Starting point is 00:00:55 That'd be Bill Snyder. No, no. The man filled with sand, winding himself up. Yeah, he's the, he's the wizard. He's not the 10 man. No, no, no. I'm saying he's that dude filled with sand from Hellboy. Just unkilled.
Starting point is 00:01:07 That guy was a Nazi, I'm pretty sure. Yeah, I mean, works work, you know? When you've been alive, when you've been alive as long as Bill Snyder has been, you know, it's just mistakes have been made, you know? Yep. Had to pay some bills. Really, really didn't think, really didn't think the Cactus Bowl episode would. be what got us soon. But yeah, we're out here calling Bill Snyder a Nazi. No, no, no. I'm not saying that. I'm saying he's a supernatural being filled with sand. Uh-huh. Who cranks himself to life.
Starting point is 00:01:44 Uh-huh. And works with Rasputin to unleash the wonders of the underworld upon the living. I see. I see. Right. So the Nazi part is not real. The rest of hellboy is real. I, you know, I mean, he just, he just needed a jacket. That's all. He just needed a jacket. Is Brian Kelly Hellboy? You know, and you know how Bill Snyder is about jackets. No, Brian Kelly is not Hellboy, because you know what? Hellboy is undefeated, and he's gone undefeated before.
Starting point is 00:02:14 Brian Kelly? I'll at me when that happens, all right. Cax Bowl! Phoenix, Arizona. This is, the twisted history of this bowl is a fascinating, tiny check. chapter in the fascinating tiny chapter of Arizona bowl games. Arizona for a long time historically in college football, they've just had to make their own stuff, right?
Starting point is 00:02:38 They needed a conference. They made up their own conference, right? They needed a bowl game that Arizona could go to, that Arizona fans would and could attend. So they made up a couple of those as well. One of those? Oh, look, they got the Fiesta Bowl. Is this the Fiesta Bowl?
Starting point is 00:02:51 Hell no. No, no. This is the Copper Bowl, basically, which then became the Inside.com Bowl, which then became the inside bowl which then became the Buffalo Wild Wings Bowl probably their most robust name if we're being honest
Starting point is 00:03:06 and then my favorite name though not necessarily the most melodious the Motel 6 Cactus Bowl The Motel 6 Cactus Bowl It won't get rained on Probably Probably
Starting point is 00:03:21 They'll leave the light on for you Because Arizona's scary when it gets dark It gets very, it gets so dark This has This has one of the worst named Pre-game events The Oasis Cactus Bowl pre-game party Presented by
Starting point is 00:03:41 Minaja Toa Well then Now if you do your homework Which obviously I have You will learn that Menja Toa is the name of a local winery which sure you know what wine wine always has like you can name wine anything you can be like oh serial murderer it's a lovely it's a lovely uh sarah and be like yeah okay i guess that yeah i'll take a
Starting point is 00:04:11 bottle wine names do not have any sort of limits or anything yeah that's that's but that's why ryan and i have named our vineyard dutch elm does loss hey would you like a bottle of Lost children. Oh, my God. It's only $11. That's, oh, that's so cheap. I don't know. I feel like this applies better to, like, craft beer. No, craft beer needs, like, a weird, a weird name. Yeah. Craft beer has to, like, get, like, way out there. Just be like, you know, that's like, Santa's demons or some shit like that. Craft beer has to sound like a metal band. The overlay between wine, it just think of this. Can I name it after a boat that will later be repossessed
Starting point is 00:04:55 in an SEC or federal trade commission case. That's that's it. So like, you know, devil's double IPA, Johnny's crowbar murder. Right, right. You don't put that on a boat. That's craft beer. But like, but like Sharon's asshole. See, it means me, the captain.
Starting point is 00:05:18 Yeah, I think wine though. Wine though is Sharon's asshole in French. isn't flat sure no and and minage atua wine is fulfilling that but like if you are a kansas state or a ucla fan going to this game and you're not going with your significant other send us your name do not go to the pregame party presented by menaj a toailles
Starting point is 00:05:43 it's not worth the explanation that's not going to go well for you it is especially disturbing because the image behind the link to this particular thing depicts two people and the Boise State mascot. Yes. The Cat is Will is telling you to have sex with a horse mascot. See, when Ryan said it won't go well for you,
Starting point is 00:06:07 he meant it might go very well for you. Horse sex is absolutely the name of a wine. Exactly. That's our other vineyard. In French. Manajo Chival is the other vineyard we have. yeah can i just also point this out by the way that that i don't know what kind of a treat this is for for ucla i just really don't because i just want to like kansas state ain't shit change with
Starting point is 00:06:34 them right same coach same system same people everybody's like some sort of linebacker who dropped out of a college and had to go to juco for a while or some tight end who became a quarterback or a quarterback who became a tight end right like that's it's a lot of it's a lot of guys who were like, I served in Desert Storm. Yeah, or, you know what? I tried lacrosse first, and that went great, but I wanted something else, you know? Or maybe somebody who was like, hey, when Circuit City closed down, you know, I rambled around for a decade or so, you know, just made some poor choices. It's a team full of muscular John boys.
Starting point is 00:07:13 Exactly. I did a, I did CrossFit for three weeks, and somebody said, hey, you want to go out for a football team and look, here I am. 42-year-old offensive guard That's nothing's changed with Kansas State You know what's changed with UCLA Everything Everything This is where Josh Rosen ends his collegiate career
