00:01:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
was a Big 12 loss, too.
00:01:00
Zack
That's true. yeah
00:01:02
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I would like to not throw that out.
00:01:03
Mason
Like, is that your surprise of the week? Something from two weeks ago.
00:01:10
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
No, that's not my surprise. i just I very much care about what's going on in the Big 12, and Kansas State getting a conference loss is a big deal.
00:01:16
Mason
Oh, yeah. That's a good point. That is a big deal. But it ah as it came to like excitement and enjoyment, it was not and comes nowhere close to week one.
00:01:26
Mason
And we're here. We made it.
00:01:27
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Well, I mean, yeah, obviously. Mason's just trying to get rid of football again.
00:01:32
Mason
No, that's not the case.
00:01:32
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Just because he was...
00:01:33
Mason
We either go all in on week zero or we we get rid of it.
00:01:34
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
he was
00:01:37
Mason
We don't do this in the middle where it's kind of good, but not really.
00:01:37
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
No. This guy was on a cruise in Alaska.
00:01:41
Mason
That's a good point.
00:01:42
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That's why he didn't care about Week Zero. Trying to get rid of football for the rest of us.
00:01:46
Mason
Well, I was wondering, did I miss anything? And does it Kansas State? Whoop-de-doo. That's the only thing I missed, apparently. like
00:01:52
Zack
Wow, this guy.
00:01:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
This guy. That's a big game for people that bet on conference championship contenders.
00:01:58
Zack
That's true, Mason.
00:02:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Kansas State was the favorite. That's
00:02:03
Mason
a good point. Okay, well, we started out the gate.
00:02:04
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
an excellent point. This guy. Once again, Mason's trying to get rid of football. I think you did this last year, too.
00:02:10
Mason
That is not the case.
00:02:11
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
You're like, do we really need week zero?
00:02:12
Zack
He's like, guys, what if we had less football?
Upcoming Content and Superlatives
00:02:16
Mason
I just want a better week zero if we're going to do it. That's good point.
00:02:19
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Take what you get, man. Like I said, come come June, you're begging for anything. Any football.
00:02:25
Zack
True.
00:02:28
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And here you are trying to get rid of it.
00:02:28

Next Guy Up Podcast Network

Game and Performance Highlights
00:03:16
Zack
have a lot in the pipeline. We had a lot of football this weekend.
00:03:19
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yes.
00:03:19
Zack
We were just talking about before how it was yet football Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. We're recording this on Monday evening as we speak. Bill Belichick is making his coaching debut.
00:03:32
Zack
I'm speaking it into existence in the could age really bad, really fast take of the year. Shout out the North Carolina Targets for Bill Belichick's first win as a college coach.
00:03:44
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
need it so some of us got some big features on North Carolina for some reason
00:03:50
Zack
Oh, I know why.
00:03:52
Mason
For
00:03:53
Zack
let's stop I can't talk about that. Every take I say is just going to age poorly if they lose. So we're just going to scoot past that one.
00:03:58
Mason
for the listeners, it's tied 7-7 in the first quarter, so just ended.
00:03:59
Zack
It's a tie game. So we're all good.
00:04:04
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
it's four quarters in a football game last time I checked
00:04:06
Zack
There's so many quarters. We had a lot of, we had some big games. We had Ohio State, Texas. We had Clemson, LSU, Miami, Notre Dame. ah We had some big stuff go down. We had some four top 10 teams in total lose in week one.
00:04:23
Zack
That's a lot of top 10 teams. So we had some interesting stuff. We are going to break down all of the action and we have decided on kind of our framework for talking about the games this season.
00:04:35
Zack
We have some superlatives we're going to give out for the football that we have watched over the course of the weekend. Right now it's only college, so all three of us are giving college takes.
00:04:47
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
right.
00:04:47
Zack
um So we have four superlatives, including Mason.
00:04:48
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Including Mason.
00:04:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Big college football guy.
00:04:52
Mason
i did i did I did my homework.
00:04:53
Zack
Famous hater of college football.
00:04:56
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Famous, going out and doing things all days on Saturdays and not watching college football.
00:04:57
Zack
What's less college football?
00:05:01
Mason
i actually watched some games this weekend. i know what I'm...
00:05:04
Zack
Oh, wow.
00:05:04
Mason
Yeah.
00:05:06
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Mason will be out at a pumpkin patch soon, missing college football, while me and Zach are ignoring our families watching Houston versus Louisiana Tech or something crazy.
00:05:11
Zack
Can't wait.
00:05:11
Mason
Yeah.
00:05:19
Mason
Did I do something like that last year? i feel like you're actually probably right about that.
00:05:25
Zack
um
00:05:25
Mason
Listen, go ahead.
00:05:26
Zack
So we have, um we're adding a wrinkle in this year.
00:05:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
It was right.
00:05:29
Zack
This is, ah we get with this idea. may be a really bad one.
Unexpected Outcomes and Frauds
00:05:33
Zack
um Here is the idea. ah so there's four superlatives. um Here, those superlatives are for game of the week, performance of the week, surprise of the week, and fraud of the week.
00:05:49
Zack
And so here's how these superlatives are going to go. ah Each of us are going to pick our nomination with the wrinkle of if one of us, so we have to pick beforehand,
00:06:00
Zack
if one of us picks the same thing as one of the other two guys on this podcast, ah I think what we need to do is the, every time that you pick the same as someone else, both of you get point.
00:06:14
Zack
And at the end of the season, whoever has the most points total has to do a punishment of some sort.
00:06:18
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
punishment. I absolutely love this.
00:06:20
Mason
I love a good punishment.
00:06:21
Zack
So, um so what we're going to is every time. So let's say that tens and I both pick the same game of the week. Um, isn't there, there's like there's like a childhood game like this where you, you say numbers, right?
00:06:34
Zack
Or whatever. And you, if you can't say them at the same time, it's kind of the same idea here.
00:06:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
yeah.
00:06:39
Zack
Um, we can't pick the same game or else we both get a point.
00:06:43
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:06:44
Zack
Uh, it's an honor system, Mason.
00:06:45
Mason
We...
00:06:46
Zack
So you have to, you can't change stuff as we go. Talking to Mason. Um,
00:06:52
Mason
why would i Why am I targeted? i have it on a notepad right now.
00:06:54
Zack
I don't know. Mason is the one that I'm concerned about because he's going to go fully NFL. um It's going to be hard to get him points.
00:07:00
Mason
Oh, yeah. We can maybe do college just college for that.
00:07:06
Zack
I don't know.
00:07:06
Mason
We can figure it out.
00:07:07
Zack
There could be some.
00:07:08
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:07:08
Mason
um
00:07:08
Zack
Yeah.
00:07:10
Mason
ah What you were talking about just then, about like if people get the same... We played a game in like elementary school. Just quick story. where you put like your hands behind your back, and when you put your hands out, you had a number, and if you matched with somebody else, you were out.
00:07:20
Zack
Okay. Okay.
00:07:23
Mason
So ah that was the thing.
00:07:24
Zack
Yeah, it's like that.
00:07:25
Mason
Yeah, just like it.
00:07:26
Zack
ah So the um the idea is that we know there's a lot of sports podcasts out there. There's some great content out there. ah We want to make sure we're covering the stuff that ah we don't want to just replay the same talking points as everybody else. We want to we want to give our spin.
00:07:44
Zack
We want to talk about the games. We're going to we're introducing a new segment starting in the our end of week episode that we'll be willll be showing then. But we're going to talk about some interesting games that we that we thought were fun.
00:07:54
Zack
Ohio State, Texas, not the only game this weekend.
00:07:58
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:07:59
Zack
You'll be shocked to hear. There's a lot of football. So we're going to talk about some stuff. I'm pretty excited. Are you two ready, ready to roll?
00:08:07
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, I'm ready. I got my notepad ready.
00:08:09
Mason
Let's do it.
00:08:10
Zack
um OK, so we're starting with game of the week. I'm pretty concerned to hear out the outset, I'll be honest with you.
00:08:20
Zack
Okay, let's just go one at a time through the game of the week and and we'll see if we have any the over crossover. then Then we'll spend a little bit time with each one. Are you ready?
00:08:28
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
All right. Yep. Ready.
00:08:29
Zack
Okay, Mason, what'd you pick here?
00:08:31
Mason
I picked Auburn versus Baylor as my game of the week.
00:08:38
Zack
Great pick.
00:08:38
Mason
jackson Jackson Arnold had 137 yards rushing, two touchdowns. i think there was either kickoff or a long punt. Let me look. It was a special teams touchdown.
00:08:53
Mason
A 98-yard kickoff return. And the Baylor quarterback, he had over 400 yards throwing in that game. 419. Sawyer Robertson had 419 yards.
00:09:01
Zack
Mm.
00:09:03
Mason
Auburn had four hundred and nineteen yards
00:09:06

Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Miami up two scores going into the fourth quarter. Young freshman quarterback, CJ Carr, brings them back ah in a two-minute drill, ties up the game, but left too much time on the clock.
00:10:01

Um, I'm going to give my second place cause this, I was toying between two. I really thought it's my pick this other one. So that's why i didn't pick it. Uh, Georgia tech, Colorado, very fun game.
00:10:55
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
It was a fun game.
00:10:55
Zack
Um, and there was a very back and forth. It was in color. I wasn't, it was an awesome atmosphere. um And so that was my second place game of the week. But I'm going to go ahead and give my performance of the week um on top of it. Haynes King, quarterback for Georgia Tech.
Humorous Speculations and Conclusion
00:11:13
Zack
Tins, did you pick that too?
00:11:15
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
No, that would have been...
00:11:16
Zack
Okay, that would we be cooked.
00:11:17
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
We would have been done with this contest.
00:11:18
Zack
um Okay, so... Performance of the week.
00:11:22
Mason
already. alrighty
00:11:23
Zack
Haynes King, he put up he was injured. and he You could tell he was shaken up. Here is some of his stat line, though. he went 13 for yards one interception passing. touchdowns.
00:11:40
Zack
but his rushing yeah numbers nineteen carries for a hundred and fifty six yards eight point two yards per carry with three touchdowns
00:11:49
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
crazy
00:11:50
Zack
ah He willed that team to win. there was a He scored a touchdown late, 45-yard touchdown run ah where he was like limping into the end zone practically. Put the team on his back. ah Performance of the week, Haines King.
00:12:05
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Nice. um Okay. I'll go ahead my performance of the week. I went with Tommy Castellanos. Yeah. Hard word to say. ah This guy, he...
00:12:15
Mason
You did it.
00:12:16
Zack
I like that.
00:12:17
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
So, quarterback at Boston College for last few years. Got benched slash kind of quit on the team last year.
00:12:24
Zack
Awesome.
00:12:24
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um Enters the transfer portal. Goes to Florida State. Florida to State obviously has the year they had last year where everything... The whole world just fell apart. and They were terrible.
00:12:35
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
People are writing them off. They're 14-point underdogs at home to Alabama. And he says... He backs up some major trash talk.
00:12:45
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He said, Nick Saban is not there anymore. He can't come and save them. um they're not i don't know what they're going to be able to do to stop me.
00:12:51
Zack
la
00:12:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And he i mean he led them to a ah convincing victory.
00:12:55
Zack
act
00:12:58
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
thirty one seventeen I think, was the final score. um So backed up all the trash talk, performance of the week, beating up a once-proud Alabama program.
00:13:12
Zack
I like that.
00:13:13
Mason
I'm
00:13:13
Zack
Talk this trash. Back that up. You'll have to see it.
00:13:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I mean, i I was trashing him last week. I was like, there's no way this guy's going to. And then, i I mean, I took Florida State on the pod, but I was even trashing him before. I was like, well, that's just too many points. So he proved it he proved a lot of people wrong.
00:13:29
Zack
He did?
00:13:33
Mason
going to go with, I think Tinsley is going to hate this pick for performance of the week. were I think he was on Clemson. Were you on Clemson?
00:13:41
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
ah Yeah.
00:13:43
Mason
I'm going to go with Garrett Nussmeier just for...
00:13:47
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
And I was very much against LSU, I'll tell you that too.
00:13:49
Mason
Yeah, you were against... So now he...
00:13:51
Zack
Oh.
00:13:51
Mason
So he leads the odds in Heisman now after that performance just by a little bit.
00:13:57
Zack
no
00:13:58
Mason
um Now, here's the thing. The LSU, I looked because I was curious. They are tied for the most ah teams to play against a top 25 ranked team with seven, I believe. They play seven ranked.
00:14:15
Mason
Yeah, seven ranked opponents with... ah This season. They're tied LSU, Mississippi State, Oklahoma, and Florida. So if he can keep that...
00:14:24
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That's tough for Mississippi State considering.
00:14:27
Mason
ah Right? um Ended up scoring in the fourth quarter. That was only score in that ah late to take the lead to the seventeen ten game.
00:14:40
Mason
That is my performance of the week.
00:14:43
Zack
Love it.
00:14:46
Zack
Okay, Mason.
00:14:46
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah. Yeah. LSU really kind of put a hurtin' on me. on me
00:14:51
Mason
Yeah. Sorry, Tense.
00:14:52
Zack
You had some real anti-LSU takes on this podcast.
00:14:56
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That's all right, because they're still coming.
00:15:00
Mason
Well, he probably is happy to hear that they have seven ranked opponents on their schedule.
00:15:07
Zack
It's fine.
00:15:07
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I bet him to win the SEC. I sent the parlay, but still.
00:15:10
Mason
Oh, OK. There you go. OK, what do i what do we have next?
00:15:13
Zack
All Mason. Surprise the week.
00:15:16
Mason
Okay, this was kind of off the... It's just because I was shocked when I was looking at the box scores on the on the television at the time. I was not specifically watching the game because after you hear this matchup, but it was Kentucky actually not covering to Toledo.
00:15:34
Zack
Hmm.
00:15:34
Mason
ah They were 9.5, 10-point favorite on some of the... ah on some of the ah books and they only lost by six i believe so now i'm wondering is kentucky gonna be bad or was that just kind of a and they still won the game don't get me wrong but uh with and it was in kentucky 24 to 16 kentucky not covering the spread
00:16:02
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
It's interesting.
00:16:02
Zack
Mason, you must not have listened to it listen to our SEC over in the wind totals.
00:16:04
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:16:06
Mason
and of it I was listening. i just
00:16:08
Zack
Listen, Zach Calzada, trash.
00:16:09
Mason
did you toledo went Did you have Toledo being in that close? I think they were tied at one point.
00:16:14
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
i bet them the I bet them to cover the spread. True ball knowers know that Toledo, who won the MAAC last year, is a good football team.
00:16:19
Mason
Oh.
00:16:22
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
But you're too busy on Saturdays drinking pumpkin spice lattes and not watching ball.
00:16:27
Zack
my gosh, this guy.
00:16:30
Mason
i was out I was literally in Alaska. you can't you can You can't give me that. i was li I couldn't listen to the podcast.
00:16:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
i'm just i'm talking about lot I'm talking about, well, Kentucky was, I think you were on the episode when he talked about Kentucky.
00:16:44
Zack
Listen, Zach Calzada is not very bad.
00:16:45
Mason
Yeah, probably.
00:16:46
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Zach Kauzada.
00:16:48
Zack
He's very bad at football.
00:16:48
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
There's a lot of A&M quarterbacks throughout college football for some reason.
00:16:52
Zack
A lot of them. Haynes King is one.
00:16:55
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He's not a good at quarterback either.
00:16:56
Zack
Georgia Tech. He's a good running back.
00:16:58
Mason
Well...
00:16:59
Zack
Yeah. It was 10-2. It was 10-2 and then crazy.
00:17:00
Mason
They even got a safety. it was... like ah It was... Let's see. It was seventeen to nine at one point, thinking that they could have actually won that game.
00:17:06
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:17:07
Zack
Crazy.
00:17:10
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
10-2, yeah.
00:17:10
Mason
Yeah.
00:17:11
Zack
crazy
00:17:12
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
The ah the Mac, I think, did well across the board. I saw Central Michigan beat somebody too that was above them as far as conferences go.
00:17:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
the mac Don't sleep on the Mac.
00:17:26
Mason
Well...
00:17:27
Zack
no
00:17:28
Mason
You know what?
00:17:28
Zack
Don't sleep on them.
00:17:29
Mason
Since you all were expecting that and that wasn't a surprise to you, I guess I don't have to worry about you all picking that as your the surprise of the week.
00:17:31
Zack
yeah
00:17:37
Zack
That is true.
00:17:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
mason her Mason heard the word punishment and pulled out Toledo.
00:17:39
Mason
And Tenz even got Tenz even made money off of that game.
00:17:40
Zack
Yeah, Mason's like, I'm not touching this punishment.
00:17:41
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Toledo.
00:17:44
Mason
so Or was it part of a parlay?
00:17:47
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
No, it was a single.
00:17:48
Mason
There you go.
00:17:50
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Trying to do less parlays, more singles.
00:17:52
Zack
All right, Tins.
00:17:53
Mason
Crowd.
00:17:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
All right.
00:17:54
Zack
Surprise the week.
00:17:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Surprise. My surprise of the week is the LSU Tigers actually winning a home opener.
00:18:02
Zack
Hmm.
00:18:02
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They had lost their last five um home home opener or sorry, season openers. Yeah. And just just surprising that a Brian Kelly-led team went to a hostile environment and did what they were supposed to do.
00:18:14
Zack
Hmm.
00:18:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
LSU is a national title contender, um but under Brian Kelly, even back to Notre Dame, it's His teams always seem to not come up to the occasion, not do what they're supposed to do.
00:18:29
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
So to me, i was very surprised that LSU actually pulled off the win, even though they were the underdogs. So it's not an upset. Yeah, that would be an upset.
00:18:40
Zack
It is an upset. Yeah.
00:18:41
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That the definition of an upset. Four-point underdogs. But that was my surprise of the week. I was very surprised LSU not only won, but the score made it seem like it was a lot closer than it was. like LSU dominated them pretty much the whole game.
00:19:00
Zack
Agree.
00:19:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
that They had that catch for touchdown taken away that would have, you know, that was bad.
00:19:00
Zack
And
00:19:04
Zack
that was garbage. Yeah. yeah
00:19:06
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That was...
00:19:06
Zack
And it would have been, yeah, it should have been a two touchdown win at least.
00:19:10
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:19:11
Zack
Um, my, but so I actually have have this written down this way, so I'm not counting it. Uh, my surprise the week was Clemson losing their opener at home.
00:19:23
Zack
Um, so it's not LSU based, but it's Clemson based.
00:19:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
right that's fair no point there
00:19:27
Zack
That is how I had it written. Um, This Clemson team that a lot of a lot of people had really hyped up, Katie Klobnik, was in those Heisman conversations. And not to say that they're not going to be a good team still. I really thought that home field advantage would be enough to push them over the edge.
00:19:42
Zack
um I mean, kudos to LSU for coming in and taking care of business. um I did not think it was going to happen. i thought that last year, Clemson got embarrassed in that first weekend of the year against Georgia.
00:19:48
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
yeah
00:19:53
Zack
I really thought that they were going to come out make a statement. I thought Katie Klobnik. I thought the same thing with Arch Manning. To be honest, we may bring them up in a second. I'm not sure our next category. I really thought that there was a chance both of those guys were going to awesome weekends and were going come out as the Heisman favorites.
00:20:09
Zack
Turns out um both of them took step backs this week. So my surprise of the week was that Dabo couldn't get the boys together. Clemson is just kind of struggling along.
00:20:20
Zack
um i heard a stat that in their last like four SEC games, um I forget the exact stat, but they really have like struggled on third down and they have basically just had no success.
00:20:30
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
yeah
00:20:32
Zack
Um, going back to South Carolina for last year and to Georgia last year, like they just have had very little success against their premier opponents. And so I thought this was going to be a page turner and turns out it was not.
00:20:46
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Seems like Dabo really needs to stop being set in his ways and go hit the transfer portal because it's just not I think it was a little bit but not not like what everybody else is doing.
00:20:52
Zack
I think he did even some, uh,
00:20:59
Zack
He still could go eleven and one and
00:21:01
Zack
When the ACC get a playoff spot, pretty easy. I mean, at like I said, these non-conference games in the first and the first slot of the year just don't mean a ton moving forward.
00:21:01
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Right.
00:21:05
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:21:11
Zack
I mean, they count, but they don't. it's not It's not everything. there's There's plenty of football left for everybody.
00:21:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah. Clemson got, yeah. Clemson got embarrassed last year, week one, and they're still, it they won the ACC and got a playoff spot.
00:21:21
Zack
That was bad. Yeah.
00:21:27
Zack
Okay, last category, last superlative for the day, ah Fraud of the Week. um There's a lot of people that are in contention here.
00:21:37
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Lots of frauds running around.
00:21:38
Zack
I am going to the very first game of the weekend, ah Boise State. Frauds of the Week, top 25 ranked players.
00:21:50
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
yeah
00:21:50
Zack
Ashton Gentile merchants Boise state come out. They score the first touchdown of the game, go up seven zero. And then they are, they have 34 points straight scored against them. Uh, they lose 34 to seven and their opener, uh, after being ranked, they have their season is struggling. I'll tell you who is on the come up. And this could have been a category for performance of the week.
00:22:16
Zack
Um, Alex Golish in the USF, uh,
00:22:20
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Head coach, yeah.
00:22:21
Zack
They're for real. I think those guys could be in the G5 position looking for playoff spot because that guy's going to get a get a powerful job soon.
00:22:22
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:22:29
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:22:32
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:22:32
Zack
um He was he was the guy famously led the 2022 team. He was offensive coordinator. That was the mastermind behind that team, ah Tennessee team. And so he's a very good coach. He is one of those guys who are now being looked at as potential to take a big job somewhere. So.
00:22:50
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:22:50
Zack
We only look out there, but Boise State embarrassed.
00:22:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah. I mean, that people were talking about Boise state was going to run, run that conference and be the, the bell of the ball.
00:22:59
Zack
Yep.
00:23:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
As far as the, the outside of the power of five conferences, getting a playoff team and, you know, not looking like it and UCF.
00:23:09
Zack
Didn't happen. Okay.
00:23:12
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I mean, that's another really hard game for Florida in a couple of weeks.
00:23:18
Zack
USF or UCF?
00:23:20
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
USF, sorry. you
00:23:21
Zack
Yeah, USF is the one to beat Boise State.
00:23:21
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
That's who they... Yeah. yeah
00:23:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:23:26
Zack
Yeah, and maybe lo if we don't we don't have a category for losers of the week, but honestly, if I were getting kind of for losers of the week, Florida Gators might be on there because all of a sudden ah Miami and Florida State are on their schedule later, and those are no longer looking like fun games of play along with your SEC schedule.
00:23:40
Mason
Mmm.
00:23:42
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:23:43
Zack
So their schedule, their strength of schedule just got harder.
00:23:45
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
A very tough SEC schedule.
00:23:50
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
True.
00:23:50
Zack
Okay. Tens?
00:23:53
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
All right. My fraud of the week is Nico blah, blah, blah, whatever his name is.
00:23:59
Zack
You love to see it.
00:24:00
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um Not only... Are you just a complete fraud? you You try to throw Hypel's system under the bus saying that's why you struggled. and No, it's just because you're bad at football.
00:24:14
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um You leave in a dramatic way. All this drama, all summer long.
00:24:18
Zack
yeah
00:24:20
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
ah You go to UCLA.
00:24:20
Zack
They are.
00:24:23
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
make less money than you were going to make at UT because you are dumb and your dad is dumb. And then you look absolutely terrible. And I know you utah is a good team.
00:24:35
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Utah is consistently a good defense.
00:24:36
Zack
they are
00:24:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
But... You were like a seven-point underdog at home. You were missing receivers left and right. you He looked terrible. He is a fraud. That whole class of five-star quarterbacks just might be bad, some are saying.
00:24:54
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I saw the meme.
00:24:55
Zack
Some people are saying it.
00:24:55
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
It was like Nico, Arch, Deontay Thomas, who I don't He plays for Oregon, maybe.
00:25:01
Zack
Dante Moore. think it's Dante Moore.
00:25:02
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Dante Moore. Yeah, Dante Moore.
00:25:03
Zack
Yeah.
00:25:04
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yes, yes, Dante Moore.
00:25:05
Zack
He is starting for Oregon. Oregon does look good.
00:25:07
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He was, but just what a fraud.
00:25:08
Zack
They look pretty good.
00:25:12
Zack
Yeah. Tough.
00:25:14
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
You hate to see it.
00:25:15
Mason
We enjoyed it.
00:25:16
Zack
Full agree. The hate watch was awesome. ah I watched the highlights the next morning. It was great to see.
00:25:22
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:25:24
Zack
uh, interceptions being thrown. Um, the stadium was like literally 25% full. Um, you know, couldn't happen to a, a better guy, more morally upstanding guy.
00:25:30
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:25:37
Zack
Um, the, the, the better part of that story is, I mean, he screwed Tennessee over in a pretty big way, but he also kind of screwed, uh, Joey Aguilar over. I mean, he, he came in at the very last minute, took his starting job,
00:25:47
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah. He
00:25:50
Zack
ah Joey got the great got the biggest come-up in history. He took a job at UCLA, and all of a sudden, he's now the starting in quarterback at the University of Tennessee, making a lot of money ah for a good team.
00:26:04
Zack
who i mean this They look pretty good.
00:26:08
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
did it.
00:26:08
Zack
um So, fun stuff there. Shout-out to Joey Aguilar. We didn't mention him in our superlatives, but he had a great game as well.
00:26:16
Mason
I was seeing some like like Twitter accounts. basically and They were like, i didn't see Nico make throws like that. it wasn't One of them was like that deep ball. and I don't know if it's just the hate or if that's a legitimate thing.
00:26:28
Zack
It was honestly pretty stark watching it. It was like, oh. And I think all Tennessee fans had the same reaction of, this is the first time our offense has looked pretty competent since 2022, which is like a scary thing to think about because the offense was pretty unique and the Blutnikoff winner was on that roster.
00:26:39
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:26:45
Zack
And you know that was a pretty unique roster that year. But it did have some shades of the former offense that we all have come to miss under the last couple of years.
00:26:56
Zack
So exciting stuff.
00:27:00
Zack
Okay, Mason, are you going to go with the golden goose here?
00:27:02
Mason
All right.
00:27:06
Mason
i have something I feel like everybody's going to either probably put their heads in their hands about.
00:27:09
Zack
Uh-oh.
00:27:12
Mason
Who knows?
00:27:13
Zack
Okay.
00:27:13
Mason
and I'm not sure. Maybe they'll like it. I'm going my my fraud of the week, even with a win is Michigan. Let me explain. ah Hold on. Let me explain.
00:27:28
Mason
Let me explain. So Bryce Underwood gets the first start of... the of his career. They play the New Mexico Lobos, which was interested on their defense.
00:27:37
Zack
Yeah.
00:27:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, true freshman.
00:27:41
Mason
Their defense last season was ranked 134 FBS teams. At point during the game, they were only winning one-score game.
00:27:49
Mason
out of thirty ah ah hundred and thirty four fbs teams
00:27:54
Zack
OK.
00:27:54
Mason
at one point during the game they were only winning by seventeen to by a one score game
00:28:02
Mason
They also only play two ranked teams, Oklahoma next week, and then the last game of the season, which is Ohio State. I'm not a believer. i so i think that they're frauds. They didn really didn't. I just i don't believe in them.
00:28:16
Mason
I think they're frauds.
00:28:17
Zack
All
00:28:17
Mason
We'll see what happens.
00:28:21
Zack
right.
00:28:21
Mason
All right.
00:28:25
Zack
ah Mason really took this. um He really does not want to get this punishment. there in the season He's like, guys, I can't do this punishment.
00:28:30
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He saw the word punishment and ran for the hills.
00:28:36
Zack
um That's great. i mean, they always got the win. I think that's positive. Their offense was horrible last year. Their pass game was like non-existent. So, uh,
00:28:44
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, they couldn't throw out four guys last year.
00:28:46
Zack
they they had a lot They have a lot to come back from.
00:28:48
Mason
We'll see what happens against Oklahoma next week.
00:28:52
Zack
um Well,
00:28:53
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Oklahoma, famously good defense under Brent Venables. He's getting fired before ah Billy Napier.
00:28:59
Zack
I feel like they are good defenses. feel like we well, now I feel like we buried the lead and we didn't talk about the biggest game of the week at all.
00:29:04
Mason
He's getting fired.
00:29:08
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
you
00:29:09
Zack
um
00:29:10
Mason
if Sorry, guys.
00:29:12
Zack
So I think we all kind of danced around because we were afraid. um How do we feel? Let's just really quickly wrap up with this topic. Texas, Arch, Ohio State.
00:29:23
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:29:25
Zack
um Is he if maybe he's not a fraud. Maybe he's not fraud of the week. Maybe he just was playing a great defense. Some people are saying, and
00:29:31
Mason
We are.
00:29:32
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Ohio State does have a very good defense and I think Matt Patricia being hired as the defensive coordinator is like a move that people want to laugh at and make a meme because he was so bad as a Lions head coach he is an excellent defensive coordinator at the college and NFL level like he's he's been very successful at both um and I don't know I don't think Sark called the best game he it's like he didn't really trust Arch to do much they weren't doing things you kind of saw them do last year
00:29:46
Zack
Yeah.
00:29:59
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um
00:30:00
Zack
i mean, it came down to the fact that they had two possessions and within the five yard line and came away with zero points.
00:30:05
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
and No points, yeah.
00:30:07
Zack
I mean, that's the game right there.
00:30:07
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
So,
00:30:08
Zack
They score in those two possessions and all of a sudden they win. i mean, that's it's
00:30:11
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
yeah, I think on a neutral field, I think Texas would be favored today, even if they played it. Like, if they played again this week, I think Texas would probably be favored on a neutral field.
00:30:22
Zack
I think it's a very competitive matchup. I think the fact that, I think you're right. A couple breaks definitely win Ohio State's way.
00:30:28
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:30:29
Zack
um mean, Ohio, Julian saying though, not bad. um
00:30:33
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:30:34
Zack
Kind of, kind of some shades of some of those. I mean, that's the same thing. Ohio State and Georgia have both done this mess where, they just plug in a guy who's like pretty good a quarterback.
00:30:44
Zack
And then the rest of the team is so good that it doesn't matter.
00:30:46
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
place point guard. Yeah.
00:30:47
Zack
Yeah. ah Georgia has done that a lot. him And Ohio state's done the last couple of years too, where they just had guys who were like, sure, he's not going to make a lot of mistakes at least.
00:30:50
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:30:57
Zack
And then they win games with him.
00:30:57
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Right.
00:30:59
Zack
So I don't know.
00:31:03
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
it was ah It was an entertaining game. i mean, low scoring. It wasn't what people probably were going into the weekend expecting.
00:31:08
Zack
It's very, yeah.
00:31:10
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
like They probably thought was more of a shootout, but both those teams are very loaded on defense. um And it wouldn't surprise me if we see them play each other again in the playoff.
00:31:19
Zack
Definitely.
00:31:20
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
think they're both going right there.
00:31:20
Zack
Yeah, I think both were playing pretty conservatively. I think they both were pulling, not pulling punches, but just kind of, they were they weren't wanting to make the first mistake. So they were kind just willing to play really safe football and just kind of see how it landed.
00:31:35
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:31:37
Zack
And one 40 yard touchdown pass ended up being the difference later.
00:31:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Because they know this isn't their whole season.
00:31:42
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:31:42
Zack
But Arch did have a chance to run a two minute drill at the end and potentially get his team ah to tie the game and it did not happen. So
00:31:53
Zack
that's a tall task maybe for a guy who's only played a couple of games, but who knows?
00:31:58
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Right.
00:32:03
Mason
We had that as a potential fraud in Alabama, and neither of those got brought up.
00:32:11
Zack
Bama fraud.
00:32:13
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, i mean I mean, if you listen to this pod, you know that me and Zach are super down on Alabama going into the season.
00:32:13
Zack
ah
00:32:16
Zack
Yeah, definitely.
00:32:22
Zack
fact.
00:32:24
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
We took their win total under.
00:32:24
Zack
Go back and listen to. Yep.
00:32:28
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Ty Simpson is not the guy.
00:32:28
Zack
What did I? Yeah. Yeah.
00:32:31
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
He's been there for five years and he's never once been in contention to be the starting quarterback. Like that should tell you all you need to know, but this just Caitlin DeBoer. He's, he's been a good coach everywhere. He's been,
00:32:45
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
But he just doesn't fit. He's just not the right kind of coach for Bama, and that's okay. like He can go back to what to the – well, the Pac-12 gone, so that's not an option.
00:32:56
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um But he's a good – probably.
00:32:57
Zack
Washington would probably take him back.
00:33:02
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I don't know. They've got a good coach, the guy they got from Arizona. I can't think of his name.
00:33:07
Zack
um I think the reaction has been pretty funny because we live in a world where um the people have access to replays and stuff so fast that it's pretty easy to go back.
00:33:09
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Fiske.
00:33:19
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:33:21
Zack
And and if you watch some of the replays, I'm not not sure if you guys have seen them of The Bama guys like jogging, being behind on play. There's a couple of plays are really bad.
00:33:30
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah. It's like saving a pool to scholarship instantly.
00:33:32
Zack
um That's the stuff. That's the stuff that will get you fired um or get you in real big trouble like this.
00:33:36
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:33:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:33:40
Zack
The stuff that Bama has just come to not put up with. um And while Saban's not there, all the boosters are still there. All of the ah fans are still there and they've come to expect a certain way of playing football. And it seems like,
00:33:56
Zack
It just feels like DeBoer has a certain level of athlete that he is just not managing very well right now. um He has a very talented team that should be good, and is just it's just not working out.
00:34:07
Zack
It kind of feels like the Texas A&M type years where it's just like you got all the guys, um but it's just not.
00:34:10
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
the
00:34:14
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I can't do anything with him.
00:34:15
Zack
The pieces aren't working. Yeah.
00:34:17
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:34:17
Zack
So – um I don't know. We'll see how the rest... like They could very easily go tended to still make a playoff, and make a push at the end. like I think they've got the talent. They could also go eight and four seven and five and the hot seat for DeBoer would get hot very fast in Alabama, I think.
00:34:35
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I don't see him surviving a seven.
00:34:37
Zack
Their schedule actually pretty soft.
00:34:37
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
know.
00:34:38
Mason
well
00:34:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:34:38
Zack
If they if they went 7-5, there would be a tragedy with their schedule.
00:34:39
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
i know yeah
00:34:42
Mason
Well, there's October 18th, it's Tennessee and Alabama, and then Alabama-South Carolina, which they look good in their game.
00:34:43
Zack
They'd be losing to a bad team.
00:34:44
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
yeah
00:34:51
Mason
LSU-Alabama, Oklahoma-Alabama.
00:34:54
Zack
Well, there you go.
00:34:54
Mason
So, there all in a row.
00:34:55
Zack
Nice four losses. Feels great.
00:34:59
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I like that. That'd be a good game for sellers.
00:35:01
Zack
It's great.
00:35:04
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
If you were listening over the summer and jumped on Heisman plus 2,000 with your boy, he's now at plus 800. Yeah.
00:35:11
Mason
There you go.
00:35:12
Zack
Wow. Pretty good.
00:35:15
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Pretty good. It seems like we know ball.
00:35:17
Zack
I don't know about you guys. I feel like a lot of our predictions are coming true.
00:35:20
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
after There's a lot of good stuff happening for our for our college predictions so far.
00:35:21
Zack
though
00:35:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Week one.
00:35:26
Zack
I took Notre Dame to miss the playoffs.
00:35:26
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
0-1.
00:35:29
Zack
Owen won.
00:35:32
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
If the season ended today, they're not in.
00:35:35
Zack
but i mean, come on. Carson Beck won his first game with Miami.
00:35:41
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Carson Peck.
00:35:42
Zack
Some people are saying. Okay.
00:35:48
Zack
Do you guys have anything else college-related here?
00:35:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
No.
00:35:54
Zack
I had one more thing I was going to leave with, and then we can be done.
00:35:56
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Okay.
00:35:58
Zack
Um, this is about, so this is a little bit of a press release, but I thought it was a fun question ask.
00:36:08
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
All
00:36:09
Zack
Um, so this, so this movie is coming out, uh, the long walk. Are you familiar?
00:36:16
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yes.
00:36:16
Zack
Um, so it's actually a book. Basically the long walk is these people are forced to walk and they have to hit a certain miles per hour. And if they fall below it, they get murdered. So there's this experience happening at a movie theater where, um, there's like treadmills for all the people that are watching it. And if you fall below three miles per hour, you get killed.
00:36:40
Zack
Nope. You are escorted to the theater. And so my question is to, to both of you, um, three miles per hour is a 20 minute mile pace. So it's not fast, but it's also not slow.
00:36:52
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Right.
00:36:53
Zack
It's like, it's not crawling. You gotta be moving with some purpose.
00:36:57
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:36:57
Zack
Um, How many miles are you walking? If your life is on the line, if someone like has a has a gun to your head, how many miles are you making it before you just fall over?
00:37:13
Mason
So you said 20 minute miles because I'm OK.
00:37:16
Zack
20 minute mile pace, three miles per hour. It's like a six on a treadmill, 6.0. sorry. 3.0 on treadmill.
00:37:25
Zack
now sorry three point zero on a treadmill
00:37:28
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:37:29
Zack
That's dumb. Yeah. 3.0 on the channel.
00:37:33
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
um I'm making it pretty far.
00:37:35
Mason
So if you do 10 miles, that's three hours.
00:37:36
Zack
Yeah.
00:37:39
Zack
Yeah.
00:37:39
Mason
And like. 18 minutes.
00:37:43
Zack
Yeah.
00:37:45
Mason
Let's.
00:37:46
Zack
That can't be right.
00:37:47
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Do a lot of walking, a lot of running around for my job. So I'm,
00:37:51
Zack
I think my number, I think my number is, I don't know how you got 18 minutes if you're walking 20 minute miles.
00:37:53
Mason
Did I do that wrong?
00:37:57
Zack
So, I sorry just heard you say 18 minutes. I was like, that's not right.
00:38:02
Mason
didn't carry the one.
00:38:02
Zack
Um,
00:38:06
Zack
I think I could, I'm going to say if I had to put a number on it for me, I think it would be like 40 miles.
00:38:17
Mason
Well, you did a marathon or half marathon. Did...
00:38:20
Zack
I did. now maybe more than that. You're right. Um,
00:38:25
Zack
But i was I have not run since then, so it's pretty bad. um Maybe... Okay.
00:38:36
Zack
Let's go 60. think that's better. 60 miles.
00:38:41
Zack
And that's like... I mean, you're going until you fall over, basically. Until your legs stop working.
00:38:50
Zack
I don't know. if you I mean, if you're literally your life on the line...
00:38:56
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
I'm going 80.
00:38:58
Mason
So I did 60 times 20 minutes.
00:39:03
Zack
Yeah.
00:39:03
Mason
That's 20 hours of walking.
00:39:05
Zack
Correct.
00:39:09
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
They let him like stop at night to go to sleep.
00:39:12
Zack
Do they?
00:39:13
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:39:13
Zack
In the movie?
00:39:13
Mason
Now that's a game changer.
00:39:14
Zack
No.
00:39:14
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Behind the movie. Yeah.
00:39:15
Zack
That is something. um I could do 60. I could walk for 20 hours straight my life wasn't lie.
00:39:27
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah, you get to sleep.
00:39:28
Mason
I'm just trying to think of like what starts hurting like the legs. Because you're like your cardiovascular is probably fine. It's only walking fast paced.
00:39:37
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
What starts hurting?
00:39:38
Zack
Your legs would definitely be hurting.
00:39:38
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Your legs?
00:39:39
Mason
All
00:39:42
Mason
right. I think I can match Zach on that probably. 80.
00:39:45
Zack
Mason, let's be honest.
00:39:50
Mason
eighty
00:39:54
Mason
I would say like a day and a half. okay How many hours of sleep do I get? That's also important.
00:39:58
Zack
You You famously just jogged through an entire and NBA game in college one time on treadmill.
00:39:59
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
Yeah,
00:40:06
Zack
That's not normal behavior.
00:40:07
Mason
Oh, yeah. for Okay. That's been a while as well. Okay, I'll say like a day and a half, two days.
00:40:12
Next Guy Up Podcast Network
yeah let's act like you don't have a six pack a resting six-pack just sitting here.
00:40:13
Mason
so
00:40:18
Mason
I'll say two days. i don't know the miles on that, but I'd say I could probably get through two days. so
00:40:24
Zack
okay
00:40:24
Mason
As long as I get eight hours of sleep, I'll be fine.
00:40:27
Zack
Need to sleep.
00:40:28
Mason
and Can I need 10? Actually, i'm requesting 10.
00:40:31
Zack
Can I podcast while I'm walking?
00:40:31
Mason
I'm just kidding.
00:40:33
Zack
That changes the game.
00:40:36
Mason
Can I get like a TV in front of me with all the football games? That also.
00:40:39
Zack
so Okay.
00:40:44
Mason
All right. Good work, everybody.
00:40:45
Zack
I feel good about that.
00:40:46
Mason
