00:00So, again, another Mountain West team here.
00:03Hawaii, a lot of these teams playing on week one.
00:05Remind me to get to North Dakota State here, too.
00:07I do want to mention that before we go.
00:09So, is there a team, I would ask, Kevin, that needs a win more to open up the season
00:14than Stanford does against Hawaii?
00:16Because Stanford plays Miami next week.
00:22They're a huge dog in that game against Miami, if I'm not mistaken, next week, too.
00:26So, the Cardinal last year, of course, they lost to Hawaii.
00:34I think they probably have the most pressure going into this game.
00:39They're four-and-a-half or four-point favorites.
00:41Knowing that, finally, Hawaii has a quarterback back that really can put up numbers,
00:46maybe like Timmy Chang did in the past in Mike Alejandro.
00:50He had a really good season.
00:52It's also very rare in this day and age, Kevin, I would say,
00:56to have a team in a conference like Hawaii's in to bring their quarterback back
01:01for a second season.
01:02It doesn't even happen anymore.
01:04Everybody transfers.
01:05I kind of like Hawaii here tonight, and I think they're probably better
01:09than just being who they are.
01:11I think they have a chance to win.
01:14But certainly, I think Stanford has got to come up big,
01:17because if they don't, they're going to be 0-2 to start the season, Kevin.
01:20That's not where they want to be.
01:22So, that's one focus here.
01:24I have a lot of focus on all the games, but since we were going to talk about that one,
01:26let's start there.
01:27Oh, yeah.
01:27I mean, it's a good point as well.
01:30You know, that look ahead to Miami.
01:31Although, I don't know.
01:34Games at Stanford, one game under the belt.
01:36Maybe they stop it.
01:3723-and-a-half?
01:39Come on, man.
01:39Those are the games that he loses.
01:42I'm just saying.
01:42Not like that.
01:43Not like that.
01:44Nah, not that far.
01:45Not that far.
01:46That's what happened when they lost to Georgia Tech two years ago.
01:49No, I promise you.
01:50I don't think so.
01:52I don't think Miami loses that game.
01:55They might not lose to Stanford, but Mario Cristobal losing as a 20-point favorite is not a thing that
02:01has never happened before.
02:02I understand it's happened.
02:03Yes, I've seen it.
02:05Just on the Stanford-Hawaii game, it is a game that the total has really been interesting to me because
02:14of the style that Hawaii plays.
02:16But I'm going to respect the market.
02:18It's been dropping.
02:19I don't want to get super involved with it.
02:21I think Stanford are a very tough cap, right?
02:24Brand new coach, Andrew Luck trying to reimagine this program here.
02:28I'm ultimately going to pass on that one.
