It's officially Week Nine of the college football season and the Hokies are riding high after a huge primetime victory on Thursday night over Boston College. We Tell the Truth about a game that the Hokies dominated for all but a disastrous 5 minute stretch in the third quarter. We then turn our attention to Georgia Tech as we get to Know the Enemy featuring our friends over at WreckTalk. We wrap as always with our Big Screener picks.

Buddy, it's going to be a fun
night tonight.
9
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,840
We got a few, few guests on and
we're going to lead off with our
10
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,920
first one tonight.
I know everyone has been excited
11
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,680
about the the pyramid.
We've seen all the 1999
12
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,400
comments, that's awesome.
But tonight we're going to have
13
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,000
on the kind of the brainchild
behind this.
14
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,960
It's Taylor and Mel Chrisman
with Press * Packaging and
15
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:32,920
Creative Karting joining us to
talk a little bit more about
16
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:34,000
that.
So let's go ahead and bring them
17
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,960
on here.
Taylor, Mel, how you doing
18
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:38,280
tonight?
Hey, we're good.
19
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,000
How are you guys?
Doing great, doing great.
20
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,440
Thanks for jumping on.
Just to kind of kick it off, you
21
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:46,960
know, I think everyone's excited
about this.
22
00:01:46,960 --> 00:01:49,560
Tell us a little bit about how
this got started and a little
23
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,080
bit of the history of the goal
post and and how this this
24
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:58,520
venture came to be.
Yeah, so I was 12 years old and
25
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,040
we were at that game, a whole
family.
26
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,400
And, you know, we watched the
the goal posts go down and
27
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,680
everyone going crazy.
And my dad just kind of looked
28
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,880
at my mom and he was like, we
got to get that goal post.
29
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,360
We, we got to do something with
it.
30
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:11,920
I don't know what, but we got to
do something with it.
31
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:19,000
And by some crazy stroke of
luck, my dad had a mutual friend
32
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,520
with Frank Beamer.
And they got to talk in And
33
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,320
Frank was like, hey, I got a
piece of it, Bring your truck.
34
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,120
And so my dad went back.
It was about a about a week
35
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,840
later.
And sure enough, there was the
36
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:37,680
18 foot crossbar and they loaded
it up, hauled it out and they
37
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:42,520
got the idea to cut it up into
little one inch squares here and
38
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,120
put it in a little acrylic
pyramid.
39
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,960
So you just, you know, you can
hang it up on your wall and just
40
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:49,720
look at it or whatever you want
to do.
41
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,080
That's awesome.
That's awesome.
42
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,240
And so this is kind of the I
guess the second run of that.
43
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,720
I know you guys did the, the
first run there a little bit
44
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,760
after the game after you came
across the, the goal posts there
45
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:08,520
in 99.
So what was the, the idea like
46
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,600
just 25th anniversary or like
it's, it's time to it's time to,
47
00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:15,160
to, to run it back a little bit
and, and, and see what we can,
48
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,200
can do this go round.
Yeah.
49
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,400
So it is the 25th anniversary of
that undefeated season.
50
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,440
And we know that there's so much
nostalgia kind of building right
51
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,920
now.
We're definitely kind of in a
52
00:03:28,920 --> 00:03:30,880
new era with Virginia Tech
football.
53
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,040
And I think everybody, I mean,
everybody's really been talking
54
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,080
about, you know, it's come up a
lot, the 25th anniversary of the
55
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,000
undefeated season.
So we thought why not
56
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,200
commemorate that and do another
version of the pyramid.
57
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:51,960
So so that was kind of the idea
behind re redoing it or
58
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:57,640
releasing like a whole new set.
Yeah, and it's really cool.
59
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,720
I mean, when you look at it, I
mean, I love the obviously the
60
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,800
celebrating the 25th anniversary
and, and the, and the iconic
61
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,480
iconography in there is really
cool.
62
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,640
And obviously getting the, you
know, the piece of that goal
63
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,080
post is, is, is huge.
And when we look at the fact
64
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:17,880
that I think just in recent, you
know, years here, you know, I
65
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,600
think we've seen the 99 team
celebrated a whole lot more.
66
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,800
You know, you get Michael Vick
back on campus a lot more the
67
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,400
last couple years.
He was there this past Thursday.
68
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,640
So I mean, it's really awesome
to kind of see things come
69
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,320
together, especially considering
that, you know, when we look
70
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:40,200
back at that, that 20th
anniversary, it wasn't quite as
71
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,880
celebrated in the way I think a
lot of fans and, and football
72
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,160
alumni thought it should have
been.
73
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,400
So it, it's it's awesome that
you guys are doing this and kind
74
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:49,680
of bringing some attention to
that.
75
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,000
And I think, you know, just that
whole groundswell about that
76
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,840
team has been been pretty big
this year.
77
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,520
Yeah, absolutely.
Let's ask this, Amel, you said
78
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,880
you were there in 1999 at that
game, obviously, and your dad
79
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,160
was like, let's get the goal
posts.
80
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,040
But obviously if you were there
for that game, you were there
81
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,720
for a lot more.
Taylor, I know you're a big fan
82
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,400
as well.
So go back to 1999.
83
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,320
You're 12 years old.
What was like the game for you?
84
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,120
Was that the game or was there
something else in the season
85
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,520
where it was like this team
special?
86
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,360
And I am.
You're at the age of where like,
87
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:26,920
I'm going to remember this
forever.
88
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:32,200
Yeah, it we, it was actually our
first year having season tickets
89
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,920
was that year my parents knew,
you know, I think the whole, the
90
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,040
whole fan base knew it could be,
could be a pretty special
91
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,960
something, but I don't think
anyone knew exactly what was
92
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,000
coming.
And that was quite a, quite the
93
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,120
year to pick to, to start season
tickets.
94
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:52,120
But you know, you always have
one of those things where
95
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,360
something happens and you no
matter what, you always remember
96
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,800
exactly where you were when it
happened.
97
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,360
And it was the West Virginia
game for us.
98
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,120
It was an away game.
And of all the, the craziness,
99
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,520
we were like, we, we got to get
out, out of the house.
100
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:07,600
Can't watch the game for a
minute.
101
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,920
Let's take a break.
And we were out and my mom was
102
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,760
listening on her her yellow
Walkman headphones right when
103
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,440
when Mike took it down the field
and then Shane hit that field
104
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:18,360
goal.
That was one of those things
105
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,880
that just seared in my mind and
that that did it for me, that
106
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,400
West Virginia game.
I, I feel like everyone has a, a
107
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,200
miracle in Morgantown story,
like everybody, everybody that's
108
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,840
a tech fan remembers what they
were doing, who they were with
109
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:37,240
when that moment happened, just
because of the, the, the stakes
110
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,760
that were at play for what the
Hokies could potentially be that
111
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,800
year.
And I feel like, you know, that
112
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,440
drive kind of encapsulated the,
the, the fighting spirit of, of
113
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,160
that team that year, because
they, not all those games were
114
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,640
pretty right?
Like there were, there were some
115
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,520
blowouts, but not all those
games are pretty.
116
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,680
It was a, it was a, it was a
hard fought game in, in, in that
117
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,840
particular instance.
And you know, like I said, I
118
00:06:58,840 --> 00:07:02,320
think I think all of us hockey
fans remember where we were when
119
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,600
we saw that drive take place.
And funny enough, I was on the
120
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,720
hill at UVA in Charlottesville
because I was playing high
121
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,920
school football at the time and
my head coach was a big UVA fan.
122
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,040
So we were watching UVA, Georgia
Tech.
123
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,200
They're on the hill because he
took, he took all of us for like
124
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:27,200
an end of season trip down there
and they put it up on the
125
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,680
screen.
They put the, the, the West
126
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,000
Virginia Tech game up on the
screen.
127
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,520
And so that all these UVA fans
are like pulling for West
128
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,800
Virginia here.
And there's like a a bunch of us
129
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,440
on our our team that are hokey
fans that just happened to be
130
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,480
there with our coach and we're,
you know, talking trash there on
131
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:47,160
the hill.
And yeah, sweating bullets a
132
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,040
little bit there until the end.
But once, once, once, once it
133
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:51,720
happened.
There was a whole lot of fun
134
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,200
trash talking there on the hill
that day.
135
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,800
Oh yeah.
Tally what you got.
136
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,440
And I'm just sitting back trying
to figure out how I can get my
137
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,000
hands on one of them here me.
It's about paying for it.
138
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,400
I'm trying to figure out how to
do that.
139
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,560
I know some people's been asking
in the some people's been asking
140
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,600
in the in the chat how they can
get it.
141
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,600
Curtis, you want to tell them
how they can get their hands on
142
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,880

166
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:43,960
your entry we're going.
To So pretty simple.
167
00:09:44,560 --> 00:09:48,240
Pretty simple.
I mean, one click, a couple of
168
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,880
clicks, hang out with us, watch
Curtis drink a little beer,
169
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,800
watch Sheldon do some cussing.
You know that's name stuff that
170
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,600
we do all week.
All you got to do is put 1999 in
171
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,280
the chat, subscribe and hang out
with us for a little bit.
172
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,080
And you got your opportunity to
win A to win one of the one of
173
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,880
the pyramids, which is awesome,
man, just to see it, the how
174
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,480
it's made, what it looks like to
have a piece of history in any
175
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:18,080
man cave or woman she shed,
whatever you want to call it.
176
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,360
Just any sports fan would love
to get their hands on it.
177
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,280
And again, if you got it like
that, just go to the website and
178
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,720
buy it, which is probably what I
have to do because I don't think
179
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,200
they're going to rig it for me
to win.
180
00:10:28,560 --> 00:10:32,040
I've tried behind the scenes to
get them to read it for me to
181
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:33,320
win.
So I'm probably just going to
182
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,720
have to go buy it.
Tally you don't have like 3 or 4
183
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:40,000
burners on YouTube.
I, I, I've tried it, I've tried
184
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:40,800
it.
That's the one we're.
185
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,240
Going to get real suspicious if
it wanted burners win.
186
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,120
I see Bama Hokey 69.
I'm not putting that in there.
187
00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:51,320
My problem is I like to talk too
much.
188
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,800
So when I start talking on the,
yeah, when I start talking on
189
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,920
the on the burners is when
people's like, Oh yeah, we
190
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,320
already know that voice.
We know where that is.
191
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,160
So.
Sheldon, you got anything to ask
192
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,560
before?
I've got a couple more questions
193
00:11:04,560 --> 00:11:08,160
I want to ask Mel and Mel and
Taylor here.
194
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,920
No, no, man, I just, I just
think it's great that we're,
195
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,080
we're kind of preserving this,
this piece of history.
196
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,160
I know we did it for the, for
some seats in, in Castle
197
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,960
Coliseum where they they took
some seats out and then they
198
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,880
kind of sold them off.
So I just, I think it's great.
199
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,000
I can't wait until we beat
Clemson in November and then we
200
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:27,640
can tear it on the goal posts
and throw it in the duck pond.
201
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,080
And then 20 years from now,
we'll be we'll be auctioning off
202
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:31,440
pieces from the Clemson goal
post.
203
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,840
So I like it.
I like.
204
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,680
It so so let me ask this right
now, obviously both y'all being
205
00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:42,920
fans and everything.
Any interactions with the
206
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:48,440
current coaching staff and just
where they stand or and also who
207
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,680
is your favorite Hokie?
We we all have different
208
00:11:50,680 --> 00:11:52,560
favorite Hokies on this.
So I'd just love to hear a
209
00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:54,920
little bit more about how you
feel about the new coach staff
210
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,560
plus who you're I random the
double.
211
00:11:59,560 --> 00:12:02,320
Tie in the double tie in by
Robbie there with.
212
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:07,040
Respect.
I'm, I'm a fan of the new
213
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,120
coaching staff still.
I, I think they're the ones that
214
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,120
they're trying and we're, we're
starting to see it.
215
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:18,240
Things are coming together.
They're rounding out like I I
216
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,440
was watching the last week in
the Shelton year breakdown of
217
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,200
how Kyron is getting better and
better, especially through the
218
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,560
intermediate.
Let's go, let's go.
219
00:12:28,680 --> 00:12:30,440
That that summed it up to me,
the.
220
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:31,960
Whole the whole question.
Staff.
221
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:36,200
Summed it up to me that we're,
we're starting to really take
222
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,400
strides to get to where we all
think that we we should be at.
223
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:42,280
So yeah, I'm a fan.
I think.
224
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:44,960
I think we're going in the right
the right direction for sure.
225
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,720
Yeah, that it's exciting.
I think it's exciting time for
226
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:54,360
everybody and I think, you know,
hiccups to to start the year
227
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,760
aside, I think we're starting to
see this team round into what we
228
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,560
thought they could be and, and
hit that level of play that that
229
00:13:01,560 --> 00:13:04,520
we expected.
And it's it's exciting because
230
00:13:04,560 --> 00:13:06,520
you know, we talked about it
before we jumped on here.
231
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,000
I've talked about it with
Sheldon a few times, with Curtis
232
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,600
and Tally a few times.
You know, everything that we
233
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:16,120
still wanted from a beginning of
the year goal is still, you
234
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,080
know, in play and we we just got
to go out there and take care of
235
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,080
business.
So it's, it's exciting and, and
236
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,640
to Sheldon's point, you know,
let's go out and beat Clemson
237
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,240
and have another goal post to
talk about.
238
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,440
Yes, Sir, Can't wait.
Definitely.
239
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,680
Hey, one question I got for you
guys is where where y'all at
240
00:13:33,680 --> 00:13:36,400

242
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:43,000
Oh, so we're in Christiansburg,
VA, So we're like 10 minutes
243
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,320

Oh, wait, like where are we at?
244
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,200
Like located like geography.
I'm just saying like what room

the back.
247
00:13:54,680 --> 00:13:57,920
So I'm trying to see who's got
this, who's got this cool room
248
00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,760
that y'all are sitting in this?
Is our dining room.
249
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,240
Yeah.
We're not pretenders.
250
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:03,600
We are.
We are die hard tech.
251
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:06,680

Oh, they they real.
252
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,200
Hey, you got a wind flag sitting
in the dining room.
253
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,680
Hey, you are winning in life.
That ain't just a flag.
254
00:14:12,680 --> 00:14:14,800
Hey.
Let's let's throw it up there.
255
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,160
Typically we have it in our gym
and it's it's a pretty sick gym
256
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,640
and it's got lots of Virginia
Tech memorabilia in there.
257
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,040
So, you know, inspirational.
There we go.
258
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,640
Very nice and there.
Is Jason likes what he sees,
259
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,560
does like?
What he sees right there, right
260
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,440
there.
So before we just wrap this up
261
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,200
again, we want to again, thank
you all for not only taking a
262
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,520
few minutes out of your evening.
We understand everybody works.
263
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,440
Everybody's got things they've
got to do.
264
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,080
But we also want to say thank
you for like unleashing this
265
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:49,240
back to the Virginia Tech fan
base, giving us the opportunity
266
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:53,880
to give it away.
And I don't know what else to
267
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,040
say.
I'm I'm with Shelton.
268
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,960
It's like that Clemson Yang
needs to be coming.
269
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,480
Take it, take a piece, tuck it
in the duck pong.
270
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,760
Now, Mel and Taylor, I don't
know how y'all are going to get
271
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,400
it, but if that happens, Mel,
you're going to, y'all are going
272
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,960
to have to like go get the truck
that night because I, I don't
273
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,200
think it's going to be sitting
in Lane Stadium or sitting at
274
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,440
the duck pond long.
I don't think so either.
275
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,920
Yeah, you better be.
Camped out, I agree.
276
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,520
And, and, and that'd be too
Curtis's point, just yeah, thank
277
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,520
you for being good stewards of
this piece of memorabilia for
278
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,320
over the years and just, you
know, bringing it back and
279
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,200
giving it back to to the hokey
fans that will take good care of
280
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,600
and cherish it.
No, nobody deserves it more than
281
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,880
the the hokey fan base.
We've been up, we've been down
282
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,400
and there's a lot that have been
there the whole time.
283
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,720
So yeah, fanbase deserves
everything like this I can get.
284
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,200
Yeah.
And honestly, we've had stories
285
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,720
since we released this, like, I
was there.
286
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,240
I really wanted to, like, touch
that goal post.
287
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,400
And, you know, they were like,
too far away or they just
288
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:53,880
weren't kind of like in the
fray.
289
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,200
But we've had people say that
was like, my favorite memory
290
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,840
ever.
And to be able to, like, own a
291
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,800
piece of it is pretty cool.
They can just look at it and
292
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,920
remember, you know, that they
were there.
293
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,880
And I, I do think it's, it's a,
it's such a special moment that
294
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,280
I think a lot of people
remember.
295
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,080
Yeah, I mean, for a lot of
people, it is kind of the
296
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:16,240
pinnacle of, you know, what
hokey football has achieved in
297
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,120
in most of our lifetime.
So I mean, it's really it it
298
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,640
it's absolutely a piece of
history.
299
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,560
And again, just, you know,
thanks for sharing the love
300
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,240
here.
Thank you guys.
301
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:26,640
Yeah.
Thank you guys for what you do.
302
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:27,800
Yeah.
Yep.
303
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,160
We appreciate it guys.
And again, if you want to know
304
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,760
where to get that, go to the
boundary corner website goal
305
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,560
post pyramid if you just want to
purchase 1 outright and then
306
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,360
flaunt it to those who don't
win.
307
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,000
And like listen, I just bucked
up the money and just paid for
308
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,360
it 19990.
And again, if you want to see it
309
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,160
just so y'all can see how
passionate it is, we are like
310
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,520
when we start this, we just get
flooded with 90 nines out of
311
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,080
everywhere.
So it's pretty sweet.
312
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,360
And again, we appreciate y'all
partnering up with us on this
313
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:01,200
and hopefully in the very near
future we can all catch you,
314
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,440
catch up with each other down in
Blacksburg at Lane Stadium, we'd
315
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:05,920
love.
That.
316
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,040
Awesome, well y'all take care
and y'all have a good evening.
317
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:10,000
Thank you.
Thanks.
318
00:17:10,079 --> 00:17:11,200
Guys.
See y'all.
319
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,520
Thank y'all.
So cool.
320
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,079
It's just so cool.
I mean, there's no more another
321
00:17:18,079 --> 00:17:20,280
way to say it.
It's just cool to know that is
322
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,000
there.
Tally, just tell your wife
323
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:24,920
that's what you want for
Christmas.
324
00:17:25,079 --> 00:17:28,240
She'll get it for you and you
know.
325
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,360
You can put it right over your
shoulder there next to the
326
00:17:30,360 --> 00:17:31,520
bottle of liquor.
Right there.
327
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,600
Yeah, we see.
It and that's a good I think
328
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,040
that's a good place for it I
think that's a good place for it
329
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,680
yeah I got a couple of spots I
think I can I can I can put it
330
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:43,560
up in it around the house so I
mean 'cause that actually looks
331
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,520
a little bit elegant you know
what I'm saying 'cause you got
332
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,800
the nice glass to go on it it
doesn't look like a mini helmet
333
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,160
you know what I'm saying like a
lot of the stuff that I have
334
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:53,640
but.
Hey don't don't trash the mini
335
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,080
helmets.
Though I love mini helmets
336
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:56,720
though.
I got plenty man, I love mini.
337
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,840
He's just saying he can put that
in the living room and.
338
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,000
Wait, I can put that in the
living room, man, I can put that
339
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,320
like right on the mantle or.
Something it's pretty all right.
340
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,800
Well, boys, we got a lot to
break down tonight.
341
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,880
We are going to be talking with
a special guest from the rec
342
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,920
tech, right?
I get that right.
343
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,400
Rick talk, Rick.
Talk.
344
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,680
I can't spell the nightmare.
Talk with Know the enemy.
345
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:20,840
What?
What?
346
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,600
Kind of shirt you got on, man.
Y'all know what I got on?
347
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,000
So in case y'all were wondering
and y'all paid attention way
348
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,680
back in May, we asked Coach Pry.
Well.
349
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,000
Tally asked on behalf of
everybody.
350
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,120
Coach, we love the shirts.
Can you send them to us?
351
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:40,560
And y'all, they didn't, they
didn't they didn't skimp on it.
352
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,080
They sent all of us the hunger
drills shirts I had to wear.
353
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,120
It's now the perfect time of
year for this shirt.
354
00:18:46,120 --> 00:18:48,520
It's nice light.
It's a perfect for a fall night.
355
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,840
I had to bring it out tonight.
I mean, it's just a sick shirt,
356
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,080
so.
Curtis, you're getting called
357
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,600
out already, man.
Sorry, sorry Rex.
358
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,640
Sorry man, I completely spelled
it wrong in a rundown.
359
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,520
I'm very sorry.
So you can you can land basement
360
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,200
when you get in here.
So don't worry, Curtis messes up
361
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,520
names all the time.
Oh yeah, don't take it all.
362
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,960
Righty well, we got that later
on, but let's start with Tell
363
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,440
the Truth Tuesday with a massive
victory of the BC 4221 on
364
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,960
Thursday night and I'm going to
go through here real quick on
365
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:25,400
some things we said.
First of all, Shelton Moss said.
366
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,120
We have to embrace Thursday
night.
367
00:19:28,120 --> 00:19:32,120
Shelton did this team, the
coaching staff and the fans
368
00:19:32,120 --> 00:19:35,640
embrace Thursday night.
Absolutely one of the most
369
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,720
historic rushing performances
we've ever seen from Mahokey,
370
00:19:39,120 --> 00:19:41,600
with Bashawk Tooten setting the
single game record-breaking
371
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:46,000
Darren Darren Edmonton's record
APR with another 4 sack banger
372
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,680
put up 42 points.
You know, you give up, I mean
373
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,320
you give up three turnovers and
still win by 21.
374
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,760
I mean that's, you know, that's
about all you can ask for.
375
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,440
And we took the the all time
lead and most wins on Thursday
376
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,880
night with our 25th win since
1994, more than any other team
377
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:03,720
in the country.
So back in sole possession of
378
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,240
Thursday night.
So it is officially our nights
379
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:07,800
and nobody else's.
There we go.
380
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,280
We embraced it.
Jonathan Talley, you said we
381
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,040
needed to limit Tommy
Castellanos legs.
382
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,840
Did we limit that man's legs?
Yeah, we turned Castellanos into
383
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,000
a castaway.
He was out of him.
384
00:20:20,360 --> 00:20:23,920
He was cast off fumbling the
ball.
385
00:20:24,120 --> 00:20:27,480
I don't know if he's still hurt.
I mean, I hope nobody's hurt,
386
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,520
but you know, fumbling the ball,
seeing ghosts getting hit,
387
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,880
chasing him around, APR on his
head like a toupee.
388
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,680
I mean, it was a good night.
In his face, on the sideline.
389
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,080
It was a good night, man.
It was just, I mean, you seen a
390
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,120
lot of great performances.
But again, back to what Curtis
391
00:20:46,120 --> 00:20:50,080
said, talking about my key to
performance was limit his, limit
392
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,920
his legs, and I think he may
have had like 58 yards on 20
393
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,360
carries.
So I'll take that, you know.
394
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,680
I'll take that as long as it was
18.
395
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,720
So you do the math.
It's even worse after that.
396
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:04,920
Brian Siegler, you said get off
the field on money downs and I
397
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,080
think we did that pretty good.
Yeah, especially in the first
398
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,280
half, I think they only had two
conversions in the first half.
399
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:16,360
Really good job overall from for
throughout the game they're
400
00:21:16,360 --> 00:21:20,160
getting off on money downs and
to that point, a lot of getting
401
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,840
off the field on money downs is
Tally's point there of limit
402
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,360
what Castellanos does with his
legs.
403
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:29,120
He was not scrambling that well.
We did a good job of containing
404
00:21:29,120 --> 00:21:30,680
them, keeping in the pocket,
getting them down.
405
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,080
We needed to and the, you know,
the results speak for
406
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:39,080
themselves, I think. 100% and
mine was just finish, finish,
407
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,600
finish, finish.
We talked about BC allowing Sax
408
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:48,760
and APR 8 all night, 4 sacks,
his 3rd 4th sack game of his
409
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,600
career here at Virginia Tech 2
this season.
410
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,280
And then in the offensive side
of the ball, touchdowns, not
411
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:55,840
field goals.
You know how many times we went
412
00:21:55,840 --> 00:22:01,520
in the red zone Thursday night?
How many how many times 4 did we
413
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:06,160
kick any field goals?
Nope, 4 touchdowns.
414
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,680
And as we talked about it,
though, they were not a shabby
415
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,960
red zone defense.
They had only given up five
416
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,000
touchdowns all season in the red
zone.
417
00:22:15,120 --> 00:22:17,200
We damn near got to that number
Thursday night.
418
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:21,160
So we told the truth about what
our keys were and we talked
419
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,080
about what went well.
Sheldon already hit it up
420
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:28,840
Tooting breaking the Rush game
record 18 carries for 266.
421
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,840
Insane that.
Is sick.
422
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,280
I'm telling you, but that's what
I'll say.
423
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,400
I think we talked about this a
couple of weeks ago and I was
424
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,400
like, or even I can't remember
if we talked about it on here.
425
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,800
We posted on Twitter some, some
happened, but we talked about
426
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,240
getting him the ball more.
I mean, since the beginning of
427
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,480
the year, getting him the ball,
letting him fill the game.
428
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,560
Like the offense has to go
through him.
429
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,640
And it looked like they decided
that, OK, that's what we need to
430
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,120
do.
Let's, let's get the ball in our
431
00:22:56,120 --> 00:22:59,960
playmaker's hands.
And he, he showed up and showed
432
00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:01,680
out.
And again, you know, like I
433
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:05,920
said, for whatever reason, some
people were saying, well, it's
434
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,880
BC.
Well, I remember at the
435
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,880
beginning of the season, people
tab BC to be the ACC winners
436
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,520
after they beat Florida State.
And you know, they were, I mean,
437
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,200
they took Missouri to the to
the, to the brink of a, a win.
438
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,000
And people thought, Oh, they're
going to kill us.
439
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,640
And then once we beat them, it's
like, oh, it's BC.
440
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,320
No, that's a good team.
You know, they had, they had to,
441
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:30,040
they had the sack leader on
their team or he was tied for
442
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,560
second when we played them.
But again, we showed up and
443
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,120
showed out so and we did it in
orange.
444
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:37,280
Go ahead.
Hey.
445
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,320
Orange he looked quicker without
the brace.
446
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,760
Hey Sheldon, though, we we got
to give Tootin a lot of credit.
447
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:49,200
But you've been saying all year
about the offensive line and and
448
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,000
you and you dug up the stat
earlier.
449
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,000
I think actually a couple days
ago is when I asked you about it
450
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:58,440
and y'all if, if, if what
sheldon's about to tell you
451
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,920
continues to happen.
The Sky's the limit for Basil
452
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,760
Tootin this year.
So typically what what I like to
453
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,880
do to evaluate offensive line
play is look at the percentage
454
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,800
of yards before and after
contact, just to see how you
455
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,640
know how how far it is up field
that a running back can get
456
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,200
before it gets touched by a
defender.
457
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,960
So, you know, coming to the
game, Tech was not very good at
458
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,720
yards before contact per rush.
I think they were 108th, if I'm
459
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,760
not mistaken in the country.
And so, but that totally turned
460
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,640
around against BC.
So against the Eagles, 6060% of
461
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,040
text rushing guards on designed
attempts came before contact.
462
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,720
That was by far the highest
percent percentage of the
463
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,680
season.
It was like 25% above their next
464
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,520
best performance and on a per
rush average is about 5.7.
465
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,040
So, you know, we saw on Tune's
80 yard touchdown run in the
466
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,640
second quarter, he was not
touched at all.
467
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,800
I mean, the only time he got
touched was, you know, when he
468
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:54,720
was in the end zone and that
that, you know, that the
469
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,240
defender was trailing after him
trying to swipe the ball away.
470
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,120
But I just, I thought that Olin
did a great job blocking and I
471
00:25:00,120 --> 00:25:03,320
felt like it was the first time
all year where Tune was able to
472
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,120
get to the second level on such
a consistent basis.
473
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,720
And once he's at the second
level, man, like it's a wrap.
474
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,240
Like he can, he can make you
miss, you know, he can just, you
475
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,120
know, run, run right around you.
Like he's a tough guy to stop
476
00:25:14,120 --> 00:25:16,600
once he once he gets past that,
that first level.
477
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,920
So I thought it was by far the
best performance of the season
478
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,920
for the online.
It wasn't like tune carrying
479
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,280
their show.
It was a complete team
480
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,360
performance.
Guys are making their blocks.
481
00:25:25,360 --> 00:25:28,240
The Moore brothers were awesome.
Xavier Chaplin had another
482
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,520
awesome performance.
I highlighted him on Twitter.
483
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,560
Just all around fantastic
performance in terms of
484
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,960
blocking.
If you can get Shelton.
485
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:40,800
If you can get Shelton to make a
highlight tape for a offensive
486
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:45,720
lineman, he doing so that
offensive lineman is doing some
487
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,640
work.
But I've seen Curtis, I didn't
488
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,080
mean to cut you off.
I've seen Steven put a put a a
489
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,000
post up and said, you know, both
of those big runs were on
490
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,280
chaplain's side.
Got to go back and watch that
491
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:02,080
tape because get to know 79
Johnny Garrett on one of those
492
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,640
big runs, he was the one who
wrapped in the hole and and
493
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:09,760
cleared cleared the trash.
So Chaplin's doing an awesome
494
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,960
job, but we also got some young
lineman that have stepped up and
495
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:14,800
started doing their jobs as
well.
496
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,200
So Garrett definitely made that
big run happen.
497
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:20,760
Johnny Garrett got about 20
snaps.
498
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:22,840
Brody Meadows got about 20
snaps.
499
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,880
We're seeing it build for next
year.
500
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,200
And Sheldon, I think you might
have tweeted this out of Brian.
501
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,720
Maybe you did.
Chaplin was the PFFO lineman
502
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:36,720
again this week, like the entire
country, the highest graded guy
503
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,200
all week.
Chaplain is just coming to his
504
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,040
own.
And Sheldon, what you deal with
505
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,480
that tape like watch him against
Donovan.
506
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,400
Donovan is an elite pass rusher
in college and that's who it was
507
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,760
against he he held him at Bay
the whole game.
508
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,840
Held him at Bay the whole game.
Brian, let me ask you real
509
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:58,280
quick, because Sheldon mentioned
it already, who did the BC
510
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,360
offensive line not hold at Bay
the whole game?
511
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,400
That would be Mr. APR.
I mean.
512
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:10,200
Antoine Powell Ryland had
himself a game, you know, went
513
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:14,720
from, you know, started the week
fifth in the country in Sachs,
514
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,680
finished the weekend even after
everybody else played number one
515
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:22,960
in the country in Sachs and just
had a hell of a game across the
516
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,240
board.
You know, had had that fumble
517
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:30,360
recovery stats from from
Castellanos there, had some
518
00:27:30,360 --> 00:27:33,920
other key tackles, couple other
tackle for loss.
519
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,480
So he went out there and just
wrecked shot for four quarters
520
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,400
and it was really impressive to
watch.
521
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,880
And you know, when we talked
about top performances in that
522
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,840
game, there were a lot of them,
you know, from Kyron being
523
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,760
pretty much perfect in the first
half, throwing the football what
524
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,000
Toon did on 2 long runs and
being consistent between the
525
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,800
tackles all night.
And then you look on the other
526
00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:04,080
side, APR second game with four
sacks this year and just had had
527
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,240
Tommy Castellanos in hell for
four quarters.
528
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,400
Had that offensive line in hell
for four quarters and I'm
529
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:13,360
sitting here Brian, as you were
watching that game and and, and,
530
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,400
and if y'all over here, Brian
and Tally talk about when they
531
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,600
watch the game, they don't watch
the outside, they watch in the
532
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,400
middle of the field.
They watch the line play.
533
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,000
They all know how y'all do that.
Trained eyes I guess.
534
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,880
But Brian, when you were
watching APR like as your
535
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,120
offensive lineman brain was
working, did at any point you
536
00:28:30,120 --> 00:28:33,000
say, yeah, I don't think they
can stop him.
537
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,280
Like I don't think they're going
to have an answer unless they
538
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:39,040
start like basically giving all
the support to that side.
539
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,040
Well-being they were given
support to that side.
540
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,680
I mean, several times that he
got to the quarterback, he got
541
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,320
chipped by running back or you
got chipped by a tight end.
542
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:51,160
Like they weren't ignoring him
and he was still getting there.
543
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,800
And I think that's, that's the
thing that's most impressive.
544
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,160
I think you got to give a little
bit of credit to the secondary
545
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,720
as well, because it does, you
know, you got to be able to hold
546
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,960
up quick in that, in that
coverage for sacks to get home.
547
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:07,360
But they were able to do that
and APR was just tearing them up
548
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,160
all night.
It was, it was lovely.
549
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,360
It's like a officer lineman.
Most of the time when you look
550
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:17,160
across the line from you, you
expect the guy to look a certain
551
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:18,720
way that's going to do certain
things.
552
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,520
APR is kind of a tweener with
his size.
553
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,960
When you look at him, you don't
expect him to have, you know,
554
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,800
maybe elite quickness that he
does when he's getting around
555
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,840
people.
But he's not like a super big
556
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,760
guy.
So when I say super big, I mean,
557
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,600
you know, tall 6566 anywhere
around that.
558
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,280
So you don't feel like, you
know, he's going to bend as much
559
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,280
as he is.
You know, I'm saying like he has
560
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,840
like tremendous bend when he's
coming around the around the
561
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:49,360
corner and he's really, really
quick to be, you know, kind of
562
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:53,240
that that stocky size.
He's not one of those tall lean
563
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:54,120
people, you know what I'm
saying?
564
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,560
He's got some girth to him.
So I think sometimes it even
565
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,640
when you watch it on tape and
then when you line up across
566
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,760
from somebody, you look at them
like, OK, I should be able to do
567
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,240
this or they shouldn't be able
to bull rush me.
568
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,520
But he's got some things.
And again, I got to go back to
569
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,920
what JC has been able to do.
He's pulled some different some
570
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,800
different tricks out of his hat
that shows that he does have
571
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,640
pass rush moves.
It's not just a bull rusher.
572
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,480
He's not just a speed rusher
like he sometimes has to, you
573
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,960
know, use a jab step or
different things like that.
574
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,520
And I don't think that it's no
thanks to him when you sacked
575
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,160
somebody four times in one game,
multiple times.
576
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:35,280
I mean, you're doing some work.
So he's he's getting some moves
577
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:39,040
that I guess people kind of
shortchanged him for when he was
578
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:40,960
at Florida.
But thank you Florida.
579
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:46,440
Y'all didn't deserve it.
I saw the stat, he's like at
580
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,000
what, like about 21 sacks since
he became a hokey and I think it
581
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,800
as a combined team they have 38.
Yeah.
582
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,680
Since that time frame.
So, yeah, he's facing crazy.
583
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,760
He's facing big time.
All right, so there's all the
584
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,000
stuff that went well.
And that was pretty much 55
585
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,680
minutes of the game.
But I'm a I'm a realist here.
586
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,640
What went bad was that 5 minutes
in the third quarter.
587
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,640
And I mean, OK, first of all,
them come out of halftime
588
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,760
putting a basically putting a
drive together.
589
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,520
That's not shocking.
That's not shocking, right?
590
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,400
Not to a lot of people,
especially somebody like Bill
591
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,280
O'Brien who has coached a long
time.
592
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,000
He made some adjustments, right?
And they moved down.
593
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,480
It was the next few minutes with
just some really out of
594
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:33,840
character things from the team
and, and I know I have been at
595
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,320
baseball.
So I'm like following this thing
596
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,320
on my phone like this is over.
I go down to my neighbor's house
597
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,640
down the street here where Brian
and Sheldon have both been.
598
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,600
They got the fire pit going
watching the game.
599
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:50,600
And I sit down, pour Sagamore,
pour nice Sagamore whiskey and
600
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,680
all that crap happens and I'm
like, you gotta be kidding.
601
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,240
Am I going to have to like
leave?
602
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,000
Where were you?
Where was y'all's mentality at
603
00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,400
Sheldon?
You were there.
604
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,840
Where was your mentality when
that happened?
605
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:05,040
Because I mean, the place is
buzzing, it's electric.
606
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,120
And then 5 minutes like that
happened.
607
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:11,800
I was pretty chill honestly.
Like I know people kind of
608
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,000
flipped out about that, but like
it was, it was 2 dumb turnovers.
609
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,920
I mean, we gave them
essentially, you know, 40 total
610
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,200
yards of field position to work
with.
611
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,400
Like, you know, it's not like I
don't think the defense fell
612
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:22,680
apart.
I just think, you know, you had
613
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,840
a couple critical turnovers and
you know, once they once they
614
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,760
got past that, they went right
back in the field, scored a
615
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,240
touchdown, they got the big stop
1/4 down and then boom, that was
616
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,000
it.
So I think I think for me, you
617
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,880
know, I trusted the way they
played in the first half.
618
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,920
I think, you know, if you're if
you're a dominant scrimmage and
619
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:39,960
you know, you're moving the ball
downfield consistently, I think
620
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,720
you know, you know, eventually
the you know, the process will
621
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,360
will pay off, so to speak.
So, you know, just a couple big
622
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,160
mistakes there.
It's kind of really all there
623
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:48,440
was to it.
But I was I was honestly never
624
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:53,640
really worried that much Cali.
I was all right until Curtis got
625
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:59,040
back in the chat like ramp my
anxiety up and I I had to put
626
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,480
the phone on on charge and stop
looking at it if.
627
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:05,640
If y'all don't know about Curt
so I'm going to share this real
628
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,960
quick before I let you finish
tally, but go ahead.
629
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,920
All right, so our buddy Pete B
likes to live tweet during
630
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:15,120
games.
Curtis is basically Pete B that
631
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:19,040
doesn't live tweet during games.
Curtis does it.
632
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,960
It's it's very high and low.
It's very high and low.
633
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:25,760
It's an emotional roller coaster
and depending on where you are
634
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,280
at the time is going to depend
on what type of Curtis you get.
635
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,840
Yeah, Curtis is Curtis was he
was on one in the in the shout
636
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,640
out people.
Sheldon was kind of still
637
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,800
Sheldon.
You know, he's what he's saying
638
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:43,400
most of the time, like whatever
is what he does, he's just kind
639
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:45,560
of, I told you all, we're better
than them, we're going to win.
640
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,400
And I'm like, well, Curtis ain't
saying we're going to win.
641
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,920
So I'm kind of leaning Curtis's
way because I'm watching the
642
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,200
game as well.
But yeah, no, it was fun though,
643
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:57,640
man.
And like you said, we went
644
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:02,160
through that stretch and it was
just kind of like, let me see,
645
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:05,000
actually, I had, I had to do
something with my son.
646
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,200
I had to get him.
And I ended up taking him to go
647
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,880
get something to eat and we
leave to go grab him something
648
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:12,480
to eat.
And I come back and it's like,
649
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,679
what's happened?
It's like a different team, you
650
00:34:15,679 --> 00:34:17,639
know?
And then we give them, you know,
651
00:34:17,639 --> 00:34:20,320
2 turnovers and next thing you
know, it's like, oh Lord, here
652
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:24,040
we go again.
But we overcame.
653
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,280
So I was all right with that.
Yeah.
654
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,159
To, to me, it kind of, I think
it kind of started a little bit
655
00:34:30,159 --> 00:34:37,080
with the, the, the Colin Schlee
call there on that drive opening
656
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,600
the second-half.
I feel like that kind of fiddled
657
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,239
with our mojo a little bit.
Then we had another, I think
658
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,080
drop on that, on that series
that ultimately we ended up
659
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:49,639
getting off the field punting
and then they drove down and,
660
00:34:49,679 --> 00:34:51,520
and, and did their thing on that
first drive.
661
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,360
And, you know, then you have a
couple mistakes.
662
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,920
The next thing you know, 4
scores becomes one score and
663
00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:00,920
you're sweating a little bit.
To Sheldon's point, I never got
664
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:05,560
worried, but I was definitely
like, this is not going to be as
665
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:07,760
pretty as it should be now
because of this was these are
666
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,360
these are mistakes that you
can't make.
667
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,760
But at the same time, like I
wasn't, I'd seen what we had
668
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,200
done in the first half.
I thought that if we could just
669
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,120
stop the bleeding it it was
going to be fine because we've
670
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,640
shown that we can handle them at
the line of scrimmage.
671
00:35:22,240 --> 00:35:24,720
Well, I.
Won't give all of I won't give
672
00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:28,360
all of the family secrets away,
but I want to read some of the
673
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:33,520
the live messages from Curtis
during the game we had.
674
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:39,040
Y'all I'm about to leave.
This isn't cool y'all.
675
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:43,680
This is stupid.
That's all in the course of
676
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:44,960
about two minutes right there,
though.
677
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,920
I mean it was only 5 minutes.
Yeah, I know it was.
678
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,160
Probably 12 minutes total time,
5 minutes runtime.
679
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:52,840
Tally, I think it's somewhere in
that chain.
680
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:56,840
I literally told you, Tally, I
have to do this here so I can be
681
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:01,160
somewhat calm in somewhat here
on Tuesday nights.
682
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,240
Oh, we're curse was in there
somewhere.
683
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,600
Oh yeah, we're curse always
coming up.
684
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,720
That's always coming up.
Anytime we do something, we're
685
00:36:07,720 --> 00:36:08,920
cursed.
I think Tally might have froze
686
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:10,800
on us.
I think Tally did freeze on us.
687
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,120
He's probably reading the really
bad ones right now.
688
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,480
But you know what?
That's a that's a stylish pose.
689
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:17,720
At first I thought he was like
building suspense.
690
00:36:17,720 --> 00:36:18,680
Oh yeah.
And he was going to look.
691
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,080
Up.
And then he gets.
692
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,720
Moved for 30 seconds.
I'm like, not so much.
693
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,360
Can I say this, though, about
the coaching staff in this team
694
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,520
and these players?
So we've been down numerous
695
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,560
times this year, go back to
Vandy and Rutgers.
696
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:36,440
We've had bad things happen like
the ODU game.
697
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,800
The one thing I think this
coaching staff has instilled and
698
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,600
even goes back to last year's
resiliency amongst the team
699
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,200
because you don't see them.
They're like Shelton, something
700
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,200
bad happens.
They don't panic, they aren't
701
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,200
losing their minds, they aren't
going around doing dumb shit.
702
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:57,960
So effectively that happened and
then we just calm down and about
703
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:02,480
5 minutes later we stopped them
on 4th down touchdown.
704
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,320
We stopped them again, three and
out touchdown.
705
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:11,680
So the reality is, I hate it.
I have to get it out.
706
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,280
If I don't get it out, I would
lose my mind here on every
707
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:16,080
Tuesday night.
I don't think that would be much
708
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:21,080
fun for watching, but when bad
things happen, this team and
709
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:22,720
this coaching staff does not
panic.
710
00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:26,880
And we've now seen that in
numerous examples in the last
711
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,200
year.
Plus, you got one more good one
712
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,480
right there.
Yeah, one more good one.
713
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,840
Or did you put it away?
Huh.
714
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:35,960
Are you talking to me?
Yeah.
715
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,560
Oh no it was just it was just a
week cursed and then we cursed
716
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:46,400
laugh out loud after we scored.
So no, we cursed and then we
717
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:53,160
still cursed left.
The the funniest, the funniest 1
718
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,760
was Tally responding.
They cursed too then and then
719
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:00,360
and that was after the I think
that last turnover they had.
720
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,120
You got to love it, got to love
it.
721
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,480
All right, Just a couple more
things as we close out To Tell
722
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:09,000
the truth segment, I think I was
not prepared for no field goals.
723
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:11,800
I expected them to stop us at
least once.
724
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:16,240
I expected someone to kick.
Somebody kick no field goals.
725
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,600
Can you make a bet on that on
the betting side?
726
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,120
So I believe there will be no
field goals kicked in this game.
727
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,640
Well, they tried.
Oh, that's they, I think they
728
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,920
tried to run a trick play there.
Yeah, because they were, because
729
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,880
that guy was moving from the
field, like I think they were
730
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,320
trying to run a trick play and
it just when he bobbled it, they
731
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:37,400
were fucked.
So can we just say this too as
732
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:38,920
we move on?
We got because we do want to hit
733
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:45,520
a little something, the version
of this team since Rutgers, they
734
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,880
just got to keep being it and
they've got to keep improving
735
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:52,240
because this team that keeps
showing up statistically,
736
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:58,080
mentally, physically again, I,
I, I think they can stand toe to
737
00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:59,840
toe with a lot of good teams in
the country.
738
00:39:01,720 --> 00:39:03,280
No, I agree.
I agree.
739
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,320
You're right on, right on point
with what you're saying with
740
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,080
that, You know what I'm saying?
Just what needs to happen moving
741
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,080
forward is just, you know, I
think we're going to touch over
742
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:13,720
a little bit later too.
Just continue like feeding into
743
00:39:13,720 --> 00:39:17,720
your identity, you know, like
you're seven games in.
744
00:39:17,720 --> 00:39:20,000
You know what you can do and you
know what you can't do?
745
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,600
Feed into that.
Yep, I think that's that's been
746
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,400
the big thing for us is that,
you know, what we've seen since
747
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,920
the start of conference play has
been a team with an identity on
748
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:35,000
both sides of the football, a
team that has been playing, you
749
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:41,840
know, 111 moment or here aside,
I think a lot better as a unit.
750
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:45,240
And I'm thinking not just the
team itself, but also the way
751
00:39:45,240 --> 00:39:48,320
the coaching staff has been
during the games.
752
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,960
I think I think they've called a
better game from a coordinator
753
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:53,720
standpoint.
I think Brent Pry has been
754
00:39:53,720 --> 00:39:57,320
better from a game management
standpoint in that same time
755
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,920
stretch as well.
So we have an identity now.
756
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,000
It's just.
About keeping it consistent and
757
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,440
putting that best product out
every week because we know what
758
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,200
the ceiling looks like now,
we've seen it.
759
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,680
We just got to be consistent
with it going forward.
760
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,960
So you get anything to add on
top of that, anything you got to
761
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,440
say we got to keep doing better
moving forward.
762
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,080
I think we've been bringing it
up pretty well and you know, we
763
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,360
can talk about this a little bit
more depth later on, but I think
764
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,280
I think Bowen has added some
some complexity to the run game,
765
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,160
kind of building off some of
that base off they've been doing
766
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:32,360
with like split zone, for
instance.
767
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:35,720
So you know, the rushing numbers
continue to get better.
768
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,320
I think as the offense
progresses, the online gets
769
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:41,680
better, you know that there's
more synchronization, I guess.
770
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,040
So I just, I, I really like the
way the office is going kind of
771
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:49,240
set up by the run game and also
drones to getting more polished
772
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:51,000
as a passer.
Yeah.
773
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,480
And I know we've talked about it
a couple weeks now and I've
774
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,400
talked about it with Sheldon
some off air, like what Bowen's
775
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,320
doing with motion in the run
game in the past.
776
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:03,280
Game is a lot more complex and
kind of what I expected from
777
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:05,360
this offense kind of the start
of the year.
778
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,800
I know you got to you got to,
you know, you got to layer some
779
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:10,560
of that in.
You can't come out week 1
780
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,400
gangbusters show your whole
playbook.
781
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:18,080
But what they've been doing with
motion has been really clever to
782
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:23,960
getting guys into one-on-one
situations in the passing game
783
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,560
and also to kind of get the
linebackers eyes where they
784
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:32,200
shouldn't be in the run game.
All righty, so real quick as we
785
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,800
we we get a cap on that right
now with Tell the Truth Tuesday.
786
00:41:36,240 --> 00:41:39,920
We do want to discuss this.
There was a commitment earlier
787
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,720
this week and it's another
legacy commitment.
788
00:41:42,720 --> 00:41:47,360
Brennan Johnson, Big Brother on
the team, dad a legend, coach
789
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:51,640
Lauren Johnson's son, 6 foot 190
LB linebacker out of Highland
790
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:55,960
Springs, a three star 87 on 247
composite.
791
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:58,960
I don't think anybody was
shocked by this.
792
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,680
I think the timing was when it's
going to happen.
793
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:06,200
But Brian Talley, I don't know
if y'all had a chance to see
794
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,480
tape or film on Brennan.
A lot of people say he's better
795
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,880
than his brother.
A lot of people say he's a dog
796
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:15,160
and linebacker.
Yeah, he just, when I've watched
797
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:18,000
him the last couple of years,
he's moved around to a couple of
798
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,280
different spots.
I didn't really know what he'd
799
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:25,240
project to play in college just
because of kind of the different
800
00:42:25,240 --> 00:42:28,840
things he's done in high school.
But very, very solid player.
801
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:32,480
I know last year or maybe two
years ago, you know, when they
802
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:36,200
talked about him when Braylon
was still in high school, they
803
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:39,600
talked about, you know, Brandon
a little bit more, just the
804
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,000
things that he was able to do on
the team.
805
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,040
So I know some at that time,
some they were talking about him
806
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:49,800
getting a lot more looks than I
guess what he's really paid
807
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,400
attention to or that he's fed
into, you know, moving into a
808
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:57,600
senior year.
So was it really a surprise to
809
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,440
see him commit?
But like you said, kind of
810
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:03,000
timing was OK.
When is it going to happen?
811
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:06,080
Because you can't really lose,
you know, that type of recruit
812
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:08,600
because you know what happens
when we lose that type of
813
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,640
recruit?
They go somewhere else and we
814
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:14,320
see their name and lights all
the time or they come back to
815
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:17,920
lane and or we play them and
they end up killing us for 2-3
816
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:19,920
years.
So good to see him.
817
00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:25,880
It's good to see him commit.
Showing anything on Vernon
818
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:26,440
Johnson?
Nope.
819
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:29,880
I.
See.
820
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:31,520
Nothing.
All he's asked.
821
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,440
All he's asked.
I know you're not recruiting
822
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:35,720
like you once were.
All right, Tally, you said you
823
00:43:35,720 --> 00:43:38,680
wanted to bring something up
real quick before we get over to
824
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,920
know the enemy.
Yeah, just because we got, you
825
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:43,880
know, got another Virginia
recruit.
826
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,480
So of course you're looking at,
I mean, recruiting's kind of
827
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,800
been been LAX for us lately.
You know, we kind of had some
828
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,080
people already in the boat, so
not really been paying
829
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:55,480
attention.
But of course we get a new
830
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:56,760
recruit.
So the first thing you want to
831
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:58,680
do is, OK, where's the class
stack up?
832
00:43:58,720 --> 00:44:01,120
You know, where do we stack up
in Virginia, Things like that.
833
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:06,720
And so right now I'm looking and
nationally we are 46 and
834
00:44:06,720 --> 00:44:12,800
recruiting, I think we're right
at a 87 on our recruit somewhere
835
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:18,320
around that.
And the thing that was more, I
836
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:22,720
guess I don't want to say
alarming, but we, we don't have
837
00:44:22,720 --> 00:44:24,800
a top 10 recruit.
You know what I'm saying?
838
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:29,120
I, I didn't know this, I didn't
pay attention to this until now.
839
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:32,760
I thought I went to sleep and we
had a couple of top 10 recruits
840
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,680
and I woke up and we got none.
I think our top recruit is
841
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,400
number 13 in Virginia and I'm
talking about Virginia recruits.
842
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:41,400
Everybody in the chat if y'all
don't know.
843
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:43,840
Composite, 9247.
Ring, right.
844
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:49,400
So I think Brett Platterbaum is
our top recruit out of Virginia
845
00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:54,960
and he is 13 now.
So I wanted to ask you guys,
846
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:59,720
what do y'all think about that?
Is that a staff problem or is
847
00:44:59,720 --> 00:45:02,640
that a ranking problem?
Well, well, first of all, Brett
848
00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:05,200
Clatterbaugh just a couple
months ago was the number eight
849
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:06,760
player in Virginia.
Right.
850
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,960
And Michael Matthews was the
number five player in Virginia,
851
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:13,840
right?
So for some reason, they both
852
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:17,480
got their four-star removed and
they got bumped down.
853
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,840
Christian Evans, I'm sorry, I
got tally.
854
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,520
You know, I got hot on this.
Christian Evans went to the
855
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:29,360
Under Armour camp in Maryland
over the summer where all the
856
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,320
big time East Coast prospects
come, right?
857
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:33,520
Don't know about that camp.
It's one of the big ones.
858
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:37,960
He's the fucking in defensive
MVP and he gets 0 bump.
859
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,160
He's in the 20s still.
How is that possible?
860
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:45,600
How, how do you go here and
outperform every other elite
861
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,040
crew to this camp and you don't
even get a pump?
862
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:55,040
I think the thing that was most
like crazy to me was to see
863
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:59,560
where Jeff Overton is like he's
32nd in Virginia.
864
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,440
Wasn't he like the Gatorade
player of the year last year and
865
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:05,000
to go look at his stats this
year?
866
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,560
I think there was 6 and O, 7 and
O.
867
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:14,280
He's still running over people
and he gets take it down again.
868
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:17,600
I, I don't understand it.
So I had to get it off my chest
869
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,240
and ask some people, anybody
who's following recruiting in
870
00:46:20,240 --> 00:46:23,080
the chat, please let me know
what's going on.
871
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:26,640
Anybody who's in the Virginia
area in front of the church,
872
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,680
anybody who's in Virginia who's
who's paying attention to these
873
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:31,240
games a little bit more than I
do.
874
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:36,520
What's going on, man?
Are these, are these running
875
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:40,840
backs from Virginia that good
that over to the 32 and in
876
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:42,200
Virginia?
I don't get it.
877
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,040
I don't want to say they're
against tech because I don't
878
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,240
know that, but I'm just saying
something.
879
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:51,440
Some don't quite smell right.
You know what I'm saying?
880
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:55,200
That milk kind of spoiled me.
That's all I'm going to say.
881
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:57,360
Brian, what you feeling about
this stuff, man?
882
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:00,120
I'm kind of right there with
you.
883
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:03,240
You know, I think it's weird
seeing.
884
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:06,320
I think the downgrades are
weird.
885
00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:11,000
I think the ones that didn't get
bumped up like Overton and like
886
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,880
Evans is probably the bigger
crime.
887
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:18,000
They were already committed.
They were already committed so.
888
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:22,960
Yeah, exactly.
So you know, it, it's going to
889
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,840
be interesting to see that.
And I think, you know, rankings
890
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:27,240
matter.
We we talk about rankings.
891
00:47:27,240 --> 00:47:29,560
Rankings matter to a point,
right?
892
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:35,880
But I think this staff has shown
a really good job of evaluating
893
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,600
talent and evaluating talent for
what they're trying to do.
894
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,880
So as long as they're getting
the guys they want, I care a
895
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,840
little bit less.
But obviously from a perception
896
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:48,120
standpoint, we're going to talk
about rankings.
897
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:51,040
We have to talk about it.
So that that's just kind of is
898
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,800
what it is.
They're always going to be
899
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,160
discussed because the numbers
are out there.
900
00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:58,200
Sheldon, you got anything on
this?
901
00:47:58,200 --> 00:47:59,760
Yeah, I mean.
I don't really.
902
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:01,840
I.
I don't pay too much attention
903
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:03,200
to recruit rankings like you
used to.
904
00:48:03,240 --> 00:48:06,240
I think you know individuals.
There's always going to be some
905
00:48:06,240 --> 00:48:08,960
politics involved with, you know
what a guy's rated.
906
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:11,040
I don't think, you know, it's,
it's probably more helpful to
907
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:12,640
look at it from a team
perspective, you know, over
908
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:15,120
multiple years.
And you know, I was, I was, you
909
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:17,560
know, talking this to a friend
who who was pretty good with
910
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:19,920
numbers the other day.
Like recruiting rankings are
911
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,240
more helpful if you're looking
at like 3-4 five year sample
912
00:48:22,240 --> 00:48:25,320
sizes in a single season, much
less a single player.
913
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:27,000
I just went, I just don't really
make too much of it.
914
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,600
So I think like Curtis said, the
staff is and Brian too, the the
915
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,760
staff has done a pretty good job
with evaluations to me if they,
916
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,360
if they think a kid is worthy,
but then you know, he's good
917
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,760
enough for me.
So I'm just I wouldn't make too
918
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:42,120
much deal about 33*4*5*
personally.
919
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:46,200
Well I'm making it about the
four-star 247.
920
00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:48,040
Y'all better get your shit
together.
921
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,600
How are you dropping people
down?
922
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:55,840
We trying to get up in the top
25 and we looking we have 46
923
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,520
well you.
Do the math though, you start
924
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,920
and I was doing it today after
you sent me that message.
925
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:06,080
There's a lot of teams in front
of us that have 20 plus recruit,
926
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:10,120
so we're sitting at 17 and 46.
Yeah, the average is only a
927
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:11,960
little bit lower than what we
want to be at.
928
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,960
The 80 sevens where it's like, I
think if, if you did that, we're
929
00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:16,960
like 31.
Yeah, I mean, we want to be at
930
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:18,640
about 80.
Our our, our squad.
931
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:22,960
We want to be at about 88.
So if we're at 87 1/2, we're in
932
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:25,360
that ballpark, I think.
I think the problem is that we
933
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,960
we were, we were there.
We were at like just below that
934
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,560
80.
We're like 87.7 and then they.
935
00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,280
Bumped them down and they the
bump down, they bump and you
936
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:36,320
know, it hurts more because you,
you get bumped down the two
937
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,280
people that are probably waiting
the the average up the most.
938
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:43,160
So it you know, it, it hurts a
little bit more in that
939
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:47,240
percentage.
But I mean, I'm kind of at a
940
00:49:47,240 --> 00:49:50,880
point where, you know, like I
said earlier, if they're guys
941
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,880
that the staff wants and they
think they can play every just
942
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:56,880
about every young guy,
especially on the defensive side
943
00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,200
of the ball.
But I mean, we're seeing on the
944
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:00,360
offensive side of the ball,
everybody they're bringing in
945
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,680
has went out there and and had
some success on the field.
946
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:09,840
So, you know, and and that's
with a team now that is is
947
00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:13,880
pretty veteran.
So if they're if they're
948
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:16,720
stacking guys behind them that
are able to kind of Wally pip
949
00:50:16,720 --> 00:50:18,800
some of those guys, especially
when injuries happen and things
950
00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,120
like that, I'm OK with it.
All right, tell, I'm going to
951
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,280
say one last thing before we do
a little break.
952
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:30,040
Read here and bring on rec talk.
Woodson was ranked 18th, Woodson
953
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:33,600
was ranked 18th, and there's
some players that have been in
954
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,800
front of him that he is
considerably outperforming,
955
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:38,880
including a couple that went to
Penn State.
956
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:43,400
So we'll move on from this and
as always, we are brought to you
957
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:46,760
by Count Stanley Pharmacy, your
friendly neighborhood pharmacy
958
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:50,960
located at three O 1 S Main St.
in Blacksburg.
959
00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:54,800
Go see Jeremy and let him
entertain you any day of the
960
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:57,960
week.
So now we move on to know the
961
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:02,400
Enemy and tonight got a buddy of
ours from Rec Talk coming in, so
962
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:04,000
we'll go ahead and pull him in
here.
963
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,800
How's it going tonight, man?
It's going pretty good.
964
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:11,240
How are you guys doing?
Hey, I like the AKA there.
965
00:51:11,240 --> 00:51:12,920
I got to call Curtis out a
little bit.
966
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:15,920
Yeah, there you go.
I'm really upset about that and
967
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:18,440
I will never ever let it go.
Don't let it go.
968
00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:20,880
Ever.
You should never let it go.
969
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:24,000
So.
You know Curtis has butchered
970
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:26,560
some pretty pretty easy and
straightforward names in the
971
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,400
past there, so please don't take
any direct offense but
972
00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:31,240
definitely give him as much shit
as possible.
973
00:51:31,240 --> 00:51:33,040
Your running back's a nightmare
for you, though.
974
00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:36,920
How long did it take you to
learn to pronounce his name?
975
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:39,240
About about six months 6.
Months.
976
00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:44,240
It was it was facial.
Facial.
977
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:46,000
Oh, it was.
It was all bad.
978
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,720
Hey, don't, don't, don't ask him
to to to say Kelly Lawson,
979
00:51:49,720 --> 00:51:53,080
though.
Oh God, yeah, I need the
980
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:57,480
pronunciation guy.
But nobody Keely Kalai Kelly
981
00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:00,320
blew up.
I needed one of those those
982
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:02,200
nights.
But rec talk, give us a little
983
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:06,240
background on yourself, how you
started your podcast, and where
984
00:52:06,240 --> 00:52:09,840
folks can find you.
So I started mine right right
985
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:12,000
after the game, after we fired
Jeff Collins.
986
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,160
That's why, if you notice in the
chat, it probably didn't make
987
00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:15,880
sense to you when you said money
down.
988
00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:19,440
That was a big thing Jeff
Collins did, and I probably have
989
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:23,680
40 hours of content just
absolutely hating him and
990
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:26,520
talking about how dumb he is.
In fact, I went to North
991
00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:30,600
Carolina and I got seats 3 rows
back from where he stands and I
992
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:33,720
just yelled at him mercilessly
all game.
993
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:35,560
And that last drive we had was
great.
994
00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:40,720
But I started right after
Collins was fired and only thing
995
00:52:40,720 --> 00:52:42,960
I've done right is just keep
making videos.
996
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:46,920
I don't know how watchable they
are but you know you just keep
997
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:50,320
going on and and talking.
I mean it takes a certain kind
998
00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:53,640
of narcissist to talk for like 2
hours on a live show and and
999
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:55,440
think people are still listening
to.
1000
00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:59,600
That's what I've done.
I got to respect that, though.
1001
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:01,720
You got to respect that.
And, you know, you got to
1002
00:53:01,720 --> 00:53:05,360
respect the Jeff Collins hate
because I can definitely
1003
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:08,720
commiserate with what, what
they're dealing with.
1004
00:53:08,720 --> 00:53:11,920
And, and you know, it's UNC's
problem now and, and, and it's
1005
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:14,040
kind of fun to see the other
side of it when it's like, all
1006
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:15,080
right, well, that's your
problem.
1007
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:17,400
I'm going to talk my shit now
though because.
1008
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,760
Yeah.
You're catching the end of it,
1009
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:21,600
right?
Now they're paying that moron
1010
00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:27,880
$1.1 million a year to give up
70 to JMU and I'm like man, I'd
1011
00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:30,240
screw up that game for 1/10 of
that for you guys.
1012
00:53:30,240 --> 00:53:33,240
Save you some money.
I mean, we need to get into
1013
00:53:33,240 --> 00:53:35,080
coaching.
I think some of you might be,
1014
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:38,200
but from the sounds of it, but
that's what I need to do, yeah.
1015
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:41,120
I've, I've dabbled in the past
and I think I could have went
1016
00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,760
out there and called a better
game against JMU, but you know.
1017
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:46,240
Do the opposite of what you're
doing, all one.
1018
00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:49,440
Right.
It keeps sending the same say
1019
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,960
calls in and they keep scoring
touchdowns.
1020
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:55,160
Try something else.
Tell you would think if he made
1021
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:58,240
just picked one play call and
stuck with the whole game he
1022
00:53:58,240 --> 00:54:01,120
wouldn't give up 70 maybe.
It's going to work at least like
1023
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:05,120
10% of the time you'd think.
Yeah, all righty, so let's
1024
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:06,680
always fun.
Getting a basketball score in a
1025
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:08,360
football game.
How you?
1026
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,440
Do they're ready for basketball
season, aren't they?
1027
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:13,120
Yes, they are.
All right, well, let's get into
1028
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:14,520
it.
Let's talk a little bit about
1029
00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:17,640
the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
here and let's talk about the
1030
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:19,960
offense.
And you know y'all got your
1031
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:23,480
offensive coordinator Buster
Faulkner and a name that
1032
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:27,320
everybody in Hokie Nation will
forever hate as you're Co OC and
1033
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:28,680
Chris Winky.
Fuck that guy.
1034
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:33,120
Fuck him forever.
So what I was wondering because
1035
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:36,720
when you have one like that and
Faulkner's tight ends coach
1036
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:39,360
Winky's working with
quarterbacks, who is the primary
1037
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:42,280
play caller for the Georgia Tech
Yellow Jackets on the offense?
1038
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:45,000
It's interesting because it's
changed.
1039
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:46,880
So it's definitely Buster
Faulkner.
1040
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,040
Buster Faulkner is definitely
the play caller.
1041
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:53,600
But when Key was interim and we
had Chip Long, Winky actually
1042
00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:56,680
called the plays for the last
half of the season.
1043
00:54:56,680 --> 00:55:00,000
And if you ask any Tech fan, I
mean, Winky is the heir apparent
1044
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,400
to become the OC.
You know, Tech struggled on
1045
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,640
offense this year.
Buster, we had to pay Buster to
1046
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:10,320
keep him from going to places
like Kentucky or going to an SEC
1047
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:13,560
job.
But yeah, but Busters play
1048
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,520
caller going a little rough this
season, but we'll we'll see if
1049
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:19,880
we can dial something up for the
Hokies Saturday, the Tecmo Bowl.
1050
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,960
There we go.
There we go the, the, the two
1051
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:26,560
schools that can claim the
moniker Tech and, and everybody
1052
00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,040
knows who they're talking about.
Let's talk a little bit about
1053
00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,440
the quarterback situation,
because that seems to be the one
1054
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:35,560
thing that, you know, even in
the, the media hype and
1055
00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:38,000
everything, you got the national
media talking about it.
1056
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,320
You got your coach kind of
refuting what the national media
1057
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:43,000
saying, You know, what's the
story going on at quarterback?
1058
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:45,960
Are we going to see Haynes King,
who we going to see?
1059
00:55:46,320 --> 00:55:47,360
Who you think we're going to
see?
1060
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:53,400
If I was a betting man, I'd say
Pyron starts.
1061
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:56,520
I mean, you know, King not
starting last week was a big
1062
00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:59,800
deal.
And I think as a staff, you
1063
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:04,400
don't want to put a 65% King in,
have them now have a season
1064
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:06,600
ending injury.
Now you're guaranteed not to
1065
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:09,040
have them when you have a very
capable backup.
1066
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:13,240
And Zach Pyron, you know, he
played against Notre Dame last
1067
00:56:13,240 --> 00:56:14,880
week.
I hate that his first kind of
1068
00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:17,520
start this year was against
Notre Dame with the 4th ranked
1069
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:20,640
pass offense in the country.
Pretty tough out.
1070
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,240
You know, he's trying to force
some throws to make some plays.
1071
00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:26,400
But Zach Poweron does have a win
in Blacksburg.
1072
00:56:26,720 --> 00:56:30,640
So he started in his interim
year, went to Blacksburg and got
1073
00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:32,760
a win.
And look, he's an elite 11
1074
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,520
quarterback.
He's a veteran guy.
1075
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:39,240
There's probably not too many
teams that have backups that our
1076
00:56:39,240 --> 00:56:42,280
veteran like that and I, you
know, I have the full confidence
1077
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:46,440
in Pyron if and probably when he
does start in this game.
1078
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:50,960
Yeah, I think everybody else on
this show remembers that game,
1079
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:54,920
that Pyron went in there and
carved us up a little bit.
1080
00:56:54,920 --> 00:56:58,000
It was a it was a little
frustrating to to witness that
1081
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:01,400
game and how that went down.
And I think we kind of knew then
1082
00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:04,160
that was kind of I think one of
the first big games where you're
1083
00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:06,200
like, all right, well, this
Brent Key might be on to
1084
00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:10,520
something here as an interim.
So, you know, that was a good
1085
00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:14,360
situation for you guys.
And I, I'm, I think, you know, I
1086
00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:17,440
think your ceilings a lot higher
with Haynes King in there.
1087
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:20,680
If he's able to go and he's able
at least to hit that like 85 or
1088
00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:22,760
90% mark.
But I don't like you said, I
1089
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,720
don't think they're going to
roll him out there at 65% and
1090
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:29,640
risk an injury and have him be
limited in what he can do
1091
00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:32,760
because, you know, he does have
a, a dynamic skill set as well
1092
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:35,200
there.
So I'm expecting hiring.
1093
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:37,400
Go ahead.
I'm sorry.
1094
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:38,320
I.
Was going to say I'm I'm
1095
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:39,720
expecting power to get that
start.
1096
00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:43,520
Yeah, King is definitely a
little more fleet footed.
1097
00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:46,520
I mean, he's like a 4-5 flat
type guy.
1098
00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:49,360
But the thing with Pyron is he's
probably a little more
1099
00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:54,720
consistent throwing, probably
has a little more accurate arm.
1100
00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:57,240
So it'll be interesting to see
how it plays out.
1101
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:03,480
Yeah, Power run is, of course,
like you said, he's a no
1102
00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:06,880
stranger to to come to
Blacksburg and fucking stuff up.
1103
00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:10,040
Yeah, I think it was 2022 that
he did.
1104
00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:13,120
But he's actually a Alabama guy.
He's actually a Alabama guy.
1105
00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:16,520
He was AI don't want to say
legend, but he may be close to a
1106
00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,280
legend here in Alabama.
He went to a school called
1107
00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,360
Penson Valley.
If y'all you know, Tech fans,
1108
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:25,680
remember Kenji Christensen.
He was his quarterback in high
1109
00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:27,640
school.
They won A state championship
1110
00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:29,320
together.
That's it.
1111
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:32,360
That was a 6A school, which is
not the biggest division in
1112
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:35,480
Alabama, but, you know, closest
to the biggest division, 7A is
1113
00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:38,600
the biggest.
So Pinson Valley was at that
1114
00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:41,760
time pretty much a powerhouse
just getting back into kind of
1115
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:43,960
his high school stuff.
So he's a winner.
1116
00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:45,800
And I think he went to a smaller
school.
1117
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:47,200
Yeah.
He went to a smaller school
1118
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:49,680
called Fife High School.
Was more of a country.
1119
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:54,080
This is what I'll tell you.
I I he went from the most
1120
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,760
country school in the world and
won a state title there to the
1121
00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:03,080
most hood school or like into
the hood school and want to stay
1122
00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:05,920
titled up.
He can fit into anything like he
1123
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:08,920
can go anywhere and he can play
anywhere and he ain't going to
1124
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:11,480
be scared.
So he will he go ahead?
1125
00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:14,920
He ran the triple option at that
smaller school I'm pretty sure
1126
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:18,040
they run.
And then, you know, I've
1127
00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:20,160
interviewed him on the channel
before.
1128
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:22,840
I think his dad took him to this
other school because I was like,
1129
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:27,560
all right, you know, Paul
Johnson ain't coaching no more.
1130
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:29,360
So maybe we need to go to a
school that doesn't run the
1131
00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:33,080
triple off.
You're in Alabama, Tally, you're
1132
00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:36,400
in Alabama.
Yeah, man, I'm, I'm Alabama born
1133
00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:38,360
and bred.
I'm in Huntsville, AL.
1134
00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:41,280
Nice.
Not not far from me then.
1135
00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:44,000
I'm on the West side of Atlanta.
OK, nice.
1136
00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:46,880
Are you over there?
You over there with the with the
1137
00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:49,720
with the good chicken wings
that's in the strip clubs.
1138
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:51,800
Yeah, that's actually why I
moved there.
1139
00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:56,360
I was like number one thing,
strip club and what's the wing
1140
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:59,920
situation at that strip club?
I'll go on a Tuesday at 2:00 in
1141
00:59:59,920 --> 01:00:03,000
the in the afternoon that that
does not matter to me.
1142
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:06,320
Hey, you're a trooper for that
man.
1143
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:08,280
Hey.
And if they got good wings, it's
1144
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:09,560
worth it.
It's always worth it.
1145
01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:10,720
Exactly.
Don't.
1146
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:12,520
Matter for the wings either that
frozen.
1147
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:20,880
I'm telling you the the the
Internet in Alabama is on 1/2
1148
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:23,320
night Sheldon what you what
you're.
1149
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:28,040
Trying to take my man down.
They are it's it's it's the the
1150
01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:30,960
man is trying to take tally out.
Sheldon, what you got concerning
1151
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,600
something you want to know about
the offense for the Georgia Tech
1152
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:35,360
Yellow Jackets?
Yeah.
1153
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:37,600
I mean, I'm kind of just looking
over some of the advanced stats.
1154
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:41,760
I mean, pretty solid for the
Yellow Jackets, 36 in EPA per
1155
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:44,880
rush, 19th in EPA per per
passing attempt.
1156
01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:48,280
You know, success rate across
the board, pretty good. 39th for
1157
01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:50,640
rushing, 16th for passing.
I mean, it seems like it's a
1158
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:53,440
pretty solid offense overall, 22
points per drive.
1159
01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:56,800
What I guess just go over kind
of the biggest strengths and
1160
01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:59,000
maybe the biggest weaknesses of
the GT offense right now.
1161
01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:00,880
All right.
Well, Shelton, you look a little
1162
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:02,360
younger, so I'm going to say
this.
1163
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:07,560
No cap when I say this biggest
strength of the offense is
1164
01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:09,440
definitely rushing.
I mean these these teams are
1165
01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:11,520
similar in their offensive
identity.
1166
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:15,240
You know, you look at Virginia
Tech, what are you 16th and pass
1167
01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:18,400
offense and number one in the
conference and rush offense.
1168
01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:21,720
Tech's a little more balance,
but they definitely look Brink
1169
01:01:21,720 --> 01:01:23,440
he's a guy that wants to run the
ball.
1170
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:28,800
He says that run the ball.
Jamal Haynes, a guy that had a
1171
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,800
really good season for tech last
year, like their first 1000 yard
1172
01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:34,440
rusters since Paul Johnson was
here.
1173
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:37,160
This year, they've they've been
very inconsistent running the
1174
01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:39,520
ball for whatever reason,
though, which is surprising when
1175
01:01:39,520 --> 01:01:42,840
you have an offensive line and
Ron, I think it sounds like you
1176
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:44,800
played offensive line.
I don't think people give credit
1177
01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:47,760
to how difficult it is to play
that position and how important
1178
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,240
chemistry is.
But something's something's got
1179
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:52,440
lost in the sauce for tech this
year.
1180
01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:54,200
I think it might just be the
people are just going to stack
1181
01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:56,640
the box on tech.
If I'm Virginia Tech, that's
1182
01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:59,040
what I'm going to do.
Stack the box, make a high run,
1183
01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:02,400
throw, play man coverage on the
outside and and see what
1184
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:04,240
happens.
If I'm Virginia Tech, hey, I'm
1185
01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:07,560
not going to let you beat me
running Jamal Haynes like I'm
1186
01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:09,760
Jeff Collins at North Carolina
on the last play.
1187
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:17,240
The biggest weakness on Tech's
team without a doubt is special
1188
01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:19,160
teams.
I mean, it's absolutely killed
1189
01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:21,880
us.
Something you don't talk about a
1190
01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:26,960
ton, but how you get your ass
beat on the road easily is
1191
01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:29,480
special teams.
We've now against Louisville had
1192
01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:33,440
a block kick taken back for a
touchdown, a Marion Hampton took
1193
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:36,680
a kickback against us, should
have, should have lost.
1194
01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:40,680
In North Carolina on special
team snafus, we take time outs,
1195
01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:43,320
get substitution penalties
before punts.
1196
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:46,280
It's a disaster.
And it was a disaster against
1197
01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:48,680
Notre Dame.
So that'd be the biggest
1198
01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:51,880
weakness as far as offense,
defense weakness.
1199
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:56,680
It's our pass pass rush and pass
defense, which luckily for us,
1200
01:02:56,680 --> 01:02:58,080
you've struggled throwing the
ball.
1201
01:02:58,080 --> 01:03:03,080
I think you've got was it Drones
has 9 touchdowns on five picks.
1202
01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:06,240
I think you're near, I think
you're 16th and pass offense
1203
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:08,320
too.
But that's what kind of makes it
1204
01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:11,600
an interesting, interesting
matchup is that we kind of clash
1205
01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:13,160
it.
We we both kind of want to do
1206
01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:15,840
similar things.
Hope that answers your question.
1207
01:03:16,960 --> 01:03:18,720
Yeah, for sure.
And and just so I just can't
1208
01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:22,720
confirm, looking at the numbers,
Georgia Tech does rank 122nd and
1209
01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:24,600
special teams efficiency
according to FBI.
1210
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:27,760
So the numbers do bear that out.
It has been a rough go for the
1211
01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:28,800
jackets on.
Teams.
1212
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:31,040
Talk.
It's not all in your head.
1213
01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:35,280
Yeah, I.
Love being a tech guy.
1214
01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:39,120
The numbers have confirmed what
I can see with my lion eyes.
1215
01:03:40,400 --> 01:03:42,920
Let me ask this, go back to the
offense before we get on the
1216
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:46,880
defensive side of the ball, but
I'm looking here.
1217
01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:51,920
Y'all got 2 main targets and
that's Rutherford and Singleton.
1218
01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:55,040
You know, they're basically
almost half the completed passes
1219
01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:59,520
goes either one of those guys.
Which one of those two guys do
1220
01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:02,200
you like in this matchup versus
Virginia Tech?
1221
01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:05,880
Well, it depends.
Do you like your linebacker
1222
01:04:05,880 --> 01:04:07,520
play?
Do you like, do you feel
1223
01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:09,360
confident in your linebackers
and coverage?
1224
01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:13,880
Depends on which one you talked
about.
1225
01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:15,120
Depends on which one you're
talking about.
1226
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:17,080
There's there's three, so we're
going to try and.
1227
01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:18,800
Take advantage of the weaker 1
so.
1228
01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:22,200
Yeah, yeah.
So probably not not not great.
1229
01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:23,880
Not great.
Yeah, we don't.
1230
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,160
See Malik, I'd say Malik
Rutherford then.
1231
01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:31,800
Now, if you look at the like
passing efficiency of Haines
1232
01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:34,520
King, it's like set.
It was like 75% at one point.
1233
01:04:34,720 --> 01:04:37,120
Very deceptive.
We like to throw the ball behind
1234
01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:39,880
the scrimmage a lot or five
yards and a lot of screens, a
1235
01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:42,960
lot of quick throws.
And we've done that a lot to
1236
01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:46,480
Malik where he just, you know,
we we cross block it or crack
1237
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:48,040
block it.
I don't think you can call it
1238
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:50,200
crack block anymore.
You kind of rub up against the
1239
01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:51,920
guy without killing them
nowadays.
1240
01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:54,360
But I like Malik in that
matchup.
1241
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:59,440
Singleton junior was a true was
a freshman All American last
1242
01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:05,480
year crack *10200m guy.
We just have not done well with
1243
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:07,320
Hanes King throwing down the
field.
1244
01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:09,760
However I think Pyron can do
better.
1245
01:05:10,080 --> 01:05:13,960
But what you're yeah you're
past.
1246
01:05:13,960 --> 01:05:17,360
Your secondary is pretty cracked
though so probably won't go that
1247
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:19,000
route.
Probably rather go with Malik
1248
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:19,960
there.
Yeah.
1249
01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:22,600
And you got one of our
linebackers, Kiante Jenkins is
1250
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,920
effectively, he plays an outside
linebacker spot, but he's coming
1251
01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:29,080
over from playing safety.
So that's where it's like when
1252
01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:32,200
when we talk about some of those
slot guys that, you know, you
1253
01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:33,800
watch with all the defenses,
right?
1254
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:37,360
Like there's usually a converted
safety doing something near the
1255
01:05:37,360 --> 01:05:40,880
line of scrimmage.
And sometimes if they're really
1256
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:45,280
good, they can they can lock up
a slot receiver if they suck
1257
01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:48,080
slots eat all day.
And it's crazy to say.
1258
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:50,640
That that's exposed.
Yeah.
1259
01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:54,440
And I mean, outside we're pretty
good with Delane and Strong.
1260
01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:58,720
So if if we get into those
situations, it sounds like what
1261
01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:01,280
you're telling me is that what
we're going to need to do do
1262
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:05,960
good is track the slot in the in
the running back and tackle
1263
01:06:05,960 --> 01:06:08,800
well, because they're going to
get the ball quickly in space.
1264
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:10,920
And we're going to need to
tackle to avoid getting into
1265
01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:14,680
those, you know, 2nd and short,
3rd and short situations.
1266
01:06:14,680 --> 01:06:17,880
Because I mean this, this is a
defense for the Hokies that
1267
01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:22,280
thrives on getting into second
and third down and long where we
1268
01:06:22,280 --> 01:06:25,240
can send our defensive line
after your quarterback.
1269
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:29,480
Yeah, and boy, was it Powell
Rylan is is a hoss.
1270
01:06:30,440 --> 01:06:32,160
What?
What is, is he a junior?
1271
01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:35,000
What is his class?
He's a senior.
1272
01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:38,120
He's a senior, yeah.
So you see many more He's.
1273
01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:40,520
Going to go pretty high in the
draft then.
1274
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:43,160
I think he's leading the
conference in sacks, tackles for
1275
01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:47,000
loss, a lot of different stats.
Yeah, he's, he's number one in
1276
01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:50,520
the country right now, actually.
So he took over that moniker
1277
01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:53,360
this week.
Actually, he was 5th going into
1278
01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:56,840
Thursday and by the close of
Saturday he was number 1.
1279
01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:59,600
So he had four against Boston
College there.
1280
01:06:59,600 --> 01:07:03,680
And just, I mean, he's been,
he's been as advertised really
1281
01:07:03,680 --> 01:07:05,360
start to finish that so far this
year.
1282
01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:07,200
And, you know, we're really
excited about what that
1283
01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:09,560
defensive line has done as a
whole, especially when it comes
1284
01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:12,280
to getting after the passer.
It'll be interesting, George.
1285
01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:16,480
I think Tech's only given up two
or three sacks all year.
1286
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:18,760
I mean, they're near the top of
the country and given sacks up.
1287
01:07:18,760 --> 01:07:22,840
So be interesting to see that
match up Tech, you know, likes
1288
01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:26,240
to run the RPO game, which is
really the modern day version of
1289
01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:28,800
the triple option.
So we might just work on taking
1290
01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:31,920
him out of some plays and you
know, maybe some other guys can
1291
01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:33,640
make some plays but decided to
see it.
1292
01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:38,560
Yeah, they did that a little bit
with Vandy when we played Vandy.
1293
01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:41,320
So I'm I'm imagining there's
going to be a little bit of that
1294
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:45,600
mixed in as well, trying to
neutralize him as much as
1295
01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:47,040
possible.
Like I said, that's why first
1296
01:07:47,040 --> 01:07:49,320
down is so important for
Virginia Tech from a defensive
1297
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:52,320
standpoint, because if we can
get you in long situations on
1298
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:55,480
2nd and 3rd, that's when we can,
you know, really do the things
1299
01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:58,400
that we like to do.
Oh yeah, I did.
1300
01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:03,080
I did also confirm real quick
Haynes King, 30.7% of his passes
1301
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:04,520
this year have been behind on
scrimmage.
1302
01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:06,760
That's tied with Quinn viewers
from most of the Power 4.
1303
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:09,720
So yes, lots of big, big heavy
dose, short, short.
1304
01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:12,760
Quick.
Why is the SBM not hired to you,
1305
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:15,040
Sheldon?
Like you're just like a machine
1306
01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:17,080
with these stats, man.
Like I think just.
1307
01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:19,359
I'm just a monkey on a keyboard,
man.
1308
01:08:19,359 --> 01:08:20,120
I'm I'm typing.
Away.
1309
01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:24,080
We're not golfing.
You don't have to sandbag me or
1310
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:24,880
nothing.
We're not.
1311
01:08:27,720 --> 01:08:30,040
And that does make a lot of
sense with the number of sacks.
1312
01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:32,359
Passing that much time behind
the line of scrimmage tells you
1313
01:08:32,359 --> 01:08:35,279
y'all want to get that ball out
quick, quick, quick.
1314
01:08:35,680 --> 01:08:37,000
Let's flip over to the tackle
guys.
1315
01:08:37,359 --> 01:08:39,760
Yeah, got to tackle, got to
tackle, be nice behind the line
1316
01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:41,680
of scrimmage a lot.
Let's talk about your defense
1317
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:43,840
next, though.
Obviously Santucci's your DC,
1318
01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:47,800
but obviously so much of this is
coming from Brent Key and you
1319
01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:51,520
know what he's instilled there.
And you know, I've got some
1320
01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:54,359
really good players, but the one
that jumped out to me was
1321
01:08:54,359 --> 01:08:57,600
Trenelius Tatum.
I hope I butchered that as well
1322
01:08:57,600 --> 01:09:02,240
as I did your show's name there.
By some miracle you pronounced
1323
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:05,000
it correct, so.
I win.
1324
01:09:05,319 --> 01:09:06,800
Everybody golf.
Clap for Curtis.
1325
01:09:06,800 --> 01:09:09,040
Everybody golf clap on that
because man, when I look.
1326
01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:11,240
At Curtis.
Not only some of the some of the
1327
01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:14,000
tape and you know, watching him
in a few games this year, but
1328
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:17,439
also his stat lines.
He seems like he is everywhere
1329
01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:20,479
at all times.
Is he?
1330
01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:24,399
Do you consider him your best
defensive player or what do you
1331
01:09:24,399 --> 01:09:26,880
think?
No, I mean, he's a guy that's
1332
01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:29,880
that's been there a while, got a
lot of experience and look, he's
1333
01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:34,319
made some good plays for us.
The the killer in this game for
1334
01:09:34,319 --> 01:09:39,000
Tech is that Kyle Efford will
most likely be out too.
1335
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:42,279
He was.
He injured his shoulder at UNCI.
1336
01:09:42,279 --> 01:09:45,840
Think he said he's practicing a
black jersey, but that was our
1337
01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:50,960
most surefire run stopper, which
is 100% what Tech needs in this
1338
01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:54,080
game, so he's probably been.
Hey, let me ask a question.
1339
01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:56,440
Good.
Who was the dude in the first
1340
01:09:56,440 --> 01:10:00,600
game that looked like a made-up
linebacker?
1341
01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:02,280
Was that him?
Was that the Kyle kid?
1342
01:10:02,280 --> 01:10:05,480
With the with the cowboy collar.
On Yeah, Yeah.
1343
01:10:05,480 --> 01:10:07,520
Yeah, that that's him.
I don't know why that's made a
1344
01:10:07,520 --> 01:10:09,560
comeback.
It went out of style for like 10
1345
01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:11,320
years and now they're back.
But yeah.
1346
01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:13,920
Y'all go look him up in that
first game that that Georgia
1347
01:10:13,920 --> 01:10:16,680
Tech played and see if you want
us to play against him.
1348
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:18,040
No, we don't want to play
against him.
1349
01:10:18,760 --> 01:10:20,480
Because he looked like he
looked.
1350
01:10:20,480 --> 01:10:22,280
Like one of them boys off the
program.
1351
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:28,720
The movie, and I think he was on
steroids that first game, so I'm
1352
01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:31,240
just saying.
He looks, he looks.
1353
01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:34,440
Like a linebacker dog.
Yeah, it's part of our nutrition
1354
01:10:34,440 --> 01:10:35,440
program.
That's right.
1355
01:10:35,440 --> 01:10:36,960
Hey.
You got to you got to do what
1356
01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:40,520
you got to do and you know,
have, I think, you know, when
1357
01:10:40,520 --> 01:10:43,840
you look at that, you know,
Eford is definitely a guy that,
1358
01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:47,760
you know, from your perspective,
sounds like he can impact the
1359
01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:54,160
game if he's not able to go, You
know, what do you guys look like
1360
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:55,680
outside?
Because I mean, you know, you
1361
01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:59,080
talked about that may be an area
where we can exploit, but it's
1362
01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:02,360
also an area where we haven't
necessarily been as dynamic as
1363
01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:04,920
we want to be.
If we're throwing outside, if
1364
01:11:04,920 --> 01:11:07,480
we're throwing down the field,
who's going to be the guy that
1365
01:11:07,480 --> 01:11:11,600
can make some plays?
Who We've been pretty awful
1366
01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:14,840
defending the past.
The stats don't necessarily show
1367
01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:16,840
that.
Are just the straight ACC
1368
01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:19,040
rankings of like total past
defense.
1369
01:11:19,040 --> 01:11:22,560
I think we only have like 2
picks on the year, so only two
1370
01:11:22,560 --> 01:11:26,320
takeaways.
And really that a lot of that
1371
01:11:26,320 --> 01:11:30,200
comes down to our pass rush is
just flat out awful.
1372
01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:34,800
We just do not get after the
quarterback that I mean, look, a
1373
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:38,080
good quarterback.
Like who's the guy for Syracuse?
1374
01:11:38,080 --> 01:11:41,000
Kyle McCord, he, he almost had
300 yards before half.
1375
01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:43,440
It's just because we couldn't
get to them.
1376
01:11:43,440 --> 01:11:49,480
So that you know, if you look at
I, when I preview the games and
1377
01:11:49,480 --> 01:11:52,280
I'll, I'll record 1 after this
for tomorrow.
1378
01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:57,120
If I, I like to think of what is
1 stat I could get from the game
1379
01:11:57,120 --> 01:11:59,040
that I think would tell me who
won it.
1380
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:03,680
It might, it might be the
passing yards for Virginia Tech.
1381
01:12:03,920 --> 01:12:07,960
If you can really balance your
run with being able to throw on
1382
01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:10,720
us like most people do,
Tooting's going to have a
1383
01:12:10,720 --> 01:12:13,520
monster day because then because
then we can't just commit,
1384
01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:17,240
commit to the run.
We we do have some experience
1385
01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:20,120
there, the Miles Brooks at
safety, Clayton Powell, Lee,
1386
01:12:20,720 --> 01:12:23,520
Amari Harvey.
It's just we get in positions to
1387
01:12:23,520 --> 01:12:27,160
make plays and we don't make
plays a lot of times and it's
1388
01:12:27,160 --> 01:12:30,200
just tough.
Yeah, and and you said it just a
1389
01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:34,720
second ago about the pass rush,
your eyes ain't fooling. 126th
1390
01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:41,160
in the country in team sacks.
So, you know, and obviously if
1391
01:12:41,160 --> 01:12:44,840
that's happening, I know Shelton
wants to bring this up now, he's
1392
01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:46,440
got a little something on the
secondary there.
1393
01:12:46,440 --> 01:12:49,320
But obviously if you're not
getting past rush, you could
1394
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:51,920
have an elite secondary.
It's just it's not going to show
1395
01:12:51,920 --> 01:12:53,880
at all points in time.
Sheldon, what you got, man?
1396
01:12:55,040 --> 01:12:58,160
Yeah, looking over the defensive
numbers, I think the biggest
1397
01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:00,640
bugaboo has been, you know, the
past defense.
1398
01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:06,680
Right now Georgia Tech is 103rd
114th in drop back success rate
1399
01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:10,080
against, you know, right at
4043% there.
1400
01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:12,040
Why do you think it is that the
secondary has struggled?
1401
01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:16,120
The secondary, yeah, I mean, I
think we're talking about it.
1402
01:13:16,120 --> 01:13:18,840
I mean a big part is they can
only cover for so long.
1403
01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:21,680
I don't care how good of a
corner you are, if you're manned
1404
01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:23,680
up, there's only so long you can
cover them or in zone.
1405
01:13:23,680 --> 01:13:26,680
We've really, we've really done
better playing man because I
1406
01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:29,720
think that simplifies things for
your backs a little more.
1407
01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:32,480
Hey, that's my guy.
As opposed to playing zone and
1408
01:13:32,480 --> 01:13:35,840
really feeling where's the
quarterback looking in your
1409
01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:38,720
periphery, you know, what are
the wide receivers doing?
1410
01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:41,160
I got crossers coming.
I need to step up or whatever.
1411
01:13:42,160 --> 01:13:44,600
And he talked about it a lot in
the press conference.
1412
01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:46,320
I think a lot of its confidence
too.
1413
01:13:46,320 --> 01:13:49,840
I don't think we're just
untalented in the secondary.
1414
01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:53,280
I think when you get lit up game
after game, you kind of have
1415
01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:56,360
this impending doom feeling
where it's like, man, it like
1416
01:13:56,520 --> 01:13:58,680
here it goes again.
They just dropped a, you know,
1417
01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:01,000
35 yard throw on us.
Here we go again.
1418
01:14:01,440 --> 01:14:03,080
So I think, I think it's a
little both of those.
1419
01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:05,640
Yeah, we know what I'm.
Saying right here.
1420
01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:08,600
We know that feeling, but most
of the time with Virginia Tech
1421
01:14:08,600 --> 01:14:13,160
is, oh Lord, the quarterback
just scrambled for 35 yards
1422
01:14:13,160 --> 01:14:18,800
again that.
Happens to you when you're not
1423
01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:21,680
rushing the passer very well.
I can almost guarantee you,
1424
01:14:21,680 --> 01:14:24,200
you're not being very
disciplined in pass rush lanes
1425
01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:27,600
where a mobile quarterback can
step up and not be touched for,
1426
01:14:27,640 --> 01:14:30,880
you know, 8-9 yards either that
that's happened a lot.
1427
01:14:32,560 --> 01:14:35,120
Yeah, And just kind of feeding
off that, I think, you know,
1428
01:14:35,120 --> 01:14:39,680
when we look at, you know, what
Kyron drones can do against this
1429
01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:43,000
defense, you know, if we say the
the over under sitting there at
1430
01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:45,840
2:15 and we hit the over, what
you're telling me is you
1431
01:14:45,840 --> 01:14:48,160
probably like the chances of
that being a hokey win.
1432
01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:51,280
I'd say 90% likely you're
winning the game.
1433
01:14:51,280 --> 01:14:56,600
Well at 2:15, I put it at 2:50.
If he throws for more than 250,
1434
01:14:56,840 --> 01:15:00,520
I would say, I would say 98%
likely all we are winning this
1435
01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:03,280
game.
I mean, he's had some good games
1436
01:15:03,280 --> 01:15:07,000
here, especially get Stanford,
who I think from a defensive
1437
01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:10,360
passing efficiency standpoint
was probably about in the same
1438
01:15:10,360 --> 01:15:15,080
ballpark as Georgia Tech.
If we can do that and and still
1439
01:15:15,080 --> 01:15:17,720
have some success on the ground,
then I think I think we're
1440
01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:19,600
putting ourselves in a pretty
good position there.
1441
01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:21,320
So it's going to come down to
that.
1442
01:15:21,320 --> 01:15:24,760
And I think, you know, Sheldon
has spoken to it to a point.
1443
01:15:25,960 --> 01:15:28,920
You know, Kyron's had a pretty
good amount of success against
1444
01:15:28,920 --> 01:15:32,840
man, he's gotten better against
throwing against the zone.
1445
01:15:33,440 --> 01:15:36,240
So we'll see if we can get some
consistency in this game and
1446
01:15:36,240 --> 01:15:38,840
give give a good compliment to
what we can do in the running
1447
01:15:38,840 --> 01:15:43,360
game with with Tooting there.
Yeah, and I don't.
1448
01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:46,440
I'm sure Shelton, you've got the
stats sitting right above you
1449
01:15:46,440 --> 01:15:47,440
somewhere.
I don't.
1450
01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:51,680
I think the last time we dropped
a game beyond Blacksburg was
1451
01:15:51,680 --> 01:15:54,320
2012.
Whatever reason we played well
1452
01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:56,200
in got it.
You knew it.
1453
01:15:56,440 --> 01:15:59,720
Of course you did.
Well, to be fair, I saw, I saw a
1454
01:15:59,720 --> 01:16:02,080
Twitter graphic earlier today
and I was like, yeah, it's been.
1455
01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:04,120
But they've only played three
times though, or maybe four
1456
01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:05,960
times I think.
Yeah, 20. 12.
1457
01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:08,680
In Blacksburg, yeah.
Yeah, and.
1458
01:16:09,320 --> 01:16:10,600
Bill Bill Roth dropped it out
there.
1459
01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:15,560
I think the there's only been
like what, one home victory in
1460
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:18,800
this matchup in like the last 15
years or something like that.
1461
01:16:18,800 --> 01:16:20,560
Like, yeah, I was, I was at that
game.
1462
01:16:20,760 --> 01:16:22,600
I was at Bobby Dodd Stadium when
it happened.
1463
01:16:22,600 --> 01:16:27,080
I think it was 20.
No, I think it was 2017.
1464
01:16:28,160 --> 01:16:30,520
Greg Stroman.
Greg Stroman picked one off and
1465
01:16:30,520 --> 01:16:33,320
took it back.
And then I think we only, I
1466
01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:35,200
think that was the year Cam
Phillips was that guy.
1467
01:16:36,560 --> 01:16:38,120
And they they beat us at Bobby
Dodd.
1468
01:16:38,120 --> 01:16:41,200
And I was there and I was sad,
yeah.
1469
01:16:42,520 --> 01:16:44,600
Was it 09 when you all ranked
4th?
1470
01:16:45,600 --> 01:16:48,200
And y'all, I know y'all had a
really mobile quarterback.
1471
01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:50,040
We, we pulled one out at Bobby
Dodd.
1472
01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:51,600
I think Gailey might even been
our coach.
1473
01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:54,600
It's been a while, I just
remember being that.
1474
01:16:54,760 --> 01:16:57,040
Curtis is is dialing back in the
history books, I think.
1475
01:16:57,120 --> 01:16:59,520
Yeah, let me get to history
books here.
1476
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:02,760
I always, the one that always
stands out to us and we can do a
1477
01:17:02,760 --> 01:17:06,520
little history is the Calvin
Johnson year because we were a
1478
01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:10,120
significantly better team than
y'all and we could not cover
1479
01:17:10,120 --> 01:17:13,320
that specimen on the field that
day.
1480
01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:20,240
That was O that was O 6 because
I got to attend the 2005 game.
1481
01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:23,960
Go look at that one wreck talk.
That was game day was on site
1482
01:17:24,560 --> 01:17:27,160
and that was an absolute.
I'm sure you probably drink a
1483
01:17:27,160 --> 01:17:31,600
lot that day because of the ass
whipping that was put on because
1484
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:34,120
that was an ugly game and I was
blacked out in the stands.
1485
01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:38,400
Well, I mean, Calvin, to be
fair, Calvin Johnson, if you
1486
01:17:38,400 --> 01:17:44,080
just created a wide receiver in
Madden and maxed all his stats
1487
01:17:44,080 --> 01:17:46,960
out, you would get something
like Calvin Johnson.
1488
01:17:46,960 --> 01:17:50,440
I mean, the dude's just a
freaking I'm, I'm pissed at the
1489
01:17:50,440 --> 01:17:55,240
lines to this day for screwing
his career up in the pros. 100%
1490
01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:58,800
Korea.
And you're right, it was 2009.
1491
01:17:59,120 --> 01:18:02,600
Tyrod Taylor was the quarterback
that year, so.
1492
01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:07,560
And I think Roman Reigns was the
one bringing him to the ground.
1493
01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:09,960
Oh my God.
He's crazy.
1494
01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:11,720
It might have been before that,
actually.
1495
01:18:11,720 --> 01:18:14,360
I don't know.
I know Joanna White played here.
1496
01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:16,200
Yes, he did.
No, he he was.
1497
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:17,840
That would have been about the
time frame for him.
1498
01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:20,320
Yeah, I don't know if it was
late game, but he was definitely
1499
01:18:20,320 --> 01:18:22,760
that time.
It was that time frame for him.
1500
01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:26,000
Pretty crazy to think about it.
Well, man, listen, we want you
1501
01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:28,520
to go ahead, tell everybody
where they can find you.
1502
01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:31,720
If you got YouTube channel,
Twitter, rec talk, where can
1503
01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:34,880
they find you and anything
special you're talking about as
1504
01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:38,960
you record this evening?
Yeah, so the YouTube channel is
1505
01:18:38,960 --> 01:18:42,040
Rec Talk, not Rec Tech.
If you search Rec Tech, I don't
1506
01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:44,680
know what will come up, but it's
probably not me.
1507
01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:49,000
I'm at at Rec under score Talk
on Twitter because my other one
1508
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:52,720
got hacked by like sex bots.
I don't know if that says about
1509
01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:56,680
anything about what I search on
the Internet, but hey, yeah, so
1510
01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,720
it's at Rec under score Talk.
I'll do a preview video this
1511
01:18:59,720 --> 01:19:02,880
week.
I do power rankings every week,
1512
01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:06,280
usually on Monday.
I'll be picking the spread
1513
01:19:06,280 --> 01:19:08,120
probably tomorrow, the day
after.
1514
01:19:09,240 --> 01:19:12,600
And a caveat with that, if you
want to speed run the poor
1515
01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:14,400
house, go ahead and bet a lot on
sports.
1516
01:19:14,560 --> 01:19:16,920
I don't do it and you shouldn't
either.
1517
01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:19,920
But yeah, so I should have those
coming out probably.
1518
01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:24,280
Sea Dog and I will be streaming
this game Saturday on his
1519
01:19:24,280 --> 01:19:26,600
channel.
If you just look up Sea Dog,
1520
01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:29,520
you'll see us both probably
losing our minds.
1521
01:19:29,520 --> 01:19:32,960
Usually my voice is like an
octave lower after those games
1522
01:19:32,960 --> 01:19:34,640
because I don't know about you
guys.
1523
01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:36,640
I take it hard.
I mean, I take it hard.
1524
01:19:37,160 --> 01:19:40,960
Not as hard as it used to be,
but you sound like me in our
1525
01:19:40,960 --> 01:19:46,640
text chain during games.
Curtis, Curtis is we talked
1526
01:19:46,640 --> 01:19:49,000
about earlier, Curtis is a
roller coaster ride during
1527
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:51,200
games.
You got, you got to ride the
1528
01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:52,680
waves, you got to ride the
waves.
1529
01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:55,440
You got you got to hope that
that they turn it around because
1530
01:19:56,240 --> 01:19:59,040
sometimes Curtis, anytime we're
playing bad, we're the worst
1531
01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:01,920
team in the ACC.
No country, not even the ACC
1532
01:20:02,680 --> 01:20:05,080
country.
But listen, rec talk, man.
1533
01:20:05,080 --> 01:20:07,280
We appreciate you taking a
little bit of your time tonight
1534
01:20:07,400 --> 01:20:09,000
to talk a little Georgia Tech
with us.
1535
01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:12,560
Nice meeting you man.
And, and again, as everybody we
1536
01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:16,040
see, maybe one day we make it to
Atlanta, you make it to
1537
01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:18,120
Blacksburg, we'll meet up and
say what's up, have a beer
1538
01:20:18,120 --> 01:20:19,800
together.
Can't do, man.
1539
01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:21,720
I tell you what, y'all.
Come on down, Tally.
1540
01:20:21,800 --> 01:20:24,040
I'll take you to the cheetah.
You know what I'm talking about,
1541
01:20:24,040 --> 01:20:27,280
all right?
Babe, thanks.
1542
01:20:28,160 --> 01:20:30,200
Have a good one, thanks.
For your saying that, appreciate
1543
01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:34,120
it Tally it's only two and a
half hour drive, right?
1544
01:20:34,480 --> 01:20:36,240
Oh yeah, I'll be over there all
the time, man.
1545
01:20:36,240 --> 01:20:38,360
That's it.
Whenever we play down there.
1546
01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:42,840
Got to love it, got to love it.
The Kyle effort thing must have
1547
01:20:42,840 --> 01:20:45,640
just came out because I was
looking up about effort.
1548
01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:49,120
That's big for them because that
guy's got 50 plus tackles.
1549
01:20:49,320 --> 01:20:52,520
So losing him is definitely
could open up some things for
1550
01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:54,960
the run game because the Shelton
point, they don't have a good
1551
01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:57,120
pass T, but they do have pretty
good run D.
1552
01:20:57,520 --> 01:21:00,680
So let's flip it over.
Let's talk about some hokey keys
1553
01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:05,840
before we give our predictions.
Shelton, what is your key this
1554
01:21:05,840 --> 01:21:08,400
weekend?
Man, why did it have to go
1555
01:21:08,400 --> 01:21:13,040
first?
Because Kali gets mad when I
1556
01:21:13,040 --> 01:21:16,560
pick him.
You put me on the spot.
1557
01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:22,160
I don't know.
I think I would say defensively
1558
01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:25,080
I I'd focus there, just, you
know, make sure you pressure the
1559
01:21:25,080 --> 01:21:27,200
QB.
I think, you know, get off
1560
01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:28,600
blocks.
Again, like we talked about,
1561
01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:31,280
this is a Georgia Tech team that
really loves to, you know, work
1562
01:21:31,280 --> 01:21:33,680
the short game.
So you got to, you know, make
1563
01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:35,520
sure you're getting off blocks,
you know, attacking downhill,
1564
01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:38,680
being physical and just, you
know, you know, run into the
1565
01:21:38,680 --> 01:21:40,120
ball carrier.
That's that's the biggest for
1566
01:21:40,120 --> 01:21:42,480
the defense.
I think, you know, Georgia Tech
1567
01:21:42,480 --> 01:21:46,520
has some holes on defense, but
it's the offense for GT that I'm
1568
01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:47,720
a little bit more concerned
about.
1569
01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:50,160
So just try to, you know, try to
limit their short passing game.
1570
01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:53,840
Got it, Tally, Just because
that's up for you there.
1571
01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:56,600
Hey.
The lemon pepper wings at the
1572
01:21:56,600 --> 01:21:58,400
strip club are always lemon
pepper wet.
1573
01:21:58,800 --> 01:22:02,640
Yeah, so you know what?
You know what damn it, we done
1574
01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:05,720
had a lot of stuff going on on
this show and I've been writing
1575
01:22:05,720 --> 01:22:08,960
down stuff that y'all been doing
over here today and y'all need
1576
01:22:08,960 --> 01:22:12,680
to get your acts together.
Talking about wings being wet at
1577
01:22:12,680 --> 01:22:16,440
the at the strip club.
That's that's something that I'm
1578
01:22:16,440 --> 01:22:20,520
going to talk to Jack about.
That's number one, Sheldon said
1579
01:22:20,520 --> 01:22:22,400
bugaboo earlier he.
Did say you know.
1580
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:27,760
He said Bugaboo earlier.
I heard it, Brian said.
1581
01:22:27,760 --> 01:22:30,440
Gangbuster.
You know, I don't know how to
1582
01:22:30,440 --> 01:22:34,000
feel about Brian saying
Gangbuster and talking about wet
1583
01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:37,360
wings at a club.
There's a lot going on.
1584
01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:39,440
He also said Curtis was a roller
coaster ride.
1585
01:22:39,440 --> 01:22:41,480
I am a roller coaster ride.
What's going?
1586
01:22:41,520 --> 01:22:43,360
On that might be a shirt, right?
Hey, what?
1587
01:22:43,360 --> 01:22:45,080
I'll put your my heads.
Hey, man.
1588
01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:48,360
Y'all need to go to church?
On tally, said pause.
1589
01:22:49,080 --> 01:22:52,280
What is going on today?
And last but not least, Rick
1590
01:22:52,280 --> 01:22:55,960
Talk said he takes it hard.
He said it a couple of times.
1591
01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:58,440
This show's got a little while
today.
1592
01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:00,480
I'm going to ring it back in.
Really.
1593
01:23:00,480 --> 01:23:01,120
Back in?
Bring it.
1594
01:23:01,880 --> 01:23:05,640
Back in Cal, what's the key?
Key to US winning is to stay
1595
01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:07,360
ugly.
We need to be ugly.
1596
01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:10,240
We don't need to get cute.
You know, every time we get
1597
01:23:10,240 --> 01:23:13,160
cute, we do something stupid.
I think last week we had it
1598
01:23:13,160 --> 01:23:15,000
rolling.
We put the backup quarterback in
1599
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:18,600
to try to do something.
We lost some yards and then some
1600
01:23:18,840 --> 01:23:22,040
crazy stuff start happening.
Hey, the stuff that's working,
1601
01:23:22,040 --> 01:23:24,960
let's just keep it working.
Let's get just stay ugly.
1602
01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:27,200
Let's just be us.
That's what I think all.
1603
01:23:28,280 --> 01:23:32,120
Right, Bron?
Siegel, continue to be who you
1604
01:23:32,120 --> 01:23:35,560
are, man.
I think we finally showed what
1605
01:23:35,560 --> 01:23:38,680
this team is capable of.
I think we've seen it
1606
01:23:38,680 --> 01:23:41,400
consistently the last really
three weeks, you know,
1607
01:23:41,400 --> 01:23:43,840
back-to-back here that we've had
a game.
1608
01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:47,160
That's the team that I expected
to start a year and just keep
1609
01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:50,080
being that team.
If you keep being that team, you
1610
01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:52,680
know everybody in front of you
is pretty much on the table for
1611
01:23:52,680 --> 01:23:58,520
AW, so that's what you got to
do. 100% And my key is treat to
1612
01:23:58,520 --> 01:24:02,760
back up like a starter, treat
Zach like he's saying he's team
1613
01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:06,520
and I think maybe the best thing
going in that is what he did in
1614
01:24:06,520 --> 01:24:08,880
2022 here.
He did not have a great game
1615
01:24:08,880 --> 01:24:11,320
coming in that week, but he beat
us.
1616
01:24:11,720 --> 01:24:14,720
And I think sometimes just show
the film like this guy can come
1617
01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:17,160
down here and win.
Don't think he's a backup.
1618
01:24:17,280 --> 01:24:20,320
Go out there, hit him as hard as
you would hit Haynes King.
1619
01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:23,880
Make him pay for his runs.
He decides to hold it on to an
1620
01:24:23,880 --> 01:24:25,520
extra second, strip the ball
from him.
1621
01:24:25,680 --> 01:24:29,160
So do not act like that.
He is a backup quarterback.
1622
01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:32,040
All right, let's get to the
predictions here.
1623
01:24:32,440 --> 01:24:34,720
And you know what?
I'm going to go first this week
1624
01:24:35,320 --> 01:24:38,720
because you know y'all let me
run the controls and I am going
1625
01:24:38,720 --> 01:24:41,400
to go with a Hokies win.
I don't think it's going to
1626
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:43,080
quite be the blowout like last
week.
1627
01:24:43,080 --> 01:24:45,680
I do not think we're going to
cover this, but I think we're
1628
01:24:45,680 --> 01:24:51,120
going to win 27 to 18, Going to
have a couple big ones.
1629
01:24:51,160 --> 01:24:54,520
I know we know talking about
that rush defensive theirs
1630
01:24:54,520 --> 01:24:58,520
without the man in the middle
and even if he comes in, y'all
1631
01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:02,040
know if you have some sort of
injury, there's going to be
1632
01:25:02,040 --> 01:25:04,880
something limited.
So in that case, we're on Adam.
1633
01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:10,880
Give me 2718 pokies.
Hang on for A2 score Win Brian.
1634
01:25:12,640 --> 01:25:14,360
I got us winning, I got us
covering.
1635
01:25:14,360 --> 01:25:17,400
Give me 3420 Hokies.
I think we go out there and take
1636
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:19,960
care of business.
I think that we are going to see
1637
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:23,240
similar type of success through
the air and on the ground like
1638
01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:25,880
we saw again Stanford.
I think it is going to be a
1639
01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:27,560
pretty balanced 1.
I think we will have a little
1640
01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:29,800
bit more success in the running
game that we had against
1641
01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:32,360
Stanford.
But overall, I think we handled
1642
01:25:32,360 --> 01:25:35,360
that business for four quarters.
3420 Hokies.
1643
01:25:36,040 --> 01:25:39,840
Yep, and actually it was 9 1/2
so something else has changed
1644
01:25:39,840 --> 01:25:44,360
because the spreads went up to
11 1/2 now so I did not know
1645
01:25:44,360 --> 01:25:46,800
that I thought it was at 9:00,
so I'm not covering Brian still
1646
01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:48,680
got covering Sheldon.
What about you?
1647
01:25:48,680 --> 01:25:52,480
I'll.
Take Vt 27 to 17.
1648
01:25:52,960 --> 01:25:55,520
I think augments will be fine.
I just don't.
1649
01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:57,880
I don't trust GT with their
quarterback situation.
1650
01:25:58,080 --> 01:25:59,960
They'll they'll get a couple
touchdowns but that's it.
1651
01:25:59,960 --> 01:26:03,400
So Hoagies won't quite cover,
but I do believe it will be the
1652
01:26:03,400 --> 01:26:06,680
first time in the Brent pie era
that the Hokies do not win by 17
1653
01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:10,000
or more points.
All right, John Talley.
1654
01:26:10,680 --> 01:26:12,920
Hey, man, I told you I got to
stay true to it.
1655
01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:15,840
I'm going Georgia Tech.
I'm going to keep doing it.
1656
01:26:15,840 --> 01:26:18,560
Locker room material, Georgia
Tech.
1657
01:26:18,560 --> 01:26:20,120
I say it's going to be a close
game.
1658
01:26:20,640 --> 01:26:24,280
Until we prove we can win those
games consistently, I'm going to
1659
01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:29,600
continue saying it.
Again, I hate to say it, but if
1660
01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:31,400
it keeps us winning, I'm going
to say it every week.
1661
01:26:31,640 --> 01:26:36,840
So we'll go.
Georgia Tech 27/27/21 Georgia
1662
01:26:36,840 --> 01:26:40,480
Tech.
All right, there we go. 2721
1663
01:26:40,480 --> 01:26:43,080
Jonathan Talley, there are our
predictions.
1664
01:26:43,080 --> 01:26:46,560
Feel free put your predictions
in the comment section.
1665
01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:53,320
All right, let's turn it on.
Let's go to big screeners where
1666
01:26:53,320 --> 01:26:57,800
last week, other than me and
Tally Tally, we didn't have a
1667
01:26:57,800 --> 01:26:59,160
good week, man.
You got 2 right?
1668
01:26:59,160 --> 01:27:01,440
I got one right.
Everybody else was 500.
1669
01:27:02,080 --> 01:27:06,480
I got the money one right.
I did get the the song game,
1670
01:27:06,480 --> 01:27:07,880
right.
That's the only one.
1671
01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:12,320
But as of right now, pretty much
everybody's pretty much a coin
1672
01:27:12,320 --> 01:27:15,040
flip except Brian.
He's slightly better than a coin
1673
01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:18,440
flip.
So if you got your money, put it
1674
01:27:18,440 --> 01:27:20,760
with Brian.
Maybe, maybe not.
1675
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:26,080
All right, so we got to begin.
We'll get into the the week of
1676
01:27:26,080 --> 01:27:28,360
college football when we get to
choose these.
1677
01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:32,120
It's actually it's actually
becoming more difficult because
1678
01:27:32,120 --> 01:27:35,360
there are so many good games on
the slate every week, like
1679
01:27:35,360 --> 01:27:39,240
pivotal games for potential
conference championships, rank
1680
01:27:39,240 --> 01:27:42,560
matchup, rivalry games.
So let's start it this week.
1681
01:27:42,560 --> 01:27:44,960
Brian Siegler, where are you
travelling us to?
1682
01:27:46,240 --> 01:27:52,520
College Station, baby, LSU,
Texas A&M, A&M's got that, that
1683
01:27:52,520 --> 01:27:55,480
2 1/2 there.
And you know what?
1684
01:27:55,800 --> 01:27:58,760
I haven't really liked what I've
seen overall from this A&M
1685
01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:01,680
squad.
LSUI think it's been a little
1686
01:28:01,680 --> 01:28:04,360
more consistent.
So I'm actually going to take
1687
01:28:04,360 --> 01:28:07,000
LSU to cover here and take the
win outright.
1688
01:28:08,480 --> 01:28:11,160
All righty, I'm, I'm going to
get the exact opposite of you.
1689
01:28:11,200 --> 01:28:14,440
I I think Texas A&M is slowly
finding their identity under
1690
01:28:14,440 --> 01:28:20,040
Elko.
LSU help me beat the Ole Miss,
1691
01:28:20,040 --> 01:28:21,880
but they are not in Death
Valley.
1692
01:28:21,880 --> 01:28:25,440
That is going to be a Saturday
night game down at Kyle Field
1693
01:28:25,920 --> 01:28:28,560
late 2 1/2.
I think first of all, get ready
1694
01:28:28,560 --> 01:28:31,400
for a fun game.
I think you know, there's always
1695
01:28:31,400 --> 01:28:33,280
games like watch this game.
It's going to be entertaining.
1696
01:28:33,280 --> 01:28:37,480
I think this is going to be an
entertaining game, but A&M slips
1697
01:28:37,480 --> 01:28:40,640
it by like 6 points at the end
to beat LSU.
1698
01:28:41,640 --> 01:28:43,920
Sheldon.
I'll take A&M.
1699
01:28:44,080 --> 01:28:46,920
Normally this would be let down
here for the Aggies, but I feel
1700
01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:48,800
like this the first time in a
while the Texas and Ms. had a
1701
01:28:48,800 --> 01:28:50,600
real head coach.
I love what Elko's doing, so I
1702
01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:51,800
think he's got his boys ready
all.
1703
01:28:53,520 --> 01:28:57,560
Right, Kelly?
I'm a big Elko fan and not a
1704
01:28:57,640 --> 01:29:03,520
Brian Kelly fan but I am AI
think his name is Weeks for LSU
1705
01:29:03,520 --> 01:29:07,040
the linebacker.
He is a monster and every time
1706
01:29:07,040 --> 01:29:10,320
I've seen to bet against LSU
they found a way to win.
1707
01:29:10,320 --> 01:29:12,240
So I'm going to go LSU this week
all.
1708
01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:17,360
Right, Tally goes LSU, our
wonderful rider Miranda goes LSU
1709
01:29:17,720 --> 01:29:21,160
and the music Man says LSU as
well.
1710
01:29:21,920 --> 01:29:26,360
All righty, I am next on this
and I am going to Thursday night
1711
01:29:26,640 --> 01:29:28,440
where Matt Berry's trying to
stay out there.
1712
01:29:28,440 --> 01:29:29,880
Pitt, you got a lot to live up
to.
1713
01:29:30,080 --> 01:29:32,800
First of all, Matt, Pitt is not
going to live up to the
1714
01:29:32,800 --> 01:29:36,480
atmosphere or the excitement
that you got on campus and in
1715
01:29:36,480 --> 01:29:39,480
Lane Stadium.
So please notate that you're not
1716
01:29:39,480 --> 01:29:42,840
going to get that anywhere else.
Pitt, Syracuse is actually a
1717
01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:46,520
pretty big game within the ACC
Pitt currently undefeated,
1718
01:29:46,760 --> 01:29:53,320
Syracuse only with one loss.
So for this one, I think
1719
01:29:53,320 --> 01:29:57,280
Syracuse is going to beat Pit.
I think they going to make Pit
1720
01:29:57,280 --> 01:30:02,000
eat shit pimp for some reason
and shell, maybe I'm I'm just
1721
01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:04,800
making it up.
I just yes, they're unbeaten,
1722
01:30:04,800 --> 01:30:08,280
but it's just like it may be the
most unimpressive 6 and O in the
1723
01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:11,760
country.
Maybe, maybe not, but it's yeah,
1724
01:30:11,760 --> 01:30:14,480
look, look it up, see if it's
one of the most unimpressive 6
1725
01:30:14,480 --> 01:30:17,080
and O's in the country.
I know they're big wins West
1726
01:30:17,080 --> 01:30:19,040
Virginia, but I'm taking
Syracuse.
1727
01:30:19,040 --> 01:30:20,920
Give me the point.
Syracuse wins outright.
1728
01:30:22,160 --> 01:30:25,800
Curtis, I'm going to piggyback
on that and say that these
1729
01:30:25,880 --> 01:30:29,160
teams, both teams have really
good records and neither of them
1730
01:30:29,160 --> 01:30:33,200
are impressive in my opinion,
the five and one or the six and
1731
01:30:33,200 --> 01:30:35,760
O, But in this case, Pitt needs
to eat some shit.
1732
01:30:36,200 --> 01:30:40,000
So that's what I'm going with.
Yeah, this was a this was a
1733
01:30:40,000 --> 01:30:42,600
tough game to pick.
I mean, I took Syracuse, but
1734
01:30:42,600 --> 01:30:45,000
man, I'm, I just, I do not feel
good at all about it.
1735
01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:48,720
And I did confirm Pitt has the
the lowest SP plus ranking of
1736
01:30:48,720 --> 01:30:50,760
all the undefeated teams in the
power floor.
1737
01:30:50,760 --> 01:30:54,360
So, you know, they're, they've
won 39 barely.
1738
01:30:54,520 --> 01:30:56,000
Oh damn, they're not even in the
top.
1739
01:30:56,040 --> 01:30:57,440
Well, they're, well, actually,
no, sorry.
1740
01:30:57,680 --> 01:30:59,240
They were 30th.
So offense is 39.
1741
01:30:59,240 --> 01:31:01,760
So I mean, they've been, they've
been kind of, you know, fringe,
1742
01:31:01,960 --> 01:31:05,000
you know, top 30 teams.
But I just, I don't know.
1743
01:31:05,000 --> 01:31:07,600
I mean, they've had some breaks
go away, so I'll take Syracuse.
1744
01:31:09,720 --> 01:31:11,960
Yeah, I'm going to go Syracuse
as well.
1745
01:31:11,960 --> 01:31:15,040
Again, I'm kind of like Brian.
I mean, I think both teams are
1746
01:31:15,040 --> 01:31:20,360
solid teams, but, you know, not
the hype that kind of most
1747
01:31:20,360 --> 01:31:21,560
people were kind of throwing
out.
1748
01:31:21,560 --> 01:31:25,080
But I think Syracuse wins this
just because I need Pitt to
1749
01:31:25,080 --> 01:31:27,160
lose.
So we're going to go.
1750
01:31:27,160 --> 01:31:30,600
We're going to go Syracuse.
There we go.
1751
01:31:31,200 --> 01:31:35,480
Miranda's riding with us, guys.
Jason is going the other way.
1752
01:31:36,160 --> 01:31:37,800
He's he's taking the Panthers
here.
1753
01:31:38,160 --> 01:31:40,440
I hope you're wrong, Jason, so
I'm going to let you know that
1754
01:31:40,440 --> 01:31:43,960
right now.
Shelton Moss, where are you
1755
01:31:43,960 --> 01:31:47,040
going this.
Week Let's Go game day is going
1756
01:31:47,040 --> 01:31:50,760
to Indiana for the first time
ever after we got Cal a couple
1757
01:31:50,760 --> 01:31:53,960
weeks ago.
My goal is for What is that?
1758
01:31:54,240 --> 01:31:58,600
Does that mean the only place of
the Power 5 to never host is it?
1759
01:31:58,600 --> 01:32:00,800
Is it official now?
No, it's not official.
1760
01:32:00,800 --> 01:32:02,520
There's still like.
Five.
1761
01:32:02,520 --> 01:32:05,040
That's 5.
Yeah, like they've never been to
1762
01:32:05,040 --> 01:32:08,000
Syracuse, but a couple others.
But my goal is for everyone to
1763
01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:11,080
host except for UVA.
That'd be that'd be a admirable,
1764
01:32:12,520 --> 01:32:14,800
most admirable.
Yes, yes.
1765
01:32:15,480 --> 01:32:17,480
So, but anyways, I think this
will be a really fun match up.
1766
01:32:17,480 --> 01:32:19,360
There is some uncertainty with
Andy and his QB.
1767
01:32:19,560 --> 01:32:23,520
That being said, I will take
Washington because again, I
1768
01:32:23,520 --> 01:32:25,480
just, I think it is coming off a
big win.
1769
01:32:25,680 --> 01:32:27,280
They don't know if their QB is
going to start.
1770
01:32:27,600 --> 01:32:32,240
So give me the Huskies.
You know what, I'm going to have
1771
01:32:32,240 --> 01:32:35,040
to go the other direction here.
I think, I think Indiana's
1772
01:32:35,040 --> 01:32:36,520
playing really good football
right now.
1773
01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:41,040
I think if the quarterback is
able to go, I'm going to like
1774
01:32:41,040 --> 01:32:44,120
them to cover that 6 1/2.
So let me go with Indiana and
1775
01:32:44,240 --> 01:32:46,880
we'll and we'll see if the if
the quarterback goes, but I'll,
1776
01:32:46,880 --> 01:32:48,640
I'll take that that risk right
now.
1777
01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:52,400
Yeah, they made me, they made
all of us look foolish last
1778
01:32:52,400 --> 01:32:53,560
week.
I'm not betting against them
1779
01:32:53,560 --> 01:32:55,840
right now.
Give me Indiana, I'll lay 6 1/2
1780
01:32:56,160 --> 01:33:00,480
versus Washington.
You know Sheldon's got UW tally.
1781
01:33:01,040 --> 01:33:02,680
I got to go to Indiana, like
Curtis said.
1782
01:33:02,680 --> 01:33:06,040
It kind of made me look crazy,
you know, thinking just what
1783
01:33:06,040 --> 01:33:08,040
they did last week.
So the whole.
1784
01:33:08,080 --> 01:33:10,480
Crew look crazy.
Everybody rode with Nebraska and
1785
01:33:10,480 --> 01:33:13,280
we all had egg on our face.
Man, yes we did, but.
1786
01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:19,480
Miranda's riding with with the
boys here, and so is Jason.
1787
01:33:19,480 --> 01:33:21,000
So, Sheldon, you're out there on
the island.
1788
01:33:21,600 --> 01:33:22,880
On the island, it's his game.
I'm.
1789
01:33:23,480 --> 01:33:24,640
I'm the Kurt Curb Street right
now.
1790
01:33:25,080 --> 01:33:26,360
There you go.
All against the green.
1791
01:33:27,800 --> 01:33:31,920
All righty Taliban, what is your
game, Sir?
1792
01:33:32,240 --> 01:33:35,600
Man, we're going to go to, you
know, Vandy in in Texas here.
1793
01:33:36,040 --> 01:33:39,440
Texas is coming off of a loss.
You know, Vandy's kind of riding
1794
01:33:39,440 --> 01:33:42,440
high this this this year in
general.
1795
01:33:42,920 --> 01:33:48,720
I don't think Vandy wins this
game, but I think Vandy covers
1796
01:33:48,720 --> 01:33:50,520
that spread.
I think they're going to make it
1797
01:33:50,920 --> 01:33:54,080
a heart attack game for Texas
just because Povy is a gamer.
1798
01:33:54,480 --> 01:33:59,400
So I'm going Vandy this game.
You know, what I've learned
1799
01:33:59,600 --> 01:34:02,400
watching some of these
Vanderbilt games is that
1800
01:34:02,400 --> 01:34:06,520
Vanderbilt absolutely plays to
whatever the competition level
1801
01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:11,360
is of their opponent.
They, they, they played down to
1802
01:34:11,360 --> 01:34:13,960
the, to the ball states of the
world.
1803
01:34:14,520 --> 01:34:17,440
You know, they, they, they took
a loss to AG5 school, but they
1804
01:34:17,800 --> 01:34:20,920
beaten Alabama.
They played what, Missouri
1805
01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:24,440
Pretty tough.
You know, I think this is a team
1806
01:34:24,440 --> 01:34:27,480
that kind of matches the energy
of whoever their opponent is.
1807
01:34:27,480 --> 01:34:30,600
So 18 1/2 is way too much there.
So give me Vandy here.
1808
01:34:31,440 --> 01:34:36,160
Yep, I'm with you.
Way too much. 18 1/2 is way too
1809
01:34:36,160 --> 01:34:39,040
much.
And also watching Texas's
1810
01:34:39,040 --> 01:34:43,480
defense, they had a couple very
difficult times defending some
1811
01:34:43,480 --> 01:34:46,720
of those runs against Georgia.
And I know it's a little bit of
1812
01:34:46,720 --> 01:34:50,480
different style, but they've
shown sort of the flaw and it's
1813
01:34:50,480 --> 01:34:53,600
probably that rush defense.
And again, I don't know, Jerry
1814
01:34:53,600 --> 01:34:57,880
Keel and Tim Beck and Clark Lee
are going to lean on fall
1815
01:34:57,880 --> 01:34:59,960
control.
We're going to run the ball a
1816
01:34:59,960 --> 01:35:02,160
lot.
It's in Nashville.
1817
01:35:02,160 --> 01:35:04,160
Josh, just put that up there in
the chat.
1818
01:35:04,160 --> 01:35:08,520
Josh Young shout out.
I think they beat them by like a
1819
01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:12,040
field goal.
Texas is going to hold out, but
1820
01:35:12,040 --> 01:35:14,120
Vanderbilt is going to shock
their life.
1821
01:35:14,400 --> 01:35:17,000
Sheldon.
Vanderbilt's actually been one
1822
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:19,280
of the top ten teams in the
country in terms of
1823
01:35:19,480 --> 01:35:21,920
outperforming the spread based
on point totals.
1824
01:35:22,200 --> 01:35:24,040
For whatever reason, the
computers have just had a hard
1825
01:35:24,040 --> 01:35:26,640
time with this scene this year.
For that reason, I'm taking
1826
01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:28,920
Vandy. 18.5 just sounds way too
big.
1827
01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:33,560
Yep, and we are riding as a
family.
1828
01:35:35,200 --> 01:35:38,160
Sandy across the board, baby.
Sandy, across the board, you
1829
01:35:38,160 --> 01:35:40,320
ever think you see that a day in
your life?
1830
01:35:40,320 --> 01:35:44,360
Everybody picking Vandy with
points against a program like
1831
01:35:44,360 --> 01:35:48,520
Texas, Not I, not I.
All righty, let's roll next.
1832
01:35:48,520 --> 01:35:53,640
We've got Miranda's pick, which
I almost picked this one.
1833
01:35:53,800 --> 01:36:00,080
We got Notre Dame against
undefeated Navy, undefeated top
1834
01:36:00,080 --> 01:36:03,800
25 ranked Navy.
It's going to be at the gorgeous
1835
01:36:03,800 --> 01:36:08,080
Annapolis Stadium where I love.
I got a chance to go and watch
1836
01:36:08,080 --> 01:36:12,360
the Hokies play.
Navy getting 12 1/2 points.
1837
01:36:12,400 --> 01:36:14,120
Brian, where are you on this
one?
1838
01:36:14,520 --> 01:36:17,160
Yeah, and it's the 12 1/2 for
me.
1839
01:36:17,160 --> 01:36:20,080
I think Notre Dame does win this
game, but it's a very good year
1840
01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:22,880
for the service academies in
general and a very good year for
1841
01:36:22,880 --> 01:36:26,320
Navy so far.
And I think their style of play,
1842
01:36:26,320 --> 01:36:29,360
if, if Notre Dame doesn't jump
out on them quick offensively,
1843
01:36:29,360 --> 01:36:31,280
they're going to grind that game
to a halt.
1844
01:36:32,160 --> 01:36:34,800
I could see Notre Dame pulling,
pulling out a 10 point win, but
1845
01:36:34,800 --> 01:36:37,200
that's about it.
So I'm going with baby here.
1846
01:36:38,080 --> 01:36:41,680
Yeah, and you, you just
summarize exactly why 12 1/2 is
1847
01:36:41,680 --> 01:36:47,560
way too much.
And right now they are 7 and O
1848
01:36:47,560 --> 01:36:53,720
excuse me, 6 and O The closest
game they have had this year is
1849
01:36:53,720 --> 01:36:59,800
a 12 point win against Memphis.
They hung 56 on Memphis.
1850
01:37:00,600 --> 01:37:02,640
No one has slowed them down all
year.
1851
01:37:03,120 --> 01:37:06,200
I do think Notre Dame slows them
down, but not to the tune of 12
1852
01:37:06,200 --> 01:37:12,480
1/2 points.
Yeah, historically, historically
1853
01:37:12,480 --> 01:37:15,200
Notre Dame is dominated as
rivalry and they've they've had
1854
01:37:15,240 --> 01:37:17,040
a pretty easy time with maybe
even in recent years.
1855
01:37:17,040 --> 01:37:20,160
So I think it's a good match up
for for Notre Dame and I'll take
1856
01:37:20,160 --> 01:37:24,920
the Irish.
Laying 12 1/2 when that first
1857
01:37:24,920 --> 01:37:27,960
drive hold on when that first
drive takes 9 minutes, Sheldon
1858
01:37:27,960 --> 01:37:29,880
going to be worried about his 12
1/2 points.
1859
01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:32,640
Like why did that take so long,
Tally?
1860
01:37:33,040 --> 01:37:36,360
Yeah, I got to go Navy here just
for the fact that if I if I
1861
01:37:36,360 --> 01:37:38,240
didn't think my brother may kill
me.
1862
01:37:38,240 --> 01:37:42,000
So I'm going to go Navy.
From the fart.
1863
01:37:42,640 --> 01:37:46,160
Miranda's ride with Sheldon and
Jason's coming along with the
1864
01:37:46,160 --> 01:37:49,520
rest of us here.
By the way, betting on games
1865
01:37:49,520 --> 01:37:52,720
that involve teams that run the
triple option, like when you are
1866
01:37:52,720 --> 01:37:56,120
laying points, it's a it's like
one of the worst fields ever
1867
01:37:56,280 --> 01:37:59,040
when they when they get going on
their first drive and you'd like
1868
01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:01,000
you're laying 13 and it's like
that.
1869
01:38:01,000 --> 01:38:05,960
Even if they get a field goal
here, like we my team still
1870
01:38:05,960 --> 01:38:09,080
going to win this game, but they
win by like 9.
1871
01:38:10,760 --> 01:38:16,160
All right, we got our buddy
Jason Long, always playing a
1872
01:38:16,160 --> 01:38:19,800
little music, always picking a
game, occasionally going broke
1873
01:38:19,800 --> 01:38:23,400
and asking us for Venmo money.
He did not have to do that last
1874
01:38:23,400 --> 01:38:24,440
week.
He actually had a pretty good
1875
01:38:24,440 --> 01:38:27,760
week in his NFL bet.
So he got, he's not hitting me
1876
01:38:27,760 --> 01:38:31,520
and Brian up for gambling funds
this week, but he is going to
1877
01:38:31,520 --> 01:38:55,400
the Nebraska, Ohio State game.
I want to stand on you ain't
1878
01:38:56,000 --> 01:39:02,840
gonna start.
You better stop.
1879
01:39:02,840 --> 01:39:08,200
Not a thing to do.
When I said wipe down, I ain't
1880
01:39:08,280 --> 01:39:20,520
done.
This.
1881
01:39:47,320 --> 01:39:49,840
Hey, welcome back to Guitar
Licks and Gambling Picks.
1882
01:39:49,840 --> 01:39:52,840
I'm Jason Long and it's close to
Halloween, so it's playing
1883
01:39:52,840 --> 01:39:54,400
around with one of my favorite
songs.
1884
01:39:54,400 --> 01:39:56,920
I Put a Spell on You.
A bunch of people have covered
1885
01:39:56,920 --> 01:40:00,800
that song, say Nuna Simone, CCR,
The Sanderson Sisters.
1886
01:40:00,960 --> 01:40:03,600
Hell, I even recorded it last
year, put it on a little album
1887
01:40:03,600 --> 01:40:06,640
called Other People's Children
and you can find that anywhere
1888
01:40:06,640 --> 01:40:10,560
you buy or stream music.
Now, the original artist and
1889
01:40:10,840 --> 01:40:13,360
songwriter of that song is
actually a guy named Screaming
1890
01:40:13,360 --> 01:40:16,640
Jay Hawkins, who was born and
raised in Ohio.
1891
01:40:16,880 --> 01:40:19,960
That just so happens to be where
I'm looking at for this week's
1892
01:40:19,960 --> 01:40:23,600
pick.
Now, Nebraska travels to Ohio
1893
01:40:23,600 --> 01:40:28,040
State Saturday, and they're
looking like they're big, big,
1894
01:40:28,040 --> 01:40:30,920
big underdogs.
Ohio State is currently giving
1895
01:40:30,920 --> 01:40:35,760
up 23 1/2 points.
That's a scary amount of points
1896
01:40:35,760 --> 01:40:39,040
to give up, but in honor of
spooky season and screaming
1897
01:40:39,040 --> 01:40:43,560
jiffy, I figured might as well
go ahead and lay down 23 1/2
1898
01:40:43,560 --> 01:40:46,400
points.
Ohio State at home against
1899
01:40:46,400 --> 01:40:48,800
Nebraska Saturday night.
That's the way I'm rolling Go
1900
01:40:48,800 --> 01:40:54,800
bugging us.
I want to stay on you.
1901
01:40:54,840 --> 01:41:11,920
Me going to fire you better
start out of things doing and I
1902
01:41:12,280 --> 01:41:22,440
said why down I ain't lying.
I ain't gonna take that as you
1903
01:41:22,480 --> 01:41:23,080
will.
I ain't gonna take.
1904
01:41:23,560 --> 01:41:28,600
That on your.
Own I'll burn you and I will
1905
01:41:28,600 --> 01:41:33,960
stay on you.
We ain't gonna die.
1906
01:41:52,240 --> 01:41:58,840
See you next week, right?
So there we are, Nebraska, Ohio
1907
01:41:58,840 --> 01:42:03,840
State in the horseshoe, Ohio
State laying 23 1/2.
1908
01:42:03,840 --> 01:42:07,240
We see Jason throwing some big
gambling, laying a lot of
1909
01:42:07,240 --> 01:42:09,120
points.
Brian, what about you?
1910
01:42:11,360 --> 01:42:16,640
You know what, as our buddy in
the in the chat here, Josh Young
1911
01:42:16,640 --> 01:42:20,120
says, I think great value by
homes, you know, kind of brings
1912
01:42:20,120 --> 01:42:24,640
it back a little bit after that
absolutely disgusting output
1913
01:42:24,640 --> 01:42:27,320
last week.
So I'm going to Nebraska here.
1914
01:42:27,320 --> 01:42:31,400
Just this 23 1/2 is just a
little too much for a team that
1915
01:42:31,400 --> 01:42:34,520
in Nebraska.
I think it's still solid, if
1916
01:42:34,520 --> 01:42:37,800
not, you know, upper echelon big
10 team here.
1917
01:42:37,800 --> 01:42:41,960
So I think if you if you'd have
said that was like 2020 1/2, I
1918
01:42:41,960 --> 01:42:44,160
might want to pull the trigger,
but that that extra hook is
1919
01:42:44,160 --> 01:42:45,560
going to be a little too much
for me.
1920
01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:51,520
The field goal and the hook and
I just don't think they can lose
1921
01:42:51,520 --> 01:42:57,560
by that big again.
They lost by 49 last week, so I
1922
01:42:57,560 --> 01:43:00,160
think they lose somewhere
between 17 and 20 and I'll lay
1923
01:43:00,160 --> 01:43:02,800
23 1/2.
I think it is going to be a
1924
01:43:02,800 --> 01:43:04,440
roller coaster though.
I think it's going to be the
1925
01:43:04,440 --> 01:43:07,760
Curtis wave of emotions in that
game because it's going to
1926
01:43:07,760 --> 01:43:11,600
probably Ohio State, jump out
early, Nebraska, fight back, but
1927
01:43:11,640 --> 01:43:15,240
I'll take Nebraska.
I think, I think Nebraska's have
1928
01:43:15,240 --> 01:43:17,200
a really hard time scoring.
Their offense is pretty bad.
1929
01:43:17,200 --> 01:43:19,600
And oh, I would say this is #1
defense in the country.
1930
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:23,200
I'm I'm just going to go with
the the the bounce back theory
1931
01:43:23,200 --> 01:43:26,400
here and take Ohio State.
All right.
1932
01:43:26,680 --> 01:43:30,800
Yeah, I got to go to Nebraska
and it's just because I, I don't
1933
01:43:30,800 --> 01:43:34,280
want them to get beat that bad
because I don't want Ohio State,
1934
01:43:34,680 --> 01:43:39,400
a couple of my Ohio State
buddies to to be able to, to
1935
01:43:39,400 --> 01:43:42,680
brag about this season.
So I don't think Nebraska's
1936
01:43:42,680 --> 01:43:45,040
going to win the game, but I
don't think they're going to be
1937
01:43:45,040 --> 01:43:48,160
get beat by 23 and a half, 24
points.
1938
01:43:49,520 --> 01:43:53,080
All right, there we go.
Miranda says Nebraska.
1939
01:43:53,080 --> 01:43:56,080
So Jason and Shelton.
So there are the big screens
1940
01:43:56,080 --> 01:44:00,120
this weekend and it is a lot
more fun games to be watching
1941
01:44:00,120 --> 01:44:03,360
this weekend.
Hokey game is a noon kick
1942
01:44:04,080 --> 01:44:06,240
everybody.
So I'm going to be watching it
1943
01:44:06,240 --> 01:44:08,080
on replay.
I will not be blowing up the
1944
01:44:08,080 --> 01:44:11,720
chat because we got baseball.
I'll be watching like the 1st 10
1945
01:44:11,720 --> 01:44:14,200
minutes and then we go into
baseball game until like 3.
1946
01:44:14,200 --> 01:44:16,960
So y'all don't get the way out
to the regular coaster of
1947
01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:21,040
emotions of Curtis.
So, yeah, all right, anything
1948
01:44:21,040 --> 01:44:22,640
you're.
Just going to be cursing like
1949
01:44:22,920 --> 01:44:24,920
periodic, you like what the fuck
are we doing?
1950
01:44:24,920 --> 01:44:27,240
And then you go back to it and
then you like pull it up again.
1951
01:44:27,240 --> 01:44:29,320
Like what the fuck are we doing?
Yeah, that's what's going to
1952
01:44:29,320 --> 01:44:33,760
happen or I won't say anything.
If it's going well, you're going
1953
01:44:33,760 --> 01:44:37,120
to be like hey this is fun and
then like ignore your phone for
1954
01:44:37,120 --> 01:44:39,040
another 2.
Hours, my phone exactly.
1955
01:44:39,040 --> 01:44:41,520
Well, like 5 minutes.
I'll be pulling it up here and
1956
01:44:41,520 --> 01:44:44,560
there and everywhere.
Line just went back down to 10
1957
01:44:44,560 --> 01:44:48,000
1/2, not 11 1/2.
That line's crazy right now for
1958
01:44:48,000 --> 01:44:49,640
the tech game.
So we're we're moving up and
1959
01:44:49,640 --> 01:44:52,360
down.
I think they're I think they the
1960
01:44:52,360 --> 01:44:56,160
initial reaction was national
media saying, you know, we
1961
01:44:56,160 --> 01:45:00,440
weren't getting Ames King and
then Brinky saying day-to-day,
1962
01:45:00,440 --> 01:45:02,400
week to week, you know, we don't
know yet.
1963
01:45:02,400 --> 01:45:06,280
So it probably moved jumped up
two points and they, you know,
1964
01:45:06,320 --> 01:45:08,800
correcting it back with that
that one point there.
1965
01:45:08,800 --> 01:45:10,840
So.
Yeah, absolutely.
1966
01:45:11,360 --> 01:45:13,040
All righty.
Anything else to add fellas
1967
01:45:13,040 --> 01:45:15,280
tonight?
Great time.
1968
01:45:16,200 --> 01:45:19,280
Great time here.
I mean, you got all kind of
1969
01:45:19,280 --> 01:45:22,080
sports on right now.
NBA season started again this
1970
01:45:22,120 --> 01:45:25,320
today.
You got basketball, you got
1971
01:45:25,320 --> 01:45:30,000
baseball, you got football.
Great time of year for a sport.
1972
01:45:30,080 --> 01:45:32,760
Say what now?
Hockey's back too, don't forget.
1973
01:45:33,200 --> 01:45:36,160
Hockey's back, too.
I mean it starts.
1974
01:45:36,400 --> 01:45:38,520
Friday night.
Dude, you got it.
1975
01:45:38,640 --> 01:45:40,440
It's a great time to be a sports
fan, man.
1976
01:45:40,960 --> 01:45:43,920
I mean, if you like to bet and
lose money, you can lose a lot
1977
01:45:43,920 --> 01:45:46,600
of money right now.
So go ahead and just dump all
1978
01:45:46,600 --> 01:45:48,640
your money on whatever you feel
like dumping it on.
1979
01:45:49,280 --> 01:45:52,480
So this is I'm excited.
I think this is what we we've
1980
01:45:52,480 --> 01:45:55,440
talked about this in the past,
like this is the sports week,
1981
01:45:56,360 --> 01:45:59,440
like it is the sports week
because World Series hockey,
1982
01:45:59,440 --> 01:46:03,520
basketball, like get you get
your fixes in this week.
1983
01:46:03,800 --> 01:46:07,120
So it's like really from this
Friday until like next Friday or
1984
01:46:07,120 --> 01:46:10,400
whenever the World Series in
it's like every single major
1985
01:46:10,400 --> 01:46:14,920
sport in the US is going
football in full season mode.
1986
01:46:15,520 --> 01:46:18,880
It's a it's a beautiful time of
the year, probably the best
1987
01:46:18,880 --> 01:46:21,480
sports week.
Oh yeah, definitely the best
1988
01:46:21,480 --> 01:46:22,760
sports week.
You get a little bit of
1989
01:46:22,760 --> 01:46:25,640
everything.
There's nothing that you know,
1990
01:46:25,640 --> 01:46:28,840
most sports fans don't have some
interest in and and can get
1991
01:46:28,840 --> 01:46:31,320
excited about.
You know, you're kind of getting
1992
01:46:31,320 --> 01:46:34,080
to the meat of the schedule from
a football standpoint, whether
1993
01:46:34,080 --> 01:46:36,880
it's NFL or college.
You got the World Series out
1994
01:46:36,880 --> 01:46:40,240
there, start of the season.
Everybody's got the hopium.
1995
01:46:40,240 --> 01:46:42,360
When you when you look at, you
know, the hockey in the in the
1996
01:46:42,360 --> 01:46:46,960
NBA, you know, you're starting
to get some early contest in,
1997
01:46:47,080 --> 01:46:49,520
you know, college basketball,
men's and women.
1998
01:46:49,520 --> 01:46:51,600
So you're starting to see a
little bit of that start to come
1999
01:46:51,600 --> 01:46:55,000
into play, you know, that'll
start, you know, tipping off
2000
01:46:55,000 --> 01:46:57,120
about the time that the World
Series is wrapping up.
2001
01:46:57,120 --> 01:47:01,200
So it's a really good time of
year for a sports fan.
2002
01:47:01,200 --> 01:47:03,720
And I think you just kind of got
to soak it up a little bit and
2003
01:47:03,720 --> 01:47:05,800
enjoy it because.
You know, that's it it.
2004
01:47:06,280 --> 01:47:09,480
It goes away pretty quick.
Sit down, grab your favorite
2005
01:47:09,480 --> 01:47:12,160
food, grab your favorite
beverage, kick your feet up and
2006
01:47:12,160 --> 01:47:15,680
enjoy the weekend.
And with that, let's wrap up
2007

Buddy, it's going to be a fun
night tonight.
9
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,840
We got a few, few guests on and
we're going to lead off with our
10
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,920
first one tonight.
I know everyone has been excited
11
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,680
about the the pyramid.
We've seen all the 1999
12
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,400
comments, that's awesome.
But tonight we're going to have
13
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,000
on the kind of the brainchild
behind this.
14
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,960
It's Taylor and Mel Chrisman
with Press * Packaging and
15
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:32,920
Creative Karting joining us to
talk a little bit more about
16
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:34,000
that.
So let's go ahead and bring them
17
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,960
on here.
Taylor, Mel, how you doing
18
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:38,280
tonight?
Hey, we're good.
19
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,000
How are you guys?
Doing great, doing great.
20
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,440
Thanks for jumping on.
Just to kind of kick it off, you
21
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:46,960
know, I think everyone's excited
about this.
22
00:01:46,960 --> 00:01:49,560
Tell us a little bit about how
this got started and a little
23
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,080
bit of the history of the goal
post and and how this this
24
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:58,520
venture came to be.
Yeah, so I was 12 years old and
25
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,040
we were at that game, a whole
family.
26
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,400
And, you know, we watched the
the goal posts go down and
27
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,680
everyone going crazy.
And my dad just kind of looked
28
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,880
at my mom and he was like, we
got to get that goal post.
29
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,360
We, we got to do something with
it.
30
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:11,920
I don't know what, but we got to
do something with it.
31
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:19,000
And by some crazy stroke of
luck, my dad had a mutual friend
32
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,520
with Frank Beamer.
And they got to talk in And
33
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,320
Frank was like, hey, I got a
piece of it, Bring your truck.
34
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,120
And so my dad went back.
It was about a about a week
35
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,840
later.
And sure enough, there was the
36
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:37,680
18 foot crossbar and they loaded
it up, hauled it out and they
37
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:42,520
got the idea to cut it up into
little one inch squares here and
38
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,120
put it in a little acrylic
pyramid.
39
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,960
So you just, you know, you can
hang it up on your wall and just
40
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:49,720
look at it or whatever you want
to do.
41
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,080
That's awesome.
That's awesome.
42
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,240
And so this is kind of the I
guess the second run of that.
43
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,720
I know you guys did the, the
first run there a little bit
44
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,760
after the game after you came
across the, the goal posts there
45
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:08,520
in 99.
So what was the, the idea like
46
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,600
just 25th anniversary or like
it's, it's time to it's time to,
47
00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:15,160
to, to run it back a little bit
and, and, and see what we can,
48
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,200
can do this go round.
Yeah.
49
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,400
So it is the 25th anniversary of
that undefeated season.
50
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,440
And we know that there's so much
nostalgia kind of building right
51
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,920
now.
We're definitely kind of in a
52
00:03:28,920 --> 00:03:30,880
new era with Virginia Tech
football.
53
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,040
And I think everybody, I mean,
everybody's really been talking
54
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,080
about, you know, it's come up a
lot, the 25th anniversary of the
55
00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,000
undefeated season.
So we thought why not
56
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,200
commemorate that and do another
version of the pyramid.
57
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:51,960
So so that was kind of the idea
behind re redoing it or
58
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:57,640
releasing like a whole new set.
Yeah, and it's really cool.
59
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,720
I mean, when you look at it, I
mean, I love the obviously the
60
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,800
celebrating the 25th anniversary
and, and the, and the iconic
61
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,480
iconography in there is really
cool.
62
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,640
And obviously getting the, you
know, the piece of that goal
63
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,080
post is, is, is huge.
And when we look at the fact
64
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:17,880
that I think just in recent, you
know, years here, you know, I
65
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:20,600
think we've seen the 99 team
celebrated a whole lot more.
66
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,800
You know, you get Michael Vick
back on campus a lot more the
67
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,400
last couple years.
He was there this past Thursday.
68
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,640
So I mean, it's really awesome
to kind of see things come
69
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,320
together, especially considering
that, you know, when we look
70
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:40,200
back at that, that 20th
anniversary, it wasn't quite as
71
00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,880
celebrated in the way I think a
lot of fans and, and football
72
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,160
alumni thought it should have
been.
73
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,400
So it, it's it's awesome that
you guys are doing this and kind
74
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:49,680
of bringing some attention to
that.
75
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,000
And I think, you know, just that
whole groundswell about that
76
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,840
team has been been pretty big
this year.
77
00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:59,520
Yeah, absolutely.
Let's ask this, Amel, you said
78
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,880
you were there in 1999 at that
game, obviously, and your dad
79
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,160
was like, let's get the goal
posts.
80
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,040
But obviously if you were there
for that game, you were there
81
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,720
for a lot more.
Taylor, I know you're a big fan
82
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,400
as well.
So go back to 1999.
83
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,320
You're 12 years old.
What was like the game for you?
84
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,120
Was that the game or was there
something else in the season
85
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,520
where it was like this team
special?
86
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,360
And I am.
You're at the age of where like,
87
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:26,920
I'm going to remember this
forever.
88
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:32,200
Yeah, it we, it was actually our
first year having season tickets
89
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,920
was that year my parents knew,
you know, I think the whole, the
90
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,040
whole fan base knew it could be,
could be a pretty special
91
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,960
something, but I don't think
anyone knew exactly what was
92
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,000
coming.
And that was quite a, quite the
93
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,120
year to pick to, to start season
tickets.
94
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:52,120
But you know, you always have
one of those things where
95
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,360
something happens and you no
matter what, you always remember
96
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,800
exactly where you were when it
happened.
97
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,360
And it was the West Virginia
game for us.
98
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,120
It was an away game.
And of all the, the craziness,
99
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,520
we were like, we, we got to get
out, out of the house.
100
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:07,600
Can't watch the game for a
minute.
101
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,920
Let's take a break.
And we were out and my mom was
102
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,760
listening on her her yellow
Walkman headphones right when
103
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,440
when Mike took it down the field
and then Shane hit that field
104
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:18,360
goal.
That was one of those things
105
00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,880
that just seared in my mind and
that that did it for me, that
106
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,400
West Virginia game.
I, I feel like everyone has a, a
107
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,200
miracle in Morgantown story,
like everybody, everybody that's
108
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,840
a tech fan remembers what they
were doing, who they were with
109
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:37,240
when that moment happened, just
because of the, the, the stakes
110
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,760
that were at play for what the
Hokies could potentially be that
111
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,800
year.
And I feel like, you know, that
112
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:46,440
drive kind of encapsulated the,
the, the fighting spirit of, of
113
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,160
that team that year, because
they, not all those games were
114
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:50,640
pretty right?
Like there were, there were some
115
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,520
blowouts, but not all those
games are pretty.
116
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,680
It was a, it was a, it was a
hard fought game in, in, in that
117
00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,840
particular instance.
And you know, like I said, I
118
00:06:58,840 --> 00:07:02,320
think I think all of us hockey
fans remember where we were when
119
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,600
we saw that drive take place.
And funny enough, I was on the
120
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,720
hill at UVA in Charlottesville
because I was playing high
121
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,920
school football at the time and
my head coach was a big UVA fan.
122
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,040
So we were watching UVA, Georgia
Tech.
123
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,200
They're on the hill because he
took, he took all of us for like
124
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:27,200
an end of season trip down there
and they put it up on the
125
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,680
screen.
They put the, the, the West
126
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,000
Virginia Tech game up on the
screen.
127
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:35,520
And so that all these UVA fans
are like pulling for West
128
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,800
Virginia here.
And there's like a a bunch of us
129
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,440
on our our team that are hokey
fans that just happened to be
130
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,480
there with our coach and we're,
you know, talking trash there on
131
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:47,160
the hill.
And yeah, sweating bullets a
132
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,040
little bit there until the end.
But once, once, once, once it
133
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:51,720
happened.
There was a whole lot of fun
134
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,200
trash talking there on the hill
that day.
135
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,800
Oh yeah.
Tally what you got.
136
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,440
And I'm just sitting back trying
to figure out how I can get my
137
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,000
hands on one of them here me.
It's about paying for it.
138
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:06,400
I'm trying to figure out how to
do that.
139
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,560
I know some people's been asking
in the some people's been asking
140
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,600
in the in the chat how they can
get it.
141
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,600
Curtis, you want to tell them
how they can get their hands on
142
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,880

Go ahead and tell you where
143
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,880
y'all can get it.
If you go to the Boundary Corner

So y'all definitely can go there
148
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:47,080
to get it.
But Mel and Taylor have been so
149
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,680
nice to actually we're giving
one away.
150
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,680
If y'all have not noticed there
has been more than one time.
151
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:56,680
If we take a look here, there
are a lot of 1990 nines being
152
00:08:56,680 --> 00:08:58,560
pulled up.
So Mel and Taylor, I don't know
153
00:08:58,560 --> 00:09:01,280

your entry we're going.
To So pretty simple.
167
00:09:44,560 --> 00:09:48,240
Pretty simple.
I mean, one click, a couple of
168
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,880
clicks, hang out with us, watch
Curtis drink a little beer,
169
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,800
watch Sheldon do some cussing.
You know that's name stuff that
170
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,600
we do all week.
All you got to do is put 1999 in
171
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,280
the chat, subscribe and hang out
with us for a little bit.
172
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:07,080
And you got your opportunity to
win A to win one of the one of
173
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,880
the pyramids, which is awesome,
man, just to see it, the how
174
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,480
it's made, what it looks like to
have a piece of history in any
175
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:18,080
man cave or woman she shed,
whatever you want to call it.
176
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,360
Just any sports fan would love
to get their hands on it.
177
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,280
And again, if you got it like
that, just go to the website and
178
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,720
buy it, which is probably what I
have to do because I don't think
179
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,200
they're going to rig it for me
to win.
180
00:10:28,560 --> 00:10:32,040
I've tried behind the scenes to
get them to read it for me to
181
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:33,320
win.
So I'm probably just going to
182
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,720
have to go buy it.
Tally you don't have like 3 or 4
183
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:40,000
burners on YouTube.
I, I, I've tried it, I've tried
184
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:40,800
it.
That's the one we're.
185
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,240
Going to get real suspicious if
it wanted burners win.
186
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,120
I see Bama Hokey 69.
I'm not putting that in there.
187
00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:51,320
My problem is I like to talk too
much.
188
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,800
So when I start talking on the,
yeah, when I start talking on
189
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,920
the on the burners is when
people's like, Oh yeah, we
190
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,320
already know that voice.
We know where that is.
191
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,160
So.
Sheldon, you got anything to ask
192
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,560
before?
I've got a couple more questions
193
00:11:04,560 --> 00:11:08,160
I want to ask Mel and Mel and
Taylor here.
194
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,920
No, no, man, I just, I just
think it's great that we're,
195
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,080
we're kind of preserving this,
this piece of history.
196
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,160
I know we did it for the, for
some seats in, in Castle
197
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,960
Coliseum where they they took
some seats out and then they
198
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,880
kind of sold them off.
So I just, I think it's great.
199
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,000
I can't wait until we beat
Clemson in November and then we
200
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:27,640
can tear it on the goal posts
and throw it in the duck pond.
201
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,080
And then 20 years from now,
we'll be we'll be auctioning off
202
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:31,440
pieces from the Clemson goal
post.
203
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,840
So I like it.
I like.
204
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,680
It so so let me ask this right
now, obviously both y'all being
205
00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:42,920
fans and everything.
Any interactions with the
206
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:48,440
current coaching staff and just
where they stand or and also who
207
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,680
is your favorite Hokie?
We we all have different
208
00:11:50,680 --> 00:11:52,560
favorite Hokies on this.
So I'd just love to hear a
209
00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:54,920
little bit more about how you
feel about the new coach staff
210
00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:59,560
plus who you're I random the
double.
211
00:11:59,560 --> 00:12:02,320
Tie in the double tie in by
Robbie there with.
212
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:07,040
Respect.
I'm, I'm a fan of the new
213
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,120
coaching staff still.
I, I think they're the ones that
214
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,120
they're trying and we're, we're
starting to see it.
215
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:18,240
Things are coming together.
They're rounding out like I I
216
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,440
was watching the last week in
the Shelton year breakdown of
217
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,200
how Kyron is getting better and
better, especially through the
218
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,560
intermediate.
Let's go, let's go.
219
00:12:28,680 --> 00:12:30,440
That that summed it up to me,
the.
220
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:31,960
Whole the whole question.
Staff.
221
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:36,200
Summed it up to me that we're,
we're starting to really take
222
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,400
strides to get to where we all
think that we we should be at.
223
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:42,280
So yeah, I'm a fan.
I think.
224
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:44,960
I think we're going in the right
the right direction for sure.
225
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:49,720
Yeah, that it's exciting.
I think it's exciting time for
226
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:54,360
everybody and I think, you know,
hiccups to to start the year
227
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,760
aside, I think we're starting to
see this team round into what we
228
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,560
thought they could be and, and
hit that level of play that that
229
00:13:01,560 --> 00:13:04,520
we expected.
And it's it's exciting because
230
00:13:04,560 --> 00:13:06,520
you know, we talked about it
before we jumped on here.
231
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,000
I've talked about it with
Sheldon a few times, with Curtis
232
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,600
and Tally a few times.
You know, everything that we
233
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:16,120
still wanted from a beginning of
the year goal is still, you
234
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,080
know, in play and we we just got
to go out there and take care of
235
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:22,080
business.
So it's, it's exciting and, and
236
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,640
to Sheldon's point, you know,
let's go out and beat Clemson
237
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,240
and have another goal post to
talk about.
238
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,440
Yes, Sir, Can't wait.
Definitely.
239
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,680
Hey, one question I got for you
guys is where where y'all at
240
00:13:33,680 --> 00:13:36,400

Oh, so we're in Christiansburg,
VA, So we're like 10 minutes
243
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,320

244
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,200

So I'm trying to see who's got
this, who's got this cool room
248
00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,760

249
00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,240
Yeah.

Hey, you are winning in life.
That ain't just a flag.
254
00:14:12,680 --> 00:14:14,800
Hey.
Let's let's throw it up there.
255
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,160
Typically we have it in our gym
and it's it's a pretty sick gym
256
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,640
and it's got lots of Virginia
Tech memorabilia in there.
257
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,040
So, you know, inspirational.
There we go.
258
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,640
Very nice and there.
Is Jason likes what he sees,
259
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,560
does like?
What he sees right there, right
260
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,440
there.
So before we just wrap this up
261
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,200
again, we want to again, thank
you all for not only taking a
262
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,520
few minutes out of your evening.
We understand everybody works.
263
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,440
Everybody's got things they've
got to do.
264
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:45,080
But we also want to say thank
you for like unleashing this
265
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:49,240
back to the Virginia Tech fan
base, giving us the opportunity
266
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:53,880
to give it away.
And I don't know what else to
267
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:55,040
say.
I'm I'm with Shelton.
268
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,960
It's like that Clemson Yang
needs to be coming.
269
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,480
Take it, take a piece, tuck it
in the duck pong.
270
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,760
Now, Mel and Taylor, I don't
know how y'all are going to get
271
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:07,400
it, but if that happens, Mel,
you're going to, y'all are going
272
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,960
to have to like go get the truck
that night because I, I don't
273
00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:12,200
think it's going to be sitting
in Lane Stadium or sitting at
274
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,440
the duck pond long.
I don't think so either.
275
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,920
Yeah, you better be.
Camped out, I agree.
276
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,520
And, and, and that'd be too
Curtis's point, just yeah, thank
277
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,520
you for being good stewards of
this piece of memorabilia for
278
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,320
over the years and just, you
know, bringing it back and
279
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,200
giving it back to to the hokey
fans that will take good care of
280
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,600
and cherish it.
No, nobody deserves it more than
281
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,880
the the hokey fan base.
We've been up, we've been down
282
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,400
and there's a lot that have been
there the whole time.
283
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,720
So yeah, fanbase deserves
everything like this I can get.
284
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,200
Yeah.
And honestly, we've had stories
285
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,720
since we released this, like, I
was there.
286
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,240
I really wanted to, like, touch
that goal post.
287
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,400
And, you know, they were like,
too far away or they just
288
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:53,880
weren't kind of like in the
fray.
289
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,200
But we've had people say that
was like, my favorite memory
290
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,840
ever.
And to be able to, like, own a
291
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,800
piece of it is pretty cool.
They can just look at it and
292
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,920
remember, you know, that they
were there.
293
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,880
And I, I do think it's, it's a,
it's such a special moment that
294
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,280
I think a lot of people
remember.
295
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,080
Yeah, I mean, for a lot of
people, it is kind of the
296
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:16,240
pinnacle of, you know, what
hokey football has achieved in
297
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,120
in most of our lifetime.
So I mean, it's really it it
298
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,640
it's absolutely a piece of
history.
299
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,560
And again, just, you know,
thanks for sharing the love
300
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,240
here.
Thank you guys.
301
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:26,640
Yeah.
Thank you guys for what you do.
302
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:27,800
Yeah.
Yep.
303
00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:31,160
We appreciate it guys.
And again, if you want to know
304
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,760
where to get that, go to the
boundary corner website goal
305
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,560
post pyramid if you just want to
purchase 1 outright and then
306
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,360
flaunt it to those who don't
win.
307
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,000
And like listen, I just bucked
up the money and just paid for
308
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:45,360
it 19990.
And again, if you want to see it
309
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,160
just so y'all can see how
passionate it is, we are like
310
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:51,520
when we start this, we just get
flooded with 90 nines out of
311
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,080
everywhere.
So it's pretty sweet.
312
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,360
And again, we appreciate y'all
partnering up with us on this
313
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:01,200
and hopefully in the very near
future we can all catch you,
314
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:05,440
catch up with each other down in
Blacksburg at Lane Stadium, we'd
315
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:05,920
love.
That.
316
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,040
Awesome, well y'all take care
and y'all have a good evening.
317
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:10,000
Thank you.
Thanks.
318
00:17:10,079 --> 00:17:11,200
Guys.
See y'all.
319
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:14,520
Thank y'all.
So cool.
320
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,079
It's just so cool.
I mean, there's no more another
321
00:17:18,079 --> 00:17:20,280
way to say it.
It's just cool to know that is
322
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,000
there.
Tally, just tell your wife
323
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:24,920
that's what you want for
Christmas.
324
00:17:25,079 --> 00:17:28,240
She'll get it for you and you
know.
325
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,360
You can put it right over your
shoulder there next to the
326
00:17:30,360 --> 00:17:31,520
bottle of liquor.
Right there.
327
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,600
Yeah, we see.
It and that's a good I think
328
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,040
that's a good place for it I
think that's a good place for it
329
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,680
yeah I got a couple of spots I
think I can I can I can put it
330
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:43,560
up in it around the house so I
mean 'cause that actually looks
331
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,520
a little bit elegant you know
what I'm saying 'cause you got
332
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,800
the nice glass to go on it it
doesn't look like a mini helmet
333
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,160
you know what I'm saying like a
lot of the stuff that I have
334
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:53,640
but.
Hey don't don't trash the mini
335
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,080
helmets.
Though I love mini helmets
336
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:56,720
though.
I got plenty man, I love mini.
337
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:58,840
He's just saying he can put that
in the living room and.
338
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:01,000
Wait, I can put that in the
living room, man, I can put that
339
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:04,320
like right on the mantle or.
Something it's pretty all right.
340
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,800
Well, boys, we got a lot to
break down tonight.
341
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,880
We are going to be talking with
a special guest from the rec
342
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,920
tech, right?
I get that right.
343
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,400
Rick talk, Rick.
Talk.
344
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,680
I can't spell the nightmare.
Talk with Know the enemy.
345
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:20,840
What?
What?
346
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:23,600
Kind of shirt you got on, man.
Y'all know what I got on?
347
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,000
So in case y'all were wondering
and y'all paid attention way
348
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,680
back in May, we asked Coach Pry.
Well.
349
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,000
Tally asked on behalf of
everybody.
350
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,120
Coach, we love the shirts.
Can you send them to us?
351
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:40,560
And y'all, they didn't, they
didn't they didn't skimp on it.
352
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,080
They sent all of us the hunger
drills shirts I had to wear.
353
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,120
It's now the perfect time of
year for this shirt.
354
00:18:46,120 --> 00:18:48,520
It's nice light.
It's a perfect for a fall night.
355
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,840
I had to bring it out tonight.
I mean, it's just a sick shirt,
356
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,080
so.
Curtis, you're getting called
357
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,600
out already, man.
Sorry, sorry Rex.
358
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,640
Sorry man, I completely spelled
it wrong in a rundown.
359
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,520
I'm very sorry.
So you can you can land basement
360
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,200
when you get in here.
So don't worry, Curtis messes up
361
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,520
names all the time.
Oh yeah, don't take it all.
362
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,960
Righty well, we got that later
on, but let's start with Tell
363
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,440
the Truth Tuesday with a massive
victory of the BC 4221 on
364
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,960
Thursday night and I'm going to
go through here real quick on
365
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:25,400
some things we said.
First of all, Shelton Moss said.
366
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,120
We have to embrace Thursday
night.
367
00:19:28,120 --> 00:19:32,120
Shelton did this team, the
coaching staff and the fans
368
00:19:32,120 --> 00:19:35,640
embrace Thursday night.
Absolutely one of the most
369
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,720
historic rushing performances
we've ever seen from Mahokey,
370
00:19:39,120 --> 00:19:41,600
with Bashawk Tooten setting the
single game record-breaking
371
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:46,000
Darren Darren Edmonton's record
APR with another 4 sack banger
372
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,680
put up 42 points.
You know, you give up, I mean
373
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,320
you give up three turnovers and
still win by 21.
374
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,760
I mean that's, you know, that's
about all you can ask for.
375
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,440
And we took the the all time
lead and most wins on Thursday
376
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,880
night with our 25th win since
1994, more than any other team
377
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:03,720
in the country.
So back in sole possession of
378
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,240
Thursday night.
So it is officially our nights
379
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:07,800
and nobody else's.
There we go.
380
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:11,280
We embraced it.
Jonathan Talley, you said we
381
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,040
needed to limit Tommy
Castellanos legs.
382
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,840
Did we limit that man's legs?
Yeah, we turned Castellanos into
383
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,000
a castaway.
He was out of him.
384
00:20:20,360 --> 00:20:23,920
He was cast off fumbling the
ball.
385
00:20:24,120 --> 00:20:27,480
I don't know if he's still hurt.
I mean, I hope nobody's hurt,
386
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,520
but you know, fumbling the ball,
seeing ghosts getting hit,
387
00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:34,880
chasing him around, APR on his
head like a toupee.
388
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,680
I mean, it was a good night.
In his face, on the sideline.
389
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:43,080
It was a good night, man.
It was just, I mean, you seen a
390
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,120
lot of great performances.
But again, back to what Curtis
391
00:20:46,120 --> 00:20:50,080
said, talking about my key to
performance was limit his, limit
392
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,920
his legs, and I think he may
have had like 58 yards on 20
393
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,360
carries.
So I'll take that, you know.
394
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,680
I'll take that as long as it was
18.
395
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:00,720
So you do the math.
It's even worse after that.
396
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:04,920
Brian Siegler, you said get off
the field on money downs and I
397
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,080
think we did that pretty good.
Yeah, especially in the first
398
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,280
half, I think they only had two
conversions in the first half.
399
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:16,360
Really good job overall from for
throughout the game they're
400
00:21:16,360 --> 00:21:20,160
getting off on money downs and
to that point, a lot of getting
401
00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:23,840
off the field on money downs is
Tally's point there of limit
402
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:25,360
what Castellanos does with his
legs.
403
00:21:25,360 --> 00:21:29,120
He was not scrambling that well.
We did a good job of containing
404
00:21:29,120 --> 00:21:30,680
them, keeping in the pocket,
getting them down.
405
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,080
We needed to and the, you know,
the results speak for
406
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:39,080
themselves, I think. 100% and
mine was just finish, finish,
407
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,600
finish, finish.
We talked about BC allowing Sax
408
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:48,760
and APR 8 all night, 4 sacks,
his 3rd 4th sack game of his
409
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,600
career here at Virginia Tech 2
this season.
410
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,280
And then in the offensive side
of the ball, touchdowns, not
411
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:55,840
field goals.
You know how many times we went
412
00:21:55,840 --> 00:22:01,520
in the red zone Thursday night?
How many how many times 4 did we
413
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:06,160
kick any field goals?
Nope, 4 touchdowns.
414
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,680
And as we talked about it,
though, they were not a shabby
415
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,960
red zone defense.
They had only given up five
416
00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,000
touchdowns all season in the red
zone.
417
00:22:15,120 --> 00:22:17,200
We damn near got to that number
Thursday night.
418
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:21,160
So we told the truth about what
our keys were and we talked
419
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,080
about what went well.
Sheldon already hit it up
420
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:28,840
Tooting breaking the Rush game
record 18 carries for 266.
421
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,840
Insane that.
Is sick.
422
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,280
I'm telling you, but that's what
I'll say.
423
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,400
I think we talked about this a
couple of weeks ago and I was
424
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,400
like, or even I can't remember
if we talked about it on here.
425
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,800
We posted on Twitter some, some
happened, but we talked about
426
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,240
getting him the ball more.
I mean, since the beginning of
427
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,480
the year, getting him the ball,
letting him fill the game.
428
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,560
Like the offense has to go
through him.
429
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,640
And it looked like they decided
that, OK, that's what we need to
430
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,120
do.
Let's, let's get the ball in our
431
00:22:56,120 --> 00:22:59,960
playmaker's hands.
And he, he showed up and showed
432
00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:01,680
out.
And again, you know, like I
433
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:05,920
said, for whatever reason, some
people were saying, well, it's
434
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,880
BC.
Well, I remember at the
435
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,880
beginning of the season, people
tab BC to be the ACC winners
436
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,520
after they beat Florida State.
And you know, they were, I mean,
437
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,200
they took Missouri to the to
the, to the brink of a, a win.
438
00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,000
And people thought, Oh, they're
going to kill us.
439
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,640
And then once we beat them, it's
like, oh, it's BC.
440
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,320
No, that's a good team.
You know, they had, they had to,
441
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:30,040
they had the sack leader on
their team or he was tied for
442
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,560
second when we played them.
But again, we showed up and
443
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,120
showed out so and we did it in
orange.
444
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:37,280
Go ahead.
Hey.
445
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,320
Orange he looked quicker without
the brace.
446
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,760
Hey Sheldon, though, we we got
to give Tootin a lot of credit.
447
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:49,200
But you've been saying all year
about the offensive line and and
448
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,000
you and you dug up the stat
earlier.
449
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,000
I think actually a couple days
ago is when I asked you about it
450
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:58,440
and y'all if, if, if what
sheldon's about to tell you
451
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,920
continues to happen.
The Sky's the limit for Basil
452
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,760
Tootin this year.
So typically what what I like to
453
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,880
do to evaluate offensive line
play is look at the percentage
454
00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,800
of yards before and after
contact, just to see how you
455
00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:15,640
know how how far it is up field
that a running back can get
456
00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,200
before it gets touched by a
defender.
457
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,960
So, you know, coming to the
game, Tech was not very good at
458
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,720
yards before contact per rush.
I think they were 108th, if I'm
459
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,760
not mistaken in the country.
And so, but that totally turned
460
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,640
around against BC.
So against the Eagles, 6060% of
461
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,040
text rushing guards on designed
attempts came before contact.
462
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,720
That was by far the highest
percent percentage of the
463
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,680
season.
It was like 25% above their next
464
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,520
best performance and on a per
rush average is about 5.7.
465
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,040
So, you know, we saw on Tune's
80 yard touchdown run in the
466
00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,640
second quarter, he was not
touched at all.
467
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,800
I mean, the only time he got
touched was, you know, when he
468
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:54,720
was in the end zone and that
that, you know, that the
469
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,240
defender was trailing after him
trying to swipe the ball away.
470
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,120
But I just, I thought that Olin
did a great job blocking and I
471
00:25:00,120 --> 00:25:03,320
felt like it was the first time
all year where Tune was able to
472
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:06,120
get to the second level on such
a consistent basis.
473
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,720
And once he's at the second
level, man, like it's a wrap.
474
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,240
Like he can, he can make you
miss, you know, he can just, you
475
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,120
know, run, run right around you.
Like he's a tough guy to stop
476
00:25:14,120 --> 00:25:16,600
once he once he gets past that,
that first level.
477
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,920
So I thought it was by far the
best performance of the season
478
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,920
for the online.
It wasn't like tune carrying
479
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,280
their show.
It was a complete team
480
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,360
performance.
Guys are making their blocks.
481
00:25:25,360 --> 00:25:28,240
The Moore brothers were awesome.
Xavier Chaplin had another
482
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,520
awesome performance.
I highlighted him on Twitter.
483
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,560
Just all around fantastic
performance in terms of
484
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,960
blocking.
If you can get Shelton.
485
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:40,800
If you can get Shelton to make a
highlight tape for a offensive
486
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:45,720
lineman, he doing so that
offensive lineman is doing some
487
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,640
work.
But I've seen Curtis, I didn't
488
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,080
mean to cut you off.
I've seen Steven put a put a a
489
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,000
post up and said, you know, both
of those big runs were on
490
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,280
chaplain's side.
Got to go back and watch that
491
00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:02,080
tape because get to know 79
Johnny Garrett on one of those
492
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,640
big runs, he was the one who
wrapped in the hole and and
493
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:09,760
cleared cleared the trash.
So Chaplin's doing an awesome
494
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,960
job, but we also got some young
lineman that have stepped up and
495
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:14,800
started doing their jobs as
well.
496
00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:18,200
So Garrett definitely made that
big run happen.
497
00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:20,760
Johnny Garrett got about 20
snaps.
498
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:22,840
Brody Meadows got about 20
snaps.
499
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,880
We're seeing it build for next
year.
500
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,200
And Sheldon, I think you might
have tweeted this out of Brian.
501
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:31,720
Maybe you did.
Chaplin was the PFFO lineman
502
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:36,720
again this week, like the entire
country, the highest graded guy
503
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,200
all week.
Chaplain is just coming to his
504
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:42,040
own.
And Sheldon, what you deal with
505
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,480
that tape like watch him against
Donovan.
506
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,400
Donovan is an elite pass rusher
in college and that's who it was
507
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,760
against he he held him at Bay
the whole game.
508
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,840
Held him at Bay the whole game.
Brian, let me ask you real
509
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:58,280
quick, because Sheldon mentioned
it already, who did the BC
510
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,360
offensive line not hold at Bay
the whole game?
511
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,400
That would be Mr. APR.
I mean.
512
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:10,200
Antoine Powell Ryland had
himself a game, you know, went
513
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:14,720
from, you know, started the week
fifth in the country in Sachs,
514
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,680
finished the weekend even after
everybody else played number one
515
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:22,960
in the country in Sachs and just
had a hell of a game across the
516
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,240
board.
You know, had had that fumble
517
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:30,360
recovery stats from from
Castellanos there, had some
518
00:27:30,360 --> 00:27:33,920
other key tackles, couple other
tackle for loss.
519
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:37,480
So he went out there and just
wrecked shot for four quarters
520
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,400
and it was really impressive to
watch.
521
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,880
And you know, when we talked
about top performances in that
522
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,840
game, there were a lot of them,
you know, from Kyron being
523
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,760
pretty much perfect in the first
half, throwing the football what
524
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,000
Toon did on 2 long runs and
being consistent between the
525
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,800
tackles all night.
And then you look on the other
526
00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:04,080
side, APR second game with four
sacks this year and just had had
527
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:06,240
Tommy Castellanos in hell for
four quarters.
528
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,400
Had that offensive line in hell
for four quarters and I'm
529
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:13,360
sitting here Brian, as you were
watching that game and and, and,
530
00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:16,400
and if y'all over here, Brian
and Tally talk about when they
531
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:19,600
watch the game, they don't watch
the outside, they watch in the
532
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:21,400
middle of the field.
They watch the line play.
533
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,000
They all know how y'all do that.
Trained eyes I guess.
534
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,880
But Brian, when you were
watching APR like as your
535
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,120
offensive lineman brain was
working, did at any point you
536
00:28:30,120 --> 00:28:33,000
say, yeah, I don't think they
can stop him.
537
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,280
Like I don't think they're going
to have an answer unless they
538
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:39,040
start like basically giving all
the support to that side.
539
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,040
Well-being they were given
support to that side.
540
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,680
I mean, several times that he
got to the quarterback, he got
541
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,320
chipped by running back or you
got chipped by a tight end.
542
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:51,160
Like they weren't ignoring him
and he was still getting there.
543
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,800
And I think that's, that's the
thing that's most impressive.
544
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:56,160
I think you got to give a little
bit of credit to the secondary
545
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,720
as well, because it does, you
know, you got to be able to hold
546
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,960
up quick in that, in that
coverage for sacks to get home.
547
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:07,360
But they were able to do that
and APR was just tearing them up
548
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,160
all night.
It was, it was lovely.
549
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,360
It's like a officer lineman.
Most of the time when you look
550
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:17,160
across the line from you, you
expect the guy to look a certain
551
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:18,720
way that's going to do certain
things.
552
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,520
APR is kind of a tweener with
his size.
553
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:25,960
When you look at him, you don't
expect him to have, you know,
554
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:29,800
maybe elite quickness that he
does when he's getting around
555
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,840
people.
But he's not like a super big
556
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,760
guy.
So when I say super big, I mean,
557
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,600
you know, tall 6566 anywhere
around that.
558
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,280
So you don't feel like, you
know, he's going to bend as much
559
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,280
as he is.
You know, I'm saying like he has
560
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,840
like tremendous bend when he's
coming around the around the
561
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:49,360
corner and he's really, really
quick to be, you know, kind of
562
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:53,240
that that stocky size.
He's not one of those tall lean
563
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:54,120
people, you know what I'm
saying?
564
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,560
He's got some girth to him.
So I think sometimes it even
565
00:29:57,560 --> 00:29:59,640
when you watch it on tape and
then when you line up across
566
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,760
from somebody, you look at them
like, OK, I should be able to do
567
00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,240
this or they shouldn't be able
to bull rush me.
568
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,520
But he's got some things.
And again, I got to go back to
569
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,920
what JC has been able to do.
He's pulled some different some
570
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,800
different tricks out of his hat
that shows that he does have
571
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,640
pass rush moves.
It's not just a bull rusher.
572
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,480
He's not just a speed rusher
like he sometimes has to, you
573
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:23,960
know, use a jab step or
different things like that.
574
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:27,520
And I don't think that it's no
thanks to him when you sacked
575
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:30,160
somebody four times in one game,
multiple times.
576
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:35,280
I mean, you're doing some work.
So he's he's getting some moves
577
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:39,040
that I guess people kind of
shortchanged him for when he was
578
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:40,960
at Florida.
But thank you Florida.
579
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:46,440
Y'all didn't deserve it.
I saw the stat, he's like at
580
00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,000
what, like about 21 sacks since
he became a hokey and I think it
581
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,800
as a combined team they have 38.
Yeah.
582
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,680
Since that time frame.
So, yeah, he's facing crazy.
583
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:58,760
He's facing big time.
All right, so there's all the
584
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,000
stuff that went well.
And that was pretty much 55
585
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,680
minutes of the game.
But I'm a I'm a realist here.
586
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,640
What went bad was that 5 minutes
in the third quarter.
587
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,640
And I mean, OK, first of all,
them come out of halftime
588
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,760
putting a basically putting a
drive together.
589
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,520
That's not shocking.
That's not shocking, right?
590
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,400
Not to a lot of people,
especially somebody like Bill
591
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,280
O'Brien who has coached a long
time.
592
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,000
He made some adjustments, right?
And they moved down.
593
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,480
It was the next few minutes with
just some really out of
594
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:33,840
character things from the team
and, and I know I have been at
595
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,320
baseball.
So I'm like following this thing
596
00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,320
on my phone like this is over.
I go down to my neighbor's house
597
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:40,640
down the street here where Brian
and Sheldon have both been.
598
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,600
They got the fire pit going
watching the game.
599
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:50,600
And I sit down, pour Sagamore,
pour nice Sagamore whiskey and
600
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,680
all that crap happens and I'm
like, you gotta be kidding.
601
00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:54,240
Am I going to have to like
leave?
602
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,000
Where were you?
Where was y'all's mentality at
603
00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,400
Sheldon?
You were there.
604
00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,840
Where was your mentality when
that happened?
605
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:05,040
Because I mean, the place is
buzzing, it's electric.
606
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,120
And then 5 minutes like that
happened.
607
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:11,800
I was pretty chill honestly.
Like I know people kind of
608
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,000
flipped out about that, but like
it was, it was 2 dumb turnovers.
609
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,920
I mean, we gave them
essentially, you know, 40 total
610
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,200
yards of field position to work
with.
611
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,400
Like, you know, it's not like I
don't think the defense fell
612
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:22,680
apart.
I just think, you know, you had
613
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,840
a couple critical turnovers and
you know, once they once they
614
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,760
got past that, they went right
back in the field, scored a
615
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,240
touchdown, they got the big stop
1/4 down and then boom, that was
616
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,000
it.
So I think I think for me, you
617
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,880
know, I trusted the way they
played in the first half.
618
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,920
I think, you know, if you're if
you're a dominant scrimmage and
619
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:39,960
you know, you're moving the ball
downfield consistently, I think
620
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,720
you know, you know, eventually
the you know, the process will
621
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,360
will pay off, so to speak.
So, you know, just a couple big
622
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,160
mistakes there.
It's kind of really all there
623
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:48,440
was to it.
But I was I was honestly never
624
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:53,640
really worried that much Cali.
I was all right until Curtis got
625
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:59,040
back in the chat like ramp my
anxiety up and I I had to put
626
00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,480
the phone on on charge and stop
looking at it if.
627
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:05,640
If y'all don't know about Curt
so I'm going to share this real
628
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,960
quick before I let you finish
tally, but go ahead.
629
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,920
All right, so our buddy Pete B
likes to live tweet during
630
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:15,120
games.
Curtis is basically Pete B that
631
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:19,040
doesn't live tweet during games.
Curtis does it.
632
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:21,960
It's it's very high and low.
It's very high and low.
633
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:25,760
It's an emotional roller coaster
and depending on where you are
634
00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,280
at the time is going to depend
on what type of Curtis you get.
635
00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:33,840
Yeah, Curtis is Curtis was he
was on one in the in the shout
636
00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:36,640
out people.
Sheldon was kind of still
637
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,800
Sheldon.
You know, he's what he's saying
638
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:43,400
most of the time, like whatever
is what he does, he's just kind
639
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:45,560
of, I told you all, we're better
than them, we're going to win.
640
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,400
And I'm like, well, Curtis ain't
saying we're going to win.
641
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,920
So I'm kind of leaning Curtis's
way because I'm watching the
642
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,200
game as well.
But yeah, no, it was fun though,
643
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:57,640
man.
And like you said, we went
644
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:02,160
through that stretch and it was
just kind of like, let me see,
645
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:05,000
actually, I had, I had to do
something with my son.
646
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:07,200
I had to get him.
And I ended up taking him to go
647
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,880
get something to eat and we
leave to go grab him something
648
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:12,480
to eat.
And I come back and it's like,
649
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:15,679
what's happened?
It's like a different team, you
650
00:34:15,679 --> 00:34:17,639
know?
And then we give them, you know,
651
00:34:17,639 --> 00:34:20,320
2 turnovers and next thing you
know, it's like, oh Lord, here
652
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:24,040
we go again.
But we overcame.
653
00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,280
So I was all right with that.
Yeah.
654
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,159
To, to me, it kind of, I think
it kind of started a little bit
655
00:34:30,159 --> 00:34:37,080
with the, the, the Colin Schlee
call there on that drive opening
656
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,600
the second-half.
I feel like that kind of fiddled
657
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:43,239
with our mojo a little bit.
Then we had another, I think
658
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,080
drop on that, on that series
that ultimately we ended up
659
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:49,639
getting off the field punting
and then they drove down and,
660
00:34:49,679 --> 00:34:51,520
and, and did their thing on that
first drive.
661
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:53,360
And, you know, then you have a
couple mistakes.
662
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,920
The next thing you know, 4
scores becomes one score and
663
00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:00,920
you're sweating a little bit.
To Sheldon's point, I never got
664
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:05,560
worried, but I was definitely
like, this is not going to be as
665
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:07,760
pretty as it should be now
because of this was these are
666
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:09,360
these are mistakes that you
can't make.
667
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:13,760
But at the same time, like I
wasn't, I'd seen what we had
668
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,200
done in the first half.
I thought that if we could just
669
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:19,120
stop the bleeding it it was
going to be fine because we've
670
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,640
shown that we can handle them at
the line of scrimmage.
671
00:35:22,240 --> 00:35:24,720
Well, I.
Won't give all of I won't give
672
00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:28,360
all of the family secrets away,
but I want to read some of the
673
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:33,520
the live messages from Curtis
during the game we had.
674
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:39,040
Y'all I'm about to leave.
This isn't cool y'all.
675
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:43,680
This is stupid.
That's all in the course of
676
00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:44,960
about two minutes right there,
though.
677
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,920
I mean it was only 5 minutes.
Yeah, I know it was.
678
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:51,160
Probably 12 minutes total time,
5 minutes runtime.
679
00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:52,840
Tally, I think it's somewhere in
that chain.
680
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:56,840
I literally told you, Tally, I
have to do this here so I can be
681
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:01,160
somewhat calm in somewhat here
on Tuesday nights.
682
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,240
Oh, we're curse was in there
somewhere.
683
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:05,600
Oh yeah, we're curse always
coming up.
684
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,720
That's always coming up.
Anytime we do something, we're
685
00:36:07,720 --> 00:36:08,920
cursed.
I think Tally might have froze
686
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:10,800
on us.
I think Tally did freeze on us.
687
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,120
He's probably reading the really
bad ones right now.
688
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:15,480
But you know what?
That's a that's a stylish pose.
689
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:17,720
At first I thought he was like
building suspense.
690
00:36:17,720 --> 00:36:18,680
Oh yeah.
And he was going to look.
691
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:21,080
Up.
And then he gets.
692
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,720
Moved for 30 seconds.
I'm like, not so much.
693
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:27,360
Can I say this, though, about
the coaching staff in this team
694
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,520
and these players?
So we've been down numerous
695
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,560
times this year, go back to
Vandy and Rutgers.
696
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:36,440
We've had bad things happen like
the ODU game.
697
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,800
The one thing I think this
coaching staff has instilled and
698
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,600
even goes back to last year's
resiliency amongst the team
699
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,200
because you don't see them.
They're like Shelton, something
700
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:49,200
bad happens.
They don't panic, they aren't
701
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,200
losing their minds, they aren't
going around doing dumb shit.
702
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:57,960
So effectively that happened and
then we just calm down and about
703
00:36:57,960 --> 00:37:02,480
5 minutes later we stopped them
on 4th down touchdown.
704
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,320
We stopped them again, three and
out touchdown.
705
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:11,680
So the reality is, I hate it.
I have to get it out.
706
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,280
If I don't get it out, I would
lose my mind here on every
707
00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:16,080
Tuesday night.
I don't think that would be much
708
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:21,080
fun for watching, but when bad
things happen, this team and
709
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:22,720
this coaching staff does not
panic.
710
00:37:23,160 --> 00:37:26,880
And we've now seen that in
numerous examples in the last
711
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,200
year.
Plus, you got one more good one
712
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,480
right there.
Yeah, one more good one.
713
00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:33,840
Or did you put it away?
Huh.
714
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:35,960
Are you talking to me?
Yeah.
715
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:40,560
Oh no it was just it was just a
week cursed and then we cursed
716
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:46,400
laugh out loud after we scored.
So no, we cursed and then we
717
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:53,160
still cursed left.
The the funniest, the funniest 1
718
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,760
was Tally responding.
They cursed too then and then
719
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:00,360
and that was after the I think
that last turnover they had.
720
00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,120
You got to love it, got to love
it.
721
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:04,480
All right, Just a couple more
things as we close out To Tell
722
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:09,000
the truth segment, I think I was
not prepared for no field goals.
723
00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:11,800
I expected them to stop us at
least once.
724
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:16,240
I expected someone to kick.
Somebody kick no field goals.
725
00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,600
Can you make a bet on that on
the betting side?
726
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:21,120
So I believe there will be no
field goals kicked in this game.
727
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,640
Well, they tried.
Oh, that's they, I think they
728
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,920
tried to run a trick play there.
Yeah, because they were, because
729
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,880
that guy was moving from the
field, like I think they were
730
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,320
trying to run a trick play and
it just when he bobbled it, they
731
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:37,400
were fucked.
So can we just say this too as
732
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:38,920
we move on?
We got because we do want to hit
733
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:45,520
a little something, the version
of this team since Rutgers, they
734
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,880
just got to keep being it and
they've got to keep improving
735
00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:52,240
because this team that keeps
showing up statistically,
736
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:58,080
mentally, physically again, I,
I, I think they can stand toe to
737
00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:59,840
toe with a lot of good teams in
the country.
738
00:39:01,720 --> 00:39:03,280
No, I agree.
I agree.
739
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:05,320
You're right on, right on point
with what you're saying with
740
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,080
that, You know what I'm saying?
Just what needs to happen moving
741
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,080
forward is just, you know, I
think we're going to touch over
742
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:13,720
a little bit later too.
Just continue like feeding into
743
00:39:13,720 --> 00:39:17,720
your identity, you know, like
you're seven games in.
744
00:39:17,720 --> 00:39:20,000
You know what you can do and you
know what you can't do?
745
00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,600
Feed into that.
Yep, I think that's that's been
746
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,400
the big thing for us is that,
you know, what we've seen since
747
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,920
the start of conference play has
been a team with an identity on
748
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:35,000
both sides of the football, a
team that has been playing, you
749
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:41,840
know, 111 moment or here aside,
I think a lot better as a unit.
750
00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:45,240
And I'm thinking not just the
team itself, but also the way
751
00:39:45,240 --> 00:39:48,320
the coaching staff has been
during the games.
752
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,960
I think I think they've called a
better game from a coordinator
753
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:53,720
standpoint.
I think Brent Pry has been
754
00:39:53,720 --> 00:39:57,320
better from a game management
standpoint in that same time
755
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,920
stretch as well.
So we have an identity now.
756
00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:04,000
It's just.
About keeping it consistent and
757
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,440
putting that best product out
every week because we know what
758
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,200
the ceiling looks like now,
we've seen it.
759
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,680
We just got to be consistent
with it going forward.
760
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,960
So you get anything to add on
top of that, anything you got to
761
00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:19,440
say we got to keep doing better
moving forward.
762
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,080
I think we've been bringing it
up pretty well and you know, we
763
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,360
can talk about this a little bit
more depth later on, but I think
764
00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,280
I think Bowen has added some
some complexity to the run game,
765
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,160
kind of building off some of
that base off they've been doing
766
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:32,360
with like split zone, for
instance.
767
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:35,720
So you know, the rushing numbers
continue to get better.
768
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,320
I think as the offense
progresses, the online gets
769
00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:41,680
better, you know that there's
more synchronization, I guess.
770
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:45,040
So I just, I, I really like the
way the office is going kind of
771
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:49,240
set up by the run game and also
drones to getting more polished
772
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:51,000
as a passer.
Yeah.
773
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,480
And I know we've talked about it
a couple weeks now and I've
774
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:56,400
talked about it with Sheldon
some off air, like what Bowen's
775
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:59,320
doing with motion in the run
game in the past.
776
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:03,280
Game is a lot more complex and
kind of what I expected from
777
00:41:03,280 --> 00:41:05,360
this offense kind of the start
of the year.
778
00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:08,800
I know you got to you got to,
you know, you got to layer some
779
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:10,560
of that in.
You can't come out week 1
780
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,400
gangbusters show your whole
playbook.
781
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:18,080
But what they've been doing with
motion has been really clever to
782
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:23,960
getting guys into one-on-one
situations in the passing game
783
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,560
and also to kind of get the
linebackers eyes where they
784
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:32,200
shouldn't be in the run game.
All righty, so real quick as we
785
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,800
we we get a cap on that right
now with Tell the Truth Tuesday.
786
00:41:36,240 --> 00:41:39,920
We do want to discuss this.
There was a commitment earlier
787
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,720
this week and it's another
legacy commitment.
788
00:41:42,720 --> 00:41:47,360
Brennan Johnson, Big Brother on
the team, dad a legend, coach
789
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:51,640
Lauren Johnson's son, 6 foot 190
LB linebacker out of Highland
790
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:55,960
Springs, a three star 87 on 247
composite.
791
00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:58,960
I don't think anybody was
shocked by this.
792
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,680
I think the timing was when it's
going to happen.
793
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:06,200
But Brian Talley, I don't know
if y'all had a chance to see
794
00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,480
tape or film on Brennan.
A lot of people say he's better
795
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,880
than his brother.
A lot of people say he's a dog
796
00:42:11,880 --> 00:42:15,160
and linebacker.
Yeah, he just, when I've watched
797
00:42:15,160 --> 00:42:18,000
him the last couple of years,
he's moved around to a couple of
798
00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:20,280
different spots.
I didn't really know what he'd
799
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:25,240
project to play in college just
because of kind of the different
800
00:42:25,240 --> 00:42:28,840
things he's done in high school.
But very, very solid player.
801
00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:32,480
I know last year or maybe two
years ago, you know, when they
802
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:36,200
talked about him when Braylon
was still in high school, they
803
00:42:36,200 --> 00:42:39,600
talked about, you know, Brandon
a little bit more, just the
804
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:42,000
things that he was able to do on
the team.
805
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,040
So I know some at that time,
some they were talking about him
806
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:49,800
getting a lot more looks than I
guess what he's really paid
807
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,400
attention to or that he's fed
into, you know, moving into a
808
00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:57,600
senior year.
So was it really a surprise to
809
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,440
see him commit?
But like you said, kind of
810
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:03,000
timing was OK.
When is it going to happen?
811
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:06,080
Because you can't really lose,
you know, that type of recruit
812
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:08,600
because you know what happens
when we lose that type of
813
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,640
recruit?
They go somewhere else and we
814
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:14,320
see their name and lights all
the time or they come back to
815
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:17,920
lane and or we play them and
they end up killing us for 2-3
816
00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:19,920
years.
So good to see him.
817
00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:25,880
It's good to see him commit.
Showing anything on Vernon
818
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:26,440
Johnson?
Nope.
819
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:29,880
I.
See.
820
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:31,520
Nothing.
All he's asked.
821
00:43:31,520 --> 00:43:33,440
All he's asked.
I know you're not recruiting
822
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:35,720
like you once were.
All right, Tally, you said you
823
00:43:35,720 --> 00:43:38,680
wanted to bring something up
real quick before we get over to
824
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,920
know the enemy.
Yeah, just because we got, you
825
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:43,880
know, got another Virginia
recruit.
826
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,480
So of course you're looking at,
I mean, recruiting's kind of
827
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,800
been been LAX for us lately.
You know, we kind of had some
828
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,080
people already in the boat, so
not really been paying
829
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:55,480
attention.
But of course we get a new
830
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:56,760
recruit.
So the first thing you want to
831
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:58,680
do is, OK, where's the class
stack up?
832
00:43:58,720 --> 00:44:01,120
You know, where do we stack up
in Virginia, Things like that.
833
00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:06,720
And so right now I'm looking and
nationally we are 46 and
834
00:44:06,720 --> 00:44:12,800
recruiting, I think we're right
at a 87 on our recruit somewhere
835
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:18,320
around that.
And the thing that was more, I
836
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:22,720
guess I don't want to say
alarming, but we, we don't have
837
00:44:22,720 --> 00:44:24,800
a top 10 recruit.
You know what I'm saying?
838
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:29,120
I, I didn't know this, I didn't
pay attention to this until now.
839
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:32,760
I thought I went to sleep and we
had a couple of top 10 recruits
840
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,680
and I woke up and we got none.
I think our top recruit is
841
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:39,400
number 13 in Virginia and I'm
talking about Virginia recruits.
842
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:41,400
Everybody in the chat if y'all
don't know.
843
00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:43,840
Composite, 9247.
Ring, right.
844
00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:49,400
So I think Brett Platterbaum is
our top recruit out of Virginia
845
00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:54,960
and he is 13 now.
So I wanted to ask you guys,
846
00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:59,720
what do y'all think about that?
Is that a staff problem or is
847
00:44:59,720 --> 00:45:02,640
that a ranking problem?
Well, well, first of all, Brett
848
00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:05,200
Clatterbaugh just a couple
months ago was the number eight
849
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:06,760
player in Virginia.
Right.
850
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,960
And Michael Matthews was the
number five player in Virginia,
851
00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:13,840
right?
So for some reason, they both
852
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:17,480
got their four-star removed and
they got bumped down.
853
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,840
Christian Evans, I'm sorry, I
got tally.
854
00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:23,520
You know, I got hot on this.
Christian Evans went to the
855
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:29,360
Under Armour camp in Maryland
over the summer where all the
856
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,320
big time East Coast prospects
come, right?
857
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:33,520
Don't know about that camp.
It's one of the big ones.
858
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:37,960
He's the fucking in defensive
MVP and he gets 0 bump.
859
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,160
He's in the 20s still.
How is that possible?
860
00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:45,600
How, how do you go here and
outperform every other elite
861
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,040
crew to this camp and you don't
even get a pump?
862
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:55,040
I think the thing that was most
like crazy to me was to see
863
00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:59,560
where Jeff Overton is like he's
32nd in Virginia.
864
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,440
Wasn't he like the Gatorade
player of the year last year and
865
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:05,000
to go look at his stats this
year?
866
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,560
I think there was 6 and O, 7 and
O.
867
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:14,280
He's still running over people
and he gets take it down again.
868
00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:17,600
I, I don't understand it.
So I had to get it off my chest
869
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,240
and ask some people, anybody
who's following recruiting in
870
00:46:20,240 --> 00:46:23,080
the chat, please let me know
what's going on.
871
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:26,640
Anybody who's in the Virginia
area in front of the church,
872
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,680
anybody who's in Virginia who's
who's paying attention to these
873
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:31,240
games a little bit more than I
do.
874
00:46:33,320 --> 00:46:36,520
What's going on, man?
Are these, are these running
875
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:40,840
backs from Virginia that good
that over to the 32 and in
876
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:42,200
Virginia?
I don't get it.
877
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,040
I don't want to say they're
against tech because I don't
878
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,240
know that, but I'm just saying
something.
879
00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:51,440
Some don't quite smell right.
You know what I'm saying?
880
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:55,200
That milk kind of spoiled me.
That's all I'm going to say.
881
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:57,360
Brian, what you feeling about
this stuff, man?
882
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:00,120
I'm kind of right there with
you.
883
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:03,240
You know, I think it's weird
seeing.
884
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:06,320
I think the downgrades are
weird.
885
00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:11,000
I think the ones that didn't get
bumped up like Overton and like
886
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,880
Evans is probably the bigger
crime.
887
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:18,000
They were already committed.
They were already committed so.
888
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:22,960
Yeah, exactly.
So you know, it, it's going to
889
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,840
be interesting to see that.
And I think, you know, rankings
890
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:27,240
matter.
We we talk about rankings.
891
00:47:27,240 --> 00:47:29,560
Rankings matter to a point,
right?
892
00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:35,880
But I think this staff has shown
a really good job of evaluating
893
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,600
talent and evaluating talent for
what they're trying to do.
894
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,880
So as long as they're getting
the guys they want, I care a
895
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:45,840
little bit less.
But obviously from a perception
896
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:48,120
standpoint, we're going to talk
about rankings.
897
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:51,040
We have to talk about it.
So that that's just kind of is
898
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:53,800
what it is.
They're always going to be
899
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,160
discussed because the numbers
are out there.
900
00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:58,200
Sheldon, you got anything on
this?
901
00:47:58,200 --> 00:47:59,760
Yeah, I mean.
I don't really.
902
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:01,840
I.
I don't pay too much attention
903
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:03,200
to recruit rankings like you
used to.
904
00:48:03,240 --> 00:48:06,240
I think you know individuals.
There's always going to be some
905
00:48:06,240 --> 00:48:08,960
politics involved with, you know
what a guy's rated.
906
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:11,040
I don't think, you know, it's,
it's probably more helpful to
907
00:48:11,040 --> 00:48:12,640
look at it from a team
perspective, you know, over
908
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:15,120
multiple years.
And you know, I was, I was, you
909
00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:17,560
know, talking this to a friend
who who was pretty good with
910
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:19,920
numbers the other day.
Like recruiting rankings are
911
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:22,240
more helpful if you're looking
at like 3-4 five year sample
912
00:48:22,240 --> 00:48:25,320
sizes in a single season, much
less a single player.
913
00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:27,000
I just went, I just don't really
make too much of it.
914
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,600
So I think like Curtis said, the
staff is and Brian too, the the
915
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,760
staff has done a pretty good job
with evaluations to me if they,
916
00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,360
if they think a kid is worthy,
but then you know, he's good
917
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,760
enough for me.
So I'm just I wouldn't make too
918
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:42,120
much deal about 33*4*5*
personally.
919
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:46,200
Well I'm making it about the
four-star 247.
920
00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:48,040
Y'all better get your shit
together.
921
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:51,600
How are you dropping people
down?
922
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:55,840
We trying to get up in the top
25 and we looking we have 46
923
00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,520
well you.
Do the math though, you start
924
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,920
and I was doing it today after
you sent me that message.
925
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:06,080
There's a lot of teams in front
of us that have 20 plus recruit,
926
00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:10,120
so we're sitting at 17 and 46.
Yeah, the average is only a
927
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:11,960
little bit lower than what we
want to be at.
928
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,960
The 80 sevens where it's like, I
think if, if you did that, we're
929
00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:16,960
like 31.
Yeah, I mean, we want to be at
930
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:18,640
about 80.
Our our, our squad.
931
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:22,960
We want to be at about 88.
So if we're at 87 1/2, we're in
932
00:49:22,960 --> 00:49:25,360
that ballpark, I think.
I think the problem is that we
933
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,960
we were, we were there.
We were at like just below that
934
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:30,560
80.
We're like 87.7 and then they.
935
00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,280
Bumped them down and they the
bump down, they bump and you
936
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:36,320
know, it hurts more because you,
you get bumped down the two
937
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,280
people that are probably waiting
the the average up the most.
938
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:43,160
So it you know, it, it hurts a
little bit more in that
939
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:47,240
percentage.
But I mean, I'm kind of at a
940
00:49:47,240 --> 00:49:50,880
point where, you know, like I
said earlier, if they're guys
941
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,880
that the staff wants and they
think they can play every just
942
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:56,880
about every young guy,
especially on the defensive side
943
00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,200
of the ball.
But I mean, we're seeing on the
944
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:00,360
offensive side of the ball,
everybody they're bringing in
945
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:04,680
has went out there and and had
some success on the field.
946
00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:09,840
So, you know, and and that's
with a team now that is is
947
00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:13,880
pretty veteran.
So if they're if they're
948
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:16,720
stacking guys behind them that
are able to kind of Wally pip
949
00:50:16,720 --> 00:50:18,800
some of those guys, especially
when injuries happen and things
950
00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:21,120
like that, I'm OK with it.
All right, tell, I'm going to
951
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,280
say one last thing before we do
a little break.
952
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:30,040
Read here and bring on rec talk.
Woodson was ranked 18th, Woodson
953
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:33,600
was ranked 18th, and there's
some players that have been in
954
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,800
front of him that he is
considerably outperforming,
955
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:38,880
including a couple that went to
Penn State.
956
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:43,400
So we'll move on from this and
as always, we are brought to you
957
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:46,760
by Count Stanley Pharmacy, your
friendly neighborhood pharmacy
958
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:50,960
located at three O 1 S Main St.
in Blacksburg.
959
00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:54,800
Go see Jeremy and let him
entertain you any day of the
960
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:57,960
week.
So now we move on to know the
961
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:02,400
Enemy and tonight got a buddy of
ours from Rec Talk coming in, so
962
00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:04,000
we'll go ahead and pull him in
here.
963
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,800
How's it going tonight, man?
It's going pretty good.
964
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:11,240
How are you guys doing?
Hey, I like the AKA there.
965
00:51:11,240 --> 00:51:12,920
I got to call Curtis out a
little bit.
966
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:15,920
Yeah, there you go.
I'm really upset about that and
967
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:18,440
I will never ever let it go.
Don't let it go.
968
00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:20,880
Ever.
You should never let it go.
969
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:24,000
So.
You know Curtis has butchered
970
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:26,560
some pretty pretty easy and
straightforward names in the
971
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,400
past there, so please don't take
any direct offense but
972
00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:31,240
definitely give him as much shit
as possible.
973
00:51:31,240 --> 00:51:33,040
Your running back's a nightmare
for you, though.
974
00:51:35,120 --> 00:51:36,920
How long did it take you to
learn to pronounce his name?
975
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:39,240
About about six months 6.
Months.
976
00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:44,240
It was it was facial.
Facial.
977
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:46,000
Oh, it was.
It was all bad.
978
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,720
Hey, don't, don't, don't ask him
to to to say Kelly Lawson,
979
00:51:49,720 --> 00:51:53,080
though.
Oh God, yeah, I need the
980
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:57,480
pronunciation guy.
But nobody Keely Kalai Kelly
981
00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:00,320
blew up.
I needed one of those those
982
00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:02,200
nights.
But rec talk, give us a little
983
00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:06,240
background on yourself, how you
started your podcast, and where
984
00:52:06,240 --> 00:52:09,840
folks can find you.
So I started mine right right
985
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:12,000
after the game, after we fired
Jeff Collins.
986
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,160
That's why, if you notice in the
chat, it probably didn't make
987
00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:15,880
sense to you when you said money
down.
988
00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:19,440
That was a big thing Jeff
Collins did, and I probably have
989
00:52:19,440 --> 00:52:23,680
40 hours of content just
absolutely hating him and
990
00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:26,520
talking about how dumb he is.
In fact, I went to North
991
00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:30,600
Carolina and I got seats 3 rows
back from where he stands and I
992
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:33,720
just yelled at him mercilessly
all game.
993
00:52:33,800 --> 00:52:35,560
And that last drive we had was
great.
994
00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:40,720
But I started right after
Collins was fired and only thing
995
00:52:40,720 --> 00:52:42,960
I've done right is just keep
making videos.
996
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:46,920
I don't know how watchable they
are but you know you just keep
997
00:52:47,040 --> 00:52:50,320
going on and and talking.
I mean it takes a certain kind
998
00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:53,640
of narcissist to talk for like 2
hours on a live show and and
999
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:55,440
think people are still listening
to.
1000
00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:59,600
That's what I've done.
I got to respect that, though.
1001
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:01,720
You got to respect that.
And, you know, you got to
1002
00:53:01,720 --> 00:53:05,360
respect the Jeff Collins hate
because I can definitely
1003
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:08,720
commiserate with what, what
they're dealing with.
1004
00:53:08,720 --> 00:53:11,920
And, and you know, it's UNC's
problem now and, and, and it's
1005
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:14,040
kind of fun to see the other
side of it when it's like, all
1006
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:15,080
right, well, that's your
problem.
1007
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:17,400
I'm going to talk my shit now
though because.
1008
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:19,760
Yeah.
You're catching the end of it,
1009
00:53:19,760 --> 00:53:21,600
right?
Now they're paying that moron
1010
00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:27,880
$1.1 million a year to give up
70 to JMU and I'm like man, I'd
1011
00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:30,240
screw up that game for 1/10 of
that for you guys.
1012
00:53:30,240 --> 00:53:33,240
Save you some money.
I mean, we need to get into
1013
00:53:33,240 --> 00:53:35,080
coaching.
I think some of you might be,
1014
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:38,200
but from the sounds of it, but
that's what I need to do, yeah.
1015
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:41,120
I've, I've dabbled in the past
and I think I could have went
1016
00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:43,760
out there and called a better
game against JMU, but you know.
1017
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:46,240
Do the opposite of what you're
doing, all one.
1018
00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:49,440
Right.
It keeps sending the same say
1019
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,960
calls in and they keep scoring
touchdowns.
1020
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:55,160
Try something else.
Tell you would think if he made
1021
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:58,240
just picked one play call and
stuck with the whole game he
1022
00:53:58,240 --> 00:54:01,120
wouldn't give up 70 maybe.
It's going to work at least like
1023
00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:05,120
10% of the time you'd think.
Yeah, all righty, so let's
1024
00:54:05,120 --> 00:54:06,680
always fun.
Getting a basketball score in a
1025
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:08,360
football game.
How you?
1026
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,440
Do they're ready for basketball
season, aren't they?
1027
00:54:10,920 --> 00:54:13,120
Yes, they are.
All right, well, let's get into
1028
00:54:13,120 --> 00:54:14,520
it.
Let's talk a little bit about
1029
00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:17,640
the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
here and let's talk about the
1030
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:19,960
offense.
And you know y'all got your
1031
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:23,480
offensive coordinator Buster
Faulkner and a name that
1032
00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:27,320
everybody in Hokie Nation will
forever hate as you're Co OC and
1033
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:28,680
Chris Winky.
Fuck that guy.
1034
00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:33,120
Fuck him forever.
So what I was wondering because
1035
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:36,720
when you have one like that and
Faulkner's tight ends coach
1036
00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:39,360
Winky's working with
quarterbacks, who is the primary
1037
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:42,280
play caller for the Georgia Tech
Yellow Jackets on the offense?
1038
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:45,000
It's interesting because it's
changed.
1039
00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:46,880
So it's definitely Buster
Faulkner.
1040
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,040
Buster Faulkner is definitely
the play caller.
1041
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:53,600
But when Key was interim and we
had Chip Long, Winky actually
1042
00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:56,680
called the plays for the last
half of the season.
1043
00:54:56,680 --> 00:55:00,000
And if you ask any Tech fan, I
mean, Winky is the heir apparent
1044
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:03,400
to become the OC.
You know, Tech struggled on
1045
00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:06,640
offense this year.
Buster, we had to pay Buster to
1046
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:10,320
keep him from going to places
like Kentucky or going to an SEC
1047
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:13,560
job.
But yeah, but Busters play
1048
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,520
caller going a little rough this
season, but we'll we'll see if
1049
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:19,880
we can dial something up for the
Hokies Saturday, the Tecmo Bowl.
1050
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,960
There we go.
There we go the, the, the two
1051
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:26,560
schools that can claim the
moniker Tech and, and everybody
1052
00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:29,040
knows who they're talking about.
Let's talk a little bit about
1053
00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,440
the quarterback situation,
because that seems to be the one
1054
00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:35,560
thing that, you know, even in
the, the media hype and
1055
00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:38,000
everything, you got the national
media talking about it.
1056
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,320
You got your coach kind of
refuting what the national media
1057
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:43,000
saying, You know, what's the
story going on at quarterback?
1058
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:45,960
Are we going to see Haynes King,
who we going to see?
1059
00:55:46,320 --> 00:55:47,360
Who you think we're going to
see?
1060
00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:53,400
If I was a betting man, I'd say
Pyron starts.
1061
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:56,520
I mean, you know, King not
starting last week was a big
1062
00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:59,800
deal.
And I think as a staff, you
1063
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:04,400
don't want to put a 65% King in,
have them now have a season
1064
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:06,600
ending injury.
Now you're guaranteed not to
1065
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:09,040
have them when you have a very
capable backup.
1066
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:13,240
And Zach Pyron, you know, he
played against Notre Dame last
1067
00:56:13,240 --> 00:56:14,880
week.
I hate that his first kind of
1068
00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:17,520
start this year was against
Notre Dame with the 4th ranked
1069
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:20,640
pass offense in the country.
Pretty tough out.
1070
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,240
You know, he's trying to force
some throws to make some plays.
1071
00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:26,400
But Zach Poweron does have a win
in Blacksburg.
1072
00:56:26,720 --> 00:56:30,640
So he started in his interim
year, went to Blacksburg and got
1073
00:56:30,640 --> 00:56:32,760
a win.
And look, he's an elite 11
1074
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,520
quarterback.
He's a veteran guy.
1075
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:39,240
There's probably not too many
teams that have backups that our
1076
00:56:39,240 --> 00:56:42,280
veteran like that and I, you
know, I have the full confidence
1077
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:46,440
in Pyron if and probably when he
does start in this game.
1078
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:50,960
Yeah, I think everybody else on
this show remembers that game,
1079
00:56:51,280 --> 00:56:54,920
that Pyron went in there and
carved us up a little bit.
1080
00:56:54,920 --> 00:56:58,000
It was a it was a little
frustrating to to witness that
1081
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:01,400
game and how that went down.
And I think we kind of knew then
1082
00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:04,160
that was kind of I think one of
the first big games where you're
1083
00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:06,200
like, all right, well, this
Brent Key might be on to
1084
00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:10,520
something here as an interim.
So, you know, that was a good
1085
00:57:10,520 --> 00:57:14,360
situation for you guys.
And I, I'm, I think, you know, I
1086
00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:17,440
think your ceilings a lot higher
with Haynes King in there.
1087
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:20,680
If he's able to go and he's able
at least to hit that like 85 or
1088
00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:22,760
90% mark.
But I don't like you said, I
1089
00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,720
don't think they're going to
roll him out there at 65% and
1090
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:29,640
risk an injury and have him be
limited in what he can do
1091
00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:32,760
because, you know, he does have
a, a dynamic skill set as well
1092
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:35,200
there.
So I'm expecting hiring.
1093
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:37,400
Go ahead.
I'm sorry.
1094
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:38,320
I.
Was going to say I'm I'm
1095
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:39,720
expecting power to get that
start.
1096
00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:43,520
Yeah, King is definitely a
little more fleet footed.
1097
00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:46,520
I mean, he's like a 4-5 flat
type guy.
1098
00:57:47,360 --> 00:57:49,360
But the thing with Pyron is he's
probably a little more
1099
00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:54,720
consistent throwing, probably
has a little more accurate arm.
1100
00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:57,240
So it'll be interesting to see
how it plays out.
1101
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:03,480
Yeah, Power run is, of course,
like you said, he's a no
1102
00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:06,880
stranger to to come to
Blacksburg and fucking stuff up.
1103
00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:10,040
Yeah, I think it was 2022 that
he did.
1104
00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:13,120
But he's actually a Alabama guy.
He's actually a Alabama guy.
1105
00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:16,520
He was AI don't want to say
legend, but he may be close to a
1106
00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,280
legend here in Alabama.
He went to a school called
1107
00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,360
Penson Valley.
If y'all you know, Tech fans,
1108
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:25,680
remember Kenji Christensen.
He was his quarterback in high
1109
00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:27,640
school.
They won A state championship
1110
00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:29,320
together.
That's it.
1111
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:32,360
That was a 6A school, which is
not the biggest division in
1112
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:35,480
Alabama, but, you know, closest
to the biggest division, 7A is
1113
00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:38,600
the biggest.
So Pinson Valley was at that
1114
00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:41,760
time pretty much a powerhouse
just getting back into kind of
1115
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:43,960
his high school stuff.
So he's a winner.
1116
00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:45,800
And I think he went to a smaller
school.
1117
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:47,200
Yeah.
He went to a smaller school
1118
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:49,680
called Fife High School.
Was more of a country.
1119
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:54,080
This is what I'll tell you.
I I he went from the most
1120
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,760
country school in the world and
won a state title there to the
1121
00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:03,080
most hood school or like into
the hood school and want to stay
1122
00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:05,920
titled up.
He can fit into anything like he
1123
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:08,920
can go anywhere and he can play
anywhere and he ain't going to
1124
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:11,480
be scared.
So he will he go ahead?
1125
00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:14,920
He ran the triple option at that
smaller school I'm pretty sure
1126
00:59:14,920 --> 00:59:18,040
they run.
And then, you know, I've
1127
00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:20,160
interviewed him on the channel
before.
1128
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:22,840
I think his dad took him to this
other school because I was like,
1129
00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:27,560
all right, you know, Paul
Johnson ain't coaching no more.
1130
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:29,360
So maybe we need to go to a
school that doesn't run the
1131
00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:33,080
triple off.
You're in Alabama, Tally, you're
1132
00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:36,400
in Alabama.
Yeah, man, I'm, I'm Alabama born
1133
00:59:36,400 --> 00:59:38,360
and bred.
I'm in Huntsville, AL.
1134
00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:41,280
Nice.
Not not far from me then.
1135
00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:44,000
I'm on the West side of Atlanta.
OK, nice.
1136
00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:46,880
Are you over there?
You over there with the with the
1137
00:59:47,040 --> 00:59:49,720
with the good chicken wings
that's in the strip clubs.
1138
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:51,800
Yeah, that's actually why I
moved there.
1139
00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:56,360
I was like number one thing,
strip club and what's the wing
1140
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:59,920
situation at that strip club?
I'll go on a Tuesday at 2:00 in
1141
00:59:59,920 --> 01:00:03,000
the in the afternoon that that
does not matter to me.
1142
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:06,320
Hey, you're a trooper for that
man.
1143
01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:08,280
Hey.
And if they got good wings, it's
1144
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:09,560
worth it.
It's always worth it.
1145
01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:10,720
Exactly.
Don't.
1146
01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:12,520
Matter for the wings either that
frozen.
1147
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:20,880
I'm telling you the the the
Internet in Alabama is on 1/2
1148
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:23,320
night Sheldon what you what
you're.
1149
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:28,040
Trying to take my man down.
They are it's it's it's the the
1150
01:00:28,040 --> 01:00:30,960
man is trying to take tally out.
Sheldon, what you got concerning
1151
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,600
something you want to know about
the offense for the Georgia Tech
1152
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:35,360
Yellow Jackets?
Yeah.
1153
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:37,600
I mean, I'm kind of just looking
over some of the advanced stats.
1154
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:41,760
I mean, pretty solid for the
Yellow Jackets, 36 in EPA per
1155
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:44,880
rush, 19th in EPA per per
passing attempt.
1156
01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:48,280
You know, success rate across
the board, pretty good. 39th for
1157
01:00:48,280 --> 01:00:50,640
rushing, 16th for passing.
I mean, it seems like it's a
1158
01:00:50,640 --> 01:00:53,440
pretty solid offense overall, 22
points per drive.
1159
01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:56,800
What I guess just go over kind
of the biggest strengths and
1160
01:00:56,800 --> 01:00:59,000
maybe the biggest weaknesses of
the GT offense right now.
1161
01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:00,880
All right.
Well, Shelton, you look a little
1162
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:02,360
younger, so I'm going to say
this.
1163
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:07,560
No cap when I say this biggest
strength of the offense is
1164
01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:09,440
definitely rushing.
I mean these these teams are
1165
01:01:09,440 --> 01:01:11,520
similar in their offensive
identity.
1166
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:15,240
You know, you look at Virginia
Tech, what are you 16th and pass
1167
01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:18,400
offense and number one in the
conference and rush offense.
1168
01:01:18,680 --> 01:01:21,720
Tech's a little more balance,
but they definitely look Brink
1169
01:01:21,720 --> 01:01:23,440
he's a guy that wants to run the
ball.
1170
01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:28,800
He says that run the ball.
Jamal Haynes, a guy that had a
1171
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,800
really good season for tech last
year, like their first 1000 yard
1172
01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:34,440
rusters since Paul Johnson was
here.
1173
01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:37,160
This year, they've they've been
very inconsistent running the
1174
01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:39,520
ball for whatever reason,
though, which is surprising when
1175
01:01:39,520 --> 01:01:42,840
you have an offensive line and
Ron, I think it sounds like you
1176
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:44,800
played offensive line.
I don't think people give credit
1177
01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:47,760
to how difficult it is to play
that position and how important
1178
01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,240
chemistry is.
But something's something's got
1179
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:52,440
lost in the sauce for tech this
year.
1180
01:01:52,440 --> 01:01:54,200
I think it might just be the
people are just going to stack
1181
01:01:54,200 --> 01:01:56,640
the box on tech.
If I'm Virginia Tech, that's
1182
01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:59,040
what I'm going to do.
Stack the box, make a high run,
1183
01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:02,400
throw, play man coverage on the
outside and and see what
1184
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:04,240
happens.
If I'm Virginia Tech, hey, I'm
1185
01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:07,560
not going to let you beat me
running Jamal Haynes like I'm
1186
01:02:07,600 --> 01:02:09,760
Jeff Collins at North Carolina
on the last play.
1187
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:17,240
The biggest weakness on Tech's
team without a doubt is special
1188
01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:19,160
teams.
I mean, it's absolutely killed
1189
01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:21,880
us.
Something you don't talk about a
1190
01:02:21,880 --> 01:02:26,960
ton, but how you get your ass
beat on the road easily is
1191
01:02:27,080 --> 01:02:29,480
special teams.
We've now against Louisville had
1192
01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:33,440
a block kick taken back for a
touchdown, a Marion Hampton took
1193
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:36,680
a kickback against us, should
have, should have lost.
1194
01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:40,680
In North Carolina on special
team snafus, we take time outs,
1195
01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:43,320
get substitution penalties
before punts.
1196
01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:46,280
It's a disaster.
And it was a disaster against
1197
01:02:46,280 --> 01:02:48,680
Notre Dame.
So that'd be the biggest
1198
01:02:48,680 --> 01:02:51,880
weakness as far as offense,
defense weakness.
1199
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:56,680
It's our pass pass rush and pass
defense, which luckily for us,
1200
01:02:56,680 --> 01:02:58,080
you've struggled throwing the
ball.
1201
01:02:58,080 --> 01:03:03,080
I think you've got was it Drones
has 9 touchdowns on five picks.
1202
01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:06,240
I think you're near, I think
you're 16th and pass offense
1203
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:08,320
too.
But that's what kind of makes it
1204
01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:11,600
an interesting, interesting
matchup is that we kind of clash
1205
01:03:11,600 --> 01:03:13,160
it.
We we both kind of want to do
1206
01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:15,840
similar things.
Hope that answers your question.
1207
01:03:16,960 --> 01:03:18,720
Yeah, for sure.
And and just so I just can't
1208
01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:22,720
confirm, looking at the numbers,
Georgia Tech does rank 122nd and
1209
01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:24,600
special teams efficiency
according to FBI.
1210
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:27,760
So the numbers do bear that out.
It has been a rough go for the
1211
01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:28,800
jackets on.
Teams.
1212
01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:31,040
Talk.
It's not all in your head.
1213
01:03:31,840 --> 01:03:35,280
Yeah, I.
Love being a tech guy.
1214
01:03:35,280 --> 01:03:39,120
The numbers have confirmed what
I can see with my lion eyes.
1215
01:03:40,400 --> 01:03:42,920
Let me ask this, go back to the
offense before we get on the
1216
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:46,880
defensive side of the ball, but
I'm looking here.
1217
01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:51,920
Y'all got 2 main targets and
that's Rutherford and Singleton.
1218
01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:55,040
You know, they're basically
almost half the completed passes
1219
01:03:55,040 --> 01:03:59,520
goes either one of those guys.
Which one of those two guys do
1220
01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:02,200
you like in this matchup versus
Virginia Tech?
1221
01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:05,880
Well, it depends.
Do you like your linebacker
1222
01:04:05,880 --> 01:04:07,520
play?
Do you like, do you feel
1223
01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:09,360
confident in your linebackers
and coverage?
1224
01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:13,880
Depends on which one you talked
about.
1225
01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:15,120
Depends on which one you're
talking about.
1226
01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:17,080
There's there's three, so we're
going to try and.
1227
01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:18,800
Take advantage of the weaker 1
so.
1228
01:04:18,960 --> 01:04:22,200
Yeah, yeah.
So probably not not not great.
1229
01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:23,880
Not great.
Yeah, we don't.
1230
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,160
See Malik, I'd say Malik
Rutherford then.
1231
01:04:26,160 --> 01:04:31,800
Now, if you look at the like
passing efficiency of Haines
1232
01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:34,520
King, it's like set.
It was like 75% at one point.
1233
01:04:34,720 --> 01:04:37,120
Very deceptive.
We like to throw the ball behind
1234
01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:39,880
the scrimmage a lot or five
yards and a lot of screens, a
1235
01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:42,960
lot of quick throws.
And we've done that a lot to
1236
01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:46,480
Malik where he just, you know,
we we cross block it or crack
1237
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:48,040
block it.
I don't think you can call it
1238
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:50,200
crack block anymore.
You kind of rub up against the
1239
01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:51,920
guy without killing them
nowadays.
1240
01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:54,360
But I like Malik in that
matchup.
1241
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:59,440
Singleton junior was a true was
a freshman All American last
1242
01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:05,480
year crack *10200m guy.
We just have not done well with
1243
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:07,320
Hanes King throwing down the
field.
1244
01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:09,760
However I think Pyron can do
better.
1245
01:05:10,080 --> 01:05:13,960
But what you're yeah you're
past.
1246
01:05:13,960 --> 01:05:17,360
Your secondary is pretty cracked
though so probably won't go that
1247
01:05:17,360 --> 01:05:19,000
route.
Probably rather go with Malik
1248
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:19,960
there.
Yeah.
1249
01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:22,600
And you got one of our
linebackers, Kiante Jenkins is
1250
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,920
effectively, he plays an outside
linebacker spot, but he's coming
1251
01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:29,080
over from playing safety.
So that's where it's like when
1252
01:05:29,080 --> 01:05:32,200
when we talk about some of those
slot guys that, you know, you
1253
01:05:32,200 --> 01:05:33,800
watch with all the defenses,
right?
1254
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:37,360
Like there's usually a converted
safety doing something near the
1255
01:05:37,360 --> 01:05:40,880
line of scrimmage.
And sometimes if they're really
1256
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:45,280
good, they can they can lock up
a slot receiver if they suck
1257
01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:48,080
slots eat all day.
And it's crazy to say.
1258
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:50,640
That that's exposed.
Yeah.
1259
01:05:50,640 --> 01:05:54,440
And I mean, outside we're pretty
good with Delane and Strong.
1260
01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:58,720
So if if we get into those
situations, it sounds like what
1261
01:05:58,720 --> 01:06:01,280
you're telling me is that what
we're going to need to do do
1262
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:05,960
good is track the slot in the in
the running back and tackle
1263
01:06:05,960 --> 01:06:08,800
well, because they're going to
get the ball quickly in space.
1264
01:06:08,800 --> 01:06:10,920
And we're going to need to
tackle to avoid getting into
1265
01:06:11,040 --> 01:06:14,680
those, you know, 2nd and short,
3rd and short situations.
1266
01:06:14,680 --> 01:06:17,880
Because I mean this, this is a
defense for the Hokies that
1267
01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:22,280
thrives on getting into second
and third down and long where we
1268
01:06:22,280 --> 01:06:25,240
can send our defensive line
after your quarterback.
1269
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:29,480
Yeah, and boy, was it Powell
Rylan is is a hoss.
1270
01:06:30,440 --> 01:06:32,160
What?
What is, is he a junior?
1271
01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:35,000
What is his class?
He's a senior.
1272
01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:38,120
He's a senior, yeah.
So you see many more He's.
1273
01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:40,520
Going to go pretty high in the
draft then.
1274
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:43,160
I think he's leading the
conference in sacks, tackles for
1275
01:06:43,160 --> 01:06:47,000
loss, a lot of different stats.
Yeah, he's, he's number one in
1276
01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:50,520
the country right now, actually.
So he took over that moniker
1277
01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:53,360
this week.
Actually, he was 5th going into
1278
01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:56,840
Thursday and by the close of
Saturday he was number 1.
1279
01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:59,600
So he had four against Boston
College there.
1280
01:06:59,600 --> 01:07:03,680
And just, I mean, he's been,
he's been as advertised really
1281
01:07:03,680 --> 01:07:05,360
start to finish that so far this
year.
1282
01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:07,200
And, you know, we're really
excited about what that
1283
01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:09,560
defensive line has done as a
whole, especially when it comes
1284
01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:12,280
to getting after the passer.
It'll be interesting, George.
1285
01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:16,480
I think Tech's only given up two
or three sacks all year.
1286
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:18,760
I mean, they're near the top of
the country and given sacks up.
1287
01:07:18,760 --> 01:07:22,840
So be interesting to see that
match up Tech, you know, likes
1288
01:07:22,840 --> 01:07:26,240
to run the RPO game, which is
really the modern day version of
1289
01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:28,800
the triple option.
So we might just work on taking
1290
01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:31,920
him out of some plays and you
know, maybe some other guys can
1291
01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:33,640
make some plays but decided to
see it.
1292
01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:38,560
Yeah, they did that a little bit
with Vandy when we played Vandy.
1293
01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:41,320
So I'm I'm imagining there's
going to be a little bit of that
1294
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:45,600
mixed in as well, trying to
neutralize him as much as
1295
01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:47,040
possible.
Like I said, that's why first
1296
01:07:47,040 --> 01:07:49,320
down is so important for
Virginia Tech from a defensive
1297
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:52,320
standpoint, because if we can
get you in long situations on
1298
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:55,480
2nd and 3rd, that's when we can,
you know, really do the things
1299
01:07:55,480 --> 01:07:58,400
that we like to do.
Oh yeah, I did.
1300
01:07:58,880 --> 01:08:03,080
I did also confirm real quick
Haynes King, 30.7% of his passes
1301
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:04,520
this year have been behind on
scrimmage.
1302
01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:06,760
That's tied with Quinn viewers
from most of the Power 4.
1303
01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:09,720
So yes, lots of big, big heavy
dose, short, short.
1304
01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:12,760
Quick.
Why is the SBM not hired to you,
1305
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:15,040
Sheldon?
Like you're just like a machine
1306
01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:17,080
with these stats, man.
Like I think just.
1307
01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:19,359
I'm just a monkey on a keyboard,
man.
1308
01:08:19,359 --> 01:08:20,120
I'm I'm typing.
Away.
1309
01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:24,080
We're not golfing.
You don't have to sandbag me or
1310
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:24,880
nothing.
We're not.
1311
01:08:27,720 --> 01:08:30,040
And that does make a lot of
sense with the number of sacks.
1312
01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:32,359
Passing that much time behind
the line of scrimmage tells you
1313
01:08:32,359 --> 01:08:35,279
y'all want to get that ball out
quick, quick, quick.
1314
01:08:35,680 --> 01:08:37,000
Let's flip over to the tackle
guys.
1315
01:08:37,359 --> 01:08:39,760
Yeah, got to tackle, got to
tackle, be nice behind the line
1316
01:08:39,760 --> 01:08:41,680
of scrimmage a lot.
Let's talk about your defense
1317
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:43,840
next, though.
Obviously Santucci's your DC,
1318
01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:47,800
but obviously so much of this is
coming from Brent Key and you
1319
01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:51,520
know what he's instilled there.
And you know, I've got some
1320
01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:54,359
really good players, but the one
that jumped out to me was
1321
01:08:54,359 --> 01:08:57,600
Trenelius Tatum.
I hope I butchered that as well
1322
01:08:57,600 --> 01:09:02,240
as I did your show's name there.
By some miracle you pronounced
1323
01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:05,000
it correct, so.
I win.
1324
01:09:05,319 --> 01:09:06,800
Everybody golf.
Clap for Curtis.
1325
01:09:06,800 --> 01:09:09,040
Everybody golf clap on that
because man, when I look.
1326
01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:11,240
At Curtis.
Not only some of the some of the
1327
01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:14,000
tape and you know, watching him
in a few games this year, but
1328
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:17,439
also his stat lines.
He seems like he is everywhere
1329
01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:20,479
at all times.
Is he?
1330
01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:24,399
Do you consider him your best
defensive player or what do you
1331
01:09:24,399 --> 01:09:26,880
think?
No, I mean, he's a guy that's
1332
01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:29,880
that's been there a while, got a
lot of experience and look, he's
1333
01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:34,319
made some good plays for us.
The the killer in this game for
1334
01:09:34,319 --> 01:09:39,000
Tech is that Kyle Efford will
most likely be out too.
1335
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:42,279
He was.
He injured his shoulder at UNCI.
1336
01:09:42,279 --> 01:09:45,840
Think he said he's practicing a
black jersey, but that was our
1337
01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:50,960
most surefire run stopper, which
is 100% what Tech needs in this
1338
01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:54,080
game, so he's probably been.
Hey, let me ask a question.
1339
01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:56,440
Good.
Who was the dude in the first
1340
01:09:56,440 --> 01:10:00,600
game that looked like a made-up
linebacker?
1341
01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:02,280
Was that him?
Was that the Kyle kid?
1342
01:10:02,280 --> 01:10:05,480
With the with the cowboy collar.
On Yeah, Yeah.
1343
01:10:05,480 --> 01:10:07,520
Yeah, that that's him.
I don't know why that's made a
1344
01:10:07,520 --> 01:10:09,560
comeback.
It went out of style for like 10
1345
01:10:09,560 --> 01:10:11,320
years and now they're back.
But yeah.
1346
01:10:11,360 --> 01:10:13,920
Y'all go look him up in that
first game that that Georgia
1347
01:10:13,920 --> 01:10:16,680
Tech played and see if you want
us to play against him.
1348
01:10:16,680 --> 01:10:18,040
No, we don't want to play
against him.
1349
01:10:18,760 --> 01:10:20,480
Because he looked like he
looked.
1350
01:10:20,480 --> 01:10:22,280
Like one of them boys off the
program.
1351
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:28,720
The movie, and I think he was on
steroids that first game, so I'm
1352
01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:31,240
just saying.
He looks, he looks.
1353
01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:34,440
Like a linebacker dog.
Yeah, it's part of our nutrition
1354
01:10:34,440 --> 01:10:35,440
program.
That's right.
1355
01:10:35,440 --> 01:10:36,960
Hey.
You got to you got to do what
1356
01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:40,520
you got to do and you know,
have, I think, you know, when
1357
01:10:40,520 --> 01:10:43,840
you look at that, you know,
Eford is definitely a guy that,
1358
01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:47,760
you know, from your perspective,
sounds like he can impact the
1359
01:10:47,760 --> 01:10:54,160
game if he's not able to go, You
know, what do you guys look like
1360
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:55,680
outside?
Because I mean, you know, you
1361
01:10:55,680 --> 01:10:59,080
talked about that may be an area
where we can exploit, but it's
1362
01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:02,360
also an area where we haven't
necessarily been as dynamic as
1363
01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:04,920
we want to be.
If we're throwing outside, if
1364
01:11:04,920 --> 01:11:07,480
we're throwing down the field,
who's going to be the guy that
1365
01:11:07,480 --> 01:11:11,600
can make some plays?
Who We've been pretty awful
1366
01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:14,840
defending the past.
The stats don't necessarily show
1367
01:11:14,840 --> 01:11:16,840
that.
Are just the straight ACC
1368
01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:19,040
rankings of like total past
defense.
1369
01:11:19,040 --> 01:11:22,560
I think we only have like 2
picks on the year, so only two
1370
01:11:22,560 --> 01:11:26,320
takeaways.
And really that a lot of that
1371
01:11:26,320 --> 01:11:30,200
comes down to our pass rush is
just flat out awful.
1372
01:11:30,520 --> 01:11:34,800
We just do not get after the
quarterback that I mean, look, a
1373
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:38,080
good quarterback.
Like who's the guy for Syracuse?
1374
01:11:38,080 --> 01:11:41,000
Kyle McCord, he, he almost had
300 yards before half.
1375
01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:43,440
It's just because we couldn't
get to them.
1376
01:11:43,440 --> 01:11:49,480
So that you know, if you look at
I, when I preview the games and
1377
01:11:49,480 --> 01:11:52,280
I'll, I'll record 1 after this
for tomorrow.
1378
01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:57,120
If I, I like to think of what is
1 stat I could get from the game
1379
01:11:57,120 --> 01:11:59,040
that I think would tell me who
won it.
1380
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:03,680
It might, it might be the
passing yards for Virginia Tech.
1381
01:12:03,920 --> 01:12:07,960
If you can really balance your
run with being able to throw on
1382
01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:10,720
us like most people do,
Tooting's going to have a
1383
01:12:10,720 --> 01:12:13,520
monster day because then because
then we can't just commit,
1384
01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:17,240
commit to the run.
We we do have some experience
1385
01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:20,120
there, the Miles Brooks at
safety, Clayton Powell, Lee,
1386
01:12:20,720 --> 01:12:23,520
Amari Harvey.
It's just we get in positions to
1387
01:12:23,520 --> 01:12:27,160
make plays and we don't make
plays a lot of times and it's
1388
01:12:27,160 --> 01:12:30,200
just tough.
Yeah, and and you said it just a
1389
01:12:30,200 --> 01:12:34,720
second ago about the pass rush,
your eyes ain't fooling. 126th
1390
01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:41,160
in the country in team sacks.
So, you know, and obviously if
1391
01:12:41,160 --> 01:12:44,840
that's happening, I know Shelton
wants to bring this up now, he's
1392
01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:46,440
got a little something on the
secondary there.
1393
01:12:46,440 --> 01:12:49,320
But obviously if you're not
getting past rush, you could
1394
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:51,920
have an elite secondary.
It's just it's not going to show
1395
01:12:51,920 --> 01:12:53,880
at all points in time.
Sheldon, what you got, man?
1396
01:12:55,040 --> 01:12:58,160
Yeah, looking over the defensive
numbers, I think the biggest
1397
01:12:58,160 --> 01:13:00,640
bugaboo has been, you know, the
past defense.
1398
01:13:01,680 --> 01:13:06,680
Right now Georgia Tech is 103rd
114th in drop back success rate
1399
01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:10,080
against, you know, right at
4043% there.
1400
01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:12,040
Why do you think it is that the
secondary has struggled?
1401
01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:16,120
The secondary, yeah, I mean, I
think we're talking about it.
1402
01:13:16,120 --> 01:13:18,840
I mean a big part is they can
only cover for so long.
1403
01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:21,680
I don't care how good of a
corner you are, if you're manned
1404
01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:23,680
up, there's only so long you can
cover them or in zone.
1405
01:13:23,680 --> 01:13:26,680
We've really, we've really done
better playing man because I
1406
01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:29,720
think that simplifies things for
your backs a little more.
1407
01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:32,480
Hey, that's my guy.
As opposed to playing zone and
1408
01:13:32,480 --> 01:13:35,840
really feeling where's the
quarterback looking in your
1409
01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:38,720
periphery, you know, what are
the wide receivers doing?
1410
01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:41,160
I got crossers coming.
I need to step up or whatever.
1411
01:13:42,160 --> 01:13:44,600
And he talked about it a lot in
the press conference.
1412
01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:46,320
I think a lot of its confidence
too.
1413
01:13:46,320 --> 01:13:49,840
I don't think we're just
untalented in the secondary.
1414
01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:53,280
I think when you get lit up game
after game, you kind of have
1415
01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:56,360
this impending doom feeling
where it's like, man, it like
1416
01:13:56,520 --> 01:13:58,680
here it goes again.
They just dropped a, you know,
1417
01:13:58,800 --> 01:14:01,000
35 yard throw on us.
Here we go again.
1418
01:14:01,440 --> 01:14:03,080
So I think, I think it's a
little both of those.
1419
01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:05,640
Yeah, we know what I'm.
Saying right here.
1420
01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:08,600
We know that feeling, but most
of the time with Virginia Tech
1421
01:14:08,600 --> 01:14:13,160
is, oh Lord, the quarterback
just scrambled for 35 yards
1422
01:14:13,160 --> 01:14:18,800
again that.
Happens to you when you're not
1423
01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:21,680
rushing the passer very well.
I can almost guarantee you,
1424
01:14:21,680 --> 01:14:24,200
you're not being very
disciplined in pass rush lanes
1425
01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:27,600
where a mobile quarterback can
step up and not be touched for,
1426
01:14:27,640 --> 01:14:30,880
you know, 8-9 yards either that
that's happened a lot.
1427
01:14:32,560 --> 01:14:35,120
Yeah, And just kind of feeding
off that, I think, you know,
1428
01:14:35,120 --> 01:14:39,680
when we look at, you know, what
Kyron drones can do against this
1429
01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:43,000
defense, you know, if we say the
the over under sitting there at
1430
01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:45,840
2:15 and we hit the over, what
you're telling me is you
1431
01:14:45,840 --> 01:14:48,160
probably like the chances of
that being a hokey win.
1432
01:14:48,800 --> 01:14:51,280
I'd say 90% likely you're
winning the game.
1433
01:14:51,280 --> 01:14:56,600
Well at 2:15, I put it at 2:50.
If he throws for more than 250,
1434
01:14:56,840 --> 01:15:00,520
I would say, I would say 98%
likely all we are winning this
1435
01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:03,280
game.
I mean, he's had some good games
1436
01:15:03,280 --> 01:15:07,000
here, especially get Stanford,
who I think from a defensive
1437
01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:10,360
passing efficiency standpoint
was probably about in the same
1438
01:15:10,360 --> 01:15:15,080
ballpark as Georgia Tech.
If we can do that and and still
1439
01:15:15,080 --> 01:15:17,720
have some success on the ground,
then I think I think we're
1440
01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:19,600
putting ourselves in a pretty
good position there.
1441
01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:21,320
So it's going to come down to
that.
1442
01:15:21,320 --> 01:15:24,760
And I think, you know, Sheldon
has spoken to it to a point.
1443
01:15:25,960 --> 01:15:28,920
You know, Kyron's had a pretty
good amount of success against
1444
01:15:28,920 --> 01:15:32,840
man, he's gotten better against
throwing against the zone.
1445
01:15:33,440 --> 01:15:36,240
So we'll see if we can get some
consistency in this game and
1446
01:15:36,240 --> 01:15:38,840
give give a good compliment to
what we can do in the running
1447
01:15:38,840 --> 01:15:43,360
game with with Tooting there.
Yeah, and I don't.
1448
01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:46,440
I'm sure Shelton, you've got the
stats sitting right above you
1449
01:15:46,440 --> 01:15:47,440
somewhere.
I don't.
1450
01:15:47,600 --> 01:15:51,680
I think the last time we dropped
a game beyond Blacksburg was
1451
01:15:51,680 --> 01:15:54,320
2012.
Whatever reason we played well
1452
01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:56,200
in got it.
You knew it.
1453
01:15:56,440 --> 01:15:59,720
Of course you did.
Well, to be fair, I saw, I saw a
1454
01:15:59,720 --> 01:16:02,080
Twitter graphic earlier today
and I was like, yeah, it's been.
1455
01:16:02,280 --> 01:16:04,120
But they've only played three
times though, or maybe four
1456
01:16:04,120 --> 01:16:05,960
times I think.
Yeah, 20. 12.
1457
01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:08,680
In Blacksburg, yeah.
Yeah, and.
1458
01:16:09,320 --> 01:16:10,600
Bill Bill Roth dropped it out
there.
1459
01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:15,560
I think the there's only been
like what, one home victory in
1460
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:18,800
this matchup in like the last 15
years or something like that.
1461
01:16:18,800 --> 01:16:20,560
Like, yeah, I was, I was at that
game.
1462
01:16:20,760 --> 01:16:22,600
I was at Bobby Dodd Stadium when
it happened.
1463
01:16:22,600 --> 01:16:27,080
I think it was 20.
No, I think it was 2017.
1464
01:16:28,160 --> 01:16:30,520
Greg Stroman.
Greg Stroman picked one off and
1465
01:16:30,520 --> 01:16:33,320
took it back.
And then I think we only, I
1466
01:16:33,320 --> 01:16:35,200
think that was the year Cam
Phillips was that guy.
1467
01:16:36,560 --> 01:16:38,120
And they they beat us at Bobby
Dodd.
1468
01:16:38,120 --> 01:16:41,200
And I was there and I was sad,
yeah.
1469
01:16:42,520 --> 01:16:44,600
Was it 09 when you all ranked
4th?
1470
01:16:45,600 --> 01:16:48,200
And y'all, I know y'all had a
really mobile quarterback.
1471
01:16:48,200 --> 01:16:50,040
We, we pulled one out at Bobby
Dodd.
1472
01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:51,600
I think Gailey might even been
our coach.
1473
01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:54,600
It's been a while, I just
remember being that.
1474
01:16:54,760 --> 01:16:57,040
Curtis is is dialing back in the
history books, I think.
1475
01:16:57,120 --> 01:16:59,520
Yeah, let me get to history
books here.
1476
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:02,760
I always, the one that always
stands out to us and we can do a
1477
01:17:02,760 --> 01:17:06,520
little history is the Calvin
Johnson year because we were a
1478
01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:10,120
significantly better team than
y'all and we could not cover
1479
01:17:10,120 --> 01:17:13,320
that specimen on the field that
day.
1480
01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:20,240
That was O that was O 6 because
I got to attend the 2005 game.
1481
01:17:20,840 --> 01:17:23,960
Go look at that one wreck talk.
That was game day was on site
1482
01:17:24,560 --> 01:17:27,160
and that was an absolute.
I'm sure you probably drink a
1483
01:17:27,160 --> 01:17:31,600
lot that day because of the ass
whipping that was put on because
1484
01:17:31,600 --> 01:17:34,120
that was an ugly game and I was
blacked out in the stands.
1485
01:17:35,280 --> 01:17:38,400
Well, I mean, Calvin, to be
fair, Calvin Johnson, if you
1486
01:17:38,400 --> 01:17:44,080
just created a wide receiver in
Madden and maxed all his stats
1487
01:17:44,080 --> 01:17:46,960
out, you would get something
like Calvin Johnson.
1488
01:17:46,960 --> 01:17:50,440
I mean, the dude's just a
freaking I'm, I'm pissed at the
1489
01:17:50,440 --> 01:17:55,240
lines to this day for screwing
his career up in the pros. 100%
1490
01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:58,800
Korea.
And you're right, it was 2009.
1491
01:17:59,120 --> 01:18:02,600
Tyrod Taylor was the quarterback
that year, so.
1492
01:18:03,320 --> 01:18:07,560
And I think Roman Reigns was the
one bringing him to the ground.
1493
01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:09,960
Oh my God.
He's crazy.
1494
01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:11,720
It might have been before that,
actually.
1495
01:18:11,720 --> 01:18:14,360
I don't know.
I know Joanna White played here.
1496
01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:16,200
Yes, he did.
No, he he was.
1497
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:17,840
That would have been about the
time frame for him.
1498
01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:20,320
Yeah, I don't know if it was
late game, but he was definitely
1499
01:18:20,320 --> 01:18:22,760
that time.
It was that time frame for him.
1500
01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:26,000
Pretty crazy to think about it.
Well, man, listen, we want you
1501
01:18:26,000 --> 01:18:28,520
to go ahead, tell everybody
where they can find you.
1502
01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:31,720
If you got YouTube channel,
Twitter, rec talk, where can
1503
01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:34,880
they find you and anything
special you're talking about as
1504
01:18:34,880 --> 01:18:38,960
you record this evening?
Yeah, so the YouTube channel is
1505
01:18:38,960 --> 01:18:42,040
Rec Talk, not Rec Tech.
If you search Rec Tech, I don't
1506
01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:44,680
know what will come up, but it's
probably not me.
1507
01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:49,000
I'm at at Rec under score Talk
on Twitter because my other one
1508
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:52,720
got hacked by like sex bots.
I don't know if that says about
1509
01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:56,680
anything about what I search on
the Internet, but hey, yeah, so
1510
01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,720
it's at Rec under score Talk.
I'll do a preview video this
1511
01:18:59,720 --> 01:19:02,880
week.
I do power rankings every week,
1512
01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:06,280
usually on Monday.
I'll be picking the spread
1513
01:19:06,280 --> 01:19:08,120
probably tomorrow, the day
after.
1514
01:19:09,240 --> 01:19:12,600
And a caveat with that, if you
want to speed run the poor
1515
01:19:12,600 --> 01:19:14,400
house, go ahead and bet a lot on
sports.
1516
01:19:14,560 --> 01:19:16,920
I don't do it and you shouldn't
either.
1517
01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:19,920
But yeah, so I should have those
coming out probably.
1518
01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:24,280
Sea Dog and I will be streaming
this game Saturday on his
1519
01:19:24,280 --> 01:19:26,600
channel.
If you just look up Sea Dog,
1520
01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:29,520
you'll see us both probably
losing our minds.
1521
01:19:29,520 --> 01:19:32,960
Usually my voice is like an
octave lower after those games
1522
01:19:32,960 --> 01:19:34,640
because I don't know about you
guys.
1523
01:19:34,640 --> 01:19:36,640
I take it hard.
I mean, I take it hard.
1524
01:19:37,160 --> 01:19:40,960
Not as hard as it used to be,
but you sound like me in our
1525
01:19:40,960 --> 01:19:46,640
text chain during games.
Curtis, Curtis is we talked
1526
01:19:46,640 --> 01:19:49,000
about earlier, Curtis is a
roller coaster ride during
1527
01:19:49,000 --> 01:19:51,200
games.
You got, you got to ride the
1528
01:19:51,200 --> 01:19:52,680
waves, you got to ride the
waves.
1529
01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:55,440
You got you got to hope that
that they turn it around because
1530
01:19:56,240 --> 01:19:59,040
sometimes Curtis, anytime we're
playing bad, we're the worst
1531
01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:01,920
team in the ACC.
No country, not even the ACC
1532
01:20:02,680 --> 01:20:05,080
country.
But listen, rec talk, man.
1533
01:20:05,080 --> 01:20:07,280
We appreciate you taking a
little bit of your time tonight
1534
01:20:07,400 --> 01:20:09,000
to talk a little Georgia Tech
with us.
1535
01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:12,560
Nice meeting you man.
And, and again, as everybody we
1536
01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:16,040
see, maybe one day we make it to
Atlanta, you make it to
1537
01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:18,120
Blacksburg, we'll meet up and
say what's up, have a beer
1538
01:20:18,120 --> 01:20:19,800
together.
Can't do, man.
1539
01:20:19,800 --> 01:20:21,720
I tell you what, y'all.
Come on down, Tally.
1540
01:20:21,800 --> 01:20:24,040
I'll take you to the cheetah.
You know what I'm talking about,
1541
01:20:24,040 --> 01:20:27,280
all right?
Babe, thanks.
1542
01:20:28,160 --> 01:20:30,200
Have a good one, thanks.
For your saying that, appreciate
1543
01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:34,120
it Tally it's only two and a
half hour drive, right?
1544
01:20:34,480 --> 01:20:36,240
Oh yeah, I'll be over there all
the time, man.
1545
01:20:36,240 --> 01:20:38,360
That's it.
Whenever we play down there.
1546
01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:42,840
Got to love it, got to love it.
The Kyle effort thing must have
1547
01:20:42,840 --> 01:20:45,640
just came out because I was
looking up about effort.
1548
01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:49,120
That's big for them because that
guy's got 50 plus tackles.
1549
01:20:49,320 --> 01:20:52,520
So losing him is definitely
could open up some things for
1550
01:20:52,520 --> 01:20:54,960
the run game because the Shelton
point, they don't have a good
1551
01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:57,120
pass T, but they do have pretty
good run D.
1552
01:20:57,520 --> 01:21:00,680
So let's flip it over.
Let's talk about some hokey keys
1553
01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:05,840
before we give our predictions.
Shelton, what is your key this
1554
01:21:05,840 --> 01:21:08,400
weekend?
Man, why did it have to go
1555
01:21:08,400 --> 01:21:13,040
first?
Because Kali gets mad when I
1556
01:21:13,040 --> 01:21:16,560
pick him.
You put me on the spot.
1557
01:21:17,960 --> 01:21:22,160
I don't know.
I think I would say defensively
1558
01:21:22,160 --> 01:21:25,080
I I'd focus there, just, you
know, make sure you pressure the
1559
01:21:25,080 --> 01:21:27,200
QB.
I think, you know, get off
1560
01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:28,600
blocks.
Again, like we talked about,
1561
01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:31,280
this is a Georgia Tech team that
really loves to, you know, work
1562
01:21:31,280 --> 01:21:33,680
the short game.
So you got to, you know, make
1563
01:21:33,680 --> 01:21:35,520
sure you're getting off blocks,
you know, attacking downhill,
1564
01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:38,680
being physical and just, you
know, you know, run into the
1565
01:21:38,680 --> 01:21:40,120
ball carrier.
That's that's the biggest for
1566
01:21:40,120 --> 01:21:42,480
the defense.
I think, you know, Georgia Tech
1567
01:21:42,480 --> 01:21:46,520
has some holes on defense, but
it's the offense for GT that I'm
1568
01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:47,720
a little bit more concerned
about.
1569
01:21:47,720 --> 01:21:50,160
So just try to, you know, try to
limit their short passing game.
1570
01:21:50,720 --> 01:21:53,840
Got it, Tally, Just because
that's up for you there.
1571
01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:56,600
Hey.
The lemon pepper wings at the
1572
01:21:56,600 --> 01:21:58,400
strip club are always lemon
pepper wet.
1573
01:21:58,800 --> 01:22:02,640
Yeah, so you know what?
You know what damn it, we done
1574
01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:05,720
had a lot of stuff going on on
this show and I've been writing
1575
01:22:05,720 --> 01:22:08,960
down stuff that y'all been doing
over here today and y'all need
1576
01:22:08,960 --> 01:22:12,680
to get your acts together.
Talking about wings being wet at
1577
01:22:12,680 --> 01:22:16,440
the at the strip club.
That's that's something that I'm
1578
01:22:16,440 --> 01:22:20,520
going to talk to Jack about.
That's number one, Sheldon said
1579
01:22:20,520 --> 01:22:22,400
bugaboo earlier he.
Did say you know.
1580
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:27,760
He said Bugaboo earlier.
I heard it, Brian said.
1581
01:22:27,760 --> 01:22:30,440
Gangbuster.
You know, I don't know how to
1582
01:22:30,440 --> 01:22:34,000
feel about Brian saying
Gangbuster and talking about wet
1583
01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:37,360
wings at a club.
There's a lot going on.
1584
01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:39,440
He also said Curtis was a roller
coaster ride.
1585
01:22:39,440 --> 01:22:41,480
I am a roller coaster ride.
What's going?
1586
01:22:41,520 --> 01:22:43,360
On that might be a shirt, right?
Hey, what?
1587
01:22:43,360 --> 01:22:45,080
I'll put your my heads.
Hey, man.
1588
01:22:46,280 --> 01:22:48,360
Y'all need to go to church?
On tally, said pause.
1589
01:22:49,080 --> 01:22:52,280
What is going on today?
And last but not least, Rick
1590
01:22:52,280 --> 01:22:55,960
Talk said he takes it hard.
He said it a couple of times.
1591
01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:58,440
This show's got a little while
today.
1592
01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:00,480
I'm going to ring it back in.
Really.
1593
01:23:00,480 --> 01:23:01,120
Back in?
Bring it.
1594
01:23:01,880 --> 01:23:05,640
Back in Cal, what's the key?
Key to US winning is to stay
1595
01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:07,360
ugly.
We need to be ugly.
1596
01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:10,240
We don't need to get cute.
You know, every time we get
1597
01:23:10,240 --> 01:23:13,160
cute, we do something stupid.
I think last week we had it
1598
01:23:13,160 --> 01:23:15,000
rolling.
We put the backup quarterback in
1599
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:18,600
to try to do something.
We lost some yards and then some
1600
01:23:18,840 --> 01:23:22,040
crazy stuff start happening.
Hey, the stuff that's working,
1601
01:23:22,040 --> 01:23:24,960
let's just keep it working.
Let's get just stay ugly.
1602
01:23:25,320 --> 01:23:27,200
Let's just be us.
That's what I think all.
1603
01:23:28,280 --> 01:23:32,120
Right, Bron?
Siegel, continue to be who you
1604
01:23:32,120 --> 01:23:35,560
are, man.
I think we finally showed what
1605
01:23:35,560 --> 01:23:38,680
this team is capable of.
I think we've seen it
1606
01:23:38,680 --> 01:23:41,400
consistently the last really
three weeks, you know,
1607
01:23:41,400 --> 01:23:43,840
back-to-back here that we've had
a game.
1608
01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:47,160
That's the team that I expected
to start a year and just keep
1609
01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:50,080
being that team.
If you keep being that team, you
1610
01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:52,680
know everybody in front of you
is pretty much on the table for
1611
01:23:52,680 --> 01:23:58,520
AW, so that's what you got to
do. 100% And my key is treat to
1612
01:23:58,520 --> 01:24:02,760
back up like a starter, treat
Zach like he's saying he's team
1613
01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:06,520
and I think maybe the best thing
going in that is what he did in
1614
01:24:06,520 --> 01:24:08,880
2022 here.
He did not have a great game
1615
01:24:08,880 --> 01:24:11,320
coming in that week, but he beat
us.
1616
01:24:11,720 --> 01:24:14,720
And I think sometimes just show
the film like this guy can come
1617
01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:17,160
down here and win.
Don't think he's a backup.
1618
01:24:17,280 --> 01:24:20,320
Go out there, hit him as hard as
you would hit Haynes King.
1619
01:24:20,320 --> 01:24:23,880
Make him pay for his runs.
He decides to hold it on to an
1620
01:24:23,880 --> 01:24:25,520
extra second, strip the ball
from him.
1621
01:24:25,680 --> 01:24:29,160
So do not act like that.
He is a backup quarterback.
1622
01:24:29,800 --> 01:24:32,040
All right, let's get to the
predictions here.
1623
01:24:32,440 --> 01:24:34,720
And you know what?
I'm going to go first this week
1624
01:24:35,320 --> 01:24:38,720
because you know y'all let me
run the controls and I am going
1625
01:24:38,720 --> 01:24:41,400
to go with a Hokies win.
I don't think it's going to
1626
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:43,080
quite be the blowout like last
week.
1627
01:24:43,080 --> 01:24:45,680
I do not think we're going to
cover this, but I think we're
1628
01:24:45,680 --> 01:24:51,120
going to win 27 to 18, Going to
have a couple big ones.
1629
01:24:51,160 --> 01:24:54,520
I know we know talking about
that rush defensive theirs
1630
01:24:54,520 --> 01:24:58,520
without the man in the middle
and even if he comes in, y'all
1631
01:24:58,520 --> 01:25:02,040
know if you have some sort of
injury, there's going to be
1632
01:25:02,040 --> 01:25:04,880
something limited.
So in that case, we're on Adam.
1633
01:25:04,880 --> 01:25:10,880
Give me 2718 pokies.
Hang on for A2 score Win Brian.
1634
01:25:12,640 --> 01:25:14,360
I got us winning, I got us
covering.
1635
01:25:14,360 --> 01:25:17,400
Give me 3420 Hokies.
I think we go out there and take
1636
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:19,960
care of business.
I think that we are going to see
1637
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:23,240
similar type of success through
the air and on the ground like
1638
01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:25,880
we saw again Stanford.
I think it is going to be a
1639
01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:27,560
pretty balanced 1.
I think we will have a little
1640
01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:29,800
bit more success in the running
game that we had against
1641
01:25:29,800 --> 01:25:32,360
Stanford.
But overall, I think we handled
1642
01:25:32,360 --> 01:25:35,360
that business for four quarters.
3420 Hokies.
1643
01:25:36,040 --> 01:25:39,840
Yep, and actually it was 9 1/2
so something else has changed
1644
01:25:39,840 --> 01:25:44,360
because the spreads went up to
11 1/2 now so I did not know
1645
01:25:44,360 --> 01:25:46,800
that I thought it was at 9:00,
so I'm not covering Brian still
1646
01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:48,680
got covering Sheldon.
What about you?
1647
01:25:48,680 --> 01:25:52,480
I'll.
Take Vt 27 to 17.
1648
01:25:52,960 --> 01:25:55,520
I think augments will be fine.
I just don't.
1649
01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:57,880
I don't trust GT with their
quarterback situation.
1650
01:25:58,080 --> 01:25:59,960
They'll they'll get a couple
touchdowns but that's it.
1651
01:25:59,960 --> 01:26:03,400
So Hoagies won't quite cover,
but I do believe it will be the
1652
01:26:03,400 --> 01:26:06,680
first time in the Brent pie era
that the Hokies do not win by 17
1653
01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:10,000
or more points.
All right, John Talley.
1654
01:26:10,680 --> 01:26:12,920
Hey, man, I told you I got to
stay true to it.
1655
01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:15,840
I'm going Georgia Tech.
I'm going to keep doing it.
1656
01:26:15,840 --> 01:26:18,560
Locker room material, Georgia
Tech.
1657
01:26:18,560 --> 01:26:20,120
I say it's going to be a close
game.
1658
01:26:20,640 --> 01:26:24,280
Until we prove we can win those
games consistently, I'm going to
1659
01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:29,600
continue saying it.
Again, I hate to say it, but if
1660
01:26:29,600 --> 01:26:31,400
it keeps us winning, I'm going
to say it every week.
1661
01:26:31,640 --> 01:26:36,840
So we'll go.
Georgia Tech 27/27/21 Georgia
1662
01:26:36,840 --> 01:26:40,480
Tech.
All right, there we go. 2721
1663
01:26:40,480 --> 01:26:43,080
Jonathan Talley, there are our
predictions.
1664
01:26:43,080 --> 01:26:46,560
Feel free put your predictions
in the comment section.
1665
01:26:46,560 --> 01:26:53,320
All right, let's turn it on.
Let's go to big screeners where
1666
01:26:53,320 --> 01:26:57,800
last week, other than me and
Tally Tally, we didn't have a
1667
01:26:57,800 --> 01:26:59,160
good week, man.
You got 2 right?
1668
01:26:59,160 --> 01:27:01,440
I got one right.
Everybody else was 500.
1669
01:27:02,080 --> 01:27:06,480
I got the money one right.
I did get the the song game,
1670
01:27:06,480 --> 01:27:07,880
right.
That's the only one.
1671
01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:12,320
But as of right now, pretty much
everybody's pretty much a coin
1672
01:27:12,320 --> 01:27:15,040
flip except Brian.
He's slightly better than a coin
1673
01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:18,440
flip.
So if you got your money, put it
1674
01:27:18,440 --> 01:27:20,760
with Brian.
Maybe, maybe not.
1675
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:26,080
All right, so we got to begin.
We'll get into the the week of
1676
01:27:26,080 --> 01:27:28,360
college football when we get to
choose these.
1677
01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:32,120
It's actually it's actually
becoming more difficult because
1678
01:27:32,120 --> 01:27:35,360
there are so many good games on
the slate every week, like
1679
01:27:35,360 --> 01:27:39,240
pivotal games for potential
conference championships, rank
1680
01:27:39,240 --> 01:27:42,560
matchup, rivalry games.
So let's start it this week.
1681
01:27:42,560 --> 01:27:44,960
Brian Siegler, where are you
travelling us to?
1682
01:27:46,240 --> 01:27:52,520
College Station, baby, LSU,
Texas A&M, A&M's got that, that
1683
01:27:52,520 --> 01:27:55,480
2 1/2 there.
And you know what?
1684
01:27:55,800 --> 01:27:58,760
I haven't really liked what I've
seen overall from this A&M
1685
01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:01,680
squad.
LSUI think it's been a little
1686
01:28:01,680 --> 01:28:04,360
more consistent.
So I'm actually going to take
1687
01:28:04,360 --> 01:28:07,000
LSU to cover here and take the
win outright.
1688
01:28:08,480 --> 01:28:11,160
All righty, I'm, I'm going to
get the exact opposite of you.
1689
01:28:11,200 --> 01:28:14,440
I I think Texas A&M is slowly
finding their identity under
1690
01:28:14,440 --> 01:28:20,040
Elko.
LSU help me beat the Ole Miss,
1691
01:28:20,040 --> 01:28:21,880
but they are not in Death
Valley.
1692
01:28:21,880 --> 01:28:25,440
That is going to be a Saturday
night game down at Kyle Field
1693
01:28:25,920 --> 01:28:28,560
late 2 1/2.
I think first of all, get ready
1694
01:28:28,560 --> 01:28:31,400
for a fun game.
I think you know, there's always
1695
01:28:31,400 --> 01:28:33,280
games like watch this game.
It's going to be entertaining.
1696
01:28:33,280 --> 01:28:37,480
I think this is going to be an
entertaining game, but A&M slips
1697
01:28:37,480 --> 01:28:40,640
it by like 6 points at the end
to beat LSU.
1698
01:28:41,640 --> 01:28:43,920
Sheldon.
I'll take A&M.
1699
01:28:44,080 --> 01:28:46,920
Normally this would be let down
here for the Aggies, but I feel
1700
01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:48,800
like this the first time in a
while the Texas and Ms. had a
1701
01:28:48,800 --> 01:28:50,600
real head coach.
I love what Elko's doing, so I
1702
01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:51,800
think he's got his boys ready
all.
1703
01:28:53,520 --> 01:28:57,560
Right, Kelly?
I'm a big Elko fan and not a
1704
01:28:57,640 --> 01:29:03,520
Brian Kelly fan but I am AI
think his name is Weeks for LSU
1705
01:29:03,520 --> 01:29:07,040
the linebacker.
He is a monster and every time
1706
01:29:07,040 --> 01:29:10,320
I've seen to bet against LSU
they found a way to win.
1707
01:29:10,320 --> 01:29:12,240
So I'm going to go LSU this week
all.
1708
01:29:13,040 --> 01:29:17,360
Right, Tally goes LSU, our
wonderful rider Miranda goes LSU
1709
01:29:17,720 --> 01:29:21,160
and the music Man says LSU as
well.
1710
01:29:21,920 --> 01:29:26,360
All righty, I am next on this
and I am going to Thursday night
1711
01:29:26,640 --> 01:29:28,440
where Matt Berry's trying to
stay out there.
1712
01:29:28,440 --> 01:29:29,880
Pitt, you got a lot to live up
to.
1713
01:29:30,080 --> 01:29:32,800
First of all, Matt, Pitt is not
going to live up to the
1714
01:29:32,800 --> 01:29:36,480
atmosphere or the excitement
that you got on campus and in
1715
01:29:36,480 --> 01:29:39,480
Lane Stadium.
So please notate that you're not
1716
01:29:39,480 --> 01:29:42,840
going to get that anywhere else.
Pitt, Syracuse is actually a
1717
01:29:42,840 --> 01:29:46,520
pretty big game within the ACC
Pitt currently undefeated,
1718
01:29:46,760 --> 01:29:53,320
Syracuse only with one loss.
So for this one, I think
1719
01:29:53,320 --> 01:29:57,280
Syracuse is going to beat Pit.
I think they going to make Pit
1720
01:29:57,280 --> 01:30:02,000
eat shit pimp for some reason
and shell, maybe I'm I'm just
1721
01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:04,800
making it up.
I just yes, they're unbeaten,
1722
01:30:04,800 --> 01:30:08,280
but it's just like it may be the
most unimpressive 6 and O in the
1723
01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:11,760
country.
Maybe, maybe not, but it's yeah,
1724
01:30:11,760 --> 01:30:14,480
look, look it up, see if it's
one of the most unimpressive 6
1725
01:30:14,480 --> 01:30:17,080
and O's in the country.
I know they're big wins West
1726
01:30:17,080 --> 01:30:19,040
Virginia, but I'm taking
Syracuse.
1727
01:30:19,040 --> 01:30:20,920
Give me the point.
Syracuse wins outright.
1728
01:30:22,160 --> 01:30:25,800
Curtis, I'm going to piggyback
on that and say that these
1729
01:30:25,880 --> 01:30:29,160
teams, both teams have really
good records and neither of them
1730
01:30:29,160 --> 01:30:33,200
are impressive in my opinion,
the five and one or the six and
1731
01:30:33,200 --> 01:30:35,760
O, But in this case, Pitt needs
to eat some shit.
1732
01:30:36,200 --> 01:30:40,000
So that's what I'm going with.
Yeah, this was a this was a
1733
01:30:40,000 --> 01:30:42,600
tough game to pick.
I mean, I took Syracuse, but
1734
01:30:42,600 --> 01:30:45,000
man, I'm, I just, I do not feel
good at all about it.
1735
01:30:45,000 --> 01:30:48,720
And I did confirm Pitt has the
the lowest SP plus ranking of
1736
01:30:48,720 --> 01:30:50,760
all the undefeated teams in the
power floor.
1737
01:30:50,760 --> 01:30:54,360
So, you know, they're, they've
won 39 barely.
1738
01:30:54,520 --> 01:30:56,000
Oh damn, they're not even in the
top.
1739
01:30:56,040 --> 01:30:57,440
Well, they're, well, actually,
no, sorry.
1740
01:30:57,680 --> 01:30:59,240
They were 30th.
So offense is 39.
1741
01:30:59,240 --> 01:31:01,760
So I mean, they've been, they've
been kind of, you know, fringe,
1742
01:31:01,960 --> 01:31:05,000
you know, top 30 teams.
But I just, I don't know.
1743
01:31:05,000 --> 01:31:07,600
I mean, they've had some breaks
go away, so I'll take Syracuse.
1744
01:31:09,720 --> 01:31:11,960
Yeah, I'm going to go Syracuse
as well.
1745
01:31:11,960 --> 01:31:15,040
Again, I'm kind of like Brian.
I mean, I think both teams are
1746
01:31:15,040 --> 01:31:20,360
solid teams, but, you know, not
the hype that kind of most
1747
01:31:20,360 --> 01:31:21,560
people were kind of throwing
out.
1748
01:31:21,560 --> 01:31:25,080
But I think Syracuse wins this
just because I need Pitt to
1749
01:31:25,080 --> 01:31:27,160
lose.
So we're going to go.
1750
01:31:27,160 --> 01:31:30,600
We're going to go Syracuse.
There we go.
1751
01:31:31,200 --> 01:31:35,480
Miranda's riding with us, guys.
Jason is going the other way.
1752
01:31:36,160 --> 01:31:37,800
He's he's taking the Panthers
here.
1753
01:31:38,160 --> 01:31:40,440
I hope you're wrong, Jason, so
I'm going to let you know that
1754
01:31:40,440 --> 01:31:43,960
right now.
Shelton Moss, where are you
1755
01:31:43,960 --> 01:31:47,040
going this.
Week Let's Go game day is going
1756
01:31:47,040 --> 01:31:50,760
to Indiana for the first time
ever after we got Cal a couple
1757
01:31:50,760 --> 01:31:53,960
weeks ago.
My goal is for What is that?
1758
01:31:54,240 --> 01:31:58,600
Does that mean the only place of
the Power 5 to never host is it?
1759
01:31:58,600 --> 01:32:00,800
Is it official now?
No, it's not official.
1760
01:32:00,800 --> 01:32:02,520
There's still like.
Five.
1761
01:32:02,520 --> 01:32:05,040
That's 5.
Yeah, like they've never been to
1762
01:32:05,040 --> 01:32:08,000
Syracuse, but a couple others.
But my goal is for everyone to
1763
01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:11,080
host except for UVA.
That'd be that'd be a admirable,
1764
01:32:12,520 --> 01:32:14,800
most admirable.
Yes, yes.
1765
01:32:15,480 --> 01:32:17,480
So, but anyways, I think this
will be a really fun match up.
1766
01:32:17,480 --> 01:32:19,360
There is some uncertainty with
Andy and his QB.
1767
01:32:19,560 --> 01:32:23,520
That being said, I will take
Washington because again, I
1768
01:32:23,520 --> 01:32:25,480
just, I think it is coming off a
big win.
1769
01:32:25,680 --> 01:32:27,280
They don't know if their QB is
going to start.
1770
01:32:27,600 --> 01:32:32,240
So give me the Huskies.
You know what, I'm going to have
1771
01:32:32,240 --> 01:32:35,040
to go the other direction here.
I think, I think Indiana's
1772
01:32:35,040 --> 01:32:36,520
playing really good football
right now.
1773
01:32:36,520 --> 01:32:41,040
I think if the quarterback is
able to go, I'm going to like
1774
01:32:41,040 --> 01:32:44,120
them to cover that 6 1/2.
So let me go with Indiana and
1775
01:32:44,240 --> 01:32:46,880
we'll and we'll see if the if
the quarterback goes, but I'll,
1776
01:32:46,880 --> 01:32:48,640
I'll take that that risk right
now.
1777
01:32:49,920 --> 01:32:52,400
Yeah, they made me, they made
all of us look foolish last
1778
01:32:52,400 --> 01:32:53,560
week.
I'm not betting against them
1779
01:32:53,560 --> 01:32:55,840
right now.
Give me Indiana, I'll lay 6 1/2
1780
01:32:56,160 --> 01:33:00,480
versus Washington.
You know Sheldon's got UW tally.
1781
01:33:01,040 --> 01:33:02,680
I got to go to Indiana, like
Curtis said.
1782
01:33:02,680 --> 01:33:06,040
It kind of made me look crazy,
you know, thinking just what
1783
01:33:06,040 --> 01:33:08,040
they did last week.
So the whole.
1784
01:33:08,080 --> 01:33:10,480
Crew look crazy.
Everybody rode with Nebraska and
1785
01:33:10,480 --> 01:33:13,280
we all had egg on our face.
Man, yes we did, but.
1786
01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:19,480
Miranda's riding with with the
boys here, and so is Jason.
1787
01:33:19,480 --> 01:33:21,000
So, Sheldon, you're out there on
the island.
1788
01:33:21,600 --> 01:33:22,880
On the island, it's his game.
I'm.
1789
01:33:23,480 --> 01:33:24,640
I'm the Kurt Curb Street right
now.
1790
01:33:25,080 --> 01:33:26,360
There you go.
All against the green.
1791
01:33:27,800 --> 01:33:31,920
All righty Taliban, what is your
game, Sir?
1792
01:33:32,240 --> 01:33:35,600
Man, we're going to go to, you
know, Vandy in in Texas here.
1793
01:33:36,040 --> 01:33:39,440
Texas is coming off of a loss.
You know, Vandy's kind of riding
1794
01:33:39,440 --> 01:33:42,440
high this this this year in
general.
1795
01:33:42,920 --> 01:33:48,720
I don't think Vandy wins this
game, but I think Vandy covers
1796
01:33:48,720 --> 01:33:50,520
that spread.
I think they're going to make it
1797
01:33:50,920 --> 01:33:54,080
a heart attack game for Texas
just because Povy is a gamer.
1798
01:33:54,480 --> 01:33:59,400
So I'm going Vandy this game.
You know, what I've learned
1799
01:33:59,600 --> 01:34:02,400
watching some of these
Vanderbilt games is that
1800
01:34:02,400 --> 01:34:06,520
Vanderbilt absolutely plays to
whatever the competition level
1801
01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:11,360
is of their opponent.
They, they, they played down to
1802
01:34:11,360 --> 01:34:13,960
the, to the ball states of the
world.
1803
01:34:14,520 --> 01:34:17,440
You know, they, they, they took
a loss to AG5 school, but they
1804
01:34:17,800 --> 01:34:20,920
beaten Alabama.
They played what, Missouri
1805
01:34:20,920 --> 01:34:24,440
Pretty tough.
You know, I think this is a team
1806
01:34:24,440 --> 01:34:27,480
that kind of matches the energy
of whoever their opponent is.
1807
01:34:27,480 --> 01:34:30,600
So 18 1/2 is way too much there.
So give me Vandy here.
1808
01:34:31,440 --> 01:34:36,160
Yep, I'm with you.
Way too much. 18 1/2 is way too
1809
01:34:36,160 --> 01:34:39,040
much.
And also watching Texas's
1810
01:34:39,040 --> 01:34:43,480
defense, they had a couple very
difficult times defending some
1811
01:34:43,480 --> 01:34:46,720
of those runs against Georgia.
And I know it's a little bit of
1812
01:34:46,720 --> 01:34:50,480
different style, but they've
shown sort of the flaw and it's
1813
01:34:50,480 --> 01:34:53,600
probably that rush defense.
And again, I don't know, Jerry
1814
01:34:53,600 --> 01:34:57,880
Keel and Tim Beck and Clark Lee
are going to lean on fall
1815
01:34:57,880 --> 01:34:59,960
control.
We're going to run the ball a
1816
01:34:59,960 --> 01:35:02,160
lot.
It's in Nashville.
1817
01:35:02,160 --> 01:35:04,160
Josh, just put that up there in
the chat.
1818
01:35:04,160 --> 01:35:08,520
Josh Young shout out.
I think they beat them by like a
1819
01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:12,040
field goal.
Texas is going to hold out, but
1820
01:35:12,040 --> 01:35:14,120
Vanderbilt is going to shock
their life.
1821
01:35:14,400 --> 01:35:17,000
Sheldon.
Vanderbilt's actually been one
1822
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:19,280
of the top ten teams in the
country in terms of
1823
01:35:19,480 --> 01:35:21,920
outperforming the spread based
on point totals.
1824
01:35:22,200 --> 01:35:24,040
For whatever reason, the
computers have just had a hard
1825
01:35:24,040 --> 01:35:26,640
time with this scene this year.
For that reason, I'm taking
1826
01:35:26,640 --> 01:35:28,920
Vandy. 18.5 just sounds way too
big.
1827
01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:33,560
Yep, and we are riding as a
family.
1828
01:35:35,200 --> 01:35:38,160
Sandy across the board, baby.
Sandy, across the board, you
1829
01:35:38,160 --> 01:35:40,320
ever think you see that a day in
your life?
1830
01:35:40,320 --> 01:35:44,360
Everybody picking Vandy with
points against a program like
1831
01:35:44,360 --> 01:35:48,520
Texas, Not I, not I.
All righty, let's roll next.
1832
01:35:48,520 --> 01:35:53,640
We've got Miranda's pick, which
I almost picked this one.
1833
01:35:53,800 --> 01:36:00,080
We got Notre Dame against
undefeated Navy, undefeated top
1834
01:36:00,080 --> 01:36:03,800
25 ranked Navy.
It's going to be at the gorgeous
1835
01:36:03,800 --> 01:36:08,080
Annapolis Stadium where I love.
I got a chance to go and watch
1836
01:36:08,080 --> 01:36:12,360
the Hokies play.
Navy getting 12 1/2 points.
1837
01:36:12,400 --> 01:36:14,120
Brian, where are you on this
one?
1838
01:36:14,520 --> 01:36:17,160
Yeah, and it's the 12 1/2 for
me.
1839
01:36:17,160 --> 01:36:20,080
I think Notre Dame does win this
game, but it's a very good year
1840
01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:22,880
for the service academies in
general and a very good year for
1841
01:36:22,880 --> 01:36:26,320
Navy so far.
And I think their style of play,
1842
01:36:26,320 --> 01:36:29,360
if, if Notre Dame doesn't jump
out on them quick offensively,
1843
01:36:29,360 --> 01:36:31,280
they're going to grind that game
to a halt.
1844
01:36:32,160 --> 01:36:34,800
I could see Notre Dame pulling,
pulling out a 10 point win, but
1845
01:36:34,800 --> 01:36:37,200
that's about it.
So I'm going with baby here.
1846
01:36:38,080 --> 01:36:41,680
Yeah, and you, you just
summarize exactly why 12 1/2 is
1847
01:36:41,680 --> 01:36:47,560
way too much.
And right now they are 7 and O
1848
01:36:47,560 --> 01:36:53,720
excuse me, 6 and O The closest
game they have had this year is
1849
01:36:53,720 --> 01:36:59,800
a 12 point win against Memphis.
They hung 56 on Memphis.
1850
01:37:00,600 --> 01:37:02,640
No one has slowed them down all
year.
1851
01:37:03,120 --> 01:37:06,200
I do think Notre Dame slows them
down, but not to the tune of 12
1852
01:37:06,200 --> 01:37:12,480
1/2 points.
Yeah, historically, historically
1853
01:37:12,480 --> 01:37:15,200
Notre Dame is dominated as
rivalry and they've they've had
1854
01:37:15,240 --> 01:37:17,040
a pretty easy time with maybe
even in recent years.
1855
01:37:17,040 --> 01:37:20,160
So I think it's a good match up
for for Notre Dame and I'll take
1856
01:37:20,160 --> 01:37:24,920
the Irish.
Laying 12 1/2 when that first
1857
01:37:24,920 --> 01:37:27,960
drive hold on when that first
drive takes 9 minutes, Sheldon
1858
01:37:27,960 --> 01:37:29,880
going to be worried about his 12
1/2 points.
1859
01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:32,640
Like why did that take so long,
Tally?
1860
01:37:33,040 --> 01:37:36,360
Yeah, I got to go Navy here just
for the fact that if I if I
1861
01:37:36,360 --> 01:37:38,240
didn't think my brother may kill
me.
1862
01:37:38,240 --> 01:37:42,000
So I'm going to go Navy.
From the fart.
1863
01:37:42,640 --> 01:37:46,160
Miranda's ride with Sheldon and
Jason's coming along with the
1864
01:37:46,160 --> 01:37:49,520
rest of us here.
By the way, betting on games
1865
01:37:49,520 --> 01:37:52,720
that involve teams that run the
triple option, like when you are
1866
01:37:52,720 --> 01:37:56,120
laying points, it's a it's like
one of the worst fields ever
1867
01:37:56,280 --> 01:37:59,040
when they when they get going on
their first drive and you'd like
1868
01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:01,000
you're laying 13 and it's like
that.
1869
01:38:01,000 --> 01:38:05,960
Even if they get a field goal
here, like we my team still
1870
01:38:05,960 --> 01:38:09,080
going to win this game, but they
win by like 9.
1871
01:38:10,760 --> 01:38:16,160
All right, we got our buddy
Jason Long, always playing a
1872
01:38:16,160 --> 01:38:19,800
little music, always picking a
game, occasionally going broke
1873
01:38:19,800 --> 01:38:23,400
and asking us for Venmo money.
He did not have to do that last
1874
01:38:23,400 --> 01:38:24,440
week.
He actually had a pretty good
1875
01:38:24,440 --> 01:38:27,760
week in his NFL bet.
So he got, he's not hitting me
1876
01:38:27,760 --> 01:38:31,520
and Brian up for gambling funds
this week, but he is going to
1877
01:38:31,520 --> 01:38:55,400
the Nebraska, Ohio State game.
I want to stand on you ain't
1878
01:38:56,000 --> 01:39:02,840
gonna start.
You better stop.
1879
01:39:02,840 --> 01:39:08,200
Not a thing to do.
When I said wipe down, I ain't
1880
01:39:08,280 --> 01:39:20,520
done.
This.
1881
01:39:47,320 --> 01:39:49,840
Hey, welcome back to Guitar
Licks and Gambling Picks.
1882
01:39:49,840 --> 01:39:52,840
I'm Jason Long and it's close to
Halloween, so it's playing
1883
01:39:52,840 --> 01:39:54,400
around with one of my favorite
songs.
1884
01:39:54,400 --> 01:39:56,920
I Put a Spell on You.
A bunch of people have covered
1885
01:39:56,920 --> 01:40:00,800
that song, say Nuna Simone, CCR,
The Sanderson Sisters.
1886
01:40:00,960 --> 01:40:03,600
Hell, I even recorded it last
year, put it on a little album
1887
01:40:03,600 --> 01:40:06,640
called Other People's Children
and you can find that anywhere
1888
01:40:06,640 --> 01:40:10,560
you buy or stream music.
Now, the original artist and
1889
01:40:10,840 --> 01:40:13,360
songwriter of that song is
actually a guy named Screaming
1890
01:40:13,360 --> 01:40:16,640
Jay Hawkins, who was born and
raised in Ohio.
1891
01:40:16,880 --> 01:40:19,960
That just so happens to be where
I'm looking at for this week's
1892
01:40:19,960 --> 01:40:23,600
pick.
Now, Nebraska travels to Ohio
1893
01:40:23,600 --> 01:40:28,040
State Saturday, and they're
looking like they're big, big,
1894
01:40:28,040 --> 01:40:30,920
big underdogs.
Ohio State is currently giving
1895
01:40:30,920 --> 01:40:35,760
up 23 1/2 points.
That's a scary amount of points
1896
01:40:35,760 --> 01:40:39,040
to give up, but in honor of
spooky season and screaming
1897
01:40:39,040 --> 01:40:43,560
jiffy, I figured might as well
go ahead and lay down 23 1/2
1898
01:40:43,560 --> 01:40:46,400
points.
Ohio State at home against
1899
01:40:46,400 --> 01:40:48,800
Nebraska Saturday night.
That's the way I'm rolling Go
1900
01:40:48,800 --> 01:40:54,800
bugging us.
I want to stay on you.
1901
01:40:54,840 --> 01:41:11,920
Me going to fire you better
start out of things doing and I
1902
01:41:12,280 --> 01:41:22,440
said why down I ain't lying.
I ain't gonna take that as you
1903
01:41:22,480 --> 01:41:23,080
will.
I ain't gonna take.
1904
01:41:23,560 --> 01:41:28,600
That on your.
Own I'll burn you and I will
1905
01:41:28,600 --> 01:41:33,960
stay on you.
We ain't gonna die.
1906
01:41:52,240 --> 01:41:58,840
See you next week, right?
So there we are, Nebraska, Ohio
1907
01:41:58,840 --> 01:42:03,840
State in the horseshoe, Ohio
State laying 23 1/2.
1908
01:42:03,840 --> 01:42:07,240
We see Jason throwing some big
gambling, laying a lot of
1909
01:42:07,240 --> 01:42:09,120
points.
Brian, what about you?
1910
01:42:11,360 --> 01:42:16,640
You know what, as our buddy in
the in the chat here, Josh Young
1911
01:42:16,640 --> 01:42:20,120
says, I think great value by
homes, you know, kind of brings
1912
01:42:20,120 --> 01:42:24,640
it back a little bit after that
absolutely disgusting output
1913
01:42:24,640 --> 01:42:27,320
last week.
So I'm going to Nebraska here.
1914
01:42:27,320 --> 01:42:31,400
Just this 23 1/2 is just a
little too much for a team that
1915
01:42:31,400 --> 01:42:34,520
in Nebraska.
I think it's still solid, if
1916
01:42:34,520 --> 01:42:37,800
not, you know, upper echelon big
10 team here.
1917
01:42:37,800 --> 01:42:41,960
So I think if you if you'd have
said that was like 2020 1/2, I
1918
01:42:41,960 --> 01:42:44,160
might want to pull the trigger,
but that that extra hook is
1919
01:42:44,160 --> 01:42:45,560
going to be a little too much
for me.
1920
01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:51,520
The field goal and the hook and
I just don't think they can lose
1921
01:42:51,520 --> 01:42:57,560
by that big again.
They lost by 49 last week, so I
1922
01:42:57,560 --> 01:43:00,160
think they lose somewhere
between 17 and 20 and I'll lay
1923
01:43:00,160 --> 01:43:02,800
23 1/2.
I think it is going to be a
1924
01:43:02,800 --> 01:43:04,440
roller coaster though.
I think it's going to be the
1925
01:43:04,440 --> 01:43:07,760
Curtis wave of emotions in that
game because it's going to
1926
01:43:07,760 --> 01:43:11,600
probably Ohio State, jump out
early, Nebraska, fight back, but
1927
01:43:11,640 --> 01:43:15,240
I'll take Nebraska.
I think, I think Nebraska's have
1928
01:43:15,240 --> 01:43:17,200
a really hard time scoring.
Their offense is pretty bad.
1929
01:43:17,200 --> 01:43:19,600
And oh, I would say this is #1
defense in the country.
1930
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:23,200
I'm I'm just going to go with
the the the bounce back theory
1931
01:43:23,200 --> 01:43:26,400
here and take Ohio State.
All right.
1932
01:43:26,680 --> 01:43:30,800
Yeah, I got to go to Nebraska
and it's just because I, I don't
1933
01:43:30,800 --> 01:43:34,280
want them to get beat that bad
because I don't want Ohio State,
1934
01:43:34,680 --> 01:43:39,400
a couple of my Ohio State
buddies to to be able to, to
1935
01:43:39,400 --> 01:43:42,680
brag about this season.
So I don't think Nebraska's
1936
01:43:42,680 --> 01:43:45,040
going to win the game, but I
don't think they're going to be
1937
01:43:45,040 --> 01:43:48,160
get beat by 23 and a half, 24
points.
1938
01:43:49,520 --> 01:43:53,080
All right, there we go.
Miranda says Nebraska.
1939
01:43:53,080 --> 01:43:56,080
So Jason and Shelton.
So there are the big screens
1940
01:43:56,080 --> 01:44:00,120
this weekend and it is a lot
more fun games to be watching
1941
01:44:00,120 --> 01:44:03,360
this weekend.
Hokey game is a noon kick
1942
01:44:04,080 --> 01:44:06,240
everybody.
So I'm going to be watching it
1943
01:44:06,240 --> 01:44:08,080
on replay.
I will not be blowing up the
1944
01:44:08,080 --> 01:44:11,720
chat because we got baseball.
I'll be watching like the 1st 10
1945
01:44:11,720 --> 01:44:14,200
minutes and then we go into
baseball game until like 3.
1946
01:44:14,200 --> 01:44:16,960
So y'all don't get the way out
to the regular coaster of
1947
01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:21,040
emotions of Curtis.
So, yeah, all right, anything
1948
01:44:21,040 --> 01:44:22,640
you're.
Just going to be cursing like
1949
01:44:22,920 --> 01:44:24,920
periodic, you like what the fuck
are we doing?
1950
01:44:24,920 --> 01:44:27,240
And then you go back to it and
then you like pull it up again.
1951
01:44:27,240 --> 01:44:29,320
Like what the fuck are we doing?
Yeah, that's what's going to
1952
01:44:29,320 --> 01:44:33,760
happen or I won't say anything.
If it's going well, you're going
1953
01:44:33,760 --> 01:44:37,120
to be like hey this is fun and
then like ignore your phone for
1954
01:44:37,120 --> 01:44:39,040
another 2.
Hours, my phone exactly.
1955
01:44:39,040 --> 01:44:41,520
Well, like 5 minutes.
I'll be pulling it up here and
1956
01:44:41,520 --> 01:44:44,560
there and everywhere.
Line just went back down to 10
1957
01:44:44,560 --> 01:44:48,000
1/2, not 11 1/2.
That line's crazy right now for
1958
01:44:48,000 --> 01:44:49,640
the tech game.
So we're we're moving up and
1959
01:44:49,640 --> 01:44:52,360
down.
I think they're I think they the
1960
01:44:52,360 --> 01:44:56,160
initial reaction was national
media saying, you know, we
1961
01:44:56,160 --> 01:45:00,440
weren't getting Ames King and
then Brinky saying day-to-day,
1962
01:45:00,440 --> 01:45:02,400
week to week, you know, we don't
know yet.
1963
01:45:02,400 --> 01:45:06,280
So it probably moved jumped up
two points and they, you know,
1964
01:45:06,320 --> 01:45:08,800
correcting it back with that
that one point there.
1965
01:45:08,800 --> 01:45:10,840
So.
Yeah, absolutely.
1966
01:45:11,360 --> 01:45:13,040
All righty.
Anything else to add fellas
1967
01:45:13,040 --> 01:45:15,280
tonight?
Great time.
1968
01:45:16,200 --> 01:45:19,280
Great time here.
I mean, you got all kind of
1969
01:45:19,280 --> 01:45:22,080
sports on right now.
NBA season started again this
1970
01:45:22,120 --> 01:45:25,320
today.
You got basketball, you got
1971
01:45:25,320 --> 01:45:30,000
baseball, you got football.
Great time of year for a sport.
1972
01:45:30,080 --> 01:45:32,760
Say what now?
Hockey's back too, don't forget.
1973
01:45:33,200 --> 01:45:36,160
Hockey's back, too.
I mean it starts.
1974
01:45:36,400 --> 01:45:38,520
Friday night.
Dude, you got it.
1975
01:45:38,640 --> 01:45:40,440
It's a great time to be a sports
fan, man.
1976
01:45:40,960 --> 01:45:43,920
I mean, if you like to bet and
lose money, you can lose a lot
1977
01:45:43,920 --> 01:45:46,600
of money right now.
So go ahead and just dump all
1978
01:45:46,600 --> 01:45:48,640
your money on whatever you feel
like dumping it on.
1979
01:45:49,280 --> 01:45:52,480
So this is I'm excited.
I think this is what we we've
1980
01:45:52,480 --> 01:45:55,440
talked about this in the past,
like this is the sports week,
1981
01:45:56,360 --> 01:45:59,440
like it is the sports week
because World Series hockey,
1982
01:45:59,440 --> 01:46:03,520
basketball, like get you get
your fixes in this week.
1983
01:46:03,800 --> 01:46:07,120
So it's like really from this
Friday until like next Friday or
1984
01:46:07,120 --> 01:46:10,400
whenever the World Series in
it's like every single major
1985
01:46:10,400 --> 01:46:14,920
sport in the US is going
football in full season mode.
1986
01:46:15,520 --> 01:46:18,880
It's a it's a beautiful time of
the year, probably the best
1987
01:46:18,880 --> 01:46:21,480
sports week.
Oh yeah, definitely the best
1988
01:46:21,480 --> 01:46:22,760
sports week.
You get a little bit of
1989
01:46:22,760 --> 01:46:25,640
everything.
There's nothing that you know,
1990
01:46:25,640 --> 01:46:28,840
most sports fans don't have some
interest in and and can get
1991
01:46:28,840 --> 01:46:31,320
excited about.
You know, you're kind of getting
1992
01:46:31,320 --> 01:46:34,080
to the meat of the schedule from
a football standpoint, whether
1993
01:46:34,080 --> 01:46:36,880
it's NFL or college.
You got the World Series out
1994
01:46:36,880 --> 01:46:40,240
there, start of the season.
Everybody's got the hopium.
1995
01:46:40,240 --> 01:46:42,360
When you when you look at, you
know, the hockey in the in the
1996
01:46:42,360 --> 01:46:46,960
NBA, you know, you're starting
to get some early contest in,
1997
01:46:47,080 --> 01:46:49,520
you know, college basketball,
men's and women.
1998
01:46:49,520 --> 01:46:51,600
So you're starting to see a
little bit of that start to come
1999
01:46:51,600 --> 01:46:55,000
into play, you know, that'll
start, you know, tipping off
2000
01:46:55,000 --> 01:46:57,120
about the time that the World
Series is wrapping up.
2001
01:46:57,120 --> 01:47:01,200
So it's a really good time of
year for a sports fan.
2002
01:47:01,200 --> 01:47:03,720
And I think you just kind of got
to soak it up a little bit and
2003
01:47:03,720 --> 01:47:05,800
enjoy it because.
You know, that's it it.
2004
01:47:06,280 --> 01:47:09,480
It goes away pretty quick.
Sit down, grab your favorite
2005
01:47:09,480 --> 01:47:12,160
food, grab your favorite
beverage, kick your feet up and
2006
01:47:12,160 --> 01:47:15,680
enjoy the weekend.
