Speaker 1: Welcome to the solid verbal. Hell that for me. I'm
Speaker 1: a man, I'm forty. I've heard so many players say, well,
Speaker 1: I want to be happy. You want to be happy
Speaker 1: for day? Edith Steak is that woof? Woof? And Dan
Speaker 1: and Tie welcome back to the solid verb of boys
Speaker 1: and girls. My name is ty Hildebrand, joining me as always.
Speaker 1: Are there still in Chicago, Illinois? My man, Dan Rubinstein?
Speaker 1: How you doing, sir? I'm good. I keep forgetting to
Speaker 1: swap out my squeaky chair. Can you hear it? I
Speaker 1: don't know if you can kind of hear it. It's
Speaker 1: not great. It's not great for audio, it's not great
Speaker 1: for video. I need to swap it out. I told
Speaker 1: you you don't need to swap it out. You just
Speaker 1: need a little w D forty. Yeah, it's true. I
Speaker 1: don't know if we have any lubricating elements. Lubricating elements
Speaker 1: in our in our house. We need to get some.
Speaker 1: This is a very very weird start to what are
Speaker 1: you talking about? Q and A show? Dan? Yeah, we
Speaker 1: love three things. We love off topics, we love college
Speaker 1: football and your mister lubrication. So how am I speaking
Speaker 1: out of turn here? This actually kind of collects everything
Speaker 1: we need to talk about, and then we have, yes,
Speaker 1: a number of college football and non college football topics
Speaker 1: to talk about on Today's Q and A show. But
Speaker 1: I think we're writing the crosshairs here, right in the
Speaker 1: cross here. Sure, whatever you say, I am tied. He

Speaker 1: that front. If you are are interested in becoming a
Speaker 1: verball or you've got a lot of new people signing
Speaker 1: up to join the teon in the dance of the
Speaker 1: college football season. Yeah, and we've got our show on Friday,
Speaker 1: which were very all years in the making. Yeah, twelve
Speaker 1: years in the making, Dan, Yeah, Okay, what is today's show?
Speaker 1: We have a Q and a show and we haven't
Speaker 1: done one in a while. We've got a bunch of
Speaker 1: good questions both. I mean, it's largely going to be
Speaker 1: about college football and the upcoming twenty twenty one season,
Speaker 1: and maybe a couple of big picture questions, but also
Speaker 1: some non college football questions because we scratch all of
Speaker 1: our itches, ty, not the easiest ones, but all of them.
Speaker 1: Let's get into it. Congratulations, Skippy, you've got mail. You've
Speaker 1: got mail on the solid verbal Dan. As often as
Speaker 1: we can, we like to pay homage to those of
Speaker 1: view verbalers out there who write in soliverble at gmail
Speaker 1: dot com. We also solicited questions across every possible platform,
Speaker 1: be it Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Reddit, plain old fashioned email. Certainly,
Speaker 1: we tapped into our verballer community out there on Patreon
Speaker 1: and in our Discord server, so a bunch of different
Speaker 1: ways that folks could get in touch with us with
Speaker 1: their questions. I'm gonna start with Will, Dan, that's Will
Speaker 1: with one L one L. Is that true? Says just
Speaker 1: one l here on the sheet, which teams in twenty
Speaker 1: twenty one do you think will look better than they
Speaker 1: actually are due to an easy schedule? And then conversely,
Speaker 1: which teams fall into the opposite category, i e. They're
Speaker 1: going to look worse than they are because of a
Speaker 1: harder schedule. So look, we have started to do some
Speaker 1: of our preseason research. We're going to be announcing at
Speaker 1: some point soon not to give too much away, when
Speaker 1: we're going to start doing our previews, because the college
Speaker 1: football season, now that we're in July, it's getting a
Speaker 1: little bit bigger in the window. So we started Danny
Speaker 1: Canell to the mix. We've not added Danny Capelt. Sorry
Speaker 1: he costs too much. We couldn't afford it. I know
Speaker 1: it's true. We started doing research, we started looking at teams.
Speaker 1: Have you started looking at schedules? I have, Yeah, especially
Speaker 1: in a couple of the conferences that we're doing early on,
Speaker 1: and it's as always fascinating to see like, well, this
Speaker 1: team isn't that good, but they could win eight, they
Speaker 1: could win nine, Like they return enough that they were
Speaker 1: only so so, But it's a schedule that really gives
Speaker 1: them a chance to sort of push up against their ceilings.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I have been looking at schedules. I have
Speaker 1: been looking at you know, better than their schedule, what
Speaker 1: have you believe or better than you know you would
Speaker 1: believe based on their record based on a really tough schedule.
Speaker 1: I mean, we've talked about Clemson with this that maybe
Speaker 1: their record will be better than their reality. Although you know,
Speaker 1: I love the ceiling of where they are at quarterback
Speaker 1: and receiver and upfront on defense, it's just after Georgia,
Speaker 1: it's a whole lot of maybe. Okay, that's one of
Speaker 1: the those teams for sure. Arkansas, Arkansas year two of
Speaker 1: Sam Himan. What a brutality, brutal schedule. So we already
Speaker 1: talked about Arkansas getting Texas in the non conference. They've
Speaker 1: also got Georgia as one of their cross conference inter
Speaker 1: divisional matchups. I believe they also have Bama and LSU
Speaker 1: on the road, which right out of the shoot, that's
Speaker 1: four losses as a starting point, I think, I guess,
Speaker 1: I mean, your Texas love is now documented, but continue.
Speaker 1: So Arkansas is one of those teams that I think
Speaker 1: falls into the category of having a really hard schedule.
Speaker 1: I know, Phil Steele just from looking at the magazine,
Speaker 1: it's somewhere in this studio for those watching on the
Speaker 1: video feed. He's pretty high on Kentucky finishing third in
Speaker 1: the SEC East, and that is due in no small
Speaker 1: part to its schedule. Eighty fourth schedule wow in FBS.
Speaker 1: So you know, they get a game against Louisvilleville Louville
Speaker 1: on the road, but for the most part their non
Speaker 1: conference schedule outside of Louisville, they've got um, They've got
Speaker 1: New Mexico State. Does he has everything right? The easiest
Speaker 1: and toughest schedules in each conference, correct, that's all laid out,
Speaker 1: go through it. Yeah, Well, I don't have this magazine
Speaker 1: in front of me. I just put couple. I have
Speaker 1: it right here, ty. Look. Easiest schedule in the Big
Speaker 1: twelve Oklahoma, Yep, they've got Nebraska. That's the big heavyweight
Speaker 1: in the early portion of their schedule. The toughest is Kansas. Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think Kansas is no matter what their schedule look like,
Speaker 1: short of it being a like a MEAC schedule or
Speaker 1: a I don't you know, a Big Sky schedule or
Speaker 1: something like that, that was going to be a tough
Speaker 1: road anyway. And you're one of a new coach with
Speaker 1: all the turnover they have. The Arizona schools are on
Speaker 1: either end of the spectrum. Arizona State with a pretty
Speaker 1: easy you know, they get BYU, but it's BYU with
Speaker 1: a new offensive coordinator and a new quarterback. And I
Speaker 1: feel like I don't have the big ten in front
Speaker 1: of me, but I feel like it was North I
Speaker 1: having Eastern, Yep, Northwestern and Perdue easiest, hardest. Yeah, Okay,
Speaker 1: so that's the Arkansas one is really unfortunate for Sam Pittman,
Speaker 1: and I think it will probably serve to detract a
Speaker 1: bit from the progress that they made last year, because
Speaker 1: they did make progress last year. Sure, it's just an
Speaker 1: impossible schedule that he's going to have to deal with.
Speaker 1: The Northwestern one is interesting to me as well, because Northwestern,
Speaker 1: again slow but steady, always finds a way to be
Speaker 1: in the mix, and with the benefit of a good schedule,
Speaker 1: they could again contend for that big ten. West. Well,
Speaker 1: I just think they're a good program. They did have
Speaker 1: a catastrophically pad offense two years ago and last year
Speaker 1: it improved to simply definitely bad. But yeah, they they
Speaker 1: can navigate it. Who's in that they have what who
Speaker 1: do they have anybody of note in there? They have
Speaker 1: Duke who is sort of dramatically changing things up on
Speaker 1: offense and moving on to a new starting quarterback and
Speaker 1: loses a few big pieces up front on that defense.
Speaker 1: So Northwestern is in a really good spot to to
Speaker 1: once again contend for the West. Will by the way,
Speaker 1: is a verboler fi ver baller on our night Patreon
Speaker 1: forballers dot com. Okay, let's go to Pundevil pun Devil,
Speaker 1: also another verballerballers dot com. Yes, what is your favorite
Speaker 1: mascot name? I'm saying, what is your favorite mascot name?
Speaker 1: Like their actual first name? Okay, so like not necessarily
Speaker 1: the falcon, the way, the buffalo, the green wave is
Speaker 1: a popular one, The green Wave. I don't and I
Speaker 1: don't want like you to say, like, you know, the whatever,
Speaker 1: the Stanford Tree, although I don't know if the tree
Speaker 1: actually is named like Edgar or something like that, but
Speaker 1: O great, I can't imagine. Is it just the tree?
Speaker 1: That's a very Standford thing to do. If there's a
Speaker 1: name for it, I have never heard it. It's always
Speaker 1: just been referred to as the tree. What would be
Speaker 1: a good name for the tree. If that tree is
Speaker 1: simply not named and it's just the tree, now, you
Speaker 1: have to remember it dances around in wacky ways, it
Speaker 1: has wacky googly eyes, so it needs a name befitting
Speaker 1: of its presence. If you named it Conifer, it sounds
Speaker 1: a little bit like Lucifer, which gives Stanford more of
Speaker 1: an edge than you'd expect. And also it sounds like
Speaker 1: the tree. Yeah. Yeah. That also it sounds like a
Speaker 1: you know, an arrested development Parks and rec kind of combination.
Speaker 1: Non existent name conifer. But I don't believe it's a
Speaker 1: conifer tree. I don't know what kind of tree it is,
Speaker 1: so regardless, that's the first thing that came to mind.
Speaker 1: I guess it would have to be a Conifer tree,
Speaker 1: right in order to be named Conifer. Yeah, something like uh.
Speaker 1: I actually like Edgar a lot Edgar. Edgar covers the
Speaker 1: spectrum for me of either very serious or very silly.
Speaker 1: Maybe a Walter, maybe a maybe a Leslie. Not a
Speaker 1: lot of tree names out there. To be honest with you,
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a Douglas fir, but if
Speaker 1: it were, it would be a you know, Doug is
Speaker 1: easy Doug. Yeah, Doug would Beezy my favorite actual name
Speaker 1: for a mascot. Uh, it's a tie to me. I
Speaker 1: love the name Ramsy's o, the you know, the the
Speaker 1: Longhorned Sheep whatever you know, kind of uh tar heel
Speaker 1: mascot wise. Yeah, and Ralphie obviously, Ralphie is a wonderful name.
Speaker 1: Ralphie is up there for me. I have a sauce
Speaker 1: spot for Bucky Badger, Monkey b Ainger, Bucky b Edger. Okay,
Speaker 1: I just think that is the coolest mascot to look
Speaker 1: at outside of all the almost one name though, Like
Speaker 1: do you like Bevo? I like Bevo. Bev's fine, but
Speaker 1: I'm just saying in general for me, outside of the
Speaker 1: live mascots mm hmm, the very clearly fake, big headed mascots.
Speaker 1: For me, Bucky Badger is the coolest one. And I
Speaker 1: just love the name Bucky Badger, So that's always been
Speaker 1: the answer for me. I like the sort of creativity
Speaker 1: of naming George's bulldog Uga after Uga, right, and got
Speaker 1: an espen quality to it. Right. It's kind of controversial
Speaker 1: among Oregon fans, but technically speaking, it's just the duck,
Speaker 1: which is very boring. But I believe it was when
Speaker 1: Oregon had a live duck mascot. The duck's name was Puddles,
Speaker 1: and that has carried over and I think that's adorable
Speaker 1: and I'm if people want to call the duck Puddles,
Speaker 1: I'm thrilled to go along with that. So that's my
Speaker 1: asterisk here. Let's go to Joseph, also another verballer, Okay,
Speaker 1: assemble your dream college football Saturday, not related to your
Speaker 1: own team in any way, and he highlights a few
Speaker 1: possibilities here can be a unique college football venue or
Speaker 1: college town. A question on this is coming up here also,
Speaker 1: maybe by Joseph, the same Joseph. I don't know, but
Speaker 1: this is a great question that I'm going to ask next.
Speaker 1: Hold that in mind. Also could pertain to matchup tailgating
Speaker 1: food a celebrity fan to watch the game with Dan.
Speaker 1: You have been is It's no secret in this show
Speaker 1: you have been to many more college football venues than me.
Speaker 1: So with the benefit of that experience, what does your
Speaker 1: dream college football Saturday not related to Oregon now right?
Speaker 1: What does that look like for you? So I cannot choose? Okay,
Speaker 1: so of the locales both in terms of town, city
Speaker 1: and tailgate and atmosphere of a game. I mean I
Speaker 1: do have favorites. I mean I loved going to Baton
Speaker 1: Rouge and seeing a game at Death Valley SYLSU South Carolina,
Speaker 1: which was not a mark matchup, but it was an
Speaker 1: insanely fun time. Nonetheless, Now Baton Rouge as a town,
Speaker 1: I think it's a perfectly good town. Does it stand
Speaker 1: out in college towns to me? Not necessarily, but you
Speaker 1: do have the New Orleans ability, so there's that element,
Speaker 1: but that's not the college town. God, It'd be hard
Speaker 1: to turn away Madison at this point for me because
Speaker 1: I like the food, I like the town, I like
Speaker 1: the atmosphere of the game. It's you know, there's an
Speaker 1: electricity there that I do love. But if I had
Speaker 1: to put everything together, man, I don't know, see, and
Speaker 1: that's going up and down the list of places I've been, Like,
Speaker 1: I love ann Arbor, but like the Michigan in game experience.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's just that that's where it falls
Speaker 1: off a little bit. For me. What about you, Well,
Speaker 1: now you love Athens. I do love Athens. I'm not
Speaker 1: going to go Athens with this because I've been there,
Speaker 1: but I the best I can do here is tell
Speaker 1: you the elements of college football that I'm intrigued by
Speaker 1: and have yet to experience. So, for example, I am
Speaker 1: very intrigued by some sort of pregame tailgating experience that
Speaker 1: involves boats. That's Tennessee Washington standout. And I've done both. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Tennessee and Washington standout, So you would tell you could
Speaker 1: tell me which one's better, But I am intrigued by
Speaker 1: that first and foremost. I ate better Before a Washington game,
Speaker 1: the local seafood people were grilling up fish and making
Speaker 1: fish tacos, and I think there was some sort of
Speaker 1: oyster situation that was great. That was legitimately a great
Speaker 1: eating experience for me outside of I think it was
Speaker 1: a Washington Oregon game two thousand and seven, so that
Speaker 1: was wonderful. So I would recommend that. But the Tennessee
Speaker 1: the Vall Navy is great too, and that is a
Speaker 1: Meland stadium is an overwhelming stadium experience. Now are you
Speaker 1: going to get that electricity for current Ish Tennessee matching
Speaker 1: up in a big game. I don't know. I don't know,
Speaker 1: so that's takes away something about it. But I think
Speaker 1: if if Washington lives up to their hype and ceiling
Speaker 1: this season as a top fifteen ish team. I think
Speaker 1: you would have a really good time. It's a loud stadium.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've spent time in Seattle, have you? No, No,
Speaker 1: I've been a college town. I've been to Portland and
Speaker 1: never been the site. Seattle's great. You can eat well,
Speaker 1: you can explore, there's different neighborhoods. It's on the water.
Speaker 1: You want to go. There's like different islands you can visit.
Speaker 1: You can see orcas certain parts of the year. To me,
Speaker 1: that's that's a big positive in a college town orca
Speaker 1: options options all right, So let's say Washington just by happenstance.
Speaker 1: But the boat thing, to me is interesting as a
Speaker 1: tailgating exercise in terms of which I would love to
Speaker 1: tailgate in a kackaboose at South Carolina. I think Columbia
Speaker 1: isn't crazy attractive to me. Let me move on to matchup,
Speaker 1: I'd say, okay, pretty much any big time rivalry, So
Speaker 1: give me Ohio State Michigan. I don't know. I mean
Speaker 1: that's the rivalry to end all rivalries in college sports,
Speaker 1: maybe in sports in general. I mean it it's fine.
Speaker 1: So if i'm picking, I'll just pick a rivalry. I
Speaker 1: don't really have a proclivity towards any one particular matchup.
Speaker 1: Tailgating food. Tailgating food's interesting to me. It's interesting to me.
Speaker 1: Maybe not as interesting to me as it is to you.
Speaker 1: You're the foodie of the group. But no, but you're
Speaker 1: I'm interested in food, am I am intrigued by having
Speaker 1: tacos outside of a college football game? Sure, I've never
Speaker 1: done that at a Penn State game or a Notre
Speaker 1: Dame game. To be perfectly honest with you, great tailgate
Speaker 1: food handheld can grill. Also anyone who does Poe Boys.
Speaker 1: So maybe that drives me more towards the South Southwest.
Speaker 1: I don't know what it's not a big tailgate food
Speaker 1: though maybe I'm wrong on that, just throwing I see
Speaker 1: a lot of When I went to Baton Rouge, and
Speaker 1: I've been to I mean, I've been to a lot
Speaker 1: of plays in the SEC, but especially Baton Rouge, which
Speaker 1: I would assume Louisiana is most associated with Poe Boys
Speaker 1: and New Orleans and everything. Uh, it was much more
Speaker 1: giant pots of different stews and different options in terms
Speaker 1: of royal crap oil right dumping out, Well, it's more
Speaker 1: shrimp to me. I don't know, cross, but I don't
Speaker 1: know if crawfish is fully in season in the fall.
Speaker 1: I don't believe it is. But yeah, that's what I
Speaker 1: associated big pots, cauldron type situations and it was freaking amazing.
Speaker 1: But I think I think your answer should be lsu Bama,
Speaker 1: lse Ole miss something like that in Death Valley and
Speaker 1: then the final one here celebrity fan to watch a
Speaker 1: game with. Now you go a thousand directions here, right,
Speaker 1: we're biased towards McConaughey. He was on the show. I
Speaker 1: don't know what it did, like walk us through he
Speaker 1: walked us through his ideal Texas football weekend. He did.
Speaker 1: We asked him specifically about that. And so for my money,
Speaker 1: he came on the show outside of Lex Steel And
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think what other celebrities we've had on
Speaker 1: the showcanaughey is clearly the most famous person that we've
Speaker 1: had on the show. So for me, it's got to
Speaker 1: be had Ralph Russo on. We have had Ralph on Okay,
Speaker 1: So don't just say McConaughey without fully considering the breadth
Speaker 1: of options. Stu Mandel. We've had Stu on too. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't have a celebrity. I mean McConaughey
Speaker 1: would be fun. That'd be ridiculous. Let's say the Big
Speaker 1: twelve tie. Chris wants to know big picture thoughts on
Speaker 1: Kansas State heading into the season, and I think he
Speaker 1: went on to ask about a possible hot seat for
Speaker 1: Chris Climb and I'm gonna say no. Yeah, I'm definitely
Speaker 1: going to say no to that because I do think
Speaker 1: the early returns are promising. Not his fault that Will
Speaker 1: Howard had to step in last year, and you know,
Speaker 1: the record certainly indicated the falloff at quarterback between he
Speaker 1: and Skyler Thompson. My big big picture thoughts on k
Speaker 1: State is they need to get the defense in order.
Speaker 1: They brought in some promising transfers. We hope Skyler Thompson's healthy,
Speaker 1: and if Skyler Thompson and that offense are able to
Speaker 1: look like they did at times together, we should see
Speaker 1: a ridiculously entertaining and productive douce Vaughn. Now what develops
Speaker 1: a round douce vont to, you know, take away some
Speaker 1: of that gravity. I don't know if it's Malik Knowles.
Speaker 1: I don't know who it is who had kind of
Speaker 1: a disappointing year last year. That's what I'm curious about.
Speaker 1: On offense, the schedule is I believe, and I had
Speaker 1: it in front of me earlier. It's really tough early on,
Speaker 1: and especially in terms of quarterbacks consecutively. It was like,
Speaker 1: you know, Brock Party and Spencer Rattler, Spencer Sanders if
Speaker 1: he reaches his potential like a bunch of those guys
Speaker 1: early on, and then the back half is pretty nice
Speaker 1: in terms of quarterback matchups. So I would say eight
Speaker 1: wins is relatively realistic if they are going to return
Speaker 1: to the you know, not regrest, but progress to the
Speaker 1: mean in terms of injury luck. So you know, it
Speaker 1: was it was an unfortunate twenty twenty for k State
Speaker 1: in terms of all of the like numbers issues they
Speaker 1: had because of health and safety protocols in Skyler Thompson.
Speaker 1: So I think they are going to return to where
Speaker 1: they should be in terms of availability and just luck.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I see them as an eight and four programmer.
Speaker 1: Eight eight wins is totally doable with this schedule. The
Speaker 1: other thing about K State's schedule is that they open
Speaker 1: with Stanford neutral syche game, oh bodyclock game right, like
Speaker 1: an eleven am local kick. Yeah, yep, yep, eleven am
Speaker 1: local kick. I play it in Arlington, and we have
Speaker 1: been pretty public that. You have been way more public
Speaker 1: than I have about your Stanford distained. Maybe I'm being
Speaker 1: a staying harm but you're not a Stanford SR. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're not a Stanford fan. You're not a fan of
Speaker 1: this iteration of Stanford football. Let's say going to the
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one season, that's a that's an interesting matchup
Speaker 1: for k State. Stanford's got some acclaim. You beat Stanford
Speaker 1: out of the shoot it puts k State a little
Speaker 1: bit more in the conversation right off the off the bat.
Speaker 1: Two very winnable games after that against Southern Illinois and
Speaker 1: nov maybe startling. Illinois did beat North Dakota State in
Speaker 1: February TI they beat North Dakota State, but also Southern
Speaker 1: Illinois has that that DNA in them. They have the
Speaker 1: antibodies tie. Chris crime Climan is the North Dakota State
Speaker 1: a Dakota State I get, but possibly off to a
Speaker 1: three and zh start before you get to the real
Speaker 1: teeth of that schedule. Which is Oklahoma State, Oklahoma a
Speaker 1: bye week, and then Iowa State. Sure, so nonetheless, you
Speaker 1: look at the schedule, you could you could find eight
Speaker 1: wins here. So I think I think I'm with you.
Speaker 1: They had the number one rate at all things, you know,
Speaker 1: being not great for k State in terms of numbers
Speaker 1: and their bad luck last year. I think I saw
Speaker 1: that their defensive line was the number one havoc filled
Speaker 1: line in college fotball last year, obviously in large part
Speaker 1: to Wyatt ubi Hau, who is no longer there. He's
Speaker 1: I think he was drafted by the Bengals, so uh
Speaker 1: production to be replaced for sure. But yeah, I think
Speaker 1: they have a nice bounce back here because even when
Speaker 1: Will Howard was struggling at times, they were in I
Speaker 1: think it was the Baylor in Oklahoma State games, so
Speaker 1: they had a shot at games, even though they finished
Speaker 1: pretty unexceptionally last year. Alrighty Dan, let's go to Let's
Speaker 1: go to Bert. Let's go to Bart all the way
Speaker 1: at the bottom of the dock. What atom Bart? Is
Speaker 1: TCU a dark horse Big twelve contender Flora's yours? No
Speaker 1: they're not. That's oh man, can you can you carve
Speaker 1: out a path for me. Can I carve out a path?
Speaker 1: I can pull up their schedule and we can try
Speaker 1: to carve out a path. I cannot in good faith
Speaker 1: sit here before the verballer hood and come up with
Speaker 1: any scenario in which Oklahoma does not win the Big Twelve.
Speaker 1: Oklahoma is loaded, Really, they are loaded this year. They
Speaker 1: have the best offensive line in college football, maybe the
Speaker 1: best quarterback in college football. Do you think so? I guess.
Speaker 1: I mean the transfer situation is nice for them. Ohio
Speaker 1: State's tackles, but they've got so much coming back. Their
Speaker 1: defense presumably should be just a little bit better. And
Speaker 1: like I've said time and again with Oklahoma, the defense
Speaker 1: does not need to be Alabama. The defense needs to
Speaker 1: be marginally better, marginally better, marginally better, just a little
Speaker 1: bit better. They improved really impressively last year. If they
Speaker 1: can just continue to take some steps forward, I feel
Speaker 1: like they're in a really good spot. What I don't
Speaker 1: the question wasn't about Oklahoma. I get that. What I
Speaker 1: don't like about TCU trying to carve this path is
Speaker 1: TCU's problem over the last however many years now has
Speaker 1: been inconsistency. Now, I like Max Duggin we like Max Duggin,
Speaker 1: but there has to be consistency around him. There has
Speaker 1: to be consistency with him as well. But the offense,
Speaker 1: to me has really let me down. The defense in
Speaker 1: spots has really let me down. I just don't feel
Speaker 1: like I'm getting a level of canssistancy with TCU that
Speaker 1: I can really rely on. So the schedule, on its face,
Speaker 1: the schedule does not look like it is a murderer's
Speaker 1: row by any stretch. They play Dukine and Cal in
Speaker 1: the NORN Conference, right, and the other games that they've
Speaker 1: got here are I think spread out pretty well. They've
Speaker 1: got Texas and they've got Oklahoma, But in between the two,
Speaker 1: they've got a road tilt against Texas Tech, nice little buffer.
Speaker 1: Then they've got k State, which that game's on the road,
Speaker 1: but there's a buffer against West Virginia in between. Then
Speaker 1: they've got Baylor. West Virginia is a buffer that's disrespectful.
Speaker 1: Then they've got Baylor, who I don't think any of
Speaker 1: us is all that high on, but Baylor before they
Speaker 1: go on the road again against Oklahoma State. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm a grimy guy. And then Kansas before they close
Speaker 1: out the year on the road at Iowa State. So
Speaker 1: they've got adequate buffer in between those big games, which
Speaker 1: is nice for them. But they've got a road game
Speaker 1: against Iowa State, a road game against Oklahoma State, a
Speaker 1: road game again Kansas State, a road game against Oklahoma
Speaker 1: and that's pretty tough, Dan, It's pretty tough to emerge
Speaker 1: unscathed from all those big time road games. So for
Speaker 1: my money, no, nobody's asking them for that. But then
Speaker 1: we're saying dark horse candidates. So dark horse means what
Speaker 1: it means, they're winning toss up games, there's a unit
Speaker 1: or two that's much better than expected, or they have
Speaker 1: incredible injury luck and other teams don't. So we're talking
Speaker 1: about things need to happen. This needs to be what
Speaker 1: is it called like a Rube Goldberg machine in the
Speaker 1: Big Twelve. It's where one team something catastrophic happens to them,
Speaker 1: and that'd begets something else weirdly to another team. Like
Speaker 1: if all of the quarterbacks in the room at Big
Speaker 1: Twelve media days, if suddenly, like a bunch of spiders
Speaker 1: crawl out of the wall and sting every quarterback other
Speaker 1: than Max dug In. Right, we're having a conversation unless
Speaker 1: those spiders are radioactive and they have spider Man powers.
Speaker 1: So I, you know, I think things. There needs to
Speaker 1: be some sort of weird word a path for TCU
Speaker 1: that they keep getting teams with backup quarterbacks so they
Speaker 1: keep like weather're talking about here, We're talking about real,
Speaker 1: true universal weirdness that affects everybody. But TCU. No, the
Speaker 1: answer is no. The answer is no. If it's not Oklahoma,
Speaker 1: if it's not Iowa State, if it's not Texas, if
Speaker 1: it's not Oklahoma State, right, it's not happening. It's not happening.
Speaker 1: So I like TCU. You know, I always kind of
Speaker 1: I get to this stage in mid July every year
Speaker 1: and I start looking at TCU with that twinkle in
Speaker 1: my eyeburt. I still have the twinkle. I still have it.
Speaker 1: I always come back to TCU, no matter how much
Speaker 1: I don't want to, and I like them, I really do,
Speaker 1: not this much. There's got to be a limit to it,
Speaker 1: that this is my limit. There has to be some
Speaker 1: sort of pop in the passing game to open things
Speaker 1: up for the run game. There just has to be.
Speaker 1: There has to be somebody on the outside, and maybe
Speaker 1: we are just that. Maybe a name is just not
Speaker 1: popping into our heads right now. But that passing game
Speaker 1: needs to improve from bad to above average, which is
Speaker 1: a tough ask with the same quarterback and no especially
Speaker 1: talented receiver transferring in or offensive line. Like, there needs
Speaker 1: to be some indicator right now to us for us
Speaker 1: to feel optimistic. But I think, look, you look at
Speaker 1: their schedule last year, and they won what their final
Speaker 1: three games. I mean, they trounced Louisiana Attack whatever, but
Speaker 1: you know, beating State is something. Beating Oklahoma State the
Speaker 1: way that they did, it's just I remember the Max
Speaker 1: dug and pass at West Virginia. It was just like,
Speaker 1: how can I have faith in a team who passes
Speaker 1: like that? And I think he just through like an awful,
Speaker 1: awful misfire on a wide, wide open player in the
Speaker 1: end zone from like eleven yards out. So I think
Speaker 1: they can win the losable games. You win some more
Speaker 1: toss up games it was close against. I'm looking at
Speaker 1: their schedule last you know, they lost to k State,
Speaker 1: they lost to Iowa State early, and I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's one of those teams that can bounce back, But personally,
Speaker 1: I'd like it to see more new personnel being a
Speaker 1: reason why. Rocco says, what is more likely to happen
Speaker 1: Justin Fooente who getting fired after going four and eight,
Speaker 1: or Fuente leaving for Oklahoma State after flucking his way
Speaker 1: into a nine win season. Just I think it was
Speaker 1: the former. In Virginia Tech four and eight, explain, I mean,
Speaker 1: their schedule is not terrible, so there's good reason to
Speaker 1: believe that. You know, they won't go four and eight.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, man, I think Braxton Burmeister
Speaker 1: is okay. But this was supposed to be Justin Fwente's strength,
Speaker 1: pushing the ball downfield an interesting, difficult pass game to
Speaker 1: defend like he had at Memphis, and they haven't found quarterbacks,
Speaker 1: they haven't found receivers, they haven't developed a system to
Speaker 1: consistently get that. And it looked like Hendon Hooker was
Speaker 1: that quarterback for stretches and now he's gone. Khalil Herbert
Speaker 1: was the guy responsible for adding the pop to that
Speaker 1: offense last year, and it's a really nice offensive line
Speaker 1: last year. I just it's hard to see now their
Speaker 1: schedule splits are nice, right. I don't have it in
Speaker 1: front of me, but I remember looking at it when
Speaker 1: we were research when I was researching the ACC and
Speaker 1: they open with North Carolina, which I guess will know
Speaker 1: a lot more about Virginia Tech after that game. But
Speaker 1: I think after that they're home for a while and
Speaker 1: they don't play Clemson, they have notre Dame at home.
Speaker 1: I just I don't know what Virginia Tech's identity is,
Speaker 1: so the teams like that. That's the problem with an
Speaker 1: identity free team, with a team that you know they
Speaker 1: won games they were supposed to win and weren't all
Speaker 1: that competitive in other games, and not having a quarterback
Speaker 1: I feel great about. As nice as the schedule kind
Speaker 1: of appears early, I think I say four and eight
Speaker 1: more so than nine and three. The Braxton Burmeister thing
Speaker 1: is troubling to me. He completed some nice passes, but
Speaker 1: I think I rewatched some of him and the Virginia
Speaker 1: Tech offense late in the year last year, like I
Speaker 1: rewatched the Virginia game, and he hits guys if they're
Speaker 1: specifically schemed open, like if there's like a tight end delay,
Speaker 1: like the tight end chips a defensive end and then
Speaker 1: it leaks out late and is wide open. Braxenbermeiser recognizes
Speaker 1: that and hits him, there's like a wheel route that
Speaker 1: develops that there's a you know, a crazy mismatch that's
Speaker 1: anticipated great. But in terms of finding those one on
Speaker 1: one guys and or going through progressions and pushing the
Speaker 1: ball downfield, I don't think Virginia Tech's getting that from
Speaker 1: the passing game this fall. I just don't. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: he was hurt on and off throughout the course of
Speaker 1: the year last season. Last season was weird, full acknowledgment,
Speaker 1: but it was it was up and down for him.
Speaker 1: Last year. Hendon Hooker went to Tennessee. He transferred, so
Speaker 1: with Braxton Burmeister now as like the top guy. I
Speaker 1: just don't feel great about that. First off, He's been
Speaker 1: around forever, forever at this point, and it feels like
Speaker 1: if there were going to be any kind of notable improvement,
Speaker 1: we would have seen it by now. Just haven't. Right now,
Speaker 1: there's an identity crisis, and it's like, what exactly is
Speaker 1: what are they? What do they? I mean I thought
Speaker 1: there was an identity crist last year they lost their quarterback,
Speaker 1: like the I don't know. There were moments, there were
Speaker 1: promising moments, and you win, look, you win your rivalry
Speaker 1: game to end the season. Things aren't fully terrible, but
Speaker 1: with Babcock, the AD had to call a press conference
Speaker 1: to clarify that Justin funte was not being fired. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's not a good that's not a great moment to
Speaker 1: go into an off season on Georgia. Yes or no,
Speaker 1: Catherine wants to know via Instagram. Yes, yes, of course, yes,
Speaker 1: I think so. I'm a little bit worried about JT. Daniels'
Speaker 1: health just because he's a little bit snake bit and
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's a JT. Daniels thing or
Speaker 1: a universe thing that that concerns me. But there's there's
Speaker 1: so much depth all over the field up front on defense,
Speaker 1: you know, receiver should be good. I know they lost
Speaker 1: Demetrius Robertson and George Pickens got hurt, but they should
Speaker 1: be in a pretty good fire. They'll be fine. And
Speaker 1: look they're in you're common about JT. Daniels health is fine, Yeah,
Speaker 1: and totally fair. They're in a good spot though that
Speaker 1: at least they have a returning quarterback. And I know
Speaker 1: it's not going to affect Clemson in Alabama and Ohio
Speaker 1: State the way it would affect ninety percent of the
Speaker 1: other programs around the country. But it still is advantageous
Speaker 1: to bring back a quarterback who towards the end of
Speaker 1: last season was really fighting as stride. So I like
Speaker 1: that about I always like JT. Daniels. I liked him
Speaker 1: at USC the little bit we saw of him. I
Speaker 1: loved him coming over to Georgia. I love the fact
Speaker 1: that they might try to incorporate more of a vertical
Speaker 1: passing game. They wanted to at the start of last year,
Speaker 1: but Daniels wasn't healthy, so now hopefully with a full
Speaker 1: off season, hopefully they can start to accomplish some of that.
Speaker 1: From an offensive standpoint. I'm really bullsh on Georgia. I
Speaker 1: am every year, but I am especially this year. Their
Speaker 1: schedule rules, by the way I just looked it up,
Speaker 1: it's phenomenal, great, like Jim Row would say, phenomenalh nomenalull phenomenal. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they have Clemson, Yeah that's going to be difficult, but
Speaker 1: away from Athens otherwise, you know you're always going to
Speaker 1: have the Jacksonville matchup against Florida, but new Florida quarterback,
Speaker 1: and the road games at Auburn, new coach, at Vandy,
Speaker 1: new coach at Tennessee, new coach at Georgia Tech, trying desperately,
Speaker 1: trying to break through to become a bowl team. So
Speaker 1: I say Georgia, Yes, I love their lines. I mean
Speaker 1: there's a lot to love. Now, the question is can
Speaker 1: they generate a complete four quarters? Can they generate an offense?
Speaker 1: Can they figure out the firepower? Can they figure out
Speaker 1: a game plan to beat Alabama? Ever on a neutral field,
Speaker 1: away at home wherever? I don't know. That's the bar.
Speaker 1: That's the bar right now. They had a great team
Speaker 1: that are a really good team and ran into lightning
Speaker 1: in a bottle LSU. At this point they have the
Speaker 1: most promising quarterback known quantity quarterback in the conference. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: for sure. I mean we don't know what Bryce Young
Speaker 1: is going to look like. We don't know what LSU
Speaker 1: ceiling is. We don't know what Texas A and M
Speaker 1: is going to look like at quarterback. We don't know
Speaker 1: a lot of things about quarterback. But the position George
Speaker 1: is in right now year two of the Monk and era,
Speaker 1: depending on the health at receiver. Yeah, I think they
Speaker 1: should be in a fantastic place and we'll know early
Speaker 1: and whatever. The Clemson game brings about is whatever. It's
Speaker 1: still week one on a neutral field, so they've plenty
Speaker 1: of time to recover or regress. But I mean, this
Speaker 1: feels like another real terrific opportunity for Kirby Smart to
Speaker 1: take a next step. Let's go on over to amateur
Speaker 1: photog HM. I wasn't really sure how to qualify this person.
Speaker 1: I didn't understand his or her screen names. So this
Speaker 1: is where we are. What will be the most or
Speaker 1: will be the more competitive game Iowa at Iowa, Oh,
Speaker 1: Indiana at Iowa, or Miami against Bama. The more competitive
Speaker 1: game Indiana Iowa or Miami versus Bama. I believe. I
Speaker 1: believe if memory serves that the early line on that
Speaker 1: Miami Bama game was seventeen and a half points in
Speaker 1: favor of Alabama. So unless this respondent has a different
Speaker 1: definition of competitive, the answer would have to be Indiana
Speaker 1: at Iowa, right, I guess I mean the low of
Speaker 1: both Indiana, the low points of both in the Actually,
Speaker 1: three of these teams have had low points in the
Speaker 1: last year. Indiana's low point offenseively is worrisome. Now, granted
Speaker 1: that was both with and without Michael Pennix, but depending
Speaker 1: on health on Indiana's offense. I you know, I could
Speaker 1: see a situation which Indiana loses that game seventeen to three,
Speaker 1: and almost no part of that game is entertaining or competitive.
Speaker 1: I really like Indiana just holistically as a program right now,
Speaker 1: so I don't necessarily see that happening. Miami is probably
Speaker 1: a higher floor than Indiana and Iowa. We'll see though,
Speaker 1: because I just I worry more about where Indiana and
Speaker 1: Iowa at quarterback wise, Like there's a lot I really
Speaker 1: do like about Iowa, and you know, they've they've taken
Speaker 1: strides to become more creative on offense. But I I
Speaker 1: don't know if I feel phenomenal about Spencer Petros, pet
Speaker 1: Trust Petrousts, So that concerns me. I'd say, track record wise,
Speaker 1: I think Indiana I was going to be more competitive,
Speaker 1: just because I don't see either one of those offenses
Speaker 1: running away. Where Alabama's ceiling with that line, with that
Speaker 1: stable of backs, so much of another promising crop of
Speaker 1: receivers and Bryce Young. Yeah, it's probably Alabama Miami right now.
Speaker 1: But that being said from an entertainment standpoint, from a
Speaker 1: TV product standpoint, the answer is Miami in Alabama Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the more entertaining matchup. Yeah, but may not be
Speaker 1: as it could be a blowout. That game in all
Speaker 1: likelihood will be over by start of the third quarter.
Speaker 1: And we're still talking about a Miami team that really
Speaker 1: disappeared offensively for stretches last year despite having dear King,
Speaker 1: a Miami team that lost by forty that just completely
Speaker 1: ran out of gas. Now this is Week one, but
Speaker 1: they lost by forty ish against North Carolina, and so
Speaker 1: you know, they lose some talented defensive linemen, but there
Speaker 1: are guys back on that defense that are really impressive.
Speaker 1: And we saw Derek King, we sell Mike Harley. There's
Speaker 1: their pieces to really like, but man to do it
Speaker 1: for four quarters against Alabama week one, and Alabama has
Speaker 1: this sort of even though they're winning national championships, they
Speaker 1: also come out of the gate pretty strong in these games.
Speaker 1: So no, yeah, that's just the reality. I hope d R.
Speaker 1: King really like flashes knee wise like that he has
Speaker 1: fully recovered and is recuperated. Let's go back to this
Speaker 1: question that I teased earlier from Joseph Okay, what are
Speaker 1: some unorthodox venues we could play college football games at,
Speaker 1: perhaps with cool backdrops. Not even stadiums, just venues where
Speaker 1: you can put a makeshift field like they did in
Speaker 1: Tahoe with the rink. I'm thinking the National Mall with
Speaker 1: the monuments or a corner with ten out west the
Speaker 1: mountains could also be amazing. Dan, do you have any
Speaker 1: thoughts on this? The salt flats where they try to
Speaker 1: go really fast in cars, I guess that's not grass though.
Speaker 1: I mean you have horse racing venues Churchill Downs. I
Speaker 1: don't know how wide the infield is. Baseball stadiums really
Speaker 1: do it for me, especially after seeing when they tried
Speaker 1: to play what was it, Illinois Northwestern at Wrigley and
Speaker 1: how close the end zone was Wall. Yeah. Yeah, those
Speaker 1: always scare me a little bit. The international ones where
Speaker 1: they play in soccer or football stadiums, they're fine. You know,
Speaker 1: they've played what in Australia, they've played in Ireland. Those
Speaker 1: don't do it for me. In terms of non traditional
Speaker 1: venues they played. They played some NFL games and I
Speaker 1: want to say it was the Giants against the Dolphins
Speaker 1: at Wembley and this is one of the early games
Speaker 1: where they didn't switch out the turf and so guys
Speaker 1: were out there pretty much on skates, trying to trying
Speaker 1: to run around on the turf and just tearing it
Speaker 1: to shreds. That was kind of interesting, not from an
Speaker 1: injury standpoint, but I was trying to look at this
Speaker 1: from the standpoint of like, where's a really cool plateau
Speaker 1: somewhere in the world, Like can we do this? Can
Speaker 1: we do this somewhere in South America in the Andes
Speaker 1: on a big plateau where we have a cool backdrop?
Speaker 1: Maybe not the best stadium about the Grand Canyon. Set
Speaker 1: up a field, it makes your field. They wheel a
Speaker 1: feel into the University of Phoenix Stadium or whatever that's
Speaker 1: called now Glendale. So drive that field to a Grand
Speaker 1: Canyon adjacent. What about they have that glass overhang somewhere
Speaker 1: at the Grand Canyon, don't they. Yeah, that's not I'm
Speaker 1: not okay with that where you can kind of see
Speaker 1: through the bottom, Like that would be cool. What about
Speaker 1: like Pebble Beach? I thought, a yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: if you have enough flat territory that you could just
Speaker 1: build a field, right, you would have to do some grading,
Speaker 1: But in terms of like beachside cliffs, ocean side cliffs,
Speaker 1: Pebble would be cool. For something like that. It's already
Speaker 1: an iconic venue, so if you could do something like
Speaker 1: along the cliffs there, that would be pretty damn cool.
Speaker 1: It's something like I'm trying to think if there's any
Speaker 1: desert you know, to have like the Desert Escape with
Speaker 1: the palm trees something like that. I don't know if
Speaker 1: there's a play you know, Palm Springs or Vegas or
Speaker 1: something like that. Kind of such a weird question that
Speaker 1: it kind of like specific venue. I mean national there's
Speaker 1: a bunch of national parks that'll be interesting, but it's
Speaker 1: you know, playing a game in Yosemite or something like
Speaker 1: the feasibility Yeah, in terms of venues like where people
Speaker 1: already gather, right, So big wide open grassy air, like
Speaker 1: a game in Central Park, right, that's something Yeah, no, sure, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't know what you do for stands, makeshift stands,
Speaker 1: but like you need wide open grass. That's it. I
Speaker 1: don't know, what a weird question. All right, let's get
Speaker 1: to We got a couple of minutes left here. Let's
Speaker 1: let's get to some of our non college football questions.
Speaker 1: What's the best way to eat on a road trip
Speaker 1: from Luke overbolor do you pack sandwiches. Do you take
Speaker 1: long breaks for sit down restaurants, do you embrace fast food?
Speaker 1: What do you do? I think it depends where you are.
Speaker 1: I'd think it depends who you're with, it depends how
Speaker 1: hungry you are. I would definitely make an effort to
Speaker 1: try as much regional food as possible, So whether that's
Speaker 1: sit down, whether it's you know, burger shacks, I think
Speaker 1: the shack experience. Like if I were to go on
Speaker 1: a road trip and I was I wasn't in a rush,
Speaker 1: I think I would look up where the like local
Speaker 1: iconic burger shacks or burrito or taco set, you know,
Speaker 1: something like that, where you're eating outside, something that's been
Speaker 1: there since like nineteen sixty three. I snack food doesn't
Speaker 1: do it as much for me. I'm, you know, happy
Speaker 1: to go grocery shopping before you leave and load up
Speaker 1: on what you want. But I think I would make
Speaker 1: an effort to research the sort of road food places
Speaker 1: along the way. I don't care about eating really well,
Speaker 1: I don't care about going to steakhouses, but like if
Speaker 1: I'm driving up the coast somewhere in New England or
Speaker 1: the West Coast or in the Gulf or something like that,
Speaker 1: and the like, oh man, you need to go to
Speaker 1: this like fried clamshack. Okay, I'm going to do that.
Speaker 1: I am steering into the shack lifestyle on a road
Speaker 1: trip in terms of food, steering into the shack lifestyle
Speaker 1: and also steering into the immediacy, the urgency, the emergency
Speaker 1: of a potential bathroom break on the road. Yeah, because
Speaker 1: you just don't know what you're going to get, right.
Speaker 1: The only thing is, though, if you go greasy as
Speaker 1: a priority, you're going to slow down your road trip.
Speaker 1: You're going to slow down. Might have some issues, you
Speaker 1: may have some issues. And so for that reason, and
Speaker 1: really that reason only, I have no problem with regional food.
Speaker 1: But there is something cool about the low rent nature
Speaker 1: of like let's stop at wah wah, Let's get a
Speaker 1: couple hogis. Let's load up the cooler with some ice packs.
Speaker 1: We'll stop at some place along the side of the road,
Speaker 1: one of the rest stops. What have you, Pop open
Speaker 1: the cooler, eat our hogies, and we'll continue on. It's
Speaker 1: a lot quicker in most cases, it's a lot cheaper.
Speaker 1: It's definitely not as exciting. But my only point there
Speaker 1: is jacks are pretty quick though, I mean shacks are quick.
Speaker 1: Shacks are quick, for sure, Gonna be waiting for a
Speaker 1: long time for a Burgram Fries or something in the
Speaker 1: middle of like who knows where I'm route sixty six
Speaker 1: or something. No, of course not. But my only point
Speaker 1: is if you're into the regional food thing, eat the
Speaker 1: regional food once you get to your destination, because then
Speaker 1: you're not on the open road. Then you don't have
Speaker 1: to worry about the whole bathroom thing. Sure, Like, just
Speaker 1: get to a place where you're okay, I'm good. I
Speaker 1: know I'm going to sleep tonight. I've got accommodations nearby.
Speaker 1: That's when you take the food. What is your most
Speaker 1: common minimum three hour drive, like when you go to
Speaker 1: the Jersey Shore. What does that drive for you, like
Speaker 1: in the last like decade or something. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: it's it's two two and a half, okay, So do
Speaker 1: you have places that you love stopping that you don't
Speaker 1: normally get to go because it's only on that route?
Speaker 1: Not really, No, I mean, if I'm if I'm looking
Speaker 1: at where I've gone about three hours away, I'd say
Speaker 1: the Jersey Shore is about to to two and a half.
Speaker 1: I've gone down to like Ocean City, Maryland, Rehobeth, Delaware,
Speaker 1: that's about three three and a half. Yep, Baltimore is
Speaker 1: about three ish from here. And you don't have any
Speaker 1: sort of food traditions on any of those, not really.
Speaker 1: DC is about three penn states two and a half.
Speaker 1: That's you know, going a different, different direction. So no,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't really have any food. Will you
Speaker 1: shot before? Will you like? Will you get that? Wah wah?
Speaker 1: Sub is that? Just? Is there a food that you
Speaker 1: look forward to, like, Oh, I'm well on the road,
Speaker 1: this is what I'm gonna have on on my person.
Speaker 1: It's all it's it's always got to be some sort
Speaker 1: of HOGI yeah for sure. Okay, so you're will you
Speaker 1: eat it as you drive or just during a pit stop?
Speaker 1: As a pit stop? Yeah yeah, okay yeah? Hot or
Speaker 1: cold HOGI you know, I go either way. I just
Speaker 1: I like it toasted. I don't care if it's cold
Speaker 1: and toasted. Bit could dry out the bread if you
Speaker 1: let it go too long. It could. No, it's fair,
Speaker 1: but I prefer to have the whole. And they give
Speaker 1: you the option at Wawa if you want the whole
Speaker 1: sandwich toasted after they after they build the sandwich right
Speaker 1: or just the bread. I always go everything because then
Speaker 1: it melts the cheese. Really gives you a different experience.
Speaker 1: The original tie the guy Mike, who I hosted my
Speaker 1: college radio show with. He is from Boise and we
Speaker 1: would drive home, which was, you know, eight or nine
Speaker 1: hours from Eugene, because I mean there are two different ways,
Speaker 1: one of which you go through Portland. One of itch
Speaker 1: is more direct, but you got to go through mountains
Speaker 1: or something. He and his dad would get like whatever
Speaker 1: the like catering KFC size pack of popcorn chicken was.
Speaker 1: They had a dipping station on the console, the dashboard,
Speaker 1: whatever area of it was an older a cord or
Speaker 1: something like that, and they found a way to really
Speaker 1: secure I think it was like at the at least
Speaker 1: at the time the popcorn chicken. I think it was KFC.
Speaker 1: Maybe it was somebody else, a fast food place to
Speaker 1: secure the giant it would come in like one of
Speaker 1: those movie popcorn basket type situations, and that they would
Speaker 1: just go to town on like a one and eighty
Speaker 1: piece por chicken container, which I think is a great
Speaker 1: road food if you can secure and have the coordination
Speaker 1: to dip as you drive. Yeah, no, it's a good one.
Speaker 1: I mean any any related field of fried chicken, nuggets, tendos, whatever,
Speaker 1: I think lends itself pretty well. So this is like
Speaker 1: that answer underrated question from Luke. Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: Anything else that stands out to you? I mean, we
Speaker 1: have a bunch of other college football questions. Well, God
Speaker 1: dump it jump in. Jeremy wants to know with the
Speaker 1: SEC going ESPN ABC soon, what is the next move
Speaker 1: for CBS. Do they go after the Big ten rights?
Speaker 1: Do they after Big ten rights? Do they have a
Speaker 1: relationship with it? They do have a relationship. My English
Speaker 1: is off today with a Big ten in basketball. I
Speaker 1: don't know. It seems like the PAC twelve is probably
Speaker 1: the move in terms of of eventually available and needing
Speaker 1: more exposure i e. Network television and not super duper
Speaker 1: duper duper duper hard to find premium cable, So PAC
Speaker 1: twelve could be that move. NBC could expand its offerings,
Speaker 1: but NBC Sports is sort of with the they dissolve
Speaker 1: the sports network, right, NBC Sports Network no longer exists,
Speaker 1: so they're not and hockey has gone back to ESPN.
Speaker 1: I believe so I know what NBC's investment is like
Speaker 1: and more broadly speaking in sports, but CBS is still
Speaker 1: a brand that's that's pretty heavily associated with college football.
Speaker 1: So maybe the PAC twelve is the move there, I
Speaker 1: mean the Big Ten. I mean, they just signed that
Speaker 1: new deal a few years ago, so I don't know
Speaker 1: when that actually comes up, but that is a premium, premium,
Speaker 1: premium price tag because Fox badly wanted to get into
Speaker 1: college football more than they were, and they ponied up.
Speaker 1: And obviously you see like the Big Noon Saturday and
Speaker 1: they're you know, putting their those huge, huge, Big Ten
Speaker 1: games at noon. So CBS is gonna have to pony up,
Speaker 1: and the PAC twelve might be a deal. Maybe you
Speaker 1: buy in early, thinking, okay, whoever, USC maybe hires after
Speaker 1: Clay Helton and you have Mario Christabaul and Oregon rolling
Speaker 1: the way that they have, and maybe you think Jimmy
Speaker 1: Lake is going to be really good, and maybe you
Speaker 1: think David Shaw is going to bounce back and her
Speaker 1: Edwards is going to survive or as was building up
Speaker 1: a monster. So maybe it's a buy in early and
Speaker 1: CBS gets a deal in the same way they had
Speaker 1: to deal with the SEC for quite some time. Does
Speaker 1: this mean that Nessler and Gary Danielson are going to
Speaker 1: have to call like UCLA football. It's a good question.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Is that where we're headed with this?
Speaker 1: I assume I think it was established that Joe Tess
Speaker 1: is going to become the voice of the SEC came
Speaker 1: of the week at espnabies. What is Danielson going to
Speaker 1: do if he can't go full SEC? I don't know,
Speaker 1: collect a paycheck and go to Pacady. Yes, I guess
Speaker 1: it's you could do. I don't necessarily think he I
Speaker 1: don't think any of these guys have like super duper
Speaker 1: long term deals so they can even just hop somewhere
Speaker 1: else all right where else you want to go? Go ahead,
Speaker 1: you pick the best twenty twenty one group of five
Speaker 1: team TIEGE, which I really hope is a reference to
Speaker 1: being named TJ. Who is that team? I mean clearly
Speaker 1: Cincinnati to me. Yeah, But here's what I noticed ty
Speaker 1: about the group of five this year, A really really
Speaker 1: deep roster of impressive quarterbacks. Group of five teams. I
Speaker 1: don't know if you've paid that much attention to group
Speaker 1: of five quarterbacks obviously, Desmond Ritter is getting NFL attention
Speaker 1: and leading Cincinnati, who I still feel really good about.
Speaker 1: Especially I mean, even with the loss of Marcus Freeman
Speaker 1: to Notre Dame, a coordinator on defense upfront, Cincinnati should
Speaker 1: be strong once again. But I wrote down the list
Speaker 1: of names right here. So you have Caleb Allibie and
Speaker 1: Dustin I want to call him Dusty, but Dustin Crumb
Speaker 1: in the mac rayce McCalls back at Coastal Carolina, you
Speaker 1: have I lost my place. I believe Nick Starkle's back
Speaker 1: at San Jose States. Dylan Gabriel should be healthy and
Speaker 1: good to go, and now has Gus mels On in
Speaker 1: charge of that offense, so I assume we are thinking
Speaker 1: pretty good things there for sure. Jake Hayner was pretty
Speaker 1: promising in year one the Washington transfer to Fresno State.
Speaker 1: I just I don't know. Laane Hatcher was good. Malik
Speaker 1: Willis is getting NFL attention, and he had a really
Speaker 1: interesting year at Liberty impressive year at Liberty, So I
Speaker 1: don't know. I think it's a surprisingly deep Carson strong.
Speaker 1: I haven't even mentioned that Nevada has got a couple
Speaker 1: of really strong no pun intended, but it's true. Receivers
Speaker 1: and Nevada. So no, that to me is one of
Speaker 1: the more interesting elements because we we've talked about looking
Speaker 1: at the top of college football and like, oh, it
Speaker 1: doesn't seem like a huge year for quarterbacks. You're like, Okay,
Speaker 1: Spencer Ratler and Sam Howell, like they're not necessarily arousing
Speaker 1: our quarterback instincts right now, are they? Like they're good,
Speaker 1: They're very good, But it's not like we we have
Speaker 1: known killers across the sport like in certain years we do.
Speaker 1: So I think you can look at the group of
Speaker 1: five for some really entertaining games because there's experienced, talented
Speaker 1: quarterbacks all over the place. Yeah, the Grays and McCall
Speaker 1: thing will be interesting to watch, you know. I like
Speaker 1: Holt Naylor's see you, I do like him. I don't
Speaker 1: care what you say. Now, Grayson McCall a year after
Speaker 1: kind of the big coming out party will be interesting
Speaker 1: to watch see which direction coastal heads. Levi Lewis twenty
Speaker 1: twenty one. Levi Lewis and he is the face of
Speaker 1: Eat Lafayette. Great with nil stuff all right for Levi Lewis,
Speaker 1: Let's go to Tall Rico. Let's do it. Who I
Speaker 1: like this one. Which summer Olympic sport do you think you,
Speaker 1: in your prime could have at least outperformed the very
Speaker 1: lowest performers, assuming you had the necessary prep time. This
Speaker 1: is a very entire life. This is very difficult. So
Speaker 1: what does prep time mean? I have no idea. I
Speaker 1: have no idea. So essentially, if you have four years
Speaker 1: to prepare, if you have four years to prepare, which
Speaker 1: of the looking, gosh, there are countless sports here, which
Speaker 1: of these do you think you could at least outperform
Speaker 1: the worst? I think this has to be a team sport,
Speaker 1: don't you. It has to be some sort of team
Speaker 1: sport where you or I could be effectively buried in
Speaker 1: right field, like in baseball or softball, right, I guess.
Speaker 1: But what sport is that? It'd be basely if I
Speaker 1: replaced Kevin Durant with you, Well, it's not basketball. It's
Speaker 1: clearly the joke of the Olympics. But you could bury
Speaker 1: somebody in right field in baseball and you could get
Speaker 1: away with it. You'd strike out, you'd be a mess,
Speaker 1: but the team could still go on and be pretty
Speaker 1: successful even with a deadbeat and right field. He's saying
Speaker 1: out per the lowest performers. In this situation, you would
Speaker 1: be the absolute lowest performer in the baseball Olympics. So
Speaker 1: you're not outperforming the lowest I was thinking team sport.
Speaker 1: I was thinking it had to be a team sport
Speaker 1: because you can know where you got outperform the worst
Speaker 1: person at the Olympics. You have to outperform them. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's got to be somebody worse in right field, right,
Speaker 1: My answer is racewalking. My answer is racewalking. I think
Speaker 1: if I dedicated my life to it. I'm six' one
Speaker 1: one seventy four. ISH i don't have especially long, legs
Speaker 1: WHICH i imagine you need to you gotta. HAVE i don't
Speaker 1: have any hip, issues WHICH i think that's where you
Speaker 1: generate a lot of the power in. Racewalking, okay beyond,
Speaker 1: THAT i would be scared to jump off any platform
Speaker 1: of any sort of, height so diving is. OUT i
Speaker 1: don't have any sort of dexterity for, gymnastics, swimming, fencing
Speaker 1: nothing like. THAT i could even approach the lowest PERFORMER
Speaker 1: i lost to you a table. TENNIS i can't, SKATEBOARD
Speaker 1: i can't shoot. GOLF i would be the absolute worst field.
Speaker 1: Hockey the problem is even the stuff that we're good,
Speaker 1: at we would still be the. Worst. YEAH i don't
Speaker 1: actually don't even THINK i. Would is there men's field
Speaker 1: hockey in The. OLYMPICS i have no. Idea where do
Speaker 1: you find? Racewalking by the, Way i'm looking for some
Speaker 1: of these that no longer an. Event it's within track and.
Speaker 1: FIELD i have no. Idea i'm looking to try and
Speaker 1: find a full roster of the, events AND i do
Speaker 1: not see. Racewalking racewalking is, yeah it's let's see who's. Qualified,
Speaker 1: yeah there's a twenty k and a fifty. K fifty
Speaker 1: k yeah, Right oh my. God the world record for
Speaker 1: racewalking and a fifty k is three and a half
Speaker 1: hours of. Powerwalking that's thirty one mile stand a fifty. K,
Speaker 1: yeah it's a long. Time oh the normal, again if
Speaker 1: you gave me four years to dedicate my life to,
Speaker 1: IT a normal, person just at a normal, pace does
Speaker 1: a mile in twenty, minutes, right just a normal. Walk
Speaker 1: you're three and a half hours thirty one. Miles so
Speaker 1: what are those ten minute? Miles ten minute? MILES i, yes,
Speaker 1: YEAH i was at The olympic trials in two thousand
Speaker 1: and eight and watched the Racewalking olympic. Trials those, first
Speaker 1: those are. Athletes, yeah those are full on, athletes and
Speaker 1: they are. Moving it's sometimes harder to walk really quickly
Speaker 1: than just flat out. Right it does it does damage
Speaker 1: on the. Hips i'm just SAYING i have the best
Speaker 1: chance of not being the lowest performer at. Racewalking i'm.
Speaker 1: LOOKING i think it's incredibly, skilled in difficult AND i
Speaker 1: respect everybody who does it on An olympic. Level BUT
Speaker 1: i think that's the. Close, like what AM i going
Speaker 1: to start? Cycling what about? Shooting, NO i don't have
Speaker 1: the eye for. It, no these are these are people
Speaker 1: who have been shooting rifles their entire. Lives is croquet
Speaker 1: An olympic? Event no? Canoeingestrian it wasn't the at the
Speaker 1: nineteen Hundred Summer. Olympics, No i'm looking at twenty twenty
Speaker 1: one artistic. Swimming, NO i don't THINK i have the
Speaker 1: core strength of the leg strength to even in three four.
Speaker 1: YEARS i THINK i have the attitude and enthusiasm four.
Speaker 1: YEARS i don't THINK i have the athleticism four, years
Speaker 1: four years of Equestrian what is? Okay i've asked this
Speaker 1: question BEFORE i just think in real life to people
Speaker 1: in offices and, stuff what is the or do you
Speaker 1: have the list of? EVENTS i have a list of,
Speaker 1: sports SO i. DON'T i still don't see. Racewalking but
Speaker 1: look at, here look Up olympic track and field. Events
Speaker 1: olympic track and field. Events, like you're not gonna throw
Speaker 1: the javelin. Impressively you're not gonna throw a shot put, impressively,
Speaker 1: Right so what is the event you would? Least? Like?
Speaker 1: What what do You which event do you think would
Speaker 1: be the most personally embarrassing for you on the international
Speaker 1: stage to wake up out of a dead sleep and
Speaker 1: be expected to perform on international. Television i'm a podcast
Speaker 1: had to do. It you have to attempt the. Event
Speaker 1: i'm a. Podcaster so probably. Weightlifting let's be. HONEST i
Speaker 1: see weightlifting is really, binary, Right, well for for you AND,
Speaker 1: i weightlifting is more you either lifted or you. Don't
Speaker 1: so you would get there trying to deadlift or whatever
Speaker 1: you're doing and you just wouldn't be able to lift,
Speaker 1: it and you're, like well The american was unable to
Speaker 1: even lift, it and it would be, like well look at,
Speaker 1: Him like that's to be, expected, RIGHT i think it's floor,
Speaker 1: exercise floor, exercise it's a floor, exercise OR i think
Speaker 1: it's the high platform. Dive the high platform dive would
Speaker 1: be a huge belly flop and we'd probably knock ourselves,
Speaker 1: out but you knock yourself, Out but also you'd look
Speaker 1: like a spaz on the way. Down you just look
Speaker 1: like a complete spaz. Flailing and think about the eight
Speaker 1: k cameras that are on your face right before the, jump,
Speaker 1: right and you're just out of a dead, sleep expected
Speaker 1: to perform like you, Would you wouldn't even be on
Speaker 1: camera running the hundred, Right the cameras would bypass you,
Speaker 1: immediately and you'd see the replay that The american was
Speaker 1: sluggish and you could at least at least you could
Speaker 1: fake a hamstring injury halfway through a, sprint. Right but,
Speaker 1: Yeah jim nass like the floor exercise where you're expected
Speaker 1: to be creative and have a routine like you wouldn't embarrass. Yourself,
Speaker 1: golfing you would be, bad but you wouldn't embarrass. Yourself
Speaker 1: fencing your face isn't, seen you'd lose. Immediately. Whatever swimming
Speaker 1: you just get, killed but you can, swim so you
Speaker 1: would just be enapt you wouldn't be embarrassing. Man but,
Speaker 1: YEAH i think the high, dive super high, platform the
Speaker 1: high dive would Be i'd be, terrified wouldn't you be?
Speaker 1: Terrified off skateboarding would be rough if you can't? Skateboard
Speaker 1: can You skatebourfing would be rough if you can't. Surf
Speaker 1: but it's just that to me is just, like, well
Speaker 1: IMMEDIATELY i can't do. It you would have to attempt
Speaker 1: something like what if you had to do the pommel horse?
Speaker 1: Tie that would be? Problematic, yeah NOW i ask you,
Speaker 1: This so this is the follow up question to this
Speaker 1: hypothetical for years and years. Ago would you rather wake
Speaker 1: up out of a dead sleep and be expected to
Speaker 1: perform on the high platform or you, know or whatever
Speaker 1: gymnastics event that you would have to, Attempt or would
Speaker 1: you want to wake up out of a dead sleep
Speaker 1: and be in front of a microphone expected to sing
Speaker 1: the national anthem at The Super? BOWL i? Think or
Speaker 1: host The, Oscars like you would have to go out
Speaker 1: and host The. OSCARS i think you could wing The.
Speaker 1: Oscars you? Could, YEAH i MEAN i would rather do
Speaker 1: each of the last two than rather wake up out
Speaker 1: of a dead sleep and have to sing the national
Speaker 1: anthem at The Super. Bowl, sure, sure, Absolutely so you'd
Speaker 1: rather be you'd rather be embarrassed on an emotional level
Speaker 1: than a physical. LEVEL i think. So. YEAH i think
Speaker 1: that's What i'm going, for because we've at least been
Speaker 1: in front of, microphones in front of. Camp maybe not
Speaker 1: on that, stage but, no, no, no we've at least
Speaker 1: experienced something of what that's. Like, right a pommel, horse
Speaker 1: a high platform. Dive now not rings the even, bars forget, it,
Speaker 1: man forget. IT i wouldn't even know what to. DO i.
Speaker 1: KNOW i think about you sprinting, up oh to the,
Speaker 1: horse to The oh my. God have you ever seen
Speaker 1: the one where the guy like tries to do the
Speaker 1: vault and just takes one in the. Chest, YES i,
Speaker 1: have and you see the dust kind of fly off.
Speaker 1: Them it's real. ROUGH i would not want to do
Speaker 1: that because then you risk real bodily, harm LIKE i
Speaker 1: could deal with emotional by the way they're boxing, exists forget. It,
Speaker 1: no in The. Olympics but that here's the. Thing you
Speaker 1: AND i are both reasonably, Athletic, yes, yeah reasonably. Athletic
Speaker 1: reasonably we're not elite. Athletes we're not the worsty fifth
Speaker 1: percentile of our age. Group, sure we're reasonably, athletic mm,
Speaker 1: hmm and we would still be bottom of a barrel
Speaker 1: for any and All olympic. Events of, course at least
Speaker 1: you could wing the. Oscars at least you could at
Speaker 1: least we know the words to the national, anthem, right
Speaker 1: and you get. It you've seen enough oscars where you
Speaker 1: wake up out of a dead sleep and you're in
Speaker 1: a tuxedo and you're walking to a. Microphone you can
Speaker 1: bs your way, through like we all celebrate the majesty of.
Speaker 1: Film we're here To like you. Could you could make
Speaker 1: the piece. Together you can see certain you just sort
Speaker 1: of work the room and you're, like, okay There's Dame
Speaker 1: Judy dench and There's Jack nicholson, whatever and you don't
Speaker 1: have to be, funny but you could just, like let's give.
Speaker 1: Them you would just have a disastrous but efficient. Opening
Speaker 1: as long as you are not, disastrous you're. Fine it's
Speaker 1: like doing a wedding, speech, right, right as long as
Speaker 1: it's not notably, bad it's. Fine it's. Fine so you
Speaker 1: could get away with doing. That just don't be super.
Speaker 1: Controversial you could get away with doing. That but there's
Speaker 1: really nowhere to hide if you're out there on The
Speaker 1: olympic stage unless it's right, field which is WHY i
Speaker 1: said baseball put me in Right do you think do
Speaker 1: you think your lega see as an embarrassing performer would
Speaker 1: be more pronounced if you immediately got knocked, out like
Speaker 1: as a judo participant here mcnely. Style, yes you're just
Speaker 1: immediately knocked, out just like boom knocked. Out or do
Speaker 1: you think it's worse if you are attempting a high
Speaker 1: dive and you're bad but you're not? Unconscious? WOW i
Speaker 1: MEAN i think YOU i think you are less memorable
Speaker 1: just being knocked out right. Away, oh you're definitely less
Speaker 1: memorable because there was something for you. Physically it's definitely
Speaker 1: worse for you, physically especially if you don't know how
Speaker 1: to take a. Punch but there were a couple guys
Speaker 1: in the Last olympics AND i forget where from who
Speaker 1: were horrible off the highest, platform terrible and like really
Speaker 1: hurt themselves of course trying to jump off that. Thing so,
Speaker 1: NO i, mean, look it happens in real, boxing in real,
Speaker 1: mma where people who are the favorites take a punch
Speaker 1: quickly and go down. Quickly that's a. Thing so you
Speaker 1: could get away with. That the high dive lives in infamy.
Speaker 1: FOREVER i would also, ADD i would add that wearing
Speaker 1: what you would need to wear on the high, dive
Speaker 1: wearing what you would need to wear as a, gymnast
Speaker 1: it's not. Super it's not super forgiving esthetically right, now that's.
Speaker 1: True that's also very. True where is a tuxedo's? Fine
Speaker 1: what is it called a ghee that you'd be fighting?
Speaker 1: In as a judo? Participant who asked this question Tal,
Speaker 1: regan this is a terrific. Question, WELL i took it
Speaker 1: to a different, place but it is a good. QUESTION
Speaker 1: i don't know if the question you know what you?
Speaker 1: Here it? Is, okay they're, Sailing, well that's another. One
Speaker 1: could you could you think you could become the second
Speaker 1: worst sailing participant if given three or four. Years now
Speaker 1: these are. Lifers what about all? Right so hold? On
Speaker 1: what about the dude or the man or woman to
Speaker 1: be politically, correct that sits the person who's like in
Speaker 1: charge of the boat as they're, rowing who just yells
Speaker 1: out the. Commands m, H i could Do coxson. TYPE
Speaker 1: i don't know what it. IS i could do. That
Speaker 1: if you gave me enough time and told me what
Speaker 1: not to, DO i could do. THAT i could conduct
Speaker 1: that person gets a, medal they're on the. Team, no
Speaker 1: but What i'm saying, IS i mean this quite what
Speaker 1: this question is asking is, like wouldn't you then be
Speaker 1: the worst cox in? There i'm saying we need to
Speaker 1: have your coxson abilities at least outranks somebody. Else this
Speaker 1: is very. COMPLICATED i was thinking team, sports so you
Speaker 1: could just hide me. Somewhere, SURE i, mean you would
Speaker 1: be best probably what a, golf, golfer baseball in terms
Speaker 1: of like the possible version of. Yourself AND i would
Speaker 1: be the best at, tennis AND i don't know how,
Speaker 1: Many like is there a country with a particularly bad
Speaker 1: history of? Golfers like is there a country that's sending
Speaker 1: somebody to participate In olympic golf that can't break a? Hundred?
Speaker 1: No maybe there's no. Chance, no there have been some
Speaker 1: really bad participants that get in for whatever. REASON i
Speaker 1: JUST i. Don't and also there are the home countries get, in,
Speaker 1: Right so there's that element to. Things those guys are
Speaker 1: playing from the, tips they're playing in at a hard.
Speaker 1: Course it's not the LOCAL muni you put me out,
Speaker 1: There i'm not breaking. Ninety there's no way there's somebody out.
Speaker 1: There everybody out there is going to be sub ninety for.
Speaker 1: Sure i'll look up the Last olympics the golf. COURSE
Speaker 1: i think golf you are prone to having full breakdowns me. Especially,
Speaker 1: yeah Well i'm not saying, You i'm saying one is
Speaker 1: so all, right that's all we have time. For this
Speaker 1: question went a little bit longer than. Expected this is
Speaker 1: a terrific. Question, though terrific. Question thank, you Find sir
