episode 3: WTKA Roundtable 9/1/2022: It’s a Good Thing
Things discussed:
- McNamara/McCarthy situation: Don't expect them both back next year, but this year it's better to have two. Previous situations: guy who did it with Stanford and the 49ers did it best. Best-case scenario: McNamara wins the Heisman, goes first overall, and McCarthy returns to lead us to a natty.
- 1999 Revisionism: The injuries on the OL were a bigger part of that story than the QB competition.
- Colorado State preview: Wolves in sheep's clothing? (Good one, Craig). They were decent last year because they had Trey McBride (first TE off the board) and that team is almost all gone: one DT and one linebacker are the only guys who were 1st team. They even put the inside linebacker Seth thought was their star behind a 195-pound RS freshman walk-on.
- Depth Chart: Clever to name 20 starters per side. Mason Graham: he's doing it against Michigan's OL so it's got to be real. Zak Zinter is going to be awesome.
- Pass rush has to come from the DTs this year. Mullings: if they could spare him from LB (he'll have to start with NHG out) he'd be an RB. Jimmy Rolder? True freshman linebacker is true freshman.
- Purdue/Penn State and Notre Dame/Ohio State.
