🕵️‍♂️ Transcript:

welcome into hour two of college football pregame presented by FanDuel America’s number one sports book make every moment more and it all comes down to this number one Oregon facing off against number three Penn State for the Big 10 title the Ducks the only perfect team left in college football and James Franklin in Penn State trying to change that tonight on CBS and Paramount plus with a preview here’s our hakee dermish chaos is a weekly theme in college football one constant Oregon undeterred and undefeated in their first season in the Big 10 the ducks ran the table beating the best the conference had to offer Oregon is the only undefeated team in FBS this season a perfect 12 and o oh oh no Ohio state was primed to play Oregon in the Big 10 Championship but the Buckey got upset by Michigan the beneficiary Penn State the nitty lions belong on the big stage yet the question remains can they win the big game under head coach James Franklin Penn State has lost 11 straight games against top five opponents now facing the tippy top team in all of college qu pen State Oregon for the Big 10 Championship on CVS [Music] Oregon looking to be one of four teams that could win a conference Championship Saturday as debutants in a new conference welcome back inside our HQ Studios Jeremy St Louis alongside Brandon Marcelo and as we gear up for that title game we have our colge football pregame crew in Indie for the matchup tonight Jordan Georgio alongside her crew Jordan I know it’s colder there than what you’re used to you and the crew are you surviving and did bring enough warm clothes with you barely barely barely surviving we haven’t gotten into any trouble thus far but we’d be lying if we told you that we haven’t had any fun in India I think Cardell is on his third cup of tea so bear with us going to say something to the people Cardell yeah it’s only 11 morning so we’re going to try and get through this because we have quite a day ahead of us all right you guys let’s get into this matchup you know we we’ve talked a lot about a win or loss for both of these teams what it means for the college football playoff for both squads on that field today they’re in regardless of a win or loss from the players perspective though Danny does that alleviate some of the pressure knowing you’re still in does it take some of the pressure off knowing you have that safety net yeah I think so absolutely I think there’s probably more of a free flowing feeling from Penn State right they didn’t even think they were playing in this game they were thinking hey we’re going to probably be the five seed their season felt a little bit underwhelming because their biggest game they lose to Ohio State and go back to James Franklin getting yelled at by a fan as he’s coming off the field and now they like I can Envision them sorry watching and feeling and getting the store uh the score of the Michigan Ohio State game and realizing oh my gosh like we have a chance to win a big 10 Championship now something we did not think we were going to get so I think they absolutely have a little bit more of a freedom that they’re playing with house money where Oregon’s still trying to cling on to that number one spot being undefeated being clean this season which they have been spectacular but I think there’s a little bit more pressure on Oregon to win this game I would agree I think that what helps Penn State is the fact that when we look at these matchups and we talk about James Franklin not being able to win these big games it looks like he’s coaching very stressed it looks like the players are playing with a very tense way about them and I think that like Danny said they’re playing with house money today so James Franklin can go out he can coach free he can tell his players to go out and be free he can tell Drew Aller take some risk you know if you see a shot down the field take it Nick Singleton if you see a lane open up you know take it try to make something happen try to create and make things happen because when you’re in situations like this you can play free and you can just play you know your type of G without the pressure of you know the circumstances that’s very interesting that you say that because I was going to ask you if both coaches are going to play a little bit more conservatively knowing that there’s more games to play what’s your take there know I think you still want that number one seat because you get that buy and it’s Sor to we’re going we’re going to get through this it’s fine you get that number one C because you get that buy and that’s going to help you a lot right Oregon has the opportunity to be one of the one team one of six teams to beat Ohio State Penn State and Michigan all in the same year on top of Making a Splash in the first year conference in a big 10 and being Big 10 Champs Danny this points total set at 50 and a half do you think it’s going to be a pretty lowc scoring game if both coaches are maybe playing a little bit more conservatively I do I and I don’t know if it’s about the conservative nature of the of the coaching I think it has to do about these defenses that are are outstanding I mean we’ve got Al du Carter one of the best pass rushers in the country who I think is going to get after Dylan Gabriel today and then on the other side Oregon just got back Jordan bur Matteo ungal has really developed he was the guy that kind of surprised a lot of people in that game against Ohio State and go back I watched the film against Washington I thought it was I kept watching them started counting I’m like they had 10 sacks and 16 tackles for loss in in that game like it was not a month it was one game so I think they’re going to be able to get after this uh this Penn State offense as well if they can contain Tyler Warren that Superstar you know X Factor at tight end for uh Penn State mney Lions which I think they’ll have a pretty good plan Dan Ling’s a great defensive mind him Tom Allen the defensive coordinator for Penn State I think the defenses shine but if you looked at my record all season long maybe it’s going to be like 50 to 49 like it could be that all right go let’s go I was going to say to add to Danny’s Point both of these teams also need to rely on the Run game Jordan James has been phenomenal for Oregon he’s got almost 12200 yards rushing he’s got 13 touchdowns and then on the other side of the ball Penn State needs to find a way to get Nick Singleton and KRON Allen going whether it’s in the Run game whether it’s in the pass game like these both of these teams are going to have to live through their running backs today and I think that controlling the clock especially if you’re Pinn State trying to keep the ball away from Oregon trying to keep the ball away from Dylan Gabriel you have to be able to run the ball you have to be able to establish a dominance at the line of scrimmage and keep the ball out of the duck’s hands I do want to talk about some of the weapons a little bit later on but let’s talk about this quarterback matchup we’re going to see two of the most efficient quarterbacks in the conference today Oregon Zill and Gabriel and Penn stage Drew Aller let’s start with Gabriel Here Danny aside from he’s a veteran the most experienced in the game where else does he have the edge um decision-making I mean he has PR the most trustworthy back all season long we’ve seen guys up and down Carson Beck’s a good example at Georgia he’s had phenomenal games and then he’s had three three interception games Jaylen milro has been incredible at times taking over games with his legs but if you take those away he gets held to three points against Oklahoma Dylan Gabriel has just consistently delivered the other thing Jordan that I’ve been impressed with him he’s gotten better throughout the season and I think often times we think for a transfer quarterback oh you just plug him in just plop him in there and Eugene and he’ll it’ll just work he struggled somewhat earlier had a couple Red Zone inter ctions to me that was more about him getting used to the timing and rhythm of wiste system getting used to his wide receiving core and he’s got better and better all season long but he is a great decision maker I will point out this he’s also a pretty deceptive athlete last year in the Red River rivalry he rushed for over a 100 yards if Penn State gets after him he does have the capability to get outside the pocket and hurt you with his legs let’s get to Drew all now Cardell the this junior year we’ve really seen him come into his own we’ve seen improved accuracy um efficiency as well um maybe not the eye poppy numbers but I think that’s due to the fact that James Franklin and Company maybe not putting him in the situations allowing him to go outside his comfort zone so much but I think the overarching discussion with Penn State and a lot of people not believing that they can come out on top with a win today is that we know he’s capable of having those high explosive um plays but we haven’t seen it yet how confident are you that we see that from him today you know what I think my comfort level is is very high with Drew Aller and this offense cuz they do a good job of getting the ball out of his hands you look at the efficiency you look at the pass percentage over 70% because a lot of Dink and dunks and it’s going to be a nightmare for this Oregon defense who just came up with 10 sacks and all these quarterback hits a few weeks back versus Washington because it’s going to be hard to get to him how fast he get the ball out of his hands to guys like Tyler Warren and checking it down to those backs Singleton and Allen so he has the opportunity today to continue to play Within his system because as we saw a few weeks back this Oregon defense can really get after the quarterback mhm you mentioned one of his weapons in the Run game that’s Nick Singleton of course I think earlier in the season we we saw him with those nagging injuries and over the past few weeks he’s really playing some of his best football how big will it be for Penn State to get him involved not only in the Run game but the passing game as well enormous because when you look at when you look at his stats Nick Singleton is averaging close to five yards a carry he’s averaging 8.8 yards per reception so that just shows how he can play in different roles he can be used in the Run game and the pass game and outside of Tyler Warren we have not not seen anybody step up for this Penn State offense Drew Aller has been a product of that but I think that’s because his weapons have kind of let him down throughout the course of the season so obviously I’m a running back so I would love to see these backs take over the game and really just put on a very strong performance to kind of rewrite some of the narratives some of the narratives of well Nick Singleton hasn’t played that well Penn State can’t really run the ball that well well you’ve got an opportunity in a conference Championship it’s a number one team in the country who’s got one of the best defenses in all of college football to really submit yourself as a as a group and as backs to go out and just take over this game and try to leave a positive impact that way it’s not so one-dimensional that way the Oregon defense can’t just Scout around and double team Tyler Warren and then you have no other option so it’s going to be Paramount for these guys to get going but you still giv The Edge to Jordan James I I I mean you have to because when you look at the production he’s got double what Nick Singleton has in rushing yards he’s got double what he has in touchdowns and I know two is better than one but when you’ve got one guy that gets that much production it’s hard to go against those results and when I look at these two offenses I see Jordan James helping out his quarterback Dylan Gabriel a lot more I see him affecting the offense opening up passing lanes for the receivers making the pass game open up I’m not seeing that from Nick Singleton yes he’s running the ball a little bit better recently and he does you know make some hay in the passing game but he’s not just completely turning the offense upside down and making people respect him as a number one threat for the offense great way to put it I we’ll see if he proves us wrong a little bit later on um when kickoff uh kicks off here from Lucas Oil Stadium let’s get a game pick here you guys Cardell I’ll start with you who you got in this one I got Penn State I think the defense at front seven with Carter is going to be a little bit too much for Dylan Gabriel and Oregon offense I’m going to go Penn State I love him with the points here’s the thing that concerns me a little bit I also like the under told low scoring game under 50 and a half Drew Aller in the biggest games has kind of shrunk on the big stage even last year I was in Columbus where he didn’t play great against the buck guys this year earlier season against Illinois a win he didn’t do anything spectacular against Ohio State against this year in the loss didn’t look spectacular he’s got to change that narrative I think he can but he’s got to do it if he does they’ll win the game outright if he doesn’t I don’t think the defense can keep it within a field goal I’m going be I’m going to be the one I got to go I got to go Oregon cover today because I’m going to trust the team that has the better head coach in my opinion the quarterback that I trust the most and since we just talked about the running backs the team that has a better running game and when I look at it that’s Oregon so I’ll take them to cover today all right fun is just getting started a countdown to kickoff continues from here at L Lucas Oil Stadium Jeremy will send it back to you in studio thanks very much Jordan good to see everybody cardale keep drinking that tea as Jordan mentioned it is a long day ahead uh for you guys and of course the big 10 Championship coming up tonight on CBS and Paramount plus number three Penn State versus number one Oregon the only unblemished team left in college football they’ll look to go to 13-0 for the first time in program history kickoff set for tonight at 8:00 p.m. [Music] Eastern for
