00:00The big matchup on Saturday, Scotty, is going to be Texas and Michigan at the Big House

00:09Noon East Kickoff here.

00:11Let's hear from Sarkeesian, of course, huge matchup with Michigan, his Longhorns ready

00:16to go.

00:17Again, because of the new format, I like this matchup even more.

00:23Because I think this is why you come to a Texas or you go to a Michigan is to play in

00:28games like this.

00:29Our guys love this opportunity and I'm sure their players do too and I think the coaches

00:33do as well.

00:35That we get to go play in a marquee game on the road in a great environment for college

00:39football and in a couple years we get to do it here with them as well.

00:44And on the same token, if you win it, this game, it's great.

00:48If you don't, it isn't going to kill you.

00:51One thing I touched on to reference the game against Alabama a year ago, this game isn't

00:57going to define our season.

00:59If we win the game, that doesn't automatically declare us that we're going to be this great

01:04team.

01:05And if we don't win the game, that doesn't mean that the season was a failure.

01:08There's a lot of football left to be played.

01:10What I think Saturday will do for us is serve as a bit of a barometer of where we're at

01:15as a football team this fall.

01:17Listen, I think there'll be some edge for the Wolverines in the Big House that Texas

01:25is not afraid to play in front of big crowds.

01:27They do it in Austin at Memorial.

01:30They've played in playoff games.

01:32They've been in enormous spots before.

01:34So once they get over the initial hiccup of that and survive that first haymaker, they're

01:40flat out better than Michigan.

01:43Michigan has no quarterback.

01:47They don't know whether they're coming or going at quarterback.

01:49So when you don't have a good quarterback, I don't care who you are, you're going to

01:53lose to a Quinn Ewers.

01:55I'm on Texas to win this game because they got the best quarterback and the other team

01:59doesn't have a quarterback at all.

02:01And their coach doesn't have a contract either.

02:05All this stuff is amazing.

02:07The school's under a tremendous amount of pressure from the NCAA.

02:11They don't want to admit it, but they are.

02:14And they look like crap against Fresno State.

02:16At the end of the day, they barely beat them.

02:19I mean, I know it was a 21 point spread.

02:21They win by 20, but they did not look good.

02:23They scored late.

02:25Texas should go to the big house and win this game because they are flat out better.

02:31I think they're going to absolutely smash them.

02:34I think they're going to win by two plus touchdowns.

02:36That's how bad I think they're going to be in Michigan.

02:39I know big house.

02:40They're wearing blue pants.

02:41I saw all this stuff that I, I don't care.

02:44You just said it all.

02:46Texas is flat out better than them and they're not going to be bothered by some big road

02:50environment.

02:51They played in plenty of them in the past.

02:54Two plus Tuddy's, Texas beats Michigan by at the big house there.

02:58It's a seven and a half right now, 42.

03:00I think the total's light too.

03:02I know Gabe said that to you earlier.

03:03I think they'll score points in this game.

03:05And I mean, Texas will score points, lots of them.

03:09I feel like coming up here this week.
