It's a Football Friday!

0:00I feel like I rushed through that story about the Miami game last night and I did just want to kind of put a bow on it. I got a story about it too. So when I saw that Florida A&M had scored a touchdown because they stripped the ball away from the Miami ball carrier and ran the other way and did score. And I thought, oh, okay, I mean, it's not going to really change anything. It's now 77 to 7. But it said start of the fourth quarter and there were like six minutes. I'm like, what the did they just am I missing something that took me a while and then I thought, did they have a new

1:00rule in football were like a mercy rule of some kind. And then I read today that both teams agreed to shave five minutes off the fourth quarter. And I thought, wow, that is so embarrassing. So everyone involved. It's like for Miami, you're piling up all these points. But hey, they're also using the entire roster, right? I mean, they've got four string guys in there and they're still scoring. They're still throwing the ball too, by the way. But those guys need reps too, just like everybody needs reps. That's excuse you give. But this is we're no longer in the era of we're just going to run out the clock by, you know, handing the ball between the tackles. That's gone. And 77 to 7. So I got to tell you, I had a number of plays last night. Like the Niners, that was a good one. I had Florida and that game started. I jumped on Florida and him plus 69 and a half. Oh, no.

2:02Tell me, should that bet be voided? Yes. I think when you shave off time in a game, yes. I literally all bets are off unless you hit the over. I feel that I'm going to look it up because I'm pretty sure it just gave me the L. But yeah, gave me the L. How we made your mother is the how I met your mother rewatch podcast with me, Josh Radner and series co-creator Craig Thomas. Follow how we made your mother wherever you get your podcasts. That's that's that's some BS. I think it is. I don't know. I mean, you should also be thankful because if that thing had kept going, they would have been like 91 to 7. Well, I don't know if I should be thankful. It's a loss either way. I'm sorry. By half a point or I guess I'm thinking of the the 69 and a half and they shave five minutes off the game. Thinking of the fans of the fan. What? Here we come. Florida and M was just about to make their move. I got. I mean, that was,

3:05you got to be kidding me. Look at the box score and look, Mesa was near perfect. He missed like one pass or whatever and threw for three touchdowns and 300 yards quickly. And then you look at the rest of stats as a team, they missed two passes as a team. They threw for six touchdowns and over 400 yards as a team. They ran for over 400 yards as a team. They had eight hundred and like 56 yards in total offense, including not 20, not 30, not 40, but 42 first downs in that game. They averaged almost 10 yards to carry. I'm not saying like was always like a point two. No, there was 9.8 yards per carry in that game. They their average yards per attempt of a pass was over 14. My God. What? I think it's happened once before. I think Arizona state and Morgan state or somebody like that. They they shave five minutes off a game. I have a vague memory of this happening before, but

4:05yeah, that's that's pretty embarrassing. Kater, we're doing something in the business. We called burying the lead. We are burying the lead today because today, my friend is a football Friday. Oh, yeah. What were you talking for? Well, we're talking to Troj Lions football added to the mix with Michigan and Michigan state and all our favorite directionals. Yes, indeed.

It's not just the sights and sounds, but for me, it's the smells. I was driving yesterday, had the windows down the car and I smelled that fresh cut grass and this time of the year, there's a different smell in the air. It I know another way to say it. It smelled like football. I'm like, there we go. This is this exactly. I had sense memories of two a day practices and

6:12and the whole bit and get right to it. Let's put the game plan into the walkthrough before the the day before the game. And I mean, I was I'm fired up. I'm fired up. I know we had a whole slate of college football games last week. Doesn't matter. I mean, that was college and I don't feel as strongly about college as I used to because of a bunch of reasons. Whatever. This is the NFL. We've had last two nights of NFL to kind of wet our appetite with some really bad games. And now we got the full slate on Sunday. Look, we got real college football coming in this weekend. We got some big games and looking in. Arbery. They got Oklahoma coming to town in East Lansing.

Yeah. It's when you go outside and the temperatures dropped into the 50s, but the sun is out and shining and you feel you just feel it in the air.

7:16That to me is there's football weather. And when we get that perfect football weather, I got you know, you just know you know inside. You know, deep in your bones. It just instinctively kicks in. It's time for football. And I don't know what I do in the fall without it. Like when people ask what's my favorite season, I always say fall. Why? Why? Big part of it. Football. 248-539-97.
