Not waking up kind of like Georgia. Are we, are we recording? I think we're recording.
00:01:05
Speaker
ah Hey, we finally get to say it this season, just as we predicted. Yeah, exactly. I don't know that we could have drawn an opening closer. Yeah, I, I basically, I had, that was a text conversation I had with my sister. Uh, I can't remember at what point, but she was like, you guys kept getting it right. You didn't get it right this week. Cause it was bound to happen eventually. Yeah. and We can't, we can't always roll up. We can't always roll up against, uh, against Kentucky and and throw up a 51 to 13 score like we did last year.
00:01:41
Speaker
Yeah,
Weekend Activities: Baseball and Adventures
00:01:42
Speaker
yeah. oh You know, I was having a great day um leading up on Saturday until the stressful, but stressful evening. um I will say though Kim as she has vetoed us ever doing what we did throughout the day. Again, she was like, Yeah, we can't do that again. So but i like What did you guys? Oh, you went to the the baseball game. we went Yeah, we we did. We ended up going to the Charlotte Knights game. ah So we basically said, what did we say? we We declared that we were doing a triathlon. We went we went for a we went for a run in the morning. Hey, like together, a couple's run outside, which we don't usually do. It was nice. And then i blame you, Jim.
00:02:26
Speaker
I know. See, that's what others I've got more I did to other bad things. but So there was that. um Yeah, then we went to baseball game and then we came. So we were saying it was like our triathlon between the run, the Charlotte Knights baseball game, um and then the Geordie game. So yeah, so Kim said we can't do that again. But it was fun. It was fun up until the I think it's the game, whatever, it's fun. But it's this stressful night oh watching that. So yeah, she's banned that going forward. But like I was texting you, the the game was baseball game was crazy. Who knew that Tukey Toussaint and Mike Soroka were on the Charlotte Knights, not me. So anyway.
TikTok Pancake Recipe Discussion
00:03:03
Speaker
Yeah. Are they like a good team, I guess? I mean,
00:03:07
Speaker
I mean, they were on, they, they wouldn't tend to nothing over the, uh, the jumbo shrimp. So, yeah, it's, it's, I feel like that if you have those, those guys on your team, they must be pretty good. Yeah. they were Are they a triple A or are they a double A? Like what I don't remember. Yeah. The other the white socks, triple A.
00:03:23
Speaker
Okay. Okay. So this, so this is basically like, you know, the guys that they could call upon her kind of stuff. Yep. Yeah. They had some like designated for assignment guys. flying in Yeah. So at any rate, and um, but yeah, but then, yeah, then we got home and.
00:03:41
Speaker
Uh, we did, we did do the porch. So we did the outdoor viewing on the porch. Uh, Kim and I and Lily set out there for the whole game. Uh, let the fire at halftime, which who knows maybe that lit the fire under the team. I don't know. Uh, we did some s'mores. Um, and, uh, I had a ah nightcap, uh, bourbon, uh, when the game was over. So.
00:04:10
Speaker
Speaking of smarts, um how do you guys do smarts? How does the wood client, does the wood c client have a ah specific repertoire for smarting? We're basic. ah So just the gram, although we got some gluten-free grams for Kim, she did not like them. So we need, if anyone has gluten-free graham cracker recommendations, let me know. Lily and I. Yeah, Kim has gluten-free. Yeah. Okay. um Lily and I are not. So we had the standard.
00:04:39
Speaker
Yeah, so we just did that Hershey, plain old Hershey, chocolate, and marshmallow. Now, I've seen all kinds of like, TikToks and stuff lately. And I actually mentioned to Kim, like, what if we try one of those? I saw one that it was like, it was like, take a Reese's peanut butter cup and like dip it. That's exactly what I was just about to ask. Okay, and then you dip it in peanut butter fluff.
00:05:00
Speaker
and then Oh no, I don't know about that. That's what I saw. I saw that on somewhere, which seemed like kind of outrageous. so That is outrageous. yeah I was just thinking like replace the peanut butter cup with the yeah you have the chocolate bar. That's as exciting and exotic ah as I've gotten. I'm sure that you can get even more exotic.
00:05:22
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Okay. All right. Well, I know you guys had a great weekend in the pallet household. Yeah. Yeah. We, yeah wife was out of town. So, um yeah, we were, we were just hanging out Saturday. What did we do Saturday?
00:05:40
Speaker
Oh, my daughter had a, my daughter had a football game that she was cheering at. So we had to go and do that. Carter's flag football game got preemptively canceled, which I was glad about. But like, the end of the day, like, we didn't, it didn't really rain. Like, the weather wasn't nearly as a factor as I thought it was going to be this weekend.
00:06:01
Speaker
Cause like it was constantly raining, but it was like that annoying, like spitting rain. It wasn't like it never like downpoured, which I was kind of frustrated with cause I feel like the grass really needs it. Um, you know, like one of those like super dad, super dad.
00:06:16
Speaker
Uh, really need this rain. yeah really need this Yeah. Mostly because I don't want to pay the water, the lawn. Um, but, uh, but yes, so Saturday we we did that. We got up, made pancakes. I actually, speaking of Tik TOK recipes, we, we did a Tik TOK recipe for pancakes. Uh, normally we do the, uh, the Daniel Smith, one third of the Smith bros. Um,
00:06:44
Speaker
he He has a great recipe for buttermilk pancakes. Normally, I roll with that as the as the go-to. However, the simplicity of the TikTok pancakes, ice cream pancakes, is is pretty amazing. Have you ever seen this or or heard about this? No. I mean, I saw the pictures of your pancakes that you sent or posted at both and they looked amazing. They're really good.
00:07:06
Speaker
um I really wanted to get it go exotic, but we went super basic on this one for the first time around. I think next time I'm going to do some a little bit different. I had bought ice cream a few days prior, but like somebody in the household ate most of the ice cream, so I didn't have nearly as much ice cream, so it was a little bit doctored. okay But the idea is is that you take melted ice cream, and you mix it with self-rising flour,
00:07:35
Speaker
And you have a two ingredient pancake pancake mix. Got it. Interesting. Yeah. Uh, it is interesting, especially as someone that that makes like fairly involved pancakes. Um, it is definitely foreign to just do two things. Right. Right. But as the, as the, as the ah father of the seven year old that really likes to, really likes to cook and bake and stuff, having a two ingredient, uh, project was was super great. Yeah. Yeah. Nice. Nice. I mean, they look fantastic. So.
00:08:10
Speaker
Yeah, it turned out really cool. Definitely. ah Definitely didn't use as much ice cream. I could have used more ice cream, but it worked out fine. Okay. um But yeah, then I did I did. ah So normally I do my run in the morning. But since we had to get up and get pancakes and have the cheer cheering that we had to go to which took us to the other side of town. I did not do the run this morning.
00:08:40
Speaker
Um, or that morning. Yeah. But then, so you and I messaged each other at one point. You're like, ah, this game is like so late and it definitely felt like it. You're like, okay. All right. I'm ready. I'm ready to go. like Let's, let's, let's get this party started. Oh crap. We have another three hours.
00:08:59
Speaker
Yeah. I mean, you know, I'm like, again, like with with our day, like we went for a run, we went to an entire baseball game. We got home and it was like, I still have to wait like three hours. Like what is going on? Yeah. In that context, in that context, it was a little crazy that you saw a whole baseball game. Yeah. Like we were, I was like exhausted. I mean, I laid down, took a nap ah because the other thing I, you know, I, I turned on the the Florida, um, Texas A&M game and I was like,
00:09:26
Speaker
when i saw the weather delay i was like well our game is not gonna start on time um so i knew that was gonna happen so yeah i took a nap and then i was i think i think i woke up from that and then is when i texted you like god like is this game we were gonna kick off like what is going on uh so yeah yeah and shout out to uh british bulldog yeah in our in our whatsapp chat he was like he was like yeah this this is not not ideal yeah
00:09:54
Speaker
Oh man. all All you Euro dogs are true our true Georgia fans. I have them to stay up until three or four in the morning yeah watching in the Bulldogs play.
00:10:05
Speaker
Yeah, for sure.
Georgia's Defensive Performance Highlights
00:10:06
Speaker
Um, especially when you're watching what you watched, although I will say, um, as maybe as we transitioned into the game, I guess, um, the defense was lights out. Um, the defense, uh, maybe lights out is too strong, but the defense had a good game. This, I do feel like this is an elite defense. Um, so I'm gonna still have not given up a touchdown on the season. So, yeah I mean, they, they won that game.
00:10:34
Speaker
Yeah, defense did more than enough to get the job done. I mean, anytime you give up 12 points on an SEC opponent, but's a that's a good day at the office. and If I had told you before the game, hey, hey Jim, we're we're only going to give up 12 points. How would you think that the game would go? Right. I would have thought it was going to go the way I thought it was going to go. Right. Yeah, know like yeah we we gave up 12 points and and and zero touchdowns.
00:11:02
Speaker
Yeah. I mean, pretty good. Pretty good. Yeah. You'd say that that probably would have been a similar scoreline to last year. Yeah. I mean, I feel like 51 to 13. Yeah. Yeah, seriously. I mean, and you know, what we we had as like in the thirties, you know, a lot to a little that would, you know, I would have thought it would have been something like that. um I would have thought we would have been not far from that. So yeah. But Jim, I think I messaged you about this, but like,
00:11:30
Speaker
Now, Kentucky is like the the new the new South Carolina, because we used to play South Carolina super close. um and And it felt like going on the road to South Carolina was always a tough game. um Since they are not on the schedule, I guess the Kentucky is the new South Carolina because I don't know, man, we should have looked we should have looked at the exact ah results from all of our trips in the recent and the recent time period of what it's like going to Lexington. And that probably should have been a better clue as to what we were walking into.
00:12:06
Speaker
Yeah. And I feel like there were like clues and things that we even said in the preview, but didn't like sway us for being like 30 to six or whatever. It was like, um, I mean, you know, I, I said something along the lines of it, there's a world where this is one of those games where Kirby smarts just trying to get out of, get out of Lexington, you know, shut it down. But I thought that was going to be like, not, I didn't think that there were, I didn't think that was going to be a come from behind win.
00:12:35
Speaker
Like that. Um, I didn't, I didn't see that in the cards, but I guess the other thing is too. And I know I texted you this, like there were also some things that I noticed like while we were talking when I was looking at all the stats and everything. And I was like, wait a minute, like this can't be right. And so I just kind of like dismissed it and let it go. Um, so I need to be better about that. But.
00:12:53
Speaker
I think we were kind of in line with most people thought it was going to be you know the way we thought it was going to be. um I mean i mean like we didn't um don't even know really what to say. like We weren't ready to go from the beginning maybe or something like um ah offensively. like We eventually eventually woke up to some extent.
00:13:15
Speaker
But um everything just looked off like that looked off. ah Again, like give their defense credit. I mean, I think that is a good I think their defense is good. um The other thing too, like we were, you know, ah I think basing a lot off of it off of their last game against South Carolina.
00:13:35
Speaker
I mean, their, you know, their offense did give up a touchdown to South Carolina, too. Like one of those touchdowns that South Carolina scored against Kentucky was a pick six. um So I don't know. I think the defense was pretty good. Dean Walker is really good on the defensive line. And we we knew that, but they were very disruptive through our offensive line and made Beck uncomfortable all night. Yeah. Stacy and I are are not on and not on speaking terms right now.
00:14:06
Speaker
yeah he's He's not returning my phone calls and I'm not taking his excuses. um Yeah, offensive line, I feel like um didn't do us any favors. the The wide receiver core, I mean, you and I were talking about this. ah I didn't even realize that Humphries was out there.
00:14:29
Speaker
a yeah And we were like, where what happened to Lawson Lucky who seemed to really like get going during Clemson? What happened to all of these guys that seems like that they were poised for having breakout seasons and stuff? yeah um What happened
In-depth Analysis: Offensive and Defensive
00:14:49
Speaker
to the highly touted tight end from Stanford um who frankly didn't play all that great?
00:14:58
Speaker
Yeah, you I didn't see him after the first quarter because he he's he missed it. He struggled with his blocking and I didn't see him go back in after that. I could have missed it, but I didn't see it.
00:15:08
Speaker
Yeah. I mean, you said it that, uh, that's what you were telling me. It was like everybody that everybody that is doing bad um blocking wise gets, is getting yanked. yeah it Yes. Yeah. I mean, and like saw Nate Frazier, even Nate Frazier, you know, you he had been Mr. Mr. Reliable thus far the season. Um, even he was messing up.
00:15:32
Speaker
I felt like that ETN at times was good, but when you kind of walked back, I guess I thought that in my head ETN did much better than when I kind of rewatched everything and rewatched some of the key key moments and stuff like that. like There were times when he was choosing the wrong direction on plays.
00:15:54
Speaker
yeah it just It seemed like that the coaches put the players in positions to succeed, and they still didn't. um It was just a really ah really frustrating it was a frustrating evening.
00:16:09
Speaker
um but And I think that the return of the Kirby rage stroke was also kind of telling as well. And I think that wasn't there some wouldn't there some clues of his pre-game speech?
00:16:22
Speaker
um Oh, were there like, kind of like the South Carolina when he was like, would i write a play not read it Yeah, exactly. We need after the game, after the after the game, he was like, you know, I don't think that our I don't think the kids heard our message. I didn't hear him say that. Yeah, that that kind of, you know, that that tracks basically, right? Like,
00:16:44
Speaker
maybe they thought that they were going to walk all over these guys and they were looking past them trying to get to the bye week. By and large, it was probably the worst thing that could possibly have happened. I guess, I guess it's not entirely because I do feel like that you and I talked about the manufactured adversity, right? The whole the whole concept of manufactured adversity. Yeah. Like,
00:17:09
Speaker
I felt like that we weren't really trying as hard as we possibly could have to win that game as bigger as we did. I hesitate to say that Kirby wanted it to be that way, but You didn't see like, I don't know how to describe it, man, like there's just there wasn't there wasn't a whole lot of like exotic, there weren't a whole lot of exotic play calls, I feel like that we were doing there wasn't a whole lot of scheme idea that you hear the phrase like scheming men open scheming guys open like you didn't see a whole lot of that.
00:17:48
Speaker
So I feel like the, to a certain extent, they, we just kind of had a game plan and we were going to be like, listen, this is what we're going to do. This is what we should be able to do. And we're going to do it. Even if it doesn't work, because you guys should be good enough to do this, this game plan. Yeah. And we just never deviated. You use the word, uh, Bobo just saw something on tape and just never deviated from it. Yeah. Right.
00:18:13
Speaker
Yeah, and yeah, welcome to my game day my game day text message thoughts that I said.
Challenges of Winning at Lexington
00:18:21
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, um, no, yeah. Yeah. But then but you go back and you look like this is, this is what we've grown to experience when we go to Lexington. I mean, like we yeah i've I've alluded to it a couple of times, but you know, last several trips to Lexington have been very close games. Um, previous trip in November of 2022, which was the all world team. Yeah.
00:18:51
Speaker
head headed by Munkin. Bobo wasn't the offensive coordinator then. It was a 16-6 victory against Kentucky in Lexington, an undefeated Georgia team, the best one of the best teams in college football history. Still only won 16-6 against Kentucky. um Go back to 2020. Again, 14-3. That team was pretty good too. Yeah.
00:19:17
Speaker
um 2018 in Lexington was the only game in recent memory that was it was it was a blowout, it was 34-17. Then you go back to 2016, Kirby's first year, we won 27-24.
00:19:32
Speaker
Yeah, so I, I agree. um I will say to an extent. So one thing I would definitely a shout out to coach Hayes, go check out his, his film breakdowns of the game. So the only thing I hesitate is like, there were definitely plays where the guys were open, so you could say they were schemed open or they got open or whatever. and either There was hesitation. There was hesitation, so either Beck didn't throw it to the open guy or like by a decision or he missed them, or also though there was pressure like someone was up in his face because someone got through the line. like yeah there were There were times where Kentucky's in a three-man rush and we couldn't hold it.
00:20:14
Speaker
Um, you've got some, a defender right in Beck's face. So that, that kind of stuff can happen. So to that extent, like, I feel like we had open receivers downfield and we, you know, we connected on some big pass plays and made Beck made that one like ridiculous throw to Dylan Bell over the middle. Like when he was, then there was another one. There's a couple of downfield shots that he did take like ah over the middle of field that were fantastic throws. Um, and there were other plays where that was there, but it didn't happen. Um, so I don't know. The one, the one where he had Dylan Bell wide open.
00:20:44
Speaker
ah Yeah. I don't remember what down it was, but I remember the the announcers were talking about like, he's got to hit this play. like you you've got He normally hits this play. You do it a hundred times, he probably completes it 90% of the time.
00:21:01
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. So that was, that was, that was frustrating. Um, and I agree on, on ETN. The other thing I'll say on ETN, I think he ran the ball. Well, um, I'd like to see him, um, I mean, he had a couple of drops, so I'll just say that, um,
00:21:18
Speaker
One of them you know was a low ball again because there's a rusher right in Beck's face. But the one the one that that sticks out in my mind was I believe it was a third down like inside the red zone and we ended up having to kick a field goal. He dropped it.
00:21:34
Speaker
Maybe he doesn't get the first down if he catches it, but I don't know, maybe we're, it would have been fourth and short. Maybe we go for it. You know, who knows? Um, so that one, that one was tough. Um, but also your questions though, I will say on like, where is this guy? Like Kobe young, we had a great, you know, pitching catch to him back shoulder fade for a first down in the game. Like, where is that? You know, like we didn't see that either. So ah definitely like ah ah agreeing with you as well there.
00:21:59
Speaker
Yeah, there's definitely question marks on why we didn't see certain players. I continue to ask the question about um you know Anthony Evans. right um The Anthony Evans situation is probably the most puzzling, especially when things clearly aren't clicking. like Throw something out there, like give him give him a shot. like you know i mean like I think he said that he was out there. and I haven't looked at haven't looked at the participation numbers or anything like that. but trying to forget this game. um You know, survive in advance right kind of kind of situation. Let's move on. I feel like that this is going to be something to watch moving forward. But um again, I know that the manufactured adversity is a is kind of a joke that we we made up. But um
00:22:50
Speaker
I don't know, man. It's kind of like kind of like a lot of a lot of conspiracy theories out there. like There's a lot of smoke out there, because none of it makes any sense. None of it makes any dang sense. um But what I will say is that, OK, so we had our game plan. We rolled out there. You can even look at the predicted win probability numbers.
00:23:12
Speaker
you know, zero to three in the first quarter, it's three to three, um three to three in the second quarter. So we're we're at six, three at halftime, right? Well, we still had a pretty big percentage probability of winning um even at halftime, losing like three points.
00:23:29
Speaker
yeah um What I'll say about that is that as that time gets shorter and shorter and shorter, um I feel like that Beck, I don't know, it maybe it's overthinking, but I feel like that when he realizes that the game is getting smaller and smaller and smaller, his ability to make things happen becomes smaller and smaller and smaller because in his head, he has been drilled to not turn the ball over.
00:23:58
Speaker
And so he's less willing to take those risks and to put the ball into potentially harm's way. Whereas someone like Stetson, who is quite known for putting the ball into tight spots, into risky situations. Yes, in harm's way.
00:24:16
Speaker
It turned out to be, you know, successful, right? Like, it you and I've joked, like, someone that does that, like, and turns out to be a gunslinger or whatever, or he's got a lot of moxie. very Well, the opposite end of that spectrum and Kirby smarts world is not so great. So anyway,
00:24:37
Speaker
ah and and those tight games, I feel like that in this tight game, i felt I felt like that the window of you know the window of opportunity was a lot smaller for him just because he knew how big the moment was. And I don't i don't i don't want to say that this is was his a mentality, but it certainly feels that way based on watching him hesitate and hesitate and hesitate and then take a check down.
00:25:02
Speaker
I will say though, at the end of the game, when it came down with, you know, where you've got to get for, we're we're trying to keep from giving them the ball back, which they eventually did get it back with what, nine seconds. But on that last drive, I was actually pretty surprised how much we threw on that drive.
00:25:18
Speaker
Um, especially the big pass play to love it and that was a strike and that was a huge play. Um, stay in bounds. I think we, I, we definitely need to dissect the clock rules more. Cause I think remember we were texting about that. Like he went out of bounds. It was before two minutes. So I think the clock runs anyway, but at any rate, um, go down the bounce noise. Uh, but like that was a huge throw and then, you know, we threw to Del as well on the play where he,
00:25:44
Speaker
the fortuitous fumble forward that got us the first down. That was kind of crazy, which was the right call, by the way. um so you know he He did do that late. Also, that you mentioned the win probability. i mean if you look at I know you like to look at the ESPN Gamecast win probability. they It never dropped below 50% for Georgia. like it they That entire game, it never goes Kentucky's way.
00:26:07
Speaker
on the probability they never had more than the they never even it never even got to 50 i think the lowest was like 51 something um which is kind of how i felt like i was frustrated but it wasn't like we're gonna lose i don't know you know and i think all you felt that they were just gonna they were gonna figure it out which is yeah you know, that pedigree that that Kirby comes from. Like, these these these are the kind of games that Nick Saban and Alabama, like, always won, right? Like, even when they were on the ropes, you knew that they were going to figure out something. And that's kind of how Kirby Smart's program has taken. And that's the difference between, you know, what we, what we as fans have been used to in the past. Like, we talked to about, I think a lot more than, more than a handful of us have probably mentioned, like,
00:26:51
Speaker
If, if Kirby's smart, it's not here or, you know, if this was Mark, Rick or Don and or whatever, like, yeah, those, those are the games that we're used to losing yeah back into that. Yeah. Yeah. The Munsoning, the Munsoning in us, uh, felt that way. Yeah. Um, but you, whatever reason, you know, call it swagger, call it the Kirby smart effect, uh, whatever. You just felt like we were gonna, we were going to pull it out. Yeah.
00:27:17
Speaker
I watched a TikTok of someone that put that video, their dad, like this, this was, this was my husband watching the the Kentucky versus Georgia game. And it, and then you go to the comment section and they're like, how did you get in my house? Like, this is, this is every Georgia fan over the weekend. And it was like, the dad was like yelling at the, yelling at the screen. Like,
00:27:43
Speaker
Yeah, the only the only day I Need to talk to people about this the only downside of like ah us doing our porch our back porch Game viewing especially in a game like this is like I mean I like I mean I yell at the TV I know are in the our neighbors behind us or Tennessee fans. I know they're like up Jim's what's the game again?
00:28:02
Speaker
ah so and Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah I What was it? What was it that you and I are messaging each other for? um I said, I think it was like, not me yelling at the TV. And you're like, say, for the
Branson Robinson's Historic Touchdown
00:28:20
Speaker
same thing. I don't even remember what it was.
00:28:23
Speaker
Oh man, um, one thing I do want to call out, uh, kudos to Branson Robinson for his only touchdown of the game. Um, you know, he struggled in the opener. Um, and that was a, that was a big boy run and a moment where we needed, needed it where we had to score. We had to get a touchdown and, uh, he ran through a couple of defenders to score that touchdown. So that was,
00:28:48
Speaker
much needed um honestly kind of reminded me of Richard Samuel running against Florida in his last season at at Georgia um or second to last season at Georgia. um And the cocktail party kind of reminded me of that. Sometimes you need need the guy with that mentality to get in there and do that. So love to see that from him.
00:29:07
Speaker
Yeah, I think that I think that we did enough. I'm just, I don't know what the, I'm not really sure what was going on in that game other than it's, it's Kentucky on
Questioning Tactics: Pressuring the QB
00:29:20
Speaker
the road. Yeah. Well, the defense was elite. ah Let's, let's talk about the the Georgia defense for a minute. the The only, the thing that was interesting to me and something else that I texted my dad during the game was just like,
00:29:33
Speaker
We were, we were constantly getting to Van de Graaff, right? Like we were getting to him, we' we're getting in his face. Um, but sometimes it was to our detriment because, you know, Brock Van de Graaff has some wheels he can run. And he ran by us a few times where we got our rush got so far a field, uh, into the backfield that he made us pay for it. Um,
00:29:54
Speaker
There was a point in the game where I was almost like, I wonder if we should sit back more and, you know, and like contain and not let him break contain, uh, cause I'm not as worried about him throwing. Um, you know, obviously I don't know what I'm talking about because we cause we caused, you know, or some fumbles and it got to have had some really huge, um, sacks that ultimately were probably the difference in the game. So don't listen to me, but, uh, it just felt, it felt odd. Like it, there were times where it felt like they were letting us.
00:30:24
Speaker
You know, get to him so that they could go around that. But um the pressure was was real in this game. We hit the over on coaches over under on sex for the first time. So they they did. They did show you. They did show you, John. They did show me. um Yeah, I don't.
00:30:41
Speaker
i found I found the the thing that we were that we were yelling about. It was the fumble it was the fumble that the refs didn't blow the whistle on. which all right let's let's let's let's I'll use that as a segue. So you and I were texting and I was like, I am literally screaming at the that's a TV, get the ball, get the ball, get the ball, because nobody there was a fumble that happened i can't remember what it was it was i guess it was like a was it uh it wasn't it it was an incomplete pass but it was correct it was vandergriff it was like a tip ball like stackhouse maybe or somebody tipped it and went straight up that that's the play we're talking about right yeah okay correct but
00:31:20
Speaker
the referees didn't blow the whistle. So the whistle wasn't blown dead. So that means that if the referee didn't blow the whistle, it is a live ball, right? Right. Right. So even if it gets reviewed or whatever, like if the ref doesn't blow the whistle, like that's the kind of game that we were ah experiencing both from a mentality standpoint and from an officiating standpoint. The officials had an abysmal day there. today. And I felt like that wasn't the only play where they were very late on the whistle and the decisions were super delayed. I mean, I mean, shoot, at the end of the game, they were putting time on the clock. Like, like there's there's the whole time, like we're even, even Stoops was like, what?
00:32:04
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, the the end, the end of the game was was wild. I mean, honestly, the whole thing started. I mean, we had there was like a fight on the first punt, basically, um which I mean, frankly, that should have been offsetting penalties. I mean, Lovett should have got a flag to all of it that like, you know, i I can admit when I see wrong things that go towards.
00:32:24
Speaker
Um, that happened that suplex the guy twice. Yeah. Yeah. And, and, in and it was like two flags on Kentucky. That's why they were at their like one yard line. Um, so that was, that was interesting. Uh, they missed, uh, Starks pulled the guy's hel helmet off. They miss that. They call the face pass gone down. It was super obvious. Like the back judge should have seen that.
00:32:43
Speaker
um they did they they correctly call the face mask on them on that way but again that should have been offsetting um they didn't blow the whistle on that one play which they they eventually did and that one was correct um i don't understand the uh should we talk about the interception the pick six that wasn't like i still i'm seeing kataki fans complaining about that like I don't know what to tell you, like the ball hit the ground. So he's dead. Like that's the end of the discussion. Like I've seen some lodges like, well, um, if this then is like, okay, but that's not, that's not what happened. Like I've seen people say that his hand love its hands were under the ball and that's not what the video shows. So.
00:33:22
Speaker
I know we're at least people during the Alabama game. Yeah, exactly. like Last year. Exactly. Exactly. It was exactly that. So yeah, it is incomplete. But yeah, that but the end of the game. complete It's a first down. Right. Right. The end of the game was the wildest probably of all of them. Like they Kentucky basically got a free time out. I mean, they didn't do anything with it. But like the clock, I mean, they the the clock kept running after they got a first down. It should not have. The clock should have immediately stopped.
00:33:51
Speaker
And the clock starts going when they set the ball ready to play, like they spot the ball, move the change clock runs, not in the snap on the ready. And because they ran it down to zero, then they had to reset it and they, you know, they got it. They basically had a free time out and it was. serious But they reset it, but like then the referee was standing over the ball and they were still like yeah bringing on players and stuff like that. I was like, i was like what is going on? like It should be 0-0 right now. like yeah Why is the clock not running? like The referee can't stand over the ball the whole time. like That's literally the definition of it.
00:34:27
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. It was, it was weird. It was weird. Um, and yeah and I And I'll say it like that. I feel like that this whole thing started because they called a, uh, they called a roughing the passer on, on, on Jaylen Walker, which was what I thought was one of the most egregious calls I'd ever seen until I saw the, uh, I think it was, was it Cal and.
00:34:55
Speaker
UCLA or something like that. I can't remember what the game was. Pitt. Pitt and Cal made it. No, it was Pitt and West Virginia. Pitt and West Virginia. I knew it was some blue and yellow team. But yeah, dude, it was a bad weekend for the refs on the roughing the passer call. On the roughing the passer call because that play and that game, the guy got called for roughing the passer when the quarterback still had the ball in his hand.
00:35:21
Speaker
like How do you get called for roughing the passer when you sat literally sack the quarterback? Jalen Walker just hit the quarterback like 0.0000 seconds away after he threw the ball and he still got called for roughing the passer. I think even the the announcers were like, what do you want what do you want him to do?
00:35:42
Speaker
Yeah. And the call was driving the quarterback into the ground, which you're not allowed to do, but I don't, with, with the way that play went, like he hit him, he's off his feet. I don't know what he's supposed to do. Like literally it was gravity.
00:35:57
Speaker
but So the call was the call was that he was driving the quarterback into the ground. Yes, that's the sometimes they had. So for you should love this job. It's a clarifying penalty. ah they The the call was roughing the passer, driving the quarterback into the ground. There's like various. So there's like the late hit version. There's different varieties of roughing the passer as to like what what caused them to throw the flag, they will specify sometimes. So this one was roughing. Like this is literally, if you go back and watch it, that's the ref literally said that when he announced it, he said roughing the passer, driving the quarterback into the ground. Basically, if you hit them late, you can't like throw them into the ground. That's what it was originally written for. This one is throw them in the ground. No, he he was trying to tackle him. That's my point. He didn't like yeah this. This is one where I don't know. what ah Again, the announcers, in my opinion, were correct. Like
00:36:49
Speaker
I don't know what he's supposed to do. And even, I believe Matt Austin, the rules official, said the same thing, I believe, from what I recall. So, I don't know. um But yes, that was the call. Well, in in the other game, the the pit West Virginia game that I was talking about, Todd Blackledge was like, that's a sack. Yeah. So, yep. Yeah. It was rough on that front. Yeah. I mean, that was like the third and long sack by Walker that
00:37:19
Speaker
yeah the me done so Yeah, so that play was a was a game-changing penalty because they would have had to punt and we would have had Like it basically flipped the field. Yeah for lack of a better description know Would we have done anything with it though? We didn't do anything we didn't do anything with a field goal out of the fumble what we got yeah, we had the ball on good 26, so Yeah, well, so let's go to how things like sparked for Kentucky. So we get it we we pin them down, you know, they're inside the but five yard line or something like that. um I remember thinking that I was I had just, you know, of like the that Harrison Ford Star Wars, I got a bad feeling about this.
00:38:06
Speaker
Um, when we pin them down into the, their end zone where Van de Griff is, you know, basically taking a snap from it, from his own end zone. And Dan Jackson comes off like a bolt of lightning off the edge. And I was like, Oh my God, he's going to sack the quarterback. We're going to get a safety here.
00:38:27
Speaker
and he takes just a slightly wrong angle and goes outside and Chaz Chambliss gets held whatever I mean I could sit here and talk about Chaz on that particular play um but it really wasn't just Chaz it was the entire defensive line got completely moved laterally left yeah and that and And so Dan's decision to go outside instead of just force Vandergriff outside, even if he didn't get home, Vandergriff would have had to have moved outside of the pocket as opposed to taking a step forward into a completely wide open running lane. Yeah.
00:39:06
Speaker
When he started taking off and was running free, I was like, Oh my gosh, this is, this is not good because that's exactly what his game is. Right? Like he's not, he's not a particularly like great passer. I mean, he had like 50% completion percentage. Um, but you give him that confidence boost of like, wow, they brought the house, they brought dirty Dan in my face and I just ran right by him.
00:39:32
Speaker
That's the kind of confidence boost that an opposing quarterback needs when he's trying to prove prove something. it's the it's It would be the equivalent of Carson Beck coming out and making a couple of quick outs to receivers just to get some confidence going.
00:39:47
Speaker
Tate Ratlidge and Brett Thorsen were talking about that, that like when you're an offensive lineman in order to get into a groove, shout out to, uh, mullets on the, mullets on the mic, on the mic, um, their, their new podcast that I was listening to them on Saturday. Um,
00:40:05
Speaker
And he said the same thing, like, you know, you want to get out there and you want to get some confidence boost you as an offensive lineman, you want to get out there and just get some easy plays just to get into the, into the groove. And that's exactly what happened for Vandygriff in that particular play. Yeah. Offensive line, ah offensive line took everything that Georgia had and Vandygriff just takes off and does what he does in the open field. Yeah.
00:40:29
Speaker
Yeah. I mean, it it was a big, it was a big spark. I know Vandygriff didn't have the greatest stats, but I thought he, he left it all in the field. Thought he played his heart out, um, to the tip of the cap to him. Um, I don't know if you've seen the post game, like Kirby talking to both him and JDJ, uh, it's pretty cool. So, you know, he he does, he doesn't burn those bridges. So.
00:40:51
Speaker
Yeah, that was cool. I mean, what he had to say about them was was also equally as cool. You know, he talked about vandergrift and came into his office in tears trying to he had a transfer. So yeah, they they had a good game. They gave us they gave us all we could handle.
00:41:06
Speaker
I think we talked about 2022's game with Kentucky, yeah but we also had we had we had a couple of clunkers in that in that season. So, you know, it happens every every good every season, every every good team has a has a game where, you know, things don't go according to plan. And, you know, what's what's the saying? Like, good team good teams win, great teams cover, whatever. um Well, even greater teams win their clunkers. Yeah, yeah, no, for sure, for sure. um Yeah, I think, you know, is this our, was this ah the Missouri game is kind of what you kind of hoped for her shoot Auburn or Auburn last year, you know, first and there too, like first road game, first road game, first road conference game. um So, I don't know.
00:41:58
Speaker
We'll see. And we've got it. You know, we had a lot of young guys out there. Um, we've got a lot of new faces. Tate Radlage went down. Um, and it sounds like we're not going to have him back for multiple weeks per reports. Um, it looks bad. It looks a lot worse to me. Like on TV did look on his face. I was pretty de dejected.
00:42:16
Speaker
I, there was a nice moment though. I don't know. I felt kind of like this would maybe be the kind of moment that you and I would have in a similar situation. John, I don't know if you saw the camera got a shot of like Brett Thorsen consoling Tate Radledge on the sideline. I was like, ah, the podcast co-hosts talking to each other on the sideline is that was, that was cool.
00:42:36
Speaker
Okay, ah but um ah let's ah let's have our Thorsen minute here.
Brett Thorsen's Unexpected Scuffle
00:42:43
Speaker
um Okay. Brent Thorsen wants all the smoke guys. He was joking on his podcast that he doesn't like to run. oh and And Tate was like joking about how like, he he wishes that he could be a specialist because they don't have to do nearly half the stuff. He talked about like, what what what is warm up and all that stuff. And basically, Brett was talking about how he's got a He's got a stretch and you know right flink fling his legs about. um Well, on that scuffle, on that scuffle on his punt, on the on the punt return where ah was starks Starks had the suplex, right? Love it. Love it. Love it. Sorry. Love it. Love it had the suplexes. And there there was that that melee on the on the Kentucky sideline. If you go back and rewind it and look,
00:43:30
Speaker
there is a joker all up in the Kentucky sideline and it is Brett Thorson who literally comes from out of nowhere like out of nowhere just this this white streak just comes right into the center of the circle and he's like everybody's pulling him back and he's grabbing some Kentucky players shirt like from the back
00:43:52
Speaker
and it was It was Aussie rules it was ossie rules football, I guess. as i'm trying to I'm trying to come up with like the Crocodile Dundee style line that he could have had in the middle of it. but It's escaping me right now. That's not a penalty. This is a penalty.
00:44:10
Speaker
That's not a penalty. This is a penalty. Well done. Well done. you Thank you for saving that. Oh, man. Yeah. um But yeah, Brett Thorsen wanted all the smoke. And they talked a lot about his ah his streak of of no punt returns, which I feel like has kind of started to become just like this like amazing stat that nobody really talks about.
00:44:35
Speaker
Yeah, I agree. um you you had it was you had a for You had a foreshadowing on the local kid, the the Kentucky kicker. I did it. And you know and you know what? I had that, again, one of those other one another one of those moments where like I wish I had just shut the hell up in the precast preview.
00:44:54
Speaker
um Cause I knew that like we were going to hear his name a lot and I saw him come up and when he was about to kick this 55 yard field goal, I was like, if he makes it, it's going to be a long day. If he misses it, we'll be ah we'll be all right. And of course he goes up and nails a career long field goal. Yeah. um Dude, kids really good. He was good.
00:45:13
Speaker
He was he was automatic. I felt like Nostradamus talking about him on the podcast before ah I had my inside sources. But dude, that kid is really good. He's probably gonna be playing on Sundays. Yeah, he was good. He was good.
00:45:28
Speaker
Um, but yeah, I told you that I told you that we would hear his name for sure. I, I do want to hit on, I want your opinion on, um, the fact that Kentucky punted the ball back to Georgia with three minutes to go in the game and all their time mounts and two minute warning. Like I was personally surprised. Like when they just, when they lined up in pun formation, like I was, I just assumed they would go forward there. Um, I've read some stuff today, kind of like in defense of, of stoops decision, but.
00:45:57
Speaker
I mean you got the number one team in the country on the ropes you've lost 14 straight to them kind of feels like the time to to go for it I I i would have gone for it but what do I know I just play are we talking about when when when Kentucky had the ball it was the it was our last one right when Kentucky had the ball Yeah, they were at their 48. It was for their 48 year, fourth and seven, fourth and eight, something like that. Three so minutes to go. and So here's, so here's, here's my thought on it. So there was a false start that happened that pushed them into the, into the 48 year. Let me clarify one thing. They were already, they, that false start occurred in punt formation. Okay. So they didn't, they didn't line up to go for it and get a false start and then punt. They lined up to punt, got a false start before they punted and then punted.
00:46:45
Speaker
You don't think that they were trying to see if if UGA would jump offsides? Oh, I gotcha. They were trying to so art let's get information draws offsides. Exactly. So let's let's talk let's talk about like just the overall special teams for both teams in that regard. UGA did this so many times where we lined up in in situations where literally nobody in the stadium thought that they were going to snap the ball on fourth down. Yeah.
00:47:12
Speaker
um yeah And we get out there, and you can tell. You can tell when when we're we're just pretending because I could hear Carson Beck screaming. yeah like You could hear him when the stadium is rocking. yeah And you could hear him clapping. he he's His claps got super loud. like It was so obvious. like you You guys are not winning an Academy Award, guys. right nobody Nobody thinks you're going to do it. To the point where we did it we did it so many times in this game,
00:47:42
Speaker
to the point where I was like, Jim, there's there's no way we're going to snap this ball. However, if we decided to snap this ball, Kentucky was literally not ready for it. But we probably could have gotten a first down on at least one of those because Kentucky was just not ready for our, like, you know, if if you if you're going to disguise something, disguise it, rope a dopamine like nobody thought that you were going to do it. But then all of a sudden you do it because they're literally just I mean,
00:48:08
Speaker
At one point I saw one of their defensive ends. He was just kind of like sitting on the ground almost. That was at the very end of the game. Like right before we pointed at the very end, our last, yeah, I think I texted both you and my dad like, well, at this point I wish we had gone for it because like they were basically like laughing at us like we're not going to fall for your hard snap count. Like perfect time to snap it. I don't know. I mean, I guess maybe you just don't do that, but like I felt like we could have got it too, but. Yeah, it was fourth and four. Yeah.
00:48:35
Speaker
Yeah. right We were also in, uh, we were in field goal range. I would not saying that we should have kicked a field goal. We should not have. i I agree. If you're going to kick, I agree. And I do that. You don't want to, uh, you don't want to risk a ah block field goal any of the game. So, um, but yeah, there was that that's the moment. I mean, you're right. Their defensive end was like, he was like laughing and like pointing. Like I'm not, I'm not falling. Like we're not falling for this.
00:48:58
Speaker
Yeah, that's what I'm saying like yeah, but say you but but you agree with the or you don't have issues With them planning it at the end when they did I mean, I guess that the the flip side of it was, so we so they they punted it. mean you They punted it and we took it over on our own 15-yard line. Yeah. So you're basically banking on the fact that you have two um almost three minutes almost three minutes to get something done there. Yeah. And they had they they did have all three timeouts and the two-minute warning. So they basically had four timeouts.
00:49:34
Speaker
We had just held them to like, this was this is where we we we should have had the Kirby death march. um But we had a three play minute and 36 second drive, the drive before.
00:49:51
Speaker
guy and So they had shut us down in that one. And if you're in that situation where, you know, there's no way George is going to throw the ball here, I think that he probably had a, I mean, that's, that's, that's the way the game goes. Like yeah this, this particular game went is that Kentucky thought that they could contain our offense to get the ball back with some time left to go because we were so bad in the game.
00:50:17
Speaker
I will say too. And again, I know the Bobo hitters are out and like, I'm not going to, you know, whatever, but at the end of the game, I feel like he and the team did the opposite of what they thought we're going to do. Like, cause you're Mark Stoops, you're thinking, George is going to try to run the clock out. They're not going to risk throwing the ball because they want to force us to take our time out. So they're going to run every play. And we didn't i mean we came out throwing, I mean, Beck ran play action and we had hit a,
00:50:41
Speaker
30-something yard past the Dominic Lovett. That was huge. i And that was, offensively, probably the play of the game, um you know to to spark that. We still ended up having a punt, and but that was it that was a huge play. So ah kudos there. i was Honestly, I was shocked. like When Beck ran and play action, I was like, oh man, we're throwing? but Really? I was shocked. And we needed it. We needed it. I mean, pulled that out of the bag. That was the Kirby death march.
00:51:10
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Eight plays, 45 yards, two minutes and 49 seconds basically ended the game. Yeah. And Stu's is like, ah, crap, you got me again. Yeah. So, all right. here's heres I guess here's the other thing, though, like, you know, for or against it, like, so let's say that you did get the ball back, like, let's say that they they held them You're still, you're still going to have to march. Let's say that they did it. They took a minute off the clock. We'll see. yeah They have, they would have had like a minute left had, had things gone the way they wanted the way that they wanted it. They, so they stopped them. Yeah. They called timeout. They reserved the play or whatever. You're still going to have to throw the ball, which they hadn't done particularly well. Yeah. like I don't know. Yeah.
00:51:55
Speaker
Well, all they had to do was get in within rainers range, which as we saw was was deep. So that's true. all i am was a field I imagine stoops will probably be stewing over that decision. Yeah. Yeah. For a while. I don't know how much we want to get into this, but I do know I do want to at least mention it because I've seen it online and we heard about it from Brett. I feel like Brett will be upset if we don't mention.
00:52:16
Speaker
it is odd that the red coats weren't there i don't know what all is going on but i know like the the road dogs that the travel were sending us stuff saying where's the band the band was not this game um which i i think ah one of the things i texted to you is that was Just adds to the manufactured adversity, conspiracy theory, manufacturing adversity by not having Krypton fanfare play at the start of the fourth quarter. I I imagine the band will be in Tuscaloosa in two weeks, but I think it's in the band. It's in the band. They should be there. Yeah. it's it's the ah It's the UGA version of the lone gunman theory. Yeah. There had to there had have been more than one facet of manufactured adversity.
00:53:04
Speaker
oh they're right Okay, so i I'm not a, i have I don't typically go on the road games, right? Like I'm barely able to go to the handful of games at home, but I guess I didn't realize that this was a thing. Like there have been some games in the past where we have not sent a ah banned presence to away games. I guess this is like, this is foreign concept to me because I thought that that was an always on situation. like I recognize you don't take the full band. And I didn't realize, because Brett said that the we we send a full band to some of these away games. yeah um I didn't realize the and didn't realized that we had some you know different approaches for different games. but
00:53:50
Speaker
I always thought that there was at least a small and kind of like the traveling the traveling squad like i realize that financially doesn't make a whole lot of sense to bring the whole band or whatever. But like to bring no band to an sec game. Yes really really really short sighted so.
00:54:08
Speaker
if you were a person that has connections into the athletic association, because my understanding is is that the reason like the reason that there is a band or no band or whatever is 100% on the athletic association.
00:54:21
Speaker
Yeah, like they make the call of when they make the decision on who's going, who's going when and what are like, but, you know, by and large, a lot of these a lot of these guys at home, and, you know, just to be a part of the band, a lot of them go into their own personal, you know, finances to to be a part of the the program or whatever. But to go on the road, it's ah it's it's on the athletic association. Yeah. And to me, to be a program that is recruiting at the level that it does, winning at the level it does, generating income at the level that it does, this should be an absolute no-brainer to have a banned presence for SEC games. And when we have our traditional rivalries, when we have a top 10 match, like I would argue that there needs to be a full banned at those games.
00:55:12
Speaker
Yeah, and I'm trying to remember. Like I don't I don't go to road games like I used to. I guess at this point, I don't know, I guess my hard to remember. It feels like the band was always there at the road games. I went to back, and you know, back in the day in school, but I could be wrong. I could probably go through the list with Brad. He could probably tell us.
00:55:30
Speaker
Tell me which games there was or wasn't that I went to back in back in school but um I will say like it is a there's nothing and I remember thinking this like in school like I will say the redcoat band when you're on the road is huge like it it makes a big it makes a big I don't I'm not going to try to quantify how big of an impact it makes for the guys in the field. But as a fan, it does make a huge deal. Like when you hear your fight song playing in another school stadium like that, yeah, it means something. And like it it fires the fan base up. So it does. There's no. And again, like the fourth quarter came when we did the fourth light up, ah light up South Bend, you know, like Notre Dame, like it was amazing. um And you know that didn't happen in in Lexington on Saturday.
00:56:18
Speaker
I don't, I don't get it, but. That was the thing. That was the, the, the, the trigger. I think that kind of started this whole thing was that people were trying to light up Sanford, but realized that it it wasn't happening. Yeah. Yeah. Krypton wasn't playing. So as a university, you build these traditions. And then when we go on the road, that tradition dies. Right. Yeah. F that. Yeah. Sorry, Carter. Yeah. So.
00:56:45
Speaker
It was weird. and I guess we we'll see. we'll we'll We'll continue to follow this this story to track the Redcode band. we We'll have to add our Redcode band tracker going forward. Yeah. Josh, come on, Ben. Make it happen.
00:56:57
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Um, but yeah, I think overall, you know, like, I know like, um, we were all melting down on Twitter on Saturday during the game. Although I try to keep stuff just to texting, like didn't really tweet much from the podcast account, uh, during the game. Um, but usually the first week, once the game starts is after the first touchdown and tickle while the first to happen. But I think of the bottom line is, you know like you said, we didn't play well and we won. You win your clunkers. We literally are in the midst of the longest regular season win game win streak in the history of the Southeastern Conference. It's not too bad.
00:57:43
Speaker
Yeah, um i'd rather I'd rather that street continue than to have the opposite, even if it means beating Kentucky 13-12 on the road. Uh, oh, before I forget, uh, cause I was about to forget this coaches over unders, not a good week for us. Shocking, uh, based on how we, we thought everything, but you maintain a slight lead. Uh, you have a one, one pick lead over me. Um, so I, I actually made up a little bit of ground, uh, but you still maintain that lead. So coach, thank you for, uh, for checking those as always brutal, brutal day for me. me
00:58:20
Speaker
Hey, you got the you hit the over, you're you're hedging when I said the over on the two and a half sacks, and you stick with me. That that one decision, John. One decision. That kept your lead in place, so the strategic paid off.
00:58:36
Speaker
never Never underestimate the the the ability to strategic strategize coaches are over unders early in the season. So good. so good um I guess program note, like no no game this week. I don't think we'll do another episode this week, although there's been talks of maybe we may hop in some other Twitter spaces or something like that that folks are hosting. um so if that is happening. Well, ah Josh and Chad have their Twitter space every Wednesday night. know was ah I would always recommend attending that. um dufo Dog stats on Twitter, he always announces when that'll be. ah So going to try to make that Wednesday night. um If anything else pops up, we will ah but let folks know.
00:59:20
Speaker
Yes. And then, and then we, we have, we have a week to recover. Um, good Lord. We have some injuries. Um, couldn't have gone. I guess it could have always, it could always be worse, but, um, certainly could have been a lot better on the injury front. Um, that was, ah that was a goal for me was to get out of here without some injuries and that did not happen. No, did not.
00:59:41
Speaker
I mean, Carson heard his, uh, what was it? The C joint or whatever AC joint yeah like non on his non throwing shoulder. So, uh, watch that space moving forward. Cause he looked uncomfortable at the end of the game.
00:59:56
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. We will, um, definitely need to listen out, uh, in Kirby's upcoming press conferences and then, uh, check that, uh, the injury report or the availability
Injury Concerns: Focus on Carson Beck
01:00:09
Speaker
report. Oh, we'll have to make sure to review that next time. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I guess we should have reviewed it this time. We didn't see 120. It was actually, it was way smaller than I expected. It was actually, it was just like the guys that were going to be out and the guys were questionable. Like it was like, uh, seemed pretty legit. So.
01:00:26
Speaker
It was legit, it wasn't. Although to much much to ah Chip Towers, Chagrin, it looks like suspensions are not on that list. It it is a does appear to be an injury. Yeah. um can we Can we take the keys away from everybody for a week or two? Mark Rick was on to something with those scooters, man.
01:00:46
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. Ride your scooter. Leave, me the leave the car at home. Uber. to say I was just about to say Uber, Uber it. Yeah. Not a sponsor yet. but Cool. I don't think I've got anything else on this one, man. Um, survive in advance. All, all the goals are still on the, on the table.
01:01:07
Speaker
Yeah, for sure. For sure. Hey, better better to do this and and in this game. Get a bit of a wake-up call, get the smelling salts for the team. Got two weeks to focus on the the next one because it's going to be the... Yep, those guys are going to become... They're going to become an angry. They're going to be gunning for the the record for our... I'm sure that they're going to be drilled in it's going to be drilled into their head that we have the the best... The best the the most consecutive wins in the SEC history that's going to be dropped into their head over and over again. yeah Yeah. Anything else? I don't think so. I think i think we've talked about the 13 to 12 win as much as we can. ah One thing that we didn't talk about, did what did you did you have a bourbon? Did you did you do Kentucky bourbon?
01:01:52
Speaker
During the game. Yeah. No, I had a, I did have a, I had a Weller special reserve as my nightcap victory. up Nice. Yeah. Maybe that was the problem. About halfway through, about halfway through a halftime. I was like, man, I haven't had a bourbon yet. I need to, I need to get one going.
01:02:11
Speaker
I actually usually don't drink bourbon during the game. After is pretty, that's more standard for me. I'll have like a beer or something. Um, yeah, which I did. I did do that. I didn't have, did have a beer on the porch, uh, while watching. So yeah. Well, my, my, my game, game day adjustment is going to be to get the bourbon flowing early. nice Nice. I definitely, I definitely changed hats during the game twice. I will admit that.
01:02:35
Speaker
Oh yeah, I saw your... that Apparently a lot of us were in the same boat. I accidentally did not change. yeah and I was not one of the one of the ones that changed because I'm of the opinion that has no impact and no bearing on the game. it is it has a respect I respect it.
01:02:57
Speaker
It has no impact whatsoever. ah it's It happens out of frustration with me sometimes. Yes. I got to go change. I got to go change. I had the thought, but I was like, nope, we're going to pull it out. I guess that was kind of like Bobo in the in the game plan. Nope. this We're going to stick to it. This is manufacturing diversity. We're going to work through it and we're going to get out of here. We're going to figure this out. You knew that your your game day fit was going to work from what you saw on film. Yes. And it did. You were right. You were right.
01:03:26
Speaker
indeed That's good. Good times. All right. Let's, uh, let's turn the page and we're, we're going to get into, get into bi-week. Um, well, Jim, there will be football on this weekend and Georgia will not be among them. So let's, let's, let's use this. Let's use this weekend to figure out our our game day attire and our game day situations for Alabama. And, uh, we'll be tanned, rested and ready for, for the titers.
01:03:59
Speaker
Sounds like a plan. All right, man. Well, it was fun texting. I'm glad that the game is over, though. And go dogs. Go dogs.
