00:00So, why don't we start with the game you went to?
00:05You went to Columbus to the shoe to see Ohio State spank Tennessee.
00:09Yeah.
00:10And there was 30% of that crowd, 25 to 30% from Tennessee made the long drive, wore their
00:16orange and got knocked out in the first quarter.
00:19I mean, that was a picture perfect game.
00:23First quarter by Will Howard, getting the ball down the field to Jeremiah Smith.
00:28They ran the ball effectively with both running backs.
00:30They looked re-energized.
00:31They looked pressure free.
00:33And Scott, here's the thing.
00:35I think this is the key for them in the Oregon game.
00:37They have to let Will Howard throw the ball down the field and live with the mistakes.
00:42He was four of five for 125 yards, two touchdowns against Tennessee on passes of 20 yards or
00:48more.
00:49But he also threw one interception.
00:50I can live with a mistake or two, as long as it's not a game changer, if I get the benefits
00:56of throwing the balls to those receivers.
00:59That was the most complete game they played.
01:01I thought it was better than the Indiana game that they beat the Hoosiers in Columbus.
01:06They played terrible against Michigan, but this was their best game, don't you think?
01:11Absolutely.
01:12It looked a lot when I went and saw them play Iowa, honestly.
01:14It was kind of tight at halftime.
01:17You thought maybe if Tennessee scores coming out of the third quarter that we'd get a close
01:21game.
01:22We talked about Dylan Sampson, Niko Iemaliava struggled a little bit to throw the ball down
01:27the field.
01:28Ohio State's defense looked re-energized.
01:30I don't know if they can beat Oregon.
01:33I wouldn't be surprised if they do, though, because they know they can play four quarters
01:38with these guys.
01:39It's going to be a super fun rematch in the Rose Bowl between two Big Ten teams.
01:43Yeah.
01:44I still like Oregon.
01:45I think they're unstoppable offensively.
01:48They score on anybody.
01:49I don't care who they're playing, they're going to score.
01:52We'll see if Ohio State can go belly to belly with them.
01:55They ran out of time.
01:56They screwed up the first game.
01:58I still like Oregon in the rematch.
02:00Yeah.
02:01And the key will be the lines.
02:04Oregon was able to throw the ball down the field against Ohio State in that first matchup.
02:07And hey, I hate to keep harping on that, but that's how you beat them.
02:11Show you can get the ball down the field to those receivers that opens up the running game.
02:15Both their offense and defensive lines are good.
02:18And Dylan Gabriel played well.
02:21It's going to be a fun matchup.
02:22I think it'll be another shootout.
02:24Probably hits the over.
02:25That over looks a little low for me early.
02:27But the fact that Oregon is an underdog to start, like you said in the last segment,
02:32Dan Lanning's absolutely going to harp on that up until January 1st.
