00:00So, why don't we start with the game you went to?

00:05You went to Columbus to the shoe to see Ohio State spank Tennessee.

00:09Yeah.

00:10And there was 30% of that crowd, 25 to 30% from Tennessee made the long drive, wore their

00:16orange and got knocked out in the first quarter.

00:19I mean, that was a picture perfect game.

00:23First quarter by Will Howard, getting the ball down the field to Jeremiah Smith.

00:28They ran the ball effectively with both running backs.

00:30They looked re-energized.

00:31They looked pressure free.

00:33And Scott, here's the thing.

00:35I think this is the key for them in the Oregon game.

00:37They have to let Will Howard throw the ball down the field and live with the mistakes.

00:42He was four of five for 125 yards, two touchdowns against Tennessee on passes of 20 yards or

00:48more.

00:49But he also threw one interception.

00:50I can live with a mistake or two, as long as it's not a game changer, if I get the benefits

00:56of throwing the balls to those receivers.

00:59That was the most complete game they played.

01:01I thought it was better than the Indiana game that they beat the Hoosiers in Columbus.

01:06They played terrible against Michigan, but this was their best game, don't you think?

01:11Absolutely.

01:12It looked a lot when I went and saw them play Iowa, honestly.

01:14It was kind of tight at halftime.

01:17You thought maybe if Tennessee scores coming out of the third quarter that we'd get a close

01:21game.

01:22We talked about Dylan Sampson, Niko Iemaliava struggled a little bit to throw the ball down

01:27the field.

01:28Ohio State's defense looked re-energized.

01:30I don't know if they can beat Oregon.

01:33I wouldn't be surprised if they do, though, because they know they can play four quarters

01:38with these guys.

01:39It's going to be a super fun rematch in the Rose Bowl between two Big Ten teams.

01:43Yeah.

01:44I still like Oregon.

01:45I think they're unstoppable offensively.

01:48They score on anybody.

01:49I don't care who they're playing, they're going to score.

01:52We'll see if Ohio State can go belly to belly with them.

01:55They ran out of time.

01:56They screwed up the first game.

01:58I still like Oregon in the rematch.

02:00Yeah.

02:01And the key will be the lines.

02:04Oregon was able to throw the ball down the field against Ohio State in that first matchup.

02:07And hey, I hate to keep harping on that, but that's how you beat them.

02:11Show you can get the ball down the field to those receivers that opens up the running game.

02:15Both their offense and defensive lines are good.

02:18And Dylan Gabriel played well.

02:21It's going to be a fun matchup.

02:22I think it'll be another shootout.

02:24Probably hits the over.

02:25That over looks a little low for me early.

02:27But the fact that Oregon is an underdog to start, like you said in the last segment,

02:32Dan Lanning's absolutely going to harp on that up until January 1st.
