The Locker Room - CFB Week 11 Picks: Will LSU, Lane Kiffin HANDLE Texas, Arch Manning + Can Missouri UPSET Georgia?
1h 41m 29s
The transcript is a compilation of multiple podcast segments, primarily centered around Walter Isaacson’s new show *The Builders*, which explores the future of AI and its implications for human control. A core theme is the fear that digital intelligence may outpace biological intelligence, prompting deeper inquiry into who will shape the future. Interwoven with this is a personal narrative about Isaacson’s brother David, whose battle with pancreatic cancer inspired a vulnerable, honest podcast about mortality and legacy. The content also includes segments on other podcasts, such as *Get Worse with Kyle Pru*, which promotes extreme or rebellious behavior, contrasting with more constructive self-improvement content. Additionally, the discussion on college football delves into leadership failures, scheduling decisions, and playoff dynamics, highlighting how conference strength—especially the SEC—shapes rankings and outcomes. Critics point to systemic bias in the selection process, where top teams from powerful conferences dominate, despite uneven schedules. The overarching message is that the future—whether in technology or sports—is shaped by leadership, transparency, and cultural values. Ultimately, the narrative urges listeners to question who controls the narrative and what kind of world they want to live in.

Someone willing to do it and where there's a will, there's a Ford F series truck. At a phenomenal week. Ignore the four-liter board. At a phenomenal week on the 10 games against the spread. The second Josh paid, goes and starts hooting and hollering on the internet against the haters. This has to happen. I should have taken these. You should remember, remember, I contemplated on air week six. Do I just go one unit across the board? Yes. I'm very happy with myself, but no, that wouldn't have been entertaining. So I continue to bet as I normally would and I'm down like 27 units over the past four weeks. But the goal is to win, right? Yeah. That's what we all agreed upon in the free season and I am still up. Just not very big. Couple of things. We're in the entertainment business. Thank you for making this more entertaining by fall 20s since week six. You're welcome. And two, shout out you for being a competitor. You could have easily taken in me and just handled business the rest of the season. We could have not gotten it. We could be. The fact you got here is awesome. I can't wait to see it to come up. And if you ignore my red, you don't even have to ignore it. We're all within striking distance of each other. All that is is a parlay away. Don't know. Oh, no, you're right. I was just saying it was. You're margin is pretty, like your six units down from zero, but your 16 units down from like getting moving up in the podium. Yeah. You know what I mean? That's really good math. Well, you said we're all in striking distance. Yeah. So I'm like, two weeks away. Come on. You're one week away. One week away. That's true. Yeah. I did. I did. Yeah. What are you talking about? I'm one week away. One week away. This is the week, dude. I'm asking you. He's one game away. He's one game away. Any given game. He's taking the lead. He doesn't need to be Parley Willie. He just needs to be three unit Willie. He's down the middle. And count on me to just keep doing what I've been doing. Just keep you know, it's just an old Josh Bates. But it's like when is Josh, you know, all of a sudden just turn it back up. I feel like I'm one of the sprints of the chat jump right now. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He's like this you he's a fish and he can move the rope. But once it's time to score, he just can't do it. Just can't get that big win. And just doing off of this past week where a will was the winner of the one week and he was only up the one unit. So clearly was going to be the case. Just was going to be the case with the way we had week 10 of college football breaking down. It was going to be the greatest of all time. And Willie and I were on the show Monday. We were saying we feel you didn't live up to the hype. Did you feel the same way? A little underwhelmed. Yeah. Relative to the expectation, which was the Saturday of the century of the year. Yeah, it was only about a seven and a half. Yeah. And the one to Saturday of the century of the year scale. It was only about a seven and a half. But that's the thing about football when you score in threes and sevens instead of ones. Sometimes one or two plays can create a little op-sided game. I thought the way the holy war started to go early in the day, where it wasn't back and forth at all. It was totally a game of runs. It was 14 though. It was 20. Oh, it was 14. Oh, to end. Yeah. That was a good game because it was very dramatic. But then the rest of the day, Bama LSU, third, fourth quarter, late third, fourth quarter. That one starts to get a little margin. George's wood shippers, Ole Miss. So that's never a close game. You never feel like Kentucky is going to take the lead at any point on TNSD and I also think the weird thing about Notre Dame Miami is the final scores close, but it was 24/3 at one point, right? So there were big three score margins in some of those games that we all thought, you know, it was unlike the marquee for the headline games, but I'll tell you what it did deliver. And like, I'm not even joking when I say this. You know how you find yourself weirdly glued to some games on a big Saturday? Yeah. For some reason, like games draw your attention, you think I'm going to say Michigan, Michigan State. I actually did watch every snap of that game. But I'm talking about A&M South Carolina because LaNorris went down. He went out. He goes and gets X-rayed.
I'm getting sad techs from people, they don't need to be named, but I'm getting sad techs. - Sure. - And then he comes back in, because I thought he was done for the year. - Same. - Like legit. He wouldn't get x-rayed and then chain beamer's got the somber look on his face, which if you read through the somber look is, we're done. We don't have QB1 anymore. Then he comes back and he's like full byron left which mode on the way to the end zone. And then as soon as he crosses the goal line, he's like dragging a bloody stump of a foot across the goal line and then he scores and then he needs help get to the sideline. Entertainment. - It's pure cinema. - It all comes back down to South Carolina. - Pure football man. - Lenora Sellers, I have no idea what his NFL career is going to be all that, but he will be a legend forever. - He is a legend. - That's South Carolina. - He is a legend in college football. - Anybody else smell embossed in college plus 29 and a half versus no other days? - Coleman wouldn't stop talking about on the stream last night. - Look at that. We can't do it. We can't do it. We can't do it. It's the game pot deep stage. What is it? - He's going all the way up. - I was watching the Monday show. I thought you guys did a great Monday show except I had one bit of feedback. And that is JP is back there. He hasn't interjected himself like he's waiting for his moment and then South Carolina game comes up. And you can tell he's sitting on about a 90 second to two minute, just hardcore substantive take as only he can deliver on Lenora's and the comeback and the touchdown and the escape with a win and he starts. And then out of no worth Boston college underdog of the week, right? I've done it to you and they never came back to him and I just said it for him. - I'm just wondering why you just bought a boss, somebody asked JP something so he starts going, but I'm like, looking, I'm like, hey, my dog, I'm like, what was this thing? Oh. And then it gets, we talk about it enough to where you get on it too. You start talking about that to where you started off. - I just hit the trail off. - Yeah, and then you trail off and get into the Notre Dame Boston college. You're going on here and I'm like, Boston guy, he might smell on that and you're like, yeah, I mean, I'm coming down. Because I didn't really know what happened. Josh was like getting hijacked. He sent like a funny text, but then I finally saw JP. He like posted something that day before about Josh talking about Lenora's sellers and the gamecocks. And that's what made me laugh that much harder about, you know, hijack in the whole situation because JP you could just, you're ready to go. Josh just said it perfectly though, almost word for word. Now I would have said it, but it hits better on Arkansas, Arkansas, Arkansas, Arkansas. Exactly. That's why I'm there to be like, go ahead, say it. Like nothing to say. We got Arkansas. - They're alive. - We saw them play. - I always said to JP was when I saw Lenora's go down and that hit. I thought the same as everybody else, oh, the season's over. He's done. I don't think his legs even touched his body anymore. It wasn't. And then watch him come back on the field. He talked about it right before too, and I was like, you're like, he's, he'll come back. He said something all in those lines. I'm like, he has to. He has to. He knew that. - He knew it. - Let's take a look at it. - I wanted to go back on because you were touching it. Man, did you not think BYU was just going to take control of that game after they went down 14 nothing? - Yeah. - They came back and I'm like, oh, BYU's, they woke up. They're ready to go. - Yeah, because you told your start, shit. Now I'm going to lay a little bit. Couldn't get the ball. They couldn't push the ball down field. They're like, stop trying to run the ball. I started a picture and we were like three more weeks down the road. The committee is ranking Brigham Young top four or something like that on Selection Sunday. They won the big 12. The whole stat is, since they went down 14 to nothing to Utah, Brigham Young has the little length. - Yeah, yeah. - Because it felt like they got slingshot past ends. And then it was like, you just melted away. Four turnovers. It's me. You threw that one at the goal line. It was wide up. Hell of a play by that Utah line. The one where he throws in the state, he comes out of nowhere. - The backer's kind of sitting there and he just jumps in glass. - Oh, okay. We're talking about a different one. - It was like the last one for them to go up. The last pick that he threw. - Yeah, dude. He threw it. Which is four. He threw it. - That was like six for six. - I was like, he's second half. - He could have been worse than four. - Yeah. He was throwing some lights out there. There was very much Michigan versus Minnesota feeling where the stat line didn't show how bad it really was. - You've been, you've been pretty direct when you're feelings about Michigan this week. - Yeah. - More direct publicly than I've heard you ever? - My voice can be real quick. Let me show you something. See you right there. That's a Lucy espresso. Right back there. It goes up to 12 milligrams. You can eat an extra cake. You can have it. I mostly use it to walk in, whether I'm traveling around the country, doing multiple podcasts of the day, hanging out with Josh Payton, the fellas as we break down college games. This is the stuff I reach for day in and day out. Pre-workout, post-workout, morning, noon and night. It's all the same to me. It's absolutely incredible. Do me a favor and recognize this. Lucy independently owned. All right. Family operated. That's a big tobacco brand playing dress up. That's what I love about Lucy. Right now, you're going to Lucy.co/lockroom or use code locker room for 20% off your first order. Here's a little fine print for you right now. Lucy products are for adults of legal age, every customer is age verified. Warning. This product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an intuitive chemical. Let's get back to the episode. - If there's a million times more digital intelligence than there is biological intelligence, it's hard to imagine humans being in control in that scenario. I'm Walter Isaacson, host of the new podcast, The Builders. Right now, we're living through an AI arms race. So I went directly to the people shaping that future. Elon Musk, Derio Ammanade, Alex Carth, Feifei Leap, Almar Lucky, because I wanted to understand what the most consequential builders believe, what they feel, and where they think this is all headed. Silicon Valley is always saying the cliché thing about the way to predict the future is to create it. Well, yeah, it's up to us. But when you say us, who's us? Is it 400 people that you know in Silicon Valley? Is it me down here in New Orleans? They're brilliant, controversial, and they're already shaping the future. The question is, who's imagination do we want to live in? This is going to determine the fate of nations and economies and the future of humanity. Listen to The Builders, on the IHOT Radio app Apple Podcast, or ever get your podcast. First thing I hate about Ulysses is they never actually tell the Turks. I'm Dave, and I've been an ass for my life. In October 2021, my brother, David, was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. A year later, he convinced me to make a podcast with him, this podcast. We didn't know what we were doing, so we just started recording. We discussed cancer, and we talked openly about the fact that David was going to die. My brother, David, is the story of the last chapter of my brother's life. It's weird and messy and vulnerable, and I'm going to share all of it with you. The constant back-and-forth battle about how do I not just be alive, but actually live. Listen to my brother, David, on the IHOT Radio app Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Of course, with Kyle Proo is not one of those podcasts. So if you're interested in getting thinner, going to therapy, starting peptide, setting boundaries, taking supplements, making your better getting closer, then I would humbly recommend other podcasts. But if you're interested in blackmail, love bombing, cloning yourself, or getting revenge, then we've got a little something-something for a dastardly individual like you. Take a listen to some of the incredible advice we've given so far. Fake a back injury, get the spray tan, up your alcohol consumption, only women should be allowed to have guns. Kill them. Kill them. Kill them with a gun. Listen, it's already over. I'm all about lying if it's something that really happened. The next time a bear is running at you, you just calmly stop what you're doing, you look the bear in the eye, and you say, "This isn't you." Do not preserve relationships. You don't need them. You only need one thing, and that's the get worse podcast. Listen to get worse with Kyle Proo on the IHOT Radio app Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, it's Alec Baldwin. This season on my podcast, here's the thing I'm speaking with more artists, policy makers and performers like actor Stephen Root. I think for me to be any good or for any character actor to be any good, you've got to put enough of yourself and your empathy for people in it. I'm a people-water. You see that guy going down the street and go, "Yeah, I can use that." Open igloo co-founder, Alia Muhammad. I love staying on top of what is going on in our city. What is going on in city politics, what is on renter's minds, and taking all of that knowledge to build a platform that hopefully is going to make New York City better in the long run. And actress and singer Melissa Erika. Partnership took on a whole other meaning when I started making my own work. It's like you with a great actress or actor. It was best to come out of your trailer full of life and just face another person who's full of life and don't talk. Listen to hears the thing on the iHeart Radio app Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. But like in my head I'm like, "Okay, like clearly this is not the way this should be going. We are way too talented to be this non-competitive on the opposite side of the ball. Defensively we might be a word-champage-hip caliber, so there's no doubt about it. And the more I thought about it I was like, "Dude, this has nothing to do with the players. Like the players from a talent standpoint is there. It's the leadership. It's the culture of this coaching staff that just clearly doesn't understand. No.
Understand doesn't understand doesn't understand Bay 10 football, which is like kind of like the entry point, but also like What it means to be in a school like like Michigan where you have a trophy game Paul bunny like all all the things And then like I don't think we have any more trophy games this year, and it's like dude You have the most important game at the end of the year to where it just seems like He's checked out. I a club. I did get a call from somebody at Michigan about the whole house thing Someone did call me like hey if you ever have questions about that we can tell you the truth I'm like, well, all right, but you know When he has it allegedly when he I'm hasn't bought a house there yet because hit like he hasn't found one But yeah, that's what I've heard so is that not true? No, I've heard the only thing that I heard was They haven't bought a house Jason Beck hasn't bought a house apparently Jason Beck did buy a house, but I was kind of checked out Yes, no, so my statement was correction on the buy-in of being there. Yeah, you haven't even bought a house yet. I mean this are you even actually bought? Yeah, I think that that's why I'm saying am I wrong? Is that feeling wrong? Is someone up there telling you? Oh, no, man. He's purchased these old roots. No, no, they're saying the the reason why he doesn't bought a house is because he hasn't found one Then he likes or his wife hasn't found one Because the whole car there was all the market Yeah, exactly, but dude when you get like I'm sure you've gotten text about Michigan as you get text by every single university I've gotten text from a bunch of people being like it's like I said I texted one individual is like is it as bad as it seems? Worse worse than it says. It's a worse than it seems over there So to me being as publicly like frustrated with the football team I'm not thinking about My happiness right now. I'm thinking about my children's happiness I'm thinking about generations like if we if you're a fan of Michigan and you've dealt with all the hate and everything for as many years Some of it you should have gone the last coach. You said all the things. It's like we need to get on a track where Who's our coach for the next 20 years? Not what do we do with this guy because the buyouts this much and the repaying the next like clearly This is just not good enough like it to anybody standards. No one thought this is the worst case scenario This is worse than the worst case scenario from anybody's expectations going this year. How non-competitive this football team is yeah And it has nothing to do with the players. This is coaching. This is leadership. This is instilling culture and it's just not there Don't you feel like if they go to Oregon and win this week it actually happens in spite of the staff It just happens because of the player right the problem with that is I find myself in the tug of war of like long-term The better thing for Michigan long-term is to losing its organ which sounds ridiculous as a fan Yeah, I feel like it's already kind of written a little bit But okay him with him leaving or him leaving or him getting fired like I like Being in your spot. It's almost like oh You're gonna kind of have a one-night stand with this coaching staff. It's no doubt and there you get to go find somebody else You go get to go find somebody else that you could potentially get for 20 years long and if I had the conversation with him because like to me Winning him is a good coach I'm not gonna take his sample size of the school that I went to him and just define him as a coach because he did have a lot Success at Utah like he probably understands the holy will holy war in totality He understands the culture of Salt Lake City all those things like He's had so much success there that I don't want to take the way here. It just does not work here Yeah, I might be when you're like hey, it's probably it's probably not gonna work out It's like yeah, you're probably right either Hill walk away or someone will tell him to walk away at the end of this year But my fear is what if it doesn't? Or I'm like there needs to be a definitive because if you go and beat Oregon you have three games left you have Oregon You have UCLA and you have Ohio State. Yeah, Juggernaut schedule. It's almost like the boys sit in the living room It's like easy gonna tell her that she's kind of overstayed. Yeah, but then like oh shit. She's staying for another Week or two right and we got to get her up outy and we've been around those guys We've probably been those guys a couple of times where we have to grow over all the guys like why is this girl? Yeah, they see it. Yeah, you know what I mean like we see it we do yeah because because when he got hired Everybody loved it's like you had so much fun at the beginning Yeah, but now you've gotten to know him a little bit and it just ain't like okay We need this to kind of move on right and we got to find somebody else and he gets up on the podium right? John's time. Yeah, it's exactly You will become us. We will not become you and it's like oh my god. What a bar especially with this guy with the culture now I'm like seems kind of fucked up now. Yeah, that we became you. I don't like that at all that we became you at all because The last coaching staff clearly like the DMs attacks the not being focused We were competitive Offensively. Hey, I'll tell you I'll say this Sherone more million different flaws. I don't doubt the dude love Michigan. Yeah, I don't doubt the dude wanted to embrace Michigan He embraced a lot of other stuff, but like at least that part that I want like it might invite you over to my house And I say hey, the one thing is like we take our shoes off in this house. You get two options Well a normal human has two options. You either take your shoes off or you just say Oh, I'm actually gonna head home. I appreciate the invite. I'm a head home Yeah, you don't just continue to walk in there and then when I say hey Taylor man, I actually take your shoes off You're like oh take your shoes off. All right. There you all go with this taking the shoes off Yeah, that's kind of how it works here also added bonus. I paid you eight million dollars to come over to my house So respectfully take your shoes off for a limb. That's kind of the way it works. Yeah, unfortunately. I have to pay you to leave - yeah Yeah, yeah It's a weird relationship the one and what a unique way to kind of spin it But you're right dude like this motherfucker just won't take his shoes off Like you're gonna come in here here to track that you knew I'm gonna germs on the bottom of your shoes right now And I have a three-month-old at home and that was not taking a long haul He's he's not even talking about the importance of the shoes being taken off no like your the tradition of why we take the shoes off And at you because you would even suggest he take the shoes off. Yeah. Yeah There's a good Michigan. He's got a good man. He's got to go. I mean he needs to leave I don't like what I'm doing either, but I'm not thinking of like Listen, you're gonna have a lot of turnovers. You'll be a lot of transfers this year a lot of good football players that I hope are at Michigan are going to leave and I can't sit there and blame them Yeah, it's like you dealt with you were said things were gonna get fixed this year after it was the way it was a year before and it nothing changed So if we go hey look at this brand new coach. I'll just insert her name Bob Chesney Bob Chesney comes in here It's like oh This is gonna make it better some of these players are like bullshit Even though he's had a lot of success like witty him had a lot of success. He was there for 20 years coach got the whole thing Dick or whoever whoever the next coach is It's very hard to look at some of these players and go we promise this time it's fixed because they're going into their third year or fourth year How can I expect them to stay so this is nothing to do with the players to me. I like those guys I've always put a lot of those guys, but that coaching staff The head coach and the offense They got a guy well in water. I was we did a segment on the show last night someone asked me How can you always be the dude who preaches half patients, but yet you're calling for Michigan to move on from this guy in year one? It's a good question. They're right. I've never done that before. I've never I've never called for some coach to lose his job in year one It's a further the point like you said. I got all the respect in the world for Kyle Wittyham's career. Yeah, I don't know him personally I don't think I've ever had a conversation with him So I only know from a distance what he's done and what he's done is pretty incredible at Utah So I want to walk that fine line of calling it like it isn't Michigan without denigrating the guy's whole career But the way I equated it is if you have like this this jug of milk in the fridge and you're looking at says Inspiration November 10th. Well, that was yesterday. Nothing's changing that every day we go forward it just gets more and more spoiled So unless we're gonna make buttermilk which me am all used to do with expired milk We have no more use for this. I can let it sit in my fridge I can have two years more patients and I'm just gonna have a sticky fridge That's all I'm gonna have and I think this one is so clear. There's no shade of gray here to me The only shade of gray is gonna be a thing mess around and win one of these games like you said and then it leaves enough doubt It leaves enough mud in the water if you're playing a bunch of bad teams at the other year It's like okay, whatever. Yeah, you have three essentially juggernaut teams left But the hardest part of your schedule are these last three games you go and fuck around win one of these games It can trick. What do you want to flex if he wins to him? Let's say. Oh, are we He wins three of them apology to her on the show probably not Probably not The online coach hardening like he's calling plays like if he goes and just all the season ever called plays before Yeah, he goes and just does it. It's like, oh shit look at this. I Will be It's not a we don't have to talk about this. Yeah, it's not gonna. It's not gonna. What if two volcanoes were up simultaneously over a rainbow? It's never gonna happen. No, no, but maybe, but maybe Do you want to talk about this? Yeah, you did your show last night as these rings were coming out What was I think that stuck out to you the most Indiana dropped as I thought they would really you thought they would drop Yeah, so two things I think they were correcting because they had Indiana to highlight last week But also Indiana had the worst thing happened to them imaginable or series of things because even though they were off All the teams on the resume loss So there's this misnomer which I understand it being a misnomer because this whole world makes in a sense like if you're sitting at home And you're a casual fan you say how do you drop when you don't play a game? Well, it's your resume and it's entirely just being judged so a lot of teams on your resume played last week and all of their teams lost It's on the resume and if you've got a tightly compacted 4 through 10 and that'd take much for your resume change and for you to drop also Like Tennessee won
Last week, there was nothing really chaotic that happened in front of India. So I thought they were going to drop to eight, they dropped to nine. So they're like within one spot difference. Here's what's crazy. I think you could go down as far as 22 and still pay in a path for some of those teams to get in. Because Missouri still got number eight. No, no, no, they play number one and they play number 11. So if you were to beat those two teams theoretically, you could jump in. LSU can still jump in. I don't think Ole Miss can jump in. You think you think Houston could jump in? No, I think that's the crazy part. I think 22 could be alive. I think 14 could need a ton of help, only because they're capped in terms of the way they're kind of hitting that scene. So like Ole Miss, I feel the same way. Ole Miss is in front of Missouri. Ole Miss got no shot to make the playoff. I don't think Ohio State does either. I think USC does. I think South Carolina does. I think Oregon does. I think Iowa probably does. Houston know, "Wake, I still believe, needs to win the ACC to make the play." I agree with that. I was working it out in my head last night. SMU, here's the problem. You don't know where SMU is. They play SMU this weekend, but you don't know if they're 26 or 46, they're not 46, but like you don't know what kind of credit that's going to get there. Because the playoff does this screwed up thing of not showing you beyond 25, which is one of their hand behind the back sort of tricks. So I don't know what that's going to do to boost their resume, and also you can say, "Well, if they went out, but they lose to Miami." And there are only two losses, or Miami regular season, Miami ACC Championship. Maybe that'll be good to sneak in, isn't that large? Because some teams in front of them are going to lose. That's true, but if you're going to play out the scenario where a couple of teams in front of them lose, you also have to play out the equal likelihood scenario that some teams behind them win and jump them. So I don't count on them being able to get in that large spot. They don't have brand recognition, they don't have the strongest schedule, and they will not be a conference champ. So I don't know that many people are going to be speaking up in that room for them. God, they are just so on fire right now, too. You know, BYU of last year. Yeah, it would be very similar to that, I think. All the teams between 12 and 22, who you think the most likely to get in that's not in right now are? 12 to 22? Yeah, because Texas Tech, they're playing Oklahoma, what I was talking about them versus Oklahoma State. They're dogs against Oklahoma State. You just bought a Blake Forest, Houston, we feel like they're capped, and I agree with what you said. Like they're sitting at 14, the best thing in my opinion is 12 where they get bumped out by the G6. I look at Iowa, and I think it all, I think of all the rivalry games this year, and now everything's going to fall apart. Maybe the most important rivalry game the last week of the season is Iowa versus Nebraska. Always come back to take it a step further, that one of the most important rivalry games that already happened was they lost in Minnesota, or they'd already be in this thing. They lost Floyd, Kyle Wittingham, just FYI, Floyd of Rose Dale is the trophy game between Iowa and Minnesota. Yeah, Wittingham knows how to lose against Minnesota, too, and it's called the Brown Jog. I just, Iowa having three games left, I don't know if Iowa has any trophy games left. Yeah, I had them in the playoffs last week, I put Iowa in my playoff projection. What he's referring to, by the way, is the thing that I got made fun of on Monday. When I was talking about like, are there trophy games that he's like, no, he said there's no trophy, Mitch said there's no trophy games. He was saying in the press conference, I'm not sure if we have trophy. I don't know. And it's like, bro, you can't be that loser fair, even if you are, because it was, I feel like a joke, did it come, feel like a joke? Was it slap in the joke, yes, but it was just mainly a slap. And it's like, we're not going to get back on Michigan. I can say, what is it? It is clicked in my brain when Mitch was like, no, he said this and I was like, oh, you thought that you were right. And then you made the comment. Oh, yeah, that's like, dude, you know, it does feel like it does feel like a get out dude for your question. Would you say 12 through 22? 12, yeah, because it feels like a big 10 team. You think so? If so, I will probably I think it comes down to, yeah, if Oregon wins out, it also comes down to like, if USC beats in the end of like, USC's, they can be skating. They have you say that they have the schedule. Yeah, but you just jumped over the one team that, if they get, they could have the best win on this. They played Georgia next week. The best offer to Georgia, check in, check in, check in, JP Arkansas, Arkansas, Arkansas. Don't talk about Boston College, Arkansas. Got it. We'll see you next week, brother. Yeah, I'm saying best opportunity to get in in my brain, like, not that I'm hating on the Gamecox. It's just like, I don't see them beating Georgia. Sure. If they beat Georgia, then yeah, the Gamecox. They're clearly in, would you think Iowa, Iowa's your number, number one team to get in in the situation? Yeah, kind of, yeah, it's so ugly them getting in. Yeah, it is. Like, if Oregon continues to play the way that they have since firing their OCE, where they're averaging over 400 total yards and 37 and a half points, if they continue that path, Oregon's going to be like the hottest team trying to get in. Josh Bay. The other thing that we were asking last night when we were watching the rankings reveal. So BYU's at 10 right now. Which that, by the way, was kind of nuts, they only felt one slide. So I thought they'd fall more. So they're number 10. All right. If you're a Brigham Young fan, don't you start to think, I'm kind of okay if Texas Tech wins out. Yeah. They go to Dallas and let's say they lose to Utah, because maybe I still get in that large spot. This is the first time I've started to think Brigham Young could get in as an out large post post UCF loss in the same way, like if it's like if Iowa was ranked number 10 right now. Yeah. Like they just went out there. I can be the coverage champion in the same spot. But could they be finding themselves in a position where Notre Dame was similarly last year? Yes. We got to hold 10 and then the week before conference championships, all of a sudden they're 11. It's different though, because Notre Dame had the whole head-to-head thing with Miami. And like they fell behind Miami at the 11th hour. In this scenario, BYU knows they're not jumping Utah. Now, if Texas Tech beat Utah to be a mess for them. But if you're BYU, you're kind of counting on, we're going to win out. So we're not going to fall. Utah and Texas Tech are going to win out. Utah disposes of Texas Tech in the title game. So no one's like a threat to jump us. We're not going to lose a head-to-head spot over anyone. We're just going to hope Oregon or South Carolina or USC, a bunch of these teams don't race up from behind and jump us. And we lock down like the 10-seater, the 11-seater, something like that. Yeah. If this was, let's just say this was the final one, but before conference championships. Could BYU not be sitting there where the ACC, if it's not the people we think are going to win it. And it's Wake Forest. Wake Forest goes in and BYU comes out. I think BYU would drop to 11, Kentucky would be the one that drops out in that scenario. You've got to make room for your G6, which I know you love. So it would really be the top 11 there. And if they fall down, it's Kentucky, this is the top one. You think the big 12, because I could see a big 12 team getting booted two spots as opposed to a SEC team. You're saying that if they were to have to rank this in the last week, they would rank it different than they ranked it here. I think so, yes. It's very possible. Yeah. And this is all wonderful. You're saying this is the ranking. In the conference shape of weekend, there's no ranking going to conference shape each of weekend. Whoever, let's say Georgia wins the SEC, Utah wins the big 12, UCLA wins the big, like there's no crazy things that happen except for Wake Forest beats Miami. I don't think Miami falls that many spots. And I think Wake Forest jumps in and your question is, do you take out an SEC team or a big 12 team? So, and I think the answer is you take out the big 12 team. Possibly. Right. And maybe right. Also, you'd have to ask yourself. You're talking, you're talking they'll leave Kentucky in there. No, he's saying, what he's saying, and I think there's a lot of merit to this, is these are the rankings right now. Correct. But the committee ranked them that way knowing those aren't the final rankings. He's saying, if it were the actual final rankings, they may have ranked them different. Yes. Because they would put an SEC team in over a big 12 team. Yeah. Yeah. The SEC, dude, this is why every week, every slot is so important on everybody in that committee room interrogating each other about why you do the, because the whole SEC bias, which we know, like we know is that we know is present. They're going to get themselves in trouble if Texas wins out and Tennessee wins out. Because at what point when you're looking at the rankings, it's like, when are you going to put Alabama and Tennessee in the same pod in the same conversation? Because that is where the head to head matters. If Texas wins out and Tennessee wins out, like, all you're going to be doing, you have BAM all the way up at three. Then once they enter the pod conversation, that's where it's like, the head to head matters to where you're going to go Texas, you're going to go Tennessee, you're going to go Alabama. And then what you're going to push, UCLA, noted it, somebody's going to get pushed to where it's like four out of the top five in the CFP is going to be SEC teams. That's where it, to me, it's like, you're going to get yourself caught. And then the BYU only dropping one spot. We're kind of asking ourselves questions, okay, if it's the last final ranking, are they going to get an SEC team in there? That's why every ranking matters every week. All the positioning, all the posturing, all the, hey, we got to be prepared for this. We got to be prepared for that. Alabama did also win. So now they're up at three when they had no business being at five last week. True, but we have to live in the reality of them being at five and because of that, and they're when it gets out. No question. Do we have three based on the original rankings? But you still want to talk about how it unfolds every week. Yeah. It does happen. It's like, listen, they got themselves in this bind in week one when they put those dudes at five. Yeah. I agree with that. And it feels like Alabama, Tennessee and Texas, three different girls you're talking to. And they're all about to find out about it.
each other. Because now you're overcorrecting with UCLA, which is like, if UCLA was in that slot last week, Bama wouldn't be number three right now because UCLA would have moved up. If they wanted to overcorrect on Indiana and be like, oh, oh, they just got beat on the couch by 14 this weekend. Let's move them down to nine. Joshua, this will be unpopular. It's not popular to praise the SEC. Correct. It's not popular to defend ESPN or praise the SEC or defend the committee. You can't do those three things right now. It doesn't matter if there's logic behind what you say, people just want to wave a pitchfork in your hand in your face. If there's a million times more digital intelligence than there is biological intelligence, it's hard to imagine humans being in control in that scenario. So I went directly to the people shaping that future, Elon Musk, Dario Amade, Alex Carth, Fei-Fei Lee, Palmer Lucky, because I wanted to understand what the most consequential builders believe, what they feel, and where they think this is all headed.

Listen to here's the thing on the IHR Radio App Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. So there is a path here where LSU loses to Texas Saturday, which we're going to talk about in a little while, and LSU is going to Neal and next week is an unranked team. What I was asking myself on my show last night is, is there enough meat left on Tennessee's bone schedule wise to where they have the capability of drawing to within X number of spots of Alabama? If they do, they'll jump them, I'm wondering if they have enough springboard in the schedule now. LSU beats Texas this week. LSU is going to go to Neal and next week is probably a top 15, at least a top 15 team. And if you think top 15, they'll jump pretty high. LSU will jump cause they'll finally have a quality win on the resume. They don't have one right now. They're not even even top 25 because it goes back to LSU's 21 right now. Yeah. I mean, Texas Tech's not going to go anywhere where they're at. Way forth is not going to go nowhere. Yeah, those don't mean you're talking about that. Yeah, I know. I'm thinking they might not be a, if LSU beats Texas, they're going to be top 15. Maybe the highest thing you do is 18. No. No way. Good. I mean, just think about it. Texas Tech makes sense. All the. Okay. Take steps away. That's a problem. Okay. That's a rain to matchup. They have to stay where they're at. You're thinking in terms of placement. And I'm telling you, when they just go back and assess that from scratch next week, whether you believe they do that or not, they will find a way, maybe even justifiably. I'm not even saying this would be wrong. I'm saying, if LSU adds a win over number six on their resume, that to this point has no ranked win on it, I don't think they will springboard above a bunch of teams, even if those teams win. Just the way it's going to be. I'm supposed to check. Above week four. They'll have an island. I'm not necessarily saying that high. I'm saying, you need to be the top 15. So those, I'm assuming those four teams, they would go above Iowa. They'll go, yeah. I think so. I think they would go possibly above organ. Organ may be jumping along with them. If organ beats Michigan. When are you going? Actually, they may jump. Yeah. You know what? The more I think about it, that'd be a three loss SEC three loss big 10. We've already got a lot of comparative stuff out there. Like Houston is a two loss big 12 ahead of two loss big 10 USC at 18. So yes. Just crazy. I think they would jump. So you're telling me the committee goes from scratch. They pull all the ornaments off the trailer and they're reading this though. They'll have them positioned for this some of these three loss scenarios that are still out there. They will have them positioned, especially going into Tennessee LSU, which could be a doer. That'll be a doer die game for both. So you're okay. So what we're saying is LSU beats number six Texas. They will find themselves in the top 15. That's a statement that both of you sign off on. Yes. So in that scenario, they will be playing Tennessee for a playoff bid. Not Tennessee's life may not be on the line there. They would still be on the bubble if they lost. What I'm saying is to go all the way back to the original point, if Tennessee is playing number 14 LSU instead of unranked LSU and they beat LSU, that's when Tennessee spring boards up enough potentially to get into that comparative pod conversation. It's where the committee shits down their leg. That's why we did not. That's why I think that Texas LSU beat Miami of last year. But the difference is Notre Dame Miami potentially included a team dropping out of playoff. This would just include a team dropping from whatever to whatever. But my point was going to be, look, Utah goes to Arizona this week. Utah's got loosable games left. So does UCLA. Notre Dame's in a situation where they could get jumped because they don't have quality games left, but they're safe in the playoff as long as they win. What I was saying with the SEC thing is people need to get comfortable with the idea that if Texas and Tennessee and Alabama and Georgia and then maybe someone else jumps up there, there is just a world where like three or four of those top six or seven spots are SEC teams. Because that's just the way the things shook out this year. Like the big 10's not vintage big 10 this year. Their two representatives are UCLA and Indiana. That's a crazy headline. They're more big 12 contenders right now. Two teams. It moves extremely, the ACC's dropped the ball fantastically. They have one legit contender here in Miami. That's it. Florida State sucks. Virginia Tech hasn't done anything. Clemson hasn't done anything. So like people want to get mad at the committee because I got all these SEC teams up there. The SEC is the best conference in the country this year and other conferences have dropped the ball. At some point, you went out of contenders to mix in there. Not popular to say. I mean, you're not wrong, but it's almost like it's the pre determining of how some things are going to shake up. That's why I'm always like every slot matters because, again, not a lot of it makes sense. It's like when Bama beat LSU over the weekend.
It's like, that was a chaos scenario where you could have like six, seven, three loss SEC teams. It's still there if LSU goes and beats Texas, then it comes down to LSU, what if LSU then beats Tennessee? Like you're still gonna have a lot of those teams sitting in that top 15 right now. - That's the one. - That if LSU beats Texas and then beats Tennessee. LSU Tennessee, Texas, all three losses, that's the one. That's the path right there. - Yeah, but if you go off of-- - You don't have to do all those teams make it. - If LSU beats Texas and Tennessee, is LSU Texas, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, all in? - It depends on how these teams look. That's where it's like, when I, when I side with the SEC is the toughest conference, like it'll depend on what the rest of the field does, because if you would have had, it's like, dude, over the weekend, if Ole Miss, rate number 10, would have beat Georgia. - That's a good one. - Who was number two, Ole Miss would be sitting in the top four. - Yes. - Notre Dame just did it in 11 beating one, but they dropped Miami down to seven. They put Notre Dame up at five. Like, I get, like once it's, like to me, the co-conference conversation is like a tie breaker. It's like, okay, if you have a two loss SEC team, versus another two loss, any other conference team, I kind of like the SEC, I do like the SEC team more, because they are the better conference. Like they have better teams in the SEC. - They have better resumes. - But it's like the way, the way it just doesn't shake out, like it would for the SEC, is you'd have Georgia, you have Utah, UCLA would have been bumped up if they haven't correctly ranked last week, because now they move them all the way up to four over a win at Minnesota. Like if they would have already been sitting up there, they would have been three. Maybe you're not dropping Indiana down as much, maybe they knew who knows, but Notre Dame would take up that four slot, and then you could still comfortably put Miami, who's only a one loss team. Well, we've all said is the number one team in the country all year, you could put them at five or six to where you have Bama, Texas, Tennessee, all these teams who have beat each other in that pod conversation. To where it kind of shakes out more, it's all subjective, but fairly. - One other thing about Indiana, the reason I'm not gonna get mad at them dropping is they refuse to schedule tough out of conference, and everyone gets mad about it. Pretty much everyone agrees about that in May and June, but you get so focused in horse race, blinder kind of mode in the season, that people forget they control a lot of that, 'cause they did not schedule up, which is your prerogative, but you're not gonna get any credit whatsoever, whereas some of these other teams, even though they scheduled what ended up being bad P-4 teams out of conference, they made the effort to schedule them, instead of scheduling Howard, whoever that dude is. So that's why Indiana, it's one of the reason Indiana's down, the other reason is 'cause the crux of their conference schedule has not carried the weight that you would think a big 10 conference schedule would carry its weight. - Yeah. - I'll tell you what though, kind of, it's like the line was at seven and a half, and I'm like, "Why are we giving Indiana?" You give me seven points, they're gonna win by a score, but it's probably gonna be more than seven and a half, but now, with that, after these rankings just dropped? - Oh yeah. - Yeah. - How many? - I'm ready on that. Well, listen, we gotta talk about that game anyway, we might as well just go right to it. - Oh, they're game Saturday? - Yeah. (laughs) - We interrupt this episode to bring you neutral, neutral taste grade tastes so much better than what else is out there. It's made of real vodka and real juice, that's what makes it delicious. It comes out of variety of flavors, like pineapple, watermelon, new flavors, like lime and strawberry, and it's perfect for social occasions, because it's such a crowd pleaser. Think on the beach with friends, add an outdoor bar on the lake, add a music festival. Doesn't matter the occasion, it is the perfect time of year to grab a 12 pack of neutral for the beach, or grab a bucket deal in your favorite bar to celebrate summer and root on your favorite team. Neutral, keep it tasty. - Get in the air and get in the way. - Yeah, you buy a penalty. - Indiana drops as many spots as they did. - They're at home, they're playing USC, USC, coming up a massive win against Ohio State. They're famous by seven and a half points, and the total net game is 50 and a half. Both teams coming off of buys. - Yeah. - I think we all have the kind of the same thought process here about Indiana. You give me them seven and a half points, way too many based on what we've seen, but then you put in big nerdy, coming off of buy, USC, how they look when they have to travel to the Midwest, Eastern time zone. - Eastern time zone. - Then the committee taking Indiana who was comfortably sitting at four and dropping them five spots to nine, I don't really care who the quarterback's gonna be. I don't care if it's gonna be Hoover, or the kid that came over to possibly just become a coach and wanna sit there and learn and have them be thrusted into a playing spot, this defense is gonna suffocate USC, in my opinion. This is gonna be similar to Wisconsin, like Wisconsin, the way they made J. De Maava feel in that game, they don't have, I don't think they have a player on their team that could start on this Indiana defense. And that's where I don't, I just don't see a world where USC can move the ball. It's at home, they're pissed off and they're kind of seeing that, oh, we have no room for air anymore based on the way people are reviewing the Bay 10. So I'm gonna take Indiana minus seven and a half, I'm gonna put four units on that. - Four. - Yeah, well, I gotta swing the base that we are talking about. - You do, yeah, yeah. - So don't worry about my numbers and don't put it in your pockets. - Yes sir, yes sir. - Yeah, I appreciate that. To me, everything you just explained, the 50 and a half right there, I'm gonna go under, I'm gonna go under, I'm gonna go three units. I get like the whole swing from four to nine and they don't schedule anybody and who is Indiana beat? I agree with what everybody's saying. There's just a part of me that knows, signetting the way he talks about margins in a football game to where it doesn't matter how it looks, this is the most comfortable team in a one-score game in the country. They'll find a way, no matter who it's against, they're always gonna find a way. Like they were what, two inches away from beating Ohio State, but it doesn't matter who it is, but they are so comfortable in the fourth quarter, they are so comfortable in situations that they have to have. I like Indiana, it's like, yeah, I watch them offensively. Do I think that they can win the national title? Part of me is like, oh, it doesn't look like it. It looks like there's several teams who are better than Indiana. But then I look at any team who's up at the top tier, the SEC or Miami Notre Dame. If they have to play Indiana, and I'm like, man, it's gonna, I don't know how it happens, it's gonna be a one-score game, and part of me just likes signetting those situations. So when it comes to this game, I'm gonna go under, I'm gonna go three units on under 50 and a half. Under 50 and a half, three units. Yes. Under 50 and a half, five units. Whoa. I love it, you like it. I love it. Was only gonna go four, but you talked me up to five. It feels like it's a game, it's like a pucker bowl. It's really like a pucker bowl. Both teams know I didn't think Indiana would be saying this, but it feels like both teams know their playoff life, maybe on the line. USC knows the last time they travel, they got completely shut down by Wisconsin. I think they know it's a razor-thin margin for error game. I think they're gonna play it tight. I also think they understand I'm playing an Indiana team that is no threat to pull away from me. So I don't have to score on every drive. It's gonna be a couple of explosive plays. Hope we can get to 24, and then hope that they look the way they have so far this year. And then on the Indiana side, I just trust the defense. They've known we got to win games defensively all year, but I just think the overall nature, like the tight, children nature of the way that game's gonna feel. It's so final, like it's so urgent, and I don't expect a lot of chances to be taken. I feel like it's gonna be a one-possession game. Model likes USC, by the way. I just don't trust 'em. I don't trust 'em on the road here. There is always the chance that one of these teams just crowbars offensively, and either of those scenarios would work for the under. So I love under 50 and a half. I thought it'd be more like 46 or 47 to I love 50 and a half. - Pop me eight four units. Pop me to four units. - All right, put me on the under. - Put me on the under, I'm gonna be serious. You cannot be serious. - Put me on the under, put me on the under. Pop units. - What the fuck? - What the fuck? - What the fuck? - What the fuck? - I love that. Yeah. I do. - What is happening? - What is happening? - I love him being in the situation, however. - Take him. - No, I'm no. - You guys, when you said the unders are down like, bro, he's so, right? Like when's the last time? - And then you slap the table and he says, "I'm just for games." - He's like, hey Sam. - How's the first four games for Indiana? Has, have they ever been over 50 points? - I know August, I just made the argument. - I just made the argument. - I'm talking to him. - While you guys are saying, I'm like, "Oh, he's just 100% right?" - Hey, piggyback to yourself. - I have a, look at that house on the hill. Let's move in there. - I'm going to move in there too. - It's my house. - No, dude, it's our house. - You are kind of winning here. - My house. - You are not winning here. - Oh my god. - Whoa. - Damn. - Oh. - Take five. - I thought we had traditions. I thought we had traditions. - Traditions. - Traditions. - I can't, I can't piggyback. There's been multiple piggybacks this year. - Go ahead. - Go ahead. - Think about it. - Think about it. - You're like, hey, back's up to me. - I'll do that. - I'm going from a different pick for unit to, I gotta slap the table on. - Can I go four units, Indiana, my seven half, plus the under? - Yeah. - Do five on it. - Slap the table. - Slap the table on that. - Wait, wait, what's the pick? What's the pick? - I think I've got a bigger fucking house now. - What the hell is that? - I've got big ass house. - What do writers got? - State economy. - Indiana, minus seven and a half. - Yes. - Plus the under five units. - What is that? - Imagine. - He's building a public place. - Were we allowed to do that all year? - We were allowed to parlay these all year. I thought we were just picking straight. - Look at that. - Thank you, all right. - Oh my God. - I'm the man. - I just didn't know we could do this all year. - Yeah. - I thought you could. - I wish you the best of luck. - You know what's one, you know what's one team like, we all kind of just don't talk about, but I think we're afraid to talk about them because they're just clearly above everybody else's Georgia. - Yeah. - I think that's the, we're walking towards it very boring college football player.
team lost the Auburn, but they lost the Auburn look at all of us. But why is it just a fluke for Georgia when anybody else loses it's like because they've done it before they've done it consistently and everyone just kind of go where we're we're we race losses though with all these SEC teams look at that look at that it's just the SEC I know Indiana lost a game against the Battle Ohio State team you know that yeah now that's something you know that we're gonna be on a bit loose to UCF you know that it's just the SEC we wipe it click that got to you who actually I don't know because it's supposed to be deep state SEC and your anti SEC but I'm also they are the most competitive conference competitive but are they the best we'll find out with the national title right yeah like that's like how are we counting you who's gonna be like yeah a lot of good ball in the SEC not a lot a lot of great ball though it just depends on how you look at it man like there is greatness like what where are you gonna have I would love where are you gonna have Kentucky this week in your top or they they they they were number three in your for commissioners poll you mean like right mission or poll I gotta wait till Thursday yeah yeah for that had them propped up we're a top three team in the country I think they belong to bank they were overrated well that no they were properly rated I'll react they're properly rated in like you know it's like six to eight five day range or something you give when you're when you're saying this one loss Kentucky one loss any team I'm gonna put them in a spot over all the other one lost teams in three years you're part of you saying like you're telling them I think you are the best one lost team in the country you deserve to be ranked higher I don't think you're the best there are several teams I would pick I picked Tennessee to roll Kentucky last week I want to done that if I thought Kentucky was definitely so you can have them properly rated like hey they've had a good season I do think they're neither asked be this week no what I'm saying put them at like six what I'm saying is I don't think I should be predictive with rankings I don't think that I don't think I should put teams based that I've always said this about the committee too I think you should rank you should define first off right on this piece of paper what matters so that it doesn't come down to the subjectivity of well here's who I think's better we see the four liter board every week every one of us lose his games every week which means we're flawed like our our thinking of what's gonna happen is flawed I think it ain't flawed why it's okay how is Kentucky the number three team in the country because without without any predictive mentality like who'd you beat you know they had beaten LSU already who's LSU right now LSU right now it's not who LSU was last week because you're thinking this is this is still a damn good LSU team you're still the bias that's still good oh South Carolina just won in cocktail that's a damn good South Carolina you beat them in O.T. too still are still are good teams what what else am I supposed to go on other than what I already have seen and I supposed to go on what I think's gonna happen for rankings you gave you gave him a carrot and you took the Kentucky fans in a night like hey you guys are a top three team in the country what a crazy bedtime snack it's just one argued argue right now I don't even know what I was saying all I know is Kentucky on the top three anywhere should have never been I knew what was happening if we're gonna because it's all pre-meditated we should keep you on bias well who do you got between Missouri and Georgia right now Georgia's favorite by 15 and a half points Tonal is 47 and a half unbiased lately who you got in this one brother are you calling me biased toward Mizzou do you think I would if I was to say well it's biased towards one of these teams what team would you think I'd be I think I've had Georgia winning the SEC title all year I think I've been talking about how a team that steps foot on the grass with Georgia is running into a buzzsaw multiple times yeah I also think I have been high on Missouri because it's hard to quit Missouri because that team has the potential to do it there people are talking about Texas Mizzou lost that game last week more than Texas one I'm sitting there I'm talking to somebody inside the building of Texas like hey Willy just checking on your health after that uh Missouri Texas game I like me or here's what you here's what you need to do you need to make sure you take care of that referee for your guys is urgent recovery on that bullshit third and 10 that was crazy that you said it all that's a funnel he must have picked it up that's bullshit urgent recovery yeah urgent recovery and the field go kicker from Mizzou Texas needs to send him a care package and make him a Texas jersey with his last name on it because he missed two chipmins that he should have made like that game Mizzou had it man they pissed it down their leg and they're a team that can't play from behind and going against Georgia 15 and a half is a lot of points so I don't know I think I'm gonna go under here because I think Georgia Georgia's gonna shut like when they go when Roberts has less than a hundred yards they're one in three when he has over a hundred yards they're undefeated they're like five or six and up do I think Roberts is gonna have over a hundred yards against his Georgia Bulldog defense I don't think so so I think Georgia's gonna win this game I just don't know by how much it's like it's Georgia up 21 points in the fourth quarter semi just dials it up there at the end and they lose by 14 you know to me it's a lot of points I'm gonna go under 47 and a half and I'm gonna do it for two units because I'm not that confident on this game got you what do you got so Missouri I don't see this game where they have consistent drives so they got to do the thing where they bust a couple of explosive runs I mean it helps us through the air but they they he just said they never win if they don't run the ball effectively so they got to have some explosive runs Georgia is they've allowed one run of 30 plus yards all year so some stuff that hasn't happened to Georgia all year and he's a plus which is George the best team in the country oh god let's you got Byron Brown a quarter bag that's it he can give you problems yeah I think that I am going to go Georgia minus 15 and a half for one unit it is a lot of points I'm just asking this how much would it wreck everyone's worldview if Missouri won this game outright there'd be beautiful the one last thing that you think you know for sure and that is it's Georgia that's my north star I can count on them and if they lose that's a second loss by the way at home if they were to lose this game everything would be thrown in a blender you would truly think to yourself it's anyone's game like anyone get wait for us to win the national title at this point I have no idea what's real and what's not I don't think that's going to happen so I'm taking Georgia minus 15 and a half but I think even though this point spreads not the biggest points spread of the weekend that being the result Missouri outright if that was the result that would throw everything into the like a 2007 style blender what's your computer set about this game it right on the number Georgia minus 15 that's what it thinks the number should be oh don't let us see them as give me hope again yeah Missouri's good enough I just don't think they're on the ball I don't think they're consistent enough the this is a run first offense on Missouri they run a great outside zone but you brought up the a hundred yards if they if they're over then they win if they don't they don't George you're not running the ball versus Georgia the interior defense lineback is in their second or you get throw the ball against Georgia and the thing about their offenses is they're slow and methodical they're late to get out of the huddle they'll take forever in the time clock but they're one of the most efficient offenses in the country when the best scoring offenses in the country and they have the fewest amount of serious so they're going to have the ball so they get the ability to put their foot on the gas and go score an instant or they can sit there for eight and a half minutes and just with it like just death by a thousand times over and over again they're starting to do the ball 15 times this last game for 184 yards and tailing with tailing tailer he's a 140 of those yards like they just ever since the by-week they're just allow this other team to make mistakes and just never beat yourself I like Georgia minus 15 and a half they are the one constant I think that we all agree on is like okay Georgia's the number one team in the country the Auburn loss is what it is I'll go for units on that Friday gonna be down there we'll get lost in the pit on campus it's gonna be a great time it's good that we're all aligned on Georgia to the fan base so love that it'll be good you're gonna yell let's go Irish just for the it is due to phrasier 2 he's run the ball well there's a lot to love he loves to run the ball well there's road grading as an offensive line what do you I just don't see Missouri putting pressure on Georgia I don't either it should be a wounded animal spot for them yeah they're they're playoff life on the line this weekend it should be that it what it is that it should be it is that even then this is the reason I'm saying that is this is the kind of spot where I would typically take a double digit underdog with their life on the line and a really good quarterback yeah I couldn't find my way to do it this line you flinch at first say it I really wasn't you maybe I got too much trust in Georgia but all the things that are consistent that that carry over week to week they have right we said at the beginning of the year Kirby smart gunner stocked and dumbed a bit against them and here they are we're in November when the middle you know it almost just be like me going one unit Mizzou money line would almost just be like a value play because I'm because I'm putting two I'm putting two units on the under here right you're going for for Georgia to cover you're going how many just uh what did I go you won't want one unit like he's got a small like he's got I got a small you got a small you got a small little wee unit on this game you know what I mean like what's the that big of a separation is it there because if the scenario happens not that I think it is I don't I don't think it is, but if it does.
He turned one into five point seven. - I just did it. - Do it. - Do it. - Do it. - Close me. - Do it. - Doubt Kirby smart. - Doubt Kirby smart. - I did it last week. Dude, it does not work out. - Second home loss. - You already lost. - You already lost. There's a three touch down favorite. This is just over two. It's basically tied right now in the fourth floor. - I'm out already. - That's your home state. Have some pride. - A very pride. - Give me one unit Mizzou money line. - Yeah. (clapping) - Yeah, and I love watching people die of heroism. - It's so awesome. - It's the same thing last week with Ole Miss. It's just not working. - It's one unit. Like I'm not putting a for you in it. Like I'm not risking a bunch. - But Ole Miss, Trinidad Chambers, mobile quarterbacks. Give him absolutely expensive. They bought it back his ass. - Yeah, they did. - Yeah, I, listen. There's no part of me that thinks Mizzou's one of this game. - Right, this is one unit. - This is a, like, let me see what happens here. It's like, oh, like even a Mizzou wins. I'm gonna be like, lucky willy. It ain't gonna be, I saw something. - No, it'll be. - But I mean, it'll be. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I really doubt that. - It'll be you saw something. What do you see in Texas Tech at Oklahoma State? - You don't get this. - Texas Tech's favorite by three and a half points. So on this game is 72 and a half points. - Oh yeah. - Which game we going on with? - Texas Tech at Oklahoma State. - I feel like this is a challenge. - I feel like the over is a challenge. - Oh. - All right. - As far as you're saying, the game in general is a challenge. - Hey, my first thought when we sat down was, hey, the over, right? And then Cody, talking to 72 being away too much. - Mmm. - But I love through that. - Yeah, I think this is truly a challenge that we have to go over here. - You're gonna do it anyway? - Yeah. - Hell yeah. - Live total. Live total got up to 112 and a half. Live during their last game. - West Virginia. It's not the table, will. - No, no, no, no, no. - I got my table sapper. - You've been, you been re-rehearsed lines too much. (laughing) - All right. - Oh, Sid, I'll sit on the unit pick right now. I don't know. - All right, all right. - Yeah, this is my duty to sapper. (laughing) - Dude, you really aren't water, man. - Dude, you're getting the molded anyway. - Dude, what makes you? - Oh my god. - There's just, sometimes you get to a phrase and you say, "I'm not even wasting time on this phrase." I got my table sapper. (laughing) (laughing) - All right, I guess we'll go, Josh. - Yeah, what do you got here? - I like Texas Tech plus three and a half. I, the reason why is like clearly their defense is not what it was last year, but they still have so many pieces from that defense last year. And this game's gonna come down to given that the total is what it is, but the number is that close. It's like, "We know this is gonna be a shootout." I just believe in the idea of Texas Tech stopping Oklahoma State twice. Like, yeah, getting him to punt the ball two times. And Castlon was the way he's been able to revamp this run game. It was like 345, two weeks ago against Arizona and then over 250 against West Virginia. Like, their offense is clearly taken off of Castlon us. The defense is just taking it personal. We've been with the boys during the spring. And those linebackers, those mustaches, there's no way they're in those team meeting rooms not taking this shit personal. I think the total's definitely in play here. I just tend to believe that Texas Tech on the outside looking into the colors for ball playoffs, they know they have an opportunity to get in the playoffs. Oklahoma State, whether they want to believe it or not, they have no shot at making the playoffs. So I'll take Texas Tech plus three and a half. I'll go, I'll go four units on that. Four units, yeah. Okay, I'm gonna line up right across from you and I'll go four units, Oklahoma State minus three. Nice. Pretty easy breakdown to me. I think you've got home field, better quarterback. And that's about it. That's about all I need because there's no dominant unit. If Texas Tech's bringing a dominant unit in here, that's when it gets a little more complicated. They don't have that. And so I've already watched Oklahoma State flex at home once this year. I've already watched Texas Tech get embarrassed on the road once this year. I'm not saying they're going to get embarrassed, but I like Oklahoma State minus three and a half and I go four units on it. Joe McGuire. Show it to him. Show it to him. He's at the over who believes you. Yeah, it's never not been. I kind of want to go Texas Tech outright. You have that freedom. Do you Texas Tech outright plus the over? Yeah, do that. Five years. Do it. Do Oklahoma State? Yeah, dude, dude, dude, you're patented. Favorite minus the points. Dog money line. Because you pulled that one out last year, and I. It didn't work. It can't work mathematically. Doesn't matter. It was fun. Oh, shit. I can't remember what game it was, but it was fun. Oh, yeah, it was. Was it Iowa? Was it Iowa? I like Iowa minus three. I like the dog money line. I was so great. Oh, you know it. You think so? I don't know, but I want you to think it. Jesse, we like the over in this game? All right, I'll stay over. I'll just stay on the over. Three units. You're going to stay over. Three units. I think Texas Tech going to win, Josh. You do? Yeah. You've got that much confidence in Tommy Castolano on the road. Because then you have no confidence in him to start him originally, so, but you've got confidence in him on the road. Me and Texas Tech money line for units on a confidence, or this is where I get my margin this week. So I like it. Yeah, I'll go through units on the over. Stay over. You're just over. I'm saying just your tech money line, I'm, so this is the game. Hey, give me, give me Texas Tech plus three and a half for units. What's going on? Are you going to learn? I'm having my other show over here. Didn't you? We're doing a different show and you're right though, that was good pull by you. Texas Tech plus three and a half. Texas Tech and Oklahoma State are both, uh, seven and two to the over. Oh, shit. It is over, thinkin'. All right. What do we got here? Elon Musk, Derio Amonette, Alex Carr, Fei-Fei Lee, Palmer Lucky, because I wanted to understand what the most consequential builders believe, what they feel, and where they think this is all headed.

Open igloo co-founder, Alia Mohamed. I love staying on top of what is going on in our city, what is going on in city politics, that is on renters minds, and taking all of that knowledge to build a platform that hopefully is going to make New York City better in the long run. And actress and singer Melissa Eroko. It's like you with a great actress or actor, it was best to come out of your trailer full of life and just face another person who's full of life and don't talk. To hear the thing on the iHeartRadio app Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Wake Forest at SMU. Sleeper day in the wake. It's essentially a pick-up. Wake Forest or SMU is favored by one and a half points. The total on this game is 60 and a half points. Gentlemen, who's the first soft-toss crack at this game? The over is 80 and a half? 60. Oh, is that, is that 60? Yeah. I still, it still looks like a leader in there. He does whatever he is right now, man. Some people lie about having good eyesight. You're just brutally honest about not having good eyesight. Oh, yeah. Like you're the inverse. When I drive at night, it's terrifying. [laughter] Yeah. Uh. [laughter] You guys hear it? Just hear it. [laughter] God. I don't know, bro. It's Wake Forest. Yeah. Geo Lopez. Geo Lopez. Geo Lopez. Yes. You can trust. You're not going to look at the fact that SMU's a completely different team at home as opposed to a way by a massive margin. Kevin Jennings. We sat in the same area with Baker. We listened to him talk for 10 minutes and we were ready to run through a brick wall for a minute. I still am. I still am. I still am. I still am. Imagine being around him all year long since January 1st, transferring in there and just carrying this guy waxed poetically for 11 months, 10 months, whatever month we're in right now. Yep. I'm in no. This is Wake Forest. This is Geo Lopez. This is Statement Game. This is, hey, how are they not in the playoffs after this win? I'll think they're Moneyline Four Units. Oh, yeah. I got a P really back. Hang up here real quick. Go Tinkle. All right. Winner up this episode to bring you Jack Daniels, whether I'm at a tailgator on the couch watching Nebraska or Michigan on Saturday, Jack Daniels is a staple on my Game Day roster. I'll expand your playbook with the Cinnamon Kick of Jack Fire, the smooth taste of Jack Honey, the crisp and refreshing Jack Apple, and the only blackberry bircing with Jack personally. I love the smooth taste of Jack Honey. No matter how you stack your unit, there's a Jack for every football fan. I'll talk with the boy and I'll just like, man, Wake Forest gives you no reason not to pick them. Yep. Twin Geo Lopez, Twin Hallelujah, just been handling business, I think give you no reason not to take that. But here's the thing. Fandall knows all that and they're saying, Take away, go ahead, take away, hey, we'll give you a point now. Go ahead and take away. I know, I know, 'cause something about Kevin Jennings, dude, he beat Miami at home around this time last year. He's a high in tight cat and he can move, bro. He can. Can I tell you something? And he's at home. I know. Can I tell you something about Wake Forest's defense? You know, they put that soft zone, like we know Kevin Jennings is going to have 35 completions in this game. You know, the best team in the ACC is on defensive red zone? No, no. Wake Forest. Oh, no. That feel starts to condense a little bit. They're not going to, like, Wake Forest will not give up x-plays. They do not do that. They bend. They don't break. You get to the 25-year-old line. The field shrinks. They are the best. All of the ACC, they're top five in the country in the red zone. So yeah, like his stat lines going to be incredible, his percentages are going to be awesome. This is going to be a dog fight, but buddy, red zone, that's where it absolutely matters. Big, dicker energy. Big, dicker energy. Like, yeah, Jennings, we're not going to take away from him, like, that's a hell of a ball player. And what they lost was at Louisville early in the year. And ever since then, they've kind of, like, in the Syracuse game, obviously. No, we've all been there. Yeah. But like, two units. Two units. Okay. SMU minus 1.5. Wow. That was the opposite of everything I was just trying to say. I know. What happened? What do I say? Nothing. Fandals just in your ear, a, take a, I'll give you a point and a half. And here's the crazy part. They're whispering all that to me and I'm like, I will for four units. I'll take wake money. I don't even need their point now. I love how you think they just won the game. I ain't saying point. You know, he just got you. He just got you. He didn't get me. He played you like a fit. He didn't get me. Yes, he did. He didn't get me. He was wake boy. How they know? And then he just talked you on to it. I say a whole thing about wake forest. You agree? The whole time. No, you agree. The whole time. And then his, they're giving me points. Oh, my God. Yeah. This is SMU. And then he turns around and goes, got him four units. Wake folks. This better work. He played you, bro. Like, when you guys really ship, I'm happy you don't see it because your ship would never be the same if you did. He played himself from SMU was winning this game. I'm on his team. He can't be playing himself. Can I say that's my biggest fear that I just played myself? No, dude. That's all of our biggest. Taylor, you got it. Hey, he's got you. No. He's back a hand slot. He's made you make par lanes. He's made you. He just did four units wake force and you go, he's kind of got you in a blender, right? I said my thing first about wake forest, then he went. He agreed with me. So I shook his hand on that. And we both agreed that did you or did you not get him and Josh, he won't answer that because he got you. He doesn't want you to think he got you, dude. Comments are going to let you know. Pates got you right. The game is going to let me know. So the people watching the locker room can go back a few weeks and watch Josh Pigo, he talks me into this. I'm actually going to piggyback that. I think he used the word specifically piggyback. Hey, hey, look at our track records over the last few weeks. Who would you trust yourself for me? I don't know what I'm talking about. You've been on a roll. Willie C. You got this. Hey, that is true. You're the hottest hand here right now. Yeah. Wow. It says the quiet thing out loud. Well, good old change in one week, crazy. What changes this week between Texas and LSU, huh? LSU, four and a half points. Total nut game is 46 and a half. Teen, man. Gotta win a big game. So where you at, dude? What are you doing? I'm interested in this. What are you doing? I'm interested to see where you go here. What are you thinking, buddy? You're going to have means that Fandall would favor LSU on a neutral field over Texas. They should. OK. This is when. Well, go ahead and finish your thought and then put a pen on that. OK. It's LSU. Let's LSU. When LSU is protected, now you got to block Consumments. When he's protected, this is the most efficient offense in the country. Do they have a run game? They don't necessarily have a run game right now. When I watch Texas, Mizzou, I feel like Mizzou lost it more than Texas won it. When I watch LSU, Bama, I feel not like not the passion. I feel about Texas, Mizzou. But part of me is like, LSU kind of lost that game more than Alabama when that game, Alabama took an awesome explosive place. And when they got into the red zone, it's like, my hat's off to Ryan Grub because there's nobody stopping the creativity that he has dialed up against defenses. But as far as like in between the 20s and moving the ball, like LSU had so many opportunities and that was his name. Is it Luke Metz? Nope. When he put his face under Sam Levitt's body. Never the same. Levitt didn't know what was going on after that. I'm talking chin music and then the next play, it's fourth and three. My man's open. Balls down. My man's open over there. He can't see it because he's just days of confused from Luke Metz putting his face underneath Levitt's chin. But I like LSU. They can stop the run. They can get after the quarterback archmaning like it's the same type of shit, bro. And they're on the road in Death Valley. I like LSU. I like LSU minus 4 and a half. I like LSU for five years. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. They will. So when you said that four and a half points with they'd be at a neutral site, they would still be favored. Alabama was dogs by five and a half points. Yeah, five and a half, six and a half, something like that. Got you. LSU versus unranked teams, their defense gives up 10.2 points per game. The versus ranked teams this year is 32.7. It's a difference. That's a big difference. I agree that Texas's worst gets their ass beat by LSU, but Texas has been a better football team. They're not great in any category, except for finishing drives and they're like 94% in the red zone. That's why Alabama did a great job of that's that LSU struggles in between the 25s. They're absolutely incredible. The right tackle for LSU was not great. [BLANK_AUDIO]
it's hurt and now you got Simmons. You know about protection. That that's a huge thing. I I stare at Texas and I just think yeah Texas is gonna win this game outright but I've spent the whole year with LSU and now we're in the middle of November and I gotta I gotta stay with it. So I'll go LSU - 4.5. I don't believe in this pick at all but I'm gonna go for units because my unit size doesn't matter on my confidence. I said that before the show started. So give me LSU. Josh I've got to be really tactical here. Last week do you feel like LSU got pretty consistent pressure on Keel and Russell? He was flushed a lot. Like Keel and Russell did a ton of work last week because they got pressure on him. He had some free runners in his face. They just didn't get him down a lot. Texas is a hundred and twenty-fourth in the country and Sacks allow. So you can get to arch. They do not have a consistent offense. They have to hit some some cap buster stuff on you. They didn't last week. Ironically versus Missouri and still won but but history over the course of a season says they have to do that. We finally get Death Valley at night. I get LSU one week off going eight times into the opponent's territory and only getting in the end zone once. You got to just sit on that all week and now your backs against the wall, your life's on the line. It's wounded animal mode. You know that you could throw a wrench in the opposing offense. Texas back-to-back road here first time this year they've had that I think LSU is going to win the game but there is a lot of nervousness about laying four and a half to me. So I'm going to cowardly take LSU money line for four units. Oh no. That's kind of gay. Save it for Friday. Save it for Friday. Can't just take Texas plus four and a half. No. Because I think LSU is going to win but it just has 23 to 20 written all over it to me. I'm going money line. You know this is not me. You know I don't typically do this. I know you don't. I feel like it's my head right now. I can tell. You're on control. You don't have a lot but you just know it's for the best. It's not your favorite moment. When you get in the car after the show you know I did the right thing. If they went by a field goal I will take a shower immediately. I'll feel so nasty. Yeah. Yeah. But you know I'll celebrate in the shower. Yeah you will. I got to see so. Go ahead. What do you see? Weather. You need to keep going. Checking weather. Well but I got to see so that's all the games. That's it. That's it. I'll keep going though. Dog of the week. I'm going to think Georgia Tech plus 13 and a half versus Clemson. Not high in Clemson. And I bring tea. Him having an absolute meltdown for whatever reason. People hate on it. Kind of did it for me a little bit. So I'm going to go to Georgia Tech. Are they two in seven? Aren't they terrible? They're bad. Yeah. It's fine for people. The other man. Yeah. See I'll take them plus 13 and a half. We'll look into the up. I'll say his dog of the week. Wouldn't you know it? No. Boston college plus 29 and a half. Light down spot for another name. They're not going to lose. But Boston college is going to cover. Thank you. All right. I think Illinois is going to push US UCLA this weekend. So I'll take Illinois plus 10 and a half against the University of California. I love that. I love that pick. It's also in my my parlay this week. My parlay goes as such. Pit money line. Illinois plus 10 and a half. Miami minus 13 and a half. Wake Forest money line. The total for that game is one thousand ten. Sorry. Plus odds plus one thousand and ten. We'll still look at it up. No, I'm ready to rock. Illinois. Yeah, I gotta make an audible. I gotta call them all. It's insane. Thinking about it right now. Based on everything that was. Crazy. Let me read Josh Page weekly parlay. Just the first like Texas Tech money line. Look, a lot's changed in the last hour. So we're going to call an audible on that. What happened? Life happens. Life happens. I got in your head. I need to buy some time. So talk slow. Okay, here's what I'm going to do here for my parlay. I like Illinois plus 10 and a half and you see I like I like SMU money line. I like Alabama money line. I like LSU minus four and a half hosting the taxes long ones. In that Missouri Georgia total, we're going to bump it up a little bit and we're going to go under fifty and a half. That is all going to bring you plus eleven thirty five. Here's you will see in the fandom sports book. It was good. I'm going to keep bail or money line. I'm going to keep wait for us money line. I want to replace Texas Tech money line with Oregon at the best number I could get, which I think was eleven and a half this morning, but that could be wrong. Because it's very unprofessional for you to just bring this on. Minus ten and a half. I'll take Oregon minus ten and a half. Oh, Jesus Christ. It's a good pull. Yeah. It's not about me. It's about the future. It's about my kids. It's about my kids. All right, plus 1280, which is that what it is or it's plus whatever it is. Hey, what was it? We're using our big computer. Okay, gotcha. Gotcha gotcha. You're using big computer, big computer. It's got 42. It's good. Let's go there. What? Just hey. Is that talk about him getting your ass? It was always in the cards. What was all the SMU week fours? And I was like, oh, he got you by saying the gift and you're like, no, you never picked SMU. Well, they knew I picked SMU. Yeah. What does that mean? It means you're genius. I was having a conversation about like, hey, he got you. He fucking put you in a chokehold and you're like, no, I walked in here with the story written now. This pick before we even walked in here. The way you were playing was like, you just made the decision like that. Oh, yeah, yeah. Of course, man. The reverse double bait. If the reverse double, I can set it up. Oh, yeah. And he did. Look, he played himself. What I tell you in that too. Yeah, I know. I just tell you. Now here I am. We went in and played through my party. Yeah. Which is crazy because you did look me and I go, I'm gonna go to the opposite. I'm gonna go. I'll go in the state. I changed my mind. Can't do that. Not in this show, man. No, no, no, no, we're going money lines. Money lines on four-and-a-half plate favorite crazy week. We feel good, fellas. Any any questions from the rafters? How's that future looking, Taylor? Huh? Let's see future. We talked about the last. Oh, shit. Come on. That's your guy. I don't know. You're just waiting out there when I got here. All right. We have packages showing up out of nowhere. We have people showing up out of nowhere. What future did you take on LSU? The same Levin Heisen? I took him to the Heisen and the SEC. That's all. And I said, this week, Alabama, we get back. Hey, how's it looking? Oh, thank you. How's it looking, bud? Good. Appreciate that. Whatever. I'll be able to get rid of football. We'll see you guys next time. Big hugs, kind of kisses. Must be 21 plus in present in select states for Kansas in affiliation with Kansas, Starkisino, or 18 plus and present in DC.
