00:00Here's the tempo. You ready? You think so? Washington and Iowa. Wow. No tempo. No tempo.

00:09I will say this. A lot of people like Iowa to bounce back from last week against the

00:12Buckeyes. Will Rogers made me a believer. I was dead wrong in terms of Michigan but

00:16he is completing 73% of his passes. Twelve touchdowns, one interception. The kid lit

00:22it up against a very good, I believe, Michigan defense for the most part. Here's the other

00:26thing too. 110 passing yards by Caden McNamara. Last week I was still with Tim Lester. Only

00:31has one passing touchdown against FBS opponents. I can't back Iowa in any capacity even though

00:38they're at home, Kev. Give me Washington. Zag on you. Last week you said Will Rogers

00:42was a money burner and a human turnover machine and now you're sold on him. It's got one interception.

00:48It's playing well. Gotta look Hawkeyes. He throws multiple picks today there. That's

00:52a full zag on you. Can I just ask you some trivia fun facts? Sure. Caden McNamara's

00:55last passing touchdown against a Power Four team is who and when? He was, had to be wearing

01:01a Michigan uniform. He was wearing a Michigan uniform. Illinois. It was against Iowa. Iowa.

01:06The team he plays for in the 2021 Big Ten title game. Caleb Johnson though has been

01:12incredibly impressive. Second leading rusher in the country. Still 15 carries for 86 yards

01:17and a score last week against a really stout Ohio State front. Washington, one of six FBS

01:23teams that ranks top 10 in scoring defense and total defense as well. Still think it's

01:29a big day for Johnson on the ground against the Huskies. I'm taking a chance here because

01:34these are in order, but I think I know the game. It's gotta be Kentucky Vanderbilt tempo.

01:40It's possible. Yeah, it is. Is it? Yeah. Yeah, it is. Tell us why. The last four meetings

01:46in the series, 58.8 points per game and I just feel like there's some kryptonite lurking

01:53out there. So that's good. Everybody looking for an emotional letdown with Diego Pavia

01:59and Kentucky, a methodical offense. They grind out wins. But to me, this game has party over

02:0650 plus points. Now you and I lost this game because of gutless Will Levis. Because you

02:10blamed me. And I did, but now, but now I look. No, and I love you too. And we're going to be

02:18hanging out. Yeah. So we should be betting this time. Oh wow. We will be together during this.

02:23I am not betting this party. I am not betting this. No way. Vandy 58.8 points combined. I like

02:32Vandy me as well. Okay. So Vanderbilt this year, three and oh, against the spread as an underdog

02:36to outright wins, including against Virginia tech to open up the season. And of course,

02:41last week against Alabama, Diego Pavia against power for competition this year, 17 carries at

02:47least at least 56 on the ground in his low was last week against the crimson tide. Of course,

02:52Kentucky is a top 10 rushing defense, six best in the country, 78 yards per game allowed. But the

02:59reason we might see some tempo today, Vanderbilt, one of four programs nationally over in every

03:05game this year over in all five for the doors by nearly two touchdowns on average.
