Transcript

00:00:01And just like that, the table was set for the second half of the NFL season.

00:00:07My God, what a trade deadline.

00:00:09As yesterday, Kirk Cousins finds his way back to Minnesota.

00:00:13Not as cast away, but as potential conquering hero.

00:00:17Plus, we have week two of the college football playoff rankings,

00:00:20and they are just as infuriating as an absurd as you have come to expect.

00:00:24We got the Chiefs making moves as well,

00:00:27and Notre Dame wide receiver Jordan Faison is going to join us.

00:00:29It all starts now on FS1.

00:00:32That's a treat.

00:00:39Good start to the day.

00:00:41Fives are incredibly high.

00:00:52What is going on, T-Ball baby?

00:00:55I have Brandon Walker, Evo O'Connor Griffin, and Cody in the corner.

00:01:00Address me properly.

00:01:04Cody, what did you want?

00:01:05Go ahead.

00:01:06Address him properly.

00:01:08Cody?

00:01:10Cody's in the corner there.

00:01:11Moobs.

00:01:12How are we doing today, guys?

00:01:13How's our wind doing?

00:01:14I'll tell you what, don't mess with me today.

00:01:16Why, you locked in?

00:01:17Yeah.

00:01:17You got a take?

00:01:18Not today, Bobby.

00:01:19Might be one of them days.

00:01:20You ready to go?

00:01:21Might be one of them days, boys.

00:01:22One of them ones.

00:01:22Okay.

00:01:23What's your shirt?

00:01:24What's your shirt?

00:01:25This is an Orioles graphic tee.

00:01:26What's your shirt?

00:01:27It's a stack of the best sports movie VHSs of all time.

00:01:32Very appropriate.

00:01:33Yeah, so shout out me.

00:01:35Huh?

00:01:35You know whose life has been a bit of a movie this past week?

00:01:38Who?

00:01:38Kirk Cousins.

00:01:39Oh?

00:01:40Is that how you do it, Bobby?

00:01:41It was a good segue.

00:01:42Okay.

00:01:42That was pretty bad.

00:01:44Actually, I couldn't hear it because Matt was talking in my ear, but let's talk Kirk

00:01:46Cousins because, look, overall.

00:01:49I would just let Matt host the show.

00:01:50You know he wants to.

00:01:51As I would say, well, they do a great job.

00:01:53As I stand back and I look, and granted, I'm not, you know, I'm not a historian, so I'm

00:01:59sure I'm missing some context.

00:02:01But in my memory, this is one of the more active trade deadlines that we've ever seen.

00:02:05And not just in, like, volume of trades, number of trades, but in terms of all of the best

00:02:11teams went and made moves.

00:02:13And here you have Minnesota making one of the most interesting moves I've ever seen.

00:02:19Connor, this is Odysseus.

00:02:22This is Odysseus returning to Ithaca.

00:02:25Get these suitors out of here.

00:02:28You know, you tried to make it work.

00:02:30Jets is Telemachus.

00:02:32Oh, my goodness.

00:02:32Here comes Dad back to save the Viking holds right when they need him most.

00:02:37And he's going to string the bow, and then he's going to, oh, I never thought about it

00:02:40that way.

00:02:41Okay, yeah.

00:02:41I just love it in the sense that you clearly saw the Minnesota Vikings have a defense that

00:02:48is capable of winning at a high level, if not taking you very far in the playoffs and

00:02:51going to a Super Bowl.

00:02:52It's a Super Bowl defense.

00:02:53You can call it what it is.

00:02:54Okay, yeah.

00:02:54Yeah.

00:02:55Their offense is abysmal.

00:02:56And I love Carson Wentz.

00:02:58I'm a longtime Carson Wentz supporter.

00:02:59What we saw on Monday night was so dreadful, I have not seen a quarterback performance like

00:03:05that in a very long time.

00:03:06And I mean that in a very negative way.

00:03:08So, the fact that they got on the phones, made a call, got a familiar face, they're going

00:03:12to be able to plug him back in.

00:03:14And Cousins has been pretty decent this year.

00:03:16I think this is a great move.

00:03:18Yeah.

00:03:18Great move all around.

00:03:19And we'll get to see some very valuable Kirk Cousins, some Kirko chains down the stretch.

00:03:24This feels pretty do or die for Kevin O'Connell, right?

00:03:27Because if Kirk Cousins, who we have seen play at a moderate to decent level in the NFL

00:03:34this year, like you say, he's been better than people thought he was coming into the

00:03:38year.

00:03:38And he shows up to Minnesota and the offense doesn't get better.

00:03:41There's only one person to blame.

00:03:42And it's not Jay Jettis.

00:03:45Yeah, no.

00:03:46I mean, it's really this entire, we had this conversation yesterday.

00:03:51We've seen other NFL franchises let their coordinators walk, kind of wish they had them as a head

00:03:55coach, is that going on with KOC and Brian Flores right now?

00:03:59Like, this is his final stand.

00:04:02Brandon, what do you think Kevin O'Connell says to Kirk Cousins when he first sees him

00:04:06in the building again?

00:04:07Oh my God, thank you for coming back.

00:04:09I love you.

00:04:09I miss you.

00:04:10I'll never let you go again.

00:04:11Yeah.

00:04:11Does he blame Questy, do you think?

00:04:13I don't know.

00:04:14It's just a weird, it's a weird, it's a weird league.

00:04:17It's a weird life where we have seen multiple teams give up on Kirk Cousins now.

00:04:22We've seen Kirk Cousins fail at multiple teams, including the Minnesota Vikings.

00:04:26Yeah.

00:04:27And now he is a godsend and he is manna from heaven falling from the Las Vegas Raiders

00:04:32back into the open, welcoming arms of the Vikings who believe they probably never should

00:04:37have let him or Sam Darnold go in the first place.

00:04:41Or JJ McCarthy.

00:04:42And why did they let these guys go?

00:04:44Because their quarterback whisperer chose somebody else.

00:04:47I don't think he can be the quarterback whisperer anymore.

00:04:49So let's go through it.

00:04:51So Cousins was a free agent.

00:04:53How long has he been gone from the Vikings?

00:04:55So again, this is what we're getting into.

00:04:56So the year JJ got drafted, so Cousins is a free agent.

00:05:00Remember the Falcons come in with that huge offer, right?

00:05:04Like a hundred million dollars, three or four years, whatever it was.

00:05:08Okay, the Vikings are like, yeah, whatever, we don't care.

00:05:10Cousins ends up walking.

00:05:11Vikings bring in Sam Darnold, Vikings draft JJ McCarthy.

00:05:16The Falcons, after giving Cousins the contract, draft Michael Penix.

00:05:21That all implodes.

00:05:23Sam Darnold ends up doing great, but then the Vikings let Sam Darnold walk because he

00:05:28did bad in the last two games and they had drafted JJ McCarthy.

00:05:32The Falcons give up on Cousins because of Penix and because he seems old.

00:05:36But now Cousins goes out west to the desert in L.A., plays well there, and is now back

00:05:43here in Minnesota.

00:05:45You think the Raiders are in L.A.?

00:05:46Uh, Las Vegas.

00:05:48There we go.

00:05:48Uh, and, and, and now, damn, damn.

00:05:51That was tough watching the game on Sunday being like, this isn't a Battle of the Bay.

00:05:55Yeah.

00:05:55I, I, in my head, I was like, wow, yeah, cross-bay rivalry going on.

00:05:58The point being, it has been, this is a real rascal flat situation.

00:06:04Life is a highway.

00:06:05Boy, God has blessed the broken road that led me back to you.

00:06:09And, and, and here, Kirk finding his way back to Minnesota, six and two.

00:06:15I'm moving on.

00:06:15This is the classic.

00:06:17This is.

00:06:17And, and the greatest division we've ever seen.

00:06:18I'm moving on.

00:06:22Okay.

00:06:23Okay, it took me a second.

00:06:25I don't, I don't have a reference right here, T-Bob.

00:06:27I apologize.

00:06:28But, you just brought up how it's one of the greatest divisions we've ever seen.

00:06:32I have a little bit of an issue with the Bears fans that we have in this office.

00:06:37Okay, go ahead.

00:06:39Bears fans.

00:06:39Give them, Connie.

00:06:40That I've talked to about this are quaking in their boots that Kirk Cousins is coming back to the NFC

00:06:47North.

00:06:48Which, yes, you got to respect your opponent.

00:06:50He's going to be an upgrade from what they've had in Minnesota.

00:06:53But you're the Chicago, like, this is the best Bears team we've seen in decades.

00:06:58They got Caleb Williams.

00:06:59They're seven and two at the bye.

00:07:01They just went out and got Jeffrey Simmons, who you imagine is going to be causing havoc for Kirk Cousins.

00:07:06Like, why, if you're a Bears fan, are you even slightly trepidatious?

00:07:11I don't understand.

00:07:12They got daddied in the hamstring game a little bit.

00:07:15They remember Caleb Williams struggling that first half.

00:07:17There was a monsoon and everything.

00:07:18But, I mean, I'm with you, Connor.

00:07:20A lot has changed since.

00:07:22You have a Bears team that is the most controlling team in terms of dictating the engagement that we have

00:07:29in the entire NFL.

00:07:30Look at time of possession.

00:07:32Look at the fact that they turned it over four times against Tampa Bay.

00:07:35And they never even trail in the game.

00:07:37They add Jeffrey Simmons to a defense that was already statistically good.

00:07:42But winning a little bit with scheme.

00:07:44Yeah.

00:07:44Bears fans are a little.

00:07:45And they're also kind of scared of the Packers, though.

00:07:47Yeah.

00:07:49Including the Panthers, I've heard they're scared of.

00:07:51Who this hurts more is the Seahawks and the Rams.

00:07:54The Seahawks and Rams are sitting on the outside looking in.

00:07:57And they were desperate that that Vikings offense was going to sink the Vikings out of this thing.

00:08:00And the Vikings were going to slowly fall down this board.

00:08:03And now that stabilizing force of Kirk Cousins, they might not fall out of this thing.

00:08:06So now you've got to hope the Packers fall out of this thing.

00:08:08And, Brandon, what hurts the most is that the Raiders were kind of building something special.

00:08:13And they just get rid of them?

00:08:15Yeah.

00:08:16I don't know.

00:08:16There we go.

00:08:17Now we're talking.

00:08:18Mendoza.

00:08:19So, again, it's a storyline that is so fascinating.

00:08:23Yeah.

00:08:24And so odd that it could have only been created by real life and by sports and by the weird

00:08:30situations that arise as everybody's trying to outdo one another and beat one another.

00:08:35But, yeah.

00:08:36The point is, the suitors are out of here.

00:08:39He's back.

00:08:40Kirk Codicius.

00:08:41Is this Bears team?

00:08:42Like, you talk about them getting daddied in the hamstring game, right?

00:08:46Yeah.

00:08:46You're referencing to when there was a bad weather game and the Bears and Vikings played

00:08:50and the Vikings defense kind of bullied them, correct?

00:08:52Yeah.

00:08:53Is this like the first Bears team where, like, they'd almost, like, want to be playing in

00:08:56a dome in the postseason?

00:08:57Mm.

00:08:58Like, their advantage is very clearly their offense can be elite.

00:09:03Well, I would say, though, I mean, they still love to, running the ball is still the

00:09:07base of everything, right?

00:09:08So, that plays well outside.

00:09:10And Caleb Williams was so spectacular in the cold weather, kind of bear weather moments

00:09:15last year that maybe he spins it into, like, a Tom Brady game.

00:09:18Well, most of the game, it was, like, kind of iffy with him at times.

00:09:22Yeah.

00:09:22And then he came up in the big moments, like, Mr. Iceman, right?

00:09:24Yeah.

00:09:25The Bears have speed everywhere.

00:09:26They have speed at the outside.

00:09:27They have speed at the running back position.

00:09:29And I don't think you want to lock that in a dome.

00:09:31You want to have to be in the wide open spaces of outside.

00:09:33You want to have – they're like fast cars in freedom, Evo.

00:09:36You just want to be able to run.

00:09:38You just want to be able to go, thanks, Cody.

00:09:41I'm literally looking at all his songs.

00:09:45So, look, I think – so, okay, wrap it up here, Brandon.

00:09:48You did this.

00:09:49Wrap it up here, Brandon.

00:09:50What does this do for the Vikings?

00:09:53Do you think they win the North?

00:09:54Do you think this makes them a playoff team?

00:09:55Do you think this is much to do about nothing?

00:09:57I think it makes them better.

00:10:00It makes them not the most depressing watch in the history of football,

00:10:03which is what they were the other day.

00:10:05It does not make them the best team in that division.

00:10:08It does not make them the second best team in that division.

00:10:10I still think the Packers are a little bit better.

00:10:12But it keeps them competitive.

00:10:14And I think they were going to sink like a rock the way they were composed

00:10:17the other night.

00:10:18Yeah.

00:10:18I think it stops the sink and it keeps them in a playoff spot for most of the year.

00:10:23Yeah, and I think you made the best point, which is now it's like Seahawks,

00:10:27Rams, Vikings, they are going to be battling for those final wildcarts.

00:10:32You know what's interesting?

00:10:33They're bringing them in right now.

00:10:34Well, their next two were always going to be very, very, very tough.

00:10:38Yeah.

00:10:38Next two are at Packers and at – it's a –

00:10:41We can bring up – I'm sure we can bring up –

00:10:42At Packers and at 49ers, right?

00:10:44So, next two, they could be 0-2 and we could be saying this is a failure

00:10:48in a couple of weeks.

00:10:48Yeah.

00:10:49Even though they're not – like it's not a failure.

00:10:51Yeah, like with potential to still go on a run when you're looking at catching

00:10:56Falcons, Panthers.

00:10:57Well, not Panthers, excuse me, I apologize.

00:11:00But like Commanders, Jets later on.

00:11:03Again, though, let's look at the trade deadline as a whole

00:11:06because you have the 7-1 Bills making moves, 7-1 Niners.

00:11:09You've got the Jags, the Chiefs, the Broncos, the Bears, the Vikings,

00:11:12all the best teams all trying to get better.

00:11:15What did you think about the Chiefs adding Josh Downs?

00:11:18It's a move where it's like maybe Downs himself not the most exciting

00:11:22in a vacuum, but like all things, when filtered through Andy Reid

00:11:27and Patrick Mahomes, it seems to gain a little extra value.

00:11:31I like the sound of that.

00:11:32Well, I'd be kidding.

00:11:36Yeah, I'd be kidding if I said, I think this is a big needle mover.

00:11:40I think this is just kind of a roster fortification.

00:11:44So even filtered through, you don't think it's a big move?

00:11:45Yeah, no, I don't think so.

00:11:46I don't think Josh Downs is a needle mover, a game changer.

00:11:50I don't think he's – he's fine.

00:11:52This isn't going out and fixing your number one receiver situation,

00:11:55I don't think.

00:11:56No, but at the very least, they did need to make an upgrade in the room.

00:12:00This isn't going against Jeffrey Simmons or Kirk Cunningham.

00:12:02No, absolutely not.

00:12:03I mean, I don't think he's come close to sniffing 1,000 yards on a season ever.

00:12:07I think his most, in terms of touchdowns in a season,

00:12:10is like five touchdowns.

00:12:11Yeah, it's not a lot.

00:12:12Serviceable.

00:12:13He's definitely going to help things.

00:12:14And to your point, T-Bob, maybe it's just the situation was never right for him

00:12:18in Indianapolis, and then he goes to Andy Reid and the Chiefs,

00:12:21and he's able to blossom a little bit.

00:12:23But on the surface, on paper, yeah, this is nothing really special.

00:12:26Good for him.

00:12:27Yeah, great for him.

00:12:28Josh Downs thinks that it was not his fault that he wasn't good in Indy.

00:12:32We'll see, because there is no excuse once you get to Kansas City.

00:12:36All right, when it's all said and done, like we said, all of the big dogs,

00:12:41all of the contenders, they all made moves, some very extreme,

00:12:44but everybody tried to get better.

00:12:46Who do you think ended up improving the most in this trade deadline?

00:12:49The Bears.

00:12:51The Bears, when they added Jeffrey Simmons,

00:12:53they added a Caleb Williams of the defense.

00:12:56They added a difference maker of the defense.

00:12:58They were, they felt like a contender before, but it was a contender like,

00:13:01if their defense can play well enough in certain spots,

00:13:04and now I know their defense can play well enough,

00:13:06and now I know their defense can dominate,

00:13:08I know their defense can go on the road in a playoff game.

00:13:10Their offense was garbage the other night.

00:13:12After they got the 14-0 lead, it was garbage,

00:13:14and the defense took that win home for them.

00:13:17Yeah.

00:13:17All right, guys, coming up next,

00:13:19week two of the college football playoff rankings came out,

00:13:22and as we alluded to, there's a lot to talk about,

00:13:27and thus, we will next.

00:13:30Here on WFS1.

00:13:32On WFS1?

00:13:33I was going to say wake up barstool,

00:13:34and then I said FS1, it became WFS1.

00:13:38Hey, I'm Sari Velasquez.

00:13:39And I'm Specialist Lopez.

00:13:40We're both here in 237 Armored and in Poland.

00:13:45Brandon, you're not crazy.

00:13:47Dak Prescott isn't a lead quarterback.

00:13:48Whoever says otherwise is wrong.

00:13:50Let's go, Cowboys!

00:13:53Gentlemen.

00:13:54Wow.

00:13:54Amazing.

00:13:55There you go.

00:13:56Thank you for your service.

00:13:58You're welcome.

00:13:58Crazy that you have terrible opinions.

00:14:00No, I'm just kidding.

00:14:01That's fine.

00:14:02That's messed up.

00:14:03Why don't you do that?

00:14:04Yeah, I don't know.

00:14:05On veterans.

00:14:06Yeah, on veterans.

00:14:06That's terrible.

00:14:07Thank you to our veterans.

00:14:08I apologize.

00:14:10Shout out, Chap.

00:14:11Shout out, Kate.

00:14:12Shout out, Con.

00:14:12Yes.

00:14:13Shout out, Dak.

00:14:13Shout out the Cowboys, I suppose.

00:14:15Shout out, my wife.

00:14:16All right, so last night,

00:14:18we got our second version.

00:14:20Of the college football playoff rankings.

00:14:22And go ahead and throw them up on the screen, guys.

00:14:23Because there's a lot of people who imagine this

00:14:26are very upset.

00:14:28There's a lot of storylines you can point out here.

00:14:30Miami loses a very close one on the road

00:14:32without their best player.

00:14:33They tumble pretty far.

00:14:35Indiana gets jumped by a ton of teams,

00:14:36despite not even playing.

00:14:38Alabama somehow remains separate from Tennessee,

00:14:43according to the committee's own words,

00:14:45despite the fact that Tennessee dominated them head-to-head.

00:14:48I mean, USC's kind of getting screwed here.

00:14:50There's a lot.

00:14:51Brandon, what's the biggest snub,

00:14:56or who has the most righteous anger

00:14:58after seeing these most recent rankings?

00:15:00Well, I don't mind Tennessee's anger,

00:15:02because they did beat Alabama 26-10.

00:15:05I mean, the committee last week showed us

00:15:07they're in love with Alabama's wins.

00:15:08They're in love with Alabama's wins,

00:15:10and they give them credit for a Mississippi State win

00:15:12when Mississippi State still had Kamario Taylor.

00:15:13So if you saw it last week,

00:15:16and you had a week to process it,

00:15:17why would Alabama not,

00:15:19why would they not stay up there

00:15:21when they had their most impressive win

00:15:22of the season on Saturday?

00:15:23They went on the road,

00:15:24and they beat LSU in Tiger Stadium.

00:15:26So they were always going to be there.

00:15:28If I'm UCLA, of course I'm sitting there

00:15:30wondering, you know, what have I got to do?

00:15:31But also, if you're in the top four,

00:15:33if you're in the top five,

00:15:34you're good, you're fine.

00:15:35So I don't know that you got to worry about that.

00:15:39I don't know.

00:15:40I mean, Indiana, obviously,

00:15:42the headlines are they dropped five spots

00:15:44during a bye week,

00:15:45but the brutal truth of the matter is

00:15:46they shouldn't have been number four

00:15:48in the first place.

00:15:48We all said that last week.

00:15:49Why are they number four?

00:15:50They don't have any wins.

00:15:51And then this weekend,

00:15:52the eight teams they've beaten went 0-8,

00:15:55and Michigan, who they went to overtime with,

00:15:58continues to age poorly.

00:15:59Minnesota, who they went to overtime with,

00:16:01continues to age poorly.

00:16:02So, like, their resume stinks,

00:16:04and nine is way more reflective

00:16:06of their strength in 2026

00:16:08than number four was.

00:16:10Yeah, I mean, look,

00:16:11this seems to be a year

00:16:13where after all of the lobbying

00:16:16of the SEC this past season,

00:16:18Ebo talking about strength of schedule

00:16:19over everything,

00:16:20strength of schedule, strength of schedule,

00:16:22where the committee seems to be

00:16:24leaning into that,

00:16:25and in a lot of cases,

00:16:26this is just basically telling us,

00:16:29yes, this team has two losses,

00:16:31this team has three losses,

00:16:32but we know they are better

00:16:34than this team with one or zero.

00:16:36Listen, they're rewarding wins this year.

00:16:38If you got the wins,

00:16:39you get the credit,

00:16:41you get the cake,

00:16:41you go up a little bit,

00:16:42and if you don't have any wins

00:16:44over good teams,

00:16:45they don't respect you,

00:16:46and that's what they've been

00:16:47showing you the whole time.

00:16:48Yeah, I mean,

00:16:48Indiana's schedule,

00:16:49if you, like,

00:16:50look at it from an appreciation perspective,

00:16:51is not that bad.

00:16:53I mean, you had four teams

00:16:53ranked in the top 25,

00:16:55a North Texas team,

00:16:56which they're a group of five teams,

00:16:57but they're coming off

00:16:58a very good season.

00:16:59I'm actually more interested

00:17:00in, like,

00:17:01the dynamics on the fringe.

00:17:03So you have, like,

00:17:0413, 14, 15, 16, 17

00:17:06are teams that are all trending up.

00:17:09They're, like,

00:17:09surging late a little bit.

00:17:11Iowa's kind of hung around a little bit.

00:17:12Oregon is on the rebound.

00:17:14South Carolina's on the rebound.

00:17:15And then, like,

00:17:1619, 20, 21

00:17:17are teams that have kind of

00:17:19faltered a little bit

00:17:20and feel like their season

00:17:21is essentially dead.

00:17:22I think there's a chance.

00:17:2322 as well, I think, yeah.

00:17:24Yeah, there's teams.

00:17:26We might get two of those teams

00:17:27between 13 and 18

00:17:29in this playoff.

00:17:31Yeah, I can see a world

00:17:32where that happens.

00:17:32I don't know that I see

00:17:34Houston's path

00:17:34to getting up in there

00:17:35in the top 12,

00:17:36but Iowa certainly,

00:17:37Iowa certainly has a good path.

00:17:39And Oregon, my God.

00:17:40I don't know how many times

00:17:41you can bury a team.

00:17:42I just think you're going to have

00:17:43to be very cognizant

00:17:44and people don't want to,

00:17:45people want to admit that,

00:17:46like, or want to think

00:17:47that the teams at the top

00:17:48are just going to win

00:17:49their conference championship

00:17:50game, but, like,

00:17:51Wake Forest goes and beats

00:17:52Miami conference championship

00:17:53game.

00:17:53They're in the college

00:17:53football playoff.

00:17:54Sure.

00:17:55Houston makes the conference

00:17:56championship game

00:17:57and beats Utah.

00:17:57They're in the college

00:17:58football playoff.

00:17:58They have to be.

00:17:59So it's like there's,

00:18:00I think this is bid-stealer

00:18:02territory for teams

00:18:03that sneak into their

00:18:04conference championship game.

00:18:04Does Houston have a

00:18:05reasonable path to that

00:18:06conference championship game?

00:18:07I feel like everybody

00:18:08ahead of them is,

00:18:09is, is...

00:18:10They all got paths.

00:18:11Yeah.

00:18:12Iowa's interesting

00:18:13because Iowa has

00:18:14three easy games left.

00:18:15If they were to win out,

00:18:17I don't know that in a year

00:18:19where you said that wins

00:18:20are everything,

00:18:21I don't know they'd have

00:18:22a great win,

00:18:22but they'd be 10-2 in the

00:18:23Big Ten.

00:18:24I think they'd be.

00:18:25And there is no way

00:18:26that Tony Petiti in the

00:18:27Big Ten would allow a

00:18:2910-2 Big Ten team to get

00:18:31held out.

00:18:32You say that?

00:18:33A 10-2 SEC team got held

00:18:34out last year.

00:18:35It's true.

00:18:36But there were a lot of

00:18:37better candidates.

00:18:38Right.

00:18:39But no, no, but this year

00:18:40you would have to put a

00:18:41three-loss team ahead of

00:18:42them.

00:18:42But I think the, I don't

00:18:43know, it might not work

00:18:44out that way.

00:18:45We've been talking about

00:18:45three-loss teams, three-loss

00:18:46teams.

00:18:47It's kind of starting to

00:18:48sort itself out where the

00:18:49SEC might not have a

00:18:50three-loss team.

00:18:50You've got four teams up

00:18:52there that have a reasonable

00:18:52path to not be 9-3.

00:18:54Yeah.

00:18:55That's Alabama, that's

00:18:56Georgia, that's Texas,

00:18:57and that is Tennessee.

00:18:59Now, I think Tennessee will

00:19:00probably drop one of these

00:19:01late games, but still,

00:19:03there's a world where those

00:19:04four are all 10-2 or

00:19:05better.

00:19:05Can I talk about two-loss

00:19:07teams for a second here?

00:19:08Oh, my God, yes, please.

00:19:10It's 5 o'clock somewhere.

00:19:11What does two-loss Duke

00:19:14have to do to be in this

00:19:15top 25?

00:19:16Win the ACC?

00:19:17What does two-loss SMU

00:19:20have to do to be in these

00:19:21top 25 rankings?

00:19:22The ACC, the committee is

00:19:24so clearly saying, ACC,

00:19:26we just think you suck.

00:19:27No, listen.

00:19:28But that's, that's.

00:19:28No, I agree.

00:19:30That's a racer.

00:19:31Don't sit here and cry

00:19:31for SMU.

00:19:32Every time they have a

00:19:33chance, they go on the

00:19:34road to Louisville, they

00:19:34get beat.

00:19:35They go on the road to

00:19:35Syracuse and get beat.

00:19:37That's not a serious team.

00:19:38I'm not going to sit here

00:19:39and say, oh, they've got

00:19:40two losses.

00:19:41Yeah, they also have zero

00:19:42wins.

00:19:43Thumped a six-win

00:19:44Virginia Tech team last

00:19:45week.

00:19:45Oh, wow.

00:19:46I'm just saying.

00:19:47I, I, this is.

00:19:48I don't know if I'm with

00:19:49Connor in the sense that I

00:19:50think they should be a top,

00:19:51like, in the top 25.

00:19:52I mean, maybe, like, 23,

00:19:5324, 25.

00:19:54You can play Harris,

00:19:55whatever you want to put

00:19:56them on the fringe there.

00:19:58I do think there's a world.

00:19:59Listen, I'm, I'm the path

00:20:00guy.

00:20:00I, I, I think there's a

00:20:02path for both those teams.

00:20:03I mean, Duke has a game

00:20:04this weekend with Miami.

00:20:05But that, and that's the

00:20:06thing, Ebo.

00:20:07Like, Miami is facing Duke.

00:20:09Wake Forest, who thankfully

00:20:11got up a couple spots, they

00:20:12get SMU.

00:20:13Like, those should be big

00:20:15time resume builders for

00:20:17Miami and for Wake Forest

00:20:18if they were to win those

00:20:19games.

00:20:20But because you're not

00:20:21ranking Duke or SMU, well,

00:20:23then Wake Forest and Miami,

00:20:24if they were to win those

00:20:25games, they don't get the

00:20:26benefit of saying, oh, well,

00:20:27we beat a ranked team.

00:20:28Why is it on the committee

00:20:29to reward SMU so they can

00:20:31later reward Wake Forest?

00:20:32Why, why?

00:20:33That's what, that's what

00:20:33they do all the time with

00:20:35these other conferences,

00:20:36with Big Ten, with SEC.

00:20:38And again, I'm a Big Ten

00:20:39guy.

00:20:40But, but the committee

00:20:41likes to prop up these

00:20:42other teams and say, well,

00:20:43they have this ranked win,

00:20:44that ranked win, or maybe

00:20:45they had a loss, but it

00:20:46came to a ranked team, so

00:20:47it's not as bad.

00:20:48But they're not giving.

00:20:49Bring up SMU's schedule.

00:20:50The rankings.

00:20:51Give me a case they should

00:20:52be winning.

00:20:52The rankings clearly tell

00:20:54us.

00:20:54But the problem is their

00:20:55schedule's filled with ACC

00:20:56teams and we don't respect

00:20:58ACC teams.

00:20:58Go ahead.

00:20:59There are seven, three,

00:21:01there are seven, three

00:21:02lost teams in the top 25.

00:21:05Yeah, and those three

00:21:05lost teams have played,

00:21:06have played good teams.

00:21:08Because we're, we're

00:21:09basing how good they are

00:21:10on a ranking system that

00:21:12apparently is just not

00:21:13even favoring you.

00:21:14Forget the ranking system.

00:21:15Forget the ranking system.

00:21:15Make the case that's a

00:21:16good team.

00:21:18Let's see.

00:21:19Go ahead.

00:21:21They're beating teams

00:21:22California 59 to 20.

00:21:24I think you can make a

00:21:25case that they're like the

00:21:2624th or 25th best team.

00:21:28But at the same time,

00:21:29like the 24th or 25th

00:21:30best team might as well

00:21:32be like the 30th or

00:21:3335th best team.

00:21:33They have an opportunity

00:21:34the next two weeks.

00:21:35They have an opportunity

00:21:36the next two weeks.

00:21:37They win two of those

00:21:38games?

00:21:38They win those two

00:21:38games?

00:21:39It is clear though, to

00:21:40Connor's point, and I

00:21:41see where you're coming

00:21:42from, Brandon, because if

00:21:43you look at like talent,

00:21:46advanced metrics, things

00:21:47like that, yes, I agree

00:21:49with you.

00:21:49The ACC appears to be

00:21:50lagging behind the other

00:21:51conferences.

00:21:54And the rankings kind of

00:21:55reflect that, right?

00:21:56Where the SEC, they love

00:21:58the Big Ten, they still

00:21:59like, and they really

00:22:00like the Big 12 a lot

00:22:01more this year than they

00:22:03have in the past.

00:22:04And so there's only so

00:22:05many spots to go around,

00:22:06and the ACC are kind of

00:22:08the odd men out.

00:22:09Guys, y'all want this

00:22:10make-believe world of

00:22:11kumbaya where 37 teams...

00:22:12The ACC was 6-8 against

00:22:14the SEC last year.

00:22:1537 teams get into 25

00:22:17spots.

00:22:17There's 25 spots, and

00:22:18SMU, that resume does not

00:22:20belong there, and I'm not

00:22:21going to put them there

00:22:22to massage anybody's

00:22:23feelings.

00:22:24So I think I exist

00:22:25somewhere in between

00:22:26where, like, I agree with

00:22:27you that these other

00:22:28conferences are better, but

00:22:30I also don't think it's

00:22:31the disparity is so large

00:22:33as to, like, that nothing

00:22:35that SMU's done, even

00:22:36going 72, beating their

00:22:37conference peers, that

00:22:38that's, like, completely

00:22:40unimpressive to me.

00:22:41Like, I think there is

00:22:42some definite brand bias

00:22:44going on with the biggest

00:22:45conferences, but at the

00:22:47same time, ultimately,

00:22:48there's going to be no

00:22:49chance to...

00:22:49Pull the top 25 back up

00:22:49again.

00:22:50There's going to be no

00:22:51chance to...

00:22:52All right, which SEC or

00:22:54Big Ten team are you

00:22:55taking out for SMU?

00:22:58I could drop LSU or

00:23:00LSU out of there.

00:23:02I think that's the

00:23:03obvious answer there.

00:23:04Yeah, I genuinely think

00:23:05anyone 21 to 25, if you

00:23:07just blindly be like,

00:23:08that team's also, could

00:23:09easily be the 30th to

00:23:1135th best team.

00:23:12It's just kind of like how

00:23:14you want to, once you get

00:23:15down in that range, it's

00:23:15like it all kind of

00:23:16flattens out, and it's

00:23:17kind of the same.

00:23:18Fair enough.

00:23:18I will say, the one

00:23:20thing that's going to hurt

00:23:21Wake Forest and Miami is

00:23:22if they do lose these

00:23:23games, they will have

00:23:24lost to unranked teams,

00:23:25they will be penalized

00:23:26more, to Connor's point.

00:23:27But I also don't know if

00:23:29like, that's so wrong for

00:23:31them to get penalized for

00:23:32losing to these teams.

00:23:33This is all a sigh up to

00:23:34make us hate the

00:23:35committee.

00:23:35Here we go, Cody.

00:23:36College football is a

00:23:37gauntlet.

00:23:37All these teams on the

00:23:38outside looking in are

00:23:39just chasing that neon

00:23:40rainbow.

00:23:41That's right.

00:23:42Hey, Daddy, let me drive.

00:23:44Let's talk about these, uh...

00:23:47Wait, wait, wait.

00:23:47Let's acknowledge, I'm your

00:23:49daddy.

00:23:49Okay.

00:23:50Three loss teams.

00:23:51We're going to look at some

00:23:52three loss teams, guys, and

00:23:53Brandon, I want you to tell

00:23:54me, rapid fire, who's going

00:23:55to be in or out.

00:23:56Last note in the rankings,

00:23:58why is three loss Oregon

00:23:59ranked and three loss Illinois

00:24:01that beat them is not?

00:24:02Because three loss Oregon has

00:24:03really good wins.

00:24:05They beat USC at USC.

00:24:06They won at Ohio State.

00:24:08The committee is saying we

00:24:09love wins.

00:24:10Yeah.

00:24:12Okay, well, in keeping that,

00:24:13is Oregon going to get in

00:24:14then?

00:24:16Um, hmm.

00:24:23Boy, oh boy, look at that.

00:24:25Oh, my goodness.

00:24:26I mean, they're going to win

00:24:27all three.

00:24:27Are they sure?

00:24:28It would be shocking if they

00:24:29didn't win all three of these

00:24:30games.

00:24:30I'm going to tell you something,

00:24:31Brandon, if they get...

00:24:32I'm going to have a lot of

00:24:33tweets to reply to.

00:24:34You better get your bookmarks

00:24:35ready.

00:24:35If they get in.

00:24:36Woo-hoo-hoo!

00:24:37If they get in.

00:24:38Uh, I don't know.

00:24:40I still think it's pretty

00:24:41clean at the top where

00:24:43Iowa, Indiana, and UCLA

00:24:45maintain their current

00:24:46heading.

00:24:47They probably all three stay

00:24:48ahead of Oregon for those

00:24:50spots.

00:24:50Right?

00:24:51Right?

00:24:52Mm-hmm.

00:24:52Yes?

00:24:53What would Iowa have over

00:24:54Oregon at the point?

00:24:56I guess two losses.

00:24:57One less loss, yeah.

00:24:59I just, I don't know.

00:25:00I think the Big Ten's pretty

00:25:02clean at the top if the

00:25:03current heading is

00:25:04maintained.

00:25:05Okay, what about Ole Miss?

00:25:06Three losses.

00:25:06No, they're done.

00:25:07They're done.

00:25:08What about South Carolina?

00:25:09Surging here late.

00:25:10Well, so, they're

00:25:11interesting.

00:25:12Keeping around into

00:25:12form.

00:25:13If they get to 9-3, that

00:25:14will mean they would have

00:25:16beaten Georgia.

00:25:17So, they would all of a

00:25:18sudden, if they have a

00:25:20Tennessee win and a Georgia

00:25:21win and they're 9-3, I think

00:25:24you could make a real strong

00:25:25case coming down the stretch.

00:25:27Their losses all in a row

00:25:28there.

00:25:29They got killed by Alabama.

00:25:30Kentucky beat them by, you

00:25:31know, a whisker.

00:25:33They played the best

00:25:34Mississippi State team

00:25:35ever in September.

00:25:37And then, there we go.

00:25:38Probably could have won

00:25:38that game, too.

00:25:39They were up 16-0.

00:25:40Yeah, I mean, it's not

00:25:41They were up 17-0.

00:25:42It's not horseshoes or

00:25:43hand grenades, but they're

00:25:44a good football team.

00:25:45If they don't make it, they

00:25:46have nobody to blame but

00:25:47themselves.

00:25:47Shane Beamer has done just

00:25:49enough in multiple seasons

00:25:50to keep them out of the

00:25:51playoff when they play off

00:25:53good a couple times.

00:25:55What about three loss

00:25:56Ohio State do they get in?

00:25:58Who are they jumping over?

00:25:59They'd be behind Oregon,

00:26:01right?

00:26:01Oregon beat them.

00:26:02They'd be behind several

00:26:04teams.

00:26:04So, I don't, they'd be

00:26:05behind USC.

00:26:06So, no, I don't see a world

00:26:07where Ohio State's making

00:26:08the playoffs.

00:26:09And then, finally, what

00:26:09about three loss LSU?

00:26:10Oh, I also left USC out

00:26:12of that.

00:26:13They can, but this is

00:26:16contingent on them winning

00:26:18out, right?

00:26:18Yeah, you can't believe in

00:26:19them to win out, but if

00:26:20they did, they would have

00:26:21Their wins on the win

00:26:23out would be incredible

00:26:24because they would have to

00:26:25beat Texas and Tennessee

00:26:26back-to-back.

00:26:26Two top ten wins and

00:26:27back-to-back weeks.

00:26:28They would probably jump

00:26:29everybody and be the first

00:26:30nine and three teams

00:26:31sitting there and waiting

00:26:32for, all right, where's my

00:26:34playoff spot?

00:26:35That said, LSU's run into

00:26:37three ranked teams this year

00:26:38and lost all three games.

00:26:39So, I don't know that you

00:26:40can sit there and expect

00:26:42that.

00:26:43So, I mean, I kind of land

00:26:45on none of these three

00:26:48loss teams are going to make

00:26:49it.

00:26:49Again, I think there's a

00:26:50world where we've been

00:26:52talking about three loss

00:26:52teams all year long and we

00:26:54don't actually have one.

00:26:55Well, I think one of the

00:26:55two losses that may become a

00:26:57three loss could end up

00:26:58making it maybe instead of

00:26:59these two losses.

00:26:59Sure, sure, sure.

00:27:00It could be.

00:27:01You know, Tennessee has

00:27:02really good wins if they

00:27:03were to lose to LSU.

00:27:04But they would have to

00:27:05lose to LSU probably.

00:27:06Yeah.

00:27:07And LSU wouldn't be

00:27:07good.

00:27:08Yeah, it's weird.

00:27:10It's complicated.

00:27:11We'll see it play out and

00:27:12then, well, we're throwing

00:27:14this all out next year.

00:27:18Welcome back to Wake Up

00:27:19Barstool.

00:27:20In case you missed it,

00:27:20guys, last night, Jalen

00:27:22Brown back against the Celtics,

00:27:25spitting the ball, ignoring

00:27:26Jason Tatum.

00:27:30Connor, what would you like

00:27:31to say for your immature

00:27:33best boy?

00:27:34Can't be doing this.

00:27:35I'm still a Jalen Brown

00:27:36guy.

00:27:37But if you're going to do

00:27:38this, if you're going to

00:27:39talk about how it's no

00:27:40beef, just lamb chops and

00:27:41gravy and all that weird,

00:27:43weird dialogue that he was

00:27:45spewing for, I guess,

00:27:46monologue that he was

00:27:47spewing for a good chunk,

00:27:48you can't then follow it up

00:27:50with such an underwhelming

00:27:52performance last night.

00:27:53Got in foul trouble, only had

00:27:5513 points on the night.

00:27:57It was kind of a no-show in

00:27:59what was supposed to be his

00:28:00revenge game at home.

00:28:01Can't have that.

00:28:01So they go and get their

00:28:02ass kicked, and then after

00:28:03the game, he also daps up

00:28:04every single player on the

00:28:06Celtics except for Tatum?

00:28:07Yeah.

00:28:08At that point, you just got

00:28:09to cut your losses and admit

00:28:10that, yeah, you got the best

00:28:12of me today.

00:28:12I mean, there's no way to

00:28:14act unconcerned when all of

00:28:16your actions show you, show

00:28:17how clearly concerned you are.

00:28:19Yeah.

00:28:20No, it was bad.

00:28:20Yeah, there's your trouble.

00:28:21I mean, it's just, it was

00:28:23very funny for me that Jason

00:28:25Tatum got iced out by Jalen

00:28:27Brown and then immediately

00:28:28had his own personalized

00:28:30daff with LeBron James.

00:28:31Yeah, Team USA teammates.

00:28:33It's weird, just like, they

00:28:34don't like each other.

00:28:36They're trying to rebuild this

00:28:37relationship, but they're not

00:28:38ready to make nice.

00:28:40In case you missed it last

00:28:42night, number five, Michigan

00:28:43States beats number two, Duke.

00:28:45And number 15, Kansas

00:28:46throttles.

00:28:4724th ranked Kentucky.

00:28:48These both took place in

00:28:50Chicago, guys.

00:28:51College basketball, very much

00:28:53back.

00:28:54Kentucky don't got it.

00:28:55No.

00:28:56Kentucky really don't got it.

00:28:58They're a football school

00:28:58now.

00:28:59Yeah.

00:28:59I mean, they're like one of

00:29:01the largest rosters, maybe

00:29:02if not the tallest roster in

00:29:04the country, and they just

00:29:06somehow doesn't work.

00:29:07Like, they're like, they're

00:29:08built like the Monstars and

00:29:09it doesn't matter.

00:29:10They have no identity.

00:29:11It was a landslide.

00:29:13A lot of people talking

00:29:15about Michigan State not

00:29:16belonging in the Champions

00:29:17Classic anymore.

00:29:18That was two years ago.

00:29:19I'm just saying.

00:29:22It does feel like Izzo has

00:29:24maybe adapted a little bit.

00:29:26Like, he's still got, like,

00:29:27his four-year guys that, you

00:29:29know, if you stay four years

00:29:30with Izzo, you're going to

00:29:31the Final Four.

00:29:32Maybe he's adapted NIL a

00:29:33little bit and finally has a

00:29:34roster ready to make a

00:29:36championship run again.

00:29:38That defense is nasty.

00:29:40I think they definitely do have

00:29:41a good shot.

00:29:43All right.

00:29:44Speaking of having a good

00:29:44shot, let's look at the

00:29:46Heismans.

00:29:46Every time Cody opens his

00:29:47mouth, I'm just assuming he's

00:29:50throwing in an obscure lyric or

00:29:52an obscure song title from

00:29:53whatever band we've just

00:29:54Googled.

00:29:55He's over there throwing a

00:29:55perfect game.

00:29:56We shouldn't even look at him.

00:29:58All right.

00:29:59Speaking of who could win,

00:30:00who should win the Heisman?

00:30:03If you look right now, the

00:30:04odds have changed a ton

00:30:05recently.

00:30:06Obviously, the Julian

00:30:07Sayan injury had a huge

00:30:10impact.

00:30:10The Malachi Tony injury had a

00:30:12huge impact in multiple ways.

00:30:13Brandon, who's your Heisman

00:30:15favorite as you stand today?

00:30:16Oh, my God.

00:30:18I'd be the fourth one.

00:30:19The fourth Lois Sazer.

00:30:21What is that?

00:30:25What are you saying?

00:30:27Can you read?

00:30:27There's way too many letters

00:30:29in Drew Messamaker.

00:30:30That's not a.

00:30:31That's Lenore.

00:30:32That looks like a barcode.

00:30:35I think Messamaker is in a

00:30:36good spot right now as somebody

00:30:38who's got a big game this

00:30:39weekend.

00:30:40Like CJ Carr's problem.

00:30:41He's the favorite.

00:30:42What's he got left?

00:30:43He's got an SMU game.

00:30:44He doesn't have anything left

00:30:45and he doesn't have a

00:30:46conference championship game

00:30:47that half these teams or half

00:30:48these players will.

00:30:49Mensa's a good flyer right now

00:30:51because while he doesn't have

00:30:52anything left, he does have

00:30:54the conference championship

00:30:55game, which if Wake Forest

00:30:56gets there 11-1, that's

00:30:57going to be a big game on that

00:30:58Saturday.

00:30:59Connor Stockton, fine.

00:31:00Lenore Sellers might be the one

00:31:02to look at.

00:31:02He's played at a higher level

00:31:04than most of these guys over the

00:31:05last month, month and a half.

00:31:07And he's still got Georgia on

00:31:08the schedule.

00:31:09He's still got some places

00:31:09where he needs to come through

00:31:11and lead the team to a victory.

00:31:12So he might be one that could

00:31:13sneak up and steal this Heisman.

00:31:15Yeah, in that same vein,

00:31:16though, Gunnar Stockton.

00:31:18Like when you look at Gunnar

00:31:18Stockton.

00:31:19He's not going to have the

00:31:20numbers.

00:31:20They don't need him enough.

00:31:21They dominate.

00:31:22He threw 15 times at Ole Miss.

00:31:24He's got pretty good numbers,

00:31:27though.

00:31:27It's not the...

00:31:28He's got efficiency numbers,

00:31:29but he doesn't have like the

00:31:30counting numbers.

00:31:30He doesn't have crazy volume.

00:31:32Yeah.

00:31:32But is this a crazy volume type

00:31:35of year?

00:31:36I guess it could go either way,

00:31:38right?

00:31:38Can I just say something?

00:31:39I think the...

00:31:40Shout out Nate Shepard for getting

00:31:41on the graph, by the way.

00:31:42Sorry, Ebo.

00:31:43I had Ebo tell this to me

00:31:44yesterday, and I think he's

00:31:45got a point.

00:31:46Jeremiah Smith is now third.

00:31:48If you look over the last

00:31:49couple of weeks, I think he had

00:31:50eight catches for 100-something

00:31:51yards the other day.

00:31:51Yeah, the last two weeks,

00:31:52he's averaged eight catches

00:31:53in 100 yards.

00:31:54His numbers haven't gone

00:31:54anywhere, and it almost...

00:31:56I feel like if he just keeps

00:31:57that up with the bad

00:31:58quarterback play, he's going to

00:31:59circle back around and be the

00:32:00favorite again.

00:32:01I do think the new timing

00:32:03rules have maybe hurt the

00:32:04Heisman race a little bit

00:32:05over the years, because the

00:32:07clock stopping mattered a lot

00:32:09for putting up offense

00:32:10production.

00:32:11Oh, yeah.

00:32:12Like, the extra 10 to 15

00:32:13seconds every play was

00:32:15significant.

00:32:15I think maybe that's why

00:32:17you're not seeing quarterbacks

00:32:17put up like 4,000 yards and

00:32:19however many touchdowns

00:32:20anymore.

00:32:22I would lean Jeremiah Smith

00:32:24as just...

00:32:24He's the one keeping Ohio

00:32:26State float, even though

00:32:27they've lost the two games

00:32:29that they've played.

00:32:30Like, the two big ones.

00:32:32It's like, he's the only

00:32:33reason they even have life.

00:32:35So, I think you have to give

00:32:36it to him.

00:32:37If you've really been doing

00:32:38the who is best player in

00:32:40college football, and it does

00:32:41his production match, I think

00:32:42it goes to him.

00:32:43It is.

00:32:43Now, that's not necessarily

00:32:44how people vote.

00:32:45It's the weird thing, though,

00:32:47because you can't...

00:32:49If you're on a big brand

00:32:51team that underperforms, it's

00:32:54really hard to win the

00:32:55Heisman, even if, like,

00:32:57versus, like, a Drew

00:32:58Mestemaker, where he can be

00:32:59on an Oklahoma State, and

00:33:00maybe they're not as good

00:33:01as Ohio State, but they

00:33:03exceeded expectation, his

00:33:05story has more juice.

00:33:06Like, if Ohio State doesn't

00:33:08win, unfortunately, it's not

00:33:10fair, because Jeremiah Smith,

00:33:11I think, is the best player

00:33:12in college football.

00:33:13Like, if Ohio State doesn't

00:33:14win, he's not going to win.

00:33:15Brandon, pin you down.

00:33:16Choose one right now.

00:33:17Who's winning?

00:33:18Jeremiah Smith.

00:33:19Okay, there you go.

00:33:19And Ivo...

00:33:20I think you said take a flyer

00:33:22on Drew Mestemaker.

00:33:23I like that.

00:33:24Cowboy, take me away.

00:33:26Coming up next, we got

00:33:27Jordan Faison, Notre Dame

00:33:29receiver.

00:33:29Let's ask him about CJ Carr,

00:33:32the big win in South Bend last

00:33:34week, and where the Irish go

00:33:36from here.

00:33:36We got more Wake Up Barstool

00:33:37live from Chicago HQ.

00:33:40Goodbye, Earl.

00:33:48What's up, y'all?

00:33:48Welcome back to Wake Up

00:33:49Barstool here on FS1.

00:33:51It's our pleasure to be

00:33:52joined by Notre Dame wide

00:33:54receiver Jordan Faison right

00:33:55now on the program.

00:33:56Jordan, what's up, babe?

00:33:57How we doing today?

00:33:58Doing good.

00:33:58How are y'all?

00:33:59We're doing great.

00:34:00Doing great.

00:34:01Talking a little college

00:34:02football, and take us back to

00:34:06last Saturday night in South

00:34:08Bend.

00:34:09Brandon was there covering.

00:34:10He said from the start of the

00:34:12day, the setting was just

00:34:13incredible.

00:34:15What was it like?

00:34:16What were your experiences?

00:34:17Boots on the ground, and what

00:34:18last weekend felt like?

00:34:20Yeah, the atmosphere out there

00:34:21was great on campus throughout

00:34:23the entire week, and then

00:34:25obviously on game day.

00:34:26You could really feel the

00:34:27energy in the air, especially

00:34:28coming out of the stadium and

00:34:29walking onto the field.

00:34:30You could feel all the energy

00:34:31from the fans and the buildup

00:34:33for the game, so it was pretty

00:34:34awesome to be a part of.

00:34:35Jordan, what was the messaging

00:34:38from Coach Freeman and really

00:34:41the entire staff, kind of all

00:34:44year, but also all week, when

00:34:46y'all had had this game

00:34:47circled for well over a year

00:34:50now.

00:34:50Like, the entire season came

00:34:52down to this.

00:34:53How did y'all manage to kind of

00:34:54handle that process, that, and

00:34:56lock in to perform when it

00:34:59mattered most?

00:35:00Yeah.

00:35:01The biggest message for us was,

00:35:03you know, the preparation.

00:35:04We prepared very hard throughout

00:35:06the week, you know, kind of just

00:35:07focusing on ourselves, focusing

00:35:08on taking the next step and,

00:35:09you know, really reaching our

00:35:10full potential on our side of

00:35:11the ball.

00:35:12And, you know, we knew if we

00:35:13could take care of that throughout

00:35:14the week of practice, you know,

00:35:16that we would handle business on

00:35:17the field on Saturday.

00:35:18Hey, Jordan.

00:35:19Brandon Walker, the number one

00:35:20college football media

00:35:21personality in the entire world.

00:35:23Good to meet you.

00:35:25That was the first time I had

00:35:27ever been to South Bend, Indiana.

00:35:28First time I'd ever been to

00:35:29Notre Dame, and I'm kind of a

00:35:31cynic.

00:35:31But when I got there, I was

00:35:32like, oh, my God, this is

00:35:33college football heaven.

00:35:34This is beautiful.

00:35:35This is unbelievable.

00:35:37What was your first time like

00:35:38in South Bend, and did you have

00:35:39the same feeling I had?

00:35:41Yes, I did have the exact

00:35:43feeling as you.

00:35:44When I was getting recruited for

00:35:46lacrosse my junior year, I didn't

00:35:47know much about Notre Dame.

00:35:49You know, didn't really have my

00:35:51sights set on it, and then I

00:35:52took my visit out there, and

00:35:54just like you, my first visit

00:35:55was crazy.

00:35:55You know, the atmosphere, the

00:35:56feeling, the people around it,

00:35:58the people that have been there,

00:35:59just the word about it, too.

00:36:01I mean, it was just surreal

00:36:02being out there, and that

00:36:03ultimately led me to cancel the

00:36:05rest of the visits I had later

00:36:07on and committing there.

00:36:08All right, let me put you on

00:36:09the spot here.

00:36:10You are a Notre Dame player who

00:36:11won the game against Miami.

00:36:12You're also a receiver.

00:36:14You guys were winning 31-24 in

00:36:16the fourth quarter.

00:36:17Miami guy in the back of the

00:36:18end zone catches the ball, gets

00:36:20a foot down, and then he drops

00:36:21the ball at the end.

00:36:23It's not a catch.

00:36:24You're a receiver.

00:36:25You want that to be a catch when

00:36:27it's on you, or what?

00:36:28What are we thinking about

00:36:30that catch?

00:36:31You know, I'll leave that

00:36:32decision up to the refs, man.

00:36:34You know, we go out there and

00:36:35play our best.

00:36:36Whatever call they make is the

00:36:37call we're going with.

00:36:38Would you, would you, if you're

00:36:40This guy's going to be

00:36:40president one day.

00:36:41If you're in that situation,

00:36:42Jordan, do you try to keep the

00:36:43ball high, or do you try to

00:36:45bring it into your body there?

00:36:46I'm just trying to survive the

00:36:48ground, holding the ball, you

00:36:49know, throughout the entire

00:36:50way.

00:36:50We're taught to hand the ball to

00:36:52the ref, so, you know, you

00:36:52don't leave it up to any

00:36:54decision from anybody.

00:36:55You know, at the end of the

00:36:56day, they know you had the

00:36:56ball, and you hand it to the

00:36:57ref, and the play's over.

00:36:59Jordan, y'all have three games

00:37:01left.

00:37:02You're going to be heavily

00:37:03favored, and like I said, like

00:37:04this game was circled and made

00:37:05so much of it for so long.

00:37:07How do you kind of avoid

00:37:08feeling like this is mission

00:37:10accomplished?

00:37:11Like, how do you lock in, finish

00:37:12this fight, knowing that

00:37:13there's way, way bigger tests

00:37:15coming down the road?

00:37:18Yeah.

00:37:18You know, it's kind of doing the

00:37:19same thing we've done for each

00:37:20game throughout this year.

00:37:21You know, taking each week

00:37:22step-by-step, focusing on our

00:37:24stuff, focusing on the game

00:37:24plan, the team we have, you

00:37:26know, in front of us, you

00:37:27know, not making any game

00:37:28too big, any game too small.

00:37:30I think consistency is

00:37:31definitely the biggest part

00:37:32about that.

00:37:32You know, coming into each

00:37:33game, trying to play your best,

00:37:35no matter who it is, across

00:37:36from you on the other side of

00:37:37the ball, and then ultimately

00:37:38just handing business on

00:37:39those Saturdays.

00:37:40Jordan, let's pretend real

00:37:41quick that I'm a respected

00:37:42journalist, and I have a

00:37:44Heisman vote.

00:37:44Why should I give it to C.J.

00:37:46Carr, your quarterback?

00:37:48C.J.

00:37:48Carr, man.

00:37:49He is the best I've seen, you

00:37:53know, playing ball.

00:37:53The way he works both on and

00:37:55off the field, it's just, it's

00:37:57no one else is doing it.

00:37:58I mean, the things he does on

00:38:00the field, you know, things you

00:38:01won't even notice, so we'll get

00:38:02into the film and we'll talk

00:38:02about it the next day.

00:38:04It's just elite level, NFL level

00:38:05stuff, and then also off the

00:38:07field, he's just a great guy.

00:38:08The way he works, his work

00:38:09ethic, you know, he's a true

00:38:11leader, and you know, dude, you

00:38:12kind of want to emulate your

00:38:13life after, so it's a great

00:38:14dude, both on and off the field,

00:38:15great talent.

00:38:17Jordan, speaking of

00:38:17quarterbacks, you played

00:38:19quarterback back in high school,

00:38:20right?

00:38:21I did.

00:38:22What was that transition like

00:38:24going from quarterback to

00:38:25receiver at the college level,

00:38:27and are we going to be seeing

00:38:29any more throws from you at any

00:38:31time soon, or what are you

00:38:32thinking?

00:38:33Yeah, the transition for me was

00:38:35kind of hard.

00:38:35I played wing T offense in high

00:38:37school playing quarterback, so

00:38:38you know, I wasn't really

00:38:39throwing the ball.

00:38:40Kind of a run-first offense,

00:38:41trying to keep the ball in my

00:38:42hands.

00:38:44You know, as far as if we're

00:38:46going to see any more throws

00:38:47from me, I'm not sure.

00:38:49You know, I would love to throw

00:38:50the ball, I love throwing the

00:38:51ball, putting it in the air,

00:38:51seeing the guys catch it, but

00:38:53you know, you're doing what the

00:38:54coaches tell me.

00:38:55Here we go.

00:38:56Look at that.

00:38:56It's right there.

00:38:58Jordan, what about, so I mean,

00:38:59it's not just seemingly playing

00:39:01multiple positions, but

00:39:02multiple sports as well.

00:39:03You've always been a dual sport

00:39:05guy, incredible at lacrosse.

00:39:08You've recently taken a step back

00:39:10from lacrosse to focus on

00:39:11football.

00:39:13How is that feeling?

00:39:16Yeah, it's going well.

00:39:17You know, for my personal

00:39:18development, you know, your body

00:39:20only lasts so long, so stepping

00:39:22away from one sport and kind of

00:39:23giving it all to one has allowed

00:39:24my body to recover a little

00:39:25more, you know, put myself just

00:39:27in one single season, working

00:39:29towards that, working towards the

00:39:30goals I have.

00:39:31You know, the decision to step

00:39:33away was tough.

00:39:34You know, a sport you played your

00:39:35whole life.

00:39:35You know, brothers, you built up

00:39:36around the sport and on the team.

00:39:37Having to step away from that, you

00:39:39know, sucks, but, you know, I had

00:39:40the ultimate decision.

00:39:42Better feeling, scoring a

00:39:43touchdown or multiple goals in a

00:39:47lacrosse game?

00:39:49Given the atmosphere of college

00:39:51football games, I'd probably say

00:39:52scoring a touchdown.

00:39:53Okay.

00:39:53That's fair.

00:39:54That's fair.

00:39:56Jordan, what was your feeling

00:39:57winning a national championship in

00:39:59lacrosse?

00:40:00Walk me through that.

00:40:01Yeah, it was an awesome feeling.

00:40:03The year before, I got to Notre

00:40:05Dame, they had won a national

00:40:07championship, so, you know, the

00:40:08feeling in that locker room and

00:40:09expectation in that locker room

00:40:10was, you know, national

00:40:12championship winning another one.

00:40:14Getting in the locker room with

00:40:15those guys, being around those

00:40:16guys and, you know, kind of, you

00:40:18know, the work ethic, the

00:40:19leadership, just seeing, you

00:40:21know, all the little details about

00:40:22how they operate was awesome.

00:40:24And then, obviously, going to the

00:40:25national championship and going

00:40:26through a run as a freshman.

00:40:27You know, you get to build a lot

00:40:29of experience off that, you know,

00:40:30for your later years to come in

00:40:31college, but that experience was

00:40:33awesome, man.

00:40:33Going in there with your brothers

00:40:34and, you know, getting a national

00:40:35championship is, there's no other

00:40:37greater feeling.

00:40:37Well, Jordan, Ken, thank you enough

00:40:39for the time today.

00:40:40I know you all are very busy.

00:40:41Again, congrats on the massive win

00:40:43and we are all very much looking

00:40:45forward to how the rest of this

00:40:47season plays out.

00:40:48So, thank you very much, man.

00:40:49Yes, sir.

00:40:50Thank you, guys.

00:40:50There he is.

00:40:51No-dame wide receiver, Jordan

00:40:52Faison.

00:40:53I'm voting for that guy.

00:40:54Yeah, what a guy.

00:40:55What a guy.

00:40:56He can do it all.

00:40:56He can play quarterback, play

00:40:57lacrosse, national champion,

00:41:00trying to have a national

00:41:01championship now in football.

00:41:03Would probably be number one

00:41:05hottest guy at Barstool if he

00:41:06worked here.

00:41:07When did we put that next to the

00:41:08bean?

00:41:08They moved it Sunday.

00:41:09You didn't hear?

00:41:10Seven inches, yeah.

00:41:11They had to make room for the

00:41:12Wake Up Barstool logo.

00:41:14I would.

00:41:17Welcome back to Wake Up Barstool

00:41:19here on FS1.

00:41:20So, you know, guys, every day

00:41:23we're getting older.

00:41:25You see crazy things that blow

00:41:27your mind, right?

00:41:28Like these drone shows.

00:41:30I walked to the airport the other

00:41:31day, Cody.

00:41:31Check this out.

00:41:32They got robot wheelchairs now.

00:41:38They got what now?

00:41:39They got robot wheelchairs.

00:41:40They just go and pick people up

00:41:41and then you hop in and bring

00:41:43people in the game.

00:41:44The word you're saying is what?

00:41:45Yeah.

00:41:46What's the word before wheelchair?

00:41:47Like, okay, if you go walk to a

00:41:48sandwich shop, you might see a

00:41:49robot delivery thing just driving

00:41:50food to people all around the

00:41:52place.

00:41:52He's doing, yeah, he's...

00:41:53No, no, Cody, let's get out.

00:41:55The point is...

00:41:56What is football, wizard?

00:41:57The future is now.

00:41:59And we have put our top data

00:42:01scientists on the job here.

00:42:03Yep, I got this.

00:42:04This is gonna suck.

00:42:05We have, we have, we have, we

00:42:06have put the, we have combined the

00:42:08algorithms, we have used AI to

00:42:11develop the code.

00:42:12We've used all the water.

00:42:13And we have made a machine, a

00:42:16thinking machine, that can put you

00:42:18percentages on sports stakes and

00:42:20whether or not they'll come true.

00:42:22We're calling it the Barstool

00:42:24Football Wizard.

00:42:26That's right, the Barstool Football

00:42:27Wizard, a.k.a.

00:42:28Why does it have hair like that?

00:42:30This is the BFW.

00:42:31This is the BFW.

00:42:32The AI machine.

00:42:33That's all.

00:42:34Wait a second.

00:42:35That's a mixture of Ultron and

00:42:38Doctor Doom.

00:42:39That's...

00:42:40It does look kind of Ultron

00:42:41and Doom-like, doesn't it?

00:42:42Yeah.

00:42:42And the Wicker Man.

00:42:44And he's still got the Buddha

00:42:45Ben hoodie on for some reason.

00:42:46So, the Barstool Football

00:42:48Wizard, we, we, we, we, we, we

00:42:50put a take in and it gives us the

00:42:52percentage chance that we believe

00:42:53it's true.

00:42:54Let's put the Robits against

00:42:55humanity and see if we agree.

00:42:57Stop saying Robits.

00:42:59Are you not a Futurama guy?

00:43:00Stop saying Robits.

00:43:01It's a Futurama bit.

00:43:02It's a little Futurama bit.

00:43:03Shut up, Futurama.

00:43:04Uh, Drake May may just be a bad

00:43:09quarterback.

00:43:09According to the BFW, that is

00:43:1065.6% likely to be true.

00:43:14I think you need to recalibrate.

00:43:16How's the BFW, how'd the BFW

00:43:18come up with that?

00:43:19Uh, through his AI algorithms.

00:43:21I think that's, uh, I think

00:43:22that's, uh, Drake May being a bad

00:43:24quarterback is 15% true.

00:43:26Okay.

00:43:27Well, bring it up with the Barstool

00:43:29Football Wizard.

00:43:30That's what I'm saying.

00:43:30He says 65.

00:43:31So you're, so, wait, I thought that

00:43:33you of all people, Brandon, because

00:43:34you've...

00:43:35I think he was really bad early in

00:43:36the season.

00:43:37Yeah.

00:43:37And then he spent about six, seven

00:43:38weeks being good, and then he was

00:43:39bad again the other day.

00:43:40I, I think, uh, over the balance of

00:43:43the last two or three years, you have

00:43:44to land on the side of him being

00:43:45good.

00:43:45Now, he isn't, uh, what Dave and

00:43:47Patriots fans will have you believe,

00:43:49and, and he's not consistent enough,

00:43:51but he is certainly far from a bad

00:43:52quarterback.

00:43:53Yeah, I, I, I think, I think the

00:43:54Wizards actually, I think this is bad

00:43:56math by, by, by the AI.

00:43:58Is it a wizard or a robot?

00:43:59Uh, it's a wizard robot.

00:44:01Okay.

00:44:01That seems a little...

00:44:02What's the, why is it a wizard?

00:44:03What, what, what about this?

00:44:04You're talking AI and robotics.

00:44:07Where'd the wizard come in?

00:44:08Well, because what is, okay, you

00:44:10ever heard the thing that, like,

00:44:11technology you can't explain just

00:44:13feels like magic?

00:44:13Like, if we were to go back in

00:44:15time and, like, show a cell phone

00:44:16in so many medieval times, they

00:44:17would say, oh, a wizard made this.

00:44:19That's, that's, that's magic.

00:44:20It's the same thing.

00:44:21You see what AI spits out

00:44:22nowadays, we have no idea how

00:44:23it's getting to where it is.

00:44:24I want to know, these, these

00:44:26mystery meetings you guys have

00:44:28after, after WUB, and, and you

00:44:30get Tanton in there, and you get

00:44:31Jeremy in there, they sat for

00:44:33hours and came up with, uh, the

00:44:34Barstool Football Wizard, and

00:44:36somebody in graphics had to make a

00:44:37wizard Brandon Walker, which I do

00:44:39want that file.

00:44:40I would like to do that.

00:44:40There's no way of knowing.

00:44:41Wait, is that you?

00:44:42Do you think, do you think the

00:44:44Barstool Football Wizard ever had

00:44:46his Buick Enclave breakdown on his

00:44:48way from Cartersville to Dunwoody?

00:44:51Kyle Whittingham.

00:44:52On 0%, 0% Drake made it to

00:44:53back quarter.

00:44:54Uh, no, he's good.

00:44:55This is a bad take by the, by the

00:44:56AI.

00:44:57All right, Kyle Whittingham is

00:44:59coaching Michigan next season.

00:45:02The Wizard says, 7% chance.

00:45:047%?

00:45:05I think it's, I think it's right at

00:45:0650.

00:45:07Uh, what?

00:45:07I think it's right at 50.

00:45:09Oh, man.

00:45:09They're not going to fire him after

00:45:11one year.

00:45:12And, uh, the, the bigger chance is

00:45:13him walking away and saying, I

00:45:15don't need this.

00:45:16And I'm going back to

00:45:16retirement.

00:45:17I, they're not going to fire him

00:45:18because I think they'd have to eat

00:45:19a big chunk of buyout and you're not

00:45:21going to fire a guy like that after

00:45:22one year.

00:45:22You're going to give them a chance

00:45:23to.

00:45:23This is as unminable a situation as

00:45:25I've ever seen.

00:45:26I mean, there could be their guy

00:45:28coming open.

00:45:29Harbaugh doesn't look like he's

00:45:30going to be sticking around the

00:45:31NFL anymore.

00:45:32So it looks like they could

00:45:33probably, I would say, I bet

00:45:34there's a very good chance that

00:45:35they, Whittingham walks away and

00:45:37they go back and they get their

00:45:38guy, former quarterback at the

00:45:39school, national championship

00:45:40winning coach to be the head

00:45:41coach next year.

00:45:42He actually has a 10 year deal

00:45:44where he can't coach in college

00:45:45football because of all the

00:45:47cheating that they did when he

00:45:48was there.

00:45:49Oh.

00:45:49Yeah.

00:45:4910 year show clause.

00:45:50Or a show clause like, like this.

00:45:52Yeah.

00:45:53Could I come to the defense and I am not

00:45:55a Michigan guy?

00:45:55I hate Michigan.

00:45:56Just like all of us in this room,

00:45:58I imagine.

00:45:59I don't mind him.

00:45:59They did get Kyle Whittingham in

00:46:01there extremely.

00:46:03They got him in there after

00:46:04Christmas.

00:46:05Right before the transfer portal

00:46:08to the.

00:46:09They're losing to Western

00:46:10Michigan.

00:46:10I understand that.

00:46:11But like they had to really put

00:46:12together like this.

00:46:14They're losing to two and six

00:46:15Michigan State.

00:46:17With the makeshift coaching

00:46:17staff.

00:46:17No.

00:46:18It is not excusable.

00:46:20Not a makeshift roster at all.

00:46:21Well, but put it, put it this

00:46:22way.

00:46:22No.

00:46:23He's got a five-star quarterback.

00:46:24He's got a defense that's loaded.

00:46:25It's not a makeshift.

00:46:26He paid their OC $3 million.

00:46:28They, he, this is, I think the

00:46:31wizard's on here.

00:46:32I, I, I think if Whittingham

00:46:33returns next year, it's a disaster

00:46:35for Michigan.

00:46:36He, the game seems to pass him

00:46:37by.

00:46:38He seems uninterested.

00:46:39The quotes about, uh, oh, I

00:46:41think we're finally out of trophy

00:46:43games or whatever.

00:46:44Absolutely absurd.

00:46:45You're bad.

00:46:45Highly paid.

00:46:45You don't care.

00:46:46But then how about the quote

00:46:46yesterday where he's pocket

00:46:47watching Oregon and he's talking

00:46:50about like, oh, well, you know,

00:46:51Dan Lane is good recruiter.

00:46:52Now he does have $50 million, bro.

00:46:54You're at Michigan.

00:46:55This is not Utah anymore.

00:46:57You're at Michigan.

00:46:58You're one of the blue chips.

00:46:59You're one of the big dogs.

00:47:00It feels like an even worse fit

00:47:02than Brian Kelly and LSU did.

00:47:05I, I think if they want to continue

00:47:06down this road, go down.

00:47:07If he gets them to eight and four

00:47:09with a win over Ohio state,

00:47:10there's nowhere he's going anywhere.

00:47:11Yeah.

00:47:12Yeah.

00:47:13That's fine.

00:47:13That's like a massive, if you go

00:47:14six and six with a win over Ohio state.

00:47:16It's a massive, if given how

00:47:17the season has gone.

00:47:19It's been a disaster, but it was

00:47:20also disastrous last season and

00:47:22he had to come in late.

00:47:24Almighty BFW.

00:47:25What are the percentage chances

00:47:26that Carson Wentz starts another

00:47:27NFL game?

00:47:30Pretty high.

00:47:30You never say, yeah, yeah.

00:47:32Not a quarterback.

00:47:3399%.

00:47:34Joe Milton's starting this weekend.

00:47:36Like, like, somebody will always

00:47:37be looking for somebody just to

00:47:38fill in a gap.

00:47:39So I would say 80%.

00:47:42He's awful.

00:47:43He's terrible.

00:47:43But like, there's awful

00:47:45quarterbacks starting in the

00:47:46back half NFL seasons everywhere.

00:47:48Yeah.

00:47:48I mean, there's wide open spaces

00:47:50in the league.

00:47:50What are we, we already did

00:47:51that one.

00:47:52Yeah.

00:47:52He's all, he's all.

00:47:53Oh, my dear.

00:47:54Take a point away from Cody.

00:47:55BFW.

00:47:57What are the percentage chances

00:47:58that the new 2014 playoff format

00:48:01will provide a worthy champion?

00:48:04What?

00:48:07What's the noise?

00:48:07Oh, oh, a hundred.

00:48:09Why would, hold on.

00:48:10Time out.

00:48:11Yeah, the AI's way off.

00:48:13You're a dumb robot.

00:48:14You can think, you can think

00:48:15that there's too many teams

00:48:17in the playoff.

00:48:17You can think whatever you want

00:48:19that values the regular season.

00:48:20You cannot say it's not going

00:48:21to give us a worthy champion.

00:48:22Somebody's going to have to

00:48:23go through this thing

00:48:24and go through four or five games

00:48:26and layers and levels.

00:48:28They're going to have to have

00:48:28home games, road games.

00:48:29Like, there's, it's a hundred

00:48:30percent going to crown

00:48:31the right champion.

00:48:32It's actually like the,

00:48:33the only thing that is

00:48:34objectively is doing.

00:48:35Yes.

00:48:36Is crowning the correct champion

00:48:37because you're actually having

00:48:38to winning like a very

00:48:39traditional tournament

00:48:40against all the best teams.

00:48:42If anything, old college football,

00:48:44while we loved all the other aspects,

00:48:45that was kind of one of the problems

00:48:47was.

00:48:47You can't fluke your way to this.

00:48:48Yeah, maybe it wasn't always

00:48:49the, the, the most worthy

00:48:51or deserving champion.

00:48:53So yeah.

00:48:53A hundred percent.

00:48:54So you're saying the BFW's

00:48:55dead wrong here.

00:48:56BFW's dead wrong.

00:48:57Yeah.

00:48:57In fact, I got to say this.

00:48:59This BFW seems like an idiot.

00:49:02He kind of hasn't been right

00:49:03once yet.

00:49:03BFW is a moron.

00:49:05He is a clown moron

00:49:07and shouldn't even have the job

00:49:09that he has apparently.

00:49:11BFW sucks.

00:49:12Moron from metadata.

00:49:14If you have any issues with him,

00:49:16tweet at BFW.

00:49:17Yes.

00:49:17This, this AI I think sucks.

00:49:21Hey BFW, what are the chances

00:49:22that Tennessee will finish

00:49:23the regular season ahead of Alabama

00:49:25in the college football

00:49:26playoff rankings?

00:49:270.0%.

00:49:28Alabama's in the barn.

00:49:306%.

00:49:31What?

00:49:31No, it's 0.0.

00:49:32What's Alabama got left?

00:49:33Auburn, an FCS team

00:49:36and then whoever they got.

00:49:38Vandy, I believe.

00:49:39Vandy.

00:49:39Yeah.

00:49:40Alabama's finished.

00:49:40They're in the barn.

00:49:41Watch out for Alan Skolish.

00:49:42Tennessee can't pass them

00:49:43and Tennessee's got,

00:49:44this weekend.

00:49:45I'm just kidding.

00:49:46This weekend, Tennessee

00:49:47at Texas A&M.

00:49:48Tennessee has been bad

00:49:49on the road.

00:49:50Look out.

00:49:50That smells,

00:49:51that smells stinky.

00:49:52Yeah, okay.

00:49:54So, but 0%

00:49:54they finish ahead of Alabama.

00:49:56Crazy.

00:49:57What if they make,

00:49:58what if they what?

00:49:59It's a championship game.

00:50:02How are they going to make,

00:50:03I don't know.

00:50:04Listen, I'm a path guy.

00:50:05I got to go find a path.

00:50:06Yeah.

00:50:07Yeah.

00:50:08Yeah.

00:50:09What about Joe Burrow

00:50:10Sure.

00:50:11winning MVP

00:50:14and the Bengals

00:50:15reaching the Super Bowl?

00:50:17I would say

00:50:17that is a

00:50:1917% chance.

00:50:21Okay.

00:50:21Connor,

00:50:22what about you?

00:50:22How do you feel about that?

00:50:2330% nearly

00:50:24from the BFW.

00:50:26I could see an MVP.

00:50:27I think

00:50:28then adding in the qualifier

00:50:30of making it to a Super Bowl

00:50:31is pretty tough.

00:50:32You got to go through

00:50:32the Bills,

00:50:33the Patriots,

00:50:34the,

00:50:35everybody's.

00:50:35The top heavy AFC this year.

00:50:37I think,

00:50:37yeah,

00:50:38I think the betting odds

00:50:39have said this is like

00:50:39a 1 to 2% chance.

00:50:41Maybe lower,

00:50:41right?

00:50:42Because it's like,

00:50:42like you said,

00:50:43it's two impossible,

00:50:44almost impossible tasks

00:50:45and to do them both

00:50:46in the same year.

00:50:47Who was the last MVP

00:50:47that won a Super Bowl?

00:50:50I don't know.

00:50:51Connor,

00:50:51what do you think

00:50:52about the BFW?

00:50:53Kenneth Walker.

00:50:54I'm now realizing,

00:50:56I'm now realizing that

00:50:57I said Ultron

00:50:59and then I also

00:51:00throw in Doctor Doom.

00:51:01I think it's also

00:51:02a little bit of

00:51:02He Who Remains.

00:51:03I think it's a little bit

00:51:04of Kang.

00:51:05I think that this is just

00:51:06like a mixture of

00:51:08three of the biggest

00:51:08Marvel villains

00:51:09in the past 10 years.

00:51:11Tell me it's just

00:51:12AI Slott?

00:51:14In a way.

00:51:15I think it's just

00:51:15all the Marvel villains.

00:51:16Kurt Warner,

00:51:1799,

00:51:18last MVP Super Bowl champion.

00:51:20Wow.

00:51:20It wasn't that old.

00:51:21Super Bowl champion.

00:51:23That was the year

00:51:24I was born?

00:51:25Mighty BFW,

00:51:26you dumb robot.

00:51:27What are the chances

00:51:28that both Utah

00:51:29and UCLA

00:51:31make the playoffs?

00:51:32Oh, very good.

00:51:33Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:51:34There you go.

00:51:35UCLA just refuses to lose.

00:51:37Utah is clearly

00:51:38the class of that conference.

00:51:39So I would say

00:51:41and if Utah goes

00:51:4312-0,

00:51:43they could even lose

00:51:44the Big 12 title game.

00:51:45So I would say

00:51:4793%,

00:51:47that looks good.

00:51:48Another reason why

00:51:49the BFW may be right

00:51:50about the low

00:51:51winning hand percentage,

00:51:52though.

00:51:53I know it's probably

00:51:54it's not completely fair

00:51:55to do it,

00:51:56but like

00:51:56it's impossible

00:51:57to ignore the fact

00:51:58that Morgan Scali

00:52:00finally gets to take over

00:52:01and all of a sudden

00:52:01Utah's in a better position

00:52:03than they have been

00:52:03in a decade.

00:52:05Yeah, I mean

00:52:05the last two years

00:52:07Utah has kind of

00:52:07been around

00:52:08this quality

00:52:09of team.

00:52:10They just had

00:52:10they've dropped

00:52:11their big ones,

00:52:12which you could say

00:52:13is coaching wins

00:52:14on the margins.

00:52:15But yeah,

00:52:15it's kind of a reflection

00:52:17that they didn't

00:52:18lose a step, right?

00:52:19Yeah.

00:52:20At worst.

00:52:21Yeah.

00:52:23Mighty BFW.

00:52:24How many?

00:52:25What are the chances

00:52:26that Kamario Taylor

00:52:27starts for a school

00:52:29that begins

00:52:30with an M

00:52:31next year?

00:52:34I don't see.

00:52:35100%.

00:52:36Yeah, there you go.

00:52:37So you agree.

00:52:38It could be like

00:52:38Miami,

00:52:41Minnesota.

00:52:43This is

00:52:44Madison College.

00:52:46You guys wanted

00:52:46to troll me so bad

00:52:47this is what you

00:52:48came up with?

00:52:49This is what you

00:52:50came up with.

00:52:50It's 100%.

00:52:51It's going to start

00:52:52for Mississippi State.

00:52:53That deal is being

00:52:53made right now.

00:52:54And why isn't

00:52:55Mississippi State

00:52:55in the damn thing

00:52:57below there?

00:52:57Why does it say

00:52:58Mississippi?

00:52:58You know what

00:52:59the sad part is?

00:53:00I guarantee

00:53:00our producers

00:53:01just assumed

00:53:02that Mississippi

00:53:02could be like

00:53:03a placeholder

00:53:04for Mississippi State

00:53:05not realizing

00:53:06that they were

00:53:06actually projecting

00:53:07The deal's getting

00:53:08done as we speak.

00:53:09Miami have Ohio

00:53:10on there too.

00:53:11That's just a slap

00:53:12in the face

00:53:12to BFW.

00:53:13Listen, they might

00:53:14win the MAAC

00:53:14this year.

00:53:15What's that?

00:53:16That's true.

00:53:16Miami, Ohio.

00:53:18What about them?

00:53:19They might win the MAAC.

00:53:19Big win last night.

00:53:20Oh, really?

00:53:21Yeah, they're looking

00:53:22good.

00:53:23Any other group

00:53:24of six nuggets

00:53:27for us there

00:53:27that we should care

00:53:28about?

00:53:28I mean, New Mexico.

00:53:30My eyeballs.

00:53:31Shout out Jason.

00:53:31My eyeballs tell me

00:53:33yeah, our friend

00:53:33Jason Eck

00:53:34has the best team.

00:53:35And he doesn't

00:53:35have, he, like

00:53:37they should have

00:53:38beat up a lot.

00:53:38They had their

00:53:39certain quarterback

00:53:40to beat up a lot.

00:53:41If you're a Wisconsin

00:53:42fan, do you want

00:53:42to lose a couple

00:53:43more and get him

00:53:44in there?

00:53:44I think the thing

00:53:46would you rather

00:53:47Yeah, yeah.

00:53:489-3, 10-2

00:53:49would be, or whatever

00:53:509-3 at this point

00:53:51would be good.

00:53:53But like

00:53:537-5, get Jason Eck?

00:53:55That's better.

00:53:56I think, I genuinely

00:53:56think if they finish

00:53:57like 8-4 but they

00:53:58lose and blow out

00:53:59some Minnesota

00:54:00and Iowa

00:54:00he's gone

00:54:01the fickle's

00:54:02got to be gone

00:54:02and you've got

00:54:03to go get your

00:54:03guy, right?

00:54:04Because Jason Eck

00:54:05is built for the

00:54:06Big Ten, like

00:54:07elite defensive

00:54:07Yeah.

00:54:09But clearly only

00:54:09wants one job.

00:54:11What are you

00:54:11doing with this?

00:54:12It's done

00:54:12Manny, isn't it?

00:54:13Wait a second.

00:54:14Like this is

00:54:15very representative

00:54:16of what our

00:54:16future looks like

00:54:17as we're all

00:54:18slowly replaced

00:54:19fit by Manny.

00:54:20For I am

00:54:21doom.

00:54:22That's about it.

00:54:23Coming up next

00:54:24it's revisit

00:54:25the NFL trade

00:54:25deadline.

00:54:26Thank you to

00:54:26all the hardcore

00:54:28data scientists

00:54:28and engineers

00:54:29that worked in

00:54:29the BFW.

00:54:30We'll see you

00:54:31on the other

00:54:32side of the

00:54:32break.

00:54:36I'm MC2

00:54:36Myles McDonough

00:54:37in Stuttgart,

00:54:38Germany.

00:54:39To you, Bob,

00:54:40thanks for sticking

00:54:40up for our squad.

00:54:41Let's go Saints.

00:54:42Who dat?

00:54:43Right, baby.

00:54:44Who dat, Myles?

00:54:45And thank you

00:54:46for your service

00:54:47and thank you to

00:54:47all the incredible

00:54:48vets.

00:54:49I guess my

00:54:50kindergarten daughter's

00:54:52teacher's husband.

00:54:53Does that make sense?

00:54:53You get what I'm saying?

00:54:54Yeah.

00:54:54My daughter's

00:54:55teacher's husband

00:54:56is a veteran

00:54:58and my adorable

00:54:59daughter must have

00:55:01been thinking about

00:55:01uniforms or whatnot

00:55:02and she told her

00:55:03teacher that I'm a

00:55:04veteran as well.

00:55:06She was thinking

00:55:07of the Nutcracker.

00:55:08I'm a veteran

00:55:08of the Nutcracker play

00:55:10and so I had to

00:55:11explain to the teacher

00:55:11yesterday that no,

00:55:12I never served.

00:55:13When were you

00:55:14on the Nutcracker?

00:55:15Multiple years

00:55:16in Baton Rouge.

00:55:16What?

00:55:17Yeah, the Purple

00:55:17Party, Dad.

00:55:18What is any of those?

00:55:19Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:55:20So recently though?

00:55:22Yeah, yeah.

00:55:22It's the thing

00:55:23that I miss most

00:55:24about back home.

00:55:24The Nutcracker.

00:55:25You did serve on

00:55:26the front line

00:55:27as a warrior

00:55:27for the tribe

00:55:28of LSU.

00:55:30And yeah,

00:55:30and I failed

00:55:31miserably last week.

00:55:32We could probably get you

00:55:32into a showing

00:55:33of the Nutcracker here.

00:55:34I've got things

00:55:35in motion.

00:55:36I don't know

00:55:36if it's going to

00:55:36work out this year

00:55:37but I...

00:55:38It will not be...

00:55:39Yeah, absolutely.

00:55:40It will not be

00:55:40the last time...

00:55:41Show me your passe.

00:55:42Show me your passe.

00:55:44Show me first...

00:55:44Show me that passe.

00:55:45Show me first

00:55:46the second position.

00:55:46Show me that passe.

00:55:47First is here,

00:55:48right?

00:55:49And then I believe

00:55:49it's here.

00:55:50Yep.

00:55:50And then here.

00:55:51And then here.

00:55:52What is...

00:55:52And then I think

00:55:53is passe...

00:55:55Oh, you don't know.

00:55:55This move right here?

00:55:56Yeah, yeah.

00:55:57And then you guide...

00:55:58You guide the point

00:55:59up your leg.

00:55:59Oh, like this?

00:56:00Yeah, I don't know

00:56:00why I know that.

00:56:01Do you know how to do a passe?

00:56:02No, dude.

00:56:03God, no.

00:56:03Time out.

00:56:04Do you know how to passe?

00:56:05No, I don't dance.

00:56:07But...

00:56:08Okay, Miles,

00:56:09thank you so much

00:56:09for the shout-out.

00:56:10Also, guys,

00:56:11are the Saints

00:56:11going to win the NFC South?

00:56:12No.

00:56:13I think so.

00:56:13You thought about it?

00:56:15I think we're in

00:56:16with the four-way tie

00:56:17at eight and ten.

00:56:18Oh, it's going to be glorious.

00:56:20That would require

00:56:21an extra game.

00:56:21Yeah, that would require

00:56:22that work.

00:56:23Well, that's the only way

00:56:24to solve the NFC South.

00:56:25Yeah, yeah.

00:56:25Four-way playoff.

00:56:26They try and have

00:56:27a one-game tiebreaker

00:56:28and then everybody

00:56:28just ties regardless.

00:56:29Four-way game.

00:56:31Now, unfortunately...

00:56:32These teams sting.

00:56:33Fortunately...

00:56:34The Bucs are winning

00:56:34this one, right?

00:56:35You know what the

00:56:35beautiful thing is?

00:56:36That, like,

00:56:36I think everyone

00:56:37has stopped doing

00:56:38the thank God

00:56:39everyone around here

00:56:40sucks and I don't

00:56:41except for Stephen Che.

00:56:43Stephen Che is the only

00:56:44one that is still

00:56:45doing the

00:56:45this Bucs team is good.

00:56:47This Bucs team stinks.

00:56:49This Falcons team stinks.

00:56:50This Panthers team

00:56:51is horrible.

00:56:52And the Saints

00:56:53might have a good quarterback

00:56:53but they're horrible.

00:56:55But they just got back

00:56:55Kelvin Banks and Jordan Tyson.

00:56:58Che came out

00:56:58of that Bears game

00:56:59talking crap

00:57:00to the Bears fans.

00:57:00He said,

00:57:01you better watch out.

00:57:02You better hope

00:57:02we don't play again.

00:57:04All right,

00:57:05let's get into

00:57:05some trade deadline

00:57:06winners and losers.

00:57:07None of these teams

00:57:08uber involved.

00:57:09The Falcons sold

00:57:10some pieces and whatnot.

00:57:11But let's think

00:57:13about the most

00:57:13major moves

00:57:13that we saw, right?

00:57:15Vikings bringing

00:57:16Kirk Cousins,

00:57:17Chiefs Josh Downs,

00:57:18Bears,

00:57:18the list goes on

00:57:19and on.

00:57:21Evo,

00:57:22who do you believe

00:57:23is the biggest winner

00:57:24from the trade deadline

00:57:25when it's all said

00:57:26and done?

00:57:27I mean,

00:57:28it feels like the Jaguars

00:57:29kind of just filled

00:57:30in some spots

00:57:30that they needed.

00:57:31They were already

00:57:31a pretty complete team

00:57:33in terms of being good

00:57:34on the offensive

00:57:35and defensive side

00:57:36of the ball.

00:57:37I mean,

00:57:38they go get

00:57:38Jesse Bates

00:57:39from Atlanta.

00:57:39Yeah,

00:57:41Gladstone does seem

00:57:41to be from

00:57:42the less need

00:57:44school of

00:57:45these picks

00:57:45don't matter.

00:57:46Or like,

00:57:47they don't matter

00:57:47the way you think

00:57:48they matter.

00:57:48I'm going to spend

00:57:49them when I want

00:57:50to spend them.

00:57:51Maybe not on picks

00:57:51in April,

00:57:52but I'm going to use

00:57:52them at the trade

00:57:54deadline.

00:57:54He even set the tone

00:57:56when he originally

00:57:56went after Travis Hunter

00:57:57as aggressively

00:57:58as he did, right?

00:57:59Like,

00:58:00Gladstone,

00:58:00he's young

00:58:01and he is going

00:58:02to say,

00:58:03he's very confident.

00:58:04And he has

00:58:05the invulnerability

00:58:07of youth

00:58:08where you have

00:58:08self-belief

00:58:09that as you get

00:58:10older seems to crumble

00:58:11where he's like,

00:58:12no, no,

00:58:12we're making decisions.

00:58:13We're going for it.

00:58:14The only thing is,

00:58:15did he pay too much

00:58:16for Jordan Davis

00:58:18given that Jordan Davis

00:58:19is a great run stuffer,

00:58:21but he does not

00:58:23impact the quarterback

00:58:25like a Simmons,

00:58:26which is going to be

00:58:27the obvious cop here

00:58:28because that was

00:58:28the other big

00:58:28interior guy.

00:58:30Cut it out.

00:58:31Gladstone knows

00:58:32what he's doing.

00:58:32It's fantastic.

00:58:33That was...

00:58:36He kind of...

00:58:37Well,

00:58:37T-Bob...

00:58:39There's no way

00:58:39they know.

00:58:40I mean,

00:58:40they're right.

00:58:40I know that,

00:58:41yeah.

00:58:41Cut it out, guys.

00:58:43There's no way.

00:58:43There's no way

00:58:44Ivo knows

00:58:44you got it, dude.

00:58:45I know what

00:58:46you're talking about.

00:58:46There we go.

00:58:47Okay, nice.

00:58:48The thing with Davis,

00:58:49too,

00:58:49is that he's only

00:58:50playing around

00:58:5150 to 52%

00:58:53of the defensive snaps.

00:58:54Yeah,

00:58:54that's what I'm saying.

00:58:55That's probably

00:58:55all they need, though.

00:58:56Well, yeah,

00:58:57and I do say

00:58:58he is a better

00:58:59pass rusher

00:59:00than I think

00:59:01you're giving him

00:59:01credit for,

00:59:02T-Bob,

00:59:02but based off

00:59:03alone,

00:59:04no,

00:59:04he has not been

00:59:04effective in that

00:59:05category at all.

00:59:06He got paid big time.

00:59:07His performance

00:59:08kind of took a dip

00:59:09after that,

00:59:09but,

00:59:10I mean,

00:59:11you're seeing

00:59:11with the Jaguars

00:59:12right now,

00:59:13they were already

00:59:14thumping teams

00:59:14to begin with,

00:59:15and the past

00:59:16two Super Bowl

00:59:16champs,

00:59:17the Seahawks

00:59:17and the Eagles

00:59:18have had these

00:59:19insane defenses.

00:59:20Now they're

00:59:20showing up

00:59:21on that defensive

00:59:21side of the ball.

00:59:22I think they're

00:59:23going to be

00:59:23really scary,

00:59:24really scary the rest of it.

00:59:25And I want to get

00:59:26to the Eagles

00:59:26in a second,

00:59:27but Brandon,

00:59:27if I were to ask

00:59:28you who the biggest

00:59:29winner from the

00:59:29deadline is,

00:59:30who is it?

00:59:31I'm sticking with the Bears.

00:59:33I think adding

00:59:33Jeffrey Simmons,

00:59:34they were,

00:59:35the Bears were on the

00:59:36cusp of being a real

00:59:36contender,

00:59:37and Jeffrey Simmons

00:59:38knocks them over

00:59:39the top to being

00:59:40an actual contender

00:59:41and one of the

00:59:41favorites in the

00:59:41NFC.

00:59:42Jeffrey Simmons

00:59:43is one of the

00:59:43ten best players

00:59:44in the National

00:59:44Football League,

00:59:45and he has been

00:59:46for a while.

00:59:47He's been buried

00:59:47on a bad team,

00:59:48and nobody's been

00:59:49able to watch it,

00:59:50but he is a

00:59:51fantastic player

00:59:52and a winner

00:59:53from a winning

00:59:53program.

00:59:54Yes, Cody?

00:59:55I was going to say,

00:59:56speaking of a guy

00:59:56who's been buried

00:59:57on a bad team,

00:59:59Buffalo got a hook

01:00:00hooker from

01:00:00Tennessee and beefed

01:00:02up their secondary.

01:00:03Huge move that not

01:00:04a lot of people

01:00:04around the league

01:00:05are talking about.

01:00:06Yeah, so Buffalo's

01:00:077-1, and as we

01:00:09said, all the big

01:00:10dogs made some

01:00:11moves.

01:00:12You think hooker

01:00:13puts Buffalo,

01:00:15like, where?

01:00:16Like, what was,

01:00:17is it, are they

01:00:19now the favorite?

01:00:20Were they already

01:00:21your favorite?

01:00:21Is this further

01:00:22solidification?

01:00:22How big of an

01:00:23effect does the hooker

01:00:24have on Buffalo?

01:00:24Yeah.

01:00:25Huge.

01:00:25I mean, ten days

01:00:27ago we had three

01:00:28interceptions

01:00:28against the guy

01:00:29we're talking

01:00:29about, Joe Burrow,

01:00:30who could win

01:00:31MVP this year.

01:00:32He kind of was

01:00:32wasting his career,

01:00:33but now he's in

01:00:34Buffalo, we get him

01:00:35in, I think he's

01:00:35going to be unreal

01:00:36addition for this

01:00:37defense.

01:00:38And I don't know

01:00:39if we're going to

01:00:39see Bishop or

01:00:41Hamlin, I don't

01:00:41know how he's

01:00:42going to fit in.

01:00:42Waiting for the

01:00:43punchline.

01:00:43There's no punchline,

01:00:44I'm just talking

01:00:45ball.

01:00:45I still think

01:00:47Quentin Nelson

01:00:48and the Seahawks

01:00:48is interesting.

01:00:49Now, we'll see if

01:00:50it ends up being

01:00:51enough.

01:00:52If the running

01:00:52backs stink,

01:00:52though.

01:00:54Yeah, I mean,

01:00:55again, no position

01:00:57outside of running

01:00:58back can affect the

01:00:59running game more

01:01:00than bringing in a

01:01:00great guard.

01:01:01And it's all

01:01:02contingent.

01:01:03Seattle's a weird

01:01:04team because I

01:01:05don't know if

01:01:06they're even going

01:01:07to make the

01:01:07playoffs, but if

01:01:08they do, I think

01:01:10they're capable of

01:01:10winning the Super

01:01:11Bowl because of how

01:01:12good the defense is

01:01:13and Quentin Nelson

01:01:14go a long way

01:01:15towards having an

01:01:15offense that hasn't

01:01:16been at its best

01:01:17this year.

01:01:18Am I an idiot?

01:01:18If we pull up the

01:01:21AFC playoff picture

01:01:22again, am I an

01:01:24idiot for thinking

01:01:24that it's already

01:01:25kind of sorted out?

01:01:25It's just like we're

01:01:26going to seed these

01:01:27teams one through

01:01:27seven?

01:01:28Yeah, the only

01:01:28thing is I think

01:01:31the Texans are the

01:01:32one team.

01:01:33It's ironic because

01:01:34they're kind of

01:01:35buried there, but

01:01:36the Texans are the

01:01:37one team.

01:01:37If the Patriots

01:01:38have some missteps,

01:01:39I believe the Texans

01:01:40can close that gap

01:01:41because I think the

01:01:41Browns are done.

01:01:42I think the Raiders

01:01:43are done.

01:01:43I think the Ravens

01:01:44are done.

01:01:45We're unironically

01:01:46doing the Jets two

01:01:47and seven in the

01:01:48hunt, or are we

01:01:48just trying to make

01:01:49the Jets fans not

01:01:50feel that bad?

01:01:51They're mathematically

01:01:52in the hunt.

01:01:53New York Jets are

01:01:55never mathematically

01:01:56I actually would

01:01:56like to look into

01:01:57the proof, the

01:01:59mathematical proof of

01:02:00the in the hunt

01:02:01equation.

01:02:02You guys should have

01:02:02asked the BFW on

01:02:03this one.

01:02:04Yeah.

01:02:04So, Connor, we're

01:02:07talking a lot about

01:02:07additions, but what

01:02:08about addition by

01:02:09subtraction?

01:02:10You're Philadelphia

01:02:10Eagles now, losing a

01:02:12lot, but you have

01:02:14ten first or second

01:02:16round picks now over

01:02:17the next three drafts.

01:02:18Like, is this a full

01:02:20rebuild?

01:02:20Like, how, as an

01:02:21Eagles fan, how are

01:02:22you approaching this?

01:02:23Because this feels

01:02:24like sneakily out of

01:02:25nowhere, all of a

01:02:26sudden, okay, we're

01:02:27starting back from

01:02:27grounds here.

01:02:28It's a full reset,

01:02:28dude.

01:02:29Well, so people have

01:02:30been toying back and

01:02:31forth with the word,

01:02:32oh, is it just a

01:02:33retool or is it a

01:02:34rebuild?

01:02:36It's a rebuild.

01:02:37It's a full reset.

01:02:38Yeah, this is kind of

01:02:39starting over.

01:02:41It's going to be

01:02:41interesting to see,

01:02:42yeah, with those

01:02:43draft picks, do they

01:02:44go and try and get

01:02:45another quarterback with

01:02:47a first or a second

01:02:47round?

01:02:48I don't know, but I

01:02:49definitely think you

01:02:50have to sure up the

01:02:50offensive line.

01:02:51The offensive line has

01:02:52been, I mean,

01:02:53miserable this year.

01:02:54Defensive line, you

01:02:55also have to go out,

01:02:56especially after

01:02:57trading away Jordan

01:02:58Davis, even though I

01:02:58do think that Mauro

01:02:59Jomo could slide in

01:03:00there pretty nicely.

01:03:01You're going to have

01:03:01to make sure that you

01:03:02are back to being a

01:03:04strong team at the

01:03:05line of scrimmage

01:03:05because they're just

01:03:06not right now.

01:03:07So if it is a full

01:03:08rebuild, do they go

01:03:09quarterback then?

01:03:10And do they go new

01:03:10head coach?

01:03:11Is it crazy to say

01:03:14that the Eagles, the

01:03:15Eagles don't know if

01:03:16Jalen Hurts is ever

01:03:16going to play football

01:03:17again?

01:03:17Which is a valid

01:03:19concern.

01:03:19Is that the chatter?

01:03:21Well, I mean, they

01:03:22said it was going to be

01:03:23like three months, he

01:03:24gets back after the

01:03:25year is over, gets back

01:03:26into the swing of

01:03:27things.

01:03:27We'll see.

01:03:28But it's blood

01:03:28clots.

01:03:29Let's say Jalen Hurts

01:03:31never plays quarterback

01:03:31again.

01:03:32You now have a billion

01:03:33assets to trade for a

01:03:35Justin Herbert, save

01:03:36him from...

01:03:37Would that even make a

01:03:39difference?

01:03:40Really?

01:03:43I'm dumb enough where I

01:03:44could always convince

01:03:45myself that I could fix

01:03:46Justin Herbert.

01:03:47Like, I know the

01:03:48Herbert haters would

01:03:49tell me I'm an idiot

01:03:50and that, no, he's

01:03:51proven who he is, but

01:03:52he's so good looking

01:03:53and has such a physical

01:03:55skill set that, yeah, I

01:03:56can fix him.

01:03:57Some Stafford at him.

01:03:58You think he'd be in

01:03:58the top 15 at

01:03:59Barstool Sports?

01:04:00Yeah, I think he'd

01:04:01probably at least crack

01:04:02the list.

01:04:02Just on height alone.

01:04:04All I know is that

01:04:05this is where you

01:04:05don't want to be if

01:04:06you're another NFL GM

01:04:07is seeing Howie Roseman

01:04:08with all those picks.

01:04:09Any surprise that

01:04:11Jonathan Taylor didn't

01:04:12move out of Indy, and

01:04:14is that the right

01:04:14choice for the Colts

01:04:15to keep Taylor at a

01:04:16time when they're

01:04:16selling everybody?

01:04:17I don't think it

01:04:17was the Colts'

01:04:18choice.

01:04:18I don't think anybody

01:04:19was going to give

01:04:20up the high draft

01:04:22pick capital for a

01:04:23running back, for a

01:04:24running back who's

01:04:25not exactly young.

01:04:25I think if the Colts

01:04:27could have moved him,

01:04:28the Colts would have

01:04:29moved him.

01:04:29I think they probably

01:04:31set the asking price

01:04:32a little too high because

01:04:33of what he's

01:04:33meant to the program

01:04:34there, to the

01:04:35franchise, but I

01:04:36don't think anybody

01:04:37was going to upset

01:04:37their season and

01:04:38upset their future to

01:04:39bring in a running

01:04:40back.

01:04:40Production, can we

01:04:41do this?

01:04:41Can you bring up the

01:04:42Raiders schedule?

01:04:43Because we talked a

01:04:44lot about Kirk

01:04:45Cousins going back to

01:04:45Minnesota earlier and

01:04:47this kind of desperate

01:04:48he by the Vikings who

01:04:50have a Super Bowl

01:04:50defense and they're 6-2

01:04:52in a crazy division.

01:04:53Like, Cousins coming

01:04:54in to be hero, but

01:04:55the other storyline there

01:04:56is now you have a

01:04:58Raiders team, which

01:04:59has, the graphic

01:05:00pointed out,

01:05:02mathematically very

01:05:02relevant.

01:05:03Like, we wrote them

01:05:04off, but like, they

01:05:05could catch the

01:05:06Patriots, they're

01:05:07right there, and now

01:05:08you have the number

01:05:09one overall pick in

01:05:10Fernando Mendoza

01:05:11stepping in.

01:05:13Brutal first couple

01:05:14of games.

01:05:14Timing-wise, it just

01:05:16sucks.

01:05:16Hey, Fernando, here's

01:05:17the Seahawks and the

01:05:18Broncos on the road.

01:05:19You'd almost wish they

01:05:21had done it before the

01:05:21Jets game or something

01:05:22to give him one of

01:05:23those easy, you know,

01:05:25kind of easy, you

01:05:26know, ease into it.

01:05:27I thought, looking at

01:05:28the scheduled

01:05:28preseason, I thought

01:05:29post-bye week always

01:05:30made the most sense.

01:05:31I definitely understand

01:05:33moving him, or why

01:05:34this happened, though,

01:05:35because somehow turning

01:05:37Kirk Cousins into a

01:05:38third-round pick is

01:05:38actually really absurd

01:05:40and great management by

01:05:41Spytek and the Raiders.

01:05:43Fernando, though, even

01:05:45though I don't think

01:05:45it's likely, he has

01:05:48made a career of blowing

01:05:50away storylines, right,

01:05:51of shocking us with what

01:05:53he's been able to

01:05:54accomplish.

01:05:55What if he comes in

01:05:56and just goes on a run,

01:05:57dude?

01:05:58Goes on a run.

01:05:59That'd be pretty cool.

01:05:59Rip a playoff spot away

01:06:01and all of a sudden,

01:06:02here, Raiders fans are,

01:06:04they've found their guy

01:06:05for the future.

01:06:05I don't think it's

01:06:06going to happen, but

01:06:07the potential is there.

01:06:08I mean, there's, I'm

01:06:09looking at four, maybe

01:06:11five, pretty, if they're

01:06:14a good team, I can see

01:06:15wins there, and if they

01:06:15steal one, if they steal

01:06:17one from like a Seahawks

01:06:18or steal one from a

01:06:19Chiefs, I mean, I can see

01:06:20them getting back into

01:06:21that mix.

01:06:22They ought to beat the

01:06:23Cardinals, they ought to

01:06:23beat the Titans, they

01:06:24ought to beat the

01:06:24Chargers, they could

01:06:25beat the Browns.

01:06:26Browns, as currently

01:06:27composed, are looking

01:06:29like they're not going

01:06:29to be very good.

01:06:30Ibo, you're a fantasy

01:06:31guy, right?

01:06:33Does Kirk Cousins save

01:06:35Justin Jefferson fantasy

01:06:36owners?

01:06:37Because I know they've

01:06:38been kind of desperately

01:06:39hoping for it.

01:06:39Yes, and let me tell

01:06:40you something, I know

01:06:41you asked him the

01:06:41question, but I am in

01:06:42the little sass barstool

01:06:44fantasy league.

01:06:45I have Kirk Cousins, and I

01:06:47have Justin Jefferson.

01:06:48Justin Jefferson was my

01:06:49second round pick, and it

01:06:50has been a nightmare the

01:06:51last two years, because I

01:06:52had him last year too,

01:06:53okay?

01:06:54And it has been a

01:06:54nightmare, and this guy

01:06:56needs a quarterback, and

01:06:57now we're getting the band

01:06:58back together?

01:06:59Woo-hoo!

01:06:59Yes!

01:07:00Yes, I'm four and five, and

01:07:01I've lost two in a row.

01:07:03This is the perfect godsend

01:07:04for my fantasy football team.

01:07:05Thank you for asking that

01:07:06question to Ibo.

01:07:07For those wondering, the

01:07:08Barstool, Big Cat, Scorpions

01:07:10fantasy team that's in the

01:07:11Major League Baseball League

01:07:13with the likes of Mike

01:07:15Trout, Kyle Schwarber, those

01:07:16types of guys.

01:07:16Matt Olsen, ever heard of

01:07:18these guys?

01:07:18Yeah, pretty big.

01:07:19That's as big a deal as my

01:07:20league with little sass.

01:07:21Yeah, we just won again

01:07:23last week.

01:07:24We're seven and two, first

01:07:26place in the league, yeah,

01:07:27with Bijan, Jameer Gibbs,

01:07:29and Josh Allen, and no, it

01:07:30is not an eight.

01:07:30How the, timeout, timeout,

01:07:32timeout.

01:07:33What kind of idiots you got

01:07:34in this league where you

01:07:34were able to get Bijan and

01:07:36Jameer Gibbs?

01:07:36So we hit the first pick, we

01:07:37took Gibbs, and then we

01:07:38took Allen on the turn, and

01:07:39then...

01:07:41No, no, we actually

01:07:42traded Josh Jacobs, Michael

01:07:44Wilson, and George Pickens

01:07:46for Bijan two weeks ago.

01:07:49Yeah, we need to publicly

01:07:50put whatever Major League

01:07:52player this was.

01:07:52I think it was Jake

01:07:53Marisnyk accepted that

01:07:54trade, and then I think

01:07:55Josh Jacobs, Michael

01:07:58Wilson, and George

01:07:58Pickens all got hurt.

01:08:00Even if they were healthy,

01:08:02what are you doing,

01:08:03Marisnyk?

01:08:03Well, they needed depth,

01:08:04and so we have Bijan,

01:08:06yeah, we have Bijan,

01:08:07Gibbs, and Allen.

01:08:07You have Bijan, Gibbs, and

01:08:08Josh Allen?

01:08:09We are starting

01:08:10Flournoy at our wide

01:08:11receiver two, which sucks,

01:08:12but we have the three

01:08:12studs, we have the three

01:08:13stallions.

01:08:14You have three of the

01:08:14five best players in the

01:08:15league.

01:08:16Yeah.

01:08:17Do you all think the

01:08:18Vikings can win the NFC

01:08:19North now with Kirk

01:08:20Cousins?

01:08:21I still say no, but it's

01:08:22not about the Vikings, I

01:08:23think it's about the

01:08:23Bears.

01:08:23I don't think they will,

01:08:24but they could, yeah.

01:08:25They are way more built to

01:08:29win that division today than

01:08:30they were yesterday morning,

01:08:31sure.

01:08:31And I still don't know what

01:08:33to make of the Lions.

01:08:34We wrote them all so early,

01:08:36the defense is getting

01:08:37better.

01:08:38They added, Jared Goff

01:08:40and the offense has been

01:08:40fantastic.

01:08:41Jameer Gibbs might be the

01:08:42best offensive player in

01:08:44the NFL this year, but

01:08:45every time I think about

01:08:46the North, I think about

01:08:47the Bears, I'm like, oh,

01:08:48but look at the Packers

01:08:49have done lately, and the

01:08:50Lions are just like, hey,

01:08:51we're six and two, and

01:08:52I've been kicking ass.

01:08:53The one thing the Vikings

01:08:54have is they have that road

01:08:56win already in the

01:08:57division.

01:08:58They have the win over

01:08:59Chicago.

01:09:00So when they play Chicago

01:09:01again, it's back in

01:09:02Minnesota, right?

01:09:02So that's going to be a

01:09:03big deal going forward.

01:09:05As these teams battle

01:09:06for every inch, that

01:09:08road win they have early

01:09:09in the season against the

01:09:10Bears is going to carry a

01:09:11lot of weight.

01:09:11It's true.

01:09:12Do we think that, like,

01:09:13so Cousins knows the

01:09:14system.

01:09:15He knows his team.

01:09:17Can he step in to Lambeau

01:09:19Sunday against one of the

01:09:20best defenses in the

01:09:21entire league and have

01:09:22immediate success?

01:09:23Or, like you kind of

01:09:25alluded to earlier,

01:09:25Brandon, is it, you

01:09:27know, it might be okay

01:09:28though.

01:09:28It might not be the best

01:09:29the first couple of

01:09:30weeks, but there's runway

01:09:31here to get it figured

01:09:33out.

01:09:33Well, he's certainly

01:09:33going to be miles better

01:09:34than what they were going

01:09:35to put on the field.

01:09:36So, yes, I think they're

01:09:37putting a better team on

01:09:39the field Sunday, but

01:09:39you're asking a lot of

01:09:40anybody, even a very good

01:09:42team, to go into Green

01:09:43Bay and Lambeau and win on

01:09:44Sunday when the season's

01:09:46heating up and the Packers

01:09:47are starting to play at the

01:09:48level they're playing.

01:09:48Well, to that point, like,

01:09:50Jordan Love is an MVP

01:09:51candidate.

01:09:52Yes.

01:09:52Jordan Love has been

01:09:54unbelievable this year.

01:09:55They don't have much of a

01:09:55run game, but they're

01:09:56still scoring points.

01:09:58The Packers just went to

01:09:59New England and destroyed

01:10:00that team.

01:10:02So, for Kirk Cousins, in

01:10:04his first game in this

01:10:05system, obviously, you

01:10:07know, he's been in

01:10:07Minnesota before, but the

01:10:08first game this year where

01:10:09he's being thrown into it

01:10:10and he's probably going to

01:10:11have to keep pace in a

01:10:12shootout, I don't think

01:10:14that's going to be able to

01:10:15work.

01:10:15I mean, very fun matchup.

01:10:17Now, we had the Bills who,

01:10:19you know, statistically best

01:10:20offense in the NFL go

01:10:21against the Vikings, best

01:10:22defense.

01:10:22That was great, but the

01:10:24Vikings lacked such

01:10:26complimentary football.

01:10:27They did feel like the

01:10:28result was kind of

01:10:29forecasting from the

01:10:30beginning.

01:10:31Vastly different this Sunday

01:10:33when you're going to have

01:10:33one of the best offenses and

01:10:34the Packers go against that

01:10:36best defense.

01:10:36Cannot wait.

01:10:37I played Jerry this week.

01:10:38For that matchup.

01:10:39Should be in good shape.

01:10:40Matthew Golden's like a tier

01:10:41one wide receiver, by the

01:10:42way.

01:10:43Him and Christian Watson are

01:10:44pretty damn good.

01:10:45I don't know.

01:10:46They're not dropping the

01:10:46ball.

01:10:47I know Matthew Golden has

01:10:48had some, like, drops in

01:10:49prime time and stuff, but he

01:10:51is open on every play.

01:10:53Should I play Kirk Cousins

01:10:54instead of Bryce Young as my

01:10:55quarterback, too?

01:10:57Evo?

01:10:59We'll talk.

01:11:00We'll talk.

01:11:00Bryce Young's got the

01:11:01Saints.

01:11:02Coming up next, Connor

01:11:03Griffins, Griffins and

01:11:05outs.

01:11:05What are we taking into next

01:11:06week with us?

01:11:07What are we leaving behind?

01:11:09Connor's going to let you

01:11:10know live from Chicago

01:11:12HQ.

01:11:13Happy Veterans Day,

01:11:13everybody.

01:11:15There it is, guys.

01:11:16Help us honor U.S.

01:11:17vets here on this

01:11:17Veterans Day, and thank you

01:11:19to all veterans for their

01:11:20sacrifice and their service

01:11:22to this wonderful country.

01:11:24Now, I apologize to the

01:11:25veterans that I immediately

01:11:26have to go from there to

01:11:29Griffins and outs, but

01:11:30alas, it's just kind of how

01:11:31things broke today, guys.

01:11:33Look at everybody else's

01:11:33team.

01:11:34I mean, usually.

01:11:35T-Bob hypes up this

01:11:36segment.

01:11:37I love Griffins and outs.

01:11:38I just don't know if it has

01:11:39the gravitas.

01:11:40I mean, then again, what

01:11:41are we going to do?

01:11:42The BFW?

01:11:43None of any of those.

01:11:44So, all right, Griffins and

01:11:45outs.

01:11:46Connor, what are we taking

01:11:46into next week with us?

01:11:48Thank you, T-Bob.

01:11:49I like that setup a lot

01:11:50better.

01:11:50First thing that we're

01:11:52taking into next week is

01:11:53we kind of flip the page

01:11:54into this weekend and

01:11:54beyond.

01:11:56Protein.

01:11:57I've got to bulk up, and

01:11:58you see a lot of players in

01:11:59the NBA needing to bulk up.

01:12:01Cooper Flagg has been very

01:12:02much on the record that he

01:12:04needs to bulk up as well.

01:12:05He's trying to add some

01:12:06weight, so he's just in the

01:12:07middle of a game eating

01:12:09PB&Js.

01:12:10You can tell we don't

01:12:10have, we're not confident

01:12:12in our rights to the

01:12:13highlights because we're

01:12:14just showing the peanut

01:12:14butter and jelly sandwich.

01:12:15No, I think that's just

01:12:17the clip.

01:12:17I think it's Cooper Flagg.

01:12:19He's been on a rotation

01:12:21where the Mavs medical and

01:12:23training staff.

01:12:23You think he makes those?

01:12:25No, I think they're making

01:12:26them for him.

01:12:26Oh, they're making them.

01:12:27They're just keeping them

01:12:28on a steady diet of PB&J.

01:12:29And these are not like

01:12:32small store-bought PB&Js.

01:12:33These are handmade.

01:12:35I think they're double-breaded,

01:12:37fully stuffed.

01:12:37I just like the idea of

01:12:39Cooper Flagg's mom making

01:12:41them in the morning, and

01:12:42they're like, he's, Mom,

01:12:43I'm leaving.

01:12:44Don't forget your PB&Js.

01:12:46No, there's something

01:12:47wonderfully old school in

01:12:48this day and age of like

01:12:50macros and protein

01:12:52maximization that when

01:12:53Cooper Flagg, they're like,

01:12:54hey, eat some peanut butter

01:12:56and jellies and drink some

01:12:57milk.

01:12:57You'll be good.

01:12:58You go and put it on.

01:12:59This might need to be,

01:13:01we might need to talk about

01:13:02what the protein contents,

01:13:04by the way, of a PB&Js.

01:13:05I don't think you're very

01:13:06familiar with them.

01:13:07Well, it's protein, it's carbs,

01:13:08it's sugar.

01:13:09It's not really protein.

01:13:10It's more carbohydrates.

01:13:12There's actually been a lot

01:13:13of studies about how

01:13:14carbohydrates affect the

01:13:15human body and long

01:13:16distance running, so it's

01:13:17actually very healthy for

01:13:18you while you're running

01:13:19to get the, you know, the

01:13:20gel packs and stuff like

01:13:21that.

01:13:21What's up?

01:13:24He says he needs to put

01:13:25on weight.

01:13:26Yeah.

01:13:26He's one of the 10 best

01:13:27players in the league

01:13:28right now.

01:13:29Yeah.

01:13:29Why does he need to put

01:13:30on weight?

01:13:30He's an awesome basketball

01:13:31player.

01:13:31But that's the thing.

01:13:33He's 19.

01:13:33He's an incredible

01:13:34basketball player.

01:13:35He's 19 years old, and

01:13:36he's still like slamming

01:13:37PB&Js.

01:13:37He's literally, he's a kid

01:13:38almost.

01:13:39He's a growing boy.

01:13:40And he's still this good,

01:13:41and he's only going to get

01:13:42better, and that's why

01:13:43they got to keep feeding

01:13:44them.

01:13:44Yeah, they traded the

01:13:45last guy who got too fat

01:13:46in Dallas.

01:13:46Exactly.

01:13:47Now they're force-feeding

01:13:47this guy.

01:13:48Also, Ivo, I've never had

01:13:49a PB&J before in my life,

01:13:51so maybe I am a little

01:13:51bit off.

01:13:53Moving on.

01:13:53I should say I am the

01:13:54exact same way.

01:13:55I've never had a PB&J.

01:13:57You've never had a

01:13:57peanut butter jelly.

01:13:58Oh.

01:13:58I had bologna sandwiches

01:14:00and ham and cheese

01:14:00sandwiches.

01:14:00Yep.

01:14:01I never had, I never

01:14:01had, I'm not a big

01:14:03peanut butter out of the

01:14:04jar guy.

01:14:04You're the number one

01:14:05PB&J guy, like, in the

01:14:07world.

01:14:07Moving on, we are out on

01:14:10cheating.

01:14:11Cheating, not good.

01:14:12Now, wait a minute.

01:14:13Yeah, I just had to

01:14:14address this because last

01:14:15night in Maction, you saw

01:14:17Miami of Ohio try and

01:14:20confuse the Ohio kicker at

01:14:23the end of the half where

01:14:25Ohio's trying to attempt a

01:14:26field goal, and the Miami

01:14:27of Ohio video board guy

01:14:29puts up three different

01:14:30field goal uprights on the

01:14:32video board right behind the

01:14:33actual set of field goal

01:14:34uprights.

01:14:35You can't be doing that.

01:14:36Who decided that was

01:14:37cheating?

01:14:38It's a rule.

01:14:39Is it?

01:14:39Yes.

01:14:40When did they make that

01:14:40rule?

01:14:41I'd like to see where it's

01:14:42codified.

01:14:43It's in a handbook

01:14:44somewhere.

01:14:45There are other.

01:14:45Didn't we give credit to

01:14:46some teams there?

01:14:47Yeah, there are other.

01:14:48We did a bit on this show,

01:14:49yeah, where we looked at

01:14:50distracting things.

01:14:52I almost think you did

01:14:53an ins and outs about it.

01:14:55It might have been, but

01:14:56I'm okay with gamesmanship.

01:14:58This is gamesmanship.

01:14:59No, this is not games.

01:15:00This is outrageous.

01:15:01I'm almost certain you did

01:15:02ins and outs where you

01:15:03said this was in.

01:15:04No, because the Patriots did

01:15:05it earlier in the year or

01:15:07something.

01:15:07To gain advantages, but

01:15:08they didn't do a straight.

01:15:09Oh, they would put a live

01:15:11shot, but the reverse angle

01:15:13of the field goal, is that

01:15:14what it was?

01:15:14Yes.

01:15:15So maybe that was their

01:15:16excuse.

01:15:17It wasn't just, this is

01:15:18maybe just a little too

01:15:18blatant.

01:15:19You got to cheat with a

01:15:20little more tact.

01:15:21Yes.

01:15:22And I think that is my, my

01:15:24main gripe here.

01:15:24Hey, listen, if you ain't

01:15:25cheating, you ain't trying.

01:15:27They, they tried here.

01:15:28They got caught and

01:15:28that's cheating.

01:15:29Shout out to the Mac

01:15:30refs.

01:15:30Yes.

01:15:31So anyway, I'm out on

01:15:32cheating, but that's

01:15:33matching.

01:15:34Perfect matching.

01:15:35I am very much in on

01:15:36chivalry though.

01:15:37Chivalry is not dead.

01:15:39The opposite of cheating.

01:15:40Exactly.

01:15:40And sticking with college

01:15:41football, you had Shane

01:15:43Beamer, who is with his,

01:15:44his wife in the locker room.

01:15:45The whole team is serenading

01:15:47her to a Rod Wave song.

01:15:49And they're all saying it was

01:15:50all for you right there.

01:15:52And they're pointing, it was

01:15:52all for you.

01:15:53Oh, I love this video.

01:15:55We can't play the music, but it

01:15:57was incredible to see Shane

01:15:59Beamer's wife just soaking it

01:16:01all in as the team gets a big

01:16:02win and they're just singing

01:16:05to her.

01:16:05Brandon, is there a greater

01:16:07example of the shifting winds

01:16:10of fate that a single football

01:16:12season can bring than Shane

01:16:13Beamer's life right now?

01:16:14No.

01:16:15I mean, a few years ago, a few

01:16:17weeks ago, Dylan Stewart's

01:16:19walking off the field, ignoring

01:16:20him.

01:16:21He was fired.

01:16:21He's fired.

01:16:22He's looking like he's, he's

01:16:24just absolutely dejected.

01:16:26And now look at our guy

01:16:27serenading the wife with the

01:16:29entire team, having fun, winning

01:16:30multiple games in a row.

01:16:32That's why I like football.

01:16:34And that's why don't get mad

01:16:36when we talk bad, because when

01:16:37you win, we crown you.

01:16:40And yes, this is a subtweet to

01:16:41LSU pooping Texas ass this

01:16:43weekend, dude.

01:16:44Let's go.

01:16:45You're back in already.

01:16:46Oh, I'm fully back.

01:16:47I processed.

01:16:48We're going to beat down Texas

01:16:50this weekend in Death Valley.

01:16:51Going to go to Tennessee, win

01:16:52that game as well.

01:16:53Lane Kiven's going to shove it

01:16:54out.

01:16:54This is what it takes to be the

01:16:56villain.

01:16:56That's what Lane said when he

01:16:58wrote that eight-page memo to

01:17:00put up in the LSU football

01:17:01ops.

01:17:02T-Bob, I hate to say this, but I

01:17:04think you're getting carried

01:17:05away.

01:17:05What do you mean?

01:17:06And my next out is getting

01:17:08carried away.

01:17:09There are some times on a

01:17:10football field where you could

01:17:12be celebrating, you could be

01:17:13having a good time.

01:17:14Do we have the audio?

01:17:15Can we play what happened in the

01:17:16Cowboys game where there was a

01:17:18touchdown scored and then this

01:17:19happens with somebody running

01:17:21out onto the field?

01:17:22The ruling on the field is a

01:17:23fumble recovered by the Cowboys.

01:17:25That play has been confirmed

01:17:27after the play in sportsmanlike

01:17:29conduct by Dallas.

01:17:31We had a non-uniform player in

01:17:32the blue sweatshirt.

01:17:34He's got that.

01:17:34Come onto the field to celebrate.

01:17:36That's a 15-yard penalty.

01:17:38It's first and 10.

01:17:40Time out.

01:17:41Why do you have to give a

01:17:42description of running out there?

01:17:43Yeah, I just love the

01:17:44description.

01:17:44Sorry, it wasn't a touch.

01:17:45It was a fumble recovery.

01:17:46You have to Marvian Hoverstone

01:17:48runs onto the field with the

01:17:49team as he's not playing.

01:17:51He's in warm-up clothes and I

01:17:53just love the description from

01:17:54the referee.

01:17:55Can't get carried away like

01:17:56that.

01:17:57You got to know.

01:17:57Can't even be a team guy

01:17:58anymore, you know?

01:17:59Celebrate on the sidelines.

01:18:01Celebrate with the boy.

01:18:01No, that's pretty crazy.

01:18:02Should have been a cowboy.

01:18:03Yeah, I've never seen anything

01:18:04like that.

01:18:04What'd you say, Cody?

01:18:05Should have been a cowboy.

01:18:06Yeah, exactly.

01:18:08See, I just thought that was a

01:18:09very funny moment.

01:18:09If anything, this was cowboy.

01:18:11Take me away.

01:18:12If you had saved that one

01:18:14earlier, you would have had it

01:18:14here.

01:18:15Messamaker's going to win the

01:18:16Heisman.

01:18:16Counter continues.

01:18:17Thank you, Cody.

01:18:18I just love the description

01:18:19by the ref right there.

01:18:20I never heard that.

01:18:21Speaking of running on

01:18:22fields, I am very much in on

01:18:25juke moves.

01:18:26I brought a Corgi video either

01:18:27last week or a couple weeks

01:18:28ago.

01:18:29We got another one.

01:18:30We have not seen good juke

01:18:31moves in college football,

01:18:33pro football, anything in a

01:18:34while.

01:18:34Stop.

01:18:34This is a good juke move by

01:18:35the Corgi.

01:18:36Multiple.

01:18:37They're throwing.

01:18:38The tacklers are throwing

01:18:39this.

01:18:39The tacklers are not trying to

01:18:41actually catch the Corgi.

01:18:42They're trying to look like

01:18:43they've been juke.

01:18:44Well, it's a work.

01:18:45It's a work.

01:18:46It's a work.

01:18:47It's a work, guys.

01:18:48I don't know.

01:18:49But also, like, you don't

01:18:51want to, like, dive on the

01:18:52Corgi and kill it.

01:18:53No, it's a work.

01:18:54They're approaching it with

01:18:55a little delicacy.

01:18:56Like, would you just jump on

01:18:57that Corgi with all your

01:18:58might and effort?

01:18:59Is that how they use the

01:19:00word delicacy?

01:19:01I'm just saying.

01:19:03Like, what if you dive on it

01:19:05and then you just kill it?

01:19:07You're not going to crush the

01:19:08Corgi.

01:19:08I think you could.

01:19:09Lift this dead Corgi body

01:19:10off the field.

01:19:10I don't think you can crush

01:19:11a Corgi by jumping on it.

01:19:12There was another angle

01:19:13from, like, the broadcast

01:19:14that I do think shows you

01:19:18that they were putting in

01:19:18more effort than it looks

01:19:19like from the wide angle.

01:19:21No, they're not.

01:19:22They're hamming it up here.

01:19:23I think they were trying

01:19:24to catch this Corgi.

01:19:25This Corgi is just going

01:19:26100 miles an hour and is

01:19:28juking everybody out of

01:19:29their shoes.

01:19:30And I think it's great.

01:19:30When was the last time you

01:19:31saw a great, like, juke move

01:19:33in football?

01:19:35I can't.

01:19:35There's not one that comes

01:19:36to mind where I was like,

01:19:37oh, my goodness, that's one

01:19:38of the best.

01:19:38Last night in 2047,

01:19:40Dynasty, DeMarco Cheeseman,

01:19:41my five-star freshman.

01:19:43Unbelievable.

01:19:44DeMarco Cheeseman.

01:19:44There you go.

01:19:45I will say the Corgi,

01:19:47very representative of,

01:19:48like, a workman running

01:19:50back there.

01:19:51Not high top-end speed,

01:19:53great side-to-side.

01:19:54He can bang through the

01:19:55tackles.

01:19:55Full work.

01:19:56Get north and south.

01:19:57Yeah.

01:19:58Well, obviously, T-Bob,

01:19:59that was in Carolina.

01:20:01And I want to talk about,

01:20:03for my last out,

01:20:05another former Carolina

01:20:07head coach,

01:20:08don't do Carolina.

01:20:10I know there are a bunch

01:20:11of country songs you could

01:20:12do with that.

01:20:12But I'm talking about Matt

01:20:15Rule, and I am very much

01:20:17out on coach cameos.

01:20:19Because I know you're

01:20:20wearing the Nebraska

01:20:22pullover.

01:20:23Yeah.

01:20:23Zip up right there.

01:20:24Oh, this is.

01:20:25Matt Rule has not won

01:20:27a game at Nebraska

01:20:29since he cameoed

01:20:30in the show Lanterns.

01:20:32Bobby.

01:20:32And I also believe,

01:20:33I read a report last night,

01:20:35I don't know if it's

01:20:35confirmed,

01:20:37is Lanterns.

01:20:38Yeah, it's canceled.

01:20:39It's canceled.

01:20:40Insane move to cancel

01:20:41that show.

01:20:41It's like the most

01:20:42watched show that HBO Max

01:20:44has ever done.

01:20:44How people love that show.

01:20:45They did.

01:20:46It's like the most

01:20:46watched show that HBO Max

01:20:47has ever had.

01:20:47Why are they canceling it?

01:20:48Because they got rid of,

01:20:50James Gunn was brought in

01:20:51to lead the DC Universe

01:20:52four years later.

01:20:53They're now saying,

01:20:54James Gunn, you're out.

01:20:56And now there's this

01:20:56weird revisionist history

01:20:58that everything that

01:20:58James Gunn has done

01:20:59has sucked,

01:21:00which is crazy.

01:21:01Because the Superman movie

01:21:02was awesome.

01:21:04The Peacemaker show

01:21:05was very funny.

01:21:07But you know what,

01:21:08though?

01:21:10I don't 1,000% mind

01:21:12that Lanterns

01:21:12was canceled

01:21:13because we'll always

01:21:15have season one.

01:21:15It was a good season.

01:21:16It was a good

01:21:17self-contained story.

01:21:19And we'll always have that.

01:21:21At least it got made.

01:21:22And at least we got

01:21:24to see it.

01:21:25But Matt Ruhle

01:21:26made that cameo.

01:21:27Yeah.

01:21:28Ever since,

01:21:28it has not been that great.
