| 0:00.0 | This will be the top five headlines in our eyes. |
| 0:02.4 | Now, granted, will our top five headlines match other people's top five headlines? Maybe. But on this particular sports day, the five things that we think you need to hear about, we're going to cover early in the first 15th. Let's put 15 minutes on the clock, please. Yeah, we got an actual clock. I mean, things are actually happening. And let's start with roll that thing. Let's go with number five tonight, |
| 0:21.9 | the Bill Belichick era debuts down there in Chapel Bill, North Carolina. They'll take on TCU |
| 0:28.3 | in a game that's going to be on ESPN, a game that's going to be, I think, electrifying. |
| 0:33.8 | Now, with the underhit, we think so. We think what you saw with Matt Patricia against Arch Manning, which we will certainly talk about here in a little bit. They were saying Matt Patricia, basically Bill Belichick, Steve Sarkesian. Well, Bill Belichick is actually now in college ball. What will he do to the high-paced TCU offense? We shall see. There was an article written on ESPN.com this morning. Actually, pretty balanced. Covered, you know, all the things that have basically happened since Bill has become the UNC head coach. Obviously, there's been some drama. There's been a lot of drama, but there's been a lot of good in the building as well. Like, for instance, tonight, I believe Michael Jordan will be on his side. Wow. Julius Peppers, Lawrence Taylor, Eric church. Chase Rice Rice, who I was actually there for his last football game as a North Carolina |
| 1:14.2 | Tar Hill. |
| 1:14.7 | They lost by one point to the West Virginia Mountaineers. |
| 1:17.6 | I remember that. |
| 1:18.6 | Hell yeah. |
| 1:19.6 | It was in North Carolina and Chase Rice will be there, obviously. |
| 1:22.6 | And same with Blake Snow. |
| 1:25.6 | So whenever you're talking about the who's who of North Carolina, Mia Hamm is going to be swinging by. |
| 1:30.5 | It's like the attention that this North Carolina football team is getting is obviously at a different level than it had been over the years. But will they be able to play football immediately? Will they be a team that'll be able to jail quickly like some of these other teams that we've seen around college ball that got a lot of transfer portal people got got a lot of people that maybe didn't know each other just a few months ago come together to play good football, or are they going to be a team that got a bunch of people that don't know each other come back and be bad at football? TCU is a tough task, but tonight should be electrifying down in North Carolina. Yeah, at 333 wins in the NFL, I think he's going to be able to figure out in college. 5 and 11, I think, was his year one record for the Patriots. So it might take a little bit here, but they're going to be in every single game. Yeah, I think it's going to be an under as well. I think it's going to get a little tight. That's the number five headline as they take off on runway 23. Remember the Michael Jordan sponsorship there? There is a stat about the betting here for Bill Belichick as an underdog. |
| 2:19.1 | Yeah, I do. This is from Hembow, by the way. I don't want to take this as miles. |
| 2:23.2 | Agreed. Clock ticking. From 2001 to 2019, which is the Brady Belichick era, the Patriots were underdogs 53 times. New England went 32 and 21 with a 604.1 percentage in those games. |
| 2:34.6 | The best record in the NFL as an underdog over that span. UNC. is a dog tonight. So we assume that this is going to go under because we think Bill Belichick will make you play left-handed. They said Matt Patricia Belichick, Steve Sarkesian. What does that mean, actually, D? But as a man who was drafted at the top of the second round to the New England Patriots defense. That really means the defense is very, very prepared and prepared to show one thing pre-snap and then another thing post-snap. We're all good lives and we're all on the same page. That defense is tough to stop, especially for these young quarterback. So you talked about taking time early on. He has free agency. He has the draft already brand new team. I think they'll be prepared. I got UNC winning straight up. Oh, I like that. He does have connections to, we all have connections to Lombardi and Belichick with DCU, great football team. And at the end of last year, they got real hot. They figured out who they were. A lot of tempo. How will Bill Belichick manage that? We shall see. Let's go to the number four headline from the weekend. Hey, special teams are special special special. We're not just talking |
| 3:27.9 | about a little special. We're talking special special. A lot of great things for the brand across the board. |
| 3:32.2 | Let's go down to the Beamer Bowl, where we had some Beamer ball. South Carolina return man. |
| 3:37.6 | Vicari Swain takes this thing 80 yards to the crib. 10-8 game. It was a cagey affair. |
| 3:44.7 | Both teams looked good, actually. Lenore Sellers is a guy. Cannot wait to see what he does |
| 3:49.1 | in the NFL and also for the rest of the year for South Carolina. And Vicari Swain is an absolute |
| 3:54.4 | menace. He's a DB who, great vision, great everything. And then let's go to immediately after the game. They're calling this the Beamer Bowl because obviously Frank Beamer, Shane's Padre, his father, coach of Virginia Tech for a long time. Shane Beamer went to Virginia Tech. Shane Beamer started his entire coaching career in Virginia Tech. Now he's a head coach at South Carolina with the highest expectations that he's ever had there. Frank Beamer, before the game, said he's love seeing Shane live out his dream as a head coach. And taking on Virginia Tech, obviously going to be a little bit of tear of heart. But blood is thicker than legacy is what Frank Beamer said. And after the game, this is what Shane came up to say to his old man. Oh, man. I thought that that one's over. |
