He's in Norman, Oklahoma for a big. old match up tomorrow. But first, >> nailed it. It's here. It's back. Pat, how do you feel, man? Honestly, last. night, Philadelphia Eagles taking on the. Dallas Cowboys. Unbelievable game. First.

off though, Pat, what's it like there in. in Norman, Oklahoma? You look good, I. guess. I don't I don't know what the. weather might look like. I know you're. there for a big matchup, but what' you. think of last night in this uh this. matchup? I feel like it was a great. game. Well, AJ, thank you for traveling. over there to the Thunderdome with the. boys. It's another Friday of college. football season. It's going to be an. absolutely beautiful thing. Norman, Oklahoma is great. You know, we're in. tornado alley here, so we got a little. rain coming in. The flight this morning. did have a little bumps and roughs, but. it's beautiful out here in God's. country. Cannot wait for tomorrow.

Michigan, Oklahoma. Game day in the. morning. Should be an electrifying day. here in Boomer Sooner World. John Matir, real deal. Uh so is Bryce Underwood. Bryce Underwood just turned 18 like. three weeks ago. Uh he looks like a 45. year old man out on the field. He is he. is certainly a special talent and worth. every dollar that Michigan paid to have. him be their quarterback. Starting. freshman obviously Chiron Moore and the. boys got a couple running backs, you. know, got a offensive line. Are they. back to pounding? I think so. Tomorrow.

should be a great test for the Oklahoma. team who loves Matier. Venable is. obviously settled in his culture here. And we got uh you know the stars are. going to be out. I believe Trey Young, he's the celebrity guest picker. I'm not. sure if that know has been out there. yet. It has been announced. Okay, that's. great news. As Gumpy tells me, I didn't. ruin anything. So, we're excited. Tomorrow should be awesome. Lucky to be. here. You got bells going off. Obviously, you got perfect weather on. the outside, a little bit of a drizzle. It's a magical fall day. And speaking of. a magical day, this morning we woke up.

and we were able to completely overreact. to an NFL game. Congrats to the. Philadelphia Eagles winning and congrats. to the Dallas Cowboys for covering. It. kind of went exactly how we thought it. was going to go. Obviously, the Dallas. Cowboys come out slicing and dicing. Shorty looks like a genius. And his time. management and situational awareness was. phenomenal. Now, Javvante Williams, I. don't think any of us knew that he was. going to be the guy for the Dallas. Cowboys this year. I didn't hear his. name said one time all off season. All. right. Micah talked about a little bit. Eric Shaughny talked about a little bit.

Obviously, Dak is going to get a little. bit of chatter. That guy's the real. deal. the Dallas Cowboys offensive line. without Jaylen Carter in there, which. uh can't do that. Especially opening night, banner night, every camera in the world is going to be. on Dak Prescott, especially you, Jaylen. Carter. You are the guy for this. Philadelphia Eagles defense and have. become that. I think everybody that's. ever played football has somebody's. dropping something. AJ, please don't. break my [ __ ] Uh back there, please.

Please. There's. >> there's a lot of things in a lot of. places. Please don't do that. But Jaylen. Carter, I don't think you can do that. Like, and hopefully this is a moment. And I think his shirt said first year. being rich afterwards. Wherever he gave. his interview, that was what he wore. It's like, hey, it's also your first. year being the guy. You are the. franchise guy for the defensive side of. the ball for the Philadelphia Eagles. I. think this can be quite a learning. lesson that, hey, all eyes are going to. be on him. Later video showed Dak. Prescott sneaking up in between his.

offensive lineman and spitting at the. ground and then laughing in and Jaylen. Carter's face. And obviously once that. video surfaces, everybody's like, "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hold the phone." Now. that kind of you know, he did the Duski. White Hicks spit uh to Jaylen Cer where. he spits on the ground right in front of. them. I think there's a lot of a. difference between spitting on. somebody's chest or sternum versus. spitting on the ground in front of them. But I do appreciate Sunday Night. Football releasing that video like 3. hours later after we all uh very much.

judged Jaylen in the entire process. The. boys are fired up. Jaylen needs to know. he can't be doing that. And now he's. going to become a target to the greatest. [ __ ] talkers on earth. everybody that. they play against is going to try to go. up to Jaylen and immediately piss him. off and just try to get him out of the. game because it was very obvious that he. was not on the field. And that was with. that running game that Shotty did right. down the middle of that Philadelphia. Eagles defense. I don't think anybody. expected that as the game plan because. this dude was going to be on the field.

Instead, he has zero place. So, that. can't happen for the Philadelphia. Eagles. With that being said, Saquon. still Saquin. That offensive line still. that offensive line. Jaylen Herz looks. better than he's ever looked. AJ Brown. didn't even catch a ball until what, 11:45 p.m. last night, and they were. still so damn prolific. I saw Dawson get. a big shot instead of Devonte Smith and. AJ Brown. So, there's still so many. things for this Philadelphia Eagles. offense to kind of open up and Jaylen. Carter being back on the defensive side, changes how they look. So, congrats to. the Philadelphia Eagles getting a huge.

win. And to the Dallas Cowboys, man. Hey, hey, AJ. You ever uh you ever meet. my friend CD? You ever meet my friend. CD? Who? >> CD's nuts, guys. >> We saw his drops. We saw his drops. CD's. drops. It It was not good. And. obviously, we all have immense amount of. respect for CD Lamb, which is why the. response is what it is. Whenever he does. some things that are very out of the. ordinary for him, especially in. game-winning situations, when this ball. is dropped over top in a bucket, 2420,

and CD drops, not this one, the next. one, I believe, uh, that's about to. happen. This one. Bang. 245 left. 24-20. Dak steps up in pressure, puts it on you. like that. Like that can't happen. CD. knows that can't happen. Uh Dak. understands that that's not going to. happen going forward. But that's kind of. the story of the game is the fact that. there was a couple big time plays that. the Dallas Cowboys could have made and. won this game. And if they exit that. game and he's CD, once again, you're. going against your own uh reputation and.

expectations. Everybody thinks you're. going to catch that. every wide receiver. number one around the league I think. catches that in that moment just as. we're doing it. So CD has an off night. at the end even though he had a massive. first half. I think he will not do what. he did. I like the Dallas Cowboys too. I. like the Dallas Cowboys. I like their. vibe. I like everything they had last. night. And uh the Philadelphia Eagles. get a win on banner night which is. obviously big for the city. >> Yeah. Hey Pat, when you're watching the. Cowboys the first drive I'm sitting here. thinking of the North Carolina game.

Remember North Carolina TCU? see that. I'm like, "Hey, all right. Maybe the. Cowboys can be consistent. They can keep. this up and it's not going to be a. one-off." And I feel like for the most. part, they did keep it up. But the weird. How do you think the delay, the whole. lightning delay, that's the old cliche. question. Who did it help more? Who. needed that lightning delay more? Who. who came out better after after the. other side? >> Well, I thought it was going to be me. Like I thought, okay, this is an excuse. for me to fall asleep. Okay, cuz they. said they said it was like going to be. 47 or 57 minutes at the beginning. And I. don't know, they don't got Oonardo Arena. Dolphin, so I had no idea how they were.

going to be that accurate. It ended up. being 65 minutes in total, I believe, of. a delay. And every time I tried to fall. asleep, I was just like, nah, this is a. really close game here. 24-20 in the. third quarter. It's opening night. I can. power through this. I could say I. watched till the end. I'm very pumped. about that. I don't know how often. that's going to take place on some of. these games, especially if there's a 65. minute delay. But yeah, I I think you I. think both offenses lost their luster. Obviously, there's no points scored. afterwards. I tried to do a giveaway, something random in the Thunderdome. >> Yeah. >> I was like, "Hey, who who's going to be.

the final scorer?" Because the over at. 47 not hitting is just absolutely. absurd. I think it's like 173 and one. now for 50 points uh to be scored after. 40 points uh was scored in the first. half or something like that. Some. ridiculous stat like that should have. went over. It does not go over. But I. just wanted to know who's going to score. the final who's gonna be the final point. scorer. Is it going to be a kicker? Is. it going to be a touchdown? Is it going. to be what a run? What is it going to. be? How is this game going to end? Because we all saw coming down to the.

final, you know, kind of final drive. And then at the bottom, I just added. this in cuz I saw myself getting. bamboozled by people that would just put. uh whoever just scored at the moment. I. forget who it was. Must be another point. scored. There wasn't. So, I mean, that. that was a wild thing to stay awake for. No more points. But there were certainly. a lot of uh plays that were, you know, substantial to the season. I think as a. whole and Optat says, "Yeah, first eight. drives, both teams at tonight's Cowboys. Eagles game all ended with points. The. last eight drive ended with no points.". It's come on, it's.

>> the only NFL game in the last 30 years. start with eight consecutive scoring. drives and end with eight consecutive. non-scoring drives. So all the over. betters, uh, like we were pushing, we. got screwed. Everything else though, Jaylen Herz touchdown, Saquon touchdown, Dallas Cowboys cover, Philadelphia. Eagles win. Feels like we're seeing the. board pretty [ __ ] good, AJ, doesn't. it? It feels like we're kind of maybe. seeing it a little Yeah, we're. definitely seeing I mean the over it's. unreal to me the over did not hit. >> Uh but for me like Jaylen Herz, how. special is this dude? Multiple times you. have a fourman rush for Dallas and we.

we've seen it a million times in the. back end. They're matching up or their. their back is turned because they're in. man or some kind of match coverage. Four. guys. Oh, all of a sudden somebody peaks. inside where their DN gets gets. collapsed down, whatever it might be. Jaylen Herz is so athletic and he's so. calm in the pocket too that he can buy. time buy time and he turns and run. Guess what? My back's already turned. I'm chasing my guy down the field and. that happened multiple times last night. I feel like at the worst times for the. Dallas Cowboys. So, credit to the Eagles. and how they do it. But, man, you have. to find a way to contain him and bottle. him up and keep him in that pocket.

>> Oh, yeah. I think Pat's got a sweet. situation going with his his microphone. >> Yeah, just just change the mic. Yeah, he. he's a weapon, dude. And like. >> look how calm he's so calm in the. pocket. Like he just has like that. pocket awareness and then obviously the. athletic ability and the strength to to. get like not only he can run through. you, he run around you. I just love his. presence in the pocket. >> and he got Don, you know, like there was. there was multiple times where he slid. this time. I love him going for it. It's. like and you watch the way he reacts. afterwards. Guy's already won a Super.

Bowl. >> He's already been a national champion. He's done it all. He's very comfortable. being the guy who he is, you know, and. Sirani, he didn't have a lot of emotion. last night. I mean, I mean, he was. pretty he was pretty stoic throughout. the entire evening. I think that banner. night had a lot of pressure on him. con. man. I I think there was a lot of. thoughts about the last banner night and. the Eagles getting booed out of the. stadium and whenever Dallas comes out. and isn't just a dead fish like. everybody had predicted, you know, Sirani knows he's in the middle of it. Feels like his guys are ready to repeat.

though, honestly. Landon Dickerson. leaving. Don't love that. >> Don't love that. That that's going to be. a big deal potentially going forward. But I like where this Eagles team feels. maturity-wise. You know what I mean? >> Oh yeah. No doubt about it. Like even, you know, a big story for people today. is, you know, AJ Brown and Devonte. Smith, they're going to, you know, request trades because they didn't get. enough passes. They were blocking their. ass off. I I thought that was kind of. the coolest part. Another guy, you know, when we were another guy, if you will, when we were talking about this Eagles O. line, you know, hey, it's not the same. old line, Mai Beckton's gone. Landon.

Dickerson's hurt. Cam Jurgens was. running wild yesterday. There was a few. times that he that he was coming around. the corner, whether it was on a Jaylen. run, but he was finishing uh dudes on. the offensive line, pause as they say, but it was a fantastic game. Just the. start to it, you know, right away the. Cowboys um or the broadcast showed. there's Cam Jurgens getting after it. The broadcast showed Trevon Diggs and I. want to say Bland standing right next to. Matt Iberloose during the national.

anthem and then you hear Jerry after the. game talking about how like yeah we all. really really wanted to get this one for. Shotti. So, it does feel like that. Cowboys team, whether they, you know, the Micah leaving brought them together. or whether the off seasonason they've. been together the whole time, it was. incredible. But with the Eagles, it does. feel as though it's like a repeat. You. know, it feels kind of like the Chiefs. Ravens last year where the Chiefs win, but after the game, you're still saying, "Hey, the Chiefs and Ravens are both. going to be great this year." And I I I. damn near have the same feeling,

especially when you see Cowboys left. tackle throwing left hooks in a rival. game against the Eagles. Yeah. Unbelievable. >> Love that. Yeah. I think both these. teams are in the playoffs, right? Yeah. We all feel like. >> we all think that now. >> And yeah, injury free. You're right. Because Mike McCarthy said, "If they get. lucky, well, hell." Hey, Dak stays. healthy. Everything they want to do is. possible. And I'll say it, Dak looked. unbelievable. Dak, I think I forgot. about Dak. And I like that Dak is. getting in Jaylen Carter space. >> I like that. You know, like Jaylen. Carter, he's a rhino. Like he actually.

is maybe the strongest guy in the NFL. Also toughest, everything like that. And. Dak is just like, "Nope, this ain't. happening." Gets in his face. I respect. that. Now, the spit at the dirt, you. know, and Jaylen Carter answering it and. spitting right on his neck. I mean, it's. going to be something I don't I love. Jaylen Carter, the football player. I. really do. But this was a stupid This. was stupid. Like thinking nobody would. see it, you know, cuz he thought he was. casual cuz he like puts his head down. and he like casually spits that thing.

right where he's going to feel it. You. know, you spit here, not going to feel. it as much. Might hit a thing. right. here. He's going to feel that thing. So, he, you know, the the Lug the Hawk. >> Oh, yeah. >> Right to the Adams apple is where he. knows he's not protected. It's like. whenever you're fighting in in football. and you're trying to get a fist. somewhere. We need to hit somewhere. where the helmet isn't. He was doing the. same thing with his spit. Okay. Where do. I need to go? Bang. I need to hit him. right. Yep. He's going to feel it. I. want that on his skin. But I think he. thought nobody was going to see it. It's. like Jaylen.

>> Everybody's going to see that. And look. at the old buddy there, the trainer. He's sitting there. What was that? You. know, >> holy [ __ ] A little bit of D. Are we. fighting this guy right here? You know, I uh. >> How much you going to get fined? You. think? What's that fine look like? >> Wow. Pretty good. >> I saw a lot of people calling for him to. be suspended a couple more games. >> He actually handed it well afterwards. He handled it well. I know the shirt you. said he was wearing. But how he what he. said? Well, I felt like he said the. right thing. This will not happen again. It was on all that stuff. He he he said. he to his credit, I guess he did have. four quarters and a lightning delay to.

try to get his thoughts together. What. he's going to say. >> He did his time though. And he's lucky. >> whenever you whenever you do something. stupid though like this was stupid. >> Yeah. >> Everybody wants to hear you say I was. stupid. Whenever he's walking off and. smiling, you know, cuz I think he's just. mind blown that the situation's. happening, but you see a lot of people. on the internet. He see you don't even. know like that. I don't think that was. his reaction. Like I think his reaction. was like I can't believe this first. night obviously and he is the guy on the. defense. So, like I think him smiling.

turned some people off and I think. anything he would have said at the end. of the game nobody wanted to hear. But. big Dom getting him out of there and I. think like like I think that's him going. like I can't believe this as opposed to. like. >> he just said oh my god. >> not understanding for sure. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Like I think he does. know that this was stupid as [ __ ] Like. I I I I think he understands that them. being able to get a win. >> Yeah. >> against a division opponent without him. >> I mean has to feel good. And if you're. Jaylen Carter, >> you save four quarters worth of bumps. Yep. you know, he he's he's all of a.

sudden got a 16 game season now and it's. like he's actually hurt the rest of the. NFL that Jaylen Carter got arrested out. there. But what a great start, man. Honestly, Tariq and Collinssworth. thought they were throwing their fast. ball. They even had to fill a bunch of. time. >> Sunday night countdown had to fill a. bunch of time. I thought it was uh I. thought it was a great night. The. 65minute delay almost being accurately. predicted by whoever was on the Doppler. also very impressive. So, I think it was. a great night in total, Ty. I I. genuinely do.

>> No, I agree. And I think, you know, you're talking about Serriani not having. very much emotion. Like, I think you you. hit the nail on the head. Like, they. know, hey, if we stay healthy, you just. look at our roster, our makeup after. what we accomplished last year. Like, we. are we're probably the best team in the. NFL on paper at least. And uh and I. think walking away from that with. everything else that's going on. And. even I, you know, a couple of guys I. think said after the game last night. like, "Hey, we're done with the Micah. stuff. like stop asking us questions. about Micah. Ask us about the 2025. Cowboys. Like that that's over and done.

with. I think they played really well. when you know that was kind of everyone. was waiting for that to be the story. this morning that they could throw it. back in Jerry's face. But I think after. watching that you walk away thinking. like wow the you know the Eagles if. everything goes right should be right. there to win another Super Bowl. And the. Cowboys are they're impressive. they. they don't look like a shell of. themselves and like you said if they. stay healthy they should be a team that. that could be vying for you know one of. those seven playoff spots and if Dak has. the type of season you know that he.

expects to have and what we heard from. McCarthy like this team could go deep in. the playoffs. >> Yeah, it'd be crazy if the Dallas. Cowboys were to go deep in the playoffs. but shout to Shotty. I didn't see any. situational dumb dumbs either. Had all. three timeouts late. >> Okay, which is huge. Obviously you're. going to need that. didn't feel like he. forced anything. Felt like he stayed. committed to the run. You know, it was. like I was pretty proud of Shotty. actually on the big stage. And then all. the stories about his dad and him and. them showing him during the national. anthem where he was clearly having a.

full conversation with his dad. >> and like getting emotional. It was like. I'm almost getting choked up thinking. about it right now. It's like that was a. huge night with a lot of distractions. for the Dallas Cowboys, for Shotti, for. everybody. And obviously for the. Philadelphia Eagles, you can do it as. well. I thought they played great. I. did. And if CD, who always makes those. plays, makes those plays, we're having a. completely different conversation today. And I got some tweets. I got a tweet. I. sent it to you guys. The guy said, "We're going to spend 15, 20 minutes or. whatever acting like Dallas had a. chance." They did.

>> They should have won. >> That guy fell asleep. That's how I fell. asleep. He did not He did not watch the. post uh rain delay. Uh Tone, what was. the Gumblers last night? Cuz we hit all. of us hit except for. >> But I think we were abnormal, right? I. we won like four or five on our [ __ ]. which is not we AJ we need to be happy. about this we need to be happy about. this. >> yeah I believe me the the flying high. has not we have not come down my friend. we did a little bit during that delay. but yeah we've we've remained up here.

for quite some time but to your point I. think a majority of the money was Eagles. right. >> uh yeah and and Connor actually said. this morning I we're going to see it. this year boys is exactly what he said. and to your point uh Pat about shotty. too that two-minute drive right before. half was awesome too when they got the. field goal right there. They looked like. they everything was perfect for them. that last night except for, you know, the couple mistakes that killed them. But as far as gambling wise, um yes, 62%. was on the Eagles, so they lost as far. as covering that. But the big break of. the night was that like 75 80% of people.

were on the under. So a a lot of people, I think, maybe went to bed last night. thinking that they were screwed. Uh but. then uh they were not because that was. one of the wildest thing. I even sent. out a tweet like, "All right, under's. good or sorry, over's good or whatever.". >> Oh, wait. Yeah, it's your fault. Come. on, man. >> You know that. >> What? You piece of [ __ ]. >> Why did you do that? >> I didn't exactly say it was I I. insinuated it was good. I don't know. >> Tweet. >> What's your problem? >> Tape here, Tony. >> I said, >> "What's your problem?". >> I said, "Uh, obviously hasn't gone over.

yet, but the overall was felt pretty.". >> Shut up. Just. >> save it. I I appreciate how active. everybody was last night on X, by the. way. We were a good follow so bad as a. team. >> I think as a team we were a very good. follow. Everybody kind of ch it was. great to be in there with you guys and. uh had to post the photo after the delay. just letting [ __ ] know I'm. still up. I just want to let Yeah. Got a. kid. Got a kid. Got travel early in the. morning, you know. Got the whole thing. still up because how much we love ball.

There was a couple 15-second commercials. I powered through too to watch football. So call me a [ __ ] hero. Joining us. now, ladies and gentlemen, a man who is. going to be on your television for the. next 6 months, every damn day. He's a. dog. Former teammate of ours. Ladies and. gentlemen, the quarterback guru for all. of sports entertainment, Danielski. [Music]. >> Daniel, what up? Oh, loose tie. We're in. a car. We're so cool. Yeah. How are you. doing, brother? >> I'm good, man. I'm good. You just called.

yourself an effing hero. Yeah, it's. because I watched 15 seconds of. commercials a few different times last. night and kept the game on because I. like watching and you should see what I. do with Red Zone, too. I'm gonna watch. it. >> Yeah, >> I'm watch. I don't know if you should say that. >> All those people that are saying. horrendous things to me, let's talk on. Monday. See if you watch Red Zone. Channel. Okay, if you did, I would like. apologies because that's what I was. meaning. I guess I didn't say it. accurately enough to your liking, but.

there's a lot of people calling me a. Disney shill for saying I'm still going. to watch Red Zone because they're having. four 15-second commercials. It's like. whenever this finally gets over to ESPN. and Disney, our show's more than likely. not even going to be on ESPN. So to to. act like that is what we are doing is an. absolutely absurd thing. Nonetheless, can't wait to watch Red Zone. If you. don't watch it, I think you're going to. miss it. I think I think if you're a red. zone watcher, you would have already. known that ads were in last year. And. also, I think you'll say that 15 second.

break actually gave me a chance to uh. check my phone. Got to take got to take. a piss, look at another game. And I. think the NFL knows that they have us, Dan. And the NFL knows that they have. us. Don't love it. Wish there was. nothing, but they know that they have. us. Let's talk about the game last. night. Great start for the NFL stars. showing up. AJ Brown and Dvonte Smith, I. guess not much, but every other star. that you know played big last night. Shotti didn't make any dumb decisions. Siri seemed to be super locked in. Jaylen Herz played out of his mind as. did Dak Prescott. For you, perfect start.

to the NFL season. And what is something. we should think about? >> Yeah, I think the big takeaways if. you're Philadelphia is one, Jaylen was. perfect. I mean, as you you play as. perfect a game as you can given what's. asked of you. I think he had four. incompletions. Three of them are drops. and then one's a throwaway. So, you. know, 19 and 19 is pretty sensational. And I think this like carried the team. in many ways. They didn't dominate. running the football or running the. football that the receivers weren't a.

massive part of it. But, you know, I. think and I've learned this and kind of. evolved with my thoughts on Jaylen and. my perspective of him is like he just is. the one of those guys that just seems to. do whatever it takes to win the football. game and whatever it takes to have that. play be successful and win that football. game because, you know, Dallas, I don't. know what the numbers are, but Dallas. seemed to play a ton of zone coverage. and just keeping everything in front of. them. Contrast to what Dallas used to be. under Dan Quinn and Zim, it was like man. pressure, man pressure, man pressure.

This was just zone after zone after zone. and the lack of rush discipline, you. know, when no one's open, quarterback. has to throw the football, wait for a. seam, and then when those defensive. linemen get on different levels, that's. when he hurt you. And so I think if. you're feeling like our quarterback. looked absolutely fantastic. Um, I think. the second thing is, you know, one, the. defensive penalties, I'm not telling. everyone like overly concerned about. them, but they got to be addressed. those nine penalties I think for over a. hundred yards like what are we actually.

doing? So I think from like that. perspective you're going defensive. penalty you didn't love and then. opposite Quin Mitchell has to be a. conversation Jaylen Carter is going to. impact how long a quarterback can hold. the football no doubt he's defensive. player of the year candidate but if. everybody I talked about it all day. yesterday everyone knew like hey they're. going to throw the ball off say Quiny. Mitchell and then that comes out and. does it basically all game that's got to. have your attention and so that I'm not. sitting there saying it's panic mode but. that's got to have your attention so you. play your C game and win if you're.

Philadelphia. That's got to feel good. Uh I think if you're Dallas, you got to. be crazy encouraged. Um one, you beat. yourself. So that's, you know, how do. you want to look at it? But you four. drops and the fumble. The Miles Sanders. fumble. Shout out to Zack Bond. The play. by Zack Baughn is absolutely phenomenal. >> But the Miles Sanders fumble's huge. because it doesn't happen unless Zack. tracks him down. And like seeing where. Bond comes from is nuts. So, you beat. yourselves if you're a little bit from. Dallas, but you go, man, shotty had us.

operating. I heard you guys talk about. it. We looked like a competent football. team. Uh, operation, they were all over. it. The interior part of your offensive. line looked very good. Again, no Jaylen. Carter, so that factors in, but you're. trying, you know, positives. Dak looked. great. I thought Dak looked better last. night. Dak looked better last night than. he did at any point last season. Uh, and. I actually thought the run defense was. solid, you know, like solid. So, um I. think there's a lot of encouragement if. you're with with Dallas as well. >> Dano, if if you're playing against, say.

you're Dallas defense, you're playing. against Jaylen Herz. We saw how many. times he can he can hurt you with his. feet and his presence in the pocket when. they when someone would peak or they. collapse inside one of those edge. rushers and give him a giant lane and. maybe the defender's backs were turned, whatever the coverage was, like what. would you do if you're trying to play. Jaylen Herz? What would teams in the. future, what can they do to try to stop. this guy? >> Well, isn't that what they're supposed. to do, too? Like isn't that the that's. supposed to be the answer, right? Is. zone with eyes on the quarterback, right? >> To me, it looked like their backs were. turned a lot chasing guys. If they're. playing zone, we're here. We're looking. at quarterback the whole time and we're. dro we might drop at an angle, but our.

eye we got we have all we probably have. six underneath guys with our eyeballs on. the quarterback in case he runs. >> Yeah, it it seems AJ like this clip, it. seems like this has a lot of match. personality or principles to it. like, you know, for everybody. Yeah, AJ could. speak to it better than me, but you're. playing zone defense and then when a. person on the other team, receiver, tight end, back comes to your area, you. match them. So, it becomes a man type of. coverage. I think in these situations, your rush just has to be crazy.

disciplined. You know, you have to force. him to stay within the pocket and then. you have to have a spine. I asked Bruce. today, I'm like, why no spine? He's. like, well, then I'm taking somebody. away from coverage. And so obviously a. huge conversation last night is man AJ. Brown gets one target and you know. Devonte Smith has has only three catches. but that's the style of defense that. Dallas was playing. You know Dallas. decided under Iberloo they were going to. play in that shell umbrella coverage. They were going to keep the ball in. front of them. They weren't going to.

give you the opportunity to throw that. go ball down the field to AJ Brown 101. and and they were they were going to. minimize that part of the game. If you. think about like the only ball that goes. over their heads is Dotsim. But I go. back to last year. I mean, think about. how they start the Super Bowl. Kansas. City just lined up and played man. coverage and it was like shot down the. field, shot down the field. So that's. that's the the beast that you're playing. against. And so I think a lot of the. conversation around the wide receivers. is is unwarranted given how the defense. played. I thought the quarterback did.

what he was supposed to do on those. plays given what the defense did. I. don't know if there's a perfect way to. play him, AJ. You know, like you got to. have really good rush discipline, I. would imagine. Obviously, incredibly. sticky coverage and then you got to be. great when it comes to pursuit of him. So, uh he's he's he played high high. level football decision-m wise last. night. >> And doesn't everybody just assume that. he's only going to get better and better. because his work ethic is absurd? That's. all everybody says. His work ethic is. insane. He's obviously his dad was a.

coach. So like the way he views every. single day, he's just trying to get. better and better and better. And. there's obviously a lot of people on the. internet that don't want to give him a. lot of credit because he's wildly. handsome, very cool, and incredibly. successful. And uh he'll wear a kangle. hat backwards every once in a while. So. there's a lot of things he does, I. think, that people just go, "This guy. can't be this perfect." But when it. comes to being an NFL quarterback, he. seems to be perfect for Nick Serriiani. in this Philadelphia Eagles offense. And. uh watch him last night was sweet. because he clearly looked better than.

he's looked ever. And the same thing. with Dak. Now, a couple things uh to. kind of hit about last night before we. move to another game with Danlovski. Uh. it was said by Tariq last night about. the K balls. Like you saw Jake Elliot. hit like a 56 yard or 58 yard and that. thing hit like three quarters up the. net. Brandon Aubrey obviously has a. massive leg. Teams are now allowed to. bring their own payballs to the game. Okay. So, it used to be a rule where. teams could bring their own K balls and. then it got a little ridiculous. Kickers. started putting them in like washers and.

dryers and these things became like. rugby balls. >> And then all of a sudden, one of those. accidentally got put into the field of. play. A quarterback had to throw it. I. think it was Brad. I'm not 100% sure, but it was a notable quarterback in a. notable situation. A Kball got onto the. field. It was so big, so slick. Threw a. pick. So then they cracked down on K. balls. Then it was brand new footballs. were what everybody was kicking straight. out of the box, straight onto the tea. That's what you're going to kick. All. the kickers and punters and special. teams coach were like, "Exc this is. [ __ ] This is not good." So then.

they made a rule for like 10, 15 years. where equipment managers, one from each. team, would have a 30 minute time frame. before the game where they would go into. a locker room, there would be an NFL. official watching them. They were. allowed to have one brush, one bottle of. water, and they had 30 minutes to break. in seven bowls. So, our guy Frog had. great Christmases because he was. probably the best in the entire league. at breaking in these balls. But then we. play against somebody else or another. team that had a shitty ball breaker,

that ball would make it onto the field. And when it comes from like a brand new. ball to a well broken in ball, which is. what these guys are going to be able to. take into the game, Froggy was able to. break it in about halfway. Okay. So, like from brand new ball to what Froggy. was able to do, probably like seven, eight yards. 78 yards for a ball that's. getting brought into the game. Now, it. has to get stamped uh of approval. It. can't just be the rugby ball that they. had back in the day, but they're allowed. to bring their practice balls and if. they pass the test that the refs are. giving, I think it's a 10 to 15 yard.

swing for kicking and for punting. I. think this is a big deal. I think I. think this is very very good for the. brand. And I think you're going to see. some long long kicks this year. Huge. punts as well. This also affects the. punt game massively. Hang times are. going to be absurd. Confidence is going. to be at a different level as well. because me as a punter, whenever I catch. a ball and it feels like an absolute. like this ball wants to be murdered, you. know, it feels like it's broken in. You're just going to hit it like. mentally so much harder. So, I think.

this year with that rule change, it's. going to affect things and I think. you're going to see a great year from. the kickers. Now, >> kickoffs too, Pat, will that will that. affect kickoffs, too? Will it be harder. for guys to field those balls or will. they not use them for kickoffs? >> Uh, no. They'll still use those balls. for kickoffs and it might be slick for. returners. Yeah. I didn't even think. about like the punt returners having to. kind of deal with it. It's not about the. slickness. It's just about how broken in. it is. It's not really like a new ball. has ridges like where it where it's sewn. together. It's like there's road like. the ridges rise up a little bit. That's. why they you're right. Those guys that. break the balls and like you said, Frog.

like they are invaluable. If you find a. good one, they. >> get whatever they need. >> Body I Yeah. Me. Well, Vinnie kind of. told me the game. Vinnie is the one. Adam Venitary is the one that kind of. gave me the whole story about what it. used to be. We used to be able to use. whatever balls we wanted, brother. We It. was awesome. Then somebody, you know, abuse leads to restriction. >> Can I ask you a question on Gohead? >> Can I ask you a question about the. return stuff? Did I didn't know about it. until we met with the, you know, you. could put three returners back now. You. know, that's they're they're trying to,

you know, continue to evolve the the the. kickoff that you teams are now, it's. legal to have three returners back this. season. You think anybody does that this. weekend? If so, >> definitely. Uh, and also I think you're. going to see a lot of like creative. kicks from the kickers trying to land it. in the landing zone. The 35 yard line is. insane to just sacrifice with a. touchback. I think last night you saw a. lot of different tries of kicks and. styles of kicks. You saw some. mishandling. The one one guy back for. Dallas was interesting, but obviously. it's Turpin. You're going to want him to. get the ball regardless. So, I I think.

you're going to see a lot of creative. [ __ ] this year cuz that's what they're. looking for right there. And if that was. to skirt through the end zone there. after landing in the landing zone and. then go through the end zone, that. touchback comes at a 20, which is old. school, which is what everybody that's a. 15 yard. >> advant that's a first down and a half. advantage if you can get a kicker that. can hit like a a nasty squib that can. go. Now grant, if you hit a squib, there's a chance it lands early, then it. goes to the 40. So there's a lot of I. think they're I think they are making it. better. I think they are making it.

better. All right, let's pivot away from. last night's game and kicking and. punting. just know it's gonna be a great. year for the brand new year for Jake. Elliott hit that ball almost over the. net from 58. It was like I love what. we're seeing here and I got a lot of. texts from a lot of people around the. league that are like brother this is. awesome like this is even the snappers. like the snappers knowing the ball that. they're going to snap cuz the newer ball. is actually more slick because there's a. film on it. >> than the ones that are a little broken. in. Nonetheless, let's move forward the. rest of the NFL. Go ahead Ty Schmidt. about Dan Olowski complimenting folks.

Yeah, Dan, uh, on your, you know, Shrager's prediction special yesterday, you mentioned that you think, uh, Jordan. Love is going to win the MVP this year, and, you know, when you just look at the. Packers last year, riddled with drops. They had a lot of them. They're hoping. Matthew Golden, I guess, is going to be. the number one guy, and they're kind of, I mean, Josh Jacobs is the bellcow. there. He's kind of the centerpiece of. the offense. So, I guess I'm just. curious, why do you think Jordan Love is. going to uh, win MVP this year? And is. that maybe just, you know, excitement.

around the Packers with, you know, Micah. Parsons getting there and now everyone's. kind of picking them to go to the Super. Bowl? >> No, I think one it's, you know, the. health has got to be a huge part of. Jordan. So that that's a given thing, but I think I would go through the depth. that they have and the, you know, I had. someone say that Matthew Golden was like. a Steve Smith. type of a wide receiver. So, I'm going, okay, if if your perspective of him is. he's got a similar playing style, I'd.

love that. I still think like Reed is a. really good player to me. I just think. they've got five really good wide. receivers. I think they got two really. good tight ends. I think their offensive. line is going to continue to be one of. the better offensive line. So, like all. the things that a quarterback needs to. have to play well supporting Cassie has. Laflur's play calling and scheme is. fantastic. And I think the addition of. Micah will make Laflur even more. aggressive throwing the football. I My. perspective of it is this, Ty. Like they. didn't throw it a ton last year. I think.

they were like bottom five or bottom. seven in the NFL when it came to, you. know, uh throwing the football usage. wise, but they're top five or top six. when it comes to execution wise or or. efficiency wise. So I'm going, okay, you. didn't do it a ton last year again. injury. um I think you'll do it more. because the effectiveness of it and then. I just believe Mike is a game wrecker. And so if I'm the offensive coach and I. have a guy that I know can wreck the. football game and being added to a.

defense that's good, I'm going, well, let's get more aggressive on offense. because the one thing I want to do is. get that guy to be a pass rusher. And. the one thing I even have more comfort. of doing then is if Jordan is overly. aggressive, and sometimes he can be with. the football and we turn the ball over, dude, we just gave up two first round. picks. go get it back. So, I just think. it it it transfers the thought whole. thought process of how they want to play. all football offensively. And it's like, let's be ultra aggressive on offense. We've got the people. We've got the. protection. We've got the quarterback.

who can do it. We got the play caller. who can. And if something bad happens, we just got a game record added to a. defense that became a top 10 defense. last year. Go get the ball back for us. because dude, if we give you a a. two-score lead in the second half, it. should be blouses. And so I just think I. like. >> I like that you're saying that because. you probably have some inside sources. there telling you that that's what. they're thinking. But let me tell you. what I'm thinking and Ty, you tell me if. I'm right or wrong as an owner of the. Green Bay Packers. They got Josh Jacobs. there still. >> Yep. >> Yep.

>> I think you get Micah. We're just trying. to get a lead, right? Aren't we just. trying to get a lead however we can get. it? And then you let Micah Hunt. That's. kind of like the old Indianapolis Colts. the fact that they have Josh Jacobs as. like a luxury basically with all the. other weapons that you're talking about. >> I like the Packers a lot. It's all on. Jordan Love though, isn't it? It's all. on Jordan Love. Is he a guy? Y. >> you think he's a guy? >> Obviously, >> I do. I I do. I think he's I think he's. supremely talented. Um he's obviously. got a ton of experience under his belt.

now. And I just I think it's that that. year that they've got all the people. around them. they've got all the. necessary roles or people that fill. those roles. I'm a fan of his and and. part of it too like. I I just believe that that scheme is is. perfect a fit for like his physical. skill set. >> Oh, you're done speaking, Dano. Dano, when you look around Christian. McCaffrey, sorry, sorry, I thought you. were still going on that one. Hey, you. see this. >> inside voices there coming out ahead?

>> So, you see this Christian McAffrey. news. We see he's what added the injury. report. What is it? Achilles foot, I. don't know exactly, but calf. >> How worried are you? What are your. insiders telling you? We know you got. people dialing in at every single uh. facility in the NFL, but what is this. offense if Christian McAffrey is not out. there somewhere close to 100%. >> Yeah, this is no insider information. I. I just I don't I'm not overreacting to. it. I know he's dealt with calf I think. in the past. Believe the season was like. Achilles tendinitis and maybe calf was.

part of a training camp last year or the. year before. I'm hoping it's not um kind. of a long-term thing and it's just a. precaution. I will say this, his impact. on Brock Pie's performance is. substantial. There's probably not a back. in the NFL that has the amount of impact. on the quarterback's ability to play as. much as McAffrey does on perie. When. McCaffrey is on the field, Pertie's one. of the best quarterbacks in football. When McCaffrey is off the field, he's. not as successful. And so I I just think. for for the 49ers and an organization.

that's dealt with a lot of injuries here. in the last two or three years, I'm. hoping it's cautious and them just being. extra careful with it because Brock. Brock becomes one of the best. quarterbacks in football when McAffrey. is on the field and it's just a harder. road for him when he's not. >> Them doing this putting him on the. injury report thing after all the. fantasy football drafts for a second. straight year. >> Yeah. I mean, they're not trying to win. anybody over, you know, and it's like.

they're not trying to win anybody over. as somebody who may or may not have. Christian McCaffrey just because if. Christian McAffrey is in the lineup, I. think they're going to have success. Like, that is just that is what it is. If Christian's playing, I believe in the. San uh San Francisco 49ers. I like their. defense. I love Brock Pury, love. Shanahan, love everything about it. But. if you don't have a great running back. in that particular offense, I don't. think you're going to be as good. I. think that was proven last year. Now, is. it Brock Pury that needs to step up? maybe. But I don't like this coming out. like this. I I I I don't like this at.

all. And uh I think our message to CMC. is, brother, we hope to God you're. playing football this year. We missed. him last year. We missed him greatly. And I know there's going to be a lot of. people like that. Now, Brock Pury, I. think he has a huge bounceback year. If. this guy is playing, I think he'll get. the respect that he is warranted and. obviously he's getting the paycheck that. he has earned in this entire thing. There's other quarterbacks that a lot of. people have high hopes for. Go ahead, Tone. >> Yeah, Dan, we are blessed. Sunday Night. Football, we get the two guys who you. wanted to split the MVP last year in. Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson. It's going.

to be an incredible game. Obviously. that, but like big picture, Lamar and. Josh. Do one of them have to win the. Super Bowl this year? Like which one of. those two has more pressure on it or is. it just insane pressure on both of them? >> No, it's Lamar. I don't think there's a. organization or a team that has more. pressure on them than Baltimore. >> It's okay for us to say that. That's not. being a hater. This. >> You picked him to win the Super Bowl. You picked him to win the Super Bowl, by. the way. >> I did. >> So did I. >> I did. And like here's the thing. Little. bit of a hat. Little bit of a hater.

>> No, I've had you like little bit. >> little bit of a hater. Just paid everybody. >> The opposite of a hater. A congratulate. What's the opposite of a hater? Like I'm. the opposite of that when it comes to. >> a lover. >> Lover. >> All right. Here. Here's this is this is. what I'm saying. >> Okay, >> I've had the privilege to say it with. Lamar. Lamar's cool to talk to. Lamar. does not run from the fact that like he. has to win a Super Bowl. He has said. that multiple times. He doesn't run from.

it. This is an organization that sits. right now. Okay, they have a coach who's. won the Super Bowl. They have five first. round picks in their secondary. They. have a quarterback who's a two-time MVP. Bud, >> they have a roster 1 through 53 that is. >> arguably the best in football and. arguably the best in their conference. >> What? >> There's there's not many better. situations or setups for for teams to go. win the Super Bowl. >> Chuck Pagan. >> Okay. So, I understand that there's a.

mountain, you know, in relation to. Kansas City, and I understand Buffalo's. fantastic, and Josh is fantastic, but. Baltimore is the better roster 1 through. 53 than those two places. They got a. quarterback that's able to stand across. the field and be like, I can I can play. with you, too. And so, yeah, like he's. got to go win the Super Bowl. No one. really cares what Lamar does during the. regular season. I think we all love. watching it and it's all awesome and. whatnot, but if Lamar has another 4,000.

yards and 40 touchdown season, it's not. going to be like we're going to change. our perspective on him. No one's going. to. Lamar's got to go in the Super Bowl. Same could be said for Josh Allen. Um I. don't think Josh has the one through 53. roster that Lamar does, but Lamar's got. to win the Super Bowl. >> I respect that. And Connor tried to get. you to acknowledge it. Chuck Pagano also. senior assistant. Yeah. For that. defense. >> And the only reason why he's doing that. is because a he loves hard ball, loves.

that Ravens team, but he's trying to win. a Super Bowl. >> You know, Chuck is all his friends, all. his friends have Super Bowls. You know, he goes to an event, golf outing, everybody's introduced, >> okay? Super Bowl champion, Super Bowl. champion, Super Bowl champion. Ladies. and gentlemen, former head coach for the. Indianapolis Colts and defensive. coordinator for the Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns, Miami Universe, University of Miami, Chuck Pagano. Everybody loves him. >> That was Conor. >> Sorry. I mean, look, I'm assuming.

they're cheering loud for the Super Bowl. rings, but they're not cheering the same. for all Italian 2024 Chuck Pagato. >> I forgot he was the most Italian, too. You can add that into the entirety of it. all. Yes, I think um I think he strictly. looking for Super Bowl ring, but only. wanted to do it in a culture that he. loved, you know, and it's like Baltimore. is a great place for him to go to. And. he talks about Hamilton over there on. that side of the defense like he is one. of one. Lamar one of one. Derrick Henry. obviously I think he was ranked top 10.

on the players top 100 list and whatever. year this is for him. Running backs. aren't supposed to be this great this. long. Their offensive line is good. I. hope Baltimore does it just strictly. because that city is going to be. outrageous if they win. Think of butter. and think of Jimmy's Famous Seafood if. the Baltimore Ravens go on. I don't. know. I don't know if either of them. survive if the Baltimore Ravens win a. Super Bowl, but I'm pulling for them. Now, the Buffalo Bills have paid. everybody. >> So, you say like one through 53, it's. not good of a roster. It's like they've.

gone all in though. I mean, they've. they've literally paid everybody. So, there's a lot of pressure up there in. Buffalo, I think, as well. Not to. undercut your take, but I think that is. very very true. Now, let's go to a team. that is that has a lot of pressure on. and a guy that has a lot of pressure on. it, but doesn't get really talked about. cuz it's Los Angeles. >> Justin Herbert tonight obviously big. game. Same with Patrick Mahomes. Go. ahead, con man. >> Yeah, Dan, what do you think about. tonight's game? The game in Brazil last. year, we all remember the field was a. massive question mark and also wearing. green was a massive question mark and.

now the Chiefs and Chargers are down. there. uh gun to my head this morning. If you told me to name a Chargers. defensive lineman, I would have told you. shoot me because I didn't really know. who was on their defense. Not too sure. about it. Uh thinking about the Chiefs. here, just being a former New England. Patriots, you know, dynasty, watching. that my whole entire life. Feels like. every time Brady lost a Super Bowl, they. came back to next year and either went. to the AFC Championship or won the Super. Bowl. H how does the you know Chargers. hang around with the Chiefs tonight and.

going forward? Mai Beckton I believe is. now questionable with an illness for. tonight. That was an update this hour. Um how do you see tonight going and why. uh is it not Chiefs minus three because. it feels really obvious. >> Yeah, I think tonight's going to be a. great football game. You know the. Chargers played last year against the. Chiefs they lost I think 17-10 in 1917. So two tight games. Um, I think the. Chiefs win tonight. I do.

What? >> Yeah. Is that right? >> That's crazy. >> Amazing. >> Yeah, that's awesome. We think so, too. >> Good. I didn't want. >> Oh, you got to go back. You're in. wherever the hell you are. There's no. service all the way back to the. beginning. Yeah. Now you look like a. finger painting, but. >> we probably still hear you. >> You want me to go again or do do you. want just Dan to go again, Pat? >> Well, we're going to reconnect. >> Yeah, Dan's able to tell. >> Funny you say that. It's Dan. go o uh. whenever you talk about Danlovski, but. everything you pointed out there about.

that Chargers team, we are in that. building. I love their culture. >> Love it. >> I love their building. I love coach. Harbaugh. I love Justin Herbert. I love. Derwin James. >> You know, is Khalil still over there? He. is. Yeah. Talk about not knowing a. Dlineman. I guess he's outside. linebacker. I don't know. >> No, it was just kind of a joke. I was. just this morning I was really trying to. go through who's on that team. But with. Bosa, aside from Bosa and Mac, I I. wasn't sure. And then I remember Keenan. Allen is back too as well. >> But I mean, it's not as many It's not as.

many players that like you're like. thinking of notable names personally. It's almost. >> ask your question again from the top. From the. >> top. Dan, good to see you. Always a pleasure. Um that's not true, but whatever. Uh, so. Chargers Chiefs tonight in Brazil. Last. year, field sucked. This year, hopefully. not the deal. Remember I made the green. color joke about not wearing it down. there. Uh, what's the deal with the game. tonight? Do you see the Chiefs blowing. them out? >> Joey Bosa plays for the Bills. Um, I.

think it's a good football game tonight. I think the Chargers, if you go back to. last year, like lost 1917 to the Chiefs. in 1917. the concerns tonight with no back 40% of. the offensive line, you know, with. Slater being out. So, that that gives me. some some reservations. Um, there's a. really good defense for the Chargers. They keep the ball in front of them. That's kind of Jesse Mter who's their. defensive coordinator. That's that's. their MO. They're going to force Kansas. City to, you know, be patient, try to.

throw the ball. I So, I expect, you. know, the Chargers to play a good. physical style of football. Trey Harris, a name to keep pay attention to tonight. He's their I think second round wide. receiver out of Old Miss. Lad McClonkey. was the guy last year. They need someone. outside of Lad to really step forward. They go back and get Keenan Allen. How. much can he kind of make an impact as. that is he the number two for them? He's. the number three them three for them. So. I think Trey Harris and just can he. really become that second wide receiver.

for them? So they got to protect. No. doubt. I think Kansas City's a little. bit more intriguing to me because one, I. do believe the Chiefs offense needs to. change a little bit. I I think we've. heard all offseason and rightfully so, we want the deep ball back. We want the. deep ball back. There's two ways to do. the deep ball in football. One, I got a. person I can just line up there and. throw it to them deep. That's AJ Brown. The G the Chiefs do not have that. Or. two, you have to you have to be able to. run play action and stretch the defense. vertically. You got to have speed to do.

that. You got to have time to do that. They have the speed. Hollywood Browns, if you're worthy, Thornton, they do they. have the time? Does the new left side. matter? You know, with with Simmons and. Kingsley on that left, do they matter? Are are they a viable starting left side. offensive linewise? Cuz this Chargers. defense does have some impactful edge. rushers that are really good players. Okay. So, like that's the number one. thing. And do they call it? Um, I want. to see how different that offense is. Now, no. Rasheed Rice. Rasheed Rice your.

best receiver. Who steps into that role? Because all they did with Rasheed Rice. last year was get him running. Get him. running. Get him running. Who's that. guy? Is it gonna be Travis? Is it gonna. be Guju? So, I'm I'm a little bit more. intrigued to see what that Chief's. offense looks like coming off of that. obviously Super Bowl disaster. >> Do you think they Okay. Do you think the. Super Bowl disaster wakes them up. though? Chiefs have been very difficult. to bet with for a large part of a lot of.

regular season football games. You're. looking at a guy that has lost. maybe hundreds of thousands of dollars. betting on the Kansas City Chiefs during. the regular season over the last three. four years. >> Are you serious? >> I don't know. I just did I just did some. quick math in my head and I remember a. couple big days kind of disappearing. from my account and just thinking to. myself, the Chiefs are still the Chiefs, >> but I wish the Chiefs would be a little. bit more of the Chiefs. Okay, so that is. kind of my thing. The Chiefs always they.

feel like. >> kind man. >> I stopped gambling uh last year just. gave out picks uh but then I bet times. >> bet on the Chiefs a couple times and I. lost. It it's just I believe in great. Like I believe in greatness. I I have. always have since I'm a little boy. Getting a chance to meet Randy Moss on. Monday was so cool. Like in person. having a chance to chat with him cuz. that's like greatness. Like everything. I've heard about him, I loved that. Coach Prime, same thing. You're talking. about like I enjoy goats. What they did.

to get there, how much sacrifice, how. much commitment. Like you don't just. fall to the top of the mountain. And I. think a lot of people think that. whenever they get to the top, they're. getting a lot of attention and they. start hating them. I respect that. You. can hate whoever you want to hate and. people throw rocks at things that shine. Shout out to Travis Kelce's fiance for. that entire thing, but those two and. that entire crew have worked their asses. off to get to that point. So, I respect. the grind to become the great. And every. time I see them, I'm like, "Yeah, they're going to beat the [ __ ] out of. this team. Three and a half, no problem.

It's Kansas City Chiefs." And then every. regular season game, it feels like they. are just one point better than the other. team or just however we got to get a win. to steal this thing. Do you think that. Super Bowl wakes them up and maybe makes. them a more dominating type team? Or do. you think it's going to be the same [ __ ]. with this Kansas City Chiefs team as. somebody who might dabble in a little. bit of a the Chiefs is still the Chiefs. bet this evening on ESPN uh bet? >> Oh yeah, sure. And Mahomes's September. record bet that gets brought up every.

time this time of year comes around. He's like undefeated or he's lost one. game in September. >> It's expensive is what it is. So, what. I'm saying to you is, is a Super Bowl. loss going to be something that maybe. turns this team into a different. mentality whenever you're week in week. out is what I'm asking you. And I need. an actual answer. >> Yeah. >> I I do not believe so. I I don't think. you go to three, you know, having a a. mindset that might need a tweet. I I. think for me, Pat, it's more the the.

scheme and the people that that would. take them to a different level than they. were able to play offensively last year. Defensively, they were still a pretty. solid group group. So, it's like I don't. think that Super Bowl loss is going to. make, you know, Patrick hungrier or. Travis hungrier or, you know, you know, get some of the other I I think this is. a very hungry group. I still sit there. and I go, they got to they got to evolve. schematically. I firmly believe that. I. think that might be something coming off. of the Super Bowl loss, realizing, oh, we we we we could have just played drop.

back ball anymore and we couldn't. protect. So again, that's why I go to. like is the left side good enough and is. the scheme, you know, giving them the. opportunity to throw the ball downfield. I think this offense is going to look. very different in November than it does. this tonight in in September because of. Noi Rice. So um you know like I maybe. crystallize their thoughts, but I then. again Pat like the division's better, you know, like the division's better. The the Chargers are a better team right. now than they were last year. So it's. like.

>> I I I agree with you. I think this is a. great football team that has great. players and it's a great organization, but I don't think like last year's Super. Bowl loss changes the how they go about. their business. >> All right, quickly, last question. Let's. stay in the AFC West. Bo Nicks only. looks for his first read, then he. panics. That's what I'm hearing. That's. what I'm hearing. Did you hear that as. well from Jeffrey? >> I didn't. Who said this? Jeffrey Simmons of Tennessee Titans says. that, you know, when he watched Bo. Knicks, he gets to his first read, if. that's not open, and he scrambles and.

runs for his life. And then Shawn. Payeyton respond, I think he's just. worried about the game. You know, he. does the entire give and take. Bo Nicks, we're all expecting to be great, right? A lot of people think that the Denver. Broncos are going to be the team that. maybe goes on a run in this entire AFC. with how great their defense is. We only. have like a couple minutes, a minute or. two here. Bo Nicks about to have a huge. year too in your eyes. Yeah, I believe Bo Nicks takes a big. jump and kind of carries over what we. saw at the last half of last season. I. you guys hear me say this. There's three.

things I think all quarterbacks and. specifically young ones need to play at. a really high level. One, do you have. the scheme and the play caller to to to. really hurt defenses? Check. Two, do you. have the offensive line to give you the. time to do it? Check. And then three, do. you have the proper amount of weapons to. get the football to? And I'm not telling. everybody I think it yes. My answer is. but I'm not telling everybody like they. got Jamar Chase and Tiggins, but I like. Sutton. I think Franklin Franklin's. going to take a step forward. I'm a Mims. guy. I think the addition of Evan Ingram. gives them people to get the ball to in.

space like this. I think Bo Knicks is. going to have a really really good year. >> I think in your super duper prediction. special with Peter Shreger, who we love. by the way, um you said the Broncos went. in the division, I believe, right? Didn't you have them coming out of the. AFC West? >> Wow. >> Yeah, I do. No, I mean 10 and seven last. year with $89 million of dead cap space. That dead cap space is gone. I think. it's uh best lines of scrimmage. offensive and defensive line, reigning. defensive player of the year. It's a. it's a loaded roster. I I think they're. going to be a very very good football.

team. >> All right, we appreciate the hell out of. you, Oloski, joining us on your ventures. from New York through no service town to. Bristol. You're the man. Have a great. weekend. >> Later, bud. Later, guys. >> Happy season. Happy season, Daniel. Happy season. >> Hey, is that in order, Pat? Is that in. order? He said scheme and play caller. for quarterback. Scheme, play caller, offensive line, and then weapons on the. outside to throw to. Does that how does. he think it's that order? One, two, three as well. >> He might. >> for me. Offensive line's one, right? In.

my eyes. >> Yeah. Oh, yeah. If you don't have a good. O line, you can't really do anything. But I Yeah, the scheme and play caller. to me is gigantic. Like that's huge. >> I think having a little continuity at. that position is obviously good. I I. think we we put together a list the. other day off about how many like I. guess Blaine Gabbert was kind of the. godfather of this entire thing. He. played for eight different offenses in. seven years or seven different offenses. in eight years or something like that. I. I forget the number. I think it was. eight coordinators. Do you recall, boys?

>> Eight different coordinators in seven. years. And BA was like, "Shit, how's he. how do you how do you even. >> was like I like Bla. Blaine was very. talented. >> He was very good." But I mean, did he. even get a, you know, and then the auto. automatic counter cuz Caleb's on like a. third offense coordinator already, you. know, and then you think about Bryce. Young. And then you think about all. these younger guys, Trevor Lawrence. I. mean, there's a lot of turnover at that. offense coordinator position. And then I. would like to counter the argument is. like when Andrew Luck joined our team, we had the number one overall pick. because he stunk.

>> and he his ability just kind of. >> Yeah. you know, you put the team on his back. and we go to the playoffs that year. So, it's like, is it the quarterback and the. offense getting the offensive. coordinator fired or is the offense. coordinator ass? And they're kind of. ruining the development of everything. You know, I think those you can talk you. can chase your tail in that. conversation. And I think if you talk to. the coordinators, they would say. quarterback doesn't know the offense. I. think that's already happening out of. Chicago, right? We already heard that.

out of Chicago. And then you talk to the. players and they're like, "Well, how am. I supposed to learn four different. languages in three years? I don't know. how I'm supposed to play." So, it's uh. that's a crazy thing. But yes, I think. continuity is a big deal. I still. believe though the offensive line is the. only thing that like must have for. success. And I think that's going to be. very very prevalent this year in college. and in the NFL just like it was last. year. AJ. >> Yeah. With the offensive line situation, it's true. Like you're trying to. constantly cover up for having a poor. line if you don't have it. like, okay, hey, we would love to run this late.

developing route, these routes. downfield, but we have no chance. Even. if we try to max protect, we can't keep. our guy upright, we're going to get our. quarterback killed. Like, and then if. you can't run the ball, too, if you can. get no push up front, it would be a. helpless feeling, I think, to be an. offensive coordinator, especially in the. NFL, and realize that you don't have the. dudes up front. It really would. >> Yes. And as a quarterback, you start. looking at the rush, you keep your head. down. Remember Nick Bosa said about. Jaylen, he said, "We're able to get his. eyes down as soon as you get a little. pressure." Felt like Jaylen sat in there. last night. I I really. >> he was awesome. >> I enjoyed Jaylen and I enjoyed Dak. That.

was a great start to the NFL. We got a. huge weekend, a huge game tonight. Hour. two will be on the other side. We got. Nick Sabin and coach Patty Gasso. A lot. of national championships on the way. See you then. >> It's impossible to be at the top at both. of those essentially like it's. >> another farting Dan Orloski situation. just took place. >> What do you mean? It's unbelievable. >> Your butt is talking. Okay, >> I did not fart.

>> This is two times now, Dan. This is the. Orski thing. >> You guys being serious right now or you. messing with me? >> Listen to this clip. This is you just. moments ago. >> It's impossible to be at the top at both. of those essentially like it's. >> I mean, you guys definitely. freaking idiot. Swear D. We swear.

that we swear. We swear. >> No way. >> No one did that. >> What did you eat? >> I haven't even ate. >> If I were you right now, I'd go grab. some food. >> My wife texted me. She said, "Oh my. gosh, McAfee show. I'm dead." I go, "Babe, I promise you on everything I did. not fart." Who runs your Twitter. account? >> Hey B, >> I do. >> What's this all about? I would like to. know in that situation where your. butthole started talking, what did I do?

>> I can't even be serious with you, man. >> What are you chucking a glass of milk? Eat some fruit over there. Get you some. coffee. Get that butthole a little bit. more active. >> I haven't ate. I'm eating yogurt. I have. a thousand text messages right now of. people going, "Oh my gosh." I'm like, I. just wanted to have like a quiet. Tuesday. >> I don't even know why we're going to. have another hour. Maybe run that clip. >> Just Yeah. >> On loop. We have the video. Seams. Let's let you. judge here. >> It's impossible to be at the top at both. of those essentially like it's.

>> I need to hear the content. I want to. give. >> Shut up. >> What an AJ vote. >> It's a fart all day long. Kirk, you know. that. >> Has anybody voted no? >> Dan, >> I'll be the captain of team no today. >> We need you to do a tiebreaking vote. Is. that okay? >> Sounds good to me. >> It's impossible to be at the top at both. of those essentially like it's. >> there's no doubt. I mean, I like how he. just kept on going right there. >> When he was talking, he didn't even. break stride as that thing came out. He. went and got the buggy, went to the. store, grabbed some dude wipes to wipe.

those ass cheeks, just like I assume you. do as welcome. >> You have to go dry, wet, dry. Toilet. paper, wipe, toilet paper. If not, you're really risking the rest of the. day having the swamp ass. You know, Dan. Orloski, man, he got to accept that, man. He got to wear that with a pride. One thing that really bothers me when. people do not take credit for it. You. know, if somebody says, "Oh, that was. you that farted." I get upset when it. wasn't me. I'm like, "No, when am I ever. not claimed it when it was mine?" You. should claim it. >> What about all those airports people are.

traveling today? Look up at ESPN. Dan. Roloski farts. What's wrong with this. guy? >> The closed captioning person, whoever it. is, they got it. I believe it said. audible, muffled, muffled, and it said. Dan farts. >> The following program is a collection of. students talking about happenings in the. sports world. It is meant to be comedic, informative. The opinions expressed on. this show do not necessarily reflect the. beliefs of their peers, their boss, or. ESPN. There may be some cuss words. because that's how humans in the real.

world talk. If you are a young, please. seek permission before watching any. further. >> Hey, let's go. >> This show stinks. And the fact that you. listen, we are very, very thankful. >> McAfee on the line with a gorgeous. assist. >> The alltime leading tackler for the. Green Bay Packers. You. >> stop. Damn it. >> Your friend, tell a friend something. nice could change their life.

[Applause]. [Music]. >> Welcome back. Hour two Pat McAfee Show. I'm AJ Hawk sitting in Pat here at his. desk in Indianapolis. He's in Norman, Oklahoma for a big match up tomorrow. >> Football. >> Nailed it, Pat. Nailed it. What's it. like? How was the break? What's What's. going on there? I know we have Coach. Sabin come on here hopefully 10, 15. minutes. What's uh the vibe like over. there? >> Coach Sabin has arrived and I'll tell. you what, his aura greatness certainly. is felt upon arrival here in the.

stadium. Obviously getting miked up. We'll talk to him in a few moments. I. ran to the bathroom, got a chance to. experience the world here. I, you know, I like the pizzazz that Coach Sabin's. coming with this. Bang. I mean, that was. right back. What do you think this is? Yeah. And uh I I genuinely appreciate. that. Listening to him chitchat in the. production meeting and obviously the. passion he has for the sport is great. He's an entertaining West Virginia dude, though. I I I mean, Coach Sabin is an. entertaining man who's forgot more about. football than all of us have ever. learned. And uh it's an honor to work.

with him. But I like that he just. immediately hit me with that thing back. I like that. I like that that's where. we're at week one. And uh I appreciate I. mean those are some big pointers. I. mean, those things are gigantic. >> Yeah. Shout out to Rule. Shout out to M. Rule. Ruleman. Ruleman. >> Yeah. >> Matt. >> Good. >> Great. Rule. Rule. >> Mr. Rule. >> Ruleman. Call him Rule though, you know. Rule is what I say. Uh, he's stage. manager for College Game Day. Monday.

Night Football. I don't know if he's. ever home. The guy's always on the road. seemingly on stages for ESPN. He had. that last year. One of the weeks he had. like a huge one and he like showed it to. me and I was like, "Yes, that is. definitely what we're looking for." And. I think you guys remember I pulled that. thing out and I looked like the biggest. [ __ ] of all. >> Yeah, it was awesome. >> Then it was awesome. It was everything. everything I had dreamed of. Everything. I dreamed of whenever it came to that. and then it seemed like all the pointers. started getting longer and longer for. everybody as season went on. And the. first week we all got to sevenfooters, I.

think. And uh I'll tell you what, at. some point all those things are going to. be pointing at the screen and that's. going to be legendary television. That's. what people come to watch. And uh yeah, it's cool, man. I just went to the. bathroom. You get a chance to see, you. know, some of the people that work in. here. Their excitement for the weekend. It's like college ball takes over, you. know, everybody's brain. There's there's. kids waiting outside of game day right. now. >> 10:30 a.m. >> dude. >> 10:30 a.m. I think the kid's name was uh. Josh, maybe. I forget what it was. Sitting outside. He's gonna try to do.

the kick. You got to be one of the first. 300 people in obviously to get one of. the tickets, raffle tickets, and then. randomly selected. But yeah, there's. people already sitting out there out. here. It's like you forget how much. these people love football. >> You know, Oklahoma hasn't really been in. the national conversation in a huge way. in in some time. I would say Venable. obviously brought in here as a big deal. Yeah. Baker Jaylen, too. I guess Jaylen. did a little. >> Yeah, Jaylen did some cooking when he. was here. I thought about him as I was. walking in the stadium. I'm like, "Oh, Jaylen called this place home for a. while when Lincoln R." Like, I just.

think that this place loves ball and. this John Matar guy, I think, has got a. lot of people excited. You know, Venibal's defense is obviously going to. confuse people. Like, Bryce Underwood. coming in here as a freshman, 18-year-old, there's probably going to. be a lot of [ __ ] Venos is ready for, but. on the other side, Matier, he's taking. on Wink up there in Michigan. This kid's. a player. This kid's a real player. And, uh, I'm excited for tomorrow. I think. everybody here is as well. And. >> I'm lucky to be here. We got a huge NFL. game tonight too leading into this. weekend of greatness and then.

>> Saturday night huge game. Sunday night. huge game. Monday night huge game. It's. like god damn it's a great time to be. alive. Um the toxic table at Boston. Connor at Tai Schmidt Con man you came. in yesterday saying Cowboys plus 8 and a. half easiest bet of the season. Literally soon as I saw you in the. morning you were so jacked up about ball. playing yesterday and your bet that you. were talking to random people on the. street. You you're rolling down window. with purple sunglasses, that big ass. hair in Indiana about 7:30, 8 a.m. in.

the morning in the middle of traffic. saying, "Hey, have a good day." You. know, >> thank you for your service. >> Nobody was sending anything back to you. Then you get in the Thunderdome, you're. like, "I need somebody, you know, I need. somebody." And you came in and you're. like, "Eight and a half Cowboys. This is. easy." And you were met with a lot of. resistance, myself included, cuz. immediately it's like you think of all. the negative about the Cowboys. all the. negative how Jerry even openly admitted. it's not about winning all the time it's. about you know being a part of it mix it.

up he even says that so you you're it's. so negative about the Cowboys and then. by the end of the show I was fully in. like yeah this is Connor was spot on. since the morning as you're watching. that game you feel great about your feel. that you had going into the season and. what do you think about the two teams. from last night. >> yeah as we're watching the game it is. one of those things like man I just. really hope we kind of can bottle this. and continue this on for the rest of the. season, which I completely plan to do, but it it just felt like too much. It. feels like going in to every year, the.

last thing that we, you know, have as. far as taste in our mouth is, you know, that Super Bowl team and how great they. are. And that's what it was with the. Eagles. And as great as they are, eight. and a half points is just always too. much in an NFL game. In these early. weeks, especially college football week. one, you know, the public went 0 of. five. Now NFL, it's kind of carried. over. Republic is 0 and one. Uh both. teams though, like we've kind of said, you feel good about the Cowboys. Feel. good about the Eagles. If you're a fan. of either of these teams, Cowboys feel.

like a really tight team. You know, they're fighting for each other. That. rivalry is very alive. If you're an. Eagles and Cowboys fan, you're happy. that your teams hate each other. I know. when you're watching those scrums, those. scruffles, whatever. If you're a fan of. football, you love it. But if you're a. fan of these teams, >> Yeah. wasn't this good to see. >> That's probably like nostalgia. like, hey, this is this is a rivalry thing. These teams hate each other. Hopefully, >> no jersey swaps. I there wasn't going to. be any, you know, Booker. >> This is real here. I enjoy this.

>> You love that about football. That got. me all jacked up immediately. Uh. spitting on the Dak, I mean, most people. love that, but in a game, not really the. situation for it. Uh but no, again, Eagles and Cowboys, man, I feel like it. was a great start to prime time. football. I think it's going to continue. tonight and I'm just jacked up that we. get to talk about football instead of. some of the uh instead of some of the. bull we've had to deal with since the. Super Bowl. >> All right, AJ. Uh AJ, just hanging out.

>> Oh yeah, I'm just hanging out. My bad. right here. I don't know if coach Sabin. was ready or not, but Tone, didn't you. have something for the betters on either. not last night, but maybe this weekend. the Oklahoma game? Oklahoma versus. Michigan. >> Yeah, like Pat talked about the the the. spread is five and a half. So, but if. you want to look at it's a low total for. the game. I think it's like 44. And I. think a lot of it has to do with what. Pat was talking about with Venibals. going up against a freshman quarterback. and then Wink going against up against. Matier who there's questions about the. Oklahoma offense. So I I think that low. total 44 I think it is is is you know.

indication of what potentially could be. a hard-fought close game in Norman. Oklahoma age. >> Nice. Okay, you have a you got a little. special guest I think who is all miked. up now, right? >> AJ, you're doing a great job out there. point guarding this entire thing. Ladies. and gentlemen, Amanda does not need to. be introduced, but we certainly will. The greatest college football coach of. all time, Coach Nick Sav. Thank you. >> You hear the claps? >> Hear the claps in Indie. >> I heard him. >> Hell yeah, coach. >> Looking good, coach.

>> I love these guys. You should have. brought them with you. >> Yeah, I think we next week potentially. as long as uh Yeah. Yeah. As long as the. big weekend only three and a half point. spread. I don't love that in Athens, Ohio. Rich Rod's about to run him off. the field. I think you'll see all the. boys next week hopefully if everything. handles that. Let's talk about you and. your name. Okay. And we talked a little. bit about it on Monday whenever we did. the kickoff show. I thought that was fun. by the way. >> Yeah, it was. I enjoyed that. >> Saw Randy Teddy. It was great to work. with Matt Barry. That's my first time. ever doing that. That was uh that was a.

lot of fun. And you talked a little bit. about Alabama at that point because. you're kind of forced to. Your name is. being mentioned a lot. You are the. standard for all the Alabama fans. They're comparing everything that. happens with the players, with the. treatments, with the product on the. field, with everything to you and how. you ran that place for so long. That is. a massive compliment. Tough for Kaylin. Debor to come in there and put in his. own culture, but everybody knew. following you that was going to be the. case. Now that we're five days removed. on Monday, your message was like, "Hey, you can lay an egg." Uh, but weeks one. to week two is where you get your your.

biggest progress in your team. And maybe. they got smacked in the mouth and maybe. they're better. you were trying to spin. it into a positive way, I think, cuz a. lot of Alabama fans are going to listen. to everything you're saying. As we sit. here on Friday, what are your thoughts. and what do you think Kalin has been. telling his team and how do you think. the roll tide world is really feeling. about it all at this point? >> Yeah. Well, you know, my message was, you know, basically when you have a. negative consequence and you don't teach. and do a good job of identifying what do. we need to fix so the players have. something that they can relate to. If.

you don't teach, it really creates uh. affects morale in a negative way. So, I. think you got to be positive and show. the players when they did it right. Here's the success we had, when we. didn't do it right, whether it was even. one player didn't do it right. May maybe. that's why they had success. But I do. think that there was something in that. game that is tough to understand in my. opinion in that Alabama looked great. going down the field on the first drive. Florida State gets the ball and goes.

right down the field and scores. And. then the whole sort of psychological. disposition of Alabama's team changed. For what reason? I don't know. Was it. anxiety? Was it expectation? Um, but one. thing about coaching at Alabama, they. expect you to win every game and there. is a high expectation and the standard. is really, really high for what you're. supposed to accomplish and what you're. supposed to do. You need to protect your. players from that and give them a. different way to compete in the game. So. they're not looking at the scoreboard. They're not worrying about the outcome.

They can stay focused on the things that. they need to do to compete in the game. for 60 minutes and play one play at a. time. So they're not worried about that. because that's all they hear everywhere. they go on social media. Everywhere they. go, they're expected to win. So you. can't let that creep in and that anxiety. about being outcome oriented affect. their performance. >> What do you think? And I I know you know. him and you are in the building and you. obviously care deeply about the Alabama. football program. We actually call this. show a program because of how you.

describe your program whenever you're at. Alabama in its entirety. >> Kaylin Debor sits down after that game, looks in a mirror and has a massive. moment with himself. You think is that. one of those types of games where it. gets loud enough that you think he is. really I don't want to say in a. whirlwind, but the reality of what he is. signed up to do kind of hits him. Do you. think that happened after week one? I I. don't think there's any question about. it. You know, Kaylin is a really good. guy. He's a good coach. He's always had. success everywhere he's been. Maybe he. hadn't had to deal with this kind of.

scrutiny in the past, but if you're. going to be successful, you got to be. able to self assess and figure out, hey, what can I do better? And I know that. he's reaching out to a lot of people. trying to do that. And um hopefully they. get it turned around this week and. develop some confidence on this team so. they can move forward in a positive way. How many national championships did you. win? >> Seven. >> How many did you lose? >> Three. >> Okay. So, Kaylin Dbor, when you talk. about big shoes to fill, I don't know.

how long all your national championships. are, the trophies when you stack them. up, but boy, feels like those shoes were. going to be tough to fit. And uh Kaylin. Dbor we thought was going to be the. right guy to handle it. Still has a. chance, right? We shouldn't just give up. completely on this entire situation, which I think a lot of people are. I. think a lot of people have given up. There's a lot a season left, right? We. can still think that way. >> Yeah. And I think that's the way the. players should think. That's the way the. coaches should think. And uh I say they. got to stay focused on what they need to. do to teach and get better, create roles.

for the players on their team and how. they can support the team. You know, there's one thing about this that you. and I when we played, you know, we. wanted to do well. We wanted to be good. Uh but we also had a responsibility to. those guys over there standing on the. sidelines that was on our team. And. that's a responsibility that everybody's. got to figure out in this day and age of. football when there's so much individual. name, image, and likeness transfer. And. once you decide and make a commitment to. a team, you got to do a good job for. yourself, but you also owe it to the.

guys standing on the sidelines or in the. huddle with you. And I think that's an. important thing for all these guys to. understand. >> I mean, obviously the loafs are just so. abnormal for any Alabama team that we've. seen throughout my lifetime because. you've been the coach basically there. throughout the most all of my adulthood. Um, I think the reason why it never. happened is because you had like four or. five stars at every position. So, they. were scared to death the loaf because. the guy behind him might wallally pip. the [ __ ] out of him. I mean, there's a. chance that that's going to happen. Just. didn't feel that way first week. But Dan.

Olowski counted 21 loafs. Hey, that's. Dan. He watched every player, every. play. >> Well, well, yeah. Well, I think all. coaches want that. But you know the one. thing I always nobody wants to be. insignificant and you always have the. bench and if a guy didn't do what he was. supposed to do he knew that he would you. know and it didn't matter who it was you. know I mean you got the. >> national championship you did it and uh. let's talk about that national. championship you making that move Jaylen. Herz last night I don't know how much of. a game you got to see playing phenomenal.

>> yeah he played great I watched the first. half and. >> he's only going to get better though. right with his characteristics and his. traits it feels like he literally a. worker. committed to the game, addicted to the. game, great teammate. He's only going to. get better and better. If we were to. give a what is that, a personality. profile on Jayen Herz, that would be the. read on him. No question. I mean, if you. just look at what Jaylen Herz has done. from when he got taken out of the. national championship game and Tua got. put in to the improvements that he's. made as a passer, as a quarterback, as a. leader. I mean, this guy is driven to be.

the best that he can be and he works at. it every day and nothing affects him. And I I just love the guy and I love. that he's having such great success now. with the Eagles, not only at his. position, but helping his team be. successful. >> He's awesome to watch. >> Awesome. >> He's a lot of fun to watch him and. Sirriani and Philadelphia feel like the. perfect feel like the perfect marriage. Go ahead, AJ. >> Yeah, coach. Uh, pivot back to the. college game. Obviously, your your good. friend Bill Bichc had a tough one on. Monday night against TCU. I guess can.

you explain how tough it is to win in. college football? Especially when you. first show up and you get to a program, everyone just assumes, "Hey, here we go. We're going undefeated. We're making a. run at the college football playoffs.". Like, how tough is it to win? Especially. when you've been there what, 6 months, four months, I don't know. >> Yeah. Well, I I I think the most. important thing is is you win with. people and you got to have a good roster. and you got to have an opportunity to. develop that roster. And I think they. got in there kind of late in January, probably being new, got behind the. eightball a little bit, didn't do as.

well in the portal was that I'd like to. maybe in January. Uh so they've got work. to do in terms of the players that they. have. I mean, the tackling on defense. wasn't very good. Obviously, the. turnovers for two scorers wasn't very. good. There's a lot of things they can. work on. There's a lot of things that. they can improve, and I'm sure Bill will. go to work on that. But I do think that. there's also people need to have. patience in the fact that you got to. have a chance to get good players and. have a chance to develop those players. together as a group.

>> I um. that TCU team really good. We didn't say. a single thing about them the whole. time. >> I mean that pissed them off. >> Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. They definitely. knew that. Yeah. Yeah, they they they. were very aware of the Bill Bichc Bowl. that was happening and they were. thinking to themselves second half of. the season last year, we're one of the. hottest teams in America. Uh we returned. a lot of starters. Our quarterback can. spin it and they had a lot of size. They. got off the bus and I think Bill Bich. even with his thought off sweatshirt.

We're in some [ __ ] today. I think that. team bigger, stronger, faster than us. And when you talk about having the guys. that first drive, I thought to myself, of course, Bill Bich's going to be able. to outf fundamentals these people. He's. going to be a smarter coach. He's going. to be able to draw up plays. He's going. to be able to out technique the other. team. They're going to go on a run. I. thought they were going to host a. college football playoff game. And in. the middle of that first drive, I'm. jacked up. I'm like, here he is. He's. doing this is exactly what we came for. This is why we're here. And then all of. a sudden, Sunny Dykes had some. adjustments to make, too, it sounded.

like. and uh nobody even thought about. Sunny having a brain and uh he he he's. been coaching a long time. They beat the. [ __ ] out of that North Carolina Tar. Hills team. What is it now for Bill? Trying to keep everybody optimistic. about the plans that he potentially has. What are your thoughts on that? They got. Charlotte on Saturday. That's a mustwin. >> Yeah, must win. No doubt. But um look, I. think TCU does have a very good team. You know, this Josh Hoover guy is the. real deal at quarterback. They were so. much more physical in the way they.

looked on the field than North Carolina. >> So, um, yeah, I I think but and I also. think they were fired up in this game. >> You know, when you feel like you're. disrespected, you know, you you you can. say all you want about motivation, but. when people disrespect somebody, I. always thought that that was a great. motivator. Uh, you know, we played. Vanderbilt a couple years ago and I'm. sitting there and I cannot sleep all. night because I'm saying, "What am I. going to say to the team to get the team. fired up to play Vanderbilt?" Oh, no.

>> Like, we're undefeated, Dave. So, they. beat Kansas State the week before we. played them. And one of their players. get on TV and says, "Bama's next.". >> Yes. >> I would have paid that guy $100,000. And we we were ahead like 49 nothing at. halftime, but our team was pissed. TCU. was pissed in this game because they. didn't get any attention. They felt. irrelevant and um they got a good team. They really do. But I do think that it's.

going to be a real test for Bill to get. the players to stay committed to what. he's trying to do and that they make the. improvements that they need to make so. they can have a success this week. against Charlotte. >> I love to hear that. And that kid from. Vandy, just know Coach Sabin did here. and you were the reason. So, a lot of. times you wonder, like I do wonder if. I'm bulletin board material. You and. Vandy have a great relationship. Great. Especially on this particular show. It. might have been in this. >> It was. >> Was it in this stadium? >> Yep. Pretty sure. I'm pretty sure. >> When you said everywhere in the SEC is.

tough to play. >> except for Vanderbilt. And then. obviously Diego Pavia and the boys beat. Alabama. They dragged the uprights. through Broadway. It was like uh. obviously a huge moment. But I think. what you were saying is pre Diego Pavia. Uh Pavia. Pavia. >> Pavia. >> I'm not sure cuz PCO PC I'm so sorry. >> Pavilla. >> Well, Pacheco is actually Puerto Rican. I do believe he was down there at the. Babani concert exchanging uh jerseys. So.

you say it's Pavilla. >> Gumpy said. >> whatever it is. >> Gumpy China. >> Diego. Diego changed all of Vanderbilt. and the NIO was obviously great for. them. But I appreciate the fact that. you're I'm trying to tell a boy. I mean, we're playing Vandy. Jesus. I don't even. know. And then all of a sudden the kid. says that like you just like hitting the. lottery basically at that moment is a. beautiful thing to think about. Hopefully Kayn Dbor's listening cuz. Alabama fans are listening to what he's. saying. Now let's talk about this game. that's happening here. Defense is going. to be a big conversation especially with.

the names involved. Tone has a question. for you. >> Yeah, coach. Uh Pat and I were talking. about it earlier this week how you know. Venibals and Wink Martindale probably. two of the best defensive coordinators. in the country going up you know um Wink. has got an 18-year-old and Bryce or. sorry Venibals as an 18-year-old and. Bryce Underwood that he's going up. against and Wink has got you know Matier. and an offensive line that might have. some question marks. I know you've gone. up against Venables um probably Wink too. in the past. How how hard is it going to. be for those young quarterbacks to go up. against those guys because we just. watched Arch do it last week against.

Matt Patricia. >> Yeah. Well, I I think it's going to be a. challenge for both and it'll be. interesting to see how they respond. You. know, Bryce Underwood is a very talented. guy. This will be his first game on the. road in a tough environment against a. defensive coordinator that's going to. get him a lot of looks, a lot of. disguises, change the picture after the. snap and how he reacts to that is going. to be really, really important. But I. will say this, Michigan was a totally. different team offensively last week. because of Bryce Underwood. There's no. doubt about that. And this material guy.

that Oklahoma has, he's a talented guy. They couldn't run the ball. And I'm. going to tell you, Wink is going to. create pressure every opportunity he. gets to create negative plays. And how. Oklahoma handles that is going to be. really, really important in this game. Cuz if he can create positive down. distance and put his third down package. in there and do all this crazy stuff he. does, they're going to have a hard time. with it because of the offensive line, not necessarily because of the. quarterback. Coach Sabin, do you feel. like maybe Oklahoma has to represent for.

the SEC here? You know, Big 10 team. coming to town. Oh, yeah. You know. what's been happening? You know what's. been happening. >> We always talk about that. Um, I never. think about it. I just kind of look at. the teams, but there is a rivalry there. between the Big 10 and the SEC that. can't be denied. >> Well, that's because, you know, at the. end when the College Football Playoffs. being talked about, there's a lot of. Greg Seni coming on going, if you can survive the South, go ahead. and do it. >> Good luck. you know, there's a lot of. that and I respect the culture of SEC. football and playing an away game in the.

SEC is insane everywhere except for uh. but it is like a real thing. Like that. is a huge part of college ball is the. tradition and the environment and how. hard it is to play at places and it can. turn somebody from being a great player. into an average player. I agree with. that. But the North The North is talking. a lot of [ __ ] right now. Don't Ain't. that rightfully so. The North is talking. a lot of [ __ ] right now. >> Can I have a perspective on this? >> You can. Yes, sir. And you got an ISO.

camera. Watch this. Watch this. >> I I think that the SEC was the SEC. because of the culture in the South. There wasn't professional football in. the South for a long time. And everybody. related to the the colleges. Okay, we. talked about that before. >> Well, now that doesn't matter. I mean, kids grew up wanting to go to LSU. Kids. grew up wanting to go to Alabama. Kids. grew up wanting to go to Georgia. got the money now. They don't mind going. to Ohio State. They don't mind going. other places. So that geographic.

advantage that the Southeast Conference. had may be. >> changing. >> changing a little bit now with the. different culture with name, image, and. likeness and and money involved in. decision-m and I think uh that's created. a little bit of an edge for the for the. Big 10. I will say this, the Big 10 has. a lot of money, you know, like. everybody's going to say what they say. about that whole thing, but like I don't. think the I don't think we all. understood how much money all the North. has. Big 10, like did we understand that. Penn State had all the money? I I don't.

think I knew that even as somebody that. grew up in Pittsburgh, had a lot of. friends that were Penn Stator and. obviously a member of that cult. It's. like I didn't know they had so much. money. >> We just knew they were insufferable. >> Yeah. And just assumed the South had. money, too. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. We assumed. Yeah. Exactly. But. then you think of Penn State and it's. like they needed 700 million cash to up. upgrade a stadium. That was like four. calls for the athletic director and. they're like, "Wait, >> are we going to win in all the sports?". Yeah. Okay. We would like to do that. We. are sick of talking to the Ohio State. people. We're sick of talking to the.

Michigan people. By the way, both of. them fully committed, let alone Oregon. getting into the game the way that. they've gotten into the game. We assume. that a lot of these Big 10 schools will. have the capabilities to go. We did. assume though that the South was going. to be able to keep up. I think naturally. I I always thought that there would be a. lot of money from a lot of these schools. in the south. It just feels like the Big. 10 has more alumni, I guess, with more. money and that's a big part of the game. right now. >> I think Texas and Texas A&M, you know, probably have that kind of. >> keep up. >> oldfashioned money.

>> Yeah, >> a lot of the schools in the Southeastern. Conference don't have that oldtime. generational wealth. But I just wanted. to ask AJ about the money they have at. Ohio State. I'm sure he. Hey, they're working every day to keep. bringing in more coach. You know that. that's the tough thing. If you bring it. in, you got we got to reload next year. and bring in double. >> AJ actually hosts events at his house to. raise money for these guys. The reason. why Julian Sain is now the quarterback. at Ohio State is because AJ did a full. song and dance in his sideyard dressed.

up like who was it? Who who'd you dress. up at that one event? >> Uh no, I'm I'm not I'm not going to bite. on this one. He left because coach Sabin. retired. That's why Julian Sain is the. quarterback in Ohio State. >> No. No. cuz you go out to that cruise. Used to raise money for hospitals. Now. we're kind of splitting. >> They're still hospitals. They're still. hospitals. We. >> got a little We got We got a side house. party. They used to go to hospitals. Okay. Half the money go to hospital. Let's make sure we. >> are NIL events popping up all over. though. It is It is weird to see like.

things that are strictly for NIL money. like that. That happened. >> Was that the dinner? Was that the dinner. you were at? Remember seeing him at. dinner the other day? He didn't talk to. us at all. >> They ignored us. He did ignore us the. whole damn time. It was unbelievable. It. was unbelievable. >> Man, you talk about getting big time. >> Yes. >> Oh boy. >> I was talking to Kirk's boys. I was. talking to Kirk's boys over at the kid. table. We had to sit over. >> Yeah. Yeah. Right. Yeah, right. You were. four feet behind maybe two feet behind. you. >> Oh, yeah. >> Didn't say a word. >> I kept peeking over trying to talk to. you guys and you act like you didn't. know me.

>> Yeah, right. Yeah, right. We were. looking for conversation. I mean, you. know, we're exploring the space in. there. All right, let's keep it moving. Con man has a question for you, Coach. David. >> Yeah, coach, not the only big game in. the SEC is Michigan, Oklahoma. Texas is. taking on San Jose State. Uh Georgia is. taking on Austin P. And I believe. Alabama has Louisiana Monroe. Uh what. the hell are we doing? All these games. suck. It is Titans versus high school. teams essentially. Um and we're going to.

act like these games really matter. Uh. why are these games on a schedule? I'm. sure there's a legitimate reason that I. really don't know and I'm sure you. actually do know. And how much longer. are we going to do this song and dance. uh before, you know, there's basically. games that mean something every week? Because this is kind of the argument. everyone has when, you know, these major. Big 10 teams play teams of this nature. and then these major SEC teams play. these teams cuz it's basically just like. a well, I'm not going to watch that. because Texas should win by 50.

>> Whoa. >> Yeah. Well, you know, first of all, there's two things. Uh, first of all, the way the playoff is set up, you get. penalized a lot more for losing than you. do a big win. All right? So, that. shouldn't be that way. All right? We. should have a culture where you enhance. people to play a better schedule. And by. playing better schedule and beating more. good teams, you have a better chance to. get in the playoffs, even if you lose a. couple along the way. So, that's number. one. So, there's no incentive for a. college team to play a tough schedule.

because you're going to get penalized. for a bad loss. All right. I I don't. like that. I hope we change it. Uh I've. submitted things to try to change it. >> Saving metrics. Hold on. I I I got to. say this real quick because this hasn't. really been talked about. I mentioned it. on college game day. He actually has a. scoring system that they could use, a. point system throughout the season that. he has crafted. Sounds like it's. actually a winner, too. the amount of. points you get for who you beat, where. they're ranked at the time, yada yada. yada, who you play against, losses to. people who are ranked, not ranked. It's.

like you really spent a lot of time on. this trying to figure it out, I believe. And uh I think the saving metrics would. be a good thing from hearing it behind. the scenes. >> Yeah. And and it's very similar to the. way they do basketball for tier one. wins, tier 2 wins, and all that kind of. stuff. But I think the second thing is. is, you know, we need to change the. metrics of like every uh conference does. their own TV. You know, we need to have. more of an NFL model, all right? Where. we have all the major conferences, do a. TV deal, and just like the NFL, make.

sure there's a good game on last night, there's a good game on every Sunday that. people are going to be interested in. watching. And then we would have more. good games because only the top 70 teams. would play each other, and you have to. play those teams. All right? So you you. you got better games to watch, better. for the fans, create more revenue for. the schools, and it would just be better. for everybody. So those two things to me. are two things that we need to progress. on in college athletics. >> Top 60 big power four league. They're.

running off the sabin metrics. Then you. have to give the um smaller conferences, couple playin spots, you know, just like. >> Mark, we give them some of the money, too. >> Yeah. >> I mean, >> would it be nice? >> Be nice for everybody. Good for us. >> Get it done, coach. >> Build it. >> Why don't you go talk to somebody, coach? Yeah. Why don't you go talk to. somebody? Who you going to talk to? You. got to talk to all the ads, all the. presidents, all the conferences, and all. the networks. >> Have fun. >> Light work. >> I saw I saw a certain president let. coach go in front of him the other day. because he won so many games. That was.

good to see. >> Who was that? I didn't see that. What. was the clip? >> That was our It was our our sitting. active president of the United States of. America. Let uh Coach Sabin go in front. of him because he won so many games. Oh, President Trump said, "Yeah, by all. means, Sir Nikki Sabin, please go this. way." That happened. Was that what. you're trying to do? You're trying to. get this whole thing passed? >> You You guys are Well, I mean, >> what are we What do we I would like to. know where. it has to happen in Washington some kind. of way through Congress. >> to probably get some kind of antirust to.

get some of these things implemented. >> You guys are spe awesome. Yeah. I don't. know if that's where that was headed. Ty. Ty has a question for you, coach. >> Yeah, coach. Uh when you look at a. couple of the games this weekend, we. have some transfer quarterbacks, you. know, for a lack of a better term, not. not just beating the [ __ ] out of some. cupcake like they did week one. You got. John Matir obviously with the game you. guys are at in Oklahoma. And then Mark. Growki uh for the Iowa Hawkeyes is going. two as to play Iowa State. And I guess. it just doesn't apply to those guys.

This could be, you know, first time. starters, too. Is there uh is there any. preparation or messaging change the week. of a massive game like this after you. come off week one and you play a team. where you just beat the [ __ ] out of and. you knew you were going to and you're. going into a week two game where it's. like, okay, hey, lights are bright now. We have a very good opponent. Like, does. that change anything when you're talking. to a guy stepping into a new position. like that? >> Oh, I don't think there's any question. about it. I mean, I always wanted to. play, and it's one of the reasons we. played all these neutral sight games in.

all my years at Alabama. I wanted to. play somebody good the first game. because I wanted to see where our team. was. But it also impacted the off. season. You know, the players are fired. up to play that first game when you're. playing Clemson or Virginia Tech or. somebody that's pretty good. So, you. have a better off season, you have a. better spring, you have a better summer. So, I'd rather start out that way to see. where we are rather than. play an easy team. the and the players. be maybe a little more complacent that. they had success but weren't challenged.

so that they understand the challenge of. the next game when they will be. challenged by a much better team. >> Have you seen Granowski? >> I didn't see him a lot but I I know they. didn't have a lot of success throwing. the ball. They didn't really need to. >> Thank you. >> But um. >> Ty, we'll see. >> Tyy's an Iowa fan. Ty's an Iowa fan. It. was tough first drive for even for you. though, Ty. Watching that. It was, but. like coach said, you know, when you rush. for 310 yards, it'd be malpractice to. have your quarterback drop back 30 times. and try to throw for 350. You know, they.

didn't they they knew Albany couldn't. stop the run. Let's just get in, get. out. You know, Kurt's uh if he wins this. weekend, he'll be the uh all-time. winningest coach in Big 10 history. So, you know, lot lot at stake this weekend. >> He Kurt's done a fantastic job there. You know, we coached together the. Cleveland Browns with Bill Buttle and I. think he's done a fabulous job there. But, you know, my approach was always. different when we played in games like. this. I was trying to make our team. better. So, if we needed to improve in. the passing game, we're going to pass. the ball whether we could run it or not.

And uh because I was always focused on. what do we have to do not just to win. the game, but what do we have to do to. improve our team? So, when we do have to. throw it, we're going to be more ready. to do it. >> I think at some point you got to be able. to make a third dime and have to throw. it, you know, and that's where Jayen and. Yes, I remember. And he threw a. touchdown there. threw a touchdown. there. That was really nice ball. I. mean, he took that thing. >> I mean, he threw a full I mean, that was. >> like T-ball shot put. >> He did. It looked amazing. And I I'm not.

going to kid Heisman already. Uh D2 the. whatever they call it now. >> One doubleA. Yep. >> National champion. One Heisman guy. He's. been in big moments before. He might be. perfect for Kirk's dogs. I'm just. saying. But boy, that first drive was. not what Tai was telling me. That that. is not what Tai was telling me about. whenever I watched him play. He's a dog. though. So is Nico Mariola. I don't know. if you West Virginia. >> Yeah. Yeah. But but. >> what was that?

To the Iowa fans out there, I want to. say y'all need to be worried about Roco. Obeck cuz that guy's been pretty damn. good for two games. >> Unbelievable. >> Yeah. So just don't worry about your. passing game. You better worry about. stopping his. Well, I mean, they played. rugby for a long time and didn't have a. passing game. So, it would be nice maybe. if their quarterback could complete a P, which he did. Third down, made a big. time ball, made a big time throw, and. here's a touchdown. That's a boom. Absolute dime. Guy from Albany had no. shot on this. Guy from Albany had no. idea that a D1 double A Heisman winner.

was going to be throwing darts right in. front of his face. Granowski might lead. this Iowa team to the promised land. Now, Iowa's kicker hit a 55 yard last. week. Iowa State's kicker hit a 63 y. last week. You're talking big legs at. Iowa Iowa State. Excited for that game. Let's get back to West Virginia because. you shoot it off so bad. I don't like. what you did there. I don't like what. you did there at all. >> Oh, I just wanted to finish the other. point. I'm you know, I'm a mountaineer. at heart. >> Big one. We need to win this. >> big one. That's what I grew up watching. >> Ohio this weekend.

>> Yeah, the Bobcats. >> They're good score. >> You know, I can't I can't believe how. did they schedule that game to play a. >> What's that? Oh, away. >> Aren't they Aren't they playing tough. years, coach? Been some tough years in. Morgantown, coach. I don't know if they. have a lot of ground. >> You were winning a lot of things. You I. don't think you were paying attention. what was going on Morgantown. Connor's. point. There's a lot of down time. >> There's a lot of time. >> Got to go on the road a couple times to. some of these schools. >> Yeah. >> But I'm all for the Mountaineers. I'm. I'm hopeful they have success this week.

I'd love to see him beat Pit next week. >> Hell yes. We like these things. These. are all things we like hearing. >> Look out for Scotty Fox, too. Freshman. quarterback. went for 59 yards last week. about fourth quarter. >> Jeene. >> Jeene White dog. I have no idea who all. on that team. >> There's Scotty right there. >> There he is. That's Scotty Fox. He he uh. first kid I think graduated early to get. the spring ball. >> Jesus. >> Like that makes I think it's first West. Virginia guy that's done that. And as. soon as he arrived as a 17-year-old, they the boys said the Moxy's.

outrageous. They gravitate to him is. what they say. All right. Anyway, sorry. about this. Last question from AJ for. Coach Sabin. Go ahead, AJ. >> Yeah, coach. you were talking about. making in those type of games earlier, you're trying to make your team better. in in these early games sometimes when. the matchups might be, you know, a. little lopsided. Like how valuable is it. to get reps for guys that maybe your. second, third team players, these young. inexperienced guys, like how big is it. to get as many players in as possible to. where as the year goes, you know, you. know, you're going to need some of them. when it really matters in, you know, December, even January?

>> Oh, I don't think there's any question. about the fact that that's really, really important. And when we didn't. have a u a tough game to start with and. we played, you know, sort of an easier. team, even though we were trying to get. our team better from a personnel. standpoint, I looked at it a little bit. like an exhibition game. So I knew if we. got ahead by 24 points, I was putting. two in so he could play quarterback and. get reps or whatever because he's a. freshman. So or whoever it was at every. position because you're going to need. that depth down the road and to get.

those guys experience is really really. important I think. and an opportunity to. help develop your team. >> Uh Amari Cooper retired yesterday. >> That that shocked me. >> Yeah, I think all of us came out of. nowhere while we were live and when I. was told it via uh Bruce Brown who's. sitting in for ZTO who we love and uh. congrats to Zitto and his family. The He. said uh Amari Cooper retired and I was. trying to figure out what sport that was. from. He was like Amari Cooper and I was. like wide receiver. Yeah. I'm like that. came out of nowhere. I think I don't.

know how often you talk to him, right? Catch up with him, but Amari Cooper was. a beast of a football player and uh we. appreciate the hell everything he did. for the sport. >> Yeah. Well, he he he caught over 100. balls for us. I mean, he was fantastic. when he played for us and he was a great. competitor. U very quiet guy, maybe a. little misunderstood sometime because he. was so quiet. Um but a good person and a. great competitor and u he's had a good. career. Uh I hate to see people like. that. um you know, not be able to.

continue their career for whatever. reasons, but I'm sure he's got a good. reason to hang it up. >> Congrats, Amari. >> Congratulations. >> Hell of a run. We hope you're happy. That's a tough decision to make, just. like I'm sure it was for you to retire. and jump into TV, but we're thankful you. did. You crush it every single week with. us and on game day. >> Well, I don't know about all that, but I. enjoy it because my biggest concern was. being a part of a team. not being a part. of a team if I retired and doing this. has enabled me to be a part of a team.

which you're a part of which I I really. appreciate and enjoy that part of it. I. you know I I like preparing. I like. being a part of the game. It gives you. you know you stay significant in. football by doing this. >> Yeah. I think your influencer helps. football. So we're very thankful on the. return side that you're doing it. Just. watch what you're doing with your stick. >> Mhm. >> You know. Jeez. I I I was ready for a. fight. >> Yeah, you kind of backed off a little. bit. >> Back off a little bit.

>> Yeah, I did. I had to. I mean, what do. you want? The alpha in the room just. showed up with a stick. I had no idea. Big girthy. >> And uh yeah, it is a big girthy stick. there in Coach Dabin's hand. And then he. he obviously. >> we sword fought a little bit. We'll see. if there's any repercussions. You know, they call them receipts in the wrestling. business. We shall see how it goes. tomorrow. But it's an honor to get a. chance to chat with you. We appreciate. you, ladies and gentlemen. Good man. >> Seventh. >> time national champion coach save. >> Thank you coach. >> Yeah, coach. >> As he gets that all wrapped up, what's.

going to happen tomorrow in the game? Michigan win, Oklahoma win. Who's uh. >> after. >> who's the money on, Tone? Do you know? I. know. >> I don't I do not know who the money's. on. I know that Oklahoma is favored. I. know that each team has a lot of. question marks. Obviously, both defenses. are really, really good. There's no. question marks on the defense. Both. defenses are going to show up. It's all. about the quarterbacks, the offensive. line, and how because both last year. both of these offenses ranked 100 or. worse. >> Well, we I think we all can tell. Michigan's offense is much different. >> Yeah. Well, like for you, like so I mean. in college, I guess like when you're.

preparing for a game like this, is there. I mean obviously Oklahoma's got a bunch. of good athletes on their team, but is. there any way you can prep prepare for a. guy like like he's going to be probably. the best athlete on the field when he's. out there? >> No. So, no, you can't. there there's. going to be somebody that plays, hey, that I'm going to be Bryce Underwood. I'm going to give you a look. But no, you can't get a true look, especially. with the size of the guys, too. Like I. we played Vince Young my senior year and. we walk out to the coin toss and Vince. is 9 ft tall and runs a 4340 and looks. like he's not even struggling to run. Like he's so smooth and you cannot like.

it might take a few series to adjust to. that speed and size, I think. But with. Underwood, like his the way he how young. he is and how he looked at week one, I. know it's just one week. Remember their. offense last year? They couldn't throw. the ball. They couldn't get the ball. down the field. And this guy looks very, very comfortable. So, I think Michigan I. don't know how the game's going to go, but man, it's going to be it should be a. great game. I don't know. It's a test. for Oklahoma. No question. Defensively. >> Yeah, it will be for sure. That's I mean. cuz. >> who' they have last week? Someone. >> New Mexico. >> New No, Michigan had Illinois State.

Roll birds. Yeah. And they like that's. quite Oklahoma couldn't run the ball. against roll birds last week and now. you're going to try to do it against. Michigan. Yeah. It's going to be. whatever offense improves from week one. That'll be the the key. >> Yeah. We'll see the quarterbacks. Always. a quarterback battle. Pat, I believe you. uh your your back. Coach Sabin is off. And here we go. Who do we have with you? Pat. Looks nice doing a little intro. >> Yeah. Live living legend, eighttime. national champion, the reigning. defending undisputed SEC coach of the. year, the United States of America. softball coach of the year, and uh.

friend of the program, ladies and. gentlemen, an absolute. >> dog. [Laughter]. Oklahoma Sooners softball coach, Coach. Patty Gasso. >> Hey guys, >> coach, how are you? >> I'm good. I wasn't ready for this, so. >> it is what it is. >> Yeah, I send a I send a Hail Mary this. morning to Coach Gasso cuz I completely. forgot that she was friend of the. program until I landed here. And uh all. I could think of is how much we all love. you. We followed your team like that.

You are you have become our softball. team. We are massive fans of the way you. operate, the way you coach. And we know. next year the ninth national. championship is coming. What do we. think? How do we feel about the team? Obviously last year didn't win a. national championship. So. >> sorry, >> the field won, Oklahoma lost. Uh. motivation into the offseason. How do we. feel about the next season? >> Good. Because we have almost everybody. back. We had 14 new athletes last. season. So we're we're loaded, locked, ready to go. Had a great number one. freshman class coming in. We're ready.

We'll do it. >> Okay, let's talk about the. million-dollar pitcher for Texas Tech. Yeah, correct. >> What do you mean? Oh, no. >> That's I think that's good that women's. softball has that type of situation. business-wise happening around it. Obviously, I got a chance to see your. stadium last year. We got a chance to. follow your story. It's huge and it's. only growing, I think. Right. There's a. I think there's a professional league uh. that is kind of on the up and up. It. feels like women's softball is a rocket. ship right now. That million-dollar. thing to me to the pitcher Texas Tech, I.

forget her name. Uh. >> Niga Kennedy, >> absolute beast, by the way. Watching her. through the entire World Series was off. uh awesome. She's worth every penny. They get all the way to the World. Series. But that it the business of. women's softball good, right? It feels. like all eyes and a lot of attention on. your sport. >> A lot the pros have done a great job of. moving themselves up. They've got new. leadership and um getting a lot of TV. time. And obviously Niga has changed the. sport with the money. The problem is we.

all don't have the same kind of money. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. >> That's where we're struggling. >> Yeah. Football's got the same issue. Let's go to one of those schools that. has all the money. AJ has a question for. you, Coach G. >> Yeah. Coach, how how different is it now. in the SEC than it was in the Big 12 for. you as a coach? Do you see like week in. and week out? Is it a tougher road? >> Oh, 1 million%. And the fact that we won. the SEC was probably one of the proudest. moments I've had as a coach because. nobody expected that. and we won the. regular season tournament as well. So,

it was a fun journey, but very hard. It's a gauntlet of tough teams where. everybody's in the top 25. >> I know you transferred in some pitchers. last year. I got a chance to bat against. them. That became a big storyline. because the people at game day that. edited the video did it in the most lazy. fashion that I thought was just just. took the easiest way to make me look. terrible. I thought it was cuz I was. hitting it well and then as soon as I. got to your picture, I couldn't even. sniff it. So, I thought there was a much. better video that could have been made.

and I thought it was just like an easy. way to bury me. Now, out of context that. gets anonymously leaked by a prick and. to make me look bad and it it it started. paints that way. But my respect for your. sport and your team through the roof. It. wasn't I was upset because I got nothing. on the ball. I thought it was just very. lazy edit to make me look terrible. But. once I got in there, that riser that she. threw, I forget the transfer from Cam. the Camels. What was the team? >> Campbell. >> I forget where she.

>> Campbell maybe. >> Um, >> that's who it was, right? It was. transfer from Campbell. >> Bella Smith. >> Yes. Yes. She was the one pitching to. me. And that riser I was like, holy, I. don't even know how. And you, everybody. was like, the only way you don't get a. strike there is if you don't swing at. it. But how the hell do you know not to. swing at it? Impossible to hit. Like. that was the biggest takeaway. Is the. sport only getting better? Are pitchers. only getting better? like that riser. Has that always been in the sport? >> Okay, so let's call it a rise ball. because no one calls it a riser in our. sport. So I want to help you with.

legitimacy and I but I do agree you did. have some very good swings and they did. probably do a lazy job. >> There was lazy took the easy way. Thank. you. >> I was there. I witnessed it with my own. eyes. I agree with you. >> Like how do we bury this guy as quick as. possible is what they did for the video. And I was like that is just so lazy. But. it was a string of events too of things. that were happening as such with this. game day people. So that's neither here. nor there. >> They they made coach stab look really. really good. >> Everybody else. Yeah. Everybody else.

>> Holy [ __ ]. >> Scramble the jame. Get that cameraman. Get that cameraman. >> Cameraman. Get that. >> Cameraman. Zoom in. Cameraman. Are you kidding me? Camera missed it. Fire that cameraman now. >> Shout out to Ryan's good guy. Shout out. to our fighter jets, by the way. >> Are they real? Cuz we didn't get to see. them cuz cameraman sucks. Jesus.

>> No, you don't suck. They're saying. terrible things about you right now. You. need to you need to keep the. distractions outside. Don't even listen. to what they're saying in Indiana. Now, >> that would have been. >> You guys just shamed him. It's okay. >> Yeah, you're good. You're good. >> You You would have done the same. He. found he found the horns last week in. that stadium. Okay. This guy's a good. guy. >> I bet he did. I bet he did. But last. week doesn't matter. If you were to ask. Coach Gasso if you know a player. sprinted to first base last week but. they didn't this week, are they still. getting reamed out? They better be.

>> Yeah, it's true. A little. accountability. I actually like that. You kind of [ __ ] up there. Uh so. >> yeah, >> this shot would have been awesome. He. had no idea it was coming in. Also, that. thing in like a fire. >> That was unbelievable. Solo, you don't. see that a lot. No, >> I don't see a lot of just. >> That was fast. >> Yeah, I actually never have seen one. Guess I never will compromise. >> Okay. >> Okay, let's get back to softball. >> Rise ball. >> Rise ball.

>> That I assume that wasn't always in. softball. Like, is is softball still. developing and getting better and. better? And. >> I think the hitters are getting better. actually. They're learning how to hit. the riser. So, >> whoa, whoa, don't call it that. You. sound like a newbie. Don't Don't call it. the riser. Don't let me. >> the rise ball. They can hit the rise. ball now. They can. They're better. hitters in the game. Uh they're catching. up to pitchers. >> Do you think it's making the game more. exciting? >> Yes. You want to see home runs. You want. to see a lot of runs scored. I don't.

think people like some people like the. 10 ball game. Real tight. Goes by real. fast. But I think everybody likes. offense. >> Uh home runs. You started getting mad at. your pitchers whenever the batters. started getting better. >> Yeah. >> What the hell are we doing? >> What What are we doing? It's like, well, make the pitchers are like, I threw my. best pitch and the batters are just. getting better. I think that's good for. the sport. Tone has a question for you. in a cowboy hat back in Indianapolis. >> Yeah, coach, you talked about all your. returning talent and and all obviously. all the success. I I believe I asked you.

last year about um you know, how you. keep the team motivated. I I assume with. all the returning talent that the. motivation is not a hard thing right now. and it's it's incredible to see them. working towards another national. championship next season. >> Yeah, I'm really excited. They're out on. the field already. We haven't even. started. So, they're out every day. Um, somebody's hitting better fungo ground. balls than I am out there. >> So, yeah, they're working hard. They're. in the cages. They're they're doing. everything right already. And we haven't. even opened up our start of our.

practice. >> Coach, how are you? How are you with the. fungo? >> Pretty good. >> Legal. Yeah. >> Yeah. >> One-handed or we. >> You don't You don't know. You don't hit. funo one-handed like like Little League. >> I don't know. I don't play. I I was. there. >> See, in Little League they have the. one-handed fungo and the glove so they. can feed it and catch it. No, we don't. do that. No. >> Do you have any pitchers that have the. the both hands thing where they have. that glove where they switch the hands?

>> Yeah. Pitch both hands. Bang. And then all of a sudden we get to. the next one. Bang. >> I've never. >> Maybe something look Mackenzie McAfee, class of uh she's two, so it would be 16. years from now. >> Quick math. 41. Class of 2041. >> She can pitch both hands. >> Really? >> Yeah. She's got the rise ball with the. left and the right. >> ball. >> And you should see her. She's a lefty by. >> I just want to be alive for that. So. I'll be there. >> Gos, you're never dying.

I don't ever want to hear that. Then did. you have a uh did I see you had a brace. of some sort on you the last time or was. that. >> uh Yeah, I broke my wrist. Yeah, >> you're doing what? Punching up. >> Uh no, I just. I tripped. >> Somebody didn't get a hit. Somebody. >> cameraman didn't. >> Some cameraman missed a a fighter jet. Uh Ty has a question for you. Coach. Castle. >> Coach, have you noticed. >> I need to hug him. I need to hug Oh my. god. Not from us. From us. We're in the.

middle of the game. >> What did he do? He did what he was. supposed to do. >> No. No. He that fight. >> You were behind him before they start. You were behind him. What are our. standards? You know that that What are. my standards for him? >> He's a good cameraman. This guy is good. He's been there. I've seen him in. action. >> I'm trying. >> I'm trying. >> Coach Gasto, don't be making excuses. >> Okay. Sorry. >> Now, with that being said, he is taking. it on shins pretty good. That would have. been a very tough thing for him to. catch. There is. >> actually there's a overhead.

>> I don't even know if he would have got. it. I don't even know if he would have. got it, but just the lack of urgency I. think is what we're talking. Sorry, Ty. Sorry about that. Talking about Ryan. here, >> coach. Listen, if you have, you know, runners on second and third, uh, and. you, you know, your your team's in the. field and your center fielder drops a. pop fly and they score two runs. Guess. what? You're probably reaming her ass. out. It's kind of a similar situation to. what we just had, but you know, we we'll. let bygones be be bygones. Just curious. though, going to the, you know, SEC, have you noticed is like the style of.

play maybe a little bit different than. it was in the Big 12 and I guess across. America? Like are there different. pockets, you know, for different styles. of play or does that not really lend. itself to softball? >> Uh, I think so. I think the the. intensity is just completely different. and to be quite honest everybody is so. serious and so everybody has like that. mean like. yeah there's just a lot of lot of game. faces. >> a lot of game faces I'm like everybody.

all right what's going on why can't we. >> kind of smile at each other or anything. it just doesn't happen it's just intense. >> like are you back are You are in. >> No. No. >> Yes, you are. >> We feel like you are. >> Why? You guys are in bad mood. I. >> bad mood. No, we're always we're always. just. >> Yeah, I know. Who's taken the over here, too? >> He earned it, coach.

>> Yeah, you earned it, coach. You know. >> So, no, I am not that. I am more of I've. I've come to a place in my career where. it's like I'm blessed. This is fun. Let's go. We win, great. If we don't, we'll be better. >> I try to. >> I love that. Well, you've earned that. All of that. Last question for you here. from Boston Connor. Go ahead, brother. >> Yeah, coach. By the way, if you think. what we're saying to the cameraman is. bad, you should hear what we're saying. to this guy Debbone in the office. Um, looking at the. >> debones everything. He did everything,

coach. He He certainly warranted. everything that said he's got a lot of. calluses on his shins, though, and also. on his taste buds. >> Mhm. Yeah. We're trying to help him. We're trying to, you know, help him grow. up a little. I had to go through the. same thing. You know, they had to tell. me to stop eating funions for breakfast, things of that nature. Um, but look, >> I'm these guys first boss. I'm a lot of. these people's first boss. Yeah. Just. something to think about. >> Not Ryan. Ryan obviously. Now, I would. say if I was, >> he would have been fired.

>> I'm not saying I'm not saying I'm not. saying it. I'm not saying it. Sorry. Go. back to Conor's question. with with being in the SEC and Texas. winning the national championship. Coach, obviously that rivalry is already. there between Oklahoma and Texas, but do. you sense other rivalries starting to. form with the new teams you're playing. in the SEC? Like, did you go to Arkansas. and did you just think like this place. is disgusting? I don't even like it. here. Was there any of that? Um or or is. it more so based on what you just said. kind of, hey, if we win, awesome. If we.

lose, let's just get better type of. vibe. >> All right. So, let me share with you. that my younger son is the hitting coach. for Arkansas. >> So, so we do hit Arkansas. Boom. >> Oh, that's awesome. >> Wig sui. Wig sui. >> Yeah. I can't. It's it's it's business. >> Yeah, of course. Of course it is. But. has there been any obviously with Texas. that's a natural one? >> Um there's some salty there's some salty. stuff going on here.

>> No salty. >> I like that. What are we What are we. reading? Do you guys do the garbage can. hitting stuff whenever we're trying to. pick up like like the MLB does? >> These guys just if a if a coach is. trying to. >> kind of make some kind of pitch call. like they can pick off our pitcher, our. dugouts just screaming right on top of. whoever it is. >> Oh, really? >> Oh, yeah. >> I love the games. I love that. >> All right. Well, as we wrap up here, we. can't thank you enough for stopping by. Thank you for adding it into your. schedule. We love you legitimately.

>> Oh, thank you guys. Yeah, we we are the. best coach. >> You're the goat. >> But I I love our cameraman. So hard. You guys, too. But tough on him today. I. just felt love. >> Yeah, we'll see if he's here next week. But. >> yeah, we uh. >> he's great. We love him. >> That is why we're telling them, hey, can't miss that cuz we love him, you. know. That is this is a sign of love, you know. Uh I think you understand. that. All right. Well, good luck this.

year. Thanks. >> You're our softball team, so let's go. wins. >> Oh, thank you. Have a good show. tomorrow. >> Thanks for being here, guys. >> Ladies and gentlemen, eight time. national champion, Coach Patty. >> Thanks, coach. >> Yeah, Patty Patty genuinely feels bad. for for Cameron Ryan, doesn't he? >> He doesn't. She does not. >> I would assume majority of people. watching probably do. >> Yeah. I mean, it's not personal, right, Con Man? >> Yeah. Well, no, it's not. Um, I'm. assuming most of the people watching, that's my thing, Tone, is they were. probably like, "Oh, do you hear that. fighter jet? I want to say it." cuz. that's what I'm thinking. And then.

because Ry guy over there was shaking. the camera and couldn't get it off some. sort of thingy, we couldn't see it. It's. a bummer, but that's okay. >> I would assume his camera is on a nice. big tripod situation and he's going to. try to pick it up and run from. underneath the camera. >> Run. No. >> What can he do? >> No. No. >> Zoom out. >> No. >> Oh, coach. I like that. >> See you, Patty. >> Good luck, coach. Good luck, coach. He. wouldn't have been able to get it. whenever it was overhead. Obviously, I.

don't think he would have been able to. do that. This one over here over this. >> Oh, we could have saw it. He just did. it. >> We might have. Did we see it? >> Hey, too little, too late, ass hat. >> Hey, next time. Next time. It's coming. back. It's coming back. I know it's. coming back. All right. I We hope you'll. come back or stay with us for our uh. digital portion of the show. We're on. YouTube, Tik Tok Live, Disney Plus, ESPN. Plus, and uh we're going to be making. all our picks for the weekend. We think. we're seeing the field well. should be. pretty beneficial for all parties. And. uh if we don't see you there, we'll see.

you on overreaction Monday. Be a friend, tell a friend something nice that might. change your life. Greatest weekend we've. had in some time. Enjoy it all. See you. tomorrow on game day. Goodbye. Nailed. it. I think I think I nailed it. >> You got it. >> Hell yeah. You got it. >> That's with a delay. >> Delay. >> There's a couple. You know what I mean? >> Pretty solid delay. Yeah. >> Yeah. They don't even know. >> Now, I will say if you go back to last. week's episode, I complimented Ryan and. Buck and D a lot. camera people. >> Yeah. A little too much it sounds like. based on their performance today.

>> I you know I think he was. >> I don't want to speak for Ryan. >> Was he sleeping? >> He was out. >> If he was sleeping we got issues but. other than that that would have been a. tough thing to get. >> Ryan Ryan's living the high life in. Oklahoma thinking everything's sweet. thinking shit's just made in the shade. drinking lemonade. No. >> I think I think he was actually worried. about uh coach Gasso. It appeared as if. he was paying attention to something. with coach Gasso. And then as I was. screaming, you see him look at me and.

then hey, hey, hey. And then bang, he's. got to loosen that thing. And then he. starts go what? And then gone. You know, and that's what happens to fighter jets. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> And Ryan learned that lesson. Hey, if. that thing sounds like a fighter jet, it's coming pretty quick. You know, that. thing's going to be here and it's going. to be gone. We learned a lesson today. and we have to point it out or we'll. never get better. And that's just part. of the program. That's the way it is. Yeah, >> but Ryan's been great for us two weeks. into this. Let's remember that. We can't. just toss all that out. >> He's been okay for us. Great for us. Would set. >> You weren't there when he found those.

trumpets around the horseshoe. >> He did. >> You weren't there for that. Okay. >> Remember how ass that sounded? You. remember that? >> Yeah. And that was cool. Trumpets around. the horseshoe that was pissing us off. >> Cool ass fly over with one solo jet. Come on. >> Yeah, I know. It would have been really. cool going over that scoreboard, too. It. would have been pretty historic. >> How low was he in that? Was he pretty. low? >> Pretty low. Yeah, he's low. >> Tower, I heard. Yeah. >> The um cloud. What's that called? The.

ceiling. >> Cirrus. >> The stratosphere. >> Cumo Nimbus. >> I don't know. There's something for what. the [ __ ] cloud thing is called. It's. uh I don't know what it's called, but. they're flying under the clouds. >> Oh man, dude. That's like my dream. That's like the only [ __ ] thing I've. never seen. I want to see it. >> That's a [ __ ]. >> Yeah. And now that I think about it, Connor, we should be someday. >> Coach Gasso should have been saying. sorry to you. >> Yeah, this really You know how I was. flying really high? This is like the. first time I haven't been since football.

started. >> Thanks, Ryan. >> I mean, >> are you all right? >> Are those bells for you? Are those bells. for your funeral? >> Yeah, actually. >> Conor, are you all right? I know. >> with the with the bells. And I'm going. to be completely honest. [Music]. >> What? >> He's done it. Ryan, I hope you're happy. Connor just quit. I think. >> he's done. >> Someone might need to check on him. >> Hope that. >> he's devastated. >> Is he crying? >> Ryan, he's I hope you understand what's. happening back in Indianapolis.

>> AR is feeling bad for you. I Nobody's. really feeling bad about He's gone. >> He almost went right to the brick wall. >> Could have been worse. Insult to injury. is what they call that. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> That was him yelling right there. >> Yeah, it was. >> Yeah. >> He's going to go dump all over himself. >> Hope that. >> Hope you're happy, Ryan. over has a cap. on it. >> Ryan said he's so sorry. I just want to. let you know that. >> it doesn't. >> Ryan said he's so water everywhere. >> Was that a bunch of Zin spit all over. the. >> Oh, I hope not. >> No. >> Oh, no. It didn't spill. Didn't spill.

>> He got lucky. >> He knocked the mic over. >> He got lucky. >> He has been talking about since I've. known him. What is that? Eight years. about wanting to see. >> in Oklahoma one fighter jet. >> fly. >> right under the cloud cover too. He. said, >> he said he talked to his father's father. about it when he was a child. Yeah. >> And just never thought it would come and. then. >> here it was. >> He didn't get a chance to see it. I saw. it though for him. I guess I should just. design like. >> Can you uh recreate it? >> You draw a recreation. >> You should go to the police station and.

see if they can sketch it. >> Oh, there you go. >> He had wing had two wings. >> Bingo. >> I'll never forget it. Had two wings. Had. a nose. Pretty sharp. >> Okay. Sounded like it had a couple jet engines. on it. Sounded out the. >> That some [ __ ] did a hard bank, too, at. the end as it. >> pulling n. >> It's like it wanted to do about a 100. yard dash here down the field and then. he the bank. Oh my god. The bank shot. >> You think they were on missiles or had. they switched to guns?

>> I think that was on uh buckshot. Okay. >> I think that was on buck shot. >> Okay. >> Yeah. Okay. >> All right. On the other side, let's make. our picks. >> Hell yeah, >> Ryan. It's okay. >> Yep. >> Guy might have quit the show, but. >> will you guys talk to him? Get him back. >> Yeah. Yeah, we'll we'll do our best. >> Someone will. Foxy will probably or. something like it. >> Dumpy, do you see he's gone? He walked. out. He couldn't take it anymore. >> He'll be back. >> Are you sure? >> It's Pix Friday. >> I don't know. But it was fighter jet in.

Oklahoma. He dreamed about since he was. a kid Friday, too. >> Week one. He'll be back. >> We'll see. >> We'll see, won't we? >> Mhm. Guess we'll see. >> Guess we'll see. It's gone done with the. show. >> I hope not. >> Yeah, it'd be tough. >> It would make sense though with how cool. that was. >> that I saw. >> Once in a lifetime thing. >> He was so close. We were very close to. seeing it. >> Mhm. >> The thing about it though, Ryan didn't. see it either. So Ryan's in the same. position that Connor kind of did. It was. his dream to see that too.

>> Everybody's kind of bummed out. Let's. take a break and get back. Okay. >> Reset. Reset. Yeah. Mirits lifted on the. other side as if 10 fighter jets are. going to be flying over. right right over top. Let's act like. that's about to happen cuz we're making. our first picks Friday. Okay, let's go. >> Deal. >> Let's see the field, AJ. >> We're seeing it. We are. >> Let's Let's get it right, AJ. Let's get. them all right. >> I think we're going undefeated. >> We're going undefeated. >> Why not us having a perfect slate? We.

started already good. Started already. called the whole [ __ ] game. >> Mhm. >> That over should have hit. >> It did. >> Well, Tony was. >> forgot. Yeah, I forgot my. Jeez. >> I wasn't wait for it not to hit. So, in. my mind, it hit. >> I I was in week one form. I am not ready. to stay up that late for. >> Come on. I didn't see this in real time. >> Disgusting. I stayed up to not watch it hit. >> All right, we'll be back on the other.

side. >> Thanks. >> Make our picks. Let's be positive. >> Let's not miss on once in a lifetime. things on your side. >> Okay. >> Can somebody call that jet? >> Yeah. Can you circle back another round? >> It's cheap. >> Save him. Probably could. >> Yeah, >> it is cheap, isn't it, AJ? I've heard. I've heard this price. >> Sure. It's super cheap for them to. circle back around. >> It's part of It's part of their. training. Okay. >> They're going to do those flights. anyways. Do those flights anyways. I. agree. I agree. I'm on that team.

I'm sorry. >> I think everybody is. >> You shouldn't say that on the internet, though, cuz. they'll tell me. >> I got a lot of people that don't follow. me telling me I'm the worst person on. Earth. It's like. >> Mhm. >> I mean, sure, but you don't know that. You don't follow me close enough. >> The commercial thing. That's not the. reason I think I'm the biggest [ __ ]. on Earth at all. Jeez. All right. Be a.

friend. Tell friends something nice. about might change your life. We're. making our picks on the other side. Somebody get Connor back. >> Yep. You got it. >> And somebody tell Connor Ryan's bum, too. He didn't get to see it, you know. >> Mhm. >> Sounds like he's not going to listen. right now. >> All right, take your time. Go to the. bathroom. We're picking at perfect slate. on the other side. >> Hell yeah. >> We'll see you then. Goodbye. >> Make a running. Make it spinning. Make. it kicking. This Buckeye's team is. playing football at a level nobody else.

in the country is playing right now. [Applause]. [Music]. >> That's so stupid. It's crazy to do that. and also take us off the [ __ ] we do. not deserve this. >> They all commit and love what's going on.

in that wait room. They all commit and. love what Jim Harbaugh is preaching and. everybody in the building's happy. Everybody's like excited to be there. >> First row in the first row, second row. is here. >> It is infectious what they got going on. And how many owners are spending 300. million on a new facility just for. practice facility? >> This is Butler Birdies. Wow. There might go. >> Oh [ __ ].

>> But then for them to do it upright for. the last couple, it's like look out for. the Chargers, dude. Look out for the. Chargers, >> coach. >> Hey, I got a gift for you. >> Where you at? >> Okay. So, miss your birthday. We miss. Christmas. We. >> Oh, look at that. Your perspective on. high five is one of the greatest things. you've ever seen. We all have time. >> I love the high five. >> Yeah. Give each other a high five.

>> Boom. >> Oh my god. >> Wow. >> Boom. >> [ __ ]. >> We wanted to make you basically. something that you could have. My dad. made this. >> Oh wow. >> That feeling. Yeah. Boom. And that's I think we can get a pretty. good pause for me. >> Yeah. [Music]. >> That is incredible.

>> Obviously, national champion Michigan. Manning. Greatest high five. >> Yeah. >> Because of what you brought before the. high five. [Music]. [Applause]. [Music]. >> Oh, yeah. >> He tried to give a handshake to that. particular high five trophy. did break. the hand off. We had to put it back on. >> We're going to go handshake. >> Oh no. Oh no. >> There we go.

>> We have so much respect. >> You guys just rolled deep. This is. >> This would be entourage level, wouldn't. it? >> To be honest, we didn't know we were. going to be able to get 11 people in. here and then we would have 11. That's. That's where should I be? >> Yeah. They always start. >> I mean, wow. It looks like a lot of. highlights against one particular team. >> They played more than one game. Why do. they have.

>> for one game? >> Imposing our will. >> This sucks. >> Party in the back field. >> No one. >> No one outs the husband. This might be. close. >> I love that Chargers Dean even more now. If you were to touch this grass, it. would feel as if the history of football. was kind of one with your soul, one with. your body. And then you look at the. views, the sand, >> Gabriel Gabriel, >> mountains with the cotton candy clouds, the way the sun will rise and then the. sun will set and as the sun is setting.

tonight, there's going to be a football. game taking place. You're talking about. movie stuff. What do you think it is. about your team in that locker room? And. why do you think you guys have been able. to show up every week? >> You know, I think the buyin uh on our. team is unbelievable. We talk about a. player team. I think a lot of people say. that, but so rarely do you actually see. it. >> Two Goliath Big 10 teams. What a magical. matchup here in the Rose Bowl. And. watching Ohio State do what they did to. Tennessee, it felt good for a North. They did. It felt good for the B. >> My god, look at those mountains. >> Look at those mountains. St. Gabriel. Mountains. There's the field. >> The San Gabriel.

>> St. Gabriel. >> I believe that means the Gabriel. all parties and all agree that it's in. the best interest of everybody in public. safety uh that we postpone the game for. 24 hours. The DJ Hawks working for the goal. [Music]. >> Hello, beautiful people and welcome to.

beautiful Pasadena, California. The. granddaddy of them all, the 111th. Rose Bowl, which will be taking place on. the most beautiful field in the history. of football, the Oregon Ducks, who are. the Big 10 champs, will take on the Ohio. State Buckeyes. The College Football Playoff is. obviously in the middle of a transition. era, but we go back in time into a movie. like setting to battle in the Big 10 to.

see who gets to move on and who goes. home. Our UFO just flew over top these. two smoke bomber and in the national. anthem. And on a day in the United. States of America where a heinous act. has happened, it's a nice reminder that. we'll get your ranks. You might take a. shot, but you're never going to win. And. 10 for Will Howard. Same exact play. action. Drops it off to Jeremiah Smith. Quit spaces. He's a monster.

Jeremiah Smith first touches a. tie shot. Oh, touchdown. >> See the split safety right here. So Will. Howard knows through. Looks small. Steps. up in the pocket. Great throw. >> Takes a shot and what happens? Jeremiah. Smith comes up with the ball. Hand off. run to the left. Jordan James. >> Will Howard time. Oh no. Jeremiah.

Smith's wide ass open. Ohio State is kicking the living shite. out of the Oregon Ducks. If Jeremiah. Smith is on your team, I think you can. win every game. Trion Henderson. He's at the 30, the 20, the 10. Touchd. Games. They can run it. They can spin. it. They can kick it. This Buckeye's. team is playing football at a level. nobody else in the country is playing.

right now. Yeah, there's a low snap. Rose left, Rose counts to the right. Jerem field. So, that's another first. down. Thus far, this game has been. absolutely. >> shed. Open him. Step him. Oh my god. >> Wow. That is so beautiful. You got Matt Hardy.

on the left there. [Applause]. >> I see it. The 47. Unfortunately, my. youngest son uh puked all over himself. and went to the hospital. So, my whole. family's not here anymore to hear that. >> But I'm getting some updates every once. in a while. He seems to be doing not. much better. >> He puked over the whole section. >> Jeez. >> Instant urgent care. Instant hospital. >> Oh no. >> What type of [ __ ] was he eating? Is. someone making salmon down here? We came. down here and smelled like fish. >> Look at this. >> For those that have never been here, I. would recommend coming and checking it.

out. Although this particular game was. absolute. >> shining. >> Woo! [Music]. >> Hey, >> why? >> Let's go. This show sticks and the fact that you. listen, we are very, very thankful.

Makabe on the line with a gorgeous. assist. >> The alltime leading tackler for the. Green Bay Packers. You pick. >> Damn it. >> Your friend, tell a friend something. nice could change their life. [Applause]. [Music]. >> Here we go. Hour three. Friday, September 5th. Feelood Friday. Pat and. Gumpy are in Norman, Oklahoma about to. watch some big time ball.

>> Football. >> Football. >> Yes. >> I I don't know if we nailed it or not. We nailed it. >> You got it. Gumpy's with you. How you. guys doing, Pat? >> We're great. Gumpy's been absolutely. crushing it over here. Gumpy saw a solo. fighter jet fly over the stadium here in. Norman, Oklahoma. Ain't that right? >> Yeah, it was beautiful. >> What a sight to behold. I will say. throughout the entire break, Ryan was. working on getting camera to find one of. those. And he also built a paper uh. plane. Yes. That he was gonna see it. >> Send across. It was great. Yeah. You can.

put it. >> I bet it's gonna be funny. >> Yeah. >> Oh, that's pretty bomb or a stealth. bomb. >> Yeah, that's kind of what. >> I love it. Right. >> I'm going to say. >> No, that's not what over, right? It. wasn't a highly classified vehicle. flying over in the stadium, was it? >> I sent the video in some guy's IG story. He added me in it. Uh Foxy, can you pull. that out of the group text? Uh maybe. Bruce. Yeah, it's so freaking sick. I. can't even begin to explain. >> Yeah, it was awesome. >> Yeah, but just take it back. Act like it. didn't happen already. Just have this. guy's video be the one of it actually. happening. Con man, great to have you.

back. By the way, Connor there next to. Ty Schmidt at the toxic table. One half. of the hammer. Don Cowboys AP Tone is. here. Don't like doing the second half. of the hammer. >> Cowboys Bubba Gumpino here. Um we are in. Norman, Oklahoma for Oklahoma, Michigan. tomorrow. And uh we're also very excited. to make these picks, AJ. Hell. >> yeah. >> We are gassoed up. >> to go ahead and pick against the spread. We're already batting a thousand. Last. night, we knew the Cowboys are going to.

cover. We knew the Eagles were going to. win. We knew Jaylen was going to score. We knew Saquon was going to score. These. are just things that are gimmies now at. this point whenever these teams are. playing. Jaylen Herz's touchdown might. It was only minus 160, which is. obviously still pretty big. uh still. pretty heavy favorite, but that feels. like a guarantee every single time they. are playing. And with the way he's. playing, with the way they're covering. him, I don't know how he doesn't. continue to get into the end zone. And. if they're going to continue to run the. ball more than they pass it, maybe they. are in the middle of a dynastic run that.

we're going to respect the hell out of. But last night felt easy. Let's see if. the entire spread is the same way. Let's. get started here. Obviously, Sunday is. going to be magical. Can we put the uh. >> Thank you. Kansas City verse Los Angeles. tonight, Friday night. Available on. YouTube. That's crazy. >> Yeah, strictly YouTube. Correct. >> That's going to do big numbers. >> Can't wait to see what it is. >> I'm not positive, but I think you can. watch on YouTube TV as well, which will.

make that number a little bit smaller. >> Okay. Oh, so you're saying whenever it's. broadcasted on other platforms, one of. them might have a little bit less on it. than because it not everybody can see it. in one place. >> Yeah, I would say so. I I would say I'm. already going to go YouTube TV. I just. think it's going to be easier for me. >> Yeah, that's the other thing. >> Go ahead. >> Like people uh not everybody goes on the. same thing to watch something. So if you. put them on multiple places, sometimes. the people who are on those different. places only watch them on that place. instead of going to another place to.

watch it. >> Okay. Oh, so you're saying like if you. are on TV then also on like Disney Plus, ESPN Plus, Tik Tok Live and YouTube, there's a chance that maybe some of them. eat into each other, but if you look at. the entire. pro, you're able to reach everybody. Don't you think that's probably. >> Now we're doing math. >> Yeah, you got to. >> No, >> now we're adding things. One of them.

>> might be a little bit or maybe a couple. of them might be lower than what they. would be. >> [ __ ] idiots everywhere. Now. tonight, Kansas City, Los Angeles. Chargers. I'm excited to see what this. year looks like for the Chiefs. Gumpy, what are your thoughts on this game? >> Chiefs, easy. >> Okay. I. >> Okay. >> All right. Thought maybe we're going to. get an explanation. No explanation. needed, says Gumpy. Anybody injured? Anything we should think about? Rasheed. Rice out for the Chiefs for the first. six weeks, right?

>> Yeah. Anything else? >> Rashan Slater, uh, starting left tackle. for the Chargers who they paid this off. seasonason. He got hurt. He's done for. the year actually. So, he won't be. playing for the Chargers. Um, I can't. think of any other. questionable though. He's not He's not. officially out yet, I don't think. But. aside from that, um I I I think the only. guy that's going to be the biggest miss. is the left tackle, Rashan. >> Um I do have something. The three and a. half uh is correct. If you're going by.

ESPN bet numbers, three and a half is. ESPN bet's the only place that has three. and a half. Everyone everywhere else has. three. So if you're taking the Chiefs, go somewhere else. >> What now? What are we doing? >> Uh we're taking the best number this. year. >> Uh. >> I like that we're doing that. I like. that we're doing that. AJ. >> AJ, who do you like? I like the Chiefs. at at three. Right at three. Give me the. Chiefs. Three. Yes. >> Yeah, we're all in on it. You're at. three, too, as well. >> AJ, maybe think about three and a half. >> Oh, you you don't care. Dumpy says three. and a half good. Four and a half good.

Five and a half good. How many do you. think? >> I understand that tonight. >> I will take three, though. Give me. three. >> I'll take three as well. All right, let's go. Raiders Patriots Mike Vrael. era begins in New England as the Pete. Carroll era begins in Las Vegas. We're. up in Foxboro. Obviously, there's a. Tommy Brady statue up there. They're. also building a Bill Bichc statue up. there. That's good news, >> especially after what happened on Monday. night. We thought maybe statue time was. over for Bill Bich, but he's getting one. up there in New England as he should,

which should be amazing. Con man, two. and a half. Do you feel good about that. with Gino Smith and the boys rolling. into town? >> Yeah, I feel like it should be a pick. them just because there's so many. questions on both teams. Uh Christian. Gonzalez is out. He hasn't really been a. part of anything since the first week of. padded practice with a hamstring. Yeah. Will Campbell questionable. Feels like. he should play. And then for the. Raiders, um aside from Wilkins being. done with the team, I think there was uh. one other situation. Yeah. Or Jacobe. Myers. Yeah. But he Jacobe Myers. requested trade was told no. He is.

playing uh for the Raiders. But yeah, two and a half. I mean, it's one of. those numbers. Let's find out. >> It is two and a half across the board. >> Okay. >> Amari Cooper retired from the Raiders. Oh, that's what it was. Yeah, Mark. >> Yeah. Yeah. There. Mari Cooper just. retired two days ago, but I don't think. anybody was expecting him to be with the. Raiders. Whatever the case, we hoping. Mari Cooper is happy. I will take the. Raiders plus two and a half in Foxboro. Uh, who knows if New England steals a. one-point win, maybe a two-point win, and I still uh get a dub in this.

particular game, but Pete Carol, Gino. Smith, Tom Brady's involved over there. Tom Brady wanted to be quarterback for. the Raiders. >> Tom Brady wanted to be quarterback for. the Raiders. And uh John Gruden said, "I'm sticking with Carr, man." And. everybody said that John Guden hated. Derek Carr. He um he picked him over Tom. Brady allegedly. And when Tom Brady. said, "You're sticking with that. motherfucker." That's who he was talking. about. Derek Carr in Las Vegas. Now he's. an owner. Very hands-on. They got Chip. Kelly running the offense. Max Crosby's. obviously back for another year. I like.

Las Vegas plus two and a half against. New England. AJ, who do you like? >> You know what? I I don't want to go. against you this quick, but I'm going to. have to take the Patriots minus two and. a half. I think the Patriots win by a. field goal. I think very Rabbel's. defense finds a way to get a couple. turnovers, something like that to flip. the game. But yeah, give me the Patriots. minus 2 and a half. >> Gumpy, who do you like there? >> I'll take the Raiders plus two and a. half. Very tight. Very tight game. >> I like that. >> Steelers, Jets. Steelers only favored by. two and a half. They go all in. All in. Spending more money in places and on.

people that they would have never done. in the past. Over under 37 and a half. All points being scored. Arty Smith, Aaron Rogers, DK Metaf, John U Smith, Pat Frymouth, Jaylen Warren, fresh off a. new deal in an offensive line that a lot. of people are wondering, are they going. to be able to be great or not? I'm. excited to see this Pittsburgh Steelers. team against this New York Jets squad. I'm going to take the Steelers minus 2. and a half like I assume everybody that. has a microphone in front of them right. now was doing. >> Yeah, >> absolutely. >> I would imagine, G, you're going to take.

them at two and a half. Sorry if I. jumped in line, but I I'm taking the. Steelers. It's also a weird like. personal game too with Aaron Glenn and. the stuff he's been asked about about. the Steelers and Aaron Rogers how he's. moving on like this. There's like uh I. think both sides from Aaron's side and. from the Jets and Aaron Glenn like I'm. I'm curious to see what pregame looks. like. >> And Justin Fields, you know, Justin. Fields is with the Steelers uh last. year. This is a good week one game. The. fact that the Steelers are favored by. two and a half, >> I would assume it would be more. What. are the sports books saying here, Tone? >> Yeah, it's two and a half uh at most or.

three at some. Um, a lot of people, a. lot of the public is on the Steelers. I. mean, that's just kind of how it is cuz. they've been talked about more all. season. >> 37 and a half. They think it's going to. be a poopy game. >> Yes, they do. Yes, they do. >> KY affair. >> I don't I don't want to be dramatic. Um, if the Steelers win, they're going to go. to Super Bowl. If they lose, the the. season's over. So, man, >> he's right. I know this is week one. If. the Steelers lose this game, it's over. >> Yeah, they need to dash some new drawers. because all Steelers fans will be. [ __ ] their pants about how much. money they spent and what the future.

looks like. Con man, you were about to. say something it sounds like about the. Steelers. >> Uh when Ravi was here, uh this is. actually about the Jets. When Ravi was. here, he was kind of talking about how. like, hey, what you see from the Jets in. the preseason once the season starts. like it's completely different. And I'm. assuming every team is like that. But if. you know the the Jets come out and they. just read option up and down the field. with Justin Fields and Bree Hall and. Brilan Allen and throw it 10 times to. Garrett Wilson and it's just a gritty. slugfest like a 37 and a half spread.

What makes you think it's just it's a. weird line with a weird overunder, man. I don't know. That. >> is a very weird line. But I see TJ. >> looking like the condor with the option. You know, he's going to tackle both of. them. I think we're going to see a play. where TJ tackles both guys, quarterback. and running back. Although Justin Fields. incredibly difficult to tackle whenever. he's running, he is a problem. Let's. assume Mike Tomlin will have a plan for. that on the defensive side of the ball. And Arty Smith and the boys. Hopefully. they're ready to go. Pittsburgh Steelers.

minus 2 and a half across the board. Good luck to all parties over there. Miami Dolphins traveling to the lad. taking on the Indianapolis Colts as one. and a half point favorites at home. We'll be honoring Jim Ers. And by we, I. mean the Colts. We'll be doing that for. the boss. His shirt, I believe, will be. on every seat in the stadium, I think. And he's going into the Ring of Honor. There's gonna be a lot of legends. around. It's going to be great to catch. up with everybody. And uh I think it's. going to be an electrifying atmosphere. in Lucas Oil Stadium. Now, when you. think about the Dolphins, other than.

Peter Shreger, there isn't a lot of. people saying positive things, including. Dolphins fans. >> Darren Waller surprisingly out. I. thought for sure he'd be ready for week. one. Hasn't practiced, you know, thought. he'd be out there. Couldn't get this guy. to say something, you know. >> To a 4-0 week one, though. Never lost. week one. Throws for over 300 yards. >> Okay. I'm happy you started looking for. positive. >> Colts haven't won on week one since. 2019. >> Okay. >> Anytime on that team. >> No. >> Exactly. >> Definitely not. You do make a good. point. Our secondary uh not good pass.

rush. Very good. >> Give me the Colts minus one and a half. >> All right. >> Actually, uh AJ, I could get you Colts. minus a half. >> I'll take that one. Oh, >> yep. We'll take that. That's what we'll. do. >> Sounds good. >> Have that. >> We'll take We'll have that. Gumpy. obviously all over the Dolphins%. >> No, just money line. >> All right. Straight up. >> Yeah. Come on. >> All right. That's what we'll do. >> Good luck. >> Yeah, we already got that. Minus a half. Get straight up. Um, >> I'm happy everybody's on the Colts. This. is cool. >> 7% optimism.

>> Yeah, right. [ __ ] look around. A lot. of people think public's all on the. Dolphins. So that's what Hey, right. where you want to be. Bingo. Yeah. Hey, how's the public been doing lately, Pat? >> As season just started. H how how um why. bad. >> the Dolphins have more negative [ __ ]. than us, don't they? >> So much unknown. If two is healthy. though, the offense is good. Always has. >> I mean, you saw you saw the we put up. the hop meter poll. The Colts were dead. last. >> Well, how many people for that?

>> Yeah, exactly. I thought that was a. group of AR believe ours. 71% is on the fence. >> Jeez, >> that's a lot. >> Wait, you see this? >> Are much higher there. 19. >> Colts minus one and a half. I didn't. know that was going to be a [ __ ]. abnormal pick. I think I thought the. Dolphins would be a guaranteed everybody. would be riding with the horses for. sure. >> Yeah, for the boss. >> Yeah, >> these [ __ ] people don't know [ __ ]. >> That's why.

>> it's going to be a tough bar. It's going. to be a tough bar. >> Always is. >> Definitely. Don't want to be playing the. the Colts when you're. >> that guy. >> Look at that [ __ ] guy. >> Yeah, >> you can't lose on that day. Exactly. No. chance of losing. >> None of the goddamn Ring of Honor. >> Danny Dimes knows that. He knows that. >> Danny Dimes. Dimes. >> Danny Dimes is running out with one of. Jim's favorite guitars. >> Oh, sweet. Strapped to him. Ring. strapped. >> He's going to get dimes. I There was a. Jeezy song playing this morning on the. plane, Get Right by Jeezy, and I turned.

right into Dimes. Tell them get dimes and you can you can. actually carry that through the entire. song. Just want to let that know it. might be everything I think about dimes. going into the game. Would I have been. supportive of the Colts if AR was a. quarterback of this week one? Of course. >> Yeah. >> Of course I would have I would have been. a believer heart. Okay. And I assume at. some point he's going to have to play. So I'll continue to be a believer even. though everything coming out of the. building is that.

they give him every opportunity. I mean, look, Danny Dimes, we all said if Danny. Dimes wins this quarterback competition, this is now we didn't we weren't in the. say of who won the quarterback. competition. We watched zero reps other. than the highlights that were posted. online. We watched the preseason games. Danny Dimes is obviously going to be. able to do some [ __ ] He's fast. He runs. a lot. Nobody's talking about how. athletic he is at the Giants. Nobody. talked about how athletic he was in. Shane Stiken's offense now. Nobody's. talking about how athletic he is. I. think that's going to be a weapon. What's his over under rush yards? Uh,

somebody can pull that up for for Danny. Dimes. >> Yeah. Yeah. Not high enough. >> That's what I'm saying. Like nobody's. really thinking about Danny Dimes. running wild out there. There's a chance. Danny Dimes runs wild. Everybody think. about him. >> Exactly. Danny Dimes, you think about. him running and tripping over a yard. line. What was like the 20 yardd line or. something? >> Yeah. Get the Eagles. >> Yes. >> And that's all anybody thinks is like, "Oh, this guy." Yeah. Right. You hammer. the Danny Dimes over rush yards normally. gonna hit longest rush over Danny Dimes. gonna hit much more athletic than.

anybody gives him credit for and I think. Shane Stikin loves that. I think we're. going to see that. >> 21 and a half is his total. >> lock over all day. >> That's one run. >> 21 miles per hour they said. >> That's right. Jonathan Taylor. >> Jonathan Taylor say you know this white. guy pretty quick. >> and it's for the bust. Yeah. >> Yeah, I think so. >> Mhm. >> And it's his first start. There's been a. lot of [ __ ] being said about Danny. Dimes. A lot. A lot. A lot of that. pessimism is because Danny Dimes on the. head coaching job. It's like or the. starting quarterback job. It's like,

"All right, Danny Dimes. Let's see if he. got it. I'm excited to watch. And if. not, you know, if the Colts stink this. year, full rebuild coming. That's. exciting.". >> And if the Colts are and if the Colts. are good this year, we celebrate every. week. So, I'm I'm very pumped going into. the year. I'm like, "Here we go. Let's. do this." I think they have a team and. have paid enough people to be good. I. think we have a chance to be good. Not a. lot of people do. I think we do. Especially with the lighthouse on the. defensive side. We stacked up in the. back end. We got like actual vets paid. actual money. You know, we bring in we.

we got a team. >> The Colts got a team. Don't let that. athletic article kind of fool you. We. got a squad. Now, are they worth a [ __ ]. We find out against the Miami Dolphins. on Sunday at the Loud House 1:00. Honoring Jim Mercy. Bengals Browns AFC. North battle over under 48 and a half. I. am. Uh, give me the Browns. Give me the. Browns. Uh, Miles. >> Miles Garrett's playing Miles Garrett's. playing football for them. >> Yep. >> Right. >> Yes. And you could get the Browns at the. five and a half. And if you want the. Bengals, you could get them at minus.

five. >> Okay. So, I will take uh Browns at 5 and. a half. I still think the Bengals win, but I think this is a KG affair. Uh, who. do you like? >> Uh, Zack Taylor. Historically bad to. start the season. I know they played in. the preseason, but is Trey ready? Is. Shamar Stewart ready? I like the Browns. to cover here. >> He said the Bengals, Zack Taylor, one. and 11, I think, or something like that. I forget what the number. >> first three or four weeks of the season, I believe. >> Makes sense, right? Could just because. the whole burrow thing in the Jamar. Chase thing, like they've never had a.

full team at the start of the season. >> Mhm. >> Yeah. Joe was healthy last year. I don't. want to, you know, no Jamar. >> Zack Taylor has a career record of 1 and. 11 in the first two weeks of the NFL. season. >> We knew we had it somewhere in there. Yeah, we found it. Yeah, that made us. feel good whenever we uh you know, anything that adds to what we're. thinking, we like to see. We're kind of. a part of the problem. We're not looking. for anything else. We're not looking. Jamar Chase was out last year. We don't. want to hear that. Uh you know, the the. Cincinnati Bengals feel like they can. win a Super Bowl. Joe Bro, we don't want. to hear that. We just want to hear is is.

Miles Garrett playing football on that. team? Yeah. Is Joe Flacco over there? Yeah. >> I like the Browns to keep it within. Jerry. >> Yeah. >> Our favorite player favorite player, Jerry Judy. >> Jar Ford. Ford averaging five yards per. carry. I mean Brown's got some weapons. over there now. >> Go ahead, AJ. >> Yeah, with all that being said, I'll. take the Bengals at minus five. I think. I think Joey B and the boys put up. enough points. >> I think Trey Henderson wreck shop. I. think Trey Henderson comes in. He's got. fresh legs. Here we go. Bengals. One.

and0. >> Just so you know, Pat, you were saying. you were taking the Cleveland Browns. over the Cincinnati Bengals. >> To cover, not to win. >> Yeah. Not to win. >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Keep it close. Miles. Garrett opening weekend. >> Flaco still got it. >> Yeah, there's been no uh offseason stuff. for Cleveland, too. They've just been. [ __ ] smooth. >> I'm on the Browns as well. >> I like that. I'm with both of the Hammer. >> Cowboys. That feels like a good horse to. ride, you know, out of the barn. Uh. Giants taking on the Washington.

Commanders. Now, the Giants are in a. make or break here. I think everybody. over there knows it. Uh it's Russell. Wilson's team to start the season. When. will Jackson dark it in? Will Jackson. dart it in? On the other side, they pay. Terry McLaren. They bring everybody. back. Jaylen Daniels with another year. Washington Commanders were the team of. destiny last year, we all thought, for a. franchise that has been down into dumps. and actually spilling dumps on people. that were at the stadium for a long long. time. Uh AJ, who do you like in this. one, brother?

>> This is a tough one. I think I love the. Washington Commanders and what they're. doing, but give me the New York Football. Giants uh at plus five and plus six. Definitely give them give me them at. plus six. I don't know. There's. something I'm sure it's some it might be. some preseason garbage, but there feels. to be a nice positive buzz around the. New York Giants. I think Dull, I like. what they're doing, man. I think they. keep this thing close. >> That's literally all we can go off of is. viol, right? And what Abdul Carter, >> that's what I'm going off of. I'm I'm. picturing him in camp just flying off.

that edge. Oh, yeah. Dexter Lawrence in. the middle, too. >> Sexy Dexi. >> Should have a better back end, too. >> All right, I'll take the Giants plus. five and a half as well. But once again, this does not mean they're winning. >> Get six, Pat. You get six. >> Yeah, I like that. >> They've covered six of seven in. Washington as well. The Giants G. >> That's right. Always tight. >> Yeah, Bruce. >> My boy, Bruce. >> Thank you, Bruce. Good luck, Bruce. Keep. it tight. Keep it tight, Bruce. Carolina. Panthers taking on the Jacksonville. Jaguars. >> Obviously, it's a brand new era for the.

Jacksonville Jaguars. We're in the. Travis Hunter era down there. Uh O. Stoner says we're going to explore. everything that football can be with. Travis Hunter. He'll be majoring in wide. receiver, minoring in DB. How many reps. will he get on defensive side? How many. balls will he get on the offensive side? We will certainly watch. Trevor. Lawrence. This feels like a year where. he could go or we could all decide that. it didn't go well even though he's had. 45 different head coaches already in the. same amount of offensive coordinators. Carolina Panthers look great at the end. of the year. Bryce Young look like a. real deal. Now, do they have a number.

one bonafide? We're not 100% sure. How's. their offensive line? Not 100% sure. How's the defense? We assume they'll be. okay. Uh it's tough to really judge a. Carolina Panthers team because I don't. know [ __ ] about them. I know Sheena. Quick covers them. I know Bryce Young. had a big big second half of the year. last year. I know Andy Dalton's back for. his 15th year as a backup quarterback. there. Temper's a better owner now than. he was. I think we all agree. And good. vibes are down there at the end of the. season. Does that continue into this. year? We shall see. >> If there was one game that I I wouldn't.

bet, it would be this one. >> Yeah. A lot of questions. >> No clue, but I do. Give me the Panthers. plus the points. >> Okay, AJ, your thoughts. Are you going. with Gumpy just taking points in this. one that we don't really know anything. about? No, I think the Jags find a way. to win this game and I think they win by. more. Do I get it three? >> No, this one's three and a half. >> Okay, give me give me the Jags still at. minus three and a half. I I don't see I. have faith. I think Trevor Lawrence, he. knows this is the year he's going to. figure it out. >> I'll ride with Stoner and Liam Cohen. down there in D. Oh, give me the Jags. minus three and a half as well. Tampa. Bay Buccaneers taking on the Atlanta.

Falcons here in an NFC South battle. Obviously, we have BA on the program. just a few days ago. He loves the people. down in Tampa Bay. talked about the GM. and ownership as if they don't get. enough credit. Baker Mayfield, perfect. fit for this Tampa Bay Buccaneers team. It sounds like by all parties talking. about him being there for like 10 years. Like, hey, he's going to be here for the. long haul. Obviously, Mike Evans still. in the squad. Defense still going to be. able to fly around. Their favorite. taking on Rahim Morris in the Atlanta. Falcons and Michael Penn Jr. as this is. his first campaign as the bonafide.

starter for an NFL program. Kirk Cousins. will be backing him up, taking up a lot. of salary cap, but obviously good vibes. AJ, how do you feel about this. particular NFC South battle down there. in Atlanta? >> So, I I I do like Rahim down there in. Atlanta. I like what he's doing. I think. they're going to be much better, but I'm. taking Tampa Bay right here. Tampa Bay. minus one and a half on the road. I just. I have too much belief in Baker and what. he does and his moxy and his competitive. spirit. Honestly, I I am biased towards. Baker. I love him as a player. I got the.

Bucks making it to the Super Bowl. Give. me the Buccaneers minus one and a half. >> That's a big prediction. Where were you. at on Peter Strager super duper? >> I like I love this Bucks team, man. They're loaded with weapons. >> All right, I'll take the Bucks as well. I mean, Jesus, going to the Super Bowl. I love that. Congrats to Tampa. Great. city. Great city. >> It's not that tough of a division. >> NFC South, >> I mean, this these are the two teams. >> No, Kell Moore's down there doing it. He's got the whistle. >> Yeah, they might win a game. >> Whoa. >> Whoa. Arizona Cardinals.

>> Maybe this one. >> New Orleans Saints Cardinals obviously. Kyler just yesterday said that he and. Marvin Harrison Jr. are at a very. different place now than they were. whenever he first got drafted. I believe. Kyler Murray said it's night and day. from where we were to where we are. That's great news obviously for the. Arizona Cardinals. Remember the. Cardinals team played a lot of close. games last year. the head coach of that. team. Coach. >> Ganon, >> Ganon, Ganon, Ganon, >> Ganon, Ganon, Ganon, >> shots, explosives.

>> It was hard to take him serious there. for a while, but last year it feels like. he earned our respect. I think we all. ended up talking about the Arizona. Cardinals in a very positive fashion. At. the beginning of the year, Cardinals do. well and that kind of the thing. And. then. >> can they sustain? We shall see. And then. the Saints, there's nothing positive. that has come out of there. Like they. got Cam still on that defense. They got. I think. >> Demario still on that defense down. there. >> They got. >> they got some real dogs down there still.

on the defensive side, but nobody's even. giving them anything. Only getting six. and a half is a weird thing to say, but. it's real with this New Orleans Saints. team and the vibes coming out of their. camp. Uh, anything we need to know about. this toxic table, please? >> I don't know really. I mean, I think all. eyes are on Chris Olive. Hopefully he. doesn't get any hospital balls this. year. People are very worried uh about. his concussion situation the past couple. of years. Um Rattler's going. >> I was going to say I I I don't think. it's going to be a quick hook, but we're. probably going to play the if Rattler. looks like [ __ ] the first several weeks.

like hey when are we going to see Tyler. Shuck? I know it'll happen week one but. you never know. >> Okay, so on that note, give me the. Cardinals minus 6 and a half in a very. very very difficult environment. I mean. down in New Orleans is always going to. be tough. AJ, who do you like. >> after all the back and forth? Honestly, give me the Saints. Tony, you said I get. him at plus seven, right? >> No, I did not. >> Okay, I'll take him at plus 6 and a half. then, I guess. But I want the Saints, honestly. Let's see what Spencer Rattler. can do. >> Your guy Pete Warner. >> Yeah, Pete Warner. He's going to be. hustling sideline to sideline. We know. that. >> I think they find a way to keep this.

thing close. >> I think Stzman's uh playing lineback for. them boys, too, if I remember correctly. >> Man, here we go. We are downhill, boys. We are going downhill. >> I to be honest, it's just strictly. because I hope that it's Kyler's here. Like I hope Kyler becomes a guy like you. know not that he. >> Yeah. >> talked about. Yeah. He is very fun to. watch and it's like Marvin Harrison Jr. we assume going to be a very good wide. receiver in the league. So hopefully. this is the year where they go. That's. the only reason why I'm picking them. here is because of hope. Ner's Seahawks.

It's Christian McCaffrey. Can Can we. FaceTime Sheffy, please? >> Can we FaceTime Sheffy? Just get a. little scary. Did it come out? Did it. just happen? I'm hoping it's like like a one of those. throwback jokes, you know? >> Oh, I don't think they I don't think it. works. >> It's not April. It's not April. >> Now, I don't know how he knows this, but. I saw a tweet from uh Dr. David Chow. today that said this um is not related. to the Achilles tendonitis and it's just. a calf thing. So hopefully, you know, hopefully he's right.

>> Well, he was doing B skips. Um did you. see those when he was warming up doing B. skips? >> Yeah, we have those. I think. >> those A skips you see cuz your leg's. going up like this creating an A. And. then the B skip is when you whip it. around, you know, whenever you whip when. you whip that thing around. This is a. track exercise. I got it. Ain't that. right, AJ? >> You're nailing those cowboy boots. Can. Gump Gump probably can't do that or not. >> A skip, you know, classic little. hesitation. >> Just to look sweet. Yeah. >> B skip. You go home and then you're.

pulling that [ __ ] Yeah. Bang bang bang. He's pulling that [ __ ] That's like a. track warm-up for the Hammies, I do. believe. If I'm not mistaken, him being. able to do that, I think, is a good. thing. But it even being reported is. crazy. Especially post fantasy post. fantasy football drafts like they did. exactly last year. Like this just this. all feels like Joining us now, senior. NFL insider at ESPN. Ladies and. gentlemen, >> we're in tornado alley. >> We're in tornado alley.

>> We're in tornado alley. >> Hold it. more like noise. >> Michigan man, senior NFL insider for. ESPN. Ladies and gentlemen, Am. >> Jacksonville Jaguars tarp there. We both. picked him uh picked them against the. spread here this week. So hopefully Liam. Cohen is able to figure it out. Hey, this Christian McAffrey thing once. again, this is all post fantasy football. drafts. His name pops up on injury.

report. calf. Obviously very scary for I. assume a lot of Niners fans and also us. because what happened last year with his. lower leg. How do we feel about this and. what happened here? Well, I'll tell you what I know. Obviously, there's a lot that's unknown. right now and there'll be more that's. known in the next 24 to 48 hours. But. here's where we are right now. Christian. McCaffrey was a full participant in. practice Wednesday. He was limited on. Thursday, added to the injury report.

with what the team called a calf injury. Now, ordinarily you hear calf, limited. practice with most players, you find it. interesting with Christian McCaffrey, it. almost becomes earthshattering because. of everything that he went through last. year and everybody remembers the. experience where he's made inactive. So, as somebody was saying to me, like I. said to somebody, somebody somebody that. rosters him on their team like, "Are you. nervous?" I'm like, "Anytime I hear. Christian McCaffrey and Calf, yes, I.

think there's reason to be alarmed." On. the other hand, I was told this morning. that he doesn't sound Christian McAffrey. doesn't sound overly concerned. I was. told that he felt like it was some. cramps yesterday in the calf. There's. still no clar There's still no. clarification about what's real and. what's not. I'm not sure what's real. Like I've heard, with all due respect, I've heard Christian McCaffrey downplay. things before and then they weren't what. we thought. So.

>> I think I think with this situation. right now, it's wait and see. I think. there is concern just because it's his. calf. If it was Christian McCaffrey. shoulder, I gotta be honest with you. Christian McCaffrey anything, I'm I'm. I'm a little alarmed. Yeah. With what. he's been through in recent years. But. if it was another body part, I might be. a little less alarmed. But I see calf. and you can't help but wonder what's. going on. Now, Thursday is supposed to.

be the day that he talks to the media at. his locker. The media came in after. practice. Christian McAffrey was not at. his locker and did not conduct his. normal press Thursday session. >> Oh boy. >> No show. >> We're going this way. We're going this. way. We're going this way. >> So So again, I'm just giving you what I. know, which is hardly everything. I. think it's a big question and we're. going to see what is real with that. calf. Now, I'll say this. >> Uhhuh. >> If it's nothing like he initially thinks.

and like I was told, that'd be great. and he plays and he's going to be a huge. factor. But if for some reason he's. questionable Sunday, he doesn't go, it's. the calf, I think that I think we've got. an issue. Like it's it's it's something. >> It's something already. >> Okay. Yeah. >> That's how I feel. That's how I feel. Even if it's minor now. >> Yeah. They Door Dash a lot of panic to. me uh whenever he showed up on that IR, especially after what happened last. year. Um Chefy, we appreciate you taking.

time to give us the information. How do. you feel about tomorrow? >> I think that Chiron Moore played guard. at Oklahoma. and I think Chiron Moore is going to. want to run the football the way he did. when he played guard at Oklahoma. I know. we got a lot of talk about the. quarterbacks, but I think Michigan's. going to be Michigan and it's going to. be some oldfashioned running there. >> I love that. Thank you, Sheffer, for. taking time. You're the man, ladies and. gentlemen. Madam Chef, [Applause]. buddy, dude, he everything was like if.

it's a calf, it's an interesting thing, you know, so certainly you got to look. into it. People around Christian say. he's not worried about it. Now he's been. publicly not worried about it before and. it's been very bad. And then there's a. chance though this is nothing and he. plays this weekend and then there's a. chance he doesn't play that we I mean. that was what Shfter just did. Yeah. I. was like, I got nothing for you, but let. me take you on a couple [ __ ] rides. here. Couple whoopy whoops. Yeah, he's. he's downplaying it. He doesn't think. it's that big of a deal. He's done that.

before, though, and it's been terrible. >> Uh there's a chance he plays and. everything's okay. There's a chance he. doesn't play. It was like that was. really well done by Sher, but I think. he's probably still in the gathering of. information process with that. That's a. huge piece of information. He was the. one that broke the Achilles last year, right? Tenitis. Yeah, >> it was almost like either when he was on. the show or right before he came on the. show, that was devastating. Let's hope. CMC is good. But that being said, he's. playing and they're covering. I like the. San Francisco 49ers in Seattle and I.

think this is the year the Niners are. back. Even though I can't wait to see. the Seahawks team year two under. MDonald. Go ahead, AJ. >> I'm going to have to deal with the uh. the Niners as well, whether Christian. plays or not. It definitely worries me. if if it was nothing, he would have. finished practice. I mean, it could. obviously he could be just, hey, this. let's make sure we're going to be overly. cautious, whatever. But I will take the. Niners here and I man, I hope to see. Christian McCaffrey out there in. warm-ups and full pads and and playing. this game and finishing everything cuz. uh yeah, the NFL needs that guy for. sure. >> Cramps can feel like a pool,

>> you know. >> Yeah, like a cramp can feel like a pool, you know, like when I uh pulled like my. quad or something like that, it did at. the beginning feel like, oh, there's a. little bit of a cramp feel there. And. then it just continues. Hamstring, same. thing. When you pull your hammy is like. a little bit of a cramping feel and then. it's like, "Oh, no. That's not a cramp. You actually tore your shit." Now, that's why everything that Chefer told. us like just. >> sniff. >> It felt like a cramp. It felt like a. cramp. Well, it doesn't what it feels. like and what it is could be two very.

different things. It felt like a horse. kicked me in the back of my heel. Oh, your Achilles. Yeah. So, like things. feeling like things and what they are. We need more clarity. Well, unfortunately, you know, even if he does. play, it seems like we're kind of back. in the situation when he was in Carolina. where every time he touches the ball. this season, like you're going to hold. your breath and being like, "Oh, Jesus. Christ. I hope he didn't tweak his hammy. or tweak his c it seems like that is the. road we're going down where when he was. healthy in San Francisco, like it wasn't. a concern. He was just going out there.

and scoring touchdowns all the time.". But I I think we're past that point. It's just like Tyrese kind of during the. playoffs like once once he hurt his. calf. It was just one of those things. you're just you're not like waiting on. it but you are very closely watching the. extension. And. >> that changed how we view all of these. calf and Christian McCaffrey and all. that. I think Tyrese situation in the. NBA guys that's changed how we view. >> when they sit these guys down. Okay, good. Don't don't kill us. Yeah. >> Did we know more than most people with. that uh calf thing with Tyrese there for.

like four days, right? >> Definitely. >> Yeah. Yeah. A lot. >> We had a little We were just waiting. like Shams, what do you know is what we. were saying. Just like what all has been. reported, you know, like that is cuz we. kind of knew we had a little something. cuz the game before there was a fall was. awkward and it looked weird and we go, "Yo, you all right?" He's like, "Ah, I. felt a little something." It's like, "Well, that's not good. You feel a. little something? We're in the [ __ ]. finals. That's odd." And then the way it. plays out there, I can't help. I'm still. heartbroken for S game seven. He was.

going to have 50 points. >> He's hooping early. Never hoops like. that. >> Ever. Never that aggressive. Never that. Ah, it's all right. He'll come back and. do it again. Love you, Ty. >> Hell yeah. >> Good luck to your Iowa State team, Ty. >> [ __ ] him. [ __ ] him. >> Who's favorite? >> Love you though, Tyrese. Uh Iowa State. is it's like one. >> Roco Beck can spin that looked real. good. >> They had looked very good. Very. physical. >> Yeah. Especially he was in Ireland. I. was up at 2:30 a.m. when I was in.

Australia and I'm like, "Holy [ __ ]. Rocco Beck. This guy could spit it.". >> Yeah. >> And then I forgot his dad Anthony Beck. won in W Sports Hall of Fame last year. Okay. When he did it, he waited until. Iowa State came to town. And guess what. Roco Obeck did on Hall of Fame night for. his dad? Rocco Beck [ __ ] That kid's a. player. He's a real deal. >> Nobody. That's just like Carson Beck. Carson Beck getting you in and out of. the huddle. Like just executing a play. for maybe the first five, six weeks of.

college ball. Very important. Like just. getting [ __ ] like looking like uh an. operation. Carson Beck being able to do. it with Miami. Big deal. Roco Beck when. I'm watching that thing in Ireland when. I'm in Australia 230. I'm like, how did. we how did I not think of Rocco Beck. being one of these guys? He's been a. quarterback for 45 years. >> He's been a quarterback. He's been a vet. in the game basically there. I'm worried. about Iowa, brother. I I I don't love. it. And Granowski, I like that he came. out and said there was little early.

jitters. There's a little early I like. that he said that. Now, I don't like. knowing that, but I like that he said. it. You know what I mean, Ty? >> Yeah. I mean, we'll we'll see. This game. I it means a lot more for Iowa this year. than it does Iowa State because I think. Iowa State has a legitimate shot to win. the Big 12. Iowa's probably, you know, they're not going to win the Big 10. So, it's like if they win this game, they. could still be one of those darkhorse. teams that maybe slips into the, you. know, 11 or a 12 seed in the playoffs. But, uh, I told you this earlier in the. week, Pat, like I think, I mean, Iowa. State won 11 games last year. I think.

this year's, like, this is the best Iowa. State team Matt Campbell has ever had, and it's a name. So, we'll see, though. You know, that's why that's why you. [ __ ] that's why you play the game. >> That is why you play the game. Uh, if. Kirk wins, he becomes the all-time. winningest Big 10 coach, right? >> Yeah. Which is pretty remarkable. >> I think there's going to be a lot of. legends on that sideline from what I've. been told. Lot of legends coming back. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think it's going to. be pretty awesome over the time. >> I don't doubt it. Yeah, I'm very excited. to watch that one. Very excited. >> All right, let's get to the next game. You picked the Niners. I picked the.

Niners. Let's go to the Tennessee Titans. and the Denver Broncos favored by eight. and a half. Biggest spread of the. weekend. Uh, Gumpch, how do you feel. about this game? I'm excited to watch. Cam Ward. I know uh number one rookie. quarterbacks don't farewell in their. start, first start, but I think they. cover the points here. >> AJ, who do you like? >> You got I got to take the Broncos, man. Eight and a half is is a ton of points, but everyone's everyone's, you know, pumping the tires of the Denver Broncos. and I believe in their defense and I. believe in Bo Knicks and Shawn Peyton. So, give the Broncos. >> If you're taking the Broncos, you can.

get eight. >> Give me eight. Broncos and eight, maybe. seven even. >> Well, I don't think that's okay. If. we're going to do the best number every. single time, >> I don't know if Tone's giving me three. of them where I got to take off a half. of them. >> No, he's not. He's just telling you when. you got the full number. >> I'm giving you I'm giving you the best. option right now. >> Okay, good. I'm coachable. I will not do. it anymore. >> Thank you. You were told that already a. couple times. >> You sack of bones. >> I I enjoyed. >> Good to have you back alive, Conor. I'm. glad you didn't kill yourself. >> No. >> Yeah, me too. >> It was touch and go for a while. I.

watched you almost walked right into. that brick wall. Your head almost hit. that brick wall. >> Hell yeah. Uh, >> hell yeah. I'm about 10. >> Ryan. Ryan. Um, I'll go with the Broncos. as well. Minus eight. Uh, I like Cam. Ward. I like him a lot. I have no idea. what their team looks like. So, just. give me the Broncos. I like the Broncos. Good vibes out of Broncos. >> Bick's probably going to be even better. I would assume much better because his. work ethic, everything. Everybody talks. about him. Just like Jaylen Herz. >> Vance. >> More.

>> Yeah. Vance with that defense. >> I mean, just I like the Broncos there. I. I don't know if it we should with as. many points as that is. Obviously, that's a lot of points for week one in. the NFL, but I'll take it. Uh Lions, Packers, >> Packers favored by one and a half at. home in Lambo with the debut of the. number one that Curly Lambo wore. Micah. Parsons in front of the cheese heads. over there in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Who. are the Detroit Lions? Oh, they were. just the number one seed in the NFC last.

year. >> What? >> They lose all their coordinators though. Nobody knows what's going on anymore. >> Not making the playoffs. >> They got lucky last year. Yeah. Peter. Shrager, man who we respect. >> Mhm. >> Yeah. >> And like, >> "Love you, Shreger. Love you, Shakes.". >> Says, "Don't Troy Lions not even making. the playoffs." Now, at that moment, we. thought he was stupid. Doesn't mean we. don't still respect and appreciate it. And that is certain that is certainly. something. MCDC is the culture there in.

my eyes. So the way he has talked about. having to change over coordinators and. obviously every team hopes to be. successful enough that every other team. wants their coordinators. So this is. something that MCDC is certainly. prepared for or wished for with his. program, but he has said if I'm doing. this right, you can take me out of here, man, and they'll just continue to. operate. So I think the way he's viewing. it is like, okay, how you doing? They're. underdogs to start the season. Fox, anything I need to know about this Lions. team? >> No. Amen to every single word you just. said? I'll give you guys one stat. Jared.

Goff in week one in his career 8-0. against the spread. I personally feel. like this is kind of a TCU North. Carolina situation. We're we're TCU. No. one's talking about us. Everyone's. talking about Green Bay. They got a new. toy. Everyone's excited about them in. the NFC North. So, I think Dan. Campbell's going to take a little bit of. motivation from that. And I really like. what we can do in Lambo this weekend. >> I'll tell you what, man. Sunny Dyes had. those guys ready to go, man.

[ __ ] had them, man. Uh, I like the. Lions plus one and a half. >> You can get them at plus two and a half. >> Boom. Jeez. >> Perfect. I'll do that. Give me the Lions. at plus. >> I don't know. Just a book is offering. plus two and a half. I don't tell you. >> It did. It did move a point since the. trade. >> Okay. >> Yeah. [ __ ] super boost probably if I. had to guess. >> Sounds like a super boost. >> Ty. Um, Green Bay Packers owner at. Lambo. Micah's debut. A strip, sack, scoop, score would be outrageous and.

certainly possible. Uh Jared Goff gets. the ball out quick. They run a lot of. quick throws. At least with Ben Johnson, they did that. >> Do you have any worries about what the. Lions are going to look like? Do you. think you're not going to know who they. are? Do you think Leaf Flores is going. to have some questions? >> Uh no, I don't think so. I mean, I I. agree with Foxy. I don't love going into. this game that people are acting like. the Lions didn't win 15 games last year. and that they [ __ ] stink because. they, you know, had have had their way. with the Packers really in the Dan. Campbell era for the most part. Uh, I. think they're a little bit more talented.

than Bill Belch's North Carolina team. So, I don't know if we're going to get. like a 45 16 type deal, but I mean. Jordan Love already said it. Hey, I can. see it right now. You know, defense gets. announced first. Mike is the f the last. guy out. the Lambo goes [ __ ] crazy. Um I I think there's a good chance. that's going to happen. Um I I like the. Packers. I really do. Again, everyone's. kind of been gassing them up saying, "Hey, Jordan Love, MVP. Packers might go. to the Super Bowl, but I really do think. it's time." And I think Josh Jacobs, he.

played very well against the Lions both. times last year. I don't think Love. needs to go out there and throw for 350. uh for the, you know, the Packers to. win, but I do think they get it done at. home. They need to. AJ, did you hear. Micah said he hates Detroit? >> I did. Yeah, I did. And he also said he. loves a profit, too, after Jordan Love, you know, kind of said exactly what. should happen and what is most likely. going to happen on Sunday. Give me the. Packers at whatever line Tone wants to. give me. Whatever. >> One and a half. >> Okay, I get it. One and a half. All. right. >> Yeah. >> Tone's not giving us,

>> but you got you're minus two and a half. obviously. >> No, plus the line. >> So, the way it works in gambling is the. favorite is minus. >> Yes. >> And the underdog is plus. >> You guys been telling me this for like 5. years. I know. >> Yeah. So what so. >> I'm saying what do I get it at if. >> Packers are the best number you can get. the Packers at is -. >> is the lowest minus number and the best. number for the other team is the highest. plus number which is plus two and a. half. >> So that's why he has plus. >> I'm taking minus one and a half green. >> Okay. >> Yeah, exactly. Nailed it. And shout out. to shout out to like you think Tone's. writing these down like it's deal or no.

deal. >> GP Tone Purdue. >> He's surfing the web getting the best. lines. >> Yeah. Tone, can you give me this? Like. you're negotiating. What numbers do you. give me on this one, Tony? >> Try it. >> What did you say? Defensive TUD. >> I think a defensive TUD in this game for. sure. Don't know what team, but I think. there will be one. >> What are the odds on that? Just any. >> probably probably 300. >> Should be all right. >> Grant gets loose too, man. Lion. secondary has a lot of takeaways.

>> Love Packers last year. >> Yeah, >> Packers secondary. The NFL a defense to. score uh was plus 700. Whoop. >> There it is. That's a winner. >> That's a big one. Gum. Let's go. Texans. Los Angeles Rams. Texans had a down year. last year. A lot of injuries. CJ Strad. rolling back into this year with a lot. of people thinking he's going to be back. at his best form like he was his rookie. year. Los Angeles Rams have Matthew. Stafford back. He was in the back of a. trailer for a little bit. People were. wondering what the hell was wrong with. him. Well, he's got Devonte Adams now, a.

wide receiver. Puka is there. They got a. run game that's insane. And Shawn McVey. is still a super genius. They almost. knocked off the Philadelphia Eagles last. year during that Philadelphia Eagles. dominant run. They were the closest. Came down to final possession. They were. on the 15, I think, or maybe the 10 uh. to go in and score. And then Jaylen. Carter said, "Game over." And he decided. not to spit on anybody. So, he actually. got to play in the next game, which is a. great thing for all parties. I like the. Los Angeles Rams. I also like the. Houston Texans. Give me the Houston. Texans plus three and a half or whatever.

is the biggest line that I can get. >> Three and a half is the biggest. Okay, Gumpy, how do you feel about that? >> I'm worried about the Texans O line. straightaway. Tonsil, there's a lot of. unknowns there. I like the Rams covering. the three and a half here. >> Rams there and who Rams you can get. Rams, you could get at three. >> Thank you. I'll take the three. >> Whose house? Rams house. >> All right, give me the Texans here. Give. me the Texans. So, I get I get the. Texans at plus three and a half. >> Yes, you do. >> I don't love how good the the Rams Dline.

is and how they can get pressure. I do. not feel great about that. But I think I. assume that the uh the Houston Texans. feel like, hey, no one's giving us a. chance. No one's talking about us. Like. our back's against the wall. We need to. remind people who we are. >> I forgot about that Dline. Give me the. Rams. Actually, minus three. >> You had them first. I think I think you. had the Rams. >> No, I. Okay. >> Yeah, I'll take the Rams minus three. The biggest issue last year was CJ Stout. had no time, right? >> No line. at they no Joe Mixon Chub I.

think is going to be their starter and. then uh no Christian Kirk Jaden Higgins. rookie will start. >> it on me now. >> at the on the other side. >> Oh yeah, >> I'll stay with the Texans. Give me the. Texans. >> good. I like that. >> I will take the Rams minus three even. though love the Texans. Um Sunday Night. Football. >> Here we go. MVP verse MVP. team that. needs Super Bowl verse team that needs. Super Bowl. Team that can win Super Bowl. verse team that can win the Super Bowl.

Both teams representing the AFC of the. East. It's the Buffalo Bills playing. host to the AFC Norse Baltimore Ravens. Now Dan Olowski said Lamar Jackson's got. more pressure to win a Super Bowl than. Josh Allen. How many Super Bowls has. Josh Allen won, Gumpy? >> Zero. >> Josh Allen feels the pressure of having. to win a Super Bowl as well. Both these. guys understand their legacy is that. they are great quarterbacks. Will they. be immortal? Will they win Super Bowls? That is the only thing they're hunting. The Buffalo Bills went all in this off. seasonason. Brandon Bean was actually.

looking for money in the cushions of. cotches so he could pay for more players. to come up there to Buffalo. They got an. OG back in Jordan Puyer on the defensive. side. They maybe have the best left. tackle in football who likes to drift. the [ __ ] out of cars. And Josh Allen is. the prototype of what everybody's. looking for now. Lamar Jackson, impossible to find. Unicorn, one of one. I was watching his Louisville highlights. just the other day. Holy. >> [ __ ] dog. >> I I couldn't even fathom trying to. prepare for him. I wish I was on a show.

like College Game Day whenever he was in. college. Holy [ __ ] I would have been. losing my mind every single weekend. And. then remember he was told he's going to. be a wide receiver. Him and his mom hung. in the pocket. Now what does he become? Oh, the guy with the highest passer. rating in the NFL and also the most rush. yards at the quarterback position. And. he's the most explosive player on the. field whenever he's on the field. He's. primed and ready to go with an absolute. workhorse in Derrick Henry who's still. in his prime. And KVN and the boys on. the defensive side alongside Kyle. Hamilton got Chucky Pagano delivering. donuts. >> Hell yeah.

>> On Saturdays before a walkth through. >> Yes, she does. >> I love that this is Sunday Night. Football week 1. I am thankful that this. is Sunday Night Football week 1. And uh. AJ, I can't wait for you to pick this. game first and tell me why. >> I will gladly pick this game first. So, I'm I am biased because I saw about 20. minutes of a Hard Knocks episode a. couple days ago on the Buffalo Bills and. watching those guys interact and making. pizzas. What is it Conor McGovern their. center? Watching him make pizzas with. the O line and hearing them congregate.

and their fellowship together and. watching how these dudes love each. other. Give me the Buffalo Bills here. What's my line? My best one. Plus one. and a half. Here we go. >> I will say Hard Knocks makes you fall in. love with everybody. The Buffalo Bills. are certainly another example of that. I. love that team. I love that city. I love. that community. I like how nice they are. to us. Baltimore Ravens, not really. >> Yeah. Not at all. You know, >> at like kind of not. >> kind of hate the Ravens now we're. talking about it actually.

>> No, I love the Ravens. I love the Ravens. just strictly because how fun Lamar is. to watch and their defense. Growing up. in Pittsburgh, you understand the. respect everybody has for Baltimore and. their defense. And it's like that has. continued. Uh I got massive respect for. the Baltimore. Who do you like? >> Is there a reason why the line flipped. Tone? It was plus one and a half Ravens. yesterday. >> I do not know. >> All right. I still like the Ravens to. win it. >> You could get them at minus one. The. Ravens. >> There it is. >> I'll take the Ravens as well. >> I'll take the Ravens as well. >> What a game. It's not a game. I love.

>> Chuck Pagano undefeated after returning. back to the NFL. >> True story. >> You go Chuck. >> That's what it's going to say. That's. what we're going to say Monday morning. We're gonna say this guy's off to a hot. start. >> T is gonna be eating his ass so hard. Jesus. >> And if they don't win, if they don't. win, it's not a punishment. If they. don't win, >> there's no. chewing his ass if they don't win.

>> I don't think I think there's no. waffling happening with Trump. All. right, you guys have a fantastic. weekend. I'll see you guys on Monday. Tomorrow, college game day is going to. be electric. It's right in the middle of. campus. >> I mean, it's literally right in the. middle of campus. >> It's an interesting setup here. This. one's different than everywhere. We are. literally right in the middle of campus. There's two. >> sidewalks and we're right in the middle. quad. >> Mhm. >> Yeah. Is it called a quad if there's no. close if it's more of a U? Would that be.

a. >> right on a U? >> A truck. >> Do you have a quad at at uh WVU? I'm sure there's one somewhere that's on. campus. I I don't know. >> I I don't know. I assume there is one. somewhere. It was great though. It was. an honor to be there when I was there. >> Oh, yeah. >> At the quad at West Virginia. You guys. have a quad in Columbus. >> We have the Oval. It's called. >> Ah, the Oval. Yeah, sure. >> Cuz the O. >> So, it might be U. >> Yeah. >> How about this game? How about this.

game? Toxic table. Make a pick. >> Oklahoma. Oh man, >> ties on Oklahoma. Connor's on. >> I'll take Michigan plus five and a half. >> Don't have to do spread. No, just. winner. >> Oh. yeah. Oklahoma. >> Okay. Oklahoma. Uh two at the toxic. table. One half of the hammer. >> Cowboys AP Town. Who do you like? >> Uh. Michigan. >> Nice. >> That'd be a huge win for Sharon Moore.

and Bryce Underwood who just turned 18. three weeks ago. >> Yeah. That's crazy. He's this tall. He's. >> That block he laid was awesome. I just. saw that last night. That was sick. >> Insane. Gumpy. >> Michigan for sure. >> Jesus Christ. >> They're good, man. They just needed a. quarterback. A completely different team. with him. >> AJ, you're never going to pick the team. up north, huh? >> I think Michigan's really good. I do. But I think Oklahoma wins this one. >> Yeah. Red team, you know, not Michigan. >> I like Venables, too. I'm biased towards.

Venables. Why? I love his his energy. I. love his pizzazz. >> If Venable Bulls doesn't shut down a. 18-year-old on the road at home in his. first real start cuz New Mexico just. started their football team last year, I. think. Uh I don't know. >> Then then there's a chance. on me. That's on me. First game I've. ever seen. Then there's a chance. Underwood might be the greatest. quarterback that college football has. ever seen if he does that. >> I might have talked to a coach from.

Michigan last night. >> Okay. And uh what was being said about Bryce. Underwood was like, "Hey, here. elite, like super mature, super super. he's getting paid more money than. anybody in the history of college ball. and he's probably been recruited since. he's what 13 years old.". >> Mhm. For sure. >> So like I guess mentally like he's even. more impressive somehow than his. physical stature and what he's able to. do there. And they're like, when he. showed up at 17, it was like everybody.

was just wildly confused that humans. could be like this, you know? Like they. had no idea. The ball comes out real. clean. I mean, real clean throw. And. then in between the ears, I guess he's. like poised, confident, comfortable, approachable, but also like knows what's. going on in the other side. They're. like, "This is the one. This is Neo here. is what they're saying about him." Hey, so if he's able to make a venables. defense at home here in Norman, which. should be insane, if he's able to have. success against them, obviously we're.

going straight into Heisman. conversations for this Bryce Underwood. kid as an 18-year-old. And it's like, let's go. And then on the other side, Matar, >> he might do the same [ __ ]. >> He's getting a huge game here, fresh off. a massive one last week. It's like I I. like these early weeks because we have. no idea who's going to show up. We have. no clue who is who, you know, and uh it. should be a blast tomorrow morning, AJ. I appreciate the hell out of you driving. over to the Thunderdome, brother. >> Oh, of course. It's awesome. Good to see. you here with the boys. Good to see you. and Gump. I mean, >> I think it's going to be I think this. game is going to be awesome. Oklahoma.

Michigan for me. What a good early match. up. We don't have a ton of other. matchups on on the slate for college. that are super high, but I like this. >> Whoa. >> I like the Illinois Duke game. No joke. Illinois is I think Illinois, very solid. >> state pretty legit this year. Texas. >> WVU against Ohio Bobcats. I'm gonna be. I'm gonna be watching that one. I. promise you. >> The border war. >> Border War. >> The border war. >> Yeah. >> Don't sleep on South Florida. Florida. No. South Florida. >> Yeah. >> Boise State. >> Florida the 17 and 12 point favorites. over USF.

>> Yeah, that that one feels like a lot of. points. Florida has um tough next seven. weeks. >> Scheduled as hell. >> Seven. I don't even know if it's six. weeks, but count this USF game as a. tough one. Like this is not this is not. a gimme here. But if you're to look at. the Florida schedule preseason looking. at it, you would think somebody hates. Billy Napier. >> It's hell. Same as it was last year. Exact same. >> Yeah, cuz midway through the year, remember Billy Napier was getting called. to get fired. And then we looked at. their schedule and it was like, buddy,

you got no cupcakes coming over five, six weeks. But then they started winning. those games and that's when it was like, wait a minute, Napier has his culture. set. Lagway might be a guy. It's like, they got it again. They got Florida. Uh. they got Miami. They got LSU. >> Texas. >> They got Texas. >> Yeah. Who's making that schedule? Why. would you tell the gauntlet? >> Texas. Yeah. Did we say Texas? I think. they got Texas. >> Don't they have another Florida? Don't. they have Florida State? >> Florida State to end the season. Yeah. >> Yeah.

>> Yeah. There it is. They got everybody. We said everybody that is difficult. Georgia as well. >> At LSU at night. >> at&m. That's going to be a [ __ ] miss. Co's got another year under his belt. down there. >> They got Georgia at home though. They're. okay. >> Yeah, it won't be. >> That won't be too bad. >> They should let Billy Nate here at the. end of the year just rank the top 10 cuz. he's played them all, you know? >> Like, hey, who who would you say is the. most difficult? Good luck down there, boys. And the Gatorade.

knows. Flagweight knows. >> will figure it out. >> And we appreciate you scheduling that to. go back to Sabin's point. We appreciate. these tough games being scheduled. because it's good for college ball as a. whole. We're lucky to be here. Let's. have the greatest weekend of all time. Football is all the way back. Be a. friend. Tell a friend something nice. Great work over there, boys. Behind the. glass. Good work all week. >> You, too, dude. You, too. >> Well done. >> Good luck tomorrow. >> Yeah. >> To the Foxy department. Uh, the graphic. boys. Way to go, boys. >> Hell yeah, boys. Good job. >> Say toxic table. You guys crushed you. Way to go. >> Thank you. You, too, brother.

>> Tone, way to go this week. Good luck. Hope the Steelers are a good team this. year, not a bad one. >> And also to you, brother. >> Swiss. >> Thank you. Happy NFL football day, AJ. You're the best. Thanks for traveling. Nobody except for you. >> Y. >> I was that was tough yesterday. I just. ducks on a pond all over the [ __ ]. place. That's how it's going to be. sometimes. You got to get above that. You got to look around sometimes and. realize like AJ Hawk would say, we are. in the good old days right now. >> Good old days. >> This is it. >> This is it.

>> We're in football season. Every team. except for Alabama has hope. That was. [ __ ] up. >> Oh, that was. >> You guys still have hope. There's a lot. of games. >> Just one game. >> I know. I know. I know. I know that you. you didn't deserve it. Roll tide. We. still got Every team still has a lot of. hope. Okay. Not Ohio University. They. had a tough one this weekend, but every. fan base has an opportunity to say we. could be champions. Let's live in this. moment because in a few weeks there's. going to be a lot of teams that are. going to say, "We're ass. We don't have. a chance. We're just going to try to. ruin somebody else's season. Ruin.

somebody else's chance of going and get. a trophy. So, at this moment, this. weekend, let's look around and say, >> "This is what we [ __ ] came here for.". Okay, >> let's enjoy it all. Be a friend. Tell a. friend something nice. We're in this. thing together. ESPN crew that set this. all up. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Great work. Incredible work.
