The Mariners win streak ends after a loss in Kansas City last night, but did we really think the Mariners would win all of their remaining games? Maybe some of us did… :30- Mariners Morning After The offense battled back after Bryce Miller gave up a 1st inning 3-run home run and it seemed like it was setting up to be a classic Mariners win, but Matt Brash fell apart in the 8th and things unraveled quickly on the way to a 7-5 Royals win.

We are witnessing a season to remember and the only proper way to celebrate it is to acknowledge Cal-O-Ween. The Mariners are playing good baseball, they aren't just winning on good pitching or high scoring offense, they're finding a way to do it all and if they can keep it up, they'll go far. Of course, the question remains, can they keep it up? No matter how well we've done over these last 10 games, we are still only a half game up on the Astros, so theirs is no room for error. :30- There's been a lot of chatter about the play of Demond Williams Jr and Jonah Coleman, but is it too early to start hyping up postseason awards for the Dawgs? The real test is still a week and a half away against Ohio State. :45- We close out this humpday with one last thing! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The guys are back to talk about Jim Knowles leaving Ohio State, but not taking the OU job. Grant's not happy that OU may have lost a head-to-head battle with Penn State.

On today's Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftblog.com, John Canzano, JohnCanzano.com and Bill Krueger, ROOT Sports. Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftBlog.comjoins the show from the start to chat about the Seahawks win over Miami and the play of the defense.  Is the defense good or is it a result of the opponents they have faced?  Also, you are seeing a trend in the NFL with teams running the football more and it's a trend that will likely continue as the season moves forward.  So, as Puck and Rob discuss, old school football is back!   With all the compliments being thrown the way of the Seahawks, they still have issues on the offensive line, in particular Anthony Bradford. Puck and Rob can't figure out why they continue to play him and not give Christian Haynes a shot, but Rob does have a theory that he ran by Puck on why Bradford may be staying in there for now. Rob continues to gush over the play of Geno Smith and the offense despite them struggling in the middle of the game. D.K. Metcalf continues to be a force in the passing game and the running game looked much better with Zach Charbonnet this past weekend. Both Rob and Puck agreed that Charbonnet is a much better back than people give him credit for.  They wrap up their conversation  with thoughts on the rest of the NFC West and NFC and ask who is really better than Seattle right now?  Seattle is playing some really good football despite the opponents. John Canzano, JohnCanzano.com, is next up and they touch in on  the PAC-12's legal maneuvers, Gonzaga's potential addition to the conference, and how legitimate is John Mateer as a Heisman Trophy candidate?  They touch on Wazzu's chances of running the table and creating chaos in the college football playoffs, the impact of media on what teams get the chance to play in the playoffs, and what happens if the Pac-12 can't land UNLV and Air Force.  Where do they turn next?Lastly, Bill Krueger, ROOT Sports, joins Puck to talk Mariners baseball. They immediately jump into the performance of Bryce Miller and Bill suggests he's the best pitcher on the Mariners staff.  Julio Rodriguez is finishing the season strong and Puck asks Bill what he could do to get off to a better start at the beginning of the season.   Bill reminds Puck that the Mariners still have a shot at the playoffs and tells him not to give up hope.  They wrap up their chat with Bill reflecting on his time playing for the Oakland A's and how much that city and organization meant to him and how sad he is that they are leaving Oakland and that Major League baseball should be ashamed of themselves. Finally, “Hey, What the Puck!?”, Puck wonders why Joel Klatt of FOX has a problem with what Oregon State and Washington State are doing in rebuilding the conference?Rundown00:00 PuckSports Mobile App launch…Pac-12 news…NFL running game not dead 12:32 Rob Staton, SeahawksDraftblog.comjoins the show to talk Seahawks win over the Dolphins.  Play of the defense. Is it really good or bad offenses? 46:03 John Canzano joins the show and gives us the latest with the Pac-12 and Mountain West drama. Does Gonzaga have a future? Mateer for Heisman?01:21:00 Bill Krueger stops by to talk some baseball…Bryce Miller the best starter on the staff?  What can Julio do in the offseason to be more prepared at the beginning of the season?  M's still have a shot..long, but still alive! Bill shares thoughts on the A's leaving Oakland. 01:39:05 “Hey, What the Puck!?” FOX's Joel Klatt's comments about the Pac-12, Oregon State and Washington State. Why?

Featured Musicians: The Missing Chums The Video: [After THE JUMP: The things to be said.] --------------------- 1. Texas After Review starts at the top The defensive story isn't that bad. Down to down they can hang. Jyaire Hill is a work in progress that Texas picked on and broke a few times. Their problem seems to be Wink, who has NFL ideas for 3rd down that are at fault for them not getting off the field. Busts go back to running too much stuff. They can fix this. Offensively they can't fix this. Their OL is just not good. Priebe's 2023 film was more honest than the 2024 offseason talk: he's just a guy. Link and Giudice are so far from being playable. Don't think we've ever had the program talk guys up so much and this be the result. ALSO the offensive brain trust doesn't know how to use their personnel. We're just guys on the internet but 13 snaps each for Mullings and Bredeson when those are two of your best weapons is inexplicable. It looks like they're just trying to be last year's offense with Donovan Warren. 2. Arkansas State: Offense starts at 22:11 Return Jaylen Raynor who started as a freshman. He's a runner who will take off when his 2nd read isn't there. Tackles are in rough shape since losing LT Makilan Thomas to injury; he's questionable for this game. Dangerman is wide receiver Corey Rucker, who plays big for a 6'0/214 guy. Butch Jones offense: spread to dink with a few bombs to keep you honest. 3. Arkansas State: Defense starts at 32:56 Defense has a lot of transfers, one guy that Alex liked was edge Bryan Whitehead, a Liberty transfer, but Seth notes that Tulsa has one of the worst LTs in the country; is Evan Link bad for a P4 player or bad for a football player? Safeties are a real weak spot: not fast and not big, they should be double-moved by Loveland. 4. Unverified Voracity Live starts at 43:11 RIP to James Earl Jones, who was a tremendous flex and a tremendous Michigan story. RIP also to Greg Harden, our former guest who had a hand in creating the Michigan program culture. Less sad RIPs: the Big Ten being immune from lawsuits, as Denard Robinson and Braylon Edwards show House isn't going to settle this. In other legal news, the ACC seems to be winning against FSU's big threat of having the state of Florida declare sovereign immunity. Pac 2 is now up to Pac 6, but don't expect Cal/Stanford to join any time soon, since they culturally want nothing to do with Wazzu and Oregon State, and they're held by the same Grant of Rights as the other ACC teams. Maybe UNLV if they bring along Reno.
