| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Boneyard with Steve Roberts and as always I am your good friend and host Steve Robertson trying to get this show done in time for you for your drive home today or maybe finishing up your work day. I'll be honest with you. I'm in kind of a foul mood today. I am and have been since I don't know maybe two minutes into that second half last night in that ball game. Probably good I didn't record last night. |
| 0:22.9 | And fired off some texts that maybe I shouldn't have. |
| 0:25.8 | But, yeah, frustrating night. |
| 0:28.9 | And I think the reality of the moment is kind of upon us. |
| 0:33.3 | We're not as good as we expected to be now. |
| 0:36.1 | I didn't expect to beat Florida. |
| 0:37.5 | I also didn't expect to get blown out by Florida. |
| 0:40.0 | And I, like many of you, I'm like, you know what, man, we endured such a challenging football season. |
| 0:45.3 | And all due respect to everybody associated with football, nobody asked for Blake Shapen to get hurt. |
| 0:51.4 | And I'm not sure how many more games he would have won, but I feel pretty confident that we would have won a couple more. |
| 0:57.6 | But, you know, hey, it kind of lets you off the hook a little bit, I guess, |
| 1:01.4 | when things are struggling and your quarterback goes down |
| 1:03.6 | and you've got to play a true freshman. |
| 1:05.1 | But we endured a 2-10 football season. |
| 1:10.9 | Look forward to basketball. |
| 1:12.4 | We felt like the men would be better than the women. |
| 1:15.1 | Both of them now are kind of drifting a bit, shall we say? |
| 1:20.3 | We're going to talk a little bit about both today. |
| 1:23.0 | But, yeah, disappointed last night. |
| 1:25.5 | And again, I guess it's one of those things, too, which just kind of all adds up. You know what I mean? It's like, hey, we narrowly lose to Kentucky. Again, we feel like we should have won. Alabama slips out of here with a tight win, and we start thinking, okay, we've got to find, we've got to get that one SEC signature win. And again, I throw the Ole Miss game out at home because it's a rivalry game. |
| 1:48.3 | Still think we'll slip into the tournament, but, man, we've got to win some ball games. |
| 1:52.3 | And I think the post-game commentary from Chris Jans did not really maybe, I don't know, give us a lot of confidence. |
