Welcome to the shutdown forecast, our second edition of the 2015 season, which started the minute we started the shutdown fullcast 2015 podcast season.
So remember, college football has already started. Congratulations.
Even though we are formally past the solstice, we are formally past the halfway mark, which we passed this past week between football and no football.
So on the downslope towards college football's beginnings,
I am Spencer Hall editorial director of SBNation.com
and founder, Every Day, should be Saturday.com,
joining me from beautiful Brooklyn, New York City.
That's me.
This is Ryan Nami.
On the downslope, by the way,
it would be a really good name for, like, an album by the Wallflowers.
Yeah, but that implies, like,
If there's a good name for an album by the Wallflowers,
that implies that there is a good album by the Wallflowers.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Just name, just name.
Also, the Wallflowers are Dylan's best work.
Ooh.
Man, Faisleying down the napalm in the first two and a half minutes, but you're right.
Piphon right there.
But you're right, Bob Dylan is trash.
I don't know who that is.
It's absolute garbage.
Basura.
He's like John Popper, but he can't sing.
I mean, he's got some good album titles.
He's got great album titles.
And, man, he really does a great hobo imitation.
No, that's also John Popper that you're thinking of.
Oh, man.
Harmonica Belt.
John Popper, that's a hobo who finds his food.
He takes the milk and honey route every time.
King Hobo.
King of all hobos, John Popper.
Guys, I broke into the cheese rail car.
again
Listen, they just let him in out of respect
That's great
We went off the rails on a John Popper
Bob Dylan sucks tangent
And ended up with him eating a pile of cheese
In the first three minutes of the podcast
Joining us from Kennesaw, Georgia
Kennesaw is your proper address, correct?
Yes, sir
Yeah, that'd be Jason Kirk,
College Football Editor at SB Nation.
What's that happening?
Tonight.
we have a lot to discuss
first of all
that's not true
no it really is
we have an unusual amount of material
like three things happen this week
all right
let's burn through them
as quickly as possible
55 minutes
blazing
55 minutes to cover three topics
we have to discuss
Bobby Bowden
who
did have some things to say
about James Winston
he said
things about James Winston before.
And I should make it clear that Bobby Bowden, I believe he coached Florida State at one point, correct?
Was he like...
You're talking about the former West Virginia coach, right?
Yeah, I mean, I don't know he coached there.
This is one of...
I think he was one of Jeff's cousins, assistants, something?
Maybe.
I mean, Jeff was running the team, let's be honest.
He's a part of the Terry Bowden tree.
Oh, absolutely.
Yeah, see.
relation to uh in relation to let's see there's jeff there's terry and i think that's all the bowdens
don't think there's another one uh brandzino branzino bowden brandzino bowden yeah man i love the
source so good gave himself five mics if you followed that all the way down the wormhole
that's about a three to four five star reference there so i'm sorry i should stop talking this
week i'm ruining everything pretty quickly
I appreciate that, though.
You're just, you're the, you are the corrupt builder who takes state money to put five off-ramps on every single highway of meaning.
And I appreciate that.
But the exact quote, we should say this, this was on the Paul Feinbaum show.
And yes, Paul Feinbaum is going to phrase things the way he would like to phrase them generally to make them as inflammatory as possible.
But, and I quote, Paul Feinbaum.
I'm going to attempt to do
a Paul Feinbaum here
I'm going to try
James Winston
many people thought he was an embarrassment
to your great university
of Florida State
he won the He
Heisman
Won a national championship
He was the number one player
Chosen in the NFL draft
But controversy never seemed to leave him
I can't do this anymore
I feel like you're doing like Ben Franklin
Yeah it was very
It was veering a little bit like, I own this factory.
You get out of here.
I think you have to sort of, like, it's about the mouth shape.
You have to sort of make a mouth shape like you're like a sneering, like, duck or something.
Included on the day, he was.
No, it's not in my soul.
Get like Heath Ledger Dark Knight with it.
It was sitting there in Bessemer, Alabama.
No.
That's much closer.
I just start doing Tom Waits.
What are your?
thoughts on
James Winston.
Man, Paul Klanbaum is so
damn good at his job.
Because he sets up this whole
thing, a bunch of like
sort of like either insensitive
or quasi-racist Alabama fans listening,
right? And he
asked Bobby Bowden, what are your thoughts on
James Winston? He's so good at
his job. There is no way this
question can go wrong.
So,
So this is what Bowden said.
And I'll read it in what is actually Bobby Bowden's voice.
I think it's a consensus among Florida State fans and boosters that he was an embarrassing.
And a lot of ways to the university, I'll say, I say.
He won a lot of ball games, probably one of the best football players that ever attended Florida State.
But he hurt himself on the field.
The good news is that he's young enough to get over that.
You know it?
And he's got to do that.
But he just can't make these junior high decisions that he made.
While he was in college, go-ho, go-ho, go-ho, go-ho.
Wow.
Yeah, that was pretty good.
Wow.
Thanks for joining us, Coach.
Please go.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
Go home now, Coach.
I have to go find a lovely hen to spend the winter with.
I have failed to make plans for my job.
Yet again, a gentleman is out of doors in the most inclement of conditions.
Good Lord.
Yeah.
So, so Paul.
find a problem asking a question that can't go wrong you can't go wrong asking some old jerk
a question about james winson and you know what and you know what fs u twitter they had them knives
ready it was a good day oh man they got to carving like that they're to carving two directions
man yeah fsu twitter is like a velociraptor because you are alive when they start to eat you
it was not only did you have immediately like shut up bobby dang it bobby
why'd bobby run his mouth again you had that you know like someone put a blanket over bobby so
he can't see he'll fall asleep you had that and then you also have like a parrot bobby doesn't have
object permanence it's bedtime bobby you put the blanket over bobby's cage and it's my god everything
just there give me a bell it's a great tribulation
You had that, and then seconds later you had,
oh, Bobby was misquoted.
Sure he's an ass, but Paul Feinbaum twisted his words.
And, like, nah.
Like, the tweet that went out was an exact quote.
No, now here.
And, like, sure, he could have added, you know,
the good news is, blah, blah, blah,
but it's not an unfair quote.
The tweet that Paul Feinbaum intern or whatever sent out,
it pretty accurately captured the statement.
So I have a hypothetical.
Is FSU Twitter so adept and prepared and skilled at defending James Winston that if James Winston said something bad about himself, they would attack him for it?
Could FSU God himself create a media bias so praise of FSU that FSU Twitter would not be outraged?
I know how it ends, and you know what it is?
It's going to end with an insult to Miami.
That's how this ends.
I don't know how, but it's somehow going to end with a slam of the Miami Hurricanes football program.
Yeah, that's sort of the peaceful conclusion to any conflict.
Right.
That's how it runs downhill and finally disappears.
When you divide by zero, it might destroy the universe,
but eventually it runs out of material, and the net result is Al Golden sucks.
Gator blocking gaiter.
Next that you know, Tim Brewster,
There's nude on your front lawn talking shit about the you.
Again.
Again.
That man's a tenacious recruiter.
He just takes off his clothes.
Honey, call the Homeowners Association.
We've got to do something about this.
You're not going to get anything objective when it comes to Bowden.
I've never liked him.
My mom met him and thought he was like the most sexist pig she'd ever met in her life.
And my mom is not the sort of person who's particularly sensitive about it.
those things at all, but thought Bowden was just a sexist pig.
So you're not going to get anything fair for me out of it.
The trick he pulled here is the oldest church biddy, old southern, like, bullshit ever.
And it's this.
It's when he says, by the way, as somebody who still gets paid $250,000 a year to raise money for Florida State, still, he manages to sandwich this in.
it's the consensus among Florida State fans and boosters that he was an embarrassment in a lot of ways
some people say he's an embarrassment yeah did I say that no well not I did months ago basically
but everyone forgot about that yeah no this is this is this is this is the most cheap like second
hand underhanded crap ever for him to say that I decline
My cousins saw James Winston not returning a shopping card at Target.
FSU fans and boosters declare, one don't declare.
One might assume, in Paris, a gentleman would naturally assume this.
Like, yeah, that's, that's yet.
It from me to imply, however.
However.
However.
That's getting into like the Auburn accent.
Yeah, you don't, yeah, exactly.
You're, you're, you're, you're edging over into Vince Dooley territory right there.
Oh, Mr. Dooley would never pull such a, such a stunt.
Oh, oh, listen, Vince Dooley's got church bitty tricks that says, scurrilous.
It's just the most, like, Vince Dooley would probably, like, raise an eyebrow, and you'd go, what a cutting remark.
My God.
That's a whole Dooley family trait right there.
Except, except for Mama Dooley, who, Barbara Dooley,
maybe the most quotable person in SEC history.
But I digress.
This is a conversation that I, once I entered this conversation, I wanted no part of any side.
It was a completely unsavory, like, this is a Bobby Bowden versus FSU Twitter versus James Winston.
There's no side you can take here.
Posted by Paul Feinbaum.
This is that thing where you put a bunch of rats in a pit and they all slowly eat each other.
And then Jimbo takes the last one standing, and he gets him drafted 8th the next year.
Damn it, Bengals, why'd you take Giant Rat from Florida State?
Well, their offense is really hard.
Yeah, he plays it in a possibly complex offense that doesn't run the ball ever.
So I guess we have to take him.
It's pro-style.
They got to play acid Tetris, not normal Tetris at Florida State.
So those guys are real smart.
Jimbo's running Dr. Mario, while everyone else is just running basic Tetris.
Yeah, it's, man, there are so many unnecessary challenges added to that offense.
That's my favorite thing.
I don't have a side FSU, the Winston Marriota debate that went on for like the 18 months or so between the season.
It's not over.
I'm just referring to the span between the season and the draft, the three or four years, however long that was.
Yeah, it was three.
The thing that comes up is, oh, sure, James threw a lot of picks.
That's because he plays in such a hard offense.
You know, at some point, why not switch to an easy offense?
I'm just an idiot.
I don't know anything, but I just think, why not switch to an easier offense?
Yeah, dirt cutter of the bucks saying this about James coming into their system.
Well, Jimbo installs more than we do.
And the Buffalo Bill said the same thing about E.J. Manuel.
That should not make you feel great if you're a Bucks fan.
Be like, wait, hold on.
We're doing what?
y'all got a college style offense i got i got the bucks winning the ac c coastal this year yeah that's as good a pick as any in my opinion
i think we've more than exhausted any possible discussion any comfortable discussion we want to have
i'll just enter a room with paul fine bomb james winston fissue twitter and bobby bowden
and just go to a different party for for instance
It occurred to me this week that none of us really know who's starting anywhere because...
I hate that you came up with this game. It's so rude.
It's a very rude. This is an extraordinarily rude game.
Well, we don't know why because Bill C hasn't written about these teams yet.
Yeah, I'm not expected to know anything until Bill C writes about them.
And then I will pass it off on local radio as if I came up with it.
that's really the reason
that Bill C is employed where he is
is so that we can read all of his previews
and just regurgitate them
that's it
I hope one year he holds us hostage
he's like hey motherfuckers
I need $2 million
or you're all going to sound like idiots
when you do Louisville radio
can I talk you down to a $2,000
raise yes maybe
correct
the
The question I have for you is this.
None of us, we're going to do this an equal turn.
But to give you an idea of how little we actually know going into the preseason,
a naked exposure of our ignorance is well overdue, and I think fitting,
just so everyone will feel better.
Because I have in front of me the starting quarterbacks for each team in the
Southeastern Conference.
Jason Kirk
You have the starting quarterbacks
Or projected starting quarterbacks
For the Big 12, correct?
Yes, sir
Okay
And for some reason
Because he's stupid
Because I'm stupid
So stupid
So very stupid
Ryan Nanny
Has the starting quarterbacks
For the Atlantic
Goes off
ACC
Oh you're for the ACC
I have ACC bias.
Okay, so you and seven other people have ACC bias,
and we will save them for last because I believe they are the funniest.
All right.
So let's go through.
I know the answers.
You two gentlemen, being of honor, have not looked in order to look better than you are.
We're going to go through every single team,
and you are going to tell me who the starting quarterback is.
I'll start you off easy.
the SEC West, Mississippi State.
Jack Prescott.
Correct, Jason Kirk.
Are you keeping score?
Because I intend to win.
No, no.
Okay.
Can someone out there please keep score?
Please keep score for Jason.
Let us know how we do.
Please rewind.
Start over.
So 15 hours later, Jason Kirk will be able to claim a meaningless victory, please.
There's no meaningless victory.
Remember those titans.
not the Tennessee ones
no no because that involves victory
well no one has ever
remembering requires four knowledge
no one's ever heard of them to be kidding
oh man I think
I think you mean the blue vols
the left
the left balls on Saturday
on Saturday I support my
vols and then on Sunday
I support the balls over to the left
The Sunday Nash Valls.
But yeah, you know what?
I call them the Sunset Valls.
The Valls Legends League team.
The Shitty Ball.
I support the shitty balls.
The old Valls home.
All right, so that's one quarterback we have.
We've made real progress.
Great, okay.
Number two, we're bouncing to the east.
Tennessee.
Josh Dobbs.
Damn it.
Correct, correct. Josh Dobbs, aka Space Dobbs.
Space Dobbs.
Yeah. So that's it. We were two for two collectively.
That's two for Jason Kirk.
Oh, we're working together. Okay. That's fine. It's unclear.
No, we can pool our points. That's totally fine. I'm a team player.
Three, staying in the SEC East.
Starting quarterback from Missouri.
Maddie Mock.
Yep.
Oh, man, one for Ryan Nandy. That is correct.
Hooray, I contributed.
Maddie Mock, who, by the way, threw 25 TDs last season and 13 interceptions.
And was also, like, through below 60%, which given as horizontal as that passing game can be.
Not particularly impressive.
Doesn't matter, Missouri's probably going to win 10 games anyway.
They just do.
Over in the West, let's go to Arkansas.
Brandon Allen.
Yep.
There you go.
That is correct.
Brandon Allen, hopefully, a much improved Brandon Allen to take the field.
Because if he's good, Arkansas is going to whip some ass.
Just straight up.
All hog for 2015.
Great ass.
You're grace.
Brandon Allen, he's got a great ass.
Remember, if you're going to be in Arkansas, you have to have a great ass.
Per Brett Bilema, not us.
Five.
Let's see, we're looking in the West.
the starter, projected starter
for the Auburn Tigers.
Something Johnson.
Jeremy Johnson? Josh Johnson.
There you go.
It's not, yeah, that's something Johnson.
Oh, something Johnson.
Jeremiah Johnson.
It's going to be really hard not to call him that, isn't it?
Jonas Johnson.
Robert Redford is Auburn's starting quarterback.
An amazing performance.
Isn't that what they had for like a decade before Gus came back?
That sounds right.
Like, he could have worked.
Yeah, he could have, he could have Robert Redford?
Hey, listen.
You would barely even notice.
Was he, was he any worse than Chris Todd?
Heesh.
She got real.
Six, bouncing back to the east.
We're pretty good so far.
And I really like this dude, actually.
Kentucky, Kentucky's projected starter.
Patrick Tolls.
Correct, correct.
Who I thought was like, maybe this is my, like, Kentucky,
my Kentucky bias showing
and my Kentucky bias being
wow they have a competent quarterback
Wow they're going to beat Florida
They probably should have so
Yeah they should yeah should
Should have would have buddy
That's right
Hey y'all you celebrate that streak man
Hang on to that one
That's a big deal
Wait listen we will take what we can't get a lot
Family heirlooms
That's Kentucky
Family airlines don't have to be valuable
conference program.
Hey, listen, 38 and 1 last year.
That's all you need to know about Kentucky.
Oh, and 1 against Florida, am I right?
That is literally all you need to know about Kentucky.
Do the math.
Do the math.
Let's see, which is a really fun thing to say when Florida and Kentucky fans are arguing, right?
Y'all do the math.
No, y'all do the math.
No, y'all do it.
You don't understand.
We went to Kentucky and Florida because we don't do the math.
Can we get a Vandy fan?
in here to do the math.
Does it involve fraud?
Then we can't do that math.
It's just not done.
So thus far,
I think we're doing pretty well.
It's about to get a little bit shakier as we go down the list.
Okay?
Not quite yet.
You got another couple of easy streets.
Jason,
how many more do you think you got in you?
Because I think I only got two.
Maybe three.
Yeah, well, if we each have two or three,
we'll be pretty much done.
All right.
All right.
Hit us, Spencer.
Yeah, man.
It's about to get real hard.
Not yet, though. Number seven, SEC West, going to the University of Alabama Crimson Tide.
Well, it could be Jake Coker.
I was going to say, Jacob Coker?
Could be Everett Goulson.
Yeah, I mean, that's our default answer.
All right.
Oh, we should have just said Everett Goalson for all these.
Everett Goulson's the answer for all of them.
We win.
Slick, nice.
Count it.
Next, on the ACC.
There you go.
Okay.
So I will give you double credit for Jake Coker and or Everett Goulson.
You can't just answer Evergolson for Evergolson for Evaldon.
You've exhausted the answer.
Everdoulson ticket.
Oh, shit.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, that's right.
We're taking him his game over.
All right.
Staying in the SEC West, Texas A&M.
Do you know the starting quarterback for Texas A&M?
Well, it's a little up in the air, isn't it?
Kyle Allen.
There you go.
That's our projected.
The entrenched starter, but they also got a five-star coming in.
I'm not sure if he's officially locked down the job.
No, no, he is not.
That is clear.
But our projected starter that we will give you credit for knowing is Kyle Allen.
So, Jason Kirk on a rampage here.
Just killing it.
If you get this one, I'm actually going to feel bad for you.
Number nine, going to the SEC East, way, way down in the SEC East.
Who's the starting quarterback for Vanderbilt?
No idea.
I have no idea.
I think Philip Rivers' brother was there but left?
I like that you both immediately surrendered.
Well, it's a Commodore.
Pat and Robinette.
You know, Pat and Robinette, he was the opening day starter last year.
However, the projected starter, projected starter for the moment, is Johnny McCrary.
Okay, that's a new name.
Sure.
Wouldn't have even known that was a helpful player.
You could have thrown out any name at all.
I will give you another name, too, which I guarantee you, is one of those guys who, you know, will win a bar bet in like maybe eight years,
if people in bars remember who you is, but who they won't.
2014 potential starter for Vanderbilt.
Wade Freebeck.
You know what?
Vanderbilt quarterback or character on Nashville would be a hard fucking game.
That's Wade Freebeck.
He wrote Hits for Reba back in the day.
Okay, so we missed Vanderbilt, and that's really nobody's fault, but Bandies.
Number 10, going back to the SEC West, replacing a legend.
Who's going to be starting for the old Miss Rebels?
Chad Kellyn.
Chad.
Okay.
He could.
Likely.
Dude, dude, he's got a gun.
What?
You're going to tell him he's not?
You're going to tell him he's not starting?
He'll spray down this whole motherfucker.
He said it.
You want to talk about entrenched.
Motherfucker is literally entrenched.
Entrenched in a damn bunker on the beach.
The beaches of Oxford.
And because he's a white dude in Mississippi, it'll be like, oh, he's just defending his civil liberties.
He just loves his family.
He just loves his family and his homestead.
His homestead, it's that football field.
We respect what he's doing.
We're going to get dudes out on the horseback with AR-15s.
Are you there when Chad Kelly played the national anthem on his AK-47 before the Egg Bowl?
It was magical.
Yeah, it's on SoundCloud.
Go check it out.
It's amazing.
You know, the projected starter, I am looking off of a Cheaton list provided to me by the internet.
Ryan Buchanan, Devonte Kincaid, fighting it out there.
But Chad Kelly, I know we want Chad Kelly, so I'm going to give you credit for that.
Thank you.
I mean, those other guys, they're not Chad Kelly.
They're not Chan Kelly, and they won't play the national anthem on AK-47.
Ooh, okay.
It's scary how plausible that scenario is.
He won the last season of Idol.
It's kind of terrifying.
Number 11.
Oh, man.
You know, this caught me by surprise because I thought I'd know it.
I did not.
Full disclosure before looking at it.
I did not know this one.
I did not know this one.
I did not know of Andy.
Number 11.
The University of Georgia.
Oh, no, no idea.
Well, is it Jacob Park?
is that the guy
Chris Chamler
I will give you credit
for knowing someone on the depth chart
because he is on the depth chart
Jacob Park is on the depth chart
In my defense we are not going to need to know
the name of Georgia's quarterback they have Nick Chubb
and like 18 other guys who look like Nick Chub
and they bring back four offensive linements
so I mean you could put whatever one of those
Vandy quarterbacks you made up back there and they'd be fine
I don't know Brian Schottenheimer's their offensive coordinator
This isn't going anywhere good.
Well, he knows how to run the dang ball, don't he?
Vandy transfer Quentin St. Paul.
I think the UGA is actually going to have a successful quarterback via my rule
that a quarterback's name has to work both forward and backward because their projected starter is Bryce Ramsey.
Oh, yeah.
Ramsey Bryce.
Ramsey Bryce makes just a much more terrifying.
Yes, but Bryce Ramsey, manage more Georgia, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. Now, Jacob Park, I'm not favoring him as much because Park Jacob is, you know.
That's more of a kicker's name.
Yeah.
It was a good TV show, though.
The number 12.
Oh, man, Ryan.
Oh, don't do this. Don't do it.
Number 12 in the SEC East, the University of Florida.
I'm assuming it's saying Will Greer.
Correct.
Right, let's just, yeah. All right, great.
We're not going to talk about Florida.
Moving on. We're not going to debate that one.
Moving on.
It's very bad.
The less said, the better.
That's bad.
Number 13.
Who is the starting quarterback for Louisiana State University?
Well, wouldn't we all like...
Anthony Jennings would probably be listed as the favorite.
It's true.
But I think Jeremiah Massoli's probably still got eligible over the years.
Everett Galson.
This gives...
Now, you did get Anthony Jennings, who was the 2014 starter.
However, the projected starter per A-alt.org.com.
and I don't doubt them on anything.
So just to be clear, you've cited finebom and a.l.com on this podcast tonight.
I've given up.
I'm just waiting for the rest of the world to just join me.
Brandon Harris.
They have Brandon Harris.
Yeah, that guy.
All right.
Who's probably got a bit more upside.
So naturally, having that much upside, let's give them to Cam Cameron.
What can go wrong?
What could go wrong?
Finally, this is the one where...
Now, Everett Golson is from this state.
Can we say him for this one?
No, you've already used your Evergolson coupon.
I am sorry.
The only team we have not mentioned is South Carolina.
So, you can't suggest the coach.
He is out of eligibility.
Yes, even under South Carolina, quote, law, unquote.
He cannot play.
So there are, I will tell you, there are three names and not a clue as to who is going to emerge among them.
So in other words, in other words, Steve Spurr, here's the coach.
It's almost certain one will start, be benched, come back, the third stringer will start randomly without ever having played.
So can we just say all, whoever they are?
Who?
Yeah, I'm going to need you to name one of them.
That's not going to happen.
Seriously, just throw a road flare in this bar.
and see what catches fire.
Just give me a shot.
Now, I will tell you, my test indicates
that Connor Mitch is going to be the start.
Oh, yeah.
Because that Connor Mitch is going to be the starter
because we have Connor Mitch,
who backwards, he's Mitch Connor.
That's the name.
That's a great name.
The other two in competition are Michael Scarnikia.
It doesn't work in reverse.
And Perry Orth.
no orth perry works in like a mountain west kind of way
orth perry works if he's playing for utah state yeah yeah
but not but not here
orth perry orth perry in south carolina is one of two things
he's a punter or he's a racist state representative or he's both
he's a state representative that means orth is short for some like bible
name like orthannual or something
ortho yeah orthodontist
Ortholomew.
Orthogonal.
Serving his 25th term.
So what will we get?
Like 11?
You know what?
I think I'm going to give you credit for 11.
That is really good.
That is really, really good.
And that, of course, went way longer than I thought.
So, Jason, let's run through the Big 12 right fast.
All right, we're going to go real fast.
And we're going to start at the top, all right?

That's, that's, that's...
What a colossal act of the last year.
Baker Mayfield.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, the likely starter.
They've got a few options, but likely.
Let's see here.
Let's do...
How about Kansas State?
Nope.
Not that it matters.
Nope.
Since whoever it is will be fine.
Converted tight end and future tight end.
Yeah, converted whatever future all big 12.
Daryl Gronkowski.
A few names.
that we could have thrown out would be
Joe Hubaner, Jesse Ertz, and Alex
Delton. I like Alex Delton.
I'm a big fan. I'll find it.
I think Hubaner is the most
Big 12. That sounds pretty Texas.
That's definitely the most Kansas State.
The Hubner Ranch.
He's 37 and he's a successful small
businessman. How about Iowa State?
Well, I know that one.
It's Sam B. Richardson.
Yeah, the thing with Iowa State
always just guess Sam Richardson.
I believe they have, still have several
on their roster.
Yeah, they're up to Sam.
This is actually Sam Q Richardson.
Sam Q.
They're, they're, they're,
Sam, Double F. Richardson is where things are really going to turn.
Mark 12.
Sam Richardson, parenthetical Mountain Lion, OSX.
Let's just get all the really depressing ones out of the way first.
Sam Richardson, Age of Ultron.
I'm really impressed right.
You know the Big 12.
I've like blanket on the Big 12.
I really, I think that's it.
No, there's one more I can do.
No, you got another one.
Kansas.
Let's go Kansas.
No.
Nope.
No.
uh michael cummings probably would probably would have been the starter but he was injured while
wearing a no contact jersey in the spring day um so i'm i'm not sure exactly what happened there
i mean it was that laugh is so fucking evil it was it was awful but
oh my god your bedside manner fucking sucks it's in your bones
You need those
All right, let's go Oklahoma State
Oh

I don't know who's left
No, I'm O for the Big 12
That's far
The name is
Mason Rudolph
No, yeah
And Rudolph Mason
He's gonna be awesome
He's a fine big 12 name
Yeah
How about Texas Tech

Wade Davis type

No, I'm gonna pass
Skyler Howard
The one who was

Gerard
Is also in contention
Sure
I'll say you guys got
Like five or six
No, no, no. Yeah, I got one.
Oh, man.
That was a deplorable performance on my part.
You might have been more like four, but, hey, man, it's the big 12.
They'll put up yards. We don't need to know their names.
Y'all ready to run through the ACC?
Fastest family. Hell yeah.
All right. Yeah, let's do this.
I'm just rapid fire.

Michael Brewer, are they going to try to him out again?
It is Michael Brewer.
Michael Brewer?
They're still doing that, huh?
Duke.
Anthony Boone is gone.
So, no clue.
I'm not even going to ask Spencer.
Thomas Cirque is his name.
Yeah, I'm out.
That sounds good.
Syracuse.
That is correct.
Oh, yeah.
Maniacal laughter.
Starting quarterback for Syracuse.
Starting quarterback for Syracuse is Jim Behan can develop talent for the NBA.
com.
Fab Mello.
No, it's Terrell Hunt.
Sure.
Sure, sure it is.
Virginia.
Oh, man.
This is on the, no.
I will tell you, I would wait for 30 minutes,
and in minute 31, I'd remember,
and then I'd waste my entire life.
All right, here's what we're going to do.
I'm not going to announce who Virginia's quarterback is.
The first person to tweet at.
What?
I'm not going to announce Virginia's certain.
No, no, I'm not going to announce.
You've already replaced my question.
I'm not going to answer this question.
The first person to tweet it, the three of us,
the name of Virginia's quarterback,
gets blocked.
Wow.
Yep.
Wake Forest.
Oh, no, no.
Yeah.
I pity the young man, whoever he is.
John Wolford.
And lastly, Boston College.
Is that still another former Gator?
I'm just going to say that's Jacoby Brissette.
I'll just put him at two schools.
It's a really good guess.
It's Darius Wade.
Oh.
But hey, he has eight career passes.
attempts.
That's as many as he's going to have this year.
Yep.
So I will say y'all got, you all got a good seven?
So we went 500 and ACC play.
That's, that's, wow.
We've done things today.
And I'm serious.
First person to tweet Virginia's quarterback at us blocked.
You will carry that honor with you forever.
Okay, deal.
Yeah, because we're not going to unblock you.
I don't want to know that.
I don't need that knowledge in my head.
But you don't know who he is?
No, we don't know.
And we don't really need to know.
It's for our own good.
We don't need to know that.
If he does something, it'll come up on the TV.
They'll put his name.
A little Kiron underneath.
Hopefully they'll spell it right.
They won't.
Won't even see it.
I won't even see it.
I've pre-blocked that knowledge.
They're playing at 12 o'clock on ESPN 5.
So, no.
We're literally not going to see it.
I believe we can actually run through some reader questions right fast.
I will go first.
First is from a new ADSBSBS contributor.
Oh, man, drop that bomb on him.
Peter Berks.
That would be you have a time machine and are forced to live the rest of your life in a different time period, which I chose at first.
the 1990s because
ha ha I already know where
all my stuff is
but I'm going to go ahead
I'm going to take it back
I want to go to the 1890s
because I think this was a very dangerous time to live
and because people didn't know any better
it would have seemed fun
as a kid you would have barely
gone to school you would have been hardly
supervised head injuries would have
seemed routine it would have been
it would have been way way fun
until you turned 30 and died of tuberculosis
but I'm going to go to the 18th
1990s. Just seemed like a wacky sort of, you know, pre-World War I freewheeling kind of, you know, a hobo-friendly time, if you will. So I'm going to go to the 1890s, even though I could die from like step it on a nail. Just so much soot.
Just, you know what? You could just pee anywhere. And you did. Yeah. And you did. Yeah, that's a good. That's a good one. I'm going to go, I'm probably going to go like 1950s.
because I feel like, I feel like nobody looked good or was like, hey, you know, look, we all, we all basically wear the same clothes.
It was sort of like how Legos, when I was a kid, there were only like three kinds of Legos, so you couldn't really, you couldn't really mix it up too much.
And I feel like, you know, you didn't, you didn't have to think about what you were wearing in the 50s.
You're just like, yeah, I'm going to wear this white dress shirt that has short sleeves, and I have the same job as everybody else.
and oh actually you know what i'm thinking of fallout i want to live in fallout fallout
yeah whatever era fallout takes place in i want to live in fallout like all you had to do to really
kind of rebel or stand out in the 50s was say um i'm not i'm not going to wear this hat anymore
um i don't want to wear this hat outside what that's outrageous i just wonder about like
uh like times before before we were born like how did they not sweat
they did they sweat it like fucking mad but it's not on their face they sweat everywhere but
that's why you carried like eight handkerchiefs on oh yeah yeah else's you can duel well yeah
yeah i mean duh exactly also you know you could wear your pants pretty much anywhere in the 50s
you could cinch them up wherever you wanted to in your body there wasn't a waste a waste
existed wherever you said it was you just walked up to the globe and you said there's the equator
no glass ceilings for pants the 50s the 50s also had that like
post-war thing where we were all trying to be peaceful.
So, like, I don't think, I don't think anybody got confrontational.
I don't think anybody stepped to you if you messed with their shit.
They'd be like, oh, man, the neighbor stole our car and be like, well, Donna, let's not,
I don't want to make a fuss.
He probably needed it for good reason.
I don't know, though.
The 50s have a lot of, like, suck.
I will also say that especially because the three people on this podcast are white.
it would have been bad
oh let's go back to the old days hold on
mind you I just said the 1890s
where you could pretty much like
notice by the way
might have been better
I mean it couldn't have been worse
I chose to just I know I think it was worse
I think everything was worse in the 1890s
except this it was a lot easier to change your name
and fake your death
that's
Damn.
Advantage me.
Jason?
Well, I'm still struggling with this one because it sounds like it's not you're starting at this point.
It sounds like you're just living your entire existence within a specific time period.
I'm sort of struggling with the wording here.
I do feel like I wouldn't mind if I'd bump back my birth date about 10 years, started in the 70s.
It sounds fun.
I will tell you, as somebody born in the 70s, oh, it was cool.
like you know there really things things weren't safe at all things weren't safe at all how many years
of the 70s did you get uh i was born in 1976 so i got four good years in the 70s but really like
the 70s lasted until 1983 or so you know you don't really shake off a decade yeah you know
do you know the real advantage of being a 70s baby though right in in modern times is that there
are almost no embarrassing pictures of you like the rest of us have embarrassing pictures of middle
school and high school but you you just don't have them you basically don't exist yeah it's great
i love it i another great thing about the 70s is that your parents ended up kind of listening to
music that maybe people who were raised in the 80s didn't right so they listen to some really like
sleazy stuff on vinyl right like they listen to a lot of music you only listen to if you did drugs
or your friends who did drugs told you what was cool yeah right we listened to a lot of tony
Rexton in my house, so...
Well,
so...
Which is probably why I'm so sexual.
Yeah, that is...
I'm just gonna loop
that quote.
Spencer, what is your ringtone?
You'll be shocked.
It was cool, though, because we got like,
my grandparents, you know, and my parents would let me ride
pretty much anywhere in a car as long as it wasn't
external. Like, I think they
when they were young... Yeah, when they were...
Yeah. When they were...
were young they could ride on the hood and and i couldn't do that but i could ride like they would let me
ride like on the front seat without a seatbelt like in the death seat around until at least the mid 80s
my grandma had a gigantic oldsmobile that i could just roll around in the back of and no one cared
yeah i mean that was that was fairly awesome additionally like you know pretty much anything
that had to do with safety didn't happen to like the mid 80s like remember in the 70s
that's when they just decided as a nation
when we decided
oh, cars probably shouldn't explode
like that was
it took a while for them to get that straight
Yeah have you ever noticed that
Cars uh they explode
I am
I am against cars exploding
I am mixed I have mixed feelings
Yeah I got I got to say
I'm listening to all sides
I got to I got to hear both sides
When it comes to cars explode
So that would be my answer
What is your question, Ryan?
My question comes from Matthew Whitrock.
His question, which matchup next year is most likely to go to overtime, Tide Zero, zero.
Of course, the Wake Virginia Tech classic.
Yeah, I looked at the schedule, and I'm just going to throw us right on the fire.
It's Florida Vanderbilt.
It's Florida Vanderbilt because Florida, you know, going through some changes.
Vanderbilt dealing with some existing change.
And apparently, Florida lost all its talent from last year's juggernaut to the NFL.
So that's your zero-zero game.
And you should not watch it because you'll be a bad person.
I'm sticking with Wake Forest who is not playing Virginia Tech this year.
But right out of the gates, they got the Elon Phoenix coming to town.
It's got zero-zero written all over it.
Man, you've been hating on Elon for way too long.
Hey, man, they're going to hold the deeks to zero.
Elon's going to put up a solid eight points in that game.
an ader?
Eighth-nothing, you're saying?
Yep.
I'm actually going to, I'm going to take this back.
We're going to go.
Way back.
Yeah, way back.
We're going to go to an old-school zero-zero classic.
And that would be going over to the SEC West.
I'm feeling like Alabama, LSU could be zero-zero.
Going into over time.
Always on the table.
And, of course, with both fan bases, you know what, LSU wouldn't be happy about it.
They'll be just apoplectic.
Alabama, they'll be like, you know what?
That's good.
This has set us up real well for overtime.
This is, I like what's going on here.
You know what else is due for zero-zero-over-time matchup?
Iowa-Ira State.
Yeah.
Oh, man.
El-A-A-Cico.
El-Azico!
That's one that always ends like 23 to 19.
Always.
That's a weird score in classic.
It's the prime number's classic.
They always end up with some kind of prime number.
1711.
How did you do that?
I just want to divide by two.
Not on purpose.
System does not recognize two.
You're like, wow, it's the only game that makes a really great password.
It's all prime numbers.
It cannot be hacked.
You can't hack this game and why would you want to?
The unhackable ASICO!
Unhackable ASICO!
On Hackapalasico, brought to you by...
Ah, shit, what's an Iowa...
Goodfoot!
Brought to you by high school wrestling.
Rucking High School Wrestling, the single largest industry in Iowa.
And Carl's Jr. That's just a man and his son.
Ryan?
I already asked my question.
Okay, so Jason.
My question comes to us from Chris Sauer on Twitter, C.L. Sour.
Your team has to go six and six next year, no better or worse.
Which QB coach combo from last five years do you choose?
So I feel like the coach most likely to bring us to exactly 6 and 6 is Randy Edsel.
His career record is 94 and 100, which is pretty darn close.
His bowl's record is 3 and 4.
So far at Maryland is 6 and 6-ish every year.
And even his one glory year at Yukon when they went to the Fiesta Bowl was still only 8 and 5.
and I think if he gets too far above that 500 mark
that's when like nine quarterbacks get injured
and then at quarterback I'm going to BJ Daniels
was at USF for like five years
and they finished basically 500 over those five years
so that's my combo
it's going to be real hard to top that
I would like Rick Newheisel and Gary Nova
ooh that's by coastal action
Two coasts of mediocrity
Damn, that is...
I don't think I need to explain that.
That's the kind of malaise that touches two oceans.
I've poisoned the entire globe.
I mean, damn, that's...
The water supply is ruined.
That's that sharknado of six and six.
Mmm. Okay.
This is difficult, because you've taken a lot of
really good answers off the table.
Not Ron Brants.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I got, I got, I got one for you.
Okay.
And it's going to be John Brantley from Florida.
Yeah, very good.
Yeah.
And my coach is going to be Skip Holtz.
Yeah, see, it really doesn't hit you in the side.
It's not the bat to the side of the kneecap until I give you a skip Holt.
And then you're going, um, it's got.
six and six in a miserable bull game written all over it.
You know what I like about this Skip Holtz, John Brantley combo?
They're starting six and one.
And you're like, hey, I think they got this thing rolling.
I think this thing's rolling.
And then they lose their last five games.
Do worry that Skip Holtz is going to give you a 10 and 2 followed by a 2 and 10.
And you say, oh, that's good enough.
This is not what I ordered.
No, no, it goes 10 and 2.
It goes 7 and 5.
So, like, it's the most painful like, oh, maybe it's just a death.
And then, then year three, the roof, the roof just gave in.
If we're talking like over the course of five years, Skip Holtz is your guy, but one year, like, he's, is it, he's accurate, but not precise.
Is that what it is?
Right.
I think so.
The, the skip holds seven and five is like, I probably don't need to see the doctor about this.
This mole hasn't changed shape.
Skipmoltz.
All right, that's where we cut it.
Just got it right there.
Okay.
