"And we are back and really looking forward to seeing a lot of Carl Reed, who's a former coach turned analyst. Where have you heard that before? Is we're 24/7. And it has a lot of opinions on some of the coaching moves that we have been debating recently. So let's talk about this with Carl Carl thanks for being a part of the show. It's great to meet you and welcome you and when we read your headline about bob petrino, got my attention in pretty much everyone's attention. I realize this is new frontier for you, but you know how to get you know how to get eyeballs to what you're talking about. Good afternoon, tell us about it. Well, I think Bobby petrino is going to be a great fit. It takes a and M. I know it's some question marks there on. But they're not hiring him to give motorcycle driving lessons, so be a marriage counselor. You're hiring them to call offensive plays. And football. And he's proven part that he's one of the best in the country at that. He is a great offensive play caller. Jimbo fishes offense at Texas saying them a year ago was a bismuth. It stumped. It was bad. So if you're gonna go hire an OC and I know they looked at Garrett Riley. They looked at Kendall bryles. They looked at Sean Lewis before he decided on Colorado. But I think it would have been really rough on some of those younger guys to be with Jimbo Fisher with the offensive background that he has. Buy people treno has the guts and the courage to stick up the Jimbo and the experience to say, hey, get out of the way and let me call this thing like you said you were gonna do it. And that's what Jimbo needed. And that's what kind of women needs is a quarterback going into the season in the SEC west and you know how tough that league is. You gotta have the stones to call plays in that league and some of those games. And people may not like Bobby petrino as a person, but they're not hiring them because of his disposition and his humanity. They're hiring them to win big time football games. Carl, I want you to explain something because you've been a coach and I'm a lowly talk show host. So let's talk about that elephant in the room. And it's easy for me to say, oh, Jimbo Fisher is not listening to anyone. But what happens in the dynamics between a very successful coach in Bobby Katrina, you're right. He'll never win husband of the year at your local PTA, but he does have a track record. How does that work when you're dealing with somebody whose ego is as large as Jimbo Fisher's? Well, I think that Jimbo has to realize that he lost a lot of football games last year and he lost a lot of support. The only reason he's probably still attached to a and M because of his buyout being with the size that it was. And so he made a change because he had to not because he wanted to. So he got some nudging from behind the scenes to bring in an offensive coordinator. So if something that needed to be done, it's something that had to be done. It's something that recruits also needed to see. You had to transfer portal so you had to worry about what guys like Evan Stewart gonna jump off the bus if there wasn't some changes made offensively. So it's something that as a leader in a coach when you evaluate your program, you have to look at those things and be honest with yourself about where you're at in the moment. And one other coaching situation that we've been talking about AD nauseum and there just seems to be a groundswell against Mike Bobo for past failures as a head coach at Colorado state and two very brief terms as OC at two SEC schools that were both terrible when he got there. What do you make out of that higher? First of all, and then we'll get to Tommy Reese at Alabama. Well, as Brad Bowers still playing, us Georgia still. I think that at University of Georgia, Kirby's got its thing rolling a lot the way that Nick Saban has it in terms of the system isn't going to change. The terminology isn't going to change in Georgia is still recruiting the best players in the country. And their scheduled this year is very, very soft and weak. I think one tough game when I look on there maybe the university of Tennessee. I think Mike boba was a safe hire. It gave Kirby somebody that he's really familiar with in terms of the way he wants to run his system and not change things. When you win two national championships in a row, then you think that you have an opportunity to make history and win a third, you don't want changes. You don't want changes in terminology. You don't want changes in philosophy. So we'll see if that was the right decision, but Mike Bobo as long as he has the best talent in the country around him. And they continue to replace the guys defensively. George is going to be right in the thick of this thing again at the end. And Carl, what about the Reese hire at Alabama? A lot of people think it's a paradigm shift. What do you make out of that? The people that south then will really happy to see Tommy Reese dough, but I can tell you what the structure that Nick Saban has at the university of Alabama is going to do wonders for Tommy Reese. Tommy Reese is a really good recruiter. He's well liked amongst high school coaches. And he's going to have some tools and toys around him on the offense that he didn't have at Notre-Dame. And so what that's going to do is that's going to put him in a position to be successful. And he's going to have Nick, really being on top of him in a way that he probably has an experience before. Moves like this are going to bring the best out of. And we all know how bad Alabama wants to get on top. I think that Tommy Reese is going to do an excellent job at Alabama and that that's going to be a move that when we look at the end of the season Paul were like, that worked out a lot better than people thought it was that people started with. Tommy Reese is a better football coach than what people have given him credit for and he's going to have a lot more talent and Tuscaloosa to work with than he had in South Bend. And frankly, this interview worked out a lot better than I thought it was. I thought it would be good, but it was great. Thank you very much, Carl Reed for joining us. You come back anytime. That was fun. That was fantastic. We'll take a short break, and we are coming back after this. You are listening to the Paul finebaum show podcast.

"To the Paul fine bomb show podcast. Back Matt from San Antonio. AJ? You know why? In our apartment, one of the best cars, Paul. That's one of my key people is real. I never lied to this show. About my life is a lie. AJ is not a fake fake. He's a much a fake, one of the loser Trump who thinks he's on the ring listing, and I'm on my way to upstate fighter and it's going to mark the floor right there. He's not saying he's a loser. That's reason why HA to stop calling this show unless a real car is part of Google Cloud back home to his money. And we're not going to go 8 in four inches. We're going to go with tennis 293 and our chance of delusional bunch of idiots playing games all over one. We're going to market forward them. Paul said, Matt, thank you very much. Jason is up next in Georgia. Hello, Jason. Hey, Paul, how are you doing? We're doing great. Thank you. Saturday down south guy there that you know what they say about opinions. Everybody has one just like something else. That everybody has. And he's excited to debate him, but I think he's wrong. I think not only is more than qualified, like you said, South Carolina auburn, you just heard that out the window. And I think there's something else that people need to think about. Tell you, I don't think my mom is going anywhere for years. So you could build something to stable a long-term and knowledge to keep on rolling. Go dogs. Thank you very much. In addition, he's got great contacts with coaches in the state. He understands the system. There's no transition. He's already there. Kirby smart is well aware he could have gone out and hired a flash coach, but he clearly felt he didn't need it. And it's just amazing to me how everyone is harping on that higher and then dismissing the rest of the hires as being great. Crawford is in Tennessee. Hello Crawford, you are on the air. Yes, Paul, thank you very much for allowing me to come on the air. I have been doing some research on the Internet as far as college football stance and I come up with time month and versus Mike Bobo and these are the stats from the college web way website that I got this from. Starting with Todd monk and his offense for three years averaged 37.33 points per game with 5 and four star players. While the defense allowed averaging 14.83 points per game. Now, OC Mike Bobo last three season, 2012, 2013 and 14 offenses, averaged 38 .6 points per game with four and three star players. With the defense allowing an average of 23.1 points per game, a deficit of 8 points versus defense as far as gorgeous defense. Note that's 1.2 difference. Now, not only that, time of possession, the 2020 21 and 22 offensive time of possession, they had the vowel to minutes and 41 seconds longer than the 2012 2013 and 14 teams. That means you got more than two minutes more of his a play in time, but you still had 1.27 last points per game average. So all in all, the office did better because they had to score more points to make up a difference of 8 points per game. Well, listen, I appreciate the stats, Crawford I don't think they mean a whole lot. I think everyone acknowledges that Bobo's offenses under Mark Rick were very good. The defenses were not. Ship is up next. Hello, chip. Welcome to our show. Good afternoon. Hello, mister Powell. Love your show and watch it every day. How about that? I appreciate that very much. I appreciate your knowledge and your insight. We've been talking a little bit about coach Bobo today and very frankly and I'll ask the question and then let you answer. What is your personal opinion, as far as mister pond, miss fine Bond himself goes on the hiring of coach Bobo, your personal opinion? I think it was a smooth decision. No, it doesn't, it doesn't register on the Richter scale for a wow higher because Bobo has some baggage, but I like the fact that Kirby smart did not blink an eye. Connor said that it was as if the higher was ready to go. And the reason for that is it was ready to go. Kirby smart probably knew as far back as two months ago that monkey possibly would be leaving and I think he made the decision in a split second that he was going to elevate Bobo. And I don't think it has anything to do with him being his roommate or best friend. When you get to the level of Kirby smart, you don't hire people out of loyalty. Not when you're playing, they're playing up on Mount Everest right now. This is not kid stuff anymore. Mister foul law agree with you on that end to be honest with you with Bobo had a little time around monkey and certainly and surely he learned something. Wouldn't you think? Yeah, and chip, I think that's the most important thing that he understands what Kirby smart is doing right now, but I think it's blatantly ridiculous to criticize him for what he did at Colorado state as a head coach and what he did in two quick hits as an assistant coach. Listen, you can take the most talented person at any field and put him in a bad position and they will struggle. I can assure you, I've worked at bad places before. And no matter how hard you try, there's only so much change you can affect when you don't have a good infrastructure. He went to South Carolina as

"Hey, doing great, Paul, and I was afraid when I said the Tommy Reese hire there at Alabama, killed the Nick Saban dynasty. I didn't know if I was ever welcome back on this show. So I appreciate the invite. That's okay. Before we get to football, and I definitely want to get there because there's a lot to digest. What has been your reaction to this Alabama sago with the entire basketball program now being literally obliterated by many in the national media? Yeah, I mean, heavy topic obviously to open with here, Paul, and this is just one of those where I make a conscious decision never to rush to judgment. I know that's easy to do to go out there and give your two cents on what Alabama should have done, what Brandon Miller should have done. I think I've been listening to you all week and the opinions very wildly depending on a call guest to guess, this is just a subject where I honestly don't feel comfortable without having all the information weighing in on it. So I'm just on the sidelines. I don't blame you, by the way. I wish I had I wish I wish we had talked before the week began. Michael, let me get to. The Florida situation because I realized coaches come and go and NFL presents opportunities, but if you're not paying close attention or if you are, it looks bad that three coaches have left. What do you make out of it all? Well, I think I can sum up Billy Napier's season hidden into year two, Vanderbilt at home is a must win situation. So, I mean, that's essentially as dire as it gets for a coach that came in with much fanfare and apparently turned down many high profile SEC jobs and it's not a good look. Obviously, we got spring practice a week away Paul, so it's almost like a rush to get some of these coaches in here. You expect that year two jump. Now you're gonna have to be doing it with a new defensive coordinator and a guy that while Alabama was pretty fired up to get Austin Armstrong. About a year older than stetson Bennett, maybe a couple of years older than that, but I mean, I'm just left shaking my head here, Paul, because I think we have to reset the expectations now 4 billion AP are going into year two, and that's the last thing Florida fans want to hear, particularly with Georgia dominating the sport, Tennessee and South Carolina seemingly on the rise. I mean, I think making a bowl game will be something that should be celebrated a 6 and 6 type season, but that's clearly not why you brought Billy Napier in here. No, no, and this is university of Florida, which even after a couple of bad seasons still looked at itself as Alabama. I mean, you know the fan base, Michael, they don't settle for anything. Right. And here's something Paul. I don't know if you realize it, I've not heard it on your show, but the NFL scouting combined. That's not a total indication of what overall talent you had, but Alabama leads the country. Georgia's right on their heels number two, Florida is actually third most of all SEC programs. I think they're sending 9 players to the scouting combine, including Anthony Richardson, who some for some reason have pegged as the first overall pick in the draft. I'm not buying that, but just the fact that they have 9, maybe even ten NFL caliber players where they had that many, and yet we went 6 and 6 last season. That's somewhat of a damning statement on Billy Napier and the roster turnover and obviously now the coaching turnover. That's why I think we need to kind of pump the brakes on expectations unless you got urban Meyer coming back to town. I don't know how this gets fixed overnight. This may be a three or four year rebuild and I don't know if that's what the Gators need to hear want to hear, but that's what they need to hear right now. By the way, you may be right. And I think they have been remarkably patient, but it's also February. So patients goes a lot farther in the off season. Let me get to the Alabama situation because they were excited when they got Armstrong from southern mist. They thought that was a really big time higher for Nick Saban, a young coach on the defensive side of the ball. He's already gone. You rarely see that happened to Nick Saban, give us some thoughts on that coaching stuff. I know I know you alluded to it a few weeks ago, but tell us more. Yeah, well, the fact that correct me if I'm wrong, Paul, but Nick Saban had an open defensive coordinator position to fill this off season and Armstrong was not the higher. I know he got the co title, but that's just purely for title's sake. I mean, he was a position coach. So I don't know if I'd be doing cartwheels if I'm the Florida Gators that we hired this 29 year old. I mean, he may be the next Nick Saban for all I know, but the fact that more turnover, again, for Alabama, I just think it's laughable, Paul, some of these scholars you've had on your show, which I respect them greatly. They're throwing dirt on Georgia's grave for bringing back Mike Bobo when they hired Tommy Reese, who I can't find a single reason to celebrate Tommy Reese over Mike Bobo, I think Georgia comes out miles ahead in that exchange, and then you're bringing back Kevin Steele, who I got a great respect for Kevin Steele has been in the SEC for decades, but I mean, Miami's defense was God awful. The entire program down there was awful. So I don't know that he's the answer. He's just going to be running what Nick Saban wants run just like Pete Golding did. And we ran him out of town and blamed him for all our woes when we all know Nick Saban is in charge of the defense down there so I don't see much changing for Alabama and I don't care how many number one recruiting classes they sign down there. They signed the number one class two years ago, Paul and the vast majority of that class is either exited or not made any impact whatsoever for the program.

"We do have a bald man hosting today. Not Roman Harper, but myself, Cole cubic, we're gonna be with you for the next few hours, talking to everything SEC, got a great guest lineup for you a lot to discuss today, Roman, how are you? I'm doing good. You doing well? I'm doing great thing out the park too. Absolutely. I like the green. Thank you. Masters, okay? A little bit of Philly love too. Jalen hurts, shout out. Okay. That's it. I can't mention anything else about that game. I can't go past this with a former NFL defensive back here. Did you agree with holding call at the end of the game? So when I saw it, let's just go and get this out of the way. Get it. I saw it live and I was that's a terrible call, especially when it happens. But at the end of the day, he held him and I'm not going to defend it because Bradbury said had them negate my held them. So how am I going to defend a guy that literally came out and said, hey, you got us. I'm not going to admit it. Okay. There you go. As Paul knows every day your headlines that we're going to get to across the course of the show. Start you off with last night on rocky top, big one for Tennessee. As the walls find a little bit offense, finally, and find a way to knock off Alabama, deliver Nate owes his first loss in conference play this season. Just an impressive win last night, Roman Tennessee felt like they were the more physical team got into those passing lanes. I think it was 26 points off 18 Alabama turnovers, the most points of turnovers at Alabama has allowed this entire season. You didn't feel like bamboo is going to be able to get through the entire conference schedule unscathed and we knew Tennessee could play defense. It was just going to be a matter of them finding some offense go along with it. It was going to be really important that they didn't turn the ball over into Alabama. It's going to come down to experience in the tournament time. You got to have guys making big shots in big moments. They did not have that last night, Tennessee played to the moment. And I guess just like football, you see, always a good time for Tennessee to knock off a number one Alabama team. All right, next on the headlines, we have Florida's big loss in losing their leading score and third leading score in the SEC Colin castleton. He broke his hand last night in the game. He's also the leading SEC defender in blocks per game. So it affects you offensively and defensively. I don't know how Florida really recovers from this and they've already struggled in majority of their basketball season. He is a massive presence in the paint. Speaking of presidents, the George or bulldogs, they're going to stick with the president that has been in this spot before and that is Mike Bobo being the offensive coordinator now. We know coach monkey is going to move on to be the offensive coordinator for the Baltimore Ravens. He had been exceptional for the Georgia bulldogs. I still think one of the more underrated offensive coordinators in all of college football. And we go back and see Mike Bobo, his previous time as an offensive coordinator. He's a bright offensive mind. My biggest question here, Roman is the variety that you got from Todd munken. The ability. We'll talk about going into the national championship game. And the way that I previewed that George offense is you are going to have to defend everything. Every run, every formation, every motion, every protection, every screen, they carried everything, will Mike Bobo be able to have that much variety. Well, I think he'll take flavors of what they had success with the last few years on a Todd munchkin and they will continue to add on to that. Without the quarterback though, that's also a little caveat that we can not leave without speaking on is that you had a great quarterback the last two years carrying your offense and getting things done under the same kind of Todd marcolin. So I want to see how Georgia recovers, but the defense is clearly better. We looked at the numbers under Mike Bobo, George's offense has always been capable with plenty of athletes and getting those guys in space. But defensively now, Georgia looks different. They feel different under Kirby smart. And also with that schedule, it might take not more than a bunch of handoffs to the game for Georgia to win, at least the first ten. All right, download the planes. Your school, Jacques Cousteau. Is he ready to be a feature running back at auburn? I think he is. He's heavy enough. He's made all the plays that you want to see out of your every down running back the last two years. Now tank Biggs be moving on. I think he has all of the capabilities to be able to lead this team next year. I think he's the guy at tailback for auburn. Now, the good news is, and we see this all across college football and in the NFL. You don't have to have a guy anymore. Demario Olsen's a freshman tailback that folks down on the plane's raved about last year, his practice habits, his mindset, and you saw him carry the ball a little bit. He was fine. And then bati, who comes in from South Park, I think gives you a different little bit of a change up back that's going to be able to help out. Speaking of help, Nick Saban, always looking to add extra bodies to be able to help inside his football facility can whizz and hunt has been added to the staff as a special assistant to Nick Saban, nothing wrong with ever having a former brilliant NFL mind inside the building to be able to help you can whizz and hunt is a dinosaur in the NFL ranks, right? He's been around since the 90s. That probably before that. It's not mine. He has been around a very long time. He's seen a lot of ball, probably more than any of us have ever known about. So anytime Nick can bring in more great minds or to that program, I'm sure Alabama and everybody else around him can be happy about that.

"Then pageantry of college football lives here. This is the Paul fine bomb show hour one podcast. And good afternoon, welcome in as we have reached beyond the midpoint of February a lot happening and we will get to all of it for you over these next four hours. Thanks again for being here. Headlines about what you may have missed since we last saw you. How about Bama tonight an underdog? Did you hear me correctly and underdog in Knoxville, the number one team in the country? By the way, the last time Alabama was number one, it lasted a week. We see history repeating itself, the tale of the tape is pretty obvious here. It's a great team. So one has had terrible luck lately losing two straight games at the buzzer with three pointers. Bama facing a very difficult defensive unit tonight at Thompson Boeing. This was supposed to be a showdown and maybe the show me state, well, didn't happen. Missouri got sent all the way back home in crushing fashion, Bruce pearl finally gets his team back on the right track after the tough loss to Bama and meanwhile, somebody in attendance last night John Cohen giving an interview with AL dot com. He doesn't do that very often. He's starting to settle in at auburn. He's been there remember since the firing of the previous AD, John came in late in the season. He made the hire, of course, that led to you freeze. So we have a new OC at the defending national champions, and he's the former OC there. Mike Bobo played quarterback, coach of Georgia, went on to become a head coach later coordinator under chefs go on and auburn has now moved out of the analyst room and will take over for Todd monken. And can the ever do anything right? Good question. Pax 12 meteorites process nears its end, but there are conflicting stories about what the end may really mean. Stewart mandel spends most of his time on the West Coast Stewart, thank you. Appreciate you being here. Before we get too deep into some of the other subjects like the Georgia OC situation, what is going on, Stewart with the PAC 12, good afternoon. Good afternoon, Paul. Those negotiations, the fact well has been in for their next TV deal I've been going on since early July of last year and people are getting antsy and then understandably so and there's been a lot of reporting out there to indicate that the deal is not going well. I think that there have been a couple of miscalculations by George could off their commissioner for one thing. He had a lot of confidence even after USC and UCLA left. That they were going to do pretty well for themselves because they were next up. Like they were the next one up there, deal lines in 2024 while your big 12 commissioner kind of pulled a fast one on them and got ESPN and Fox to give them an extension a year early. For a pretty good number. So that kind of set the number. There's not much difference between those two leagues right. So any expectation that the PAC 12 is going to make a lot more money than the big 12 that's not realistic. And also your strong as many bidders as I think they expected and Fox in particular after re upping with the big 12 doesn't seem to have any interest in the fact 12. So there's a lot of pressure on him to put together a good deal because the big 12 for one is sitting there waiting to pounce, they've had their eyes on what we call the four corner schools. Arizona ASU Colorado and Utah since last summer. But from what I've been told, nobody's looking to leave the pack 12, the only way that would happen is if the deal is just disastrous. And we'll see. We'll see how well he does here. Hopefully some resolution in the next few weeks. Yes, Stuart, I don't want to prejudge him, but he came in with a lot of bluster, which wasn't difficult taking over for Larry Scott. What has he done so far in your estimation? I mean, the positives have been addressing some of the hands on football stuff that Larry Scott was not very good at like scheduling. But I think the word that comes to mind for me is naive. I don't think he ever suspected that USC and UCA would jump. I think he should have been a little more in tune to that. And then like I said, I won the deal. One of the things that really astounded me, Paul, is you may have remembered seeing headlines about the UC board of regents, started having hearings last fall about UCLA has moved to the Big Ten. And throwing out the possibility they might block the move. None of us here thought that was ever realistic. But George the off cough did to the point where he was going to these media presentations where I've been told and showing these possible bidders, two scenarios, one with UCLA, one without UCLA. And the whole thing held up these negotiations for months. And I just, I don't know why you would think that that was ever anything more than some grandstanding by a few California politicians. Talking to Stewart mandel here from the athletic Stuart, let me switch gears to the revolving door, of coordinators, Todd munk and leaving Alabama, of

"Passion and pageantry of college football lives here. This is the Paul finebaum show best of podcast. Welcome back a lot happening this hour with check in with NATO to a little bit later on, big game tomorrow against Tennessee. Number one team in the country, but first, the big news of this day in the SEC and that's the departure of the two time national championship winning offensive coordinator at the university of Georgia Todd munch and heading to the ravens and the NFL and Seth Emerson joining us right now to give us the latest chef. Thanks for the time. Good afternoon. Appreciate you being here. Tell us what this means to Kirby smart as he attempts to win a three peat. How are you? Well, thanks. Paul, for having me on. Hope you're doing well. It kind of gives us a fresh angle for 2023, already knew that Georgia would be working in a new quarterback, how do you replace stetson Bennett? And now how do you replace Todd munken? We do know who the new offensive coordinator will be and that's Mike bogo. I kind of thought that was what was going to happen all along. And it's good, Paul. I was a little worried that the discourse around here would be a little too just stable after winning two rings. Stetson Bennett discourse happened for three years and he settled that at the end. Pretty much nobody holding out on whether he's a very good quarterback and now we've got a Mike Bobo discourse to go back to and act like it's 2012 and 2013 all over again. And he kind of settled the issue Bobo did back in 2014 and he guided the all time highest scoring offense in Georgia history, but since then, especially with the way things went in South Carolina and then auburn when he was back in the SEC as a coordinator kind of gotten some grist for the mill. Mike Mike Bobo doubters again. So this will be this will be a lot more interesting year, Paul. I checked in with somebody that knows Bobo Riley and I said, what's up with this guy? Because I remembered when he had a good reputation, but working in South Carolina and obviously for Brian harsh and the damage to that as well as the Colorado state head coaching experience. So what should Georgia fans expect from Mike Bobo? Well, I wrote a column today and I think there's a lot of people that are either remembering the early years of Bobo at Georgia and reming that too much without accounting for how well the offense was rolling by the time he left. And then there's people also looking at the auburn and South Carolina experiences. Look, Oliver and 2021 was a dumpster fire. South Carolina kind of was too. In both that case, must champ got fired during the year in Brooklyn to the actually being an interim coach. He did not have the talent on those two teams that he will have at Georgia. He also will have more talent now than he did at Georgia the first time around. Now there was talent there, but go back and look at the players and where they went to the NFL on those 2012, 1314 teams. You've got your chubs and Michelle's and girlies, David Andrews starting center with patriots. But not as many as are going to be on next year's offense. He also except for one year at Georgia in 2011. Never had a defense, like he's going to you expect him to have to lean on at Georgia. That was one of the great failings. One of the reasons that Mark Rick was never able to close the deal is he hardly ever had the offense in the defense really good at the same time. And for the last few years, it was basically the defense. Pulling them back. And Mike bubble's offense doing well. So I think that's what Kirby smart is banking on. And I also think that Kirby smart is banking on that they're going to run the Todd munchkin system. Mike Bobo watched Todd munchkin do it all this past year. And I bet Todd monkey was consulted on the way out by Kirby smart. And probably told him, I think Mike Bobo contributed a lot this year as an analyst and you should seriously consider him if not to be crazy not to hire him. Speaking of monkey, was it inevitable that he was going back to the NFL? He'd been there before and he seemed like his name was linked to a lot of jobs. Yeah, yeah. And I think he only interviewed two places, Tampa Bay, it just was Brady leaving Todd Bowles, not on firm ground next year, they're up against it on the cap. I don't think monkey was that interested there. But I think he was interested in the ravens, I mean, obviously he was very interested in them. But it was interested in them regardless of whether Lamar Jackson will be back there. John Harbaugh is seem to be much more stable there. Ravens are just kind of a stable organization in general. And I think Todd munk and a lot of coaches that go NFL to college, they discover that they have a lot more on their plate in college. The recruiting and all other facets that come with it, make it a real 52 week job. Now you get maybe a couple of weeks total here and there. But the NFL, you got more off time. And you can just coach basically. I mean, you have to do some draft evaluation and more teams are bringing their coaches into the drafts valuation process. But you do have a whole scouting department and personnel department. There's just a lot more on the plate for college coaches and I think Todd munchkin was ready to go back. I think he was happy to be at Georgia. I think it helped burnish his reputation again after a year at Cleveland in 2019 where he honestly wasn't even a play caller, but it didn't end well for him there. So he wasn't getting NFL offensive coordinator nibbles at that point, but he did it at Georgia. He won two rings and I think he's happy to go back to the NFL, which is less of a brand. Seth, before we change subjects, everyone's picking Georgia to win understandably with the success and the talent. But as somebody who's around that program every day and maybe see things, the rest of us don't. Are we on the right track here? Should Georgia definitely be the pick to win it all? I mean, I guess people are now in the mode of let's not give Kirby smart any reason to twist our words into we are doubting Georgia. Because there are pre season number three last year and yet it turned into everyone was doubting us. And nobody picked us to make the playoffs, even though many, many people picked them to make the playoffs. There's still going to be a lot of talent on this team, but when you're around the team every day, you do see the potential flaws. So is Carson Beck, if he wins the starting quarterback job is he a winner? The same way that stetson Bennett proved to be.

"Statements about respected schools and teams and they have had quite a few about Alabama in recent days. Bill is in Kentucky and you're on the air. Hello Bill. Hey, Paul, thanks for taking my call. Thank you. We're doing great. Thank you. Yes, sir. Earlier, I've been listening and watching too. The hell you had coach tales press conference. Right. Yeah. I'm on to comment. There's a lot of controversy about coach Hal and the fan base. I mean, there's a lot of people that I think they got real poor memories. I mean, let's go back. I think how was he going to conduct in 2010? Okay. Let's start, we've had a couple of bad years now. There's no doubt about that. I mean, I'm not going to take that long. I mean, they've been disappointing. Actually, one year was supposed to be really good recruits and they didn't turn out to be any good. But that's another story. I'm going let's go the previous ten years. Do these fans of Colin for coach cows? Are they going back to Bill hill? No, I don't think anybody wants to go back to Gillespie. I'm just calling the way it is. You because the coach and the 98 championship team are. No, no, you're right, and what people don't, for those who don't know what we're talking about, Rick Pitino had built an absolute monster in Lexington. He left to go to the Celtics. Tubby Smith comes in and wins a national championship and quite frankly, it only went down from there. You did. And we did that you can get in the final four. I mean, and most of the house had a couple of bad years this year is still on limbo. Yeah, no. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty encouraged by what I'm seeing. Well, they're playing better defense. I like some of the times I'm saying. Tomorrow and ask game will be asked on your game with Arkansas or candidacy. We're the things that stand, I think, that would be a big game. But I'll say this about Cal he has meant a great deal to the school and to the state and the frustration comes he's had countless elite 8s, a number of final fours. And nonsense, 2015. And I think that's really what rubs people the wrong way. How real quickly real quickly. Sure. He went 38 now. 40 and I was so bad. No, that was in 2017 when North Carolina won the championship. We played them in the elite 8 and got beat on a life second shot. And if it was ever a team that got a hose by the referees, it was Kentucky. I'm obviously with you on that game, bob. That was horrible. You really was. It was almost like robbery. Well, Bill, listen. Keep the faith, I'm sure some fans of Tennessee and Alabama auburn Arkansas probably got a good chuckle out of getting a bad Kentucky getting a bad call. Check in with Mark in North Carolina. Hello Mark. Hi, yes, sir. How are you doing? We are doing great. I just wanted to call. I'm listening to your show while I'm working and I keep hearing you talk about how well George, I'm a huge George man. How will Georgia will do at time monk and leaves, if Mike Bobo steps in? And I just want to say, I think you're completely wrong about that. Remember how Mike Bobo did with Mark rigg there. He took over as OC and just did a horrible job, but he couldn't make decisions that would benefit Georgia left, went to the head coaching job, did a horrible job there. They brought him back because he's a friend of the head coach. They've got the friendship going. And Les Todd monckton has changed his mentality of thinking he would be a formal job in Jordan would never go and win another national title with him as OC. Well, Mark Ellison pointing out, I understand your frustration with Mike bubble, everyone else had similar frustrations. I was simply saying that at some point, it's more about Todd munchkin and I think Georgia would be better if he stayed, but Kirby smart do is my only point. Thank you for the call. I do appreciate it. Joe is in Ohio. You're on the air. Hello, Joe. Hey, Jeff. Hey, how you doing? We're doing, we're doing great. Great. Thank you. First color, buddy. Hey, I love show. Hey, I wanted to run back something from probably 5 years ago. I had a birthday and so we went to Tennessee. So I'm coming home or we're heading back to the hotel after a nice long night and there was a nice older couple getting on the elevator. Bama fans, obviously. And he was dressed just like Paul Bryant and his wife really was having trouble getting on the elevator. So we helped them out and rode up two or three levels as they got off. The older gentleman turned around and he said, go, bam, I just happened to be the day that or the year that Bama beat Ohio State and course were high state fans and we got all our gear on and it really aggravated me because I'm a huge college football fan.

"It seemed like everyone was at that basketball game. What can you tell us about that? Well, I don't think it's because they're going to put them on the Georgia basketball team, although that might help Tom crean in the bulldogs right now on that. They would certainly draw better if they had arch Manning on their bed. No, listen, here's the secret. Todd market Todd monk in the offensive coordinator. He's the guru. He's the secret. He's the guy that can leverage every play, make quarterbacks, running backs look good. Look at these guys go to the line of scrimmage Paul and Todd muk and offense and he's gonna get him in the right play. And he's gonna out leverage you every single time with his offense. And the man he know that. Monkey is a guru. He is a true guru. And so he is the secret to Georgia getting arch Manning. Now, this mug can stick around. Does he have NFL opportunities? I think he sticks around. Because if he sticks around and he gets a guy like march Manny, man, does his stock go up. Does Todd market's resume look that much better? So I think mucking sticks around. I think he's the key to the Manning recruitment. And I think he's one of the preeminent offensive coordinators in college football. I think that was a very overlooked story this year was the importance of Todd mukin running this George offense. Mike three weeks ago, Georgia got back, celebrating the national championship. A lot has happened since then, but I'm curious, sometimes you can't base the future on what we're seeing in real time. But just as somebody on the ground in Athens, even though you're in mobile today, what is different now that Georgia has finally overcome that 40 year drought. Well, I mean, there's a very exciting feeling in Athens. Nobody wants to celebration and nobody wants to party to end, but I can guarantee you, as you said, you saw Kirby. You've seen him flying around all over in the Kirby copter, making all these visits. He understands the importance, locking down this recruiting class, getting these 5 5 stars, a defense in two years that could rival the record setting defensive this year. So the wheels keep spinning. He adds Mike Bobo. Back is an analyst and old buddy, one more trusted phase one more ear to the ground that Kirby can trust in the coach's office. I thought that was something that was missing early in his tenure. When you look at these ultra successful coaching staffs, they've got a lot of people in the room that they can trust that they've got their back. I thought last year adding will must champ was extremely important. I thought much hip was another key, another part of the story that we really didn't get to tell as well. You know, they don't let any of these guys talk everybody stays behind an iron curtain somehow they think that's a good thing. But I think when you should be called the three musketeers, right? Bobo, must camp smart, they were all in Georgia together, ray golf recruited all those guys. Very important to the program. And then they bring back mcclendon B map, a guy that's an ultra successful recruiter, probably a more definitely a more important higher than boba. He gets plugged right in as the receivers coach, passing game coordinator, outstanding recruiter out of Atlanta. He makes an impact. So now all of a sudden, you've got a lot of Georgia declared of his staff and the time when you wonder, how can you possibly ascend and get better after a national championship? The answer is to solidify your staff to get more guys that are going to bring more continuity and be able to sell the program more effectively because it's all about keeping those bodies rolling in paw, Georgia could have a record breaking class. They've got 15 guys that could be drafted and that would break the record set by LSU and Joe burrows team having 14. Heck they got 6 guys here. Mike finally, I mean, Alabama is still expected to be number one this year. No one wants to take anything away from them, nor does anyone need to praise them any more than they've already been praised, but do you shift? Do you sense a shifting in the power structure in the SEC right now? Well, right now it looks that way only because Texas a and M is bought this recruiting class and we can say that's legal now. You can say they bought recruit. That's okay to do that, right? And they got all that oil money, right? They've got that's a big advantage. That's why Nick Saban said, hey, we need some rules, man. Nick Saban wants rules. We want rules, he says, because he sees what's coming with a and M and all that money and their ability to get recruits with the way this thing's working right now. You know, we talking a week two weeks, two months Paul might be completely different roles structure, Saban may get his rules. He might appoint Craig, thank you. You might call sake, yeah, hey, thank you. Yeah, saving. Hey, I need you to be the commissioner of college football. You got it, Nick. I mean, I really do think, though, that the SEC excuse me that college football needs a commissioner. I think they need it desperately, because as I said, this thing is spiraling out of control. People are throwing money around. You're seeing marketing groups, you're seeing former players, giving money to get players and these private lounges where they can interact with the whole thing, man. This is like AU renegade basketball, ten, 15 years ago, there's no rules. So it's the power structure shifting. Yeah, right now on the surface, but listen, the winds are blowing. The dust has not settled. It would take a couple of years. I think, for there to be this massive overhaul to these money schools right now, look, it's the same story. It's Alabama and Georgia next year, right? For the foreseeable future the next couple years, Alabama, Georgia, but yeah, a and M's coming man. They're coming hard. My Griffith, thank you very much, my joining us from mobile, where today Mardi Gras is well underway and I don't know about his favorite beverage of Mardi Gras, but he definitely might definitely broke into the red milk.

"Alabama and the BCS championship game. But you got to understand those teams are significantly less talented than the other teams in the playoff or into BCS case, Alabama. So to me, I think that you put him in a situation where you can get that kind of stop to your talent. He's going to do some damage at LSU. I do think he's going to win a national championship on the Bayou. Did I hear that correctly? Barrett solely picking LSU to do good things? I did this to you. That didn't work out to us. That was the only time that I picked them to do well though. This is now, too. This is not a second time that I've been on board a fellowship. Although I will not, again, not next to your Paul, maybe next year, Paul. But in the future, I do think Brian Kelly go to international championships there. And we're just kidding. Barrett's Lee was, by the way, just for those of you keeping track, I know there's a lot of channel surfing right now. Auburn was just stopped on a fourth down. They held a lead into a minute ago. And with a little over two minutes ago, auburn now trails. 17, 13. This was a better question for two and a half minutes from now, but assuming sitting auburn does not stop Cincinnati and win this game, that would be what? O and three so far for the SEC? Yeah, ruby open three. You know, again, though, I don't put a whole lot of stock in conference records in both season really one way or the other. I wrote something a while back when the SEC was like 9 and two that it wasn't a compliment to the SEC either. They're all individual matchups. They all have separate issues. They all stand alone and now this day and age with opt outs and coaching changes and all that other stuff. You know, it's almost impossible to have a referendum one way or the other on an entire conference when every game sort of has its own DNA. So it would be disappointing. I'm sure Greg thank you and the rest of the SEC office would like to find a way to get the job done here, but I mean, look, I think the lines swung to Houston being favored like overnight. So, you know, is that does that matter all that much? Especially with two in the playoffs, but let me get to the more specific question and I realize all of this could change, although I doubt it will. But I remember sitting, I think we were in College Station and Brian harsh and auburn were riding in there. Still in contention for everything in the end of the season assuming this does not turn around here has been rather rough for the auburn tigers. Oh, no doubt. You know, a 6 win season a regular thick one regular season no matter what happened. At the end of this bowl game. But a 6 win regular season at auburn is unacceptable. I don't care if coaching transition, injuries, whatever. That is unacceptable, especially the way that it went down at the end of the regular season blowing the lead to Mississippi state, going well at 6 quarters without an offensive touchdown. Yeah, the game against Alabama was, look, that was the performance of a lifetime for that defense and they deserve all the credit in the world. But that still doesn't make up for the other 11 regular season games prior to that. So it does, I think it should bring concern at least a little bit to what Brian harsh vision is. I think letting go of Mike Bobo obviously to me is a sign that he recognizes that you have to be quick here. You had auburn. There's no time to waste if you think something's not going to work. You have to address it immediately. So I think in that regard, you know, he's done a good job, especially considering the way they closed and recruiting in the early signing theory too. But those things have to be done now because the team was so average or below average and in a lot of cases, mediocre. So it's unacceptable. It shouldn't happen. And it's going to have to turn around. It's not going to say it's going to be two and done, but there's going to be some pressure on him and deservedly so because this can't happen again. Yeah, and it is going to happen today auburn is going to lose to Cincinnati after holding the lead. Most of the second half, they will finish the season what 6 and 7 they are currently trailing 1713 and Cincinnati is just literally running out the clock. Let me get to the big game. The big games, Barrett, Saturday on Friday, excuse me. Alabama Cincinnati and obviously George and mission, your thoughts on those two games. Well, I think when you look at the first name between Cincinnati and Alabama, Alabama is going to be Cincinnati by 20 points or more. I mean, it is such a mismatch. I understand the thoughts Gardner and Kobe Bryant are solid cornerback really good cornerbacks actually. But there's still our safeties. There's still our nickelback. There's still a ton of talented players on that Alabama, wide receiving core tight ends, running back out of the backfield regardless. It's going to be impossible for them to slow down. And so I do think the Georgia game for Alabama was the sign that things have turned around. And they'll be able to keep rice on clean, keep them in the pocket, a lot like you was against Georgia. I think Michigan, Georgia, I'm missing Georgia's going to be a phenomenal game. I think it's going to be a close game, old school game, but those themes play a very similar brand of football. I do think that you will have more of a package and more availability for JP Daniels because I think at the end of the Alabama game, Georgia, I would say laid up, but they recognize that they had a little bit of a buffer, they understood that they could lose and still make a playoff. And so they wanted to see if that's in can throw them out of a hole. They found out that he can't, or at least did that day, so they have to have different ways and other options available JC Daniels will be it. So I think Georgia gets the job done, but I do think it'll be a close game. Barry, many, many thanks. A happy new year, we will talk to you as soon as this weekend wraps up. Thanks, Paul. Have a great step. So auburn has lost 1713 in the Birmingham bowl. They finish with 5 straight losses after a fast start and 6 and 7 in his first season at auburn, Missouri state will play tonight trying to reverse the ON three beginning for the auburn tigers. That's also the second loss to the AAC been a rough beginning. But we're not going to talk about it. We'll be right back. You are listening to the Paul finebaum show podcast. Getting paid up to.

"Honestly, I'd rather watch paint dry than watch triple off. No, not that one. Not telling Fraser and Lawrence Phillips and migraine in those guys. They did a different they were serious. They did it different. But back to the points with Albert and Greg and I have spent a lot of time this football season, discussing this team. And I think part of what you said was so accurate early on that Mike Bobo and Brian Harrison, they were just piecemeal in that offense to get work. Taking some tight ends. These are tight ends. It all been fans didn't even know we're alive at the beginning of the season. Because Mao zan didn't use that part of the offense very much. And they found a way to get them into the game plan, implemented them in, took a few games and then right around the LSU game, I think Bobo and harsh and said, what is our quarterback do best? Well, it's tough. He's durable. He's got great wheels. Well, let's use it. And then the implemented that into the game plan. That began to work. That opened up some more things downfield. That got the confidence going the offensive lines got a little bit better over the cross the course of the season. And Greg, I can't explain why the identity has seemed to go on away at certain times. Here in the last few weeks, I don't know if it's a trust factor. I do think that's a very real part of it, especially when you change quarterbacks. You don't call the same place. You don't have faith that the same routes are gonna work that the protections will be the same. Especially we don't have the same escapability and you don't have those quarterback runs to add in that can make a defense play you the way you want them to play you. So depth is a huge part of this, especially on defense, but I don't know exactly where the disconnect is with this offense. The last maybe month. And this is the way I've described it with auburn. When I watch them, when the stars align and everyone on their team plays good football, you get Arkansas. That's the game you get. You get old miss. That's the game you get. You get second half against LSU, where miraculous plays were being made by several people in different spots. But sometimes when I watch them, when the offensive line is going good, the running backs aren't going good. When the quarterback's going good, the wide receivers aren't going good. It's like, oh man, we got the run game going to the receivers take a couple snaps series off. It's just odd. It's like they can't ever all 11 offensively be playing at a really high level together. When it clicks, it's a thing of beauty. But it hasn't clicked often enough. I just can't for whatever reason figure out why the inconsistencies have occurred. It's almost mind boggling. You could almost take that into halfs as well. Mississippi state first half. A lot of cash rush. Absent second half. And then you go back to this past week against South Carolina defensive line, very active first half almost gone in the second half. There's even a certain position groups just seem to flash in the disappear at certain times. It's a new team. It's a new scheme. It's a new coaching staff, so some of that you expect, but not near as much this late in the season. It's going to marry in Birmingham. She wants to join the show. Welcome and Mary. Hey, call and Greg, and I'm so happy to talk to you. Greg, I love you. I know you are Alabama through and through. But sometimes I just want to say great. Thank you so you're Alabama. You know, you are Alabama. You write. I love a really love you. But I want to ask what your thoughts are on Georgia and Alabama. Do you really think we have a chance? Georgia. I love album. Thank you so much, Mary. We love you as well. Roll tide. I feel left out. Yeah, I don't care what Cole feels. I would just, I'm going to use Nick Saban's playbook here. Why are we talking about Georgia? We can't be talking about Georgia right now. It's the iron bowl week, man. We can't be thinking about what's coming next week because when that happens, you have circumstances like I'm trying to think of a good example. 2017. 17 would be the first one. But the best one, but at that point, Alabama had not punched their ticket to the SEC championship game. I guess you could say it to a certain extent. Maybe a slightly larger screen to edit Holmes game winning field goal. That one come to mind. I would say 2000, but that was a three win Alabama team that we beat that year. So that one probably wouldn't really play in to the discussion that we're attempting to have here. But we could find other examples if we needed to. Well, I remember us in 2009 being excellent. Excellent. Cooking on many levels, both obviously a default especially that part of the season. That day in Jordan hare was the biggest grind in the world. They had no business in the game being close in the fourth quarter. None. The personnel was not favorable for auburn that day. Defensively offensively, we were better across the board. And yet, we got our back against the wall with 7 minutes left in the game. It's a difficult, difficult, difficult game. So I would say that Mary as an Alabama fan and as someone that knows the dangers of going to play and Jordan here, let's focus on this one. Let's put on our crimson glasses. Let's focus on this one this week. Before we start thinking about Georgia, we'll get to that, of course, next week. When we start to preview the SEC championship game. Still so many of your phone calls to get to 8 5 5 two four two Paul going to dive a little deeper into some of these matchups between ACC and SEC opponents. Will it just mean more again this year? We certainly hope so..

Welcome back to the whole show. We've got the thursday night special coming up in the second hour for a eight doozy of a thursday night football game against the between the jets and the colts pretty excited about that. One kevin lytle joining me from the fort collins. Colorado and kevin we got border war we can. Boy fans are upset. They're frustrated with the rams with steve adagio but a lot can sure be forgiven if the rams find a way to not only be wyoming but retain the boudou it twice in a row. Yep exactly winning games like this can heal a lot of wounds. I mean you know if we go backwards a little bit. One of the main reasons. Mike bobo was fired was because he didn't win rivalry games So steve one for one in the border war few for two and it will certainly help pacify a lot of things And kind of ease that frustration from fans kevin. You've covered the rams awhile. You've got a good connection with ram nation and i. I've seen this and tell me if i'm wrong. I've seen plenty of rams fans. Say if they had to pick between going to a bowl game or not going to a bowl game but beating your rivalries they'd rather beat the rivalries then go to a bowl game is that does that seem like there's a good chunk of fans that feel that way. Yeah i think that's Maybe a little bit of a lie. i think it's partially true. Certainly you really want beat your rivals. You feel good when you do but if that's all you do I think people still be pretty frustrated. I think we say right now if you beats wyoming saturday i don't think you know people be calling for a ten year extension for osceola yet So it's one of the it's there's truth to it I think the problem with the boa era is you weren't being your rivals. And yeah you were going to bowls but the program never really offended kinda flatlined so you know especially with all the investments you kind of want. Both but being rival beating rivals is certainly good. Start so yeah. I don't think it fixes everything. I think we've seen the last year plus that that's a little bit of allied that's all fans need but it's certainly a good start well in fairness we asked the question when during the bobo era when there were really no riflery win so fans were desperate beat their rivalries but certainly now things perhaps changed a little bit but nonetheless that would take a lot of pressure off of adazi. Oh they can get get a fourth win beat wyoming and who knows you got air force the following week but a lot of pressure on this one and boy kevin on the opposite side of that if the rams lose and another in wyoming if they.

"Great quarterback great pre snap. But he hasn't really been in a really adverse environment yet so that has to be a weapon because it will rally you a little bit as a quarterback and that has to be. Some florida leans into everyone talks about pumping and noise trying to simulate. Can you simulate this you can simulate. The noise and i was at an alabama practice last week where it was super loud. I mean it was annoyingly loud. i couldn't even have a conversation with cole cubelic standing next to me. But here's a thing. Noise and pressure are two different things. You can have noise at practice but it is absent of the pressure that a big moment brings here in the swamp. So florida has to simulate that noise but also they as a defense and as a team have to put pressure on bryce young so that that rattles him in some way right. It's not just noise. Noise by itself is nothing players deal with that all the time. it's all hand signals. It's not a big deal. The pressure that this defense and todd grantham puts on brace young has to accompany the noise. We spent all the time so far talking about this game. I want to zip through a couple of other games. Quickly We you can't. You can't simulate the white out either. What's auburn facing as they get off the bus and under that field tomorrow now. I mean it's it's a crazy environment and james franklin look he's really good at preparing his teams for the moment. You can have a lot of questions about how they've performed certain but he'll get his players ready and he'll have that environment ready. All eyes are going to be on bo knicks but would argue that. All the pressure is on mike. Bobo in a good way. Right because bo knicks has been bad on the road twelve of his thirteen career interceptions on the road. So mike bobo needs to make sure that bo knicks doesn't feel like he needs a throw on a superman cape to win this game. This game plan has to be centered around tank bixby muddy up this game. Make this a physical dirty football game. Make sure that bo knicks knows. I don't have to make these every crazy. Throw every pass. Play doesn't have to be a touchdown. He needs to play within the system in an order to do that. Mike bo was gonna make him comfortable. He's gotta had preached that all week and practice. He's gotta make sure that tank. Bixby is the focal point. Early to set the tone because otherwise bo knicks is going to get into a situation where he's going to make mistakes and if you make mistakes and turn the ball over there. That's how auburn loses game in athens. Carolina fans excited. They haven't been in a position like this in a while. They know they won their two years ago. What do they have to do to make this interesting tomorrow. Night is horn. Plan is miserable. Mclamb plan i think they're missing a few guys that really helped the last time they won that football game. Look this team and shane. Beamer has to just get a competitive fire outta this team because georgia's a much better football team georgia's gonna win this football game. Georgia has a lot of questions. South carolina needs to learn how to compete in these moments raised their level of play. Fine leadership find fire. But if i'm georgia can can i like can the real georgia offense stand up. Because i don't know who they are. And i don't frankly. I don't care stem bennett. I don't care if it's carson back. I don't care if it's jt daniels. I do not care. Show me who you're going to be against arkansas. Show me who. You're going to be against auburn. Show me who you're going to be at the end of the year because you can't just figure that out. Then are you gonna be a downhill play action based around your strength of the running backs. Are you going to be spread team when jt's healthy and back in the game. I don't know pick one because your defense is going to take you all the way but that offense is going to be what makes break you and right now i just i look at it and i go their best players. A tight end from napa california. He's a great player. But you got to focus on some of the other talent you have around. You build the offense to do so jordan rogers. Quite an interesting analysis. We'll see more jordan tomorrow morning on. Sec nation jordan. Thanks great stuff. We are back to gainesville in a moment. Steve spurrier an hour away.

"mike bobo" Discussed on The Hull Show ? 1310 KFKA
"Yeah and And so they're going to have to surprise some people not just the oddsmakers but a lot of other people to and make some believers if If they want to win some games those none of those are easy tasks and honestly on paper. This is probably the most winnable of those going into it so kelly. What when you look at the issue and from what you've heard you know like i at the beginning of the training camp. I i was optimistic looking. Oh this defensive line and defense is going to be good. We're going to be moving around. Taty entails going to have a good year and but we got some backup though. At least what. Tell me this if you'd be my therapist today kelly. Why am i suddenly kinda shaky now. Suddenly i'm feeling a little concerned about this team because you saw them play for games. Last year. i saw a lot of a lot of serious concerns. You also saw them. Finish out the mike bobo era without a lot of things strong positives too so you know it tends to to to make you very nervous and yeah it. And that's what happens to the team to. That's why i think that. Confidence factor is so big. They start thinking about what can go wrong instead of what is going to go right and you start flashing those things through the heads of players when they're on the field and you you can't have that and be successful. They have to believe that they're going to win. They have to believe that they're going to be the better team to actually make the place to pull it off. So yeah it's a it's it's tough and it's tougher when you're in a program like colorado state that's really hasn't had a lot of success in the past decade. Yeah i mean again. There's there's a lot of ways you can go with this one for sure and it's going to be it's going to be nervous time for rams fans certainly kelly what what what do you what do you think..

"Gentleman. I have picked the brain of many times. Jay romano pro. Better here in las vegas good to be with you. Thanks for having me all right well. We finally broke the seal. Got you on the pod. And i think it's a perfect situation. Do college win. Totals because the board has been hit pretty hard. But there's still a lot of opportunities out there and we're we're obviously. The calendars turned to mid august. We are ready to go Football season's right around the corner. So i know there's a lot of plays you like a little bit off the grid but i want to start the marquee ones and it's the one that's my favorite of a mall and i've talked about it a few times on daily wager. I believe i've even mentioned it here on the podcast but i am very very big on auburn under seven now the juices move some shops or six and a half. If you want to go six plus money that's fine. It's just so tough when you get the push at seven so i prefer the seven with the juice and it all comes down to the schedule. Not the only reason but the schedules really really difficult. And you've got bama. You got an got georgia. I don't think there's any chance auburn win those games. I know rivalry game and war eagle and all that stuff with the with the iron bowl but it's just auburn is rebuilding. And they have a new coach bryan. Hartson coming in from boise. State and bonex is just not materialize into the quarterback that everyone thought he would be. Maybe a new oc. Mike bobo will unlock. I'll just kind of have to see it to believe it. So in addition to obama. Georgia am there at lsu. They have all miss at home. You know at arkansas. And then there's there's this tough spots here and it's a team that's going to be lacking on offense defense. They're calling card. So i think i don't see how they go eight and four to lose this play. Well i i would definitely recommend Playing the seven laying the juice in this situation. I almost always gonna lay the juice versus taking maybe plus one ten plus one twenty on the under. It's definitely worth the extra half a game. I'm actually high on auburn this year. However i completely agree with you. The schedule is brutal. There's just no breeders for them. I think bonex. Could you know have an improvement. This year they can play well. It's just there's just not enough wings on the schedule. It really looks like they're ceiling is seven. It's just you know when you like. You said when you go to texas. Am have to play alabama lsu home against georgia. And then at penn state week three. It's just you forgot about the penn state game. I'm glad you mentioned that. Cause at the white out game in happy valley. yeah. And i'm looking headlines there between four and a half and seven and a half point underdogs So they can exceed expectations and still not go over this win total. Yeah no. it's a lot to ask. It's certainly a lot to ask but you're so you're high on wsb. Maybe as a dog and a lot of spots throughout the season. So i know you have some places. Well but notre dame under nine talk about not soft spots on the schedule that that's certainly stands out where you'll get the irish yet. The with them again is scheduled schedule. Schedule you know. I know there are top ten ranked team coming into the season but it is just absolutely unforgiving. Weakened weak outs starting at florida state where they opened about ten and a half eleven point favorites. It's down to seven and a half eight. That's not gonna be an easy task. Going into dough campbell on a standalone game in a national televised audience. Week one with a new quarterback Jet cohn was name started earlier this week. With up and down. Wisconsin played well and times. But we'll we'll have to see how he jumped there Notre dame is starting four new offensive lineman. They returned to starters on offense. It's it's a little early in the season For that type of test. So not only would. I looked afford a states Plus the points week one just a little bonus pick right there but the under nine for the season feels like a pretty safe option

A hopefully normal ish football season normal is i know. There's a lot of talk going around but right now everything is full steam ahead good. Chances already come out and said that they're going to leave it to local counties for handling any of the protocols along the way which is exciting.

'cause he's quite saying he has all the talent to be a really special high school player. Yeah he does and like you said that they started off with the box of in. And i don't think that's their slogan this year for ceus you but they're doing they're doing a hell of a job at it. Yeah they really are making big efforts. I mean that we can this summer where they've been able host camps if you just kinda crews twitter you just take tons and tons of local kids Have been at the camps and many of them have have gotten offers at those camps.

"Back to the whole show. We're live from the auto collision specialist studios. Thanks for hanging out with us on this friday afternoon joining me. Now kelly lyle of the fort collins colorado and kelly a lot to dig into with. You want to get your thoughts from the mountain west media days in las vegas but of course you got rams fans going a little crazy today because of the news. We're hearing from texas and oklahoma that maybe we're a couple of weeks away from them joining the sec. Well we have rams we have a rams fan page. That's called shoe to the big twelve. How likely would that be that. The colorado state rams finally get in where a lot of these fans are dreaming. Well you know it's it's certainly again again a possibility again. I guess You know there's a lot of people that think. Texas and oklahoma are doing a little saber rattling just for the heck of it because they can and to remind the rest of the world that they're you know how relevant they feel they are You know but if i could see it actually happening though texas and oklahoma the sec. And if that does happen then the big twelve has to do something to remain relevant itself because they just can't sitting you know the the eight teams that would be left. Just aren't all that attractive to the rest of the world they become. You know i guess maybe a little bit better than the american and the mountain west but not like it. I mean you know. You have oklahoma state of kansas basketball. You have some big brands in there but not significantly better than what a lot of the group of five especially those top. Two group out in western american offers. So i think Yes if texas and oklahoma move ahead without the big twelve is going to be scrambling. Did you stay alive to stay. Afloat and They're going to have to reach out. And i would think they would reach out to a minimum of four teams to try to get the twelve. Actually maps their name again in colorado state would certainly seem to be one that would be in the mix the the horrible thing. If you're a rams fan about all this is yes. You is really on the football stage which is really all anybody cares about in these things you as you can tell because. Kansas has a great basketball program but gets kind of left out of the Discussion all the time. When these things happen carta states made itself kind of irrelevant and these discussions with its football program in recent years it does not have a high profile program anymore. you don't. They're not winning games. They're losing games. They have You know their head. Coach doesn't show up for the conferences media days. I i you know. Obviously he had some personal things to attend to. I hope it wasn't. He said it wasn't anything emergency level when he did participate via zoom. But those little things those little things all start to add up you know. If you've got a a coach with the marquee name like jim mcelwain was here. Even mike bobo in his early years That helps if you've got you know the new stadium as the excitement of atari waning. Covert certainly didn't help and And so it's tough. This is certainly a great market For a big twelve school in a lot of ways it fits a lot of what i would think the big twelve would be looking for but that's football side of things is not where they want it to be. You know boise state. Byu schools like that..
