And they also do just, you know, they make it as easy as possible. When we took our daughter for a free consultation and we just had a great vibe from that first meeting.

3:09Our daughter felt great about it. We felt good about it. And that's who we went with. And all these years later, a bunch of our friends kids have gone there as well. Birch orthodontics.com is a website. B-U-R-C-H orthodontics.com. Promocode. Biggs. Biggs. Big teeth. Or just try big backs and see if it works. It probably will.

What's up, boys? Coming in hot Sunday from Louisville after the first game. Rubbish. I'm more excited to see all of you guys. What kind of move N Jomon from the college making? I'm thrilled I just want to live right now. In the world next year. Just what today's going to be. This is a great theme when I watch. Also virtual usual making semifinals. What's more likely after week one, we got a lot of stuff in theHAHAP are over a chance this weekend.

4:09We got Contr площ do process guy out tonight in aclick. cheap ones. And there's a bunch of different shapes and machty colors. flying my wife. So unavailable information. That's why you could get a variable and like not you know. Yeah, so man, I gotta hand out this. You know one thing for Ch Comic Con. right Jeff before the game? Absolutely. Yeah. We're going to be straight days. You get to meet the luminaries from workchat.com. The luminaries. There was a question to that. Did he interrupt it or? He interrupted it. But obviously, I'm used to it. He just wanted to know whether or not what was more likely after week one, an SMU blowout or an FSU blowout. And obviously Dustin, how about we in SMU blowout or an FSU win? What's more likely? I'm still leaning towards SMU blowout. I mean, they don't. But I guess they don't go on the... No, I guess you're probably right. I guess you're probably right. I just thought more likely. Oh, Lee, man. We're not talking about this St. Eric Dekker since SMU mustangs games.

5:10This is a Craig James. Yeah, Craig James. He's an awesome black guy. Yeah, Lee. Yeah, I mean, listen, I think Floor State can certainly play with SMU. I think they could beat SMU last week when we made our early predictions. I thought they would beat SMU. Most of us did. But it's just what that secondary looked like. I mean, that's this concerning. Again, not the talent. No. The way they performed. Look, man. You don't want to meet if that makes sense. We all know how talented you are. Yeah, but sometimes I just don't show up. If I'm not there writing and asking questions, it doesn't matter how talented. Exactly. Great point. Hey, Jeff, can real quick, there were a few contributions. Yeah, absolutely. And if you want me to, I have said it was finally proper. Okay, I can do it unless you're feeling eager. I don't care. It's just an old eager beaver over here. Corey told me to get on the contribution. Colin said, I'll be at the game. Monday versus SMU. Should I be quiet when we're on defense so they can hear each other? That is well done, Colin. That's very well done. That's the problem. People don't think about that. Yeah, it really is. Don't be part of the problem, Colin.

6:12Like actually, you could just go around shushing everybody. Guys, shut up. Let him here. Let him talk. Let him talk. Never lose your nerd writes burnt in sausage for the secondary promo code. If that continues, the burnt ends are delicious. Yeah, burnt ends are delicious. Yeah. A lot of ifs again, no more excuses are needed. This program is in deep trouble. That's from Ian McGregor. Thank you. Ian, we appreciate you. It feels that way. How about this team? This team might be in deep trouble. I just want to keep coming back to you. Program will be fine at some point. It will be. Yeah. I mean, again, it's a whole bit different world, but you know, you're, there's no way you're going to be bad forever. It just isn't likely. It is a rational. It's likely they won't be bad forever. It's rational, right? Like, let's throw the whole. There's hope out there on the horizon. I just don't know how far the horizon is. We're back in the prairie. Yeah. The problem here is, Corey, and I'm not trying to, I'm not trying to be the negative person here, but I just want to make sure we're here.

7:14Here we go. The reason is, why don't you go sit in that room? The reason the concern is is because, okay, this team may not be very good. May not be good at all. Maybe bad, which is possible, based on what we saw Saturday. If that's the case, then who's going to make the hire? Will they provide the resources to whoever gets the job to put together a roster that's commiserate with the teams you want to compete with? Yes. And are you stuck in the ACC forever? Those are all concerns. Those are all concerns. They're like in the backdrop. Pretty weighty. So that's why you might use program instead of team. I'm, you know, I'm the optimist, buddy. I'm with you. I'm just saying I see why there would be concerns. See why? Is he coming back? He is not. CJ says, if we get blown out versus him, you and Bama, is he fired? No, because I think you come back. I don't, I say them out by both. Blown out by both. No, because you're going to come back and beat Central Arkansas. So you're two and two back on solid voting. Central Arkansas is a good right game.

8:15I would think it would come down to Virginia. If you go and lose to Virginia at home to fall to two and three, other than just playing out the string and not wanting to have somebody be an interim coach, what would be the point? I think the thing is when you look at, when you look at the, what we've already seen in terms of ticket sales being down, which they are, Michael offered, it's finally, yeah, but ticket sales aren't going to go up when you fire the coach. I know. That's no. But my point is you already have evidence that people are, are not backing thing this program. So 3000 less ticket season ticket sales were sold, which is significant. Then you have donations to the NIL, the battles end, which we can't get firm figures on, but the perception is that the belief is your, your, you know, information from people you talk to is that that money is not what it normally is. So there are people that don't believe and then if you go get blown out by SMU and you get blown out by Alabama, I just don't know how many people are hopping in the car to

9:19come to Tallahassee for Central Arkansas or for Virginia. Oh, I get you're looking at your four games into the season. Yeah. And then half state. But I get it. My, my, my counter to that and I'm not saying I'm, I'd fire them. I'd have fired them last year, but I would have never let him get on the plane from California to never. Yeah, he'd, he'd still be walking before it's gumping it back. He wouldn't, I wouldn't allow any transportation by now. Yeah, he'd probably be back. But my point is if that, that can't be a reason to fire him because they're not going to come anyway. If you're, if your team is getting blown out by the likes of these teams, it's not like well, no, we got, at least we got Odell coach and let's go, but they're not going to do that. They're not going to show up either way. You be surprised, man. People will support their program once they know that you're no longer tolerating this. Oh, maybe, yeah, maybe. Yeah, you're right. I will see. I don't know. We'll see. Projecting, I wouldn't want to be like, ah, let's go watch this team that just got blown out twice. Go play Virginia with Tony White is the inner coach. I like this next one. It's funny. Uh, Porterhouse writes how fast was retlashly sans pants watching our game.

10:24You took him off in the bottom, man. Second quarter. All right, boys. Here we go. This is going to be a lot of fun. What a way to start the year. The numbers we're going to compile. He's like, he's called his coaching buddy. You see this? They're the middle of the field. They know the field. They don't know what they're doing again. He called Malzahn. He's like, did you know this? Did you probably had you seen this? Is this why you were tired? Proton Packing says nothing is fun about this Norvell program. Feels like an AI version of FSU football just lifeless, soulless and unnatural, exhausting. Okay. That's a really good description. I think you appreciate the donation. I think you're correct. I think it's a bear point. I just send it just more fiend samples next time instead of a... That was good. Hi, Jinks. Good to see you again, buddy. Hey, gentlemen. Coming into tally for the game on Monday, bringing my stepdaughter to first game at Doke. There we go. That'll be exciting. Congratulations. Yeah. He writes biggest concern. How's the Charlotte Renegade Hall? Goenhoals under the lights. Hopefully, it'll be electric.

11:24How is the food at Renegade Hall, Corey? I don't know. I have no idea what that is. I don't know. No. Might be an old timey rep. I can tell you how the Chick-fil-A is in the press box. Yeah. It's fine. It's edible. It's edible. We don't need on campus alone. Yeah, we don't get to eat. Sorry, we have no help there. Maybe some people in the chat will chime in and tell us how the thing is. And I do hope it's electric. I think there is a chance. I definitely think of it's a game in the third quarter, which by God, we're not asking for the world, Mike. If it's a game in the third quarter, that'll be a... I don't feel like SMU's used to playing in that kind of stuff. Nobody really... You know what I mean? I just think it'll be a really fun environment. It'll be an electric environment. Maybe they can win. I mean, I'll be able to last year. Coach B says, fellas, great seeing you guys... Great seeing you, Cory, on Friday night. I didn't get a chance to talk to Ira or Jeff maybe next time. How great was it seeing a confident Lopez back there as a punt returner? I loved it. Yeah. I agree with that. Look good. Look good doing it.

12:24Got a talk, Coach B. Let's go. That's good. I'm sure if we... The punter himself didn't look all that confident, but the first one... Not the first one. The punt returner, even the second one, he got a crazy role. It wasn't impressive. Yeah. The punt returner, but that was sneaky by design. Just let's kick at 34 yards. No, the angle with the low line drive. The low line drive? Yeah, I don't know, man. I watched him and warm up, and he never did it. He didn't want to unveil. Yeah, I was surprised. Yeah. Yeah. Now, last week, it's probably in the football facility in their special Vi punting room. As Jimbo would say, Shanghai. Yeah. Lastly, put his pants back on. Yeah. Oh, no problem here. Yeah. We have a practice this and all. Yeah, we don't got an answer for. Jonathan says, yay sausage. Real quick, by the way, Ed and the chat says the food and renegade hall is really good. So we'll trust. Let's go. No, it's recommendation. Yay sausage writes, Jonathan. We all like Coach Norbell personally. The 2023 stub mentally changed him, like lingering hamstring injury.

13:27He and the university haven't been able to successfully rehab that injury. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I certainly didn't help him, but I think that we're still falling back on excuses anymore. Valveline McGillicuddy says, what positive stat from Saturday do you think is being overlooked the most and why does it matter moving forward? He points out that he thinks six of six in the red zones, a big deal. It's a positive, especially after what happened last year. That is a big deal. I also think, although the opponent matters greatly, I think Tony White made a good point when he talked about the run defense that it wasn't as if if a guy broke a tackle, it's out the gate. They were never close to any gates. And that was good to see. Now it wasn't a Mexico state, but I thought the run defense looked good. Yeah. I mean, you're right to put the caveat. Yeah, there's a big. We're the worst rushing team in America. It's a big caveat, but they did, they did surround the ball. They pursued the ball. They did well on the perimeter in the screen game. There was some things to like. I thought by or in Chris Jones, I got a fire flashed couple.

14:27Yeah, man, he played 17 snaps and Omar Graham played 30. Why? Why is that continually having packages, man? They did a ton of subs. Chris Jones played 30 snaps out of 66. I'd like to see a few less packages personally. Yeah. Yeah. You've been saying that your whole life. You've been saying that your whole life. Yeah, it's worth the Libby. Cory and I've been literally during the game. We're just like, how many steps do these guys get in? Like literally half the team is running out of time. They get on the field every play. Oh, it's a second eight package. Oh, it's a third and four pack. And I get it. I understand I'm not in the end of the thought. I understand that you do. You can't play 11 players on defense. I feel like there's just there could be some limits to it. And it might help with community. That also helped that also again, booze me a little in that. I feel like that rotation will be whittled down. It's one thing to try to play 25. You thought that about running backs last year too, Cory. Well, that's Gus. He's a wild card. But I think I think the rotation. Hopefully the defense rotation will be whittled down and you realize,

15:29let's keep our best players on the field the most. And I brought up in 2021 when Ira legitimately threatened to just like, I don't want to do this anymore. I don't like this job in the first half of the Louisville game when they, I mean, they lost the game, but they were down 34, they give up 34 points in the first half. And Adam Fuller at halftime essentially said, we're not rotating any guys anymore. We're going to play our best guys and screw all that. And the defense was actually decent. Wasn't that the game where Brownlee showed up in that second half, started hitting people? Yeah, or maybe he got taken off the, no, Brownlee. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Brownlee, yeah. I was thinking of Travis J. Yeah. But they, they just stopped playing every, so many guys, they whittled it down. They got their best players on the field and said, suck it up. You're going to play a lot and they were much better. And maybe that will happen. I need to read this question because we got, I'm sure this has been on the boards and I know I got emails and tweets about it. But if we want to expand on this, there's not a lot we can say because we don't know what the truth is. But Garrett wants to know if the Devon Cara situation would be a reason that might, and Rebell could be fired with cause. And I think there's wishful thinking. Well, that'd be something. No, but I think there's wishful thinking out there amongst the contingent of the fan

16:31based on if that's happened, any of that's true, then we should fire them. But honestly, for those that don't know what that is, if you want to go with it, I would go ahead. Sure. Yeah. So Dexter Carter, former FSU All-American, former first round draft pick in the NFL, his son, Devon Cara's a freshman, who looked to be having a promising freshman off season in the spring. He and J. Rock, he and Justin Lopez were kind of mentioned all the time together as those two guys are going to play this year. In the preseason, we weren't hearing much about Devon Cara as much. It felt like there was some separation there. We started wondering what happened there. Turns out he got a couple of injuries. One is he had bruised ribs and then he kept playing through that and apparently broke some small bones in his back, which sounds awful. It's not the end of the world. So it's something that can keep you out a couple of few weeks. It's sometimes getting last longer, but it's not a debilitating injury. And it usually, it heals itself. You don't need surgery. So it's a negative thing. The problem is Dexter, who's, listen man, Dexter Cara is Dexter Cara. He's going to say what he thinks. He's going to say what he means. He famously got into a fight in the NFL with who's the line back, the Roman

17:33Ascii. Apparently, he told the story once of him and Bill Roman Ascii getting into a fight in the, in the, whatever lounge over the microwave. Like Bill Roman Ascii, like took Dexter Cara's food out of the microwave. And Dexter Cara, that is like some Roman Ascii. Just walked it, moved it, put his thing in there. And Dexter lost his blank and then went, got in. They went after him. He's going around. That's who Dexter Cara is. You got, that's going to come with Dexter Cara. Well anyway, he went on social media and kind of complained that a, he didn't feel like his son should have been hit when he was already wearing a non-contact Jersey from being having the bruised ribs, which is what happened. That's how he led to the back injury. And also he felt like maybe the coaching staff didn't communicate it well to him. So there's some frustration there. Is there a possibility it leads to something else in terms of like, I, I, I, I, that's a very common thing with players and coaches and parents. That happens every day around the country. Players are not happy about, or players parents are not happy sometimes about their kids practicing when they're injured and that kind of thing.

18:35So I don't, I wouldn't assume that that's your $55 million dollar, get out of jail free card. But why not? Yeah. I'm just glad he went to social media and let everybody know about it. It's important to race there and make sure you, the one thing I was much, let me, let me let me defend Dexter there on that though. I do think this is where Mike Norvell and his approach with injuries. I think does a great disservice to players because because there are times when players won't play or they're, they're getting passed on the depth chart and he won't tell you. You won't say that they're injured. So we just have to assume that they're either not any good or they're not practicing hard or there's something going on there. But if you would just say, yeah, he's got an injury. He's been banged up a little bit. He'll be fine. But it's been a long time. I think that was where Dexter was frustrated is all spring. I'm here to my son and Jason Lopez. And now in the preseason, all we hear about is Jason Lopez and my kids hurt and you're not letting people know that. Yeah. I can see the frustrations. And then you let him get hurt worse playing in the night. But it must have been okay. I guess because Dexter was on the sidelines for the game on Saturday. He was on the sidelines wearing his son's jersey. So I mean, I don't know.

19:38All his under the water in the bridge, but Norvell didn't tell him to get his ass off the sideline. I would have loved to have seen that confrontation. It would have been fun. Maybe that's where if Norvell gets a score to state needs. That coach getting in a fight with a former all American and a player's dad dirty rights. Why can't Norvell recruit and develop a starting quarterback? Well, yeah, it's a legitimate concern, dirty. Nobody does anymore. Why can't Mario? Nobody does anymore. It's a matter of concern. Mario just goes and gets them. I think that the track record here at quarterback is deserved a question. Spotty. Another better question is why can't you get a better player out of the portal? Maybe. No, I think the fair question is how come all the quarterbacks you sign never went on to do anything? They don't go somewhere else. Brock Lane just got beat out by Western, Western Kentucky. Did you really just got beat out of the USF? Yeah, none of them went anywhere and did it. The Duffy disappeared. Who was the other? I mean, the Duffy's playing a Eastwich. Yeah, no, he is playing somewhere. It's like New Haven. Shubba Perty as I said.

20:38Yeah, Shubba Perty never did anything anywhere else. Yeah, Ron Maker. Yeah, inability to identify the talent and develop it at all is pretty. No, 100%. He doesn't get a pass for that. I'm just saying like none of the good schools develop their own. It's fine, but yeah, it's an understandable complaint. Yes. 92.0, are you starting to doubt Tony White's scheme and not just the talent level? Lack of physicality at the point of attack and coverage confusion appear to be the fundamental issues and not just a lack of talent or occasional miscommunication. Well, there's a lot to be concerned about. 92.0. I think we're all very concerned with the inability to apply the knowledge that Tony White has in a way that players digested and execute a scheme that makes any sense at all. Yeah, I think week to week, we've all wondered at times whether or not they practiced. Yeah, but there are moments in time, not every game, but there are games where you go, did we prepare at all for any of this? I mean, we were flabbergasted by what happened last year with the pit game. Yeah. I mean, flabbergasted. Yeah. He's had bad moments. He's also unbelievable bad.

21:39There was some good to decent, good to very good moments last year too. And again, I think I just, I want to hold out judgment on how good or bad he is this season, but after just one game. Yeah, that's fair. That's all fair. That part's fair. Because I do think there's like, I thought they, I thought they were physical at the lightest image. Russian, the pastor, the kid got rid of it in two seconds. What are you going to do? The problem is if he's getting rid of it in two seconds, get your ass up on the receivers. Well, but that's my point. Yeah, no, I get it. I get what you guys point. Yes. It's like, hey man, it's a good point, but why you have succeeded. So, but he's had, he has succeeded. I think the frustration is you have players have played a lot of college football. It's a overalls KJ Kirkland. Not only they played a lot of college football, they've been in your system for two years. And they're, do they not know the down in distance? Do they not know that it's, they got to get 12 yards. So you shouldn't be bailing out to 25 yards down the field like, or that you can't just let them catch the ball eight yards. You know, I mean, that's the part the awareness seemed to be a situational awareness. Not great.

22:39Not great. Not great. Didn't feel coordinated. Civil headlines, 93 real talk where the war chant TV continues in a moment. When we decided to offer Seminole headlines merchandise to you headliners, I knew what I wanted to sell. I just didn't necessarily know how to run an online store. And that's one of the things I really like about Shopify. You don't have to have all the answers before you get started. Getting the storefront up and running was really straightforward and Shopify's designed tools made it possible for me to build something that actually looked like our brand without having to become a web designer. And when things get busy, you know, like during football season, I can still keep up with the business for my phone and know what's happening with sales and orders. That's huge for me. Shop pay is another big one. It makes checkout incredibly easy for my customers, which means there's less friction between somebody finding something they love in our store and actually buying it. If a friend asked me whether I'd recommend Shopify, I'd tell them you don't have to know everything. You just need to have something you believe in and Shopify makes the business side a whole lot easier. If you're ready to hear the of your first sale today, head over to Shopify.com slash

23:44Warchant. Start your free trial today. That's right. Start your free trial at Shopify.com slash Warchant. That's Shopify.com slash Warchant. It does feel awful lot like we could all use it to bellow. Hmm. That tasty ice cold to bellow. This is the answer to our problems these days, man. I don't know what else to do. And this is a first Friday. Oh, that's right. I that's right. And we don't play on Saturday. So you could get a little loose. You could. You could as long as you have a way home. A safe way home. If you're coming to tell Asi, but to develop brewery up in Thomasville, Georgia, just up in across the state line. Right when you get to downtown Thomasville, Metropolis downtown Metropolis. I was timed it out lately. I think seven and a half minutes. You can be there in the blink of an eye. And they've got all the different craft brews, a bunch of different the IPAs, the stouts, the logger. We love the coffee blonde. They also have the frozen silvers, which are really good as well. Tasty. And the temperatures are going to start coming down here.

24:44But at first Friday in Thomasville, on Friday evenings, they basically you have a, you can get wristbands where you can go from bar to bar restaurant to restaurant and get drinks. And I think you're allowed to walk around with your drink. It's like being in a European capital. I feel like it's the battery in Atlanta. That's exactly what I'm saying. And then you go to the small, small, maybe Thomas County Central football game afterwards, like you do the Braves game. There you go. By the way, Lincoln Yikes. Well, but they do that to everybody by the way. That's what I mean, Lincoln's they wouldn't have to Leon. The Lions wouldn't have any. Not the two and O Lions. Yeah, they won't like both their first two games. Yeah. Who they want? They're wins. If you've done Matt, that's right. If you can be one, right? You can be a man for it. I mean, Matt for it. Don't you go down this road? Yeah. You want to it might be a nice little fall of football here in Tallahassee is what I'm saying. Somebody pointed some friend of mine pointed out that the FSU's record since you sang seminal wind in the bill is not very good. But it is. I'm not taking I'm not taking responsibility for that.

25:45Just interesting. I'm not taking it all. But I was new. They're going really well. Hey, let me ask you question. Did did I get an ACC championship? Because I did. I did. You can take credit, but you can't take blame. Exactly right. He did after that calendar year. Sweet P silver Fox and Jeff. I miss my first home opener since Swag surf. And all I know is you've got to get the hell up out of the ACC watching Tom deep drive to left by Castellano Spriniman and team who James on the CW may be long for Moons and Tested Tour. He said big dinner bus. That was well done. So Des Bryant was the sideline reporter like that. Des Bryant. What I was told is that right? The offensive lineman former offensive lineman wasn't the white receiver. That makes more sense. Like that guy's in broadcast. No, all right. All right. Tom Brennan. We don't even need to comment. It was just so funny to whip. Glenn Wright say guys great. Go ahead. What was the shoot?

26:45There was something else at the beginning is. We're now trying to remember where sweet P came from. Who knows? Do you remember? I called you sweet P. Yeah. And he pissed him off so that people started following up on it. It was great. Perfect. Different caliber opponent writes trick no, but I felt similar about the New Mexico state performance as I did Georgia Tech in Dublin. Didn't look prepare well coach. Are ready to play safe for that first drive over in Dublin. I'm concerned. Norbell. Yeah. And that first drive boys will never forget it. Hearken back to 2023. We were all right next to each other at a beautiful Aviva. The way it was gorgeous and they went marching down the field. We said, is it as Kate is on? Sorry jackets. Sorry guys. Like a summer romance. Oh, man. There's just that one fleeting. Slating that one night on the beach in Mexico. Damn it. What happened or any how he goes on to say Norbell even busted out classic look hopelessly to the heavens pose. He's got to stop with that. He does it way too long. We need to do it. We need to do it. Oh yeah, several moments when I went back and watched the game on TV.

27:47There's like three times they catch it. Well, and the problem is all these directors. They know. They know what to look for it. Yep. Yeah. Yeah. I can't believe we didn't convert on that play. I'm like, well, you can believe it. It's like the NCAA March Madness TV cruise looking for the crying flute player. Yeah, the kids. Yeah, the kids in here. Six year old. And I tell you this, post season baseball. Get me a woman with prayer hand. It's a big pitch coming up. Get me this. Get me a woman with prayer hand. Yeah. So that's on the list. And Mike Norbell looking up to the skies is on their list. I like the Dan. There's no Hampshire Seminole points this out as an observation because it sounds like maybe Dan. I don't know this. You've had experience. You're right. If anything, Mike Norbell should resign so that the poor guy can get his voice back. Dude sounds like you just woke up in a New Mexico brothel after smoking a carton of unfiltered camels and down in a bottle or two of moonshine. That's very specific. Yeah. That's very fair. Yeah. He's been there. Dan's had some fun. Dan, they don't have brothels in New Mexico.

28:48You got to go one state over. Here's the thing about right now. That's what you told me. Always. Here's the thing about Norbell's reactions is it's exactly what we were talking about with the fan base. Like that's a carryover from yeah, last year and a year before. It's like dude, this is a new team. You've talked about how this is a new team with a new attitude. Two quarters in. You shouldn't be looking like how why is this still happening to me? Not great. Yeah. It shouldn't be why is this still happening to me. It should be why is this happening to me. This is weird. Yeah. Yeah. It's a new team. Yeah. My man's never going to live this down and I knew he wouldn't as soon as he said it yesterday and I went empty. Oh, here we go. No, do you get well and I was pissed about that. I wasn't good. We didn't realize they were an imp so often you didn't. Well, that's disconcerting. No, Florida man writes, do you guys think it will be too loud a joke for the defense this week? They're very concerned about the noise. I don't know that he was so it is weird. I remember asking like Ramsey or Darby or one of those guys, maybe it was PJ, one of

29:50the guys from that secondary. Like when it's so loud, nobody talks about that. Like it's got to be really hard to communicate when you're on defense and the places you can't hear yourself think. It's hard on the offense but you're trying to talk to and he's like, yeah, we have to, it's hard. You have to run up and scream in the guy's ear hole if a team's huddling or you have to have to have signals. You have hand signals. You have hand signals first of all. Father's me about it is like, you know, I brought this up on wake up, but like if you have a, if you have a 3D virtual reality room, can you not put some speakers in there and practice with crowd noise? Like don't just use crowd noise speakers when you're going to play Syracuse on the road or Clemson on the road. You need it. Your defense needs it if you're playing a big home game. It also wasn't a shock that there was a crowd there. And they were kind of excited on a third. So I blame a defensive coach in America wants the noise and they want to be in third and eighth, third and ninth repeatedly. I can understand him. And it's a reason. And it's not a, it's not like he was complaining about the crowd.

30:52I want to make sure people don't miss because not everybody watches these press conferences. He wasn't complaining about the crowd. It's something like Dan Mullin would do. Right. He was just explaining how there could be some miscommunication and a couple of those plays. You have a young guy. He's trying to communicate. Doesn't realize that they're going quick and that's what happens. But still not great. Tom writes, what are you ready for at this? They'll be ready for it on Monday. They're going to be ready for a crowd noise on third down. What are your thoughts on the Red Sea defense? Seriously, I don't know how a P4 defensive coordinator thinks it's okay to blitz linebackers while playing soft coverage and how do they not realize how often they went empty? This is going to be one of 19. So I'll skip ahead. But I'm saying that. Listen, that none of that gibberish made any sense. I'm saying we didn't realize how often they went empty or Isaiah Williams didn't realize they were in empty. The way he said it sounded like we didn't realize. But was he, he might have been speaking like because he didn't want to throw Isaiah Williams under the bus and saying we is in the collective. I hope that's a case. Didn't realize they were in empty. I'm assuming that's the case. Yeah.

31:53I made more care of what he said. I think he was saying that he didn't realize they were in empty. That's why he wasn't on the line of scrimmage like he was supposed to be. Maybe. After what? Tony White's been a good coordinator before. Yes. You know what I mean? Like he's not an idiot. So let's hope that. Well, mine was at once. One 19 games in a row. You remember those days, Ira? Were we still here? Were we doing the show? That was a dream. Brick writes after rewatching the game in a couple days removed. Has there been any change regarding the expectations you have for the game against SMU? It's got to be harder than I thought it was going to be. How about it? I thought it was going to be hard anyway. Yeah. I know. I don't feel as good about it. I think I'm sure that's the thing that looks. Yeah. Yeah. Because again, my feeling about this team was because of everything we've heard about, and which I believe I'm not saying it's not true. I believe these guys did work hard in the off season. I believe they did put in extra hours. I believe all that's true, but you have to go out and do it.

32:53You have to be prepared and you have to go out and execute. And I would have felt better. I honestly, you said earlier, you'd feel better if you would have felt better. If I felt worse if they just weren't good enough physically, I don't know, man. At least if you're if you're if you're buttoned up, then you can play to the best of your abilities. If you're not going to do what you're supposed to do, then it doesn't matter how talented you are. So I don't know. But that's a big job to make that. And I'm not saying you're making that, but like that they're just not going to be a team that plays buttoned up because of one game. It's the only sample size we have, and it was a bad one. But it was also week zero and late August. Like again, this was it. They got that they got to iron so they hopefully are ironing the last time we saw this football team was in Gainesville where you had guys making business decisions because they didn't want to do that. That was this. Yeah. So that's one issue. Yeah. Then you and that was coming off a couple weeks after the pick game, which was another issue. And then you have now you have this. So it's just a different issue. And so it's just it's hard to it's hard to believe what word you're hearing because

33:53you the product is just not good. Yeah. And they don't deserve the benefit of the doubt. Stevens writes we were playing the ratings game for the revshare on Saturday. Can't wait for Alfred to tweet out that it was CW's record viewership. Yeah. Keep them tuned in the fourth quarter. They were right. Yeah. Hey, they got to get this is another Jacksonville State Mary. Yeah. It's unbelievable. I got to blow it. Oh, he dropped the pastor. That's a touchdown. Yeah. We got a game pressure. If that young man holds on. Yep. Yep. By the way, that Jacksonville State reference heard that and stands a lot. Especially as it got a little little sphinctery. By the way, a little so after that at 1710, we haven't talked about this. We haven't really talked about the game. Little sphinctery. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I norvel. I wanted Jaws opinion on fourth and five at the 46. I have a desperate moment, right? But maybe a confident moment. But also I like that he did it. Like it was almost like man, I'm not FN or I'm tired of this. Let's go.

34:54I'm not sure why the players. They can't cover that kid out there. Let's convert this and let's go score. And it was good to see that to make that play. And that was a big play. It's weird to say you had a big play. It's New Mexico State in the third quarter, but you did. That was a big play. Well, I like about it is. From a preparation standpoint, you, you, you called it, you didn't have to call time out before you forked out. They just ran the play. Do you know what he was supposed to be doing? Ashton knew what he was supposed to be doing? They're both old. They actually blocked it up. Yes, it was blocked. Locked that was on the run times. Sneaky big play. Um, you're only up by 10 and it's third down again and making that throw to bogs getting that first down and then him snake into the half yard line. Like, if you have to settle for a field goal there, you're up 13 with five minutes to go and it really starts to feel like Jacksonville state again. They start marching down the field. So that's a sneaky. They're nice play. They're definitely were things that I did like. I mean, I actually, I was really, I liked the fact that after New Mexico State scored and then Singleton has the long kickoff return to get you midfield. They basically just

35:55ran it down their throats. Yeah, at that point, the Mexico state looked gas, which was good. I mean, I ought to be that I wanted to see that. Yeah. Um, Joseph writes now that we've seen both offense and defense play, which is more likely to happen on Monday that Jason Lopez has a reception or that the defensive line gets a sack. That was not, you know, I think a sack is more likely. Yeah, he's pretty tough kid to bring down, but he also will stay in the pocket and wear a couple. Yeah. Well, the other thing is I do think bogs. If I, I, it was one play, man, but I really like that play. And he's been so good behind the scenes. He hasn't done a ton on game day, but they love him so much to see what they love on a game day. And maybe he'll get some confidence from that. I think that pushes Jason Lopez a little bit further down the depth. I just don't know if this is a game. They didn't rotate much on, on offense at all. As it wasn't, I mean, there's, it'll, I don't know, 17 guys played. I'm not sure the number. What are the four wide receivers that played those four? And so I just, I don't know that they're going to be, I think it's going to be even tighter in this game in terms of who's getting the ball. I just really like, because we've,

37:00we've begged for this to be the case. We watch it every weekend. Everybody that has a guy back there to return punts catches the ball effortlessly like an athlete. They don't, I mean, it's, it's the stuff you can do when you're chasing. No, no, no, no, it's like when you're 12 hours, it's not my fault. Stop. No, no, you're broken. You're just broken. Sorry, because listen, when you watch early on, you know the kids that can catch, right? You see people who have iHan coordination. Like guys returned punts in high school and kickoffs in high school and they did it with the greatest of ease. I was around two guys that never dropped one. And it's not hard. It's not hard to catch the ball. It isn't. They do way harder things all the time. We know that. But it looked like pulling teeth like we, we couldn't find a guy to catch the ball with any degree of athletic. Even squirrel who had done it in the SEC. Yeah, look. I just think it goes back to the coaching. I think like tell that kid go catch everything. Absolutely everything. Unless you have to die for it. And he did it with grace. He did it like an athlete does it like, okay,

38:05I can see the trajectory of the ball. I know how to catch. I'll get on. I can go. I can go to the spot where it's going to land as opposed like an outfielder as opposed to catching it on the run. Yeah, they're like a parishionic off. Yeah. Or just a relatively decent high school outfielder. Modern day, modern day parishionic off. Kind of like Colton Couser last night. You see that? It's great catch. Catch the year. Yeah. To get on the same. He gets a 500 for the first time. He's hard to do that. He's probably on the field. He gets hurt all the time. He runs in a while. I'm not. I'm just saying he does get hurt a lot. Uh, some of the headlines come back, wrap it up overtarily. 93 Real Talk. Where do you work? You're a TV.

I will say, fellas, there's a group of about seven different questions that we had on what week they think they would fire in or about if, if now, of course, I mean, you're not surprised by that, but but they some of these were rationally proposed and deposited here. If they get housed by SMU and

40:15then get beat down by Alabama, they want to know like would you think they would wait much longer than that? Like you could, like what if they lose by 30 to SMU on Monday? Amar, Amar, who's rational, says like you got the buy week, why wouldn't you just move on in the hope that fans realize that the administration sees what they see. So do it after the SMU game too. How many coaches have been fired in week two? It's rare, but it has happened. Not saying it couldn't happen. I'm just saying it's not. Well, also the time the reason would be is that if you didn't fire them in the off season and you brought them back, you're going to fire them after two games, you like a fool. That's what I'm saying. Like I don't know that they would do that. They would almost be opposite and say, no, no, no, we we're not going to admit that we made a mistake or that we made, we're going to see this thing through. Yeah, definitely a curious situation. It would be crazy to fire if you to bring him back and then fire him. It would be I hear you, but like we're talking about extreme circumstances and they get blown out. Yeah, and I think that's what that's what Saturday did is it changed what what I mean, I think a lot of people thought was possible in

41:17the SMU game. I thought there was a decent chance they would lose the SMU game, right? I did not expect them to be blown out by SMU and I don't expect them to be blown out, but if it's on the table now, you're not talking about that. Yeah, because if you do that, you're going to get blown out. Yeah, if you play like that on defense, you're going to get blown out. That's all. So that's on the table. I get it. And I certainly at this point, I feel like they're going to be one and two going into Central Arkansas, but it's like I just you brought them back. Well, and then the first side of I know it's not it's real trouble, but the first side of trouble for this team, warming signs, it makes you it makes you go back and be like, well, what did you bring them back for? Well, of course, I've been yelling about that. So that that would be that you'd be admitting your mistake so quickly that it would decide you have to. Well, you got if it's going to happen either way, just to save face, I feel like you'd wait a few more weeks and let him coach against his alma mater. Let let that be his last game. How about that? How about that? Oh, yeah, if you fired him before he got to play his alma mater.

42:17It's a toughy. Could have done it right after Memphis beat your ass. Brandon writes. Yeah, game four after the under the season. Brandon writes, how do you think Alfred Collins and McCullough were feeling watching that on Saturday? Not good. Not good. Not good. And the problem is, everybody knows who made this decision. I mean, everybody knows who runs this university, this athletic department, those three guys. And so it's in the good times. It's awesome. It's a great gig when you're when you're football program beats Alabama. But then when you have to deal with the other side of it, it's not fun. And they hear about it all the time. I know they heard about it all last season. And they're hearing it about it again. Philip says happy September, gentlemen, football wins will be coming. What is the record for the rest of the season when Mike is fired after the Miami game? It's just going to be guys. I can't. I'm going to have to. I was going to say like if you're going to, if you feel if they get blown out by SMU or Lou, let's say they lose 34 to 17. Is that a blowout? It's not right. Did we think we're not calling Florida State blowing out at home?

43:22But if you lose by 17 the next two weeks, if you lose by 17 to Alabama, they're fighting. They're out there fighting. And then you beat you, but you know it's coming. You know the end is near. There are other good rest areas to get off the highway and make this decision then just right after the out then sorely in the season. There's by weeks up and down the schedule. There's, you know, you've got the Louisville Miami back to back. That's a good time to rip that band off right after that Miami game. I just think if you're not very competitive in those games, if those games are decided, if you know before halftime that they're not winning either of those games, I just I think it's going to be a dark crowd. I worry about it. That's tough. Can we do the other side, the flip side though? What would it have to be like this year to give him an extension? An extension? An extension? Wow. I mean, I'm defeated. But even then, no extension. You saw six more years. So no extension at all? No chance. I thought you meant what would it take for him to save his job? No, no, like we're already fired him after a win. I'm trying to, I'm trying

44:26to be Mr. Paz. It was like, what would it have to take to connect? National championship. We hold a week, we have 17. If you're weak in national championship, Austin, what if he gets to the national championship game? Nope. That's not good enough. Nope. All right. Just add in a year. Just add a year. You don't have to go crazy like you did last time. Ryan wants to know when does the climb begin? If they were like 10 or 11 wins. And if I'm Richard McCullough or Peter Collins or any of them and the phone rings in Jimmy Sexton, I just take it throw it in the lake. Yeah. Well, no, then you're throwing your phone away. Yeah, but he get the point. I get it. I guess they I had a bad thing. If Jimmy Sexton calls me, I'm sending back a picture of my ass cheeks. That's what he's getting. It's just my ass cheeks. There's no chance I'm answering your call, pal. Forget about it. If you call him back and you're like, did you like that? You get to see the other side? Here you go, buddy. Keep calling. Keep calling. I can get more imaginative. Yeah. Yeah. There's no there's no way. Yeah. I'm going to stop reading

45:26because most of the questions center around firing his ass. And this is after one week. I will just say this guy. He's got it's his eighth win and two seventeen. I'm just going to say this guy's moving forward and you guys can ask whatever you want. You have the freedom to do that. But if they lose against SMU, I just understand we already have the question about when is he going to be fired. I don't need seventy two of them. I mean, we did that. I feel you. I know you're pain. I'm living it with you. We're all pissed. I'm very pissed. You also can look at the the the other previous posts and see how many times it's been asked if it's special on Facebook. But hey, man, maybe they could be good this year. I was looking Jeff. What was trying to get a reaction on Jeff? He didn't even say anything. I hear you say that every week. Well, legitimately, we don't know yet. Week zero is a tough thing to gauge and teams do get the problem as I pointed out on my YouTube premium thing that I did. This coach does not have a history since he's been here of his teams improving. No, as the season goes. Writing the ship even. No. So he said today. Actually,

46:29he sat on his in a Tuesday press conference. I hope Saturday is the worst game we play. Yeah, that was a good line. It's a great line. Did you include that in your story? I don't think so. You can go back and throw it in there. But I like I make it a column after the on Monday night. I might use it for Monday night. But like that's the hope is that your first game is your worst game. Yeah, and it's entirely possible. I don't think it's going to be a good team no matter what, but they could play a much better game this Monday. They could win that game. If they play well, they can be decimal. Sure. And we're not playing Ohio State. Almost everybody on their schedule. If they play well, they can win. It's just a matter of. Can they play? When do they play well? What got me? What got me a little skittish, which was just seeing the guys who've been in the system, been in the defense looking at loss and tentative. Ashland Barker is supposed to be the leader of that secondary. And in the first half, he was not providing a lot of confidence for you. Gibrald didn't look great. KJ Kirkland didn't look great when he was I mean, Ricky Knight's

47:30been here three years now. It's, you know, there's no new position. But still, yeah. And, Corey, you remember you brought it up last week. You wanted to see if they could get pressure without having to bring. Yeah, but I really don't. I understand how quickly the ball came out. I will tell you that the entirety of that game with their front seven. I know they flexing in out of looks. 6.9% have a grade is a really low number. They had to he had to dial up pressures because they couldn't get it on. Yeah, I think we'll we'll know more about that as the season goes on. I don't think most teams are going to be like we're scared of Florida State's past rush. I mean, SMU is going to have some time back. He's going to he's going to dial up some things that take some time. That will be a much better game. Yeah, the problem is this pocket mobility is exceptional. Oh, right. But I mean, you can still see if you have a you can have the makings of a decent past rush up front. I like the Anderson kid at times. Um, and I do think the deceers, although not much production, they're pushing guys back. They are. They were stonewall had moments of that. And certainly they stopped the run. I agree with you there. I didn't the Texas A&M kid didn't do

48:32anything for me. I know I know what Tony said. Yes, Jay. Yeah, he had the one sack in the game. But it wasn't it was Jay. Uh, I keep want to call him Jamal Anderson. Jaylen Anderson. I think I had the 30 birds. Yeah. Oh, bring that. Wouldn't that be cool? Yeah. The Saxon. How does that even do that? For God, how you do the dirty show you during the break? Oh, perfect. I say the Macarena. What year was that 98, man? So you can never forget Eugene Robinson's listen. No, Tom. Yeah, he was a man of the year. And then he was a man of the year. You weren't Thomas. Bill. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'd or I'd gone to about Austin. He pulled a jet. You know, we have the dirty bird content. Say goodbye. Yes. Yeah. I'm a bad. We're leaving. Peace out. Bonus hour. Fourth coming. Stay with. Hang in. Be good. Everybody.
