Starting point is 00:00:00 You're listening to Giraffe King's Network. This is the Don Levertor Show with the Stugat's Podcast. We're here. Mm-hmm. We did it, family. We did. I don't think I've ever called anyone a family, including my family. Might have only been...
Starting point is 00:00:27 It would have only been more strange if you said, fam. Probably. Or Brian Kelly style, family, because... We're here, fam. Boudreau, Kelly. All of us. Mm-hmm. Listeners.
Starting point is 00:00:40 Yep. Us. Well, I guess we're not all here, but we're, you know what I mean. We're all here in spirit. Yeah, sort of. We made it, Billy. We made it. Yep. Fun. Well, I guess we're not all here, but we're, you know what I mean. We're all here in spirit. Yeah, sort of. We made it, Billy. We made it. Yeah, fun two weeks.
Starting point is 00:00:47 Two weeks. Yep. Well, you say fun two weeks. So I'm one big. I'm exhausted. Are you? I'm tired. But fun two weeks.
Starting point is 00:00:55 Okay. Yeah. Well, I'm wondering how we should we do grades? Is it appropriate to do grades on how these two weeks went? Now, how does this work? Well, we need to do it. What's the grading school? I grade myself. Well, Stu got to give us all grades?
Starting point is 00:01:06 Like, should we grade each other? Should we like, you know when you'd eat in class, when you would like switch papers to people? Oh, I love doing that. So maybe you two give each other grades, me and Lucy give each other grades, and these two give each other grades.
Starting point is 00:01:15 So when you did that in school, did you do it with a friend of yours? Of course. So you guys cheat it. Of course. So we would always write with pencil, right? So we would know, okay okay if you pass over my paper What I'll do is all erase yours and then write it really good your passing right and pencil that you wrote with too
Starting point is 00:01:30 It's like it's the same mechanical pencil like the same big pencil Yeah, and then we just erase it really quick write the new answer and then teacher never wondered about different handwriting And while you're you, so it works. Or it didn't. You're here. No, Tony. No way of knowing if you won or not. I guess the teacher didn't care.
Starting point is 00:01:51 They're just like, whatever, dude, I don't know. Yeah. Thinking of like my teachers now, when I was a kid, like being my age, I'd seem to be like, oh, whatever, let's keep moving. Yeah. So how do we want to do the great? Salute to teachers, by the way.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Pay them. Pay them. Pay them some of your teachers. Oh, that's right. Yes, should we have someone from the outside great salute to teachers by the way, pay them the Yes, should we have someone from the outside Great as terrible teachers if we're gonna be totally loose you like that idea or we'll teachers out there terrible But it's not their fault. So I can't give it great. I'll give everyone an a can we just do like overall? No, but I'm thinking one at a time. That's annoying. I'm thinking we have someone from outside. Maybe Carl Oh, right and he comes in and gives us individual grades and team grades.
Starting point is 00:02:26 What do you think? Fine, Taylor's fine. Why, because he's gonna give you a better grade? Why would Taylor give you a better? I have no idea. Taylor, let's go with Taylor. I'm not gonna argue with you. I just, we also have the bucket of death to do here.
Starting point is 00:02:38 Oh, I want grades though. So Taylor, are we good with Taylor? You want individual grades? Yes. Okay. You want team grades. No, I don't know I give us an A you give us an A as a team so we're letting the students grade the papers Well like Tony used to do him and his friend you see right yeah, too to see I
Starting point is 00:02:55 Think we get a B minus B minus really? Well you weren't here yesterday. I just a big day for us Yeah, see plus I listen No, I'm, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just, I just terms of, can I balance this? No, no. How about this? How about this on the front end? I will say this, I think not their fault. I think the Reese Davis show that we did with Dan or Laskow, we're sure that we've done in the two weeks. And it's not their fault.
Starting point is 00:03:35 Circumstances created that. Who's fault? Name names, Billy. No, I'm not naming names, but we thought, well, things have changed, things get a little hectic, and we're planning on having multiple hours, and then it turned into one hour, so we kind of crammed things.
Starting point is 00:03:48 We had to cancel guests at the last minute. So like, our plan wasn't just to have guests that day. What I'll say. Yes. So it's very defensive of that day. Be mine. No, I'll just say, I'll say that. I thought that day was fun.
Starting point is 00:03:58 No. It was a nice school. We did a great job doing a show that day. It just turned into two long interviews. All right, fine. You know what, see this turned into two long interviews. That was in our pool. You know what, two guys is right, B plus. Yeah, that's better. B plus.
Starting point is 00:04:08 That's better. B, R, B. I'll take it, I'll take a B. Just give it like an 85. I'll take a B. There's lots of moving parts when you have two different locations. What is a B nowadays? Back in my day, it was 80, 89.
Starting point is 00:04:19 That's still a B. No, no, no, no. No B. The whole spectrum of the B column. A B was an 80 to 84 for me. Yeah, I had a seven point scale. No, like 84 to 89. And A was like a 93 to 100, and I think a B was an 85 to 92.
Starting point is 00:04:36 Oh, that's bullshit, man. That sucked. That sucked. No, that was not a B. That was not a B. What's a name minus? At one point, they changed it to like 10 points. Really, scales, I think, maybe here in Florida, I don't know how can an how can a 90 not be an a- because it was a B?
Starting point is 00:04:49 Nah bullshit. No, it should be a minus. You're out there having a minus or B plus anything minus anything 90 you're talking about being a something Atta boy right? We got you great. I like being on the high end of a letter. Okay, you did I don't want to be the Scraps of you'd rather have a B plus in an A-minus the toss away a I like being on the high end of a letter. Okay. You did. I don't want to be the scraps of that. I don't want to be the toss away A. I want to be the king of the B. No, I want to be on the lower end of the highest. Then I'm telling you about expectations.
Starting point is 00:05:13 If you want to live an A life and then you're in that minus space, that's not a good place to live. Be in that B life and then crush it. So you would rather a B plus over an A minus. I'd rather be the best B on the planet than just some A that no one's gonna ever remember. Let's be real, you're a C minus C. You're a C plus student. I was a be the best B on the planet than just some a that no one's gonna ever remember You know see mine I see plus student. I was a B guy a lot of bees in my life. I'm not saying it critically I was a C student to I was a super student. Yeah, that's surprising. Well, I mean early on I was a better student
Starting point is 00:05:35 But I was a solid beat look like I was a B minus guy really low end of the bees That's why I strive for that I strive for that that B plus always was Oh man loosey straight a's I was a I wasn't straight a's That's why I strive for that. I strive for that. That B plus always was, oh man. I was in Strait A's, but I was a very good student, and my hometown is where Krispy Kreme is from. So, yeah, so when you would go, when you'd nug your report card, you would go to Krispy Kreme and for every A,
Starting point is 00:06:07 they would give you a donut. I love that. Oh, I love that. So I got a lot of donuts. It's sensitive, right? Yeah, I was a great student. Oh my God. I was MVP of the multiplication tournament.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Right. Lot of diabetes. But that's such a great point. Like, Kris, if someone was dangling, Krispy Kreme donuts in front of you, what do you think your GPA would have been? Ha ha ha ha. What's you think your GPA would have been? What's nine what's nine times seven?
Starting point is 00:06:30 63 63 Seems like I'm faster. What we did She said she did like a multi-shoot one. I was yeah in third grade multiplication tournament MVP We did not win the championship, but I was the best player sometimes five you were the MVP. Can we do this one? You were the MVP. Can we do this? What? If you do anything, it multiples of seven. I got it because I've been footballed and brain of my brain. We made the draw teams.
Starting point is 00:06:47 So I could run into draw teams. We need to go to the bucket. Six times eight. Billy has a good idea. 48. So just quick math for Lucy, you want to do while we're doing this? Yeah. Okay. Mike Flentess.
Starting point is 00:06:55 I mean, Reaper, come in here. We have to do the bucket of death. Wow. Spoiler alert. What? I mean, what if the Reaper grades us as we all pick? Great. Per write it down. The Reaper on a piece of paper.
Starting point is 00:07:08 I don't know how to pencil. If his friend has it. Get some scrap paper, let the Reaper write down the grades, and someone reveal us what the grades are after the segment. If that's okay. Are we doing a quick math with Lucy? It seems like we're not doing a pocket of that. 14 times 14, so I don't know what we're doing.
Starting point is 00:07:23 We only went up to 12. Oh. Yeah. That's easy. He's actually dizzy. I it seems like we're not 14 times 14 so I don't know we only went up to 12 oh Actually, he's easy I mean You are the So right We're going to the bucket. I'm gonna look around here and let's see. Bum, bum, bum. I'd like to say the audience, there's a controversy that's happening that we're gonna,
Starting point is 00:07:54 there's an investigation of foot right now that we're going to maybe put together next week. Really? Okay, good. Yeah, what happened? Yeah, something happened in the bucket of death last week that I've been informed was maybe a bit of mouth-feasons some funny business some funny business. That's right But let me remain everyone. I rule the my the bucket of death is brought to you by KFC's new hot and spicy wings Order an eight piece of new hot and spicy wings for 499 at participating KFC's today
Starting point is 00:08:22 It's finger-looking good. Wow. All right, in my hand, I've got the Seattle Seahawks helmet, and they are a minus four favorite at home against a PJ Walker lead Cleveland Brown. David. I'm worried because Cleveland's defense is really, really good, and this is ripe for the Seahawks to blow this game out. Is the shot out? The shot's out, PJ Walker's in.
Starting point is 00:08:41 David. But Miles Garrett's still there. Very casual Reaperaper right now just leaning on the table the guy who's well the roopers are about to go on vacate exactly yeah and absolutely leaving right now I think reapered you agree that the the day before vacation is better than the last day of vacation you don't have to say anything just now yeah I'm gonna put it back okay yeah really I don't trust five minutes on that yeah I don't trust the I don't trust five minutes on that. Yeah, I don't trust the uh, I don't trust the CX right now. Uh, oh the, oh the underdog helmet.
Starting point is 00:09:08 Underdog. I thought it was a brown for a second. Look at the underdogs, get back to us with what you're underdog pick. Yeah. Alright, you're right. Alright, I got the uh, do you think I have Vikings? They're minus one. Any new or team?

Why'd you do that? No, it's a regal! Dan Lebatard! I just heard a song that had Frank Sinatra singing from the window to the wall to the sweatshirt up off my balls. Two guts! We all heard that right?
Starting point is 00:12:41 To the sweat drops down my balls. So, what I'm saying here? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right?
Starting point is 00:12:52 We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right?
Starting point is 00:13:00 We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? We all heard that right? So, Jess and I are back with another episode version of our college football segment. Show, show, maybe. Still doesn't have a name. Honestly, I don't want any more suggestions.
Starting point is 00:13:20 I think I'm good on those. I've seen everything I need to see. It's not for you to stop suggesting things. Stop it. I agree. But we should just jump right into what James Franklin said was the two best teams in college football battling it out this weekend.
Starting point is 00:13:35 And man, was he just saying things? Was he just, he was just talking? I know for a fact that before the game, he was like, I know exactly what I'm gonna say when this ends. I'm gonna write this down. It was in the notes app. It's been there for like three weeks now.
Starting point is 00:13:51 The two best teams in College Football, it didn't look like it. It was a brutal game. Very rarely do you have such like a highly anticipated game and then you go on your Twitter feed and you see everyone just hating it. No one was having a good time. I really respect how he was like, I'm going to get ahead of the narrative because that
Starting point is 00:14:08 was two disgusting offenses playing football against one another, but I'm going to spin it as what a defensive showdown. And look, Ohio State and Penn State both have great defenses. I think Ohio State's defense in particular was incredibly impressive, but to declare it the best two teams in college football going head to head after that stinker at noon on Saturday is why this man gets paid so much money because he can convince people somehow of anything. It didn't work this time though, not on me. It's pretty much just like how he got his extension is just convincing people that he's like really great at what he does.
Starting point is 00:14:45 And it was such a James Franklin game where yes, Penn State has talent, they've recruited well, but it was the entire time. It felt like every single time Penn State got something going, James Franklin was like, I wanna stop doing that. I do not like the way that it's going. I think we're moving too much.
Starting point is 00:15:01 We can't use the defensive battle excuse anymore. He just like, I've never seen a coach so guaranteed to lose in the big games the way James Franklin is. So now Penn State fans are stuck in this like weird moment where you're like, all right, are we really happy with 10, 11 wins every year knowing that we're going to lose to Ohio State and Michigan every time, which starting next year not gonna be playing
Starting point is 00:15:22 Ohio State and Michigan every year? It's weird times in happy Valley because you're like just stuck, which I get. I get it better than anybody. Yeah, I mean, it's not a terrible place to be if you're a fan. Like you still win a lot of games. You end up in a New Year six bowl game occasionally. Although like you said, all of that's gonna change next year.
Starting point is 00:15:40 But I just thought that like it was very funny to see how James Franklin reacted when that one reporter asked him about like why don't you guys ever chuck it up and then they went into this game and finished with like a 0% tile explosive play rate, which means like basically without getting into like a analytics explanation, like they just didn't do anything. Their office just didn't do anything cool. And it was exactly why probably that reporter was asking him about it earlier this year. Like I am, I'm not like out on Penn State's quarterback through Al R. He might still be good, but like they certainly didn't give
Starting point is 00:16:19 him much to work with in this game. And he's young. Both quarterbacks are young. This was a big game for both of that. But yeah, it was just like two pretty, in pretty bad offenses. Minus Marvin Harrison Jr., who is like the best player on the field on either team's offense, which probably made the biggest difference for Ohio State in my day able to win.
Starting point is 00:16:39 So like my reaction watching this game was nobody has to feel better right now than Michigan. Even with all the signs stealing stuff, they're watching this game thinking this is going to be a cakewalk. Everything is going to be easier for us for the rest of the season. It feels like the big 10 is already in the bag for them. Unless they do have to face Iowa. Big 10 is going to be a show again.
Starting point is 00:16:56 So good luck. Well, I mean, as long as they can continue playing, and they don't get the death penalty, which I've been calling for for about a week now They should probably just have to cancel their football program there cheaters whether it's cheeseburgers or sign stealing I think Jim harbohas shown you again and again. He is not a fair guy Don't play against Michigan. Everyone should boycott their game against Michigan for the rest of the season cheaters hamburgers filming stuff on cell phones. When does it stop?
Starting point is 00:17:26 When do we say we can't take anymore of this, Michigan. You'll lead us university that cheats just like the rest of us. I gotta feel bad for the guy though that they were like, hey, go to Iowa, film the signs. Film the signs. Oh God, what a terrible assignment. I just don't like, in all seriousness, if your name's Connor Stallions,
Starting point is 00:17:44 like at least changed it to David Mustang when you're buying these tickets. Give yourself an alias. When I heard that this man's name was Connor Stallions, I was like, surely that was just the name he was using. But no, he did not use a fake name. He had a public Venmo Lucy. You have told me that you've stalked people on Venmo and been able to figure out lots
Starting point is 00:18:03 of secrets by looking at public Venmo notes. This is something that should be a no-brainer if you're committing NCAA crimes, which aren't really real crimes, but you know, whatever. I guess to some people, they still matter. I don't know where Michigan goes from here because I doubt anything will actually happen to them
Starting point is 00:18:21 because the NCAA is so useless, but people are going to just call them cheaters forever and their fans are going to be like, we didn't do anything and everyone's going to be like, yes, you did. And it's going to be like the Astros or the Patriots. And it doesn't matter because they're probably still going to win the National Championship this year because they actually are very good. And Jim Harboh is going to flirt with the NFL the entire off season and be like, look, I don't know what's going to happen to Michigan. I might as well give me nice little safety plan.
Starting point is 00:18:45 I hate it so much. Everything's definitely for Michigan. Moving on to a different game, Jeremy Tache, correctly told us that UCF would challenge Oklahoma. I was happy for him, sad for him. That was an interesting game. UCF looked really, really good.
Starting point is 00:19:01 All it came down to was Gus Malzahn being like, I'm about to do the dumbest thing possible here. When they went for it on their failed two-point conversion at the end of the game, I've never seen a dumber play call. And remember, I watch I will football every single weekend. Oklahoma should have lost that game.
Starting point is 00:19:15 UCF lost that game. It was tough. It was real tough. It was tough. Credit to Jerebear, I back in New York when I'm my little Draft King Sportsbook app and I was like, I'm taking Oklahoma in the points. And man, was that a bad bet from like the first quarter on?
Starting point is 00:19:30 But I really like you see, have defense has been pretty bad this year. They've had a pretty good run game and their quarterback was back for this game that's John Rice Pony. He's been out for the last four or five weeks, I think with a leg injury. So yeah, I mean, they looked a lot better. They're still own four in the big 12.
Starting point is 00:19:46 I haven't won a conference game yet. And Oklahoma just looks sloppy. Like, they were just letting UCF run all over them. Still, like, UCF wasn't able to run as well as they have against other teams, but like, Oklahoma's supposed to have this great defense, and they just kept letting them in this game. And like you said, came down to a two-point conversion
Starting point is 00:20:03 in that was, ooh, it was, it was a yucky, yucky one. But Oklahoma kind of squeaked by with the win after being challenged probably more in this game than they even were by Texas a few weeks ago. Like, it was really, really tense. This keeps the dream of Texas Oklahoma in the Big 12 championship game alive, which is pretty special. Um, Quinnrers has hurt thou, so that's tough, but he should be back. Yeah. Is Archmaning gonna play the season Lucy? God, I hope so.
Starting point is 00:20:31 God, I hope so. Just the idea of what that's going to do to the college football world, if Archmaning balls out, create a quarterback controversy that was never really there in the first place, injected it into my veins, especially at Texas. Those boosters are gonna be throwing even more money on the table.
Starting point is 00:20:46 I don't think he will play, but I mean, barring their Texas' backup gets hurt, obviously. But I agree with you, from a content perspective, it would be awesome. God, I hope so. I've really, really hope so. You said you lost money on Oklahoma. I lost money on Washington.
Starting point is 00:21:03 What, the actual heck? What happened? All right, so I caught the end of this game. Apparently Michael Penning's junior turned the ball over like a thousand times. I was sitting there and it was like, I took Washington like minus 28 and a half. Like that was the line.
Starting point is 00:21:18 I was like, I felt so good about it. You're both such losers. I felt so good about it too. And I had been perfect up until that point. So I was like, there's no way this doesn't happen. And then Washington was like, we're gonna lose it. We're gonna do our very best and we're gonna try to lose it. They barely snuck it out. There were like questionable calls in this one. I'm not like thinking too much into it because I do not think like Arizona states a particularly tricky team. But I feel like everyone once a year has that one game, where you're like, ooh, what went on there? Like the same time, like Georgia, when they almost
Starting point is 00:21:49 lost to Mizzou and they were the eventual national champions. Like I'm not saying that Washington's going to get there, but I'm not too worried. I'm just a little pissed about the money I lost. Yeah, I'm with you. I mean, I think if you're a North Carolina fan, we'll get to them in a second. You were like praying another team would go down into an unranked opponent to kind of take some of the pressure off. But yeah, Washington, they were able to win after what was a really ugly game for their offense. They only scored nine offensive points to ASU who has a lot worse team score more points
Starting point is 00:22:20 on them. But Arizona State has like, I think they're probably objectively the worst team in the pack 12 this year. At least from a record standpoint, I will have to double check that. But they have been like a little feisty in game. So good for them, but maybe maybe you write it off as a hangover game for Washington. Like it was a late home game after they just played or in like the game of the season so far for them. So hopefully they're able to rebound because they've got another tough stretch coming up for them.
Starting point is 00:22:50 And I think they slipped a little bit in the polls, but there's still a chunk of season left. They can make their way back up there. Yeah, I believe they have USC in two weeks, which they will, if they win that game convincingly, which they should, then I think all the questions will be done. It was just, I don't know, sometimes they always want to say it is weird, sometimes they're weird. convincingly, which they should, then I think all the questions will be done. It was just, I don't know, sometimes they always want to say this weird, sometimes they're weird.
Starting point is 00:23:08 But I guess we're always weird. We have to kind of, we have to go here now, Taylor. How are you doing currently? I was looking for a bag to put over my head before the segment. So UNC lost to Virginia as a 23 and a half point favorite. Did you put money on it? No, I know better to bet on North Carolina, but this is just the Mac Brown special.
Starting point is 00:23:30 They're a 20 point favorite against somebody every year. They're gonna lose a couple years ago, as Georgia Tech, three years ago, it was Florida State. This is just debt taxes and Mac Brown losing a game, yes, no business losing. It was so, and Virginia doesn't have an ACC win yet. I don't think they have one under Tony Elliott yet. This is an insane game for UNC due of loss.
Starting point is 00:23:52 It was immediately, they were in the top 10, and Mac Brown's like, I know what I have to do. It's time to humble the guys. We need to come back down to reality. It's insanely bad. Insanely bad. I have a question for you, Taylor. We need to come back down to reality. It's insanely bad. Insanely bad. I have a question for you, Taylor.
Starting point is 00:24:07 When you're a North Carolina fan and you know that one of these implosions will probably come, did you have a feeling this weekend that it would be against Virginia? Or were you like, no, maybe it'll be something, or maybe we won't have on this, or maybe it'll be something else. Because sometimes you're a college football fan,
Starting point is 00:24:23 you wake up in the morning, you're like, I can just tell something terrible is gonna happen to my team today. Did you have any sense this would happen? I didn't think it was gonna be Virginia at home, 23 and a half point favorite. I was already looking ahead to the Georgia Tech game because Georgia Tech going to Atlanta
Starting point is 00:24:38 has been a house of horrors for the snorkeh Carolina team. I think they're like two and 10, their last 12 trips to Atlanta, but Virginia, it was never supposed to be Virginia. I should have known something was off. The second, the game was on the CW, which by the way, great broadcasting experience on the CW.
Starting point is 00:24:56 It's really good. It's wonderful. It's wonderful. I am enjoying the CW game. They may be cursed. Like this is a second weekend in a row, and unbeaten ACC team has lost on the CW game, they may they may be cursed. Like that's this is a second weekend in a row. And unbeaten ACC team has lost on the CW. I love the like trickling of fans every week or like, wait, what? There's football on the CW. Like I was at a bar and I asked the bartender
Starting point is 00:25:14 to turn on the CW. And I think he thought I was putting on like super natural. And I was like, no, there's like North Carolina's losing to Virginia. I have to turn it on. I think the craziest thing about this game was that Virginia had the dreaded fumble into the end zone for a touchback happened to them and they still were able to win. Like, how do you win after that? That's usually like a death knelt for any team. It's like, ah, god damn it.
Starting point is 00:25:36 You gave the other team the ball back when you're about to score. This is terrible. There's no coming back from it. But no, Virginia somehow still held on to win it. I thought it was incredible. Since 1998, North Carolina is one in five as a top 10 team. Some, some teams just not built for big time college football.
Starting point is 00:25:53 And I'm starting to accept that if this North Carolina team would breakmate couldn't get over the hump, it might never happen. Well, maybe it's good that this happened so you won't be in the top 10 when you're playing Duke. Spinzone, yes. You are welcome for that. Wow. That was so sad. You're just accepting your fate.
Starting point is 00:26:09 I mean, I've been in your shoes so many times. Just watching Notre Dame lose blow-out after blow-out to Alabama and Clemson and Alabama again. It's tough to have to reckon with that, but I think it seems like you're handling it well. Yeah, Virginia tried to give him the game too, and Omar and Hampton, the ACC's leading Russia, gets five carries in the second half. He's averaging like seven yards per carry, and it's a one-score game, and we're like, nope, let's just keep airing it out with Drake May, who lucked off the entire night, and
Starting point is 00:26:40 Carolina's receivers had a bunch of drops. It was just a disaster from the start. There's a little James Franklin and everyone, you know Don Lebertard Elton John does not like performing crocodile rock, but to the point we were making I think he still does because he just knows the crowd wants to hear it. I feel like that's safe. He might be litigious, but that was such a poor imitation of the song Stugatz. We can all agree piano man my good son the crowd is the saying piano man uh... yeah but i want to hear billy jolts sing it they just let you at the end go do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do do Yeah, yeah, she wants a rack up suit. Is that what she's going for? I'm trying to avoid that. She's rocking our rock.
Starting point is 00:27:25 Make Billy Joel's piano. You got it. It's all right. This is the Don Limita show with this two cats. Well, I guess we have to talk about it. Just a little bit. Taylor was not the only one who experienced a devastating loss this weekend.
Starting point is 00:27:48 Whew. I'll give my statement. I'll give my PR. That was a very bad call. It was a bad call when it happened. It was a bad call after it when I saw all the different angles. This, not this. This, not this for the audio listeners.
Starting point is 00:28:07 One, clearly, my arm is to the side. The other, they're very different. Absolute terrible call. I think my most depressing moment of the weekend is when I was called back. There was a minute 40 on the clock and I was like, oh, we're not gonna get the 20 years. We need to score.
Starting point is 00:28:21 This game is over. And that is exactly what happened. How can you not move 20 yards? You be the eye of offense. Throw an interception instead. It's absolutely fine. It's fine. Lucy, this was one of the stupidest ways to lose a football game that I've ever seen. They came out in this game the same as they have in every other game by not scoring points, but doing stuff on defense. The under I think was what 30 point 31 points in it hit by a mile, a country mile, Lucy, but I cannot fathom this call at the end of the game. I've seen people waste smarter than me go back and forth on this for like days. I just can't like when like you said,
Starting point is 00:29:07 the arm is to the side. It's clear he's waving his own team off the ball from what I can tell. Not waving his hand over his head, like he's gonna fair catch it. I just could not believe the way that this game ended. I also love that PJ Fleck was like, nope, there's a right call.
Starting point is 00:29:23 This was this was yeah, this was a right call. And I'm, PJ, you could just, you don't have to say that. A text I got during the game was, did that save PJ Fleck? Because he had never beaten IOS since he had been there. Not having a good season. This is a Minnesota scene that is not very good. Apparently, I would team, it's not very good either. Just absolutely, just rough all around. Just not an enjoyable experience. But when you rely on defense and special teams to win your games and you can't do anything offensively, you put yourself in a position where bad calls happen and you only move the bar ball two yards and one half. That is your own fault. So can you repeat that? I'm sorry. They had how many yards and one half one two
Starting point is 00:30:07 Uno does I believe it was 12 and then I think the sack took away 10 yards, but I'm not positive on that once It doesn't matter. Yeah, once it was called back. I said I would they don't have a shot at winning this game I feel bad for Cooper DeGene. He's an elite returner. That is the second time he has saved I was asked with a credible name too. Yeah. So good.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Oh, man. I'm sorry, Lucy. But it's we talk about can we talk about Michigan again real quick just to talk about what happened at the Michigan state on the video board. This has been said by many people. So I feel like I shouldn't have to say, but I will. Don't put Hitler on your video board. This has been said by many people, so I feel like I shouldn't have to say, but I will. Don't put Hitler on your video board. Don't do it. If you're gonna play a video from YouTube, watch it first. The explanation makes sense. They put a video on the video board. It was a
Starting point is 00:30:59 trivia thing in the context of the video. Sure. I guess that's interesting trivia, although it's not even that good of a trivia question about where Hitler was born. But watch it before you put it on your jumbo tron because then someone's going to pull their phone out and take a picture of you with Hitler on your video board. And you don't want to do that. That is not right. That is not good, especially given the political climate right now. Don't put Hitler on your video board period ever end of sentence Michigan State. What a calamity of errors this season.
Starting point is 00:31:31 It is just one more reason that the rest of the Big Ten is laughing at you. Holy shit. Don't put Hitler on your video board. Another note to that, if you are making a trivia YouTube video, I would avoid the Hitler questions in general, but if you are going to have one, use an unflattering photo. Don't use a LinkedIn headshot. Use a bad photo. There was a whole lot of elements to this. Michigan say to such a good... Haven't heard that take yet.
Starting point is 00:31:56 It was a very lighting too good. It was like that. You picked a nice photo, and you shouldn't have done that. You should have picked a really bad photo. This is well So let's look ahead to this weekend is kind of a kind of let down not the best college football weekend We've had so far. We have organ Utah. It should be good Georgia, Florida Duke Louisville and then they put Colorado UCLA on prime time Which is amazing. I love it. They're like we know that Deon Sanders
Starting point is 00:32:27 which is amazing. I love it. They're like, we know that Deon Sanders is going to get better ratings than our other Pac-12 games. So we're just going to put that one on prime time. So Deon's playing on ABC against UCLA. I expect UCLA to win. They've got a really good defense. But they have had some struggles on offense. So maybe it will be interesting. I'm going to watch that one for sure. The thing with Stinks though is that the Duke and Global games and the Oregon and Utah games are at the same time. So we're going to have to do some YouTube multi viewing. I will be at the Notre Dame pit game this weekend, which is also at 3.30.
Starting point is 00:32:55 And hoping that Notre Dame doesn't get Narduzid, pit lost in a absolutely brutal fashion. I think it got overshadowed by a lot of the other carnage in the ACC this weekend, but go watch the end of the pit wake for his game, which is a discussing sentence. I can see that a Christian Bayer slide for a first down was like a pivotal play in the fourth quarter. One of the most just, I don't even say like bad play calls because like it's so subjective, like when a player starts sliding, but the entire end of the game
Starting point is 00:33:31 hinged on it and it was crazy. So you should, you should go watch that if you like watching Pit lose. I like saying Pat learned to be happy though. I love seeing him happy, but not this weekend. I want to see you happy. You're here. Yeah, he's so, when he's walking out there all confident with props and shit there's nothing better.
Starting point is 00:33:48 When he's got a prop he is at his absolute best. I'm so high. Speaking of props, we have to talk about UTSA's head coach Jeff Trailer doing a little head coaching bit with mouse traps and smashing his finger in a mouse trap. What, I don't even understand what the mouse trap was for? Like what it symbolized? Don't take the cheese.
Starting point is 00:34:14 I think it means like they're on a win streak right now. I think it means like don't get distracted. Like stay focused. Cause if you go for the cheese, you're gonna get your handsmash. I guess he went for the cheese though. I mean, I would go for the cheese too. I love a little square of Swiss, little camembert,
Starting point is 00:34:29 maybe some brie, maybe a little blue cheese, maybe some goat cheese. I just chatter him going to the team doctor bin like we have a problem. With a mouse drive on his fingers. Oh my God, I love college football coaches. I think more props should be involved everywhere we go. Blue bases, mouse traps, whatever else we got,
Starting point is 00:34:51 counter stallions, bring the props with you everywhere. I agree. This weekend though, you brought up a good point. I realized Florida, Georgia also at 3.30. This is the hell to eat now. Everything works. This is the exact same schedule. Kind of a bummer.
Starting point is 00:35:05 I am really excited for Oregon Utah though. I think that is going to be our best game of the weekend. Utah's got a really good defense. I saw them at USC this weekend, made Caleb Williams cry. Oregon? That's not good. Yeah, it's not good.
Starting point is 00:35:19 Also, anyone say he should sit out the rest of the season, be so serious right now. That's so, that would be very silly. He's so for real right now. He's not going to sit out the rest of the season and be so serious right now. That's so, that would be very silly. He's so for real right now. He's not going to sit out the rest of the season and he shouldn't do it. Feels like a big game for the Pac-12. Both have one conference loss.
Starting point is 00:35:34 Something I realized last week when I left the game and it didn't hit me till I saw Utah fans celebrating after, is like, that was the end of that rivalry. That's done now. USC and Utah are not gonna play each other every year and this is another game that we're gonna lose. That's normally pretty good. Oh man, that made me sad, Lucy.
Starting point is 00:35:52 You got to see the last one. I also, USC's playing Cal this weekend. It shouldn't be that big of a test for them, but they're on a two game losing streak. And Lincoln Riley is sick. Cliff Kingsbury is back in college football as the, like, you know, stand-in head coach for Lincoln Riley while he's sick. I don't know how long Lincoln Riley will be sick, but it seems like he's, like,
Starting point is 00:36:14 pretty ill and has to stay home. So hope he gets better soon. But Cliff Kingsbury will be back on the sideline of a college football game for the first time since he was at Texas Tech. Lucy. Kyle, I wish he was at Texas Tech. Lucy. Kyle, I wish he was better at defense because that's what they need. That's right. That's where the problem lies.
Starting point is 00:36:31 To let a pig farmer do that to you and Kyle, waiting him out here, being like, well, take our pig farmer over your Heisman win or any day. It's a shame they're not joining the big 10. It really is. And they really would fit in while I agree with you. All right. Well, we're almost done for this week. Before we go, got to give my any other kudos, Lucy. One,
Starting point is 00:36:51 one and over time, tough one against Clemson, with their backup quarterback, Davos Weenie, with the quote of the week, saying in his press conference that Clemson's team psychologist would be on suicide watch. It was funny. It was very funny. He delayed the delivery was very good. Davo can tell a joke. He has apologized since. He has said some crazy things in his day. Between that and Jeff Trailer and God's name and
Starting point is 00:37:21 Sparky, it's just been a banner week for college football. It's God I lost money on that one too. I had Clemson money line. I did it too. God damn it. God Washington Clemson and we don't have the Iowa game this week. They're on a buy. How am I supposed to make money? No wonder Half-king. So what are you gonna do about that? There is some breaking news before go, Lucy. Charlie Weiss, the former head coach of Notre Dame and Kansas of New England Patriots lore tweeted, one request moving forward, please drop the junior when discussing my son. He has earned top billing and if either of us should be tagged, just call me senior. I'm proud of him both on and off the field and he deserves number one status. Just call him coached Charlie Weiss. Thank you
Starting point is 00:38:06 What what a tweet his son Charlie Weiss Jr. the co-op uns a coordinator at Mississippi Now officially has become Charlie Weiss big day for NEPO babies everywhere So he's Charlie Weiss senior is right Charlie Weiss Jr. Probably a better coach now. He's just Charlie Weiss from now on The young one has become Charlie Weiss Jr. probably a better coach. Now he's just Charlie Weiss from now on. The young one has become Charlie Weiss. Meanwhile, Kurt Farron is going to Brian right now. I mean, I need you to take him home. It's made in a way. I know you're in your police. I really need you to get this done. Please change your name. You're bringing shame to our family. your name. You're bringing shame to our family.
