Bobby Bones
Hey, welcome to the show.
Eddie
Hit it.
Bobby Bones
We talked with Eddie about the Cowboys loss later, but we recorded that right after the game.
Eddie
I'm better now.
Bobby Bones
I don't want better. That's why we did it right after the game. So fresh there. But I don't know. It looks like the Chiefs are done, too.
Eddie
Yeah, this is a double whammy this week.
Bobby Bones
Looks like the Bengals are done. Too bad for us. We lost a lot of money, guys. I'm telling you, if we don't have teams in our little league that make the playoffs, you just keep losing money and you have no chance to gain it back. We're going to lose thousands of dollars.
Eddie
Like, how many thousands?
Bobby Bones
It just depends. It just depends what happens here. We're down 1600 right now.
Eddie
Okay. And what's the most say, like, we lose every single game from here on out? Like, just to prepare myself, please.
Bobby Bones
I don't know that.
Kevin
Yeah, that could be.
Bobby Bones
That could be whatever.
Kevin
What? Yeah, so we need the. Because the Bengals aren't going to make the playoffs.
Bobby Bones
No, they can win some games. It doesn't matter. People don't want to hear our little. Our little deal. It's like listening to somebody talking about fantasy football like nobody cares.
Eddie
I get it. But just know that it's not good.
Bobby Bones
We're down a lot.
Kevin
A lot.
Bobby Bones
Like, the Chiefs can still make the playoffs, but 12%. Yeah, the Cowboys can still make the playoffs.
Eddie
I think it's like down to 6%. Oh, it is.
Bobby Bones
It's fallen since we talked about it last.
Kevin
Wait, but they're not even in our thing.
Bobby Bones
No, I know they're not.
Eddie
But just for.
Kevin
I don't even care about your emotions anymore. I just want money.
Odoo Advertiser
Wow.
Eddie
Dude, I still haven't told my wife about this thing about the league that.
Bobby Bones
You lose thousands of dollars.
Eddie
And so, like the other night, we're always talking about just kind of like how I just feel like a loser. And she's like, why? What's wrong? And I really couldn't tell her the reason. You know, like, I started.
Bobby Bones
Why are you hiding from your wife how much money you're losing?
Eddie
Just because. Maybe we won't have to.
Bobby Bones
Maybe we won't.
Eddie
Maybe we won't have to owe that much. What if everything turns around and we just. We get money? Then I'll tell her.
Bobby Bones
The problem with that is, like, we need the bucks to go far. And they lost again to the stupid Saints.
Eddie
Stupid.
Kevin
Kidding me.
Eddie
They had that game, too.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Kevin
We should have Eddie call his wife and tell her on the phone on this.
Eddie
No, no. It's a terrible idea.
Bobby Bones
I think that's a terrible idea, too.
Eddie
Thank you.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so where do you guys want to start?
It wasn't even that interesting of a football weekend. I can say the Bengals and Bill's game by itself, in a vacuum was an awesome game. Yeah, the snow was super cool.
Eddie
Love it.
Bobby Bones
Battle of two great quarterbacks. But Burrow, man sucked at the end. Those two interceptions, that little screen. And the other was a deflection, but still.
Kevin
Yeah, and he looked awesome before that.
Eddie
The whole game.
Bobby Bones
The whole game.
Kevin
Awesome.
Bobby Bones
I thought the Bengals were going to win that.
Kevin
Me too.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it was super cool and. But it just wasn't that fun of an NFL weekend. Or maybe I'm just tired.
Eddie
I think you're tired because I think there were a lot of games.
Bobby Bones
I've lost so much. But I don't care about close games if it's not like, teams that matter.
Eddie
I know that. But still, like, you know, if you're going to sit and enjoy football, there were some pretty good games there.
Bobby Bones
Not for us. Name one.
Eddie
Bears.
IBM Advertiser
Packers.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, Bears.
Eddie
Packers.
Bobby Bones
That was one good one. Go ahead. Let's see. Don't say Steelers. Ravens. Even though it was close. Steelers suck. Ravens suck. It's two sucky teams. Both trying to not lose that division.
Eddie
Titans. Browns.
Bobby Bones
Both teams suck.
Eddie
Not a bad game, though.
Kevin
Browns. You did not want to that game.
Bobby Bones
I did watch a little bit of it. I watched all of the selection show. I watched the Indiana, Ohio State game was good. That was a good game.
Kevin
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Did you watch it?
Eddie
I did. I lost on that one.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I did too. But that's okay. I kept doubling down. Ohio State too.
Eddie
Exactly.
Bobby Bones
Like, I kept putting more money because I was like, there's no way Indiana wins this thing. Same because I had them when the game started at minus four, then it went to minus two. So I loaded up there, minus one, loaded up there. I loaded up and never got any of it back.
Eddie
I was thinking, man, there you go. This is where we turn, turn the game around.
Bobby Bones
I'm pretty sure that Kurt Signetti sold a soul to the devil.
Kevin
He might have.
Bobby Bones
This is the most dramatic, this is the greatest rise in the history of college football. Like, until this past weekend, Indiana had the worst losing percentage of any Power 4 team in college football of all time. And the fact that he came in year one and it wasn't like a ton of money was injected into the year one Indiana team. He basically brought a bunch of his JMU guys.
And won and got a quarterback. And won.
And he got a better quarterback this year. Went to Cal. Right? Isn't that what it came from?
Kevin
Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
It's wild. And it also is going to create an unfair standard to other programs because it's not like Texas Tech where they openly talk about. I watched an interview with the billionaire at Texas Tech. It was like, look, we saw where they were grandfathering in the old nil rules. We had a very short time to commit all the money to it before the new rules change with the, with the revenue sharing. He said, so we did. So we did it. We. We dedicated all this money. We basically bought this team. They can't do that moving forward because there are rules against how they did it. But that is a different version of what Indiana is. Indiana is a guy coming in, changing the culture. Worst team ever. Year one, they freaking go to the Big Ten championship. They get in the playoff.
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Year two, they're the number one team. They win the Big Ten. They've never even wild.
Kevin
And they beat Ohio State, who I thought, and a lot of people thought was the best team by far in the country.
Bobby Bones
Like I said it like, top to bottom, there's no way talent wise, if you look at stars, at least they didn't have the depth.
Kevin
No. I mean, Ohio State's got first rounders on both sides of the ball, all over the place. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Big shout out to Indiana. You're number one ranked Indiana. What sucks Is I put in this massive Georgia bet because I picked a team to win the whole thing and it was Georgia. We did it on the show. But like, it. I mean, massive for thousand bucks. That's massive, right?
Kevin
Yeah.
Eddie
Yeah. Pretty big, dude.
Bobby Bones
Okay. I don't want to get the messages. That's a massive. Massive is. What is 5,000, 10,000?
Eddie
Don't be crazy. For me, it's massive.
Odoo Advertiser
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
It's a big bet.
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I bet a thousand bucks on Georgia to win the whole thing. Well, now, because Ohio State lost and they put them at the two, that'll be who they play, which sucks. In the semis if they make it.
Kevin
Dang.
Bobby Bones
What's boring about the bracket is you got two rematches, which kind of sucks. You have Ole Miss and Tulane, which Ole Miss didn't have any problem with them earlier in the year. That's kind of boring. You also have Oklahoma, Alabama. Oklahoma beat them pretty easily.
Odoo Advertiser
Yeah.
Kevin
And neither team are exciting to watch right now.
Bobby Bones
Alabama, I think they got a raw PR deal. They had 10 guys missing for injury going into that championship game. And I think if you play an extra game, if you have earned to play the extra game, if you could beat 100 to nothing, I don't think they penalize you. The difference in BYU is BYU wasn't in the mix. They had to win to just get in the mix. Alabama was already in. So I don't think you can lose by having to play an extra game. I don't care if you beat 100 to nothing. I don't think you should be able to because nobody else played well enough to get to that point and they're in.
Kevin
So you're going to like a Notre Dame.
Bobby Bones
No, like an Ole Miss or anybody that didn't make the conference championship. And they were playing 10 guys down basically against Georgia. Yeah, they got the ball, but it's just hard to penalize somebody for winning and being forced to play more. Had Alabama not made it, they had to cancel the SC championship game. There'd be no more. Because why would anybody want to play it if it could? If it gets you eliminated from the.
Kevin
College Football Playoff, do you think eventually. Because I think eventually they'll just get rid of these games altogether.
Bobby Bones
I think they'll find a way for these games to be either a play in or part of it. A plan would be good, sort of. But you don't. But a play in is a part of it.
Kevin
But yeah, it wouldn't be like. It wouldn't have been Alabama versus Georgia, you know, What? I mean, so I guess it wouldn't be a conference championship.
Bobby Bones
That's my point. There would have to be some sort of tie into the tournament for that to happen.
Kevin
Yeah.
Eddie
Is it an honor to win the conference championship? Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Conference champions like Indiana's never been the Big Ten champion. Texas Tech I don't think has ever been the Big 12 champion. I think the last time they won a conference championship it was called like the Texas Conference, some weird conference.
Eddie
Okay. They do get a trophy and all that. Right. I mean it's cool, you know, you.
Bobby Bones
Won the conference, it's a big deal.
Eddie
And then if Kevin's saying get rid of it, like.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but most people are saying get rid of it if it's going to keep you out of the college football playoffs.
Kevin
Right. But you can still win like based on the rankings or your record the regular season. You know what I mean? So they don't play this game at the very end.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. You should win your conference championship just from how you did in the regular season.
Kevin
Right.
Bobby Bones
Like the problem is the conferences are so big now that everybody can't play everybody. So it's hard to get a true champion. But look at the ACC. They had a five team tie or a 16 tie and they have to Duke and Duke hits it and Duke wins it. Duke.
Kevin
That's crazy.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, crazy. So anyway, it was an interesting weekend. I don't like the two lane Ole Miss matchup, which is kind of boring. But they don't play this weekend, but they play next weekend. The good thing about it is football's. College football is back. We have to wait until Christmas for bowl games. Now the tournament goes. I like the tournament. I hope they add four more teams. I don't. What.
Kevin
Here, here's. We talked about this last week or the week before. The 12 team, this is where it sucks is where you get the jmu. There are two and the two lane. Yeah, there's two to get in.
Bobby Bones
I don't think they foresaw a circumstance like this.
Kevin
That's crazy.
Bobby Bones
Where the HC sucks so bad or a 5 loss ACC champion ended up being the conference winner. So they have to take the conference with the high, you know, the highest ranked conference winners.
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Turns out you got the American and the freaking Sun Belt and you got.
Kevin
And then you got the Notre Dame sitting out. Of course it was either them or Miami that was going to get in. And I understand why they're pissed, but it's just like. And I know that you got the chaos before. Like last year was a Boise State getting the home field or whatever. Was there a buy is what it was. And this year they're trying to correct that. So there's going to be correct second.
Bobby Bones
Year flaw, big time. I don't think this will ever happen again. Where two G5 schools get in.
Kevin
No way.
Bobby Bones
They never could have seen this coming. So at 16, why not?
Eddie
But someone's always gonna get pissed, right?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but the severity of how pissed.
Eddie
You get, it's interesting. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
There are levels weakens if you're fighting about a 16 or 17. Because think about the NCAA tournament. Those first four, the first four out that don't get in, you're only like irritated for like 20 minutes. And then you move on with life because you're like, dude, you didn't make the top.
Eddie
Yeah, we weren't that good anyway.
Kevin
68.
IBM Advertiser
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So the more you add to the mix, the less you can be mad if you didn't make it. Because now, dude, it's 16 teams. Like, you win some games, then it's like Texas don't lose to Florida. And you can cry because you're looking at Vanderbilt. They lost two games they didn't get in. Sucks for Vanderbilt. I know.
Eddie
I love. I love the giving James Madison a chance and Tulane and all that, but do you think they'll ever win the national championship? A school that small against these big dogs, do you think they'll ever have a real chance to win ever?
Bobby Bones
Is a tough question to ask, but I can't see them anytime in the future, the next decade or so doing that because you just can't get the athletes.
Kevin
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
But a team like a James Madison could get a sudden influx of money that we haven't seen before.
Eddie
That's true.
Bobby Bones
And I can understand a team like Boise State getting in when they're undefeated. Not get in the body, but an undefeated.
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Non power for school. I'm totally okay with getting in as that one spot, but yeah, Notre Dame took it hard. They. They were like, we're not even playing a bowl game. We're out. I totally feel you.
Eddie
They're out too.
Bobby Bones
Oh, they were like, we're not even playing a ball game.
Kevin
Yeah. My gosh, their season's done.
Eddie
Are they getting fined as well?
Bobby Bones
They don't have a conference, so they.
Eddie
Can'T find the conference. Can't find them.
Bobby Bones
And I saw contractually next year, if they're just in the top 12, they get in.
Notre Dame needs to join a conference.
Eddie
I mean, they've never been part of a conference.
Bobby Bones
They Are in other sports.
Eddie
What are they? What conference are they like in other sports?
Bobby Bones
In basketball, are they Big Ten?
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
In football, they want to stay independent, but so does UConn. So does UConn get the top 12 ruling too?
Kevin
Yeah, you kind of forget about UConn.
Bobby Bones
It's.
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I don't hate seeing someone like Notre Dame left out because a lot of times Notre Dame gets in just because of who they are.
Kevin
I'm really surprised they didn't get in just because of who they are.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Kevin
If they weren't battling with another brand like the U, then they probably would have got in. There's only a few other that would get in before.
Bobby Bones
Well, so there we are. What was your. Your biggest sports story of the weekend, Kevin? My dress didn't even play.
Kevin
I know it was a relaxing weekend for you. It was relaxing as far as the fan wise. Yeah. But everything else just went bad for me.
Bobby Bones
Probably gambling, dude. I've lost everything too.
Eddie
It's terrible, dude.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I had to put out a lean on the house.
Kevin
Exactly. Same probably Daniel Jones, the Colts, I.
Bobby Bones
Mean, a couple weeks ago, Achilles tear.
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
They have said.
Kevin
Yeah. A couple weeks ago the Colts are like, oh, we could get the one seed we're cruising. We lost to the Chiefs. It's all good.
Bobby Bones
They traded, traded the first round pick.
Kevin
And then now it's like their season's done. Who knows what they do next year. So that just sucks if you're a fan.
Bobby Bones
Like, I don't think the Colts make the playoffs. No, not with Leonardo. Yeah. And Anthony Richard has a hurt eye because he's got hit in the. Got hit in the eye with like in warm ups.
Eddie
I was wondering why he wasn't playing.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, he left like an eye injury a couple weeks ago.
Eddie
Yeah.
Kevin
Got hit with a ball, I think.
DraftKings/Gambling Disclaimer
Right?
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Sucks for the Colts. I like the Colts. I'm rooting for the Colts. Eddie, what was your biggest sports story?
Eddie
Fernando Mendoza. I don't know what to think about the guy.
Bobby Bones
Oh, you said it like he's Hispanic. Well, yeah, he obviously is, but I don't ever hear Hispanic guy say his name. I mean, it's always Fernando Mendoza, dude.
Eddie
I mean, that is very Hispanic if you got Fernando Mendoza. Yeah. Hispanic dude. But I don't understand. I don't know if I like the guy or not. Based on his post game interviews.
Bobby Bones
I love him based on his post game interview.
Odoo Advertiser
Go ahead.
Bobby Bones
Why?
Eddie
He. He yells the entire.
Odoo Advertiser
He's the nerd.
Bobby Bones
He's the nerdiest dude I know.
Eddie
And I expect him to just talk logic and be like, well, you know, they played a pretty good game, but I think we got them, you know, whatever. But he's like, no, baby, we got them.
Indiana Football Player
He yells and he looks at the.
Eddie
Camera the entire time and whoa. But thank God, I'm going to. With the Lord up above. Thank you so much.
Indiana Football Player
And we got him. Let's go, baby.
Eddie
And it's. Then it's like a serious question. And they're like, yeah, let me tell you about this. Like, dude, relax, dude.
Bobby Bones
It was right after the game. The first time they ever won a conference championship. Here you go.
Sophie Cunningham
Congratulations. Indiana, the Big Ten champs. How does that sound?
Indiana Football Player
It sounds so beautiful. I want to give all the glory to God. We were never supposed to be in this position, but by the glory of God, the great coaches, great teammates, everyone we have around us, we were able to pull this off. Whoever thought the Hoosier would be here, but now the Hoosiers are flipping champs.
Eddie
Let's go.
Sophie Cunningham
You guys call yourself a bunch of misfits who found the right home at Indiana. Why was this the right place for this group?
Indiana Football Player
It's the right place for process oriented. We're going day by day, whether it's offensive line, the defense, the coaches, special teams. We're all process orient to one goal. That's our thing is we're brothers. We can drag teams into the deep end.
Bobby Bones
He's looking at the camera too.
Indiana Football Player
Together and we're the strongest glue ever.
Sophie Cunningham
Tell me about finding Charlie Becker. Third down.
Bobby Bones
It's really nerdy and people are making fun of it, but I love it.
Kevin
He salutes the camera at the end.
Eddie
He did the whole interview and I just sat there and be like, huh? I don't know what to think about this guy.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I think that he. At third down, clutch.
Kevin
Oh, my God.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Dude won the game one and probably the Heisman. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because you have. I don't know, but I think Pavia still got a shot. I haven't seen the new eyes.
Kevin
There's a. I don't even. I haven't took them down.
Eddie
I take them down.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Kevin
Yeah.
Eddie
When you guys sent the text, I looked for him and they were. They were already.
Kevin
But at halftime, Pavia was a favorite and I was fired up before that throw. And then. Yeah, second half came out and then that throw happened. I'm like, oh, no.
Eddie
It's pretty amazing.
Kevin
But there's still a slim chance.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I think so too. I think. I think he'll probably finish second.
Kevin
Yeah. Oh, yeah. He will. He probably. Yeah.
Eddie
Now if he wins the Heisman, if. If Mendoza wins the Heisman and he does that crap when he gets the Heisman.
Bobby Bones
I love it. No, I'm in. I'll give me a jersey. I' care if he's a Brown.
Kevin
Think even further. If he goes in the commercials. Commercials. Double check.
Bobby Bones
I was going to say thanks.
Kevin
Him and Baker Mayfield in the Heisman house.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Dude, is Baker hurt?
Kevin
He looks like it.
Bobby Bones
And they're just not saying. There are two quarterbacks that are really struggling. Lamar and Baker.
Kevin
Yeah.
Eddie
Emma Holmes.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, but he ain't hurt.
Eddie
I don't know.
Bobby Bones
His freaking receivers suck.
Eddie
Well, that too. But I mean even when he ran that ball, he looked like he was limping a little bit.
Kevin
He always kind of has a little like giddy up in his.
Eddie
He's just career hurt.
Bobby Bones
They might miss the playoffs, which is kind of crazy.
Eddie
No.
Bobby Bones
How many time in nine. Nine years possibly. I don't know how many years. It makes sense.
Kevin
Yeah. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
They might miss the freaking playoffs. They probably will miss the playoffs. What did you say? 12% is what you said.
Kevin
Yeah. 12%.
Bobby Bones
Yep. So they're six and seven. That's 13. There are four games left. If they went all four, they be 10 and seven. Usually that gets you in the playoffs.
Kevin
Yeah. It also depends on obviously whatever else does.
Bobby Bones
But 10 wins is like a 90% to get you in the playoffs. They have one. I know they have the Chargers and the Broncos. So they have two hard games and then two easy games.
Kevin
Yeah, the Titans. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
They also play the Raiders. I think too, that. Yeah.
Eddie
I mean it's the NFL, right. You never know. But those should be pretty good.
Bobby Bones
I'm not giving up hope that they can make the playoffs.
Eddie
I know, man.
Kevin
They have the same record as the Dolphins all of a sudden. I know. That's crazy.
Bobby Bones
Dolphins have been playing some weak teams, but they've been winning games.
Eddie
Yeah, but A Chan got hurt too. I think that was pretty bad.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, they. Let's see. I'll find the odds of.
The Chiefs to make the playoffs. I think I'm going to bet them to make the playoffs. Okay, do it.
Eddie
Are you going to do reasonable money or outrageous money?
Bobby Bones
I need to see what the odds are. But if they win 10 games, it's rare that a 10 win team doesn't make the playoffs again. I think it's 90% they have to win four games. And again, Denver coming to Kansas City. But also, wasn't that game of Kansas City last?
Eddie
It was. Yeah. The chanting didn't help. They tried.
Kevin
What do you think about. Did you see him go over on fourth down?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, twice.
Kevin
Was that desperate? The first one especially?
Eddie
Well, it was fourth and like seven.
Bobby Bones
Fourth and four.
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Kevin
On their own 20 or something.
Bobby Bones
They had a fourth and one and they had a fourth and four. The fourth and four on their own. Is that the. Yeah. I think that the Texans. It's easy to say this after the fact. So everything I'm going to say, it's only because I saw the results of the game.
Eddie
Right.
Bobby Bones
The Texans couldn't move the ball. So to me, you punt. They haven't been able to move the ball all second half.
Eddie
Oh, so you're saying they should have punted the ball.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. That far back.
Eddie
Yeah, I agree.
Kevin
Fourth and one on their own 20 or no. Yeah, 31 yard line.
Eddie
I get it.
Bobby Bones
Everybody wants to go on fourth and one now all the time. There was a fourth and four as well.
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
So whatever the odds are 15% that they make it, that's pretty good. It's better than I thought. It's not pretty good though.
Eddie
It's better than the Cowboys. Dude.
Bobby Bones
Do you have what they are?
Kevin
Let's see. Are they 8%, 7%?
Eddie
They were at 9. And then after this week they have a better record because of the tie.
Kevin
Yeah, 8%.
Eddie
8%.
Bobby Bones
But all together. It's over a quarter that one of them had them together.
Eddie
Is that how that works?
Kevin
And then you throw the ravens in there.
Bobby Bones
Dude, I don't even know what's happening over there.
Kevin
They look bad.
Bobby Bones
Ravens, they look bad.
Kevin
Did you think it was a touchdown? Likely.
Bobby Bones
He did say he needed to get his third foot in. And the. There's so much like weird drama that happens with Isaiah likely near the end zone.

Always.
Bobby Bones

Bobby Bones
I know we're kind of bouncing back and forth between college and NFL, but both Kansas State because Notre Dame, Kansas State and Iowa State all opted out of bowls.
Eddie
Yeah. Interesting.
Bobby Bones
Why?
Eddie
Just like, because they're getting, they're getting fined like half a million dollars for it. And I feel like it's a time now where money's really important on how good your team's gonna be that that's the half a million that you're just gonna throw away because you feel like you don't have the coaching staff or whatever to play a Bowl game. Just go play a bowl game.
Bobby Bones
Or the players. If everybody's opting out, then all the freshmen play.
Eddie
It'll be a freshman game, you know.
Bobby Bones
But opting out, is that worth half a million dollars? I could see if you don't have your team, like, how many?
Eddie
Because I did see that they. Yeah, that, like, they don't have enough players or whatever. But what does that mean they don't have enough?
Bobby Bones
Like, if so many people are getting in the portal, they may not have enough to field because you need two or three deep offense and defense, at least two deep offensive defense, special teams. They just may not have enough players. Especially at some positions. They may have no players at all.
Kevin
And then you could also use that time and resources to go get more players for next year.
Eddie
But if that's the case, I would say, like, oh, we would love to play, but we just can't because we don't have enough players. But that's not the take. That's not their, like, take. Their take is just like, we're good. We're not. We just. It's too much going on. We're not going to do it.
Bobby Bones
They didn't say any of that.
Kevin
That you just said.
Bobby Bones
That's your interpretation.
Kevin
He just makes this up in his head.
Bobby Bones
When I saw the stuff about like.
Eddie
Yeah, we got coaches leaving and stuff, we just, you know, we're not going to do it.

Bobby Bones
No.
Kevin
Brady, not football.
Bobby Bones
Basketball.
Eddie
Oh, he's retiring.
Bobby Bones
Wait, I'm wrong on this one. I was thinking a different person because didn't someone.
Eddie
Didn't Gronk come back for like a game?
Bobby Bones
No, Gronk did go back for like. Yes, they did. Like a. Didn't they do recognize.
Kevin
Well, yeah, he signed a one day contract.
Bobby Bones
That's. That's what, three weeks ago? But I'm thinking of the wrong person here. This is a golfer.
Eddie
Oh, and he came back.
Bobby Bones
No, forget what I said.
Eddie
Okay.
Kevin
Was it Tiger?
Bobby Bones
No, it was Justin Rose.
Kevin
Oh. Oh.

Eddie
He wins something this year. I don't know.
Kevin
I got one. What?
Bobby Bones

Kevin
Rose, are you thinking another golfer?
Eddie
Derrick Rose.
Bobby Bones
Derrick Rose. He went back to Chicago, got his jersey, retired. That's what it was. He didn't make the list. Okay, that's what I thought. Idiot. Yeah, that's number one. Number two is a boxer.
Eddie

Kevin
Tyson Fury.
Bobby Bones
Terence Crawford.

Odoo Advertiser
Okay.
Bobby Bones
A lot of these are soccer clubs. There's only four that aren't.
Eddie
Oh, Madrid.
Bobby Bones
You're just saying there's something.
Eddie
Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
All these soccer clubs, I don't know what they are, so I'm accountable. I'm not going to worry about them. But there's four American sports teams.
Eddie
Four American sports.
Kevin
Dodgers.
Eddie
Oh, Dodgers for sure. At one. World Series.
Bobby Bones
No, don't say for sure when it's not right, then you get punished.
Kevin

Bobby Bones
Yeah. Number four, Blue Jays.
Eddie
Like, where are they from?
Kevin
Yeah, like, who are the Blue Jays?

Sg Oklahoma.

Kevin
God, that wasn't even that long ago. I already forgot, though.
Eddie
Fun game. Nah.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it kind of wasn't that fun.
Eddie
That was fun to play it.
Bobby Bones
I thought it'd be a little easier to get to. Yeah. All right. Anything else you guys want to do before we go to Eddie and I Talking about the Cowboys?
Eddie
No, man, no. Just go straight to that if you want.
Bobby Bones
Okay, we'll do this and then we'll come back. And this is. Well, we recorded this already.
Eddie
Here we go.
Bobby Bones
Okay. So we're recording this on Friday, right after the Dallas Cowboys game.
Eddie
I knew you were gonna do this. I wasn't even ready for this.
Bobby Bones
We are in to record other stuff, but it's right after the Cowboys lost. Right after Eddie west feeling at the top of the world because the Cowboys were back. They were making the playoffs. Your thoughts on the game last night?
Eddie
Did you think they were going to come back in the fourth quarter?
Bobby Bones
I thought when they got it to seven a score. Yeah. One possession. Yes. But then Detroit just. They just. They shove the ball down the throat again gives, man.
Eddie
Gibbs, they were passing the ball to give. He was running the ball through our guts like. I don't know, dude. It was. It was bad. It was bad. The penalties. I saw that. They gave up. Cowboys gave up like almost 100 yards of penalties. That is ridiculous.
Bobby Bones
So how do you feel about the Cowboys chances?
Eddie
Yeah, it's done, dude. It's over.
Bobby Bones
It's not officially over, but it's pretty much not our year, man.
Kevin
It's changed, huh?
Bobby Bones
In a matter of one day. Because again, you're hearing this on Monday. However, we recorded this the morning after the Cowboys lost. So we're getting fresh Eddie here.
Eddie
I think the percentage is nine now that we make the playoffs. Nine, I mean, there is.
Bobby Bones
Nine's not zero.
Eddie
Nine is not zero. It's going to call for a lot of other teams to just kind of lose games.
Bobby Bones
Well, the Eagles mostly. Right? I mean, you kind of need to win the NFC east in order to make it. Yeah, it's going to be hard to win the wild card in the NFC because so many of those teams have. And we'll have nine and 10 wins, probably.
Kevin
Yeah, there's a lot of good teams in the nfc. If you're in the afc, it'd be a little easier.
Bobby Bones
I think so, too.
Eddie
Yeah, but that. That Eagles schedule looks pretty. I mean, it looks like they can sail through that one.
Bobby Bones
I don't think they have a more difficult schedule than the Cowboys do. They just have to lose, I think, two more games.
Eddie
Yeah, I mean, you're right, dude. Anything can happen.
Bobby Bones
Because I think the Eagles have the Chargers. I'm going from memory here. I think the Eagles have the Chargers and possibly the Bills or another good game and then three bad games. I think they play the Commanders twice, which they're a little feisty.
Eddie
The Commanders. Could be. Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Mariota, probably the best backup quarterback in the NFL. What do you see?
Kevin
Yeah, Chargers Monday night.
Bobby Bones
So tonight.
Kevin
Tonight. Yep. And then the Raiders.
Bobby Bones
That's an easy win for the Eagles Commanders.
Eddie
They're probably going to win that one.
Kevin
And then the. The Bills.
Bobby Bones
So they got two games they could possibly lose. You really need them tonight to lose to the Chargers. Yes.
Eddie
And we need to keep winning.
Bobby Bones
Not keep. Because you just lost.
Eddie
Right. But. Well, I mean, like, we can't lose another game.
Bobby Bones
Whenever CD Lamb went down, he didn't catch that ball. I saw his hands come up and do the tua.
Kevin
Yes, that's what everyone's calling it. Oh, they did social media.
Bobby Bones
That's what it reminded me.
Kevin
Same that's what I thought, too, but it's just funny. Not funny, but people are like, oh, he's doing the Tua.
Eddie
It's the fencing. Yeah. Or whatever. When their hands kind of clamp up. But it was backwards, though. Like, his hands were behind his back.
Bobby Bones
I just saw the wrist and the fingers, and I said, that looks like when two. Because I didn't know anything about fencing or what happens to people's hands whenever they get concussed. Like, I learned that from Tua.
Eddie
Yeah, from him. Tua taught everyone what that meant.
Bobby Bones
He's basically the Sesame street of concussions for all of us dummies. So when I saw him go down, I didn't. I think it was like some massive hit, and I didn't see his head hit the ground in real time. When they showed it back, I said, yeah, hit the ground very hard.
Kevin
Yeah, yeah.
Bobby Bones
And then his hands went up, and then they said when he was walking off, he was like, no, I'm good. No, I'm good. And they were like, you're not good. You're not coming back.
Eddie
They do that in UFC, too. Like, they wake up from being out for 30 seconds. No, I'm good. I'm good. We just woke you up. You were out for 30 seconds.
Bobby Bones
What about the George Pickens? It looked like he wasn't running hard later on in the game.
Eddie
Yeah, I saw that.
Bobby Bones
People were saying, you got Pittsburgh Pickens last night.
Eddie
Right, right. I feel. I feel like they were showing when they weren't throwing him the ball, you know? So, like, I think when they weren't throwing him the ball and it was going somewhere else. Yeah, he was probably like, why am I going to finish this route if I'm not getting that ball right now?
Bobby Bones
But is there logic to, if you don't run the route, I don't throw you the ball?
Eddie
Yes, but I think the camera was going to him after the ball was already thrown. You know what I mean? That's kind of what I got from those clips.
Kevin
So you think they were fishing for it?
Eddie
I think they were fishing for, like, look how lazy he is. I think if they got him running the route before the ball was thrown, he'd probably be going 100%, but that's not what they were showing.
Bobby Bones
I don't know. I saw a couple. I saw a couple routes they threw to him. He also stopped running in the route.
Kevin
I saw a curl or something, too, where he. He thought he was gonna get hit. It looked like it almost got picked off, but he kind of stopped like, no, I'm good on that.
Eddie
Two guys. It was kind of in his hands and he didn't go for it. Yes, I saw that.
Bobby Bones
Like, what size Pickens height and weight? Because he's not as big as CD Lamb, but he's also not a small receiver.
Eddie
He's pretty skinny.
Bobby Bones
He's a little thin. Yeah, he looks skinny, but he's not small. He's not like Turpin.
Eddie
No, no. Turpin is like our size.
Bobby Bones
Turpin's micro machine.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
No, he's smaller than us.
Eddie
Is he?
Bobby Bones
I would think Turpin's like five, nine, five.
Eddie
Because you're what, six, six, one?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, yeah, I'm solid. You're six foot. I'm solid, six one.
Eddie
So he's probably. I want to say he's five eleven Pickens.
Bobby Bones
Okay, well, pick it first.
Kevin
It's six three. But he's probably realistic, like six one. He's six three listed. Two hundred pounds.
Eddie
Guess his weight.
Kevin
Oh, sorry.
Bobby Bones
One hundred and ten.
Eddie
No, I'm gonna go one hundred and ninety. Two hundred, two hundred.
Bobby Bones
So is it like his flare that he wears that makes him look thin?
Eddie
Yeah, maybe.
Bobby Bones
Because a 6 3, 200 pound receiver, that's a pretty significant body.
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
Remember when we were in Dallas and I think it was the first time that we saw Tony Pollard. Tony Pollard, yeah.
Eddie
Bigger than I thought he was. Because he looks small on tv. Well, we saw Tony Paul and we're like, wow, he's kind of. He's bigger than I thought with all.
Bobby Bones
The pads and stuff. We had him on our NFL show, and he came in, no pads.
Not small, but not big. Yeah, like, you wouldn't. Yeah, you wouldn't see him and go, that guy plays football. You'd go, that guy does something. Because he definitely looks like an athlete, but doesn't look like he has the body of a running back. That's going to take a lot of abuse.
Eddie
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
But I can't believe The Pickens is 6 3, 200 pounds. That blows my mind.
Kevin
Yeah. And Turpin is 5 9.
Eddie
Oh, God.
Kevin
Want to guess the weight?
Bobby Bones
1 70, 1 70.
Kevin
153.
Eddie
Oh, dude. I mean, you see him get, like, running those kick returns.
Bobby Bones
He's 590-153-tiny dude.
Eddie
That's why they destroy him when they tackle him.
Kevin
And that's what he's listed at. So, like, he's probably, like, 40, because.
Eddie
They always boost the list a little bit.
Bobby Bones
That's by seven old.
Kevin
Yeah. That's crazy.
Bobby Bones
Did you see the kicker? I think he Was just let go. He didn't play for Arkansas. They said he played for Arkansas. He played for Arkansas State, and I think he was a Saints kicker for a bit. You may look him up. He was like 57130, and he was.
Eddie
He was.
Bobby Bones
He was walking out and he was signing a couple things, and they were like, kicker. He may have just been released. He looked like a child.
Eddie
130, dude, that's small.
Bobby Bones
Again, I'm exaggerating, I'm sure. But there's a kicker that played for Arkansas State and somewhere else.
Kevin
Great. Blake Groupie.
Bobby Bones
That's it.
Kevin
Yeah.
Eddie
And he played for the Saints.
Bobby Bones
He was with the Saints, I believe, at the time when they shot the video.
Kevin
Yeah. And he's. He's not with him anymore. Now they got that. That guy from Ireland or something. I don't know if you saw that story last week, but o'.
Odoo Advertiser
Rourke.
Kevin
Yeah.
O'. Donnell.
Bobby Bones
I literally have no idea. Just put an O in front of a name. Look at already.
Kevin
Look at this guy. This is the Arkansas State kid.
Bobby Bones
Look at how small he is.
Eddie
Oh, yeah.
Kevin
Let's play for Notre Dame. That's a picture of him on Notre Dame.
Eddie
Wow. Dude, he's tiny, and he looks really young.
Bobby Bones
He looks like a child in all facets, even his size. Did it say what his height and weight was?
IBM Advertiser
One sec.
Bobby Bones
I don't think he's 5 9, nor do I think he's 13 years old.
Eddie
Yeah.
Kevin
Let's see.
Bobby Bones
I'll say this about Brandon Aubrey. That dude doesn't miss.
Eddie
No, he doesn't, dude.
Bobby Bones
And he. And he tackles on returns.
Eddie
I know. I didn't like that. I mean, I hated that he had to do it, but I like that he tackled. I hated that he had to do it.
Kevin
Five, seven. And he actually weighs more than turp. And he's 156.
Eddie
Okay.
Bobby Bones
Five, seven, one, five, six, five, seven is Raymundo.
Eddie
Yeah, that's small, dude.
Bobby Bones
Small and weighs less than Raymundo.
Eddie
Gosh, that's crazy.
Bobby Bones
It also shows you, like a golf swing, the kicking motion isn't about how strong and how big you are.
Eddie
It's technical. It's like. It's how you do it.
Bobby Bones
Yeah, it's more strength, efficiency, right?
Eddie
Yeah. Yeah.
Kevin
That's why I'm so bad.
Eddie
I mean, look at. Look at Brandon Aubrey, dude. It looks like he's just tapping the ball. There's no effort on the six. That 62 that he kicked. Like, there's no effort on that kick, and it just went perfect.
Bobby Bones
I don't want to screw him out of a yard. I think it was 63.
Eddie
63, yeah. Thank you.
Bobby Bones
I think it was. Because once you hit over 60, like, all those yards matter.
Eddie
I know, I know.
Kevin
Absolutely.
Bobby Bones
Dallas Cowboys.
Eddie
Yeah. It's out less than a 10. Season's over.
Bobby Bones
Who do they have next week?
Eddie
I think we. Next week, do we have. I don't know.
Kevin
Vikings.
Eddie
Viking. Oh, Vikings. That's good.
Bobby Bones
If you win a couple, you can be back in. We're going to hear you again.
Eddie
Probably not. I mean, two maybe. Depends how bad they beat him. Like, if they kill the Vikings, you.
Bobby Bones
Need the Eagles to lose tonight, correct?
Eddie
Yes.
Kevin
Were you surprised how bad their defense was, the Cowboys?
Eddie
I didn't think their defense was too bad. They started off strong and then I just think just we got figured out. I think they just kind of knew what to do with this. I think the hot take. Hot take.
Bobby Bones
Aubrey at linebacker.
Eddie
No, Amon Ra was never hurt. And I feel like they.
Bobby Bones
He was moving really well.
Eddie
I feel like they got us with that and we moved our whole defensive scheme on how to cover without Amon Ra. And they got. Dude, they never. I mean, I think Jameer Gibbs caught the ball.
10 times.
Bobby Bones
Like, you think he had 10 receptions.
Eddie
I think he got. He got more receptions than he got runs. Maybe. I don't know. Close. It's going to be close. But I think that that screwed with us.
Bobby Bones
Kevin's just frantically always looking up things that we're saying.
Kevin
It's a lot harder on the phone than the computer. I'm used to being on a computer.
Eddie
I feel like they threw the ball to him a lot.
Kevin
He had what, three touchdowns?
Bobby Bones
Yes. That one play when he was going to the sideline. And I'm going to make the whole podcast and we'll wrap it up. But they threw him an out and he stopped, cut back in and the down Cowboy cornerback ankles broke. It looked like a crossover. Looked like an Iverson crossover. That happened.
Eddie
Yeah. He couldn't stop himself.
Bobby Bones

Kevin

Bobby Bones
Looking at odds here on the NFL.
The AFC 1 seed, the Patriots and the Broncos are tied as the favorites.
Kevin
Let's go.
Eddie
Wow, that's a good bet.
Bobby Bones
I feel like the Patriots are due for a reckoning.
Kevin
Yeah, I'm waiting for it.
Bobby Bones
Everybody's celebrating them so much and that's usually what happens as soon as people start to celebrate.
Kevin
You got the Bills this week.
Eddie
You kind of let your foot off the gas a little bit.
Bobby Bones
It's in New England though, right?
Kevin
Yeah, yeah. But if we win, then we win the AFC East. It's the Bills big game.
Bobby Bones
Yeah.
Eddie
Bills snow game. Should we have another snow game? I feel like it's always snowing up there.
Bobby Bones
Patriots, Broncos, then the Jaguars at number three.
Eddie
That's tough, man.
Bobby Bones
And then the bills are plus 1600.
Kevin
That's some good money.
Bobby Bones
You can bet yes or no on if these teams make the playoffs. So, okay, how you guys feel about the Chiefs?
Eddie
I bet the favorites. No, obviously, because they're. What percentage.
Bobby Bones
Yeah. Minus 550. Yeah. So you'd have to bet 550 bucks to make $100, man.
Eddie
It's hard to not believe in the Chiefs though, that they can pull it off.
Bobby Bones
I'm gonna bet. If I bet yes, it's a plus 390. If I bet yes and bet 500 bucks. That pays 2450. I'm gonna do that.
Eddie
Like they just start catching balls all of a sudden.
Bobby Bones
Dude, that was terrible.
Eddie
Yeah, all of them just dropping passes left and right. And then Mahomes just running for his life every play. Like that's tough.
Bobby Bones
Do you guys stay up, watch the whole game?
Eddie
No, no, no. Yeah, and that's rare for me, dude. I usually stay up to watch cuz I have a bet going or whatever. I was like my, my best one. My bets are gonna hit and to like this is a dumb game.
Kevin
I was defeated mentally because we had.
Bobby Bones
Lost so much money.
Kevin
Yes.
Bobby Bones
Did you guys go check the page?
Eddie
No, no, no, no, no. Is it updated?
Bobby Bones
Yeah, I think we're at minus. I just said it earlier, like six.
Kevin
Honestly, that's not as bad as I thought.
Bobby Bones
I start to feel guilty because you guys are gonna owe so much money.
Eddie
Don't worry about us, dude.
Kevin
No, you should worry about us.
Eddie
Like I've mentally prepared myself for 1500 certain amount of money and if we go above that amount, we're in trouble.
Bobby Bones
What have you mentally prepared yourself for?
Eddie
I can't tell you that. Yeah, you can. No, I don't want to. I don't want to. What do you call manifest?
Bobby Bones
You're not. No, I asked you.
Kevin
Yeah.
Eddie
Oh, that's not. That's not manifesting if you ask me. That takes all that out.
Bobby Bones
What do you got?
Eddie
2,500 a piece.
Bobby Bones
Okay, so. So for you to have to pay 2500, that would mean we'd lose $10,000.
Eddie
Total, which is possible.
Bobby Bones
I don't think we're going to lose that much money.
Eddie
Okay.
Bobby Bones
No, we're still going to win some games. I feel like if Joe Burrows back, the Bengals are going to win some games. I think the Chiefs are still going to win some games.
Kevin
Yeah.
Bobby Bones
I just bet them to make the playoffs, dude.
Eddie
What's so hard, though, is, like, when I'm watching these games, like, you know, we have a Sunday ticket and the kids are like, dad, put it on the Bills game. Like, hold on. Like, I'm watching, you know, whatever. Like one of our teams. And they're just like, why do you care so much about the Bengals?
Bobby Bones
Like, you're like, I can't tell you.
Eddie
I don't know.
Bobby Bones
But I like, oh, you're not even. You're not telling your kids.
Eddie
And even if I did, it's hard to explain. Like, I got him on this thing.
Bobby Bones
You're a massive Bengals fan now.
Eddie
Yes.
Bobby Bones
All right, well, we appreciate you guys. Truth be told, we had a guest scheduled today and they never showed up. We won't say who it is.
Eddie
Yeah, we were ready to go, but the guest.
Bobby Bones
The guests never showed up.
Kevin
Dang.
Eddie
Oh, Dilfer all over again.
Bobby Bones
Not in person, though.
Kevin
Yeah, a little different. They never.
Bobby Bones
They never zoomed in. So, yeah, that's it. Hope you guys have a great rest of the day and we'll see you guys later on this week. All right. Blow the whistle, Eddy. All right, bye, everybody.
