Welcome to the shutdown forecast. Oh, my. We're here. It's rivalry week. Robbery week. Ravelry week. It's easy enough for me to say. Or for us to experience because, remember, the sport makes no sense.

So we have rivalry week over a big holiday weekend. And that means that it spread out all over the place. It happens on like Thursday, Friday, and Saturday for, for some reason, because we just like to, you know, lounge around. It's a sport that just, you know, takes some room. That's fine. We're here for all of it, including, can I just tell you my favorite matchup this weekend by name, and only by name. That would be down between Alabama State, who for some reason is hosting Edward Waters.

I don't know who Edward Waters is. I hope he's ready. I know this. I know this. I hope he enjoys his, I mean, he's thinking about enrolling. That's it. I know this because I went on Bill's podcast yesterday, and we talked about this game, and I looked it up live during that podcast, and now I will forward that knowledge here.

Edward Waters is, if memory serves, the oldest HBCU in the state of Florida. It's in Jacksonville, I think, or near Jacksonville, and it has, according to Wikipedia, 800 students. so not many more than Edward Waters himself it's everybody named Edward Waters in the state of Florida or any adjacent states you get free tuition at your name university all paid for by Edward Waters by Edward Waters he's a great man

depth chart it's 11 Edward Waters really keeps them in disarray who am I covering It's like the thing where, like, football players, they call each other by number. You know, like, yeah, you got nine. In this case, it's not even like, I mean, that's the only way to identify them. It's nine. In retrospect, I do wish that the officials at Notre Dame Navy had loudly announced

every time there was a flag on Notre Dame that it was on Newt Rockney. Holding Newt Rockney! Newt Rockney, sullying the classiness of the sport. This is Newt Rockney's 12th personal foul of the day. Newt Rockney has been ejected. Six times. 30 years later, we're like, do you remember that game where the team playing Newt Rockney had six personal fouls? That's not even accurate.

No, go with the story. It makes for a good script. But that's not this week. I'm sorry. I screwed it up already. I'm already talking about last week. You want to talk about this week, although you let off by talking about not even an FBS game. So good job you, I guess.

Hey, I let off because... Is this how you welcome Jason? Is this how you welcome Jason back? You son of a bitch? That is actually how I welcome Jason back. No, this is all, according to plan. It's apropos. Jason's the only one who roots for a decent football team on this podcast.

Yeah, I did want to mention before we really get going. And since I wasn't the one to bring up FCS football, I will mention that I'm the only one who's, alma mater is actually in a division one postseason game this year well spencer has multiple but it doesn't look like georgia tech's going to be going so what about northwestern yeah northwestern that's true as a middil grad i'm pretty excited about that as a fellow middil grad i um well i think the thing is if you go to northwestern you have to be so objective that you can't care you know so like it doesn't count it's like if you're if you're truly a midill grad do you even recognize did you even know that

Northwestern is going because, objectively, you shouldn't have been paying attention to Northwestern football. As a Middilgrad, I'm excited about it, but only because of what it means for online media. Yes. So many opportunities for rich digital storytelling at Northwestern's holiday bowl. That's generous. Or whatever. I mean, half the Big Ten is going to be in the New Year 6, so Northwest is getting a pretty good spot. That's a fair point.

That's a fair point. So, yes, all hail the owls, all of our love to plank. Plank easily the most duplicable of the turnover paraphernalia at this point. You could get a knockoff Miami chain if you wanted to, but that takes a little bit of work. You could get a knockoff of Oregon's knockoff chain, but you shouldn't do that. You can buy a garbage can and put Tennessee stickers on it. I wouldn't recommend it at this point. You go to Home Depot and you're covered on Tennessee's.

you're covered on organs. You go to... You get can of saza, obviously. Yeah, well, you can just find ours. The plank was originally found in Florida on spring break two years ago. Probably on a beach, no one knows. So, yeah, you might just find one of ours. Beach seems like it's doing a lot of work there.

Beach seems like it's code for... Uh-huh. Yep, on the... Near the beach. Florida, we'll say Florida. In view of the beach. Well, I just like being near the, I just like living near the water. I doubt it was to, um, the Okee for nokey.

You know what I mean? Right. Probably got to be the beach. No, no, no. I just mean like there's a difference between, I found it at the beach and I found it in the bathroom of a grungy bar next to the beach. Found it, found it next to the porta potty in Daytona. It was tipped over. I remember the key to living in Florida.

Man, you know, I really just, I like living by the water. Where do you live? I live near the water. Yeah. How near the water? You know, I live within a day's drive of the beach. And that's really the most important part of living in the state of Florida. It's living somewhat theoretically close to the water.

I'm squatting in an abandoned naval hospital right next to the beach. Right across from the biggest, the spot farthest from water, there's a lake right in the middle with like a swamp. all around it. So you're near water. Yeah, we didn't say what kind of water, right? It's a stagnant mosquito-ridden, you know, drainage pond. But it's, but it's mine. It's ours. Florida State motto is you're always eight feet away from drowning. Wherever you are. Come to the attitude. Yeah, I was going to say, man, that's a really, really good motto for Florida, Florida State. If I can segue and use that. Everyone in this game is eight feet from drowning.

Yeah. It's going to, uh, I do, I, do, I, is a prediction meaningful here? No. Is there any sort of like, cogent analysis that can be done? Thoughtful prediction, breakdown, anything at this point? No. What you, what you should know, dear listener, is if Florida wins, Florida State has rescheduled a game against ULM for absolutely no reason whatsoever, because they're not going bowling anyway. And Florida wins. They fucked. up by not scheduling their canceled opponent.

So that they could go bowling. They might just say, hey, ULM. You want to make a slightly longer trip? Are those bus tickets non-refundable? No, I think, is that, well, where do they reschedule that game? Is that game in Tallahassee? For some reason, I thought they were talking

about playing in Orlando. Well, they might as well, because USF and UCF will be done and that's the state's biggest rivalry game

this year but it's in games going to yeah okay doesn't matter it doesn't matter no it doesn't matter no no one will watch

it's on at the same time as Ohio State Michigan tech Georgia Louisville Kentucky probably be a fight Indiana Purdue playing for a bucket so no don't please don't watch FHU Florida

even Miami Pet is more watchable yeah it's the day before but if you'd rather watch a replay of it. Why would you correct me on that? Why would that matter? I'm trying I'm trying to spread as many things as possible

as to alternatives for watching this Florida Florida State. You do want to watch the egg bowl on loop for 36 hours that should get you through to Florida. You will have food poisoning after that. We're going to, I think Perry Costa Dacus made the best hype video for Florida, Florida State, which was, if you watch it, it's a video that's nothing but the worst plays by both teams

set to Father Stretch My Hands, right? So it's this majestic gospel song that's just backed up with Florida fumbles into end zone. Florida throws 40-yard interception with flair. Florida State gets run all over by NC State. It's majestic. I can't. I can't.

We just, we don't have to. No, no. Let's, let's, let's, let's back in a, bumble. Let's start. Let's, let's back, let's back, let's back up. We're jumping, okay? Thanksgiving night. Thank you.

Fight this game on the entire fucking schedule for the whole year. Ole Miss and Mississippi State, their schools on Monday or Tuesday, this week, we'll say early this week, their athletic directors reached a, released a joint statement saying, basically, can you know, please not fight in the stands? Which means there's definitely going to be fighting in the stands. Which means there's already fighting in the stands. You are looking live where the bloodshed is underway here at Davis Wade Stadium and Starkville, Mississippi. Yeah, yeah, Mississippi State fans are already setting Home Alone-style traps in the Ole Miss section, I'm sure. You'd be like, huh, what are those paint cans doing? Probably nothing.

Let's sit down. They're all customized to lure in Ole Miss fans. deviled eggs why i do declare a stack of red plastic cups just just itching to be to have a ping pong ball filled with tasted beverage i do if i could if i could just so if it drops on your head if i could just fill myself up for the winter just for a repast a quick a quick snack if you will i suppose a little irish coffee wouldn't hurt There's like a maze of tints. Yeah, Egg Bowl is going to happen. It is the game that I think has the most disproportionate spite and anger to larger consequence, right? This is the couple arguing in the gift, the shopping portion of the Cracker Barrel, where you're just like you didn't have to do this here you could have done that at home it's not this isn't

important what you're fighting about like what is going on here so with fighting at the table while eating your um 1,200 calorie meal be higher higher stakes I think that's Miami Ohio Michigan Ohio State that's that's yeah that's about it's but yeah yes yeah that's that's where every biscuit matters and we were I remember when you took the last green bean 80 years ago, you son of a bitch. I think in that one, they're both staring straight at each other's eyes, one foot apart, eating off of each other's plates. It's a race to see who can finish the other's meal first. I don't even like this food.

I hate what you ordered. I'm so glad you exist so that I can hate you. I'm ordering a hauberger. That's how much I hate you. I ordered three salads, you son of a bitch. You ordered salad You're so not worthy of the Big Ten It has cheese in it

Calm down It's mostly cheese It's cheese and meat I'm putting light dressing on it Fuck you The Michigan guy would be like You know salads encompass a wide variety of things Categorically, it's very diverse

Salads anything you eat out of a bowl With a fork that doesn't have rice so spaghetti is salad spaghetti is salad spaghetti is salad god damn it the Ohio state fan just sitting there putting their supplements on the table big thing

like you know branch chain amino acids just oh man but this is the week that they got to call it Etricks you know that guy from Game of Thrones the Outen

he trained for these that would be gay of Thrones which is a spinoff that you can watch it's pretty good yeah it's pretty good don't watch it with the kids it's very so the egg ball

if we survive if we as a country survive the egg ball on Thanksgiving night which can I I mean really this is a guarantee this is if I can make a call for the egg bowl there's no way that old miss doesn't lose this at the last second for maximum pain right oh

things have been going too well after like a recovery and sort of like a quiet you know not a bad year considering the complete implosion of the program uh it feels very not old miss you're like oh man it's ending on a happy note not for long yeah well and rivals always like to say we're their super bowl you know we're We're the biggest game to them. We barely care about them. For Ole Miss, this really is all they have. This was the only game they're playing all year

that actually has the word bowl in it, even though Deerly Departed, Hugh Free said he planned to treat every game like a bowl. They never got around to putting those names on the schedule. And Matt Luke ain't got time for that. So you get one bowl, and this is it. On the other hand, there is the possibility that Dan Mullen continues to bubble up in coaching conversations over the next four days.

And, well, shit, over the next two days, I don't know when it is. It's tomorrow. Yep. Great. And Ole Miss just stomps Mississippi State just to ruin his hopes. So that everybody's like, okay, well, you know, we're very impressed by what Dan Mullen's done. I think we're ready to sign the contract. I'm sorry, he lost to Ole Miss by 28.

Huh. Yeah. You're stuck in here with us out. I do. Flat, yeah. And then Friday, who, where do you want to start on Friday? Brother, we got the war on I-4. Which one?

The biggest game in the state popping off. You know what? Why do we have to talk so much about football in the state of Florida? It's the state of Florida's most important game all year. It is. This is, that's actually completely true. That's the most important. game. That is until Miami

loses to pit and has to play UCF in a group of, in the New Year's Sixth Bowl. I love that the war, that this is the war, that the war for I, the war on I-4, like, because if you've ever been an I-4, it's one of the worst stretches of road

in America, which simultaneously both devalues and burnishes the toughness of this rivalry because it's devalues by, you get this derelict eye-hop, you get this Perkins, You get this terrifying anti-abortion billboard, and you get this one. And then, at the same time...

This is for all the Indian River Fruit. Right. The winner now owns 18 McDonald's franchises. From an anonymous highway spur in downtown Tampa to Orlando. You are king of the Reebok outlet store. Isn't there a town, like a, like a, like, isn't there like a, suggestion of a town in between called like Orl Lampa or something

Oh God I've never heard of such a thing and if it exists I don't want to go there It's like a sign where they were like Let's put a town here and then they never did or something like that Let's manifest it Tamp Lando God

But if there is nobody wants it And that's why this is actually like As close to any game will come To being Fury Road Because you'll say oh isn't that like a spectacular desert Nope nope if you want post-apocalyptic hellscape i force already there it's just a race it's just a race there and back and it's not entirely clear why why any of it happened where did you go well we went out to nowhere and we came back to nowhere with a

fountain and why was it to murder oh okay that makes sense that's very florida that part see see fury road and florida all about living by the water like i said perfect you got so you got you got postseason stakes you got conference stakes the winner's going to play memphis for the for the junior important bowl what an awesome what an awesome conference it really is like that's awesome you're like the winner of tampa and orlando we'll go on to play memphis in the wrestling bowl it's like our own little uh usFL the yeah the american at this point is the and like an unlicensed NFL video game where you're like wow they have who who am i playing what that's weird tecmo bowl the original tecmo bowl when it was like the 49ers were like orange yeah um the the other game around here that you will want to pay attention to for very different reasons is iowa nebraska where to begin with this the most this is maybe the most miserable Thanksgiving rivalry.

Like if Ole Miss Mississippi State is the angriest and Georgia Georgia Tech is the hateonest, this is the one that just feels like everybody is wallowing. Like it is this weird referendum where losing is bad for the coach who's inevitably on the hot seat, probably for Nebraska, maybe for IOL, although it's been proven that there are no nerve endings in Kirk Ferrence's ass at this point. So the temperature of the seat is irrelevant. Winning does nothing for you. And the game itself, like, what's the best Iowa-Nabrasca game that you can remember?

Can you? Bill just wrote about one today. He did a cool post, like, the recent history of college football is told by, like, a bunch of key games in these rivalries. The score in this game, I believe it was 10 to 7, and it's from, like, the 80s. So there's your flight. Okay. Perfect. That's all you need to know.

This is, yeah. I mean, I feel like this game every year, you get some AD or a conference suit saying like, well, we'd like to turn some of these Big Ten West games into rivalries. We're thinking maybe Iowa and Nebraska, and fans on both sides are like, no, fuck that, no, no.

We don't want to be rivals with them. And like, so if you're all saying that, you got strong emotions about this, you know? I mean, I mean, let's. Just slide them over in your emotional scorecard and say you actually don't like each other. They want to keep this game on Black Friday, and I think that makes sense because Black Friday is when companies try to sell you, inventory that they don't want anymore, that they want to clear out before the end of the year, they want to move it as cheaply as possible, and there's usually a stampede that leaves somebody dead, and you sort of look and say, well, why? Why were you at that Walmart in the first place? Look at the choices you've made.

that's the Iowa-Nabrasca rivalry in total it's a 42-year-old single man getting trampled to death at the mall because he really wanted a laptop that he could have bought online so it'd be such a great weekend this game needs it all good rivalries need a name um do we go with like the door buster bowl or the battle for the 55 inch tv or what god for Nebraska Iowa Yeah, yeah, yeah. Battle for the savings. It's the battle for the flat screen. It's not even a valuable thing. It's like, it's like, oh, you got a salad shooter. Congratulations. You got a blender for $8.

The clash for the $8 blender. The only thing left at Coles at 6.30 in the morning. You want a Black Friday rival a game with stakes. Yeah, let me Point you to the Commonwealth Cup Who saw that coming, huh? No, that was good That was good, although I do want to point this out

Before we leave this If you want to know how this game's going to go Yeah Is this a really, is this a money game for Iowa in any sense? Oh yeah Yeah, they all are Yeah, it's a money game Because

Because if If Iowa manages to hit eight wins, right? Yeah. Kirk Farrantz gets another $500,000 on his contract. I've ranted about this far too often on this program. I refuse to do it again. You know, the global economy is going to collapse anyway,

and then it'll prove that Iowa was smart all along when these dollars are worthless. I just want to get, could I just get you? Where does Iowa currently sit? Iowa currently sits at? I'm going to guess seven and four. Currently six and five. Oh, six and five. Okay. Currently six and five.

So they got to win this game and the bowl game to get to the eight? Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Okay. That's the magic happening here, okay? So, so yeah. Also, if Iowa defeats Nebraska, an extra 2.4 mill will be added to his buyout. What a weird stupid season for Iowa.

You look back and you're like, oh, they almost beat Penn State at home. They clobbered Ohio State. They beat Iowa State, which ended up being a pretty impressive victory. They played Michigan State close on the road, which that's not terrible either. And then you're like, oh, you also lost to Purdue and Northwestern. And I don't know what the hell you're doing. You weren't competitive at all against Wisconsin. Just a weird stupid year.

Iowa football. Oh, you know, you say that, and you know what I say? Iowa by 30, baby. Everyone's, everyone on the team's like, man, I don't know. The coaches are just like, I mean, Coach Kirk is just, he's just on us this week, man. Most important game of your lives, boys. Here's why I know, here's why I know that's, well, okay, fine, go ahead. No, I'm not, I'm just not talking about it anymore.

I'm not. Jason wants to move on to Commonwealth Cup. We're going to move on to Commonwealth Cup. Yeah, I was also going to say we, we didn't fill out the forms to make jokes about Iowa so we should move along before um before we get calls so you got virginia tech is ranked um no big surprise there virginia is already bowl eligible big surprise there uh and i think a few years ago this was a battle for ball eligibility maybe like two or three years ago it's yeah i feel like there were a couple years in a row where um virginia needed it for ball eligibility and yeah

two years ago was when both teams needed it so like for the first time in years, we get to see two actually good teams playing this game. And it's a, you know, it's in the night spot, uh, Texas Tech Tech, Texas. That'll be really stupid. But, um, you know, I, I think with those too, you got a, you got a really nice Friday night spot right there. Virginia has not won this game since 2003. Yeah, and they're, they're not winning it this year either. Oh, really? Virginia Tech has, Virginia Tech has, Virginia Tech has, has been uneven, I think it's fair to say, over the course of the season, right? Mm-hmm.

Mm-hmm. But. Virginia had Miami on the ropes. Virginia went and blew out Boise State. Man, you want to talk about, like, we will compile a list of great blindside ass kickings that happened this season, and it will be long. And one of them is Kurt Bankert going off on Boise State out of nowhere. Kurt Pinkert was the greatest quarterback alive for three and a half hours against

that was the case against miami too he started like fucking 20 a 21 or something i mean when kirk banker is motivated get that fuck out of his way kurt binker just blacked the fuck out and completed 25 straight passes like will feral in old school he went blind on that verse son just dropping fire what i say oh it was flames okay good could you do it again on purpose no no no no no no wouldn't recommend it even. And then we're still waiting on Brett Bilema's news, I guess, for Missouri, Arkansas, also on Friday? Yeah, because, because, you know, we know people are going to get fired, right?

We already got one on deck, right? Yeah. We got, we got Texas A&M on deck because they've just decided that they're parting ways with Kevin Sumlin and they're telling everybody, which is really. cool to do to a guy just over the holiday weekend. Well, you say they're telling everybody. They're not telling Kevin someone. It's the best part. That's in case we didn't emphasize how bad this was.

Yeah, not telling the staff, not telling Kevin someone at all. But tell them reporters, it's going to happen, y'all. You make sure to tell Kevin if you see him. We just can't get a hold of him. Yeah, I don't know. It's crazy. Don't have his number. Which means Texas A&M is going to beat LSU by, I don't know, 20.

Yeah, yeah. Remember, this was the game two years ago where Les saved his job by beating A&M. And the game last year, that was overtaken during, on social media and the broadcast itself by coaching rumors. So A&M, LSU, if there are weird coaching circumstances going in, they will change by the end of it. Yeah. Which team is more likely to pull an up? at noon on Saturday and potentially knock its favorite opponent

out of the playoff. Technically, it wouldn't necessarily knock Georgia out, but two lost Georgia at that point will be definitely on life support. Ohio State will definitely be, I don't know how on earth how Ohio State would be out. But if you got to go Michigan, beating Ohio State or Georgia Tech beating Georgia.

I don't know. I don't think Ohio State can ever be out. Really? Be like, yeah, they're, the three and nine, but the three were really impressive. Yeah, and to the playoff committee, that meant a lot. Let me think back, like 2014, they jumped three spots at the last minute. 2015, they were a one loss that was kind of within range, and if Michigan State had, you know, dropped a game or two,

they would have been more talked about. And last year they made it in as the first ever non-champ. And like this year, there might be the first ever team to get their ass whoop twice and make it in. So why not make it three? Lose by Michigan to 20. Two weeks later, you know, Ohio State's hanging around right there, number six. Here's the question. Do they even need to win the Big Ten championship at that point?

Can they just lose it close and get in over Wisconsin somehow? Yeah, a nine and four Ohio State. I mean, what is a championship prove? That's just trying hard. You know, champions are confident. They don't need to prove anything. We consider, we have the committee think of the championship like the SAT, and no, Ohio State didn't get a 1600, but it was a 1580, which is very high for Ohio State, if you'll check the records.

And so that impressed us quite a bit. Ohio State got a 700, which would be an incredible ACT score. I like Dan Rubenstein's suggestion most about what the playoff, what, like, Kirby Hokka is doing before the playoff committee comes out and explains what the hell they're thinking, which I don't think they need to do, but that he treats it like an improv game where he's like, okay, somebody, give me a team, give me an emotional adjective or noun, and give me a meaningless business term. And he just sort of improvs it on the spot where he can be like, well, we thought Ohio State's sticituativeness was more impressive from a consistency regression metric

than Wisconsin. And that's why we've decided to elevate them in the polls. It's wonderful. They don't have to say anything. They're not obligated to explain. Kirby Hooker could just come out there and be like, yeah, we can do whatever we want, thanks. And that's the whole press conference. But instead, meaningless jargon gobbledygook. Yeah.

If they really cared, they would write a brief explanation of each team and publish that. But they don't. And that's fine that they don't. It's just people are, you know, it's going to frustrate people every single week. and it's going to add to the they just make it all up as they go along a sense that people get and do you think Kirby HoCut

is like a stooge, a fall guy like is that even the real Kirby HoCut do they just send an actor out there who's never watched football before and like what did you say this past week they got everybody going oh it was Miami Jump Clemson

because they showed a lot of poise by letting Virginia score you know 28 points I think this should get I think this should get quality character actor Gary Cole to do it. Just hire him. People would be, people would, they wouldn't object to anything. He has gravitas. He has an authoritative speed. Yeah, this is a great idea.

Yeah. Just, just have him, um, just have him, you know, make things up and people would go, you know, that argument doesn't make sense. But man, you know, you're one of those guys who, if you're in a movie, that's probably a pretty good movie, dude. Maybe. It depends on. the movie you know Gary Cole's gonna be fine you can be like man you were crazy Talladega nights yeah if you were you can't we you wouldn't want you to be the lead no third on the bill yeah that's fine that's yeah just like anyone who explains the college football playoff you're a bit player that's true embrace that bitness yeah yeah that's fair um yeah i don't i don't see either

georgia or ohio state losing and i know that i've done a really good job this year saying, oh, X-Team, Oklahoma definitely won't lose to Iowa State. Well, they did, but TCU definitely won't. Well, Ohio State, no. So to the extent I am double-jinksing this, Spencer and I both thought Georgia was definitely going to beat Auburn, and they didn't. It is hard to see, in part because these teams, Michigan is beat up. Georgia Tech is kind of like tired and wobbly and sort of like, yeah, we said we'd play 12. fine I would can I give one one factor okay yeah please I still don't think Michigan's

gonna be able to score at all right just at all right and I really don't think Georgia Tech is going to be able to even block Georgia on either side of the ball I just don't think it's a contest however what is Georgia Tech's record right now they're five and five that's correct that's correct meaning it's for a bowl game boys And if I can see anything extremely funny happening between these two games, the funniest possible scenario is that Paul Johnson absolutely pulls out every stop and torches the larger ambitions and hopes of the Georgia football program so that Georgia Tech could go to like the lowest tier bowl possible. Wrong. You're almost there. So he'll do that. And then in the post game, they'll be like, well, you know, Paul, coach Johnson, bull eligible, huge upset win, two in a row over Georgia.

Now you're looking forward to the postseason. He says, no, we're skipping it. We're not doing none. The planner, the planner invite. Oh, oh, the real tears of joy that I would cry. if Paul Johnson did the most haters thing in the Like aren't you guys excited about going to Shreveport

Yeah we're not going to Shreveport We're walking away from the table while we're up We won $83 Don't see a reason to keep going Thank you. Have a good night Well, and then after that group of games No After that we got a

Another bowl, I'll just point out, by the way, if they're going to fight hard in order to get, you know, three or four nights at a, you know, a modestly priced, but still nice hotel somewhere in America and a couple of free bowling outings. Duke sitting there at five wins versus Wake Forest, motivated. David Cutcliffe, highly motivated. Indiana and Purdue, same thing, right? Yeah, a bowl on the line for both. which would which I think for for shit arguably all four of these programs you're like damn you made a bowl this year that's pretty damn good if they do so and then uh in the middle middle slot iron ball coming at you just you know little little iron bro I'll be there

one of the two three four five most important iron balls ever so they're all important Listen, listen, you will stop disrespecting Alabama and Auburn. They are all the most important Iron Bowl ever, all right? I'll try for disrespecting the 2001 tied. They are all tied for number one, most important Iron Bowl of all time. Yeah, so like I said, most important Iron Bowl. Yeah, he hasn't said any, he hasn't said a lie. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. You're going, Spencer? Oh, yeah. It's going to be my first Iron Bowl. Oh, boy. Oh, yeah. we'll get we'll get some business out of this it's also um it's also in albert which is uh great because it's a very easy drive unless you hit traffic wrong and you have to wait seven hours

to get out of auburn because auburn has like it's like clemson there's like four roads i know that everything in albair is like clemson there are like four roads that come out of the entire thing albairns like a town like and not even like a classic college town it feels like you're just you're in the burbs in a nice spot of the burbs and then oh oh there's a gigantic stadium right there the village it's the village on the plains and they really mean it it's just a village it's a it's a nice village it's like a neighborhood with a 90,000 seat stadium in it completion of the Auburn like Buts out plan right phase two yes this is

phase two of the butts out plan in order to get both cheeks of the ass firmly out and thus play your literal ass off in order to make the maximum chaos possible in the college football season auburn has beaten georgia out of nowhere we're all surprised right two of us were two of us were surprised by that one of us is lying one of no one of us is one of us is one of us is the sandman who can see all things and knows all outcomes. Run it back. Run it back. I'm sorry. The Sandman was right. Thank you. The Sandman just took the truth in his hands and throttled it till it spit out

a forecast. And pass that on to you. And if we hadn't been stupid. It sounds like the Sandman jerks off and picks around. That's what the Sandman is all over the place. The erotic the erotic massage

of the sandman's wisdom don't come in here the sandman's pouring over the betting lines talk about a bad beat he's going for the trifecta because of powerful Chinese medicine herbs that can't be controlled that's

I think this is the game where if they do this Auburn will have officially like completed the butts out plan and thus been the most chaotic team in all of college football and will be like one dumb collapse against LSU away from being like unquestionably in the playoff right yeah at that point all they got to do is beat Georgia and then they're in yeah they put their whole ass in the playoff I think that's right um Bama to date the best rushing defense they've played is Mississippi State and Mississippi State averaging 3.76 yards per carry allowed. Auburn is like 20 spots above them at 3.14. Auburn will be the, it is just statistically, the best run D that Bama has seen all season. There is a weird thing where by and large, most of the defenses that Alabama has played, at least against the run, have just, they've been fine. Fine, but they're floating in, like, LSU's average is slightly worse than Louisville's and slightly better than Notre Dame's. They have not had, Mississippi State was the first time that they, like, had to face a defense that could really push them in uncomfortable ways.

And Auburn is going to be that plus, like, two or three or whatever it is. Well, Alabama's defense is healthy at least, right? um about that actually apparently a little little thin at the linebacker spot that's you know fortunately

Auburn doesn't do anything to mess with linebackers they all focus on your um safeties lots just lots of deep shots this also this also feels like the thing that we're going to over overthink though where we're like oh well you see that dragon

over there he's got mono so we can probably kill him. So now his fire makes you sick. Yeah, I like that. Oh, Bama's depleted. Which, sure, that's a factor. You know, who's stepping up?

The former number one recruit in the country is starting a linebacker now. Yeah, Bama's still the statistically the best defense in the country. So, like, it hasn't really affected them. But I don't know. What is the point total that you think either of these teams has to hit to win this game? Because it feels like it's first to 25. I had 24. Okay.

I'll talk you down to 23. Okay. 18. Big Ten fans perking up. I just feel like the thing that, the thing that nobody is done at a crucial juncture in a game against Alabama when they have even wobbled a little bit, no one's managed to limit. Jalen Hertz and Calvin Ridley that's they've just been easy money every single time they needed a long third down nobody's really sort of consistently come after Jalen Hertz and Auburn has a D-line that can do that they really do like I they've got an incredible D-line but they're going to have to get the

pressure because I don't think the secondary can hold up against that so if you see something in this game that you go you know like where where is there a bad matchup right I'm pretty sure Alabama can get Jarrett Stidham into some very uncomfortable positions. I don't know if Harvard can do that with Jalen Hertz. Do you mean, now when you say it, do you mean Jalen Hertz as a passer, as a runner, as both? I mean it as a guy who can keep a play alive long enough than the Calvin Ridley gets open. That's it. Like if you look at Mississippi State, they almost exclusively used Ridley downfield in bailout situations and got what they were looking for in large part because

Yeah, Mississippi State pressure hurts, but they still didn't stop him from getting crucial first down in some big plays. They didn't. Now, some of that admittedly is third in Grantham. Some of that is obvious blitzing that everyone in the stadium, including Alabama's offensive staff, saw it coming, especially not changing that out of a timeout. Dumbest thing I've seen on here. But yeah, like, that's something that I haven't seen yet. If Auburn does that, it'll be the first time. because Jalen Hertz really isn't allowed to be that spectacular,

which is why people underrated. He's much better than people think he is. I like how Bama's offense for years, it was like, oh, they have three plays, run left, run right, and run up the middle. And now, now that they have, you know, like multiple exciting dual threat quarterbacks and have for a couple of years now, it's run, see if Ridley's open, or Hertz run. You still just have three plays. The best part is that if you're not an SEC, if you have no SEC affiliation and you are rooting for Oklahoma, Ohio State, maybe Wisconsin, but you're probably winning you're in, fine, maybe Clemson, the same sort of situation, Pac-12 team that is hoping to, like, come out of nowhere and that's not happening. I don't even know why we're talking about it.

TCU, you have to root for Alabama because if Al, I mean, Jason sort of already touched on this in something he wrote, but there is a reasonable chance that if Alabama loses this game, but doesn't look bad doing it. And even then, the committee has sort of like, I don't think has a consistent stance on if you get pants, that's worse than if you lose close. He still might get in. We still might sneak in there with that one lot. and not going to the SEC championship game. Yeah. I think the committee speak for getting blown out is,

did not look extremely competitive, that kind of thing. Yeah. So as long as you look competitive in your loss to Auburn, you might have already clenched the playoffs. Yeah, which that's a weird position to be in. Most of the time you would think that you would want to be rooting for the upset for number one to fall, especially given that, you know,

the non-conference didn't end up being that meaningful. The teams they played out of the east, neither one of the, like, both of them are fighting for basically last place at this juncture. There are enough sort of other indicators that sort of say, like, wait, maybe Alabama shouldn't just automatically get this spot, but I don't think it's going to work that way. Roll that time. That is pretty interesting, though. If you're, you know, Ohio State, TCU, like, you, it would actually be better for you if Alabama wins.

Yeah. Because then that definitely knocks a team out. I will say just getting down to like another thing that maybe keeps Auburn in this game. Carry on Johnson's been incredible. He's been good. He's been really good. Very big, very mean to tackle. If he's like, the thing is they don't even have to be that productive with him.

They just have to get stuff open down the field, which when has Alabama ever sort of lost a big game? Because they couldn't defend the past outfield. Hmm. Hmm. Just saying. Throwing that out there. Yeah, you want too bad. I'm just going to win by 17.

Exactly. But I still want it. And if it happens, I look right. And if it doesn't, it's, you know, what? No skin off my back. That's fine. Auburn's going to win the football game. Oh, man.

Is the Sandman calling that? The Sandman. All right. All right. If Samman, let's test your skills here. Wisconsin, Minnesota, huh? Who you got? What's the spread?

Listen, PJ Fly, getting that extension. Oh, yeah. Got a little money. It's a little spending money. He's about to spend it on some yards. How many? So the spread is Wisconsin by 17 at Minnesota. I'll take Minnesota plus 17.

Wisconsin doesn't really have anything to, you know, just get the W, get out of town. Yeah. Wisconsin, or Minnesota rather, has gone from scoring 54 points against Nebraska. to getting shut out by Northwestern. Sure. Great. Wonderful. Yeah.

A team that is lost to Maryland and Purdue and Iowa. Yep. Contract extension for beating Illinois and Nebraska. One school that's going to fire its coach and another one that, unfortunately, is like, whoa, we owe Lovie Smith, a lot of money. I don't know. Ah, geez.

But that's fine. I hope Illinois finds a way to. be on its like eighth coach in two years somehow it's a good program they've got going there hey if you never listen if they never work 40 hours a week legally they're not full-time employees and you don't have to give them benefits i think that's how that works hey you just need to know this okay you can call you can call p j fleck you know you call p j fleck you know a bad landscaping service because he's going to be giving up some yards gonna be losing yards it's like 500 of them did you did you stretch before that because what a reach what a fucking reach speaking of reaches get p.j if like to get that contract extension so i'm like totally there are there are no reaches now i always love this get your get your eyes off my man that's my favorite thing when a school does that move we'll give him a contract extension because somebody's looking at him he's too pretty yeah actually nobody was looking at him we're double married now so

let's see the news that preceded this was kent state fired paul haynes so did minnesota see that and think he's going to return to the mac i know nobody in minnesota talks like that but i just felt like that that that is the that is the that is the accent that fits that sentiment i guess yeah this is just how charming p j fleck is all right he probably convinced minnesota that like this is what they needed they wanted to do to be great all right it's all about commitment here shared values contract extensions for possibly stupid amounts of time. It's about belief in this program. A contract is something you sign and I sign.

We're both making a decision here. It's a partnership that you pay me for, that I get this money. But you pay it. It's a two-way street, and all the money flows one way, and all the love flows the other way. and all the all the all the winds over nebraska also flow my way the winds are the winds are parallel parked right now all right but they're safe we're gonna get them out just gotta back them out a little bit it's tough they're in there tight it's all about three points i have a graph i'd like to present oh jesus nothing like nothing like graphs on a podcast it's about 3.9 million not three points Fine. I would also like to point a couple of extremely spiteful ones that you should not watch,

but you should point and laugh at later, right? I'm telling you to take 30 seconds every day and point and laugh at the following games. One, let me tell you what, Jeff Collins, the man, the originator of the can of swag, one of the hype is coaches in college football. He's got Temple at five. He's got to give him to six, and he has to do him against the Tulsa Golden Hurricane. Oh, there's going to be blood on the immaculate stone steps of Tulsa's gorgeous football stadium because a Tulsa team that's

two and nine. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Our president had a tough year. Chad president, quarterback of the Tulsa. The only president I really recognize. Chad president. Also, the only president who had a tough year. All the other all the others are doing great.

Tired of all this winning, Chad president. Temple Temple is going to get a bowl game. They're going to do it there in green country. In the heart of green country. Just down the road from the Royal Roberts University. elevation coming in the form of facing a bad Tulsa team temple you get into a bowl game probably so advanced congratulations for that for former florida defensive coordinator jeff collins

miss you so much um can we note that uh baker mayfield will face harsh justice i'm sorry do you mean the masturbator the master baker the man who's out with a pulled groin for um for the i don't know first play first drive first quarter against west virginia who knows we'll see It depends on how well, oh, their other five-star quarterback is doing in that game. I mean, if Kyler Murray comes out, there's 28 points in the first quarter, just, Baker, you just want to run some, you know, light jogging on the sideline? Why not? How many West Virginia fans are just going to grab their dicks, like, when he comes out, right? I mean, that's not, that you haven't changed anything.

That would have been the true either way. I think my favorite part about that is the game is in Norman, so they're just doing it at home. which is also on mine. Grabbing your dick is just how you make the sign of the cross in Morgan Town, so it's fine. Because you know, they'll show the student section, right? And they'll be like the remorseful, penitent, newly matured, Baker Mayfield. And there's going to be like 300 Oklahoma students that they catch for one second, just going like, Ha-ha-ha.

Also, so like, is the band playing crank that? So, West Virginia in this game with Will Greer is hurt, his finger got tore off while diving for a touchback, which was really stupid. But not a dumb decision, just a really stupid way for such a good player to be hurt. This game, West Virginia has, like, almost no chance. So if you're Hoagot, why not just, you know. All right, boys, all we got to do is miss that guy off. As soon as he comes in the game, grab his ass, flick his ear. That's it.

Just here. Get a big mouth full of water. Don't know. I think as a show of Team Unity, all the Oklahoma players should come out with sort of like a clear panel on the crotch. Just to say, we stand with our captain. We believe in him. Here are our crotches as well.

We will not be body shamed college football. All hands on laps. This is my weird sweaty penis, and I'm proud of it. God, two full gas in a rowworm talking about dicks. I promise Jason this wouldn't happen. I'm sorry, I failed you. You know what? I'm sitting out the West Virginia game.

That's what I'm doing. All the sooner sooners are out. First drive. First drive. All Oklahoma fans stand with their hands on their dicks for the first drive. That's the deal. Can you do that, y'all, if you're in the stadium, can you do that until Baker returns? I was going to say Barry Switzer would be all for that.

It'd be fine. What are you going to tell? We did that back in 83. We kicked the shit out of Miami. They look over at Barry. He's got his hand on his dick. Oh, I see you're standing in solidarity with Baker. With who?

How are, wait, you're clapping. Yeah, I got the third one grafted on. It's worth it. In other games of infinite spite, there are a couple of minor. Michigan State Rutgers. No, sorry. I was going to sail right past that thing. Wait, wait, wait, wait.

I do have a point here. So, um, When Ohio State is cruising toward a playoff or contention at very least, what's the team that always knocks the Buckeyes right out? Michigan State. They failed to do that this year so far. How about Michigan State, you're one of Ohio State's best wins, how about you go get blown out by Rutgers?

And then the committee says, ah, well, when we decided to drop Michigan State out of the top 25 and into a new top 25 of bad teams that deflated Ohio State's record, and now Ohio State is number 13. So, Spartans, you can still do this. I'm liking it. I enjoy this. I wanted to point out that... What sucks is that that still wouldn't help Michigan finish in the top three of the division.

See, it's perfect. You can have everything you want. God damn. You can get in front of Harbaugh, and you can fuck Urban Meyer over. Hey, that's... listen let's let's aside real quickly here i love these rumors about jim harbaugh getting a lifetime contract i love it because what's the only what's the only other place in america where we have a lifetime contract the supreme court the supreme court of the united states

very well done who loves judges more than anybody in college football Jim Harbaugh who will absolutely coach well into senility and dementia Jim Harbaugh already has that was part of the pitch wasn't it they're like yeah who do you love judge Judy who can we turn you into literally judge Judy coach judge Judy do you think he won't start wearing judicial robes on the sidelines with khakis you absolutely he will Jim Harba if you give Jim Harbaugh this contract And I'm not saying it's real because I don't actually want to look into it. But I promise you, he will stay until he dies.

He will take lifetime so literally that he will not walk away. He will not leave for another job. He will not step down because the game has passed by. He will be wheeled out there, strapped to a fucking gurney, coaching the game still. I want to point out the saddest game on the schedule. on Saturday and I mean saddest because we could actually set records

yeah that'd be the battle for who is truly the SEC least oh yeah because we make fun of Arkansas oh yeah man Arkansas they've had a rough year Brett Bielman was just not working out man them hogs they got sent to the slaughterhouse early

yeah they got a conference win you know who don't you know who has someone has to get a conference win someone when Tennessee plays Vanderbilt neither team has a conference win in the year 2017 and do you know

if Tennessee does not get it as cited several times this week but let's say it again Tennessee will finish without a an SEC conference win for the first time ever ever so let's do this

let's do this doors and balls because man balls you just do it big don't don't half-ass this but like let's Like Auburn, put both cheeks on the line here. Okay? If you're going to bring the butt, bring the whole thing.

And this game, oh, God, this game is in New Zealand. Yeah, yeah. It's in New Zealand Stadium. You know who's going to be there? Haders. Just a sea of angry, hating-ass people who are cold. Probably didn't bring the right poncho. Yeah.

This is the first home game. I think Tennessee, or wait, no, Tennessee was home last week, right? Mm-hmm. If you're going to this game, I want you to tweet Spencer and Spencer only and tell him why. Just why? Just sort of what your motivation here, if you want to reveal something dark and evil about yourself, that's fine. We won't call the cops. If you are doing it out of obligation to a loved one, if you lost a bet.

All of these are, you know, I don't really, I'm not going to judge you until I hear why. I really need to know why anybody would go to this Vanderbilt Tennessee game. Yeah. Where the only thing on the line is not, it's sort of the opposite of the Highlander. It's imagined that there is a separate sort of inverse Highlander situation where you have all these dudes who don't know even how to spell sword and they have to fight and they have to fight until one remains and he is the saddest of them all. let me give you

the chippiest game all right we said that I said chippy I didn't say a brawl Ole Miss Miss State it's going to be a tussle but the chippiest game

of the weekend and certainly with the Saturday Clemson at South Carolina not what not Georgia Georgia Tech really but those people don't like to fight They ruined our hedges spancer Yeah that's that game they fight before and after

they do a lot of yapping before and then they do some horticulture after whereas Clemson, South Carolina they just fight. Yeah, like remember. Spencer, Georgia Tech intentionally clogged my gutters. I saw them do it. You know what I'm going to do?

I'm going to make a complaint to the HOA. That's George. You know, that's it. I've had it. I'm kicking Rand Paul's ass. This is over. Only took me 16 years of simmering to get up to boiling. Kind of like the Georgia Tech offense.

But I would go ahead and point to this because this is the game where, remember, first of all, where is it this year? Oh, look at that. It's at South Carolina. It's in the cockpit, brother. It's in the cockpit, brother. And you know what happens in the cockpit? More fighting and ejections than in any other stadium in the SEC. Oh, wouldn't that be LSU?

Or wouldn't that be Arkansas? No, son. No, hell no. stadium that consistently ejects the most people and has the most arrest and is the fightinist, rootness, teutinous, rowlingist, just, just, you know, chicken fight of the century every single weekend, that's South Carolina. And guess he's coming to town? Clemson, guess who still got playoff ambitions?

Clemson, guess who probably will still win this game? Clemson, because they're much more talented, but I will tell you this. South Carolina, they'll, they're going brawl. Now, I don't think anybody's getting kicked in the head this game, because remember, that's the great legacy of this rivalry is what do you remember about Clemson, South Carolina? I'm like, oh, I remember that time they both missed a bowl game because they had a brawl so bad the state

troopers had to come out and break it out between men who were wearing helmets and playing football. But there's going to be a, it'll be chippy. Be some tussling and some fighting. Yeah, hell yeah. There is a real chance that South Carolina

could win 10 games this year. I mean, I don't think, I'm not saying they're going to beat Clemson, but if they do and they win the bowl game, Will Mustchamp will have done what only two other South Carolina coaches ever have achieved in his second year. And yes, this makes me feel very bad as a Florida fan. Thank you for asking. I have wondered about that. How bad I feel about the fact that Wilmuchamp seems to be doing very well at South Carolina

and building a program that has a consistent vision, a consistent staff, and seems to have like mostly good feelings all around that looks competitive against teams that are better than it and doesn't usually lose games against teams that are clearly worse. How do I feel about that? Yeah, all that stuff. Mixed. Yeah, I'd say mixed.

There's some mixed emotions there. I will also go ahead and just forecast forward that no matter who Florida hires, be it Chip Kelly or say Scott Frost, right? Some new look, extremely aggressive offensive coach. I want to go ahead and call in advance that that brilliant coach will stub their toe every other year

against South Carolina on South Carolina's crow magnin ass That's how that's good Like it's going to be like Offense of the future And it's going to run into Rock Yeah Basically that's a chess game where

Will Mustamp's first move is to vomit on the board Now what? Try to castle over those churs don'ts, brother. Well, what we were going to do is we're going to run an inside zone. Shit. Damn it.

Just puking Will Must champ, ruining the, for my first course, what I have here is an aerosolized, oh, God. I took the fog raw and I That's your heirloom, tomato. Oh, here comes a little hearties. that's it

So that's I mean That's that's the blueprint here too Throw up all over clubs And see if that just makes them throw up too Are you are we comparing Will Mustchamp to some sort of seed cucumber That just ejects its guts right Yes

I got no other defense Yes it's why he would It's why he's the real best match for TCU Ideally I you know what though Like, I love it. Like, we were so bad to Will and he was so bad to us and it was such a bad deal. And then, uh, anybody tried real hard.

And now he's at a place where, you know, he could try hard and win somewhere between, I don't know, five and, and eight games on average and you show me in the MMA rulebook where Pukin's illegal. You can't. Actually, it is. That seems to remember that clip? Uh, ha, ha, he put the ring and the other guy like won by default and he instantly shot his arms up at triumph. Even though the other guy was just fat and poorly conditioned. That's going to be the matchup. But we're not calling this fight.

Chip, that'll be it. Chip Kelly will come to Florida. He'll score 48 points on everybody. He'll actually beat Alabama for once in the championship game. And there'll be one loss in the record. You'll look back. You know what the score is going to be?

The score is going to be 19 to 12. God, he ate so much grilled cheese that day. What's wrong with you, Will? It's like he threw up. Spackle. It'll be 19 to 12 and those won't be field goals for Florida, right?

It'd be like, Chip tried to go for two on a field goal. Can you even do that? It was confusing. So much stress. It's so gross. I just wanted to get out of there. It's so hot.

It's just baking on the field. Get some soft. sawdust there was sawdust in the vomit it's already there the field is so slippery we can't run our routes we love you south carolina go go do some go do something stupid and spectacular that's what we're in our own weird way we do um and then i don't know is it apple cup time oh it is apple cup yeah yeah yeah let's get the apple cup going so let me let me make sure i have my order of selection right here if wazoo wins then are the pack 12 north champion correct correct and if Washington wins

Stanford is the pack 12 north champion I'm correct there as well so so we could have a pack 12 north representative that lost by 34 points to Cal and by 21 points to Arizona or we could have this Stanford team that if you'll recall lost to San Diego State, not a bad team, and got pantsed by USC and might lose to Notre Dame as well. We could have an eight and four Pac-12 North champion. This is a very bad year for the Pac-12 to start playing the, why doesn't anybody respect us?

What aren't our games on? I think we deserve more attention. Like, the minute they played that card, and it's not their fault, it all turned to shit. The minute Washington was like, we're tired of being disrespected. It was like, well, I got bad news. You're going to prove us very right here, very shortly.

The Pac-12 championship game is potentially going to be two unranked teams. Since that whole thing, if they lose, if they lose the Washington State, there'll be three and four since then. Jesus. Oh, wait, three and three, sorry. Which I don't know. Like, you know, you watch Jake Bentley, like, running for his life at the quarterback spot you think you think get hercules after him

is going to change that basic dynamic of kind of how washington is gone because washington's still like a year big browning i'm sorry i thought still stuck on south carolina why are we talking about anything else i still want to talk about puke it's working well must ham's got you man will must yet won the pack 12 nor I don't even know where that is, but I'm happy to be the winner of it. Chip Kelly goes to Hawaii for vacation. They're like, look, a beautiful waterfall. And all I can see is Will Must Champ's head at the top of it going to br-

My favorite possible outcome is Washington State wins the Pact 12 North. Fuck it. Wins the Pact 12 outright. And then Mike Leach takes the Tennessee job. Like, just be like, well, we accomplished everything we did here. I'm over to tackle this. this garbage pit here over here gonna see what we can do

or like Frank Wilson takes a big job and Leach leaves the Pact 12 champ for UTSA That's brutal I like the city of San Antonio They've got a lot of history there People always talk about the Alamo But how about these 19 other things huh? Oh my God

So this means we're definitely going to get a Mike Leach Greg Popovich podcast Wow that would like shut down all of sports media that's like all any worker would do there's a lot the government won't tell you about mind control but we will here just get leach casually dropping you know democracy might have run its course that's just going silent for five minutes yeah I don't by the way I think Washington State could actually completely win this game they really sure yeah no I don't think it's are I don't think it's are Are they better than Arizona State? In that case, they could. It's true. On the other hand, is Washington better than Cal?

See? You never know what you're going to get in the Apple Cup. There are a lot of layers here. Everyone can lose. This is, by the way, perfect Apple Cup weather. I was like, hmm, once the crappiest possible combination for things, you know, like about 40 and rainy. Correct.

Correct. It's going to be. going to be about 40 and rainy when this whole thing goes down. So perfect, perfect. If we can just get like a driving 20 mile an hour wind between two teams that, you know, aren't afraid to pass the ball, even better. If a boat can blow on the field somehow, like a small catamaran or something. And they're just like, oh, play through.

Sorry. Yeah, that boat wouldn't have to fly far to make it onto the field.
