15,000
football even when we give the
ball to the backs.

711
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:19,000
I mean at this point, they're
not honoring the read option.

712
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:23,500
Unless we go into the like an
inverted v r.

713
00:43:23,500 --> 00:43:25,800
Look if we're just running a
straight read option, they are

714
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:29,400
not honoring that at all.
It was there times last night

715
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,400
where Phoebe would have tuck.
He would have had 25 or 30

716
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:33,200
yards.
Yeah.

717
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:35,200
And can we talk about something
else real quick?

718
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:40,300
Since we're on the quarterbacks,
okay, You know, we talked about

719
00:43:40,300 --> 00:43:44,100
that we talked about Connor,
blumrich being a good package

720
00:43:44,100 --> 00:43:48,500
quarter bag with a short yardage
goal, line things like that.

721
00:43:48,900 --> 00:43:54,100
But when when Braxton got hurt,
why was blumrich running the

722
00:43:54,100 --> 00:43:58,300
single wing are playing be at
the quarterback position.

723
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:02,900
Again coaching coaching not
players.

724
00:44:03,100 --> 00:44:06,600
He went out and executed the
best he could the other clown

725
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:09,800
who seemed knocks come in and we
No knocks at Clemson in a big

726
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,300
situation.
Last year.

727
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,300
Essentially running normal
offense.

728
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:17,100
Yeah.
Well, there is, there is That's

729
00:44:17,100 --> 00:44:20,000
how the ball is.
So messed up, it is.

730
00:44:20,300 --> 00:44:23,400
And it feels like they just,
they're, they're rudderless,

731
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:27,100
they don't know.
When good things happen, it

732
00:44:27,100 --> 00:44:33,200
happens because Athletics the
players make plays but it's it's

733
00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:38,000
it doesn't look like, I mean and
even when their scheme the the

734
00:44:38,100 --> 00:44:43,000
like it just feels like they
have so many periods where it

735
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:47,000
feels like they don't know what
they're doing next and it feels

736
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,200
like they play tight like
they're scared to mess up that

737
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:53,200
they don't go out there and just
all right.

738
00:44:54,100 --> 00:44:58,400
Have a chance to compete.
I want to Proclaim and you tell

739
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:02,700
me if you did not see it Jekyll
and Hyde play calling that first

740
00:45:02,700 --> 00:45:04,600
touchdown Drive.
I listed everything we did.

741
00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:06,600
And I know some of that would
have been in the script.

742
00:45:07,100 --> 00:45:11,400
But last night there were a
times where we were like The

743
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:12,900
Comeback route you talking
about.

744
00:45:12,900 --> 00:45:16,900
We had some of those, some of
the out, the 15 yard out.

745
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:20,300
We have some of those obviously,
the tadion Robinson play, I

746
00:45:20,300 --> 00:45:22,800
talked about.
We had some of those we went

747
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:24,500
under Center a cup.
Four pounds.

748
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:27,400
That's what we talked about by
week, guys.

749
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:31,400
We talked about that was
elements of of Memphis, and TCU

750
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:35,500
that had been a part of the
Fuente offense, even if it

751
00:45:35,500 --> 00:45:39,300
wasn't necessarily a Hallmark of
the Fuente offense, when

752
00:45:39,300 --> 00:45:42,400
situations call for door, when
you really just want to run the

753
00:45:42,408 --> 00:45:45,400
damn ball between the tackles,
they would go under Center.

754
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:48,700
They would have an h-back that
would do multiple things for

755
00:45:48,700 --> 00:45:51,600
them when they went under
Center, whether it be kind of

756
00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:55,700
just leading out as a typical
fullback, whether it be Coming

757
00:45:55,700 --> 00:45:58,000
across the formation to from
kick-outs.

758
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,300
It was several different things
they would do under Center and

759
00:46:01,300 --> 00:46:08,200
we, you know, we finally saw
them try that and it worked, but

760
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:11,600
we why not stick with some of
that, why not?

761
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,400
That's why I still question.
It's a Jekyll and Hyde thing

762
00:46:16,300 --> 00:46:19,400
who's calling plays who's making
these decisions because at

763
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:23,100
times, it seems like you always
talk about sequencing.

764
00:46:23,100 --> 00:46:25,200
That's one of your big things
and I think you playing at

765
00:46:25,300 --> 00:46:29,000
Sydney for Marty, you saw a guy
who knew how to sequence plays

766
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:32,000
and make setups and show things
that will be shown later.

767
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,100
And there were times last night,
where it felt like the

768
00:46:35,100 --> 00:46:36,900
sequences, it was just like
boom.

769
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:38,700
And then boom, we didn't food,
we did.

770
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,800
And next thing, you know, this
shit we're in a Red Zone.

771
00:46:41,900 --> 00:46:44,400
How the hell are we move the
ball in the last three minutes?

772
00:46:45,300 --> 00:46:48,100
55 yards.
And then there were times last

773
00:46:48,100 --> 00:46:50,700
night where it was just like,
well, we've seen this story

774
00:46:50,700 --> 00:46:54,600
before.
It's, that's what I don't get.

775
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:56,400
That's where I go.
Question, what's happening

776
00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:58,600
behind that room?
Can I tell you?

777
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:04,200
When we look our best go for it,
we look our best when we need to

778
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:08,400
score and we're running out of
clock when we go Tempo and we

779
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:13,800
have to get a point and we start
playing loose and not thinking

780
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:22,800
as much Because look, I mean, if
and I appreciate before halftime

781
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:26,600
and we could have sat on that
ball went to halftime.

782
00:47:26,700 --> 00:47:30,300
I thought we were and we didn't
come like we're needing out.

783
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:36,500
But we did, and we did.
And that, that was as good of a

784
00:47:36,500 --> 00:47:39,000
sequence of offense, as they
played the entire night.

785
00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,500
I mean, there were other other
drives that went longer and got

786
00:47:41,500 --> 00:47:45,100
more points, but that, that
those sequence of plays were

787
00:47:45,100 --> 00:47:48,600
very good.
And the problem is that we don't

788
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,400
see that for sustained periods
throughout a game.

789
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:56,100
We don't and it really sucks for
guys like Trey Turner and Tavian

790
00:47:56,100 --> 00:47:59,900
Robinson, whether what your
opinion is Trey's the best wide

791
00:47:59,900 --> 00:48:03,200
receiver on the team tavio.
On the a very close second and

792
00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:08,400
those guys last night had 140 of
the yards, receiving to add

793
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:13,700
another 10 on his a couple of
his runs and they only had I

794
00:48:13,700 --> 00:48:15,700
need to do something here.
Brian, let me look at the Box

795
00:48:15,700 --> 00:48:17,700
real quick.
I had it up a second ago and I

796
00:48:17,700 --> 00:48:19,500
pulled it down.
You're good.

797
00:48:20,100 --> 00:48:27,500
We ran last night.
A total of 71 plays 71 plays.

798
00:48:29,100 --> 00:48:31,800
They got the ball in their hands
16 times.

799
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:39,100
Yeah.
That should be closer to 25.

800
00:48:41,500 --> 00:48:45,000
So you're telling us and and I'd
love to see Target rates of how

801
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,400
many were overthrown but give
credit there.

802
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:50,200
Weren't many balls that were
thrown other than the

803
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:53,300
interception, which we played
pretty clean last night.

804
00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:56,600
He cost us dearly because it was
so deep in our territory.

805
00:48:57,500 --> 00:49:01,500
But you've got to be thinking
about having to get those guys

806
00:49:01,500 --> 00:49:04,100
involved.
I mean, you saw earlier we tried

807
00:49:04,100 --> 00:49:06,000
to run an outside screen.
They say, well, we missed the

808
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:09,100
block and they essentially hit
Tavian back in the backfield.

809
00:49:09,100 --> 00:49:12,800
But if you're only saying, That
the two best Playmakers on your

810
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:22,900
team aren't even getting 25%.
Of the touches you know it's

811
00:49:22,900 --> 00:49:25,400
like where is your head out?
Defense would be one thing if we

812
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:32,300
were the Bastion of spreading
the ball around but we're not

813
00:49:32,300 --> 00:49:34,900
we're not hitting that category
very hard either.

814
00:49:34,900 --> 00:49:39,500
It's not like we're you know
you've got seven or eight guys

815
00:49:39,500 --> 00:49:41,800
with three plus catches either.
Right?

816
00:49:42,500 --> 00:49:46,000
Well yeah it's just it's a lot.
All right.

817
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:47,900
Brian.
Anything else you want to hit on

818
00:49:47,900 --> 00:49:51,000
the Offense, before we flip over
talk about defense for a minute.

819
00:49:51,300 --> 00:49:54,300
Let's go ahead and flip over
man, I'm ready to move on.

820
00:49:55,100 --> 00:49:58,200
We move on Lots on the offense.
Well last night, Brian it

821
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,300
finally happened, defensive
depth, the loss of Alec Bryant,

822
00:50:01,300 --> 00:50:04,700
the loss of Robert wound, Justin
Beatles, other guys who love.

823
00:50:04,700 --> 00:50:06,800
Finally reared its head,
especially on that.

824
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,500
Last round.
They were done for knowing.

825
00:50:08,500 --> 00:50:09,700
Garbutt.
We're done.

826
00:50:09,900 --> 00:50:13,600
We saw Eli Adams and Jalen, a
few times on the field.

827
00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:17,900
But we and I'm going to be very
interesting to see the snap.

828
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:24,300
accounts, but it's one of those
things where If we would have

829
00:50:24,300 --> 00:50:28,200
just had wooden and Brian to go
along.

830
00:50:29,500 --> 00:50:33,000
With getting some from Eli know,
we had coal Nelson out, saw him

831
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:38,600
later in the game.
It reared, its ugly head because

832
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:42,900
they were on the field like we
about split time of possession

833
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:48,400
and Notre Dame had you know I
think they had 70 plus plays to

834
00:50:49,500 --> 00:50:53,200
Notre Dame had 69 please because
seven basically seven them.

835
00:50:53,900 --> 00:50:56,000
You know, the same number of
plays about the same time of

836
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,700
possession.
Same times I've seen or plays we

837
00:50:58,700 --> 00:51:01,800
have been Keeping that somewhere
between 55 and 60 with the

838
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:04,000
pacing of the game.
Obviously this game with the

839
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:10,200
scoring the pick-6, it changed
and it sucks because the

840
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:18,700
interior has the depth, you can
see it, but I can probably I'll

841
00:51:18,700 --> 00:51:21,500
prefer to you on this if you're
eventually late in the game and

842
00:51:21,500 --> 00:51:23,600
you know, these guys aren't
getting their steps.

843
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,200
They can't bulrush.
How easy is it for your

844
00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:28,600
offensive line?
Coach say, listen, y'all just

845
00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,800
stay in his, they're not going
to get past the outside tackles

846
00:51:33,700 --> 00:51:38,500
yeah, I mean That's the problem
with death, right?

847
00:51:38,500 --> 00:51:43,000
And we know that that tier link
likes to rotate up to three full

848
00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:45,100
sets of lines at the defense of
wine.

849
00:51:45,500 --> 00:51:47,600
We don't have that we don't we
don't have that.

850
00:51:48,500 --> 00:51:53,900
We've got five solid D.
Tackles, we've got three solid

851
00:51:53,900 --> 00:51:57,800
defensive ends with two, that
are one undersized and another

852
00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:02,700
coming along.
And we're just not there where

853
00:52:02,700 --> 00:52:07,500
we feel like we can in a
situation where they have to

854
00:52:07,500 --> 00:52:11,700
score the ball to win the game.
You know, the trade-off there is

855
00:52:11,700 --> 00:52:15,200
you put your best guys out there
that are beat or you put your

856
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:19,500
second line out there.
That doesn't have the top-end

857
00:52:19,700 --> 00:52:22,600
ability that you need in the
situation.

858
00:52:23,100 --> 00:52:27,200
So it we were put in a situation
where you're damned, if you do

859
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:30,400
damned if you don't and it ended
up biting us and you know, you

860
00:52:30,500 --> 00:52:33,200
You can second-guess those
choices in terms of who, what

861
00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:36,600
personnel was out there at that
time but you know you want your

862
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:40,100
best guys out there you Hope
they've got enough in the tank,

863
00:52:40,100 --> 00:52:43,900
but we're at a point now where
snap counts are going up and we

864
00:52:43,900 --> 00:52:49,700
are even coming off a bye, you
know play in 69 snaps and I mean

865
00:52:49,700 --> 00:52:52,000
I'm not sure what the snap count
was for bar.

866
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:54,100
No.
And Garbutt.

867
00:52:54,100 --> 00:52:57,200
But if it's anywhere, in that
same percentage that we've seen

868
00:52:57,200 --> 00:53:01,600
through the first four games,
it's Higher than tear leak would

869
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:05,400
like it to be.
And you know when we don't have

870
00:53:05,400 --> 00:53:07,900
that depth, we get into
situations like this.

871
00:53:07,900 --> 00:53:11,300
Where were their gas?
The defense isn't quite.

872
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:17,100
Yeah, able to able to hold up as
long as the back end either and

873
00:53:17,300 --> 00:53:21,500
shit happens, man.
And in a lot of that goes, we

874
00:53:21,500 --> 00:53:24,600
played a bad offensive line.
Yesterday, we only got two sacks

875
00:53:24,900 --> 00:53:26,500
to Total.
We talked about, we need to be

876
00:53:26,500 --> 00:53:29,700
up there, but they went to a
mobile quarterback.

877
00:53:30,500 --> 00:53:33,200
Lee.
And I think that's also what

878
00:53:33,700 --> 00:53:37,500
gasps the end, right?
Because yeah, couldn't be

879
00:53:37,500 --> 00:53:38,800
aggressive.
They couldn't pin their ears

880
00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:39,400
back.
They have a state

881
00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:41,700
responsibility.
They have chased the guy, her

882
00:53:41,700 --> 00:53:44,800
say it changed Buckner for two
and a half quarters.

883
00:53:45,300 --> 00:53:48,200
Yeah.
And now they were having to go

884
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:55,000
full-on pass rush and they're
gonna they didn't have legs left

885
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:57,900
and we weren't able to rotate
enough early in the contest to

886
00:53:57,900 --> 00:53:59,900
keep them fresh enough late in
the contest.

887
00:54:01,300 --> 00:54:05,500
And it's one of those things
where it's depth because

888
00:54:05,500 --> 00:54:08,600
obviously the quarterback room
at Notre Dame is very deep

889
00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:13,200
between cone Pine and Buckner.
We didn't talk about Buckner

890
00:54:13,500 --> 00:54:16,100
because up to this point,
Buckner had been more of a

891
00:54:16,100 --> 00:54:18,400
gadget blown, right?
By God, they sent him out there,

892
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:21,600
they'd run, you know, they'd run
a read-option, they'd run some

893
00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:24,000
Powers with them.
They run some leads and he's, I

894
00:54:24,008 --> 00:54:27,300
saw that on the stats, but I was
like, they might bring him in,

895
00:54:27,300 --> 00:54:32,300
but this is more as Pine or is
it Comb.

896
00:54:32,900 --> 00:54:35,700
And you know the worst thing
that happened he took that run

897
00:54:35,700 --> 00:54:39,300
late and we popped him because I
don't think Brian Kelly would

898
00:54:39,300 --> 00:54:41,900
have went back to comb.
I think it Butler will still

899
00:54:41,900 --> 00:54:47,400
healthy not taking that pop.
I think he sticks with them and

900
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:49,700
maybe we can win the game.
Maybe we don't.

901
00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:53,500
And a rear was a really a pop.
It looks like he kind of twisted

902
00:54:53,500 --> 00:54:55,400
his ankle after he made the
Royal there.

903
00:54:56,000 --> 00:55:00,200
Yeah, it didn't look bad either.
Like, oh, he'll be back.

904
00:55:01,900 --> 00:55:08,700
But again, an offensive line
that had been giving up close to

905
00:55:08,700 --> 00:55:12,200
15 hits behind the line of
scrimmage.

906
00:55:15,100 --> 00:55:17,800
You know, they give up to, or
actually do the quarterback

907
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:20,100
change, but then, in the other
part Brown, we talked about it.

908
00:55:20,107 --> 00:55:22,400
The other week were missed
tackles.

909
00:55:22,400 --> 00:55:24,800
We have them.
I see I can kill him.

910
00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:29,200
I had like five times, we had
them for losses and we couldn't

911
00:55:29,200 --> 00:55:31,000
finish the sack of couldn't
finish the Lost.

912
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,000
We missed the tackle and they
get back to the line of

913
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:37,500
scrimmage or three or four times
on Chris Tyree in about two or

914
00:55:37,500 --> 00:55:43,700
three times on Buckner and those
add up right over the course of

915
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,100
Of time.
And some of that is, you know,

916
00:55:46,100 --> 00:55:48,300
chasing guys that you weren't
expected to chase.

917
00:55:48,300 --> 00:55:52,500
But at the same time you're
coming off of by, we got to have

918
00:55:52,500 --> 00:55:55,700
some of that in our mind that
they could come out do something

919
00:55:55,700 --> 00:56:00,200
different.
And it's just another thing we

920
00:56:00,207 --> 00:56:02,900
talked about is missed tackles
and we didn't.

921
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:06,900
We had more missed tackles this
game than we probably had all

922
00:56:06,900 --> 00:56:10,100
year.
It's right there with the West

923
00:56:10,100 --> 00:56:14,300
Virginia game, but fortunately,
for us, they They didn't

924
00:56:14,300 --> 00:56:18,300
necessarily.
Result in knockout punches.

925
00:56:18,300 --> 00:56:22,700
It was more more Jabs, more
little knife Cuts things, we

926
00:56:22,700 --> 00:56:25,700
kept our defense on the field,
but unfortunately when we talk

927
00:56:25,700 --> 00:56:29,900
about what, how this game came
to an end, you know, those are

928
00:56:29,900 --> 00:56:33,300
the things that that hurts you
because that gives them that

929
00:56:33,300 --> 00:56:36,200
that's a 3 that turns into a
touchdown potentially because

930
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:40,700
I'm extended drive.
And then, the more plays you

931
00:56:40,700 --> 00:56:43,800
play, the more gas, you get.
Then at the end, you can't can't

932
00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,000
quite get enough to get them off
the field again.

933
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:50,000
So, Every little thing kind of
plays off each other.

934
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,000
And that's, that's, there's
little things we got to get

935
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,100
better at.
I like the way in my cuts

936
00:56:55,100 --> 00:56:59,400
because it was where instead of
being second and nine, they

937
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:03,200
missed the tackle.
It's second and six.

938
00:57:03,900 --> 00:57:07,700
It opens the Playbook more or
you stop them.

939
00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:12,000
And it's 4th and 2.
Well, no, it's they, you missed

940
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:13,600
it.
The only got an extra yard.

941
00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:18,800
And you know, that's one of
those things where you feel for

942
00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:21,200
the defenses.
Like if you're doing that, it

943
00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:23,200
means everybody's getting to the
ball.

944
00:57:24,300 --> 00:57:27,300
But the goal is, if you gotta
stop and where they are because

945
00:57:27,300 --> 00:57:30,900
the actually aren't had no.
I mean, if you really, if

946
00:57:30,900 --> 00:57:36,400
somebody wants to nerd out and
has more time than we do, go

947
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:37,900
through and start killing the
extra yards.

948
00:57:37,900 --> 00:57:41,500
I would probably guess it's
somewhere between 60 and 70 just

949
00:57:41,500 --> 00:57:43,100
knowing how many tackles we
missed.

950
00:57:43,100 --> 00:57:47,700
And like, I can't remember when
this was and the game had wrote

951
00:57:47,700 --> 00:57:52,400
down here, we could not finish a
sack off and I think he ran for

952
00:57:52,400 --> 00:58:02,400
an additional and therefore
through my notes from last

953
00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:06,400
night, all the pages of notes
from last night.

954
00:58:07,900 --> 00:58:12,900
It was later in the game.
But anyway, I wrote down, he

955
00:58:12,900 --> 00:58:15,400
essentially missed, we couldn't
finish the sack, there's gonna

956
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:16,700
be like a six or seven yard
loss.

957
00:58:16,700 --> 00:58:18,700
And I think he went for like six
or seven more.

958
00:58:19,700 --> 00:58:25,000
Because a plus 14 game right
there, that's a ton on brought.

959
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:26,300
I'll say this about the second
day.

960
00:58:26,300 --> 00:58:28,300
We might struggle to stop them
in the back end.

961
00:58:28,300 --> 00:58:31,800
We get closer to the goal.
But as you said last week on

962
00:58:31,800 --> 00:58:34,400
Wednesday night we force them to
drive.

963
00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:35,800
We're going to force some
turnovers.

964
00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:40,300
Yep we housed one.
We stop the touchdown dry or a

965
00:58:40,300 --> 00:58:43,700
potential scoring drive.
This your peoples in Armani

966
00:58:43,700 --> 00:58:47,500
Chapman dropped, one that would
have set us up perfect.

967
00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:53,200
The secondary It's not the elite
level yet.

968
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:58,200
They are heading that way but we
got we got ball Hawks back

969
00:58:58,200 --> 00:59:00,100
there.
Something we hadn't seen the

970
00:59:00,100 --> 00:59:04,700
last few years on this defense.
Yeah, it's probably the I'll be

971
00:59:04,700 --> 00:59:06,000
out.
We said it before the season.

972
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:08,100
Probably the best.
We felt about the secondary at

973
00:59:08,100 --> 00:59:10,100
the beginning of a season in a
long time.

974
00:59:10,100 --> 00:59:15,400
We did know obviously what the
combination of Farley and Waller

975
00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:18,800
was going to look like start at
the start of the season in 2019

976
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:23,200
but I mean, they've lived up to
my expectations.

977
00:59:23,200 --> 00:59:25,500
So far.
Jermaine Waller has come back as

978
00:59:25,500 --> 00:59:28,200
a force.
We finally got that defensive

979
00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:30,500
touchdown this week with him.
You know.

980
00:59:30,500 --> 00:59:34,100
He's a, he's been a pic machine
so far this season and been

981
00:59:34,100 --> 00:59:37,500
really solid and coverage.
He did get beat at one time, but

982
00:59:37,500 --> 00:59:39,600
he was step for step that was
just a perfect throw.

983
00:59:39,600 --> 00:59:44,200
I mean, it's hard to stop that
and the other guys are coming,

984
00:59:44,200 --> 00:59:49,300
along Armani Chapman's had, he's
had a couple games that haven't

985
00:59:49,300 --> 00:59:52,700
been great, but they Still solid
enough and he's had some of the

986
00:59:52,700 --> 00:59:55,000
better.
These played his best overall

987
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:58,100
football this season.
So you like seeing that like

988
00:59:58,100 --> 01:00:01,700
seeing him come along and in
Dorian, strong is continuing to

989
01:00:01,700 --> 01:00:04,100
progress as well.
He needs to get a little bit

990
01:00:04,100 --> 01:00:09,000
better against the run and being
Vivian physical in the

991
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:11,000
secondary.
I think that's one area that he

992
01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:13,100
still kind of coming into his
own with.

993
01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:16,200
So I'd like to see more progress
there.

994
01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:19,200
But yeah, Hawks across the
board, man.

995
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:22,300
And I like, I like the way
that's trending.

996
01:00:22,700 --> 01:00:26,900
So shout out to Ryan Smith for
really making, not only, you

997
01:00:26,900 --> 01:00:29,800
know, things happen on the
recruiting Trail, but also

998
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:33,300
putting a good product out there
on the field as well.

999
01:00:33,700 --> 01:00:35,400
Putting a good product out there
on the field.

1000
01:00:35,500 --> 01:00:39,500
Not afraid to make changes, not
afraid to put certain guys ahead

1001
01:00:39,500 --> 01:00:45,300
of certain guys that they've
lived up and Jermaine Waller.

1002
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:49,800
I think he now leads the country
in interceptions every week.

1003
01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:53,600
More money, little more money, a
little better draft pick every

1004
01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:56,200
single week.
Alright, Braun.

1005
01:00:56,300 --> 01:00:58,700
I don't know what you're doing
about 1:00 today.

1006
01:00:59,100 --> 01:01:03,700
So what was going on?
We're just watching football,

1007
01:01:03,700 --> 01:01:07,700
where you read an article.
Because this tweet you sent out

1008
01:01:07,700 --> 01:01:10,600
has blown up.
And if you guys haven't seen it,

1009
01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:13,900
122 from Brian these accounts
eat 50 52.

1010
01:01:13,900 --> 01:01:19,300
He says the following Since it's
being asked, I'll put this out

1011
01:01:19,300 --> 01:01:23,200
there at this point, the
benefits of fire and a coach far

1012
01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:26,200
outweigh the risks.
If the goal is to compete for an

1013
01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:29,800
AC side, see title every season
and potentially make the playoff

1014
01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:32,300
once every six years, which this
would have been the year.

1015
01:01:32,300 --> 01:01:38,800
Based on how Clemson has looked
the Fugees, ain't the guy and

1016
01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:41,400
you're done with meteor akka T,
what was going on?

1017
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:46,000
What what what just what
triggered that part of all well,

1018
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:48,600
I Was watching football.
I had went back and started

1019
01:01:48,600 --> 01:01:52,000
looking at some of the
highlights from the game and

1020
01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:55,800
just thinking about how I was
feeling in the game last night

1021
01:01:55,800 --> 01:02:00,900
and how I kept replaying it.
And, you know, we started this

1022
01:02:00,900 --> 01:02:03,300
with same old song and dance and
I feel like that's where we're

1023
01:02:03,300 --> 01:02:05,800
at.
And when you, when you're get to

1024
01:02:05,800 --> 01:02:11,400
that point and you're not seeing
Improvement, Just getting by

1025
01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:15,700
isn't enough anymore.
Now, we've been getting by, we

1026
01:02:15,700 --> 01:02:21,500
can average.
We've been mediocre since 2017,

1027
01:02:21,900 --> 01:02:25,700
2017?
When he I'll throw 2017 in

1028
01:02:25,700 --> 01:02:30,700
there, I think.
We had more, we could have won

1029
01:02:30,700 --> 01:02:34,900
more games in 2017 that we did.
We exactly.

1030
01:02:34,900 --> 01:02:38,100
And that's and that to me, is
when it started, that's that.

1031
01:02:38,100 --> 01:02:42,700
That to me counts, if you're
leaving multiple games on your

1032
01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:48,100
schedule every year that you
should win, Then that's that,

1033
01:02:48,100 --> 01:02:53,100
that's being mediocre and it
started then, you know.

1034
01:02:53,100 --> 01:02:58,400
And and what I'm going to say is
this, we're in year six, we're

1035
01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:01,000
Beyond where, okay, you get a
pass.

1036
01:03:01,300 --> 01:03:05,400
Yes, that's your for.
So 2017, a couple losses that

1037
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:09,400
should have been wins.
You gotta pass 2018, you had a

1038
01:03:09,408 --> 01:03:12,100
bunch of people leave.
You had a bunch of people that

1039
01:03:12,100 --> 01:03:15,700
were ineligible You were young
as hell.

1040
01:03:16,600 --> 01:03:21,600
Pass, 2019.
That's when we started saying

1041
01:03:22,700 --> 01:03:27,100
started, it started early, it
started with Duke and then you

1042
01:03:27,100 --> 01:03:31,300
turn it around a little bit.
Unfortunately, you left us with

1043
01:03:31,300 --> 01:03:34,900
a bad taste in our mouth with
UVA and then Kentucky.

1044
01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:42,100
You start to not get the pass
then 2020 happens.

1045
01:03:42,700 --> 01:03:49,600
And pretty much covid and maybe
a past appearances wit.

1046
01:03:49,600 --> 01:03:52,600
Gave you a pass.
I don't think us as a whole gave

1047
01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:54,100
you a pass, but went gave you a
pass.

1048
01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:58,600
We gave you a pass.
Alright, so now we're in 2021,

1049
01:03:58,600 --> 01:04:02,100
we're in year six, I'm done
giving passes.

1050
01:04:02,300 --> 01:04:05,800
Oh no, and I know that from a
from a mathematical standpoint.

1051
01:04:06,700 --> 01:04:10,300
The coastal is still ours for
the taking, but does anyone

1052
01:04:10,300 --> 01:04:13,800
listening to this feel
comfortable zero?

1053
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,800
That it's going to happen?
I've been a confident that

1054
01:04:16,800 --> 01:04:18,900
confident.
I'm not saying that we can't do

1055
01:04:18,900 --> 01:04:21,600
it.
I'm saying, I have no confidence

1056
01:04:21,900 --> 01:04:23,600
that it will happen.
We have this.

1057
01:04:23,700 --> 01:04:27,300
I don't feel confident about
Georgia Tech anymore.

1058
01:04:27,300 --> 01:04:29,700
I definitely don't feel
confident about pit especially

1059
01:04:29,700 --> 01:04:32,900
because Braxton's, probably not
playing, I don't, I'm not sure

1060
01:04:32,900 --> 01:04:36,000
how I feel about Syracuse.
I'm not sure how I feel about

1061
01:04:36,000 --> 01:04:38,500
UVA.
Duke is the only game left on

1062
01:04:38,500 --> 01:04:40,600
our schedule.
That I feel 100% confident.

1063
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:44,600
We will wish.
Absolutely, I'm with you right

1064
01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:46,300
on that and I'm going to, I'm
going to still argue.

1065
01:04:46,300 --> 01:04:51,400
I don't I don't count 2017
because 2017 was still majority

1066
01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:56,500
of being requires.
That was though, in that year,

1067
01:04:56,500 --> 01:04:59,100
the losses were to Clemson and
went to the playoff.

1068
01:04:59,100 --> 01:05:02,400
Miami who had one lost the two
games you can say.

1069
01:05:02,400 --> 01:05:06,900
We shouldn't have lost.
That we did was Georgia Tech and

1070
01:05:06,900 --> 01:05:08,300
the bowl game?
Yep.

1071
01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:11,900
I can't, I can't go into there
and say that, you know, it is

1072
01:05:11,900 --> 01:05:13,700
what it is.
You lose to a team that similar

1073
01:05:13,700 --> 01:05:15,800
to you.
Oklahoma state was good that

1074
01:05:15,800 --> 01:05:17,700
year.
The Georgia Tech is the only

1075
01:05:17,700 --> 01:05:21,000
game you can say that you're
going to me 2018 up to this

1076
01:05:21,000 --> 01:05:24,800
point and you talk about
mediocrity 2018 up to this

1077
01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:26,300
point.
We are 22 and 20.

1078
01:05:26,300 --> 01:05:28,700
We are the definition of
mediocre.

1079
01:05:28,700 --> 01:05:32,900
We are the definition of average
and we are not used to that in

1080
01:05:32,908 --> 01:05:35,200
this program though.
Those who started while on this

1081
01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:38,300
program, especially in the
mid-1990s when we were in our

1082
01:05:38,300 --> 01:05:41,100
teens.
We're not used to that.

1083
01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:45,600
And it's in, it's in a somewhat.
It's other mediocrity bull.

1084
01:05:45,900 --> 01:05:50,400
It's a crap that he doesn't make
any changes that are takes me.

1085
01:05:50,400 --> 01:05:52,200
When your mediocre you have to
make changes.

1086
01:05:52,300 --> 01:05:55,800
He won't fire his friends.
He won't, he won't.

1087
01:05:56,500 --> 01:05:58,500
And that's that's a mediocre
thing.

1088
01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:00,800
Great coaches.
Don't do that great.

1089
01:06:00,800 --> 01:06:03,600
If we were bad and we didn't
have talent, and we were doing

1090
01:06:03,600 --> 01:06:05,700
this, Shit, I wouldn't feel bad
about it.

1091
01:06:05,700 --> 01:06:08,900
We have talented guys, we
screwed up the recruiting

1092
01:06:08,900 --> 01:06:12,000
footprint for a few years.
Luckily that's somewhat between

1093
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:15,900
Ron Smith, Justin Hamilton JC
price and Adam Lichtenberg death

1094
01:06:15,900 --> 01:06:18,700
slowly turning the corner.
Now, the one thing, I'll give

1095
01:06:18,700 --> 01:06:22,000
him a credit on is and I don't
know if this is him or behind

1096
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:24,900
the scenes people, but it seems
like alumni relations have

1097
01:06:24,900 --> 01:06:26,500
gotten there.
They were a ton of guys there.

1098
01:06:26,500 --> 01:06:29,600
Last night. 8:00 on a guy's
different arrows.

1099
01:06:30,500 --> 01:06:32,600
But everything else is so
mediocre.

1100
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:36,300
I mean, I'm giving that I'm
giving that bone to Dwight Vic

1101
01:06:36,300 --> 01:06:39,500
and the stock has been putting
together behind the scenes and

1102
01:06:39,500 --> 01:06:43,800
I'm giving to the I mean, yeah,
I'm sure some of that kind of

1103
01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:49,000
started with wit and I feel like
there is a push from the

1104
01:06:49,000 --> 01:06:52,400
athletic department that's
gearing up for that stuff.

1105
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:57,000
But at the same time I don't
think that when they was like,

1106
01:06:57,000 --> 01:06:59,800
Hey this this is going to be a
really good idea that's going to

1107
01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:02,900
You know do well for us?
I think I think it was something

1108
01:07:02,900 --> 01:07:06,000
that was brought to him.
He's like, okay, sure well good

1109
01:07:06,400 --> 01:07:09,300
and and whites doing a hell of a
job, you know, bringing that out

1110
01:07:09,300 --> 01:07:13,800
to fruition.
You see guys like John

1111
01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:16,200
McLaughlin and Luther Maddie
that are doing a lot of good

1112
01:07:16,200 --> 01:07:20,000
engagement on their podcast and
on the stuff that they do live

1113
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:23,600
at the game woman.
Yeah, you never bring a people

1114
01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:25,300
that you know you want to hear
from.

1115
01:07:25,300 --> 01:07:26,600
You want to hear they're doing
current.

1116
01:07:26,600 --> 01:07:31,300
Players are bringing former
players in in if nothing else.

1117
01:07:31,800 --> 01:07:38,300
What this era has brought out in
Virginia Tech is voices.

1118
01:07:39,100 --> 01:07:41,700
Yeah.
Voices of former players voices

1119
01:07:41,700 --> 01:07:49,100
of fans You know, in and I think
when we look back in a few years

1120
01:07:49,100 --> 01:07:51,600
it's going to be one of those
things where if this didn't

1121
01:07:51,600 --> 01:07:56,000
happen, we're probably a much
quieter fan base.

1122
01:07:56,700 --> 01:08:02,000
We're probably more status quo
but now it's not because we

1123
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:06,000
don't want to be mediocre.
We we were we were we were we

1124
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:09,000
were 15 minutes away from the
Mountaintop and 99.

1125
01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:11,900
We're 15 minutes away from the
Mountaintop.

1126
01:08:12,900 --> 01:08:16,800
And, and then the subsequent
years, you know, we were one and

1127
01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:20,100
two games away from.
Yeah, we were stacking 10-win

1128
01:08:20,100 --> 01:08:23,399
Seasons.
We were stacking trips to the

1129
01:08:23,899 --> 01:08:27,100
big conference title game.
Winning ACC championships.

1130
01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:29,300
We were playing Elite teams.
We were knocking some.

1131
01:08:29,300 --> 01:08:35,000
Aw, we were in when you get that
close in to where we are now.

1132
01:08:36,200 --> 01:08:38,700
That's what hurts that's what
hurts.

1133
01:08:39,399 --> 01:08:44,800
And what I fear is there's
there's and we've talked about

1134
01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:49,700
this before, Brian.
I don't want to see passion

1135
01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:52,800
every every Saturday, we lose
the game, I see people on the

1136
01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:56,500
timeline, you know, saying I'll
back out there again or fire.

1137
01:08:56,500 --> 01:09:00,399
The guy, we're not apathetic my
fear.

1138
01:09:00,899 --> 01:09:04,399
This is my biggest fear what
happens between now and June?

1139
01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:08,800
If we don't win a game that
hokey Hall of Fame, where these

1140
01:09:08,800 --> 01:09:13,100
going in and Drake fridge, going
in that it can be 50,000 people

1141
01:09:13,100 --> 01:09:16,399
there and it'll look nothing
like Lane Stadium.

1142
01:09:16,500 --> 01:09:20,800
Mmm, and that's apathy.
Once apathy hits wits in a shit

1143
01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:27,000
ton of trouble, and that's bad
because we've seen Lane and it's

1144
01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:30,600
best to times this year.
Yes, we had it at its fucking

1145
01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:34,800
best UNC.
And last night last night was

1146
01:09:34,899 --> 01:09:43,300
fucking gas and the more we move
away from that and fans fans

1147
01:09:43,300 --> 01:09:46,899
come out there.
They love this team but Got to

1148
01:09:46,899 --> 01:09:50,000
start rewarding your fans with
winds or they're not going to

1149
01:09:50,000 --> 01:09:52,100
come back.
Nope, they're not going to and

1150
01:09:52,100 --> 01:09:55,600
I'm not saying it's going to be
a wholesale all at once thing.

1151
01:09:56,300 --> 01:10:00,300
But you're going to see about
five to seven thousand less

1152
01:10:00,700 --> 01:10:04,200
every home game going forward as
an, especially once we get on

1153
01:10:04,200 --> 01:10:06,600
that road trip before we come
back for Duke.

1154
01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:10,300
Yeah, it's going to be
interesting, guys.

1155
01:10:10,300 --> 01:10:14,500
It's going to be interesting and
I'm with Curtis here, I'm more

1156
01:10:14,500 --> 01:10:16,400
concerned about what are the
long-term.

1157
01:10:16,500 --> 01:10:19,200
Term impacts and especially the
long-term impacts if we don't

1158
01:10:19,200 --> 01:10:23,200
make some sort of move this off
season, if things go south the

1159
01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:26,700
way we think it's going to go,
it has to be made, I don't care

1160
01:10:26,700 --> 01:10:29,100
if it's a 93, I don't care.
If we 6 in-1 and lock our way

1161
01:10:29,100 --> 01:10:35,000
into the ACC, how it's got to be
because there's nothing changed.

1162
01:10:35,700 --> 01:10:40,300
If you saw it and you can't sit
here and whip Babcock you cannot

1163
01:10:40,300 --> 01:10:45,600
sit here and put your chips on
this in no changes being made.

1164
01:10:45,600 --> 01:10:47,700
Because the thing is Is what we
said.

1165
01:10:47,700 --> 01:10:50,300
I said, at the beginning, what
we saw six years ago.

1166
01:10:50,900 --> 01:10:54,200
It's still the same today, there
is no such change.

1167
01:10:54,500 --> 01:10:58,400
And when there is no change, you
cannot expect to move forward.

1168
01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:05,200
And I know Alabama loss
yesterday, it literally took one

1169
01:11:05,200 --> 01:11:08,300
of Nick Saban's.
Proteges, it took 23 times for

1170
01:11:08,300 --> 01:11:09,600
somebody.
Finally beat that guy.

1171
01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:12,300
One of his Protege.
And guess what?

1172
01:11:13,700 --> 01:11:17,300
Think about Nick, Saban Brian.
If I told you 10 years ago, Nick

1173
01:11:17,300 --> 01:11:20,700
Saban's going to be running a
pseudo power spread with Pro

1174
01:11:20,700 --> 01:11:24,700
Concepts.
Not just, you know, two tight

1175
01:11:24,700 --> 01:11:27,400
ends a fullback, run the ball,
you would call me crazy.

1176
01:11:28,300 --> 01:11:33,000
Now, when you, what has he done?
He saw the future and he said,

1177
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:35,900
all right, I can get guys that
can run this in here.

1178
01:11:36,100 --> 01:11:40,900
I can make this happen and he
put in because and and honestly

1179
01:11:40,900 --> 01:11:44,500
because of the athletes he
recruits that they They can run

1180
01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:48,300
that type of offense.
They can move seamlessly.

1181
01:11:48,300 --> 01:11:51,200
Yeah, he he's like, all right,
we can move, we can change this

1182
01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:53,900
and he did.
And I think that's that's the

1183
01:11:53,900 --> 01:11:57,200
thing that's frustrating in the
thing that kind of highlights

1184
01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:03,100
all the other problems because I
feel like, you know, we don't

1185
01:12:03,100 --> 01:12:06,600
get on here and just Crush
Justin Fuente for every little

1186
01:12:06,600 --> 01:12:09,700
thing.
Yeah, we don't.

1187
01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:13,900
But when we see something that
is off, we say, say it.

1188
01:12:15,500 --> 01:12:18,800
And true.
The issue that we're having is

1189
01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:25,500
that things have been off in
terms of in game play calling,

1190
01:12:25,600 --> 01:12:30,100
in terms of in-game
decision-making that go beyond

1191
01:12:30,100 --> 01:12:33,700
just well, he's not recruiting,
he came out, he wasn't

1192
01:12:33,700 --> 01:12:37,900
recruiting Virginia like he
should, or he's not approachable

1193
01:12:37,900 --> 01:12:41,800
as a person that like we want
our head coach to be like all

1194
01:12:41,800 --> 01:12:43,400
that shit.
Wouldn't matter if we were

1195
01:12:43,400 --> 01:12:48,600
winning on Saturday's it we care
about it but it wouldn't matter

1196
01:12:48,600 --> 01:12:52,200
in the scheme of things went.
Well, when you stack, all of

1197
01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:55,200
that stuff, it's hard to make a
good case to keep the guy.

1198
01:12:55,200 --> 01:13:00,900
Because if, if you're, if your
goals, if you're not making

1199
01:13:00,900 --> 01:13:05,000
progress towards your goals then
you're gone.

1200
01:13:05,300 --> 01:13:07,800
You're like that, that that's
that's that's how it works.

1201
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:11,800
Like I can't set goals and make
no progress towards them and be

1202
01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:14,200
like, all right, well I'll just
try the same thing next year.

1203
01:13:14,300 --> 01:13:17,000
Ear, that's not how it works in
the real world that shouldn't be

1204
01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:18,500
how it works in college
football.

1205
01:13:19,000 --> 01:13:24,100
The goals of this football team
are to go to the ACC title game

1206
01:13:24,600 --> 01:13:31,400
every year And to potentially go
and win the ACC.

1207
01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:35,400
Putting yourself in position to
play for the college football,

1208
01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:39,500
in the, in the college football
playoff, every four to six

1209
01:13:39,500 --> 01:13:44,100
years.
If we had a six year, Outcome.

1210
01:13:45,200 --> 01:13:49,400
And you said that one of those
we won the ACC.

1211
01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:54,000
Yep.
One of those, we had an eighth

1212
01:13:54,000 --> 01:13:57,700
win season and the rest, we were
playing for the, for the

1213
01:13:57,700 --> 01:14:00,100
championship.
In those other four.

1214
01:14:01,500 --> 01:14:04,000
No one would have a problem.
That's that's that's what we

1215
01:14:04,000 --> 01:14:06,600
expect.
So that's what we want.

1216
01:14:06,700 --> 01:14:09,100
We be at 10 and a half would be
the average every year.

1217
01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:11,500
We'd expect somewhere between
nine.

1218
01:14:11,500 --> 01:14:13,300
And yeah somewhere between nine
and eleven.

1219
01:14:13,300 --> 01:14:17,000
Yeah, and no one would have an
issue but you know what?

1220
01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:19,300
Also that meant Brian they had
been they would have been

1221
01:14:19,300 --> 01:14:21,900
changes.
We would have seen the same crap

1222
01:14:21,900 --> 01:14:26,100
because usually what happens is
you make the changes you get

1223
01:14:26,100 --> 01:14:29,500
better.
And when you don't make changes

1224
01:14:29,500 --> 01:14:32,600
and you continue to do the same
routines, the same things.

1225
01:14:33,800 --> 01:14:36,700
You see, it's like, how comes
it's the momentum thing.

1226
01:14:36,700 --> 01:14:41,300
So even when we see positive in
one area, we don't stack that

1227
01:14:41,300 --> 01:14:45,000
with positive in another area.
Yeah so we saw some progress in

1228
01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:49,400
recruiting this year but if you
don't stack that with winds,

1229
01:14:49,400 --> 01:14:51,800
it's hard to keep classes.
It's hard to keep that momentum

1230
01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:54,900
in the recruiting game.
There's so many things that are

1231
01:14:54,900 --> 01:14:57,500
negatively impacted by losses on
the field in law.

1232
01:14:57,600 --> 01:15:00,800
Losses and gains that you have
the chance to win and don't.

1233
01:15:01,800 --> 01:15:04,900
That are going to trickle down.
And at some point we got to

1234
01:15:04,900 --> 01:15:12,200
decide is is pursuing.
This relationship, a positive

1235
01:15:12,200 --> 01:15:15,100
impact on reaching our goals,
and I think we're past that.

1236
01:15:15,100 --> 01:15:19,400
I think we know that pursuing.
This relationship further is not

1237
01:15:19,400 --> 01:15:22,000
going to help us reach our goals
and if that's what we've

1238
01:15:22,000 --> 01:15:24,300
decided, then we need to move
on.

1239
01:15:24,700 --> 01:15:28,200
Yeah it's definitely to me
regardless of outcome this year

1240
01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:30,300
it is going to be definitely
time to move on.

1241
01:15:31,900 --> 01:15:35,000
You got a big fundraiser in
front of you that you look at

1242
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:38,100
the bottom of our screen.
We score with it every week, and

1243
01:15:38,100 --> 01:15:40,900
if you're going to keep the guy
that probably win seven games,

1244
01:15:40,900 --> 01:15:44,300
maybe six this year, there's
going to be people that just

1245
01:15:44,300 --> 01:15:45,800
aren't going to open up their
pocketbooks.

1246
01:15:46,600 --> 01:15:49,200
I mean, I mean, for real, they
just be like, I'm not writing

1247
01:15:49,200 --> 01:15:52,500
the check, it's not worth my
time because you aren't taking

1248
01:15:52,500 --> 01:15:54,000
this seriously.
Yep.

1249
01:15:54,200 --> 01:15:57,200
Brian anything happened besides
the Sunday Night, Football game

1250
01:15:57,200 --> 01:16:00,800
currently in a delay.
I don't, that's good or bad for

1251
01:16:00,800 --> 01:16:07,500
me, but But, you know, dropping
news on players injuries.

1252
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:11,100
I don't see anything big man.
We can talk a little bit about

1253
01:16:11,100 --> 01:16:12,900
pick them before we wrap things
up here.

1254
01:16:13,600 --> 01:16:16,400
Oh, you won't actually he's
bringing it up, folks.

1255
01:16:16,400 --> 01:16:19,300
I'm bringing it up because I'm
gonna go ahead and get up there.

1256
01:16:19,300 --> 01:16:21,800
I was awful and games that we
pick different teams.

1257
01:16:22,900 --> 01:16:29,400
I had a weekend man. 7 + 3 7 and
3 M 4 games above 500.

1258
01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:35,400
Let me look here.
The the one that got me was

1259
01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:37,400
Michigan, that got both of us
though.

1260
01:16:37,500 --> 01:16:42,600
That was a three-point win.
I'm still shocked that you took

1261
01:16:42,600 --> 01:16:46,400
Auburn.
I mean that was the one that was

1262
01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:48,200
the one.
If you ask me, the Penn State

1263
01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:51,700
one that was a coin flip.
You had Whoever thought you were

1264
01:16:51,700 --> 01:16:55,700
going to win the game but the
orange I thought ago, was going

1265
01:16:55,700 --> 01:17:00,800
to finally struggle a little bit
in a game on offense.

1266
01:17:03,500 --> 01:17:05,900
To the point where their defense
wasn't able to really put the

1267
01:17:05,900 --> 01:17:10,000
game away, I thought I was going
to stay close enough, I was

1268
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:14,500
wrong.
Yeah, I was wrong.

1269
01:17:15,100 --> 01:17:18,100
We're on this week goes, what
are you in for Dan 6?

1270
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:23,000
Yeah, yeah, 14 16.
Yeah, hey, but you know what?

1271
01:17:23,500 --> 01:17:25,300
We got to do?
Georgia Tech game, right?

1272
01:17:26,100 --> 01:17:29,900
We finally got it right by this
much.

1273
01:17:30,100 --> 01:17:36,300
Yeah, she was narrow.
Georgia Tech finally didn't bite

1274
01:17:36,300 --> 01:17:39,900
me in the ass.
Well done, Georgia Tech, Barely

1275
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:45,800
There, Lee Georgia Tech barely
gets us.

1276
01:17:47,100 --> 01:17:51,900
So, you know, you know, we got a
week ahead with Pittman.

1277
01:17:53,500 --> 01:17:55,500
Some people are already saying
we're definitely going to beat

1278
01:17:55,500 --> 01:17:59,500
them.
If you do that blindly I mean

1279
01:18:00,300 --> 01:18:02,900
the only thing you're going off
with that is history.

1280
01:18:03,500 --> 01:18:07,100
Yeah and of how of how pain has
historically played in Lane

1281
01:18:07,100 --> 01:18:09,700
Stadium.
That's about the only thing that

1282
01:18:09,700 --> 01:18:11,600
gives me confidence about that
game.

1283
01:18:12,100 --> 01:18:15,000
It's true.
All right.

1284
