ZLGY 400: The Speed of the Cardinal

1
00:00:46,700 --> 00:00:50,100
Welcome back to the boundary
Corner podcast.

2
00:00:50,100 --> 00:00:53,400
My name is Curtis Wilson.
I'm Brian seagull.

3
00:00:53,400 --> 00:01:17,200
How you doing on this man again?
Got a little rainy weekend,

4
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:22,700
coming up, rainy cold, going to
probably miss, baseball,

5
00:01:22,700 --> 00:01:26,300
practice tomorrow and I'm we had
a game tonight.

6
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,900
Our field was borderline okay to
play.

7
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,700
There were still puddles and
everything and it is as much

8
00:01:32,700 --> 00:01:36,700
rain as they say.
We're going to get tomorrow into

9
00:01:36,700 --> 00:01:39,300
Friday, we're not playing till
next week sometime.

10
00:01:40,700 --> 00:01:43,300
Yeah, it's going to be a soggy
one the next couple days.

11
00:01:43,300 --> 00:01:47,500
So I figured y'all are probably
not going to see any games until

12
00:01:47,500 --> 00:01:50,100
next week.
So no, not for all if that's

13
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:53,400
what you were looking for.
All things considered, if not,

14
00:01:54,900 --> 00:01:56,700
it is what it is.
When you say fall ball, we do

15
00:01:56,700 --> 00:02:00,800
not reschedule schedule.
But tonight, let's reschedule

16
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,200
game from Monday.
So it's kind of cool, but I

17
00:02:04,208 --> 00:02:07,500
think we also need Needed to.
I think I coach saw the weather

18
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:09,800
and it's like, we're not going
to play Saturday or not going to

19
00:02:09,808 --> 00:02:12,000
play Thursday.
We're not going to play

20
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,400
Saturday, so if we don't get
them in, will be almost two

21
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,600
weeks between games which is
yeah, not a funny.

22
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,400
So got it.
Got it got to make it happening

23
00:02:21,900 --> 00:02:25,600
but this is sort of the last
week we can like really, really

24
00:02:25,700 --> 00:02:30,500
do it because I mean time change
this weekend, the next like if

25
00:02:30,500 --> 00:02:34,500
we can't get a field at five We
don't have one of the field

26
00:02:34,500 --> 00:02:37,800
lights, you know?
We're not going to be out of

27
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:39,200
play.
I mean heck we were out there

28
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,600
the last 20 minutes, it will
start to get Dusky so it was

29
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,900
kind of pushing it man.
So yeah.

30
00:02:44,900 --> 00:02:49,500
So your wife posted something,
you guys had a murder mystery

31
00:02:49,500 --> 00:02:52,000
tonight.
Well yeah well up to a

32
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,800
neighbor's house.
Did a little murder mystery in a

33
00:02:54,800 --> 00:03:01,100
box I guess they get like a
monthly thing and decided we do

34
00:03:01,100 --> 00:03:05,500
it together, we solve the
mystery, man, and two, bailiffs

35
00:03:05,900 --> 00:03:07,500
captain.
Yeah.

36
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:13,300
It was skipped / Bayless her
bailiff.

37
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,600
Well some of his takes are
murdering because there's just

38
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,000
that bad.
I mean, you know, but I guess

39
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,500
that's the way you get ahead in
sports media.

40
00:03:22,500 --> 00:03:26,800
Nowadays is just make asinine
statements and then never ever

41
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:28,400
come off of them, right?
Yeah.

42
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,400
You pick a guy you pick a player
you hate and just rip them

43
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,000
regardless of the situation
regardless of the facts

44
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,500
presented, like that's, he's
Like three or four guys, he just

45
00:03:37,500 --> 00:03:41,900
rips on regularly and then he
just throws in other bad takes

46
00:03:41,900 --> 00:03:43,600
four teams.
He doesn't like, and then he

47
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,000
just puts a bow on it, and
that's what he does even when

48
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,100
it's wrong.
Oh yeah, that's even better when

49
00:03:50,100 --> 00:03:52,100
it's wrong.
All right?

50
00:03:52,900 --> 00:03:55,300
It's all about, it's all about
clicks and eyes, man, it doesn't

51
00:03:55,300 --> 00:03:57,600
matter whether he's right.
It is true.

52
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,400
Clicks acrylics are the
important part, man.

53
00:04:00,900 --> 00:04:03,000
All right.
Well, Braun Lets Roll into it.

54
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:09,300
No, the enemy this week Hokies.
Travel West to Louisville, to

55
00:04:09,300 --> 00:04:13,900
play the Cardinals, Cardinals 2
and 4 overall, 1 and 4 in

56
00:04:13,900 --> 00:04:17,500
conference play, but they are
coming off one of the better

57
00:04:17,500 --> 00:04:22,600
performances of the year against
FSU, 4816 win, all right.

58
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,000
We'll kick it off with the
offense.

59
00:04:25,500 --> 00:04:29,800
They are they are loaded with a
three headed monster at

60
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,700
quarterback wide receiver and
running back.

61
00:04:32,700 --> 00:04:36,700
Malik Cunningham the quarterback
to to at well and JV and Hawkins

62
00:04:36,700 --> 00:04:39,000
so bright.
I want to start with Cunningham.

63
00:04:39,100 --> 00:04:41,400
Let's start at quarterback just
because he's got the ball in his

64
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,400
hands every time right before
the season.

65
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:49,400
So far put up really good
numbers. 1396 passing yards, 12

66
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,100
touchdowns five interceptions.
Sixty two point nine.

67
00:04:52,100 --> 00:04:56,000
Completion percentage.
Adding on to that 174, rushing

68
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:01,100
yards and three touchdowns.
Now, although the rushing yards

69
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,300
where they were last year,
comparatively there is no doubt.

70
00:05:05,300 --> 00:05:09,100
This is going to be the biggest
duel threat.

71
00:05:09,100 --> 00:05:13,900
The Hokies have faced all year.
You know we saw Sam Harmon run

72
00:05:13,900 --> 00:05:17,300
last week for a touchdown but
those guys compared to this guy

73
00:05:17,300 --> 00:05:22,100
it's night and day, 15th and
passing yards, 27th and passing

74
00:05:22,100 --> 00:05:25,800
efficiency and know.
Overall, he's really had one bad

75
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:26,500
game.
Brian.

76
00:05:26,500 --> 00:05:30,400
I mean in that was the pit game.
You kind of, were we picked out

77
00:05:30,407 --> 00:05:35,900
a few weeks ago where you threw
three interceptions, only 170

78
00:05:35,900 --> 00:05:38,900
yards and a 42 percent
completion.

79
00:05:38,900 --> 00:05:41,500
So you know, you got an athletic
guy back at quarterback, who

80
00:05:41,500 --> 00:05:44,200
obviously canceling, the rock
Brian.

81
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,000
What do you see out of Malik
Cunningham?

82
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,900
Definitely a guy that can beat
you with his legs.

83
00:05:50,900 --> 00:05:55,900
Like you said there, man.
That's a true dual threat.

84
00:05:55,900 --> 00:05:59,100
We've had here.
I think other guys are have been

85
00:05:59,100 --> 00:06:02,400
athletic quarterbacks.
This guy's a true dual threat,

86
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:08,800
who can dynamically beat you
with his legs and his arm, they

87
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,300
get in the ball, in the running
game, a lot of different ways.

88
00:06:11,300 --> 00:06:14,900
Sometimes that's the scrambled,
but primarily the way they draw

89
00:06:14,900 --> 00:06:18,400
it up, in terms of a coal Run
for the quarterback is going to

90
00:06:18,407 --> 00:06:22,100
be a lot of QB drawers.
So you'll see him kind of

91
00:06:22,100 --> 00:06:25,600
influence.
With kind of a drop step and

92
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,800
then he'll just take off.
Usually up the middle between

93
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,700
the tackles there, try to find a
crease get to the second level.

94
00:06:31,700 --> 00:06:33,800
Make some guys miss try to bust
a big one.

95
00:06:35,500 --> 00:06:39,600
He's also a quarterback that for
not being the biggest guy.

96
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,700
He doesn't shy away from
contact.

97
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,200
I heard something on the
broadcast where they were

98
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,600
talking about the quarterback
room talked about, we don't run

99
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,600
out of bounds, we don't slide we
fight for every yard.

100
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:55,100
So that's something that has
Kind of come back to bite them a

101
00:06:55,100 --> 00:06:59,000
couple times because Cunningham
was banged up pretty bad in the

102
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,300
pit game towards the end there.
Especially that last big shot.

103
00:07:02,300 --> 00:07:05,800
He took, oh yeah, he came off
the field once against Notre

104
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,400
Dame.
So he's going to take some shots

105
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:13,300
and there's going to be some
opportunities there their Forest

106
00:07:13,300 --> 00:07:17,800
but when he's not running, he
throws a pretty decent deep

107
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,600
ball.
That's what they like to do is

108
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,400
attack down for you with the
football.

109
00:07:22,300 --> 00:07:24,600
They're not, they're not a ding.
Conduct team.

110
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,200
They're not a team that's going
to kind of throw those

111
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,700
intermediate routes a whole lot.
They're going to throw some

112
00:07:30,700 --> 00:07:34,900
screens to the wide receivers
and then take shots so look for

113
00:07:34,900 --> 00:07:39,000
him to do that with his arm.
Some of that could be because

114
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,800
his intermediate are magar.
See is not the greatest he'll

115
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:49,800
miss on through, still wait too
long on throws but if it's not

116
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,200
there and he sees an opening
Hill, quite easily, likes to

117
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:56,300
climb the pocket early in the
after the snap and then if it's

118
00:07:56,300 --> 00:07:59,200
not there he's not afraid to
take off and makes things happen

119
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:00,500
with his legs.
So there's going to have to be a

120
00:08:00,508 --> 00:08:02,700
lot of discipline from the
defense against this guy.

121
00:08:04,500 --> 00:08:07,600
All right, so disciplined and
then something you mentioned

122
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:11,300
just a couple seconds ago.
The Deep shot the Deep balls and

123
00:08:11,300 --> 00:08:15,800
Buddy, does he have himself a
wide receiver to throw the ball

124
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:21,700
to in 22 at?
Well man, I mean he's no doubt.

125
00:08:21,700 --> 00:08:25,100
His favorite Target five
touchdowns this year 450.

126
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:31,600
Receiving yards, 32 receptions
at 14 perceptions and this

127
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,000
season, his best games have
come.

128
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,299
Um, against some of the better
athletic teams.

129
00:08:36,299 --> 00:08:41,000
Athletically gifted means with
Miami and FSU, both over 100

130
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:45,600
plus yards and he's scary, man.
I mean, this guy is a sub for

131
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:51,300
for guy, was clocked it for 38
last year and a 40, so he can

132
00:08:51,300 --> 00:08:54,500
get on it top 10 in receiving
yards, in the country and he is

133
00:08:54,500 --> 00:08:57,400
leading the ACC.
I should say, tied for the lead.

134
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,200
Now, Brian, you watched,
obviously, it's film.

135
00:09:00,900 --> 00:09:02,900
Does he play as fast as these
stats are?

136
00:09:03,100 --> 00:09:08,300
Saying and what that clock says
or is it he plays fast or he

137
00:09:08,300 --> 00:09:12,800
doesn't play Fast, impasse, he's
just passed, he's a track

138
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,000
athlete.
That also is fast on the field.

139
00:09:16,300 --> 00:09:20,500
See it run by guys run through
zones.

140
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,000
Definitely likes to take more
likes to hit him either down,

141
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:29,800
filled with the shot or in the
screen game where you can kind

142
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:35,300
of Working space a little bit so
they're not trying to run him

143
00:09:35,300 --> 00:09:38,600
over the Middle where he's
getting hit ton by linebackers

144
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:42,200
and things like that.
But what he does well is he's

145
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,500
going to outrun your guy if
you're playing that man coverage

146
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,100
if you're giving half feel
responsibility to a safety,

147
00:09:49,100 --> 00:09:52,000
that's not really something you
want to do a whole lot of either

148
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,100
and have against the FSU game
here.

149
00:09:55,100 --> 00:10:01,900
And by guy just for a touchdown
right up the sideline, You know,

150
00:10:01,900 --> 00:10:04,400
he's going to be a guy that we
have to keep in front of us the

151
00:10:04,408 --> 00:10:07,000
whole game, if we're going to
contain him, he's only an

152
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,500
average route Runner.
He's not got a great route

153
00:10:09,500 --> 00:10:13,300
Runner, but but what he does,
well is working space and just

154
00:10:13,300 --> 00:10:18,600
take the top off a defense.
And that's kind of scary when

155
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:23,100
you say that Brian because I
think about the UNC game and

156
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,900
multiple fun beat over the top
and I know we were we were still

157
00:10:26,900 --> 00:10:29,300
acting.
We were short-handed but it

158
00:10:29,300 --> 00:10:32,400
worries you when a guy's 438,
man, man.

159
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,300
The first thing you say is, if
we tried going man and he gets

160
00:10:35,300 --> 00:10:36,900
beat and they put one on the
money.

161
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:40,700
Like we have seen numerous time
in Louisville's game this year,

162
00:10:41,500 --> 00:10:43,300
it's three plays in there in the
end zone.

163
00:10:43,700 --> 00:10:48,100
And if I were to happen early
the way we Been playing

164
00:10:48,300 --> 00:10:52,100
especially on offense, you can
be very long day for us, but you

165
00:10:52,100 --> 00:10:54,900
know, is bothersome is that
isn't is worrisome.

166
00:10:54,900 --> 00:10:57,900
Is that is the third head of
this monster is absolute?

167
00:10:57,900 --> 00:11:03,200
No slouch.
JV and Hawkins has 693 yards and

168
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,500
six touchdowns 11 receptions at
85 yards.

169
00:11:06,900 --> 00:11:13,700
In three of his six games
played, he's won over 156 yards

170
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:20,700
per Rush, including last week,
10.9 against FSU.

171
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:24,500
He's already improved those
receptions from last year and

172
00:11:24,500 --> 00:11:29,000
he's kind of slowly becoming an
all-around back which is really

173
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,100
good for Louis.
Bill because they really don't

174
00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:33,400
have to substitute him out.
He can stay in there, the whole

175
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:38,600
dime. 693 yards.
There's only two people ahead of

176
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,100
them in the country.
One person had him in the

177
00:11:41,100 --> 00:11:46,800
conference Khalil Herbert's.
A guy in the conference and, you

178
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:54,900
know, it's it's pretty wild top
25 in yards per carry surprise.

179
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,300
We worry about the guys going
over the top, but they've got a

180
00:11:57,308 --> 00:12:01,200
guy that can run.
So how, you know, what do we got

181
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,100
to do to slow him down and what
does he do?

182
00:12:03,100 --> 00:12:04,800
Really well, that's going to
potentially cost.

183
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,800
I'm for the Hokies.
So, another thing with with with

184
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,400
Hawkins man we're talking about
a track athlete at wide

185
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:13,200
receiver, with that.
Well, we've got another track

186
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:18,200
athlete at running back with
Hawkins, kind of a big play guy.

187
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:22,900
If you get into the second level
really dangerous in the open

188
00:12:22,900 --> 00:12:27,400
field, but he's not going to
grind out drives like some of

189
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,200
the guys we saw with Wake Forest
or even some of the guys we saw

190
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:35,200
on UNC, he is definitely more of
a Feast, or famine, hit the big

191
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:40,600
play, or it's probably just a my
skein to a loss.

192
00:12:41,500 --> 00:12:44,400
Yeah, I've seen him thrown for a
lot of negative plays, but then

193
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,800
they'll turn around and hit just
a big chunk play with them.

194
00:12:47,300 --> 00:12:50,800
And obviously, you know, you get
30 on one carry and -5 one

195
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,300
another, you still have a pretty
damn good average there ever

196
00:12:54,300 --> 00:12:55,900
carry.
So that's kind of what you're

197
00:12:55,900 --> 00:12:59,400
looking at with with Hawkins is
that he's not going to beat you

198
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,100
you know, five to eight yards at
a time, he's going to beat you.

199
00:13:03,300 --> 00:13:07,800
By hitting those big cashing
runs and get 20 to 30 yards or

200
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:12,400
go for the big one.
Give you a prime example man he

201
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:16,400
had a big run against Pittsburgh
things like a 70 or 75 yd

202
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:20,400
touchdown but he had less than
10 total yards from scrimmage.

203
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,800
The rest of the game in the
room, the running attack.

204
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:28,800
So he was still used some of the
passing game, but if you're able

205
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:33,600
to keep him from getting to the
second level, you can make Look

206
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:37,800
pedestrian.
But if you can't do that, he's

207
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:39,500
going to run up and down the
field.

208
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,200
Now, Brian even mention
something with Cunningham you

209
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,500
should mention wide receiver
screens but you didn't mention

210
00:13:45,500 --> 00:13:48,700
running back screens.
It's he strictly just a check

211
00:13:48,700 --> 00:13:53,500
down guy or something like that.
Maybe like, you know, up the

212
00:13:53,500 --> 00:13:56,100
seam or something, and not
really do anything because the

213
00:13:56,108 --> 00:13:58,600
way they use them primarily,
man, is they use them a lot in

214
00:13:58,608 --> 00:14:01,700
the check down game, but they
also will kind of run him on

215
00:14:01,700 --> 00:14:04,800
some wheel routes.
So I've seen him catch about two

216
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:08,800
or three of those 20 yards,
downfield, 30 yards downfield,

217
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:14,900
one of them actually I think it
was Notre Dame was an easy

218
00:14:14,900 --> 00:14:19,100
touchdown that kind of came
actually through short and he

219
00:14:19,100 --> 00:14:21,400
kind of had to fall forward on
it and by the time you reach the

220
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:23,200
ball out, he was right at the
1-yard line.

221
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:27,000
So it could have been a
touchdown for him there but

222
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:31,100
wasn't because of the throw.
So got to keep an eye on him

223
00:14:31,100 --> 00:14:33,300
when he leaves the backfield as
well because he can still I'll

224
00:14:33,308 --> 00:14:35,200
bite you, especially on those
wheel routes.

225
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,900
Most of the check down stuff.
They're getting the ball to him

226
00:14:38,900 --> 00:14:43,700
and space either.
A quick swing pass or a true

227
00:14:43,700 --> 00:14:46,300
check down if the primary
target, isn't there?

228
00:14:46,300 --> 00:14:49,200
So still got to tackle him in
those instances because he liked

229
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,200
again, if he does get to the
second level or into some wide

230
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:53,800
open spaces there, he can hurt
you.

231
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,300
Got it, Brian.
Alright, let's turn.

232
00:14:58,300 --> 00:15:00,300
Let's turn away from the
three-headed monster and kind of

233
00:15:00,300 --> 00:15:02,400
look at some other pieces that
are offense.

234
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:05,000
Now overall their total offense,
you're getting four hundred

235
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,700
sixteen yards a game which is
good for 43rd and Country.

236
00:15:07,700 --> 00:15:14,100
So my terrible and they're
pretty balanced on offense.

237
00:15:14,100 --> 00:15:16,900
We're really neither The Passion
of the rubbish, really exploded

238
00:15:16,900 --> 00:15:21,500
up into the top 20 where team
like you know, Wake Forest

239
00:15:21,500 --> 00:15:25,900
really their running game is
what carries He's them now

240
00:15:26,500 --> 00:15:29,700
they're very efficient in the
Red Zone, converting 95% of

241
00:15:29,700 --> 00:15:37,200
their chances and you know, 15
of their 22 touchdowns.

242
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:40,900
I scored have come in the red
zone so they get down there

243
00:15:40,900 --> 00:15:43,800
majority of time.
They're scoring touchdowns.

244
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:48,500
Now this team when you lose
book, in tackles one who is an

245
00:15:48,500 --> 00:15:53,300
absolute beast, from Highland
Springs, In McHale pectin,

246
00:15:54,300 --> 00:15:56,400
you're going to give up sex and
they are, they're giving up

247
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:59,400
about two and a half, two and a
half sacks per game 63rd in the

248
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:01,900
country.
So in the bottom half, they also

249
00:16:01,900 --> 00:16:05,100
give up around nine tackles for
loss of game as well.

250
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:10,000
So there is you just mentioned
with Hawkins about.

251
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:11,700
He's not really going to grow
around you.

252
00:16:11,700 --> 00:16:13,700
So if you can get them in the
backfield and get him down,

253
00:16:13,700 --> 00:16:15,600
you're putting them behind the
chains.

254
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,500
But again, they like the chunk
plays.

255
00:16:18,500 --> 00:16:24,300
So getting them behind the
chains and Obviously, you know,

256
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,900
keeping them behind the change
is going to be super important

257
00:16:26,900 --> 00:16:31,200
for the Hokies but you know, you
know, wide receiver you

258
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:33,700
mentioned.
We got to to, you know, best

259
00:16:33,700 --> 00:16:35,900
Fitzpatrick Branson's, very
good.

260
00:16:35,900 --> 00:16:39,100
Compliments to to not putting up
the numbers he are, but not bad

261
00:16:39,100 --> 00:16:42,800
receivers at all.
But one guy that we me, and you

262
00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,000
kind of discussed and you
brought them to the light was

263
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,200
Marshawn.
Ford number 83, six-foot-two

264
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:53,700
240-pound tight in half back.
Unranked Hometown kid playing

265
00:16:53,700 --> 00:16:57,800
form so far this year, 18
receptions, 189 yards and four

266
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:02,000
touchdowns.
So Brian, what only are you

267
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:04,500
seeing from him?
But what else are you seeing?

268
00:17:04,500 --> 00:17:07,400
Like from their offensive line
and this team in general with

269
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,400
the other parts of the offense
that aren't part of the

270
00:17:09,408 --> 00:17:13,800
three-headed monster?
So yeah the big thing like I

271
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,500
said we highlighted Marshawn
forward and he's kind of a kind

272
00:17:16,500 --> 00:17:19,800
of a do-it-all HVAC he's usually
going to be an HVAC instead of

273
00:17:20,099 --> 00:17:23,500
true in line tight in they like
to do stuff with him out of the

274
00:17:23,508 --> 00:17:27,300
back field especially in the
goal line area.

275
00:17:27,300 --> 00:17:30,900
So we talked about their Red
Zone chances there he does a

276
00:17:30,908 --> 00:17:33,600
great job blocking the Red Zone
but he also does a great job

277
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,600
kind of getting out of the
backfield going in motion and

278
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,200
just getting open for those
touchdowns.

279
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,700
He said I think two or three,
two or three of those those

280
00:17:41,700 --> 00:17:44,700
touchdowns A come in the Red
Zone, he had another long one.

281
00:17:44,700 --> 00:17:48,900
I think that he took the house,
I believe it was against Florida

282
00:17:48,900 --> 00:17:53,400
State.
Or one that I believe I have

283
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:55,200
almost scored on that one.
I can't remember if that was the

284
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,200
one that got got moved back to
the 1-yard line or not.

285
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,600
But he's a dynamic player as
well, but their offensive line

286
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,800
is probably the weakest part of
their off to you mention losing

287
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,600
two bookends.
And you can definitely tell it,

288
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,300
especially in the past game,
Cunningham is taking a lot of

289
00:18:09,300 --> 00:18:13,400
shots this year.
The again I noted earlier he got

290
00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:16,400
hit a lot against Pitt.
That hit a pretty good amount

291
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:20,800
against Notre Dame, got hit
probably more than he should.

292
00:18:20,900 --> 00:18:23,500
Have considering how well they
were moving the football against

293
00:18:23,500 --> 00:18:26,400
Florida State.
So, you know, he's definitely a

294
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,200
guy that's going to take a hit
and I think this offensive line

295
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,900
is kind of more finesse than
power.

296
00:18:32,900 --> 00:18:37,200
That's why you see some of those
plays that Hawkins is running,

297
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,900
either get thrown for kind of
negative yardage or bust out for

298
00:18:40,900 --> 00:18:44,100
the big one if they're able to
get on their blocks and stay on

299
00:18:44,100 --> 00:18:47,000
their blocks.
They end up doing pretty well,

300
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,800
but if they don't stay on the
blocks, then a lot of times, ha

301
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,200
Let's pull down for no gain or
loss of a couple yards.

302
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:58,800
So it'll be interesting to see
how we attack that offense

303
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,700
offensive line and kind of make
them think more than they need

304
00:19:02,700 --> 00:19:03,600
to.
I think that's what we're going

305
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:07,500
to need to do is confuse them a
little bit and try to take

306
00:19:07,500 --> 00:19:12,000
advantage of the fact that they
aren't kind of the road graders.

307
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,900
They're more fit up and see what
happens.

308
00:19:14,900 --> 00:19:18,200
Type offensive line.
So hopefully we do well with it.

309
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,800
All right, let me ask his Brawn
to prom.

310
00:19:20,900 --> 00:19:26,800
Question, if we slow down on
Cunningham, 22 and Hawkins.

311
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,900
Can we win this game and how do
we slow them?

312
00:19:30,900 --> 00:19:38,200
Now, how do we attack this team?
You know what I would do to slow

313
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,800
down Cunningham in the running
game is I would probably let a

314
00:19:40,808 --> 00:19:44,900
guy like Tisdale spy Cunningham
pretty much the whole game,

315
00:19:44,900 --> 00:19:47,800
especially on obvious passing
situations.

316
00:19:48,700 --> 00:19:52,200
You don't want the quarterback
to beat you with this legs

317
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,700
especially when he's dropping
back in the pocket.

318
00:19:54,700 --> 00:19:58,100
So if he tries to escape the
pocket, I'd like to have a guy

319
00:19:58,100 --> 00:20:02,900
that's athletic like Tisdale but
also a good tackler to be able

320
00:20:02,900 --> 00:20:07,900
to track him and bring him to
the Now, the second thing is, I

321
00:20:07,900 --> 00:20:12,600
mean, don't let 22 at will be
Tuesday, make him work

322
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:17,900
underneath, make him earn the
yards, don't give him 30, 40

323
00:20:17,900 --> 00:20:21,300
yard games in the air, make him
have to get them either in the

324
00:20:21,300 --> 00:20:26,600
screen game or some of those
hitches or outs or things like

325
00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:27,800
that.
They like to throw in the

326
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:32,400
intermediate game and make them
have to catch the ball, secure

327
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:36,300
the ball, make honey, I'm after
every accurate ball and not give

328
00:20:36,300 --> 00:20:37,900
him.
Those sheep Big Shots down the

329
00:20:37,900 --> 00:20:39,600
field.
How about him?

330
00:20:39,700 --> 00:20:42,300
They're not all the guys.
I think all three of them are

331
00:20:42,300 --> 00:20:47,100
like 59.
I think 22 you like 170 Hawkins

332
00:20:47,100 --> 00:20:58,200
is like 185 or 185 190 at all.
Yeah and that's the big thing is

333
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:02,100
that I think if you can make
them punish them a little bit,

334
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,600
make them pay for it.
I've seen Hawkins put the ball

335
00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,100
on the ground and several times.
So there's going to be some

336
00:21:08,100 --> 00:21:12,400
opportunities there.
You kind of get him in a In a

337
00:21:12,408 --> 00:21:16,200
jam there, you know, I've seen
guys, pull the ball out on him,

338
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,800
so that that's something that
will try to take advantage of.

339
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,900
I'm sure we've had some success
punching the ball out like we

340
00:21:21,900 --> 00:21:24,500
saw against Boston College.
Hopefully we can maybe replicate

341
00:21:24,500 --> 00:21:27,100
some of that.
I think some of the delay

342
00:21:27,100 --> 00:21:30,100
blitzes would come in handy here
that we saw early in the season

343
00:21:30,100 --> 00:21:34,000
to kind of confuse Cunningham
when he when he does drop back

344
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,800
and the most important thing we
need to do is just tackle

345
00:21:38,500 --> 00:21:41,300
tackle.
Well when we get to a position

346
00:21:41,300 --> 00:21:46,100
to make a tackle, we make the
tackle because if you don't make

347
00:21:46,100 --> 00:21:49,100
a tackle in these guys have area
to work that's going to be

348
00:21:49,100 --> 00:21:52,800
problematic.
Yeah, Brian, you talk about

349
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:56,400
tackling the last few things out
here, is third down wise.

350
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,800
They're converting. 40% of their
third Downs.

351
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,600
They're converting 60% of their
third down of their fourth

352
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:02,700
Downs.
Excuse me.

353
00:22:03,300 --> 00:22:07,000
And, you know, the problems
we've had it has not been

354
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,200
consistent, but it's
sporadically that weight force.

355
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,000
It was that drive?
It was just like, we could never

356
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,200
stop them.
And when you see a team that's

357
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:20,100
converting, you know, 40 and 60.
It's like, is this another game

358
00:22:20,100 --> 00:22:22,900
where their third and three,
they get it.

359
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,900
Third and six, we stop them.
One yard short, but they the

360
00:22:26,900 --> 00:22:29,900
risk on Fourth and they push it.
I think I could be a big issue

361
00:22:29,900 --> 00:22:34,400
for us now.
I did see one thing you talked

362
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,300
about getting stripped out,
we've mentioned the

363
00:22:36,300 --> 00:22:39,500
interceptions.
They have 12 turnovers so far,

364
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:44,200
so that could be good for us,
right?

365
00:22:45,300 --> 00:22:46,800
Yes.
I mean, I think we definitely

366
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,900
need to turn them if you're not
turning them over at least

367
00:22:48,900 --> 00:22:53,100
probably two times in this game.
I don't feel very good.

368
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:58,200
All right, so that that now
that's my son.

369
00:23:00,100 --> 00:23:04,100
The other piece is that we look
at ourselves last week with the

370
00:23:04,100 --> 00:23:08,000
highest amount of penalties and
penalty yards in a Virginia Tech

371
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,500
game under Justin Fuente.
They are significantly A

372
00:23:11,500 --> 00:23:15,800
undisciplined Team all the time.
They're 79th in the country with

373
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:21,200
332 penalty yards and basically
in all their ACC games at least

374
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,100
six penalties somewhere during
the Game.

375
00:23:24,100 --> 00:23:26,000
So a little bit of undisciplined
there.

376
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,400
Something you probably would
expect as a team is essentially

377
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,500
getting turned around from the
dumpster fire.

378
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:38,000
So hopefully I'm like last week,
it's them making the penalties

379
00:23:38,100 --> 00:23:40,100
and giving us.
The first downs are backing

380
00:23:40,100 --> 00:23:43,500
themselves up and putting
themselves in bad situations on

381
00:23:43,500 --> 00:23:48,300
both sides of the ball.
Yes, I've seen them scenes of

382
00:23:48,300 --> 00:23:54,400
holding some face mask.
Couple P eyes.

383
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,500
I mean they'll commit kind of
penalties across the board.

384
00:23:57,500 --> 00:24:02,400
It's not any one area that you
can really highlight, but they

385
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:04,800
definitely their discipline
leave something to be desired.

386
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,100
Just like we played last week,
hopefully we can stick more to

387
00:24:08,100 --> 00:24:11,000
our average and hopefully
they'll stick to theirs and I

388
00:24:11,008 --> 00:24:12,600
think we'll be okay in that
category.

389
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,600
Absolutely.
All right, well let's look to

390
00:24:15,608 --> 00:24:17,700
the defense.
Take a quick look at that.

391
00:24:18,300 --> 00:24:20,300
Just a little statistics and
data here.

392
00:24:20,300 --> 00:24:22,600
Their Total Defense is 44th in
the country.

393
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:25,800
Giving up. 383 yards.
A game at about five point seven

394
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:29,700
three per play scoring defense
sensually, given about 27 and a

395
00:24:29,700 --> 00:24:35,600
half points. 187, rushing yards
per game at four point nine one

396
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,900
per touch.
Again, you feel with what we do

397
00:24:37,900 --> 00:24:42,500
on offense, that hopefully can
Transit translate to big numbers

398
00:24:42,500 --> 00:24:45,700
in that game.
Now one interesting piece,

399
00:24:45,700 --> 00:24:47,400
Brian.
And I don't know if you saw

400
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,800
anything while you're going
through the tape, but the only

401
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,600
give up about 18 first downs,
Game.

402
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,900
It seems like on the low side
where when we talked about BC

403
00:24:56,900 --> 00:25:00,000
and couple the other teams,
those teams were more in the low

404
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:03,100
20s.
So that's kind of interesting to

405
00:25:03,100 --> 00:25:05,300
me there.
Is it, do they get them off the

406
00:25:05,300 --> 00:25:08,800
field or is it?
No, they give up three big plays

407
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:12,700
and then you're off the field
with the touchdown, okay?

408
00:25:12,700 --> 00:25:15,800
In the second apartment, getting
about two and a half sacks per

409
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:17,500
game.
Seven tackles for loss so they

410
00:25:17,500 --> 00:25:22,700
do have a way to create some
pressure you know?

411
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,000
They've only forced four,
turnovers two fumbles, two

412
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:32,900
interceptions.
So there are -8 internal

413
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:37,200
category which is probably one
reason they're two and four

414
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:40,300
right now and not at three and
three, maybe even four and two.

415
00:25:41,500 --> 00:25:44,600
And then last piece always like
to look at third down

416
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:48,400
conversions, they're giving up
45% third down conversion, which

417
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,400
translate to 72nd the country.
So not good at all Brian.

418
00:25:51,900 --> 00:25:57,100
So, Just looking at this Brine
and then take a look at what.

419
00:25:58,100 --> 00:26:01,400
You did with their skiing.
What is this team look like in?

420
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:05,300
What can we what are we looking
for on this team?

421
00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:11,200
Sure, so the big thing I'll
start with the there a base 314

422
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,900
so you not something we've
really seen to this point.

423
00:26:14,900 --> 00:26:22,200
We've seen some 33, some some 42
and some 245 but their base is

424
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,500
going to be a 34 but they do mix
front.

425
00:26:25,500 --> 00:26:28,300
So like on obvious passing Downs
They're going to run the nose

426
00:26:28,300 --> 00:26:36,000
off, run an extra DB on and got
to go with a with a 245 look on

427
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:37,700
some obvious passing Downs
there.

428
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:43,500
But when I looked at the tape
man so they're D line is not

429
00:26:43,500 --> 00:26:45,100
great.
Probably the weakest part of

430
00:26:45,100 --> 00:26:47,800
their defense.
Looks like that's an area that

431
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,100
we should be able to attack but
they have really athletic

432
00:26:50,100 --> 00:26:54,800
linebackers in their secondary
please really opportunistic and

433
00:26:54,800 --> 00:27:01,000
Zone coverage when it's Passing
down this defense is success, is

434
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,600
kind of predicated on getting
pressure on those downs and

435
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,300
they'll do it with the with kind
of a variety of kind of Blitz

436
00:27:07,300 --> 00:27:10,500
packages and they'll switch up
the coverage behind those Blitz

437
00:27:10,500 --> 00:27:13,800
packages.
So they'll Blitz and and give

438
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,300
you a man free look in which
case we would need to find the

439
00:27:16,300 --> 00:27:20,700
mismatch if they give a kind of
cover three combo coverage.

440
00:27:20,700 --> 00:27:24,400
We need to look for the check
down or the crossing route to

441
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:29,600
take advantage of some of those
linebackers and coverage and if

442
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:32,700
it's kind of a cover 3 Zone
Blitz, we just need to find the

443
00:27:32,700 --> 00:27:35,200
void.
See if they got a route in that

444
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,800
area and take advantage there.
But that's what they like to do.

445
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,700
On the passing Downs is bring
that pressure and try to make

446
00:27:42,700 --> 00:27:46,600
you make a mistake or get a
sack, whatever it may be, so,

447
00:27:47,500 --> 00:27:50,000
but they play a good show when
they're in that cover three

448
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:52,600
look.
So, we're going to again, like,

449
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,300
we, like I talked about last
week, we're going to have to

450
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:57,100
kind of take our shots
underneath that.

451
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,300
And not keep trying to press the
ball.

452
00:27:59,300 --> 00:28:03,100
Deep down the field.
Say it again.

453
00:28:05,100 --> 00:28:08,000
Stop throwing Fades.
It's okay.

454
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,700
Occasionally, it's not okay.
Every time we get in third and

455
00:28:10,700 --> 00:28:17,500
long so I'd like to, you know,
hopefully see us utilize some of

456
00:28:17,508 --> 00:28:21,500
the quick passing game and, you
know, they usually play more of

457
00:28:21,508 --> 00:28:24,400
a straight cover three.
But occasionally, they'll go

458
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,500
into like a quarter quarter half
look and like I said, And when

459
00:28:27,500 --> 00:28:31,200
they sometimes go on this
blitzes it'll be kind of a man

460
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:32,900
free look, so a single high
safety.

461
00:28:34,900 --> 00:28:36,800
All right, Brian.
Brian you mentioned the two

462
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,500
athletic linebackers really
stood out to you.

463
00:28:39,500 --> 00:28:44,000
And you know that's CJ, Avery
the 5-11 230-pound inside

464
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,500
linebacker who was a composite
four-star, coming out of

465
00:28:46,508 --> 00:28:50,000
Mississippi, a top 247 player in
the country.

466
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:53,900
So far this year, 40 tackles one
interception, three tackles for

467
00:28:53,900 --> 00:28:58,500
loss, and one sack and then the
other is Monty Montgomery.

468
00:28:58,500 --> 00:29:03,500
The Juco transfer 32 tackles
seven-and-a-half tackles for

469
00:29:03,500 --> 00:29:08,000
loss for sale. tax kind of just
looking at that and in hearing

470
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:12,600
you talk about it, you know, am
I wrong in saying Avery's the

471
00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,400
backbone of the defense, but
Montgomery's that guy you kind

472
00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:19,700
of worry about That's a pretty
accurate assessment.

473
00:29:19,700 --> 00:29:23,900
Like Avery's the all-around guy.
He does a lot of things really

474
00:29:23,900 --> 00:29:27,000
well.
And Monty Montgomery is the

475
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,900
disrupter.
He's great in pursue.

476
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,600
He shoots gaps in the backfield.
He's good at Rushing the passer

477
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,800
when they Blitz led the team in
sacks last year.

478
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:39,800
So that tells you something
there but CJ Avery, I mean,

479
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:43,200
he's, he's the balance kind of
do it all guy, he tackles well,

480
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,600
he plays well in coverage,
tackles in space.

481
00:29:46,700 --> 00:29:51,200
And he's had a pic against Pitt
and returned it for some decent

482
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:54,500
yardage throws guys, for some
tackles for loss in the running

483
00:29:54,500 --> 00:29:56,600
game.
So he really does it all.

484
00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:00,700
He's the Sound Player, he's
where he needs to be while Monte

485
00:30:00,700 --> 00:30:05,100
Montgomery's more of the the
freestyler that completely

486
00:30:05,100 --> 00:30:07,300
disrupt your play if he guesses,
right?

487
00:30:10,100 --> 00:30:13,400
All right, but what are some
things like you saw against some

488
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,300
of the games that work that we
might implement?

489
00:30:18,300 --> 00:30:21,200
Yeah, so I'll say something and
you can tell me what you think

490
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:26,300
about this pit rush for over 150
yards against this defense.

491
00:30:26,900 --> 00:30:31,000
Well, that's no one fit and how
their offense works and knowing

492
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,700
they gas for 150.
That makes me feel better about

493
00:30:34,700 --> 00:30:36,200
us running the football this
week.

494
00:30:36,700 --> 00:30:44,000
Yeah, well at least put us in
the 250 just by default we

495
00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,900
should be Kind of over that to
150.

496
00:30:48,100 --> 00:31:34,300
So,
That's kind of been our bread

497
00:31:34,300 --> 00:31:36,600
and butter.
This year, Herbert should be

498
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,100
able to The edge of more
consistency, we should be able

499
00:31:39,100 --> 00:31:44,200
to use Blackshear and our wide
receivers in more, the jet

500
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,000
motion game and in some of the
outside runs whether it's the

501
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,300
sweep or some of the other items
that we kind of worked in here

502
00:31:51,300 --> 00:31:54,700
and there.
So I like that.

503
00:31:54,700 --> 00:31:57,400
And I'm hoping that we can throw
the ball well enough.

504
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:00,900
In kind of the different levels
of the defense that we need to.

505
00:32:00,900 --> 00:32:05,600
So they can't just keep throwing
a Hard Eight box out us the

506
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,200
whole game because if we can do
that, we should be able to solve

507
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:12,000
them up.
I did see that both pit and

508
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,600
Notre Dame had some success in
like the counter and screen

509
00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,200
game.
So I expect to see some of that

510
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,100
thrown out there as well.
Okay.

511
00:32:20,100 --> 00:32:27,100
They they like to get kind of
fooled by Some of the window

512
00:32:27,100 --> 00:32:30,100
dressing and motion before a
snap.

513
00:32:30,100 --> 00:32:34,700
So might be able to get them to
over-pursue or or look the wrong

514
00:32:34,700 --> 00:32:36,300
direction at the snap of the
football.

515
00:32:36,300 --> 00:32:38,500
So there might be some
opportunities there.

516
00:32:39,900 --> 00:32:44,200
Got it, Brian.
So again we're you're talking

517
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:49,300
and saying good things, but I'm
always concerned about who's at

518
00:32:49,500 --> 00:32:53,100
the controls.
So let's let's go, let's go to

519
00:32:53,100 --> 00:32:56,200
this, let's go to pivotal
players because obviously you

520
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,800
know we've got to know who we
should be looking at is hokey

521
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:04,500
fans this week and kind of
deciding how we're going to win

522
00:33:04,500 --> 00:33:08,800
this game and we landed on 11
because he literally played his

523
00:33:08,900 --> 00:33:15,100
His worst game as a hokey and in
hookers, one and hidden hookers.

524
00:33:15,100 --> 00:33:18,200
One also for the other reason,
and you would let me put him on

525
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,300
here.
But I'll let you know.

526
00:33:22,300 --> 00:33:25,000
All right, so hookers on here
because number one hooker played

527
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:28,100
a bad game last last week.
It needs to get out there redeem

528
00:33:28,100 --> 00:33:30,400
himself.
And number two is that we're

529
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,400
going to need hooker both
running.

530
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:36,300
And passing this week, we're not
going to be able to settle on

531
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,700
him, just having success in the
running game and only hitting a

532
00:33:39,700 --> 00:33:41,500
few passes.
While throwing three picks, we

533
00:33:41,500 --> 00:33:45,100
can't do that again.
We need him running the

534
00:33:45,100 --> 00:33:47,400
inverted.
V r with the Reeds would even

535
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:49,700
with the Zone reads.
We need him to actually be

536
00:33:49,700 --> 00:33:55,000
reading this situation.
Not just, it being a Jet Sweep

537
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:58,300
or an outside Zone, we need to
have him reading the play,

538
00:33:58,300 --> 00:34:01,000
whether it's place out on the
inverted beer, whether it's

539
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:05,200
backside on the Zone, read and
making plays with his legs.

540
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,500
But also throwing to those wide
receivers.

541
00:34:07,500 --> 00:34:12,100
On those quick passes outside
Crossing routes, which are going

542
00:34:12,100 --> 00:34:14,500
to be important to kind of beat
those man.

543
00:34:14,500 --> 00:34:17,600
Underneath coverages and screens
to take advantage of some of

544
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:25,900
their over Pursuit and ability
to Fall for the window dressing

545
00:34:25,900 --> 00:34:28,600
before the snap.
So he's going to be the play.

546
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,699
But what's going to be more
important?

547
00:34:30,699 --> 00:34:34,000
Is that, as you said, break or
Nelson, needs to call a much

548
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:38,600
better game than be called
against wake for hooker to have

549
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:41,400
that type of game as well.
So hopefully that they're both

550
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:46,800
in sync this week and hooker
plays well and executes, and

551
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,600
cornelison is calling a game
that doesn't Make a bad

552
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,500
situation worse.
Like you did last week?

553
00:34:53,300 --> 00:34:54,600
Absolutely.
Alright.

554
00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,900
Number two on the list.
Brian something you already

555
00:34:57,900 --> 00:35:02,800
mentioned jet sweeps.
We put Rahim Blackshear because

556
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:08,100
I will say this last week in the
Wake Forest game when the jet

557
00:35:08,100 --> 00:35:13,300
sweeps for called not deep down
inside the Red Zone they were a

558
00:35:13,300 --> 00:35:17,000
very effective play it.
They were they the only two

559
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:19,600
times they didn't go positive
when we were in shorts.

560
00:35:19,900 --> 00:35:22,600
In the end, all the others we
saw what, like a 12 and then a

561
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:27,000
10 yard gain and I think one
more like six yard game so

562
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:31,700
positive yardage.
You know, for the Hokies where

563
00:35:31,700 --> 00:35:33,100
it's, that's really great to
have.

564
00:35:33,100 --> 00:35:38,900
Because as you just pointed out,
You said, you felt a couple of

565
00:35:38,908 --> 00:35:43,100
those Jet Sweep calls last week.
They were strictly jet sweeps.

566
00:35:43,100 --> 00:35:47,800
There were no reads on it and we
made it look like a hooker was

567
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:52,200
just carrying out of fake, not
actually reading, especially on

568
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,400
the one.
Unless T I did look like he was

569
00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:58,700
reading because the one that he
gave to Blackshear inside the 10

570
00:35:59,300 --> 00:36:04,100
that just got completely ate up
for like a seven-yard loss.

571
00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:07,300
If he keeps it, he walks into
the The End Zone.

572
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,000
Oh yeah.
Got a blocker.

573
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,700
And there's only one guy that
stopped him and he's got space

574
00:36:11,700 --> 00:36:15,000
to maneuver, so we I think he
wants in there.

575
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,900
So let's see, completely misread
there but he will.

576
00:36:18,100 --> 00:36:20,500
It looked like he wasn't even
carrying out his fake strong.

577
00:36:20,500 --> 00:36:24,500
So I don't think it was a true
re but I could be wrong.

578
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,200
But that that's what I'm that's
what's in my head based on what

579
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,700
I saw there.
So for Blackshear it's going to

580
00:36:30,700 --> 00:36:34,600
be two things here man.
So I want us to start running

581
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:38,600
more, 21 Personnel.
We ran it some against weight

582
00:36:39,300 --> 00:36:41,400
especially when we had black
shirt on the field on the jet

583
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:44,300
ski.
I want more of it and I want

584
00:36:44,300 --> 00:36:48,800
more three wide receiver sets
versus some of the sets out

585
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:56,200
there with Mitchell and Gallo.
Just because I think I want to

586
00:36:56,207 --> 00:36:57,800
spread this defense out a little
bit.

587
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,200
They have two linebackers that
are very good.

588
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:02,200
I don't need more guys in the
Box.

589
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:07,200
Gumming up the running game.
So I want to see three wide

590
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:09,200
receiver sets.
I want to see 21 Personnel where

591
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:15,500
we can use Blackshear in the
slot in the weighing and maybe

592
00:37:15,500 --> 00:37:17,600
even, you know, getting a
traditional carry from the

593
00:37:17,607 --> 00:37:19,500
backfield and putting Herbert
somewhere else.

594
00:37:19,500 --> 00:37:21,900
So there's so many options that
you can do there.

595
00:37:21,900 --> 00:37:24,800
I know I've talked about it,
probably ad nauseam at this

596
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:26,100
point.
Probably listeners are getting a

597
00:37:26,107 --> 00:37:28,200
little tired of broad, so I've
done with 21 Personnel.

598
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,400
No, no, what?
No, we haven't found a

599
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:34,800
consistent third wide receiver.
Why not leave this guy on the

600
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,300
feet?
It's very true.

601
00:37:37,300 --> 00:37:40,000
And the other piece about you
talk about running 21, running

602
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:42,100
three wide sets and things like
that brine.

603
00:37:42,700 --> 00:37:46,900
Is you noticed last week and
this is something we, you didn't

604
00:37:46,900 --> 00:37:50,800
see it until a little further
into reviewing the Wake Forest

605
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:54,000
game later this week.
A lot of our sets were what two

606
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:57,700
main routes.
We were keeping six and seven to

607
00:37:57,700 --> 00:38:00,200
a, do a Max protect where it's
like, we're taking shots.

608
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,600
And you're sitting here saying,
A drove.

609
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:05,700
You crazy because you knew to
beat that team.

610
00:38:05,700 --> 00:38:08,800
We needed underneath.
We needed to build a little

611
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:12,300
pieces here and there into your
point.

612
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:14,300
They were loading the box,
right?

613
00:38:14,500 --> 00:38:20,800
Well, if we had put Tre and even
James and Rahim in some way and

614
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:24,100
you force them to what if you
still want to play in the box,

615
00:38:24,300 --> 00:38:27,900
that means you're leaving nobody
behind you in the cases where

616
00:38:27,900 --> 00:38:30,700
what we were doing with putting
gallo and Mitchell in.

617
00:38:31,700 --> 00:38:34,300
Is essentially.
Well now you can still need one

618
00:38:34,300 --> 00:38:38,100
safety out back to help with the
Deep passes.

619
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,200
So yeah.
Alright let's let's jump to

620
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:43,800
number three on the offensive
pivotal players brine.

621
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,000
You mentioned earlier we mention
them by name with Avery and

622
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,900
Montgomery the dynamic inside
linebacker Duo.

623
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,400
Who's the third most important
person in my life?

624
00:38:56,500 --> 00:38:58,300
Because I mean those are going
to be the guys that are

625
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,300
consistently throughout the
game.

626
00:39:05,300 --> 00:39:09,100
So they're going to need to have
a really good game for us to be

627
00:39:09,100 --> 00:39:13,000
able to have the big night.
We're going to need in the

628
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,500
running game to win this game,
so I look for them.

629
00:39:16,500 --> 00:39:19,600
I mean, Hoffman in particular,
he's going to be pivotal in.

630
00:39:19,900 --> 00:39:23,800
Not only neutralizing, the news,
almost Please but also some of

631
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:28,700
the handoffs in the zone where
he's going to combo with a guard

632
00:39:28,700 --> 00:39:33,200
up to the up to a linebacker.
So look for him to have a big

633
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,400
game if we're going to have some
success against this defense.

634
00:39:37,900 --> 00:39:42,000
You know we're also talking
about Nestor HUD and unless the

635
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,900
Smith needing to have some, some
big games as well, depending on

636
00:39:44,900 --> 00:39:48,900
what iteration of the offensive
line ends up out there whether

637
00:39:48,900 --> 00:39:51,800
it's too new to back at, right
tackle or whether they go.

638
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:56,400
Go back with with Nestor back at
right tackle with HUD at Right

639
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,100
Guard.
So be interesting to see if

640
00:39:59,100 --> 00:40:02,000
there's any shifts there because
you know we noted last week that

641
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,100
new to had kind of a rough game.
So I don't know if there's going

642
00:40:05,100 --> 00:40:09,000
to be more fidgeting around with
those rotations or if they're

643
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:12,200
going to stick with what they
had and just chalk it up to two

644
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:15,500
new, to still working his way
back into the swing of things.

645
00:40:16,300 --> 00:40:17,400
Absolutely.
Right.

646
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,900
I think you put we put them on
here too because of what you

647
00:40:20,900 --> 00:40:24,400
mentioned about This defense,
it's not a good defensive line.

648
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:28,500
The secondary has to take
chances to be successful if the

649
00:40:28,500 --> 00:40:31,200
interior offensive line
neutralizes Montgomery and

650
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:36,300
Avery, then it could be a very
long night for Louisville or if

651
00:40:36,300 --> 00:40:38,800
anything, they know they're
going to be in a track meet

652
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:39,900
against.
Yeah.

653
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:43,200
Let's look through the defensive
side of the ball.

654
00:40:43,500 --> 00:40:47,600
Obviously number one, we gave it
away earlier, but we'll still

655
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:50,300
maintenance, you know?
It was the first name.

656
00:40:50,300 --> 00:40:52,600
Brian mentioned about
continually Italian Allen

657
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:55,500
Tisdale.
We talked about Tisdale, the

658
00:40:55,500 --> 00:40:58,300
reason I liked his day on this
is because it's a linebacker

659
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,100
that you can use in the spiral
because of his athleticism

660
00:41:01,100 --> 00:41:04,300
versus having to take Connor or
one of the safeties out of

661
00:41:04,308 --> 00:41:07,800
coverage in the zone.
So I like that a little bit

662
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:11,100
better and it's a guy that's
kind of more in the middle of

663
00:41:11,100 --> 00:41:15,500
the defense versus kind of those
Edge guys where they like to

664
00:41:15,500 --> 00:41:18,200
attack.
So look for Tisdale to be key

665
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:22,900
there in the spiral hopefully
that comes to fruition in terms

666
00:41:22,900 --> 00:41:25,900
of what I The matchup is there
because I think you would be

667
00:41:25,900 --> 00:41:29,700
perfect to kind of neutralize
Cunningham in the quarterback

668
00:41:29,700 --> 00:41:33,300
run game.
You know, we talked about second

669
00:41:33,300 --> 00:41:38,700
here is going to be those
defensive backs man and it's

670
00:41:38,700 --> 00:41:42,400
funny when we went through this
we were both like defensive back

671
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,900
and I was like oh the corners
yeah it makes sense and you know

672
00:41:44,908 --> 00:41:48,300
like know the defensive back I'm
like the safeties.

673
00:41:48,300 --> 00:41:53,700
You're like no.
Bonds basically say everybody in

674
00:41:53,700 --> 00:41:59,900
the backend and is more here
saying, everyone's job.

675
00:41:59,900 --> 00:42:02,500
That has any deep responsibility
in this game?

676
00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:05,000
Do not let 22 at will get behind
you.

677
00:42:06,500 --> 00:42:08,600
That's what that's, that's the
primary thing.

678
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:13,100
If you if you do nothing else.
I want the second thing I want

679
00:42:13,100 --> 00:42:15,100
you to do is tackle, but the
first thing I want to do is not

680
00:42:15,100 --> 00:42:19,500
let 22 at will get behind you if
you do those two things, well

681
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:23,800
we're probably going to be okay.
At least in the passing game.

682
00:42:24,300 --> 00:42:27,700
Absolutely right.
Third one run and I think you

683
00:42:27,700 --> 00:42:29,900
probably put these on here
because we are going to be

684
00:42:29,900 --> 00:42:34,500
missing a primary starter in
Jerrod you in the first half,

685
00:42:34,700 --> 00:42:38,300
you know, with the targeting
penalty, not going to be there

686
00:42:38,300 --> 00:42:43,200
but also we're reading Mike more
of a Richmond Times saying it

687
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:46,000
looks like the Sean Crawford is
close to getting back.

688
00:42:47,500 --> 00:42:50,300
We'll also seeing that Kendricks
could get to start to putting

689
00:42:50,300 --> 00:42:55,500
some more size up front and Why
do you feel other than is it

690
00:42:55,500 --> 00:42:58,800
just is it just having Hewitt,
not there for a half?

691
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:00,700
Is that one reason you wanted to
put them in this Slaughter?

692
00:43:00,700 --> 00:43:02,100
Is there some other reason to
run?

693
00:43:02,700 --> 00:43:06,100
There's some other reasons, you
know, we've kind of thrown it

694
00:43:06,100 --> 00:43:10,500
back and forth obviously Hewitt
is our most experienced player.

695
00:43:10,500 --> 00:43:15,500
He's kind of the the juice guy
on this team and Pollard is more

696
00:43:15,500 --> 00:43:18,100
of the he's athletic, but he's
undersized.

697
00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:22,300
I'm interested to see how we get
some of these bigger deal.

698
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,200
Offensive tackles playing some
more snaps for us because we've

699
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:28,000
seen some success with with
fuga.

700
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,200
In there playing significant
snaps.

701
00:43:31,300 --> 00:43:34,700
He's had success, essentially
not getting moved out of the

702
00:43:34,707 --> 00:43:38,700
pocket of some of the gaps and
some of the smaller guys have

703
00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:46,200
I'm interested to see how
Kendricks and Crawford can hold

704
00:43:46,200 --> 00:43:49,400
up, is there more of the like
290?

705
00:43:50,300 --> 00:43:52,300
Not not quite what we're looking
for.

706
00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:55,800
Probably in this newer scheme on
the defensive side.

707
00:43:55,800 --> 00:44:00,600
But Closer than kind of our to
Frontline guys have been so far

708
00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:04,500
this season so I'm hoping for
maybe some more success with

709
00:44:04,500 --> 00:44:06,600
some of these bigger guys lining
up in there.

710
00:44:06,900 --> 00:44:08,500
Hopefully they won't get moved
off again.

711
00:44:08,500 --> 00:44:12,200
This is not, you know, a road
grader type team.

712
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,700
I'll call the the offensive line
that we played against you and

713
00:44:16,700 --> 00:44:19,700
see kind of like a finesse Power
Team.

714
00:44:19,700 --> 00:44:24,000
This is definitely more of a
straight finesse team so I'm

715
00:44:24,000 --> 00:44:25,900
hoping that we're going to,
we're going to have some success

716
00:44:25,900 --> 00:44:28,900
if it's Shooting those gaps,
getting the penetration and

717
00:44:29,300 --> 00:44:33,300
making Hawkins not be able to
get to the second level where he

718
00:44:33,300 --> 00:44:36,300
can really do some damage.
So if we, if we can have some

719
00:44:36,300 --> 00:44:37,800
success there, I feel good about
it.

720
00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:41,600
Like I said, he would not being
in there is definitely a blow

721
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:45,400
leadership wise and energy wise.
But I'm hoping that some of the

722
00:44:46,500 --> 00:44:49,200
matchups that we have might end
up being in our favor a little

723
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:53,300
bit more, having more more size
there in the interior.

724
00:44:54,700 --> 00:44:56,800
Got it wrong.
All right.

725
00:44:56,800 --> 00:44:59,400
Well let's move on to get a
prediction down here for the

726
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,000
game.
Brian, I led the last week fell

727
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,500
flat on my face so I'm going to
let you leave this week.

728
00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:07,100
All right.
Thank you.

729
00:45:07,100 --> 00:45:11,700
Thank you.
I think this is going to be at.

730
00:45:11,700 --> 00:45:13,200
I think it's going to be a tight
one.

731
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:20,700
I have faith in our offense is
going to bounce back, so I think

732
00:45:20,700 --> 00:45:23,500
we're going to play a lot better
game.

733
00:45:23,500 --> 00:45:25,900
A lot more sound football, not
make the errors.

734
00:45:26,100 --> 00:45:28,900
I mean we had a combination of
turnovers and penalties last

735
00:45:28,900 --> 00:45:30,500
week.
We haven't really seen that in a

736
00:45:30,508 --> 00:45:38,600
long time.
So give me the Hokies. 35:31.

737
00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:49,000
Let's put you down for 3531, for
jigna tech line would is 3 right

738
00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,200
now.
Rope hook, he's as a road,

739
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:59,500
favorite Brian.
First time for everything right?

740
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:07,500
Yep well I can't do it because I
can't because my face against

741
00:46:07,500 --> 00:46:11,500
the picking against a good guy,
hope I'm wrong.

742
00:46:11,500 --> 00:46:13,400
Hope I'm wrong by a lot of
points.

743
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:18,900
But what I saw last week is when
we got down in that red zone was

744
00:46:18,900 --> 00:46:22,100
atrocious and I think that's
going to bite Us in the ass this

745
00:46:22,100 --> 00:46:23,300
week.
I think we're going to move the

746
00:46:23,308 --> 00:46:25,500
ball more on them and they will
on us.

747
00:46:26,500 --> 00:46:30,200
I just think we're going to come
up short and have Brian Johnson,

748
00:46:30,200 --> 00:46:33,900
kicking field goals versus
stuffing it in the end zone

749
00:46:33,900 --> 00:46:37,400
because we're going to do some
stupid play calling inside the

750
00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:40,900
15 inside the 10 that backs us
up or slows us down.

751
00:46:42,100 --> 00:46:46,200
And I hate saying that.
I really do.

752
00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:23,200
And hopefully a joke on me
because I don't want to be

753
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:27,500
right.
But that I've got to go with

754
00:47:27,500 --> 00:47:30,900
what I'm feeling and what I'm
seeing and I want this team to

755
00:47:30,900 --> 00:47:35,000
prove it to me.
Okay okay so you got Thirty One

756
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:37,200
Thirty Thirty One Thirty
Louisville.

757
00:47:37,300 --> 00:47:38,600
Thank you.
See we're going to be and we're

758
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:40,900
going three, touchdowns three
field goals.

759
00:47:41,100 --> 00:47:43,700
Going to struggle, putting some
of those drives away.

760
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:45,800
We're going to get down there
more.

761
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,900
We are not going to convert as
many times them.

762
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:49,900
Okay?
So you think they're going to be

763
00:47:49,900 --> 00:47:51,800
four out of five?
Yep.

764
00:47:52,900 --> 00:47:56,100
Well, I don't know.
You I think they're going to get

765
00:47:56,100 --> 00:47:59,200
at least one, maybe two deep
balls.

766
00:47:59,900 --> 00:48:05,600
We saw it in Carolina.
And that's okay, but I also

767
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,800
think they're going to hit some
more and get down there.

768
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:09,600
When they get down, we're going
to convert.

769
00:48:09,900 --> 00:48:11,400
We're going to get down there a
lot more.

770
00:48:11,700 --> 00:48:14,200
We're just not going to convert
because we're going to do

771
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:16,500
something that doesn't make
sense.

772
00:48:17,700 --> 00:48:20,600
There's going to be a play where
we're sitting at the 4-yard line

773
00:48:20,700 --> 00:48:25,100
with first and goal and the
interior line has been getting

774
00:48:25,100 --> 00:48:27,600
and just wiping out there inside
linebackers and we're going to

775
00:48:27,607 --> 00:48:31,300
try like some fake tossed.
We're going to go talk short

776
00:48:31,300 --> 00:48:35,400
side or toss and we just
something that makes no sense.

777
00:48:36,500 --> 00:48:41,100
And and luckily, I will have to
keep my my mouth.

778
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:44,600
Kind of quiet.
We will be going over to the

779
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:49,600
In-laws to do a Halloween, candy
hunt in the year.

780
00:48:51,500 --> 00:48:54,300
We'll get to watch the game but
won't get the cursed loudly.

781
00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,500
All right, Braun, let's flip it,
ACC pics.

782
00:48:58,500 --> 00:49:00,600
Let's do a recap real quick last
week.

783
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:05,200
Last week you came out, the gate
firing 5 and 0 and then lost

784
00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:07,600
three straight games.
Thanks to Miami.

785
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:14,900
Thanks to Minnesota.
And I think your third eye gamer

786
00:49:14,900 --> 00:49:18,600
who it was, but five and three
hours forward and for saved late

787
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,900
by Michigan.
This week, we're going, we're

788
00:49:21,900 --> 00:49:25,200
going for in conference, three
out of conference, some pretty

789
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:28,900
good games.
Some couple we got four double

790
00:49:28,900 --> 00:49:31,900
digit lines that we have to make
a bet on this week Brahma.

791
00:49:31,900 --> 00:49:33,500
So it's gonna be really
interesting.

792
00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:36,900
Let's start with the team.
We just played there playing

793
00:49:36,900 --> 00:49:40,400
Syracuse this week staircase.
Wake Forest, wait for slain ten

794
00:49:40,400 --> 00:49:43,700
and a half points.
Brian since you are so gracious

795
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:47,200
to lead the last one.
I'm going to leave this one.

796
00:49:47,500 --> 00:49:49,700
Give me way and give me the
points.

797
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:55,100
I think Syracuse played the best
they could play last weekend.

798
00:49:55,100 --> 00:49:57,000
I think they're going to come
down a little bit.

799
00:49:57,200 --> 00:50:00,400
I think I think we force win
this game by 17 with their sound

800
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:04,000
defense, solid Run game and
effective passing game.

801
00:50:06,700 --> 00:50:11,000
I am right there with you and
there's zero recency bias

802
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:15,900
attached to this /s.
Yeah, so there's a little

803
00:50:15,900 --> 00:50:17,200
sarcasm.
There are definitely some

804
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:20,100
recently buys attached to you,
there's no way for me to really

805
00:50:20,100 --> 00:50:24,700
separate that, but I still think
wake is the better team and I

806
00:50:24,707 --> 00:50:29,600
think they're, at least a
13-point 13-point winter here.

807
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:36,800
So give me wait and then points,
Alright, the next game, the

808
00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:41,000
biggest spread of the week were
picking Boston College, Clemson

809
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:45,400
Clemson, laying 17 points less
than last week, but laying still

810
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:51,000
30 and a half points against BC.
Brian, what are you feeling on

811
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:59,400
this one?
Clemson Clemson, Clemson.

812
00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:37,100
Yeah, I think about a half where
they were never pressed, but it

813
00:51:37,100 --> 00:51:38,800
was closer than they wanted it
to be.

814
00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:43,000
So I think they come out a lot
more Focus this week, I'm going

815
00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:46,500
to take Clemson laying the 30
and a half me too.

816
00:51:46,700 --> 00:51:49,600
Well, I think also, what BC
likes to do plays into what

817
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,200
Clemson Frank, there's this
year, which is their secondary.

818
00:51:52,600 --> 00:51:55,400
So, yeah, I think your coach is
going to have a pretty rough

819
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:57,800
game.
Both of us laying the 30 and a

820
00:51:57,808 --> 00:52:00,500
half at Clemson.
All right, Brian, we have

821
00:52:00,500 --> 00:52:04,500
another big line here at Notre,
Dame.

822
00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:12,700
Notre Dame laying 20 points now.
Brian, Georgia, Tech has burned.

823
00:52:12,700 --> 00:52:17,100
You numerous times this year
numerous times of late Notre,

824
00:52:17,100 --> 00:52:26,000
Dame is also burned. the two
teams that I think the most

825
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:29,200
unpredictable, even though Notre
Dame on the top end on the

826
00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:32,500
beneficial side, in terms of
still, still winning the game

827
00:52:32,500 --> 00:52:36,900
but not convincingly and then
Georgia Tech, you know, beating

828
00:52:36,900 --> 00:52:42,300
a team like Whew.
FSU and Louisville but just

829
00:52:42,300 --> 00:52:48,000
getting smoked by a team like
Syracuse, so it doesn't make

830
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:51,800
sense.
But I do say this, I do think

831
00:52:52,500 --> 00:52:57,300
because of Notre, Dame's defense
has been its one consistent all

832
00:52:57,300 --> 00:53:00,500
year.
One consistent all year, less

833
00:53:00,500 --> 00:53:03,500
the FSU game with the new
quarterback where they hadn't

834
00:53:03,500 --> 00:53:06,200
had any tape.
They really want, given up a lot

835
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:09,500
of points.
I think they can cover this.

836
00:53:09,900 --> 00:53:14,400
I really think I see them like
running 31, you know, 31 10:35,

837
00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,700
you know, 14.
So I wasn't vote of no

838
00:53:18,700 --> 00:53:21,000
confidence in Georgia Tech's
offense.

839
00:53:22,700 --> 00:53:26,000
Notre Dame is just to sound of a
defense with the not athletes.

840
00:53:26,900 --> 00:53:30,500
You know, that's that's the
issue were George.

841
00:53:30,500 --> 00:53:34,100
You're essentially saying Notre
Dame's going to get to 28 and

842
00:53:35,600 --> 00:53:42,900
Georgia Tech.
I'm like, I'm right there with

843
00:53:42,900 --> 00:54:17,200
you, buddy.
What do you think that?

844
00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:22,400
Just seems like a low-lying.
What is UVA done anywhere?

845
00:54:23,700 --> 00:54:25,900
Anything to be impressive.
And somebody said, well, they

846
00:54:25,900 --> 00:54:32,200
kept Miami to 19 points that
game was in a monsoon and Miami

847
00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:38,100
continue to drive the ball.
Every time they touched it, The

848
00:54:38,100 --> 00:54:40,600
one thing and let's talk about
this a little bit.

849
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:43,000
What's been the one thing that's
really her tva's defense?

850
00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:47,800
Most of this season?
If you watch any other games,

851
00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:51,200
what's been different this year
that they that they couldn't

852
00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:53,000
that they were really good at
last year that they're not

853
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,000
really great at this year.
That's rough.

854
00:54:57,500 --> 00:55:04,200
I'm thinking, okay, what, what
is Miami not do?

855
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:07,500
Well, well, there, there an air
raid, there it is.

856
00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:31,800
Other than one game, you looked
pretty good to great.

857
00:55:37,900 --> 00:55:40,600
I hate both of these things, but
I'm taking you and see laying

858
00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:43,900
the seven I'm with you two.
I don't see.

859
00:55:45,300 --> 00:55:47,200
I just don't see how it's a
seven.

860
00:55:47,900 --> 00:55:51,700
And you can say, well, you know,
they did lose to Florida State.

861
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:53,500
Well.
Okay.

862
00:55:54,300 --> 00:56:00,100
But What a state least has some
athletes on the outside and

863
00:56:00,100 --> 00:56:05,500
athletic quarterback.
I mean UVA We Lay last weekend,

864
00:56:05,500 --> 00:56:07,700
they burned us because they got
that touchdown late.

865
00:56:07,700 --> 00:56:13,400
I think we were it was they got
to 12 and Miami would keep

866
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:15,100
getting down there.
Like okay here comes the score

867
00:56:15,100 --> 00:56:18,000
that we're going to get back to
over 12 and a half and they did.

868
00:56:19,500 --> 00:56:22,200
UVA.
I don't think UNC has beat both

869
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:26,200
programs like it in the state
both times.

870
00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:29,900
I think they will this year lay
the sudden points.

871
00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:34,000
And and just try to figure out
why it is that low.

872
00:56:34,700 --> 00:56:36,600
All right, Brian, let's go out
of conference.

873
00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:42,400
Let's head over to the state of
Texas versus Oklahoma State.

874
00:56:45,300 --> 00:56:47,700
Oklahoma state is only lying,
three and a half.

875
00:56:48,700 --> 00:56:51,400
We got the hook last week, the
hook got us.

876
00:56:51,900 --> 00:56:55,000
They won that game by 3.
I believe Iowa, state scored a

877
00:56:55,008 --> 00:56:58,300
late, something to get it back
with them.

878
00:56:58,300 --> 00:57:00,300
And I'm going to go back and
look up that because, you know,

879
00:57:00,300 --> 00:57:08,100
I was doing stuff during that
game will primarily I was over

880
00:57:08,100 --> 00:57:10,500
my neighbor's yard during that
game last week.

881
00:57:10,500 --> 00:57:13,100
What am I talking about?
But let me look here.

882
00:57:13,900 --> 00:57:16,500
Yes, Iowa.
With 49 seconds, left scored a

883
00:57:16,508 --> 00:57:20,200
touchdown to beat this friend.
Be the bad B&B.

884
00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,400
I will state has a good defense,
right?

885
00:57:24,400 --> 00:57:26,000
We agree Matt Campbell pretty
good.

886
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:29,900
Defense has Texas.
Anybody this year.

887
00:57:31,300 --> 00:57:39,500
No, the they stop Baylor and
yeah, Baylor's covid riddled the

888
00:57:39,500 --> 00:57:41,500
other games that Texas has
played.

889
00:57:41,500 --> 00:57:45,800
They gave up 53 to Oklahoma,
they gave up 33 to TCU.

890
00:57:45,800 --> 00:57:53,000
They gave up 56.
To Texas Tech second.

891
00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:54,700
Wait a second, still scoring on
them.

892
00:58:00,100 --> 00:58:03,900
I think they take the Longhorns
to the shed.

893
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:07,900
Maybe this could be it for
Herman.

894
00:58:08,500 --> 00:58:10,400
This could be the game that if
he loses.

895
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:13,000
I don't think they fire them
until the end of the year

896
00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:16,300
because of the money situations,
but I think Oklahoma State here.

897
00:58:18,600 --> 00:58:21,500
We are agreeing a lot here,
buddy, and I'm okay with that

898
00:58:21,500 --> 00:58:23,600
because it's better than me,
right?

899
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:34,800
Then be interesting for the last
couple weeks, but that's right.

900
00:58:35,100 --> 00:58:42,900
You know, I'm right there with
you, that is awful.

901
00:58:46,300 --> 00:58:49,000
I just don't think Texas has
enough on offense to keep up

902
00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:52,100
with what a few States going to
do to that defense.

903
00:58:52,100 --> 00:58:56,100
So yeah, I'll take Okie State.
Lay the three and a half, man.

904
00:58:57,500 --> 00:58:59,100
All right.
I think it's probably closer

905
00:58:59,100 --> 00:59:01,200
than the experts.
Think, some people that are

906
00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:06,700
talking about this game, but I
think it's like a touchdown know

907
00:59:06,700 --> 00:59:09,400
that I've found you both teams
break 30.

908
00:59:10,900 --> 00:59:17,300
Yeah, I'd say like 35 42
somewhere in that range.

909
00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:22,100
I'm trying to see some here and
give me a second it's a for it's

910
00:59:22,100 --> 00:59:27,000
a four pm game.
So won't be seeing that one or

911
00:59:27,000 --> 00:59:29,300
maybe we'll be seeing that one
alone watching the hope.

912
00:59:29,300 --> 00:59:31,800
He's alright let's go to SEC
country next.

913
00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:36,400
Brian Auburn LSU LSU Lane three
points.

914
00:59:39,500 --> 00:59:45,200
What do you think?
Brian this one's tough and

915
00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:49,800
neither team has really been
great this year relative to kind

916
00:59:49,800 --> 00:59:52,800
of what people were kind of
putting on them to start the

917
00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:55,300
season.
I think we had a lot of

918
00:59:55,308 --> 00:59:57,500
questions about LSU.
I think Auburn's, probably

919
00:59:57,500 --> 00:59:59,900
underperformed relative to what
we kind of thought we were going

920
00:59:59,900 --> 01:00:06,000
to be especially after week one.
I'm going to take actually

921
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:07,700
Auburn to win this one out,
right?

922
01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:15,200
Ryan takes Auburn.
Not so fast.

923
01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:18,000
You are out of your mind on
this.

924
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:24,400
Have you not seen how many games
that Auburn has won because of

925
01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:31,700
the officiating?
I have you have, do you think

926
01:00:31,700 --> 01:00:37,700
that they want a team ranked by
the name of LSU in a few weeks

927
01:00:37,700 --> 01:00:44,300
when LSU goes and plays?
Alabama, they certainly would

928
01:00:44,300 --> 01:00:46,600
prefer that.
Yes, yes, they would.

929
01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:50,100
And I don't care if this is on
the planes or not, unless you

930
01:00:50,100 --> 01:00:54,200
scored 52 last week against a
better defensive team in South

931
01:00:54,200 --> 01:00:56,900
Carolina, this Is my legal
limit.

932
01:00:56,900 --> 01:01:01,900
That right here.
I see LSU winning this one, at

933
01:01:01,900 --> 01:01:05,000
least by 17.
Wow,

934
01:01:26,100 --> 01:01:30,100
Can score points on LSU.
So kind of all bets are off.

935
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:34,700
It is, but that offense down at
Auburn hasn't done too, too

936
01:01:34,700 --> 01:01:37,500
much.
So, do you say Auburn wins out,

937
01:01:37,500 --> 01:01:39,100
right?
I see, LSU wins.

938
01:01:39,100 --> 01:01:42,300
Big covers.
All right, let's get the big

939
01:01:42,300 --> 01:01:44,000
thing country.
Next, fine for really, what is

940
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:48,200
the game of the week Penn State?
Ohio State in Happy Valley,

941
01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:53,200
which whether you love Penn
State, hate Penn State.

942
01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:58,500
Love Ohio, State hate principal
Truth regardless regardless

943
01:01:58,500 --> 01:02:02,500
whether you love them or hate
them, this game usually Penn

944
01:02:02,500 --> 01:02:06,100
State would be the whiteout
thing which is it cool ass

945
01:02:06,100 --> 01:02:10,200
tradition in again covid this
year?

946
01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:12,800
That's the stuff we're missing.
That's true.

947
01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:18,000
Are you going to get back to?
Because as much as we dislike

948
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:22,500
both programs, if somebody said
we got tickets, you guys can go

949
01:02:22,500 --> 01:02:26,800
to both of these stadiums and
we'd look into say, well, what's

950
01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:28,600
Virginia Tech's game?
One of they playing does it

951
01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:31,500
over?
No, we go in a heartbeat.

952
01:02:32,200 --> 01:02:37,000
So for this one, Bryan, Ohio
State Road.

953
01:02:38,300 --> 01:02:42,100
Favorite.
Usually, he rode favorite.

954
01:02:42,100 --> 01:02:45,600
You think what?
Field goal maybe touchdown.

955
01:02:46,500 --> 01:02:53,800
Yeah, eleven and a half.
That is so many points.

956
01:02:54,500 --> 01:03:00,900
That is because of that and how
Penn State likely will play this

957
01:03:00,900 --> 01:03:03,100
game.
I think Penn State can keep it

958
01:03:03,107 --> 01:03:04,700
close enough.
I think Ohio State's going to

959
01:03:04,700 --> 01:03:09,000
win probably by either Polly,
I'd say by ten points.

960
01:03:09,700 --> 01:03:12,700
So I'm going to be cutting it
close, but I think Penn State

961
01:03:12,700 --> 01:03:18,800
stays with them, you know, last
week we saw during that Ohio

962
01:03:18,800 --> 01:03:23,900
State Nebraska game, the pieces.
I saw a lot of targeting

963
01:03:23,900 --> 01:03:26,400
penalties on Nebraska getting
rid of some of their better

964
01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:30,600
players on the back end.
I think that's not cleaned up,

965
01:03:30,600 --> 01:03:32,300
but I just think just kind of
game.

966
01:03:32,300 --> 01:03:33,800
They swallow the whistles a
little bit more.

967
01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:35,600
Give me Penn State late, eleven
and a half.

968
01:03:37,300 --> 01:03:46,000
Okay, okay, I'm right there with
you, man.

969
01:03:47,100 --> 01:04:09,600
We have one disagreement.
And State plays with a chip this

970
01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:17,200
week after that, last second.
Oh, holy shit game of inches

971
01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:20,500
moment that they lost to little
last week.

972
01:04:20,900 --> 01:04:24,100
I mean, and there were some
coaching issues on there in

973
01:04:24,100 --> 01:04:26,900
terms of how it like managing
clock at the end of the game.

974
01:04:26,900 --> 01:04:30,700
And Areas where they're not
taking a knee.

975
01:04:31,300 --> 01:04:32,700
Yeah.
Yeah.

976
01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:37,800
They're so there's a lot of a
lot of problems that that led to

977
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:42,900
Indiana getting the opportunity,
which they took full advantage

978
01:04:42,900 --> 01:04:44,900
of once they did get the
opportunity there.

979
01:04:44,900 --> 01:04:49,900
So I think Penn State cleans up
those things and I think they

980
01:04:49,900 --> 01:04:52,700
keep it closed.
Think it's like somewhere

981
01:04:52,700 --> 01:04:56,500
between a six and eight point
victory for OSU, but I don't

982
01:04:56,500 --> 01:04:59,600
think it's it's Meats that 11 to
half line.

983
01:04:59,600 --> 01:05:03,800
So give me Penn State.
I'll take them 11, a half again,

984
01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:07,300
so our state.
All right, we'll look it down.

985
01:05:08,500 --> 01:05:10,300
Alright.
Alright.

986
01:05:10,300 --> 01:05:12,100
What you smoking seeing this
weekend?

987
01:05:13,300 --> 01:05:15,200
Alright.
This weekend I'm doing some

988
01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:18,200
spatchcock chicken.
Go on going.

989
01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:20,500
Just going just smoking a
spatchcock.

990
01:05:20,500 --> 01:05:21,700
Chicken.
Stir It Up.

991
01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:24,800
Probably going to do some some
fun size with it.

992
01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:30,100
Maybe some smoked baked beans to
go along on the side, but going

993
01:05:30,100 --> 01:05:31,900
to keep it more simple this
weekend.

994
01:05:34,100 --> 01:05:35,600
Nothing.
Nothing too crazy.

995
01:05:36,900 --> 01:05:38,600
I'd always loved doing
spatchcock.

996
01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:41,100
Chicken.
The cooks pretty quick, pretty

997
01:05:41,100 --> 01:05:44,700
even get some chicken so good,
with some smoked flavor in

998
01:05:44,700 --> 01:05:48,200
there.
So any foul usually, usually

999
01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:51,600
takes them over really.
Well, always does, man, although

1000
01:05:51,600 --> 01:05:55,700
he does anything breaking in the
last hour or so that we've been

1001
01:05:55,700 --> 01:06:01,500
recording.
Oh man, I don't see anything of

1002
01:06:01,500 --> 01:06:05,400
no, I think we're good.
I did see a couple people

1003
01:06:05,500 --> 01:06:09,100
including myself debating,
whether mac and cheese belongs

1004
01:06:09,100 --> 01:06:12,500
on a, on a plate.
And I'm definitely in the hell.

1005
01:06:12,500 --> 01:06:17,600
Yes, category on a plate.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1006
01:06:17,600 --> 01:06:23,200
So Yeah, that's still like, the
traditional, like soul food

1007
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:24,900
plate.
You got some fried chicken mac

1008
01:06:24,900 --> 01:06:27,800
and cheese, collard green
cornbread, and someone's like,

1009
01:06:27,800 --> 01:06:29,600
take the mac and cheese off the
plate.

1010
01:06:29,900 --> 01:06:38,500
No way.
No, no, no, there's a debate

1011
01:06:38,500 --> 01:06:45,500
about The fans Bachelor podcast.
Always put the mac and cheese on

1012
01:06:45,500 --> 01:06:48,000
the plate.
So alright.

1013
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:52,800
