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. Quervo.

The tequila. That invented tequila. Roximo.com. Please drink responsibly. Quervo. This is the Dan Levator show with the Stugats podcast. Lucy Rodin will be with us here. She went somewhere strange this weekend.

What was that game that she was covering? I just saw some footage from Georgia, from the Georgia Southern football game. Appalachian State. Okay. Blue in North Carolina. What a beautiful place. Right. We will talk to Lucy about that, but Amin joins us now for weekend observations and some other things.

Did you have any commentary on some of the things that we covered earlier in the show? Zaslow judges people who sleep on airport floors. Mike Ryan doesn't like being judged that way. Zaslo is also someone who is against airplane mode on a airplane on his cell phone and will spill a drink on you if you tell him that he shouldn't mess with the... It got all over her lap. The pilot's, you know, technology, what are your thoughts there, I mean? Well, first of all, airplane mode is an absolute hoax. They did it because they don't want people to be on their phones talking and having conversations the whole time. It does nothing.

I learned this in 2008, I want to say 2009, Dan. I was on the charter flight with the Sons and I forgot to put my phone in airplane mode. And lo behold, it didn't crash. Yep. And so I told my brother, who's electrical engineering, he's like, yeah, like the number of phones it would take to not be on airplane mode, to interfere with the plane's operation, you would need like 500,000 phones. They don't do enough individually or even collectively with 300 people on board to really severely interrupt airplane operations. Jeremy is sour. He's making an assortment of sour faces at you. These are just a bunch of people who don't like to take one for the team.

Look, I'm not saying that my one cell phone is going to be. bring down this plane. But if everybody has that attitude, I mean, look at what happened in 2020. I just told you, if everyone had the attitude on a plane, it's still not enough phones. There's a lot of planes in the sky. Take that from someone who didn't finish at Georgia Tech because he couldn't do the

Widowmaker test, couldn't pass the Widowmaker's time. I got a D in that. D is for done at Georgia Tech. It's true. You don't have the engineering expertise required here to tell us whether airplane mode is a hoax or not. I don't, but if you are listening, Steve Martin, you would hear that I told you that my brother who has a PhD in

electrical engineering was the one who reassured me of this. What are your opinions on an airplane sleeping on the airport floor? Disgusting. Disgusting. Nobody, can I just get on the front end? We're not sitting here saying, oh, we love to do it. I love nothing more. It's when you're stuck there for five hours.

I'm not just going to sit in these uncomfortable chairs for five hours. Definitely not going to lie down on the disgusting floor. Exactly. The only place to lay down was the bathroom right under the urinals. Would you be like, what am I going to do? I'm just going to sit in these uncomfortable. But that's not the only option. Just being silly.

That's a silly comparison. It's a silly comparison. It's right next to it. People go to these journals, pee everywhere, step all over that. Do you think they wipe their shoes on the way out? No, they're tracking all that shit all across the entire airport. Millions of people all across the country, flying from everywhere, stepping in God knows what. Yeah, but I'm tired.

Hell, Ethan, the other day stepped in dog shit and walked all over our office. You think I'm going to take a nap on the office floor? Do you know about that, Dan? I don't want to know about that. Oh, now Mr. Dog Lover doesn't want to know about that. No, it's not that I'm a dog lover. It's that I'm an Ethan Hater. Hmm.

Oh. Yeah. Time now for Amin's Weekend Observations. It is time for him to share his game notes. No one in the media will tell you what happened better than my voice. I mean. Weekend Observations is presented by Miller Light. Turn on the original sound so I can hear the beeps.

It is. And we just didn't have a beep. Got it. Now it's on. Don't say it is. It is now. I hear it now. It was on the whole time, David.

It was on the entire time. Stop being such a man. This is not good. This is the start to the Dolphys game. I did not hear beeps and I did not hear music. Then after I said turn it on, then I heard the music. You're not going to tell me it was on the old time. We all heard the beep.

We all heard everything. You heard it. I'm on Zoom. I always did not click a single button. Dan. It's been a long. long ass time. Over 1100 days to be exact. They dominated the past three years of regular season matchups with one caveat. Because just like that, make no mistake. The bills losing

to the dolphins in the 1 p.m. window is back. Last time, they blamed the sun. This time it's the rain. Weather. I told you, Greg Cody, be strong. Leave it. it to the Jets to fuck up a tank job. Leave it to the Browns to lose to the team with 169 yards of total offense. Janus asking if he has college eligibility.

Got me thinking of two things. One, what would Janus do in an NCAA game? Just think about it for a second day. Imagine Janus playing against teenagers. Number two, wouldn't it be here? hilarious if he was okayed by the NCAA only to be deemed academically ineligible. Jackson Dart entered concussion protocol Sunday versus the Bears after I told the Giants

last week to protect him at all costs. For Christ's sake, guys, we finally got something right. Don't turn them into Tua. Diana Rusini. What's you saying? Everyone owes you an apology. Davis Mills. Clutch.

Let a 26-0 Texans score in the fourth quarter She said that if anyone called the Texans It would be no way and they would hang up the phone I don't believe that that is something that the Texans should do You guys laughed and then what did he do yesterday? Clutch That was the Jags being not clutch That wasn't Davis Mills being clutch

H-N Made the bills his Wow Mike you asked if AI can be harassed. I think the distinguished gentleman from Mauritania on Plyuribus would say you cannot. It's a good show. Oh my God, that show.

Is Pleribus just the Rick and Morty episode where Rick dates the unity? Daniel Jones' mouth. Look like he was an extra on true blood. It's okay. What was that white stuff all over my screen in Giants versus Bears? It was like falling everywhere. Let us catch that? Snow.

It was snow games this weekend. Snow games. That's what that was. Okay. So it's doing that now, huh? It was early for that, right? Early November, it's a little early for snow games, isn't it? And college basketball.

I live in Phoenix and I work in Miami. I wouldn't know. Dan wanting to talk about the World Series. Congrats, Chris. Greg Get for the slow report. Look, man, it was 10 days ago. What are you talking about? Two things that people weren't talking about, though.

Zoe Saldana. Dancing in a T-Mobile ad while chanting, I got rhythm, I got rhythm. The number can't be that high, guys. It just can't. Jackson Smith and Jigba. Too early to call in the best wide-out in football? I mean, every time I look up, they're in the first quarter.

He's got four catches for 82 yards. Jacksonville. Not a single player or coach was on their game. I guess you could say they were a team of jaggoffs. Jaggoffs, Dan. Jags, and they were off. Does Dan think Alejandro Kirk is Canadian? You keep saying he let his country down.

Or are you talking about Mexico? Because someone who lives somewhere with a large Mexican representation, I can assure you he didn't let Mexico down. They like the Dodgers, Dan. A lot. Fernando Valenzuela, look him up. How many edibles are appropriate for a weekend trip? Tommy Tuberville thinks New York City will be completely Muslim in three to four years.

No punchline necessary. People voted for that guy. The unsung hero, the Bill's Finns game. Paul. Is that his first name or his last name? I don't know. I do know that Dan was probably going to jump in and explain to me how I ruined the joke by asking Dan, I get the joke, that's why I said it.

That's what you did last week. It still haunts me that you thought I didn't get the joke. Here come the Ravens. If you bring a shit ton of edibles on a trip, make sure they're in a secure place. Or else a dog might get into them. Oh, no. That's a very dangerous situation. No.

Although simultaneously, makes for a lot of hilarious photos of a dog high-house. off its ass. I don't condone leaving edibles out for a dog to eat. We can agree the ensuing photos are in fact hilarious. A lot of Hitler references in that Berlin game.

Supercharged that. But yeah, they definitely hit the over on references to that particular despot. All because they played a game in that capital city. On to something completely different. Donald Trump was at Lions Commanders.

Did Trump think the Fox national broadcast was the commander's broadcast? He kept saying things like, now your ratings have gone up because you have hope, because they have a quarterback. And you have a wonderful owner and Josh and his group. Funny as part of the weekend, when Trump was leaving the booth, he tried to dab up Jonathan Vilma. Do you guys see that? Did not. But he tried to. He gave him like the half shug, you know, hit him in the back.

But then he shook his hand for some reason. I've told you the story of one of the most awkward moments like that I've ever seen involves Greg Cody Bourbon Street. Ray Lewis ending up in a mink coat on Bourbon Street trying to do that with Greg Cody. Greg Cody got totally turned around and ended up with his back to Ray Lewis while trying to do a handshake. He got turned around. He ended up inside of his mink in a way that was totally awkward with his back to Ray Lewis. How many Steeler fans were at that Chargers game? It was so loud.

They'd travel well. Or was that just Dave Damishak yammering away enough for 70,000 people? Yamersheck. Charlie the Ruiner. I'm disappointed we didn't get Cody saying, Bair. Anyone else? No?

Just me. Got it. Mike McDaniel. Fed in post-game comments. Quote, I'm happy that everyone gets to see the side that I see. I see guys win, lose, or draw, focus, and lean in and buy in. Tua backed them up. Saying, Karma, Karma, Karma, Camelian.

We beat a great team today, and I'm proud of the guys in the locker room. Lou Diamond Phillips. Don't judge me, you hypocrites. You guys lost it. Oh, Tua lost it. Oh, too, it doesn't have it anymore. Why do you think that is? The CTE.

You're not going to take the fun out of that for me. Fun Cushion. Here's the science. What's up? Fun Cushions. Fun Cushions. There you go. Fun CTE.

Here's the science. A Bar Rescue podcast. Me, Zach Harper, Chelsea Reynolds, and Colin Cassardt, pull back the doors. Bust open the books and make the call for your support. Live Washington's at noon Pacific 3 p.m. Eastern. every Monday. Like, subscribe, rate review, wherever you get podcasts. What are you doing? Had a dream? What is that? You're just doing a promo in the middle of weekend observations.

That's not like observations. I made an observation that I have a podcast every week. It's about Bar Rescue. We do live Washington on Mondays and the episodes come out on Tuesdays. What? Had a dream. Dan announced his retirement live on air mid show. Dude, the fans were going nuts. The crew was stunned. The big lead and awful announcing were scrambling and put out newsers. David Samson was irate that Dan did leverage the moment in a better way. Local and national news outlets were blowing up all our phones with interview requests.

I was the only one who thought it was hysterical. I just kept laughing. Because I told Samson, yo, I think he's doing an Andy Kaufman thing. He's not retiring at all. It was just a joke. You had a dream? This was in your sleep? Yeah, it's in my sleep.

It's a very detailed dream. I don't remember anything. My dreams are detailed. I write him down, Zaz. No one believes me, but I write him down. Also, for some reason, I had faxes all over my house like it was back to the future, too. It's like, oh, Dan retired. Like, what?

Why do I have a fax machine in the bathroom? Top five things I think is funny, but other people think is no laughing matter. O-L-I. A dog getting super high. Here he is. It's also funny. Number five, my story about how Vanessa Carlton was destitute until the movie White Chick saved her career.

Number four, Dan fake retiring in the middle of a show. Number three, two a CTE jokes. Fun cussion. Number two, the Instagram account, kids getting hurt. And the number one thing I think is funny, but other people think it's no laughing matter. The missed connections bit I do. Missed connection.

You were the stunning beauty who commanded everyone's attention and stopped traffic. I was the guy you teabone in the middle of the intersection. Texas moved up two spots in the polls despite being idle. Bullshit.

G.T. plays BC next week. About to bring a dark clouded world and put the sun down on the ass. What's up, Trevor? Go to hell, BC, Mike. Speaking of hell, Art Bryles, those are the weekend observations. What level of crushed were you by Georgia Tech losing to NC State and that way?

Like, is that the most that a football loss has ever hurt you? No, no, no, no. I mean, Dan, this is, you got to understand, man. I went to school with Joe Hamilton. He was my next door neighbor. I saw, like, the peaks of we're about to win a national championship if we can beat Peter Warwick and the Florida State Seminoles. Like, that's the pinnacle.

This is just gravy. Like, I'm happy from my school. It's fun. It sucks that we lost to NC State. But as Mike tells me, they win that game every single time when their coach needs to save his job. Yeah, it's a trademark save Dave Doran job game.

Yeah, amino acid. This is the Dan Levatar show with the Stugats. Do you have any updates for us on John Morant? Is he going to get moved? Well, Dan, I talked to John Krasinski, who, not that John Krasinski, the other one, the one that works for the AP who covers the Minnesota Timberwolves. And he said the T-Wools are checking in on that situation. They're monitoring.

They're monitoring the situation. Officially, he's not on the block, but obviously Minnesota's a team that's very interested. They have a need at point guard. There are some questions on how he would fit, because, again, he's a very ball-dominant player, and the Timberwolves have been subsisting on a lot of threes and the ball being in Julius Randall's hands and the Edwards' hands. But, I mean, it's hard to say, again, like Miami, it's like if John Morant is on the block,

how can you say, no, no, not for me, Clive? He's terrible now. But he's terrible because of the offense they're running. He's not good in that offense. He's not comfortable. And Zaz, as I said last week, in the NBA, when you want out, you don't hold out, you don't sit out, you show up and you make a mess. and I think that's...

He's not terrible, says. Like, you can't say that that athlete... I know, but that athlete at that age, I understand that 3 for 18 is terrible. But he's not terrible. He didn't forget how to play basketball. You put him in the right place. He's still going to be great at basketball.

I would think so, but on the year, too, like he's shooting 37% so far this year. He was already a terrible three-point shooter, and that's even worse now. I mean, is he attacking the basket as much? But I haven't watched it because, like you said, like this coach, it's a bit of a different style. Yeah, Zaz, it would be like

a star receiver getting one reception a game and you say, oh, he fell off. No, they're running the ball on every play now. And so he just doesn't have that same comfort and the same number of opportunities. We mentioned earlier, Pluribus on Apple TV.

Do I got to watch that? You do have to watch that. I mean, the amount first of all, Ria Seahorn in Better Call Saul was exceptional and I am. I thought you Claire Danes this whole time. I am continually flabbergasted by the amount of money that Apple has. I know we know that Apple has a lot of money, but to bring Vince Gilligan out of retirement and to give him that kind of budget to make whatever he wants, you know he's going to make something good. What have

you seen of it? It's only a couple of episodes in, but that is the kind of thing that would be enough to get people to subscribe to Apple if they're not already subscribed to Apple. Then it reminded me a little bit of paradise in that it's just a very fun different concept like it's just a different concept of a show than we're accustomed to seeing and the imagination of what would happen if this happened i'm not going to give it away but like if this happened to the world how would you don't have to give it away without say all you have to say is the most miserable person on earth is trying to save people from happiness that's the premise yes yes that's i don't know what that means yeah you got to watch the show you got to watch the show but uh

Dan, I'm going to tell you one thing. It's incredibly well-written and beautifully shot, as you mentioned. It's not unlike Frankenstein, which I saw on Netflix. She's also well-written and beautifully shot, but needed an editor. Because, again, enough with these streaming people, giving these movie makers, I make however long a movie you want. Two and a half hours for us to just have Oscar Isaac laying in a bed half the time telling the story. It's just a little too much.

It is weird, though, that we can watch an eight-part series, no problem, eight hours, but two and a half hours in one movie is too much. It's just a weird thing that's happening. Our brains are broken here. I don't know if our brains are broken. I think there's an expectation. Movies are supposed to be a story told

continuously within a certain amount of time whereas TV shows they have arcs and they have many arcs in between and it's designed to have a much longer watch because there are these peaks and valleys where they get you back in with a cliffhanger. You can't do that in one sitting in the movie. It's too much.

What's your cutoff point on how long a movie has to be where you check out on it? Because two and a half hours is too much for me. If I see two and a half hours, I'm unlikely to watch it. What is your cutoff point? Cinephobe listeners, no. If a movie's longer than two hours, automatically my intrasogled before it's even started. Most movies now, I feel like are over two hours. Because they let these Jemokes do whatever they want, Zaz.

Like, oh, I'm an O'Toole, let me do the longest movie ever. It's art. I'm like, yeah, go ahead. here's money. I'm Netflix. That's why. Now, again, Guillermo del Toro is a great movie maker, and so I had the patience. You know what? I'm going to have the patience. I'm going to try and watch this. One sitting. It took me two sittings. I liked it. It's a good movie. It just needed to be edited down.

I mean, thank you. We will check in next week. Thank you. You held down the fort in a way that was admirable last week. Everyone is celebrating how well you did last week. Thank you for your help last week, sir. You're welcome. I'll be there on Wednesday. I don't have to check in next week. Okay. I didn't know. like next week. All right. I didn't know that. I thought Cody was going to be here today. I thought God's was going to be here a month ago. I don't know. Jumping Charlie's. I don't know when anybody's going to be here on here.

Furniture. Jumping Charlie's attacking furniture. The cats are slapping them in the face. Come on, man. Cody Show. Check it out. Lucy Rodin next.

He seems like a not nice guy and he's always been a not nice guy. 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. I love Abstead University, and I love you, Mom.

Six, seven. Yippee! Your job. Dan, for the first time in off-roading history, we are at a group of five game. I am embarrassed, disappointed, and disgusted in myself, and it took us this long to make it to the G5, but we're here for a rivalry.

Ab State, Georgia Southern. These teams do not like each other. We're in the mountains. We're having a great time. How much do you hate Georgia Southern? Ooh. They just say they stink. I got nothing good to say about Georgia Southern.

Not one good thing? Nothing. Not a damn thing. On a scale of 1 to 10, how much do you hate them? 11. We are not fans of Georgia Southern. How would you guys describe the group of five experience compared to the Power 5 or 4?

I think the community comes together real well. I mean, you see we're out here on a Thursday night. A lot of us got classes. tomorrow morning but we're still here so such nice people a great university this town wouldn't be saying without without the University of App State older generations from App State that still come to the games over and over again winter loss they still come back every every weekend every Thursday night they're here and they're ready to cheer on the team everyone needs to experience

the hill at least once in their life what should I be prepared for if I go to the hill exactly what it sounds like it is a hill that students go down and just have the wildest time of their entire lives every single week. How many, like, people do you see sliding down the field on, like, a game basis? Like, how many would you estimate? At least, like, 15, I think. 15 to, like, 30. So I understand you're, like, the OG game bib wearer.

How did this start? This started with a group of friends back in 2012. We were showing up in these every single week. We ended up being told by the coaches that they ended up telling all the recruits about us every single time they were going out to get freshmen as well. Oh, that's so cute. Do you guys have like a name? Stripe Squad.

Stripe Squad is good. How do you feel when people pronounce Appalachian as Appalachian? It makes me so mad. It's the South. Respect it. Nails on a chalkboard, drives me insane. Absolutely terrible. She keeps doing it.

Pronounce it right, Rose. Appalachian. Dan, if you're like, Lucy, you seem different. You seem sad. There's something wrong. Yeah, there is. While we were doing the interviews, a kid called me unk.

He said, oh, so you're unk? What? He was like, so what year did you graduate at high school? I said, oh, a long time ago. Oh, so you're unk? That's a kid that called me unk. That's the kid that called me unk. Peanut Pete! Peanut Pete! Peanut Pete! Peanut Pete here thinks he can do my job better than me.

And he said, I'll do the interview. Well, he said with his eyes, so... Yes, sir. Have you ever turned a tailgate with a peanut before? It's very difficult. I just ate a peanut. How do you feel? You know, that's the end of them. Oh, my goodness. And I love peanuts. Of all the snack nuts, they're my favorite. Oh, yeah.

Honestly, pistachios eat . Oh! Oh! Everybody wants to be his friend. Everybody wants to talk to him. What? Just because you're handing out delicious snack nuts. Everybody wants to hang out with you and not me.

Hampton Farms, Peatuts are my favorite. Woo! I don't like sharing the spotlight. I could go home. No one would notice. Oh! Oh! Peat!

He's always behind. He's a peanut wait, too. Because he can't see it at that. This is our nuttyest fan of the tailgate right here. Hell yeah. Go near! Today's trip is brought to you by Hampton Farm Peanuts. Get Nutty with Hampton Farms, the official snack nut of bowl season.

How many times do you guys try to sneak in the Ab State Michigan game in a conversation on a daily basis? Oh, every time. Every time. Rightfully so. Let me show you something, actually. Oh, let's see it. Let's see it.

Let's see it. The Michigan game. But when we silenced one. 103,000 people by blocking that Philgo, the feeling you had to be there. And the ones that were there, do what it felt like. Drive Kings! Drive Kings! Nears by a million!

I'm getting my bread tonight. And it's Peanuts. This trip to The Rock was brought to you by Game Time. Download the GameTime app and use Code Lucy for $20 off your first order, term supply. What time is it? It's Game Time. Dan, no, App State did not win today, but we had a blast. We got to get more group of five games on the schedule. But as they say here in Boone, lovely Boone, roll nears, drink beers.

Maybe they could add scoring touchdowns of the list. I think that would help things out quite a bit. Hold on those nears there, but I guess. That was scary. I was made uncomfortable by everything that was happening there. What happened? Yeah, it was uncomfortable. Although, I don't know how you ended up at Appalachian State.

I have been saying Appalachian all my life. Oh, that's wrong. And Peanut Pete seemed delightful. Oh, he was so nice. Everybody was obsessed with him. Honestly, we should bring him into more trips because it made my job so easy. Like, normally we have to go up and approach people and be like, hey, we're with draft kings and be really nice. People just come up if you got a giant peanut there.

It's a scary segment. Put it on the poll at Levitard show. Do people just come up to you if you have a giant peanut there? The ACC, I don't want to talk about Appalachian State. I don't know how you ended up there. Is there a short story? Well, we wanted to go to some group of five schools, and our friends, Hampton Farms, are based in North Carolina.

And when Peanut Pete invites you to a game, you have to go. Like, you just can't say no. And this is actually one of the better group of five atmospheres in college football. It's a lovely town, like really, really passionate fans. They care a lot. They just have a really kind of gross offense right now. So, like, the game wasn't that fun. But it was such a great experience.

We love Boone. Roll nears. Let's cover some college football here with Lucy. The ACC Louisville loses. Virginia loses. It was weird to see them lose to California and Wake Forest. What are you laughing about? Are you guys ready for Duke in the ACC championship game? Are you guys prepared for that? Five and four Duke who's just lost to Yukon, but they're four and one in conference. Are you guys ready for that? They just did lose to Yukon. She's laughing at us. Look at her. Look at her. She can't even keep it together. Mike, I think she's specific. laughing at you. Look at her. Her face is red. Yeah. Well, it's a coping mechanism because Iowa season ended on a minus 39 yard safety. Don't do that. That's not how that happened. That's how the game started. What is happening in the ACC, though? What is that? Louisville is a good football team. What are they doing losing to California? Well, not to take, I mean, she can take a stab at this, but injuries. Well, I was asking her.

Yeah, but Virginia lost its quarterback, Louisville lost RB1. Lucy, can you take a stab at it? Yeah, I answered it for you. That was okay, you guys go ahead. I'm still laughing at Duke in the ACC Championship game. It is funny. They did just lose the Yukon. They literally just, and it doesn't mean anything.

It doesn't mean anything at all. Because Duke is 4 and 1 in the conference right now. Cal has a really good quarterback. Like, Cal is a weird team that you just can't seem to kill, despite that the entire universe is against Cal with the, you know, you know, getting kicked out of the pack 12, you know, obviously choosing to leave with how everything is sort of played out this offseason with like Brian Harson and it just felt like that football team was falling apart. For some reason, it always works out for them.

Louisville, yeah, it's injury issues. That's definitely the big one with Virginia, too, when you lose your starting quarterback like that is obviously going to put you in a bad situation. I do think we need to give credit to Wake Forest. This was a team that was supposed to be the worst Power 5 team this year. That was their projection. And they've been great. They're coming off a win against SMU, Virginia, like Jake Dick, has been a really good hire for that program. And they brought in as many transfers as anybody. Like so many transfers on that roster,

they've had a really good season. But yeah, the ACC is one big, giant mess. But because of this, Miami might be able to play their way back in, potentially. That's what Mike is rooting for. Mike is just watching all of football waiting for the teams that are ahead of Miami to lose. Are you willing to concede what it is that I was saying earlier in the show that a Cuban from Miami is going to end up being the Heisman frontrunner because we just saw our first Heisman moment of the season. That, I mean, wow, that's going to go down as one of the greatest catches in just college football history,

which is crazy because I think something that's going to get lost in that is two plays prior. They had one of the other greatest catches of the entire season. What Fernando Mendoza has done in Indiana has just been remarkable. It's kind of what I don't know if Miami was like active with him in the portal, but they certainly should have been. And yeah, that catch was crazy. And I think I want to give a quick shout out to the official who called it correctly on the spot. Like that was the most locked in I've ever seen.

Hey, he's just guessing. Come on. That's a guess. No, that was, he was locked. If you look at the image, he is locked in. He is ready to go. That was a moment where it was just like, it's, Indiana almost feels like a team of destiny now because like that was just so crazy.

Great job by Chris Cody. Head official. Yes, great job, Chris. I'm so proud of you. And obviously Penn State's having a bad year, but they're still a ridiculously talented team. And so for Indiana to show something this season that they showed in both the Iowa game and the Penn State game, that they didn't really have to show you last year, which is can they win a close game? Can they not win by 50 and come out?

They've done that against Penn State, against Iowa. This is a very, very good football team. Yeah, Fernando Mendoza, he should be the front runner for the Heisman at this point. Lucy, we've had a handful of top 25 matchups, hugely impactful in the CFP. You're headed to Athens for Texas, Georgia. You got Oklahoma playing Alabama, and you got Pittsburgh playing Notre Dame in a game that's sneaky big for the CFP. How do you see these games going? Yeah, I'm a big believer in Notre Dame, so I actually don't think that Pitt, Notre Dame's game is going to be very close.

I think Pitt has the potential to screw something up every time. Like, that's just what their season comes down to, sort of like what Louisville does. I don't see that being this one. I think Notre Dame has sort of gone under the radar just in the sense they haven't really played anybody in a couple weeks. but the issues we saw the first few weeks with their defense have been corrected. Like their defense is playing super, super well, and their offense has been great all season.

Like, I really am buying into Notre Dame. I'm not buying into Texas yet. Like, I still can't get past. Kentucky, like, beating the ever-living shit out of Florida this weekend and then reminding, like, oh, my God, Texas lost of that Florida team. Like, I just can't buy in. I can't buy into what Texas is doing.

I know that they've looked better the last few weeks. Obviously, a good one against Vanderbilt, obviously coming back against Mississippi State. I just don't believe in that right now. So I'm leaning Georgia for that one. Yeah, it's in Oklahoma, Alabama. I don't have any faith in Oklahoma either. I think their offense is stagnant.

So I do think this weekend's going to play out sort of the way we think it is. But this weekend, like this previous weekend, I feel like we lost a little bit of that spark of that juice. I think you had that in the ACC, but not elsewhere. So I wouldn't be surprised if everything goes to shit. Because who knows. Who knows? It's a beautiful sport. Lucy, I will be in Athens this weekend, too.

So I will see you guys there. Oregon. They finally beat someone of notes this past. weekend. Did they? I think so. I think they did. They beat Iowa by a couple of points. I have a bad feeling Miami fans are going to be looking back at that Oregon escape over the weekend and say that one could have been the one. Like Lucy, do we believe in Oregon at all? Well, so here's the situation. That one hurt a lot. Hurt my feelings. I posted on my Instagram story 13 times. I was so sad about it. None of you checked in with me, by the way. I do think that's a good

win because I think Iowa is despite what happened a very good team. They have three losses this season by a combined 10 points. And every single one of those losses, Iowa had the lead with two minutes left, which is devastating. And I want to throw up and cry everywhere. But I was a good football team. And I think that that win is the most impressive thing I've seen from Oregon this season, not even just because I do think I was a good team and Kinnick is a tough place to play. If you can get dragged into the slop, into the mud, and go into Kinnick Stadium and have to play the most gross, disgusting football game you've ever played in your life and come out with a win, that is a thing that teams cannot do. It's very difficult to win there. And if you play Iowa

style and you out Iowa, Iowa, I believe in you, even if it did make me sick to my stomach and I'm devastated inside and Iowa couldn't even punt that game. We couldn't even punt. It was so one thing we're supposed to be good out, we couldn't even do it. How were your friends supposed to handle a devastating defeat like that? Because you say we didn't check in on you. And when I lose a game like that, I don't want anybody texting me. I'd rather people leave me alone. In fact, I deeply appreciate anybody that doesn't text me on those weekends. I never text you because I know that about you.

I did post so many times that people were like, hey, girl, that's a lot. Is everything okay? Billy checked it. Billy was like, hey, what's going on with you? And I told him to shut up, but I knew you meant it from the heart. At Lebitard show, do you think that Lucy's analysis, everything has gone to shit, who knows, is the best analysis you've heard on college football this year? I agree. That is good.

There are three teams that I feel like I know. We'll get to that in a second, Chris. I know it's at the end of this segment. There are three teams and only three that we know to be good. You might be putting Notre Dame in that class. I think it's just Ohio State, Indiana, and Texas A&M, maybe Texas Tech. Who is your fourth? I would put Notre Dame or Texas Tech at my fourth.

That BYU win was impressive. I think BYU only had nine plays in Texas Tech territory that entire game. And it was, it looked close if you weren't watching it, but Texas Tech just wasn't, like, converting in the red zone. Like, they easily could have won that game by 60 points. They were so dominant over BYU and that. But I think, yeah, you have to look at what Texas A&M did. They didn't struggle with Missouri this weekend.

They were able, like, that's what A&M is doing well, is they're really not messing around. They did it a little bit against Arkansas, but they're winning every game they should. They have not played the most difficult SEC schedule. They've played a lot of teams that have fired their head coaches, which is about half of the SEC at this point. I think A&M you'll really be able to sort of figure out

what you're dealing with when they play Texas in the year because I think that'll be their toughest opponent of the season so far but yeah I would go Ohio State, Indiana, A&M, Notre Dame I would put Texas Tech up there I would put Oregon up there after what we saw this weekend I do think maybe Ole Miss obviously the Citadel you can't really tell much from it but obviously Georgia and Alabama duh really bold a day and go with the three undefeated's

okay but I asked her for her fourth and she gave me 10 teams I wanted you to have options All right, go ahead and do it, Chris, fine Noah, time to get in it It's Lucy's Internet Minute Okay, so the internet this week This one woman has been doing the social experiment That has pretty much set everything on fire

This lady in Kentucky has been calling local Or she's been asking people, hey, give me your church's phone number And she'll call the churches and say, hey, I have a baby that needs formula Will you help me? And it's been wild because almost all the churches have said no They were like, we're not going to help you. And she's been recording the conversations and people have been putting together spreadsheets.

So she might be changing the course of American history because this is one of the wildest social experiments I've ever seen. Why you're making a face says. I mean, what is she hoping is going to wind up coming from this? Well, she's basically just being like, she posted a video about like why she did it. She was like, I just don't want it to see like if a church would be willing to help me in this situation. So what she does is she calls a church and she plays the sound of a baby crying in the back. She's like, hi, I ran out a formula less name. My baby hasn't eaten in 12 hours. Like, is there any way you could help me with formula?

Certain churches have been like, absolutely, give us your name, your number, your address. We will, like, do everything we can. Other churches have been like, sorry, you're not a member here. We're not going to help you and you're hungry, baby. And so what I guess her sort of like motive was is one not to like shame these churches or whatever, but just to show you like, hey, what's going on? And also to be like, hey, we should all be more giving and like look at some of these great churches. like she called a mosque and they were immediately like we're going to help you. And so it's been really interesting to see how it's played out. And like some of these churches have like doubled down and be like, we're not helping you.

You don't go here. And it's been really interesting to sort of see like how it's played out and the public reaction. But it's a be a good person moment. Tax breaks, huh? Yeah, that's sort of it. I know this isn't the fun one, but it's what the internet talks about. Tax breaks. What you guys asked me to do.

Well, but Chris made it fun. And then he made that sound. And you're like, oh, cool. Hope that baby gets formula. Lucy is heading to Athens this weekend. Georgia hosts the Texas Longhorn. Zads will be there as well. Chris, thank you.
