Now is a good time to remember where tequila's story truly began. In 1795, Cuervo invented tequila. Quervo. What are you doing here? Quervo. Anytime someone says quarevo, I show up. Well, I do know that to be true, but even during and reads, like... Quervo.

I think he could lay out, especially from one of our great partners. Sweet, delicious quervo. Since then, Cuervo is stayed true to its roots. The same family, the same land, the same passion. Quervo. So, enjoy the tequila that started it all. Quervo. Cuervo.

The tequila. That invented tequila. Broximo.com. Please drink responsibly. Quervo. This is the Dan Levatore show with the Stucats podcast. This is the Dan Levinard show. Oh, yeah.

Lucy's mine! Hey Dan, it's your favorite Rodin, Lucy's dad. We're here in Iowa, go Hawks. Your favorite employee, Rose, is here, and we're gonna do a handshake. Yeah, we're gonna do a handshake. Look at this, Dan. One, two, three.

Ah! Where we go, we're Hawks. Go Hawks. We are! Fight, fight, fight for Iowa! My name is Steve, like the Minecraft guy. We're at Iowa, Pennick Stadium, iconic. How would you describe the Iowa Game Day experience?

I would say electric. Yes! This is Lucy, everybody's losing! You cannot get any better than this. It's got to be the next thing to heaven, right? Honestly, not so bad. We came out expecting corn, and it looks pretty good from our perspective.

They've just been giving a shit we don't deserve. You know, we're just from Penn State doing our best. The tailgating's good, and the drinking is good. Last time I came here was 10th, right? Because we were both in the top 10. But now it's great. No, we, what do we all have to lose? You know, being an hour fan, though,

it's all about the unexpected. And not too long ago, we were just rushing the field after we beat Penn State, so. That was like five years ago. That was actually a really long time ago. Oh, it's awesome. I love coming down here. I come down here a couple times a year, and I just, I really love it.

It's like a family. It was actually my first Iowa game. I'm a Nebraska fan living in Iowa. Okay. And that for that. We saw the game last night. You probably don't want to speak on camera. Have you seen the corn machine over there?

Pan, pan, pan. Wow. Wow. Wow. That is what America is built on. America needs farmers. Do you ever wish Iowa could score more points? Obviously, but you know, we're just kind of used to it.

You can't have high expectations. It kind of just feels like a tradition to not score that many points. How did you get your tickets for the game today? Oh, the Game Time app. Did you use a code? Code Lucy at checkout. Hell yeah, $20 off your first order, term supply. This high is so sweaty.

I was sweating. Lucy didn't hurt! Woo! Woo! So we are here at the best tailgate in Iowa City. It's called Hawks to Go. What makes, not hot to go, like Chapel Rhone, that's different. They did this before Chapel Rhone.

But what makes this tailgate so special is they sell shots. They do a special one for the opposing team, which this week is Penn State, and then the home team. They'll sell you the shots. You take it on a fun little shot ski. You get the fun tailgating experience, and then all that money goes back to the University of Iowa Children's Hospital. Everything we do here is about for the kids. up for the kids. Thirty-seven years ago, my brother's son, my nephew, had a, no soft spot. He was saved by the University of Iowa hospitals. My brother and I would drink a lot.

And we looked at each other. I think God was involved. And we like, let's do shots for the kids. I sh-h-h-you-not. They've been doing this for over a decade now. They have donated over $400,000 to the Stead Family Children's Hospital, which, like, what is better than getting drunk, watching football, and helping the kids? Winning football is up there. But it's not as good as that. It's like right under it. This is orange juice. Are you ready for these? I am. Me too. Don't lose him. I'm wearing blue on purpose. Unfortunately, I'm a Penn State fan. We're going to see what happens. We're down our head coach. We're down our starting quarterback. All we want is a great game. What was your immediate reaction when you fired James Franklin? Eight years too late.

Should have been fired when he ran Trace McSorley on 4th and 5 at Ohio State. Dumbass. It's about goddamn time. Then fire in their head coach only gives us a better chance to win, so I think it's going to be a good game. Penn State should say coachless and just give up on their football program. Call it and invest all the money in the wrestling. They should defund their wrestling program also. They can invest all their NIL money into Iowa sports is what they should do. So Penn State should just give all their money to Iowa just because it's nice. Yes. Your favorite person on the Levitart Show? Oh, Lucy Rodin. Are you kidding me? I'm required to say it, but it is Lucy. I am going to miss Billy Gill's, so.

We love you, Billy. Probably Lucy's dad. As a Nebraska fan, do you look at Penn State firing James Franklin and be like, oh, no, you can't do that. We've been there before. We've been through a lot of coaches, obviously, but I don't think he's going to be a big deal. Do you think Matt Rule is going to take the Penn State job?

I don't even know if I want him. Yo, give me Joe Brady. We want Young, Hot Sex Appeal. I don't know, Bill Belchek. He might be the move. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I heard he's looking for a job. I guess the guy at Iowa State is pretty good.

Oh, yeah, Matt Campbell, we'd be happy if you took him. How would you describe the last three weeks of Penn State football? Basically, like, the last 30 years of Penn State football. Train wreck, disaster, Armageddon, Hiroshima. Unnatural disaster is the right way to put it. I know I'm a Nebraska fan, but I'm in Iowa today, so go Hawks. And I was so rude to him this whole time, too. I was not nice at all.

It's going to be a great game. Signing off on the Dan Leibonard Show. 2015 will go down in history for the lebitard show this is the first time in the so many times that i have made us go to iowa football games that we have won this has never happened before for us rose has never heard the hawkeye victory polka until today dan this is the best this is why we do it for these beautiful moments where you beat a terrible 10th Penn state team very close and you You keep it feisty, but it's for the entertainment and the joy of a victory. I love this place so much.

I hope you guys got to see why I love it today. Go Hawks, Penn State. Maybe you'll hire somebody cool, you know? Maybe. Like Matt Rule. So cool. Only lost by like 30 to Minnesota. Whatever.

Go Hawks. It is the return of Iowa. Some things are a bit upside down in college football. Vanderbilt is 6 and 1 for the first time. since 1950. They defeated two top 10 teams in the past 12 months. Georgia Tech is 7 and 0 for the first time since 1966. Indiana's got the highest ranking it's ever had, and Lucy is grifting the entire Metal Arc Media by going back and forth to Iowa every couple of weeks and is a bigger star in Iowa than she's ever been. I can't even imagine how much fun it is to tailgate with Iowa

now that she returns home again and again. And this time to great victory and glory. This was the best weekend you've had in a while, correct? We had so much fun. This is always one of our favorite places to go to, and I know that it's selfish that we go, but I always think the content is pretty good, and we actually got some bonus content out of this weekend. Every week that we are on the road,

Rose is begging people to let them throw the football with her, and usually the answer is no, but we got a yes this weekend, and we have footage from that if you all want to see it. Oh, that would be wonderful. Rose, does Rose have a big arm? And did she hit a baby? Oh, my God.

She threw it in a baby's cart, Rose. Oh, for the love of God. Imagine. Imagine someone hits her baby with a football and you turn back and you see Rose's get-up. You're like, is she wearing a helmet? Because she has her headphones forward. You never let her throw that football because she's got bad judgment, correct? No one wants to throw the football with her because she can't be trusted to throw it correctly.

Well, usually it's like 12-year-old boys who are throwing the football. Rose comes up, she's like, can I throw it? And they're very overwhelmed by her. But this time they said yes, and we like were screaming. We were like, Rose, there is a baby there. Please do not hit this baby. Lucy, what I don't understand, and I don't know why I would make you the governor of her, but the general radius of distance we're talking about that. There is only one place there where a football cannot be thrown. It was the one baby cart within a 10 mile radius of where she could have thrown the football. Baby cart, like a farm machine. One more time, can we see this? Because Lucy, I would like to ask you a question here.

I can't make out who the intended receiver is. No, we have no clue. I don't think she was throwing it to anybody. Like, I really don't know who it was. If we turn the audio up on that, you can hear people yelling, don't hit the baby. Please don't hit the baby. And then she immediately hit the baby.

Oh, for the love of God. Lucy, I cannot be sending you in public with these people who do these things. Like, you can't throw a football at a stroller. Put it on the poll at Lebert. hard show. Can you throw a football at a stroller? Or baby cart. Baby cart. And what's crazy is like she didn't even apologize.

She just like ran away. She ran away. Looking all sorts of crazy. That was a rambunctious group over at Iowa. It's not every weekend that you go over there and vibes are that good when they're playing Penn State. It's like this game

was so weird because like Iowa fans still view it as a really big game because it's like a really talented Penn State team. And Iowa has a quarterback that runs. That's never ever happened before. So these people were losing their mind. Also, Iowa to end the second half had like the dumbest special teams play I've ever seen where they were going for like a 70 yard field goal. It got blocked and Penn State scored based off of that. It was devastating. And Kirk Farrant's cried in this press conference about it. Like he literally shed tears. He was crying. I'll indulge you with one more Iowa question. They are finding their form. They have an upcoming date with Oregon. I like what I see from Iowa. This offense is certainly over the last few years, the one that you can trust the most.

They're getting better as a year goes on. Rose didn't look crazy at all. No, she was totally normal. Everything was cool. Yeah, this is the best, like Iowa has looked offensively in, you know, five years or so. It's been a really, really long time. Mark Rennowski, like, I know he only had, I think, like 60 passers on the night, but he was running really well.

Iowa's obviously the defense is good, special teams is great. They're sort of figuring out their identity right now. Mark really struggled to start off the season. but it seems like they're figuring stuff out. Kinnick is a very difficult place to play if you're a top five team. Like that's kind of a thing that has sort of fallen away the last few years, but it used to be like a given

if you were a top five team and you went into Iowa you were going to lose. So like I would not be surprised to see if they beat Oregon. Playoff hopes aren't dead, but I also am not buying into that. I'm not saying I was going to playoff. I want to cover a couple of different things here happening with Billy Napier and Mike Norvelle in the market because Norvelle started 12 and 16 in Florida State.

Then they won 19 straight, right? you could almost do whatever you want if you're going to win 19 straight. But then the snub happens, the quarterback gets hurt because, or the snub happens because the quarterback gets hurt, and now they're 5 and 15 cents, and it would cost $100 million to get him out. So where are you on all these guys? Billy Napier, Luke Fickle, Hugh Freeze, and Norvell, who doesn't appear to be fired because Florida State can't afford to eat the money.

There was a great little news bit. I think it was War Chant that put it out there that said Norvel announced to his team that he was indeed staying for the rest of the season and it was met with deafening silence. That is so funny. So with Billy Napier, obviously this was a decision that we all knew was going to happen. It was just sort of the timeline of when. I think it's a direct result of James Franklin because they fired him after a win over Mississippi State, a good Mississippi State team. it just sort of felt like okay Florida probably assumed that after this season that would be the top job in the market and now I don't necessarily know if that's the case

I kind of think Penn State is a better job and so to go and see all right now we're going to have to compete for Penn State with Penn State for the guys we want or maybe we want James Franklin who really knows I felt like that was sort of the catalyst of why Billy Napier was fired this week rather than you know a few weeks

from now when the season was over also maybe they were like we really don't want him to give him a chance to do what he did last year and win a couple games and now we're stuck with him. Mike, forgive me for a second. Why are you making faces at Penn State being a good job? I don't think so just because of what I understand it was kind of diluted by the success that James Franklin had over there, but there's a lot of Joe Paul as innocent people over in Penn State. Like their fan base is pretty crazy. The standard seemed to be an arrested development. And yeah, the things that surround Happy Valley are tricky to say the least.

I would like agree with that but also I'm like okay well your fan based in Florida all lives in Florida so they're also crazy just in a different way perhaps even a scarier way who really knows I just think like resources wise Penn State has a bunch that they can like work with and I do think Florida does as well but Penn State you probably feel a little bit more comfortable about job security even though you know that okay James Franklin was fired after three bad weeks he was there for you know 10 plus years before that and it feels like I don't necessarily know if I agree with but I think people would think that the Big Ten is probably easier to compete in. So if you're Marcus Freeman, let's say, you look at both destinations because both of these schools are interested in Marcus Freeman, what do you decide?

Do you go to a better talent base in Florida, or do you stay in that general region of the country? Are you now reporting this exclusively? I'm not reporting it exclusively. Like, there's a lot of people that are plugged in that know this and they share information. I'm not going to, but I am revealing it to you for the first time. It's a new time, when you tell me the notice, when you tell me the success, successful Notre Dame coach can be bought by Florida. We're in a new time and how we're going to be doing these things.

Marcus Freeman was in the college football playoff, and it was known that he was interested in going to the pros. There were programs like Florida who back-channeled and gauged interest. That's why his name keeps popping up in these things. I kind of think this one's like a personal preference, weird enough. Like Marcus Freeman, I can see him. I don't think he leaves Notre Dame, and I'm not just saying that because Jess is one of my closest friends.

Like, I really don't think he does. but if he were choosing between the two, I feel like just sort of the style of football at Penn State aligns more with what he's doing. Like, I really think it's just like a personal decision. I'm not quite familiar with either of their NIL standings, but I personally think Penn State's a better job, but I'm also like Big Ten biased.

But that's why I think Billy Napier was fired, specifically because that is now your competition, where before it was like Virginia Tech and Oklahoma State and potentially Auburn, which, by the way, something that I think is so, so funny this weekend was Auburn lost in double overtime against Missou, and Hugh Freeze was like, you know, it would be really nice if the AD came out and said they were going to keep me, you know?

It would be cool if they said they support me, and then they didn't do it. Howdy listeners, it's Mike Ryan and Chris Cody. Hey, everyone. Hey, Chris. We love hanging out so much. You were on my birthday the other day. You're old. You know what I saw in your hand?

I want to talk to Hannah the astrophysicist and I want to make bets with her. She's so smart. Not Ian. I want to, no. No. See, this is what I want to do with our show. No, not. No, don't let Billy's team of dumb demons

spew all over the bottom of this company and piss all over the show. No. Stugats. Ian broke down everyone that was drafted on the offensive line, except centers because the Jets didn't need one. Let's have Ian go against the astrophysicist, head to head, and let's see, let's put some money on it. You're informed idiot or Lucy's actually smart person who doesn't know anything,

but at least we're going to choose an astrophysicist and not Taylor's roommate who's not named Ian. This is the Dan LeBatar show with the Stugats. you didn't mention even we didn't get to luke fickle did we i mean you've been saying for weeks he's going to be fired so he got uh another sort of like moment of support this weekend where their a d came out and they were like we we support luke fickle we believe in wisconsin football we're going to invest money into wisconsin football which is not something that wisconsin has done um it's not something they've done for a long time so i don't necessarily know how much i believe it but They were shut out for the second time in a row this week against Ohio State.

It's like terrible times there. And I don't personally understand why they're sticking with Luke Fickle. Maybe it's because they look at this market now. You're like, okay, we're competing with Penn State and Florida and Virginia Tech and whatnot. But like, it's clearly not working at all. That is a truly terrible football team. And Wisconsin fans are deeply unhappy for a lot of reasons. But the big one is that there's like a Wisconsin-based like gas.

dealership there that they give you discounts via how much like Wisconsin scores and they haven't scored at also all their gas is full price. Same thing with Culvers. They can't get any free food from golfers. Why isn't this working out for Luke Fickle in Wisconsin? Because yeah, he appears to be out the door. He proved that Cincinnati. There's something to him. He has experience in the Big Ten. I'm surprised that the job is too big for him. It wasn't even the job is too big for him. Luke Fickle, Wisconsin was a job that did not need an overhaul. It just needed tuning up. Like, Wisconsin's identity has always been set.

Wisconsin is you run the ball, you have beefy, like, you know, Midwest offensive linemen, you have a strong defense, you need a serviceable quarterback and nothing else. Luke Fickle came in, even though they had a system that was working, it just wasn't like to its peak because Paul Chris never was as low as Luke Fickle is, and he decided I'm going to hire Phil Longo to be my offensive coordinator off the jump. Okay, bold move. That didn't work out at all. Completely, like, deranged the entire identity of Wisconsin football. He said, we're going to do the air raid here. Where are you going to get the talent for that in Wisconsin? You're not going to do that. So it went so poorly. The defense suffered because of it. The offense suffered because of it. Your entire identity is gone.

And so now he was like, okay, I'm going to, I'm going to redo it. I'm going to start over. I went and got the offensive coordinator from Kansas, but it's too late because you've already lost all that talent that would work with the original Wisconsin. identity, which is the only way you can win there. And instead, you went and got a bunch of talent for a system that's just not going to work at your school. And in the meantime, Brett Bilema, he went and he got all those guys that you were going to have at Wisconsin. And now Illinois is what they are. It was just like literally so dumb that I could not, I couldn't believe it when I was

saying it. I just, I have to salute that analysis as the best that you will hear on Wisconsin football anywhere for this particular reason. What she is saying that Wisconsin can only win, and they'll win nine games. games a year and never any of the meaningful ones. But the only way they will do it if it's grass fed. If it's if it's corn husker type of beef that it is fed and it's going to win by punching you in the face that we can't get athletes who do anything else. And it makes sense that their defense suffers because complimentary football, Dano. Lucy, I have to apologize to you last

week. I trotted out the take that people don't like Carson Beck maybe because he's not handsome. I don't know. But it's because he occasionally throws four interceptions and then displays bad leadership post game. What do you make of that upset? I know there are some people that are doom and gloom. I never thought that there was an undefeated team in this nation, let alone Miami. I always thought that they were good for a dumb loss. In Louisville, very quietly over the last two years, just flatly doesn't lose games by more than one score.

That is a well-coached team. Jeff Brom has showed he can upset teams. Look, you're going to love my answer to this because I don't think too much of it because we've all been Jeff Brom before. This has happened to me personally many times. Like, he always does this. He is very sneaky in the way that every year it feels like he just pulls something out of his bag and he's able to beat a really good team.

Like, Jeff Brom, I think, is one of the most underrated coaches in college football. Like, they have a strict identity. They knew who they are. He's such a good fit for that Louisville program. Yeah, Carson Beck had a rough game. I feel like sort of the thing with Carson Beck is you saw a little bit against Louisville, what you saw Georgia last year, where when he is good, he is really, really good. But the second he, like, flounders a little bit, it's all or nothing with him.

Like, I don't know if he casually just has like an okay game. It's either like a great one or he's going to throw four interceptions. But I'm not too worried about it because like that is a good Louisville team. Like I'm not, I don't think that's a bad loss by any means. And Jeff Rom just tends to do that. Yeah, the postgame presser, maybe not the best move. Maybe not a great idea. Maybe I would have just kept that one to myself.

I think what's interesting now is that Miami doesn't control their own destiny to the ACC championship. They need Georgia Tech or Virginia to lose to make it to Charlotte, which is just like kind of crazy to be in that position with a roster this good, with the best team Miami's had in a very long time. Well, I want to get inside, okay, when we make these students or young people professionals. I want to get inside of whatever it is Carson Beck has been living for the last three years. And just to ask you, Lucy, as someone who was on the Georgia sideline predicting his interceptions last year,

expecting his interceptions last year, when someone of this age is in a game where, is clear. Brom is outclassing Miami everywhere, even though he does not have the athletes that Miami has. And also, the game plan is clearly, nope, there will be no running in this game, friend. It's all you. You want to throw way down field? Let's see, Beck, what you got? It's going to be all you, plenty of pass protection. What do you have, Beck? Like, you're telling me that that's a quarterback who shrinks there. I mean, yeah, he's done that before. I think that was sort of the issue at Georgia is like and I also think it's important to include the context of last year Miami had a quarterback who could you know do that in that moment so it's something you've been used to that

course a back is obviously not of cam Ward's caliber and just like won't be but yeah I think it was just like that was the first time they were like really had him in hell and he just kind of fell apart and it's something he's done before I don't think it's something that's going to happen a ton again but it's also something worth noting we're like okay it's good that you got this under your belt because you're going to play teams a lot tougher than Louisville going to forward. I think, like, my real issue with Carson Beck was just like, hey, you lost a game. It happens. You got to be a little bit smarter in the postgame press conference because, like, Mike is right in the sense that, you know, it is a little bit more difficult with him just because

the reputation he has at Georgia and sort of that people don't like him. Like, you've got to be a lot smarter about the stuff you're saying. Yeah, they feel like Beck and his camp feel like they slaughtered his reputation with how talkative they were and how the narrative was when Gunner Stockton took over. He's like, this is the team's guy. And he felt it was unfair because he played while he was hurt, encouraged by the training staff to go out there and play while he was hurt. He felt like he gave it all for his team and it wasn't reciprocated. I will say, though, I totally agree. He's got to be better in the post game. That felt a lot like the guy they were telling me about. Now, I know from talking to his camp, this offseason was very difficult for him. It was

a big transition for a young man, and he rediscovered his passion for the game, and he came out more mature. He's going to need to. Teams are going to decide to take the run game away from Miami, especially if they have a conservative run game, which is just committed to the A gap. Now they did that against FSU, and he torched him. The thing about FSU was, he wasn't down 14-0 at the time and being in predictable passing situation. So Miami needs to clean things up to make sure that the running game can stay honest. But, Mike, he had such a great fall camp.

He did. He did. You want to throw that in my face? Like, you know jack shit? That's another one. You know jack shit, Dan. You don't know jack shit. No, and not by a little in fall camp.

By a lot. Depends to not know Jack's shit. Lucy, does a one-lost Miami team that doesn't even appear in the ACC championship game? Do they definitely make a playoff? Oh, this is begging and I won't have you do it. This is begging and I won't have you do it. It's disgusting what you guys are doing. That's theoretically not possible.

So, or I guess, no, yeah, it is. Because if Virginia and Georgia Tech finished the season undefeated and Miami beats at SMU, they still UVA and Georgia Tech undefeated, then they won't make the ACC championship game. Any team that only has one loss that's in the power four is going to make the playoffs, like that's just going to happen, especially because like I test Miami is a very good football team. Like I think it would take another like kind of like really stupid dumb loss, which I actually don't think that little loss was stupid, but we all know that there's the concern with Miami that that happens.

But to me this one was just so obvious in terms of how it is that Beck must have felt a low out there. Oh, I'm being outcoached everywhere. They're begging me to throw the football. They're not allowing us to run, even though the advantage we have in this game, the biggest surprise in that game is why wasn't Miami couldn't run? Brom wasn't going to let him run. He was going to try and cover those receivers with that secondary and did. They made three great interceptions. Yeah, they made unbelievable plays. I am curious, if Miami does drop the other one, we know the other dumb one. And let's say just like last year. Let's buy one score. It can be Virginia. It could be Pittsburgh.

It can be anywhere. Well, it could be Virginia Tech. They don't play Virginia, which is another weird quirk. Who's the one that you're talking about? The ACC had this situation last year and they're trying to address it by adding an additional conference game. But yeah, you have Georgia Tech as Lucy mentioned. You had the weird

thing with Virginia where they lost an ACC team but are undefeated in the ACC conference. It doesn't count. Because it was a non-conference game because the teams decided they wanted to keep playing. It's so funny. That's bullshit. Where Miami is aided is that, unlike last year, their non-conference wins appear to be really good.

They have the USF win. They have the Notre Dame win based on form. Notre Dame looks like a top five team all of a sudden. And we know the committee likes good losses. Right now, presently, Louisville's ranked in the teams. What in Miami just says their Louisville loss is not an ACC game? They should. Lucy, why is that so funny?

because it's just like ACC is so stupid they're so dumb what do you mean like Miami truly would be in a great spot if that game had counted because Virginia lost but it did it for no reason they were like yeah we're just going to play each other

but it's not a conference what okay sure that is so ACC I love this silly little conference they're so silly with AMX platinum access to exclusive AMX pre-sale tickets can score you a spot track side so being a fan for life turns into the trip of a lifetime

I don't care for him And I hope he has the day he deserves Oh, let's see Stugats I hope he has the day he deserves That's how I get people When they're really mean to me I'm not like, go F yourself.

I'm like, I hope you have the day you deserve. It's a great kind, it's a great kind insult, yes. It's beautiful. It's leaving it to the cosmos to sort it out. That's a less southern, bless your heart. This is the Dan Levitar show with the Stugats. You and Zazlo are going to be in the same place this Saturday. Have either of you done Baton Rouge at night?

Because it's insane. I have not. I'm excited. crazy. Have you been, Lucy, have you done this before? This is one of my favorite spot, so I'm very, very excited, even though that this could be a Brian Kelly gets fired game, which actually I think is going to make it way more fun. I'm so excited. I love LSU fans. They are nuts. Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. I went last year, it was a day game, terrible game. They played UCLA. Get the hell out of here.

But this game, night game, everyone tells me, Death Valley at night, death valley, okay, what are you got? I'm going to be there. It's going to be pretty epic. It's actually so cool. Texas A&M is really. good, but they're playing in a conference, which again, they're doing this thing. Is this count in the conference in this game? It does, but I do think the conference is overrated because it's being judged against its reputation from years past, and I think it's a type of conference where Texas A&M can lose to LSU, especially a nighttime game in that stadium. I don't understand why Tennessee is ranked ahead of the teams that they're ranked. They don't have a good win. Their best

win is against Mississippi State, but again, good losses inside that conference. I think we all need take a moment to just reflect on the fact that Vanderbilt beat LSU this weekend and did not storm the field. Oh, I'm going to say it again. Vanderbilt, this is one of the things that gets James Franklin and Billy Napier fired. Vanderbilt is 6'1 for the first time since 1950, and they've now defeated two top 10 teams in the last 12 months. They can play with Alabama. Everyone can see that they can play with Alabama. No, they hung in that game. The final score isn't reflective of what a battle that game was. However, there is some fake news to this because I saw a report that said Vanderbilt reputed to be a very intelligent school, very expensive school.

They waited until LSU's personnel and players left the field so they would not be subject to the SEC fine, and then they went on the field. Boo. We have Lucy's Internet. Unserious program. Lucy's Internet Minute. But, Jeremy, any last thoughts, as Mike sort of hogged everything here with UM talks? in a way that didn't allow a lot of room for objection.

I mean, my name is Jack Shit related to the shit family, as exemplified here by my, hello, my name is Jack Shit. I think Mike. Name tag. Mike. I don't know, man. Hi, Mr. Sheet.

How are you going to tell me I don't know Jack shit? You don't know Jack shit. You thought Carson Beck was better than Cam Ward. In Fall Camp. Yeah. Also a better run. He was right at the time. No.

I wasn't. Oh, he was right at the time. You were right at the time. Still right. Better fall camp. Were you at fall camp? I didn't see you there, Mr. Schitt. Again with the Mr. Jack shit.

I was looking around for Mr. shit. I didn't see him. He hit me yesterday with some alums don't do anything for the program. That's what he hit. You hear, he's throwing veiled shots all over the place. Now, he was looking right at me.

Okay. He was looking right at me and touting his own. His own. Oh, I know what that means. Oh, well, time to get in it. It's Lucy's Internet Minute. Yay, that's so great. Kim Kardashian went on the Call Her Daddy podcast this weekend,

which I'm actually not really a big fan of that podcast. We can talk about that later. But she had the most Lucille Bluth moment ever where Alex Cooper, the host, asked her how much money she spent on makeup a year or on glam. And she was like, I don't know, I don't really know the price of things. Like, I'd love to figure out how much milk carton cost. Oh, girl, you could just go to the store.

Also, milk carton? She's had kind of a weird week. They released, like, a new line of skims, which include a bush thong, which is just hair on the outside of the thong. She didn't an interview with, like, a ski mask. It's not a ski mask, but, like, I don't know what to call it. There's something completely over her face. Yeah, like, not even a veil, though. It was real creepy.

Yeah, she's having a weird week online, but she doesn't know how much milk costs, which, like, I didn't think she did, but I probably would have just kept that to myself. how much are baby carts more expensive than you think much more dano depends on the taste but you know wives zaz oh I know what they like

you know who also loves that babies it's a banana michael what could it cost 10 dollars how much is a baby heart on the black market do you don't want to know don't ask that question never ask that question no that's not asked that question I never never asked that question I love you I respect you don't ask that question again

why did you think that was a good question ask the Democrats Lucy uh thank you for being on with us. We'll talk to you next week. Jeremy is mad about the UM talk, and he's also mad because we're not talking enough baseball. I do not blame him.

There was a game seven last night. Mike doesn't want to talk about Baker Mayfield all of a sudden. He's missing high, you know, let's just get to that bite. No, I watched the entire baseball game. Multi-view, Dan. And this baseball game was incredible. That's good.

I'm devastated. The greatest Mariners season of this century dies. dies on the doorstep because Toronto clubs the baseball, but also, God almighty, is Toronto going to have any chance? They really, really hit. Vladimir Guerrero hits everything hard. Doesn't strike out and hits everything hard, but do they have any chance against four aces? I mean, they have a chance. Like, the Mariners pitching was really good throughout that. Cody has to walk to Seattle. Excuse me. Cody has to walk to Seattle. He loses that bet. Sorry about that. We've developed a plan. I'm glad you mentioned that because we do need to close this.

Remember, he's old. He's old. And he has bed knee. And he's got a trick knee. We didn't say where he's walking from when he gets to Seattle. So we're going to find a neighboring town. We are committed to that. Thank you.

You can take this to the bank. Thank you. Greg Cody. As long as I have air in my lungs. We'll be walking to Seattle. He lost the bed. Just from a nearby town. Why would he think a team can't come back from two nothing?

I don't understand. Why would you be so confident that a team cannot overcome two games to none, let alone in baseball? Probably because he had not watched either of those teams play the entire season until those two games. And if you only watched those two games, it seemed like there was a giant disparity between the talent levels. And then he offered up the thing he would do if it happens. No one said, hey, what were you doing? I'll walk to Seattle. I really do love this World Series, the World's World Series, okay, because Canada's

doesn't get to win these things. And this team is like, it's got a major league baseball chromosome because more than taking descendants, we haven't seen Bichette yet. This team rakes. And he's supposed to be back. I thought Baltimore was going to win that division for 10 years. I'm surprised that Toronto had more wins. Toronto deserves to be there.

Toronto, I think, had more wins during the regular season than the greatest roster ever assembled. Didn't Toronto win more games than the Dodgers this season? If they didn't, it was close because they won like 93 or 94. games. They're great and they mash, but Dodger pitching is unprecedented with an ERA, never mind the ERA, all the other advanced metrics that say it's the best starting pitching you've ever seen in a playoff. No, you're right, Dan. I mean, to have Blake Snell back, like the reason that the Blue Jays did win one more game this season than the Dodgers did

is because they maintain their health for most of it. Now, Bichette was out at the end of the year. That offense was consistent all year long. And in the playoffs, actually having Andre S. Jimenez, at shortstop was kind of an advantage because Bo Bichette is not a tremendous defensive shortstop. But to add him to that lineup, a guy who led that team in hits, who was right near the top of the American League in hits, if there's a team that was going to be formidable for the Dodgers, it's this Blue Jays team because their bullpen is so spectacular that if the offense can give them a lead early, you have an opportunity to do some things.

But George Springer, I mean, he's the guy here where now he's tied for third all time in postseason home runs. He has his moment in a Blue Jay's uniform. I love that Blue Jay's playoff crowd. It's so good. It was spectacular. And to watch him be able to do that in that moment. Remember, just a few days ago, he took a 96 mile an hour fastball off his knee. I thought he broke his kneecap. He was writhing around on the ground. And then he comes back and has this moment in that spot to give them the lead as one of the great playoff performers of all time. He's the only guy on that team with World Series experience, including their bench coach, Donnie Baseball, who gets to be there, Donnie Tebowl. This feels like a real

world series, though, where you have obviously Shohei Otani doing Hercules and things, and then you've got Canada's team. Canada's team responsible for Joe Carter's home run, which once, you know, a generation ago, is the time that felt most like this. Poor Mitch Williams. It felt most like this in what it is you see. The last time you saw this in Toronto might have been the Batista Batflip in terms of... But you're talking about 20 years of this region

cares deeply about this baseball team and now it goes to fight the greatest roster ever assembled after a slug fight against the best Seattle team we've seen this century. It's good storylines but you've got to give us some drama against the Dodgers. You can't just roll over.

They're steaming everybody. Like they're steam rolling. The Dodgers, the Brewers, the Brewers, are a very good baseball team. Like, they had no chance. The difference between the Brewers and the Blue Jays, though, is that the Blue Jays offense is more potent. What the Brewers were able to do throughout the year

was like all the little things right. They would lay down bunts. They would bunts for base hits. They'd pull off hit and runs. They'd go first to third really well. They weren't able to do those things against the Dodgers because they were striking out so much. The Blue Jays have more pop.

And I mean, look at this photo. Putting Joe Carter and George Springer next to each other in those moments in Toronto. they have a chance. Do I think that they're going to win the series? No, I think the Dodgers should win this series. But if there was a team in the American League that had an opportunity that if they got hot and played their best baseball that could beat the Dodgers, it would have been the Blue Jays probably from the start. Congratulations to Bellevue, Washington. You're the closest city we deemed worthy of Greg Cody walking from. And how do we classify a city?

City's got to have a mayor. So this is about a four-hour walk that Greg Cody's got ahead of It's 10 miles in totality. This is a man with a trickney, folks. He's got to make the walk. In the interim, let's hear the home run call. Springer home run call in French. There's a battle that brings at Springer. He'll be in front of direction of the shore-goach.

At the pace of the vassismar, circuit, George of Springer. Serent John and me, we've been on parley. He will live a moment where he will make the difference, Malgris the fact that he is blessed, Kirk Gibson out of this card, it's four to three for the Blue Jays. The Maginal Stad.
