May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and the psychology of your 20s is breaking down the science behind the biggest roadblocks we face. I was six years into my career, the 80-hour weeks, and just the first one in, the last one out, and I ended up burning out. There was a large chunk of my 20s that I, like, was just so wanting to, like, be out of that phase out of my skin,
Starting point is 00:00:57 and I just, like, really regret not living in the present more. to have everything figured out right now. You just need to understand yourself a little bit better. Listen to the psychology of your 20s on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Why are we all so obsessed with romance? On the Radio 831 podcast, join us Sanjana Basker and Tyler McCall as we unpack all the trending tropes, fuzzy adaptations, book talk drama, and celebrity love stories with hot takes and sharp guests.

Starting point is 00:02:10 or wherever you get your podcasts. TurboCity! Boys, oh shit. Welcome back to another episode of the locker room. Your boy is back. I was in the Foxhole last week in the hospital. Shout out to you guys for all the comments and messages with the congratulations and everything else.
Starting point is 00:02:24 The boy Delaney, he's back in the house. All the boys are back. We're going to have fun. If you're unfamiliar with the show, top half of the episode, All-N-FL. We're going to be covering Thursday night football. Steelers at the Browns, our favorite games of the week, our ballsy picks where we pick an underdog to upset somebody.
Starting point is 00:02:39 Then the back half of the episode, we're going college football. The college football playoff is playing itself out. Every game now has implications. We're going to be talking trophy game out with Indiana and Ohio State. Our tier talk, we have a massive game with religion versus the military this weekend. And we also have our fan call-in segment. It's going to be a great time. And then also, little sneak peek, little sneak.
Starting point is 00:02:59 peak of our Black Friday merch that's going to be on sale here here in a week, a week, I believe, a week. It's going to be fun, boys, so make sure you subscribe, leave comments throughout the episode. Let's go get paid. Let's go get laid. Boys and girls, welcome back to the locker room. I'm so happy to have the boys back in the chairs. I'm so happy to not be sitting alone on this show. It was a great time last week, but there's a level of stress that comes with it. You got to paint a picture. You got to make sure people are enjoying themselves now. I can sit back and lean a little bit on the boys a little bit, but they're 9-inch day.
Starting point is 00:03:49 come some dad stats. Will Compton gets coming with. As always, please subscribe. Please comment. And Will pointed out earlier, we got merch coming out next week. Let's get around and pause for Will having a kid. I don't know how many times I'm going to do this. This is the second or third time I've done this. But listen, brother, having two kids. It's good to be back. It's good to just be around the boys. No question. This past week, obviously, before we start, let's shout out our presenting sponsor, Fireball whiskey. The locker room is presented by Fireball. Fireball is the perfect shot for game day, whether you're buying those sneaky little shoes before going into the stadium
Starting point is 00:04:22 or going big with the fireball cake for your tailgate or just taking a sip on the locker room, whether it's a pregame shot in the tailgate lot or a celebratory touchdown shot at the bar, no matter what, it's guaranteed to ignite your game day. But yeah, bro, it's the boy Taylor, he was throwing me a lifeline, a best friend lifeline, like, hey, bro, if you don't want to roll in this week, like, I got you, I got your back, I'll lift it up,
Starting point is 00:04:44 and I'm just telling them like, I need the trenches, I need the boys. Like I just need to be around the boys. Get out for a few hours. Just get around the fellas. Talk some shit, bust some balls. But it's good to be back. And I do have to say I have some, I have some business to uphold on my end.
Starting point is 00:05:01 You thought I forget, huh? I know you didn't forget it because I was about to get you on this. That Miami game. Remember Miami? Yeah. Yeah. I was wrong.
Starting point is 00:05:09 Yeah. I was wrong. Here's 500 large. Thanks, man. You're going to make a pet? Huh? He put 14 years in the NFL. He knows, but the way the look we had in our eyes
Starting point is 00:05:19 when we made that bet. We knew it was real. It was real. I can't believe he remembered. Oh, he got to because he put it all on it on X. Talking about, I can't wait to call you dumb. I did. Will is a villain on Twitter.
Starting point is 00:05:33 I was trying to spice up the rivalry. Fireball, spice up the rivalry. People was retweeting it to me. I didn't see. I'm like, I can't wait. I'm trying to get you say something back. You got to be engaging. No, I just hit you with the clown.
Starting point is 00:05:47 You should have hit me with the video afterwards. Just farting or something like that. Who knows? Dude, you in the farts. Delaney, how was California? Did you enjoy yourself? I did, actually. You know, I did it.
Starting point is 00:05:56 You know, they got that good flower out there, you know. Good for you. Yeah, yeah. Congrats on getting high in California. What do you stay? Do you still go back to Crenshaw? Do you stay in your old house? Oh, who's in San Francisco?
Starting point is 00:06:08 You're in the Frisco. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Okay. Nice. Did you download the app where you can see the shit around the city? Shit, what is that? There's an actual app in San Francisco.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Well, you're in San Francisco that you can look at where the human shit is. Don't they got the robots that come pick them up, though. I thought the robots. They are robots now? Yeah, they clean up the shit. Man, Musk can really do it all, can he? I mean, it's Silicon Valley, man. Silicon Valley.
Starting point is 00:06:32 I'll set up. No fucking doubt about it. Silicon Valley, perfect pronunciation. That is fucking it, dude. Before we get into the game of the week, I do want to bring Mitch up to the podium real quick. Because right now, what is it, November 20th? It's November 20th. This show's coming out tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:06:48 6 a.m. But tonight, that was almost crazy. Oh, I'm becoming. Tonight is a massive deal in the Nashville sports community. What is it? The Nashville Sports League, semi-finals and a possible final for the team balls deep, which Mitch Carlsey, I'm assuming, are the captain of that team? Yes, I am. If everybody listening, they probably think this is a pretty big deal. It's not, but we want to celebrate our boy. Yeah. We want to hype a boy. Yeah, we want for our local rec league. You guys are you No. Yeah, right now. And you guys are playing the Burgess Kittens who are five and three. Semifinal. Semifinals. I mean, boys. Are you a quarterback? What do you got here? You quarterback
Starting point is 00:07:26 and safety? Yeah, I'm quarterback when we don't have our normal quarterback. Our normal quarterback is he played in Miami Ohio for a little bit and then transferred out somewhere else. But yes, I am safety. I'm wide receiver, quarterback. You do it all. I'm a little Swiss Army knife. Swiss Army knife. There you go. People can check out your highlights where? At Mitch Carsley, Twitter. Yeah, Mitch.com, yeah, on X, on Twitter. And then because it's the end of the season, I will be dropping my season highlight tape. That comes out.
Starting point is 00:07:56 Yo, ho. Ju-season highlight tape. That comes out. That'll come out tonight. The season highlight tape? Wait, wait. Before the championship? Okay, no, we'll do Thursday.
Starting point is 00:08:09 It'll come out first thing. Yeah. Thursday morning or Thursday night? Don't doubt yourself, right? Do Thursday night so when people see this, they'll know where to find it and they'll want to see the highlight tape. Yes, yes. Yes, Thursday.
Starting point is 00:08:18 I forget this is coming out on Thursday. So, yes, Thursday evening, it'll be on Instagram. It'll be on Twitter. Wherever you can find Mitch Garzley. On all the social apps, it'll be out there. Before we get you out of here, what's your prediction for your own stat line tonight? Both games. Both games?
Starting point is 00:08:35 Like, in total or just game by game? Give me in total. I want to know in total. Yeah, don't take too long. After today, I'm going to stop thinking about record in football. I'll probably throw for four touchdowns, maybe. be catch two or three. And I'm hoping I had at least two picks.
Starting point is 00:08:51 Oh, all right. Wait, wait, wait, one more thing. Are y'all going to get Super Bowl rings or a bell? No, I think the league, like, gives us, like, cups and we'll, like, take a picture and we'll make it on our Instagram. That's my idea. It'll make it on our Instagram? If you don't hit that stat line, will you dye your hair, bleak blonde?
Starting point is 00:09:06 I mean, that's a bit. I mean, you just, that's a confidence level. I want to figure out where you're coming from. I mean, I won't dye my hair, but I'll do something else. You say you're going to beat them about 30. We'll say if you don't get the stat line, you lose a paycheck. That sounds fair to me. Well, what if I do hit it?
Starting point is 00:09:21 It's like a fine. What if I do hit it? You get one and a half times. Will's going to pay that, though. One and a half times, hang on. Whatever his check is, he just gets half a more of that check. We'll throw you in a bonus. We'll throw a bonus in.
Starting point is 00:09:35 Do you see Delaney's? How much is a bonus? I mean, like. $500 each. Wait, how we go? A lot each. Five hundred. Like, $1,500.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Like $1,500. He'll get $1,000. He'll get paid two? Delaney's got to pay two. He's involved in the locker room right now. Delaney just got $500 right there. Yeah. I don't.
Starting point is 00:09:52 I don't. You got the most money out of all. Wait, but how are we going to know the stats? Oh, you're going to a couple weeks. Yeah, so if you go to the game, you keep the stats, so we'll know. He'll know. I'm not going to. I'm not going to.
Starting point is 00:10:05 I'm not going to trust the final stat line. The final stat line is throw for four touchdowns. Catch two or three. We're going to put that up to three. Two picks. He's got to catch two, but he's got to have two. He's got to have two picks. Two picks.
Starting point is 00:10:18 Two picks, two receiving touchdowns, four throwing touchdowns, $500 each from the boys. If you don't get it, you got to die your hair blonde, dude. No, he loses a paycheck. Oh, that's right. Nope. All right, thank you, Mitch. All right, Mitch. They can't run, though.
Starting point is 00:10:35 I thought, oh, you can run in your league? It doesn't get to. That's not part of a statling. He's got a throw for four, catch two. Yeah, he already. Yeah, no, he said that. Yeah, no, definitely. I wonder what the odds on that would be.
Starting point is 00:10:47 Yeah, minus 200 for a bit. Yeah, minus like that? Yeah, I mean, it's minus 200. I've seen it. All right, game of the week this week. Will talked about it in the intro. Steelers at the Browns. Steelers are your favorite minus 30 and a half total.
Starting point is 00:11:00 The game is 36 and a half points. Dillan, let's start with you, brother. How are we feeling? Oh, man, that's Thursday night game is going to be a. Yeah, Steelers at the Browns. At the Browns. At the Browns. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, the average.
Starting point is 00:11:13 Sorry. Where? No, this Thursday night football. It's Thursday night. Thursday night football, Jared. You are the producer of this show. And look at me blindly. Just been like, yep, you're right.
Starting point is 00:11:21 And we already have to do a because he fucked up and ended last week. Yeah, no, this is Thursday. Thursday night football. Steelers at Brown spread as minus three and a half for the Steelers over under 36 and a half. Wait sport clips in a second. You got it? Hey, why you got a middle part still from bobbing apples yesterday? And you know why he said, Ed Reed, because the games of the week is sport clips.
Starting point is 00:11:43 Yeah, and you said game of the week. Oh, do I? Yeah. Okay, so I can take accountability. This is how we do it over my own. Hey, I could think I just had a kid the way my brain's operating right now. We just got to get shit done. You did?
Starting point is 00:11:55 All right, Delaney, Thursday night football. So again, you know, the Steelers, five-game winning streak right now. The Browns are one and four at home. Stillers leading the AFC North. This is a no-brainer for me. You've got to understand it. Russell Wilson, yes, I doubted him. He has came in.
Starting point is 00:12:13 He has made. plays he has motivated the Steelers he got um uh George Pickens plan making plays blocking showing some physicality out there but it's going to depend on the defense you got JJ you got T.J. Watts and Cameron Hayward those guys go out there you can stop the Browns the Browns is a team where they got a quarterback that everyone loves and he can motivate them but this week I don't think they got it done I think Steelers is going to answer the call it's going to minus three and a half I'll be I'll be I'm I feel like they're going to get that probably even score more.
Starting point is 00:12:46 I think the total is 36 and a half. I'm going to stay away from that just because I just don't know where. That's a low scoring game. Yeah, yeah, it's a low scoring game. You think it's a low scoring game? I think it's a low scoring game, but I kind of like the under. You think that 36? But I don't necessarily like to do Thursday night football.
Starting point is 00:13:03 Yeah, yeah. They've been putting up points. They have been lately. They have been. But I'm going to take the Steelers to beat the Browns for sure. The only thing that scares me with the Steelers is like just kind of obviously, a short week and coming off of an emotional win, a physical game. A physical game.
Starting point is 00:13:19 That's the only thing that scares me. But I do like, I like this dude as well. They do a good job offensively. Like Russell Wilson, he can hit the deep ball, but he's not a quarterback. They're not, that offense, Arthur Smith, they're not going out there trying to, like, force any explosive plays. They kind of let the game come up. Run game, build off play action, screens.
Starting point is 00:13:36 And Russ is a cat who can hit the dive down the field. Like you said, George Pickens is playing. He's even playing after an interception. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. I like the Steelers, too. I think their defense is dominant. Browns just don't have a lot to play for.
Starting point is 00:13:49 The whole divisional game, Browns and Steelers scare me in the short week, but I'm going to stick. I'm going to go Steelers. I love, like, you're right with Arthur Smith, the way he calls games. He lets the game come to him. He doesn't just try to press and put a square peg in a round hole type situation. I like the Steelers in this game. I don't know how, I think it's going to be closer than we all think. Oh, are you going to go Browns plus three and have like field goal?
Starting point is 00:14:13 last minute. I'm thinking it's going to be tight. I really think this game is going to be an overgame. 36 and a half points. Obviously, the Steelers have a great defense. And I got into a little bit of a warm hole with this game. I went and I started looking at different podcasts and stuff like that. Found this like local Cleveland, four
Starting point is 00:14:29 middle-aged white guys just screaming and yelling about Jim Schwartz and how the D.C. is terrible. They're like 15 in the league. They're actually really good. Yeah. They're just not like, I think they were like top three last year. They're screaming. They're just mad. These guys live in Ohio.
Starting point is 00:14:44 I don't even remember what the podcast name more, but they were literally screaming and fussing about Jim Schwartz. Oh, he's got to get the fuck out of there. Kevin Stefanski, he's got to go. When Kevin Dorsey takes over, right after Deshaun Watson gets hurt, there's a little thing going on. Okay, is the offense better because James Winston is or Kevin Dorsey because he came from the Buffalo Bills.
Starting point is 00:15:01 With James, he's got two games over 300 yards. He's got three touchdowns and three interceptions. In the game against the Saints, the only score 14 points. Two of those were both of those touchdowns, word touchdowns thrown by James Winston. Jerry Judy's coming along. He has 146 yards. The problem with the Browns isn't moving the ball.
Starting point is 00:15:20 The problem is them getting into the end zone. I think with that by week, they'm able to charge along a little bit. James is having a better understanding of the entire playbook. He's taking the reins in a big way. I think the Browns are going to find themselves scoring a little bit more. And what the Browns do a bad job on defense is handling like movement pocket passes. When you go, it's like a loosey type of thing where the whole line goes to left.
Starting point is 00:15:40 Russell Wilson dips out. and then he finds a guy deep in deep on the left side of the field. Shout out Lucy. Shout out Lucy. So I think this game's an overgame. I think it's 30. Take the Browns. I think it's 36 and a half.
Starting point is 00:15:52 I want you to tell me how the game's going to end because you hit one a couple weeks ago. Yeah. Do it. Don't pressure me right now. Just to have fun. I'm having fun. I'm telling you what my pick is. My biggest 30.
Starting point is 00:16:03 Do it. Oh, no. I start chaining my own thing. I'll take the Browns. Yes, yes. I'll take the Browns. But I'm also taking the over. So put that in there, Jerry.
Starting point is 00:16:12 I'll write the over with you. Make sure you take that over. Jared, I want the over as well. But you said you said you were filling the under. I was, but I'm saying the Thursday night football games, do we begin? Fireworks. Fireworks. We've been getting fireworks.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Two years ago, I think they were talking about getting rid of the Thursday night game because it was such a terrible. It was just awful. No points were being scored. This is the first year when it was on Amazon too and everybody just hated it. Hated it. Hated it. But I do like under 20 points. I think we all should apologize to Russell Wilson.
Starting point is 00:16:37 I know I need to. I was like, I said it. I was like, this is the right move. No, he said it was the right move. I just said I know I thought shit. I want to formally apologize to Russell Wilson. I thought you were done at the Broncos. I thought you were ass.
Starting point is 00:16:49 I thought you were terrible. I take that back. He's kind of reinventing yourself, you're kind of reinventing yourself. The mobility has kind of gone away a little bit. He's found himself in the pocket presence. He's handling business. He's playing his game.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Well, I just think it's the office coordinator, so shout out Arthur Smith. Yeah, but Arthur Smith ain't throwing the ball. But he's putting them in the right situation. There's a combination. It's a combination. That's why football is the greatest team sport of all time. Indeed, but sometimes it's that system. You're just not willing to get Russ's credit.
Starting point is 00:17:16 No, I'm going to apologize to you're going back. I'm going to get Arthur Smith. He's doing his thing, but you can't forget Arthur Smith. Everyone knows Arthur Smith. Nobody's going to give him his flowers all the time. No one talks about Arthur Smith more on any of the show than our show. Of course, but I'm saying, again, it comes down to. But Russ is playing his game.
Starting point is 00:17:33 Russ is kind of reinventing himself. Russ is playing good ball. He's playing smart ball right now. He's playing good quarterback. He is limited, but he is playing well. He's a good quarterback right now. Yeah, he is. All right.
Starting point is 00:17:44 That's how we need. Game of the week. Games of the week presented by sport clips. There you go, Jared. This football season, don't walk around with helmet hair like a total rookie. You've been in the game long enough to know that how you wear your hair matters and just because your team's mascot is a Wolverine doesn't mean you have to look like one up top. Keep your head in the game and go to sport clips.
Starting point is 00:18:05 They're pro stylists that have mastered the X's and O's of men's hair so you can get a tight fade while kicking back and watching some fade routes on TV. They'll have a perfectly crafted game plan to make you look your best. No halftime adjustments needed. Remember, the difference between an okay cut and a great cut is called Sport Clips. It is a game changer. Game changer. I need to go to Sport Clips. Fellas, what's your favorite game of the week?
Starting point is 00:18:28 What's your favorite game of the week to bet on? I'll go. I'll go. Lions. The amount of points that these boys have brought up, I have been just going and looking up Dan Campbell videos of him getting emotional about his team, sitting in interviews, and the person interviewing is like, he seems like you really care about this team truly.
Starting point is 00:18:45 He's tearing up saying, I can't let them down. I think about it every single day because I know these guys are going to let them down. Their offense is top five in every category. Jared Goff, other than the one game with those five picks, these boys are going to sweep the entire AFC South, which breaks my heart. They're playing the Colts at the Colts.
Starting point is 00:19:05 They're favored by seven and a half points. This team seems like a team. I hate saying this word because I feel like people say it all the time. is a team of destiny right now. Look at the offensive line. Taylor Decker, Graham Glasgow, Frank Ragnow, Kevin Zeitler and Penae Sewell. That is a star-studded offensive line.
Starting point is 00:19:21 And I love that you shot at the O-line, too, because everyone knows of all the weapons that they have on all. You do, their defense is great, their weapons are awesome. These five guys are the reason why they have so much success. The Colts have struggled in the run game. They've also struggled in the past game a little bit. Anthony Richardson gets bench. Joe Flackle has a bad game against the Buffalo Bills.
Starting point is 00:19:40 They put Anthony Richardson back in. He has a decent. He actually has a really good game. A really good game against the Jets. But it's kind of had a little juice. It's the Jets. And I think you run into a buzzsaw like the Detroit Lions, a city that we talked about on the bus where they are the whole city.
Starting point is 00:19:56 There's a woman showing us around with tears in her eyes because her dad passed away a year ago. And she's just like, I wish you could see this. I wish you could see what the Detroit Lions are doing because they're not only lifting up that franchise. They're lifting up the entire city. Oh, yeah. And it's not stopping this week. They were minus eight. Now they're minus seven and a half.
Starting point is 00:20:14 They're run away with this. They're going to run away with this game. They're going to sweep the Eiff's stuff. This is the best start they've had since 1934. That's ridiculous. The boys are just buzzing. And they're putting up 40 points a game. They're going crazy right now.
Starting point is 00:20:28 I don't see it stopping anytime soon. Dan Campbell has the culture. He's got everything. I got the lions. He doesn't have a masculine dog. Is it Indy? You see his little handheld puppy's got a little sissy dog. Ain't nothing wrong with that.
Starting point is 00:20:39 A little sissy dog. Hey, nothing wrong with that. That's his wife's dog. Nothing puts a smile on my face than seeing that big dude. It's his wife's dog. What do you want to do? You know what I'm saying? She probably went out of town.
Starting point is 00:20:51 Let him hold the dog. Let him hold the dog. Like, come on, man. I'm like, what? I love Dan Campbell. I'm just saying he's got a little pussified dog. I mean, yeah, a little pustified dog.
Starting point is 00:21:00 That's all right. Sometimes you need a little stuff. You need a little something. You need a little something. You need a little balance them out. It's like having girls. Yeah. Right?
Starting point is 00:21:07 Yeah. A couple of Hellcats you and I look at us now. Yeah. Nuter. Nuter. We're neutered. Wait, so you don't think the Jets had a good defense, though? They're good defense, but they...
Starting point is 00:21:17 I know. They have a good defense. They're just... The culture is lost. I mean, yeah. PFT said it. If Aaron Rogers wanted a chip on her shoulder, he should have took the backs. Like, that's how much in trouble...
Starting point is 00:21:26 No, but... Yeah. You know, I'm not... I'm probably going to stay... I'm going to stay away from this game. I kind of like the Colts. With the points. Lions are going to win.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Yeah. I like the coach with the... Lions are going to win. I think the lines are just winning in Houston, the way they won in Houston was a great reset for them. And they go and they did what they did against the Jags. Obviously that line was 13
Starting point is 00:21:47 and a half. Yeah, that was crazy. And they just blew it off the floor down. With how the Texas are playing like Colts have an outside shot. Like this is so, it's such a must win game. Obviously they understand the stage of playing a team like the lines. They know it's
Starting point is 00:22:03 going to be tough. But at the end of the day, like, you know that facility is humming right now because they do have a shot. They have a shot. They absolutely have a shot as far as like going the distance, going to, no. But making it into the playoffs. I'm just saying, think about it. I understand what you're saying.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Two, hey, hey, we bring it up a lot. But the two and four Titans, 2019, you're sitting there. It's week 11. Can't City Chiefs right before. It's week 11. All I'm saying is like they have a shot. Like you guys had a shot. You guys beat the best team in the league.
Starting point is 00:22:32 And then you guys go on a run. And even though when you get counted out, you just, you understand. what the mentality is that you are a couple of places. Because this is the NFL is not like college football. Right, I'm with you. But here's the difference. The difference is the Tennessee Titans had a good defense in a sustainable run game. And once we made a switch at quarterback, it was better.
Starting point is 00:22:47 The Colts have already gone through them, make a switch at quarterback. They've already gone through the injuries. The thing about Anthony Richardson doing so well against the Jets makes me feel more confident in the fact that the Lions are going to handle business this weekend and win by more than a seven and a half points. You watch his stat line the way it fluctuates and all of the starts. It's a great game. It's a bad game.
Starting point is 00:23:04 It's a bad game. Yeah. The roller coaster, he just hasn't had to develop me yet. They're saying Anthony Rich and he's becoming a first-in-last-out guy now. I love that. I absolutely love that. And you know what? For Anthony Richardson's career, I hope I'm wrong.
Starting point is 00:23:16 But I don't think I am. Okay. Yeah. What you got, Dee? I mean, I'm going to have to rock with the Lions. You already know that for sure. I think it's an easy one to, like, yeah, lions are disintegrating everybody. Desciting.
Starting point is 00:23:27 Right, why would I not go with those boys right now? They show me that they can't win a game. Right now, all they do is win games. Yeah. And a crazy fashion, too. Yeah. Yeah. And the thing that bothers me about, or not bought, yeah, it bothers me about the Colts is
Starting point is 00:23:41 that they have always been a franchise that is well coach, understand the rules, and play like consistent football. When? When they're not good forever? They've been that way forever, dude. Like for the last decade, Peyton Manning, they had great culture. Oh, you're talking about the Colts? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:58 So I thought you said Detroit. No, no, no. I'm talking about the Colts. Oh, yeah, definitely. They have just always been a well-run franchise. Definitely. So much so that their fans are the most trained fans in all of the NFL. True.
Starting point is 00:24:07 When their offenses on the field, you can literally, it's like before we start this show, it's quiet. It's calm. You can hear a mouse in the corner, ain't a piece of cheese. No, they know how to do it for sure. And it's in indie, right? Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's in indie.
Starting point is 00:24:20 And all this up and down, they're still six and five. Yeah, that's true. Shout out of quitting. Nelson, dude. Well, I'm still going to go with Detroit. I just think they're going to get away. What game do I love? What game do?
Starting point is 00:24:30 I love. I actually love the Cardinals versus the Seahawks at the Seahawks. at the Seahawks. The reason why I love this game because I love an underdog. Kyle Murray, everyone talked about he doesn't study. He's on his PlayStation.
Starting point is 00:24:40 He don't interact with his team. And now you're seeing this guy come out. He's blossoming like a fucking rose or a sunflower, whatever you want to call it. Blossoming nonetheless. Yeah. And they lean the NFC.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Blossoming like a dandelion. Yeah, they lead to NFC West right now, which is no one thought that was going to happen. No one thought that they are all right there. They all in the pack. Everybody's right there. But he's leading. They are leading. Right now. Hey, you know what it is. Seahawks win this game. They're now in the league of the NSC. Yeah. You know the video going across all the NSU West right now in those facilities is that horse video that variable would always show. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:19 Middle of the pack. In the pack. Just keep the blinders on. Don't look at the outside noise. Trust your jockey. Let's go one game at a time. And he's a jockey size. He's jockey size. So he's perfect for this race. Okay. At the end of the day, you guys. Jay's Connor, you got Marvin Harris, Jr. And those guys just been playing great. But it's going to depend on the defense that ain't been so good. They ain't got too many big names on their defense. But I think if they can get to Seattle,
Starting point is 00:25:46 erupt whatever they got going on, they passing, stop the run. The Cardinals offense is going to put points on the board and the Seahawks are going to have to stop them. So with that being said, I'm taking Cardinals plus one. This is a must. It's a must win. So you think the Cardinals are going to lose by one?
Starting point is 00:26:01 No, no, he's saying he likes the Cardinals. I'm taking the Cardinals. The win. Okay. It's plus one. That was my guess for your Balzy pick. Yeah, yeah. I was going to be the Cardinals.
Starting point is 00:26:12 Yeah, it was like minus $1.35. Yeah. My ballsy pick is a gangster. Besides the Cardinals who are sitting six and four, Seahawks, Rams, and 49ers are all five and five. I know. It is just right now. I like the Seahawks getting right this week. I like the Seahawks too.
Starting point is 00:26:25 I'm taking the Seahawks just because it's streaky. Like they'll have bad, like they have bad games, bro. Yeah. But in Seattle. as well. Dude, it's such a hard place to play. It's so loud. I know. I hear that all the time, but if you're a pro, shit, don't mean anything. You hear it all the time and you played in that
Starting point is 00:26:39 division. That's what I'm saying. Let's go. Let's go. I hear it all the time. He ain't wrong. He ain't wrong. Washington did go up. 2017. Give me Seattle. Double-digit point underdogs. You got out of there with the win. Willie, who you got for your game of the week? Game of the week. My game of the week is going to be the Kansas City Chiefs at the Carolina Panthers. I know
Starting point is 00:26:59 I'm known. I'm notorious for being a hater on the Kansas City Chiefs, but I like him this week. I like him against Carolina. And I got a little whiteboard talk. Do you mind if I do some whiteboard talk? Go ahead, kid. Get up there. I know you're the king of what you do. They're definitely going to put hands on them, boys. They're taking an L.
Starting point is 00:27:15 11 points, though. That's a lot. They're over against a spread. They're over for against the spread when it's a double digits. Carolina, though. Come on, Will. All right. The first thing that I love that the Kansas City Chiefs did this past week.
Starting point is 00:27:29 gets Buffalo, they got Xavier Worthy in the mix. The last two games, I think he'd only have one reception. But this week against the bills, even though they lost, the bills are a superior football team, but they got Xavier Worthy in the mix. You start out, right out of the game, where's my red pin? There it is. Interception. Nice.
Starting point is 00:27:45 You start off. First play the game, you've got to reverse to start. I'm not going to draw up the entire formation because what I want to get to is the creativity that they have on offense. But just Xavier Worthy. They get creative. He starts out out here. He's doing a reverse.
Starting point is 00:27:57 He's got perimeter screens to where he comes up, sets it up, and comes back with the tackle coming out to block for him. You have these X plays to where they're throwing it deep to him. He can do everything. They even have this flash play to where you have, say, three receivers over here. We'll get this going. And he is the three receiver. And he's going behind the line of scrimmage to catch one on the flat.
Starting point is 00:28:17 That's the play he scored on. But they do a lot of created things to get Xavier Worthy involved. And you like to see that after he had a couple of down weeks because when the Chiefs are playing well, you see Xavier Worthy touching the rock a lot. Now what I want to get to is how. creative this offense gets. You get in the second quarter, Josh Allen, he throws an abysmal intercession where he kind of just floats it. The chiefs pick it off there around midfield. They start off with a run. Another thing that they have, they have a running back, a big running
Starting point is 00:28:42 back who can run in between the tackles. They have perimeter players on the outside. You obviously know Travis Kelsey, Noah Gray. They're playing very well on defense, like number three in total yards. But you look at this drive after Josh Allen threw a pick, and this is where I lean on the creativity of Andy Reed. They run the ball first with the Kareem Hunt. he gets about two yards. So you're looking at second and eight. Usually that's more of like a passing down. You might sit more in zone as a defense.
Starting point is 00:29:07 And if you look at what they did, they got in, they got in 12 personnel. Taylor, what is 12 personnel? One running back, two tight ends. One running back and two tight ends. They had, there we go, Hardman right out there. Slipping there for a second.
Starting point is 00:29:22 I know, I called on you. It's like, it was looking at my sheet. You're like, oh shit, coach is called on me. But when you look at 12 personnel and you line up an ace formation. What are most offenses doing? Come over here, I got four different slots for you. You're going to run stretch.
Starting point is 00:29:37 You're going to run stretch. C.G. You're going to run a power play to where you get a power from the other side. You might just run simple belly. You might run off of the stretch. Play action, a boot rolling over the top, or a conventional pass play out of 12 personnel
Starting point is 00:29:51 when you got both tight and sitting in there is just a stick route, some quick game. Call that Omaha. Call that Omaha. But what the Chiefs did coming out is they did a couple different things. They did this two plays in a row. They lined up in this formation.
Starting point is 00:30:03 The first one, Hardman, he's your gimmicks guy. He's your jet sweep guy. When 17's in the game, you always got to be alert for him to be jetting across the formation. He runs a jet. And what they do here is they run a rollout screen. So when you're a defender and you're sitting there in 12 personnel,
Starting point is 00:30:21 you understand that 17's in there, hey, alert the jet, but also some conventional running plays. They're in 12 personnel. Maybe they're trying to get Kareem hunt the ball. Maybe they're going to be in some play action. But what this rollout does is it's not a conventional play action pass where you set up the running back steps down at the line of scrimbage, you kind of come up to the line and then you're biting back and dropping back.
Starting point is 00:30:40 Or it's not just a drop back pass or if you have your eyes right, you can see a center, you can notice what's going on with the tackles on a screenplay. They run this rollout screen off of a jet to where they send these guys deep and they sit in here. They obviously block it up and he nestles in here for a middle tight end screen. They gash him and get a first down there. And what they do is they line up in the same formation. They line up in the exact same formation.
Starting point is 00:31:06 And they switch 84. Sorry, I don't know that white boy's name, 84. And then you got Hardman out here. And all they do here, again, they line up in this personnel again. You might be thinking, Kareem Hunt's going to get the ball now. After they just hit him with the screen. Or maybe play action, 87's got his hand in the dirt. But they just run a jet sweep now with Hardman, and they gash them again.
Starting point is 00:31:26 And they get it going. They run down. They end up scoring. That's when they go 14 to 13. But that is the creativity of the Kansas City Chiefs. When you look at that offense, you see them having a lot of perimeter plays, X plays, you got my homes in the back. But what they do with creating these conventional formations, again, 12 personnel, ace formation,
Starting point is 00:31:44 and they get creative with inside those. That is why I love the Chiefs. I love the Chiefs to cover minus 10 and a half. They're coming off of a loss to the bills. We're walking over. I should walk in front. They're coming off a loss to the bills. They're one of the best ranked defenses.
Starting point is 00:31:58 They got Kareem Hunter who can run between the tackles. I love the Chiefs this week. Chiefs Kingdom. I'm righting with you guys with my money. I'm shocked you didn't know who Watson was. I thought he would have been on your all-white team. He's got a shot, but again, I haven't gotten to the receivers yet. You know, receivers.
Starting point is 00:32:12 He more like a tight-in slash receiver to me. Yeah, because he blocks. When you got 84 in there again, and when you're in 12 personnel and 84's in the game, you're thinking more, hey, this could be a run. Because you don't got D-hop in there. It's not like you've got Hardman and worthy on the opposite sides. you got 84 white boy in there. Hey, alert the run, alert the run.
Starting point is 00:32:31 They hit you with this rollout screen. Yeah, exactly. They hit you with this rollout screen and then come back and do Jet with Hardman. They can do it all. They're just not as good as the bills. I want to do defensive stuff, but like I was telling you,
Starting point is 00:32:41 like I would almost have to like teach a concept. And when you got going on like consecutive back-to-back plays, it's fun to listen to and like kind of watch it unfold. And when I saw that them get in 12 personnel and run those two different plays, which is as a linebacker, You're not thinking, you know, you're not thinking this middle, tight-in screen. You're thinking they're probably trying to get Cream Hunterball, 84's in the game.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Hey, alert, jet, we're just going to move a gap over, but they're going to run inside the tackles. But when I saw those two back-to-back, I was like, oh, that's a T. Louis Whiteboard talk talk. You can also do a defense to the fronts. Like, so you can talk defense. Like, you do the 12 personnel, do a defense that most of the time you will play to a 12 personnel. Yeah. So to give them the- Yeah, but 12 are just going to run base. You're going to run your base.
Starting point is 00:33:24 You're four-third. Well, it depends what. with two tight ends in the game. Because, like, we had, we had Tiger. Then we had just regular 12 personnel. That's the bigger guy. So you'll know about different personnel. Fast 12 personnel.
Starting point is 00:33:37 Yeah, you get that. Right. Again, because when 87's in the game, it's like you get that pair look. And 87's one with his hand in the dirt or Delaney Walker's with his hand in the dirt. You're thinking, hey, this is more of a past situation. That's a more of a past situation. If they're sitting off the bone, they got more of the blocking tight in with their hand in the dirt,
Starting point is 00:33:51 you're like, all right, hey, a little rabbit in the boys. Yeah, yeah. The thing I like about the Chiefs, actually, I don't, really like this, but they always, they never run away from the run or from the pass. When they're even in four minutes situations and they're in that third and two or whatever, you think most teams are to keep the clock running. They still choose to do those like tied in little H screens, sometimes hit the jet or a small little shovel pass.
Starting point is 00:34:14 It's because they got like guys too like Travis Kelsey who they just, they understand the IQ at such a high level that's like, hey, I know the route says this, but based on what I'm going to get, I'm going to react. I'm going to be sitting in the hunting. Great example of that. is the Bill's Chiefs playoffs a couple years ago. When the bills score with like 30 seconds left in the clock and they go down and kick the field goal. Travis basically saying, hey, I'm going in the middle of field.
Starting point is 00:34:34 I'm going right here because they have the down-down timeout situation. You said last week in locker room, too, what sucked about the bills winning is the Chiefs might have to get them. They're going back to the Super Bowl. You never know. A lot of good teams. I wanted short-term pain for a long-term success. Let's let the Chiefs go undefeated.
Starting point is 00:34:56 The entire rate of the season. Yes, and then they get to the AFC championship against the bills. And it just doesn't happen. Always got a shot with 17, though. Always got a shot with 17. Shout out the boy, Josh Allen. Yeah, he's doing his thing right now. Balzy pick, boys.
Starting point is 00:35:08 Let me go take a... Oh, okay. I didn't know if you had them. Balsey picks. So many things make football great, but you know what the best thing is kicking the living shit of your rival. There's absolutely no better feeling as an athlete or fan. This week, we've got Steelers and the Browns.
Starting point is 00:35:22 There's a night football. And Fireball whiskey is here to give you the spark. to ignite the rivalry all season long. Grab your football buddy, buy around, and reignite that rivalry flame. Ballsie picked this week, let me just jump right into mine. Because it is, it's a scary one. You good? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:40 Hey, Shirm. Can you come grab my notebook? Yes, sir. Need the fancy red notebook. You're good. You're good. You're good. This is a scary one.
Starting point is 00:35:48 NFC North, Vikings minus three and a half versus the bears. I'm taking the bears. I'm taking the bears. I'm taking the bears. I'm taking the vikes? I'm taking the Bears. Where is it at? What's that?
Starting point is 00:35:59 It's at the Bears. It's at Soldier Field, which makes you feel a little bit better about it, right? A little bit. It shouldn't. Why? They're four and two at home. The weather is all the way. Caleb Williams, he's not showing the growth you want to see out of like of a number one overall pick.
Starting point is 00:36:13 There's no doubt. Teams like veterans in the locker room are talking about, hey, play Bayesian. You saw some of those headlines last week like, hey, play the backup. Now, even though you're at home at Soldier Field, the weather's getting colder. You got a kid out, an L.A. kid paints his nails, talks about wanting to cuddle up and watch Netflix after postgame pressers. He's now about to really start experiencing Chicago football. And it's not like he's got a lot of momentum going into this game. And the Vikings, they had a couple average games right before last week.
Starting point is 00:36:42 Last week they played well. Dog. Vikings, bro. No, well, yeah, this is the reason why it's a ballsy pick. It's a ballsy, yeah. For sure. But I'm just trying to grade you're like, hey, they're at home. It's going to be a good thing.
Starting point is 00:36:55 Well, they're four and two at home. And that to me is like, okay, we feel good about that. They're 0 and 4 on the road. Like, there's no doubt Caleb Williams is not developing the corporate one to be. We want him to be as the first overall pick coming from California, just like he said, the paint and the nails. And now you're about to hit Midwestern hard blue collar winners. That's going to be fucking tough. Does that scream Caleb Williams?
Starting point is 00:37:13 No, it doesn't scream Caleb Williams. But it screams balls. You got a 46-yard field goal blocked by Santos. Santos is in the post-game press conference and saying, hey, it felt good. I thought I headed on target, ball, blah, blah. and could have been an illegal little push in the back there on that special teams play with the Packers. I'm just saying they've got a shot. It's going to take a lot.
Starting point is 00:37:34 I got team keys right here. First thing you got to do, you got to take your middle of the road defense, and you got to get Sam Donald to see a ghost again. You need him to go viral. You got to create turnovers for sure. You got to create turnovers. The defense also, this is not like a we need Caleb Williams to ball. We need Caleb Williams to take care of the football, establish a run game,
Starting point is 00:37:51 and get them into third and manageables. and then just take care of, like, third and four to five. And the old lines got a block for them. And they got a block for them. Yeah, because they got some dogs coming. The defense has got to win. Come in the third down. Good news is they're top five defensively in third downs.
Starting point is 00:38:06 That's a nice little silver boat. That's a good thing. And they got a hold that Vikings offense to field goals, which they were returning and burning earlier in the season the last couple weeks, not the strongest. They'd had a good showing against the Titans. But it wasn't as sharp as we've seen Sam Donald's. We were talking about him three, four weeks ago,
Starting point is 00:38:23 being in the MVP race, along with a couple other names that we did not expect before the season. This is a scary pick. I don't, I don't doubt that. I don't doubt that we're sitting here, you're watching this show and you're thinking, Taylor, you're a fucking idiot. But boys, if we might have a lot Chicago fans, though, maybe they're right. If we're going to get ballsy on these picks, bears money line. It's an 8-nate league. No, you're right.
Starting point is 00:38:48 It's a league. It's in any given Sunday type of mentality. Caleb Williams, all the things about being from California, I, you know. get it. Do I wish his nails were regular nail colors? Yes, for this moment, this moment. I'm like, offseason, do your thing. Paint them whatever you want. You can even put little letters on there. If you want a nice little scenic little view on your nails, go for it. November, soldier, soldier field, ride off the breeze of Lake Michigan coming off. That draft, that frozen tundra, it's going to be freezing. Put a layer of sweaters on. Get the little
Starting point is 00:39:19 hot packs in your little pouch. Put some in your feet as well. Get that, jet fuel that shoots off the side of the benches and just warms up your legs, burns your leg hairs off during the season. Definitely. And go ball out for a day. Prove Daddy right. I'm Daddy. I just, you know, I think Minnesota has one of the best defensive lines right now in the league.
Starting point is 00:39:39 And I like Donald. I like Donald, too. I like Donald too. I mean, TJ came back and had him. He had them two, three catches last week against the tightest. Never know league boys. It's a never know league. Phillips coach.
Starting point is 00:39:52 And I'm gonna say about that fingernail shit, I just think that's the new age stuff. So I don't even think that matters anymore. I'm thinking more, I'm thinking more of a West Coast LA kid coming in and playing in. I feel you. In Chicago, I understand that. Because you paint you whatever you want. Not my thing, but go ahead. Do what you want.
Starting point is 00:40:10 Yeah, do what you want. Your daughter's gonna be paying your nails pretty soon. No question. Yeah. No question. And you're gonna see me floating a picture being like, I don't think you're gonna do that. Caleb Williams. You may do that.
Starting point is 00:40:20 Willie Williams. You may do that. that. I like the Rams at the Eagles. Eagles are favored by three. So nerve-wrecking pick. It is balzy. The Eagles, they have like the best defense in the league. They're number one in total yards. They're number two in past defense. They're number seven and rushing. However, if you look at their last six opponents, they played the commanders last week. Commanders had a hell of a first half. Didn't get points going into halftime like they needed to. And Eagles just put it on them in the second half, leaned on them. They're more of a physical football team. Eagles obviously are stacked
Starting point is 00:40:52 with talent. But if you look at the Eagles last six outside of the commanders, because again, as much you love Jane Daniels, like Matt Staffords is different, he's a more experienced veteran, he's got better receivers on the outside. They got Kyron Williams. I know that the commanders have a good run game. But the other teams,
Starting point is 00:41:09 the Cowboys, the Jags, the Bengals, the Giants, the Browns, Eagles are putting into teams that aren't in the top half of the league. I like the Rams at home. They're 7 and 3 against the spread as home dogs. And again, if you look get another scary thing is them stopping the Philadelphia Eagles run game. The Eagles are the number
Starting point is 00:41:28 one rushing offense in the league. But if you look at the last three games, the Rams are averaging three and a half yards per attempt. That's top five in the NFL defensively. They're getting after the quarterback. Their second sacks per game in their last three, they're averaging four point three sacks in the last three games. They're getting after the quarterback. I think they make Jaylon a little bit uncomfortable. I think McBae is going to call the hell of a game when you got Cup, You got Robinson, you got Nakua, you got Kyron Williams, you got a savvy vet and a Super Bowl winner in Matt Stafford. I like the Rams at home. That's my ballsy pickers.
Starting point is 00:42:01 I painted a great picture. Philadelphia Eagles are cooking right now. They are. They are. They are. Anytime you can establish the run, it's such an advantage. And you play a game we talked about, I think the commanders were seven and three. Eagles are like seven and two and be able to win the fashion that they did.
Starting point is 00:42:20 They did it put it to them. They're cooking special right now. And they're winning physical in, you know, October, November. Yeah. Which is kind of not what you saw last year. I mean, they obviously started going to start to get turned down. It started turned down right this year. I like the Eagles.
Starting point is 00:42:35 I like the Eagles. You going to get in on it at all? Oh, man. No, not. No, I'm not going to say. What's your boss you picked? Oh, well, well, well, well, my eyes is. Why is this going to be Ravens at the Chargers.
Starting point is 00:42:53 I like the Chargers. Of course, y'all know I like the Chargers. I'm a Jim Harbaughal fan, but this is going to be the Harbaugh Bowl again, right? You got the Ravens versus Chargers, Brothers versus Brothers. Monday Night Football. Monday Night Football. Prime time. Again, I love everything about the Ravens.
Starting point is 00:43:10 I know it's going to be tough. Both of them are second in the division in both their divisions. That makes it. tough on this one. That's why it's going to be a bossy pick. But again, I'm going to have to lean on the chargers. Being able to stop those Ravens. You're going to have to have Cleo Mac going to have a great game. You're going to have, Darwin James is going to have a great game. And then Denzel permanent, he going to have to step up and tackle a Derek Henry. We know the size difference is ridiculous. But this man, he comes in. He likes to fill gaps. I think this is going to be a good
Starting point is 00:43:37 game for him to show everybody he's a smaller linebacker, but who can stop runs. And I think that's going to be big for this game. And then offense, can they stop the Chargers? That run offense, that you got G-Row running that offense coming up with creative plays. You got Justin Herbert looking great out there dropping Don running for first down. Indeed. Boy is looking good. Doing what he's doing.
Starting point is 00:44:01 He's getting Quinn, Clint Johnston. TCU Hornfrogs. Going in. You know, that man, you know, they, people doubted him. They didn't think he was going to be successful this year. He's stepping up. He's making plays when we need him to make plays, scoring touchdowns, big touchdowns. Then you got Ladd McCaukey.
Starting point is 00:44:19 McCongy. McCongy. McConkey. McConkey. Yeah, McConkey. He coming in, a rookie coming in, doing his thing, making plays when we need them to make plays. And then you got J.K. Dobbins, and you got Gus Edwards, the doubleheader. I'm excited to see what they do.
Starting point is 00:44:35 I think it's going to be a great game, but I think the Charters come away with that. So with that said, I'm taking them plus three to win this game. Hey, good for you. I think it's a good pick. I think it's a good pick too. It's at home, right? Chargers at home. Chargers at home.
Starting point is 00:44:48 Chargers are four and one at home. Four and one at home. The thing I love about the Chargers is the fun that they're having. They having so much fun. There was a reporter that said, hey, it looks like this team's actually having fun for the first ever. The defense is elite. Justin Herbert is making plays. Unbelievable.
Starting point is 00:45:05 The last game they just played against the Bengals. Yeah, beat the Bengals. Like he had to put the ball down the field in a short amount of time. And ended with a J.K. Dobbins touchdown. Nasty. Was it a 34-yard run? Yeah, that's. And J.K. Dobbins, where did he play last?
Starting point is 00:45:16 He played at the Ravens. Revenge game. And Gus Edwards. Both of them did. So they got both the running backs that was there at the Ravens. So I'm just saying, this is a game. That's why it's on Monday night. Of course, it's the brothers going against each other,
Starting point is 00:45:29 but this is going to be a great game, and I'm excited about it. I love to. I love seeing the relationship between Harbaugh and Herbert. Yeah. Herbert makes a play comes the sideline. You just see it on Harbaugh's face. Like last week, they had a close up where he's like, great kill, great kill.
Starting point is 00:45:41 Oh, yeah. Just, I love that. I love that. The beast. The only reason I don't. Dude, when he's on the sideline, he's like, hey, do me a favor. Pretend like you're about to throw a pass. Hey.
Starting point is 00:45:49 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, just pretend like you're drawing up a pass right here. Yeah. Kriper goes, like that? Yeah. He's just, bro, like, they're just having a good time. And Harbaugh is like Campbell. There's all ball all the time.
Starting point is 00:46:01 Very different personalities. Yeah, very different. But they're all ball. Yeah. 24-7. The only reason I don't want to pick the Chargers is because I feel like if the Ravens lose this game, they're going to going to be slipping away from these, not like playoff hopes, like they're going to get into
Starting point is 00:46:16 the playoffs, but the dominance that they had in the first half of the season, they dropped, you know, their last game. It's like, I just don't want to see that happen to the Ravens. They know they have to travel. You're not taking this game because you want the Ravens to win. I want the Ravens to win because I still want that momentum of the Ravens going into the playoffs. Yeah, yeah, I feel you. The Ravens Steelers in that division. They've got to get that first win in the playoffs. They've got to like make a run in the playoffs. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:43 Dude, they just, Lamar is so special, tracking down his third MVP, and he just cannot, for whatever reason, the playoffs get the stuff done. Hopefully the addition to Derek Henry is. No, no, I'm thinking about it. I think you got to go charges here too. You got to. Because the, the Steelers have a way of making Lamar Jackson look like a normal. Normal.
Starting point is 00:47:01 Historically, they've always done really well. And you got guys like Bosa, Bud DePree coming out. Yeah, yeah, Bosa, Bud DePree. You got Bosa, you got. They might have that same ability. That defense is good. You got the Chargers. You can't be giving up a lead that you have like that that they had on the Bengals.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Oh, yeah, you can't. You know, you definitely can't do that. And you start earlier in the year, the Ravens' Offensive Line were struggling. That first Thursdays in that game against the Chiefs, it was like a revolving door on the right side of that offense line. They seemed to figure that a little bit, but no one's coming to save you with names like that. No, it's too many of them. You can't double, you double one, that other one coming on the backside. You double this one.
Starting point is 00:47:35 He's coming up the middle. He's coming everywhere. Everywhere. Yeah, hell yeah. Yeah. 11 dudes coming at once, man. That's what makes football so great. Especially with a...
Starting point is 00:47:46 Nah, I ain't going to say that. Rapid fire? Rapid fire. Coom! Cool! Welcome back, Coop. All right, ready? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:57 All right, first one, Cowboys versus commanders. Commanders are minus 10 and a half, over under 45.5. Under. Under. Under 45 and a half, Cooper Rush sucks. Next, bucks are minus five and a half versus the Giants, over under 42. Bucks. Bucks.
Starting point is 00:48:12 Damn, bucks. Minus 5.5. Patriots versus the dolphins. Dolphins are minus 7, over under 46. Patriots. Dolphins. Dolphins. Titans versus Texans.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Texans are minus 8 and a half, over under 42. Pass. Under. Texans minus 8.5. Texans minus 8.5. Next, Broncos minus 5.5. 5 versus the Raiders, over under 41. Broncos.
Starting point is 00:48:42 Broncos. Five and a half. Bo Nix, baby. Professional. He's showing up. He's showing up. Raders. Last is 49ers versus Packers.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Packers minus two and a half. Over under 47. And a half. Oh, this one's tough. That's a tough one. Give me the Niners. Give me over 47. That's it.
Starting point is 00:49:04 Oh, Delaney's got a hit. Over 47. And a half. He just got the. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thank you, Coop. Coup. I was trying to really get that down.
Starting point is 00:49:20 Boys, this is the most important. After this, this is the most important part of the show. This is where I get nervous. Yes, the most important part of the show. I love watching sports, but you know what makes it even better? Having some skin the game, based to our partners at Draft King Sportsbook. Wonder what the Draft King Sportsbook app offers?

Starting point is 00:49:57 J.K. Dobbins. Bet the Boys Barlete. And we're getting spicy. We're taking McCaffrey off the board. We're taking Delaney. Damn. Derek Henry off the board, which is Delaney Walker. And David Montgomery.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Oh, are we taking David Montgomery? Why are we taking all three of those dudes? Oh, I mean, we've said we're going to change. We said Montgomery alive. We said Montgomery a lot. That's fair. He hasn't scored. Every time we say him, he don't score.
Starting point is 00:50:23 He hasn't scored over a month. Who has it? Justin Jefferson. Receiver. Yeah. Yeah, I'm taking a receiver, too. That hurts my favorite. Listen to his.
Starting point is 00:50:31 It hurts my balls he picked. That hurts my balls he pick. It does. When you were saying it, I was like, I got J.J. And that's when he started talking about the charges. I'm like, yes, dude, I got J.K. Dobbins. No, J.K. Dobbins is a, for sure. Revenge game.
Starting point is 00:50:43 Yeah, for sure. Listen to his. Westbrook, Akeena. Akeena, how you said it? Yeah. Westy. Westy, it's Westy. Westy.
Starting point is 00:50:53 Westy. Hey, that is a for sure hands. That is a guy. If I was a GM, that's a guy I'll have on my team. That's a guy you want players to look up to and see the work ethic. Go out there, bust his ass, never complains, play special teams, get on offense when he get out there and guess what? He makes plays. And he's a new father, had his first kid.
Starting point is 00:51:14 Congratulations. A couple of years. A year receiving touchdown last week. Yeah, he's just, I think he's right now in the NFL, he is the, he has the most 98 yard touchdown in the NFL right now. Hang on, hang on. This season? You're doing it this season?
Starting point is 00:51:28 Time out, time out. Did you just hear what he said? Yeah, I'm trying to host 98 yard touchdowns in the NFL. No, no, I'm saying. That stat is facts. No, he has the only 98, 98, uh, 98 yard touchdown in the NFL, the longest touchdown so far in the NFL goes to Nick. This season? This season or is the record?
Starting point is 00:51:45 This season. Wow. I'm just saying that's good, bro. Yeah, no, that's awesome. You're saying it like, this is why you have to bet anything. No, I'm just saying he scores every week. That's guaranteed. How many is he got?
Starting point is 00:51:56 What, five right now? So he doesn't score every week? Because he wasn't playing when DeAndre Hopkins was here. We talked about it. I said that guy should be on the field. But since DeAndre Hopkins was here, he would not suit up. Now that DeAndre is not here, he's been scoring every game since he's been gone. Facts.
Starting point is 00:52:13 Five or nine? Facts. Let's write it. What a part of L. I mean, fucking. Westie. What are the odds on that? Big.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Trying to find it. Who knows if a receiver's up yet? If the receivers are up in the Draft King's sportsbook yet? I got nervous about Justin Jefferson. I know, but... All we got... In the app is Calvin and Nick right now. We've got nothing to lose, bro.
Starting point is 00:52:40 But this part of it will be promoted throughout the weekend. Like, it's going to come alive. Like, this is... So far without... Justin Jefferson is plus 630. Gee. Hey, you talk about a parlay, bro. That's a parlay, yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:54 We might be getting what? You think that'll hit plus 1,000, or you think like plus 900? I'm like plus 800. Oh, plus 800. You won't bring it down anymore? I don't know, bro. You're just going to add.
Starting point is 00:53:04 Justin Jefferson, he had the score number of a month. You think he's sitting at like minus odds of score a touchdown? That'll drive up. I mean, you might be hitting 1,000. Could be getting a thousand. I'm going to take a piss real quick. I love it. I'm all about it.
Starting point is 00:53:21 I'm scared of it, but like I said, there's nothing to lose. There's nothing to fucking lose. Let's ride. Let's take a quick break. When we come back, we're going to hit college football segment. Let's have a fucking day, boys. Let's have a day. Welcome back.
Starting point is 00:53:33 College football portion. We'll be talking about the trophy game in the week. Our tier talk where we pick three different teams, our ballsie pick, our fan call in. Fellas, the college football playoff is unfolding. You hear the arguing right now. Pro-SEC people pissed off. that they're only going to get four teams in. What would you do with you bet?
Starting point is 00:53:52 No, you're saying pro-SEC people. I'm thinking of myself of our conversation when we had on the bus this week. You're now pro-SEC guy. I'm not a pro-SEC guy. What I was going to say is I do empathize, I do hear what they're saying. Okay, if that's what you're saying now,
Starting point is 00:54:06 it's not what you said on the bus. I'm trying to set up a conversation. I'm trying to set up a conversation. I know, but I got viewers on that might not be watching busing with the boys. Listen, if you haven't, go watch it. Because you didn't go watch from two years ago when we were all like, hey, the Big Ten, might be the best conference.
Starting point is 00:54:18 We've got to argue for the Big Ten. Then the Big Ten wins the national championship. And now this year, Will's like, hey, let's talk about reality. The SEC is the best conference. The worst team in the SEC is, what, five and five? Who did they have a play last week? Mercer. Well, yeah, they're going to have their little.
Starting point is 00:54:39 I'm just saying. I'm just saying. Oh, shit. You're talking with a national championship, Michigan Wolverines? Astrid, Joe. You guys talk about Astrid. That's, too. That's what losing.
Starting point is 00:54:50 I mean, it is an a mystery, but that's besides the point you guys are national champions. We're national champions. Yeah, national champions. But I'm saying if you're going to, you're all of a sudden jumping on the SEC show. I'm not, I'm not jumping on it, bro. I'm just trying to like. Louis Garrett walked up to me after the bus who goes, well, was an SEC guy now? He did.
Starting point is 00:55:08 He did. He did. Yeah. Like the SEC is good, but because of the playoff picture, how we could have four big 10 teams and possibly five or even four SEC teams in, we get to find out. That's not what I'm trying to keep out of the game. trying to make it as even as possible between the Big Ten and the SEC. Not to mention you're anti-military. Yeah, I don't want these other teams thinking.
Starting point is 00:55:28 I don't want a situation. We've got three teams in there. I don't hate the troops. You want them to lose the Notre Dame? Yeah, because I'm picking the Notre Dame. I'm picking the Notre Dame game. I wanted to go to Notre Dame when I was growing up. I want the religion to take down the military this weekend because I don't want a team like
Starting point is 00:55:44 Army. I love the romanticized. I enjoy the fantasy that everybody has of a military team like Army getting in the college bowl playoff. everybody just going arm and arm, but they would get disintegrated in the first. They're going to get disintegrated this weekend. We haven't even got to talking the games,
Starting point is 00:55:58 but I'm going to let you all know that they're about to get their ass beat this weekend by Notre Dame. I think there's something beautiful about Army making the first ever 12-team playoff. Regardless of what happens. That's what happens to them. Romanticizing and the fantasy of like, man, it would be great. And it would be cool.
Starting point is 00:56:13 That's the beautiful part about folk culture. We know those three teams, like 10, 11, 12, we're probably going to get smacked around. Boise State, when they go up against a, a strong Big Ten team or the powerhouse that is the SEC that Will Compton wants to get back behind, but they're probably going to fucking get destroyed. But it's fun seeing Boise State and their blue field trutch into the college full of playoffs. That's fun. It's fun seeing a team that doesn't belong there going and just get their ass. You can't say that
Starting point is 00:56:39 any more, though. You don't want to fly off ASU. It will change all of that. Listen, we're arguing, we're arguing that the clouds right now because it's not going to happen. We're arguing at the clouds right now. It's like, well, you still don't get in. But there's a lot. get beat. What about, what about Arizona State? Do you don't want to see them in? They won't, they won't get in. I got Colorado winning the Big 12. Okay. You think Colorado is good enough to be in the playoff and be like, oh yeah. No, because you're romanticizing your head about the storyline of D.N. Saners, and you're also romanticizing about the idea of how your thumbs are going to go off on Twitter saying, oh, Colorado is the cultural playoff, but remember that Nebraska
Starting point is 00:57:14 ass beating. Like, it's, you see it, you see it. But to romanticize about Colorado. Keep Nebraska out of your out, bro. To romanticize about Colorado is the same as romanticizing about Army. I just happen to have my hand in my heart. And looking at 50 stars and 13 bars and think to myself, God damn, this country's great. Listen. I can't wait to see those boys play the college football playoff.
Starting point is 00:57:33 You just want Nebraska to have something. You can have your hand on the heart. I'm going God, country, busting with the boys. So you can sit there. You can sit there your hand on the art, but I got the brand. You're going, God, busting with the boys. Something else. Another thing.
Starting point is 00:57:49 What are you talking about? Military. Did you not, you were part of the same victory speech shoutout as I was. Talking about I'm not, I'm not pro America. Come on now.
Starting point is 00:57:59 We're talking about both sides of our mouth. I'm just saying, I want Notre Dame. Everybody shit on Notre Dame. They dropped on again. We'll get into it. We'll get into it. We'll get into it.
Starting point is 00:58:06 And I are you. They did. They shit down their legs. Second game of the season. After beating Texas A&M, who is what, one or two in the SEC? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:16 Who? I'm just saying the fun, like we know who the top four or five teams are. And we're excited to watch them duke it out. But let's get, let's get fired up about that back half of the cultural football playoff. And it would be fun to have Boise State in there. It'd be fun to have Army in there. I didn't say it would not be fun to have Boise and insane.
Starting point is 00:58:34 What I'm- To see an Arizona school in the college football playoffs. No, no, no, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, I said beating Jake Paul or like, like, what if it does happen. Right. Yeah, no, you bet. Phantizing what things.
Starting point is 00:58:47 You bet on a 58-year-old man. beating a 20-year-old in a fight. All right. Now we're bringing up shit that has nothing to do with putting the ball on the grass. Is Arizona? Willco does not like Washington State? No. So Wilcoft, they could have the Nebraska corner Oscars win something.
Starting point is 00:59:02 No, I think Colorado's playing good football. They've, like, picked themselves up after getting their ass absolutely tapped by Nebraska. I'm not, you're right. I would love to do that and see that, but I just think Colorado's playing good. I think Arizona State's playing good, too. Dude, let me tell you something. You don't think I want Dilly to go? You don't think I want Dillie to go?
Starting point is 00:59:17 I don't think I want Dillie to go. I don't think you do because you just said. they're not going to make it because that Colorado wins. Because my rational brain is just saying like Colorado, it looks like- They did not be Kansas State who's ranked. They didn't be Kansas State. And they got BYU who just dropped one last week. I love it.
Starting point is 00:59:30 And they're going to win that. And then they're going to walk down to Tucson, Arizona and beat the shit of the wildcats. Sorry, Mark, it's going to happen. And then they're going to play Colorado. And Kenny DeLayette. And that's going to be a great game. The genius. Auburn.
Starting point is 00:59:41 Oregon, O.C. That's a can't lose. He scores fucking points. That's a can't lose Big 12 championship. Because either Colorado. Rada wins or Arizona. I like that. It's not a spin. The only thing I'm wanting to not happen is Army. Army takes out. You've got an Army and a Boise State in the Coswell playoff. Like, I'm down with Boise being in it. Or if Boise dropped one or Army wins out, that'd be awesome. Only one of them should go in there.
Starting point is 01:00:06 Of all the teams, it'd be like, yo, that's fucking crazy. This team's going to possibly make the cultural world playoff is the game in our trophy game of the week. Which we'll talk about right after we talk about this ad. Watching your team win is nice, but making that win-win.

Starting point is 01:01:00 Trophy Game of the Week, Indiana. Yes. In Columbus, Ohio. Ohio State is favored by 13.5 points. Total in that game is 51.5. I think the safe bet here is the over. Give me Indiana plus 13 and a half. And that's an emotional pick.
Starting point is 01:01:15 That's an emotional pick. It's like we got to this point. Indiana is 10 and 0. And all these conversations around... Who have they played? What we just argued about? Hang on, Dylan. Michigan.
Starting point is 01:01:24 Hey, hey, shut up. Smack them. 20 to 15. 20 to 15. I know. Can I go? Oh, go ahead. I thought you was going to say Nebraska.
Starting point is 01:01:33 No, no, no, no. We know where Nebraska is. They're about to get a good. Yeah, they smack them. Dylan Rail will just guarantee to win this again. 56 to 7. I'm with Indiana because, again, everybody's talking like Indiana. It's part of this squad that if they lose,
Starting point is 01:01:45 they could still blah, blah, blah. They're talking about, well, if they lose this bad, if they lose that bad, fuck it. Dude, we're going Indiana. We're going plus 13 and a half. It's going to be a close game. Whether they lose close, they're going to get into the college football playoff. And to me, they're a team that is, that's shown that they can be in the college world
Starting point is 01:02:00 playoff. They're averaging like, what, 40 a game? Yeah, something crazy. Yeah. But Ohio State 6 and 0 at home, not going to happen. Okay. Nebraska literally took them down to the last drive. The last drive.
Starting point is 01:02:14 And Indiana beat their ass. Yes, they did whoop on Nebraska. I will give you that. That's big of you because they smoke the shit out in Nebraska. Okay, that sounds nice when you say it. It hurts a little more when you say it. It says he keeps saying that he just keeps saying. Yeah, I want them to know that they got beat.
Starting point is 01:02:31 But Ohio State, come on, look who Ohio State played. Look who they lost to. Oregon, one of the best teams right now in college football. One of the number one team. I'm just saying, indeed. We know that. I'm just speculating, okay. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:02:46 You don't have to speculate. It's a fact. They don't mean they're going to win a national just because the polls got them number one. Yeah, but as of right now. As of right now. As of right now. You don't have to speculate. As of right now, they are the best team in college football.
Starting point is 01:02:59 Right now. As of right now. As of right now. I'm just speculating them that right now. You don't have to speculate. Yeah, let me do my thing. All right, go ahead. So, yeah, Ohio State going to take this one, man.
Starting point is 01:03:12 I just, I see that minus 13 is nothing for them against Indiana. All right. All right, cool. Hey, this game is a transfer portal game. Curtis Rourke, how you say it? Work. Rourke? Work.
Starting point is 01:03:29 Leads college football and quarterback rating. I still don't know how the quarterback rating is processed, but that's a pretty good deal to me, all right? Kid averages 10 plus yards a throw and attempt. They push the ball down the field. He does an incredible job. This kid transfers from Ohio, Indiana. Kurt Signetti has brought all these guys that have a
Starting point is 01:03:47 chip on their shoulder that aren't the five-star guys. He's talking about three, two, three, four-star guys and develops them, makes them better. Takes guys who produce versus chasing the stars. Versus chasing the stars. Now, Ohio State's got a lot of transfers as well. They are, they paid the most in NIL deals. They have the best team in college football on paper. On paper, yeah. But you see what happened in Oregon. You see, I watch Indiana. I watch them against Michigan, obviously. I watch them against Nebraska. They have an unbelievable ability to push the ball down the field and mixing the run and have X plays in the run as well.
Starting point is 01:04:20 I think this game is an over game and I'm going to get emotional here. I get Indiana money line. Oh, fuck. Columbus, Ohio is not the terrifying place it used to be. Look at Nebraska cornhusters are sticking them down. There are a couple of mistakes away. Everybody says taking them down. Take them down to the last drive.
Starting point is 01:04:38 Excuse me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Should have taken them down. Nebraska's 5 and 5. No disrespect. I mean, you can say that by all this thing. Take a organ. Indiana is 10-0. To the bottom line.
Starting point is 01:04:48 And they fight hard. They got Mikhail Kamara. That's such a difficult thing. He's leading the Big Ten in a quarter, sorry, leading the college football in quarterback pressures. Aidan Fisher, he's tied in the Big Ten for the most tackles. This is just an offensive team. On the defensive side of the ball, they edge wall swarm. They get after the quarterback.
Starting point is 01:05:07 They play good team defense. I see a world, and I would not believe if Nebraska didn't show that it was possible, for Indiana walk in with this. double-digit underdogs walk in and take one away from Columbus, from Columbus. And then they lose again
Starting point is 01:05:22 against Michigan next week. And they've had an extra week to prepare. They had a buy week. They had a buy week. Yeah. This is a game though Ohio got it.
Starting point is 01:05:29 Ohio State has to win. And they know that. Yeah, they're about to lose two in a row. Yeah. Yeah. I think Ryan Day going to get those boys ready.
Starting point is 01:05:35 You think so? Yeah. Indiana plus 13 and a half. You're going Indiana Money Line. I'm going Indiana Money Line. But you're also doing the over. You also doing the over. I'm taking Ohio State.
Starting point is 01:05:45 Mine is 13. The only. The only one. The only way Indiana wins this game is if it's an over game. They have to put points on the board. They have to. They have to put points on the board. I'm excited.
Starting point is 01:05:53 It's going to be a fucking, it's going to be an awesome game. I can't wait for it. I wouldn't be surprised if Ohio State covers and blows them out. I wouldn't be surprised at Ohio State wins by a little. I wouldn't be surprised if Indiana wins by a little. I wouldn't be surprised if Indiana blows them up. Yeah, that's, at the end of the end of the, just go all quarters, fucking. I wouldn't be surprised if anything happens in this game.
Starting point is 01:06:11 I'm surprised if they cancel the game. Yeah, yeah. They say, we're not going to do this one. Not surprising. Not surprised. Not surprised. Football on the right, boy, Saturday. Shit happens, you know.
Starting point is 01:06:22 Tier talk, who wants to start it off? I'll go first, man. Oh, here we go. Oh, yeah. All right, Delaney. So my tier talk this week, we got Tier 1. It's going to be Penn State at Minnesota. Penn State is 4-0 away.
Starting point is 01:06:37 Minnesota's 4-2 at home. Got to go with Penn State. James Franklin is the head coach, correct? Right? Yeah, James Franklin with that spread offense. I don't think Minnesota is going to be able to control those dudes, especially with that 425 defense with Abdul Carter Jr. That boy is having a hell of a fucking year right now rushing, getting to that quarterback, making
Starting point is 01:07:02 them hurry, getting sacks. So I know that defense is going to be stoked with having that boy out there being able to do what he do best. Then you got Nicholas Singleton running the shit out of the ball right now. doing a great job running the ball. You got Harrison Wallace catching the rock, making big plays down the field. Penn State, this is a game that they gonna have to get,
Starting point is 01:07:24 especially going against Minnesota. That's a minus 11 and a half. That's the only thing that's scary that minus 11 and a half is pretty high, but I think Penn State walks away with that one. That's my tier one. Gophers, cool mascot. They do got a good mascot.
Starting point is 01:07:39 I like their mascot. My tier two, it's gonna be Pittsburgh at Louisville. Okay, this is just... My first one, my first one, my first one was, they was, Ohio Miss. They was ranked 11, and this morning they was ranked 9. So I had to switch that on the fly. So I'm going Pittsburgh versus Louisville. And I'm taking Louisville.
Starting point is 01:08:04 I'm taking Louisville minus eight. You got Donald Chaney running the shit out of the ball again. Oh. Huh? No, I was like, oh, shit, yeah. I mean, he's been going crazy. Then you got Jacori Brooks right now. Receiver, 945 yards receiving eight touchdowns. That man right now in Louisville is going insane. I love seeing that. I love saying the receivers go crazy.
Starting point is 01:08:28 Dan, he compared that with Chris Bell. Chris Bell has been doing the same thing. Not as many yards receiving, but he's out there making place with those boys. I see them toppling Pittsburgh minus eight. And then for my tier three, it's going to be seven. Syracuse at Yukon. Y'all know I got to go Syracuse. They four and one at home. Kyle McCord. Kyle McCord. Kyle McCord.
Starting point is 01:08:56 That's his name. And LeGuant Allen or something shit like that. How y'all say his name? It's something like that. It's something like that. So those dudes right now has been bawling out. Huh? They've been bawling out.
Starting point is 01:09:09 Syracuse right now, I think they're going to topple UCon. That minus 10 and a half is a great. number, but those boys going to get it done. That defense is going to start with Marlow Wax. Marlow Wax has been going nuts right now with linebacker. Boy is unstoppable. I'm sorry to see what he do when that draft comes up if he declares. But they take this one against UCon. So I'm taking Syracuse minus 10 and a half. Good to your talk. Good to your talk. I saw. I see you looking at a couple things. Something like. No, no, I'm just looking at you know, no, I don't do the nine inch day. ain't no more.
Starting point is 01:09:42 You know, this is a... He said Louisville, Pittsburgh. Oh. I wanted the Ole Miss Florida game. All right. First game on my tier talk. Tier one is going to be Texas, minus 21 versus Kentucky.
Starting point is 01:09:57 Texas is a damn good ball club. Sarkeesian. They're doing the thing at the SEC. I think they're going to win the SEC championship. I think they're a team of destiny right now. They're going to end up being that one, two, probably a two seed. And they're going to win this game by more than 21 points.
Starting point is 01:10:10 They're four and two against a spread at home. My tier two, SMU at Virginia, first meeting between these two ball clubs and the history of their college football programs. SMU's plan not only against themselves, but against the entire ACC Sherman brought up a nice little stat or a nice little thought that SMU was begging to get the ACCC, ACC, that's fine, but you're not going to get any money from us. So if SMU ends up making into the college football playoff, they have to have two very decisive wins, these next two, and beat Miami, but even if they do really well here, and then lose to Miami, there's still a world where they get into the college football playoff,
Starting point is 01:10:43 they won't give any, the ACC won't give them any of that extra bonus money. So they're fighting a bunch of different battles right now. They're whipping ass for free. I like it. I like the fact that they're whooping ass for free.
Starting point is 01:10:52 My tier three, I feel like they talked about the third most between Nebraska and Michigan is Vanderbilt. They're plus seven and a half versus LSU. It is a night game, but for those of you don't know,
Starting point is 01:11:04 Vanderbilt's never played a home game in their entire life. Every single week, every SEC game. It is Georgia fans in there. Kentucky fans, it's volunteer fans. They are so used to being in silent count, noise, all that stuff. It's going to be rocking, obviously, in Tiger Land and Death Valley. But I think Brian Kelly, the way he matches with LSU is like oil and water.
Starting point is 01:11:29 It's just not a great mix. He's losing the locker room a little bit. Let me get Vandy plus seven and a half. Ooh. Okay. Ooh. Okay. Ooh.
Starting point is 01:11:37 I like that. I like that. I see you. That, Vandy. Man, he's slippery, man. They were going to be my ballsy pick. Yeah, that could have been a good ballsy. My tier one, Notre Dame, favored minus 14 and a half against Army.
Starting point is 01:11:52 This is religion versus the military. Notre Dame, they're too big for these boys. Their old line averages 306 in the trenches. Notre Dame, their wins. Everybody talks about their schedule. Yeah, they shit down their leg and they dropped a little one against, or a big one. They dropped a big one against Northern Illinois. But let's not forget, they beat Texas A&M, who is at the top,
Starting point is 01:12:10 sitting toward the top of the SEC. They beat Louisville, who beat Clemson. They beat Georgia Tech. They beat Georgia Tech's ass. Georgia Tech also beat Miami. They mopped Navy. They mopped Virginia. They mopped Florida State. Obviously, they suck. They mopped Stanford. Army beat who?
Starting point is 01:12:26 Last week. They had a bye. Who did they beat two weeks ago? North Texas, 14 to 3. This, and I watched the first quarter of that North Texas Army game. And North Texas drove the ball down the very first series, ultimately kicking a field goal. But this is the levels here, Notre Dame is going to beat their ass. They're going to cover minus 14 and a half.
Starting point is 01:12:48 They need an army going into this game coming off of a buy. They need all the rest that they can get because when they go and they play Notre Dame, Notre Dame is going to read them the Ten Commandments before they baptize them. And I'm telling you right now, this is a minus 14 and a half game. That is my tier one. My tier two. Colorado at Kansas. Right now, Kansas is, or Colorado is favored by two and a half.
Starting point is 01:13:11 This is Shadur Sanders versus Jalen Daniels. Jalen Daniels have been playing his balls off. If you look at Kansas's losses, they lost to Kansas State by two, they lost Arizona State by four, West Virginia by four, Illinois by six. They have wins over BYU, Iowa State, and Houston as of late. This is going to be an exciting game to watch. I'm just going with, I'm rocking with Colorado. I see Colorado, you know, I see Shadur out playing Jalen.
Starting point is 01:13:35 That's what it's going to come down to. And I'm just going to put my, I'm going to put my stock into Colorado. I see them coming alive. I feel like they have a lot to play for it, like having their dreams of going to the Big 12th championship, possibly playing like an Arizona State or BYU, winning that game and getting into the college football playoff.
Starting point is 01:13:51 After getting their asses mopped by Nebraska, everybody thought they were done, myself included. We broke this team. We broke this ball club. I thought you guys broke them. We broke their son's arm. It's over for them. But they've like came alive, bro,
Starting point is 01:14:02 and it's fun. It's fun to watch and play. This game, Colorado versus Kansas, is going to be awesome. My tier three, Nebraska. My soon half against Wisconsin. This is a must one. This is all hands on deck.
Starting point is 01:14:14 We're going bowling after this weekend. Dylan Riola, he's guaranteed to win. Danny H. He's been out there calling the wide receiver room out, talking like, hey, you guys aren't worth the shit on the perimeter. We've talked about that on Buston with the boys before. We talked about it earlier this season. Just block on the perimeter.
Starting point is 01:14:29 I like Nebraska. I love Nebraska this weekend. Wisconsin, they haunt my fucking dreams. I have PTSD from Wisconsin because of them. Melvin Gordon and all those boys who ran all over me in the Big Ten Championship. But I love Nebraska here. This is all hands on deck. Someone goes in, someone's coming out bowling, and it's going to be Nebraska.
Starting point is 01:14:48 It's going to be the Huskers. That's my tier three. So that's my tier talk. All of Nebraska's goals before the start of the season are still right in front of them. Bowl game beat Iowa. What? That's what she has got. Those were our goals going into the season?
Starting point is 01:15:04 We said the bare minimum threshold. That was Taylor-Lewan's goals going into the season. Which was a realistic goal. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What were the goals in your mind? You win a big 10 championship? No, win more than seven and a half games. Go at least eight wins.
Starting point is 01:15:17 Of course I want us to go to the fucking Big Ten championship. But I'm saying, like, realistically, like, yeah, you build it on this year, you're getting an eight-win season. That's obviously out the door right now. But we can finish seven and five. Can finish seven to five. We can be going bowling. The bowling committee out there is going to be rubbing them hands together,
Starting point is 01:15:34 knowing that they could have a Nebraska fan base at their bowl game, make shit loads of money. A lot of fucking money. It's going to happen this year. Yes, a lot of money. I hope so. Lot of money. I'll be praying for you. I appreciate that.
Starting point is 01:15:46 Pray while you pray for Notre Dame beating Army's ass too. Come on now. Not against our military. Yeah. I hope so for Shane. Yeah, and the boy Shane Gillis. We got, we got some skin in this game. True.
Starting point is 01:15:59 But your Army? Yes. Okay. Yes. All right? No, no, no. Yeah. make a bet. It's a little friendly bet. I did it with Delaney. I'll give you the 14 and a half points.
Starting point is 01:16:10 I don't bet on our country, dude. You don't want to bet on the U.S.? You don't bet on the country? What do you mean? I love the country to do they want. I support them from a distance. That's what I look at. I put my head over my heart. I say, go army. I forgot he's half Canadian, son. That's fine. I don't bet on the country. That joke still hits every time, doesn't it? Listen. It does. That joke definitely always hit. All right, ballsie pick. We're at here. We're at Fireball Whiskey.
Starting point is 01:16:39 Go ahead, Delaney, take you another swing. Yer. Our Balzy pick of the week, so many things make college football great, but you know what the best thing is kicking, the living shit out of your rival. There's absolutely no better feeling as an athlete or a fan this week. Again, we've been talking about it. Army at Notre Dame,
Starting point is 01:16:57 Fireball whiskey is here to give you the spark to ignite that rivalry all season long. Grab your football, buddy. Grab the boys. Buy around and reignite that rivalry flame. I'll kick it off. That cinnamon hits. I'll kick it off.
Starting point is 01:17:10 My ballsy pick is Pitt at Louisville. Their last nine meetings, Pitt has won seven of those. What was that? Huh? Hey, just go ahead. Okay, my phone. I was just cut. Pitt, they started 7 and 0.
Starting point is 01:17:24 They've dropped three in a row since then. And if you look at when they played Virginia and Clemson, their last two, they have lost by a combined nine points. Last week against Clemson there without their starting QB. He will be back in the mix this week at Louisville. This is a big game for them. They're averaging three and a half sacks per game, which ranks third nationally, 12 interceptions, which is tied for 19th.
Starting point is 01:17:43 I see them having some turnovers being opportunistic, and I see them beating Louisville, and that's my ballsy pick. I think you were saying the spread is eight. Yeah. I see Pitt getting, not like GVOT, but they started off strong, and they've just dropped the last three. So you give them more points? Do what? You saying they're going to do what?
Starting point is 01:18:02 Money line. Ooh. Pits the underdog by eight. No, I know. Oh, okay. Yeah. I picked Louisville, of course. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:09 That's my bossy pick. I love it. I love it. It's a good one. All right, I'll go. My bossy pick this week is going to be Arizona State. We talked about it last week, Kansas State, they're playing them. They needed that win.
Starting point is 01:18:22 We said, hey, we'll focus on Arizona after they get the win. Now we're focused on Arizona. They're playing BYU. BYU is ranked seven before they're lost last week. Now BYU and the Super Soaker Boys have to come down to Tempe, Arizona, and see the Sun Devils. The Sun Devil, so I believe, are going to win the Bay 12 championship, probably, hopefully, against Colorado. That'd be a hell of a game to watch. It'd be an awesome game.
Starting point is 01:18:42 That'd be an awesome game. The ASU's favored by three in this game. I'm going to move that line. I'm pulling a Compton here. I'm moving that line to six and a half. I think ASU is going to win this game by seven points. They're going to make a statement out of those Mormons in Utah. Wait, wait.
Starting point is 01:18:56 What's the line? They're going to soak them. They're going to soak them. They're going to pull them out of the soaking. Hey, game's over. Hey, stop moving that bed. We're done here. What's the line?
Starting point is 01:19:06 Asu's favored by three. Now I'm putting him to favor by six and a half. Wow. To give them some plus out. Plus 134. Yeah. I mean, yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:14 I like it. I mean, they have fun, bro. They have fun. They look at the time. Everybody, nobody counted them in this. And growing up in Arizona,
Starting point is 01:19:21 like seeing ASU and watching all these kids, these cash from Arizona get the scholarships. We're like, we're all right. ASU just never, I never thought they'd be good. I never thought they had an opportunity for like a playoff hope that wasn't, that didn't even exist when I was in high school.
Starting point is 01:19:35 Now they have like a huge. opportunity and it just fires me up it gives me a sense of nostalgia thinking about tempi thinking about some of the boys that went there it's just exciting and dilly and dilly who i went to high school with yeah which is just crazy yeah he's having the success he did charlie regal who is my head coach in high school he's a special team's coordinator at as u so it's just kind of it's just fun and i hope it works out for the boys obviously when they get to the playoffs i think it'll be a short-lived life you never know you never know you do know if it's army You do know if it's Boise State.
Starting point is 01:20:12 But yeah, you never know with ASU. Never know. True. Balsy pick, Delaney. My bossy pick. It's going to be UCF at West Virginia. Let me tell you a little bit about these teams. These two programs have had three matchups all time.
Starting point is 01:20:28 Okay. 03, 04, 2023. Guess who won all of them? UCF? No, you're wrong. West Virginia has won every last one of them. Three times that they can be. Mountaineers.
Starting point is 01:20:42 Huh? Mountaineers. There you go. So I got to follow suit. You know, I like data. Love data. I love data.
Starting point is 01:20:49 It doesn't do nice data anymore, but you got data. I mean, I don't give a lot of data anymore, but I'd still follow the data. You get what I'm saying? You got to tap it in. You got to follow.
Starting point is 01:20:57 Spreadsheets. It kicks it out. Shows me what's going off. Download it in your brain. You like to speculate with the data you have. Yeah, even if you think, you know, I'm speculating always.
Starting point is 01:21:06 Even when it's right in front of me, I'm still going to speculate. Of course. That's just what I do. So with that being said, we've got to have Gary Green, got to have a great game. This is the quarterback, if y'all don't know who that is. I know y'all probably don't watch West Virginia. No, I don't watch him. So Neil Brown is the head coach.
Starting point is 01:21:23 He knows this game. He knows this team. UCF can't do anything but run the ball. So if you can stop them in the run game, this is an easy game for those guys. Because you got guys on defense like Joshua Tarter, six. line, I don't even know if I'm saying his name correct. Tartor. Is it tartar?
Starting point is 01:21:40 I don't know. Tudor. Keep it rolling. Keep the momentum. And then you got trade latin. Beast, defense. These two dudes on defense is going to be key. If they can stop the run, this is going to be an easy game for West Virginia.
Starting point is 01:21:52 This is plus three, 124, plus 124. I'm taking West Virginia to Wax UCF. That's pretty much all I got for you guys. Nice. Very nice, Delaney. Good job. Yeah. Good job on your balls you pitch.
Starting point is 01:22:05 I mean, come on. suit. History says follow the data on the data and that's what I'm doing. I love it. Fan calling segment. Get to the fan call in segment.

Starting point is 01:24:03 I mean, Notre Dame Money Line does worry me a little bit, but no one doesn't. They're going to win the game. I like how they moved the Texas one down. He's been nervous. He moved ASU line. You need, he had to move those lines for sure. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, smart man.
