Hey Mike Villeini here, host of Cash The Ticket alongside my partner Jim Costa. It's really simple. Are you tired of podcast claiming there are a bunch of pro bettors when they live in their mommy's basement? Are you tired of podcast that claim they hit 80% of the games? When really, they just lose like most of us. Think Cash The Ticket's the spot for you. We're real, we're transparent, we're having a hell of a good time with it. And we sit there and we're there for the sweat with you guys. We're just trying to figure it out just like you. Follow and listen to Cash The Ticket on the free Odyssey app or wherever. You get your podcasts. This podcast is brought to you by Men's Tea Clinic. Men's Tea Clinic is the team I trust with my total wellness optimization. And so should you five DFW locations with North Frisco, El Dorado Parkway at Dallas, North Tolway now open call 972 go men's tea or visit mensteclank.com. Yeah, buddy, here we go. It's our number one of the G back nation on a back to work Wednesday for the Cowboys. It's a Rangers game day here on your home of the champs general at your service. Brought us sitting right there for more Cowboys scouting. It felt executive. He has a crusties corner coming up at 340 going to take a look at that Raven's offense for us, buddy. Thank you so much for doing that. Yeah, Lucius Alexander is in the pimp cup over there. Master control. Yeah, Vollchuk and she'll follow of course and Carter Freeman's coordinate in your video. And along with you, we are the G back nation here on one oh five three the fan. How the heck you guys doing today? Doing awesome. Great to be here. It is a great day. It's a great day. We got to go one and oh today. It's about having that type of mentality got to win the day brought us. And I know you came in here with that look and you're high. And so I'm pretty fired up about what you're going to be bringing to the day. I'm really sad that we lost woes today and RIP. What do we do? You think ESPN is doing like eulogies for loads right now? We got every information guy up there. By the way, my man shoms is throwing a potty right now. Yeah. It's a one man show now. Not to get the job. No competition. He's the athletic. I heard the athletic is his contracts up over there. Do I hear a bidding more? Yeah. Yeah, he's about to he's about to bag out. This is incredible though. So he's this is Adrian Wojnarowski, one of the greatest of all time news breakers and in the NBA and all of sport really all time bomb dropper a Saint Bonaventure alumni strong relationship to the program. He has been a fundraiser for the schools collective in recent years and 1991 graduate. And he's going to become the general manager of the Saint Bonaventure's basketball team. Are they the bunnies? What are we? I believe so. We call the bunnies the Saint Bonaventure Bonnie's their name. What would make you think that if they're not a should be what would make you think that a breaking news guy could like help you identify the right basketball players, the right coaches. He thinks it's a good writer that calls agents. We think that maybe he's got a relationship with guys and gals that kind of know how to evaluate players that maybe he could say, Hey, here's a list of guys I'm looking at or coaches. I'm looking at higher one of them to be your G and I remember hearing about this shoe guy and ego Harrison, you know, what the hell did he know? It's working out for the Mavericks. Maybe they're on something here with Woj. Maybe we end up getting shoms. Did you have it a couple of years? You know, you're speaking my language. If we want to pretend like media members have what it takes to step into a front office of a real sports team, I believe I would believe in myself, you know, that's the pro game though. The college I just this is weird. I is a different beast. I think it's that they like him. They respect him and they don't have anybody else better that would take the job. So they're like, let's take a load. Maybe his like this was pseudo celebrity amongst NBA fans will make him an effective college basketball administrator. Did we leave like a four million dollar year job to be a two hundred fifty thousand dollar year guy? I mean, I'm sorry. Maybe he's watching here a little bit, but I don't know how much money he makes at the end. Like the two on four sex and job two demanding like the quality of life for the shifters and the wojis kind of seems horrible. I mean, you've got to just be living in like constant anxiety that you're going to get scooped on a story. Like I wouldn't be able to sleep next to, you know, something breaks at two a.m. You've got to be ready to go on the call seven million a year at ESPN and he had three years left on his deal. So he's punting on, you know, 20 million or so. Okay. Let me say this. So about these information dudes, they got to the point now where they used to have to be right. Now they don't have to be right all the time. We can fake it till we make it now. I don't know if it's faking it, but you know, there's a little bit more in this back in the day. If you said something and it was wrong, that lit, that's stuck with you. Yeah. Is it the wrong or gals that are wrong? We kind of in the next news cycle, it's gone. You can just keep a job. You can kind of keep being wrong, you know, well, I mean, if that makes sense, if the job for those reasons that you guys described is so demanding that it's stressful. And now he gets to go like do something of the passionate that he's passionate about. And at what seven million a year it's possible. He has accumulated so much wealth that he doesn't have to worry about, you know, any sort of income or anything. I guess it could make a lot of sense, you know, if you're going to have a lot more fun hanging around your favorite college basketball program, but it's got to be a massive pay cut. Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. I'm again, I sound like I'm I am watching this. I'm I am watching this pocket a little bit there, but it that has to be like, and maybe you're right there, Willie, that it's such pressure that I don't want to deal with. But when you're so good at it, when it's kind of a machine, right? Like I know to talk to these guys and we had Mark Slerathon yesterday stink. And he was thinking he was talking about like he likes to meet with people and he's now got a roll of decks of coaches and you know, and and and GM's and stuff that he can call. I don't think whoa, just much of a people person that way. You know what I'm saying? It just doesn't strike me as such. I kind of feel like that though he's got a what what's the benefit? I was listening to Sean in our jam, Bobby talked this morning and what's the benefit of a team given WOGE information? What's there? What's there? He is he makes them look good in scenarios where maybe there, you know, things are weird with a particular organization, but WOGE will be the guy reporting like, no, hey, this team has the right infrastructure, you know, he can help sell the narrative for teams when they're having a dumpster fire situation going on. So by helping WOGE, he can spin all their narratives positive spin for that organization. I don't know, man. Cause to me, that's I always just wonder what the what the benefit was for somebody like that to be putting your stuff out. It's not like a you, you scratch my back. I scratch yours. Totally. Yeah. He's probably helping. He's giving information to teams about other teams. Yeah. I know he's a lot of agents a lot over there. Well, that's a dangerous thing, man. You do not want to be the guy or gal that's talking to a team and then you're telling their business to somebody else is his background, though, college basketball, like, didn't he start off? I don't know. I think it is because I know he was like super tight with Dan Hurley. He was like on the ground floor with Hurley and his development. I think he was friends with like Dan Hurley's dad. So he might have like his passion really is, I think college basketball. I think that's his fallback. Well, we will no longer have WOGE bombs. I'm sure somebody else will step up to fill the void. As long as we're starting with basketball, have you seen Luca Doncic has his cereal here? The Luca owes? Yeah, man. That's awesome. Pretty, pretty. I mean, this is, this is, I mean, Luc is living out wall Chuck's dream right now. Let's just be real about it. Yeah. He has his own, the Kelsey's are doing this as well, mixed bowls. So like being it, yeah, and they're doing the mixed bowls, but just having your own brand of cereal, it's like you're, you're not even doing the Wheaties thing. It's like, I don't even need Wheaties to get my face on this. This is my own. I am now Wheaties, you know? How we get this? Is it available now? I think they're just at the arena and the team shops. I don't think they're available at local grocers yet, but I would make that move if I was a local grocer. So I could pick up a jersey and get a box of cereal. Is that what you're saying? Yeah. And I think the, I think the little toy at the bottom, the little surprise at the bottom is a heater, you know, by the way. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I make it fun of that. But the great, the best restaurant in the world is in a soccer stadium in Denmark. The number one rated restaurant in the world is actually in a soccer stadium. That's delicious. What are they serving up over there? Oh, it's, it's stuff that it's, it's all, it's the flattery. No, but it's actually Germany, right? Yeah. It's Denmark. Oh, Denmark. Denmark. Yeah. Yeah. Is that Danes? And it's where, it's where Derek's from. Okay. A lot of ways to say that. But anyway, they're, yeah, the, it was funny because we're laughing about, I was making a joke about cereal being at the, the gift shop pro shop. Well, yeah. The biggest restaurant in the world, the number one ranked restaurant in the world is in a soccer stadium. And jokes aside, when I saw this, I looked up the nutritional facts and it's, it's fortified with hops and malted barley, like a cereal. It's a beer. Yeah. Yeah. You're real. You're ready to rock there. What do you make the, the topic of clay Thompson as a, as a starter as the season approaches? Let's get in a little bit of maps. Talk. Do you think he's going to be an actual starter? I don't. I think maybe at the start of the year, but after a while they're going to be like, wow, our defense really sucks. We got to get one of these young guys in here. Yeah. I think I'm with you at the start of the season. He's going to be starting. I saw CBS Sports put out their top 100. I think clay Thompson was 98 on the list. He just barely cracked in the top 100 and grads, one of four Mavericks that made it. But yeah, I think if he turns out to be a liability and we've seen Jason kid loves to mix and match his lineups throughout this season, I don't know. And they supposedly gave him that guarantee. That's what we heard. But I don't know that they just leave him in there if it is something that's like, man, this is hurting the team if your defense is really is bad. Yeah. And I think a lot of it too is how much of his offense is outweighing the poor defensively. Let's not forget how much they were missing guys who could knock down shots when it mattered most in the finals, right? So to me, that is what they were like, hey, we will sacrifice a little bit of defense for guys who can knock it down. And so hopefully clay is still a knock it down guy. So he is able to make up for the fact that he's no longer an ace defender for for a defense. But like you said, well, Chuck, you do have Jason cute who's willing to move things around. And you have some other guys that you can throw in there. So, you know, Najee Marshall being the first one that you imagine, okay, you could throw him in there and then clay coming off the bench and clay did some of that with Golden State last year. So he's been in that role before. I think you have options here, but hopefully clay is good enough offensively to where it makes up for the fact that, yeah, he's probably going to be a little bit more of a liability than anything. I look at between. Yeah, him, Luca, Kyrie, I want two or those three on the court at all times. And if we're down the 15 fourth quarter, we're putting all three of them out there trying to spread the hell out of the floor and, you know, make her run. And I trust Jason kid to configure the right way to rotate that. Yeah. Yeah. And we get so caught up into the who's starting, but it's really who's finishing these games, you know, and that is totally case by case, night by night. What do you need in that moment? And so I think, I think they've built it in a way to where you have options here. You're not going to be pigeonholed and you're just having to lean on clay Thompson when he's getting blown by in a situation where you need some defense. Boom. Here's Najee Marshall. Cannot wait to be talking maps here with you throughout the season. I think they have a chance to really light it up early and go on a great run. Well, the Cowboys still favored here against the Ravens, Baltimore's favored by a point and a half now here on ESPN. I see the betters have done the right thing here. It seemed like a gift with the Cowboys favor just, you know, we're, we're heading for one and two here, you know, this, this, this, this, uh, Brian's going to tell you, you know, but, um, I guess there's a chance if you can score, right? The Ravens defense isn't great, but I think you're going up against a team that's going to be physical and run the hell out of the football. I can't imagine the Cowboys will have any sort of answer for Lamar Jackson midweek here that's my thought. Am I too pessimistic? What do you say? No. I don't think you're being too pessimistic. I think they've got to prove it and how you're dealing with Mazzi's left, Jordan Phillips is on IR. You're bringing back Carlos Watkins, by the way, I'm sorry, back tightness. Yes. That's a great sign. At least Jake Ferguson's back practicing. You're going to have to, to me, this is about like, what can the Cowboys offense do? You're going to need to be able to put up points on the right side of that offensive line. Uh, last week against the Raiders looked like they got exposed a little bit. Maybe the pass rush is a little bit better, but if I'm Baltimore, it's like, I'm lying it up and running. Right. Until you prove you can stop it. So I'm very, very nervous and Baltimore's desperate. I, I think I'm leaning it a one and two star, but then luckily you've got to get right game against the Giants just a few days later. Yeah. Yeah. Thursday game against the Giants get you back to two and two and, you know, everything's not going to be lost here, sitting at one and two and, you know, who knows, but we need to see this Cowboys offense go execute now. We're starting to come up with what three games in a row and you, you know, the narrative will shift from the number one scoring offense last year to what really is this offense. Is it average? Is it below average? You know, the, the, the Ravens have given up points in their two games. Um, and if you can't score against them, at least in the mid twenties, you know, I think maybe the buzzards might start circling around this, uh, around this season at, you know, that point. Uh, all righty. Uh, what else you got on that chief? Well, I don't have anything on that, but we do have to address one thing. Looks like we got, uh, we got sacked. Oh, what happened on the Luca Loops. Oh, no, I wanted it so bad. Yeah. That'd be such a true report there, but, uh, no, they, they didn't, they sacked you. Yeah. Hey, listen to happens to the best of us. I didn't think I could get at that anymore. We're the idiots, not you. You're supposed to be able to control this. We try not to perpetuate ball sacks here in the G back nation, but from time to time, we step in those booby traps and, uh, and this one was disguised well from Lee gone hoop, not Legion hoops. Uh, so the league on, but they threw in the breaking. I mean, they painted the perfect picture that doesn't even look like an AI cereal box. That thing looks straight out of trusted maps accounts of mine that we're sharing. Yeah. Yeah. So we're at Dallas Mav's PR. Yeah. So it was like they were really setting the table there for guys like us to get the ball sacks. He's getting better every day. Nice job, guys. Yeah. So what's the win there? You get the engagement. You get a check from Twitter. Yeah. That's what that game's all about. We'll play for the love of the game there as well. Absolutely. Just knowing that somewhere out there, a guy like Dawson is going to be spouting something into a microphone that's close to count on that somewhere that guy's tiger fist pump and right now Rangers, uh, winners last night, a 13 to eight Bradford against, uh, as at Francis tonight, a Valdi was bad. Okay. Thursday's game, you're going to get rocker though and Friday against the Mariners. You have to go home. So we'll live it up speaking of just playing for the love of the game right now. That's all the Rangers have to look forward to and we're going to enjoy it while we try to get back to 500. Hey, there's still the champs till further notice, okay, uh, we'll check where we going next before the G bag of the day. Yeah, let's evaluate some of the surprise trends in the NFL through two weeks. We're going to reel or not on that. That's next in the nation. Hey, Mike Vlinny here host a cash to ticket alongside my partner, Jim Costa. It's really simple. Are you tired of podcast claiming there are a bunch of pro betters when they live in their mommy's basement? Are you tired of podcast that claim they had 80% of the games when really they just lose like most of us think cash to tickets, the spot for you. We're real. We're transparent. We're having a hell of a good time with it. And we sit there and we're there for the sweat with you guys. We're just trying to figure it out just like you following listen to cash the ticket on the free Odyssey app or wherever you get your podcasts. Shoot. Yeah, we're eight minutes from the G bag of the day segment is brought to you by the Frankles. Life's unpredictable acts that it's happened. So in Frankle, the go to attorneys for car and truck wrecks in DFW, if you're a loved one's been in an accident, contact the Frankles for a free consultation two one four or eight one seven three, three, three, three, three, three, three, three jumped to Frankle firm dot com. It's also brought you my cars for kids donate today cars for kids dot org. Here's waltchuck. Some sports. Thank you very much. General. We do have a fun piece on the athletic evaluating or ESPN, excuse me, evaluating surprise trends for every team or these real or not will focus on the Cowboys, the Ravens and the rest of the NFCs. But the Cowboys trend is one we actually discussed yesterday and the early surprise is the Cowboys offense is just not generating many big plays and Todd Archer wrote about besides CD lamb, who's providing them through two games. Lamb has two of the Cowboys four plays of 20 yards or more. He has two of the three runs of 10 yards or more produced by the offense and explosive places we know can lead to quick points and they've had three drives of 10 plays or more this year. And that's something that they're going to have to correct now. Maybe Baltimore is a team that can help open this up because Baltimore surprise early in the season is they rank last dead last and passing defense. They have allowed the most passing yards in the NFL with 514 through two weeks. That is a major surprise considering this is essentially the same secondary that finished sixth against the past last season. They've got all pro safety Kyle Hamilton and John Harbaugh said, I think the secondary overalls on track, but we just haven't been playing consistent. So this could be maybe a get right game for CD lamb, Jake Ferguson, hopefully trending towards playing was at practice today. Maybe you get Brandon cooks going and Tolbert carry over the momentum. But you've got a team that is not generating big plays in the Cowboys and the team that's giving up the most passing yards in the sport in the Ravens through two weeks. Yeah. I mean, that's it. That would be just what the doctor ordered, man. That's what you want. And hopefully, hopefully they'll be able to, because I think part of the problem when you playing the Ravens is they're going to, they're going to try and make you one dimensional. They've been stopping like running backs aren't really getting going versus these guys. So you're going to throw in the ball on them. Yeah. That's one of those things that like, man, they're playing damn good run defense. Why do you need to? Why run the ball? If Gardner mentioned could be 30 for 38 in a game. Yeah. That's sometimes you get that weird stat like, you know, and I need to, I am going to watch them tonight, but I'm interested to see if it's really their stopping teams or it's not worth it trying to run the ball against them because the rest of your temps, yeah, matters, right? Because sometimes you get in these modes where it just, it's like, man, we can make seven eight yards of shot throwing the ball in these cats. Do I run it? You know, yeah. Well, especially when they're averaging to running backs under three yards per carry allowed. Yeah. So I mean, they're, they're, what's the one with the number is on that? I mean, the number of carries, the number of passes. Yeah. I don't know. I mean, you had the, the, the, the Raiders were playing from behind majority of that game there. So they were probably throwing the heck out of the ball. I know Gardner mentioned through for plenty of yards. So, um, I mean, you played against Pat Mahomes and then you played with a lead. And so how much of the, were you giving up plays in the passing game? Cause you're up by double digits with like less than a quarter to go and you're giving crap up that maybe you wouldn't, I don't know, but you're not, I don't think you're going to be able to run on these dudes and now all of a sudden you're asking that to again bail you out of probably plenty of certain long situations. And I don't trust anybody other than CD that hopefully Ferguson's playing. Aren't these good secondary players though? I mean, looking at, that's what's so surprising about it. Well, it's a transitional year for the Ravens defense. They've lost a ton. They lost their defensive coordinator. They lost their defensive line coach. They probably lost plenty of other coaches and then, you know, they've lost a couple of players as well. It's a first year defensive coordinator in Zach or who is a local guy from DeSoto and the university, North Texas, former linebacker of theirs. Ponents are 50 of six, 50 for 66, throwing the ball against these guys for 514 yards. Yeah. They've, they've the worst passing defense and yeah, 30, 37 rushing attempts total for 99 yards. So 66 passes to 37 runs. Right. Yeah. That's where you're at. Right. Yeah. I mean, hey, that, that's your strategy for the Cowboys right now you, you're struggling to run the football anyway. So that, that's a debt benefits, if I, if I was, if I was the Ravens, then the Cowboys can think about this too. If I was, if I was playing the Ravens, I would play as heavy a box as you can play in that football game and dare this. And I will talk about that at 340 today. Yeah. And if I was the Ravens, I would have the lightest box possible. I would play. I would play. Yeah. I would play dime the whole game and dare you to run the ball. Ideally, if you're the Cowboys, I'm Darren Lamar to beat me with his arm. I think that's the biggest difference in the Cowboys to run the ball. I think that might be the difference in this year's Cowboys compared to the last three years is the running game has become so atrocious that even the worst coaches who aren't paying attention and stuck in their ways will be like, holy crap, we don't have to do anything to stop this run game. All we have to do is worry about the past. And as that, you know, I, I believe is probably going viral around coaching offices right now. It's going to put Dak in probably the worst situation he's ever faced in his career with only CD lamb fighting for him. I know Jake Ferguson is back, but he's got to show it to me. Now the rest of the division is also at least two of your divisional opponents struggling on defense. The early surprise for the Giants is just how bad they've been against the run. They're allowing a 163 rushing yards per game. That's bottom 10 in the league coach day ball saying that's fundamental tackling and discipline gap control. Shane Bowen, their new defensive coordinator. Not happy about it. Got Dexter Lawrence, of course, along that defensive line last year, they were pretty decent along that front, but they can't stop the run. Eagles can't generate a pass rush. They make the trade for Bryce Huff. They give up a son retic. They give Huff a big time deal. They've drafted Nolan Smith, Jalen Carter, Jalen Carter right now has actually generated more pressures than Bryce Huff, who is the pass rushing specialist that they traded for and gave the three or $51 million deal. So that was a storyline Monday night. So you need to generate a pass rush. You're not able to do so. Kirk coat chains goes ahead and picks you apart week one. We saw it with Jordan Love and the Packers. I wasn't really blown away by their defense either. She got the Giants. You can't stop the run yet. The Eagles, you can't rush the passer. And then for the commanders, the early surprises, you got these old dudes, Austin Eckler and Zachert's coming in here and they've actually been pretty productive. He got earths who's adding 90 yards receiving at Echler, who's getting 99 yards receiving last week. And they've been more effective than Terry McClellan, who should be their number one offensive weapon right now through two games. I mean, for as bad as it is around the Cowboys, there's still a good chance of winning the division somehow. I don't know what the winning team's going to have. Is it nine wins? I mean, we said before the season, the winner of this division has at most probably 10 wins. We were down on the Cowboys and on the Eagles and then not given the Giants or commanders much of a chance. I mean, the Eagles also can't stop the run. I mean, nobody in the division can. Eagles are giving up six and a half yards a carry. Giants over five yards a carry. Cowboys four point nine and then commanders four point six, but yeah, the Eagles right now can't stop the run and they can't generate pressure. That's bad for. So I mean, it'll be tough sledding there for Dick Van Gio and company. Thank you. We'll check. Thank you. Time now for the G bag of the day into the pimp cup. Here's Lucius. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. All right. G bag of the day right here. This is day two for our guy, two icy juice cuz two icy juice cuz that's two eyes and icy right there. Double dose of ice two Z's to on that cuz man, come on now. You thinking the head brought us. All right. All right. He has a Cowboys freestyle for the Cowboys organization. Here we go. Hey, I hope you know Dallas Cowboys, y'all is done. I've been watching y'all since I was young than a bitch and I've just been looking dumb. I hope you know, I don't even know why the team is stacked cuz New Orleans came in there and straight put the belt to the ass. I hope you know, I won't even go and complain. But how y'all have a whole all season and come out looking exactly the same. I hope you know, y'all should be worried at this point, if it ain't the team of the coaches, what is it? The damn jerseys. I hope you know, the defense look like Dookie. Every player on the other team, the first have got the ball and start booking. I hope you know, I can't even be mad, dawg. I don't came to the realization that losing is just y'all. Realization. I hope you know, Mike, your playbook is weak. I am so tired of seeing these lame ass jet sweeps. I hope you know, I can tell y'all why y'all suck. Cuz in the crunch time, don't none of y'all drop nuts. I hope the worst. This is exactly the same team from Green Bay. I hope you know, I was looking for Micah to even play. I hope you know, I'm done. Every season is a repeat. And I hope you know, I'm rooting for y'all ugly ass next week. Stupid bitch. I don't care until realization. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Should be some relationship. Yeah. That's what your girls say. Well, she don't spy on you. She don't want all the way through your stuff. You know what? You know what? I find funny. I came to the realization that, oh man, I'm getting cooked. All right. Let's see. Florida State and Memphis, that game was over the weekend Saturday, Florida State is looking bad out there, right? Yeah. They're looking real bad. They got beat at home too, huh? Yes they did. Water guns, super-soakers didn't help them. They paid for that game? Yeah. About 1.4 million. Oh man. It's a bad look, Florida State. The refs had to ask the Florida State ban to chill though because apparently the ban has more heart than the players. Bob's his teammate for doing anything for the team. And oh by the way, he's a fantastic looking prospect that you saw right there going up against a very good corner in federal Cyprus. Seth Handigan just puts him right on it. It means that he's playing when Memphis is in their own magical nation. Florida State ban is the sees playing when the offense is in formation. Florida State ban just got scolded. They got louder. They got fired up. Let's see if they still left. Well they need to do something because right now the defense is up against it. That's when your parents tell you to calm down and just get louder. Yeah. I've never done that but I know what you mean. Yeah. They turned it up right there. They did. Good for them. Yeah. They turned it up. That's what I'm saying. The ban got more heart. The ban conductor was like, who is he talking to? Yeah. He didn't even turn and look at the field. Did you see this wind? He just raised his hands and just went get out. Look like Bugs Bunny. Yeah. Turn it up. Yeah. Let's see what else we got for your boys. Well they did get louder too though. They did. They turned it up. They turned it up. They got some lungs in there in Florida. I'll tell you what, hey Stevie, talk to all. This lady right here, by the way, shout out to all the motorcycle riders. Shout out to all the motorcycle riders. I used to be one. I sold mine a long time ago because you can't trust anybody anymore and my brother looked at me. You know your brother knows you. Yeah. You know you jump over the creek with him, he knows your limitations. He does. My brother looked at me and said, hey you know you don't drop it right. Yeah. Yeah. Were you a non-helmet guy Lucius? No, no. All the safety stuff. He's always been a helmet guy. He's always been a helmet guy. I sold that thing. I sold that thing. Anyway, we got a lady right here who's not a fan of motorcycles and how loud they are. I don't think you're doing something right, Janet, tell you. What are you doing, assaulting my female Janet, tell you what your motorcycle is. You don't need to grab any effect on anybody, mine and everybody else's. Really? You think you're allowed to do that, you're violently assaulting people. Is that true? How's that? No. Maybe because you're at home, because you have this on, you don't hear it. The ramp of your motor is cutting. Really? It's cutting to the nervous system, it's damaging, but you might not hear it or not because you have those things on. Really? I don't have nothing on. And your helmet I'm talking about. Oh. I don't know what that is. We don't like it. You like it? Oh wow. Put her next to see right there. Can I sit on top of your bike? Yes. I'm not in the club. Can I sit on top of your bike? Can you rev it? Wow. Wow. Yeah, boy, those good old days. Everything was consensual, though. No ditty. No ditty. No ditty. No ditty. Last one right here. Let's go to Marshall, Marshall University, their football coach, Charles Huff and brothers from Detroit. Detroit. What up, though? I think he's from Detroit, if not still, shout out to Detroit. He has an offer for Ohio State players that they probably will refuse. I'd love to have some of those guys from Ohio State too. If they want to transfer on down, we've got a Tudor's Biscuit NIL, all you can eat. So if any of those guys that run really, really fast at Ohio State like Tudor's Biscuits, I promise you, all you can eat all day if you transfer here. But yeah. Come on down for the all you can eat biscuits. Yeah, if you don't know what that coach Charles Huff looks like, go ahead and Google that man up. I'm pretty sure he knows about some damn good biscuits, I'll tell you what. Lucius is from Dittin, Maryland. Oh hell. Yeah, he's 41 years old. Wait, what did I get that? You don't want to tell me to worry about it. Yeah. I don't even worry about it. There's a running back coach in Alabama at one time. That's weed. I don't even know. Wow, you even got that fact from my look that I said, oh, Michigan, okay. Detroit. Totally wrong. Look at my games from Detroit. Take these glasses back. Are you eating your Luca Loops? Yeah. Yeah. There you go. Dossa, I took that off of you right on the off of you. That's good teamwork. Appreciate you. Yeah, man. You know what we do. Is it the champ freestyle the two icy juice cuz is it Florida state out of a realization the Seminoles band needed a chill. They were throwing a temper chant. They were throwing it through the power of music. Yeah. The ladies is not a fan of the motorbike going full Karen like a meth doubt Karen though. How do you know the tone of her voice? Yeah. Tells you. Tells you. No, mostly gums. I don't want to profile, but you know, is that Portland coming through? Yeah. Marshall University coach Charles Hoff recruiting those Ohio state players. If you're guys talking like that with NIL deals, just get ready for 0 and 12, right? Yeah. He's actually had. He's had a pretty good run there. He's 23 and 18. But he's one of the, he's known as one of the top recruiters in the country. Oh, that guy that was just said, we've got the biscuits. Yeah. He's one of the top. I'm the Dean of Alabama. If I'm the Dean, I'm tapping you on the shoulder. Hey, man. We want some of these kids, actually. Let's not do the biscuit thing. Those angles. Kill the biscuits. S play on the biscuits. Biscuits code for. Biscuits are good. Hey, I'm about to give you the biscuit menu coming up here in a minute. I'm gonna be back on the biscuit training. Why I am voting for coach Huff. How about you, chief? Yeah. Same here. I'll turn my mic off early. Sorry. The lady not a fan of the motorcycles. We'll check. I'm going to go with the cowboy route, Brian, Florida State Band, buy a score to one, two, one, two, one, and your new G back the day champion, it's coach Charles Huff of Marshall. Okay. Chief, where are we going next? College football. Darty. Pick your biscuit and prepare yourselves for an SEC revenge game next year in the nation. Yeah, buddy. Welcome back. It's the G back nation here on 105 three, the fan and NFL news. Today's coming up at three o'clock. Here's the chief. Yes, sir. Thank you very much. Welcome to your college football. Darty here in the G bag nation. Now we have a handful of things to address here. I've been introduced to someone in the world of college football that I'm pretty fired up to watch against old Carter's team on Saturday. We got ourselves a big one. I saw our guy Danny Canell letting everyone know that the strength of schedule to this point, you have teams like Ohio State, Tennessee, Ole Miss, Utah and Oklahoma, who are all top 15 teams, but have nothing in the way of strength of schedule to this point. Tennessee, 122nd in strength of schedule to this point, Oklahoma is 100th. So now you're finally going to get to see them each play respectable opponent, Tennessee and Oklahoma. This is going to be very, very exciting and there's lots of reasons why, but you have Josh Hypel, the head coach for Tennessee, who was a quarterback at OU, an additional championship there. Yup. Dang right. He's an OU legend and then he was the play caller there for some years under Bob Stoops before being bleep canned and now a decade later, he returns with a vengeance and this is for the first time since the firing, he's going to return to Norman and that's again where he's a sooner's legend, but he's going to take these volunteers to Norman for OU who's, I mean, this is their first conference game as a member of the SEC. It is. This is historical. We're about to find out about Carter Freeman's Oklahoma Sooners and I know Carter knows this, but over the next two months, they've got eight games, including five top seven match ups. You've got Tennessee starting this week, you've got the number one long horns, the number five Ole Miss Rebels, the number seven Missouri Tigers, the number four Alabama Crimson Tide and as of right now, the number 16 LSU Tigers on that schedule. That is a gauntlet. That's a beating. That's an absolute beating and OU is feeling good in the comment section of different places on the internet about their defense and their run defense. But my goodness, this Dylan Sampson, Sampson is the running back for Tennessee. This is a guy who is an absolute lightning rod. He's been unstoppable. He's played seven quarters of football. He's got nine touchdowns. He's got facing almost 500 yards of offense and he's carried the ball 45 times. This dude is the real deal. And I think with Tennessee, of course, their quarterback is the one Nico who's getting a lot of the conversation, which makes a ton of sense. He's a big time recruit and a big time player at the most important position. But Tennessee, like a couple of years ago with Hendon Hooker when they were super nasty, high flying, Jalen Hyatt, they're pushing the ball down the field, a lot of good talent. And they still have some of that, but now they're running a lot more like two tight-end stuff. They're trying to be more physical. And so they have, they're just trying to have the ability because if you're Tennessee and you're trying to beat the Georgia's and you're trying to beat the Alabama's and stuff, at some point, you got to be able to have some type of physical backbone. It's not always going to work that you're just going air on, on these teams. And so do you have like sort of a counter punch and Tennessee sort of developing that now? And I'm excited to see how this OU matchup goes, man. I think there's a ton of questions about OU at this point. Yes. I agree. Has anybody seen Tennessee play? I've seen some of Tennessee. Do they still play with pace because they were a very much get, get up to the line. It's not nearly as much as it was. I imagine with tight ends and running backs and all that stuff that they're trying to play, maybe a little bit more of a physical game that they're not playing with pace because they were a no huddle, get to the line, get to a lot of pressure. Yeah, they're, they're offensive lineman or pukin left and right. Yeah. They were moving so fast. Our G back of the day champion is Marshall's head coach, coach Hough, who's not from Detroit, but if you look at him and squint, you'll think this guy's probably from Detroit. Well, he has, he's giving you, he's giving you the, we got the biscuit menu from, from all tutors. They have 19 different biscuit options for you there. And I believe there are one trick pony, which is really like the, the, where you go, you know they're going to dominate at this. If all you do is biscuits, yours are going to be top notch. Hooters biscuit world is how many ways can you do this? You know, I could see sausage in the gravy, no sausage in the gravy, maybe different kinds of gravy. You got the, I think you could do with the, the, the various proteins and stuff like that. Yeah. These are like brisket sand. Oh, these are biscuit sandwich. Yeah. You don't get to name tutors for nothing. That's right. You got to have something hardy in there. Yeah. Yeah. Man, like the thundering herd biscuit, you could get the sausage, potato, egg and cheese. They have the rocket, which is going to be steak, egg, cheese and potato. You get the golden eagle. Man, I'm just, I'm usually disappointed in a morning steak. They're very rarely done right. I like the dinner steak is amen to that. Yeah. Yeah. If you're doing steak and eggs at home, you can go ahead and say this might be extremely dominant. Yeah. Breakfast steak's not going to be a fancy cut. Chicken frosting. I was saying there scrambled eggs would enjoy it. You've never had any time she's been to the waffle house, she had steak and eggs at the waffle house. Yeah. I wouldn't order it. I wouldn't even think that it might be good. Okay. Are you telling me I'd be wrong? I just just give it a go. Okay. It's one, one time in your life walk in there and have a good attitude. He's not drinking anymore. Yeah. That just wanted to say. If you were hammered in like four in the morning, you would love it. You would love there. You would love the steak and eggs at the waffle house. You're putting a big leg on these two, man. Yeah. Some good biscuits. And I'll tell you what, Luches, you bring up chicken fried steak. They should make it a 20th item on their menu here. They're their biscuit menu and have a chicken fried steak biscuit. Yeah. With a gravy on it. Yeah. Absolutely. I bet you had apple biscuit with the fried apples on there. That's probably a good apple bubble biscuit. Yeah. They have an apple biscuit with fried apples. I was going to mention it. It's like I've never heard of them. I've never heard of that. So they sell the fried apples at a cracker barrel. You can get them in the jar and those things are delicious. Fried apples, man. I didn't even know that was, I didn't know that was much of a thing. Is that how such you are that? Yeah. They're like cinnamon apples, basically. Mason jar. Yeah. Hey, so we'll check. You just would go and get open. My grandparents loved them. I mean, you'd get like a spoon and just straight out of the mason jar there. I would. Yeah. As a kid, like anytime I went over my grandparents, they usually would have them. And then sometimes like my grandma would just give them to us for breakfast. You know, they, they was delicious. Yeah. They also have, what do you guys think about this one? The peppy. They got the pepperoni and melted cheese right there in a biscuit. That could be good. Like a lunchtime biscuit? I love that. Yeah. But, and I don't know. Yeah. I don't know if this is like an all day biscuit place where you can feel comfortable, like no matter what time of day it is, if you want to biscuit, tutors has got you, but you'd like to think, yeah, I would, I mean, from time to time, you want to breakfast biscuit for dinner? I'll tell you this right now. If McDonald's had bacon, egg and cheese biscuits available 24/7, I think they try to do that. Then COVID hit and it ruined it all. I don't know what they did, but we need to egg McMuffin around the clock, dude. You're right. Yeah. You're right. It's magical. All these look pretty, pretty dang good here, but there is a chicken fried steak size hole that's missing on this biscuit menu. So there's just, there's no tutors anywhere near us. I mean, no, this is the one, this is the one, one to one. This is the cross one. Yeah. Yeah. That's true. Yeah. What stage is marginal? Is that West Virginia? West Virginia. Huntington, West Virginia. Can they do any barbecue there? Is there like a brisket biscuit? Oh, man. I would give that a go. Well, let's see. Do they have the, I wonder, no, I don't see a, they have a minor. Oh, they have a mountaineer. They have the mountaineer biscuit, which is country ham potato egg and cheese. So it sounds really good. It sounds really good. I like the potato with it. Yeah. I don't like that. Oh, you don't like that? It's like a hash, two starches. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Like you slap the McDonald's hash brown into the McGritle or whatever. You told me to do that with the egg McMuffin and it was actually pretty good dominated. But maybe the biscuit. I'll tell you. I don't order that number 13. If it didn't have the potatoes in it, I say no potato. Wow. Wouldn't it make sense though that at Marshall, the mountaineer biscuit would be like spam or something? Something very good. Yeah. Shots fired. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'd be on that alone. All right. We'll get you out of here. We'll get you out of here with Dion Sanders having a fight about rain in his press conference today. Oh, no. Hey, coach, with potential rain in the forecast for Saturday, we got rain. That forecast you got just changed this morning. No. Let me see. It ain't say rain on mine. All darn rain. Who do you use straight up? I just saw it from a local meteorologist this morning. There you go. A meteorologist. I think I got 51 69. This joke has been accurate. Anybody else got re-jores? Either way. There is rain on there. No, we're not going to say that he is rain. I'm one of those good weather man. When you say 60%, I say 40% chance that meteorologist that I respect highly said that there's a pretty good chance of rain on Saturday 30% OK, I don't know which one I got. I mean, you need to check mine. OK. Hey, I've been in that situation myself. Yeah. Where the app let me down. Oh, really? I'm feeling Dion's pain on this one. Do you use the default weather app or do you download like the Weather Channel app? That's what I did on my phone. And it's good. I'll tell you what, man, there's a lot of these colleges and stuff because of what happens at the stadium. You know, with getting people in and out because of severe weather, you're looking at what like airplanes use, like airports use for some of those Dopplers and stuff at some of those some of those college campuses to make sure that they don't want to get sued for something happening, you know, with the weather and, you know, they're not worn in the people. But yeah, they've got some of these some of these colleges have some really seriously good weather stuff. The catalysts for the Doppler radar, by the way, 1985 flight, 191 delta. It's something with those 191s went down that rabbit hole, wind shear, wind shear got him. Yeah, threw it down on 114 out of nowhere. It's coming down like to land at DFW all of a sudden, wind shear turfed it. Yeah. Like 11 people survived. Yeah. We're like, we probably need Doppler in every airport. Airport. Yeah. Wow, dude. I didn't even know that. Right. It's crazy. It was like August. Wasn't it Dawson? What's he going to give it to me? Dude, I'm terrified of these freaking planes. Yeah. One hundred percent. That Vegas thing shook me up. The fly around a couple of times. Yeah. They're going down to fly around as much as it was the left wing nearly touching the ground because the wind said, no, you're not landing here today. You hit some of those airports like in the summertime like Vegas and Phoenix. Yeah. That heat that throws you around like that heat and wind. Yeah. Yeah. No shot. One of the days that there's 114 running backs in the nation that have more rushing yards individually than the entire Florida State football team does. They have 156 rushing yards on the season. So they're rock struggling in a huge way. That guy's going to have to eat that poo, man. I mean, ultimately, to lift the curse, eat that poo better eat the poop. Yeah. I think you have to get a path at that point or you're inviting this guy doesn't complete chaos. There never will be the Bartman of your fan base. Nobody wants that. You're looking at death threats, you know? Yeah. You're going to make fun of him forever. Eat the poo. NFL news today coming up next. We'll check.
