Welcome back to the cover three podcast with your host, Chip Patterson, Tom F...

Danny Cannell, and Bob Elliott.

It's your call for the best college football coverage from national signing day to the national

championship and everything in between CBS Sports presents the cover three podcast. Hey and welcome back to the cover three podcast here on CBS Sports, that's Tom Fernelli, that's by Elliott. I'm Chip Patterson coming to you live at youtube.com/cover three and everywhere you get your podcast on the man.

Thanks for hanging out. Smash that subscribe. Smash that like and come and join us in the chat aka the cover three tailgate where they're

trying to put one second back on the clock because you never know what could happen if you

but just one second back on the clock we're coming to you a little bit earlier than we

originally projected while also we thought we were going to be later than projected because lightning delays in Baton Rouge and that one extra second in Ann Arbor have created a chaotic evening to which we will try to navigate as yes, one of the potentially best games in the night. UCLA Cal is also wrapping up the first quarter live bullets flying gentlemen week one wouldn't

want to have it any other way this instant reaction show like all of our react instant reaction shows is brought to you by Modello and we like to thank Modello for their sponsorship of these instant reaction shows here on the cover three podcasts in our Thomas 26 season um okay we're I'm we're gonna be rocking and rolling through all of it LSU is absolutely put the Clemson Tigers in a cage early and we could have some football

sides to this I I think there's probably a larger conversation coming out of that one is that fair I mean are you are you excited to detail the ways that Clemson looks inept against LSU are you excited to detail the ways in the way you look tiny and slow and outclassed in a game that would otherwise be a measuring stick for your program I mean that's not exciting

not real I'm not there's there's better games talk about yeah that's all I'm I'm always excited to talk

about Clemson you kidding me that's what this is all man who has done that extensive late

yeah but I the reason that we are going a little bit early and the reason why we wanted to capture this moment the reason why the cover three tailgate is absolutely rocking is because we have to ask whether or not everything played out as it should have at the conclusion of what looked like it was going to be one of the worst season opening losses in Michigan football history since losing the app state in 2007 the first season opening home loss for Michigan

since Jim Harbaugh lost to Cal Whittingham in 2015 was there supposed to be one more second on the club okay I know I haven't seen this I was watching clips and you didn't watch this play I I saw it the replay the play but I haven't seen the replay of zero is on the clock zeroes look Tom was writing like there's a lot of games I got to take notes on like I I flip the game off so the way that I understand it the NBC rules analyst popped on and mentioned several times

this is our clock you know this is the way that our cameras set up and the way that they've gotten everything synced the zeros were while the ball was in the air on the NBC broadcast when the NBC rules analyst was looking at it yeah but you're not going to believe this there's a lot of Michigan fans that are going to rush to tell you way way way way way I'm in attorney and I can tell you why you know classic Michigan stuff we went through this in 2023 blockers here in dead y'all

apparently the western Michigan player touching the ball because he was out of bounds but there was here was on the clock before the ball came down and the official on the NBC even said the big ten's going to have some explaining to do after this and officials usually come to the defensive officials and he was just like no the leagues going to have some

explaining to do and it was horse crap it was terrible to I if I'm a western Michigan fan and I'm screaming that was rigged I normally tell people screaming something was rigged that they're

just you know calm down I a hundred percent believe I agree with them 95 percent of the cover three

Tailgate in hundreds and hundreds of votes have voted did western Michigan ge...

hey that's the other thing too like western Michigan dominated Michigan in this game we have Michigan did nothing to earn this win I mean they kind of played him to a draw right which is like saying something in it itself what's yeah the Michigan Wolverine's

Mr big bad cow winning it that's what I'm saying right like it's it's embarrassing to be played

evenly for 60 minutes which I've personally in this clip I think they pretty much did right you know like but to western Michigan I'm legitimately angry for western Michigan just like just in general that's that's that's terrible that was just they completely robbed a team of they win for some reason Michigan got another play they didn't deserve it they shouldn't have had it the game was over Michigan had lost they get another shot and then Michigan wins

so western Michigan goes through all that plays an incredible game defensively completely

limits what the Wolverines are doing puts themselves in a position to win the game they do everything that their coach told them that they had to do to go on the road and shock the world

to start the season a team that won its conference last year a team that had everybody come back

nobody went in the portal that's a team that won a G five league and nobody went in the portal they all came back because they wanted to do it again they wanted to try to get to the playoff and then they go on the road they beat Michigan and they get screwed over they get bent over a barrel and screwed and then they lose the game it's one of the greatest injustices I have ever seen in college football like fifth down level of like I go to go chapter will be written about

it the same way that the fifth down was yes it was a horrible horrible decision to put the close I can back on the clock it was a horrible outcome that Michigan was able to win because of it and then they're storming the field I mean that's embarrassing thank god I have this medello to help

call me down wow I mean did they give an explanation on the field for why they were putting one

second they just said there's one second on the clock they said one second left on the clock

we're going to review it there's one second left on the clock total give and then they called whoever the hell they called and that person said you better put a second back on the clock I know where your family lives and there was a second back on the clock wow tough scene for food for the for the moment the the Michigan Wolverines did not look Michigan's got to play Oklahoma next week yeah that might be tough

how many well it depends like if they get extra downs and they get extra plays and they only need five yards to get a first down instead of ten it'll be easier for them we'll have to see what officials there I don't know I don't know which officiating crew is in that game I don't know what conference they represent it I didn't I didn't really have the game the volume on for most of the game it was mostly muted whoever the hell was officiating that game better not be officiating

a game next week probably not any time soon a lot of times the road team brings the officials the Mac those mac officials look they think go to eastern or central

hold on quick uh just that broadcast show that the thing that is ultimately were big 10 officials

okay think that the thing that is ultimately so disappointing here is that football justice was not served that if you did not watch this game you see Michigan 13 to 12 you say they struggled okay that's all right they moved on they played like shit yeah oh oh night long we'll see we can first drive first drive sure but then they couldn't get out of their own way the rest of the way Bryce underwood was having problems they couldn't I heard all about this run game you know

western Michigan hadn't bothered up and then for the Michigan Wolverine's defense to be unable to get off the field for 13 minute drive when western Michigan just held the ball for three and a half it's like three and a half yards per play on a 13 minute drive they just kicked you in the shins they drank the game for 13 minutes and you couldn't get off the field well later before the end of this by the way among the many things that we are happy for

Modello their sponsorship of the incident reaction shows keeping Tom's nerves calm here as we've

Got a long lengthy and robust show to give you today it is going to be there ...

our tomorrow's top 25 today segment which will be coming up a little later now naturally as you know we're not going to get the AP top 25 tomorrow but we are going to still give you an approach and I'll tell you what boys there's a couple teams that won and are probably moving down and the Michigan Wolverines are definitely going to be one of those teams that won a football game and are going to be moving down in the college football playoff rankings because you it is fair

to question not just their top 20 bonafide but they're top 25 like their ability to be ranked

their deserveiveness to be ranked on a ballot is fair to question I think they will be ranked

I was going to be spoiler there but I do think that they are going to find their their stock hit in a major way from the football perspective Tom what are the biggest concerns other than all of it that you were playing western Michigan and it was difficult to tell the difference in which team was the big 10 team and ranked in which team was the Mac champion and that you didn't look like what you rather than Davis Warren or Bryce Underwood Michigan looked totally ordinary and I will say

like you know they're the defense cannot be blamed for this because as you meant they only gave up 3.3 yards for play yeah Michigan only had 221 yards for offense like they were on the field of time because the offense was doing nothing and you look at the situation and again trying to

eliminate the crap it's first game of the year you see these things happen you see bad performances

you see disjointed efforts particularly when it's brand new coaches or brand new coordinator so there's a new coach coming in there's a new offensive coordinator Bryce Underwood struggled last year and he was struggling again tonight so you could sit there and say okay maybe as this season goes on they'll be able to iron it out and we'll look back and be like okay that was the worst game they

played all year and things will be fine that is still very much a possibility but what I think will

be lost in the way that game ended was just how absolutely ordinary Michigan looked they looked like a 7 and 5 team they did not look like a team that will be competing at the top of the big header for play off spot to me that was my primary takeaway before all the crap at the end yeah I mean like no no explosive runs like no no I mean that one explosive pass obviously would which probably shouldn't have counted right I mean like just they were just bottled up like

they they weren't getting like tackle behind a line all the time they just that there was no like

imposing their will okay we have moved into the first level second levels picked up or out

the gate we're hitting thirty you know thirty forty are runs like I think you would expect to see I guess to Western Michigan team like that and you know like Duke Credit to Western Michigan for for playing them as well as they did but that is concerning like for sure you know for Michigan to like not create any explosives there and you like you look at their have a crate Western Michigan had a higher have a great than Michigan yeah in the big house like that that's

I mean not by a ton but by any margin is really I think like really concerning because

Oklahoma creates quite a bit of habit guys so I maybe they got some other stuff but I they better find it quick let me tell you about the beautiful poetry of Michigan football in this moment because we were we had Bryce Underwood and we were talking to him and we were trying to get him to talk about JJP Cannon and he was giggling like a gitty little school boy about JJP Cannon but not telling us anything like Kyle Whittingham and scared him into saying don't tell

these boys anything you know like like yeah yeah don't talk about it but yeah he's gonna be good yeah

he's gonna be good very first offense of play from scrimmage bumbled snap by Bryce Underwood

he's running for his life oh my gosh here's a shovel pass of a pass forward and what is it a one handed grab by JJP Cannon as he's falling to the ground how does this game end a play that shouldn't have happened a heave that might be short and who ends up saving the day who ended up pulling that down JJ yeah 41 inch vert on that guy like he's he's a free I it was it game started game stopped with bungled plays that weren't supposed to happen

JJP Cannon saved Michigan's ass so oh no no no no no the big tent officials or excuse me not the big tent officials you know we we'll check this obviously with our uh with our stats and research the alleged big tent officials the officials of the game in Ann Arbor on September the 5th who decided to review and and the and apparently apparently apparently have their own little stop

Clock that said we need a we need an injury time extra second added on to the...

it was you know world cup fever right there's a cooling break there's a cool ah he forgot about the cooling break um Penn State's got to be worried now like they they didn't Michigan to be like

a resume like a bullet point and a resume guys oh that's that's concerning I think a Penn State

fans have in way too much fun about that yeah a real Penn State fan ain't thinking like that they're like you know like just and that keeps going on and on and on that's just striker it was like a really bad kind of fun yeah but because that's the thing is like as um as things you know as Penn State just handles business properly there were a lot of teams that didn't is true as a as a pit so up in your in the tailgate right now go ahead and drop your

prediction for Oklahoma Michigan probably be like 10 to 7 Oklahoma games in Ann Arbor yeah oh we're filling up we're filling up the chat with zero zero that's gonna be our new protest how do we feel the chat with likes like video that's also that's also uh advantageous hey so anything else on Michigan Michigan Western Michigan I mean Western played well like they played like I did watch this whole game except for when the clock is zero I turned it off I didn't realize

and then I kind of concerned about the line of scrimmage for Michigan like not dominating there is is concerning like some of the past game rhythm stuff I think you could probably anticipate I I think they will look better for sure but I mean they should lost this thing like they didn't really play well enough to win and that's not what like it's Western you're not alone but I find a mine who's a Michigan fan who went down window and by the way there's an Illinois degree

you're a Michigan fan yeah my my college roommate yeah not to out him I don't think he

make it look up those records he turned the television off and discussed after the first play

just because he was pissed he's turned it off and you know left the room and then like I texted him I said that he used you to see that and he's like what yeah we lost I was like oh my god just he knows he knows he knows he did not know wow yeah um quite an experience uh the the pain will will remain uh only temporary we'll see what happens next week when Oklahoma comes to town uh the suitors I'm guessing are not going to get 18 minutes of breakdown

they did the thing that you are supposed to do as a heavy favorite week one as a top team

and put put him in a damn body bag that's that's what happened um you know we'll we'll see what

happens keep filling up the tailgate with your predictions for what might be coming as the sooner's come to town coming up on the other side another big 10 team one after a scare and now we've got a question if our preseason expectations were a little bit off what to make out of organs close call with Boise and more next back here on the cover three podcast where we had a uh yeah an interesting game taking place in Eugene because Boise State brought the fight

to the ducks um a game where first and foremost organ got the win okay and it was not

aided by one extra second it was a fair win I thought Dante more stepped up when his team asked him to well buddy if we were talking about organ like one of the best teams in the country we've got some nits to pick got my laundry list I'm sure you all have yours time for Nelly where would you like to start start with the positive Dan you looked fantastic you had a look great sunglasses were just money I thought you looked wonderful in all the interviews with

Jenny after that your your team did not look nearly as good for the most part I I was very I mean I I think they were able to paper over it like I had to write the a gamer after this one

and the best way I could think of to describe how the game went to was the talent in the skill

were able to help Oregon overcome their actual play like there were moments of greatness that you saw that we're able to help them put points for like the decorian more touched out at the end

where you basically shoot those dudes off the face of the earth and scored like Boise didn't

have a guy who could do that during Davis and had the long 40 yard run if you take that away the only average like 3.3 yards per carry in the game so they were able to hit explosives and get

Points on the board and defensively they did a good enough job of you know ho...

feel goals and not letting them get touched out which really gave them the shot to win the game

but just overall like I thought the offensive line there were questions obviously with the three new

starters early in the game I thought they were struggling they they got better as the game went along but they weren't really dominating now we could find out as the season goes along Boise state might just have a very good defensive line that could really help them in the packed hole similar to what we saw with an emphasis due in the lead like last week so who knows maybe that's a possibility on the other side the defensive line we've hyped it up is maybe the best in the

country it didn't look like it today like they they they got three sacks and they had five tackles for loss but they really did not generate a real pass rush until the fourth quarter when Boise state they knew Boise had to drop back and pass they were able to just you know pin the years back

and go that was really when you first started seeing them win consistent before that they weren't

and then on the other end like in the run game Boise had no long runs they're longest run of the game was nine yards but they weren't really losing yards either the offensive line was getting pushed they were getting like three four yards a pop which was allowing them to stay on schedule and allowing them to move the chains on a lot of longer drives so like Oregon overall over sixty minutes they proved that they were more talented they proved that they were more

skilled and they ended up winning the game but I just don't feel like they really played well in any facet outside of a play here and I also think Dante Moore looked pretty shaky at times like there was the one missed touchdown he had up the seam and then they went to the trick play with

the Evan Stewart I think who was through it or was it too I can't remember but that was dropped

like they had missed opportunities that they could have used to put that game away early and they just didn't and then also got to mention to you offensive coordinator due defensive coordinator obviously played a part of it yeah I I think you got to give a lot of credit to Boise like for playing a really good game I mean like that that was the game that they really had to play to have a chance to keep this thing close you know it's a 24 point spread and they they took

it into the fourth quarter you know and like you look at this I I think Oregon was better than what Tom said not like by a ton but this really came down to Oregon was what oh three on on fourth down and Boise was Boise was two or three going in a game where you're not getting like 20 possessions like like you're getting like barely more than 10 right like that that's a huge

swing there they were both kind of if he on third down I agree I thought Dante Moore was like

for the most part just okay Boise was playing everything back right and like especially on the outside they were allowing them essentially like the you know throw the short stuff they tackled it extremely well up until the point when they didn't and then decorating more shook those guys and he was gone and I thought it took a little while for Oregon to adjust to some of the stuff the Boise was doing and eventually they ran him out of some of that stuff and then Oregon was

able to kind of exploit some like down the field you know in the middle of the field with some of those two I safety concepts you know I but like you have gained somebody by what two like 210 yards it's pretty solid like if you line this thing up again I don't think this game's close I think almost everything went and Boise's favorite that it could okay I don't think Oregon looked like a national championship team today but I think that's probably like Oregon's C game and Boise's A+ game

oh sure but here's the thing is Oregon typically is the one who is like not having to explain things

away right yeah Oregon is the one that's kicking ass and taking names and looking at the other powers and being like why do you explain away that ugly Alabama win why do you explain away that ugly Georgia win like why we're over here actually taking care of business it's not often that we find the Oregon ducks being the one who's having to explain away why we were 13 to 12 against Kentucky right I mean this was this was a little bit of a I mean it was almost an SEC kind of performance from the

ducks right here where I otherwise have been kind of a like leave no doubt kind of team for the last two years under Dan Lane totally agree I like you know Boise just kind of kept it kept it short like it wasn't like second and five it was like second and seven and then it was like third and four and they just kind of kept converting you know as we mentioned with the four down stuff there

they never really hit any explosives you know I think the start was huge I just think them just coming in

and just like bringing it to them from the very beginning letting them know who is who what was what bad mental errors by that Oregon defense early like like just not just the off sides but like the late the penalties I mean it's just a lot of stuff just wasn't quite screwed in not quite okay you know what I oh I like it yeah of course yeah in the in the post game handshake I am awful at lip reading but I'm just gonna believe this but I swear Dan Lane told Spencer Danielson

It's what we needed right it like he was like doing the like hey thank you kn...

each other whisper each other and as he's like pivoting he looks back and I swear he says it's what we

needed and I'm like yeah that's that sounds like somebody who is thrilled to be taking all this bad tape with a win into into the week ahead to be able to work on that for sure like if Oregon isn't looking more crisp they're gonna have problems eventually right like that it just looked a little bit at a sink you know what we were just pointing for you know a teen that brought back as much as the ducts did that's a more did still have a career high passing day oh for sure with it all of this

it's like he did have a bananas passing day in terms of the statistics and the explosives were there which is so funny Tom because my note pad and my and the staff box do not agree because times when I wrote down a miss for Dante more versus how many yards you can get from the explosive plays and he didn't even have that many incompletions it's just it's remarkable the way those two things didn't connect in this particular game yeah I'm not worried about them overall long term

but to go back to your point earlier though but like they were oh of three on fourth down but they had like two of them were fourth and one and that's part of what I'm talking about with their own yeah like they couldn't convert like they weren't able to push boysy out of the way

right I think that's concerning yeah definitely would be for the ducts moving forward

we think that all the all these issues are correctable yes they're extremely they're very talented like I would expect you know they're playing an Oklahoma State team on the road next week that just lost a Tulsa and probably been blown out by Tulsa yeah yeah yeah if they look just as kind of next week I'll start to be more concerned but again two years ago they started off with two

stinkers as well including a near lost to Boise State and then they went 13 or no and won the big 10 so yep totally fair um would you rather keep it big 10 or would you rather go back to another thrilling finish because um sure the big 10 would love a food god from a league yeah did not have a good weekend no they sure all right let's do you do you do you think that becomes uh I guess we're all UCLA still has Cal tomorrow Washington State oh god I hope that doesn't happen

well not just from the position of you know the big 10 but big 10 maybe not as shiny as thought a narrative coming out of week one I would I would say the top of the big 10 for the most part was fine except for Oregon like Ohio State had no problems in their game against Ball State Indiana defensively I was a North Texas was moving the ball pretty well yeah all right cool let's sit there

but why why wouldn't North Texas do I know they had some guys out in a second here they just

they were not like closing space very well it'll have your communication was kind of crappy honestly

like last year they would pass guys off extremely well like what we when we when we when we receiver go from one zone to the next like it was it was it was seamless and today there were seams for sure you know it was it was not clean if they were an extremely like veteran defense last year and like I know there were the jokes and the memes like how they're a bunch of 24 year olds like people were whatever about them in the title game because of it but they really did have a lot of

guys who had been in that defense for years and had played together for years it was kind of second nature for many of them and now they're working in new guys we're in roles that they weren't really used to and you saw more cracks in the armor than you typically are used to seeing from Indiana so it's it's it's gonna talk about losing AJ Harris it's gonna talk about the fact that they had to play both of their backup corners for a lot longer than they wanted to you know and and

miss especially in a game on a day where it's just hot and humid everywhere in America apparently you know that I've sure the depth is tested a little but they also ran the new Texas ran the ball well too I mean look you will all 43% success rate to North Texas that's like a really really rebuilt North Texas that I don't think's a good team at all but credit to them I'm changing that opinion by the way I'm not gonna say yeah I don't think North Texas is a bad team

we'll see yeah I'm not convinced yeah I think in the end of the defensively played like crap

that's fine I mean you're they just they were not creating negatives like the I don't think the D line didn't really special like I saw Nick Marsh do some special I saw Charlie Becker

catch it between three defenders on the third and long like Indiana was an Indian it was pulling

A rabbit out of a hat and North Texas does play defense too North Texas is go...

American and it's not like they're gonna get buried India's run games suck too honestly I guess

the team like North Texas that has to protect those corners wherever they were without both their top corners you might be without their top running back for a while yeah I mean 15 for 68 photographer Richard is that's really disappointing against North Texas that's that's not good I mean they looked like crap last year against Old Dominion too so it's again it's not one of those situations where it's like panic panic panic but just I was surprised how kind of

not amazing that they looked all the Joshua looked pretty damn good yeah I don't know I think the

Joshua Charlie Becker Nick Marsh is kind of that's that's good enough to carry you and mask over a

lot of issues I mean a lot of people don't have a Nick Marsh or Charlie Becker and Indiana's got

two of them but Nick Marsh had that great touchdown catch and then he had only one other catch in the entire game that's true but I'm telling it wise yeah I just it's I mean and there's also it's probably I mean it was very hot so maybe that played a role in it but I don't know I just it was hot everywhere today and I saw teach like better than Indiana also like how hot was it really in Indiana oh it was hot it was hot it was hot it was how like 88 hot or like oh it was like 100 something

on the field okay yeah yeah he's not here we can come on bro he's 48 the only place to get exactly no no but it there's okay I I have a little skepticism when we get this Midwest hot like you know Indiana what I have to teach you about corn sweat again yeah it's corn literally

sweats but that's how hot it gets vegetables sweat I was gonna main this summer like we have

a heat dome and I was like yeah sucks like I wish you guys brewery's actually had air conditioning but like guys like we're not dying out here like like man like golfing this main on the Atlantic Ocean Indiana's in the middle land there's no sea to cool it down it's it's also been in the heat X heat index and the hundreds like all week so it's just like the in escapeable heat at that point it's kind of a go it's Indiana there's nowhere to go in it just anyway maybe time

and again and again all of this all this complaining for a team that did put 56 points on the board and and when you're using too much credit for the josh Hoover I'm gonna say checkmark yeah yeah oh josh Hoover look great for a farming just with all that blood dripping down his face like a real good um water severs checking out everything concerns certainly things that you're going to be able to go and work on moving forward but Indiana schedule as we have detailed

it's going to provide a nice little runway before up over things really start to crank up let's see what you want to do a quick word on Ohio State anything there while we're here

didn't watch second of it did anybody actually watch it hey I watched I said I had it like on the

quadbox in the corner for most edge yet there was it Ohio State is better than ball state even with Celtic lustric quarterback to the Cardinal I just really could not keep up can we remind of the audience why we are a big we are a bowling ball state first well we are big fans of bowling ball state university yes we are but he's not as much of a bowling ball as maybe some of counts on Twitter wanted to make it look like or the lead but I heard you are cited in a newspaper

article as internet sensation or maybe that you had sight of you had caused an internet sensation

I think I think tweets from yours were used in an Ohio newspaper to like like here's what to

know about ball state and one of their like five things to know about ball state is their internet sensation quarterback that the internet sensation top for no I'm not kidding you like you know five things to know about ball state one of them was about the bowling ball quarterback so you've obviously turned the nation onto Celtic lustric I can't figure out why these papers are dead so we went from newspaper from like online folks aggregate newspapers yes yes yes yes yes yes

this is a good bud bud bud come on dog we've been we've been aggregating tweets for days years decades that can create the tweet in the print that doesn't want to know was it an actual print edition because then I'm not getting any impressions that's that is stealing from me that is about 0.07 cents that you just took from my pocket back in 2012 you could do 150 word intro one tweet 250 word spin and that's a blog post baby right about 10 of those a day we'd good to go

Site run a website uh Jeremiah Smith with eight catches 151 yards and two tou...

have a Malachi Tony Jeremiah Smith tracker he hit the highsman I saw that Jeremiah and Malachi I saw

Malachi did yeah yeah yeah Jeremiah many dudes too many guys hit my husband if you're receiving you know actually no well I don't even know which way to point anymore we've been having mirroring

issues um I think I'm with bud here if you're a wide receiver you're allowed to hit it

it's weed boy boys yeah but like you got to start you got to start the oral farming now because like it it's really uphill battle yeah 100% and too many good to me quarterbacks had big

days too yeah now you got to be able to fight through that um all right coming up on the other side

is good bailer wins likely nine seconds were left on the clock if I remember correctly

but great tackle and probably a bad pass from dj lagway kind of kind of put him in a bad body position to be able to try to fall forward fool this this was a game you know this was a this was a college football game with the fantastic ending it was a dj lagway experience real roller coaster I hope byron brown took out all the insurance policies before i had an Auburn defensive run to have itself a heyday because i do think there's a hey bailers defense like but there's also

the equally in a credit and blame here the way that Auburn's offensive front was able to hold up in this spot to create those opportunities shoo what we uh what i'm just right away

davoranda made the right decision I think so when you factor in like the fact they had like

carried dj lagway to the locker room like how long is that ankle going to hold out right like the

The offense there at the end i feel like had the upper hand if like if you go...

and over time you got to go round your best two point play anyway you might as well run your best

two point play now with the chance to win i think it was the right decision like analytically

it was also probably the right decision just with your own internal like we know how dj is feeling

basically right and you know an Auburn had started to run the ball a little bit better you know

maybe in the fourth quarter so i'd maybe you felt like they were gonna find something after being kind of dreadful an offense for most that game so i i fully agree with the decision i should have been a better ball dj probably um nice tackle by the kid to get the guys arms too like if he gets him around the waist he he probably extends any scores like he he wrapped everything that was huge yeah i agreed with the decision to go for it um i didn't agree with calling a timeout

all Auburn had told guys on the field but uh hey that's just week one that's fun for volity or week one who's to say a new coaching staff has you know everything involved in terms

of your packages i'm saying they had told you you let them off the hook and then you didn't yeah um

yeah i i was i will say like i hope dj's okay but i would also argue that if your quarterback's ankle is so bad that he needs to be carried off the field by his teammates he

probably shouldn't be playing do you think he should be throwing how many passes to throw?

54. 54. 54? 54 with the club foot. He threw some dimes too he did but i mean that's that's dj he threw some wow throws and then there's some wow throws i mean you wouldn't trade quarterbacks in this game no i would rather i don't like if Auburn has dj Auburn blows bailer out hold on repeat that one more time if Auburn has quarterbacks in this game Auburn blows bailer

off the field and for those who aren't looking on uh a new might it not have seen the game

byron brown uh contributed three interceptions and zero touchdowns for 74 yards yeah rain is ass off though and got torus a lot 25 completions for 120 air yards bro that was like all screens like i yeah and even he ran 21 times for 27 yards but this was as bad as he was like yeah yeah like remember we came back in 2011 i was like oh byron brown looks bad it i haven't seen anything to to think that it's gonna work i love i love

wrecking preseason narratives i'm just like i'm telling you guys he's bringing viral brown with them he's bringing kishan singleton with them he's bringing all these guys it's just we take this out Florida offense we copy we putting still be good like especially the g5 level right like if you run that wide split stuff with the g5 level it's a hack they're on enough good db's and you can find enough fast receivers just run by everybody you know like it could like the offense

still works if you run it well and you have good players like look at Tennessee but it's not automatic that it's gonna work and i like this look like if u_s_f_s_ often said it played better last year they're probably not going to be very good damn that's a bar what it would it Auburn bailer look like like u_s_f_ bailer right yeah also the the Auburn online was concerning yeah i also said is what about strongest like notes here like

okay okay this is not gonna be good when they have to go play the i don't know the rest of Auburn schedule better than 24% have a great which if you're not familiar according to the papers they 98% of our performance i'd be a dark green yeah i came on paper but that'd be a dark green

i mean not a guarantee but i think you'll face in better defensive fronts uh that then

what banners gonna run out there although they were actually pretty good i will get into credit like that yeah better delines is it to me it look pretty decent and they've undergone a lot of personnel changes and we have called davoranda to task for the fact that his defense was the one that fell short last season for one game for one week here on this particular insert reaction pod bailer's defense is a checkmark for davoranda it's a loss but i think you enter a big 12

play maybe more encouraged than you might have been otherwise also they have teddy pender grass is grandson it running back that can cut a lot of different ways Tom kind of depends on you know you're looking for um your you don't know by now um yeah i'll get out my silk suit and start crying in the rain too so uh but because the tailgate is ours we need to love them like they are ours sometimes they are uh complimentary sometimes they are mean but they offered something that at least

Continues this ongoing conversation of switching quarterbacks which again qb ...

proposed not me ashton Daniels or biron brown who'd you rather have oh god uh brown i think

oh the way through the ball lead eleven to summer really spook me to be on the way biron brown yeah all the letters are oh god this is not good um it looked like who is the kid at liberty with the Colorado okay in salt okay yeah yeah one of these things is not like yeah things just doesn't belong yeah did you see d-shown party out there today for liberty i did i had that one on a screen for a little while that was uh it was a game it's one of the

closer games of the day it was close it was not entertaining close but it was uh it had some some level of drama existed into the fourth quarter it held you hostage i mean that's really what it was doing it's like well i can't really turn it off because what if something happens it

is a really good argument by the way then unless you need to bet like a hundred thousand dollars game

you don't need to be waiting to bet until Saturday you should be firing earlier in the week um why because liberty plus seven was available for quite a long time this week and you would push and if you waited about that stuff on Saturday you lost oh okay um i was thinking more about James Madison and their defensive front and how they seems like they could still get after it but then the offense took the field and i was like oh they're not going to run away from

anybody this year are they it was very building a bearish on offense i think um derogatory the sea's derogatory yeah like liberty also seemed kind of discombobulated on offense for much that game right right like like it was not like the typical good liberty we would see with hey like you know offensive line playing cohesively they they found some stuff eventually but like it was just they also had like pretty bad field description for quite quite a bit of the game

yeah it kind of felt like in the first two and a half almost into the end of the third quarter

James you thought they could just put him the sleeper hold and just rock it out the rest of the way then all the sudden you get things rolling a little bit entertaining game nonetheless um okay do we score it's currently 38 to three do we just go ahead and write this uh write this a bit on LSU club center just you want to keep rocking through other games then we'll cycle back once it's actually final so we can put a final score and affirm stamp on it

it depends on on your definition of garbage time like by my definition of garbage time we're here we're here and Clemson has negative one rushing guards in LSU history in our 37 by JMU fans against Oregon we are not yet in garbage time so we guys what we want need to uh money deposit on this okay I think that saying Clemson has minus one year rushing yard really

doesn't do a justice what you should say is Clemson has 72 yards of offense late in the third quarter total

which one is your favorite seventy two uh we don't remember actually favorite Chris vizina or Tate Reynolds or Reynolds is four or five um he's not thrown a pick yet he has taken two sacks and seven dropbacks which is not super concerning he also it's Clemson's leading russia if you strip out the sacks and he entered the game at half time and on the show a few weeks ago yeah and Christopher vizina couldn't pull away from Tate

Reynolds in their quarterback competition probably should it took that as a sign because we're not sure Tate Reynolds is actually good no he's a three-star refreshman who didn't play as a senior because he was injured yeah correct and LSU has just extended the lead okay I think we can get the go down if you've ever had a you know we're told why didn't did it did LSU need the NFL players like what what are we doing this for I strive not to be a wicked and foolish generation and

chase after signs but it sure seems like now would be a fine time in the wake of that touchdown that's gonna make it forty five yeah forty five to three is what it'll be after this extra plan

muslin goes for two I think they're going for two are they they're going for two they're hot there

they're gonna put a lot of extra point which would be tremendous troll behavior um lanes going

for two this is this is live right here lanes going for two three twenty four left in the third

quarter up forty four to three asshole and they just burned the time out to go for two I mean you're not gonna need them probably but maybe maybe when they were

Walking in together live he'd done asked if I could go for two the top one um

coaching for the grand lane kiffin yeah this could you imagine the cloud that's going to

come out of this one um LSU is the is it is the fact you know I'm sorry the interrupt you should

because this was your kind of theory is lane doing this because Debo made him wait 90 minutes oh maybe yeah okay if that's the case I completely lane I'm sorry I'll do an asshole very fair I agree with you here yeah and and sit in the don't stay and stay out of my lane you know yeah all right well then that gets to I would I think it's the most interesting part of this is is this Debo's last stand hard seven I mean they haven't been good in several years

no they were ACC good as recently as two years ago but so was Virginia last year and nobody thinks they're still a title contender they were good to strong work they they have not been like you know among the sports elite in several years then they've been good like yeah consistently anytime they've come up against the elite in the last three four years this is what happened yeah I what was it two years ago against Georgia they lost 38 to three in the opener or something like that

those taxes are gone they're not on the roster anymore

taxes on the playoff game we were excited because they played well for the third quarter and made

it kind of close you're you're running out top 20 high school recruiting with little to no supplementation from the portal and you're not really like hitting on your high school guys at the same rate that you used to what was there last really good win many clubs and fans in the chat are you guys bothering to watch this right now can you help us it was the last

good win they beat a Notre Dame team late in the season I think 2023 2022

they beat a rank Louisville last year yeah they beat SMU and the ACC title game two years ago 2023 they beat Notre Dame 31 23 number 15 Notre Dame yeah but and that was the team that was dead like that was a team that was dead that was a program win a team that was dead a season that was lost they got up off the mat they threw a big haymaker at Notre Dame and Notre Dame team did go ten and three so I guess I did yeah I think there's something different too also we

well while the cover three podcasts will gladly be your search firm and undercut all those other search firms out there we are not the firing squad okay that is a that is a you decision university president athletic director administration y'all decide what you want to stand for you decide what your standard is but a measuring stick game last year when it was just like out of a low scoring hard scrabble both teams were fighting for it and you lose to LSU at home

you walk out of that like all right and what dabble even said both teams played their C plus game in LSU and Clemson both ended up falling short of preseason expectations so you could walk out of that and you can kind of pat yourself on the back and tell yourself that hey it wasn't that bad there is nothing about Saturday night's performance in death valley in Louisiana that has a Clemson fan feeling like they are anywhere close to even an expanded college

football playoff 12 16 I don't even know if this Clemson team makes a 24 team college football playoff and if that is the reality that you're looking at that is where the Clemson Tigers have to wonder whether or not they feel like this is going in the right direction yeah you ask if this is Clemson's last stand or dabbo's last stand I don't know but this is probably the last time we're going to see Clemson in like a week one spot by game for a while yeah like you just wouldn't

well I mean the last two times that they've been put in this like prime time Saturday week night spot

on week one they've lost by a billion

might as well schedule LSU vicious well no last year was tight no last year was a tight game 1710 right yeah yeah true for kind of a last year yeah then the one before was a 330 kickoff against Georgia that was the 33 K club Nick deer in the headlights right after the snap kind of stuff either way

I think that the networks you're going to be trying to avoid Clemson in these spots and we want

you're going to be on an ACC network you can kick

All right but before we do the

oh nice block up before we talk more LSU let's play the clip and go the way Chris Pizzina not being worth the damn is my three star

I think set hold on let's say that one more time and everybody else would be quiet because that

could be a banger Chris Pizzina not being worth the damn is my cover three star lock so let's go yeah I mean I didn't see any reason to think this guy was good at all the recruits who start out high because there's just not that many guys that play that that early and then they're they're ranking tanks like a casino like a jaden Davis you know like those guys bust at like a crazy high rate you know if you don't keep progressing

your junior your senior high school the track record is bad and then it's usually too late for the school to dump you because the quarter-act recruiting starts so early on you know it's tough by the way jaren is limping now badly

check out yes it's 26 seconds left in the first half he's left it around he just he just threw

kind of a bomb did he get caught yes yeah he's four or five one 20 plus you are through us tonight and Cal has 10 points because they seem obsessed with running the ball for some reason what about LSU I look pretty damn good I mean they're playing a nobody from the ACC that all things considered we saw their teams playing nobody's from smaller leagues and

looked like crap today so you have to be impressed with what you're seeing from the LSU

Tigers here LSU looks like a national championship team yeah I can't love it I can't love it's rushed for 113 yards unto old carries look if we didn't have preseason rankings and we just just off what you saw this weekend they're an easy number one

easy like it's 44 to three and a third quarter over a club's the team that we agree is not

elite now but like they're not as adults yeah like they're still some NFL guys and both sides of all for clubs and not as many as they used to have but like they're this is not a contest oh it's a bludgeoning Sam Sam Levitt's day is done land in Clark it's a shrimp boil is really by the way Len and Clark who was at Elon if you guys do stay up to watch this if Lane let's him sing it around he has a cannon was that weird that Clark is in before long street

I think a far former USC quarterback who committed Texas A&M I think first out of as a five star

out of high school do I have that right yeah yes but I I mean I think Clark's got some miljuice interesting look at LSU may have three quarterbacks who can play Kelly going quietly into that tonight I think Clark would start for clubs and maybe they should trade for them

that is against that yeah I mean that's the problem is if you get him

if you get him onto your campus and he doesn't develop dabbo doesn't run you off yeah there's no positive attrition there right yeah um the the speed of LSU's back seven was insane like been a field running around the backers looked fast as hell like Clemson could not get the edge all night like the first play the game had like four guard run it looked okay LSU kind of misfit it and then everything to the edge which is you know very Chad Morrissey and then

he was very good at it for quite a long time and you know maybe he still is I don't know not tonight like they just it was met like but it was at the line of scrimmage like they they gain almost nothing on that outside stuff you know Clemson's got two stud receivers and they would get open some on the outside but it wasn't like they were not really down the field stuff it was more like comeback and whatnot okay the safety's were crazy

does Lane have the under is that why we're putting the back up in before the fourth quarter has started are we waving the white flag because we're starting at 47 and we haven't quite got the where we need to get Danny got it 50 and a half so that was where it was on Thursday I'm guessing with the weather might have come down a little bit it probably got bad under slightly would you put LSU alright how about this what do you think about killing Russell and Alabama

if we're going to start moving these pieces around because Alabama a big you know spotlight opportunity what do we make of the crimson tide in their new starter you look good he looked good I thought Obama actually looked a little bit sloppy offensively early first year yeah like some

Some penalties of what not the ECU lost a ton I was a little bit concerned li...

to dump what what they win by it was where's my notes 48 to 10 yeah yeah I mean it's hard to dump

on somebody for going 48 10 right there success rate through like the first half was a little bit

concerning to me it was like hey we're going to kind of screw around we're not going to look clean

kill on's really really good I think and it's going to be like awesome immediately and the pocket

presence is crazy and he also like the scramble ability not only like the scramble to run but also scramble to throw is wild and so he just it's a little I'm not comparing him to my homes but you know I'm a home is kind of runs around crazy and then he's like fine somebody and then he's got the arms used to get it there they're like he's a really good scramble to throw guy I thought I've been taking great examples of this with the clips the tough pulled on the coverage of recruiting

show on on Wednesday like he just has a real knack and he's very accurate down the field it's like these scramble drills all of a sudden turn into home runs you know um it was like member Jim Evans yep like like a big time guest hit or almost like oh two count you think he's dead and all of a sudden like oh he's he's sitting her ball okay right I was going to bring up Jim Edmunds in the false hustle of diving for policy didn't have to die for oh

that's cuz man Jim Edmunds was a hall of favor at diving after he'd already made the catch except

for maybe that one at the wall maybe the one time yeah I I just I think like looking at it

he's got to keep them in a lot of games defensively they look good like the secondary is very nice the front had some some young guys kind of step up and that that looked good offense it looked explosive but not like cleaned me you know like LSU tonight looked like they knew what the hell they were doing I'm pretty much every snap so go ahead but you know it's also

it's first first career college start so maybe we should give you a kid's race he was awesome

all right you want to hear a story yeah do okay everyone's got opportunities right you know and maybe you have been working your way through you played linebacker at UT Martin right in the early 2000s and you've been working your way up the ladder and maybe maybe you've been defensive coordinator at Memphis for the last little bit and you've got this defense you've got to take care of killing Russell you've been doing a good job

of kind of causing some problems you know Alabama's looking sloppy right you've been dropping into coverage you've been trying to show killing Russell just a lot of arms and legs right and the offense is just scored a touchdown you're playing in Bryant Denny Stadium and this thing right here oh baby it's a 10 point game right 17 to 7 you got killing Russell on 3rd and 11 and remember you've been dropping everybody into coverage and just showing arms and legs and boys this is

how I know because ECU defensive coordinator Jordan Jenkins is about our age so I mean he's going to understand this reference he's set up there in the former UT Martin linebacker said "Liarar!" and after dropping eight in the coverage and showing the young quarterback nothing but like arms and batting down things he said I'm a blitz six and I'm just gonna sit back and sure enough Ryan Coleman Williams is like oh look at all of this open space in the defense with blitz six

they had his ass at 3rd and 11 down 10 early in the game like vibes or juice in Alabama was panicking and you just I just saw my man up there they even put him on screen and Lewis

Riddick's like yeah first time first time calm plays here for the pirates I'm sure he's

gonna wish he had that one back yeah you you got him but he's got you yeah yeah he's he's I tell you well about he disaster boys I tell you yes I've already said it over the head saying our boys were going he decides up now damn 58 yards on the on the conversion and tough scene and that's the card at this time and that was the thing is that got to go in and got him going hey he finished with a good stalemate so I'll be drops early in that game

I don't know what to make of Alabama I think they're sealing in floor about as far apart

and again in how about this I think Alabama will be a there ain't no pictures on the score card kind of team this year you know I think they will finish with the results that might be appropriate

The way that we get there is going be a ride they're not one of these pro gol...

who's all about bogey avoidance no like that bro they're shooting at pens we're going to put

up some big numbers and we're gonna have some equals I see that Ludwig are they like Ludwig energy

kill on Chuck 27 on the front yeah what yeah yeah 59 watch finishes at 67 or something like that exactly be a 48 to 10 I guess you know you're black hoodie for those who track such things for for Kail and DeBore good stuff yeah people used to track that yeah Bam is Jordan's thief like good Jordan's thief I would say more I like Phil Nicholson better for Alabama yeah there you go Phil Nicholson yeah he he more and more major I mean when he was

going yes yeah 100% like like maybe like let's go in and draw some balance on the

Kail and DeBore hold on hold on Kail and DeBore's Alabama is Phil Nicholson is a golfer

Mike for Isons Alabama is Phil Nicholson now Kail glad you went there okay well but before we get into re-ranking and another piece I want to make sure we hit is a celebration of the UMass Minitman and the other fun and for volity from Thursday and Friday night let's just sort of throw this thing around Tom where would you like to take our attention here on Saturn from Saturn A's action

uh gonna Oklahoma State a lot of a lot of hide coming into the year because you know that fired Mike Gundy they bring in Eric Morris he brings with him Drew Mastemaker to your one

quarterback according to the athletic and it I mean like I wrote in my in my anxiety rankings on Friday

I listed Oklahoma at number four because you're coming off of the terrible year and you're just kind of hoping that everything's gonna be better but what if it comes out and you lose again to tell us just like you lost to tell us the last year like what kind of you know like what does that do and that's exactly what happened like they came out and they scored 10 points and Drew Mastemaker did not look particularly impressive no part of the team really looked

all that impressive and you lost to a tells the team that was what four and eight last year yeah it's being it can only go up from here but like an improving tells the team for sure like they they were one of the teams we thought could if everything went right when they American you know when we talked to someone like this league is even more open than the SCC is but still like nobody expected I don't I did not expect him to lose to to tell us that

they lose the left tackle really early in the game he went off with an aircast and the legs like that that's obviously a ding but I thought their defense would be really probably suspect you know I don't know if I love their transfer class on defense but offensively that was shocking that they were not better than that you're getting whipped up front I don't think it's just the left tackle right yeah exactly I might I might copy and paste that as a two-way adjustment

yeah you know that that was that was all tell tell tell so joins the American picture with a very different a very different outlook and then Oklahoma state you know like

I think I was more impressed with Baylor I think I was more impressed with

Colorado Colorado I was more impressed with Colorado yeah not more impressed with West Virginia but like marginally I'm close to the guy quarterback by the way like Coastal when they get to conference play and they don't have just bodies all around I got because it's a big 12 offensive line versus you know kind of bottom to your sundell offensive line he can do some things they have some nice receivers on that team I guess that's going to be a fun

watch did you see did you see the rich ride handshake yes no that's bringing it up yeah it is weird because in this in this era you see a coach going up to that kid like that and you're like it five six seven whatever ten years ago you'd be like that's a great

game so you were fantastic but you know if that was you should be proud yourself now you see it

and you think and he's like love to have you here in Morgan tell you yeah let me know if you haven't you got any interest I think you fit really well in our office all right great game and we got to think he said I don't want to see you anymore unless you're playing for yeah

Wink wink all right so let's let's really stress test this Oklahoma state or ...

who it oh oh oh oh man I mean the best thing Cincinnati had going for it today is what was that they're standing for a trip booty chicks exactly I mean they they had touchdowns that

they fumble they had first downs that they fumble do you and believe the positive plays that they

fumble that's an important win for Cincinnati it's a very important win I'm not sure

how many more games yeah yeah that was I was yeah I was following that because I had the under on the locks and it was just I mentioned earlier sometimes games hold you hostage this one helped me hostage I was able to let go of of Penn State let that birdy fly free it had all of its own wings earlier than I expected my my big note on the note pad here was hey remember when Kobe Howard couldn't see the field at Penn State why was that because he looks pretty good right now

I don't know would we even wait for Penn State water severs and he'd been there all to be fair oh well quarterback there's a quarterback that actually throws to

wider severs on the team now you didn't have one before so they just left him on the sideline

because he's just been wasting his breath on the field um I thought that was obviously very strong showing and perhaps the one one thing thought Rocco looked good and the defense just didn't give an inch Carlos Del Rio Wilson was named the offensive preseason player the year in the Sunbelt and couldn't get anything done at all so um yeah I was that was catch I uh Houston two things like they had bad turnover luck for sure they also allowed like 400 something yards to

Oregon State and like couldn't get stops and that was a little concerning six point game midway through the fourth quarter I thought or my notes were that Houston played well but they could

never put Oregon State away and so the fact that they couldn't put Oregon State away

is a monitoring to a situation because Oregon State with Jamaica Shepherd taking over was such a huge just kind of up-heaval reboot that I just don't have anything I know clue what to expect so either Houston's not a top 25 team or Oregon State's gonna make things interesting in the pack 12 who's the greatest college football offensive all time the greatest yeah 1916 army with three thumbs McGee and um all right never mind

right um I thought you would but I think the best of them is like high scoring like total

points is what 2019 LSU I scoring for games 2013 for state there's oh eight Oklahoma know it has yeah yeah yeah yeah you said it already do you know who had a game that was

like 2019 LSU today the first quarterback to throw for 450 yards and seven touchdowns are more

with no insurance I mean Mason high show Mason high show Mason high show 453 yards seven touchdowns no interceptions against Miami you are really good day he played so well that Cal came out tonight and said I want to dress like pit seven touchdowns most touchdown passes in the game in ACC history uh most touchdown passes and a season opener tied with uh with Tanner Morkai Bailey Zappy drew lock in Tim

couch in terms of most passing touchdowns and a season opener over the last 30 seasons in FBS history people tried to put him on up settler I I fell short you know I had a hard time thinking like knowing how bad nor doozy just terrorizes bad quarterbacks and since my middle high starter was out like is it back up really going to do anything to them one got sideways I just wish it he's good yeah yep we'll be a lot of fun that makes pit a very live dog at the ACC oh god yeah

like our doozy with lead mm-hmm wait no no no you said he's he was saying makes pit a lot he was saying makes pit a lot yeah about that to get out early yeah and it's like you know you got because Miami is the clear favorite and everybody else is an underdog in that league so we're looking for another team that'll step up and I you got Mason I actually pit is legitimate

In the ACC yeah they are coming up on the other side what will the top 25 loo...

n-o-t mf store back here on the cover three podcast and re-ranking the top 25 is sponsored all season long by modello college football season is modello season the fight songs the fanquakes the rivalry trophies are all better with an ice cold modello in your hand it's not just game day it's tradition and those who keep college traditions alive you deserve a modello modello is the official sponsor of the college football playoff so with not all of the week one action but certainly plenty

in the books we're taking a look to find out where the teams will be moving after the results and as we mentioned earlier in the show there are teams that could be moving down even after a win

among those teams are the organ ducks so after 14 first place votes propelled them up to number

two in the rankings tom but my projection is that the ducks will fall in the rankings but I'll cap it it like four or five no more than two three spots here thoughts I mean my initial reaction is that seems like a dramatic response we usually don't see that when teams win but there was so much like compact between those top seven that I do think there's a legitimate argument to be made that yeah that's very possible because while I stay blue out you know fall

state the Georgia blue out whatever they've beaten by six yet can't ever really play at this point Notre Dame we have to wait and see Texas looked really good Indiana we talked earlier in the show was not outstanding but they still weren't comfortably in Miami just absolutely whipped Stanford on Friday night

so yeah no I wouldn't be shocked at all if Oregon drops a spot or two I think that's a good call

but fair yeah I mean look I usually refer to chip on this I do think the fact that there were like seven teams like so tightly clustered we also we got to see what Notre Dame looks like against Wisconsin to

Barnett right Georgia in Texas neither of them getting first place votes was such a story line

and these rankings were released almost a month ago I wonder if AP voters the 14 of them who had Oregon number one I'm sure a couple of them will remain steadfast and say hey there win I'm not going to bump them from the number one spot but if you had any idea of a debate in your mind I just don't know if there's any way you look at those top seven teams and say that is still the one that I believe is the number one team in the country the loss of those first place votes plus people who

might have had them to that drop them to three or three and then drop them to four I think that's where

you start to get that churn again I'll put a cap on how far they fall because they did win the game but Georgia didn't get any first place votes Texas didn't get any first place votes both of those SEC teams were dominant in victory so I do think that Oregon will be moving down how about this next projection bud I would not be surprised again judging by the very small margins between teams if we see number 13 Alabama end up maybe as high as 11 maybe knocking on the door right there behind

Oklahoma just off the backs of this if you looked at the way that Alabama was viewed and the way that Alabama was considered they had questions about quarterback they had questions about the run game they had a lot of questions seems like they were answered in this win at least to it from a voter's perspective certainly so I could see Alabama maybe jumping ahead Ole Miss still has to play so that would change the ordering and we made note of that as such but do you

think that Crimson tied did enough to be able to answer some of the doubters yeah I mean I think

they should be it like just based off one game right should be ahead of Texas Tech and Texas saying

it for sure right like those two teams did not look amazing at all against like bad competition

so yeah I I think that's fair I that range is as fast as like I guess I don't want to jump ahead

Of you on questions do you have an LSU question where does LSU land yeah like...

the top seven no because like Miami's offense looked awesome they're I would say they're past rush given how many offensive Lime and Stanford had out was a little bit disappointing to me oh nine it's like kick off on a Friday night to an AP voter that fun sport that everything you did I was looking for more from Wilson the the the the big trench they got from Missouri man like I I that's kind of that big like the huge question about that team is you know how do you

replace the past rush now they had some guys look good but like I thought they were going to look better given the personnel that Stanford did not have in the ball game but not predict they

probably didn't do enough to look like to drop is LSU go to eight I think LSU is in I think LSU

is threatening the eight nine spot and we've got again we still have all missed like nine which is going to be sort of like a big you know a big way that that could change yeah I was going to say if all miss loses they're definitely jumping in it's just it's a question of how far they will because I don't think Oklahoma is going to get punished much good for dominating you tap and I don't think Texas saying them will get punished much but if all miss loses definitely

but I do believe that just based on this being the big game of the weekend at least on Saturday with a lot of people watching it unless you it's going to be in the top ten it's the question of who who will they pass to get there I mean the the real shame here is all all the media members that don't get to make their dinner reservations tonight in Patton Rouge you know drink a medello for them tonight you know this this medello is for all the AP voters

who I'm I'm always very very kind to you guys know that whether it's in this segment or if it's

on Monday when we're going over the AP poll but I will say I mentioned it earlier in the show I think AP voters should rank Western Michigan oh message if that hashtag going out there rank Western Michigan contact your local AP voter find Ralph Russo and rank him until he agrees to vote Western Michigan on his ballot in place of Michigan wherever you were going to put Michigan on your ballot put Western Michigan that is my plea

to any AP voter listening to this show that would be you know normally for Tom's enemy my friend

Ralph Russo they I would try to take his back no but you should actually go and and find him

and apply the pressure do you want and you should I give out his phone number please hear listeners can text him and tell him to rank Western Michigan no okay I don't I don't condone I don't condone doxing or harassment in general but in this like very small case I think I can do just tweet at him you know it'll be good for his algorithm anyway I'm sure we're helping him along the way

I don't know if he's getting those Elon checks we'll see last piece speaking of where does Michigan fall in Michigan they cannot be 16 I would anticipate the probably still be ranked but I would guess they're going to be more in the 20s yeah there's enough voters that

basically like they just yeah up-down side yeah yeah although hey you know it there might be

some AP voters who thought they lost I'd turn the game off thought it was over who knows I've I've officially I mean but the story that's going up tonight on CBS Sports dot com is more of a general projection because we can't nail in I mean still with the likes of Washington and also Ole Miss and also Louisville and also Notre Dame and also SMU still left to go we can't nail in exact spots but in in my blurb I mentioned

look for that Penn State range you know voters might use Penn State as a nice okay I don't really think you're in that USC category which by the way USC is too annoying as done nothing look good and they looked much better against Fresno than they did and in fact that's you know if we look at what Boise was doing today against Oregon compared to what Fresno looked like last night

against USC I think I think there's a clear cut favorite emerging in the packs well based off of that

Len and Clark now has more passing yards than either of the plumps of quarterbacks oh we're up to fifty to three Danny loses down there if you were awake you'd be sad right congrats miss you did it

it's incredible of course we will be ranking more specifically once we've got full weekends here

on the re ranking the segment tomorrow's top 25 today and that was re ranking the top 25 sponsored by

Modello while the rankings may change from week to week Modello will always b...

as the perfect companion to any college football Saturday remember college football season is

Bo Dello season all right let's uh phase on Brandon who got eyes on phase on Brandon

phase on the lights yeah I just got highlights too that one's on the DVR I didn't get to watch it in real time phase on fact wait let's go there's a there's a segment we can have every week

through for three touchdowns ran for two last SEC quarterback to do that in their first start

Johnny Manzo deck press Scott no Cam Newton 2010 oh season ended pretty well for him that's a good poll Malachi Tony had 12 catches for 234 yards and three touchdowns through what if Andrew looks and I all plan was to place a bunch of money and Darien Mince and Malachi Tony 12 and they just played man all night because of it what if that was secret genius move by it it sounds like sounds like chip Kelly being stunned that Oregon went 101 with Jeremiah Smith

and the Roseball yeah how'd you do that yeah I could at least understand Oregon thinking it can

I don't understand why Stanford thought it could it I think they were just like we're going to

get killed anyway we're just going to play our defense right like we played a ton of man on Hawaii last week and we're also still doing that here against Miami yeah that was that was not competitive 90% completion percentage 400 plus passing yards and five plus passing touchdowns in a game over the last five seasons Darien Mincey your company is Dylan Gabriel CJ Straud and Matt Corral that'll work that will work how many teams will Miami do this to

a launch schedule yeah because this is the other thing is this game was over fast well Miami win five conference games by 21 plus they will do it for an M probably do it at

wake they'll do it to central I think you guys even would have watched tonight they're going to do

it to Clemson I mean I was going to say like not to go super knuckle draggy on this but I kind of think that there's something to be taken from Miami not showing up and tripping all over its feet and show it and being said no this is a it's a different team but we're not going to just go out to California and and try and trip all over ourselves as we don't understand who we are and what we're trying to do business trip they treated it as such it's good work in that way for a while

I don't need to see Georgia play Tennessee State ever again by the way I mean that that that's that's kind of embarrassing like I'm not trying to rag on Georgia here but like if you're a Georgia fan you showed up for that like in like the 170 degree heat dude they're like that's like a legitimately bad FCS team what like the safety it's your joke I'm at about JMU is like legitimately applicable here okay so not a joke so Jeff Brahm made it seem like

the reason they got a little miss was because Georgia backed out and that must be why Georgia ends up with this that makes sense Georgia did cover by the way yeah how bad I'll

they slow it down like crazy but that's that said that they never come did uh what did you

guys think of the Rutgers fireworks show oh boy did you happen to notice and I've got a shout out Nate Tyson this one did you see this you haven't said it someone someone might be at 99 wins at Rutgers so you might have gone extra heavy on the fireworks show oh thinking that it was gonna be 100 win one number 100 oh she got no you got 100 win fireworks show and instead we're shooting it off after the humans win god oh that's tough I mean it was already tough

shout out Nate I know you like the show I appreciate that shout out to the humass we only

Needed 60 minutes man forget the god of home but like pop wants it bring it b...

mess zoom ass lambhurst I mean we're returning you mess into a party school again let's call out anybody's credentials but like everybody's like who's this pop wants a guy it's like

he started like Nebraska and he was at Virginia Tech you should you should have heard of him

by now like that should not have been the first time you heard his name but like if you're if you're

Rutgers what do you do after that like you you're not gonna fire him after the first game of the season right but it's the seventh season in the second stint things have clearly plateaued and that's being as nice as I possibly can be and then you're losing to the humass team that went on 12 or whatever last year and was like 7 and 35 and the last five years just clumps the score to touchdown shoot off fireworks no but's got his team told him yeah this is not good

anyway that's it wait is it only minutes left in the game no yeah you're a 20 and a half you're fine yeah I was just talking about just simply there's an empty tiger stadium the football game is still technically happening all you know we're literally interviewing like a cheerleader

cheerleader because he did too many push-ups the game it hit the point that they took they're like

how eight a Laura come on back from the clumps inside line we don't need you over there anymore we want you to come interview the cheerleader that just did 51 push-ups will we get a social media clip of Laura running over there maybe I don't know um will you would you take would you rather be Clemson or Rutgers right now Jesus Christ I'd rather be Clemson shift come on you're setting me up to be a child but I'm not good

I've got no I don't hate Clemson that much wow would you rather be Clemson or Rutgers right now Rutgers was the better team on the field it was like there was nothing fluky about like they they beat their ass you mean um you master the better team yes better than Rutgers like like it was that hasn't happened often like in a history of our sport where like a foretouch down dog goes out and just dominate somebody I mean it was evident early like it's it's one thing you

see like in the first game of the year first drive the year like you mass charged on the field

scores like okay but like and then Rutgers drives down the field scores then Rutgers goes three and out punts and you mass goes right back down the field in the scores and it was at that moment I was like oh shit this might be a thing yeah if you had like computer vision analyzing that game like it would have highlighted this part of like Rutgers is not getting surge at the line of skirmitch and like they're allowing separation and it's this is not just like a

hey you mass is doing some different stuff it will we'll settle in it will take a quarter it's like shoot like after a certain point you're not in the script anymore like you're you're kind of seeing what these guys run and you don't have answers for it yeah the fireworks show reminds me of the

the between third and fourth quarter height video that they played at Carolina TCU last year

game one of the bill bellachick era where they they they had like a 50,000 dollar light show and it was one of those things that all the fans were given something that was supposed to participate in it but all the fans had left so you know it didn't it was a little disjoined it they finally shot it off but I guess if you spend all the money on the theatrics my soul is still like I just imagined that there was no good enough chance to use them she might as well blow them off

I mean I feel like that there was some pyrotechnic expert who was just you don't know anything about the football game who's waiting for someone to tell him go oh that's it's because it was using army 1916 names for any four fingers our target techniques except he's supposed to let him fire ship would you rather be Rutgers or UMass would I rather be Rutgers today yeah UMass for the rest of time I don't know I've learned a lot about zoom ass slamherst in the

last three days I don't realize the kind of reputation they had back in the day you know

okay I think I think I'm in we have the big 10 statement by the way not not Rutgers to

buckle but on the thing you know Michigan let's go you want to read it you want me to read it I got you oh guys statement from the big 10 oh here we go following video review it was determined Western Michigan's number 18 started his jump from an established out of bounds position parentheses left foot and made contact with the ball with one second remaining on the clock as shown in the provided video of what was viewed during the replay process a side by side view

Of the play and the game clock using a direct shot of the game clock in the s...

determine the final ruling 85 minutes prior to the game all broadcast cameras used for the replay

system including the camera on the game clock are synced using a strobe system to ensure all cameras are aligned per NCW rule four dash two dash three dash a quote a ball not in player control other than a kick that scores a field goal is out of bounds when it touches the ground a player a game official or anything else that is out of bounds or is on or outside the boundary line and thus the clock is stopped okay so apparently the Michigan attorneys were aware

of this unique wrinkle which I think is the Miami Virginia Tech from two years ago

yeah so yeah from a friend explaining this who I I think would know but I don't know

but this does like if they didn't rig it right then this is basically how it works

they have like an accurate decimal system whereas the TV clock is just showing like full seconds right if there's any time remaining on the decimal thing it's a second right if you actually go and you you look at it with it doesn't round up round down when we're talking about the clock well like the TV clock doesn't right so pretty clearly it's under nine seconds if you decimal it out the issue on the stadium clock is no decimals goes from nine to eight instantly

on hike right when it hits eight it's eight point nine nine instant it hits zero it's zero point nine nine two one so what are you saying it's right now there's right now there's 0.09 like 16 milliseconds left essentially right big Miami Virginia Tech energy this would be really helpful if the big ten had the review like on camera crew that a lot of other leagues have now I don't know I still think it's they're going to have it on Friday nights for some reason they didn't have it available

it probably has a big lift to make it ever like did they do central central replay for big ten or is it on site you know it's central okay they've got the nice little replay center and Rose mom the the office I think that West I think Western Michigan has every right to be very upset yes I think it was a a gay in ending that did not represent the game whatsoever and while I don't ask forever I don't ever ever ask for college football to be perfect as a fan

I can watch that game and watch that ending they I was kind of crappy that's kind of that's

that's how I'll be closing the book on that one um in addition to the large set of things that

I'm carrying forward with Michigan and look what's the Michigan eight nothing to f with you know it'll be different it'll be a different world obviously you get into the heart of Mac play in action there's good mission Western Michigan you they have a knockoff it's game against Boisey State who if they don't want tonight then they'd have gone and beaten Boisey State then they'd have won the Mac yes what they would have had a legitimate argument for

mm-hmm but you know it also Lance Taylor might enjoy life in the triangle you know it's beautiful around here I could offer you I might have multiple ACC jobs for you Lance I'm the list you know yeah another top performer today Nate Shepherd who goes for two twenty seven for two for Duke hell yeah let's keep it there around five carries against two lane this is one of the worst quarterback games I've ever watched like combined

Walker he get 13 to 26 for a buck 31 a lot of just passes that we're nowhere close to anybody Samanza for two lane they put in after they benched Zeon Chris Zeon Chris six of nine for 64 see that that Nate Shepherd line terrifies me because after watching Illinois's run defense against

UAB on Thursday night you don't really want to see Nate Shepherd always go over 50 Tom not

yards carries yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah he's ready to do it right Nate I like I mean I think Nate's

a super impressive player like he's a yeah that is the lead that's one of the leaders of that team right

He is more than happy he gets his number called to be I'd be able to go out t...

so ready the cold tub yeah sure is it a softball he's a young guy right yeah he can he can

he can he's good oh he's good oh he'll just throw him out there he'll be he'll be good he'd do it

just shorter by the time to see the men's uh by my boss Haney tonight for Colorado State uh he's good like I why on these defense not very good but like Colorado State's got one that they're gonna be really fun to watch the uh the Oklahoma State former quarterback the fan bases watching their former quarterbacks play well in other places is a fun aspect of the new college football world that we have so as Oklahoma State is losing to Tulsa Oklahoma State fans

are also watching Haw's Haney you know win or did you realize that there were like four Dave Klauson recruited quarterbacks who started games this weekend you know if if you reach all the way to a Mitch Griffiths you know to all the others a lot a lot of old wake quarterbacks out here in the streets right now a lot of fan bases watching their former cubies go out there geolope has you know things to that nature uh how about Jane Mayiva you know we mentioned it earlier

but it was a Friday night game thirty nine to zero twenty three for twenty five for three hundred and forty nine yards and three touchdowns you get a pair of freshman receivers both going for more than a hundred with Trent Mosley and Caden Dix and Wyatt the first freshman duo with the hundred plus receiving yards each in a game in the last six seasons uh we didn't have to

question the culture of the backups I don't know if you're familiar but sometimes I always

am concerned when the third stringers lead in the touchdowns maybe an indication of culture nothing better than being able to clean that up come in and pitch uh pitch a shot out thirty nine to nothing I two games USC's done USC's done a lot outside of the garbage time period yeah I don't have a lot to complain about through eight quarters of USC football I also feel slightly better about their like even though they're up thirty five to three against San Jose San Jose did

had like two successful drives it just kind of ended like ended fairly deep in USC territory like San Jose offense like we've already put a good player you know for that level like that's that's going to happen occasionally I guess like they they were so physical on Thursday night like that with or whatever night that was like that was wild man like that they they just overwhelmed

what I think is a pretty decent Fresno team you know that was I was like Caden Dix and Wyatt

obviously mostly goes over 100 again I would just they're good uh Hank Brown may have won the Iowa job uh what did the score end up being there I guess Northern Illinois 14 enough and he looked very much fighter yards yeah they look he looked much better than I mean yeah they ran all over like Murray Bolton had a hundred eighty three yards and 11 carries but uh the better get ready for a world in which Iowa has a wide receiver that we're us there he is Tony D. S.

yep seven catches eighty four yards touchdown a little little water bug jittery slot type

I've never seen Iowa with a dude like that in a while um Archbending Archbending Archbending Archbending

the Texas Longhorns we've not gotten a chance to react to their 59 to seven winning against Texas State I mean we had a win go we had a cam Coleman this was a this is a highlights game for me

mostly a key plays game for me mostly I wasn't watching it in the flow of the game any strong

takeaways right now for me the one-y um no I a couple like watching this live I wanted to see like like how the defense is gonna play like they they played like they were angry and that was maybe that's the most champ thing shot in three like the offensive line was was pretty physical like it they they they look good I mean they they have so much skill like they can just kind of do whatever and still look good do you listen bye bye bye bye we had to pee again

we're good yeah there he is all right cool did my did my voice come through or just know you know I said I like the mentality Texas played with like it was like like they were angry like they were out to prove something can I can I recall something that you may have seen

During either fall camp or this week of practice I think it was fall camp act...

about two weeks ago Colin Simmons was talking about how he feels like he's really improved his

run defense and a reporter asked a good follow-up question that sit was well how do you think that's

happened and Colin Simmons says and I'm gonna edit this he said I think I just stopped given a

duck except he didn't say duck and he said it to say and then he said it to the reporter and I think that's actually run defense you know you just kind of have to stop given a duck and like if you've got a whole team of five star athletes that felt like maybe they were given too many ducks and now they're gonna stop given ducks and they're just gonna charge in there and play angry and play

nasty that's kind of how you do the the last little piece of being able to turn the switch and

turn a very talented roster into one that competes for championships so um we're seeing Biles great addition thought he was very very good as well it'll be a lot of fun to watch Texas certainly a piece of the national championship conversation at every single turn I got Miami Texas A&M didn't watch it I can't tell you anything about it. You see weird amount because it kind of got on the one of the quad casts. I was gonna say you texted it was that I don't want to take

your I don't want to stomp on your take but final score didn't match up with the observation but I think I'm with you because it was still not there yet and then it just kind of looked like it was maybe some style points late. Yeah I like offensive line didn't look all together now granted

first came out new group well we kind of too early to tell but like they didn't look you know

very yet for sure um did anybody watch Texas Tech because I didn't get eyes on that one. I added it when it was um I saw a mistackle lead to a Texas Tech touchdown and then Evelyn Christian score their first touchdown in the game like that like 26 to 33 to 10 kind of area but I didn't I didn't feel like I was ready to grade Willham and yet I need to get a full full look on it and it is Evelyn Christian too. God sure. The one text Danny sent about it was

not encouraging. That's what I was thinking. Yeah. All right we got um I did not get to see Utah

Utah Idaho. No I was no need to watch that um the brass goes speaking of things that weren't encouraging. I think they got their act together but um big ten just struck I mean again like we talked earlier outside of the teams that's top of the league not including Oregon the big ten just did not have the most impressive weekend. Me not Northwestern struggled with South Dakota State just yeah. Colorado Georgia Tech.

Oh yeah. That's that's depressing if you're a Georgia Tech fan. On so many levels. You're like damn like we needed that game to go to a bowl. No you're like damn we had that game and we blew it so many times. I mean is the late clock management issue a weird reversal of the Miami game the kneeling like they were the benefactor of Mario Crystal ball not kneeling and then the clock management was so horrendous and the decision making

didn't work either. I mean all of it compounded. I call it I don't run in the ball down there through. Yeah like Colorado was pretty clear couldn't throw and tech still couldn't do anything about Colorado running the ball or Georgia Tech couldn't run the ball against Colorado's defense of front. Okay I don't think this is the case.

But a lot of people on Twitter were like was Brent key you know just a Haynes King bus for

Faulkner Merchant. I'm will tell. Yeah. There were meaner comments made along those same lines. But oh we're a family shut chip. I know we don't make we support. James Franklin does a support there are troops just absolutely absolutely just disrespectful to the military institute. He was like what the after key debt get out of here. 73 to three against Virginia military

institute. It could have been 100 I would argue they did respect troops because they could have put up 100 in that game. I saw him yelling at a ref in the fourth quarter. Frank Beamer couldn't believe what you did out there. You guys standard. 66 to 21 for for the Florida Gators.

I stopped watching that one probably that mid second quarter was pretty obvio...

was going to go on there. They're like crazy exposed about offense you know the Faulkner could play calling phyllo operates it just fine. Kind of don't think that was a competition at quarterback but it could be wrong. My big headline here is Jaden Ball. Like not only was he productive with the numbers 160 yards in three touchdowns but the runs themselves for the oh heavens debits it the boy can scoot. I mean he's just like the stop the

start the explosion. I mean it's just it's all there just because you've got the talent just

because you did it on tape once doesn't mean it's always going to show up. That boy is he's ready for

week one. I mean he's ready to go. So that's so exciting. Yes. We have statement from the Mac. Oh my goodness. They're suing they're suing. They're suing. They're suing. No this is this is the mid West for you. Official statement from Mid American Conference Commissioner Dr. John Steinbracker upon the conclusion of the Western Michigan Michigan football game the Mid American Conference in Western Michigan contacted the Big Ten Office to seek clarification regarding the replay review

and the placement of time back on the game clock. The Big Ten explained that the ball touched a player who was out of bounds before the clock reached zero resulting in one additional play being

awarded. The Big Ten subsequently provided video in audio of the replay which confirmed the

explanation provided to us. I commend Western Michigan for an outstanding effort and a well-played game and I offer my congratulations to Michigan. I also appreciate the collaborative efforts of the Big Ten Office and its proper sponsor in reviewing the play at providing the requested clarification. So they're letting it go. For Signetti did say in the Midwest we don't line. We don't complain. We take the results and we deal with them.

Your car sells up by our bootstraps and we get back to work on the farm. It's just I know you got that big ass check from Michigan for playing the game. You really deserve the win. The 1.5

mill or whatever it is. Man. I mean I guess you'll have the Lance Taylor buy out check, right?

Don't do it. Don't do it. Don't do it to now. Come on man. They haven't had a bad enough

nightships. Yeah, that's too bad. Mind if I steal your pouch. I'll take them and we got some construction down the road. I'm sure they'll take them in West Rowley. There's nothing to be anywhere. Okay, anything else. Everybody needs a coach Taylor in their life. Every absolute in a miss is coach and a miss and a miss Taylor. Colin Simmons, bear Alexander, Mason, Heinch, Joel Jordan Hankens, Martian Becker. Oh, USF. Man 10 of 17 for 91 through the air against

FIU. Tyden Berkeley, by the way. Yeah. USF's defense. Awesome. Okay. Like they suck out loud or an offense, but man, that defense can go. Is that just athletes? Just like who they were able to get based on being South Florida? I don't know if they're DC is, but like they look really well coached to like those guys play hard. They're like relentless. They definitely have some dudes as well. But like, I can't imagine what their practice like looks like. Oh, because the offense

when they go good on good, that's that's a horror movie. I thought fans were leaders Josh Aldrich.

Like I think if I use offense to me is considerably better than USF's offense, like watching them play.

How did FIU? I did, I did not get any ice on this one yet. Obviously it was very interested in it. Big love Willie Simmons thought it was an interesting spot, especially with Brian Hartline being in game one was FIU able to move the ball on the ground. They did score very clear. Like I was score tracking this, but I didn't watch it. They scored at the end. I know, to cover. So they had they had three turnovers, which really created most of USF's offense. I thought Cole for FIU.

Like we'll monitor this when it comes time for conference play, but he actually can make like the wide, like the wide side of the field throw. And you know it's minute what we're almost two hours here. We're talking FIU quarterback come conference play. Sorry, guys. But men, USF was

contesting almost every throw. Like I think USF, I think FIU is going to be fine. Come conference play.

I think any of those going two hours and talking about FIU right now. What'd you say? Do you think any other shows at two hours talking about FIU? We don't talk

The G6 Tom.

to the next show. They've been talking about Lane Kiffin for 45 minutes. Yeah. It's all I'm saying.

At this point, I'm really just doing this show for us. At this point, we really are just dumping our notebooks for each other. You know like one hour for 157. I truly respect the thoughts and opinions. And I enjoy hearing what Tom Fronelli and but Elliott have to say about the day that was because we just all took it like a fire hose. We did the best we could. We watched what we wanted or what we needed to or some combination of

the both. And because college football is crazy like that, we're not able to get to everything. And some things are going to be watched on Sunday. And some things might even be watched Monday morning before a pun further review. But yeah, at this point, if the tailgate has one game that they would want us to hit, well, day ones, no. You shout out us in the tailgate and we've got comments on it. We thought it. Then we'll talk about it. It might be interested in this game

staying under 55 and a half. But Mississippi Valley State is the by-game for Sacramento State in the Sac State's quarterback's out. The backup had no problem with the Mississippi Valley State by the way, 18 and 28, 24/7. He started for Mississippi Valley State University. He was six of 13, four, you want to guess how many yards? 13 yards. Tom, they're 13 yards on the nose.

Let's go. Did you really just pull that? Yes. Dude, yeah, six. You think where's that trophy?

Come on. See, but here's the problem. If Mississippi Valley State, you think they just give me that? Bro. If Mississippi Valley State does beat Sacramento State, it would be yet another, while, while UMass was able to bring such glory to the Mac and Western Michigan tribe, all in green did lose the Charleston State today. Yeah, yeah. The Charleston should have been favored. Yeah. Like they were two and a half point dogs. But they lost last week, right?

Yeah. They were to stay in back in. Yeah, it was, it was on the sprinkle card. It was number three. I didn't put it on there. But it was very much in consideration and I was upset that I didn't. Speaking of laying, I would be interested in his pressure. Did he say anything crazy? I don't know. I don't know. It's it's one 14 AM on the East Coast Chets kind of while in they were saying some things about his post game comments. I don't think it's appropriate.

I need to see it with my own eyes. I don't believe their translation. North Dakota State is going to shock you. Just absolutely had a team and the figure four four quarters 38 to zero. App state had. App state had more points in

their winningance main than Michigan had second half yards at one point. I was kind of sitting

on that one until the final game winning play. Speaking of week one memories of old. So are we going to Jared Curtis? Oh, because things were so shaky early, Burnley was wasn't terrible. But Curtis had some cool highlight runs, but made one really nice pass.

Well, modern situation I guess. What was the order?

So Blaze finishes 11 for 16 Jared seven for nine. Interesting. Oh, tomorrow Taylor looked awesome. Yeah. That's good. Yeah. I mean, I would expect it with that kind of offense against, you know, but still like he looked good, which is a really important for Mississippi State. In IU might be the worst team in the country outside of like sex state, but even that I'm not really sure. Pulling green might be

that conversation too. As worst FBS. Yeah. Memphis was able to back it up, but it was a dicey early. I don't know what to make of that, but 42, 24 is our final. We'll go back and review the tape on that one. I watched most of this. What's this? What's this kid's name?

Shealand Rainer. You always ask about jail in Rainer.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Rainer somewhere else now. He's not at rock and roll.

That's what I was saying. I was saying I was saying I was saying I was saying. I didn't see

I was saying today either. Yeah. They got it together. They look bad early, but they they got it together. Oh, shoot. Is it tray brown? Somebody's going to tray oh and excuse me. Yes. He's pretty good. Yeah, but but it was good. Okay. He made a lot of really impressive passes to me.

Nobody else in that league is going to brush the past for like that.

I mean, U.S. have a put some pressure on him, but like, you know, well, they're in some

belt anyway, so they won't face U.S. F. Excuse me, it's almost to him. I thought he was good.

Like he made, he made some nice plays early. Memphis was sloppy early. This is going to shock you, but Memphis inevitably hit a bunch of explosive plays and then got a bunch of sacks and pressures in turn up. What was the baseball player that y'all call Memphis's offense? Adam Dunn? Yes. Yeah, it is very out of touch. Like Stokes at one point, luckily he was so down and so sack that he couldn't get the ball up, but he was like trying to throw the ball like as he's

basically horizontal like in the middle of the box. I'm sorry. I was told to check it.

Doesn't matter whether I'm upright, sideways, laying in down. I was told to check it. Yeah, I know it's crazy to say that four picks look good. I given the circumstances and given that it's Arkansas State, I was kind of impressed. Louisiana Tech put an 80 burger on the board.

Did you learn if Sunny Cumby knows about the off switch? I think Danny got got, uh,

Danny got eyes on that one. Probably on Sunny Cumby? Yeah. Yeah. He's got that one covered for a pun for the review. Our friend Robbie Cowland was on site for Maryland 62. Nothing went against Hampton. Again, his report. I'm sure certainly in just a little bit. I do remember his one note is that denim mini skirts are back. I'm not going to get a patrol. I'm confirming or tonight. All right. Sac State punted. Let's go. All right. We, the great thing about this is not only

everybody in the tailgate who's continued to hang around, rocking and rolling. It is the fact that we continue this conversation. It doesn't stop now. So Saturday nights as you've just heard,

we crack our skulls open. We pour out every single thing that we've seen, taken, thought,

heard, whispered, texted, otherwise. But then we get to pull it all together. We get to watch some of what we didn't get to see. We get to follow up on the press conferences, the press clippings, and some of the insider information that we're able to gather. Then on Monday, we come back with a pun for the review. Now, because it is a Labor Day Monday, we're going to try to accommodate your plans and to ours. We're going to bump up about one hour, 10 a.m. Eastern time for a pun

for the review this Monday. Then after that, a very busy Tuesday as we go from week one into week two, where we will get a chance to react to the Monday night game. Of course, Monday will react to Sunday, and also look at the new AP top 25 after the show and so much more. Big game breakdown. That's right. We're going to be simultaneously in the same day wrapping up week one and previewing week two. We put it in. We hold your hand so that you don't have to worry about getting dizzy through all

of the craziness that is the opening of college football season. If you're watching along live, we do really appreciate it. It feels so, so good to be back, Rayman. You're right there. Dan, thank you so much to you as well. Thank you, SDF87, and so much more. Nick, UGA, you had a good day, and yeah, drop your triple zeros. Everybody, if you stand with Western Michigan, drop that, drop that zeros on the clock. We are back in deed. You can hit the like. Yeah, and hit the like before

you hit the exit. Good. Well, tag line. Let's go. You can follow him on Twitter, Tom Friddle, you can follow him at Plateau 3. You can follow me at ship on score Patterson. Gentlemen,

thank you very much. Actually, there's one second left.
