This is the atom gold shell is a lot of positivity right there in game yet I isolate something I'd never seen before and I just appreciate sports for that. There are times you see things I've never seen feel like I've watched a lot of games in my life never seemed okay. I was the response is also very interesting will get all of that, I better go. You can participate on this in this program. More on this program. I don't even know you can do that on Twitter at Eagle fan at V to V_to_the Victoria Victoria's business program will agenda for phone numbers at at you later if you want to participate in the in the met rule us on coming up to 1 o'clock before we start, but I'll do it all hang on. So, yes, will we always leave the lease that the 1 o'clock segment open for people to participate in some way shape or form. So yes, it will be met. Rule thought right there was talk with David Hale of ESPN covers the ACC because it was an interesting weekend and of course will Brinson will join us starting in about 13 minutes. Also little baseball because baseball is played and the Mets are no longer playing it so well. I will get later. I don't need to belabor the Mets at this point so we might as well start, let's do it, because we spend so much time with with football. Then I fell football the first hour of this program. We don't really like to just mention it quickly and then move on to the college stuff because we want to spend more time with that pit does go out to that era is over. Steve Wilkes, who was a former defensive coordinator for the Panthers and then got literally one year with the Arizona Cardinals before they either decided he was not the guy or lusted too much. I think it was over, Cliff Kingsbury, which is not the guy either.

But whatever defense the eight is right from central casting for the NFL right is right from central casting. I have a I have a couple of thoughts on the next head coach of the Panthers is likely to be and this is not to be a flattering discussion but will do that a little bit later on anyway so Steve Wilkes will get an opportunity for the balance of the season to be the head coach and will see where it goes from here.

To me this was a mercy fire met rule because we've talked about met rule lot met rule really is a good dude. I mean look like there's no. He's the most non-football coach football coach I have ever followed covered whatever I don't know met rule we spoken it like twice in 2 1/2 years, but he comes off as just a regular guy who you like and I believe that that was evident. By the way the Panthers players discussed him over the last few weeks. They were all hundred percent on board behind Matt rule. Even Brian Burns just came out a tweet saying how he still supports him, even after yesterday they love and care Christian McCaffrey was angry yesterday after the game yet looked a little of met so this is a mercy firing because it was would've been unfair for Matt rule to absorb all the slings and arrows of what was going to be another horrific season and are argued night, and arguably this would've been their worst under rule.

This was trending toward their worst. Remember what we talked about the absolute best case scenario for the Panthers this year. My opinion was a wins, eight, nine, man. That's the ceiling for this team and it was predicated on a good start there one for so it wasn't going to be that it was probably good to be closer to three wins under met rule so good. Smart move by David Tepper to end this now Matt can just cut a chill yeah the 40 million in the bank till they find the file.

We don't worry about met rule Gillick still get a college job.

There's some some sort of a assumption that met rule is going to get big college jobs and like he's never had a big college job it like he's urban Meyer numbing on my comparing that rural to urban Meyer in terms of personality or anything like that that effect.

He's the anti-urban Meyer. He's a nice guy, met rule didn't fail as an NFL coach because he came in here thinking that he could do it all, like Meyer did not rule failed at this because he just wasn't good enough. 11 wins 27 losses no hope zero very popular person within the walls of Bank of America Stadium, but he was always in over his head and most of us realize that last season in the middle of last season. Most of us realized and I've heard way too many arguments about builders need time. It's unfair he got a seven year deal. All he needs is a quarterback Butkus. All of the full justification would've been merited had rule demonstrated at any point in the first two years that he could do this even if he wasn't good.

It be great if he could get to know where he could see the bottom of Ron Rivera issues Ron Rivera is a good not a great good head football coach, but he won he couldn't even see where Ron Rivera was. It was just obvious. So 38 games and it's the same as it ever was. The team got worse are significantly worse today than they were in year one.

Every single quarterback regressed under met rule everyone everyone Sam Darnall was better as a jet that he was a panther and the Jets were terrible.

That's the problem that's saying a lot right here going backwards.

Figure Mayfield unconvinced is not this bad. He looks pretty but they look pretty bad so they were just hopeless and it's unfortunate, but nice guy. Let them just be just be Halloween decorations.

Matt, I need some help, which is on blog posts that need stuck out in the yard lights are coming. I got a crazy looking cats that need to go again… That woman I would not rule which will Brinson coming up in a little bit with a lot of staying on brand this weekend and ACC football here locally. Especially NC state did what they had to do come-from-behind win over Florida State.

They did all the things that they do that we get mad at the did lose Devon Leary to her right shoulder or arm injury. We don't night. I have not seen results not of their sending me the results of the MRI but I'm not seen the story based on the results.

At this point, but they were anticipating having them yesterday so I don't know you never like to see your quarterback with his throwing arm in a sling now so that a good Jack Chambers finished up.

He caught one pass and completed none in 1/4 of work okay what he throws a nice ball. Nobody caught it really true. One, I think you might approach it with.

There was a penalty. Stay one without a passing game state one good for them. They relied on their defense. Good for them. They were down 17 three at the half. Great drive to open up the second half Leary to Darrell Jones for a 10 yard touchdown debated 17 to 10 then states defense completely took over Florida State punted four straight times and followed that with a pair of Jordan Travis interceptions will talk about the lesson. The section in the second but let's talk about.

I think it was the second point is the first of the second but I don't even I don't even know.

Here's the thing about what I don't neighbor the punter he crossed the line of scrimmage before punting the ball. First of all I thought it was. I thought it was a fake. And I thought he was going to get it and then he just decided to punted after running across the line of scrimmage by yard and I did not know the roof and I just figured, well, that's an illegal pot. They're either going to make an punted again or stable. Just get the ball plus however many yards, no 5 yard penalty plus loss it out a chick.

It's essentially illegal forward pass and that's what that is. 5 yard penalty plus loss of thinking while that's better than a turnover is just tremendous and then states defense or states offense.

Actually, what's the difference states offense. What -5-5 holding title to a holding penalty.

They had about the 13 yard line and Chris started to come down to the 53 yard field which he may not thought that is spectacular. I had never seen a punter crossed the line of scrimmage. I want never seen that. So I had no idea what the rule was and then states response to it was yeah this is too easy would it make you ratchet up the degree of difficulty and then after Stata taken that 1917 lead.

They punted the +36 and I thought why your kicker just made essentially the same freaking field-goal so why not just just kick it is plenty of time.

Let the respondent almost 5 minutes left so just kick it all put points on the board Florida State as long as you Jordan Travis from running.

You are probably okay course, had trouble with that no they punted it. Florida State drove is penalty that the white Way second all of a sudden Florida State 22 times running out.

If they kick a field goal, you lose. Then Jordan, Travis, there is one of the dumbest interception of everything that it might not of been on him. It might've been a receiver running the wrong route for the people who are anti-you shouldn't throw it in that situation. Mike I know I had no problem with throwing it.

I'd problem with the actual result of that there kicker.

One very good right Florida State is this kicker wasn't good so it's just the whole thing was a mess, but they look Wolf back one the game and look that's why states can happen whenever nothing went ugly. If Leary is out for any length of time there you have to went ugly. Although Jack Chambers threw the ball to in a Charleston Southern becomes a passing offense when Chuck it meant course state has injected all year, so UNC holds off Miami 27 to 24 hurricane scored 10 points and final 30 seconds of the first half to make you squirm, but UNC never struggled offensively, probably to get the most out of the almost 500 yards of offense either got to the run game while Miami never did that the now they have the upper hand in the coastal heading to Duke, who acquiesced to Georgia Tech again.

It's what took his. Actually, they didn't all explained in a second, probably thrown through a shout out to Georgia Tech for bucking up for a second straight game with a interim coach. There was no hope. Then you go to Pittsburgh and when 90 B Duke. I look maybe Duke is just water, finding its level, which we all have to assume is at least possible right as good as it looked for five weeks. Even in the loss to Kansas as good as it looked.

We all in the back of our mind were wondering what is at midnight world and I'm not not different than anybody else.

So they lose, but if you're if you're Duke. If you beat Carolina Saturday night, Wallace Wade Stadium disorder back in control sort, but I don't think you beat Carolina so all that does is put Carolina big time in control. They will have wins over arguably the two biggest contenders in the coastal although it maybe I don't Georgia Tech so defeated the Georgia Tech lab would be Georgia Tech anyway. The that's what the real real quick wait for you. Duke did force overtime to get Georgia Tech they were down by 114. The return upon for touchdown turn it over on downs. Then they get the ball back would like three minutes left, drive down the field score touchdown tied up. Send over time Georgia Tech Georgia Tech kicks a field goal and then Duke on third down completes a pass for a first down.

But there was an offense of pass interference penalty and Duke ends up attempting a 52 yard field goal that Charlie had Mrs. and that's it. Georgia Tech wins the game. Wake crushed Army. Although Army did rush or did you pile up about 400 yards of offense. So wake still has the same the same type of issues that they have had in the past and that you can move the ball on so they're going wake like will awaken Carolina play that figures to be very similar to what we saw last year, which is basically a pinball machine which is it's good to go to tilt both teams are going to hit 50 and Morgan are we going to have fun and you know and if if mascots had to do push-ups after each score they would be in trouble but I'm okay watching that it's fun, it's more fun than watching some of the things that we tend to have to watch but wake obviously is dynamiting part real quick to the baseball were where will Brinson is otherwise indisposed at this moment we are going to push them back is a little bit. Two things about baseball. We had the division playoffs.I'm sorry the wildcard series over the weekend. It was kinda sad to see St. Louis get swept not because I wanted the Cardinals to wind I wanted to be able to see Albert pool halls and I guess Yorty are Melina both extend their careers as long as possible. Interestingly enough, they each got hits in their final at backs pools. I believe in the eighth-inning hit a single down the left-field line.

He was pulled for a pinch runner yacht here in the ninth also got a hit. He was pulled for a pinch runner, but the Cardinals couldn't come back and tie the Phillies and that was that Billy swept that that series 2 games to none in St. Louis. Philly advances to meet the brace will talk about the Braves and the second the Mets got beat in three there was only one game yesterday.

It was the Mets in the Padres and the Mets did in last nights game really what they had done over the last six weeks and that's just not hit all all credit to Musgrove for shoving it at the Mets meeting was great like there were a lot of teams that would hit them yesterday but Padres were good powders of the better team over three games.

I'm not even for the Mets were that much better than them on Saturday night the Mets won. I think it was really wanting to did it, but the Mets were otherwise sort of feckless at the plate and the Mets didn't get the starting pitching. We talk to Ellie Johnson about this because we previewed the wildcard series in my opinion it's your starting pitching dominance is overrated in the postseason. The postseason is all about getting a key hit and your bullpen. Those are the two elements that when postseason games and the Mets didn't get key hits and it didn't even matter whether or not there bullpen was good because the starters weren't matchers or was awful. Probably not healthy.

Jacob pogrom cut it out for six innings, but he wasn't great and Chris Bassett yesterday was terrified of the moment if you watched it. You could tell he was afraid to pitch to the shortstop seven hole hitter.

He was terrified of throwing him a strike in the sick and the second rule are you doing in the second inning and Padres ended up winning the game of the thing was six nothing but a game was over in the second because you could you could just feel it.

You could feel it, that it was over. With that said Padres look like fun Soto Machado look up there to get home runs out of the bottom line of production and bottom-line up there to be tough. Then I can be tough for the Dodgers to baby doll that they will not go down without a fight and I actually think that they have good enough starting pitching all you need in postseason baseball is good enough starting pitching.

You don't need dominant starting pitching because you're probably not going to win that way, but the Padres were better than the Mets, which frankly might not of been hard as the Mets might've made it easy and distort guardians swept the raise and I got the raise in so many chances to win, and that 70 inning game on Saturday. That was scoreless going to the bottom of whatever inning it ended in raise and I don't 34 chances to score runs and never did and finally boom homeroom were done. See you raise go home and the Mariners rallied from a 71 deficit on the road in Toronto in game two of that series to win it by think 10 nine my nose was 81, they were down 8 to 1 and rallied to the tided nine and then wanted 10 nine so good for the Mariners Mariners refund and they are going to be tough out. Although I do believe you sings the best team and will see the Yankees deal with the guardians one more whimsical thing about the Braves before we break. They they're there to get the Phillies they think they beat the Phillies 1119 this year. Phillies are good enough starting pitching. If they hit their going to be a little bit of a problem, but there's a lot of similarities between the two teams in terms of how they score runs. Which is pretty much laudable, but the Braves sign Spencer Strider to a long-term contract decided to what amounts to a seven year deal were.

I don't know that the total is six, 97 million think it's seven years, 97 million when I tag when you tack on the team option if Spencer Strider is a top of the rotation starter Noah phone number one or number two. Toward the end of it.

Then they stole the stolen money.

I don't about the lemon pepper wings at magic city must be so amazing that everybody who plays for the Braves sign scores significantly below market value. They must be the most delicious things in this on this earth. That's the secret. Tanya but good good siding and actually with pitching.

It's a little bit more dicey to project so the Braves are taking are taking a risk, but if there just close to right there. The winner of this big abscess. It is before I did the Braves go back to World Series. That said, that's a fun team that's pointing the only reason I would be written against them and I'm not. I'm not running against them. I am rooting for them. I like I like the way that team plays baseball so I am rooting for the Braves, but if I was written against them, I'd be written against faith, the most childish fans in ever ever. That's personal for me.

That's I apologize for the this is the Adam gold shell
