The Hokies try to shake off last week's late game letdown as they host the red hot offense of the Pittsburgh Panthers. We examine the Kenny Pickett led passing attack, the revamped Pitt defense, and what the Hokies have to do this week to stay atop the ACC Coastal standings.

00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,200
Welcome back to the boundary
Corner podcast.

2
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,800
I'm Curtis Wilson, I'm Brian
sigla buddy.

3
00:00:53,100 --> 00:00:55,700
Hump day, hope Day evening.
How you doing, man?

4
00:00:56,500 --> 00:00:58,900
One day evening, enjoying the
flight and logger.

5
00:00:59,300 --> 00:01:04,200
There you go, throwing back a
little bit of Hollywood's finest

6
00:01:04,300 --> 00:01:07,200
or at least Hollywood's party
with Sookie.

7
00:01:11,700 --> 00:01:14,900
Relaxing Grill, some pork chops
tonight on the grill.

8
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,500
A can't big tickle pork chops,
man.

9
00:01:19,500 --> 00:01:23,000
You cannot be looking nice
little girl in action.

10
00:01:23,700 --> 00:01:30,500
You know, I've had two days of
this, like come get off work and

11
00:01:30,500 --> 00:01:34,600
do nothing.
So, you know, I don't, I don't

12
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:40,200
know do it myself.
I've been soaking in the playoff

13
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,100
baseball.
We're so that's been happening.

14
00:01:44,900 --> 00:01:46,600
Yeah.
That that's been my go-to in the

15
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:51,000
evening.
You know, bright and nice little

16
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,200
break tonight.
Break tonight, congrats to the

17
00:01:55,400 --> 00:02:02,000
Bravo's and the stocks absolute
it on, to the a LCS and NLCS

18
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,600
respectively in years where I
don't think anybody would have

19
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,400
expected either of those teams
to make it.

20
00:02:10,300 --> 00:02:14,400
I mean, for real like that, the
injuries you guys had.

21
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:20,400
And you know when you tell us a
Boston's going to make it but

22
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,500
Chris sales going to pitch a
month of the Season people like

23
00:02:23,500 --> 00:02:26,800
people like nah, y'all aren't
going to do it but they made it.

24
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:31,000
What it shows you though about
baseball.

25
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,900
As if ever in every other sport,
if you draft, good players or

26
00:02:35,900 --> 00:02:38,800
get good, young players and
develop them, you will win

27
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:43,900
games.
That's what the Braves have done

28
00:02:43,900 --> 00:02:45,300
for the last few years.
Ears.

29
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,100
And if you start looking at the
socks, that's what it is there.

30
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,500
You know, when they traded
mookie and got Verdugo and

31
00:02:52,500 --> 00:02:57,100
quique, like you knew they were
good, solid players. and you

32
00:02:57,100 --> 00:03:00,300
knew between Devers and Bogaerts
and some of the kids in the pin

33
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,800
and ivaldi guys, who hit they
developed in the system or

34
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:09,800
traded when they were younger,
It clear development, that's

35
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,200
what that's why the Brazen the
Red Sox are in the ICS

36
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,600
championship series and the
Braves have such a good young

37
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,900
core and then two of those guys
go down with seasonings in the

38
00:03:19,900 --> 00:03:23,900
injuries before the All-Star
break and we completely

39
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:29,900
Patchwork that thing together
before the trade deadline and

40
00:03:29,900 --> 00:03:33,100
just kept moving.
Well, y'all are under 100 is

41
00:03:33,100 --> 00:03:34,500
beginning of August.
Y'all went on.

42
00:03:34,500 --> 00:03:38,700
A are it was it was a big day.
It was a big tear, it was a huge

43
00:03:38,700 --> 00:03:41,100
tayyar.
Well, if what we were flirting

44
00:03:41,100 --> 00:03:47,800
with, with 500, pretty much from
May until August, and then we

45
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,000
finally got over the hump.
And once we were there, we more

46
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:52,800
or less, you know, kind of
handled business.

47
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:58,000
As we closed out there had,
like, one or two Series where we

48
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,800
didn't didn't play well, but
more or less.

49
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,400
We were able to, you know, take
most of the series down the

50
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,500
stretch, swept a couple in
there.

51
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,100
There's and you sweat, sweat
sweat, the big one.

52
00:04:09,100 --> 00:04:11,200
At the end there to close it out
against the Phillies.

53
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,500
So, yeah, in 15 games over 500
many injuries.

54
00:04:14,500 --> 00:04:17,600
As you guys had is unbelievable,
man.

55
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:22,500
So we continue as we record.
If you see the head move, you

56
00:04:22,500 --> 00:04:27,100
guys will know why but not
tonight and you guys will find

57
00:04:27,100 --> 00:04:29,100
out what hundred Burger team.
Y'all play.

58
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,800
And what's your preference
Dodgers or Giants?

59
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,500
I think we match up better
against the Giants.

60
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,800
Yeah, I think so even though
Revenge would be sweet.

61
00:04:40,900 --> 00:04:43,500
It Revenge would be sweet.
I think just in terms of

62
00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:47,000
matchups and and overall top to
bottom.

63
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,000
And I just think it's a better
matchup for us but you know,

64
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:55,200
we'll see how it goes.
Absolutely, I'd love nothing

65
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,300
better to put it to the Dodgers.
So it will be it will be good

66
00:04:58,300 --> 00:05:01,900
either way, for me, either way,
either way, so Brian watching

67
00:05:01,900 --> 00:05:05,500
will Monday Night Football.
On Twitter going back and forth

68
00:05:05,500 --> 00:05:07,500
to Jon Gruden.
You make brakes.

69
00:05:08,100 --> 00:05:12,500
Yep.
And every joke went what last

70
00:05:12,500 --> 00:05:17,000
longer?
This Jian game or John grew in

71
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,000
fires awning.
If you took the John Gurdon

72
00:05:20,300 --> 00:05:22,500
resigning or getting fired, you
were right.

73
00:05:24,300 --> 00:05:29,800
You know, in years ago, company
emails, some of the crap that

74
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,100
was said, man, you just don't
say that.

75
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,000
It's just, it's just wrong.
You don't say that.

76
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,900
You definitely don't say that in
company emails that you know, I

77
00:05:37,900 --> 00:05:39,700
don't say it.
Subject do shit like this.

78
00:05:39,700 --> 00:05:45,400
Like what is wrong as it was?
And as much as you know, he, you

79
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:50,600
know, he resigned, he didn't
fight it, you know, and he's

80
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,900
getting, you know, essentially
washed away which is one of

81
00:05:54,900 --> 00:05:58,100
those sad things because people
can make mistakes, say things

82
00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:03,200
and still change and etcetera.
Etc.

83
00:06:03,700 --> 00:06:09,300
But my piece is this.
They're saying that they're they

84
00:06:09,300 --> 00:06:12,500
can't release any emails or find
any emails on the Redskins

85
00:06:12,500 --> 00:06:18,400
Investigation ID Again.
Full not especially mean, you've

86
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,600
got stuff coming out with all
that stuff that even schefter

87
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:26,000
was sending over to Bruce and
like, how, how is nothing else

88
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:30,000
coming out like that.
So it's there somebody's got it.

89
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,700
Yeah, but he's gonna be dropping
hammers because you can't wait.

90
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,900
Think about that investigation,
an investigation.

91
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:38,500
Ended.
It was it was a point made on

92
00:06:38,500 --> 00:06:42,400
the radio here in Richmond that
investigation was concluded.

93
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,800
Do you remember what it was?
Concluded Ron because the point

94
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:49,900
that is funny.
It was made July 2nd.

95
00:06:51,100 --> 00:06:54,300
July 2nd, the weekend before
July 4th.

96
00:06:54,500 --> 00:06:58,100
What happens normally Friday's
before, holidays, in most

97
00:06:58,100 --> 00:07:03,200
corporate workplaces holidays,
you leave early, leave early,

98
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,100
you're gone by lunch between,
want you to everybody's out of

99
00:07:06,100 --> 00:07:08,400
the office?
People are gone.

100
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,900
What happened Monday?
Everybody had the federal

101
00:07:12,900 --> 00:07:16,900
holiday because the fourth was
on a Sunday so they break that

102
00:07:16,900 --> 00:07:20,500
and use them.
People start talking about a

103
00:07:20,508 --> 00:07:23,200
Tuesday but by Tuesday, it's
like who gives a crap.

104
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,400
Yeah, whatever.
And now they took the Friday,

105
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,700
dump to like the complete all
they took it to ten exponential

106
00:07:30,700 --> 00:07:33,200
level.
They're unbelievable.

107
00:07:33,900 --> 00:07:35,900
Question is what additional
comes out?

108
00:07:35,900 --> 00:07:39,300
And now you're having people who
was involved in that especially

109
00:07:39,300 --> 00:07:41,600
after Jay, Gruden, who have been
there for all those years.

110
00:07:41,700 --> 00:07:43,100
Oh yeah, I was never
interviewed.

111
00:07:43,100 --> 00:07:46,200
Nobody ever talked to me.
It's like huh.

112
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,900
So I think more is going to come
out.

113
00:07:49,100 --> 00:07:51,300
Out and I tell you whoever's got
that info.

114
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,700
You can get a feeling that
they're going to start leaking

115
00:07:55,700 --> 00:07:58,800
it.
Yeah, I mean, I know, I know a

116
00:07:58,808 --> 00:08:02,200
lot of Washington football team
fans that would love nothing

117
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:07,400
more than for Snyder to have to
wave bye-bye to this franchise.

118
00:08:07,500 --> 00:08:11,200
Oh yeah.
And it would be even more more

119
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,700
Just Desserts considering some
of the shit that was happening.

120
00:08:14,700 --> 00:08:18,900
It's especially around the
early, really around the, the

121
00:08:19,100 --> 00:08:20,900
The needle labor.
Yeah.

122
00:08:20,900 --> 00:08:22,800
Well the labor situation like
there.

123
00:08:23,300 --> 00:08:25,300
They were playing a lot of
shenanigans at that point.

124
00:08:25,300 --> 00:08:28,700
Anyway, abso-freaking-lutely?
Alright, Braun.

125
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:32,299
We tell you what really grinds
my gears about polls.

126
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:36,200
What you got man?
Alabama, who's the number one

127
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:40,600
team in the country needed
within the Texas A&M?

128
00:08:41,700 --> 00:08:43,299
Texas.
A&M undefeated Braun.

129
00:08:43,799 --> 00:08:45,700
No, they were not.
What were they even ranked in

130
00:08:45,700 --> 00:08:49,300
the top 25?
No, well, the over 500.

131
00:08:49,900 --> 00:08:55,400
No, no, no, no, no, but they
lose if you didn't watch you

132
00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:59,300
into that game.
After if you could, I could

133
00:08:59,300 --> 00:09:03,000
stomach it watching the hockey
game, me and Brian jabbed, a

134
00:09:03,008 --> 00:09:05,800
couple minutes, and then I'll
watch the end of that.

135
00:09:07,100 --> 00:09:09,600
You would expect.
Normally if this was any other

136
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:14,200
conference, any other our team,
how many spots would you have

137
00:09:14,300 --> 00:09:19,700
expected them to fall losing to
a 500 team unranked?

138
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:24,700
Even though it was on the road
they did least drop to eight or

139
00:09:24,700 --> 00:09:27,700
higher.
Well they dropped a five, they

140
00:09:27,700 --> 00:09:31,800
drop for spots.
Yeah, they essentially gave them

141
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,400
the same treatment that Penn
State got ten straight, who was

142
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,900
for, who is now seven or eight.
I've got to look back at the

143
00:09:38,900 --> 00:09:44,600
polls who lost to The number
three team by a field goal.

144
00:09:46,700 --> 00:09:48,800
On the road.
Yep, as well.

145
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,300
I hate the poles.
You you hate them at the

146
00:09:54,300 --> 00:09:56,600
beginning.
I hate on for these reasons.

147
00:09:56,900 --> 00:10:01,800
When certain teams get favorable
treatment, if they lose a game.

148
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,200
I mean at this point, I don't
know if that's if this is SEC

149
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,300
buys or just Alabama buys,
that's that's coming into play.

150
00:10:09,300 --> 00:10:12,000
Here is some Bubbles and it's
ridiculous.

151
00:10:12,100 --> 00:10:17,800
And, you know, I get that
Alabama on paper is still a,

152
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,000
probably one of the two best
teams in the country.

153
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,300
I get that.
But you got, you still got to

154
00:10:23,300 --> 00:10:25,500
win the games.
You don't, you don't get to have

155
00:10:25,500 --> 00:10:30,000
favorable treatment just because
on paper, that's how it works.

156
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,400
Because football isn't played on
paper, you still got to go out

157
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:36,000
and win the The game, it's true.
You shouldn't penalize other

158
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,900
teams that are taken care of
their business, just because

159
00:10:39,300 --> 00:10:44,300
another team is top to bottom
the best roster and they've got,

160
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,500
you know, one of the best
coaches of all time.

161
00:10:46,500 --> 00:10:50,300
Like, you can't ask you can't
live off of that in the polls.

162
00:10:50,300 --> 00:10:52,700
It has to be, you know, week to
week.

163
00:10:52,700 --> 00:10:57,400
And what they actually do on the
field, it needs to be concrete,

164
00:10:57,500 --> 00:11:00,200
it doesn't need to be.
What about isms, or

165
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,100
hypothetically, hypothetically
that investing So

166
00:11:03,100 --> 00:11:06,000
hypothetically, if they lost
four games, would you still put

167
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,100
them in the playoffs?
The honest truth.

168
00:11:08,100 --> 00:11:11,600
There would be somebody on that
committee, that would say, well,

169
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,800
you know, they only lost by a
combined nine points in those

170
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:17,700
four games still there,
essentially giving them a

171
00:11:17,700 --> 00:11:19,600
mulligan.
Because they know that at some

172
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:24,000
point, they're going to have to
play Georgia, more than likely

173
00:11:26,100 --> 00:11:30,800
EF are essentially giving them a
mulligan saying, okay, well,

174
00:11:31,300 --> 00:11:33,700
here's your Mulligan.
You're gonna have to play

175
00:11:33,700 --> 00:11:36,000
Georgia at some point.
We'll figure this out at that

176
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,600
point.
It's true and it was your

177
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,500
bullshit, it's bullshit.
But you know it is what it is is

178
00:11:41,500 --> 00:11:44,500
reasons why we still stand on a
hill of we need a fucking

179
00:11:44,500 --> 00:11:48,400
playoff.
I mean, it's the reason I down

180
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:52,000
the hill because if you're going
to start seeing that losses are

181
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:57,000
irrelevant, then put more than
four teams and they're getting

182
00:11:57,100 --> 00:11:59,900
people a chance.
And if you're saying losses are

183
00:11:59,900 --> 00:12:02,000
irrelevant, then you can
potentially.

184
00:12:02,100 --> 00:12:06,500
If you're, you know, if your
bread makers have a, have a

185
00:12:06,500 --> 00:12:10,200
pseudo Bad season for them, you
know, ten wins two losses

186
00:12:10,300 --> 00:12:12,800
potentially three losses, they
can still get in.

187
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:17,300
So yeah.
And some of this Being saved

188
00:12:17,300 --> 00:12:19,800
surgery, will it goes back to
the money thing, right?

189
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:26,400
Let me it's a big deal to keep
Alabama in the In Contention.

190
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,400
It is it is they draw eyes are
like Ohio state.

191
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:37,800
They're like, you know, Oklahoma
and in a way it's multiple teams

192
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:41,100
that draw the eyes of the Casual
public.

193
00:12:41,500 --> 00:12:42,500
Yep.
Hey Brian.

194
00:12:43,300 --> 00:12:45,200
Um, but we jump in the Hokey
notes Here.

195
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,600
Big, big news.
News out of Miami.

196
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:53,000
Dear King is done for the year
shoulder injury, on top of

197
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,400
essentially to recover an ACL so
he's done, he will not be in

198
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:02,500
Coral Gables, Miami Stadium Hard
Rock Cafe at the end of November

199
00:13:02,500 --> 00:13:07,100
versus us or against any other
team but he hasn't yes.

200
00:13:07,100 --> 00:13:13,200
Contemplated coming back for his
seventh season on Sunday.

201
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:17,200
Hold on Sunday.
You said as of right now, The

202
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:21,100
only game you could see us
winning without a shadow of a

203
00:13:21,108 --> 00:13:25,300
doubt was do, does it change
anything with them losing their

204
00:13:25,300 --> 00:13:28,800
King, especially the way they
look a few weeks ago?

205
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,000
I mean I still put it probably
in a toss-up category but I

206
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:36,900
think it's one that we are, it's
a favorable one.

207
00:13:38,700 --> 00:13:41,800
You know, at the beginning of
the season I probably had that

208
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:48,900
as a probable loss seeing how
they looked In general, I was

209
00:13:48,900 --> 00:13:51,900
already kind of leaning towards
full on toss-up.

210
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:56,100
I'd probably put that in the
toss up with us as being the

211
00:13:56,100 --> 00:14:00,900
slight favorite there.
Now, kind of in the same

212
00:14:00,900 --> 00:14:05,700
ballpark is maybe the Georgia
Tech matchup.

213
00:14:05,700 --> 00:14:10,400
Maybe the Syracuse matchup kind
of in that same ballpark at this

214
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:16,800
point and it's because Derek
King kind of made that ship go.

215
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,800
It on at least on the offensive
side of the ball and their

216
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,000
defense hasn't quite played to
the level.

217
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,800
That we were expecting them to
play this year and coupling that

218
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,200
with not having Derek King on
that offense, you know, we're

219
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,800
starting to see things that we
were talking about going into

220
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,900
last year again, right?
With that offensive line and

221
00:14:33,900 --> 00:14:36,200
some of the other struggles that
they were having so.

222
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:41,400
Well their defense was expected
to be the reason they were so

223
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,400
highly ranked, right?
They were returning so many

224
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,800
guys, I mean they lost some Edge
presents and Philip.

225
00:14:46,900 --> 00:14:50,000
Oops and Roche, but they still
had a couple guys behind them.

226
00:14:50,700 --> 00:14:53,700
The defense look has looked
like, and I've watched pork to

227
00:14:53,700 --> 00:14:57,800
the Alabama, the App State.
I watch part of the UVA.

228
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,200
I did, I miss the Michigan State
game.

229
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,500
That was they the day?
They played that game was just

230
00:15:01,500 --> 00:15:04,300
bad time and I couldn't see any
of it, but it look like that

231
00:15:04,300 --> 00:15:07,300
defense gets on the field and
their expectation is 0 where the

232
00:15:07,308 --> 00:15:11,200
Miami defense.
And then they get pumped into

233
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:16,400
face and it's like, so, like,
what does that matter to us?

234
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,900
We don't care if you're the
Miami defense.

235
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,600
Yeah.
And without them, having that

236
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:25,000
Elite pass rush this year, I
mean, you're starting to see.

237
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,800
They've got an elite players on
the back end, but kind of

238
00:15:28,808 --> 00:15:31,200
remember the one of the big
questions we asked before the

239
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,600
season is, you know, are they
going to be able to generate

240
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,400
enough pressure for them to
maximize Talent, they have on

241
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:42,900
the back end and Now the answer
has been no, so far them, losing

242
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:48,600
truly three top top line Edge
Rogers, I know one didn't play

243
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:54,500
last year for them, but losing
three pass rushers off that

244
00:15:54,500 --> 00:15:56,500
defense.
I mean, that's a big deal.

245
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,100
All of those guys are NFL
caliber players, all of our own

246
00:16:01,100 --> 00:16:02,700
rotten.
Yeah.

247
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,700
All three of them.
So exactly.

248
00:16:04,700 --> 00:16:08,100
So, you know, that that that's,
that's been a big deal for them

249
00:16:08,100 --> 00:16:11,700
and they haven't really found
Found a footing where they can,

250
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:15,200
you know, put four quarters
together on either side of the

251
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,300
ball and some of that goes back
to Derek Kings injury and some

252
00:16:18,300 --> 00:16:20,600
of that goes back to that
defense just not being what it

253
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:24,600
was last year.
Exactly, and the honest truth

254
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:30,200
is, For Manny Diaz.
Obviously we've restored your

255
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,500
coming out about the president
of the University doesn't care

256
00:16:32,500 --> 00:16:36,600
about football.
The ad does we discussed it

257
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,500
amongst ourselves with other
people?

258
00:16:38,900 --> 00:16:41,500
They have the boosters to keep
their program of floating on

259
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,200
being in pain, regardless at the
school says they're not trying

260
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:51,000
to give them anything.
But at what point this year Does

261
00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,900
does a call or is it calm a
like, he's gone.

262
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,600
Go find someone else, man.
He's going.

263
00:16:59,300 --> 00:17:02,100
Yeah, and I think because, you
know, there's two things at play

264
00:17:02,100 --> 00:17:05,500
here.
So number one, you know, they

265
00:17:05,500 --> 00:17:08,099
don't necessarily have the
support from the University at

266
00:17:08,099 --> 00:17:11,800
large, but also because of that
they are in because they're

267
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:16,200
private institution, they are
primarily, you know, so much of

268
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:20,599
the funds that are coming in
have always been That of the

269
00:17:20,599 --> 00:17:23,400
private nature.
So they can make moves like that

270
00:17:23,599 --> 00:17:29,300
on that side without necessarily
having to seek the budget Ariel

271
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,900
approval of the of the
University of the same way that

272
00:17:33,900 --> 00:17:39,200
a public institution would.
So I can see them going after.

273
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,700
Manny Diaz.
I don't necessarily think that

274
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:47,700
what he's dealing with this year
is completely falling at his

275
00:17:47,700 --> 00:17:49,700
feet.
But it's another example.

276
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:55,500
'Well of you can't keep stacking
decent recruiting classes.

277
00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:01,100
You can't be a team in Florida
and and continue to put out a

278
00:18:01,100 --> 00:18:04,700
mediocre product every year.
Absolutely, absolutely.

279
00:18:05,300 --> 00:18:06,700
I'm Brian.
Let's flip it over to the hook

280
00:18:06,700 --> 00:18:08,400
you notes.
Will the press conference will

281
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,800
build things said by coach
Fuente but let's start with

282
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,100
this.
Me and me and Brian, got

283
00:18:15,100 --> 00:18:18,100
together and watch this for a
few minutes.

284
00:18:18,300 --> 00:18:21,700
We watch the whole thing.
Yeah, it was a solid 30, 35

285
00:18:21,700 --> 00:18:27,600
minutes, watched it in the first
two minutes were watching it in.

286
00:18:27,700 --> 00:18:31,400
Was it me or you?
Like, I was like, he's cracking

287
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,000
his knuckles and playing with
his wedding ring?

288
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:36,700
He does not want to be up there.
His body language and majority

289
00:18:36,700 --> 00:18:39,600
that press conference.
With the exception of what we're

290
00:18:39,608 --> 00:18:42,000
going to talk about the end with
the targeting, he was

291
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:46,900
uncomfortable it Look terrible,
you know, he even had a few

292
00:18:46,900 --> 00:18:50,300
Clips with Mike Missoula.
Kyle, you know, I know you gotta

293
00:18:50,300 --> 00:18:54,800
ask it well you know it at least
act you don't have to say that

294
00:18:54,800 --> 00:19:00,500
like he looks so bad up there.
And you know it's it's a it's

295
00:19:00,500 --> 00:19:04,500
kind of a could self-portrait to
say well this is where we are.

296
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,600
You know, it's a lot of
uncomfortableness.

297
00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,700
It's a lot of cracking knuckles,
it's playing with writing rings

298
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,300
and for any of you guys who are
married, you know, the you know,

299
00:19:14,900 --> 00:19:19,800
I do it watching games, you
know, movies that I haven't seen

300
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,000
that are suspenseful.
I'm playing with my ring.

301
00:19:22,500 --> 00:19:27,700
It's just a common thing.
So as soon as you saw that is

302
00:19:27,700 --> 00:19:31,600
like he ain't in the best
headspace as of this moment.

303
00:19:34,100 --> 00:19:39,200
Yeah, I mean just looked like he
was You fidgeting a lot and I

304
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:45,400
think it was just, I'd like to
be other places than here and I

305
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,500
can I can understand that.
I mean yes.

306
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:53,600
And you know, I think one of the
things that I mean we can we can

307
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,700
start.
I know he didn't get to this

308
00:19:56,700 --> 00:19:59,300
right away.
But you know, when we talk about

309
00:19:59,300 --> 00:20:04,300
the decisions to go for two and
not go for two, you know?

310
00:20:04,300 --> 00:20:08,800
He he definitely took some
ownership of that choice even

311
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:14,700
though he said, you know, from a
His.

312
00:20:14,700 --> 00:20:17,900
He said his way of going about
those things is probably more

313
00:20:17,900 --> 00:20:24,600
traditional than what the
statisticians would probably

314
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,900
advise.
Yeah.

315
00:20:27,700 --> 00:20:31,500
In the thing was, you know, if
you go by the book, the book

316
00:20:31,500 --> 00:20:35,200
said, you don't go to go for two
when we went for two.

317
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,200
And then if you went for to,
there you go for two.

318
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,700
Again when you score later the
later, right?

319
00:20:42,300 --> 00:20:44,500
Yeah, you go for two.
It either spot.

320
00:20:44,500 --> 00:20:49,600
Because if you get both well, if
you get one, not the other,

321
00:20:51,500 --> 00:20:56,400
essentially you're up more than
eight and it's a two score game

322
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,700
and again, well, it doesn't
necessarily help you.

323
00:20:58,700 --> 00:21:02,600
I B8 does force a, you have to
get a tattoo, but at the other

324
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,000
type of CO2, but at the same
time, if you're up seven,

325
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,300
they're not going for to unless,
you know, they're completely

326
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:14,200
going full on.
What it does.

327
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,400
Well, there you said it aloud to
me after he talked about it,

328
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:25,900
what it does is if you get that
too and you get to nine one way

329
00:21:25,900 --> 00:21:27,500
or the other.
Yep.

330
00:21:28,100 --> 00:21:31,500
Especially after we were up
seven and go up.

331
00:21:31,500 --> 00:21:34,500
Eight, you go.
For two, is you sit there and

332
00:21:34,500 --> 00:21:38,700
say, if we go for two here and
we get to 9, even if they go

333
00:21:38,700 --> 00:21:41,600
score and they get the two point
conversion, which they don't

334
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,000
have to say, they'll probably
still just kick the one who

335
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:48,300
probably kick it.
But at that point in time, You

336
00:21:48,300 --> 00:21:52,000
can essentially run the ball
three times, even though they

337
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:56,300
didn't use their timeouts, you
still force a timeout.

338
00:21:56,500 --> 00:21:58,900
You get, you get rid of their
timeouts unless they're going to

339
00:21:58,900 --> 00:22:01,200
hold them.
Well, it's a different set of

340
00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:02,800
play calls, right?
It's a different set of play

341
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,100
calls, you're not trying to move
the ball into field goal range.

342
00:22:05,100 --> 00:22:07,600
You're trying to run out the
clock.

343
00:22:07,700 --> 00:22:11,600
That's a completely separate
part of the place sheet that

344
00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,400
you're looking at.
In the other piece mean, you

345
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,800
talked about this how they
attack going downfield to get

346
00:22:17,900 --> 00:22:20,500
The field goal middle of the
field.

347
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,400
Why he had three timeouts in his
back pocket?

348
00:22:23,500 --> 00:22:28,200
If somebody got tackled short
burn it By attacking it.

349
00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:34,300
If we had, if we had been up
nine and we're run we run and we

350
00:22:34,300 --> 00:22:37,200
run and we only take like 12
seconds off the clock, they

351
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:38,600
burn.
All three of their timeouts.

352
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:44,800
Well, now playing the middle of
the field is risque It's risky,

353
00:22:45,100 --> 00:22:48,400
you get tackled short even if
you get tackled and get the gun

354
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:49,800
in the game.
If you send some my way down

355
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,200
field, we talked about a Sunday.
Well, now you got to bring

356
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,200
everybody back up in the clocks
kicking, kicking kicking.

357
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:59,700
So more or less, you're going to
have to go outside the numbers

358
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,700
and it makes it more difficult
to move down feel, but we makes

359
00:23:03,700 --> 00:23:06,200
it more difficult to move down
field and it plays to the

360
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,300
strengths of our secondary as
well.

361
00:23:09,300 --> 00:23:11,200
Yep.
They're throwing into the meat

362
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:15,100
of what of what our secondary is
versus into the, the middle of

363
00:23:15,100 --> 00:23:18,200
the defense where we're
probably, that's probably the

364
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,900
weaker area of our defenses in
the middle, right?

365
00:23:20,900 --> 00:23:23,400
So.
Oh yeah, it's absolutely, it

366
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:27,900
changes.
The dynamic of both, the of that

367
00:23:27,900 --> 00:23:30,500
last drive for them and, and our
last Drive.

368
00:23:31,100 --> 00:23:32,000
Yeah.
Absolutely.

369
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,900
So let's, let's talk about this.
Do just something he did talk

370
00:23:35,900 --> 00:23:40,500
about, he talked about execution
and we Heard it before and you

371
00:23:40,500 --> 00:23:42,600
just kind of went into a rant,
do you?

372
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:44,300
I didn't have to ask you to
pause it.

373
00:23:44,300 --> 00:23:47,000
You pause it.
And went Yeah.

374
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:52,100
So I mean the the big thing that
I always Harper on is that one

375
00:23:52,100 --> 00:23:56,600
off games execution, can be
placed at the feet of players

376
00:23:57,500 --> 00:24:00,600
players don't always go out and
have a have to have the best

377
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:06,400
games in terms of execution
habitual, acts of execution,

378
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,200
errors are 100% on the coaching
staff.

379
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:14,900
If you are consistently going
out there and not executing

380
00:24:14,900 --> 00:24:18,700
you've done one of three things,
Things wrong you didn't recruit

381
00:24:18,700 --> 00:24:23,200
the right players or you didn't
prepare them or there is

382
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,700
something going on in your
scheme and you're not putting

383
00:24:25,700 --> 00:24:28,400
them in a good position to make
those plays.

384
00:24:29,700 --> 00:24:33,900
Yeah, and over this time as many
times we've heard execution,

385
00:24:34,500 --> 00:24:37,800
it's finally, it's like it's on
y'all don't don't don't try to

386
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:42,400
put on the players, its on you
you should take the ownership

387
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,600
for it now.
Can I say this problem?

388
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,900
Would you be more accepting of
execution type stuff?

389
00:24:51,900 --> 00:24:56,600
If things have been changed,
Yes.

390
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,200
Only because you're at that
point, we'd be talking about a

391
00:24:59,208 --> 00:25:02,100
new system, right?
We'd be talking about still kind

392
00:25:02,100 --> 00:25:05,300
of playing into things,
potentially not having the right

393
00:25:05,300 --> 00:25:07,900
Personnel on campus to run
things the way you want to.

394
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,600
And that's that's thinking of
bringing in a new offensive

395
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,500
coordinator.
Not Fuente taking over the play

396
00:25:13,500 --> 00:25:14,800
calling.
Yeah, that's not that.

397
00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:16,400
If went a mistake, you know the
play calling.

398
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,400
Then those excuses would go out
of the window and so they would

399
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,700
go out the window but it's that
whole pieces.

400
00:25:21,700 --> 00:25:25,400
Why do you see guys when they
into a four or five year deal?

401
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,400
And this isn't all lines of
football.

402
00:25:29,900 --> 00:25:32,600
You see them.
If things aren't clicking pretty

403
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,400
quick especially year three and
four.

404
00:25:35,900 --> 00:25:40,200
That's when I you've got to go.
You have to leave.

405
00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:44,000
We aren't executing like I can
again you made the point that we

406
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:48,700
can deal with Gamers here and
they're consistently on.

407
00:25:48,700 --> 00:25:55,200
Executing is not good at all.
So yeah, and he had the chance,

408
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,800
he's had the chance multiple And
she didn't do it.

409
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:02,700
So, again, everything is
continuously falling on him, you

410
00:26:02,700 --> 00:26:07,600
know, I told you a few weeks
ago, I'm, I'll still throw bread

411
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,800
when he got to go onto the bus
all throwing, but it's often

412
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:15,400
went in there, it's all on him.
So he's got an ankle decisions

413
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,900
and he's made the bed at this
point, right?

414
00:26:17,900 --> 00:26:20,800
Like State.
Yeah, at this point, corn is who

415
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,500
he is.
There's no going back on that.

416
00:26:24,700 --> 00:26:27,800
We're just have to deal with the
Consequences of that and those

417
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:32,000
consequences fallback, if went a
we did get some other news

418
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,600
though.
So yeah, you know, we were

419
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,600
talking about Braxton Burmeister
and whether he'd be available

420
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:41,500
and turns out, he's been 100%
full go at practice this week so

421
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,100
we'll go steady.
Surprise said he felt good in

422
00:26:44,108 --> 00:26:48,200
the interview today.
So I'm going to assume Brown

423
00:26:48,700 --> 00:26:55,400
probably probably nothing muscle
wise probably know separated

424
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,100
shoulder.
Probably not even a deep bruise.

425
00:26:59,500 --> 00:27:04,400
Stinger, maybe bone bruise would
be the most severe, you know,

426
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:08,200
we'll never know because yeah, I
don't talk about it.

427
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,700
We have be Beyond here in six
months.

428
00:27:11,700 --> 00:27:16,600
We'll find out exactly the story
want to try to mark your

429
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:20,500
calendars guys.
We did find out that kind of

430
00:27:20,500 --> 00:27:23,100
blown work is at least going to
be out for a while.

431
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,200
He did leave open the
opportunity for him to

432
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:30,200
potentially return Towards the
end of the season but depending

433
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:35,700
on what that injury was, he did
say it was a leg injury that

434
00:27:35,700 --> 00:27:39,500
doesn't look good for him.
I'm guessing it could

435
00:27:39,500 --> 00:27:43,900
potentially, could have been
like a bad sprain versus some

436
00:27:43,900 --> 00:27:46,100
sort of actual tear in the knee
because it looked like it was a

437
00:27:46,108 --> 00:27:50,500
neat, the knee area.
So it could be some sort of MCL

438
00:27:50,500 --> 00:27:53,100
sprain or something like that.
Those are usually like six to

439
00:27:53,100 --> 00:27:54,900
eight-week injuries.
Yeah.

440
00:27:54,900 --> 00:27:59,900
Something something significant.
A severe sprain of those would

441
00:27:59,900 --> 00:28:04,000
definitely even an LCL, they'd
be out for quite some time.

442
00:28:04,300 --> 00:28:08,000
Usually, it's the MCL.
What really sucks is the way

443
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:13,300
they used him Saturday, say what
you will, you know, The

444
00:28:13,300 --> 00:28:17,500
incorrect use of a more terrible
when they used incorrectly

445
00:28:17,900 --> 00:28:21,600
multiple times, it was an
addition to the offense that was

446
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:26,500
helpful and we never it, never
really got to truly see what

447
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,300
Connor the H back with Braxton
on the field could have looked

448
00:28:31,300 --> 00:28:34,200
like to, because that could have
that could have created some

449
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,300
interesting matchups against a
defense.

450
00:28:36,300 --> 00:28:38,600
So I was a little sad.
We didn't get to see that as

451
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,900
well.
So we'll see how that continues

452
00:28:41,900 --> 00:28:44,100
forward.
I guess the other thing we

453
00:28:44,100 --> 00:28:51,500
talked about when they talked
about was Dax with the targeting

454
00:28:51,500 --> 00:28:55,400
penalty, going to be out the
first half of pit this week, as

455
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,800
a result of it being in the
second half asleep, towards the

456
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:02,700
end of the game and this case so
looks like Dean and Keyshawn are

457
00:29:02,700 --> 00:29:06,100
going to get a good amount of
play this week.

458
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,900
Look for look for probably
Keyshawn to get get a good

459
00:29:08,900 --> 00:29:12,300
amount of play.
Although you know I'll talk

460
00:29:12,300 --> 00:29:15,900
about a little It now this is a
great opportunity to especially

461
00:29:15,900 --> 00:29:20,700
with the way pit likes to play
essentially writing that true

462
00:29:20,700 --> 00:29:22,900
nickel for the majority of the
game.

463
00:29:23,700 --> 00:29:26,900
Yeah, like we probably should
have did in that last vs.

464
00:29:26,900 --> 00:29:29,900
Notre Dame or the last two
series and they had a pass, but

465
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:33,200
Jay and we love you.
But you made a bad mistake.

466
00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:37,300
Don't keep doing it Keshawn.
They said it has been getting

467
00:29:37,300 --> 00:29:42,700
the primary ones this week, John
has been with the system.

468
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,300
Mmm, a little longer than Dean,
he's a little bit older or more

469
00:29:45,300 --> 00:29:52,900
experienced in, you know, it's
still tough because middle

470
00:29:52,900 --> 00:29:56,400
linebacker brother coming and
colder with a week of prep.

471
00:29:56,700 --> 00:30:00,200
Has to make all the calls has to
put everybody in position.

472
00:30:01,700 --> 00:30:04,800
And that's sort of the that's
the part that we miss the most

473
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:08,000
on Dax even in those last few
drives.

474
00:30:08,100 --> 00:30:11,200
You know, was getting people
lined up, right?

475
00:30:11,300 --> 00:30:14,600
You know, the middle path.
Ass that was the big Gainer.

476
00:30:15,100 --> 00:30:19,500
You know, argue all you want up
and down that could actually

477
00:30:19,500 --> 00:30:22,900
covered a wide receiver.
If taxes in the game, I don't

478
00:30:22,900 --> 00:30:27,400
think they call that play.
I don't, because if the way I

479
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:31,200
saw it is if you saw the Tisdale
play Ferguson was hesitant to

480
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:38,100
come up and help clean up that
mess and then, The very next

481
00:30:38,100 --> 00:30:42,900
play, they attacked it.
So and I think, you know, it's

482
00:30:42,900 --> 00:30:46,000
more of a, you know, you smell
blood in the water type thing,

483
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:50,900
then it was necessarily Dax is a
head and shoulders above Dina

484
00:30:50,900 --> 00:30:54,500
terms of coverage like that's
not what I'm talking about here

485
00:30:54,500 --> 00:30:57,300
but you got a cold player coming
off the bench.

486
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,700
Most most coordinators attack
the cold player because

487
00:31:01,700 --> 00:31:05,600
regardless of their ability they
might be playing either too

488
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,100
hesitant or too loose.
And you can take advantage of

489
00:31:08,100 --> 00:31:09,900
that.
It's 100% man.

490
00:31:10,300 --> 00:31:14,000
All right, Ron, the targeting
call, it was one of those Highly

491
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,200
Questionable calls actually,
both bargaining was Saturday

492
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,700
night and he wasn't even the one
that worked in our favor and

493
00:31:20,700 --> 00:31:23,800
granted.
I think the the time it happened

494
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,800
and the player, it happened to
definitely hurt us.

495
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:31,200
A whole lot more than it hurt,
Notre, Dame, but you did it.

496
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:35,400
Did both of them were were
questionable in terms of malice.

497
00:31:35,500 --> 00:31:38,600
Yes, letter.
Letter of A law of those were

498
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,300
targeting penalties.
Yes.

499
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:48,100
But neither of them were
forceful or intentional contact

500
00:31:48,100 --> 00:31:50,100
to the head and neck area.
No it wasn't.

501
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,500
And it's and it's something that
I told you Brian not long after

502
00:31:53,500 --> 00:31:58,200
it happened, something like this
needs to happen to the right

503
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:03,700
team and on the right stage
against the right opponent,

504
00:32:03,900 --> 00:32:06,600
that's how the change is going
to happen, that's how it's gonna

505
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:08,900
happen.
It's got It's going to be to me,

506
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:13,400
when I say, right opponent,
let's say this year in the

507
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:21,700
playoffs Georgia plays Michigan.
Or you know, someone else and

508
00:32:21,700 --> 00:32:26,700
it's a tight game late in its
third and its second and goal.

509
00:32:26,900 --> 00:32:28,700
The guys going to the corner of
the guy.

510
00:32:29,300 --> 00:32:32,700
Does a good football player but
it's Target and he's out top

511
00:32:32,700 --> 00:32:35,300
linebacker.
The other team punches it in

512
00:32:35,300 --> 00:32:36,300
Beach.
Georgia.

513
00:32:36,300 --> 00:32:40,300
Georgia is not in the final.
That's when things will happen.

514
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:47,100
But during the conversation with
went day, he met you know he

515
00:32:47,100 --> 00:32:50,900
made the point about how coaches
and stuff had been discussing

516
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:55,000
that there should be a targeting
one and a targeting too much

517
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:58,000
like the flagrant one inflate
your to him basketball and

518
00:32:58,000 --> 00:32:59,900
listening to that.
He got very comfortable.

519
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,400
The body language means when he
was talking that it very

520
00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:06,000
comfortable in it and he made
some really great points.

521
00:33:08,900 --> 00:33:12,700
Yeah, and I'm actually 100% with
this because I'll me too.

522
00:33:12,700 --> 00:33:16,200
I have no problem with any any
sort of contact to the head neck

523
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:17,500
area.
Flag it.

524
00:33:17,500 --> 00:33:20,700
That's fine.
Yes, you know because you still

525
00:33:20,700 --> 00:33:23,800
want to try to keep that out of
the game as much as you can.

526
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:30,600
But penalizing a player that is
not purposefully and forcefully

527
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:36,400
initiating that contact it needs
to just stick with the flagrant.

528
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,800
One, keep that player in the
game or even if you're going to

529
00:33:39,800 --> 00:33:43,000
do.
Essentially you get a flagrant 2

530
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,300
or 2.
Flagrant ones in a game equals a

531
00:33:45,300 --> 00:33:47,700
flagrant two.
Yes that's the way it should be.

532
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,000
That's the way it honestly
should be.

533
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,500
You know for one day said he
felt like they've talked to this

534
00:33:53,500 --> 00:33:57,300
at ACF afca coaches with
officials and it's just they

535
00:33:57,300 --> 00:34:01,400
like feel like it just goes into
space and he made the best point

536
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:05,400
he made whether you love or hate
the guy, it's all your decision.

537
00:34:06,300 --> 00:34:09,199
He says the reason it's not
happening so quick, as nobody

538
00:34:09,199 --> 00:34:12,100
wants to be seen as going
backwards against player safety.

539
00:34:13,300 --> 00:34:16,900
And and that's the thing that
you have to essentially sell to

540
00:34:16,900 --> 00:34:20,500
the officials and the presidents
of it's not going backwards,

541
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:28,500
it's staying status quo but it
actually not being negative

542
00:34:28,500 --> 00:34:32,500
towards just an incidental play
in that and you're not you're

543
00:34:32,500 --> 00:34:36,600
not just hurting a team either,
you know, you're hurting Players

544
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,400
stock.
I mean, there's a lot of things

545
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:41,900
that that you're hurting here,
especially, if you know that

546
00:34:41,900 --> 00:34:45,100
player is playing on a big stage
at a big, big moment.

547
00:34:45,300 --> 00:34:50,199
And all of a sudden, like, if a
player is pushing for, you know,

548
00:34:50,199 --> 00:34:53,500
borderline first line draft
first-round draft status, and

549
00:34:53,500 --> 00:34:56,100
they're playing in college
football, playoff and they're

550
00:34:56,100 --> 00:34:57,800
gone, the fifth play of the
game.

551
00:34:58,900 --> 00:35:01,700
I mean, that's high quality game
tape that they know, they don't

552
00:35:01,700 --> 00:35:05,000
have, they can't put on their
resume is at the next level.

553
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,000
That's a Big deal.
And if that ends up costing

554
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,500
their team a game, they don't
get a chance to put that out

555
00:35:10,500 --> 00:35:14,400
there for the next game.
So there's real world

556
00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:19,100
ramifications for the player
itself, not just the team and it

557
00:35:19,100 --> 00:35:21,100
looks like that the main
punishment here is that they

558
00:35:21,100 --> 00:35:24,000
want to okay, well the team gets
punished for a players choices

559
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:30,600
here and this that and the third
and, you know, we want players

560
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,400
to be safe and play the game as
safely as possible, but at the

561
00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:35,900
same time and this was kind of
emphasized.

562
00:35:36,100 --> 00:35:40,100
And this has always been my
thought on anything is that you

563
00:35:40,100 --> 00:35:42,800
know, doing the right thing is
always better than doing.

564
00:35:43,500 --> 00:35:46,900
You know whatever the flavor of
the week is and that's the

565
00:35:46,908 --> 00:35:50,900
flavor of the week now is the
targeting injection and you

566
00:35:50,900 --> 00:35:59,400
know, I wanted to change quicker
than anyone because you know Can

567
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:03,300
we just say it?
Just say it that penalty has

568
00:36:03,300 --> 00:36:08,600
caused two games against Notre
Dame, two games, Waller's

569
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:12,500
playing in nineteen, don't think
they drive the field on that

570
00:36:12,500 --> 00:36:17,000
last drive and win, and I'll say
this, it dax's on the field for

571
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:21,200
that entire Drive.
I think what happens is probably

572
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:25,300
it's not as a quick a drive as
it was because a they gained 40

573
00:36:25,300 --> 00:36:31,100
yards, 15 off taxes penalty and
40 off attacking Ferguson They

574
00:36:31,100 --> 00:36:35,100
were at the 35-yard line or 30
yard line when that play

575
00:36:35,100 --> 00:36:38,600
happened.
Yeah, you do the math, that gets

576
00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:42,500
them to the 45.
You take the 25 yard there in

577
00:36:42,500 --> 00:36:47,800
Red Zone pretty quick because of
that one play.

578
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:52,600
And again I think if it's a vice
versa play and it affects Notre

579
00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:54,900
Dame.
Maybe this was the time it

580
00:36:54,900 --> 00:36:55,900
happened.
So.

581
00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,000
Well, guys, what we're not
saying is that that necessarily,

582
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,100
you know, Resulted in Notre,
Dame winning the game but it

583
00:37:03,100 --> 00:37:05,900
certainly was one of the factors
that played a role in that.

584
00:37:06,300 --> 00:37:08,900
Absolutely absolutely.
Alright.

585
00:37:08,900 --> 00:37:12,500
So before we get into knowing
the enemy, the Pitt Panthers, we

586
00:37:12,500 --> 00:37:15,900

Now back to the episode All

595
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,500
right, so let's look at the Pitt
Panthers offense Prime.

596
00:37:46,500 --> 00:37:48,600
Start out with first of all
something.

597
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:52,700
I thought I'd never see Pitt,
Panthers leading the country in

598
00:37:52,700 --> 00:37:59,200
scoring at 52 points of game
forth and total offense, it, you

599
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:06,000
know, 455 yards a game, really
good red zone offense, you know,

600
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:11,100
scored 25 touchdowns out of 32
trips down there again.

601
00:38:11,100 --> 00:38:16,400
Another highly ranked And if I
told you all that and I told you

602
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:20,600
the first thing on, this is the
quarterback has had the same

603
00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:23,000
offensive coordinator for three
seasons.

604
00:38:23,500 --> 00:38:27,500
Same people teaching the things
for three season and it's making

605
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:34,900
Jenny F and picket a potential
has been Contender brand 3 star.

606
00:38:36,500 --> 00:38:45,300
You know it's just it's it's
1730 yards. 19 touchdowns one

607
00:38:45,300 --> 00:38:50,200
pick 72, the not only the best
numbers of his career.

608
00:38:50,500 --> 00:38:53,300
I mean it's just it's Leaps and
Bounds above it.

609
00:38:53,300 --> 00:38:57,400
And I know in reality, he really
should be on an NFL roster right

610
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,300
now because his Last year should
have been his last year last

611
00:39:00,300 --> 00:39:03,700
year.
Say that five times fast, but

612
00:39:03,700 --> 00:39:07,400
he's here Braun.
What's changing is game from

613
00:39:07,700 --> 00:39:10,100
even last year, when he did,
okay?

614
00:39:11,900 --> 00:39:14,800
The big thing that I'm seeing is
that it looks like the talent

615
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:20,200
around him has really come into
their own a little bit more, and

616
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:25,000
he's doing a really good job of
Distributing the ball to a lot

617
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,700
of different players in that
offense and going These

618
00:39:28,700 --> 00:39:31,100
progressions a little bit
quicker than he's gone through

619
00:39:31,100 --> 00:39:34,300
them in his in his history.
So far.

620
00:39:34,300 --> 00:39:35,700
He said, he looks like he's
working through his

621
00:39:35,700 --> 00:39:39,900
progressions, a lot faster.
Getting the ball to the open man

622
00:39:39,900 --> 00:39:44,100
within the the framework of the
play a lot better than he has in

623
00:39:44,100 --> 00:39:46,900
previous years.
I mean and we've seen, I mean,

624
00:39:46,900 --> 00:39:49,500
obviously everyone listen to
this those who Kenny F and pick

625
00:39:49,500 --> 00:39:55,100
it is and yes, we always say F
and our fucking, I mean, it's

626
00:39:55,100 --> 00:39:58,200
literally it's what we don't
really.

627
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,700
Not necessarily the animosity
isn't so much directed at him,

628
00:40:01,700 --> 00:40:03,900
but the fact that he's the
quarterback for Pitt and our

629
00:40:03,900 --> 00:40:07,800
doozy and the whole shebang,
he's Kenny fucking picket.

630
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,000
But I mean we know what he
brings to the table.

631
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:16,100
He's got good athleticism for
four primary throw first

632
00:40:16,100 --> 00:40:20,100
quarterback.
Probably even a little bit of a

633
00:40:20,107 --> 00:40:26,900
step up, even from Sam howl at
the athleticism standpoint does

634
00:40:26,900 --> 00:40:30,400
a really good job on those.
Loud as he keeps his eyes

635
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,100
downfield but he knows he has a
really good feel of when he

636
00:40:33,107 --> 00:40:36,200
needs to kind of Turn It Up
field and just get what he can.

637
00:40:36,900 --> 00:40:40,400
And like I said, he's been
delivering the ball to a lot of

638
00:40:40,408 --> 00:40:43,100
different receivers and that's
really kind of meant that you

639
00:40:43,100 --> 00:40:48,800
can't key on specific players
down by down as much and I think

640
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,100
that's really helped him kind of
move forward, right.

641
00:40:52,100 --> 00:40:54,900
Let me ask this Prime, you
talked about, he's going through

642
00:40:54,900 --> 00:40:58,400
his progressions quicker, being
with the same OCC.

643
00:40:58,500 --> 00:41:04,100
Same system.
Same guy. how easy is that for

644
00:41:04,100 --> 00:41:06,700
an OC to come in here and start
taking things out of the

645
00:41:06,700 --> 00:41:12,300
Playbook and say, essentially
start changing the the the the

646
00:41:14,900 --> 00:41:19,400
The wide receiver chart like
okay we're not running this in

647
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,900
this combo anymore.
Kenny can't read it but he can

648
00:41:21,900 --> 00:41:26,900
read this and this great he can
read a smash you know Smash book

649
00:41:26,900 --> 00:41:28,200
route, great.
We're going to throw that in

650
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:32,300
this set so it's been the same
guy in his ear the whole time.

651
00:41:33,700 --> 00:41:36,000
Why?
Same play, same concept, same

652
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,700
looks not rotating cast of
characters.

653
00:41:38,900 --> 00:41:40,700
Yeah.
Well so, you've been to their

654
00:41:40,700 --> 00:41:42,200
little bit.
So, one thing, the coordinator

655
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,200
has a good feel what Kenny is
comfortable with in terms of

656
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:49,700
Route combinations Kenny's
guide, more more comfortable

657
00:41:49,700 --> 00:41:52,300
overall with all of them and
because he is a veteran

658
00:41:52,300 --> 00:41:55,600
quarterback, this point, what he
is, working it on in the

659
00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,900
offseason is all up here and
timing.

660
00:41:59,300 --> 00:42:01,600
That's it.
He knows the system, right?

661
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:02,900
Yeah.
He doesn't have to work on that.

662
00:42:02,900 --> 00:42:06,900
He's Working on this, how to get
through it faster and the timing

663
00:42:06,900 --> 00:42:09,400
with those receivers in the, the
other thing that he's benefiting

664
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,100
from, is that most of these guys
are coming back from last year?

665
00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:16,400
Oh, absolutely throwing to yeah.
So, he already had some comfort

666
00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,100
with them.
He's working on more comfort,

667
00:42:18,100 --> 00:42:20,500
and it's just looked a lot
smoother this year.

668
00:42:20,900 --> 00:42:22,100
All right, let's talk about
those guys.

669
00:42:22,100 --> 00:42:25,900
Let's talk about to see your Mac
to Star when he came out went to

670
00:42:25,900 --> 00:42:31,700
Indiana at first transferred,
and December of 1704, Over to

671
00:42:31,700 --> 00:42:33,700
pit.
So essentially he's been there

672
00:42:33,700 --> 00:42:35,400
three.
This is his fourth season with

673
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:38,400
picot 62. 190.
Interesting place.

674
00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,200
He played High School football
played in be kny plated

675
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:45,200
Brooklyn.
Yeah you don't see many guys at

676
00:42:45,207 --> 00:42:51,100
a D1 level are real climate.
Yeah. 16 catches for 304 yards

677
00:42:51,100 --> 00:42:55,500
for two touchdowns averaging,
you know, 19 perception.

678
00:42:55,900 --> 00:42:59,500
And I tell you Brian his, he's
had to 100 plus games and in

679
00:42:59,500 --> 00:43:04,200
both those games I was at right
at 25 yards per reception.

680
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:08,600
So I got a feeling you're about
to say speed Yeah, he's got,

681
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,100
he's got good speed.
He's there, deep threat.

682
00:43:11,100 --> 00:43:15,000
They also run him a lot on those
kind of deep comeback routes

683
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,800
where he can catch the ball and
kind of turn up field and then

684
00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:22,900
use that as lettuce ISM in the
open field and they throw also a

685
00:43:22,908 --> 00:43:26,400
lot of Fades and digs over the
middle of the field where he can

686
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,700
really kind of plant his foot
turn and then kind of use that

687
00:43:29,700 --> 00:43:33,800
acceleration across the field to
get open and make some big plays

688
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:35,200
saw him.
Do a couple of those

689
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:39,100
cross-country routes as well.
So, He's the guy that's going to

690
00:43:39,100 --> 00:43:44,500
get the the consistent big plays
in the offense but he he will

691
00:43:44,500 --> 00:43:46,900
occasionally, you know, just be
a guy that moves the sticks for

692
00:43:46,900 --> 00:43:48,100
him.
Like I said, they do run those

693
00:43:48,100 --> 00:43:55,000
digs and comebacks.
So look for him to probably be

694
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,100
the guy that they're going to
take some shots with.

695
00:43:57,100 --> 00:44:00,800
All right, so the next guy is
the guy that's really been

696
00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:02,800
lighting it up.
Stat wise, Jordan Addison,

697
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:06,900
already twenty nine.
Receptions, 524 yards, three

698
00:44:06,900 --> 00:44:10,300
100-yard.
Games, his last three games

699
00:44:10,400 --> 00:44:15,000
6-foot 175, you was a four star
athlete in the consistence.

700
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:17,300
When he came out for 24/7, he's
probably going to go play

701
00:44:17,300 --> 00:44:23,200
defensive back of some type.
And he's a top 150 player, he

702
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:25,900
was the number for athlete in
his class.

703
00:44:25,900 --> 00:44:28,500
So this guy, obviously athletic
as hell.

704
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:35,100
Nine touchdowns averaging 18
yards per reception with 29 524,

705
00:44:36,700 --> 00:44:40,000
It seems like, I look at those
numbers and especially three

706
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,000
100-yard games.
Already this early in the

707
00:44:42,008 --> 00:44:45,300
season, back to back to back.
He's probably not a one-trick

708
00:44:45,300 --> 00:44:48,400
pony.
No, he's kind of to do it all

709
00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:52,400
weapon on the offense, they run
him on.

710
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:56,900
Switch screens.
Swings Slants.

711
00:44:57,100 --> 00:44:59,600
He's got the full complement of
the route.

712
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,700
Tree is available to this guy
and they take advantage of it

713
00:45:02,700 --> 00:45:06,300
with him.
He's a little bit more, elusive.

714
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:11,300
Than fast compared to Mac.
He kind of has that, that

715
00:45:11,300 --> 00:45:14,300
shiftiness they line him up in
different places all over the

716
00:45:14,300 --> 00:45:18,200
field and because of his route
running ability and ability to

717
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,100
really kind of do everything in
that offense.

718
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:23,800
So he's the he's the weapon that
you really have to keep your eye

719
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:28,000
on because he will bust a big
play on you.

720
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,100
But he's also a good stick mover
and kind of the guy that that

721
00:45:31,100 --> 00:45:33,700
pick it will look for when he's
in trouble.

722
00:45:35,100 --> 00:45:38,800
All right, so Macan s and look
for them on the outside and

723
00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:42,300
Brian are they?
They XY are the orders Whipple

724
00:45:42,300 --> 00:45:45,400
movies, guys.
All around Mac is going to

725
00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:49,100
primarily be outside.
Addison will will line up all

726
00:45:49,100 --> 00:45:52,900
over the offensive formation.
All right, all right.

727
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:55,900
Now they have another weapon as
well.

728
00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:59,200
Lucas crawl.
What a journey for.

729
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:03,000
This guy started out at Arkansas
and he came out in 2016, then

730
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:08,200
went to a Juco juuko came out as
a top four player, the top tight

731
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:12,900
end, then he went to Florida,
then he finally transferred to

732
00:46:12,900 --> 00:46:19,000
pit 66 260 a prototypical that's
an NFL tight end body.

733
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:24,300
He has the size and the height,
15 reception so far this year

734
00:46:25,100 --> 00:46:30,700
193 yards and 12.9% options.
He scored touchdowns and 45

735
00:46:30,700 --> 00:46:37,100
games I'm assuming he is your
traditional inline guy.

736
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:41,200
Yeah, he's kind of the
quintessential inline stick

737
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:46,500
mover guy, that uses his sighs.
Well, to create a target for

738
00:46:46,500 --> 00:46:48,300
Kenny.
Pick it on those key Downs.

739
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:54,600
He doesn't do anything flashy,
but he will kind of be the

740
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:56,900
outlet receiver in a lot of
routes.

741
00:46:56,900 --> 00:47:00,200
They'll sometimes work him as
the primary on, like a third to

742
00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:05,500
short and occasionally I think
they threw one gadget Play to

743
00:47:05,500 --> 00:47:07,400
and where they had a wide
receiver.

744
00:47:08,500 --> 00:47:14,800
Throw a kind of a fake screen
touchdown to him against I think

745
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,500
it was Tennessee if I'm not
mistaken when I went back and

746
00:47:17,500 --> 00:47:22,300
watch the tape.
So, okay, you know, kind of kind

747
00:47:22,300 --> 00:47:24,000
of the the traditional mold
there.

748
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:28,000
Nothing that is, you know, you
wouldn't classify him as a joker

749
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:32,000
or anything like that.
He is a typical inline guy that,

750
00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:37,100
you know, has the hands to be a
thread the receiving game.

751
00:47:37,600 --> 00:47:41,100
Yeah.
Um, you know, obviously scoring,

752
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:43,400
you know, touchdowns in four or
five games.

753
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:46,100
They obviously aren't afraid to
utilize him down in the red

754
00:47:46,100 --> 00:47:50,700
zone.
And I just think about a guy

755
00:47:50,700 --> 00:47:54,100
that size.
I mean, we have no one that can

756
00:47:54,100 --> 00:47:56,700
match up with that.
Now, hopefully his speed and

757
00:47:56,700 --> 00:47:59,700
stuff we make up for it.
All right, Brian, let's flip,

758
00:47:59,700 --> 00:48:02,200
let's look at the offensive line
and as much as been talked

759
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:03,700
about, we've talked about the
passing.

760
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:05,900
Yep.
They don't have one set.

761
00:48:05,900 --> 00:48:08,400
Really running back between.
Vez.

762
00:48:08,500 --> 00:48:10,700
I'll be in the cond pronounce
that right?

763
00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:15,000
Andrade hand, and Junior.
They all have roughly the same

764
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,100
numbers, give or take Hammond
jr.

765
00:48:17,100 --> 00:48:20,300
Hadn't played in as many games.
But overall, the rushing offense

766
00:48:20,300 --> 00:48:23,600
is, it's not terrible.
It's about, it's literally

767
00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:26,500
middle of the country and 165
again.

768
00:48:26,500 --> 00:48:31,200
Their 65th, in the nation, and
the line hasn't given up too

769
00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:34,400
much on a twenty four tackles
for loss, only eight sacks,

770
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:37,300
probably more impressive with
the Sax's.

771
00:48:37,300 --> 00:48:41,600
It's only It's under 60 yards.
So it's not like it's, you know,

772
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:48,500
they're giving up 10 or 12 yards
per Sack or even in the Even in

773
00:48:48,500 --> 00:48:51,400
the tackle for loss game, it's
only 198 yards.

774
00:48:51,900 --> 00:48:58,000
So overall, their offensive line
looks pretty good.

775
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:00,600
Yeah.
And a little bit of the running

776
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:04,900
game is a mirage though because
Kenny pick Kenny Pickett is

777
00:49:04,900 --> 00:49:07,600
getting a good number of those
yards, okay?

778
00:49:09,700 --> 00:49:13,300
So when you look at, when you
look at Kenny picket, in terms

779
00:49:13,300 --> 00:49:16,500
of the running game, he's
getting a good amount on

780
00:49:16,500 --> 00:49:19,000
scrambles.
He's getting a good amount on

781
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:24,700
some design runs.
So that is skewing the numbers a

782
00:49:24,707 --> 00:49:26,400
little bit.
When they just line up and hand

783
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:29,900
the ball off, to a running back,
they do a great job of not

784
00:49:29,900 --> 00:49:32,500
getting caught behind the lines
of this isn't a Notre Dame

785
00:49:32,500 --> 00:49:36,500
situation but they're not,
they're not out there gash in

786
00:49:36,500 --> 00:49:41,300
you in the Run game.
It's very much in support of the

787
00:49:41,300 --> 00:49:44,900
passing attack.
They run the ball, they want to

788
00:49:44,900 --> 00:49:48,400
be effective enough in the
running game so you have to

789
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:51,500
honor it so they can throw the
ball like they want to.

790
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,900
Yeah and you're right Brian pick
it I'm just pulling up the data

791
00:49:54,900 --> 00:50:00,000
here he is getting about 25 or
26 yards a game only about under

792
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:05,900
for Carrie but take him out
that's down to 140 that's

793
00:50:05,900 --> 00:50:08,700
significantly falling down.
So I'm glad you made that point.

794
00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:11,500
But what else are we seeing?
From the what about past probe?

795
00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:17,000
so past like I said, they'd like
to set up the set up the run

796
00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:23,600
with the pass, they do a good
job of Protecting Kenny Pickett,

797
00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:26,600
especially with it's just like a
four-man pressure.

798
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:32,300
They also do a good job in Blitz
pickup, but when that is like

799
00:50:32,300 --> 00:50:36,300
add oblate delay Blitz, that's
when you can kind of catch them

800
00:50:36,300 --> 00:50:39,000
napping a little bit.
If they see it coming, they do a

801
00:50:39,008 --> 00:50:42,500
really good job.
They diagnose it and they get

802
00:50:42,500 --> 00:50:44,600
where they need to be.
They don't know where the

803
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:48,100
pressures coming from pre-snap.
All bets are off a little bit

804
00:50:48,100 --> 00:50:50,300
and that's when you can finally
get to Kenny pick it because he

805
00:50:50,300 --> 00:50:53,500
is hard to say.
Sack because of how well they

806
00:50:53,500 --> 00:50:59,200
are up front of it at picking up
the the four-man rush and the in

807
00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:03,400
the pre-snap blitz show.
All right.

808
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:07,700
Brian before we get into a
little data point two players

809
00:51:07,700 --> 00:51:12,700
here what sort of Defense are we
going to see Saturday with our

810
00:51:12,700 --> 00:51:16,600
doozy?
It's a familiar defense buddy we

811
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:18,500
got it we got a four to five
coming in the house.

812
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:28,900
Not a shock day in so far I'm
doing a little little thing here

813
00:51:30,300 --> 00:51:32,300
for these stats.
I'm about to give you I took out

814
00:51:32,300 --> 00:51:36,600
their game against New Hampshire
defensively because it's skewed

815
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:40,300
a little bit and they're scoring
defense.

816
00:51:40,300 --> 00:51:44,100
You take out that game, they're
giving up about 26 and a half in

817
00:51:44,100 --> 00:51:49,000
game which is in the mid 70s.
As far as scoring defense has

818
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,700
go.
Yep, you're given about 383

819
00:51:51,700 --> 00:51:54,000
yards, a game, which is again,
mid-70s.

820
00:51:54,900 --> 00:51:58,400
And I'm gonna get you some data
after Brian goes through these.

821
00:51:58,500 --> 00:52:00,800
We go through these players here
that we've kind of taken a look

822
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:04,500
at and it's going to be just a
little you're going to raise

823
00:52:04,500 --> 00:52:07,700
your eyebrows and say how can
you be here if you take out one

824
00:52:07,700 --> 00:52:10,200
game in your here if you had
them all its cues.

825
00:52:10,300 --> 00:52:13,600
But Brian, let's talk about
defensive line first you know

826
00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:17,400
you got the big clogger in the
middle and Keyshawn Camp 64.

827
00:52:17,500 --> 00:52:20,800
Or 290, you've got baldonado
with three and a half sacks.

828
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:24,100
Coming off the edge, 65 to 60
and that.

829
00:52:24,100 --> 00:52:25,900
And that's who I kind of was
saying to you.

830
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:29,200
What about these guys, Brian?
And you said, nope, there's one

831
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:32,000
guy you need to look up Curtis
please.

832
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:37,200
You can't see six-foot-two 75d
tackle 3 star.

833
00:52:38,300 --> 00:52:41,200
Ten, tackles 2 sacks, 34 loss,
3.

834
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:44,300
Tackles for loss this year, what
is the tape saying?

835
00:52:44,300 --> 00:52:45,900
Because the stats don't jump
out.

836
00:52:45,900 --> 00:52:48,900
The body type doesn't jump out
Brawn, but what is can't see

837
00:52:48,900 --> 00:52:51,700
doing on tape.
That is making this pit.

838
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:54,200
Making him kind of the key on
that deal.

839
00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:58,900
I'm I'm not going to make this
comparison lightly, but it's

840
00:52:58,900 --> 00:53:01,800
like shades of Aaron.
Donald in terms of the way he

841
00:53:01,900 --> 00:53:08,500
has a motor inside the tackles,
he's he doesn't jump off the

842
00:53:08,500 --> 00:53:11,800
screen in the same way that
Aaron Donald does obviously.

843
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:15,400
So, again, this is a comparison
not saying he is that player

844
00:53:16,300 --> 00:53:20,500
that caliber player, but the way
he plays inside, the tackles is

845
00:53:20,500 --> 00:53:23,400
impressive.
He impacts the game even when he

846
00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:28,400
is not making the play, Yeah, he
is blowing up the line of

847
00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:32,200
scrimmage impacting the angle
the running back impacting with

848
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:34,500
the offensive line is doing as a
unit.

849
00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:39,600
He kind of makes the whole
defense go and makes the job of

850
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:41,600
the other deep members of the
defense of wind and the

851
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:44,100
linebackers defending the run
that much easier.

852
00:53:46,100 --> 00:53:55,200
All right, so shades of Aaron
Donald, you know, just when you

853
00:53:55,207 --> 00:53:58,200
think When you look at the body
type, when you look at at the

854
00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:01,700
impact it, but that's that was
the first thing that jumped off

855
00:54:01,700 --> 00:54:03,800
to me.
Like I said, I don't think we're

856
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:08,100
looking at that caliber player.
But in terms of how he impacts

857
00:54:08,100 --> 00:54:11,400
the game, that that's the type
of player you're looking at,

858
00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:16,500
it's essentially, his job is
similar to Donald's and it's

859
00:54:16,500 --> 00:54:21,600
probably why you're seeing
baldonado have sex and Pam,

860
00:54:22,500 --> 00:54:26,700
Keyshawn Camp have some sacks as
well because Of if he's eating

861
00:54:26,700 --> 00:54:28,700
that space and he's getting in
gaps.

862
00:54:29,100 --> 00:54:33,400
Essentially, there there's
nowhere to go there with him, do

863
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,400
it.
He's a star but he doesn't have

864
00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:40,300
to eat to be the star.
All right, makes sense.

865
00:54:40,300 --> 00:54:42,200
All right, let's take a look at
the next guy.

866
00:54:42,700 --> 00:54:49,700
Take a look at John petition 6.
1 to 25 so far this year twenty

867
00:54:49,700 --> 00:54:52,800
two tackles and in interceptions
couple sacks and four tackles

868
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:58,400
for loss.
Seventh year behind ya that bit

869
00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:01,800
of we're going to say that we've
said that quite a few times this

870
00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:04,400
year while he was a three-star
who actually originally

871
00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:08,000
committed to Penn State bringing
it from Pittsburgh transferred,

872
00:55:08,000 --> 00:55:09,600
back to Pittsburgh as a
transfer.

873
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:14,700
And I think you're about to say
a familiar position for us.

874
00:55:15,700 --> 00:55:19,900
Yeah this is a whip and probably
more of a traditional whip than

875
00:55:19,900 --> 00:55:22,200
what we have Tamara Connor
playing now.

876
00:55:24,000 --> 00:55:28,100
It's more of it.
More true true hybrid versus

877
00:55:28,900 --> 00:55:33,400
kind of the the nickel that
Shamari plays on a regular

878
00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:38,100
basis.
He doesn't this, you know he's

879
00:55:38,100 --> 00:55:41,100
very it's a very Sound Player.
He does a great job with

880
00:55:41,100 --> 00:55:43,400
backside run contain from that
position.

881
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:47,200
They Blitz him a lot as well.
He gets some impact in there

882
00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:51,100
especially on run blitzes.
So he's not necessarily a guy

883
00:55:51,100 --> 00:55:54,700
that they're bringing after the
quarterback a whole ton but he

884
00:55:54,700 --> 00:55:58,400
blew You up a big goal line play
against Tennessee, coming off

885
00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:02,000
the edge hard.
So he'll they'll bring him a lot

886
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:04,900
in run blitz, situations where
he can really impact the edge of

887
00:56:04,900 --> 00:56:09,700
the defense and just a solid
overall player that, you know,

888
00:56:09,700 --> 00:56:14,200
kind of just wears you down a
little bit, so nothing flashy,

889
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:18,500
but just somebody to keep an eye
on nothing flashy, but if he's a

890
00:56:18,500 --> 00:56:22,500
guy doing his job hurts us even
more on.

891
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:24,800
Now, what about this next guy?
Braun.

892
00:56:25,500 --> 00:56:32,000
Brandon Hill looks like a safety
511. 195 leads a team in tackles

893
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:34,600
with 28.
Also has a pic in there was a

894
00:56:34,607 --> 00:56:39,300
three-star when he came out.
What are we seeing from this guy

895
00:56:39,300 --> 00:56:41,800
to have so many tackles
secondary position?

896
00:56:43,100 --> 00:56:47,400
Yeah, he's kind of the cleaner,
he's that classic safety, that's

897
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:49,400
coming up there and filling on
running plays.

898
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:54,600
He is patrolling the middle kind
of that that Rover position for

899
00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,500
us.
Very similar to similar to that.

900
00:56:57,500 --> 00:57:00,900
He kind of rolls in to the
middle to the back of the

901
00:57:00,900 --> 00:57:04,000
defense plays really good and
Zone coverage.

902
00:57:05,300 --> 00:57:08,600
They like to drop him inside the
box and Zone coverage and he'll

903
00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:11,600
he'll make some noise.
They're very sure tackler.

904
00:57:12,600 --> 00:57:16,700
Big hitter in the secondary,
he'll he'll lay out if you come

905
00:57:16,700 --> 00:57:19,500
across the middle.
And like I said, great in zone

906
00:57:19,500 --> 00:57:21,500
coverage.
He can be beat when he is in a

907
00:57:21,508 --> 00:57:23,400
man situation.
So that's one area we could

908
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:26,500
potentially take advantage of
their But he's also the one that

909
00:57:26,500 --> 00:57:29,800
picked off hidden hooker against
Tennessee, to kind of close that

910
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:34,200
game out there.
Alright, so again, not only guy

911
00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:36,400
that can obviously clean up the
Run.

912
00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:39,700
Not afraid to stick his head in
there, but we have to keep an

913
00:57:39,700 --> 00:57:42,200
eye out for him intercepting
passes.

914
00:57:42,400 --> 00:57:45,000
Wonderful.
All right I remember this name

915
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:48,000
from last year.
Brian sobytia', dentist, one of

916
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:51,300
the inside linebackers there.
We talked about him last year.

917
00:57:52,100 --> 00:57:55,700
You know, he's 61 230 was a
two-star.

918
00:57:55,700 --> 00:57:59,300
When he came out, twenty seven,
tackles two for loss and a sack.

919
00:58:01,900 --> 00:58:03,700
What do you think about him,
Brian?

920
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,000
Yeah, he's kind of the guy in
the middle of the defense that

921
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:10,400
kind of makes them go and allows
that first level of their

922
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:14,900
defense to be so strong along
with that defensive line, he's

923
00:58:14,900 --> 00:58:18,300
kind of eating up, anything that
gets through that that defensive

924
00:58:18,300 --> 00:58:19,800
line.
There does a good job running

925
00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:24,100
sideline to sideline and a good
job of preventing.

926
00:58:24,100 --> 00:58:28,200
Any runs up the middle from
getting to the second level and

927
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:32,600
when he does Blitz makes makes a
lot, makes the quarterback Rush

928
00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:33,600
there.
Throws a lot.

929
00:58:34,500 --> 00:58:37,700
We'll work in some delay blitzes
and things like that on a

930
00:58:37,700 --> 00:58:40,300
regular basis.
So he's a guy they're going to

931
00:58:40,308 --> 00:58:43,600
have to watch out for not only
you know when we run the ball

932
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:47,800
trying to get past him up to the
second level but also make sure

933
00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:52,100
that he doesn't get to Braxton.
Absolutely.

934
00:58:52,500 --> 00:58:55,500
All right, so about eight
minutes ago, we started this

935
00:58:55,500 --> 00:58:57,400
segment.
I gave you all some adjusted

936
00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:00,200
numbers.
I didn't adjust these numbers

937
00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:03,200
and it kind of paints a picture
as a team, who's on the back

938
00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:05,600
half of the defense and a team.
That's a leak.

939
00:59:05,900 --> 00:59:08,900
So I look at all five of their
games.

940
00:59:08,900 --> 00:59:11,800
Brian and third down conversion
rate.

941
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:16,400
They are a top 10 conversion
rate, giving up less than 27

942
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:20,200
percent converting.
When you have all five, Five of

943
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:23,300
their games.
Now the other one maybe not as

944
00:59:23,300 --> 00:59:26,600
much of a difference but showing
they're really good in the Red

945
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:28,800
Zone their ninth in the country
in the Red Zone.

946
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:32,300
When looking at all five of
their games and I wanted to do

947
00:59:32,300 --> 00:59:37,100
this because when you take out
that big skew game and you look

948
00:59:37,100 --> 00:59:41,100
at more of just the power 5
opponents and you can do this

949
00:59:41,100 --> 00:59:44,200
for us as well and it will skew
our defensive numbers without a

950
00:59:44,207 --> 00:59:47,900
doubt.
But when I see a team from going

951
00:59:47,900 --> 00:59:52,900
in the top 10, Fifteen being
down in the 70s.

952
00:59:53,700 --> 00:59:57,000
I feel like maybe their defense
is a little bit of a mirage.

953
00:59:57,000 --> 01:00:02,700
They have their issues that
because they played one really

954
01:00:02,700 --> 01:00:05,700
bad team.
The numbers are saying they're a

955
01:00:05,700 --> 01:00:07,800
lot better than actually, what
they are.

956
01:00:09,900 --> 01:00:13,600
Yeah, and they're not, they're
not great on the outside, we can

957
01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:17,500
we should be able to beat them
outside with our receivers.

958
01:00:19,300 --> 01:00:24,800
So that's one thing to look for
is that they are they're a good

959
01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:28,600
defense but they're not an elite
defense in my mind.

960
01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:32,200
They're they're, they're
probably closer to you know if

961
01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:35,300
you put the you put the numbers
in there, over the course of a

962
01:00:35,300 --> 01:00:39,400
full season, you're probably
looking at a defense in the 40s

963
01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:44,500
or 50s, Not kind of where their
ranking right now with that a

964
01:00:44,500 --> 01:00:48,900
larger game in place.
So you know what, we will see.

965
01:00:48,900 --> 01:00:50,800
I know we're about to talk about
what the Hokies are going to

966
01:00:50,808 --> 01:00:53,400
have to do here to kind of
counter what they bring to the

967
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:56,200
table.
So and we absolutely have to

968
01:00:56,207 --> 01:01:01,000
talk about it to Zeta version.
We've continued to move on and

969
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:05,800
on, we're going to look at the
defense first Prime because when

970
01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:08,200
a team coming is coming in
scoring this much.

971
01:01:08,300 --> 01:01:12,300
Moving the ball at will having
some weaknesses.

972
01:01:12,300 --> 01:01:16,800
But not having a significant
weakness, like we felt Notre

973
01:01:16,800 --> 01:01:18,700
Dame had problems with the
offensive line.

974
01:01:18,700 --> 01:01:22,200
We saw it rear chatterley, but
mugger in.

975
01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:26,300
It changed the dynamic.
But I think what we're going to

976
01:01:26,300 --> 01:01:30,500
start with here is, although he
has some athleticism, there is

977
01:01:30,500 --> 01:01:33,700
no way, Kenny pick, it is going
to run as much as Buckner did

978
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:37,300
for success for having our
defensive end Pace him.

979
01:01:38,100 --> 01:01:43,200
So we are coming out and saying
we got to put Kenny up and pick

980
01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:47,900
it on his fucking ass.
A minimum of 10 times hitting

981
01:01:47,900 --> 01:01:52,000
him dip.
Minimum got to hit him 10 times.

982
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:55,800
I'd like to see at least four
sacks that would be a good

983
01:01:55,800 --> 01:02:00,300
number to start with it.
Like I said, it's hard to get to

984
01:02:00,300 --> 01:02:05,400
him, we got jehan's going to
have to dial up, something a

985
01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:07,700
little creative and hopefully
early on.

986
01:02:07,700 --> 01:02:10,900
We can at least get some
pressure with four and then kind

987
01:02:10,900 --> 01:02:13,600
of mix up some of the blitzes as
we go along there too.

988
01:02:13,900 --> 01:02:18,100
When they start to adjust to
that, All right, so put Kenny

989
01:02:18,100 --> 01:02:21,800
down.
Now the next one we talked about

990
01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:24,200
the Run game, Brian.
Brought the point that pick it

991
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:27,300
as part of that run game but
they're still getting 140 yards

992
01:02:27,300 --> 01:02:29,900
from a couple guys which is
still not too terrible.

993
01:02:29,900 --> 01:02:35,100
Especially the way they're
passing the ball and I think I

994
01:02:35,100 --> 01:02:38,300
know we didn't put a number on
this brine, if they run the ball

995
01:02:38,300 --> 01:02:45,900
30 times, they can't crack 110.
We have to keep it in that mid

996
01:02:45,900 --> 01:02:48,900
three.
If they're a virgin for Carrie

997
01:02:49,300 --> 01:02:51,700
it's going to get ugly.
Yeah.

998
01:02:51,700 --> 01:02:54,200
Because if they're able to
complement their paths attack

999
01:02:54,200 --> 01:02:57,700
with a rushing attack that can
get them in short, you know,

1000
01:02:58,300 --> 01:03:01,500
secondly manageable third
manageable situations that's

1001
01:03:01,500 --> 01:03:04,300
going to let Kenny Pickett
really have his option of who to

1002
01:03:04,300 --> 01:03:06,400
throw to.
We need to keep them behind the

1003
01:03:06,400 --> 01:03:09,600
sticks.
And, you know, we want to make

1004
01:03:09,600 --> 01:03:12,000
them as one-dimensional as
possible.

1005
01:03:12,900 --> 01:03:15,500
I know there.
Strength is throwing the ball

1006
01:03:15,500 --> 01:03:19,300
around, but if we can take away
the run that strength, becomes a

1007
01:03:19,300 --> 01:03:22,800
little bit less, so that's going
to be.

1008
01:03:22,808 --> 01:03:25,400
The goal is to make sure we
contain that rushing attack and

1009
01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:27,300
make any pick it have to beat
us.

1010
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:30,400
Yeah, and that's what we're
looking for, you know?

1011
01:03:32,300 --> 01:03:35,200
By having that semblance of a
Russian attack.

1012
01:03:35,300 --> 01:03:40,000
You know, pick is averaging
about 12 and attempt if they

1013
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:42,000
keep the Russian attack it's
definitely going to be twelve.

1014
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:45,300
Maybe even more the way things
have worked the last few weeks.

1015
01:03:46,100 --> 01:03:50,300
But if you can tell me that he's
at like between eight and nine

1016
01:03:50,900 --> 01:03:53,600
and that's only to my says
that's only three yards but when

1017
01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:56,700
you throw it as much as they've
thrown at this year, you know,

1018
01:03:56,700 --> 01:04:01,800
where they're throwing it close
to 35 times a game that's 100.

1019
01:04:03,500 --> 01:04:07,000
Also, the more we can put them
in situations where they're

1020
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:09,500
passing on obvious passing
Downs.

1021
01:04:09,700 --> 01:04:11,800
Oh yeah.
That means we can, we can come

1022
01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:14,000
at them.
We can make play calls that are

1023
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:18,100
specific for that type of play.
And that's why it's important to

1024
01:04:18,107 --> 01:04:20,400
get behind.
You keep them behind the sticks

1025
01:04:21,100 --> 01:04:25,000
if you get them and you know,
second and ten second and eight.

1026
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:28,500
If we can do that consistently
they're going to have to start

1027
01:04:28,500 --> 01:04:31,900
throwing the ball on those Downs
that we're going to be able to

1028
01:04:32,400 --> 01:04:36,700
adjust according Ali and either
bring some sort of Blitz in or

1029
01:04:37,000 --> 01:04:39,200
we can definitely pin your ears
back a little bit more than we

1030
01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:42,200
would, if we were in like a
second and five second and for

1031
01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:45,900
situation, absolutely another
one, Brian you put this on here.

1032
01:04:45,900 --> 01:04:49,700
And after talking about Mac,
reading about macron about

1033
01:04:49,700 --> 01:04:55,100
Addison, we've got to tackle, I
don't think we can afford to

1034
01:04:55,100 --> 01:04:59,900
tackle like we did last week
because I think these guys

1035
01:05:00,700 --> 01:05:03,600
Because they're much more
receivers than running backs.

1036
01:05:04,500 --> 01:05:06,000
They have potential go, big
play.

1037
01:05:07,100 --> 01:05:10,300
Yeah, yeah.
If we don't wrap them up and

1038
01:05:10,300 --> 01:05:14,400
they get into space, they've got
the speed to turn it into a home

1039
01:05:14,400 --> 01:05:16,800
run.
So limit, the run after the

1040
01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:23,500
catch, and that means tackling,
we can't see what we saw.

1041
01:05:23,900 --> 01:05:28,000
Especially in the Red Zone last
week against Notre Dame, having

1042
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:31,700
three tackles on a, on a single
Three B, tackles on the single

1043
01:05:31,700 --> 01:05:35,500
play, got to wrap up.
Got to get guys to the dirt.

1044
01:05:36,200 --> 01:05:40,900
If we can do that, then we at
least limit the the big play

1045
01:05:40,900 --> 01:05:44,300
potential of that offense.
Yep.

1046
01:05:44,900 --> 01:05:48,400
Alright, the last piece here,
Braun, I've been talking to you

1047
01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:52,000
about it.
We are literally the worst team

1048
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:56,100
in the country in the Red Zone.
If you get in the Red Zone

1049
01:05:56,100 --> 01:06:02,500
against us, you score touchdowns
You score touchdowns 8 out of 3

1050
01:06:02,500 --> 01:06:06,100
times 8 out of 11 times, the
clothes, 20% of the time you're

1051
01:06:06,100 --> 01:06:09,100
getting it in.
We haven't stopped anybody.

1052
01:06:10,100 --> 01:06:12,700
Christine 411, we haven't even
blocked a field goal, doorstop

1053
01:06:12,700 --> 01:06:17,400
field goals. this is if it
doesn't change this week, I

1054
01:06:17,400 --> 01:06:21,200
mean, You know, there's no
chance.

1055
01:06:23,100 --> 01:06:28,700
Yeah I think that's that's the
big thing is that we we our

1056
01:06:28,700 --> 01:06:32,800
defense has shown such
significant Improvement that

1057
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:36,200
it's sad that we're seeing that
one statistic be so glaring

1058
01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:37,700
right now.
Yes, it is.

1059
01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:41,700
It seems like as soon as they
get in the Red Zone, we forget

1060
01:06:41,700 --> 01:06:44,000
how to tackle forget how to
cover.

1061
01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:50,400
And it's getting a little, a
little silly, and I'm not so

1062
01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:55,200
much concerned about, you know,
getting turnovers here blocking

1063
01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:59,100
kicks.
I just want, if you just flip or

1064
01:06:59,100 --> 01:07:03,600
bring that, bring that touchdown
to field goal ratio at least

1065
01:07:03,600 --> 01:07:08,300
closer to that. 50% Mark, if not
better, that, I'd be fine with

1066
01:07:08,300 --> 01:07:11,700
that.
I think if you told me we were,

1067
01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:15,700
you know, five touchdowns six
field, goals or six, touchdowns,

1068
01:07:15,700 --> 01:07:19,400
five field goals, I'd feel okay
about it but we're about to

1069
01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:22,000
About three touchdowns worse
than we should be.

1070
01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:24,300
We got it.
We had a force them to kick

1071
01:07:24,300 --> 01:07:26,600
three more often when they get
in the scoring area.

1072
01:07:27,000 --> 01:07:29,800
Well, if it was flipped
completely Brian and it was

1073
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:32,400
eight field goals, three
touchdowns, I'd be celebrating

1074
01:07:32,400 --> 01:07:33,700
that number.
Yeah.

1075
01:07:33,700 --> 01:07:36,800
Yeah.
When you get down here, cool,

1076
01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:41,500
you're going to score on us
about 20% of the time for

1077
01:07:41,500 --> 01:07:44,500
touchdowns every other time,
you're going to be kicking free.

1078
01:07:44,900 --> 01:07:47,700
Well, it would go back into the
Mantra of the bend don't break

1079
01:07:47,700 --> 01:07:49,400
that.
We've done a really good job at

1080
01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:52,300
Between the 20s.
We just need to do a better job

1081
01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:55,900
inside the 20.
All right, let's flip it over to

1082
01:07:55,900 --> 01:07:57,100
the offense.
Brian.

1083
01:07:57,100 --> 01:08:00,500
And again the version we've got
to see.

1084
01:08:01,400 --> 01:08:04,700
We did not break 30 last week.
Even with the defensive

1085
01:08:04,700 --> 01:08:11,100
touchdowns, even with five
scoring drives five, we did not

1086
01:08:11,100 --> 01:08:14,100
break 30.
I don't think we can win this

1087
01:08:14,100 --> 01:08:17,899
game in the terms.
Now, we've got at least get to

1088
01:08:17,899 --> 01:08:20,300
30.
Preferably morbid.

1089
01:08:20,300 --> 01:08:24,100
Mid-30s is probably where we're
going to at least have to get

1090
01:08:24,100 --> 01:08:29,399
against this pit team.
And it's going to take a little

1091
01:08:29,399 --> 01:08:30,600
bit of different things to get
there.

1092
01:08:30,600 --> 01:08:33,200
The, I think, the first thing is
that we need to run the ball

1093
01:08:33,300 --> 01:08:36,399
somewhat effectively early in
the game and then use that

1094
01:08:36,399 --> 01:08:39,399
rushing attack to lengthen, the
game limit, the time that you're

1095
01:08:39,399 --> 01:08:41,100
going to give Kenny Pickett to
score.

1096
01:08:42,300 --> 01:08:44,800
And if if your defense is doing
what it should do and that is go

1097
01:08:44,800 --> 01:08:48,700
occasionally, forcing some field
goals, then you're working with

1098
01:08:48,700 --> 01:08:50,399
something there because you
shorten the game.

1099
01:08:52,100 --> 01:08:54,500
And you've made it so that Kenny
pick.

1100
01:08:54,500 --> 01:08:57,899
It has to be more perfect than
he's used to being because he's

1101
01:08:57,899 --> 01:09:01,899
not touching the ball very much.
The other thing we need to do is

1102
01:09:01,899 --> 01:09:05,100
get Braxton comfortable in the
short passing game and play

1103
01:09:05,100 --> 01:09:07,300
action early.
And that starts with that

1104
01:09:07,500 --> 01:09:09,600
rushing attack, man.
Yeah.

1105
01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:11,700
And right now we're not running
the ball.

1106
01:09:11,700 --> 01:09:14,800
Good at all.
We did get creative with Trail.

1107
01:09:14,800 --> 01:09:19,200
A couple sweets D plays like
that but overall, I running game

1108
01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:24,800
less be be scrambling.
And getting great gangs, we

1109
01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:29,800
don't have an effective rushing
attack and, and, and I don't

1110
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:33,100
know if it's, I mean, a last
week, quarterbacks running the

1111
01:09:33,100 --> 01:09:37,100
ball 17 times compared to 24,
multiple running backs.

1112
01:09:38,500 --> 01:09:42,700
If we're this deep into season
and they haven't decided on who

1113
01:09:42,700 --> 01:09:46,100
the two or three backs.
Are they brought Malachi up, the

1114
01:09:46,100 --> 01:09:51,000
freshman and I'm fine with that.
But it's like we're we can't get

1115
01:09:51,000 --> 01:09:53,000
production.
Rahim, black chairs, look like

1116
01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:55,400
the best guy.
I know what irritates you run

1117
01:09:55,400 --> 01:10:01,100
that, they still cannot use him
correctly because essentially

1118
01:10:01,100 --> 01:10:04,000
they're struggling to use them
correctly because the the end up

1119
01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:07,800
having to use him as the primary
lead bag and so many instances,

1120
01:10:09,500 --> 01:10:14,200
So, and I get that if he's your
most effective guy, you've got

1121
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:16,700
to use them there, but it's just
sad that we haven't found

1122
01:10:16,700 --> 01:10:18,500
someone.
That is more effective between

1123
01:10:18,500 --> 01:10:21,800
the tackles, and it's sad that
our offensive line hasn't taken

1124
01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:23,600
some of the strides.
I thought they would take

1125
01:10:23,700 --> 01:10:26,500
because I thought the offensive
line would be okay this year, it

1126
01:10:26,500 --> 01:10:30,600
especially in the Run game and
we have not seen that.

1127
01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:37,100
No, you know, we looked at, you
know, pretty much a I didn't

1128
01:10:37,100 --> 01:10:41,000
think we'd see much drop off in
the interior and I thought that

1129
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:44,800
the tackles that we had at least
in the Run game would be good

1130
01:10:44,800 --> 01:10:49,200
enough to more or less be in the
ballpark of last year just with

1131
01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:52,800
the less Dynamic rushing attack
from the actual running back

1132
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:56,500
position because we knew we
weren't getting a Herbert type

1133
01:10:56,500 --> 01:10:59,600
player at running back this
year.

1134
01:10:59,600 --> 01:11:02,400
We knew that we do.
The Blackshear has other

1135
01:11:02,400 --> 01:11:06,400
abilities that are that are
beneficial to the offense but he

1136
01:11:06,600 --> 01:11:10,200
I'm going to put out the type of
rushing attack in the outside

1137
01:11:10,200 --> 01:11:13,800
Zone and the running game is a
hole that we saw from Herbert

1138
01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:17,000
but we haven't.
That means offensive line just

1139
01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:22,700
has not played a four-quarter,
good game yet well and we seen

1140
01:11:22,700 --> 01:11:25,900
flashes here and there, we've
seen Quarters here and there but

1141
01:11:25,900 --> 01:11:29,500
again they're not putting it
together and it almost comes to

1142
01:11:29,500 --> 01:11:31,100
a point.
You want to question Vance, Vice

1143
01:11:31,100 --> 01:11:34,000
of rotating guys, where you're
almost sitting there.

1144
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:36,600
It's like when you have a
successful quarter just like Let

1145
01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:43,300
that ride don't you don't
because it goes back to the old,

1146
01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:48,400
the old, you know, the pieces of
well it's this guy's turn to run

1147
01:11:48,400 --> 01:11:51,200
the ball.
Well, the other Jag just went

1148
01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:54,700
his last two drives.
Had eight carries for 40 yards.

1149
01:11:55,300 --> 01:11:58,400
I wouldn't take him out right
now unless he was a breather.

1150
01:11:58,900 --> 01:12:01,100
It's not even game Flow specific
either.

1151
01:12:01,100 --> 01:12:04,800
Like that's, you know, if if you
get a lead on a team and you put

1152
01:12:04,800 --> 01:12:12,100
in your like Caden more or a
Silas at a certain position guys

1153
01:12:12,100 --> 01:12:15,500
that you know or more road
graders than they are

1154
01:12:15,500 --> 01:12:18,300
necessarily Elite pass
protectors then.

1155
01:12:18,300 --> 01:12:21,300
At least, you know, your kind of
catering to the game Flow.

1156
01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:25,000
Yeah, that makes sense.
What doesn't make sense is just

1157
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:27,300
kind of throwing guys out there
to see what works.

1158
01:12:27,300 --> 01:12:29,600
We're in.
We're going and there are six

1159
01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:32,700
Game of the Year.
This should have been figured

1160
01:12:32,700 --> 01:12:36,100
out by now, and we've only had
really one injury to dictate

1161
01:12:36,100 --> 01:12:38,700
any.
Sort of shuffling, well, swing

1162
01:12:38,700 --> 01:12:43,100
it elephants were one game and
Silas was back against Notre

1163
01:12:43,100 --> 01:12:46,600
Dame's.
So absolutely figure out your

1164
01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:52,500
best five and only sub.
If it is game Flow specific, if

1165
01:12:52,500 --> 01:12:55,100
we're if we're behind and we're
dropping back a lot.

1166
01:12:55,100 --> 01:12:57,100
Absolutely.
Get your best five pass

1167
01:12:57,100 --> 01:13:01,700
protectors out there and, you
know, vice versa, if we get up

1168
01:13:01,700 --> 01:13:05,100
and we're trying to grind the
game out, but don't just keep

1169
01:13:05,100 --> 01:13:08,500
switching lineups.
Rather drive to see what's

1170
01:13:08,500 --> 01:13:13,100
working.
I mean, we were either what up,

1171
01:13:13,100 --> 01:13:18,500
or close to close to being up
and pretty much the duration of

1172
01:13:18,800 --> 01:13:20,700
the Notre Dame game.
There was no, there was not a

1173
01:13:20,700 --> 01:13:24,500
game Flow situation, where it
said we should be subbing

1174
01:13:24,900 --> 01:13:28,000
offensive lineman in and out.
None, none whatsoever.

1175
01:13:28,300 --> 01:13:31,400
And talk about all you talked
about the offensive line in

1176
01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:36,400
general, but I'm going to flip
it back the passing game because

1177
01:13:36,500 --> 01:13:40,100
we saw some elements of that
short and mid-range game last

1178
01:13:40,100 --> 01:13:44,000
Saturday work that when we were
actually driving the ball,

1179
01:13:44,100 --> 01:13:47,300
that's where the successes were.
And I know your big thing is

1180
01:13:47,300 --> 01:13:50,100
getting comfortable, get him
comfortable, but Brian, you've

1181
01:13:50,100 --> 01:13:52,800
also mentioned as much as we
need to get that play action

1182
01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:56,700
going.
Looking at the tape, we can't

1183
01:13:56,700 --> 01:14:00,900
sit there and try to drive the
ball 15 plays every time we've

1184
01:14:00,900 --> 01:14:04,700
got and I mean, everyone's yeah,
and the way they go outside,

1185
01:14:04,700 --> 01:14:07,400
it's very much similar to what
But Bud used to do.

1186
01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:10,800
They are going to get up on you,
it's going to be some man or

1187
01:14:10,800 --> 01:14:16,800
some Kind of that press Cover 3,
they're going to, we're going to

1188
01:14:16,808 --> 01:14:19,300
have some opportunities to take
some shots down the field.

1189
01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:23,200
And we need to take those,
there's going to be one on one

1190
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:25,000
situations.
There's going to be a couple of

1191
01:14:25,008 --> 01:14:29,100
free release situations.
We've got to not be afraid to

1192
01:14:29,100 --> 01:14:32,100
press the ball downfield when
they give it to us and we got to

1193
01:14:32,108 --> 01:14:34,900
complete those passes.
All right?

1194
01:14:34,900 --> 01:14:38,900
So there's the version of what
we feel like needs to happen for

1195
01:14:38,900 --> 01:14:42,100
the Hokies to win.
And now it's our prediction time

1196
01:14:42,100 --> 01:14:45,100
Brian Braun last week you led.
So I'm going to leave this week

1197
01:14:45,100 --> 01:14:50,100
and as much as I want to win
this game because the last Last

1198
01:14:50,100 --> 01:14:54,800
game mean you went to at Lane,
stadium was fit in 2019 in the

1199
01:14:54,800 --> 01:15:00,400
28-nothing when how Narducci has
acted throughout his time at

1200
01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:02,300
Pitt?
He acts a lot of time like a

1201
01:15:02,308 --> 01:15:05,400
petulant child on the sidelines
he's talking shit.

1202
01:15:05,400 --> 01:15:08,800
Again about jumping off side so
he does he does not believe car

1203
01:15:08,800 --> 01:15:13,300
may exist man.
He re yeah he jumped I mean last

1204
01:15:13,300 --> 01:15:15,800
time he said that they jumped
off three times and that game we

1205
01:15:15,800 --> 01:15:19,000
were it walks in there and rain
so blamed I what backed out of

1206
01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:23,900
me It was like what 52?
Yeah somewhere 50 50 to 55

1207
01:15:23,900 --> 01:15:26,100
somewhere in that range.
Yeah, it was it was a rainy one

1208
01:15:27,500 --> 01:15:33,800
and but but I can't go with this
Prime.

1209
01:15:33,800 --> 01:15:35,900
We're sewing instance, do on
offense.

1210
01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:39,600
They have a good offense.
Our defense is good.

1211
01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:42,000
Is it Elite know if it was a
lead?

1212
01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:46,400
We have I'd probably flip this.
We had a good defense on Elite

1213
01:15:46,400 --> 01:15:49,100
defense.
I offenses inconsistent.

1214
01:15:49,500 --> 01:15:53,700
It basically, bottom third
bottom quarter of the entire

1215
01:15:53,700 --> 01:15:58,100
country and I think probably
it's going to come down to just

1216
01:15:58,300 --> 01:16:03,400
them getting one extra score and
I'm going 3427.

1217
01:16:05,300 --> 01:16:07,500
Yeah, and I'm pretty much right
there with you.

1218
01:16:07,500 --> 01:16:10,800
In terms of the point
differential I'm a little bit

1219
01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:13,100
lower on both teams.
I think our defense probably

1220
01:16:13,100 --> 01:16:15,700
plays one of the better games,
especially considering the

1221
01:16:15,700 --> 01:16:19,700
competition this year.
I think the final is going to be

1222
01:16:19,700 --> 01:16:24,700
3124 pit because I don't think
that the offense does enough on

1223
01:16:24,700 --> 01:16:27,700
capitalizing on some of the
shots we can take down field.

1224
01:16:27,900 --> 01:16:31,300
Yeah, I think we do enough
moving the football to get

1225
01:16:31,300 --> 01:16:35,000
probably at least three scoring
drives.

1226
01:16:35,300 --> 01:16:37,400
And then, can I say this?
I don't think it's going to be

1227
01:16:37,400 --> 01:16:40,600
last year.
No, no, no, I think the

1228
01:16:40,600 --> 01:16:44,100
combination of this defense
being better and it being in

1229
01:16:44,100 --> 01:16:46,400
Lane.
I think that alone kind of puts

1230
01:16:46,400 --> 01:16:50,600
this in a closer match.
Ouch up than what we saw last

1231
01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:51,600
year.
Yeah.

1232
01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:55,300
If you told me this was in
Hinds, I would, I would say, I

1233
01:16:55,300 --> 01:16:59,200
could go at least six to six to
ten points higher on the

1234
01:17:00,800 --> 01:17:04,100
differential layer.
But in I'll say this, if you ask

1235
01:17:04,100 --> 01:17:06,800
us well what has to happen in
this game from the wind will

1236
01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:09,500
consistency and offense the
scoring Drive.

1237
01:17:09,500 --> 01:17:13,900
Some last week, we had if we see
that 80% of the time, we have a

1238
01:17:13,900 --> 01:17:19,800
chance, but my big One's Gonna
Be this I think we have to be

1239
01:17:20,800 --> 01:17:24,500
plus 2.
Turnover differential, plus 2 in

1240
01:17:24,500 --> 01:17:27,900
the turnover differential.
We were plus 2, and it's going

1241
01:17:27,900 --> 01:17:30,800
to be hard to force that it's
going to be hard to force that.

1242
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:33,800
Can he pick?
It, doesn't turn the ball over

1243
01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:35,700
very much.
I think the opportunity we might

1244
01:17:35,700 --> 01:17:39,800
have to get him to turn the ball
over is probably going to be you

1245
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:43,600
know, either one of those good
Breaks by Jermaine or Armani on

1246
01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:48,600
the outside or if we can get
somebody into the backfield and

1247
01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:51,100
get a you know, a sack fumble,
he is up.

1248
01:17:51,100 --> 01:17:54,900
He has a propensity to When he
gets back to let go of the ball

1249
01:17:54,900 --> 01:18:00,000
so maybe that can happen.
All right, Brian, let's go ahead

1250
01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:02,000
and take a look at the 10
additional games.

1251
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:06,100
This Saturday, pick them current
record, Braun had a miserable

1252
01:18:06,100 --> 01:18:11,200
weekend, goes to games under 30,
and 32, I had my best weekend of

1253
01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:13,800
the year.
I'm now four games over at 33

1254
01:18:13,800 --> 01:18:17,700
and 29 and I'm on a lead.
Let's start Friday night in the

1255
01:18:17,700 --> 01:18:23,500
ACC in the dome run.
Syracuse Clemson Clemson is

1256
01:18:23,500 --> 01:18:27,800
laying 13 and a half points.
This isn't legal limit but the

1257
01:18:27,800 --> 01:18:32,400
way Clemson has played all year
and the waist excuses, played

1258
01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:36,400
both on the road and at home.
There.

1259
01:18:37,400 --> 01:18:40,700
I don't know what Vegas is on
and I know they build hotels

1260
01:18:40,700 --> 01:18:44,400
every day because people that
it, but I cannot see, Clemson,

1261
01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:47,700
probably wins the game outright,
but it's going to be an absolute

1262
01:18:47,700 --> 01:18:50,500
grind Fest but I'll give me
cues.

1263
01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:54,000
I'll take the 13 to have points.
I'm right with you.

1264
01:18:55,400 --> 01:18:58,800
I think you've got Carrier Dome
+ improved.

1265
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:04,100
Rushing attack, + above average
defense for Syracuse, I think, I

1266
01:19:04,108 --> 01:19:07,200
think that's enough.
If to keep this game under two

1267
01:19:07,200 --> 01:19:10,300
touchdowns just because I
haven't seen enough from

1268
01:19:10,300 --> 01:19:12,900
Clemson's offense to know that
they're able to pull away from

1269
01:19:12,900 --> 01:19:14,700
anybody.
So yeah.

1270
01:19:14,700 --> 01:19:19,200
You begin the over-under in the
over unders 45 and you split

1271
01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:22,000
that out and take the 13 away.
That's a 32.

1272
01:19:22,700 --> 01:19:25,700
They're saying this is going to
be like Clemson 36:16.

1273
01:19:28,300 --> 01:19:34,700
Yeah, Clemson 30.
No Clemson getting 30 opening,

1274
01:19:34,700 --> 01:19:38,100
getting the 30, they probably
win the game 27:17.

1275
01:19:38,300 --> 01:19:42,000
All right, let's go to the 12:30
kick in the ACC.

1276
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:46,800
Braun Duke goes to
Charlottesville was and UVA.

1277
01:19:47,500 --> 01:19:51,200
UVA is the 11-point.
Favorite will say you on this

1278
01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:58,000
one.
Man, Duke 10 be some favors last

1279
01:19:58,000 --> 01:20:06,000
week.
Give me UVA.

1280
01:20:07,300 --> 01:20:10,500
All right.
Give me UVA.

1281
01:20:10,500 --> 01:20:12,200
I think they're going to be able
to score enough points.

1282
01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:16,800
I think Duke is going to be a
little inconsistent on offense

1283
01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:19,600
and probably not have enough on
defense to compensate.

1284
01:20:19,600 --> 01:20:26,300
That's about where I am to 69z
over under total and they're

1285
01:20:26,300 --> 01:20:30,700
saying juice going to score some
points, but not enough points to

1286
01:20:30,700 --> 01:20:32,500
keep with UVA.
And I'm with them.

1287
01:20:32,500 --> 01:20:34,600
I see it.
Probably two touchdown game

1288
01:20:34,600 --> 01:20:39,200
probably somewhere like 4530.
Yeah, you know, somewhere in

1289
01:20:39,200 --> 01:20:39,800
that neighborhood.
Ugh.

1290
01:20:39,800 --> 01:20:41,800
But I'm taking UVA in this one,
too.

1291
01:20:41,800 --> 01:20:44,300
We're essentially saying uva's
offense against Dukes.

1292
01:20:44,300 --> 01:20:48,000
Defense is going to be more
consistent than you call.

1293
01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:49,900
Police offense.
Against UVA is defense even

1294
01:20:49,900 --> 01:20:52,400
though I'll bad.
Evas defense has overall,

1295
01:20:53,600 --> 01:20:57,000
probably the over the over,
would probably be a better than

1296
01:20:57,000 --> 01:20:59,400
this one because both the
defenses aren't good.

1297
01:20:59,400 --> 01:21:04,500
Both the defenses are easily
given up 30 a game on the field,

1298
01:21:05,200 --> 01:21:05,900
right?
Interesting.

1299
01:21:05,900 --> 01:21:07,800
Matchup ranked.
North Carolina.

1300
01:21:07,800 --> 01:21:11,600
State goes up.
To Boston College.

1301
01:21:11,600 --> 01:21:14,200
They are a three-point Road
favorite.

1302
01:21:16,100 --> 01:21:20,300
And in, this is the one I've
just been looking at since I've

1303
01:21:20,300 --> 01:21:24,700
laid these out on Tuesday.
Brian, and I go back and forth

1304
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:30,700
and it is as good as NC state
has played at times this year.

1305
01:21:31,400 --> 01:21:34,100
They've also had some Clunkers
of games.

1306
01:21:35,100 --> 01:21:41,400
And being on the road.
This is going to be a 7:30 night

1307
01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:46,300
kick Boston College four and one
I think I'm going to take the

1308
01:21:46,300 --> 01:21:49,400
home dog here.
I'm going to take BC, I don't

1309
01:21:49,400 --> 01:21:52,100
know if BC wins the game but I
think it's going to be tight

1310
01:21:52,100 --> 01:21:54,700
enough where BC is going to
cover the three.

1311
01:21:56,800 --> 01:22:01,200
So I'm going to take BC 3 All
right, I'm going to make up some

1312
01:22:01,200 --> 01:22:05,200
ground on you here.
I'm going in Sea State and I

1313
01:22:05,200 --> 01:22:07,600
think that's going to be that's
going to be a great environment

1314
01:22:07,800 --> 01:22:12,300
for that game, but I will go
with NC State here.

1315
01:22:12,300 --> 01:22:15,500
I think they've got enough juice
to pull it out.

1316
01:22:16,200 --> 01:22:18,500
Probably just, it's not, it's
going to be close to probably

1317
01:22:18,500 --> 01:22:20,600
gonna be about a touchdown game,
but I think it's more it more

1318
01:22:20,600 --> 01:22:24,900
than the three.
All right, over Underwood's. 52

1319
01:22:24,900 --> 01:22:28,100
on that one.
So if you're right handed in

1320
01:22:28,100 --> 01:22:29,700
your head, all right, there we
go.

1321
01:22:29,700 --> 01:22:37,000
Look at the Two, biggest frauds.
Fraud alert to think is frogs in

1322
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:42,900
the country.
Miami travels to UNC for A330

1323
01:22:42,900 --> 01:22:47,200
kick that somehow is still on
going to be on what mother

1324
01:22:47,200 --> 01:22:49,500
moving to ACC Network.
I thought they were having it on

1325
01:22:49,500 --> 01:22:53,800
ABC, but North Carolina, Lane
seven points on this one.

1326
01:22:53,800 --> 01:22:56,600
Brian.
What do you think between on

1327
01:22:56,600 --> 01:22:59,800
this game?
I'm gonna go UNC and it's solely

1328
01:22:59,800 --> 01:23:03,500
because of the dear King news.
And just, I feel like that's

1329
01:23:03,500 --> 01:23:07,700
going to be deflating for that
team overall.

1330
01:23:07,700 --> 01:23:08,900
I think they're going to come
out a little, huh?

1331
01:23:09,000 --> 01:23:12,900
Dover and UNC is going to be
able to jump on them enough

1332
01:23:12,900 --> 01:23:14,700
early where that's going to
carry throughout the game.

1333
01:23:15,600 --> 01:23:18,500
Yeah, I'm with you.
I think you and see wins this

1334
01:23:18,500 --> 01:23:21,100
game and I think UNC wins this
game, big.

1335
01:23:21,400 --> 01:23:23,700
I don't think this is going to
be like a tight game.

1336
01:23:26,900 --> 01:23:31,500
We saw how Miami at times with
here, King, not on the field has

1337
01:23:31,500 --> 01:23:35,700
struggled to score UVA, took him
a while to get going against one

1338
01:23:35,700 --> 01:23:37,400
of the worst defenses in the
country.

1339
01:23:38,500 --> 01:23:41,100
They pretty much could do
anything against Michigan State.

1340
01:23:41,100 --> 01:23:44,800
They got held under 20 and I
know UNC does not have a great

1341
01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:48,800
defense, but the way Miami's
defense has just basically

1342
01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:53,800
hemorrhaged points all year.
I think this is like a 17-point

1343
01:23:53,800 --> 01:23:58,200
game, I think same house slings
it around, they win like 3821,

1344
01:23:59,000 --> 01:24:02,400
give me Miami or give me um see
on that one.

1345
01:24:02,700 --> 01:24:04,200
All right, Brian, let's go out
of conference.

1346
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:10,400
Kind of a big ranked match up of
the day in the Big 12.

1347
01:24:10,900 --> 01:24:15,000
Take a look at High Noon, Texas
and Oklahoma State at Texas in

1348
01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:20,200
Austin, Texas, Lane five and a
half points after blowing the

1349
01:24:20,700 --> 01:24:24,000
ungodly.
The lead to Oklahoma and Kaleb

1350
01:24:24,000 --> 01:24:28,500
Williams last week.
Where you're on this one man.

1351
01:24:29,600 --> 01:24:34,700
I see this as a Texas hangover
man, I think I think Oklahoma

1352
01:24:34,700 --> 01:24:38,300
state does enough to kind of
shell-shocked them, a little bit

1353
01:24:38,300 --> 01:24:40,600
out, the gate.
I think they come out a little

1354
01:24:40,600 --> 01:24:44,700
flat after last week, and they
probably fight back, but

1355
01:24:44,700 --> 01:24:47,800
probably not enough to bring it,
bring it under that, that five

1356
01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:50,100
and a half.
So I'll take okey State here.

1357
01:24:50,800 --> 01:24:53,100
All right.
I'm kind of with you on that.

1358
01:24:53,100 --> 01:24:56,800
Okey state has played three
scary solid opponents in Boise,

1359
01:24:57,300 --> 01:25:05,300
in Kansas State, and in Baylor,
and they meet the last two by

1360
01:25:05,300 --> 01:25:09,000
double digits.
I don't think the Texas crowds

1361
01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:11,100
going to have that big.
I'm wondering how many people

1362
01:25:11,100 --> 01:25:14,500
even be there especially after
the loss last week and given

1363
01:25:14,500 --> 01:25:18,300
five and a half points.
I think is enough to make that

1364
01:25:18,300 --> 01:25:19,800
cover.
So I'm going to go with you with

1365
01:25:19,800 --> 01:25:25,300
okey state.
And yeah, now let's look at the

1366
01:25:25,300 --> 01:25:28,500
second Big 12 game we've got on
here to Big 12 games, were

1367
01:25:28,600 --> 01:25:32,400
actually looking to, hopefully,
find fun offense where BYU the

1368
01:25:32,400 --> 01:25:38,000
ranked team goes down to Baylor,
and Baylor, the home unranked

1369
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:40,400
team laying six and a half
points.

1370
01:25:41,100 --> 01:25:43,100
We're on this one.
Brian!

1371
01:25:43,100 --> 01:25:47,900
A BYU just a few short weeks ago
was inching towards the top 10

1372
01:25:48,400 --> 01:25:53,800
and after the After the loss to
Boise by nine points.

1373
01:25:53,800 --> 01:25:59,800
In Provo, they somehow stayed in
the top 20 at 19.

1374
01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:06,200
And I like, what Dave Aranda is
got going on at Baylor, really

1375
01:26:06,200 --> 01:26:09,800
good defensive coach, the Okie
State game was close, they lost

1376
01:26:09,800 --> 01:26:12,700
by 10.
Normally, you know, Dundee's

1377
01:26:12,700 --> 01:26:16,700
have it has a solid offense and
I think BYU's going to take

1378
01:26:16,700 --> 01:26:20,900
another loss.
And I think Baby.

1379
01:26:20,900 --> 01:26:22,800
Justin for one day's going to
regret his decision.

1380
01:26:22,800 --> 01:26:30,500
Not leaving but I am Italian.
Give me Baylor, latest, six and

1381
01:26:30,500 --> 01:26:35,000
a half points.
Baylor wins by 7.

1382
01:26:37,500 --> 01:26:42,500
I'm gonna go be why you here.
I think this is this is one of

1383
01:26:42,500 --> 01:26:44,800
the ones I've been kind of
waffling back and forth on, but

1384
01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:46,500
I think this one comes down to
the wire.

1385
01:26:47,100 --> 01:26:50,900
I can see a field goal winning
this game late.

1386
01:26:50,900 --> 01:26:55,100
So I'll take BYU here.
All right, just a few more to

1387
01:26:55,100 --> 01:27:01,500
pick.
Let's go to Cincinnati in the

1388
01:27:01,500 --> 01:27:06,100
Gus Malzahn, UCF.
Golden knights coming to town,

1389
01:27:06,800 --> 01:27:12,600
to face the Cincinnati.
And Have you seen this line yet?

1390
01:27:12,700 --> 01:27:19,300
I'm not sure yeah, but 120 121.
I mean, I like Cincinnati and

1391
01:27:19,300 --> 01:27:20,000
everything.
I think so.

1392
01:27:20,000 --> 01:27:21,100
Now, he's going to win this
game.

1393
01:27:21,100 --> 01:27:25,000
I think 20 once, just way way
too much to play, because

1394
01:27:25,600 --> 01:27:30,000
anything Malzahn, even against
good defense has has been known

1395
01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:35,500
to manufacture points.
Yep, I just think 21 is way way

1396
01:27:35,500 --> 01:27:41,800
too much if it was like 17.
I think I take, I think I take

1397
01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:48,400
Sensi, but three touchdowns Give
me give me UCF in the points.

1398
01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:54,300
I'm gonna go with UCF as well.
I like Cynthia lot, I just think

1399
01:27:54,300 --> 01:27:59,000
that's too much in a game that
matters for both of these teams

1400
01:27:59,000 --> 01:28:04,900
big time in terms of both big
picture and Conference.

1401
01:28:06,100 --> 01:28:09,000
So I'm going to take UCF, I
think they keep it closer than

1402
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:11,200
the 21.
Obviously, I still think it's a

1403
01:28:12,000 --> 01:28:19,400
pretty Start to finish when
force in C but it's not one that

1404
01:28:19,400 --> 01:28:21,500
ever gets out of hand.
Alright.

1405
01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:27,400
Alright, next team we got here.
There is no spread Braun for

1406
01:28:27,400 --> 01:28:33,000
Pac-12 after dark, pick up,
Arizona State and Utah is a

1407
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:37,400
straight pick on that line had
been at like two and one and

1408
01:28:37,400 --> 01:28:40,200
finally got down to a pick them
a little earlier today.

1409
01:28:41,900 --> 01:28:43,500
What do you think on this one?
Brian.

1410
01:28:43,800 --> 01:28:47,700
You're going with the the ranked
team, the rink, Arizona Sun

1411
01:28:47,700 --> 01:28:51,800
Devils at 5 and 1 or the home
team Utah at 3 & 2.

1412
01:28:57,000 --> 01:29:00,100
I kind of I'm leaving Arizona
State but something about going

1413
01:29:00,300 --> 01:29:08,100
going into Utah is giving me
pause so you know you play to

1414
01:29:08,100 --> 01:29:11,600
win the game so I'm going to go
Zone a state-owned Arizona,

1415
01:29:11,600 --> 01:29:19,100
State play to win the game.
All right, well Ron I am going

1416
01:29:19,100 --> 01:29:22,200
to completely flip this on you.
Not so fast.

1417
01:29:22,900 --> 01:29:27,000
Utah's two losses are two,
ranked teams in Off to BYU by 9,

1418
01:29:27,000 --> 01:29:31,400
which we watched that game late.
You have the usually Utah kind

1419
01:29:31,400 --> 01:29:35,200
of pissed it away.
And then, Austin, San Diego

1420
01:29:35,200 --> 01:29:38,400
State out of the Mountain West,
who is ranked 24 and undefeated,

1421
01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:45,900
they lost them by two points.
I really think that Utah.

1422
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:48,100
This is like a game were calling
him.

1423
01:29:48,100 --> 01:29:49,700
It looks like he's going to lose
any wins.

1424
01:29:49,700 --> 01:29:54,100
Every year, they coming off a
blowout, win of USC, and then

1425
01:29:54,100 --> 01:29:56,600
after in a wind, over y Zu, the
week before.

1426
01:29:57,100 --> 01:30:02,200
Give me that home field, give me
Utah straight up.

1427
01:30:02,800 --> 01:30:07,700
All right, all right, back to
the SEC for the last to the

1428
01:30:07,700 --> 01:30:10,700
first one.
As we've all been doing keeping

1429
01:30:10,700 --> 01:30:12,400
an eye on pintle hook.
Tennessee.

1430
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:18,400
He starts the gauntlet for him
to see if the numbers are real

1431
01:30:18,900 --> 01:30:22,500
or if just a competition of what
it was.

1432
01:30:22,500 --> 01:30:27,000
They go play Ole Miss in man,
the first thing I noticed on

1433
01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:29,900
this game.
Brian the over-under, you're

1434
01:30:29,900 --> 01:30:33,500
ready for it.
Shoot the over under this game

1435
01:30:34,000 --> 01:30:37,400
is 82 and a half, okay?
I was gonna say it's somewhere

1436
01:30:37,400 --> 01:30:39,700
around 80 so I was ready to pull
apart-er.

1437
01:30:39,900 --> 01:30:44,700
Have this spread is Is Ole Miss
Lane two and a half points.

1438
01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:48,400
So they're saying this game is
going to be over 40.

1439
01:30:52,300 --> 01:30:56,200
As much as I love hindon.
And as much as I love Tennessee.

1440
01:30:58,900 --> 01:31:02,800
I don't think they're going to
be able to keep up with Kevin's

1441
01:31:02,800 --> 01:31:06,000
offense with Matt Correll.
And that group, I think it's

1442
01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:08,600
competitive.
I'm really think looking at

1443
01:31:08,800 --> 01:31:14,700
Saturday night.
That might be the game to watch

1444
01:31:15,000 --> 01:31:19,100
of all the ranked teams again,
is going to kick it 7:30 and

1445
01:31:19,100 --> 01:31:20,800
it's going to be an absolute
shootout.

1446
01:31:20,800 --> 01:31:27,700
I think Ole Miss wins 52-42.
So I will take Ole Miss and lay

1447
01:31:27,700 --> 01:31:33,000
the two points.
All right.

1448
01:31:33,500 --> 01:31:34,600
We're going to, we're going to
differ here.

1449
01:31:34,600 --> 01:31:35,600
I think.
Tennessee pulls.

1450
01:31:35,600 --> 01:31:39,100
This one out.
I think they have just enough on

1451
01:31:39,100 --> 01:31:44,300
defense to Keep Ole Miss from
completely blowing their doors

1452
01:31:44,300 --> 01:31:45,900
off.
I think in and comes up with a

1453
01:31:45,900 --> 01:31:49,800
little magic late, I think this
is an outright win by Tennessee.

1454
01:31:49,800 --> 01:31:51,300
It's going to come down to the
wire though.

1455
01:31:52,000 --> 01:31:56,600
All right, well, I'm taking the
two with the home team gopala.

1456
01:31:56,600 --> 01:32:03,400
Tennessee moneyline Tennessee.
Put his part of his report of

1457
01:32:03,400 --> 01:32:07,300
your parlay this week.
Alright.

1458
01:32:07,300 --> 01:32:10,200
Yeah.
Alright, last game is Kentucky,

1459
01:32:10,200 --> 01:32:15,100
Georgia, big game of the day,
two ranked teams Kentucky.

1460
01:32:15,100 --> 01:32:19,000
Number one in the country, in
Georgia number of, excuse me.

1461
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:23,400
Kentucky 11 in the country.
Mark, Stoops has Georgia Roland.

1462
01:32:23,400 --> 01:32:26,200
I've told a buddy, my buddy,
Mike and work the other day.

1463
01:32:26,600 --> 01:32:30,100
If Mark, Stoops wants to after
this season ends, you need big.

1464
01:32:30,500 --> 01:32:33,400
Position open.
He could probably go get.

1465
01:32:33,900 --> 01:32:36,500
He's 54 years old.
He's been in the coaching game

1466
01:32:36,500 --> 01:32:38,600
for 30 years.
He seen it all.

1467
01:32:38,900 --> 01:32:43,100
He obviously he's been a
Kentucky.

1468
01:32:43,300 --> 01:32:46,200
Since let me get it.
I think he's been a Kentucky

1469
01:32:46,200 --> 01:32:52,200
since 13.
Yeah, that's Mike Stoops.

1470
01:32:54,800 --> 01:32:57,900
Mark Stoops, he's been a
Kentucky since 13.

1471
01:32:57,900 --> 01:33:02,500
And obviously what he's done in
Kentucky is crazy, he's five

1472
01:33:02,500 --> 01:33:04,600
games over 500 with that
program.

1473
01:33:04,900 --> 01:33:09,100
If they have to be see with some
10-win seasons and 81 seasons.

1474
01:33:11,200 --> 01:33:14,800
And obviously he was with his
brother when they won a national

1475
01:33:14,800 --> 01:33:19,900
title.
I think he can go wherever he

1476
01:33:19,900 --> 01:33:27,700
wants and in this game, Brian,
the line is Georgia laying 23

1477
01:33:27,700 --> 01:33:29,200
points.
What do you say?

1478
01:33:32,200 --> 01:33:38,700
Yeah, I like Georgia a lot.
I don't like them that much and

1479
01:33:38,700 --> 01:33:41,900
I think you know, Kentucky has
played some good football this

1480
01:33:41,900 --> 01:33:46,400
year and as you said consist, I
mean they've been in you know

1481
01:33:46,407 --> 01:33:49,000
say what you will about them
historically but Kentucky since

1482
01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:52,400
2013 since Mark Stoops has been
there has been a better overall

1483
01:33:52,400 --> 01:33:56,200
program that were jigna Tech and
they have it's crazy to say that

1484
01:33:56,200 --> 01:34:00,400
shit but you know it's true and
I just I think they keep it

1485
01:34:00,400 --> 01:34:04,000
closer than The 23 and a half or
was aligned towards anyone

1486
01:34:04,000 --> 01:34:07,600
worried 24, three touchdowns.
Yeah, we'll go.

1487
01:34:08,800 --> 01:34:10,500
I can't, I can't put that much
out there.

1488
01:34:11,200 --> 01:34:14,900
That's way too much and I'm
trying to see if Jay to Daniel's

1489
01:34:14,900 --> 01:34:20,100
is back this week.
Give me a second here.

1490
01:34:22,300 --> 01:34:25,300
I want to just see if maybe this
is what's doing it.

1491
01:34:29,600 --> 01:34:32,100
If you see some brown, I'm
trying to get it here.

1492
01:34:33,500 --> 01:34:36,900
All right, even if he was back I
still couldn't like 24 in his

1493
01:34:36,900 --> 01:34:39,300
first game back.
Give me Kentucky, give me the

1494
01:34:39,500 --> 01:34:45,400
all the points everything
because I think that's just way

1495
01:34:45,400 --> 01:34:48,100
too much Stoops has a good
enough defense, I think you'll

1496
01:34:48,100 --> 01:34:50,100
keep it a grind Fest.
I think Georgia pulls away a

1497
01:34:50,108 --> 01:34:54,700
little late and it's probably
like a 31:14 game but nowhere

1498
01:34:54,700 --> 01:34:57,900
near the 24.
You're talking about Brian

1499
01:34:57,900 --> 01:35:00,800
anything.
Broken over the last hour and a

1500
01:35:00,808 --> 01:35:04,000
half I'm not seeing anything
fun.

1501
01:35:06,500 --> 01:35:08,400
Everything looks pretty, pretty
low-key, man.

1502
01:35:08,800 --> 01:35:10,200
All right, everything's low-key.
All right.

1503
