I mean, the third option there is you could just stop listening. you could just stop listening that's true Ryan what's another option besides

you know stop listening don't start listening in the first place and then the length doesn't even matter the only way to win yeah that's true Holly do you have another option for our listeners oh she left and she left I'm sorry I wasn't listening the master of non-participation

demonstrated that is itself an option the Alamo Bowl featuring number 10 Colorado the Mighty Buffalo versus Do you want me to say it again? Yeah

The Mighty Buffalo I'm at number 10 Colorado Number 10 Colorado It tickles Number 10 Then number 12 Oklahoma State A fascinating Oklahoma State squad

If you've never been to this game Has anyone been to the Alamo Bowl On this Yon podcast? Nope No No it is a blast It is really really fun because the game itself is held

in like a giant airplane hanger. It's real loud. Everyone there is super drunk because there is nothing else to do in San Antonio but sit on the riverwalk and eat like 15 pounds of chips and get super drunk. But this game is not going to live up

to last year's Alamo Bowl. Please remind everyone what happened in that Alamo Bowl. Boy, a young promising coach named Mark Helfer. took his team to was it a 35 point lead at one point? 31 right 31 against Kansas State and then lost this game in overtime or the other purple big 12 team was it was TCU it was TCU because because you're right thank you I'm sorry because Gary Patterson sweated through one shirt so badly and switched to the

second one, and that's where the magic come back began. And the reason you can distinguish those two is Bill Snyder does not own more than one shirt. That's true. And he doesn't sweat anymore. He doesn't need to. Also, Bill Snyder, Bill Snyder's not going to OT. You know why? That cost extra.

I'm going to keep this under budget. Nobody's working late. No, you kids are having water. Just because we're out for your birthday, doesn't mean you get to have soda. What do you think Gary Patterson's Taco Bell order is? Oh, man. You want to know something sad. I can't even make a guess at this because

I don't know the Taco Bell menu anymore. Just a large cup of fire sauce. I won't. And senna twists. So these days they have I mean he's going to go simple and straightforward but these days they have like the box of 20

tacos. He's going to get like four of those. 80 he's going to get 80 tacos. Yeah just 80 I'll take 80 tacos. I guess the intention of Gary Patterson being so single-minded that he goes through life, like not knowing how to do very basic things like hang up a jacket on a hanger, like just staring at a hanger.

Or think of a proper number of tacos to eat. I don't know, it's 80 a lot. I'm just staring at 80 tacos being like, how much is food? Here's the worst question. What do you think the back of Gary Patterson's car seat feels like after he's eating at Taco Stop that. Stop that. Stop that. The world would be Gary Patterson inside a car with the windows rolled up at eating 80. Now, mind you, I think anyone would smell really bad, but the sweat really adds something there.

Or would it sort of just wash everything away? Would it just carry the debris with it? No, there's a viscousness to it. if you I'm just hearing the alien music now where are we it's like Gary Patterson's Did Holly leave? I think she left

Are y'all done? We're done I'm sorry We won't mention the unmentionable Sorry mom Viscousness of the record Okay so we do actually I think need to mention the teams

Because we do want to say nice things about Colorado right because the mighty buffalo who after years years in the unfriendly wilderness have come to the ranch and enjoyed some success because Colorado won their division Colorado went to the Pac-12 championship Colorado I the word sounds so good coming out of my mouth they won 10 games this year so proud it's beautiful Just absolutely beautiful. The only happy story in this godforsaken landscape.

They basically are. Yeah, it's pretty much the only reason to have watched football this year is that. And maybe watching Pat Mahomes throw for like 800 yards and a hopeless like 20 point loss. That was pretty entertaining too. Every time you say that,

I flash back to Ryan as Mac Brown trying to pronounce Patrick Mahomes. It sounds like Peggy Hill talking to her boggle opponent. My home base. Yeah, they're an extremely fun team. You can see people's highs in Cephal LaFal. Cephala Fow is my favorite player this year,

hands down. Like, nobody was more fun to watch, particularly if you had watched him absolutely get the crap knocked out of him the year prior. to this one, as Colorado waited to blossom into full adult bison hood. They're really, they're a delight to watch. They did just lose their defensive coordinator that usually doesn't show for a bit.

We'll see versus Oklahoma State. Hey, did you watch Oklahoma State this year? No. I definitely didn't watch them lose to Central Michigan, i.e. not even the good directional Michigan. Well, that's because it didn't happen. I don't know if you've read. Not a thing that happened. Yeah, I don't know if you've read

Mike Gundy's paper on the matter, but it turns out scientists are wrong. Mikey leaks. Funny. That's interesting. It's as if you just decided your own reality based on what you wanted to feel. Way to go, Mike Gundy. That's rare. No one does that.
