that we had the opportunity to show what. we are about now make sure we keep our. priorities straight because it only. matters about us not the lights not the. cameras not the action it's about the. action it's about our individual action. and going out there and playing our best. football tonight in front of everybody. that's a powerful testimony all right. let's go get it family on three 1 2 3. hey let's.

[Applause]. life hello beautiful people and welcome.

jump happening on this Feelgood Friday. November 22nd 2024 pum Starts Now. football football it is absolutely. wonderful AJ Hawk and I are live from. the Horseshoe over here in Columbus. there's a little bit of sleep there's a. little bit of snow they say it feels. like it's 25 degrees outside but I feel. alive because it's not just me here on. this great Feelgood Friday normally the. man who is back in Indianapolis in the. Thunderdome Manning my seat hosting the. program is right next to me ladies and.

gentlemen the all-time leading tackler. for the Green Bay Packers allamerican. here at Ohio State AJ Hawk AJ how you. doing B feels good man feels good to be. here at the bottom of this tunnel got a. big game tomorrow we got some sleeing. rain it feels almost like we're in. Cleveland yeah uh bottom of the tunnel. the tunnel was a place that was uh. chosen for this particular program. because uh we knew it was going to rain. and uh I thought for sure that meant. that uh we would be covered but we are. not covered uh all the tech is covered. we are outside we are at the end of it. because the echo in the tunnel cuz it is. tight quars here the echo in the tunnel.

was a little bit too wild so we get a. chance to take on Ohio as tomorrow the. Indiana University whoer football team. will step foot on this field and try to. do battle against the entire state of. Ohio with college football playoff. implications and precedence on the line. AJ that line goes from 13 and 1 12 at. one point to 10 and A2 I think it even. hit 10 at some sports books ESPN bet has. it at 10 and A2 what happened what is. going on what is the news that we don't. know about why three points just David.

Copperfield vanish over a week for this. big time game well I would assume. obviously Ohio State losing our. allamerican Center has something to do. with that line right no that that. happened this morning that that that. line moved OB what's going on man what. do these people know that we don't know. well let's go back to this Thunder Dome. to one half of the. hammer Cowboys AP tone tone movement. like this what does this indicate I tell. you what I did a lot of research on it. this morning AJ's right about the injury. but that injury happened earlier in the. week in in the movie didn't happen until.

you know all of yesterday uh the money. is on Indiana 60% but normally just. normally 60% wouldn't cause a. three-point uh line swing now it has. gone back up to 10 and half 11 at some. places uh so to be honest I I don't know. I don't know if there's some huge money. betters coming in on Indiana uh but no. 60% of the public is on Indiana was the. only thing that I could I could. potentially think of little diddy. [Applause]. mamp might be the betting man he might.

have put the big money on Indiana. obviously pulling for the Bloomington. boys coming in here to Columbus uh let's. go to the toxic table at Boston Connor. and at Tai Schmidt con man I'll start. with you buddy uh do you feel in Indiana. University who your upset here in. Columbus this weekend because if it does. all chaos is going to break loose in. college football look if I'm the buck. guys I'm worried first of all losing the. center is huge and we've talked about. that D lineman camra he's problem he's.

got like nine and a half sacks losing. the the stalwart Center that's been a. stud AQ Chipley said you know he's going. to win the Remington if you're losing. one of your best players one of your. best players on the offensive line. especially that's a massive loss and. look at the weather you guys are dealing. with over there sleep rain there might. be some snow this is going to be one in. the trenches You could argue so losing. the best guy for the Buckeyes I'd be. worried if I'm AJ Hawk I'm shating my. pants right now I'm I'm staring down the. fact that I have to look at Ohio in the. face and tell them yeah there Indiana is.

no longer a basketball school we got to. remember that for next year and we might. have to remember that again in the. playoffs because what happens if this. becomes a rematch in the quarterfinals. you know in in the semifinals and then. Indiana beats Ohio state twice what are. they going to do Ohio might burn down so. I I'm worried about the 10 and a half. now it it creeping back up to 11 might. suggest that oh okay some shark put a. ton of money on Indiana 13 and a half so. that they could kind of change that line. then they put even more money on Ohio. State at 10 but I I mean that's neither.

here nor there I I think this is gonna. be a very close game and with that rain. and that Center being out I genuinely. feel like the Buckeyes are shaking in. their boots a little bit right now they. might be shaking in their boots because. it's uh so damn cold let's let's talk. about being cold in Ohio in football. weather in Ohio last night AJ Hawk we. saw an instant Classic on Thursday night. football AFC North football through and. through there's music now starting to. play somewhere sound.

I have no idea it is a wonderful thing. but on Thursday Night Football in a. snowstorm in a what are those things. called snow globe snow globe it look. like snow globe did actually the. Cleveland Browns led by jamus Winston. who kicked off our show with one of his. most inspirational speeches yet it's not. about the lights it's not about the. camera it's not about the action but but. actually it is about the action so I. think maybe he had a little slip up. there but the boys had a great time in. the snow and I'll tell you what miles.

Garrett just lit it up miles Garrett. decided he was going to take over the. game and obviously there had been a lot. of hype about miles Garrett TJ watt who. won defensive player of the year last. year how happy was the other person that. the other person won defensive player of. the year last year and I had a chance to. watch this guy take over a game last. year in the loudhouse once it starts it. seemingly doesn't stop once he senses a. little blood into water that neon. mentality and shark of Miles Garrett is. going to hunt out there and uh that was. fun to watch if you're a fan of old.

school football if you're a Pittsburgh. Steeler fan though I think you have to. worry Russ has a big night okay I think. he only had like six incompletions he. started the game perfect 8 to8 or 7 to. seven I think you had some Splash plays. from a lot of your offensive players but. in the end you lose to a 3 and8. Cleveland Brown team and a snowstorm. which you might have to do later in the. year especially if Buffalo is going to. have a home playoff game or Kansas City. is going to have to have a home playoff. game we all thought the Steelers recover. three and a half we both did we thought. it was a different year seems like it's. maybe is this the same old Steelers is.

that what is that what the thought is. after last Ian I see if you saw look. Russell stats 21 to 28 for 270 yards in. a touchdown if we told you that before. the game you're thinking Steelers. absolutely rolled and this is an offense. that we know AQ Shipley does not like. very much either the offensive line yeah. yeah he doesn't love the offensive line. but this Steelers team I don't know like. you always want to be explosive you want. to get players up the top which they do. though like the Steelers have done that. but for whatever reason the be or the. Browns in this crazy white like is was. this one of those like Destiny things. like hey the Browns got to win because. now I guess their owners are potentially.

pissed that everyone loves the outdoor. snow because they want to build a dome. somewhere else thinking we definitely. can't do that now because this was like. a majestic night when they have the AI. Sidelines that act like they are they. have plowed the hashes and the yard. lines which makes it kind of weird. because guy's legs disappear at times so. AJ AJ's first thing he said to me when I. asked him if he saw the entire game last. night he said I did and I don't know if. I like the fake yard lines because guys. are losing their legs now you just saw. the guy's legs disappear but it was nice.

to be able to see the yardages and one. of these games is in Steve Sable you. think of whenever you see like the lambo. the frozen tundra the old school. football is immediately what you think. of these games I as a former punter am a. massive proponent of Dome and everywhere. okay Dome at all let's have 70° no wind. perfect conditions best team wins that. is what how I've always talked about. I've always believed that way and if. they were to do that I would not mind. but if you're a Cleveland Browns fan and.

I know the conversation has been very. very loud about getting a dome as. opposed to having this you you view that. as an advantage even against the. Pittsburgh Steelers You' shirtless. clevelanders all over the stadium drunk. as hell having a time of their life you. view that as an advantage so congrats to. the Browns on getting a big win and if. you're a Pittsburgh Steelers fan do you. just bury the ball and say hey it was a. wild crazy snowy Thursday night AP tone. how are you guys viewing this entire. thing it was I mean I we talked about it. yesterday yesterday we almost knew this.

was going to happen as a Steelers fan. based on their Thursday night football. record their divisional record their. record after playing the Ravens. especially on a short week and then they. came out and it was just a myriad of. mistakes from start to finish it was. just if in good news and we are going to. bury the ball and bury the tape because. it was literally the worst game they. could have possibly played they couldn't. convert on third and fourth down they. down she Lise two two I mean it started. on the first drive just like the sack to.

put it a 58 yard field goal for BOS. which oh he missed obviously and then. drive two Fields comes out and they have. absolutely no idea what they're doing. you have offensive lineman running off. the field you have offensive lineman. running on the field they snap the ball. with one one second left on the on the. clock so the defense has obviously knows. when it's going to happen they get blown. up the next Drive fourth they get the. sack strip from Miles Garrett in the. second half they get blown up on fourth. down again it was just mistake after.

mistake after mistake and then you get. the touchdown G out tough G out Tough by. Cleveland BR that's how it is we watch. two different games on that we did not. get out toughed I can tell you that. fourth Downs on. Fourth right what four fourth down you. guys were getting you guys were getting. your [ __ ] well on the one fourth down. the hole was wide open and Justin just. didn't went went the other way on the. other fourth down yes it did get blown. up in the backfield I agree there but I. was just you can't play you couldn't. couldn't play they could not have played.

worse and. then they could. have on paper it look all right they. could not they could not I saw some good. Russ was completing bows in the middle. of the snow like this guy's throwing. lasers I thought they had I actually. thought there was a chance defense was. going to get a turnover late maybe a. pick six maybe a scoid score we're going. to cover this thing we're no but I. thought late late I thought we were. going to cover I'm like watching I'm. like you should be happy tone Steelers. are going to make this whole thing. happen it's like I thought they played. good inevitably you still lose they get.

this they get this they go three and out. and then corus waitman who's been. unbelievable all year has a 15 yard punt. so just all areas just terrible that. side of the foot I know they said that. during that just it can just go off the. side of your foot yeah so it happened. earlier in the game too so uh we don't. have a football here but if you're so. whenever you're punting both of the guys. last night Lefty so whenever you're. punting the ball okay obviously you. catch the snap you're holding it there. is a moment of Free Fall see that yep. before once it leaves your hand before. it hits your foot windy game during that.

Free Fall that ball just blows just a. little bit just gets a little bit off to. goes Center boom can't catch up to it. hits off the inside of your foot that. thing's going that way that's possible. every single punt which is why whenever. you see punters bomb balls their thing. because there's a moment of freef fall. with the ball so do you drop it a little. lower when it's windy hold on to it. longer is normally the goal bring it. bring it to your foot yeah hold on to it. longer yeah so actually um if we want to. get really deep into the pting game I uh.

I I tried to hold on to the ball as long. as I possibly could towards the end of. my career okay now whenever you hold. that you got to drop a little bit lower. because you hold on to it a little. longer you got to go ball to foot almost. as opposed to foot the ball so you're. going to give up like a 0 punt you're. going to give up like the big because. you're not going to be able to so I'm. trying to kick that thing out of my hand. got to lower it a little bit so that. means more would be more consistent much. more consistent so your Miss isn't a. yeah you want to take that Miss out of. the game out of your game yeah you. eliminate the Miss completely is what I.

decided to do and a lot of ogs do but. you lose like the big one and also hting. in this weather both guys had a. situation it was miserable I had a. terrible game in Cleveland as well even. whenever I was holding on to the ball. because that moment of free even if you. try to go foot the ball there's still a. moment where that ball is just falling. through the sky and if you just get a. little and it's it's all off and uh it's. not fun I assume every specialist is. excited to be out of that game last. night but it's one of those ones that's. historic now what does this mean for the. rest of the season you know for the.

Pittsburgh Steelers what does this mean. for the rest of the season for the. Cleveland Browns The Miz sent me a text. uhoh this morning The Miz sent me a text. this morning I believe we have his quote. hopefully on a graphic card um really. good work on that debone easy to read. there uh before. game uh your thought is if we lose out. we could get shador after the game we. are not mathematically out of the. playoffs that was the text I got from. them is this morning and uh I assume.

that's how all Browns fans are feeling. especially after beating the Steelers. you you beat the Steelers that's a huge. win at home in prime time in front of. the whole world so I don't know all that. needs to happen for the Browns to. actually make the playoffs but it does. kind of feel like a Monumental win like. where were you when the Browns beat the. Steelers in that crazy snow game on. Thursday night yeah going to get. reference I think Prime will probably. showcase that game and all their. commercials going forward because it. just doesn't happen often you know that. was a full I mean it looked like your. TV's stuck you know at one point you.

couldn't see [ __ ] that's that's in the. modern era that we're in with how good. technology is like I don't know if you. can see from these cameras it's coming. down really good right now oh yeah it is. coming down really we're having to cover. this stuff we might have it a full. electrical failure over here with how. hard it is raining but with cameras you. can't really see it much anymore yeah. snow was just so thick you had to see it. they had to deal with it couldn't see. the field goal going through this is a. historic game in the football's history. even like you remember Shady McCoy. remember yeah you you remember these. games these are the type of games you.

remember and if you're the Cleveland. Browns you're happy that you're on the. right side of it even though the. Steelers certainly could have won it. yeah did you ever play like in any of. these games this made me think of 2007 I. believe playoff game against the Seattle. Seahawks we had it might have been a. different year when I was in Green Bay. and we had a crazy game where like the. last three quarters it looked like this. and the whole place it was one of those. times where it snows and it actually. feels warm you know there's no wind it's. snowing and you looked around like this. is like a magical experience and that's. what I felt watching this game last last. night and the fact that the Browns had.

so many fans there too that stuck it out. was pretty impressive a lot of people. dressed like seats early in that game uh. it seemed like up in the uh top row two. and8 team Thursday night football but. they didn't filled up and the weather. got wor and they stayed and I think it's. because of how good the game was and. shout out to jamus Winston his first. ever game and that cold a temperature. and all the speeches he gave last night. obviously we just showc his showcased. his lights camera action speech but the. horses are ready for war Conor but but. but the Lord will will Le but we are the. Lord or the Lord will take us I don't.

know everything he says is electric like. that game just talking about that was my. favorite game of the year something. about football in the snow for one and. then also being in Indiana having a nice. little flurry on the ground as well you. look outside there's snow you look on. the TV there's snow and you can barely. see it and just the physicality of it. you know some of those games we talk. about you want points you want all that. stuff but having miles Garrett having TJ. watt having cam Hayward kind of going to. war in the middle of field is so fun and.

to your point about the snow games for. New England Patriots fans obviously six. Super Bowls over the belich Brady era. the vinary gamewinner against Oakland in. the playoffs I would argue is ranked. even above like the last Ram Super Bowl. where it was 13 to3 kind of like a punt. war between Ryan Allen and Hecker that. snow game kind of feel to it it it's. just different and for jamus Winston. like he him even post game after just. talking about the entire thing at his. press conference the the way his brain. works is so awesome cuz he was on the.

night cap and they actually like went. through all of his pregame speeches and. he was laughing watching them himself. like even he realizes like what what. what the hell was I talking about right. there like the lights camera action [ __ ]. it is so funny jamus needs to be you. know playing football forever of course. but can you imagine what that guy will. bring to like a booth If he if he were. decide to call a g i mean the the. electricity is endless when it comes to. jamus Winston and yeah of course doing.

snow angels with all the guys it's so. fun and zany and then Tony Gonzalez. unfortunately though he he did not jump. in with the entire crew but there's just. something about snow football it's. different it's better Tony's wearing you. know Full Medal or full winner jacket uh. like in September some you know October. he's not doing snow angels yeah he he is. not in there I like the fact that he did. do a snow angel face Don I uh this guy's. never been around. never done it before I think he looked.

over at Whit hey whit was like flip over. flip over there it's uh jamus is fun man. he is he's super positive obviously he. hasn't been like a perfect football. player in the NFL since making it but. the way he views life the way he talks. about things and uh what he was saying. anytime a microphone was in front of his. face last night in Prime Time football. needed that we need just how he was. looking when he the the pregame when he. was just taking the whole everything in. like it it felt very like authentic it.

felt like original this you couldn't I. don't think you could act like you weren. if this is one who you were you have. said you don't become a brown until you. beat the Steelers what will it take. tonight good question the horse is. prepared for battle but Victory comes. from the Lord Bo so I'm depending on the. Lord it take is that the message to the. team day by day one play at a time. that's the message weather conditions. tonight we're expecting wins up to 15. milph in a wintry mix how will that.

impact your ability to throw the ball. yeah yeah it is I'm so happy and. grateful that the Lord has blessed me to. play in some snow to be in true football. weather in Cleveland Ohio at Huntington. Bank field today to get him the glory. it's a beautiful day sure it feels like. you're playing in the AFC North it is. it's thank you great interview by Kaye. what a response there by jamus just hey. what's your mindset on everything you. know like um I think Tom Brady is talked. multiple times about when they're in a.

situation what his mindset is how he. asked to view something like when they. were down 283 I think the way he viewed. it was an opportunity to do something. that was special when most people would. say we're out it's all in your mindset. and your framing for jamus he had heard. everybody talking about hey this the. first time you're were going to play in. cold you could tell that he had. rehearsed that thought whenever she. started asking that question he's. like good question everybody wants to. know I am so lucky that I get to. experience this and I'm going to have. this on my resume forever what a. beautiful what a beautiful football game.

football weather with that being said if. it was in a dome I think it'd be a good. game too you think yeah I think it would. have been a good game too we wouldn't. have had the electricity of the snow and. uh miles Garrett's interview afterwards. whenever was the snow around them you. know and they're all celebrating and he. said uh I got a lot of respect for the. guy on the other side TJ I got a lot of. respect for all the edge rushers yeah. here it is here's what miles Garrett had. to say afterwards about the game he just. put on still makes it better and if so. what was said I mean smoke of the coin.

toss uh but that's about it know like I. said I got a lot of respect for him a. lot of respect for know all the guys. over there and you know the edge rush in. the league but I'm number one and no. that's from Ed Edge defendent one Edge. one to defensive player of the year I'm. I'm the guy so that runs through me. there's there's no other another other. person being defended as I am or skied. or playing against like I am so just. goes to show no you can throw it out the. window I'm going to find a way that's.

Neo brother I am the one how' you feel. about that AJ I mean I guess he's got an. argument there you can't really argue. with him when you talk about like Elite. Edge rushers but yeah we know like miles. Garrett's awesome TJ watt is awesome. they both can be amazing right yeah but. miles Garrett but there's this whole. thing now though between them twoo as. there should which I appreciate and I. respect you know a lot of people hang. out have a good time and I think the. watt family came out and said we got a. lot of respect for Miles Garrett over. here JJ said Jade said that on Wednesday. about the whole thing but I like the.

fact that they're not like buddy buddy. you know I like that they are competing. and I like the fact that he appreciates. that hey I'm the top guy and teach. thinks the exact same thing I like that. I I think it's awesome any kind of like. rivalry in the NFL is great but this is. also something that would be cool they. can duke it out for how many more years. in the NFL and then 15 years from now. they're going to be buddies probably. running camps teaching hey you want to. wck shop like we did here we go and just. making all the money in the world while. running the camp we are being joined by.

gets benched uhhuh then he's playing. scout team. safety in like a one-day period Then he. gives one of the greatest speeches I've. ever seen two fans from a player. legitimately you could tell he took real. time on that the words were phenomenal I. think took a lot of accountability took. a lot of ownership here's Daniel Jones. uh who has now been released from the. New York football Giants addressing the. New York Giants fans just yesterday all. right wrote something down just to make. sure I said say the right way um let's.

see the opportunity to play for the New. York Giants was truly a dream come true. and I'm extremely grateful to the mayor. and Tish families for the chance to play. here the Giants are truly a first class. organization and I have nothing but. genuine respect and appreciation for the. people who have built it and who helped. carry on that tradition I've met so many. special people and created relationships. that will truly last a lifetime thank. you to all my teammates coaches and. staff that have done so much for me. these past six years. there have been some great times but of.

course we all wish there had been more. of those I take full responsibility for. my part and not bringing more wins no. one wanted to win those uh win more. games worse than me and I gave. everything I had on the field and in my. preparation of course this season uh has. been disappointing for all and of course. I wish I could have done more I'm 100%. accountable for my part I did not play. well I did not play well enough. consistently enough to help the team get. the results. the reality uh the reality of the NFL is.

it's hard to win games and requires. consistent performance from everyone. involved we didn't do that well enough. so the idea to change something happens. and I understand I love the game I love. being part of a team I'm excited for the. next opportunity and know that there's a. lot of good football in front of me and. I'm excited about that to all the fans I. have deep respect and appreciation for. your passion and love for the Giants the. fans are a huge part of what makes. playing for the Giants so special hell.

yeah awesome I think that was a. phenomenal message get him he buried. himself in the middle of that thing so. you can tell that he's uh looked in the. mirror and had some hard convos which I. think we all hope for from our. professional athletes our leaders Daniel. Jones It's Not him to blame that he was. getting paid $40 million a year it's. obviously not him to blame that the. entire organization isn't performing. well but I like the fact that he did. take the blame that's true leadership I. also like the fact that he said his. football career will continue somewhere. else we've seen a lot of second births. third births from the quarterback.

Position will he be one of those guys. TBD obviously but I have massive respect. for the way he handle and now he is. officially released from the Giants. because he asked for his release after. playing scout team safety for a day. yesterday yeah I would assume when he. when he put those thoughts down on paper. he knew that he was going to ask for his. release but it's crazy how quick how. quick things can happen like especially. in football not we know it's not. guaranteed contracts and everything but. he got got plenty of guaranteed money. with the fact that he go you go from. start. okay you're playing scout team you're. the fourth team quarterback and then.

you're asking for your release and. you're gone so now he can quar waivers. another team can sign him right this. season yes he can clear I assume he will. clear waivers uh cuz if he doesn't clear. waivers don't you pick up the contract. yeah he'll clear waivers I would imagine. so I think he's going to clear waivers. then he'll have the opportunity to kind. of choose where he wants to go and I. assume there's going to be teams a lot. ofam that want to sign him Daniel Jones. I mean Carson Wentz is the current. backup for the Kansas City Chiefs yeah. so you want to talk about a tail that is. uh pretty eerily similar in this. particular facet or you you talk about.

it's like the Chiefs have Carson Wentz I. assume there's going to be a team that's. going to want Daniel Jones what are the. teams that are floating around out there. tone what are the teams that are. floating around for maybe Daniel Jones. to be backup quarterback well I mean if. you you think off the top of your head. like teams that right now not even like. a backup like is Daniel Jones better. than Cooper Rush right now could he play. for the Cowboys for the rest of season. could could he could he play for the. Raiders for the rest of the season but. we were actually talking this morning. and I'll let I'll let Ty take this one. because he's got a nightmare scenario. yeah I don't know if it's actually going.

to happen in terms of the waiver process. I don't know how long it's going to take. for it to clear but when I heard this. all I could think is it's going to. happen I'm gonna see Dan Jones Dawning a. ners jersey on Sunday at Lambo and with. Shanahan with the way he he you know we. know the kind of athlete he is I think. there's a chance he's he's wearing Niner. red on Sunday and he slays the Packers I. really I really believe that okay so. let's talk about that because as you. know tone you were rolling through it. about being a starter I thought back to.

Brock py is in the middle of got hurt. last week and then they I believe it. came out that the MRI had a lot better. result than they thought he's going to. come to practice and then they'll see. how it goes but both Allen and uh the. pastron aut are ready and capable to go. if hasby it's like feels like this Brock. py thing was very real and then this. most recent one release a news how do we. how do we how do we feel I I this a. massive question you're five and five. are five and five and Brock pry didn't. practice on Thursday I believe did he.

Mis practice Yeah they said he will be. back today though and we'll see how it. goes which is that games is it do we. know what it is shoulder shoulder see. this is that would scare me to death. yeah absolutely yeah definitely if if. I'm the Niners especially in that NFC. West six and four five and five five and. five five and five that's what the NFC. West is they are very. very very much parody driven in the NFC. West right now the ners we thought were. going to be the team that was going to. go on do it all just like because that. is what the ners are but now last year.

we had to deal with what Debo and Trent. Williams getting hurt in the middle of. the year now here we are and they're not. in as good of a spot and Brock py has a. shoulder that's not great news that for. the Niners if you're a ners fan which I. have become because I love the way they. play football they're dogs out there at. least they used to be now they don't. have as much Moxy and energy now towards. the end of the year do they turn it up. we shall see do they play better. football but it's like I don't know what. the hell's going on over there with. Brock FY con what is the conversation. around Brock party it this is.

problematic in my eyes but is it. gamesmanship what do we think this is. yeah I'm not sure cuz they also had like. the quarterback Thursday press. conference get moved to today so it does. seem very real not only Brock I believe. Trent Williams and Bosa also missed the. Thursday practice too so when you're. talking about the most important players. on that team those are legitimately the. top three I for one am worried just. because you know the Dan Jones thing but. more so like if Brandon Allen does come. in you got no tape on him Shanahan might.

tell him like hey I'll tell you in your. ear right now when and where to throw. the damn football just listen to me I'll. take you home but going to Lambo this is. terrible terrible news for the 49ers and. I'm [ __ ] bricks if I'm a ners fan. you already had you didn't have kdo last. week he is back this week he said you. get a chance to play the Packers you are. playing but you know you mentioned. injuries this year to Bren and auk you. know that loss was Major after paying. him and he finally got going and then. you know he gets you know hurt for the. year and then of course the Debo Samuel.

T Peppa kind of sideline you know. interaction that caused a little you. know tussle on the sideline just the. vibes from the Niners we're so used to. the the name what's the name t Peppa. kind of kind of like I am Peppa but just. tore but just think about the Vibes that. the Niners had you know you mentioned. the way they play but just like The Moxy. that they have every time they take the. field it doesn't feel like they have. that you know same flare if you will. that they've had in recent years and if.

you get if Trent Williams and Bosa are. out you know of course having pry is. huge and at least you can rely on. Shanahan no no Trent Williams no Nick. Bosa is a massive problem what's going. on AJ you okay you okay I'm just. coughing pitting a m mik button coughing. over here what the hell you're going to. have a death here I thought there was. about to be a death at is he emotional. being back on the hollow ground emot I. walked out earlier was looking around. just taking it all in man yeah special. place looking up here with all the. boosters all the boers names all the.

great players here obviously play with. him how how many. boosters one bigo there's a bunch here. one big one bunch of great generous. people yeah well I don't know about. great very very very it's hard to narrow. down to one I think he's right there I. think his name is the biggest one yeah. Woody Hayes great coach thank you woody. woody thank you. wood that's good coach he created a lot. of was a great coach Trestle as well. Urban Meer I mean there's a lineage of.

great coaches here and that's why the. pressure on Ryan day is so damn High. he'll be joining us anywhere between 7. to 15 minutes from now ni I think I. think now we might have another Brian. Kelly situation you know where yeah 12. remember yeah and it's like Bud yeah. sure when do you need me back like 12 13. minutes gone well for BK since then I. know I know I I feel like it's. potentially our that's a huge deal up. there in Michigan huge shout out to. college football uh recruiting news.

yesterday being awesome we were so lucky. that Juju Lewis decided to do that on. our program and obviously they're. getting a good one out there in Colorado. and I think you heard a lot of Colorado. fans say oh so is coach Prime going to. coach the Cowboys now is that what. everybody oh shut up is basically what. the Colorado Buffalo fans were saying. and then I saw the reaction from the. haters of which there are many and. seemingly always woke be uh they were. saying this kid's going to have to.

change his commitment whenever Prime. gets a head coaching job at the Cowboys. so I I don't know if Julian Lewis who is. the number two overall ESPN ranked uh. recruit coming out of the 2025 class he. was the number we I learned a little bit. more I talked to Pete themo after our. conversation yesterday I apologize for. not staying up on all the recruiting. news that's on me but uh I guess he was. the 2026 number one overall recruit they. reclassified to 2025 so then they just. put up at two BAS they're like all right. because we already got number one and. Underwood is his name and I guess he is.

hey he is worthy of where's he going. Michigan four years 10 A5 million. allegedly years 10 half million. allegedly is the deal that he signed now. the goal was never uh to be there for. four years obviously three years to be. able to make to the NFL is the goal I. think for most guys now granted with the. nil especially this particular deal. being way more than what any deal that. I've ever heard of for a player being. allegedly uh reported by on three I. think I think Porto is a part of that.

too I I think he I think he was a uh I'm. sick of seeing our team not have a. quarterback guy which this is the new. world we're in and you can do that so. shout out to Michigan stepping up in a. massive way and getting this dude but he. is a fre I guess he's very good. yesterday I was saying if Julian Lewis. is the number two guy I don't know who. the hell the number one guy is then just. hours later Adam Scher breaks the news. he's going to Michigan and his. highlights start flooding my algorithm. I'm like oh oh okay so there is a great.

future for football at the quarterback. position seemingly right now and. obviously in the world that we're in. they can prosper which is uh good for. them well they're so good so young and. didn't yesterday Julian even said like. when he was 10 years old he's sitting. there reading cover three cover two and. he actually can kind of read defenses. and do that you're that good and you're. 13 14 15 years old that it blows my mind. like when there's obviously there's. physically gifted dudes but when they. can process the game and do all that. that's why I think we're seeing all. these receivers come in for as rookies. they can kind of know where to sit down.

when when to you know if they're manto. man Zone whatever I'm doing they're just. years ahead I think of what you used to. be when it was almost like pickup. football in high school let alone like. the virtual reality thing we talked. about yesterday yeah these kids can get. virtual reality reps on coverages at. their house and you know we talked to TC. Lewis who is Juju Lewis's dad I got a. chance to talk to him yesterday because. I wanted to thank him for the. opportunity for us to do this because we. know it's a massive moment in their. family's history you know and obviously. the dad of the quarterback is going to. be closely tied in there you know like.

he's going to be a part of the whole. process it's like they would like to see. their kids have success too so whenever. they see things that are available I. think Juju Lewis had the highest Elite. 11 score in history that's it Elite 11. and all of them have come through there. everybody has come through the elite he. had like the highest Elite 11 score in. the history of Elite 11 or whatever so. like get all those camps they have all. these things now that are available for. people at a younger age like hey I. assume that virtual reality shit's there. like hey do you guys want this system. hey we'll be able to do this you'll be. able to get these reps and then the. business side of it he had door Dash.

over his shoulder when he talk to us. they're all so much more mature than I. would have been I got $40,000 out in. loans at like 35% interest rate and I. thought I was a king a $35,000 deal for. these dudes is nothing four years 105. million allegedly for that Underwood guy. it's like could you imagine get that. money you would have to grow up quick. because all of a sudden you're the bread. winner oh you're for your whole family. and then if you do the guys that can. come through that and get paid when. they're young and get you know be hey. like at all the expectations you have on. these kids I always get worried when I.

not worried but I'm like okay like I. hope they can handle it if you could. handle all that nil money early all. those expectations and then you can get. drafted in the NFL and you can actually. perform like I more power to you because. that is a tough obviously it's awesome. it's great there's so much. responsibility at a young age where you. realize hey a lot of people are counting. on me like what how I play on the field. affects a lot of different people what's. up Ton the uh fun fact about it. obviously Juju Lewis festar 99 overall. grade he goes Colorado Underwood going. to Michigan and then there was three.

five-star 99 overall quarterbacks in. that class the other ones going to Ohio. State so they'll they'll be going. against each other every year so that's. that's going to be. awesome okay I like that that's. happening and I also appreciate the fact. that like uh coach Prime gave a speech I. don't know if it was recirculated. yesterday because Juju L was signing or. if it happened yesterday after signing. day cuz he doesn't recruit a lot of high. school guys you know he's big transfer. portal guy he said but if we go recruit. a high school guy we're expecting them. to play we're not here just uh hey.

you're hang out he's like we want you to. play and I think that's a big deal for. like Julian lwis wanted to play he said. that right he said I want I want a place. where I can opportunity to play right. away and I can compete and that's why. it's perfect timing get know with this. Shor leaving passing the keys Michigan. same exact situation here for Underwood. it's like right hey they don't have a. quarterback haven't had a quarterback. they' played Four quarterbacks one of. the quarterbacks they played twice and. one quarterback retired this year so. it's like they um they're a spots and. it's like you pick you're representing. this un like Juju is like all right I'm.

going I'm going to go represent Colorado. and then Underwood's like all right I'm. go rep to in Michigan and then this. kid's coming into Ohio State like all. right and it's like you take these high. school rivalries amongst each other and. now it's going to the biggest stage and. if they can perform college football is. much better much quicker because of it. we're incredibly lucky to be joined. ladies can we get uh can you get ears do. we have ears we had ears he's got ears. in ladies and gentlemen joining us now. you want to talk about pressure on a guy. Jesus Christ man couldn't even couldn't.

even fathom the day to day the fact that. he's willing to come stand out here in. the rain in his Stadium ladies and. gentlemen head coach of the buckas. r. coach. great God you look so good we're gonna. try not to ruin it with this rain thank. you for joining us look good in the. hoodie man thank you so uh our honor. defend I just learned about this it's. like uh mer that goes towards I think. you're right in a camera I mean I.

couldn't couldn't sorry you look good. the back of your head was cool that was. all it was it was phenomenal back of. your head uh we'll just call him D going. forward uh so our honor defend uh I. guess this is merch that uh the funds go. towards military scholarships here at. Ohio State it's a beautiful thing I love. what you guys do here speaking of that. massive game tomorrow the Indiana hooers. now he and a lot of Ohio State people I. I don't think fully comprehend the. Indiana hooers being at the stage that. they're at right now how do you feel.

about the team that's coming in here and. how do you think Kurt signet's done his. first year in Big 10 well it's you know. they're 10 and0 and you know they're. they're top five you know matchup here. so um I think they do a good job in all. three phases I think they've done a. great job kind of changing their roster. they're playing with a lot of confidence. so you know we've had a great week of. preparation our guys are fired up and. you know I think this place is going to. be rocking you know at noon tomorrow. okay so let's talk about that noon game. obviously uh players can't care cuz. everybody's playing there you can't care. cuz both teams are playing at that time.

do you hear the noise though of the Ohio. State people that want to put on a. Showcase in prime time with this. particular Stadium at the Horseshoe. there's a lot of noise in this world. yeah I can imagine just the way it goes. like that we don't we don't worry about. that stuff you know we just worry about. playing football preparent you know it. doesn't matter where we play last week. we played played at Wrigley at you know. 11:00 a.m. local time that was good we. made that work we're going to make. whatever time works it doesn't matter so. at some point they got to put the put. the football down and we'll be ready to. play that's cuz you guys draw eyeballs. and that's a credit to what you have. built here go ahead a I know obviously. we with some injuries you guys have. shuffled around the offensive line in.

season I know you've already answered it. multiple times but how is that like how. do you feel going in obviously you're. going to have to feel good but how much. work can you get in when you have to. shift positions especially offensive. lineman kind of keep that cohesive well. when it happened before the Penn State. game we had to move Donovan the left. tackle and that was that was a change in. position so now we're going to moving. Carson to Center we're moving Austin to. guard but like these guys have played. Carson's played 12 games in Center. Austin's played you know he was there. when Donovan was down early in the week. so our early in year so I mean these. guys have done it before a different. challenge for sure and we'll have to see.

how it's going on early on but they've. had a good week of practice a lot of. energy you know Will's been unbelievable. yeah you know and and Seth went down in. practice this week and Will was like hey. man just get on my shoulders we got this. thing had an unbelievable Tuesday. Wednesday Thursday was great we need a. great week of uh preparation here. finishing up this today okay so you. talked about Indiana and the transfer. portal getting a lot of guys in there. you just mentioned a lot of guys that. have come in from the transfer portal. you know Seth goes down you got will. Caleb Downs on defensive side how has it. been like jelling your culture with guys. that are transferring in who are big. time pillars of this particular team.

yeah you know here AJ knows like this is. this has been going on a long time here. at to have state the stadium has been. here over 100 years you know I mean I. actually read an article that was. written 75 years ago just this week. about you know what it was like back. then you know it hasn't changed all that. much like college football's changed a. lot but it's also not changed here in. Ohio and Columbus and so you know. there's a culture that's here already. and you know you're going to add some. pieces in but you have to continue to. develop what you have and I think the. the biggest thing for us like a lot of. people talked about our roster and what. we did in the offseason everything like.

that but it was really just keeping guys. here the one thing we've learned about. you know the marketability of our. players and Ohio State football players. is that you know they they're marketable. I mean they they have high value and so. we had to retain the guys to stay to. come back that was a huge part of it and. then we added a few pieces in and. they've been big pieces for us but the. culture is here it's strong and that. that starts in recruiting and making. sure guys want to be at Ohio State for. the right reason I want to let you know. like a big conversation early and I was. a part of it so uh you can certainly say. hey dip [ __ ] you were a part of it. everybody was talking about the amount.

of money that was spent on your roster I. did say that yeah you should you should. have it's a Lou a lot of people are. saying especially in Indianapolis we'll. get into that later but the um in this. particular then I as I go through the. season I start traveling around College. there's some schools that are like yeah. yeah Ohio State yeah let's talk about. let's talk about what they're doing and. let's not talk about what we're doing. which is even more it's like we're in a. real world right now where your boosters. and your support matter and it feels. like here all the about is ball which. leads to expectations and pressure on.

you you knew that whenever you're. signing up for the job and at this point. you understand it you just feel it and. it's just a part of life now that is. just kind of how it goes yeah because. your record is absurd your record is. absurd and we've talked about it if you. happen to lose a game the entire state. of Ohio is ready to burn down you knew. that was happening though like the way. it goes yeah and you expect that that's. just like good thing not a bad thing I. mean every year when you come to Ohio. State you you want to win it all you. know you have certain goals that you set. and like you the guys who want to be. here you have to understand like you're. here to win every single game and that's. the way it goes and that's the way you.

want in life you know you don't want it. any other way yeah you're right you know. I mean and like again I I had this. article that I read and it was just. talking about how like you know some. people wrestle alligators some people. chew on razor blades some people want to. go to Ohio State and play football. because that's just what they want to do. they want to be in the tigers's den and. that's what that's what tomorrow is. going to be like and you I think this. crowd is going to come in tomorrow and. have that edge about him you know this. is a top five match up this is our third. top five matchup this year and and we. got this one at home and I know this. crowd going to be fired up no I heard. the Big 10 schedules weren't that good. that's what I heard uh AP tone back in.

Indianapolis question for you yeah coach. obviously you know we everyone talks. about your weapons one of the best wide. receiver rooms in the country one of the. best running back rooms in the country. will Howard's unbelievable so when. you're when you're I don't know how much. you script out the beginning of the game. or whatever do you just say like Hey. we're GNA have quinon go off this week. or we're GNA have Jeremiah Smith which. is basically been every week how do you. they they always say there's only one. ball so how do you deal with that on the. offensive side. well I think the the first thing is that.

you have to have a team and a group of. guys that are unselfish that you know. they're not worried about their touches. and we we said that early on like we've. had guys who have been first round draft. picks we have guys who are higher than. tropy finalists you we've had guys who. you know we've had offenses that have. been number one number two in the in the. country in total offense and points and. all that but like the number one goal of. this team is to win like nothing else. doesn't matter what your stats are you. got to win and and that was like on the. front end we said that as a group like. if that's not your goal you probably. need to go somewhere else cuz this group.

is coming together to win for a common. purpose and and so that's the first part. of it but when it comes down to game. planning what you want to do is you want. to put the defense in the most amount of. stress as possible when the more weapons. you have the more you can do that and. and that starts obviously with the. running game and goes from there and. it's just a matter of numbers at some. point you know they have to put an extra. guy down in the box or they got to. double one of your receivers and then. there's one-on-one situation and vice. versa so that's the back and forth and. the game plan that goes on what's going. on with these young kids being so good. he mentioned Jeremiah what.

a what a stud just an absolute stud at. the Freshman year and then we were. talking about these five-star. quarterbacks that just kind of yesterday. made their decisions and then obviously. you guys are getting one as well younger. kids more mature better at football like. is there a feeling that that is the case. I mean you look at other sports and you. just see you know the size of these guys. get bigger and and faster and stronger. and you think a guy like Jeremiah I mean. first off he is very strong he is very. fast he can catch the ball he's a good. route Runner but you see his size huge. huge and you know I just think when you.

look at the game of basketball you see. guys just getting bigger and more. athletic and longer and just I don't. know but but every year it just seems. like you know when you bring up an. eighth grader or a ninth grader in. recruiting you look up you're like. you're 15 years old I can't believe I'm. recruiting this kid he's like six seven. and 300 lbs I'm like what do they feed. you but uh but yeah they're just getting. bigger and stronger and faster I do. think you know the seven on seven and. those type of things has really helped. to skill positions throwing and catching. offensive line um there's been a call. for. like basically saying offensive line. play has been diminished because of the.

way football is being played obviously. you guys have to win it in the trenches. if you want to win actual football games. do you feel that or sense that with. college guys not just your guys but just. around football well I think there's a. great opportunity out there for young. big athletic lineman to play offense and. I think you know there's so many guys. who want to play defense and they want. to get sacks they want to run they want. to tackle because the offensive line. typically doesn't get a lot of the. attention yeah you know it's it's you. know you know we call them oock you know. what I mean like they these are guys. that are going to work for the.

betterment of the team and and it's an. unselfish position and in today's day. and age you know it's it's great to have. guys who do that but I think there's an. opportunity Across America for big. athletic guys who you know play. basketball who play defensive line yeah. to to play in the offensive line because. there's five of them on the field. there's more offensive linemen on the. field than any other position on the. field out of the 22 so those. opportunities are there and you know I. just think that you know a lot more of. these guys should be playing the. offensive line see just missed a perf. pass set it's okay it's okay I I mean I. was literally I mean coach I think I.

missed my still missing it I still. missing it still missing it there we go. and we're back in it uh did you know. this is going to be outside in the rain. Co awesome this is great did you know. this we did not know this this is Big 10. football in November right here man. what's tomorrow going like the weather. you know I mean I hope it's in the 30s I. hope it's you know snowing and we can. get Aon people I hey for the good of. football after what we saw last night in. Cleveland did you see that game it was. awesome okay you watch put a d no I grew. up in New Hampshire you can can't.

imagine what it was like playing in. November in the Turkey Bowl in. Manchester New Hampshire live for your. job brother let's go up to New England. Boston Conor has a question for you yeah. coach speaking of New Hampshire how's it. been working with Chip Kelly uh. obviously he came over to be the OC and. I assume with all those studs you have. on the field sometimes he does look at. you like holy [ __ ] why didn't I have. this at UCLA and also whenever the team. does you know maybe underperforms you. could say do you ever want to go to the. media and just say like hey look I know. you guys are mad at me but this is all.

Chip Kelly's fault just I'm not the one. doing this it's Chip's fault stop. yelling at. me not a bad play yeah well I I I think. the first thing is there's trust there. and anytime you're in a you know. pressure cooker environment you want to. be around guys that you trust and you. know there's nobody I trust more than. chip you know with my life other than my. family I've known him since I've been. this tall he recruited me he was my. coach uh he's been a mentor for me so. like that's a big part of it now doesn't. make it easy you know I mean what we do. every day like it's you know you're.

chasing the top 1% and but but I just. think that you know you can you can have. a you can have an argument you can go. through things but at the end of the day. you got your arm around each other. because you know for the same you're. working for the same goal I think he's. done an unbelievable job of coming in. working with what we have I think the. offensive staff has great chemistry I. think the guys on offense really respect. the way he's come in and added new. things but also you know Incorporated. things that we've done here in the past. and so you know we we got to be our best. here now uh a few weeks ago I think the. big discussion was Chip Kelly was able.

to put away his pride cuz he likes to. run that hurry up stuff and you don't. know if everybody's going to be in the. exact position for success with that. Chip Kelly has realized we got a lot of. weapons let's do our [ __ ] we don't need. to rush it it's been beautiful to watch. it all come together coach thank you so. much for making time for us good luck. tomorrow and uh this hoers team's real. deal so we. oh hell I love that all right back to. you boys as we sent Ryan day out here. for a little bit I mean Ryan Day what. what's his name Dan Mullen said earlier.

this week hey us coaches we know the. spread Ryan day if he knows it's it's 10. you know 10 and a half 11 14 the Ohio. State boys might run up the scoreboard a. little bit against Indiana if he's if. he's very much aware of what that spread. is I mean I think there's a very good. chance it goes one of two ways it's. either you know Indiana squeaks out a. close one I think cuz everyone's saying. hey you know these guys shouldn't be. here or Ohio state is going to beat the. [ __ ] out of them I think I I really do. believe those are the only two options. for how this game taks out a lot of.

people are saying like Sig's got to be. on his game just because the athletes. and just like the bodies that Ohio state. has versus what Indiana has right now. and sigs had two weeks to prepare I. can't I cannot wait for this game on. Saturday and I know AJ Hawk with that oh. script Ohio is so nervous Hey listen I. don't know if he's so nervous after what. Ryan day just said I said hey this. Indiana team's a real deal so are we. okay walks they walked off didn't didn't. smirk didn't smile that that was a very.

matter of fact right there I loved. hearing that out yeah he's dialed in yes. he is and he said he said this crowd's. going to have an edge tomorrow he's I. think he he called The Crowd out he. didn't call him out but he said hey we. need you in your seats early we need you. guys loud like you're part of the game. social media video I told you about it. social media video say hey we need you. lot we need you lot to dude and I think. that's potentially because he knows just. like we've been talking all week there's. some Ohio [ __ ] out there mhm okay okay. who maybe not paid attention to anything. other than Ohio State football sure yeah. they've heard about the Indiana thing.

yeah yeah but like but in their brain. like Indiana all right all right okay. basetball right basetball you're right I. guess that's true I think Ryan is. thinking about that I think he's like. Hey listen this is not the same old. Indiana but we can make this the same. old outcome if we really treat this how. we should I I obviously know that the. Ohio State fans will show up in a big. way but I think there are some Ohio. State fans who still are like you're. going to have to show us and it's not. just Ohio State fans are thinking that. about Indiana no oh yeah a lot of. there's a lot of people thinking that.

about Indiana you should have heard. production meeting this morning boys uh. oh it was alive now I learned a lot of. people in there don't watch our show so. that's what I learned cuz there was a. lot of people saying nobody is giv. Indiana a chance I haven't even heard. Indiana winning this game mentioned by. anybody on TV I'm like all right so. nobody in here watches our show I I just. realized that I wouldn't watch either uh. but I don't think we're the only ones. that are kind of talking about I think. Joel clatt put something out about last. year's Michigan team this year's Indiana.

team and then obviously those common. opponent stats that got you all those. are really good all worked up and jacked. up but I'll tell you what I like Ohio. State more after how Ryan day just acted. right there I appreciated that sense of. urgency seemingly and also the calm cool. confidence con man yeah it's funny you. say that about the production meeting. because I was just going to say like it. feels like the whole week everyone's. been saying if Indiana wins if Indiana. wins I I guess not maybe we've been. watching some different stuff but I. think that's why I have a lot of faith. in Ohio state is because the. conversation all week is you know Ohio.

State it's not rather Ohio State's going. to kill this team Ohio State's going to. absolutely blow out Indiana the. conversation more so is like well if. Indiana wins is Ohio State out is Ohio. State going to get booted from the. playoff if IU wins what if IU keeps it. close like it it does feel especially. from what you just said at Ryan day just. a quick little very stoic like so are we. we're the real deal as well like it it's. almost as if and it shouldn't be but. it's almost as if as the number two seed. in the country they have to prove to. everybody that they're a good football.

team I am so pumped for Saturday and it. just you know kind of hammers home the. point like college football has been. delivering every single week and once. again on Saturday we have a top five. matchup for the fifth sixth time this. year like it is the best biggest best. season we've ever had in college. football to Connor's point it's so. insane just because Ohio State Ryan Day. lost like the last two years or whatever. it was to a very very very very good. Michigan team and then that one by a. last second field goal down in Atlanta.

that you guys were there for like now. people think that Ryan day and Ohio. State can't win a big game because they. lost three games to some of the best. football teams that have ever existed. number one number one number one those. are Oregon number one Georgia number one. Michigan number one you can see yeah you. can see how that would maybe frustrate. you or get a chip on your shoulder as a. coach and the like trickle down through. the team but that's great I mean. everybody's looking for that little. thing to to get him to wake up for that. next workout to get him to to do the.

things that you don't want to do well. and I'm happy the game's at noon so the. boys won't be able to hear but my open. tomorrow that I'm gonna talk about I. don't know if I want to poke the monster. any I honestly because this Indiana. story is awesome and Signet is awesome. and he's talked his [ __ ] he's backed it. up and he's brought a state back to life. a university back to life with hope and. opportunity and everything there and I. know ESPN stats and predictors say a win. they're in a lot they're in but you. listen to a lot of people talk it's like.

if Indiana does lose by a lot there's. going to be a loud loud conversation by. not just people in the SEC but people. around the country going are we not. going to want to schedule hard games. anymore then cuz we just want to win y. who knows hour one just wrapped up hour. two on the other side should be a good. time Nick Sabin will join us somebody. should tell him we're outside somebody. should tell him that we are not covered. and uh the show rolls on we can't thank. you enough for allowing us to do this be. a friend tell a friend something nice it.

Friday this hour two starts. right. football yeah didn't have my ears in. completely forgot couldn't hear anything. I thought uh we lost her sound but I put. a beanie on obviously because it is. chilly here in beautiful Columbus Ohio.

as the Ohio State Buckey are lesson 24. hours away from having a battle against. the Indiana hooers this is Ohio State. Legend AJ Hawk AJ Hawk AJ Hawk AJ Hawk. AJ Hawk good to see you AJ uh whenever. you walk back on campus which I know is. a regular because you are a Mainstay. here for the Buckey do you get a sense. of boy I wish it was me running on that. field tomorrow to take on Kirk signet's. boys yeah it is crazy to think of how.

long ago I was here it's like 20 years. pretty much now since I I was playing. here so yeah time time goes pretty fast. it definitely does but I remember. walking down this exact tunnel it's. gotten bigger it's gotten uh they got. all these like smoke machines now and. everything it was a little different but. yeah the players come walking right. through here boom that's we go I. remember the very first time I ran out. there thinking like wow I feel actually. pretty tiny I remember my brothers. telling me how small I looked on the. sidelines and I was probably never going. to play yeah but you did play your. freshman year I actually have a couple. picks and even a pick six and playing. the national championship because you're.

built different is what's the song when. you guys come out is. say h i o no it's the band it's the band. now you know the band plays us out what. is it what's it sound like I don't know. you have to you have to pull it up pull. up. everybody's got their you best Bandon.

the land we what is what is it though. you got what do you mean it's a fight. song what is it I don't know I can't I'm. not you don't know this guy do watch the. tree down cut his tree down don't you. have a tree here on campus uh somewhere. yeah it is why is that uh when you. become an All-American uh they plant a. buckeye tree I do not know Ty they moved. Buckeye Grove as they call it it used to. be right back here now it is somewhere. over by the F you haven't even visited. your tree oh I've never seen the tree.

actually I saw pictures of it though on. man not even on Arbor. Day no not on Arbor unbelievable let's. go to the toxic table at Boston Conor at. Tai Schmidt we're going to move in the. greatest coach of all time boys if uh. you can maybe summarize what this. weekend is for college ball we would all. what was that is that. Tob somebody practicing somebody playing. C was that. Sabin someone following him around with. a.

trumpet what the hell. was the band is playing hey what what's. the fight song sound. like you guys mouth it go and play it. they don't know it either are you. kidding me. not oh my God what an embarrassment. what's it sound like do you even know. what it sounds. like oh the these guys suck oh my God uh. AP tone one half of the.

hammer Cowboys uh this weekend's a big. one for college ball a lot on the line. we're going to set up coach DAV thank. you I appreciate it pat we've talked a. ton about you know Indiana at Ohio State. 13 point spread 10 point spread whatever. it is right now but another huge one. that I think like nobody has talked. about quite as much yet is Army at Notre. Dame cuz if this is a playoff game for. sure cuz if obviously if Army loses they. they're not going to be in the playoff. they're not going to get that highest. ranked conference Champion most likely.

and then Notre Dame if they lose they. are also out in this situation so that. is ipso facto a playoff game uh in. Yankee Stadium for the uh the Shamrock. Series uh so that's another huge one in. that situation I don't know if you guys. have any any thoughts on the Notre Dame. army game it's just weird that you know. I mean technically it's a Notre Dame. home game if you will and there. obviously a lot of people who went to. Notre Dame in the greater New York area. and everything but the proximity to West. Point like I feel like there's a good. chance that there are more I mean I.

don't know Notre Dame obviously is a. massive fan base but still like I wonder. if playing at Yankee Stadium is anywhere. different and even if if Army does win. this game I still don't think it's a. guarantee that they do get into the. playoff although I feel like if they do. win this game that they it should be a. guarantee yeah I mean if they obviously. if they if they beat Notre Dame and then. they have two lane in the AAC. Championship if they win that one it's. going to be like it would be super hard. for the committee to keep them out. whether it's jumping Boise is the group. of five highest ranked conference.

Champion or situation or whatever. happens there but yeah that is a huge. one in Yankee Stadium this weekend uh. Pat how you looking over there brother. ah fantastic ladies and gentlemen. joining us now live from the tunnel in. which the Ohio State Buckeyes take the. field for every home game the greatest. of all time ladies and gentlemen Mick. s. coach coach how you doing boss I think. microphone's off got to turn that thing. on and I'm good there you are uh we. muted it that's on us coach great to see.

you good to be here chilly chilly bad. weather I try to forget about this kind. of weather yeah I heard uh the story. about you and Miss Terry uh leaving the. north going to the South and deciding to. never have to deal with this for a full. schedule for sure uh but tomorrow the. weather conditions how do you feel it's. going to factor in this or both teams. are from the north they don't have to. worry about it well I think both teams. are from the north but we haven't had. this kind of weather much anywhere in. the country and I do think football.

changes when it's cold the ball changes. throwing the ball changes catching the. ball changes holding on to the ball. changes so um getting hit changes so. there's a lot of things that change when. it's really really cold weather but you. know the thing that I'm this may affect. tomorrow's game but what's going to. happen when one of these teams from the. south oh yeah have to come up here and. play in probably worse weather than this. and and young college players never have. the opportunity to do that yeah so we're. talking about the college football.

playoff in the home field advantage for. the first round of the 12 team playoff. the there was a lot of discussion about. this during our production meeting this. morning that was awesome it I'm so lucky. to be a part of it but that's a huge. aspect that I think we've chatted about. the home field advantage home field. advantage being able to Showcase you. know the stadiums and showcase the. atmosphere and the pageantry and the. Traditions which college football has. which no other sport has but also the. weather like Penn State I think was. hosting one for a while Ohio State here. is allegedly going to host against BYU. which obviously they've handled the.

weather before but Alabama having to go. up to Notre Dame right now Georgia. having to go in the Happy Valley of Penn. State old miss having to go to. Bloomington you know like that's a real. thing that we haven't had to see in the. past that these are the most important. games of the season when they're dealing. something they never felt before no. question about it and I think the other. question that we haven't discuss much is. would you rather have a buy or would you. rather have home field advantage. we would rather have HomeField Advantage. I think right I would yes I'd definitely. rather have home field advantage and.

play a game at home than having a buy. because you have time at that point in. the season to recover anyway so is it an. advantage to have more weeks off and try. to get into the game or play more in a. rhythm uh and go ahead and play and have. a home field game you get that rust off. at home you know AB so you get a chance. to get the rust off from the two weeks. that are going to be at least from. everybody and then you have your crowd. as a weapon and added weapon and this. whole thing we've been pitching on this. show for the last couple weeks and. obviously nobody really listens when we.

talk but if you say it people will don't. you think until at least semifinal like. if you get a buy should have HomeField. advantage in that next week and they're. trying to figure out the bowls and. everything like that we get it put the. bowls in these places I mean you could. just have no question I don't want to. say name them that but you could just. take these bowls and make them the semi. quarterfinal game first round game. everything like that yeah I I think in. college football especially with the big. stadiums um and the big 10 and the SEC. and all over the country really having a. game at home is a huge advantage and if.

you're a higher ranked team that should. be something that you take are able to. take advantage of so I absolutely think. however they do it uh there should be. games played at home until maybe the. semis yeah at least the semis I mean. we're going to have to give and take we. would like it to go all the way to the. National Championship but I assume. that's not going to happen um let's talk. about this game here a little bit age is. an Ohio State Legend obviously hell no. doubt. Buckeye you know and he has no bias at. all he's pulling for the Buckey we just. had Ryan Day on and at the very end I.

said to him I said hey Indiana is a real. deal this year and he said so are we and. then he walked off yeah no smir or. nothing nothing nothing at all the. pressure on Ryan day to win is obviously. immense every year it is this year more. more specifically Indiana's coming in. with a good team how do you see this. whole thing going well I think Indiana. does have a really good team probably a. better team than what people think. because you always think of the brand. like you always think Ohio State. Michigan you don't really think Ohio. State Indiana and and that'll be.

something that the Ohio State players. have to really comprehend from a. psychological standpoint that these guys. are a pretty good team uh but I think. that Indiana's defensive line is better. than people give them credit for and. with the recent injuries in the. offensive line for Ohio State that'll be. uh maybe something to watchs but I also. think that the skill guys that Ohio. state has the running backs the wide. receivers going to be really really hard. for Indiana to match up with all those. people and now Indiana obviously their.

strength is schedule big conversation. they took on last year's National. Champion Michigan because Michigan. wasn't good this year obviously doesn't. count as a good win they took on last. year's National Champion runner up. Washington but because Washington's in. the middle of transition that doesn't. count as a good win it's like the big. wins for Indiana at the time I think for. Indiana big wins but overall grand. scheme of things they're not going to be. considered as such and then you think. about Ohio State if they were to lose to. Indiana they would lose to number one. Oregon and then probably number one or. number two Indiana is their strength of.

schedule match up there's Chaos on the. horizon no matter what happens here. tomorrow oh I don't I don't think. there's any question about it and I. think what comes into play here is not. the top teams in your league like I. think Ohio State and Oregon and you know. the top teams in the Big 10 are just as. good as the top teams in the SEC but the. SEC is so much deeper you know there's. eight or nine teams that have been in. the top 25 this year and they're all. playing each other and they're beating. each other uh so you got a two- lost. team that has played like Georgia five.

top 25 teams and they have two losses. that's a little different than playing. no top 25 teams or not beating any top. 25 teams like some other teams in the. Big 10 and in other places in the. country chaos we talked to uh coach. Mullen the other day and you could tell. us this a little bit more college. football has always been in a a vote. like has always been just like opinion. based subjective there it is subjective. always has been right it's a part of.

like the I don't to say the lore of. college football but it is a part of. college football and always has been. this year it's going to be bigger than. ever I think there's going to be more. chaos more loudness from teams than ever. before because there's more spots more. teams thinking they deserve it exactly. and I and you know let's look at the. NCAA basketball tournament they put 68. teams in and then they have a 2-hour. show on ESPN about who didn't get in so. it it doesn't matter whether it's 12. teams 16 team there's always going to be. a debate about who didn't get in but I. think the good news about this and I've.

said this many times before is they will. get the best five or six teams in for. sure that that that's something that. won't happen there's been times in the. past when like in 2003 we won lots of. people thought Southern cow should have. got in you know there were times when we. didn't get in or we got in in Florida. State didn't get in I mean where the. fifth team got left out so I don't think. that's going to happen they'll get the. best team but it's going to be some of. the teams that get in and some of the. teams that don't get in and how that all.

worked out is going to be an issue yeah. I remember the coach Sav speech of like. uh well how come all right all sports. books have us favored against every team. if we were to play them that's in play. tell me how that makes sense cuz we lo I. remember that there's some of the best. speeches I've ever heard you give and. then on the flip side I think there's. some times where you thought like I. don't know if we're going to get in and. then you guys get in somebody gets left. out it's just kind of the name of the. game almost yeah and it was all. subjective it was all subjective and and. the the the one thing about we would.

have been 13o favorites over TCU if we. would have played them and they got in. the playoffs when we didn't and I'm not. criticizing PCU it wasn't their fault I. mean but that is the subjective part of. it what happened to TCU in that run. yeah how was at that game yeah you were. we were working together that right it. was a great thing go Ahad right coach. let say tomorrow we always talk about. getting out to a fast start I know it's. a cliche thing like if you were Ryan Day. in the Ohio State bucke guys you want to. pound the ball early what do you want to. do I guess to come out I feel like a.

game like this would be so valuable to. get out to an early lead get the fans on. your side and kind of quiet everything. down yeah but I think you know I always. preach to my our team no matter what you. know want to play a 60-minute game and. you don't really dominate the team in. the 10th play or the 20th play of the. game it might take 50 plays in the game. to make the guy say uncle you know and. you really want to defeat the other team. you just don't want to win win the game. you know that's that's what I always try. to preach to our team but I do think. momentum is an important thing and if.

you can earn momentum early in the game. by getting off to a good start it. affects the other team psychological. disposition it also gives your team. confidence and it's a little easier if. you can maintain you know that momentum. throughout the game do you change. practice like let's say your team isn't. a good starter you know like there's. been some teams that I've been on slow. starters but closers you know and then. there's been some teams have been. incredible at the beginning and then bad. late is there things you can change that. or is a team's identity kind of how they.

are well I think it's probably how they. are but I do think that however you are. you want to try to change for the better. so however you identify a weakness in. your team all right you want to work on. that and you want to focus on that and. you want to make the players realize. this is an issue guys we're not. finishing games we got to play for 60. minutes or we're starting out poorly. which means we're not practicing well. enough we're not preparing enough we. don't have those you know everybody. makes a 20 play script in the beginning. of the game that they're going to run.

we're going to make sure we don't mess. those things up so we get off to a good. start so there's ways to try to fix it. but I think it's like quality control in. any business you you you you identify a. weakness you want to get it changed. easier said than done somehow you were. able to do how long were you coaching. for how long did you coach for 50 jez. good Lord thanks for football thanks for. your footb uh the boys back in. Indianapolis have some photo uh. questions P tone is up first yeah coach. um I was looking at schedu there's a lot. of you know potential playoff teams on.

the road this week A&M at Auburn Bama at. Oklahoma Penn State at Minnesota Old. Miss at Florida Colorado at Kansas and. Kansas has been playing spoiler the last. two weeks so if you you're in this. situation where you're playoff team. going to one of these teams that are. only in it to play spoiler this week. what is your message to the team when. the team that they are playing on the. road is only there just to ruin your. playoff chances. well you know I always had kind of the. same message for our team you know we. wanted to you know beat the other team.

we wanted to focus and control what we. could control and when you play on the. road you're not only playing against the. team that you're playing against you're. playing against their fans their Spirit. their passion but none of those people. have anything to do with the outcome of. the game there's not one fan going to. play a play that the noise doesn't. affect the outcome of the game so we. control what we control by how we. execute and how we do it and it doesn't. matter where we do it you I used to tell. our guys if we got to go play in a. parking lot then we'll go play in a. parking lot we got to go execute what we.

got to do wherever we play and take the. other team out of their game and. sometimes a team thinks that by playing. at home that's an advantage and I used. to tell our players cuz that was the. thing at LSU you know we play at home. it's so loud it's it's Death Valley it's. hard to play here they're saying sucked. that and and I would say it's not. playing in Tiger stadium it's the tigers. that play in play Tiger Stadium that. make a difference amen all right so you. can't get caught up in that thinking. that some external factor is going to.

help you win coach uh I've heard a lot. of people say if we're playing home away. in a parking lot like you just said. right there what would the style game. plan be if you did have to play on a. parking lot what would you that's a fast. track feels like that's a fast track. we're taking we're taking deep shots how. would you play that game get a flatb and. some hats feed and butt him in the. throat that's what I. [Music]. Schmidt has a question for you coach. that's good plan that's a winning plan. right there Ty I think yeah absolutely.

uh coach there's another pretty deao. playoff game this weekend at Yankee. Stadium between Notre Dame and army now. Army plays a little bit different I. think than typical serviceis but do you. think it's uh an advantage to play a. service Academy this late in the season. when you have a full season's worth of. tape and it's not like when you play. them early on and and you have no idea. what they're going to do because they. play so much differently than your. typical. opponent I I think the big thing is is.

at this point in the season having to. play such a different offense as an. option offense but the advantage for. another Dame is they played Navy and. there's a lot of similarities so their. scheme is probably going to uh have had. a lot of reps because they played Navy. but play option football where they move. the point of attack on the run is not. something that modern-day current. football players really play much. because everybody's in the spread so. this is usually a huge adaptation and a.

huge adjustment for your team late in. the season but Notre Dames and has an. advantage because they have played. against it just just recently Bryson. dy's a dog we've been talking about him. on game day the last couple weeks he got. banged up then he's back they're showing. his highlights he's a different animal. obviously shout to Army neutral sight. good for those types of games or no well. I think it is for Army I mean because. they don't have the same kind of Stadium. as Notre Dame but I think what army. going to do in this game and they're. built for it they're going to actually. try to shrink the game every way they.

can they they run the ball 87% of the. time it's pretty good and they're going. to keep running it and if they can. average three yards a play they'll go. for it on fourth down they're going to. try to keep the ball away from Notre. Dame and hopefully keep the game close. so maybe they have an opportunity in end. to Win It AJ quick math you average. three yards a rush you do it four. straight plays how many yards is that. probably about 12 maybe what's a first. down 10 oh my God. football winning football three and half. yards in the cloud of dust that's Woody. haes W I had to tell Pat about the.

greatness of Woody ha with Woody yeah. absolutely when I coached here uh I had. three different occasions where I heard. Woody either speak or sit down and talk. to him have lunch with them or whatever. and um I was always fascinated by the. wisdom you know like I always tell the. story when Michigan was number one when. I was here in 1981 I think and we had. lost two games and they were number one. in the country where like 17o underdogs. were going up there to play and Woody.

comes to the senior tackle and gives a. speech the best speech I ever heard he. said there can be no great victories. without tremendous adversity and he. takes us going to Michigan to play with. all these obstacles that we have to. overcome and Compares it the war in. Pacific it's the greatest military. victory of all time and the reason for. that is because for a. so and he says well you guys have all. these obstacles or 17. underdogs you're. playing on the road there's 110,000.

people against you the weather's bad. it's snowing it's cold this is the. greatest opportunity in the world for a. great Victory and we went from having a. negative attitude to oh man we got a. chance to have a great Victory and we. won we won 14 to9 it was a great game. one of my best memories and then I was. jumping up and down in the locker room. after the game saying we finally arrived. we're a young team we could beat anybody. in the country now and Woody comes. walking in and he says I'm glad we don't. have a game next week and I'm like. what's up with this guy he said we.

played ass over te Kettle day they team. of the country would beat next. week we wasted it all we wasted it when. I say wisdom that's what I mean by. wisdom uh that's how we feel whenever. you talk now uh obviously grat in this. entire game and the game has changed. just yesterday we had Julian Juju Lewis. on the show he was committed to USC. Sunday he decommits to USC yesterday he. commits to Colorado he was the number. one recruit of the 2026 class he.

reclassifies into the 2025 class I think. he had to academically test out of some. classes so obviously incredibly. intelligent Bryce Underwood yesterday I. believe is his name he commits to. Michigan yesterday with a alleged. four-year $10.5 million deal when Juju. did it he had a door Dash bag over his. shoulder obviously perfect timing with. uh shador leing and him going in and. it's Underwood kid perfect timing with. everything they got going on at the. quarterback position now you've seen the. game change a lot and you're at the.

beginning stage of this entire nil. transfer portal modern world that we're. in how do you feel about the thought of. these young guys saying I want to go. somewhere where I can play but also. somewhere where I can make a lot of. wealth and and and prosper off of it how. do you feel about the modern recruiting. and how do you think it goes going. forward well I'm I'm not sure the system. is great for development of players but. you certainly cannot blame the players. for choosing a school for both reasons. that you just said somewhere I can play. and it's the system allows me to do it.

and I'm a free agent even in high school. to make a decision about where I want to. go to school why not take advantage of. it now do I think that's a college. experience that we all you know sort of. had the opportunity to go through and. develop and mature um develop a career. off the field graduate from school. school try you guys played in the NFL. have a chance to develop to play in the. NFL maybe not the best model for that.

but it is certainly the best model for. these guys to take advantage of right. now because it is the rules and you. can't blame them for taking advantage of. it yeah and I don't think you're saying. these two guys in this particular case. you're just talking about as a whole. what everybody's looking for is this and. this potentially now obviously Prime. coach Prime over there in Colorado. showcase can get a quarterback to the. NFL can get people to the Heisman. Michigan has obviously done the same. thing but this a national thing I think. use what you were chatting about not. just exactly but but I'm specifically. saying these two guys did that where can.

I play and how can I enhance my future. the best in terms of how much you know. people are willing to invest in me. you're not you're not making a lot of. nil money if you're not playing that was. kind of brought to my attention. yesterday who I think Pete Tam said that. to me yesterday do you do you boys. remember Pete said you think about these. nil deals right like obviously if you're. Arch Manning you're still going to get. paid if you're not playing cuz you're a. Manning and you do you even need the. money cuz you come from a well-off. family but if you don't and your money.

is strictly coming for your entire. family from you playing if you're. getting registered or not playing the. money is not anywhere near what it is so. playing time is like yeah goes hand in. hand with all of it almost well I think. your development is the most important. thing you can do when you're in college. especially if you're a premier player. cuz really there's so much more if you. can develop into an NFL successful. player long term and uh I think that's. important but one of the things I would. caution all these guys about in. recruiting right now you know there's a. court case out there that's probably. going to get settled probably going to.

get settled sometime in April and when. that court case gets settled it may. change the landscape of name image and. likeness to some degree which may affect. some of these deals because it's going. to be marketing based and you got to. develop a marketing reputation if you're. going to make any money in marketing so. plan still is important right that that. ruling just completely throwing a wrench. potentially in all these deals cuz what. happens what's ruin do exactly salary. this is where the revenue sh salary.

Revenue sharing there'll still be name. image and likeness but it'll be. controlled by what your marketing value. is so you just can't pay for play which. is what it's become right now which is. probably not a good thing so it might be. better but uh these deals that are being. made made under these circumstances may. change a little bit in the future April. 8th I believe is the date if uh if I am. accurate in this whole thing what do you. got the rest today coach you already. filmed film room or no I already did it. got it knocked out running the option. man having them safeties run the alley.

we got it I love watching you do that. [ __ ] on Game Day legitimately you're. fantastic out there tomorrow morning. should be amazing uh we can't thank you. enough for stopping by I appreciate we. gave a hand warmer I that's for you I. don't know yeah so I had three hand. warmers in my hoodie I forgot about them. so as you were talking I was pulling him. out and I passed him down and I pulled. out a second one I pulled out a third. one and AJ was like where the [ __ ] are. you getting these. hand where were these things for the. last hour and a half thing I want to.

commend you on you know this is. obviously a great atmosphere to get your. ass ready to play yeah you're damn right. to do a radio show or podcast I don't. know. man well we appreciate you stopping by. these uh you know Hey listen what a. great opportunity this was without great. adversity there's no chance for a great. Victory boom and that's what we have. today with this conversation we can't. thank you enough ladies and gentlemen. the goat Nick. [Music].

Sab I had no idea he coached at Ohio. State oh yeah everywhere I mean yeah I. guess when you're Nick sa you kind of. get to coach every 50 years that's crazy. it really is such a long time it's. insane they they're watching him show up. with that coat and be cold the entire. time and I think Pat saw it too cuz he. immediately asked about those SEC teams. going to Big 10 places I hope the col. football playoff stays the way that it. is as far as SEC schools having to go to. those cold places because that would.

make just like last night like that. would make the playoffs so much better I. also have to just settle it like SEC Big. 10 is going to be this thing for so long. we might as well just have as many SEC. Big 10 games as possible because I mean. SEC could say too like oh yeah we play. in the cold you want to play in this. heat you want to come down here play. here they should they should also do. that like if they're I mean they're. never going to do it but if there are. four big 10 schools and four SEC schools. they should make both both of them play. each other every single year the top two. big 10 schools get those games at home.

and the top two secc School get those. games at home because people can scoff. at it and act like it's not a big deal. like this kind of weather it's. absolutely a big deal without a doubt. yeah I'd say I'd say it's a big deal and. you can ask uh one particular team and I. don't know if his mic's on check the. Miami Dolphins last year having to go. City you know like there's some teams. that view snow games and there's some. guys from the south and from warm. weather that's like it's my first time. seeing snow and it's like a it's like a.

celebration it's like man this is so. cool I get to do this but then there's. some teams that are like get me out of. here get me the hell out of let's get. this game over hey offense run the ball. let's get out of here I've heard NFL. players talk about that I'm from. Pittsburgh cold place you're from Ohio. cold place yeah it sucks being cold I. mean I think the older you get the worst. it is being cold too it sucks being cold. so like being from the South if you have. the right Minds it's like oh I I get to. play in a like jamus Winston last night. when his.

eyes. yes yes you saw him just get so excited. that was though he was he was like elf. you're right he was Will FAL in elf with. his excitement. level football gohe head con man you you. well you ranked him yesterday like the. snow cold is the number one cold like. that is exactly what you're looking for. early on it felt like it was almost like. the rain type cold but once it became. like the thick snow it it did feel as if. everyone was like okay let's play ball.

this is exactly what we're looking for. uh boys uh normally we wait until about. the third hour to do this but I'm 100%. sure this one's going to go into the. third hour I think it's time for us to. make our picks all right let's do it. I've been King it lately so let's do it. the entire NFL slate against the spread. uh AJ Hawk the face of Ohio and I will. be doing that just like we do every week. can we look up the current standings uh. me versus. AJ just a nice little reminder of what.

it is I'm not sure if we have one and. nine I think I'm I've I got one win over. you so you're one nine and one something. like that yeah I believe it's one nine. and one so you have no chance of coming. back no I can win this week though you. can spoil you can be a spoiler win this. week you can certainly certainly can uh. and to be clear every game because the. spread exists is impossible it's coin. flip and uh we're lucky we get to do. this and when this show ends at. 1:55 today this show is over.

uh this is that cold rain kind of stuff. we're talking about the coldest if this. turned to nice beautiful huge snowflakes. that would be ideal this is the worst. this isn't happening this is the worst. case scenario we are out in it too for. the first hour didn't need to be we just. found out and uh I mean it is let's get. to it by the way this is zto production. and Tim McAfee production great work. work. boys boys shout out to Shawn Perkins.

Rush playing again Mike is still playing. uh yeah I think they're good to go how. about Micah apologizing two weeks. afterwards for what he said about Mike.

Detroit Lions taking on the Indianapolis.

Colts it's only seven now here's the. thing uh. oh what yeah. so I appreciate if the. fact of the matter is that the. Indianapolis Colts team is going to. utilize me as motivation you know what. do you mean well zier Franklin and EJ. speed uh two men that play on the. defensive side of the ball for the. Indianapolis Colts good ball players uh. they have a podcast called The Trenches.

and they say zier and EJ clap back at. the me and they use my picture okay in. the in the thing as if I'm the only. human that was talking about all the. problems that were happening in your. locker room okay your locker room the. one that had people missing treatment. and gambling on the team and being late. to meetings and saying they don't work. hard and quarterback tapping out out of. and I'm the problem okay okay I think. that's a potential part of the issue. with the Colts yeah but that being said.

everything's still in front of them. everything is still in front of there's. no way you're still picking them here. everything is in front of this you. started looking at the Colts in the. Lions you think to yourself well this. Lions team turned that franchise into a. winner okay this Colts team potentially. turn turned the Colts into losers you. know like two very different situations. we haven't won the AFC South in 10 years. oh 10 are you sure 10 years having won. the AFC South now the way people are. getting paid and the way people act in.

Indiapolis Colt facility you would think. they were in Super Bowls no they're not. they Haven won AFC South since. 2014 damn we got people wondering if. they're even working hard that's in. their locker room not mine not my locker. room now granted I'm in Indianapolis I'm. at the games I see the things that are. taking place on what a run you guys had. yeah used to be great used used to be. great I was very lucky to small small. small part of a very good teams back in. the day but yeah used to be a good team. used to be somebody that was worried you.

know whenever the Colts are coming to. town now it's like people are almost. circling the Colts again for a dub which. is not great that's their locker room. that's not mine now they don't like. being in that locker room from what I've. understood and I've heard and I'm cool. with that now I checked back for zier. Franklin you know I went through his. college record as well at Syracuse yeah. how was it not a lot of wins there. either you know so hopefully this. becomes a winning see there was no. reason to do that there's no reason to. do that I did not know that was getting.

pulled up right there I had no idea that. was going to happen but hopefully you. know this entire thing that I'm the bad. guy that's pointing out all the things. that you're locker room has done and. your team has done for the first time in. the history of the NFL some things have. happened that not in a good way but if. I'm the guy that's going to motivate. them and rally them and they're going to. utilize me as the get over the wins. that's sweet but not this weekend give. me the Lions minus 20. uh in in. Lucas against the Indianapolis Colts man. I mean with all that being said you.

being like the herd Brooks for them. where they can all G together and you're. going to you're going to light that fire. in that locker room H give me the Lions. minus 7 this week yeah I think everybody. understands that let's go to Titans. Texans uh Titans plus 7 and a half going. is that alien yeah what it is oh there's. a guitar I can hear gu I don't know. what's going on the mdle baby. I don't think that's part of toid that's. sweet allegedly this is Fox doing this.

ah sure Fox set I guess Fox set is at. the top of the tunnel right there so. they're soundchecking. stuff it's going to be good you guys are. going to cross [ __ ] I got good Rhythm I. heard the drums were boom boom boom boom. boom all right so now we got a massive. game down in Houston for the AFC South. Titans getting a touchdown more than a. touchdown MH uh CJ Stout obviously big. win over the Dallas Cowboys uh AJ how do. you feel about this one man this is 7.

and a half does feel like a lot you know. for some reason I feel good about the. Titans here covered so give me the. Titans plus seven and a half on the road. W they got a stingy defense I'm not. claiming that they will win but I think. they can cover give me the Texans let's. go Buccaneers Giants Giants will be. playing Tommy cutlets uhuh Tomy cutlets. he's favored by six no I'm sorry he's. getting six at home against a great. Tampa Bay Buccaneers a lot of drama over. there in the Giants organization who. knows how good of a look their offenses. been getting Daniel Jones is playing.

safety with the practice squad uh I. don't know if he's bought in or not. bought in to doing that particular role. I would see how he could not be he asked. for his release he might be playing for. a different team literally next weekend. give me the Buccaneers favored by six on. the road in metti six does not feel like. enough here go ahead sorry Mike Evans I. believe he practiced this week should be. back and then there's a stat he needs. like 600 35 yards over these last seven. games to uh be I think the first guy. ever or maybe just join a club to have.

10 or 11 straight Seasons with thousand. yards okay so yeah I like the bucks even. wor oh yeah yeah I do too Baker will do. whatever it takes I think to get him. that and bake just donated all those. helmets to that high school team that. did great so yeah give me the Bucks here. minus six I love that they're coming off. a buy so they've had two weeks to. prepare for Tommy cutlets or whatever. Deo is gonna do I like what Tommy DeVito. does no matter what he does I like what. he does I just like the Buccaneers a. little bit more Vikings Bears Vikings. favored by three and a half in Chicago.

zto is back there working the cameras. right now I don't know if he has a mic Z. how do you feel about this thumbs up. thumbs down thumbs up love it okay you. like the bears plus three and a half I. was getting koc's head before he went. live so I think we're in a good spot. okay little psych out from Z as he was. getting Kevin okono ready for the show. is there anything we need to know about. this other than the fact that the. Vikings are the Vikings and the Bears. are the Bears no I think uh I think. they're pretty healthy too as the as far. as these as far as healthy can be at. this point in the season Bears played. good last week man they did yeah is that.

the uh should have won that game. definitely should have won that game is. the is the bump over though is the Waldo. hey we we got a new play caller now is. that bump kind of done with where in the. world is Shane Waldren coaching uh gave. me the Minnesota Vikings minus three and. a half Kevin oconnell came on the. program obviously I appreciate him for. that yeah he was awesome I'm taking the. the Vikings here minus three and a half. I know KOC also said they haven't played. a complete game yet they don't need to. probably to win this one but I still.

think they win Kansas City Chiefs taking. on the Carolina Panthers in the Queen. City you don't go downtown you go uptown. in Charlotte Chiefs are going down to. Carolina favored as 10 and a half points. as back-to-back Super Bowl champions. Bryce young and that Panthers team has. been playing good over the last couple. weeks I know we can't forget that I I'm. I don't that's why this is tough for me. with 10 and a half points seems like a. lot David peer has not been hated by his. fan base for at least a month and a half. right boys crazy yeah Woody Johnson. really doing the Lords work for him.

there too as like maybe the most hated. owner in in the NFL right now and kind. of a good bit of JuJu ever since they. did that concert for the hurricane. victims they've kind of been you know. just a little bit better what was that. 21 million or something raised 24 24. million that was phenomenal stuff terer. says you can have it all whatever you. need please let's help as much as we. possibly can he should have matched that. maybe yeah yeah that good pretty good. look he probably donated millions of. dollars for this entire thing like why. not more just dou it still 25 out baby.

steps baby steps for terer here one one. one one foot in front of the other okay. Stadium's enough for right now for him I. like what Carolina has been doing good. for them finding some happiness that. Canalis Bryce young hug at the end of. that first win was very cool but uh the. Chiefs is the Chiefs and I think they. just come off a loss so they have quite. a work week uh they probably wake up a. little bit I like the Chiefs minus 10. and a half yeah I like the Chiefs uh. minus 10 and a half but also the stadium.

will be full most likely won't it Chiefs. fans will travel Chiefs fans will fill. that place. [Music]. up that's what's GNA feel like the. Carolina you guys do anything cool here. for that you guys thought I know that. guy we were never I don't know about you. in college I don't we were never out. there for the anthem players weren't. yeah back in our day it wasn't like a. thing they do the whole script Ohio it's. amazing but the players we were still in. the locker room for all that yeah. national anthem was only massive games.

yeah we out there I don't know if I was. ever out for the anthem in college. national championship probably right. don't you think oh maybe maybe I don't. remember I I I always remember us being. in the side I don't cuz I remember I got. to Green Bay it was the first time we. ever out there so were you sitting down. in the locker room whenever the national. never heard it you couldn't hear it but. if I knew it sitting down support the. troops wow wow this guy support the. troops stand at the doorway hand in my. heart even though I couldn't hear it and. coach would say hey come on get in the. circle I'm trying to break it down I. said coach they might be doing the. anthem that was like kind of a like back.

I think even at the beginning of my NFL. career and I assume yours we weren't out. there for every national anthem it was. like big National was yeah we weren't. always out I remember when we were out. there Big Mike would tell us hey look. professional get stand in a straight. line stand like on on the outbounds. lines don't don't be all you know up and. back and up and back like everyone stand. in a straight line and I'm like okay. I'll get it coach it well then then it. became in every game every body thing. yeah and then you know what happened Y. and then people boycotted the NFL and. then now we're back seemingly to what a.

roller coaster really really nonexist. not happening to. happening it's a very polarizing. situation to we're back now we're back. now we're. atall of the. CH all right so uh I will take the. Kansas City Chiefs here Patriots. Dolphins con man how do you feel. fantastic Drake May has continued to be. an absolute Workhorse uh I don't know. how many more games I can take of the. Patriots losing in a heartbreaking. fashion then coming in here on Monday. saying well Drake May's pretty good so.

who cares that we lost but I feel good. going down to Miami good weather. hopefully not sure if it'll be raining. or not but Dolphins also pretty good. vibes coming out of that camp as well. yeah I saw coach McDaniel giving a good. speech uh yesterday a lot of uh. self-awareness Gumpy here behind the. camera how do you feel about the. Dolphins at home against the Patriots. pal yeah we're cooking right now offense. has figured it out we're just control on. the game we uh we're probably not going. to lose the game we're going to the. playoffs really we might not lose again. rest of the season how do we hey con man.

how do we feel about the Patriots. traveling down to Miami this late in the. season is't that normally an issue yeah. normally an issue but we got the Young. Horses okay Drake may he he is from the. south he he's basically a hay seed he. probably owns some land in Florida and. to be clear with Gumpy sure they might. win but they're not going to cover every. game cuz I love the Patriots with that. number this weekend. [Music]. oh we got some shirts coming down huh. where' that come we just got kids that. have been creeping over our shoulder. here for like the last 20 30 minutes not. awkward at all they've been yelling a.

Tim Mae in the zto hotel rooms out of. nowhere last night BR. violence go broo he's working hard isn't. he yeah you can see it it's a broo does. all right let's go uh let's go to the. next game Denver Broncos Las Vegas. Raiders Broncos favored by six in Las.

Vegas I this Raiders team I I don't know. what to make of the whole season I don't. know what to make of the whole. conversation I don't know what to make. of the trade deadline I don't know what. to make of the future I don't know what. to make of the Raiders at all we love. Max Crosby is he playing is he playing. cuz I I saw McDaniel dunked on him last. week so I didn't know if he was out this. week or not I love that I love lol is. what McD ended with and uh anytime. you're a head coach of an NFL team. saying LOL to somebody on the field you. know you're in a different era and.

that's what the Miami Dolphins are. certainly doing right now I jeez a waste. it is the Bas play they're rocking out. here base players bugged in. [Music]. now I mean if fox wants to play this. game we can play this game I got time. and. money you know and uh thoughts you know. I got ideas and opinions I actually. respect this make keep me alive because. how cold it's getting let's go back to. this game here uh uh Broncos Raiders. I'll take the Broncos minus 6 just. because I feel like Vibes are good for.

them and for the Raiders it's just. question marks everywhere yeah b b. Knicks minus six no question I will take. him and I don't know yeah I have no clue. what the Raiders are ners Packers who. knows what this Line's going to look. like with more information on Brock P. legitimately who knows what that whole. thing's going to like what else did you. say Trent and Bosa to also yeah and Bosa. Bosa I believe oblique hip he he missed. most the the end of last game actually. that's kind of where the tie turned for. Seattle and then yeah Trent Williams. also did not practice yesterday John. Lynch said he did local radio this.

morning he said hey it's probably gonna. be a stretch for all three of these guys. so we'll see Brandon Allen start too. that's gonna go up they said that when. today no sorry if Brock is out it'll be. I saw a report that it would most likely. be Brandon Allen not the ponut yeah. because we'll keep eyes on that and I. assume this line will move depending. upon that information with all that. being said a lot of question marks in. San Francisco Packers just come off a. block kick win that feels like that's. something that can kind of inspire you. Robert suah has been doing great stuff.

with the Green Bay Packers since joining. lefl gun and the boys over there Joe. Douglas fired Salah fired Packers living. the High Life give me the Packers minus. three at home yeah I mean Packers in. Lambo field in November absolutely I. mean all three of them a stretch Bosa TR. Williams and Brock py that's a tough. task for San Francisco that Line's got. to jump up to six or something right. might move I mean if P's out that move. like four and a half five maybe yeah. think so. okay we'll take Packers minus three. right now yeah right now it it uh.

Cardinals Seahawks Seahawks favored by. one at home uh Cardinals coming off a. buy right yeah yeahhuh remember Kyler's. eating pizza in New York and also Kyler. didn't like not playing football which. is good news it's great news actually. that is very I agree especially with the. new Call of Duty up and he's a dog on. the road a good dudy chip on his. shoulder yeah give me Kyler muray give. Kyler muray give me the I'm taking KY. muray yeah absolutely as well I love the. Seahawks though hey love the Seahawks. big win last week Gino Smith doing.

amazing things that Seattle Seahawks. 12th man might be back to now that they. know that they're all the way in it. maybe some things are rolling back in. the right direction I don't think. Arizona Cardinals fans are known for. taking over stadiums just yet hopefully. in a couple years so it's going to be a. tall task but I like the Cardinals. getting a point on the road there and. then let's. go to the is that Monday night Sun. satday Night. Eagles. Rams lot of by weeks yeah this week.

there's six none next week and then six. more week 14 that's the last. one the Eagles are favored by three in. Los Angeles this Philadelphia Eagles. team led by coach serani hey Tai Schmidt. how's coach serani doing today you think. uh probably doing absolutely fabulous. because uh not only are the Eagles fans. going to take over La he got to put his. nut sack on every single person who's. been talking [ __ ] about him on ESPN and. every other sports you know talk show. around the nation Eagles are rolling.

right now next to the Lions probably the. hottest team in football I don't know I. don't know and with the NFC doing what. it's doing right now uh feels like the. Eagles have everything in front of them. still now the Rams still do as well that. NFC West is obviously what it is we. talked about 64 five and five 5 and five. five and5 give me the Philadelphia. Eagles favored by three on the road. Sunday night football I'm excited to see. what Squan Barkley does do Under The. Lights in light Town Los Angeles yeah. I'm going to have to take the Eagles on. this one as well I love their offensive. line I know AQ spotlighted them earlier.

this week um and and showed how physical. they were and watch Sequon run the ball. he sequan expects to score every single. time he touches the ball and I love. watching dude it is cool to watch him do. that cuz there was a thought too fast. too there was a thought by a lot of. people including in the Giants. organization saying running back you. know we can sub him we can get we guys. off the street right we can do it's like. I don't know hey Bruce Brown how do you. feel every day that passes watching. saquon do his thing and then everything. happened over there at the Giants uh I. mean you know this was this season was.

as colossal of a failure that you could. possibly have you basically choose Danny. dimes over paying saquan as well um and. it completely blows up in your face you. don't have either one of them now it's. all all eyes on the draft need shador. Sanders to team up with malague. neighbors and bring back a little bit of. Hope here I think zitto just told me uh. in my there that they added the saquin. jumping Madden that one that thing and. and I would have done that to you you. would have been what what you okay what.

I I would got you off balance and H I'm. doing it I'm jumping over you you I got. to hit you with that boom though yeah. you got to that hard outside step yeah. yeah I got to hit you with that boom so. you spread and then you think with that. big dumb head I got and then no you. don't I'm [ __ ] I'm backwards imagine how. I would I would stand up go right. through your balls and Sh top of my. helmet to my helmet and I'm flipping. yeah that'd be a hell of a play though.

land on my feet and keep running. touchdown if you land on your feet you. deserve a touchdown after that all right. we got about a minute left here boys I. would like you to make the pick for this. particular game AP ton we'll start with. you Ohio State Indiana I took Indiana. plus the 13 but I will take Ohio State. to win the game okay toxic table Tai. Schmidt uh Ohio State Indiana I think. Ohio State's the. cover okay con man Ohio State Indiana I. ain't Banting against a Sig baby light. them up give me a pack right now I'm.

State for making this happen we'll see. you on overreaction Monday Game Day live. tomorrow morning 9:00 a.m. be a friend. tell a friend something nice might. change your life. goodbye I think we hit it I think we hit. it we the 5 Seconds off or we hit it. boys what do you think wait uh for our. clocks it it was 5 Seconds off I don't. know I don't know if we have the same. clocks yeah had a delay so I had a at 54. 55 on this particular thing I thought. there was a chance we out so I had him. out there and then I thought hit both at.

the 55 yeah we'll see you tomorrow for. game day 55 so that that did still you. still hit that on the out so it still. sounded good if our clocks are right but. we don't know what made it on ESPN who. we were actually saying goodbye to which. we all heard it here we did but we don't. know yeah right yeah Bingo yeah all. right boys I'll tell you what I've. thought about peeing my pants about four. different times to get a little bit of. heat that would feel great but anytime.

you do that you know on the other side. is just now wet pants and it cools down. it's even colder yeah yeah you're right. it's real cold it's uh it's been quite. an adversity riddle game big shout out. to zto and Tim for making this. work wet windy cold literally so many. different we had wires out in the rain. we had things out in the rain this is. definitely the toughest week that we've. had here all came together yesterday too. so the fact that you guys pulled this. off without a hitch congratulations you. guys should really be Happ it's a little.

adversity that's all it is can you show. Tim right now cuz my dad looks this is. the softest I've ever seen Tim look you. guys should see he offered me his code. actually earlier I like Tim know you. zoom in there on Tim yeah Tim's been. doing a little dance this entire time. you guys should see him he's dancing he. looks like Chuck this whole [ __ ]. all that's a ma we don't need the world. to see that fine we don't need world see. that he's tough he's got he's got blood. on his shoes in case you're wondering. yeah damn right cuz he murdered a. [ __ ] eighto de you I know no.

absolutely guys know the story oh yeah. yeah we heard the story I thought he. jumped out of the tree stand and got him. in head choked him out he could have he. said he could so the funny thing about. where he went hunting at they told him. to bring his [ __ ] sniper rifle cuz he. might need to shoot 300 to 500 yard. shots okay that's what they told him so. he does yeah and he's in this [ __ ]. tree stand tiny little tree and he says. it's just kind of weaving back and forth. he sit on top of it and then this 8o. Buck just runs right underneath them I.

think that's the easiest shot you've. ever had in your entire life right. that's the easiest of all time cuz. normally Tim Tim puts his [ __ ]. costume in a garbage bag with deer piss. like you're talking about going through. the woods doing a he's actually stalking. these deer like he is hunting we're. walking four mountains in for no reason. at 4:00 a.m. in the morning like that is. what hunting normally is for Tim mcy so. now he meets these guys in Southern. Indiana they're like come on dad might. need to be a 300 500 yard shot Tim's.

like hell yeah hell yeah I've never had. to do that before I'm excited and then. all of a sudden he stand in tree stand. deer comes right underneath him he could. have [ __ ] watch him. and that's what I want to ask if you. dropped an elbow on its head do you. think you would have killed it that's. the question if he would have had proper. now Tim said this a big deal it's a big. it's a biggest so he had more of a. landing space he could have anyways. we're going to be eating venison jerky. at the office for the next two. years imagine the video of Tim falling. out of the tree like screaming and he. grabs it and he's got this deer in a.

rear naked choke and he's hold on hold. on grab his legs and he's yelling that. could have happened and he's getting he. comes he's all bloody the next day. that's what I'm talking about that's. what younger Tim would have done this is. cold older Tim that this is what we're. seeing here soft they're saying you got. soft Tim not them me maybe next time. though I don't think so Tim I he he he. didn't have to use that scope right on. top of that so couldn't use the scope. could cuz it was all yeah and it's like. when you look at if you have binoc on. and I look at you with binoc you're too.

close I can't see that's how he was his. gun he right here I'm right on top of. this right on top of uh Tim mcae thought. he had a little bit of an eye thing. going on and uh a couple weeks ago that. very serious conversation thought he was. going to maybe lose an eye oh but it was. a shooting eye so like the first thing I. told him was like you have to get that. [ __ ] left eye oh IM him having. imagine if his first one would have been. left-handed no on top of the entire he. would have dropped it and happy hunting.

season to everybody out there that is. participating we're R we're I think. we're in it this weekend launches for a. lot of places good luck where I grew up. you missed school the first day for. hunting I mean that was actually that's. an up in Green Bay they people would. come they they like when hunting opens. up they're all they're wearing their. bright you know their orange and. everything camo yeah it's a cool time. man different world. Yeah Tim used to take us out in the. [ __ ] middle well you yeah you scared. a deer to death right was it the deer no. wayte of meat I'm I'm going to talk to. Tim about that no way to meet 30 OD six.

scared that [ __ ] to death that was. three mountains in heart attack heart. attack does heart ATT does a heart. attack mess up the meat though does it. the meat bad no it's even Bish might. tighten meat up a little bit there at. the end yeah couldn't find a deer for. two hours definitely hit it where. where's the Blood trailer fell right. down right down where it was so you shot. so you fired a weapon I'm on mountain. mountain okay I'm on top of mountain. this thing down middle Mountain yeah.

comes up obviously G's excited I'm a. little boy yeah give me one of these. look at that one Pat Easy Shot here too. I mean there was no trees nothing right. out of it okay I'm actually pretty good. shot though like if I believe it so I. probably 13 years old what am I 13 then. probably 13 when I scared the deer to. death 13 probably 30 out 6 which is a oh. yeah kick boom get it there I'm real. excited you know Tim is giving me just. nice and smooth pull that trigger whing.

yeah no problem right over my shoulder. boom right holy [ __ ] deer disappears. Yeah Tim good K jacked up jacked up. weird jack cuz this is. a it's a buck I think it's like six. point maybe six point buck or whatever. out in these mountains you can't be a. big buck because of how much work you. got to go through to get up and down. these [ __ ] mountains so there's no. way there are going to be big. luxurous no way at all so you know so. all of a sudden now now we got to go. track this thing so we start tracking. this thing it's rainy it's not snow so.

we're trying to find blood that's how. you track it no there's no blood at two. hours we're looking this whole Mountain. up and down the mountain up and down and. then all of a sudden we come back up to. get my brother who was posted up. literally almost kicked this thing yeah. it was just in between two logs dead. just right there no exit wound no. entrance wound nothing scared to death. scared death wasted no meat so your. gunshot was so loud and shocking I guess. to this deer that he just boom died on.

the spot died yeah scared live a full. life we a good full life I would like to. say that that deer was going to have a. heart attack at some point somethingone. was going to scare that deer at some. point it just took you kind of sped the. process Bo yeah terrible shot I missed. it I mean it was like you know so. there's a lot of conversation afterwards. with him as I'm dragging this [ __ ]. thing out you know he's looking I man. yeah until you found out the thing. wasn't shot but it was dead two I mean. three four hours I'm saying once you. look at it they're like oh here he is. here's oh here's our deer and then Tim's. like let me see where you got him yeah.

he roll it over and then you have to. field dress this thing that's what I'm. saying though but there's no bullet none. so you knew right away oh you br you do. a little dance scared this thing to. death dad well that's how I had to frame. it in my mind cuz there was a lot of. [ __ ] being thrown my way from missing a. massive deer from about 20 yards away. you know like oh it's hard to be. accurate well not when you're hunting. it's like the whole purpose but I'm. dragging that thing all the way out all. the way out just getting [ __ ] talk to me. the entire time but that's the Mac ifie. difference they weren't laughing when. they were eating that meat Bingo that's. right eat that meat eat that meat and we.

were a household that ate that meat I. mean that thing was in everything that. thing was in you're about to have some. more too much I saw the that thing that. Tim just got from up top is huge his. neck was that his neck was like a couple. couple players I'm trying to think of. what are their names hon you you don't. know the Bands you don't know the band. thing you don't know any nam I know the. fight song I know all that kmen Ohio's. beautiful thing you'll sing they'll put. their arm right after you sing after. Victory what is it what's the song it's.

[Laughter]. it.

hey okay can you um all right yeah can. you seaw walk that was just dude. absolutely know what do you even you get. sturdy you have good knees and hips for. that maybe a little old to be seaw. walking but everything you just did. there got thrown right back in your face. you don't know the Ohio State come on. now I absolutely know them all there's a. first of all there's a bunch of them I. absolutely know the fight song know. Carmen. Ohio you said that but you haven't sang. it yeah I'm not cuz I don't want to sit. here and sing a song solo not Acappella.

I'll go with you who am I Gary laevo the. Rascal Flats come on. now talking about it's a great pull saw. saw him in the game a couple weeks ago. that guy's got a buttery voice he does. have a beautiful voice I would join you. I would join you like I would I would be. the flats you know what I mean would you. You' be Rascal no one's got Rascals. yeah know he can sing like. G got that forever too I I asked him. though do you have to practicing no he. just he just shot a big old deer I saw.

he I think I'm have to ask I think he. might have got right on top of that. sucker and started sing my wish for you. you would be to live a little longer not. going not going to happen if you're. around a Tim will get you Tim's got a. great shot you're really I can see him. on Horseback with a bow yeah prefer that. long hair he's got a crossbow now though. so he's kind of cheating yeah cuz in.

Indiana you can't just shoot rifles. everywhere cuz how flat it is so you got. to do I understand the the the why you. would want to use a crossbow well use it. for a lot of places in Indiana because. it's so flat so but you know like some. people like the die hards oh no you need. to you know you need to recurve whatever. you don't want to crossbows too easy I'm. like good I want it to be easier yeah. he's not doing it to be say he's a bow. hunter he's doing it because can't use. gun you use gun in two weeks a year I. guess that what it is certain gun. certain guns certain gun certain places. certain guns so like that 30 out 6 is. only allowed because there's.

ulation because because that's traveling. bullets go bullets do have to come down. yeah that thing like when people fire. fire in the air like that's coming down. somewhere hopefully not in your head do. those come down what do you think where. do they go the atmos the stratosphere. space probably comes down but actually. no not everything comes down because if. you go you get up in there it's never. coming you choose not to come down yeah. if you're not Eon you don't use your. booster to get back down then you're. stuck up there like that Red Bull guy. that was jumping out of the thing he was. stuck up there you passed out in the.

middle of freef fall I'm happy he came. back to life what if you woke up and you. realized you were like 18,000 fet and go. I got I got to pull a shoot what if he. was just in space that would have been. pretty cool you wouldn't have been there. for long I guess but all right let's get. the hell out of here boys great work. back. there good luck M it's pretty cold I am. having that I stuck with the sleeveless. the entire time hell yeah obviously one. with the beanie had to do it our defend. honor which I still don't think that's. the right way to word that but our honor.
