Number three, Texas, went on the road and defeated number 24, Texas A&M, by the score of 17-7. Texas A&M best player was Quinn Ewers. Unfortunately, he's the quarterback for the Texas Longhorns.
Starting point is 00:03:10 He almost gave this game away, Ocho. He almost gave it away. If Texas A&M could have done anything offensively, they beat Texas because Ewers did not play particularly well last night. A bad interception. He fumbled the ball when he was going. This game should have been put away Ocho in the third quarter. Long time.
Starting point is 00:03:28 Long time ago. Listen, the Longhorns defense, I mean, they played a critical role, obviously, playing. They forced some turnovers, shutting out the Aggies offense in the first half. But the Aggies, obviously, if they could have got something going offensively, they didn't have a chance, nor did they capitalize on any of the turnovers that they got. The game could it could have been somewhat close in the plays that they made offensively and the turnovers that that not the Aggies, the turnovers that the Longhorns got.
Starting point is 00:03:57 You know, they were able to capitalize and shut this game out. Now, the biggest test for Texas now is that championship game. That championship game. The kind of defense Texas played tonight, this is exactly what we're going to need in all three phases, whether it's offensively, defensively, and special teams because they're playing a Georgia team that dominated the first time they played up front. The battle of this game and the chance of winning this game
Starting point is 00:04:24 is going to start up front with that the battle of this game and the chance don't win in this game is going to start up front with that off the line defensive line being able to be stout on defense and the offensive line being able to hold up and that offense making the plays they need to play and quinn errors can't make the mistakes he made tonight against the georgia team that will capitalize and pounce on any turnovers that they have yeah you're right until the first timechoa. The first time they played, Georgia went into Austin and beat them up. They just beat them up mentally, physically, emotionally. They really did some damage on them. But give Sark credit for getting these guys to bounce back.
Starting point is 00:04:57 They come back, and they played really, really well, and they worked their way back into the SEC championship game. You're right. They got a pick-six touchdown, Texas A&M. They got another forced fumble, and they got stopped on the goal line. See, I don't understand that, Ocho, because you need two scores anyway. One way or another, you're going to need two scores. And if you really think about it, Ocho,
Starting point is 00:05:20 you hadn't had a whole lot of success running the football. At some point in time, you've got to put the guy and give him a two-way go. Son, if the guy's not wide open, run it in. But if there's a throw to be made, we're going to need you to make a throw. But to just hand the ball off and just run into the line of scrimmage, Texas was waiting
Starting point is 00:05:37 for that. I mean, that showed me that you really don't trust. That showed me you didn't really trust your quarterback. Yeah, I understand Ocho. He is a freshman, but at some point in time in order for you to win, we know this, no matter what the level, your quarterback's going to have to make a play.
Starting point is 00:05:54 He's going to have to put the ball up. He's going to have to make a play one way or another, and you've got to trust him that he's going to make a smart decision. He's going to make the right decision. He's going to make the right play. But give Texas credit. They could because you could feel about that pick six.
Starting point is 00:06:14 They go right back down there and then yours gets stripped sack. I mean, stripped on the – he's sliding. I thought, man, Texas A&M got the momentum now. They're at home. That crowd started – Brian Field started rocking. You know, Ocho, they put 108,000 the house that Johnny built. Man.
Starting point is 00:06:34 But give Tech, give Sark. I thought Sark did an unbelievable job. I always thought he was a very good offensive-minded coach. He has great people around him to make things happen. Texas A&M did not play well tonight, Ocho. After NC State beat UNC 35-30 at Kenan Stadium, Wolfpack safety D.K. Coffman hoped to plant the flag at midfield,
Starting point is 00:06:58 but UNC wide receiver J.J. Jones ran to a group of NC State players, took the flag, and threw it towards the Wolfpack bench. A brawl between the two teams broke out, and the staff members attempted to break it up. Tar Heel players wouldn't leave the logo at the 50-yard line until the field cleared. Hey.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Rivalry week, baby. They must have been listening to Kendrick's album, Squabbling. Hey, them boys was out there squabbling, you know? Again, they had the opportunity to fight, huh? They had an hour. They had an hour.
Starting point is 00:07:34 60 minutes. They had 60 minutes to prevent this from happening. Obviously, what are you going to do when you win your rivalry game? You're going to celebrate. What do you normally celebrate, whether it be basketball, whether it be football, in the middle of the field where the goddamn logo is? Yes. There's nothing you can do about it.
Starting point is 00:07:51 And I think there's nothing wrong with it. There's nothing wrong with it. And you know what? A little squabbling never hurt nobody. Yeah. Now, you know, some people say, you know, there's no place for it in the game and all this. Yeah, there is.
Starting point is 00:08:02 I can't think of a better place for it. Exactly. And you know what? Honestly, can I tell you something? It makes the rivalry that much more exciting and intense. And you want to look forward to it the following year. Just a little bit. Ain't nobody getting hurt.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Just a little bit. Ain't nobody getting hurt. Just a little squabbling. Ain't never hurt nobody. That's it. Just a little bit. I just want y'all to know I'm trying to be as disrespectful as I possibly can you know if they had a bus about it because i want you i want you to know i want you to feel this i want you to hate me i want you to despise my team i want you to despise me
Starting point is 00:08:39 because i see that i rue the day that you came into existence. Yes, I dislike you just that much. So it ain't no secret here. Yes, don't let me win. After you've been running your mouth the whole year. All year, yeah. Okay, now we got 60 minutes to settle this. We get four quarters to settle it.
Starting point is 00:08:59 Right. I win what you, look, I'm gonna let you know this. I'm a sore loser. Loser, yeah. But I'm a worse winner. I just want y'all to know this. What did I do, Ocho? If you think I'm a bad loser, don't let me win.
Starting point is 00:09:13 Right. Then you better not let me win in your house. Yeah. That make it even worse. I'm leaving muddy work boots. Man, who's shoes are these? Yeah, they're mine. Yeah, I'm leaving my muddy work boots.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Yes, absolutely, Ocho. I'm going to be as disrespectful as blatantly, as blatantly disrespectful as I possibly can because you've been running your mouth the whole year. You've been talking the whole game. And now look at you. Now you want to fight. You showed more hostility
Starting point is 00:09:49 after the game than you did during the game. Yeah. So what was this? Where was all the muscles? Where was all that venom that you got right now? Get off the field. And listen, coaches will never be able to say this. Coaches will never be able to say how they really truly feel about small,
Starting point is 00:10:12 small skirmishes like this. You know, it's good for the game in a sense and the rivalry itself. No matter what these pundits and these analysts may say, good for the game of football it just is i don't know how to explain it i can't put it into words but i'm giving you as enough context as i can as a fan of college football as a fan of sports in general it makes it that's more that much more exciting especially coming up next. When you look at the calendar and the schedule come out, Michigan and Ohio State, they're going to circle that game.
Starting point is 00:10:50 When it's up to UNC and North Carolina State to play again, they're going to circle that game. As one, you got to watch this. We circling, too. We're going to put foots in you again. On this day, a year later, foots in you again. On this day a year later, puts in you again. Georgia needed eight overtimes, Ocho, to get the 44-42
Starting point is 00:11:09 home win over Georgia Tech. In a game that they were favored to win by three touchdowns, it's the first time the Bulldogs have overcome a 17-point or more deficit since 2006. It's only the second time in the past 20 seasons in which they've rallied for a 14-point deficit in the fourth quarter.
Starting point is 00:11:27 Georgia Tech had the game won. The quarterback got a first down. He got hit. He fumbled the ball. They got a seven-point lead, Ojo. They got the game won. The game is won. All they got to do is hold on to the ball.
Starting point is 00:11:39 That's it. They didn't. Georgia Tech was down in their score. And eight overtimes later later it's 44-42 you see you think about the record right you see where Georgia Tech is ranked
Starting point is 00:11:50 yes you see where Georgia Tech's record is for some for some reason it's like in the NFL when it comes to playing a divisional opponent
Starting point is 00:11:57 no matter how bad your season is going for some reason they gonna give you a game yeah they gonna give you a game I'm not sure Texas when Texas does watch this film on what Georgia Tech was able to do,
Starting point is 00:12:10 you're not going to sit here and tell me that Georgia Tech players up front in that skill position is that much better than those at Texas. No, they're not. I'm not buying that. And I'm not buying that, and I'm not believing it. But if they can do what they did to Georgia in making it a game to where you had to go to eight overtimes, ain't no way y'all can allow a 30-15 shellacking like y'all took early in the season happen a second time. Not in a championship game.
Starting point is 00:12:38 I know better than that. That's going to be a tough game because, you know, Georgia basically at home. They're playing the Mercedes-Benz. That's an hour away, Ocho. Do you know how much black and red is going to be a tough game because, you know, Georgia basically at home. They're playing the Mercedes-Benz. That's an hour away, Ocho. Do you know how much black and red is going to be in that building? Now, I know Texas travel. Oh, they travel well. They travel well.
Starting point is 00:12:54 Them Georgia dogs. It's different. Man, they're home. That's an hour from Athens. Yeah, but you got to think now. We're talking about Texas. They travel well. It's like the Eagles or the Steelers having to play somewhere else in somebody else's stadium.
Starting point is 00:13:07 They travel well. And Georgia, the Georgia Bulldogs or the Cowboys. Yeah. Okay, I know you're right about that. You're right about that. Remember we were having that discussion and we talked about, well, who's the most popular team in the state? What did everybody say? Bulldogs.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Yeah, most definitely. Bulldogs. Yeah. Yeah, most definitely. Bulldogs. Most definitely. Bulldogs and then the Braves. And then you pick whoever you want. You want the Falcons. You want the Hawks.
Starting point is 00:13:35 Right. The MLF team. The Bulldogs and the Falcons. Number one. Bulldogs by a long stretch. Mm-hmm. Because the Braves used to be terrible. The Braves were awful.
Starting point is 00:13:51 The Falcons were terrible. Well, we know the Falcons. Yeah. But they got time. Even when they were bad, it didn't matter. It was a party. And they kept that going. Because now it's a party. You go to the Georgia Dome.
Starting point is 00:14:05 Well, it's not Georgia Dome, excuse me. Mercedes-Benz Dome now. It's a party. And then when they got Vic. Oh, man, listen. Listen, the Michael Vic era was an experience, Uncle. That's what they called it, the Michael Vic experience. Listen, it was an experience, and you had to be there to understand.
Starting point is 00:14:25 You had to. Someone that didn't even play in Atlanta. I was in Cincinnati. But his time and his era was an experience, one that can't be explained. Yep. Watching what he did in the past, it don't do you no justice. No. I was in the city.
Starting point is 00:14:41 I lived there. You had to be there, man. You had to be there, man. You had to be. I don't think people understand how great Michael Vick was during that time. No, especially in Atlanta. Oh, my God. It was. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:14:54 I mean, he was he was he was Lamar Jackson on steroids. Yeah, he was Jackson on steroids. And we know how good L. Jack is a two time MVP. He's a two-time MVP. He's one of the top two quarterbacks in football. He's one of the three or four best players in all of football. And I'm not saying he's two or three.
Starting point is 00:15:13 But, boy, hey, Michael Vick was... It's different. It's different. And a lot of people won't understand it because the first thing they'll go to is they'll go to numbers and they'll dissect. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Listen, we're not dissect yeah yeah yeah listen we're not debating that yeah we're not but they're debating that but when michael vick was playing when michael had the when he had the ball in his hands you had to be there the kind of player you know you just hold your breath when reggie bush
Starting point is 00:15:40 was at usc he's the kind of player when the ball in his hands you hold your breath because you don't know what the f going to happen when peter warf was at flor, he's the kind of player when the ball is in his hands, you hold your breath because you don't know what the F is going to happen. When Peter Ward was at Florida State and the ball was coming his way or they punt return or they threw him a hitch or something, you hold your breath. You don't know what the hell is going to happen. He was something special, man. Stanford is bringing back one of its school's legend, Andrew Luck, to work as a general manager of the football program for espn pete famo uh luck accepted a position that will put him in charge of the entire program and is considered uh a distinct evolution from one of the traditional roles of
Starting point is 00:16:17 a college general manager and a phone interview with family luck confirmed his new job and the role involves everything stanford football touches football-wise and business-wise. He will also help with fundraising, securing sponsorships, increasing attendance, and alumni relationships. Do you like that, Ocho? Hey, I love the move. I love the move, especially putting someone like Andrew Luck in that position, someone who's had success at the NFL level, short tenure, obviously due to the injuries, but he's the perfect candidate for this. He's a perfect person. He's a great, I hate using the word mascot, representative for Stanford, what he was able to do and accomplish during his time there. Now with this idea, now, you know how I am. I'm all about business. I'm all about branding. I'm all about marketing. Now I'm thinking in turn for myself and being able to add another job and diversify my portfolio. where I can also help in the same areas that Andrew Luck is going to help at Stanford.
Starting point is 00:17:32 Either me getting a GM role at Oregon State, you know, where I can do the same things and offer the same responsibility and be offered the same responsibilities that Andrew Luck is, or general manager at FAMU. It's a full-time job. You're not going to give up your other job. That's a full-time job. And you're not going to give up your other job that's a full-time job.

Muhammad Ali was never afraid to express himself loudly and boldly and stays true to form in Ali and Me, an eight-part Audible original.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Guided by his own words, this series explores Ali's life and legacy through never-before-heard audio recordings and discussions with those who knew him best. Muhammad had this real sense of his own personal values and principles, things he believed in, his own sense of conviction. Those convictions never wavered. Hosted by Muhammad's wife, Lani Ali, and his close friend, award-winning broadcaster, John Ramsey,
Starting point is 00:20:42 Ali and Me goes beyond the boxing ring to delve deeply into Ali's extraordinary life through conversations with Billy Crystal, Mike Tyson, Rosie Perez, Common, Will Smith, and Bob Costas. It created a North Star for me of how I want to
Starting point is 00:20:58 be in the world, you know. As a child, as a young person, he gave credence to my audacity. There's no debate that this is the greatest global sports figure of our lifetime. Listen to Ali and Me, now on Audible. In the fall of 1986, Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal that looked like it might bring down his presidency.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Did you make a mistake in sending arms to Tehran, sir? No. It became known as the Iran-Contra affair. And I'm not taking any more questions in just a second. I'm going to ask Attorney General... I'm Leon Nafok, co-creator of Slow Burn. In my podcast, Fiasco, Iran-Contra, you'll hear all the unbelievable details of a scandal that captivated the nation nearly 40 years ago, but which few of us still remember today. The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you.
Starting point is 00:22:00 Please do. To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Here's responsibility. Fundraising, securing sponsorships, increasing attendance, and and alumni relationship that's an everyday job i can do all i'm not saying that you can't but i'm saying you can't do those other things that's what i'm saying yeah i know you can do it you're charismatic you relatable you can get out there in front of the people yes absolutely you know how to smooth yes yeah but you can't do those other things. That's the problem.
Starting point is 00:22:47 Damn. Okay, well, that's off the table. That's off the table. But I mean, that's off the table. But kudos to Andrew Luck. I think this is going to be good for Stanford. I'm not sure if he can change the landscape of that team as far as the visibility is there. Everyone knows who you are.
Starting point is 00:23:04 But in order to bring those students in that you need, you already know what they're waiting on. Oh, Joe, you got to understand. A lot of those guys that go to Stanford, they're trying to be doctors. They're trying to be lawyers. They're trying to be businessmen. If I happen to go to the NFL, that's fine and good too.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Fine with me, right. But I'm trying to be a finance major, an econ, I'm trying to be an econ. Bro, I mean, come on, bro. Do you understand? Look, you go to Stanford, you go to school like the bro. Georgia Tech. Yeah. Do you know what
Starting point is 00:23:38 the admissions are to get into a place like that? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Most definitely. Most definitely. Listen, I... Every once in a while, you'll get a John Elway. Every once in a while, you'll get a Christian McCaffrey or you'll get a I think John Lynch went to Stanford. Yeah. You get Andrew Luck. Andrew Luck. Right. But you're talking about 50 years and I named four players. Yeah, you're right. So you you everyone think about it. Think about John graduating 83. Think about before you got another Andrew Luck. How long was that?
Starting point is 00:24:10 Long time. And then you got a Christian McCaffrey. Bro. Yeah. And you, hey, them guys ain't get no general, no general, general studies degree. John was a finance major. He was the finance or econ, economics. Look at those degrees that they get, don't you?
Starting point is 00:24:32 I got me a degree in eligibility. I'm trying to stay eligible. I'm trying to stay in place. Hey, it's hard to go to school with the academia like that. Yeah, yeah. That's a bro, you're going to know the name, Mocho. The standard is different. The standard is different. It's almost
Starting point is 00:24:56 as if academics come first. It does. Like Stanford. Yes. Amongst others. It's understandable. Because their biggest alums are not athletes. Nah. They're your Larry Ellisons.
Starting point is 00:25:13 They're your, what's the guy? Your Zuckerbergs. I'm not saying they went there, but I'm saying they're guys like that. Their famous alums, they win Pulitzer Prizes. They win Nobel Peace Prizes in econ and mathematics. Right, right, right. So they're big. They're biggest alumni, like a lot of other schools. Maybe their biggest alumni are athletes. And there's nothing wrong with that. Right.
Starting point is 00:25:36 But I'm saying when you go to places like Georgia Tech and you go to a place like Stanford, you go to Cal Berkeley. You do realize why you're here, right? Yeah. Let's not lose sight of it. What do they always say, Ocho? You hear a lot of athletes say, just keep the main thing, the main thing. When you go to a school like that, the main thing is the main thing. The main thing, yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:58 Most definitely. It's not a stepping stone to the NFL. Now, if I happen to make it based on the work that I put in here, and I'm able to fall back on that and still have my plan A, which is my academics and whatever my major may be, whether it be econ, whether it be finance, so be it.
Starting point is 00:26:16 Yes. So be it. In the last home game at Folsom Field in front of the home crowd, Travis Hunter and Shador Sanders put on a show. Colorado demolished Oklahoma State 52 to nothing
Starting point is 00:26:32 to keep their slim playoff hopes alive. Prime told Colorado Gordon to respond after the 37-21 loss. The Buffaloes didn't just respond, they obliterated the opposition. It was Colorado's largest margin of victory since beating the Gophers, the Minnesota Gophers,
Starting point is 00:26:51 58 to nothing in 1991. Shador Sanders was 34 of 41, 438, five touchdowns and an interception. Shador, excuse me, Travis Hunter, 10 catches, a buck 16, three touchdowns and an interception. Shador, excuse me, Travis Hunter, 10 catches, a buck 16, three touchdowns, a pick, two pass breakups. They had,
Starting point is 00:27:14 yeah, Travis was, no, Shador was 31 of 41, 438, five touchdowns, one interception. Webster, had 11 catches, a buck 75, two touchdowns, one interception. Webster, excuse me, had 11 catches, a buck 75, two touchdowns. Travis Hunter, 10 catches, 116, three touchdowns.
Starting point is 00:27:32 I think his name is Will Shepard. Had six catches for 67 yards. I like this because this is what Prime knew. Prime knew that the boys at State were going to try to give JT as many carries as he could handle and let him try to get as many yards as he could. And he says, I'm not going to let y'all, I'm not going to just get up and take my dogs, call my dogs off.
Starting point is 00:27:57 Trav, stay out there, because I want them to let them know just how great you are. Can I interest you in 10, 4 bucks, 16, and 3 touchdowns? Can I interest you in a pick? Can I interest you in two pass breakups? Can I interest y'all in that? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:13 He left no doubt. At all. No doubt that he's going to win the Heisman Trophy in December. What is that, the first week of December? So that's next Saturday, isn't it? It's normally the first Saturday in December. What is that? The first week of December? So that's next Saturday, isn't it? It's normally the first Saturday in December.
Starting point is 00:28:35 December 14th, they backed it up. Okay. Oh, yeah, because they got conference play now. Right. Yeah, so conference play would be next weekend. Yeah, there conference play would be next weekend. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:46 There's no question in my mind. He's the best college player. Look, and there's nothing low. Ashton Gentry has
Starting point is 00:28:51 had an unbelievable season. Crazy. Uh, 2000. What is he at? 2000. And is he at
Starting point is 00:28:56 2020? Was it 2086 well we know barry barry barry rushed for 26 25 and games. And he had another 225 yards and five touchdowns in the Holiday Bowl. They didn't count that. So he would have been over 2,800 yards and over 40 touchdowns in 12 games. Which, I mean, think about how many yards you would literally have to rush like 250 yards a game, Ojo, to beat that. 2288. So he has 2,288 yards. And he hascho, to beat that. 2288.
Starting point is 00:29:45 So he has 2288 yards. And he has the conference championship next week, right? Okay. So Barry's 2625. 2628. So he's about, what, 350, 340
Starting point is 00:30:04 something yards. 334. 340 but I love what I saw from Colorado 340 man Ocho if they could have just got Kansas now they're going to the Big 12 championship game with a chance to get no
Starting point is 00:30:42 question they're going to the what you call they'll be going to the college football playoff. So now they have to rely on two or three teams to lose. Iowa, if I'm not mistaken. Is it Iowa or Iowa State? I think it's Iowa State. Yeah, so
Starting point is 00:30:58 hopefully everything goes in their favor and they make it to the playoffs. I think they can call some hell now. They can call some hell and cause some havoc, depending on who they messed up with. So here's the hope, and they do make it. Yeah, he could easily. But how many games have he played, 12, 13?
Starting point is 00:31:17 He's played 12 games. He's played 12 games. So he's already played one more game. I don't think he's getting 340. Who did they play? Who did they play? Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:41 And they're going to play a game in the college football playoff. And they're going to give him as many carries as he needs. I can see that. I can see that. So he needs 100. Because what if they lose this game? Do you think they'll make the college football playoff? We don't know if they're going to play.
Starting point is 00:32:00 But who could it possibly be? Man, how did Colorado State, what you call them, beat the brakes off them? Yeah. Yeah. So they're guaranteed at least two more games on choke and so he's probably going to need he's going to need 340 yards in two games and there haven't been very many games this year that he's gotten held under 170 yards and i think this is why uh i think this is why uh prime left left his guys. He's like, look, no, no, no, no, no. I know it's 35-0, so we're going to finish this
Starting point is 00:32:51 thing. Travis, his last game at Folsom Field, nobody in Colorado is going to not remember him. They're going to remember him forever. You can make the case.
Starting point is 00:33:08 He's the greatest Colorado player ever. I mean, Cordell, Rashawn Salam, Byron Rizzo White, he was a Supreme Court justice. He went there, but it's hard. They had Westbrook. They've had some great defenders. They had Alfred Williams, and they had Hudson, and they had a lot of different guys.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Eric B. Ennemy, J.J. Flanagan. They've had some guys. But it's going to be hard to say that they've been a better player than Travis Hunter. No. Hey, yo. Wow. Georgia's losing.
Starting point is 00:33:42 What? 17-0 Georgia Tech where's my remote at no because if I turn that on I'm going to be looking to my left don't worry about it but you're doing through the ball exceptionally well today 34-41 438 he broke his
Starting point is 00:34:04 own record he had the most touchdown passes in a single season. He upped that. Now, what's he at now? Like 34? Most passing yards in a single season. I think he broke Coy Detmer's record back in the mid-90s when he was playing for Rick Neuheisel.
Starting point is 00:34:20 Yeah. He set an all-time single season passing record. The previous record was 3,527 yards set by Coy Detmer with another game to play, so he has an opportunity to move that even further. Ocho, Travis Hunter, he was the Heisman frontrunner, and today was his most impressive game of his career. A three-touchdown performance, a one-interception,
Starting point is 00:34:43 a couple of pass breakups. Hunter had 10 catches for 116 yards, three touchdowns, his fourth interception on the Caesar with a regular season in stat book. Offensively, he had 92 receptions, 1,152 yards, 14 receiving touchdowns, one rushing touchdown.
Starting point is 00:35:00 On defense, he had four interceptions with a lot of quarterbacks not even throwing in his direction. He is the best collegiate player in football. We've never seen a guy that could do what he did on both sides of the ball. I'm Michael Kassin, founder and CEO of 3C Ventures and your guide on good company.
