Listen to lots to say, with Bobby Bones and Matt Castle on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox Sports Radio. Final hour in this Tuesday, best and worst of the weekend, what you saw that you liked, you didn't like Chris Fowler from the mother ship.

3:04Well, join us coming up. He is doing double duty with college football, and also US Open. He'll join us momentarily. New poll question for the final hour of the program, Dylan. Yeah, Dan. Well, if you were playing in the Australia game, would you rather get there a week early, all off 49ers, or get there at the last minute and power through like the Rams plan? Okay. I think I would probably rather get there a week, or I'd rather get accustomed to it. I think, I mean, I haven't been to Australia, so I don't know, but that seems like more of a gamble getting there at the last minute. Are you asking this question, or is there data to back up one side of this? You know, I mean, I'm not a data driven guy per se. I'm asking the question. What would you rather, what would the people rather do if they're in that situation? Well, if I'm going sightseeing, that's different. I'm going there to play football. So they're going to try to keep on the West Coast time zone.

4:04And I think power through it and then get out of town. But it made two different approaches here, but, you know, I would probably having somebody that I know who travels all over the world. He says that he always powers through that first day. That's that's the one where get through it. And then, you know, you're okay. But when you take that first nap, when you go over there, you're cooked. It hits hard though. Yes, it does. All right, 877 3DP show email address dpadampatric.com Twitter handle at D.P show. Stad of the day is always brought to you by Panini America, the official trading cards of the Dan Patrick show September 12th. The Premier League goes to North London. These spurs get ready to jump start their season at home against Everton. And that'll be September 12 on NBC and peacock. Chris Fowler, the mother ship. He, of course, college football and he's calling the action. U.S. Open is next game will be Ohio state and Texas on ABC Saturday night with herbie and Holly Row and Laura Rutledge.

5:16Chris joining us now. How are you feeling? I'm trying to look fresh and not tired for your people. I had the cold mask on you that you put in the fridge. You put it on your face and maybe the circus on the rise go down a little bit. That's the goal. I don't know if I succeed it, but it's good to see you. You look fresh. You look. Yeah. You traveled to Australia. So what would be your travel recommendation for the Rams or Niners to go there and play a football game? Go there as early as possible because it's a really nice place to be. I don't know the body clock stuff. Some people go into the last minute. They have two different philosophies, right? I mean, my recommendation is get a life flat seat or don't even consider it. But I think they got that covered. Doing double duty with college football and tennis and a different approach. I'm guessing or a different feel to calling tennis and then calling college football.

6:18I have a strange combination of two favorite sports. Right? Because they're completely different to call. Very different in every way. I got to say the tennis having two people on the court. Generally, I'm pretty familiar with them versus a roster of 100 guys on each college football team with a lot of turnover, especially in this moderate era. It's a lot more challenging. There's a lot more moving pieces to a broadcast. We had a lot of moving pieces in Baton Rouge of the opening game. Not quite as bad as a power outage of Florida. Say what they had no monitors in the booth. It's going to be a two hour lightning delay down there and lots of juggle. But you know, I love them both equally. Don't try to do what Herb Street did or Johnny Mac and give me the take a favorite because I really do love a lot more than just like in the past. I think it's going to be a lot of different. I think it's going to be a lot more fun. The challenge is significant, but it's different with both. And today I get to call Alka res Ben Shelton and prime Simon Arthur. I said him. It's a monster match. It's great fun and I'm keeping one eye on sexist and Ohio State during the day. You read those notes and watch the tape.

7:19Where's the love of tennis come from? I got hooked on tennis in the early 70s when Jimmy Connors came along. I played tennis as a kid a lot. I was ridiculous. T 2000 Wilson Rackets with the steel circle head. Sure. And the barbed wire around the frame. They know what you had a ball with except Jimmy Connors. And then Christopher came along and she she was pretty interesting as a young kid to watch her play and it gets to work with Chrissy now. So that early 70s, dammit, Borg and Connors. And then later Mac and Rowe. I mean, I got I came in as some of the early glory days, especially for American tennis. And so I just I call tennis as 0 3 people think I kind of dip over there. I've actually called tennis longer than I've called football games. Yeah. And I wonder about this era and quite an era though when you think about you know, Federer and the doll. And we're moving past and then we always worry, what's that next one? You know, Joe Cavitch. So are we in good hands moving forward where you go?

8:25Will have something that will be similar to what we just experienced. Man, it's hard to top that you throw serenian on the women's side and before her being a serious. It really was an incredible era. I got to see the entire start to finish from Federer's first Wimbledon and 0 3 to his his last match and now no backs during the end. Very good hands as long as sinner and Alcharez can stay healthy at the same time. That's been the problem. I mean, Carlos miss the last two majors. Yannick's not here with the knee problem. When they're together, they arrive at its hermit and you got these two incredible talents, future all time greats on opposite sides of the draw on a collision course. Now without sinner here, the good park for American fans is this was viewed as the best opportunity for an American guy to break through an end that 23 year drought. And I think they're so well positioned now Shelton has Alcharez tonight the ultimate test Francis Tiafo was on a tear against Alex Mikkelson, a young Southern California 22 year old American.

9:25Not many people know as much about his game, but he hasn't dropped a set yet. They're playing this afternoon. One of those guys is going to go to the semis and then it's Sheldon, Alcharez for the other spot and that half of the draw. So it's been a really good tournament for American men and women. But can you get somebody to the finish line because I don't think US fans like bronze or silver medals that much when it comes to these grand slam results. How would you explain Alcharez to somebody who didn't see him. A special one built different physically built different mentally here right to the US open broke through became number one and and when he went it three years ago, he defroamed joke of his ship Wimbledon, you know, Beck had lost in 10 years of center court. He did that. He is and now he's coming back from four and a half months off. You're not supposed to be able to do that and bring the level of play. He's shown through four matches. It's he needs to have an off day for anybody in the world to beat him except center when he's healthy. And you know, not being here means Carlos has to be a little off tonight. He is dynamic. He's athletic. He's got a huge game. He's got tremendous finesse and speed around the court. He's got everything you want to see from a player and he's mentally tough.

10:38So he's he's got the cajonis to pull out drop shots and massive moments and matches. He can win three or four different ways and he is the ultimate test right now. Chris was on the call with Clemson and LSU from Bat Rouge and he will have Ohio State at Texas that'll be coming up Saturday night. When did you know that LSU was a whole lot better than Clemson? Unfortunately, pretty early in that game. You go into it with expectations. I really thought that Clemson had addressed some other weaknesses. I thought they're going to be a much better team this year. The double swing. He went to the portal. Got a bunch of new guys on defense. The question was an inexperienced quarterback and the offensive line. Could they block well enough to run the ball? The answer was resounding. No. They were soundly pummeled. It said overreaction in states after week one in college or the NFL as you know, but I don't think it's overreacting to say that LSU is stacked. There is serious title contender.

11:41I think they're going to have bigger tests. A lot bigger tests and maybe Sam Levit running around and freelancing doing what he did so well to Clemson ripped their defense apart. Maybe tougher when they get into the SEC schedule. Frankly, and he's got to stay healthy because he runs around and plays a little reckless at times. He played an amazing game. But you just wonder is that sustainable over what they hope is going to be 15 16 games, but they're really good and their defense is is lights out there and they spend a fortune on the roster. As you know, they they have some homegrown guys. They have some high price free agents on the defenses out of the ball and and it looks it. As many college football games as you've called have you ever been a part of or even seen anything like we saw at the end of the Michigan game with the clock that somehow said zero. The official said over, but they put a second back up. Well, they found a discrepancy in the clock. So that's what we're finding out is that even the instant replay system is is not infallible machines.

12:44News flash can sometimes be off and I guess now it's like swimming. You got to find two clocks that sink to a hundredth of a second because that's kind of what it was. It's just a couple hundreds of a second. They didn't sync up. What a heartbreaker for Western Michigan. It not just the clock thing, but if you just let the ball hit the ground game over if you if you if you if you're if you're in the end, so when you knock it down game over, but he stood out of bounds touched it and that's what led to the whole controversy. But you know in the wake of that. There's some serious questions about Michigan. I mean Bryce Underwood who's one of the most scrutinized players in the sport. When you pay a high school recruit, the money that Michigan did and then brag about how much they pay anybody out last year in a season of term well and and struggles. Now you get Kyle winning him different offensive system under which still 19 years old man, but he's going to feel heavy criticism because he's getting millions of bucks right. And that was a very, very sobering opening game for that.

13:46And they got Oklahoma coming in by the way. Yeah. And underward struggle against that defense year ago, which is understandable. It was in Norman. He was young. Now he's a year older. Michigan has to get things fixed in a hurry because I think the expectations are pretty high in the fan base demands it. And I don't want to reach eyes into to be drinking heavily on a Saturday night after a win. Yes. He had a big glass of wine on his hand, our buddy. I don't want to see another big glass of wine if they get thumps from Oklahoma. Were you aware that the clock in the stadium and the clock with the officials or the replay center don't sync up? No, I had never been I'd never heard that before. Maybe again, it's shaped up except for a couple of hundreds, right? And that just kind of came into play. I know in this world we live in the impression is that, OK, the man stepped in and the big 10 wasn't going to let Michigan lose another Appalachian state type game in the big house.

14:46And so they're going to do it. They can listen. They still have to make a play at the end and Western so could have defended it a lot better. But yeah, I did learn something. I was going on like we were getting ready for our game and we're going, wait, what happened? And we couldn't figure it out and then it started to get out and get the phones low and it was permission to get it got screwed. I mean, that was a widespread opinion and some still believe it. I think they handled it with unbelievable class. Yeah, I agree. I agree. Yeah, I agree. I just didn't know that in today's technology. You can't sink that in your calling games. I mean, now you're going to be, I'm going to guess when you do Ohio State in Texas, you're going to go, hey, is the stadium clock and the replay clock and they sinked up. Yeah, but I didn't think it was going to come down to like Michael Phelps racing some dude to the wall who's going to touch first. It really was hundreds of a second. I mean, they're synced basically, but I guess come to find out you can't sink them to the hundred of a second.

15:46So let's hope that doesn't happen again this season. What do you expect out of Ohio State and Texas? I mean, Texas a very energized motivated team. I think that Archmaning will play much better. I think Texas has surrounded him with a lot of talent. I think they're better equipped. Ohio State has had to reload. It's a weird to look at the roster. There's so many new faces except for Julian San is back. I could Jeremiah Smith is back. I think I think slight edge Texas at home. That's how the odds makers see it. But I think it's very close to a 50-50 game when surprise me if Ohio State went in there in one. You know, we got to regulate our thinking here in the 12th team here. This is not a got to win must win or else it. That's the flip side having an expanded playoff is these games will never be do or die in September. But I hope it's really really entertaining and it's the SEC versus big 10 as you know. The big debate in the sport. The SEC flexing a little bit. They didn't lose a game in week one.

16:46But again, competition wasn't great. And conferences are basically judged by what their top teams do against each other. Mostly in the playoff, but this is like a this could be a championship game. It could be a semi-final game in a playoff and it's just happening in early September. Where do you stand with expansion with the playoffs? I actually like the 12th if you're going to expand let's not go beyond 16 in my view. I mean, you've got to really restructure a lot of things in the sport. You got to keep the players in mind. You know, like, why are the players always the pawns and anything that are those needs are never considered? You can't just layer games continually on top of each other. Because you know, this games at the end of the season are super intense, punishing mentally and physically. And in my view, a 2014 doesn't make sense. And I think it really would dilute some things. Yeah, you have 100 games in November with playoff implications. But you have a lot of teams in the bracket that basically have almost no chance of winning.

17:46So that I don't like to see. Yeah, you know, for years, I kept saying let's go from two to four. I'd be fine in my lifetime if we just had four. I was okay with that. And then all of a sudden, I think, I don't know, the powers that big go, wait a minute, how much money is available here? Let's just, let's go to 12th. And I went, wow, for all those years, coaches told me, all we don't want it. We don't need it, you know, and I'd be like, okay. And then now we get to 12th. And now we want to go right to 24. I just... That for me is too fast. I agree. That's, that's me as a jump. And money can't be the reason. I know that sounds naive, but I think going from four to 12th was good because teams five, six, seven. And you've seen that in the 12th team bracket are very capable of winning, especially with the new reality of the talent spread around more than I own portal. So you've got to allow for that. Many would say 12 isn't enough because you could look at, wait, did you have Indiana winning before the season started last year? I mean, all things are possible now.

18:49With, with the Hoosiers doing 16 and all, all things are possible. And I think we have to allow for it. I just don't think 24 makes sense. If they're going to expand, go to 16, eliminate the buys. At least the teams are not playing all of them, not playing extra games. Safe travels. Great to see you again. Thank you, bud. I didn't enjoy the man. That's Chris Fowler, the ESPN College football tennis host for the mother ship and ABC. So Saturday night, it will be Texas and Ohio State. We'll take a break here.

I survived and I've spent my life exploring how other people survive what should have destroyed them. I'm Elizabeth Smart and these are the survivor files. You just remember this low taunting voice next to my ear saying shut up. Don't say anything. Every week I'm with survivors who live through the unthinkable. I knew if he woke up without a doubt he was going to hurt me. I started feeling that there was someone at the end of my bed and I just started screaming. They are abducted, stalked, controlled and nearly silenced.

20:50But these aren't stories about what's taken from them. Their stories about what it takes to make it out alive. Listen to the survivor files with Elizabeth Smart on the iHeartRadio app Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

I don't know, I think you guys heard of foe journaling. Yeah, it's reading. It's called reading. So you're so we don't like to use that word anymore. Okay, a panel of New Yorker cartoonists. Have you guys done Terry Gross's Peloton class? No! I've been dying too! I'm so sorry, I'm seeing a reading of Sadako in the Thousand Paper Cranes by Audrement Donalds at the Wonderland Bookstore. That's crazy, I went to the Wonderland Bookstore yesterday and I heard Nora Jones do a reading of Zero Dark Thirty.

21:53No way! Patrick of the last bookstore though, Kim Katrol is reading the guitar tabs of yesterday! A panel of Eurovision participants. And we do a little Halloween sometimes. Does the Pope dress up? He winks on Halloween. It's right up next to the microphone. I hear you get the almost here, the eyelashes hate each other.

On the new podcast, Solita, we share the messy reality of traveling alone as a woman. I can wait 4 hours for the next bus or this random dude is offering me a ride on his motorcycle. I choose option B. I'm Julie Benieto and I travel by myself because it's a rare space where I can say yes without asking anyone else first. I'm on a mission to reclaim the word Solita, trading the pity for possibility.

23:53Every time I try to be alone, I kept meeting people and they were like, you smiled at us, not a lot of people smile around here. It's when you're alone that you're most receptive to the world as it is and not the lies you're sold about it. It can be a time where you push your limits, change your mind, or wake up to a new version of yourself. So whether you're a solo travel veteran or you're too nervous to book your first trip, I hope you listen to Solita on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Our town is small taters by most standards, right? But to the people who grew up here, it's everything. What happens when a quiet Tennessee town becomes the front line in a battle over the future of America? Developers with right wing ties have purchased hundreds of acres of land in the area. The first thing you see when it pops up is high nears and apple etch. But they weren't just planning houses. We need cities on a shining hill that exemplify and embody the Christian way of life.

24:55Stop right there. Is that normal? A podcast about what happens when a small town becomes the site of a social experiment. God need men to rule! Great! And decides to fight back. Do not use my hard work to sell your bulls! They're not just opposing what's being planned for here. Our hometown is not a test tube. They feel like they're standing in opposition to an entire administration. I guess you didn't move in on a bunch of dumb hillbillies now, did you? Listen to our town on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Get a couple of phone calls in here. 8773DP show. Walked in today. All of a sudden I saw Marvin limping. And I went, oh my god, what happened to you? And it looks like you have an ankle monitor on. Now you said it's a sprained ankle, but it certainly looks like it could be an ankle monitor.

25:55I promise that it is probably not an ankle monitor. It's an ankle brace, but it does have an ankle monitor look. It does. I just need to know these things. You were limping and I thought, okay, how did you get hurt? And then we find out that you said you were playing basketball? I was. And people, you know this firsthand. The most intense basketball ever is pick up basketball game point. Yeah, there's nothing more intense. And I tipped the ball when the guy was passing it. And I stepped on another gentleman's foot and not good. But your day to day. I am. Okay. Now if I hated this job, I would have called out. Oh, you would have if you were still at the mothership, would you have called out? Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah. You called out two or three days. The Army football game. Yes. I was working on Army football game Saturday. This happened yesterday.

26:55Oh, okay. All right. No, I like you here. Okay. Well, we like you here. And I'm glad it's not an ankle monitor because we'd have a hard time finding maybe your mug shot. From the last time you got arrested. There's her. Remember that? I looked for it. Oh, yeah. Okay. Yes, Todd. He does have that criminal record that came out a couple of weeks ago. So, you know, you can't just assume it's an ankle. Thank you, Todd. Robin. Robin North Carolina. Good morning, Rob. What do you have for me today? I have two words for this weekend. Oh, the first is the Michigan game, which was completed embarrassment. And the second is a comments Linda Coleman about Asian Wilson. You know, that was on the call for. That's all I have. Tell me, but it had had something to do with Asia not wanting to play for Team USA due to Caitlin Clark was going to be the star worldwide. Do I have that right, Rob? Yes, that's what I'm pretty much that's what Linda Cole said.

27:55Asia would jealous of. Then I mean, I'm. Caitlin's popularity. Okay. I need a little more research on that one. If Linda Cohen saying that's why Asia Wilson, who doesn't look like she would back down from anything or anybody. I've left. Caitlin Clark is more recognizable worldwide than Asia Wilson. I don't know if that she has her own shoe. Why wouldn't you want to be able to be on display for the entire world with Caitlin Clark and maybe sell more shoes? Yes, Marvin. I think Asia's all right. She's got four WNBA MVP awards. Yeah. There's like this inferiority complex that Caitlin Clark's in a fascination. She is. Asia Wilson is a better player. Asia Wilson is one of the greats of all time. Caitlin Clark is must see TV. Yes, Mark.

28:55I think Caitlin Clark is the face of the WNBA as far as popularity, but Asia Wilson is the best player. Yeah. I'm fine with that. Everybody gets caught up in, you know, talking about Caitlin Clark, and she never won a national title. Like, no, she didn't. And she hasn't had great success in the WNBA. But I don't think anybody said that about Steph Curry when he came in. It was like, all right, he got Davidson to the college basketball, you know, March Madness. And then there were a few years he didn't win anything, but I don't think anybody watched and go, yeah, but he didn't win anything. Yes, Marvin. Right. When Davidson was an NCAA tournament, yes. May have been the better player on the college level, but Steph was the phenomenon. And that's what Caitlin Clark is. Uh, yes, Dylan. Yeah, imagine if John Miranda taken Murray State to the Promised Land, how different things would be right now. Yeah. Who cares? Let's see. So Linda Cohn says, so is there any part of Asia that didn't want to spend a couple of weeks watching the World Cup become the Caitlin Clark show?

30:04Because let's face it, Caitlin, uh, in, in the building and attention follows. Okay. I, yes, Marvin. But also you can't even find where team USA is playing right now. We don't even know what tournament this is. We know we have, they have USA across the chest, but you know, you don't see them on TV. You can't even find them. I've seen the highlights. I don't even know what the event is because the season's still going on. I'm going, wait a minute. Why are they playing games over against China? And then they're going to come back and resume their schedule. Uh, trip in Vegas. Good morning, trip. Welcome back. Best and worst of the weekend. Good morning, D. Two. Always good to speak with y'all. I had a comment first before that. Oh, when you're talking about with, uh, close Swini and South Carolina, you know, this year's a governor's race. And what can be, but almost $60 million buyout. What is the public employee that gets back into a lot.

31:04And then the best and worst of the best. My South Carolina game cocks making that easy look easier. If we get to a bowl, I'm excited, but at least we can win sometimes easy. Then my sarcastic worst is this, uh, Miss Engelberg, the retired or calling a quits with a W and the W and the A. She's done such a great job. It reminds me of the person that hits every par five and two and in three cuts. You don't know a good day. Thank you, Tr. Thank you. Yeah, Kathy Engelberg will step down at the end of the season. Now, she was part of the growth and responsible for part of the growth. I'll give her that. Um, I just think having a voice, a person who is out front, just like you have with the other commissioners, you have to answer. Whatever those questions are, be available. Be out there. You know, take ownership of it. When you hide or give the appearance, you're hiding.

32:04That's when you frustrate, you know, people, fans want to know. The media wants to know. Hopefully whoever you're bringing in will understand that. Uh, or at least utilize the position where you're going to be out front. You're selling. You're selling your league constantly. Be out there. Sell. All of these commissioners have to talk about tough things. Yes, Marvin. But also this would have been easy for her. If she has said, no, it's not a good time right now in Lake Tahoe. If she has said, no, this wouldn't have been an issue. Well, it's still be an issue that she doesn't address the issues. But I think it made it a bigger issue when she said she would come on and then decided not to join us. Yes, when she threw an intermediary said, PR staff has advised me against coming on. And that was the only communication we got. I mean, that sounds like somebody who's afraid, afraid of the questions. And we waited two hours for her.

33:06You could have just said, hey, not comfortable doing it. I wouldn't have said a word. But you know, I've said enough on it. I wish her well. And she should take a victory lap with some of the great things that she did. But it could have been so much better. Mark and Arizona. Hi, Mark. Hey, Dan. Dan at six foot one clocked in at one 88 this morning. First time, long time and proud owner of the original suck it back road t-shirt. Best of the weekend. My daughter, Dave, fight and Irish taking on West continent green bay. Taking it to him after a slow first start. And Dan, no, no, worst really. Main reason for me calling in and just bear with me real quick. On August 4th, I became a member of the DDC. And my dad and I shared a love for you guys in this show. There was probably only a few days or weeks. Yeah, we didn't talk about highlights that made us laugh. And I've been listening to it for more than 20 years.

34:07This is the first time I've ever tried to call in. And with his celebration of life this week, just wanted to call. And thank you guys so much for the impact you have on your listeners and the relationships between fathers and sons. So thanks for all you do. Keep it up and go Irish. Thank you, Mark. Thank you for sharing. Austin and Philly. I Austin. What do you have for me? Hey, Dan. Thanks for taking my call first. You know, best wishes to mark. I've obviously a tough thing to go through. But I do have a best and worst of a weekend. And I think it will inform that I'm Austin from Austin in Philly, but I'm also Austin from Atlanta. Best of a weekend got to go to the Braves Philly's game on Sunday. And watching Ronald the Cunia hit that ball in the eighth inning, tie it with a three-run home run. And then listening to the booze come down in Citizens Bank Park. There is almost no better feeling in sports than when it's a fan base. And especially that fan base. Booze one of your players after they do something like that.

35:07And then my worst is yesterday getting the news that Tungwilo will unfortunately be the starting quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons week one. Was hoping Panics would be ready. Really was just too against himself. And I guess he technically won that competition. But I think we're all just waiting for Mike to see the field whenever he's ready. Well, somebody has to start for you Austin and Tua appears to be the healthy option right now. It may turn out you don't have quarterbacks. They're going to have to make a decision on Michael Pennex here soon for next year. But we haven't seen anything. And this guy got banged up in college when he was at Indiana. Kind of went to Washington obviously and played great. That's still one of those. Wait a minute. The Falcons just drafted who? Who? But if you've only started 12 games in two years, I wouldn't call that a sample size, a large enough sample size to go.

36:09We know exactly what we have here. Benjamin in South Carolina. Hi Ben, what do you have for me? Hey Dan, thanks for taking my call. I got two best of the weekend. First one is my South Carolina game coach actually doing what they're supposed to against the cupcake opponent. New offense under kind of brows look good. Defense look good. So just all around good showing. Second best of the weekend is Kwenstein getting Molly Watt by LSU. Okay. Yeah, I guess this is accurate. The halftime speech that Lane Kiffin gave to his team. They were up what 31 to 3 and he's trying to fire up his team. I just don't understand how he's selling this. No matter if you're in the game for one more snap or 50 more snaps, your FN take. You FN take it out on them. The whole FN world hates you. So you get a chance to show the whole world. Go F yourself.

37:10Clemson just had to see it right now. I don't think America hates LSU players. They would hate Lane Kiffin if you want to use that word. This isn't about LSU players being villainized. This is Lane Kiffin. The only players that would be villainized are the guys who were pros who were coming back. And LSU wisely kept them out of that game. But L and look, that's not supposed to go public a halftime speech. But still, if that's how you feel, then I think he's selling his players to come on and join me being hated. It will be a better team, a stronger team. Aaron in Fort Wayne. Hi, Aaron. What do you have for me? Hey, Dan. Thanks for taking my call. I mean, my words to the weekend, obviously learning of the secret clock was quite baffling. I would argue that if there's a referee keeping time unlike a stopwatch, I mean, I would argue if you gave 10 people stopwatches,

38:18wouldn't you end up every single game having these little bits of time that don't add up to the clock on the big screen that everybody else sees? Apparently, I mean, we're not important enough to see the real time. But yeah, it's in. They said the clocks are synced up. So are they synced or are they not synced? Or is there a clause in there? It's like the clocks are synced, a lot of Michigan's playing, lots of Michigan, and then they can add up another second at the end of the game if they need to. Yeah, I don't understand it. I'd never heard that. I would assume that the clock that the officials or the replay booth would be the same as in the stadium. I don't know why it wouldn't be, but we just found out, you know, Chris Fowler has been calling college games for decades. He's like, I didn't know anything about that. I'm not doing it. It's also tough too, because if Michigan doesn't complete that second Hill Marriott's attempt, is this a conversation today at all? Yes. Yes, because we found out that the clocks aren't synced and they can put a second.

39:22Now every game that ends, when it goes zero, zero, zero, we're going to go wait a minute. Is there any more time yet? So yes, now would it be anywhere near this? No, it would not. But we did find out something that I still am questioning. Why aren't they synced up? And how much time is there a tenth of a second? Does that dictate then you put a full second on? I don't know these answers, but I do think that we would be talking about them. By the way, LSU at Ole Miss coming up, they have Texas A&M, they have Alabama, then they have Texas, and then they're at Tennessee. A&M Alabama and Texas, I believe, are at LSU, where's Ole Miss on the road and Tennessee. Look, he might end up with three losses this year, but he's the face of college football.

40:24Like it or not, you're going to have to deal with him. He's still a great coach. Through all of this, a great offensive coach. And I was fooled with the ESPN Puff piece when they did that flowery lane kiffin, is finally found a home, happy and taking yoga. And his ex-wife lives there and everything is great. And he's found peace until he didn't. Because I thought, why would you leave a place like that? Lane is not somebody to stay. Lane is somebody to go. He's always going to be somebody to go. Yes, Mark. This might be apples and oranges, but do you think Lane Kiffin at LSU might be like Dian Sanderson at Colorado, where you get the celebrity aspect of it, and you get big famous alums coming back, or just famous people overall coming down to Baton Rouge, more so than they were before.

41:25Yeah, but you get Libby Dunn and you get who's the other guy? Yovon. Yeah, the Ovan. Okay. Or Busson with the boys. Okay. That ain't Colorado. That was a different animal. No, no, you had big time celebrities coming out there. So I don't know if it's one of those where proud at LSU alum and it's somebody you, you know, works on CSI or, you know, I have no idea. Yes, yes, Ray. He changed the ground game pretty quickly though. Last year they were 120 second per game in rushing yards and they had 309 in week one. Quick. You just don't think Clemson's going to get manhandled like that. I always included them as an SEC kind of feel. Man, they look like an ACC thing. Yes, do. Yeah, they got run all over by Sam Levin like bad. Yeah, he played a great game.

42:26Yeah, dad. But Chris Fowler is right. I don't know if you can, you can play that way every weekend and week out with an SEC schedule. Yes, Mark. Clemson kind of feels like Florida during the Urban Meyer years where they had a four to five year run words like, man, they are the power in college football. And then all of a sudden because of NIL, because of the transfer portal and not wanting to adapt to it, they just kind of went away as far as a national power. Yeah, the Clemson, you can probably trace this back to a certain time, certain recruiting period where dabbo was like, I'm, we don't do it that way. My, my transfers or my whatever are in my locker room. He was not going to entertain that. I'm like, if I was coaching now, I would not take a freshman. Unless it was somebody that I knew is I was going to develop, I would be taking transfers because I can actually see you play in a real game. College game. Yes, Mark. Unless it was Trevor Lawrence. Yeah.

43:26But you can only hold on to the Trevor Lawrence era for so long. No, I'm saying you don't tell Kelly Bryant right now. I'm saying if you have somebody as good as Trevor Lawrence, which dabbo had, it was like, all right, you know, we're taking him. I felt bad for Kelly Bryant. He was the incumbent starter for like two seasons. And as soon as Trevor Lawrence to that first pass, sorry, Kelly. DJ you, we thought that he was going to be something club Nick. We thought, yeah, Kade club Nick. Yeah. All right, let me take a break. Last call for phone calls, what we learned, what's in store tomorrow. We'll try to accomplish all of that right after this.

When I was 14 years old, I was kidnapped and health captive for nine months. I survived and I've spent my life exploring how other people survive what should have destroyed them.

44:26I'm Elizabeth Smart and these are the survivor files. I just remember this low taunting voice next to my ear saying, shut up, don't say anything. Every week, I'm with survivors who live through the unthinkable. I knew if he woke up without a doubt he was going to hurt me. I started feeling that there was someone at the end of my bed and I just started screaming. They are abducted, stalked, controlled and nearly silenced. But these aren't stories about what's taken from them. Their stories about what it takes to make it out alive. Listen to the survivor files with Elizabeth Smart on the IHARDS Radio app Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi, this is Kylie Breikman. Angel Jaretana. Jeremy Colhane, Cash McDonald.

46:33On the new podcast, Solita, we share the messy reality of traveling alone as a woman. And wait four hours for the next bus or this random dude is offering me a ride on his motorcycle. I choose Option B. I'm Julie Piñero and I travel by myself because it's a rare space where I can say yes without asking anyone else first. I'm on a mission to reclaim the word Solita, trading the pity for possibility.

It's when you're alone that you're most receptive to the world as it is and not the lies you're sold about it. It can be a time where you push your limits, change your mind or wake up to a new version of yourself. So whether you're a solo travel veteran or you're too nervous to book your first trip, I hope you listen to Solita on the IHERD radio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

48:35Our town is small taters by most standards, right? But to the people who grew up here, it's everything. What happens when a quiet Tennessee town becomes the front line in a battle over the future of America? Developers with right wing ties have purchased hundreds of acres of land in the area. The first thing you see when it pops up is high nears and apple etchum. But they weren't just planning houses. We need cities on a shining hill that exemplify and embody the Christian way of life. Stop right there. Is that normal? A podcast about what happens when a small town becomes the site of a social experiment. God need material and decides to fight back. Do not use my hard work to sell your bulls***. They're not just opposing what's being planned for here. Our hometown is not a test too. They feel like they're standing in opposition to an entire administration. Guess you didn't move in on a bunch of dumb hillbillies now, did you?

49:39Booker McFarland joins the show. LSU's Booker McFarland joining in this show. Coming up tomorrow. A reminder that right after this show in about 12 minutes, it'll be Papsden Perloff, the not so fast, the extension of this show. Basically we're going to four hour show. I do three and then they do noon to one Eastern there. Man Marvin telling some fun stories when we were during the commercial break. What stories? Everybody's like, oh, okay, look at Marvin play. Go ahead Marvin. I shan't. Yes, Dylan. Is Marvin kind of the Lindsey Lohan of the show now at the ankle? Oh, no, no, no. I thought that was kind of hot with Lindsey Lohan with an ankle bracelet. Yeah, it's modern or on. Oh, photoshoot. Yeah. Has anybody ever had an ankle monitor on? Dilling. I actually have not. All of my arrests have been in a jail, not in my house. You haven't had house arrest.

50:40I've not been on house arrest, thankfully, but that actually doesn't sound terrible. You would probably hate that. Yeah, I wouldn't be able to sit around. No, yes, Todd. I've been in handcuffs, but that was with Simone. That French is really weird. And she said, we used to play things together. There is no way she put you in handcuffs because you... I'd go to be a fun thing to say. That never happened. She put it Carrots and Celery and like ranch dressing a little crude decay up on the third floor of her little penthouse. She said, Bayon, no, we had a good time, but there was no handcuffs. Because you are claustrophobic. I can't imagine if you had handcuffs on. That's how does she was. I can't get these off me. I'm only hurting my wrist. I would have thought that whipped cream, but you had ranch dressing. That's a little different. I would have preferred ready whip to be sprayed around, but yeah, it was just like the Carrots and Celery and Radishes and ranch dressing. But we made it work. Thank you, Todd. Quentin and Houston. Hi, Quentin. Hey, Dan. Thanks for taking my call. Hey, I just want to start by saying I am by no means a Michigan fan.

51:43But when I was watching the game on Saturday evening with some friends, Michigan had their last drive. And they had a pretty significant first down. And the clock just kept rolling. And they're moving the chains and they're marching it down the field. Now look at my friends. They go, what is happening? And then when Michigan goes to clock to spike the ball to obviously stop the clock, it continues to roll. And the referee comes on the field and goes, hey, can you put nine seconds back on the clock real quick? So I wonder if that was a part of them going back and realizing they ran four seconds, maybe three seconds off the clock while moving the chains and spiking the ball. So I don't know. Just thought I'd throw that out there. Yeah, just spring them on. Everybody got a thought of conspiracy. Throw them in. Throw them into the blender here. Nothing's going to happen. Even if you knew that you made a mistake, you're not going to overturn it. And look, from my two sources who are involved in this, they, you know, look at this and say this was called correctly.

52:47You may not like it, but this was called correctly. And I'll take them at their word for it, but it's still confusing. That is one tenth of a second, mean that you can put one second back on the clock. And why is it that the broadcast booth and the stadium, at least the broadcast booth? If you don't want to put, you know, tenths of a second up there, at least let the broadcasters know that there is a difference in our clock in your clock may not come up. But now anybody who's doing a football game college or the NFL is going to ask that question at least they should. Yes, more historically, what's a worse look for Michigan, the Appalachian state laws or what happened Saturday night? Saturday night app states a good team. Like there they were. That's a, that was a really good program at the time. It's like North Dakota state. Like people don't watch those games. Therefore they're like, man, who's this team? The bison? I'm be like, yeah, watch them. They're unbelievable yet.

53:51Right. Should we have known this was a possibility after the Auburn kick six, that iron ball. Wasn't that something similar? I'd have to go back to that that did they put time back on the clock. I know they put an extra time on the clock when I think Yaldon's foot came out of bounds. TJ Yeldon. Yeah. TJ Yeldon. Yes, Dylan. Yeah, and football's tough because it's unlike like basketball. It's say there's a couple seconds left. You still have to like, you're in mounting the ball. Yeah, multiple things have to happen. There could be literally a hundredth of a second on the clock and you get the playoff. So like, whether it's two seconds or a tenth of a second, it actually, it's kind of arbitrary. This state sports history, Mormon. All right. Got a good one here in 1998. Mark McGuire hit his 60 second home run of the season. And also in 2002, the Houston, Texas played their first regular season game. They beat the Dallas Cowboys 19 to 10. Yeah, David Carr. Steve Tracks will give up the home run to Mark McGuire. Todd, would you learn today? Gerald McCoy considers Aaron Donald to be the greatest defensive tackle in NFL history.

54:53The rim shouldn't rush him back down under. Dylan. Todd is something of a US open expert with the women. Marvin. Gerald McCoy never played a playoff game. Ray. You can do LA work in Tampa. Dude wipes. Weather is better. Available at Amazon, major retailers nationwide. Dude wipes best clean pants down. Thanks for joining us. Our place should have served you for Ray. For Marvin, for Dylan, Todd, Paulie and the entire staff. Have a great day. We'll talk to you tomorrow. Hi, this is Kylie Breakman. Angel Jaritana. Jeremy Colham, Pastor McDonald.
