But litten, listen that little set that little sweats who said,

Well, just so you know, O Joe, I don't know if you thought that maybe I have some inside knowledge that you don't. I don't. This was the first time that I saw when it popped up on my.

Like, oh okay oka O care I thought I don't.

I had no idea. I asked told me last night stuff was dropping. I didn't know what was actually dropping. But like you, I like, I like what I'm seeing. A who you telling? So I desired that Austin is doing an unbelievable job. Hey, shout out to you, Austin. Appreciate that bro qualities are limited, O yo, so make sure you grab your wild supplies last. We do have beanies, coozies and mugs. Wow COOZI great? O Yo.

Yeah, I don't know. Talk to me now, talk to me, take your time.

They must be there must be like a million cats in Kansas City. Ain't no way a team can be this lucky. Oh no, O Joe, Ain't no way a team could be this luck O Yo, Hey, look, I played fourteen years, O Joe, I ain't never had this. Look this much luck in fourteen years set along one season. So the Chiefs escaped Black another Black Friday game with

The center don't know.

That you fall. You don't know anything about that. He's trusting you, and he's trusting his guard. The guard wipes his hand down. That lets the certain know. The quarterback is ready for the ball. Yeah, he snapped it. Connelly's looking outside like, damn, they're not sick. Ball hits him in the chest, gets kicked, and uh, the chief pounce on it and they win the game. You know, a couple of weeks ago against the Broncos, potential kick, blocked the kick.

They blocked the kick. Oh ahead, I don't you know.

The funny thing about it is, and when you say you don't know if it's luck, this is something that's been going on for the Chiefs like the past three years. If you understand now, if you pay attention, I don't know. I'm not a conspiracy theorist.

I don't know.

If I don't want to sit there and say the rest is on it on their side, but if luck has anything to do with anything, they are the team that are being blessed by the football guys to be on the receiving end of it, game after game, at the game, at the game, at the game, every time, for some reason, everything seems to go in their favor. Now I'm not saying Peyton, I'm not saying the rest on their side, but somebody has favor for the Chiefs

It does, oh Joe.

I think the thing is is that if Patrick Mahomes was doing this, it's like defensively they block a kid, the center snapped the ball and the quarterback isn't ready to hits him in the chest. And because we've seen guys, we saw Lamar Jackson get one. He bobbled, he reached down with one hand, pick it up, scramble and touchdown. This ball hits him in the chest and cams one way and the.

Chiefs jump on it.

In the game, everything seems to go their way. I'm not sure what it is. I don't know why.

And you look at it an o'conmons twenty three or thirty five, three forty two touchdown. They ran the ball twenty five times one hundred and sixteen yards, so they run. They ran the ball for four and a half yards of carry. They did they made they weighed one mistake and when they made the mistake. That's why we always say, oh Joe, mistakes, turnovers aren't all equal. If you make that mistake in the first quarter, you still have three and a half quarters to overcome that. You make that mistake.

And he was about to pull it off again.

Oh Joe be about to reach it to the bag pull out another A damn Black Friday shopping.

Yeah, I'm going I'm going chief shop.

Right, It's something about not only I don't want to say Black Friday. Anytime you play at divisional opponent and you know them well, you know you have to play the Chiefs. You know they know each other well, you know your Tennessee's, you know what you like to do on down in distance. Obviously you're gonna have some some I call it salad dressing or some different plays. You know, a twinkle here, a twist there. But most of the time everything is really the same, and you know it's

That we're used to seeing.

And even in the years, even when they lost Tyreek, they were still more consistent. This is what they've been over the last couple of years now. They did have some costly drops. They had a key third down drop on third down by the hot Travis is still trying to like he's cressing if that's what that is, though, Joe, when you don't get the ball where you're not putting up the numbers that you want to you want to make every player he wants to Hey, he wants to

Third and team.

And but the biggest thing is the offensive line on Joe. They can't protect it hold on left tackle and right tackle. I'm not sure who they are or where they're from. There needs to play in that area. If you're serious about going further, you know, and the competing for that chip, you gotta think the team you're gonna play coming up, especially in the playoffs, it's a bunch of It's a

But the quarterbacks. Every quarterback that's gonna potenially place better than Aid and O'Connell. Most of these guys, with the exception of Rock Bowls that Brock Bibles. We're gonna talk about him Ojo He I'm not so sure he not he a top five tight end and I'm not so sure he two three four five either. I'm just saying, I mean, hey, he beating he beaten all pro corners.

What happens, Ojoe? You going home?

Going home?

You're going home.

You playing with fire because you keep leaving these teams in there. You had them sixteen to three, you didn't score a touchdown. You've got to put teams away. You got to put separation between you and these teams, or you're asking for trouble late in the ball game and they don't have. Oh it's like worrybi bro. That's cover zero. Once you release inside, get starting to get back. Why so, Patrick Mahome, he throwing the ball to the middle. He's

I don't know.

I don't I really don't know why. Why would why would Trav try to bend it like that? I would have just kept it straight up the field. I mean, that's what I would have done.

I think between trap and in this, in this quarterback and my homes, they've been off script for so long all year yo, that for so long that this is one of the few times that we've seen them off, you know, And I don't know, just for some something is off for the Chiefs, and it's been off for them all season long, something off of them all season alone, but for some reason and the most opportune times, past

Many of times I look at it like, but see, here's the thing. It's like people say, well, they got built out against Philly Bradford the fourth told you he held a guy. So you you the guy told you, yeah, I held him. I was beat because what happened, Juju, was about the option away from him. He grabbed it. So you don't want him to throw a flag in that situation, even though it will warrant it a penalty. We saw against Kansas City the guy ran up his back.

Easy passed the affair of the bangles pasting the affairce yef I, oh, Joe, your guy ran up in his back.

Yeah, I mean so that's what I got confused at basketball. Well, you know, you know you gotta swallow your whistle there. Why, So let me ask your question. If he had done that in the first quarter, is it a flag. Yeah, but so we ain't gonna call it because your teeth. So let me ask your question. If we flipped it and the Kansas City guy had tugged the Eagles guy, and they were down. Are you okay with them swallowing the whistle there? No? You know, if that's Kansas City,

Back, you're okay with them? Now?

Oh, of course not. All I'm saying is ojo as I get it at the time of the game.

But a penalty is a penalty.

If you look at the rule book, it doesn't say, well, if it's laid the ball game, don't throw a flag. If if you jump off sides, ojoe, if you jump off sides with a minute to go in the game, they're gonna throw a flag.

Yeah, go ahead.

You know.

It is the funny thing about it is when you watch the game of football as much as you know, you know, you can throw a flag on every single play, yes, especially you know, especially an interior with them boys battling, battling, going, going out with it. And that's the funny thing when it comes to when throwing flags, don't allow the referee. I don't want the referee to determine the outcome of a game.

Between you yep, begging the fourteen point lead. Would a minute to go there? You go, yeah, because if it's a field if it's a one point game or field goal game, or you need to touch the team either touch down the beacher. Now you open your subject to yourself. Because here's the thing, O Joe. Think about what Bradford did to peel me. If he wide open, all the guy see is juju jersey tug the back judge. Look you they got a side judge and look it how

Is shot.

Yeah, I'm a file is shot of you, because hey, I know you're gonna hold you. You're not gonna call it or it don't operate like that, you know you can't.

You can't be belligerent with the goddamn hole and call or passing aperience, whether it be offensive or defensive. I just think to me, in certain situations, referees, referees need to hold their whistle, so they don't determine the outcome of a game. Mistakes will happen. Now if it's if it's blatant, a blatant hole where you disrupt the timing of a player, you impede a receiver trying to you know, get to a.

Ball like Bradford did. Juju? Yeah, like like that. That's blazant blazing your guy. I don't know who your guy was that right up the back that ran up the back of Kansas City. Now that's that was a little ify. That was a little isfu. Would you stop that? Listen to got he jumped over the top of it, the guy trying to catch the ball like this, Yeah, he listened.

And just the fact that the Bengals player in that instance has it right for the ball as well.

He has a right for you as it right for the ball as well. So but you can't go through the guy to get the ball. You have it right like let's get say, for the sake of argument, if I'm coming like you coming like this here, and I'm coming from the side and I do like this here and our bodies make contact, yes, but I can't go through you to have to try to to try to have an opportunity that the same ability to get to

I was surprised.

And if you're seeing OJO teams, now we saw last week what Carolina do we saw the week before when the Buffalo do and I said this, what happens when that defense is a lights out? Now you're gonna mess around Baltimore. D offense is better than the Raiders. Buffalo's offense is better than the Raiders. There are a lot

You know what you're asking for trouble?

Yeah, you know, it's funny the fact that you just said that. Think about this. The offense hasn't gotten it together all this season, right, Patrick Mhill, Patrick Mahomes, hasn't played as well as we'd like them to accept in actual specific times when they need it.

Yes, what happens when they do?

What if they do get it together the playoff time? What if they get it together, if they find it decide all of a sudden, you know what, it's playoff time. We're finna played these last four games and take it to the chip in New Orleans and take it on home. What if they playing possum?

You know what's happening because the pressure is getting Mahomes. He doesn't feel comfortable setting his feet, and he's missing throws that he would normally make.

Mate.

Yeah, you see how he got up and stay on the ball and say, hey, what y'all gonna do? Y'all would just let the left tackle just get beat the whole game? Are y'all gonna give me any opportunity to throw this football? Because you got Crosby on one side and they put the guy on the other side, and

If you do know if and is a busted body, because if you're not, we'll see you in Cancun.

Oh, y'all, are the Chiefs the worst eleven and one team that you've seen?

Oh man, are the Chiefs the worst of the eleven one team that we've seen. I say yes, I say yes. But it's one thing about reaching the super Bowl. It's one thing about reaching the playoffs. You know what, it's fifty percent skill coaching and having the players, and it's fifty percent luck. And luck has been on that side.

I don't think.

I don't think outside of the games ennying with block field goals or field goals attempt to win a game, I don't think their record is still the same and there's a different quarterback back there.

No, I think, And also to echo what you just said, O Joe, is that he's great when he has to be great. You look at that Philly game in the second half, they're down, they go touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, field goal. If he at any point in time he doesn't score, they're not beating Philly. If you look at San Francisco, san Francisco kicks the field goal. Now that was done on San Francisco. I don't know why they would take the ball in a situation why they took the ball.

Oh yo. I hate saying the worst leven than one team.

That's like saying, man, that jover there the broken billionare I ever see? I mean that sound that really does sound oxy muronic. I mean, another dude of a billionaire? How is somebody a broke billionaire. I mean, how is somebody bad at eleven and one. I mean, you might be you know, you'll get you five hundred or you're slightly above. But they've only lost one game and they're trying to do something that's unpressed did it? So? I hate to say that, but boy ahead, man, I'm just

Yeah?

The math, math, math, and so especially. Look, the defense still just held him tonight till seventeen points.

But if you look at Buffalo, they gave up thirty to Buffalo.

That was the first time they had given up that many points in almost a year and a half. They gave up thirty. Then they give up thirty plus to Carolina, And that's what's concerned. If the defense was continually holding people down. I was like, okay, but what happened happens when the levee bust, when all the water comes fewing out. Can those tackles hold up and give packing Maholes the tide that he needs. That's what they're gonna end up having.

You got it.

And not only can he pass block, he hey he masked on the run, a hell of a run block.

I don't want no part of that. I don't want no part of that.

I'm not even in trenches.

Yeah.

Oh, Carolina had twenty seven, so one said, so there won't thirty twenty seven on phield walk off field goal. Yeah. I'm just looking at the I'm just looking at the offensive line plate. I'm like, damn, I don't know how much longer. It's gonna be interesting. They still got the Broncos. The Broncos are like second, maybe they second the third in sacks, right, it might be one, but they are very high up in sacks.

Where the Broncos in sacks, I think.

The the the the Ravens are up there also in sacks. Okay, Broncos are won in sacks. And they got the Broncos again this time in Denver. And you know, the Broncos always play them tough, even when they had great, great team team that was winning the Super Bowl. I mean, the Broncos played them tough. The Broncos play them tough. And so it's gonna be very very interesting to see how this thing play out moving forward. Like I said, they're gonna play some defense that can pressure the quarterback.

No, Listen, I don't think the Chiefs for anybody, especially not two times Super Bowl, Super Bowl championship him three times winning Chiefs. I don't think they're free anybody at all. As long as they got fifteen out there, now, oh we're good. We're gonna be all right, Oh Joe.

When it happened, it took a lot a little bit. When didn't take its long. I mean, we didn't think it would take this long, but the Bears did it. Matt Deeberflus was fired after six straight loss, and Tayler Williams said he changed the final play call at the end of the game. I ended up changing the play because we had thirteen seconds. Any play that you have with thirteen seconds with no time, well we had a

Guess how much time you got naw o yo, you got thirty three three.

So now all I need if I can get ten yards, all I want to do is get ten yards.

They gonna look.

I think they're not gonna They're not gonna let me out of bounds. I know that they're gonna play the boundaries because you don't have any time outs. But even if they played the boundaries, Oh Joe, I don't care. I don't care. I can get my field goal unit owned, I can get the guys that's not on the field goal unit off, and I can get a kick up, get a kick, snap down, kick in eighteen seconds a list, eighteen seconds.

That's the cutoff we used.

Now some people say they can stretch it and maybe get into sixteen, but our mato was we always wanted eighteen seconds, and we practiced it religiously. Go hey, yeah, but he was let go Brady safe, Baard Safety Jacquette. Jacquan Brisker didn't hold back when the news of his head coach was fired. He said, God, don't make mistakes. You know what that means. We saw we saw last last night. We saw Keenan Allen said the players played well enough to win the game.

That's there's two times. The underlying tone tells you all you need to know. The frustration was already built up. It was continuing to view. The players were frustrated, keep making the same mistake. It's like it's like a it's like a player. Teams will tolerate the player.

If he makes a mistake, but you keep making the same mistake, They're gonna say either if the way we teaching it or the way you learning it, or you just don't give up. Yeah, now if they if maybe you're a visual I'm a visual learner. You just couldn't tell it. I need to see it on the board. Let me see it on the board, or let me see it on or let me see it on the page. Let me see it on the paper. Okay, you want to go here? Okay, now, I got you, I got you, right, Roe, Chad.

Quick quick, unless you eleap, you eleap.

Keep making that same mistake. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, you're right, You're right. But the betty the betty you are at your position, the more value you

The more grace you get. Yeah, true, absolutely, Uh, But you just couldn't have him keep making that mistake. Think about all the games that they lost, the last six that's come down to one possession. Now, I don't put that blame on him for the hell, Mary right, because he called the time out, he had him and want to call him and and and and and and twenty nine was horse jacking around. I mean you know he was.

Wouldn't even rush.

Yeah, now because they backed it up, Say what ten fifteen yards? Guys rush, they actually try to block the PA. They feel like that they have a better chance of being Now. So who is the best coach to fix the Bears? Hey?

I said it, I said it yesterday and I'm gonna say it again.

I like Belichick. I like Belichick.

Will he actually take the job, I'm not sure, but I know where he goes. He has to have a quarterback at the him and he has he has a quarterback and CA does he has a He's a quarterback in Cali william you know. And if there's anybody that Caleb Williams can benefit from as a head coach, it would be the court. I mean, the coach that has six seven Super Bowl rings, you know. I mean that's just me. I could be wrong. Some people might not like it, but I like it. New England, Chicago, same weather,

I know that. I think the thing that's concerning to me is that coach Belichick only knows one way to coach, and he wants to coach everybody, all the quarterbacks like he coached Tom. Tom could take that type of coaching. Everybody can't take that type of coaching o jo. But as a coach, the really great coaches know how to get through to a player using different techniques and tactics to get the.

Same point across.

You can't dog cuss, you can't be condescending, you can't be flippant or dismiss it.

Just because when I was that way with Tom.

Okay, you might be one way in a relationship with one young lady, but you try that with another young lady and she gonna slap five. The same thing. You might be one way with one boyfriend or in a relationship with someone and you talk to them that way. They're not gonna tolerate that. But the objective is to understand what is the best way, Oh Joe, that I can get through this player that he understands what I'm trying to say. Some people you can coach like Tom Brady.

Tom.

He never did that. He said the team played well. It wasn't just Tom. A lot of other coaches were Alway. Ad Peyton played unbelievable, Aaron Rodgers played great, John Elway, Dan Marino, YadA, YadA, YadA. Coaches. That's not what coach Belichick did, we had a lot of guys to play well. Tom, Well, he didn't have open heart surgery when he got stitches in his palm. That's what Tom wanted because he looked at coach Belichick like a second father.

Tom wants a proof.

We all wants to be see when people say a validation, yes we do, because we want validations. We plub a great season. Send me to the Pro Bowl, give me my All Pro honors, give me MVP, give me Defensive Player of the Year, Rookie of the Year. That is validation. And people say, well, I don't care up, Yes you do. You want that Oscar, you want that Emmy, you want that Grammy. You want to be number one on the billboard? You do?

You want it?

You want that promotion on your job. That's validation. Oh so you work at the same job and you don't want to get promoted. I'm cool. I said I worked thirty years that it's no you want to get promoted. That's validation. Tom wanted that from Coach Belichick and but Coach Belichick was unwilling to give that to him. But that didn't stop Tom from trying win after win, super Bowl after Super Bowl Coach Belichick looks at it like this.

It clouds your judgment.

Coach Belichick says, I'm not gonna let any of these players cloud my judgment. So I'm gonna keep him at a distance. As my grandfather used to say, boy, I'm gonna feed you with a long handle spoon, which means I'm not gonna let you get too close to me. Coach Belichick to understand, everybody doesn't have the skin excuse me that Tom had, so you can't coach him like that. Yeah, how do I coach this guy? But the same results that I got out of coaching another guy another way?

Right?

I mean he don't been around the game long enough. Now, you know, he got to think about how long he's been around the game. Yes, he he's dealt with different players, and I'm sure he can adjust especially do you know to the time.

That well, why don't you judge with Mac Jones? Oh Mac Jones was horrible coach? Oh Joe, Well, hell, will you give me somebody? Hey, I tell you what o't Joe. I'm gonna have a defensive alignment to be your receiver coach. I'm gonna have him trying to tell you how to run rocks. How that's gonna work for yo, Joe? And you know I'm not talking about no see now you looking at your year six, year seven, I'm talking about a year two. You hear what I said.

I even if you have someone that's coaching at a position that's not his original position, you still would have to be able to play said position.

And if you can't, Joe, the guy went to the Pro Bowl as a rookie, so he just forgot how to play. Mac Jones led him to the playoffs. It went took it went to the Pro Bowl, so he just got how forgot how to play.

I know, we we we can't, we can't. You know how You know how hard it is to be consistent year in the year out. Now we yeah, we cannot. We can't just put that on. You know, some people have some people have what's we call it right artists come out and be a one hit wonder. You know, it's about it's about stacking those that stacking that consistency up year in the year out.

It happens all the time.

You've seen somebody go to a Pro Bowl one year, then the next few years, well, what the hell happened to them? Now we can't blame it them the coaches.

I'm not saying Mac.

I'm not saying Mac Jones was going to be the fifteenth or the twentieth greatest quarterback of all time. But that guy had potential. Oh yeah, he took a team to the playoffs. If it easy to go to the playoffs? Oh absolutely not exactly, and he did that. But see that's the areace of coach Belichick because he believed it doesn't matter who, you gonna have a special teams coach that's never called a play and a defensive coordinator that's

Right?

Dang?

I don't know. That's a good question. I know one thing.

I know. You can't deny his resume. You can't resume and Chicago needs something with the.

Residue like that. But you got to understand, look at Caleb, he's a young guy. You think you can talk to young guys like he talked to Tom. Yeah no, but I'm sure he got Here's the difference, Joe, here's the difference. Tom was a sixth round draft pick. Try Caleb Williams the number one overall draft pick. He ain't going nowhere?

Right?

Yeah, I see you're going with it. You see how guys guys that get high draft pick, they don't they don't be listening to you, like guys, I mean something, not all, but guys that fill six seventh undred have to preage up what you need from the coach.

You right, coach? Okay, first round? Or said, man, please, but.

You know, but he wouldn't act like that, especially at the quarterback position.

You know, ain't gonna be like that. You just said all the time, how he read Tom Brady for a throw when they lost to the playoffs.

What you mean he thought, Hey, listen, no, I'm talking to tell about Kyla. I said, Cayler wouldn't be like that. But also he was setting the president for those coming in.

You know.

I remember that was the first first meeting. First time, I was like, what the fuck going on here? What's wrong?

Baby? Who called? What do you call?

Baby?

French fry?

You can't you can't hear her singing mm hm baby, come say hello tongue. Come on, she's just waking up.

Oh okay, So we have a we have, but we haven't decided on the coach yet.

So we'll see.

Yeah. Uh, Cam Newton calls out to us arm strength to his armstrang is exposed in cold weather, the verdicts out when scouting Miami Dolphins because tour doesn't have it armed in cold weather.

Oh yoall yeah.

Are the are the dolphins woes tours arm Mike McDaniel coaching.

What is the blade for the.

Inability to get wins consistently when the temperature drops below thirty you.

Know what, that's a that's a great question. I'm not sure sure what it is.

Now.

We can't blame Mike mcdane's we can't blame tour. You know, the armstrings always been the thing that people have complained about many of times, and he always has shown the doubters that that doesn't matter. I'm not sure it's the inclement weather, you know, especially with it being cold, that doesn't affect you know, you being able to throw the ball, you know, through the wind. It wasn't even windy.

It was just cold. The other night. Now, when it started started, it started, the snow started. Company started like a cross where and I saw some player from the Packers. So them boys didn't want to be out there. It was cold, it was shivery. Obviously they were cold.

But you think about the history of the Dolphins playing in cold weather, it's they've always they've always been, you know, abysmal in cold weather for some reason, and obviously being in Miami that might have some type of affecting you when you're always in eighty degree weather and then it's time to go play somewhere cold.

What the problem is?

I actually do not know. I don't know mentally, especially as a Dolphins player. When you going to those games where you're playing thirty thirty and below twenty degrees, whether it may be you have to lock in. You got to lock in and not even really care about the weather around you. But the task at hand, it's only four quarters. How well can I play for four quarters so I can go out here and get my ass back on a plane and back to Miami with a W.

I don't know, how can you here? It's all it's all here, no, no, no any here.

It's cold.

I know, even if it's cold, but you only blocked you only blocked the cold out up here.

That's the only way to do it. And that cold different. So you when you go to when you when you're from a warm climate and you go to like the that Midwest cold, that's that bone crunching cold, that thing get in your bone?

Whoa I mean? Because think about it when they stepped off that play.

Damn in win't in Miami, no more win on South beach on Nope, the ground, the ground cold, right, you don't be wanting to drink I don't be wanting to drink no water because the water get on your this cold ah man mm hmmm. And we knew we get certain teams that came more like the Dolphins we played them in the playoffs. Yeah, they want none of that on John mm hmmm.

And it's so it's so funny. I'm from Miami. I'm from Miami, born and raised every bit of Day County and Liberty City. But I love playing the cold weather. I could not wait until we got November in December and Cincinnati. Regards to what our record may have been from on cold, please hurry up. But my wanting to

It's weird.

I'm not sure what the Dolphins could do, man, because this has been going on so long historically for the Dolphins.

You know, it is to his arm, you know, it's.

It's always it's always, it's always something, and it damn sure ain't Mike McDaniels.

They're gonna have to find.

I mean, look, unless they get home field throughout the playoffs, they're gonna end up having to go to Buffalo.

I mean, look, Buffalo isn't going anywhere. Mahomes isn't going anywhere.

Josh McDaniel, Josh Allen, excuse me, isn't going anywhere. And Josh Allen is in your division. So unless you get home, fifth snatched that away from him and you force people to come to Miami when the weather might be nice, will probably be nice. You might get some some you might get some rain, but that's it. You're not gonna like Litta. You're getting snow twenty degrees, ten degrees you not don't get no weather like you got in Kansas City when y'all took y'all lass out there last year.

So that's what you got to hope for, Ojo.

You've got to put yourself in a situation where I don't have I don't have to go there because you gotta go there, because you're probably gonna have to go to Baltimore. You have to go to Kansas City, You'll have to go to Buffalo, you might probably do have to go to Pittsburgh, all those places. It could easily be below thirty, but it might be below twenty.

Yeah, that's let's do it below. Baltimore manageable. You know, Kansas City is manageable. Now you talk about going to Green Bay. Now that's now, that's a different ball game.

Now, No, Cam's City ain't managed. You saw I didn't look back there last year. You saw the lugerious sneed jam Tyreek because Tyreek was cold. You saw that Tyreek had done got used to Tyrek had done, got used to Miami. Yeah, man, it's different. We gotta function differently. You gotta get your mind and you look, you really have to get your mind right to play in cold weather. It ain't no, man, I'm good. Oh you not good? Not, No,

The cold come in, right.

Because sometimes it was snowing so bad and we couldn't they couldn't throw the snow off the field. We did have heating coils on the field that was closest to the closest to the building.

Right now.

They got they upgraded, They about to upgrade again. Look it got unbelieving facilities. But you got to prepare your You got to start preparing yourself that week before, O Joe.

Oh yeah, oh yeah, definitely. But it's hard because it's hard. It is, it's hard to emulate. I just got I got it. Man, here, I'm weird. I got appreciation for that cold twenty degrees, thirty degrees, forty fifty man, bring it on.

I ain't lying, I either. Oh, I'm practicing sleep, I'm giving. I'm putting on everything they gave you. You know you can't you can't. You can't feel the ball. Uh you heard me? No, no, no, not in the game, not the game. But happen to say, yeah, I don't like that. We ain't got no heating benches. We ain't got no crowd to give me, no booze, and I ain't got no drenaline going kiss my kiss my tail. I'm not going out here. Hold on, y'all. Ain't had a heated bitches back then. No, we had

I'm not.

Look, I'm not gonna be so cumbersome, but I can't move because all of a sudden, you look at sluggish.

That might be like, what the hell going on?

So, but you know the lineman, the lineman, lineman come out there, no matter how cold it was, the linman are coming out there with shorts and be coming out there with no snake sleeves always always, and all of them was like that.

It wasn't just like one.

Every lineman, no matter how cold thing was out there with shorts, their pads on, in short sleeves.

Kiss my tail. I ain't.

I'm not going out there like that, Absolutely not. I got on a turtleneck. Uh you had a turn neck. But sure, and practice yeah yeah, man, I'm not fit to boy, I'm not fit to go out there, oh joe, you know, and and and and practice. Once you get caught, once you start shivering, it is a rap if over unless they have y'all had. You know, we had the heater, the blower what do you call the big heater thing? Yeah, yeah, the blow No, we ain't got that, you see, yeah.

Yeah yeah.

So if if you get caught, when you get in that position where you cold and you start shivering, we did have the heaters on the sideline.

Mm hmmm about we had I'm about in practice now, I'm I'm talking about mikey have that, oh wow. And that's why I was like, I already know me, because hey, hey, I don't you don't know? Oh ya, I got Mike, I gotta go in. I got you know, I got hand on some miness like going into eighty four. I'm up there in front of the heaters. Oh yo, I'm looking at the wind out of practice. Y'all lied to

Hey want some toes and the fingertificatet cold? Bad boy, it's boy, you can got nothing but hell to deal.

With after that. Hey, hey there, Hey, I'll go today. Hey, Mike, I think somethingbody something didn't agree with me today. Man, I need to go on there and the yeah, yeah, baby, bad man, bad damn.

I sure hold. Don't nobody come in here and see me standing in front of this heat, oh Joe. In the last home game at.

Folsom Field, in front of the home crowd, Travis Hunter and Shador Sanders.

And put on a show.

As they did, Colorado demolished Oklahoma State fifty two to nothing to keep their slim playoff hopes alive. Prime told Colorado going into respond after the thirty seven to twenty one los. The Buffalos didn't just respond, they obliterated the opposition. It was Colorado's longest largest margin of victory since beating the Gophers the Minnesota Gophers fifty eight to nothing in

Shador, excuse me?

Travis Hunter ten catches a buck, sixteen three touchdowns, a pick, two plass breakups they had, Yeah, Travis.

Was you know you're doing?

Was thirty one or forty one four thirty eight five touchdowns, one an exception.

Webster Wester excuse me?

Had eleven catches a buck seventy five two touchdowns. Travis Hunter ten catches one to sixteen three touchdowns. I think his name is Will Shepherd had six catches for sixty seven yards. I like this because this is what Prime knew. Prime knew that the boys in State was going to try to give gent as many carriages as he can handle and let him try to get as many yard as he can.

And he says, I'm not gonna let you.

I'm not gonna just get up the big and take my dog, call my dogs off traves, stay out there because I want them to. I want them to let him know just how great you are? Can I interest you in ten four bucks, sixteen and three touchdowns? Can I interest you on a pick? Can I interest you in two pass? Breakup? Can I interest y'all?

In that?

He left no doubt, no doubt that he's going to win the Heisman Trophy in December? What is that the first week in December? So this next Saturday, isn't it? It's normally the first Saturday. It's normally the first Saturday in December, December fourteenth. They backed it up, Okay, he said, oh yeah, because you know they got they got conference play now?

Oh yo, right.

Yeah, conference or conference play would be nothing like next weekend. Yeah, there's no question in my mind he's the best college player. Look and there's nothing Look asking gent has had an unbelievable season two thousand, What is he at two thousand? And is he at two thousand and twenty? Was it

Yeah, two eight eight.

So we has he has twenty two hundred and eighty eight yards, and he has the conference championship next week, right, Okay, So Barry's twenty six, twenty five, twenty six, twenty eight, so he's about what three hundred and fifty three hundred and forty something yards three thirty four three. But I love what I saw from Colora three uh mad, oh joe,

So now they have to they have to rely on two or three teams to lose. Iowa, if I'm not mistaken, is it Iowa Iowa State?

I think it's Alowa State.

Yeah, so hopefully, hopefully everything goes in their favor and they make it, make it to the playoffs.

I think they can. They can.

They can call some hell. Now, they can call some hell and cast some hav it depending on who they matched up with. So you know it's here, here's the hope, and they do make it.

Yeah, he could, he could easily, But how many games? If he played twelve thirteen? He played twelve games. He's played twelve games. Uh, so he's already played one more game. I don't think he's getting three forty. Who did they play? Who did they play it? Okay? Yeah, and he's gonna play in the college They gotta go play a game in the college football playoffs, and they're gonna give you as many carre as he need because I can see that.

But who could it possibly be?

How did Colorado State? And what's beat the brakes up there? Yeah? Yeah, so they're guaranteed at least two more games. But Joe and so he's probably gonna need he's gonna need three hundred and forty yards in two games, and they haven't been very many games this year that he's gotten held under one hundred and seventy yards. And I think this

They're gonna remember him from ever.

You can make the case he's the greatest Colleague Colorado player ever. I mean Cordell Rushaan Salam Brian Byron Rizzle White, he was a chief, he was a Supreme Court justice. He went there. But it's hard. They had west Brook, They've had some great defending. You know, they had Alfred Williams, and they have Hudson, and they had a lot of different Eric b Enemy, J. J. Flanagan, They've had some guys, but it's gonna be hard to say that they're better,

I mean I might remote that, No, because if I turn that on, I'm and be looking to my left.

Don't worry about it, but you do it through the ball exception. Well, today thirty four forty eight said he broke his own record.

He had the most touchdown passes in a single season. Up that. Now, what's he at now? Like thirty four?

Uh? He most passing yards in a single season. I think he broke Coy Deptmer's record back in the mid nineties when he's playing for Rick Neuheiseel.

Yeah, he said.

An all time single season passing record and previous record with thirty five hundred and twenty seven yards set by Coorey Detmer with another game to play, so he has an opportunity to move that.

Even for the O Joe Travis Hunter he had already had.

He was the Heisman front runner and today was his most impressive game of his career, a three touchdown performance, a won, an exception, a couple of pans breakup. Hunter had ten catches for one hundred and sixteen yards three touchdowns, his fourth interception on the caason with the regular season in the stat book Offensively, he had ninety two receptions eleven hundred and fifty two yards, fourteen receiving touchdowns, one

Nobody not even close.

Huh. Sudor has thirty five touchdowns this season with a chat with another game, with another game, they're gonna get a bowl game, so he has an opportunity to add to that. I mean, he's probably close to four thousand yards, isn't he.

He threw for four thirty eight.

Three four eight eight, that's where he's at now, Okay, no added, So you add three four eight eight plus four thirty eight.

Sixteen twenty six through.

Uh yeah, uh, Chador is uh seventy four yards away from four thousand. So what broth I mean for a guy that says. The only reason he was throwing good because he was at Jackson State. He proved everybody wrong. Travis Hunter wasn't gonna be able to do that either. Jackson State coach frib was good, but he was coaching at Jackson State.

You're always gonna have your doubt us, you know that. Yeah, for sure, always gonna have your dollars good motivation. Not that you need it because half us us we already self motivated anyway, but it's a little nice little fuel for the fire proof. Yeah, a few prove a few people wrong. Ain't nothing wrong with that.

But they'll moved the gold post and then say something else.

You didn't know who it is. Oh, you know, you know, you know that game they played, but it was.

A very impressive performance.

That scored twenty one in the first quarter, none in the second, seventeen in the third, fourteen in the in the fourth, and they won by the score of fifty two to Nothings your door. Sanders thirty four forty one four thirty eight five touchdowns and Travis hunterd ten for bucks sixteen three touchdowns, another pick past, break up, couple

Okay, y'all will quit.

Now let your hang around.

Nope, nope.

The Buffaloes kept their slim hopes allied for the Big Twelve. Apparents, Oh joe, they need at least two other things. Two of the three teams sitting at sixty two in the Big Twelve Arizona State and I will stay and BYU to lose Arizona State plays rival Arizona Arizona's terrible, while I will stay host Kansas State? Uh?

B WHYU host Houston?

Eyah? So they just need any two of these to lose, right, or they need all three of them?

Two or the three? Okay?

Uh what's the what's the chances? Arizona State is on the road in Arizona, but Arizona.

Real ain't too good?

Bad? Yeah, Kansas State, it's okay, but they're on the road. They're they're in aames, they're in ocle at Oowa State, and B why you host Houston?

Mhmm And the words of Florida Evans.

Oh joe, damn damn damn a candad y'all them the volume
