00:00And we've got Heismanauts coming out here, Tim.
00:03And you look at this.
00:05Trinidad Chambliss didn't play all that well.
00:08You know, Darian Mensah played okay.
00:10Tony's going to be out for the remainder of the regular season.
00:13And people are thinking, well, Jeremiah Smith at Ohio State is done.
00:16He's cooked.
00:16They lost the game.
00:18What are they playing for?
00:18He still had over 130 yards, touchdown, number of catches.
00:22And C.J. Carr's odds after the game, he was getting plus 150.
00:25He had Mensah sitting there like around plus 270, plus 260.
00:30I think Jeremiah Smith was right around his odds.
00:33Those are the three.
00:34And then it's like a cataclysmic drop.
00:36Yep.
00:36Always, I have this page loaded on my computer because I want to see where it is.
00:40I flip on it today.
00:42And Jeremiah Smith is now back to being the odds on favorite at plus 200, plus 190.
00:48He's basically flipped with C.J. Carr.
00:51Explain that to me, how there is that much movement in a two- or three-day span
00:55when no injuries, no games being played, and all of a sudden now two guys who honestly
01:02probably aren't even going to play the final week that you're eligible to vote
01:07in the conference championship weekend, and there's a ton of movement.
01:11So I have the answer for you.
01:13And the Athletic put out a straw poll, I want to say on Tuesday or Wednesday,
01:19and they had 22 of their reporters, and I don't know how many of them are Heisman voters,
01:25but I think it gives it a good read of where voters are at right now.
01:33And 16 of the 22 voted Jeremiah Smith to win the Heisman Trophy right now.
01:38So I think that's why we saw this shift in the odds.
01:41And look, you guys know me.
01:43I'm a Notre Dame fan.
01:43I was at the game on Saturday.
01:45I thought C.J. Carr played the best game of his life against Miami.
01:48Miami, he should not be the Heisman favorite.
01:50His numbers are very, very good.
01:52Are they Heisman good?
01:54I don't know.
01:5521 over 1.
01:57I mean, he's been awesome, but he doesn't have eye-popping numbers.
02:01And, you know, he wasn't even in the top 10 of the straw poll last week,
02:07and now he's number 2.
02:08So are we overrating one moment?
02:12Because that moment that C.J. Carr had came on November 7th,
02:16not December whatever championship weekend is, right?
02:19So I actually did make a Heisman bet this week.
02:23I've got, from the preseason, as we discussed, Lincoln Keenholz.
02:26We love him, but not going to happen.
02:28I do have Devin Dampere at 90-1.
02:31Maybe a little bit of hope out there.
02:33We'll see.
02:33They got a tricky one this weekend against Arizona.
02:36I have Keelan Russell at 26-1, and that's kind of where he is right now
02:40in that ballpark of Alabama.
02:42And I bet Darian Mensah, man.
02:44I came away from Saturday, especially in that second half, guys,
02:49really impressed by Mensah.
02:51Notre Dame threw a ton of pressure his way.
02:55This Miami offensive line is not what it was a year ago,
02:58and I thought the plays he was making and the comfort zone that he got into
03:03in that second half was really darn impressive.
03:06And for Miami, you know, you don't have Malachi Tony anymore,
03:10and I think that helps him from the Heisman standpoint.
03:12If they run the table from here on out and they beat Duke this weekend
03:16and they take care of business against either Wake or SMU,
03:20whoever it may be in the ACC championship game.
03:22That's been like doing the same.
03:22I believe it19-921-3850 is it?
