00:00Western Michigan got hosed because...
00:03I want your take on this.
00:04I'm curious.
00:05This is like the rich get richer.
00:08This is like a tale as old as time.
00:10The big school that generates bazillions of dollars
00:15playing the home game against the directional school
00:18got the call.
00:19There's no other way to view this.
00:21The Big Ten has a secret clock somewhere.
00:25Secret clock.
00:25Who do they want to protect?
00:27Michigan?
00:28I know.
00:29The maize and blue?
00:30Of course.
00:31When they win the title three years ago?
00:33Yeah, three years ago.
00:33In the Alabama State of Michigan?
00:35They can't have them open 0-1?
00:38No.
00:38And dude, I've worked for NBC.
00:40NBC's probably got 50 Michigan games between the big network
00:44and Peacock.
00:44They are heavily invested.
00:46Nobody wants Michigan to lose to Western Michigan.
00:48Right.
00:48And it did require...
00:50The forgotten part in the hoax of all this is
00:54it did require them to then hit the Hail Mary on the next play.
00:57It's not like they were gifted.
00:59They gifted the win in that fashion.
01:01Like, Western could have tipped the ball.
01:02They could have sacked the quarterback.
01:03They could have done a hundred things.
01:04How about Blitz Hail Marys?
01:05I've always screamed this.
01:06Blitz Hail Marys.
01:06They brought a little pressure on them.
01:08Four.
01:08Yeah, but sometimes you see teams rush one.
01:11Well, that's even more stupid.
01:13I feel bad for Western.
01:14Well, I feel bad for their players because their players had to watch their coach
01:20basically not say a peep afterwards because they all want that MAAC money
01:24for these bye games.
01:26Right.
01:26The coach didn't fight for the players.
01:29I mean, these players have probably been getting their asses chewed by this coach all August
01:34and they just upset Michigan at the big house.
01:37Egregious robbery of a phantom secret clock call.
01:42And the coach was like, well, you know.
01:44Right.
01:44Because you know what the coach wants?
01:46He wants a job in the Big Ten.
01:47Totally.
01:48They want the cash now.
01:49The president of Western Michigan coming out.
01:51Oh, they showed me the secret footage and it tracks.
01:53Yes.
01:54What are you trying to get?
01:55You trying to be the next dean of economics in Ann Arbor?
01:59Like, it's all just stepping stone BS.
02:02The answer is yes.
02:02They all want Big Ten jobs because they're in the MAAC right now.
02:06Now, you're right when it's the haves against the have-nots.
02:10It is a disgusting thing.
02:12It really, really was a joke.
02:13And what's interesting is now it's going to affect every other game going forward
02:19because you now have to worry about a secret clock.
02:21Right.
02:21You have to worry about the clock that you can't see that's different from the scoreboard clock
02:25and the television clock.
02:27And it's fascinating that Mike Pereira said over the weekend that in the NFL,
02:31their policy is if there's ever a discrepancy,
02:34the scoreboard clock is supreme for the express purpose of not creating this feeling of
02:41there's some kind of scam going on.
02:44Now, all that said, I kind of like Michigan in the points against Oklahoma this weekend.
02:50Like, I think there will be, like, everybody's going to be like,
02:53oh, Michigan sucks.
02:54I kind of like that.
02:55Always play on a live dog coming off a complete screwjob robbery with zeros on the clock.
03:00System play, baby.
03:01Exactly.
03:02Now, speaking of discussing things, did you happen to watch any of Auburn vs. Baylor?
03:07I did.
03:08That was a god-awful football game.
03:10Yeah.
03:10And White Bryan is the world's proudest Auburn alum, him and Brandon Fry's daughter.
03:17Bryan, do you have any defense for truly one of the worst football games I've ever watched?
03:22They won, and in the Hugh Freeze era, they lose that game.
03:25So I'll take it.
03:26Yeah, right.
03:26It's a win.
03:27Four interceptions between the two quarterbacks.
03:29Your fellow, Byron Brown, is awful.
03:33White Bryan.
03:3426 of 35 for 260 with three picks.
03:37More yards than Jackson Arnold had all of last year.
03:40Repeat that stat line for those that might have missed it.
03:4226 of 35, 259, three interceptions.
03:46Bad.
03:46Lagway, the kid on the other side for Baylor, who was at Florida before.
03:5027 of 54 for 333, two touchdowns and a pick.
03:56How many plays did Baylor run?
03:58That's 50% passing on high volume.
04:01That is disgusting.
04:03The quarterback threw 54 times.
04:05The running back, Pendergrass, had 25 carries for 88 yards.
04:10That's what, 3.1 a pop or something?
04:12When you're at three yards a pop, you're not getting 25 totes.
04:16They're going to go away from you at some point.
04:18Somewhere around carry 14, 15, 16.
04:20They're like, we're not getting anything from this guy.
04:22They kept on going to him.
04:24I have no idea how Auburn won this game.
04:27Baylor beat them in time of possession.
04:29Fewer turnovers.
04:30Had, like, almost 100 more total yards than them.
04:34Had more first downs.
04:37Maybe we need a college.
04:38More eagle, baby.
04:39Maybe we need a college preseason.
04:41Who's up for that, huh?
04:42No.
04:42Come on.
04:43Let's have extended training camps, you know?
04:45Look, these kids are going to get paid.
04:47They should be pros.
04:48Report the camp.
04:49Play some preseason games.
04:51Get your stuff together.
04:52Last night, if you stuck with it on the Florida State game with SMU.
04:57By the way, hilarious that SMU, or that Florida State lobbied hard to keep SMU out of the conference.
05:03They're like, we don't want them.
05:05Why?
05:06Because they felt like it devalued the ACC brand.
05:11That's what SMU has.
05:12Oh, big cash.
05:13Right.
05:13I mean, they just paid to join it, basically.
05:15They did.
05:16And they're like, you don't have to pay us for five years or whatever.
05:18Right, right.
05:19But Florida State was turning up their nose at SMU, joining them.
05:23And ever since they came in, they have run roughshod over Florida State.
05:27They beat them again.
05:27Mike Norvell screwed up that game about six different ways down the stretch.
05:32Timeouts.
05:33Did you like that it was basically played old-fashioned?
05:35It was played old-fashioned because a car crashed into a transformer and knocked out power.
05:40A drunk driver in Tallahassee is how I was.
05:41Or just like we call it a driver in Tallahassee.
05:45I got a new Terps hat.
05:47I don't know if you've seen it.
05:48I'm not wearing it today.
05:49It's white with the red script Terps on it.
05:52Okay.
05:53It's fresh lit.
05:55Maryland's undefeated in the time I've had this hat.
05:58Terps turned it on.
06:00Listen, Hampton may have been a little overmatched.
06:03Sure.
06:04Maryland put up 650 yards of offense.
06:06It was fun to watch.
06:0731 first downs.
06:09I'm a big fan of the young man Malik Washington.
06:12And what a cool story that I believe it's Vernon Davis' son scored in that game.
06:17Yeah.
06:18That's pretty neat.
06:19The kids now that are in college football.
06:21Gianni Davis, I believe.
06:23Yeah.
06:23You know that Notre Dame's entire wide receiver room are basically all legacy kids?
06:28They're all NFL players' sons, right?
06:31Yeah.
06:31Here is the rundown, by the way.
06:33And there's more coming.
06:34Oh, by the way.
06:35This is from one of my Notre Dame fans.
06:37Plaxico Burris' kid, Larry Fitzgerald's kid, Jermichael Finley, Packer tied in his kid.
06:42Sure.
06:43At running back, you got Bettis' kid.
06:46That's crazy.
06:46They had Urlacher's son, but he transferred.
06:50The best of them all is supposedly Bryce Young, who's the son of Bryant Young, former Niners.
06:55Niners, the tackle?
06:56Wow.
06:57I mean, we're old.
06:59I don't like feeling this old.
07:01You know, for Wisconsin, they have T.Y. Hilton's kid.
07:04Wow.
07:04And he wore a 13, and they said on the broadcast, they're like, well, he didn't really do it
07:09as a tribute to his dad.
07:10He wanted number two, but it was taken already.
07:13So three minus one, I guess?
07:15I don't know how he got to it, but he wore a 13 instead.
07:17Speaking of the number thing, did you see the Jaden Daniels doing?
07:20Yeah, dude, that sucked.
07:22If you're at LSU, if you're a senior, and I imagine a lot of people at LSU aren't there
07:28just four years.
07:29I imagine you got plenty of five and six-year college careers there.
07:32Sure.
07:32You watched him play and win a Heisman for your school.
07:35I know.
07:35Now you're booing him?
07:38Because the way it unfolded, the narrative was too easy for the average LSU mouth breather
07:44to not latch onto.
07:46Sure.
07:46Ooh, Jaden Daniels bad.
07:48LSU looked good, though, man.
07:50They look like a unit.
07:52I got an idea that I think you'll agree with.
07:54Okay.
07:54I got the answer for Dabo Swinney.
07:57He's got to go coach at a service academy.
08:00Like, if you want to stay in this path of, like, we're not doing transfers, we're recruiting
08:05kids, we're building them up over four years, go to Air Force, go to Army, go to Navy.
08:09The coach at Navy is very good, so Navy ain't looking.
08:11I don't know Air Force's situation.
08:13I don't know if the Coast Guard Academy has a football team.
08:15But, like, I can applaud Dabo for wanting to maintain what he believes is his integrity
08:21in college football.
08:23Right.
08:23College football as an entity lacks integrity.
08:26Oh, it's done now.
08:27So you got to go somewhere.
08:29Go coach at Harvard.
08:31Princeton.
08:32I'm not even doing a bit here.
08:34They don't have scholarships there.
08:35That's fine.
08:36He'll recruit the kids.
08:37I guess so, yeah.
08:39That's probably where he's headed.
08:40I like Dabo a lot.
08:41I applaud him for wanting to maintain.
08:43He's positive as well.
08:44I like Dabo, but he made a choice at that fork in the road four years ago where he said,
08:49we're not doing portal.
08:50Then he's like, we're not doing nil.
08:52And now he's just, he's stuck.
08:54He looked like a whooped dog.
08:56And I remember when they were punching.
08:59Ass kicking.
08:59They were punching heavyweight toe-to-toe with Alabama.
09:03The 800-pound gorilla in college football.
09:05Sean Watson, Trevor Lawrence.
09:06I mean, those teams were loaded.
09:07Exactly.
09:09So it's kind of sad.
09:10LSU is going to be a real problem.
09:12They have size and speed.
09:14If that defense can play like that, they got them.
09:16They got a team.
09:17And Levitt's a baller.
09:19Yeah, they're tight end and they're DB.
09:22They're 6'6 and 6'4 and they run like the wind.
09:26You know what we are.
09:28Now listen, Maryland's got a big game Saturday.
09:31Maryland's going on the road to play a real opponent in UConn.
09:33Say what you want about UConn, but it's a road trip to a power, what's the other group called?
09:38Group of five.
09:39To a group of five.
09:40Like, it's a real ballgame.
09:42You got to be ready for that.
09:43Virginia Tech is hosting Old Dominion Saturday at noon.
09:48Now these are, that's a real look-ahead spot for Tech, who looked great against VMI.
09:54Yeah, Jimmy Franklin.
09:55Good start.
09:56Do you know the VMI mascot?
09:57No.
09:58The Key Dets.
09:59Oh.
10:00I believe that's correct.
10:01That's their nickname, but what's the mascot?
10:03I think that's it.
10:04Oh, is he a Key Dets?
10:05Like, you're saying, is there a major tutty?
10:07I don't know if they have a cartoon walking the sidelines.
10:10But dude, if VT beats Old Dominion, and that's no slouch, right?
10:15Like, I think ODU has gone to Blacksburg and beaten them before, if I have that right.
10:19By the way, VMI's mascot is supposedly Moe the Kangaroo.
10:23Shout out to Moe.
10:25That's like Moe and Largo that calls us all the time.
10:28They're called the Key Dets.
10:29I knew the Key Dets.
10:30But their mascot's a kangaroo, Moe.
10:34I'm into that.
10:35That's hilarious.
10:35If anybody from VMI is listening, I will wear a Moe the Kangaroo t-shirt.
10:41Angry looking Moe at that.
10:43Zabe.
10:43By the way.
10:44Two weeks out from Maryland, Virginia Tech, with maybe some juice.
10:49Oh, it's...
10:49That game could have some juice.
10:50It's on.
10:51College Park after dark.
10:52That could be pretty interesting, man.
10:53It's on.
10:54And you know, people are saying quietly that are watching the flows of money and stuff,
10:57they're like, look out for Virginia.
10:59That Virginia's coming.
11:00Virginia has gotten out.
11:02I know.
11:02I watched them against NC State.
11:03They got the pipeline and the structure.
11:06There is a commitment from the money people down there in Charlottesville to make the program
11:11really shine.
11:12Have you seen the age of their offensive line?
11:14It's a joke.
11:15They have a 28-year-old.
11:16Five years, six years, seven years, five years, five years, six years.
11:19I think legitimately they have a 27- or 28-year-old player on their offensive line.
11:23Like, I mean, that's honestly older than Clary.
11:27Like, they have a player on their offensive line that is older than Ryan Clary.
