But second favorite, Sylvia Pogoli, because she goes, like, she goes so hard on the name, too, because I don't know, something happens with the Vatican that, like, you know, she works like once every three years.
Starting point is 00:01:46 And they're like, the Pope did something. It's like, call Sylvia Pogoli. And she's like Sylvia Pogoli. I like the chick who, like, they're African correspondent, who's always in either Lagos, Nigeria, where Dakar. Senegal. Her name is Ophabia Quistachton, and whenever she, whenever she signs off with her datala, she'll be like, Ophabia Quistockton,
Starting point is 00:02:06 DACA! And it just sounds like she's so thrilled to be there. And it makes Dakar sound like an even more exotic awesome place, and I'm sure it already is. Like she's saying Chaka Khan. Yeah. DeKa Khan? I kind of like that. DeKahn? There's a rap about Senegal. You're not going to quite pull off. I know you're
Starting point is 00:02:22 writing it. I know you're like reverse this end, but let me do it. We're running it tomorrow. Too bad. It's from my upcoming album Senegambia Senegambia would be the best like Outcast ripoff band right? Because one of you could be Gambia
Starting point is 00:02:37 that would be Senegal. What if that's like the pencil tucky of Africa though? It's not. No, it's probably not. That's more like the C.A.R. That's more like the pencil tucky. We are so deep in the weeds we are never going to get home.
Starting point is 00:02:53 Geography, humor. We brought. You lost me three minutes ago. supposed to be part of this. We brought Doug on and immediately we're into obscure African country humor. Let's bring it back to other The Interstate Highway, oh, so.
Starting point is 00:03:08 Let's bring it back to... On other subjects that I enjoy. We're going to do this. I'm going to intro everybody first, but I want to everybody know we are heading to a place of great poverty and wealth, a place that does involve a lot of oil, a place that involves some religious fanaticism, and everyone has guns.
Starting point is 00:03:24 Texas. We're really going to make fun of Texas here in a minute because, it tingles. It feels so good. I don't even hate Texas and I like making fun of them. But joining us from beautiful Kennesaw, Georgia, as always, Jason Kirk, who we lost him for a minute. Jason, fellow A.T.L.E.N. Actually, like a native, native. Congratulations on the 17th anniversary of the release of Equimini. We are extremely old. We are truly the ancients. We are now old enough to wear turbans and sky. The Power of the Pyramids for The Secrets, which Outcast was searching for in those videos long ago. Yeah, also, the other mystery, why is Big Boy wearing nothing but Mets gear in the Rosa Parks video?
Starting point is 00:04:09 Because it's cheap. Are you kidding me? You can go to Ross and get a Mets jacket back then for about $5. What I like is that... You could right now. Andre's wearing... not in that particular video. Actually, was it that video? Whichever one, he's wearing shoulder pads. Shoulder pads as a shirt.
Starting point is 00:04:26 but what looks weird to us today is Mets? Uh-huh. Yeah. The Piff helmet, that's totally normal. I mean, shoulder pads, that was the style back then, but the Mets jersey, I don't know. I mean, shoulder pads and Jinkos, if you weren't rocking that, they wouldn't even let you in high school. Maybe this was, was this around the time John Rocker was shooting off at the mouth? Could be.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Maybe that's like a, maybe it's a few years before that. It might have been a Tom Glavin thing. Like, maybe he was just huge Tom Glavin fan and decided, I don't know when Tom Glavin left Atlanta. I might be off by a whole decade. You know, we really didn't. I didn't keep track of any year in Atlanta, you know, after they canceled Freak Nick. So everything after like 97, it's just a blur. It's why your kids are always late for school.
Starting point is 00:05:09 That's right. I'm still on 1994 time. Also, we have a special guest, which is Doug Gillette, who is joining us from Atlanta, Georgia. He's actually in the next room. We were just getting some echo. That's right. The call is literally coming from inside the house. just the way we like it now
Starting point is 00:05:27 I wanted to bring this around and let everybody know that we were going to just spend like a good five minutes making fun of Texas Jason would you like to explain the setup first if somebody is somehow not familiar with the great Texas officiated conspiracy I'm going to get Jason
Starting point is 00:05:44 to explain it right now did we introduced Ryan we did we didn't but who cares move on I said Ryan Annie you certainly didn't you certainly didn't and I don't Ryan Annie our national
Starting point is 00:05:55 NPR themes correspondent. All right, so Texas, the Texas Longhorns, it's a football team. It's a college football team. It plays in the Big 12 conference. That's a conference that is not known for its quality officiating. Nope, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:06:11 Over the years and at least the past decade, it's right up there with any other conference. You know, Pac-12 fans complain about Pac-12 refs, ACC-C-Refs, ACC-C-Refs. You know, FCC fans complain about everything, But Big 12 refs, they are right up there with anybody. Big 10 refs, you're fine, apparently. I don't really hear any complaints about Big 10 refs.
Starting point is 00:06:33 But what happened to Texas on Saturday was they were the victims of, and any children in the room you might want to leave because this is extremely explosive and just damaging to the ears. They were the victims of like three or four really bad calls in one game. Easy, buddy. and and you know you could you could take that all the way up to like five which now we're talking more than 50 yards of penalties in one game that they probably didn't deserve which is incomprehensible it's the worst thing that's ever happened to any football
Starting point is 00:07:11 team in the state of texas or elsewhere um do not look at what the same referee the same referee did at baylor west virginia last year when baylor had twice as many penalty yards almost this was the single greatest tragedy and unfairness to ever strike any football team in the history of, dare I say, any group of young men ever in the history of anything. Any person in the state of Texas, I mean, they, it was just a straight up assassination out there. To let you know, first of all, this is what people have seriously posited, that there is a conspiracy against the Longhorns. by the big 12 the conference that is essentially created to orbit what school
Starting point is 00:07:56 Iowa State Texas said it's slightly smaller moon Oklahoma That's right This like binary star system And then all of these tiny little moons With one sad little barren Burning couch sitting out on the moon We call Iowa State
Starting point is 00:08:12 Kansas is just a TV that got launched into orbit And nobody's able to get down I really wish Neil Tyson would stop talking shit about Iowa State, man. It's actually a school, Neal. Exactly. Kansas is like Pluto. Like, we've revoked its planetary status. You're talking about there's water on Mars?
Starting point is 00:08:29 Bro, Iowa State has clean water. It's so much water. Mars ain't got shit on Iowa State. I would rather live on Mars though. Then you've got to put it with Matt Damon. Exactly. I think Ames at least has a Starbucks. I mean, it's got that going for it. I think.
Starting point is 00:08:45 This has not been empirically proven. And I'm not going to go there to find out for sure. I was about to say, we're sending Doug to Ames. No, no you're not. Ames Corresponded. On a quest for America's cleanest Starbucks. It would be the cleanest, though. You have to admit that.
Starting point is 00:09:00 You know, I'm like, like, Ames, I kind of do envy, because, like, they get real psyched about the Starbucks, right? Like, that Starbucks would have a bathroom attendant. You know it would. Well, this is like when Ty Heldon Brandt, he lives in Allentown, Pennsylvania,
Starting point is 00:09:15 and they got a red robin, and he said there was, like, a line, around the block when the Red Robin opened. Okay, I got to tell you, though, for a long time, my hometown, Columbus, Georgia had one Applebee's, and we were fine with that. But then they opened up a second Applebee's over by what Chris Rock would call the white people mall. And it was exactly the same as the first Applebee's, same decor, same layout, everything.
Starting point is 00:09:43 But when they opened up that second Applebee's, it was like Studio 54. There were literally two-hour waits for tables at the new Applebee's. This was Columbus in the late 90s. It was a different time. You can't really understand if you weren't there. But, yeah, I have some experience with that. That kind of sounds like in Sim City, when your power plant can't cover your whole town anymore, so you've got to plunk down to new Applebee's.
Starting point is 00:10:08 And then, like, everything can flourish again. You're getting all the messages from your Sims like, I can't go to Applebee's. This mare's terrible. Food costs more. $8. That's also why you only zone industrial around an Applebee's. You can't cut funding for the Applebee's. You'll regret that.
Starting point is 00:10:26 You will regret that. The Applebee's is deteriorating. How can you tell? It just is. So you basically, thanks Ty Helpy, right? It's to tell us that Allentown's basically like Rangoon when they opened the KFC this summer. That was there and like, they were around the block and like mobbing with security guards for KFC, which fair, you know. If it's the only KFC in town, you got to hit it.
Starting point is 00:10:49 You say that. New York City is about four days away from getting its first Chick-fil-A. It's three blocks from our office, and it's going to... I heard New York City invented Chick-fil-A. I heard you beepie to it. Oh, God. Only in New York. We did.
Starting point is 00:11:04 So it's opening in four days, you say, right? I think it's the second or the third. Okay, so we're five to eight days away from Chick-fil-A is the hottest new trend in the country. I mean, the Dutch actually... Now, the first one in New York. The Dutch actually invented it when it was New Amsterdam. It was called Chook Filet, but, you know, it's changed over the years. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:28 By the way, I'm just heading to Photoshop to open up that picture of Alicia Keys and just add a delicious fried chicken sandwich on top of that piano. It's happening. So the other thing that's really amusing about this Texas officiating conspiracy is that, this. Okay, one, that the Big 12 basically owned and operated by Texas would ever openly conspire against Texas, okay? Two, the history of officiating the Big 12 has a distinctive burnt orange lien. Yeah. Yeah, if you were to rank, if you were to go in rank, the 10 worst officiating calls in Big 12 history, what percentage would be in favor of Texas? Would it be 70? Would it be more? It would be at least half.
Starting point is 00:12:18 I mean, out of 10 to 12 teams at any point, all those games, the calls that stand out to people the most up until this Saturday, even throw those in, throw those two or three worst ones in. We're still talking about most of the calls in all of these games, the ones that stand out, go in Texas's favor. I can remember Mark Mangino back in 2005 or 06 or something like that, dominating a new cycle for like an entire week of college football because he had called out. the officiating like they lost to texas and he called out the officiating in the press conference yeah because the game just went like off on the on the officials the dollar signs quote yeah three it was dollar signs and i got three letters for you bc s yeah bccc yes tex and when is mark mangino ever wrong i know well it's morally and spiritual big max for every meal it's good for you Mark Mangino, by the way, now at Iowa State is offensive coordinator or school,
Starting point is 00:13:17 which whose AD lodged a rant he was fined for against Big 12 officiating. Texas is so favored by the officials that Pact 10 officials screwed over Oklahoma to help them out. It's true. That's reach, baby. That's a global brand right there. Because Oregon's like not even part of this country. Not anymore. Not after what Utah did to them.
Starting point is 00:13:46 Yeah. Anyway, anyway, we're not here to make fun of Oregon. Not yet. No, we're here to make fun of Texas. Give it time. Yeah, it's absolutely easier. My favorite thing, by the way, is this, that the Big 12, who cannot keep its own members in conference would somehow be competent enough to organize a silent and effective conspiracy against Texas.
Starting point is 00:14:09 That's my favorite thing. Anytime you want to explain human behavior with competence, as opposed to, this is a crew, which is the Ron Cherry crew, the Mark Curliss crew, if you're an SEC type, this is the crew that decides that they're the stars of the game. And they just like throwing flags. Just love throwing flags. Here's my question. Why did Texas fans decide that this was the Big 12th's fault when they could have blamed one of the richest men in the United States? T-Boon. Teaboon.
Starting point is 00:14:41 Like, why would you shy away? I mean, the answer is obvious. I mean, I think that's on the table, though. I mean, they've thrown out everything. I think they've shied away from it a bit because then they have to acknowledge that somebody is richer than Texas. That's probably the awkward sticking point. Yeah. I did see at one point this week, someone pointed out how rich T-Boon is.
Starting point is 00:15:02 And in Texas, like, I'm not making this up, a Texas fan did shift immediately from, we're getting screwed over to. Oh, yeah, well, we're richer than that guy. It did immediately break his train of thought, and he snapped back into, no, we're the rich bullies here. Wait, wait, I mean, we're being picked on. I swear to you, I saw this and witnessed it happened. That is the lowest. This is, like, I thought, like, Route 66 would be the lowest point in the history of the Texas football program.
Starting point is 00:15:31 It's not. It's this. It really is reminiscent of what happened last year when Notre Dame lost to Florida State at the goal line. it's not exactly alike because that was that was a fair call and you know there were a few pretty bad calls in this game but just the way that texas fans are reacting as if they've never seen bad officiating before as if when it's happened in games and when it's happened in their favor they didn't even notice it like it really is like texas fans witnessed football for the first time they've been living in their world of burn orange privilege for too long this is this is the scales have fallen from their eyes texas privilege that's what it is mac brown Mac Brown would never let somebody buy the refs off like that? No, they're richer than that.
Starting point is 00:16:16 This is the saddest thing. When Texas has to, Texas, of all the schools in the world, if you've been to Austin, the University of Texas has the greatest recruiting pitch I have ever seen, which is Austin. Breakfast tacos. And breakfast tacos.
Starting point is 00:16:31 And it's a place where if you're dumb, you can have a good time. And if you're smart, you can have a good time. And if you like dumb, smart stuff, You can have, you can do all that, right? If you're white, if you're black, if you're Latino, if you're Asian, if you're Inuit. I bet if you were Inuit, you could have a really good time in Austin. You'd figure out a way to do it, okay?
Starting point is 00:16:52 This is a place that used to use Lyndon Johnson in a helicopter to recruit players, okay? There is no losing. You should not lose. And this is a school resorting to the worst, like the hobgoblin of small minds is not consistency. It's conspiracy. It's them appealing to a misuse of the law, the football law. It's not even a real law, right? Football law done us wrong.
Starting point is 00:17:19 It's so sad. I just think, like, yeah, sure, they probably got screwed, you know, a little. And everybody else has before, you know. Like, to me, it's, it's, sure, you have a gripe. You don't have this much of a gripe. You don't have anywhere near this much of a gripe. It is a welcome reminder that in all human endeavors, football or otherwise, it is much better and usually more accurate to assume gross incompetence than an organized campaign to ruin your life.
Starting point is 00:17:52 That sounds exactly like Texas football. Oh, they fired their AD this year, too. He was the sleeper. Oh, and also today, their lawsuit over who the offense, of course, coordinator is that finally wrapped up. Texas is fine. They're going to be just fine. Oh, can I also remind you, by the way, that Route 66, which, if you don't know,
Starting point is 00:18:20 1997, September 13th, that would be the day that UCLA beat Texas 66 to 3 at home. I remember it. Oof. Yeah. Do you remember when that three, you remember the three? Do you know what it came? It was like when they were already up, like, 56 to nothing or something. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:35 They were down 45. zero in the third quarter and with five minutes left, kicked a field goal to prevent the shut out. Now, Ryan is an expert of sad field goals. Ryan, is that is there any sadder than that if your Texas is at home? No. I'm sure
Starting point is 00:18:51 Tommy Bowden kicked one at one point at Clemson, but I can't remember when that was. That's true. That's a good bet. That's always a good bet. Did Tommy Bowden do something sadder? Yeah, he probably did something sadder. I feel like the late, pointless,
Starting point is 00:19:07 shut out denying field goal is something that he pulled on more than one occasion, but I'm at a loss to recall which specific game it was. I love it because it's a point of unnecessary pride, like the bank has repossessed your house, and you're like, well, I'm taking the lid to the toilet.
Starting point is 00:19:23 They don't get that. Let me just give you... Yeah, wear your copper pipes. You don't know, do you? That's because I got them. Let me say the other thing that I think would be like the knife in the heart of whatever may be left
Starting point is 00:19:39 of the dignity of a Texas football fan that might even believe this? They've stopped listening long ago. No, they haven't. There's one person out there who we're reaching. There's one heart out there we're communicating with. Give me something to hope for, y'all. Because we're talking to them.
Starting point is 00:19:55 So if you're listening to me, Jeff Ketchum. I want you to put your hand on your laptop screen. Yeah. Reach your hand out to my hand on this bad time tour that we're having. is this believing in a conspiracy like that is some Texas A&M Aggie shit
Starting point is 00:20:11 Oh Take him to church Spencer The one thing I want to say is that Texas fans Welcome to football fandom Thank you for finally joining us Now maybe Now maybe this can knock a little bit of
Starting point is 00:20:28 You know all the Texas stuff off of you And now you can just sort of be regular And hang out like the rest of us this shit happens it happened to you suck it up and deal with it also let me tell you this the thing they're complaining against is 16 penalties for 128 yards
Starting point is 00:20:43 fellow fellow Florida fan Ryan Nanny what do you call that that's half time I was going to say that's the first half that's good that's good we were getting after it dude when we were winning we got like 16 penalties for 120 that'd be good that's like oh yeah
Starting point is 00:20:59 that's the first drive of a Miami game go look at Baylor's penalty totals Baylor racks them up you said you wanted Texas to produce like Baylor well now they are finally our Bryles looks at that that's just more yards to get son go get him you fall start again if you want to
Starting point is 00:21:17 hey listen the same place work on third and 20 they do on third and 10 you'd just go out and get that out here in Texas we like nothing more than looking out and seeing the wide open prairie put up the penalty yard that we've given up that we can then recapture if you're so rich Texas think of it like money it's yardage you'll get it back that daddy'll hit another well you'll make more of it next week yeah you'll meet another sheik do a couple of handshakes
Starting point is 00:21:46 that might be true actually it might be i am excited to see which uh big 12 refs get left behind when they play a game in dubai that's true what is he doing like immediately picked up by fita exactly stay there for the World Cup Alan Eck is just out there handing out red cards left and right he'd fit in fine I mean a soccer ref did pull a gun this week
Starting point is 00:22:10 so it's not out of the question I kind of defend that soccer ref by the way that was Brazil that was where they beheaded a ref I think two years ago I'd carry a gun this is Brazil don't give Texas ideas
Starting point is 00:22:26 this is an open carry stadium we cut your head off we're not cutting your head off someone's going to use this stand your ground justification like well he called me for off sides but the other team encroached it was a home game they goaded me into it it's a home game so i'm allowed to stand the ground i think stand your ground would that would pass for texas's rushing game against arkansas i think texas is dead we can just we can let their bodies sit there for a minute admire the work we done we'll circle back to it no no this this horse it can get kicked a little more i got a couple bullets in my gun still be a shame not to use them um but looking forward by
Starting point is 00:23:15 the way we actually have to-da a week an actual week of content one of the reasons we have dug on tonight is because i think the the pivotal game of this week is Cal Washington, oh, I'm sorry, do you finish it on this way? Texas, TCU. There you go. Sorry, sorry. Georgetown at Harvard. No.
Starting point is 00:23:34 UCF Tulane. No. Wait for it. Wait for it? Believe it or not, you're all wrong. That would be Alabama going to Georgia. That's right, son. Hipster pick.
Starting point is 00:23:44 Athens has nothing on Tulane. You know, that's true. In a sense. It's not a fair fight. It really is, like, you know, your open container laws alone we're really kind of leaning toward Tulane there. I will say Georgia fans do try
Starting point is 00:24:03 to trash their own home as much as a lot of people in New Orleans do, so. That's true. That's our attempt to be cosmopolitan. The single... They do it in big cities, hell. That's true. And Jordan's are like the litteredness people I have ever
Starting point is 00:24:21 seen in my life. Like they're up there with like, they are up there with like your worst idea of who litters. Like people throwing whole, I don't, I've never lived anywhere where I've seen people throwing like whole fish dinners out of their like car windows to avoid having a dirty car. Well, you know, I mean, Georgia is the biggest state east of the Mississippi River. So for a while, I'm sure people thought that this was, I'm sure that at one point in, in U.S. history, people looked upon Georgia the way they look upon Texas now. Like, oh, the lions just never end. And we can, we can throw whatever the hell we want.
Starting point is 00:24:55 know, we can serve drink cups, crystal rack wrappers, cigar butts, whatever. There's more land. There's always more land. Our house is dirty. What do we do? Let's just move like 300 miles.
Starting point is 00:25:06 We'll still be in Georgia. And let's burn the old one down, though, just so that no one can move into it. This is nobody taking it. This is also why Georgia has 800 counties so that nobody's response. Nah, that's in your side of the line. Nope.
Starting point is 00:25:19 We don't have to clean that. Exactly. I don't have to clean this side of the bathroom. That's Butts County. Yeah, exactly. We actually do have a Butts County. We do, yeah. There's like Steve County, because that's where Steve lived.
Starting point is 00:25:31 True fact, there are three counties in South Georgia called crisp bacon and coffee, and they're all right next to each other. We call that the breakfast region. Georgia's counties are kind of like that website where like every possible combination of words appears on the website somewhere. That's kind of how Georgia's counties are. Just to bring in hits. Like somewhere.
Starting point is 00:25:53 No, no, it's like this cool thing where, I'll send y'all the link you guys listen on the podcast you're screwed um but it's got like every combination of words that could ever exist is somewhere on this gigantic website but yeah and it's somewhere in in georgia's counties there's like you know texas 31 oklahoma state 30 yeah that's a great county an infinite number of monkeys with an infinite number of typewriters mapped out george's uh infinite number of counties all of them with 700 dollar county budgets all of them at least 700 dollars with 650 going to the sheriff's department.
Starting point is 00:26:26 One of those being Clark County, where Athens is located and where you will be this weekend. That's right. Okay. So answer me this. Why isn't Alabama just going to rip you off limb from limb and make Grayson Lambert look like the UBA transfer he is? Because I think that's what's going to happen. Well, that's that you are perfectly, that's a perfectly legitimate question. You are right to have those concerns.
Starting point is 00:26:53 but I don't know. I like to think that we've learned a thing or two since the last time Alabama paid a visit and was up 31-0 at halftime. I like to think that we've learned a little bit about not causing turnovers and not committing stupid penalties and not letting other teams score 31 points and a half on you in your own stadium and not wearing black jerseys to celebrate all this happening. So, you know, I think that the defense is legit. You know, and as long as we've got, as long as we've got Nick Chubb and Sony Michelle and Keith Marshall rotating in the backfield, I think I like, understand I'm not usually, you know me, I'm not usually this optimistic about Georgia football.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Like, I'm usually looking for reasons to, like, why they'll screw up. I'm grasping at anything I can find to keep me from being optimistic. But I am seriously, legitimately knock on what more optimistic about this Georgia team than I have been. probably about any, since the first few years that Mark Rick was there. I would like to throw out a cruel, an unnecessarily painful way in which Georgia could blow this game. And it's not Spencer's theory of Grayson Lambert just gets knocked around. It is that Alabama plays a game in which they are not the ones missing the field goals. because that is that seems to me like a very very quiet possibility for georgia and it's not so good this year kicking unit to be some sort of cruel undoing the field goal kicking has been shaky that's that's you're not wrong about that i just want i just want to throw that out there into the universe i'm sorry i'm a bad person no i i figure i figured that that y'all that everybody was going to was going to take their shot at why george is going to screw this game up And I admit, this is exactly the game, the kind of game that Georgia, just against all reason and logic, comes out flat and winds up down by four touchdowns at halftime.
Starting point is 00:29:01 There's this, and then there's also somehow Georgia pulls out the win, and then it happens. See, that's what I think is more likely to happen. I had been saying from, like, you can ask my wife, I've been saying this since the spring. Like, Georgia will go one in one in the, we will split the Alabama and Tennessee game. There's no way we win both of those. If we beat Alabama, Tennessee is a prime hangover opportunity. So that's, that is, if there's any hump. Because now you got Mojo working in your favor there as well, because Tennessee, they'll never win another game.
Starting point is 00:29:40 Yeah, no, no, they're done. I mean, if they get up by 12 on you in the fourth quarter, boom, you got them. I said the same thing in 2004, fellas. You say that, but we should not. I mean, we'll talk about Tennessee's game, but we should not jump there yet. That's... Also, and I just...
Starting point is 00:29:56 I would do this. If that doesn't happen, and Alabama does not stomp a mud hole in your hopes and dreams, which they will. October 17th versus Missouri at home. Yeah, that's more like it. Jesus.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Oh, that, that, the... Maddie Mock's return game. The version of the game that you're describing where Missouri beats Georgia is already in my mind. The ugliest game I've ever seen. See, getting embarrassed by a team that has won a national championship in the last few years is not the most Georgia thing that could happen. Getting embarrassed by a team that had to struggle to beat Connecticut 9-6 at home,
Starting point is 00:30:34 that's the most Georgia thing that could happen. Now you're starting to think like a Georgia fan. I would like to explore the universe in which Alabama does lose this game. in Athens how described to me any of you the
Starting point is 00:30:52 zombie like fever that grips Tuscaloosa at that point in time what kind of fatality numbers are we looking at you've seen children of men
Starting point is 00:31:03 okay I was thinking more outbreak but no no I don't think it's gonna be a little more subdued and then a bomb goes off right and there's like somebody holding their arm
Starting point is 00:31:12 in the middle of the street people stop having kids and Lane Kiff in charge of getting the girl with the baby to the boat. Baby's not making it. That baby's not getting very far. So, girl. So, girl.
Starting point is 00:31:25 You want another one of those? What's your name? My wife and I have an understanding. I'm allowed to save humanity. You don't know if that one will work. With my dick, though. Yeah, it worked at Egan's one night. Did you imagine the Blank of saved
Starting point is 00:31:41 the earth of his dick? That's like the most unbearable combination of human. indeed ever I feel like that should be a graphic novel now someone someone needs to all right we'll get him to draw it on the board Kiff the last man Yeah kid that's
Starting point is 00:32:01 I am I am Langeand Lidgen I am Kiffin is fine Yeah Yeah so that's I think we all have our Our predictions on board for this game I just think this is one of those things
Starting point is 00:32:17 We haven't seen Georgia have a limitation yet But I think that's because When people get excited about Grayson Lambert Like the only thing I could think You could get consistently excited about As a Georgia fan Is that the defense has played reasonably well And yes, you do have a fantastic running back
Starting point is 00:32:36 In the offensive lines performed well Grayson Lambert was throwing against air And you have played Honestly, Vanderbilt was probably a better game Vanderbilt probably put up more of a challenge than South Carolina did. Yeah, but UCF lost to that air, so. You can't, see, you can't understand what a wonderful feeling it is to, to, for a Georgia
Starting point is 00:32:59 fan to be able to say, yeah, you know, we haven't played anybody yet. And then remember, oh, yeah, we played Spurrier. No, we still haven't played anybody yet. That, that is a catharsis and an orgasm wrapped up in one for us. It was on the level of when you hear that like a 93, year old former Nazi has been found. And you know some people are like, we got that motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:33:22 It's like he's so old. Like, what is the point of this? No. Put his ass on trial. But justice is going to be done. That's right. Not to say Steve Spruyer is a Nazi because that would take far too much time. Well, let's let's not be hasty. Doug. Here him out.
Starting point is 00:33:38 He would never put that much. He would never put that much time in anything that wasn't golf. Come on. Well, in Germany had a little defense, too. Also, they didn't wear the right hats. That's true. Also, you know, also win streaks.
Starting point is 00:33:56 Winstreeks. Spurs got some long ones. Man. Against someone. I don't know. Teams. Various teams. Too many to list, really.
Starting point is 00:34:08 UCF, for instance. Hey, listen, that UCF, that UCF win streaks holding strong, y'all. Oh, boy. He's going to cling to that. Because it'll get him to a bowl game Just like George O'Leary clinging to life Six wins The other games this weekend of interest, gentlemen
Starting point is 00:34:24 What you've been looking at Jason Kirk If I was to say, oh man, on this packed weekend Which one are you taking an eyeball at? Well, there's Texas TCU. Texas is in that game. That's true. That anti-Texas conspiracy. I'm just kidding.
Starting point is 00:34:38 How are the refs going to screw him over this time? Tiske, tiske. You guys want to talk about Ole Miss at Florida? Nope. Yeah, sure. What's wrong with you? Remember I'm full of bad ideas.
Starting point is 00:34:50 I'd love to discuss that. The big talk last week was that, oh, Tennessee's defensive line, that's just going to run over Florida's offensive line, and things went okay. I think that's the exact way to say it. You need a little strain in your voice to indicate that the statement is technically true. I mean, there's a lot of things pulled out of asses on fourth down and in the fourth quarter, but they scored more points than I think anybody would have confidently predicted. You will also note that all of those fourth downs was when Tennessee decided, yeah, we'll just run
Starting point is 00:35:25 like two, rush like two guys. It's fine. On fourth and 14, converting against a three-man rush. Yeah, just have like two guys guard the Velociraptor Penn. It's fine. Hey, it worked against Penn State. Oh, geez. That game, too, by the way. Like, one of the things that's interesting to me is that Tennessee confidently pocketed, you know, their lead, their 24-point lead, just pocketed it. Just, okay, here we go.
Starting point is 00:35:54 Just walking with this, right? Their 24-7 lead, right? Just, yeah, we're going to ride this thing out for 30 minutes. We're going to try to burn. 15, stay. Exactly. It could work. The dealer is showing 10.
Starting point is 00:36:09 Well, in this case, the dealer was showing five. Let's be fair. In this case, the dealer was showing Uno. I mean, showing what does reverse mean? Yeah. But this is the thing. They thought they could run the clock out because they actually have a decent run game.
Starting point is 00:36:26 Old Miss doesn't have that option. They have to keep passing. So this is bad for Florida, you're saying. Yeah. They don't have the potential bad idea. They don't have the potential bad idea. Like if Old Miss has a lead, they kind of just have to keep dealing, you know? they they they they don't there is no stay there is no fold their their game is the passing game they
Starting point is 00:36:47 don't have much of a run game well and you didn't bring chad kelly in so that you could just hand the ball off and let the clock run out let's be real no no no no no no and also here's the other thing chad kelly ridiculously fun to watch because uh because one they can't run the they can't run the clock out so old miss has to keep pitching they do two he can't really run And they call some design runs for him, which are a delight to watch. Like they called a couple of like QB runs against Alabama and it was just like watching somebody dive face first, face first into a car wreck. It was great. And three, this could go either way for Florida because we have pretty good DBs, a little banged up, but we have pretty good DBs.
Starting point is 00:37:36 There could be picks. You could get fluky one-on-one TDs. it could go either way. Sure, yeah. And then, you know, Florida will play offense. Yeah, and then we'll play on offense, and there'll be problems. But I think Florida can make us learn some things about Ole Miss.
Starting point is 00:37:57 Like... Wow, like the run game and so forth. Like the run game and so forth. And, you know, if we see them do this in a big road game, two times now you know I think the answers a lot of questions about some things they sort of got away with last time
Starting point is 00:38:18 okay okay yeah I mean they got away with some extremely bad throws in the passing game also defensively defensively they're very fast but they can also be misdirected because of that speed
Starting point is 00:38:35 which is probably something that McAwayna like I'm sure that that's That's the game plan. Get everybody moving one way, go this way. Here's why, here's the one stupid non-football reason I think Ole Miss wins this game just fine. It's at 7 o'clock in the evening. And if this were like some buried 1230, even 3 o'clock SEC game, I might say, yeah,
Starting point is 00:38:59 you know, it gets pretty hot, teams maybe, you know, looking ahead. It's a night game in Gainesville. Like, I just don't, I don't think. I don't think Old Miss is going to be caught unawares. No, I think they had their let-down game last week. I think they win this game. You know, I think probably pretty handily by the end. But not, you know, not like a, not a blowout.
Starting point is 00:39:25 That game also, that came also featured a horrendous officiating call that nobody talked about because it didn't involve Texas, but whatever. It one part of a conspiracy, you're saying? It was not. Vanderbilt does not clearly does not have the money to be the target of a conspiracy on the level of Texas. It's always, you know, they're always trying to take down the one
Starting point is 00:39:46 percenters. Thanks, Obama. Thanks, Obama. That's an Obama call right there. Jason, do we have another game that you want to look at? Oh, me again. This is actually a pretty good schedule throughout. Like, even the noon
Starting point is 00:40:02 slate is pretty tough. Like, we're used to noon being just crappy, but I mean, I think we're going to be flipping back and forth. Like, even just two games, West Virginia, Oklahoma, and Iowa, Wisconsin. I would rush either of those. West Virginia, Oklahoma. Yeah, West Virginia, Oklahoma is going to be good.
Starting point is 00:40:18 That's an 11 o'clock kick there. 11. It's pretty far for West Virginia. And they're, yeah, they're the ones changing their clocks there. Yeah, with an extremely good defense, they'll be going up against an improving Oklahoma offense. I think these teams are pretty similar. I mean, they're both running a pretty similar offense now.
Starting point is 00:40:42 Their defenses, I think, have looked mostly encouraging except for what happened to Oklahoma against Tulsa, which, hey, if you can't shut down Tulsa, here comes West Virginia. But, yeah, I mean, I really like the Mountaineers right now. They've given up, what, like, four points all year or something like that. They haven't really played much, but... Third overall in Bill C's S&P number.
Starting point is 00:41:02 There's third overall in the nation right now. Yeah, and if you've watched it, them at all. That really makes sense. I mean, they just have shut down everyone they've played, which includes Georgia Southern. I'm not going to mention Maryland. It includes Georgia Southern. Which, I just shut down Georgia Southern
Starting point is 00:41:16 is something. Yeah, that's way bigger than shutting down Maryland. Yeah, way bigger. Ryan, what's you looking at? So Jason sort of already alluded to it. I also am looking at that Iowa, Wisconsin game. Iowa is unranked right now, but undefeated. And they
Starting point is 00:41:32 can kind of throw the ball. A shocking development, and have, by the way, have gone forward on fourth down a couple of times? Yeah, like, I don't think, I don't think they're, you know, the most dangerous passing attack in America or anything like that, but they'll throw the ball 25, 30 times a game, and they're kind of good at it. But if you really want me to do my trademark thing where I pick a very stupid game, I'll go with Louisville at NC State. because NC State has played absolutely nobody at this point to be 4-0. They have beaten Troy, Eastern Kentucky, Old Dominion, and South Alabama, which is arguably the easiest slate of four games anybody has had at this point in the season. On the flip side of that is Louisville, who has how many wins at this point in the season?
Starting point is 00:42:27 I think they're over. They have won against Samford. They beat Samford. handily, but they have no wins against anyone of FBS consequence. So if they lose that game, like this could be, if they can't beat NC State, and maybe NC State is a fine team, there's no chance that they get anywhere near bowl eligibility. Especially because right after this, they go to Tallahassee. They go to Tallahassee.
Starting point is 00:42:55 They host Boston College. They'll still have, and they'll still have Kentucky left on the schedule. Oh, you got to go to Kentucky. Kentucky's going to win the SEC. anyway, you're in trouble. So, so, like, I'm interested in that, both from the perspective of maybe NC State is going to have, like, a perfectly respectable, like, Dave Doran's building the program eight-win season, and also maybe Bobby Petrino is about to have the worst year of his recent college career. Of his college career. College career.
Starting point is 00:43:27 Nobody remembers him having a non-college career. I don't think. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope, didn't happen. Which would be very exciting to see what Thanksgiving at the collective Petrino household would be at that point. They're both fired. As you know, Paul will be home. Paul's coming home.
Starting point is 00:43:42 You can go ahead and book Paul's flight. I'll take the pull-out couch in the basement. It's all right. Whatever. No, I think they're going to fight over that. You say that. No, man, Paul's taking the bus, by the way. They're going to be smashing furniture over who gets the pull-out.
Starting point is 00:43:57 You say that, but there may be a cousin who has a restraining order against Paul, so he might not be able to come home for Thanksgiving. Paul might have to go eat in the shed. Paul might go eat the shed. Bobby yells at him. Hey, hey, you don't mess up my fuck shed. That's the patrino berthin shed out there. I got to make more patrinos.
Starting point is 00:44:21 I got a Craigslist girl coming over later. That cave has the right aura to produce the optimal patrino. To produce the exact, it has the, the, the, the noise with the ambient noise levels in there. It's just that, it sounds like Bobby Petrino's voice the entire time. 52 degrees, just like our souls. It's made out of text messages.
Starting point is 00:44:43 I have one more game that I'd like to look at, and it is a shocked schedule, like just full, all right? But the other game I would like to keep an eye on, you know, just keep an eye on. Not that anyone's making a big deal, but by taking game day there or anything. Notre Dame at Clemson. because we get to watch Deshawn Watson cook.
Starting point is 00:45:05 Potentially. I mean, he might not cook. Yeah. He might not. I have minimal confidence in his, in his, um, aptitude in the kitchen. I am ashamed of you. I mean, he's pretty good, but like, how many, you know, how many, how many good career games has he had? He could have one that everyone would remember.
Starting point is 00:45:28 Okay. So the future one. I'm going to bet on that. the future one. Okay. So one on the way. He's been a bit of a letdown, which I like him a lot. I mean, it's just always hurt last year, at least, and this year, you know, what do we make of
Starting point is 00:45:42 Clemson so far? Yeah, I was going to say they're in that, have not played anybody to me. Yeah, they've done fine. Yeah, they've done fine. They had the draw of Louisville, which would normally be a game where one might provide evidence that you were good, but this year, that just didn't happen. to Auburn if you have further questions. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:04 So that's what I want to keep an eye on. And also, just in case you want to see the slide, how deep can that Oregon slide go? I don't know. They're at Colorado. That'd be a low. And they're only favored by how many at Colorado? Seven.
Starting point is 00:46:19 It dropped from you. Wow. Oregon is favored by one more over Colorado. Can we also talk about the game that should have been the location of Game Day? Oh, we can. That would be the failed and yet noble IU for college football game day movement, which Crimson Quarry vainly and I think valiantly tried.
Starting point is 00:46:45 That would be Ohio State going to Indiana. And I will be the first one to say this. I will totally watch this game. Yeah. And this is a game that Ohio State could totally lose. Here's the thing. Like, I want to believe you, but I'm also, I'm also considering that, for instance, Indiana only beat Wake Forest by a touchdown, and they only beat Western Kentucky by three points, and they only beat Southern Illinois by a point. So, man, you can't run down the Soluki's like that.
Starting point is 00:47:19 Listen to that. They're getting better by the week. Did you hear that? That just means that Indiana is going to beat Ohio State in like three overtimes. It takes them a little bit longer to put it away each time. But they're, you know, eventually they get it done. I'm fine with that. Just know that on a yards per play basis,
Starting point is 00:47:37 Indiana's defense is just barely ahead of South Carolina's. So that's, so that's, so that's, so that's, so that's, your facts, who you just said, might beat Ohio State. Now watch, now watch them happen, watch them go out and do it and prove me wrong, because I'm very dumb. That's why I live in New York City. I don't think Ohio State losing has anything to do with the opponent at this point. They are so far in their own heads as to what does and doesn't work now.
Starting point is 00:48:09 Like, you know, almost like what, NIU, they got by three points? Three. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, they are so far in their own heads. Okay. So I think the winner of this game is Central Illinois, because with these states, Northern and Southern almost had both of these teams numbers.
Starting point is 00:48:30 So is there another directional Illinois? There's an Eastern Illinois. Well, Illinois, University of Illinois pretty much is in Central Illinois. Yeah, it's like the black hole. I'm not familiar with that one, Doug. The black hole of Illinois. Did you make up that school? Yeah, I did.
Starting point is 00:48:46 I was going to call him the fighting al-I-9 too. How lame is that? That's ridiculous. That's the name from Chicago-Ballis. But remember, Eastern Illinois, that's Tony Romo's alma mater. How's he doing? Is he injured? No, seriously, he's injured? He is quite injured.
Starting point is 00:49:04 Every football team with Illinois's name in it or any connection thereof is not doing its best. I disagree. To say the least. There's one team in Illinois that's doing just fine. But it doesn't have Illinois in its name. Purdue? Purdue. Hey.
Starting point is 00:49:25 The Illini are 3 and 1. Oh, so not Purdue. So that's a real team. Yeah. Remember, they did lose to North Carolina, 48, 14. Illinois was my favorite team through the first two weeks that everyone's like, why ain't we getting any attention? I mean, they wouldn't say ain't, excuse me.
Starting point is 00:49:46 I apologize. But like, someone pointed out the Illinois got like six votes in the coaches poll, and Illinois fans were like, we've scored 115 points. sir yeah and i don't even remember who they played but go beat northwest yeah they were pretty excited about blowing out nobody and then it's kind of like it's kind of like getting off it's kind of like getting off of some like bad drug you feel superhuman for like three weeks then you're like yeah i'm gonna stop going to the gym northwestern is illinois college team yeah congratulations go cats Doug is there is there a late game that you will watch uh i want to know what game you will
Starting point is 00:50:22 watch if Georgia loses, and what game you'll watch if Georgia wins? Oh, I don't, you know, honestly, I don't know that I'm going to be sober enough either way to really comprehend anything that's going to be going on. But I did have a game in mind that I am kind of intrigued by, and it kind of goes along with your, Ryan, your wheelhouse of like a ridiculous game that shouldn't be interesting but could be, and that's San Jose State at Auburn. Doug, you salty son of a bitch! Auburn fans are kind of talking about this game the way that you talk about
Starting point is 00:51:00 the very first time you ever go skydiving. You tell all your friends, yeah, I'm going skydiving, man, I could totally die. And you kind of laugh about it, like you're joking. But in the back of your head, you're thinking, no, I really could die. This could be the most horrible thing that I've ever experienced. I could never see my family or loved ones again. And that's kind of the situation that Auburn. in like they actually could lose this game and i and i can name the cause of death
Starting point is 00:51:28 tyler irvin running back for san jose state there you go who last week ran for 300 yards against fresno state and somebody's going to come back and say well that's fresno state are you sure fresno state is bet is worse than auburn if i and if i give you this if he runs for half that much my favorite my favorite rule with absurd numbers if he runs for half that much that might be enough. That might be enough. Yeah. If you...
Starting point is 00:51:55 Are you saying someone could run for a bunch of yards against sovereign defense? No. No. There is no reason for us to believe any of that, sir. You have no empirical evidence to support that. Let me also... If we would just like to keep adding to the fears here, I'd also like to point out that San Jose State, their recruiting class this past year,
Starting point is 00:52:14 it ranked ahead of Iowa's in Iowa's 4 and O. So what you're saying is that San Jose State should join the Big Ten. Yes, and also they're a better ACC team than Auburn. Okay. The academics at San Jose State are definitely Big Ten worthy. I mean, their school name is bilingual. If that's not a commitment to academics, I don't know what it is. That commercial about the dude who's complaining about how hard it is to make asymmetrical surfboards,
Starting point is 00:52:44 I feel like he's like the dean at San Jose. I mean, my day job is pretty good. I run a university. What's my day job? Oh, shit. I'm late. It's so heavy, man. The questions that we have from readers this week,
Starting point is 00:53:07 got to admit, not the strongest batch. I blame you for this. I know, I know. I did misdirection. It did not work well. But I will start with this, which is from Chris F. Jensen, who we've decided as maybe a very foolish, man because he sent a question into us
Starting point is 00:53:24 love you Chris thank you and also because he is a Chicago Bears season ticket holder yeah he says he's a bear season ticket holder traveling to Athens for UGA Alabama what should I do what should I not do
Starting point is 00:53:40 so I would defer to our expert our guest Doug well what should he do and what should he not do he should not pay more than $25 for parking he should bark like a dog at every opportunity he should not carry around an open container or pee in public
Starting point is 00:54:00 because that in spite of all the people you will see downtown doing that probably at some point during the evening win or lose that technically is illegal and people do get arrested for that yeah that's pretty much all you need to know to enjoy a wonderful game day in Athens. I wish I could tell them to go to five-star day. Yeah, just don't, don't pee on anything. What should you do? I should also say this. In any conversation, just talk about how much nerds suck. Yeah. Yeah. I would like to point out, I know we don't talk about the NFL much on this show, but this man who paid, we estimate at least $2,000 for a single bear's season
Starting point is 00:54:44 ticket is skipping a Bears home game to go to Georgia Bama. and I would like to point out that he is missing them play the Raiders, and I'm not criticizing him for this decision, because the Bears could very likely go to O'N4 at the hands of the Oakland Raiders. Oh, the Raiders are two and one right now. Yeah, so he maybe made a very, very wise choice. I think he did make a wise choice. I'm not even saying that as a Georgia fan.
Starting point is 00:55:13 I think of the two games, given his situation, that's the one that he should go to as in Athens. This is what we should use to illustrate sunk cost, because he can't get the money back for those season tickets. He's making a good choice by not forcing himself to go see the Bears lose to the Raiders and drop to 0 and 4. Like the joy of not seeing that happen is worth $200. Yeah, don't stack opportunity costs on top of your season tickets. And time. You know, you're really, you're going to lose that time watching the game or go to Athens.
Starting point is 00:55:45 Have a pleasant time. You say that. Bears games go pretty quick. Now, the Bears, that's the team that this past week, their coach said to win, we're going to have to score more than zero points. That's true. That's true. It helps. I feel like that's SEC thinking. So I think you're already set, Chris. They had 10 possessions, and they punted 10 times.
Starting point is 00:56:08 Yeah, this will look very familiar to you, Chris. That's an SEC classic. Like, although, although going back to the hole to win, we need to score more than zero points. If you think about it, Frank Beamer scored zero points in regulation. Did he win that game? No, no. No, no. Forget it.
Starting point is 00:56:28 Never mind. Okay, Wake Forest then. Whoever Wake Forest coach is, he can score zero points in regulation. Oh, come on. Don't talk about the cloth fence that way, sir. I know the household. Seriously, Dave Closson, head coach of the Chicago Bears. Oh, that sounds perfect.
Starting point is 00:56:42 So, wait, you want... Remember, this is the same... This is the same sad sack, retread, love, and franchise that hired Dick Geron. So you want Dave Klausen to coach Jimmy Klausen. You just...
Starting point is 00:56:54 My mind, like, my brain is splattered all over the back wall. The Klaus Session. If there was any NFL fan base that would pine for winning a game whilst scoring zero points, I think it would be Chicago's. Like, they would get a charge from that.
Starting point is 00:57:12 Mike Dicca would get rock hard. Yeah. Wow, that's the most horrifying phrase in the history of this podcast. Thank you. I live to serve. That's free birth control distributed by Ryan Nanny. Ryan, you have a reading about Mike Dikazeerax. Ryan, your reader question, please.
Starting point is 00:57:32 This question comes from at zone left, at zone underscore left on Twitter. His question, Randy Edsel or Kyle Flood, who is less likely to be able to keep a pet cat alive. I think I will go with Kyle Flood. Randy Edsel is a disaster, and this Maryland team might be, might end up being the worst Maryland team in a good decade, 20 years, like a very long period of time that we shouldn't be talking about. But I think that's just because he's not a good football coach.
Starting point is 00:58:06 Kyle Flood seems to lack the organizational skills and general life abilities to do things far beyond coach a football team. Kyle Flood is basically just kept in place because a number of, if you can believe this, influential Rutgers boosters want him to stay there. So I don't think Kyle Flood. Nothing about that sentence that you just said makes any sense to me whatsoever. You say that? It might as well have just been words strung together.
Starting point is 00:58:37 You say that, but think about the people that Chris Christie parties with. there's some more free birth control for you God, this got sexy Here's the counter That's how Kyle Flood ends up coaching the cow The counter is picture Randy Etzel Big giant Oaf looking Randy Etzell I feel just eyeballing him
Starting point is 00:58:54 He's about 611 290 Something like that He just looks like a gigantic human With the world's longest khakis Like picturing him trying to pick up a cat He's going to crush that thing No so you're going of mice and men with this Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:59:08 See I don't think Whereas Kyle Flood, that man's got the mind of a cat already. He does. He's already plotting out the shadows he's lurking into and the bugs he's going to bat around once he gets into him. Like he's already, he's basically already a cat. He's just bad at it because he's too big. That's a fair point. And another thing in Kyle Flood's favor, Randy Edsel would probably be instructed by Under Armour at some point to paint the cat some sort of ungodly color.
Starting point is 00:59:38 Another good point. See, I think that Kyle Flood would be more likely to keep the cat alive just because, like, I look at him and he's not a good coach, but I see him trying at least, whereas, like, the cat would, under Randy Edsel's care, the cat would starve, and people would be like, Randy Edsel, your cat's dead. What happened? He'd be like, well, I mean, food was right there. Okay, Doug, I hear it. It's not hard to go get it. I mean, it's the cat's fault for not taking responsibility. I think the cat is going to have three blown ACLs. I hear what all of you are saying. Kyle Flood failed to get one of his players eligible through in an interpretive dance class or a dance appreciation class. Yeah. Cats don't have to know how to dance.
Starting point is 01:00:26 He bungled that. The Kyle Flood and cat comparison really holds up. Kyle Flood did devious things in a really stupid way like cats too. For no reason. For no reason. For no reason. Like when cats are like. When cats are, like, sneaking around, they don't need to.
Starting point is 01:00:41 Or when cats are like, I got a really good hiding place. And it's like the engine block of a car. Or when a cat's looking at you and it's like, now's my chance I'm going to strike. But it wiggles its butt. Yeah. Kyle Flood does that every time his team's about to score. He's done it twice. One of Holly's cats, like, when he's trying to jump up on the counter to get his food or whatever,
Starting point is 01:01:03 like he could just jump up on the little shelf that we've got there. But instead, he has to parkour, like, off two different garbage receptacles and onto my desk and onto my shelf and then onto the cat food shelf. He just makes everything way more complicated than it has to be for no productive reason that I can decipher other than, I guess, just the art of it. I will say that. Nothing about Rutgers football looks complicated, though. No, you have a, that's a clear point. I will say this, but both of them are definitely. cat compatible in that they both got
Starting point is 01:01:38 somewhere they don't belong, which is in the big tent. Also, Holly Holly is a cat person. How'd you get up there? Holly is a Rutgers. Are you going to come down? Holly's a cat person and she went to a Rutgers game. I can't see Holly going to a Maryland game.
Starting point is 01:01:55 Well, she only went to the Rutgers game because she had to. That's also what a cat would do. Holly's Holly's less a cat person in more of a large cold-blooded carnivore person, right? She just can't keep
Starting point is 01:02:08 a shark as a pet. Give her time. Move to Florida. Give her time. Yeah, exactly. Give her time. Jason, your question. Let's see here. First, I want to say here's a secret tip. If you've listened this far, here's a secret
Starting point is 01:02:24 tip to getting your question on air. The theme that Spencer throws out when he makes a call for questions, totally ignore it. This week it was Joey Freshwater, and we have not said a word about that. This whole time somehow. Spencer's a bad leader, I guess, is what we're saying.
Starting point is 01:02:40 I play fake. My play calling is pass on first down, run on second. The whole gimmick to having a successful question is just to ignore what Spencer's actually asking. Spencer is the Mike Shulov podcasts. I'm done. Wow.
Starting point is 01:02:58 So, in this comes to us from Helmerich 47 on Twitter, goes by Sam. SEC campus is ranked as Tony Hot Pro Skater levels. Auburn, if you beat the Auburn level, you unlock Clemson, it just adds a lake in the middle, that kind of thing.
Starting point is 01:03:14 Alabama, there's a cemetery across from the stadium. You get bonus points from like, you know, grinding, hopping from one marker to the next, stuff like that. I really, I think if it's not UCFs, I think another one that you can easily
Starting point is 01:03:30 like grind on pretty much everything on the campus, From what I can remember, Vanderbilt has very little grass. It's just kind of in the middle of Nashville, and they have a lot of stuff that you can just like a lot of railings and stuff. So you could do that. Also, a lot of really nice luxury cars parked in the lots, which, you know, that's always a skateboarding game as to like, you know, grind off people's cars. Yeah, ruin the cars. And like, oh, the man in khakis, you got to run him down and knock him over.
Starting point is 01:03:59 Well, like, speaking of the urban environment, I mean, like, Georgia State. George State's campus It's like this. It's like a theoretical concept. Like to actually skateboard and not leave Georgia State's campus, like you're jumping from like floor 47 of one building to floor eight of another building. That sounds
Starting point is 01:04:15 pretty fun. Kind of like the Furious 7 where they jump the car from one building in Abu Dhabi to the other one. I think that, like once you talk about Georgia State's campus, it's not even Tony Hawk anymore. It's that game where the girl is jumping from, is like leaping from building to building.
Starting point is 01:04:31 Mirror's Edge. Yeah, that one, that one. That's Georgia State. Yeah, I will state this. The best campus for, if one were to play the live-action Grand Theft Auto for that, the University of Miami's campus would be great for that, for a lot of reasons. They actually, they made a game in that series there. What about Air Force, though, for the Grand Theft Auto?
Starting point is 01:04:53 I mean, first of all, it's gigantic, so you're going to need a real big map, and, like, there's airplanes and stuff. There's a mountain you can allie off of. several is one of you is one of you a bounty hunter no it's my doorbell hold on
Starting point is 01:05:09 who's still on booze moose mo's what kind of crazy doorbell is that that's a new york city doorbell okay send him up send him up look at ryan's summoning people send him in all right who's sorry who's joining us

Starting point is 01:05:40 I'm cutting all this out. It's really expensive. You got any public? You got any public places up in New York? You know we don't. Don't say that shit. Yeah. Take you down a peg.
Starting point is 01:05:49 That's right. Oh, but we're getting the chick fill. Y'all, we're getting the chick filet. Get excited. We'll finally get a chick filet in four days. I wanted a bojangles.
