Dave, Dave is back. He was out last week, but by the way, not by choice. I didn't you, you had personal things, Dave. I didn't. I had a funeral. Yeah, you had a funeral. I didn't want to say that you had a funeral because I, like, I don't know who, you know what I mean? I wanted you to say it. So, but I responded to one guy who was like, Dave can't do this show anymore. It's like, dude, he's, he's got a funeral. Yeah. Yeah. I missed the punch. It was a, it was a week of, uh, so we made the rap video that we just dropped, took all day. We did that Monday, the smallest man Tuesday. Very good. By the way. Very good. I was waiting with bated breath for your, for your rap to start. Josh, obviously, like, Josh kept on going and he was, Josh was really good. Yeah. He kept on going and I was like, like, where, when is Dave going to pop in? Some people thought I was just going to be a background singer in it, but, uh, I'm trying to think. And then, was that Monday? We had breeders. You had a funeral. You had breeders. I, I, yeah, I, I had to fly the very next day. I had the funeral on Wednesday, the wake on Wednesday. Then, um, fly to breeders. I was all over the place, Boston, LA, San Diego, the video. So it was a busy week, but yeah, that's the only reason I miss. Ironically, it was my best week by a mile. Yeah. And you almost hit one of the greatest parlays. That parlay was brutal. That, that, I, I just got absolutely fucked by them not saying the quarterback wasn't playing. And by the way, I had to place it in Boston. So like, because I was, they don't have sports gambling in California. So I placed that thing. I placed them all individual. So those are all the bets I placed. That's why they're on the sheet. And then I, I put them together. I mean, it was a little anti-climatic because army was like the first loser, but I could sense it. I texted you Dan halfway through. I'm like, I can see where this is going. I'm going to go six and one, and I'm going to be mad. And I was, and it was like, no, who else was in South Carolina was in it. I was in it. It was no doubters. Like no doubters. Yeah. Yeah. Everybody won easily. That was Texas tech. I was, I was sick for you. I couldn't, I should have just five grand to win half a million. When you sent it to me, I should have just bet the rest of it. Like I was sitting on my couch, a fucking million. And the only losers army by a couple points because the quarterback that best played the Heisman didn't play. And they announced it like an hour before the game. And apparently he wasn't practicing all week. They usually get that info. How is that legal? Uh, your, your best friend cons texted me. He's like, I'm sorry. Like, I didn't know. It's like, who knew a lot? Nobody knew. It was like a thing on Twitter is like, where's the army quarterback? No. Yeah. The, the, the only inkling that I had was maybe two hours before, uh, someone released the under in the game that I know that I respect, but that wasn't like, they didn't take air force. They took the under and I was like, Oh, that's weird. 21 to 18. Right. And the over under move from 41 to 38. So that all happened. So when I saw the under get released, I was like, that's weird. And then like maybe an hour before I saw that he wasn't playing brutal. It was just, yeah. I mean, you were, you were in California. I will never hit a 17 parlay. You know, 90 to one, you know, did Mincy. Yeah. That speech was something. I, so we talked, we had someone from the Savannah quarterback club, uh, call into the act yesterday and he, he said that Mincy in his speech, five full minutes about the parlay. He hit five full minutes. I mean, I'm going to be honest. Maybe if I hit one like that, I do a speech, Dave, like this is a gambling show. You would talk about it here, but, but at a speech you're giving, you think you would do it? It was pretty fresh. It was pretty fresh after he hit it. But how much can you say about that for five minutes? Analyze the picks. You gave all the analysis, analyze 24 hours. If I hit a 17 parlay, if I hit mine, I'm probably working in, I don't know, for five minutes. It is speech though. I would do it. I would listen to football club. I agree with you. I would tell everyone I knew, but if I was giving a speech, I don't know if I would do five minutes on my parlay. Well, maybe he was like looking for five minutes and then it was like, boom, well, I didn't know what I was going to say. And now I do. And he was like, they were, did you see the clip where they're like, what's your best Dave Portnoy story? And his best Dave Portnoy story was when he gave you, uh, Arkansas or no NC state to win the college world. World series. And then they got canceled the COVID year. I'll tell you what, I would probably wear Savannah football club merch. Like I didn't actually like, what is it called? The Savannah, the fan of court, Savannah quarterback quarterback. So that's pretty cool on, on Monday. So cool. So cool. The one, they do have to clean up their website. Cause they have a list of all their speakers and Jerry Sandusky still listed as one of the speakers. Got to get that fixed. I said to the guy, I was like, dude, he was like, yeah, I saw that. I saw you guys talking about it. We probably should get that off there. Savannah quarterback club. Yeah. So that like, do these, these things just quarterback clubs exist in the South? Yeah. Like Brandon was saying, like there's touchdown clubs, there's quarterback clubs. They go every Monday. They have a speaker. He said, uh, there's it's $2 beers and you know, they, they raise money for like local, um, uh, youth sports. So they get like scholarships for guys. Do they have Savannah quarterback club merch? Because I'd love some, I don't know, but you Dave, look, I don't want to go. Let's send Bosco down to speak. He'd love that. Get some merch. Yeah. They're also, it's so South. It's so South. And it's, it's just a, like I, when I first saw it, what, two days ago, I was like, this is weird. Then we had the guy on the yak and I was like, this is completely normal. And I wish I was part of this. Like, I just picture like that scene and best of times, like the Savannah quarterback club is sitting down there on like metal, like auditorium chairs and the tiger runs through with paint and like, what was it all over him? Like a rival school. Yeah. It's probably like, it's like an old, it's probably in a very old building. Totally. And it'd been around since 1946. The Savannah quarterback club meeting is definitely like happening in, in, uh, what's a strange, uh, stranger things. Like that, that is going on on a set like that. Like let's have a quarterback club meeting. Yes. Yes. Um, very eighties vibes. I love it. Yeah. Uh, you looking it up, Hank? I'm just looking at the, I'm reading the bylaws. Yeah. They got bylaws. Yeah. They got bylaws. I think there's like only a hundred members or something. It shall be limited to 215 members. Yeah. Which is kind of cool. I like that. So cool. Like a big waiting list. Yeah. And there's, yeah, he said, the guy said, I don't know. He said that there's, they, they do a pretty good job of like, there's like a couple of 25 year olds, but there's, you know, like 75 year olds in it. So it goes like generations. I love it. Yeah. We need to get it. We need to, they have to have merch that, yeah, we need like little polos or something. Golf shirt. That's exactly what I was thinking. A golf shirt. It's, it's perfect for like the guys, like the three of us, not Hank. Uh, like we don't golf. It's a golf club without golf. Yes, exactly. Yeah. Right. That's what I'm looking for. I'm looking for, I'm looking for, I may just make my own. Like, I don't even know how it goes. Like Barstool, like quarterback club shirts. Just, I don't even know what it means. Just to have, I kind of like the idea of that club. Yeah. Touchdown club is a great name too. That's a good one too. Uh, all right. So how was breeders? Yeah. How was breeders? Uh, so Elio and I were getting absolutely, we had great seats. Day one was cold at Del Mar. Um, great seats, great time. I love Breeders' Cup. There were 22 races, I believe, 10 on day one, 12 on day two. We were pretty much over 20. And then we won the last two big. Fierceness, unbelievable race. I put another 50,000 on him to win because I did that at Belmont. He delivered. Fierceness ran as good a race as he could possibly run. I don't regret the bet. It was a devastating loss. Great horse race. Sierra Leone finally won. The pace was set up. That was great. And we saved the weekend by having those two races. We won like 300 grand on the last two. So probably we're going to be down 400, 500 grand. Made it breathable. I had a good day on Saturday. A lot of fun. We had a great house. Del Mar is beautiful. So, I mean, I had a great time. Del Mar is the only one I haven't been to. I need to. There were bombs the entire. Yeah. Bombs away because you have all the Euros, all these. No one knows what's going on. The race I hit, more than looks, it was the second to last race. I handicapped the fuck out of that. I don't usually do it. I was watching backtracks, and I went ham on it. So that felt good. I love it. Like, I'm done now probably with horse racing until Pegasus, which is a little sad, but I loved it. Queen Picasso sold for $1.25 million. Oh, shit. Wait, was Queen Picasso one that you owned by yourself? No, I wish. I owned a quarter of it. It was the horse that was really good. Went to Kentucky Downs, like, hurt its knee, was retired. It's a girl, so it's a breeding horse now. Oh, that's awesome. $1.25. Yeah, Breeders' Cup. I can't believe Sierra Leone won. That was. I was so confident the whole race. I was really focused on fierceness, and that's the first time fierceness has fired and lost. Like, he ran arguably the best race he's ever, ever run, and I was just watching him. I'm like, oh, he doesn't lose when he does this. They're going super fast. Rapoli, I was telling you, Dan, all-time Rapoli tweet. We can pull it up and put it in. He basically, he congratulated Sierra Leone. Congratulations, Sierra Leone. You're the best horse today. Well, he didn't say best. Congratulations, Sierra Leone, on a win, all the connections. And then 10 paragraphs about how fierceness is 1,000 times better than Sierra Leone. Like, pace set up, best race of life. He's the top. He's a two-year-old champion. He's the three-year-old champion. Very Mike Rapoli. Right, Rapoli's the best. He's such a nut. I think I, I don't know if I told this story, but he's. He's the best, worst loser of all time. Yeah, he had a tweet about, like, the state of horse racing that mentioned us. Yeah. And being like, you know, we got to embrace parts, which I agree with 100%. And he texted me and was like, hey, retweet this if you want to be a billionaire. And I was like, okay. And then he wrote back, he's like, I should have checked first. Do you want to be a billionaire? He basically, that's his sign-off to me. Basically, every time we talk, you want to be a billionaire or not. But, yeah, it, it, it was great. That was a great race. Rapoli, Rapoli's trademark move when he loses bad is just a post. Like, I'm not mad. Here's a picture of me and my daughter. Like, that's what he does every time. But you know, he's steaming. All right. What else? Well, Hank, Hank had that. Oh, yeah. Oh, Hank. I was watching. I forget where I was. I wasn't here. TV. I was just refreshing every time the Bengals were in there. It was the Bengals. No, it was the Cardinals. Every time the Cardinals. Yeah. Cardinals Bears. Every time the Cardinals were in the red zone, they're in the red zone the whole game. It felt like. And they just didn't throw him the ball. And there was no hedge opportunity, right? You can't, like, bet him not to score. No, DraftKings doesn't offer that. And the way Devin Booker won the King of the Court was also, like, the craziest. The craziest backdoor. He got five free throws in the last 20 seconds. Like, when the game was over. Such a good promo, that King of the Court. Unbelievable. Oh, it's the best. I miss it. I'm just a player prop guy now. Yeah. It was very funny, too, because we had these two guys who won a Stella Blue Golden Mug who were watching games with us all Sunday, which was cool. Like, they got to basically just hang with us all Sunday. And Hank just, every single time Marvin Harrison lined up, he's like, he's one-on-one. He's one-on-one. And this guy, really cool guy. It's like, very cool guys didn't, you know, like, they just hung out with us. The guy turns to me, he's like, this is like four hours into the stream. He's just like, every time Hank says one-on-one, there's a safety on top. Does he know that? And I was like, just leave him alone. Leave him alone. Now, Hank, what, so it was a $204 bet to win 30 grand, right? 31 grand. I don't know if you'll be able to do this. What equivalent would you say? You say that's like, what, what is that me winning? Like, what, what would I have at stake there? Like, what is that? How would you equate that? I was thinking that when you said the five to win 500, like, I feel like, yeah, that would be like, when you said that I was thinking mine would be, but I probably wouldn't even bet 500 to win 50 grand. I think I would bet like 250 bucks to win like 25 grand. Yeah. Or like one of Dave's, like when Dave does like a 10 grand parlay to win like 250 or something. Yeah. But yeah, five, five, 50 grand to win 500 versus would be the equivalent of me doing like 250 to win 25. Brutal. Brutal. Yeah. That's so close. So close. That's the worst, not the worst and the best. Like, because you can't do anything to like get out of it. You just got to let it go. Yeah. Yeah. Because yeah, like that's, that's why. Well, it was like, if I just didn't pick Marvin Harrison, it would have been 240 to win like 27 grand. Oh yeah. The one thing I do, and this is coming from the biggest loser gambler in the world myself. Um, I always try to, whenever I do those parlays, I always try to end it with a spread or an over under knowing that you can get out of it, you know, or at least edge a little. Cause you just know that you will have a chance. Yeah. The touchdown, the touchdown better thing is, is can't get out of it. Yeah. You're just stuck in it. I guess do some, do some books offer that? It's. It's state by state. It's state by state. So some, some states offer. No, I believe the negative bets there against Chicago. Yeah. Um, all right. So standings Rico, you're holding on to the Pat Hill. 51% Dave, you're 48.4%. I'm so, so bad this year. 47.3%. Uh, Ebo's running away with Bob Diaco. I think it's, I think it's actually dormy at this point. Breaking news. My dad just responded. What'd he say? He just said stunned. Oh, how is he stunned? He lives in his own world. How he only watches at MSNBC. That's it. Like there was nothing in a bubble. There was nothing that could have happened on election night. That would have stunned me. Nothing. Just nothing. It's it. You can't be stunned anymore. Like, well, Boston with the boys getting a shout. That was stunning. Yeah. That was stunning. Yeah. That was stunning. That was stunning. Joe Rogan. Boston with the boys. That was very funny. Good for them. That was, you know, white, just, yeah. Getting up there and being like, and Boston is a bizarro world. Yeah. Yeah. Uh, all right. So yeah. Uh, Ebo's running away with it. Uh, and Rico. Yeah. You're, you're having 51%. So you can't remember. You can't dip below 50%. I agree. Did you see some theories out there, Dan? What Rico had his worst week this week? Yeah. Round ball started. Oh no. This is like Kyler Murray and call of duty. I've had worse weeks. Uh, two and seven week too. Speaking of which, Dave, last week we were talking, um, actually let me do the game time ad. And then, and then we have, we have something that Jackie tables proposed that I kind of liked. And I think you'll like as well. Hey, pick them listeners. We're going to take a quick break for a message from one of our partners. Still blue coffees. New can lattes are here.

Shout out Steve for, for filling in. Uh, and we talked a little round ball and Rico is very, very, very confident with us. Alabama team says 13 deep best team in the country. They will 100% be at the final four. Jackie tables throughout the idea that, uh, if Alabama doesn't make it to the final four, Rico can't go to the final four. I don't think that's right because Rico loves the final four. He's gotta be there quite literally more than anything else on there. What would you say though, about if Alabama doesn't get to the final four, Rico has to get back on the bus. To get to the Final Four. Can fly home. but has to get on the bus to San Antonio. 40 hours, Dave. But you've got to give him the alternative. I've got to give him the alternative. But if Alabama makes it to the Final Four, and I spoke on your behalf, Dave, and you can be out of this if you want, I said that you and I will go to the pump party with Rico. I also was flying first class, too. I also was supposed to fly. Oh, yeah, first class. I stay at your hotel. I thought you were saying we get in a private jet. This is way, way more skin in the game. We've got to go to the pump party with him. We have to go to the pump party with Rico, schmooze it up, shake some hands. Please say no. You don't want to go. I would think you'd want this deal. 40 hours on the bus, though, is a big risk. Do you know how many numbers you're going to get if Dan and I are at the pump party with you? Yeah. Rico, you're going to be flaunting. You might have us on fucking leashes just flaunting ourselves. I'll also throw in, Rico. I'll stay with you. One by one, six seconds, and I'll pause it. One coach after another, smoking cigarettes, getting numbers. Your numbers would be insane, Rico. It would be your greatest night. You'd be shooting fish in a barrel. And again, you're going to go. Three tuxedos to the pump party. They all wear, like, sweatsuits. No, they don't wear sweatsuits. You dress business casual. Business casual. We'll go tuxedos. Or you know what? We'll go. No, we'll get, what we'll do is, we'll get matching, like, velour jumpsuits, the three of us. The pump party. Yeah, it's up to you, Rico. It's your, if Rico wants a deal, I'll do it. I really don't want to go to the pump party. I really don't want to fly 40 hours, dude, on a bus. I already did 24. 40 is like. It's up to you. I'm not going to force a deal on you. It's up to you. You'll get the whole package. You'll get to live like a, like, like you're actually part of the big three. Hotel. Yeah, that was the other thing. He'll stay at our hotel. Yes. Yeah. And San Antonio only has like one good hotel. You'll live like a king for a couple days. Yeah, you'll be at the Four Seasons. You'll fly first class. It will be the coronation of Rico Bosco if Alabama does what they're supposed to do. Or you're on the bus and budget in. Yeah. Figuring out the two days of busing before that. Correct. And all the logistics with that. It's your choice. I'm not going to force a deal. I know. I might have to ask my other boss about that. Okay. I think. I think San Antonio is the last time Dave did parcel hotels. Yeah. What is, what does the other boss have to do with this decision? Just letting her know that it's potentially like another two days. You know what I mean? But I'm pretty confident they're going to make it. Right. Those are weekdays. Those are weekdays. Those are your work in any way. Yeah. Yeah. Alabama's going to make it Rico. Yeah. I think you guys just want to see me on the bus. It would make the tournament streams that much more electric. That's the thing. It has nothing to do with the bus choice. We're not forcing it down your throat. All right. It, to me, it has nothing to do with the bus. It has to do with the fact that the tournament streams, like I want, I want you to, to be like, have something at stake with Alabama. Not just be like, I love Nate Oates. I want to suck his cock. Let me tell you, Dan, as much as he doesn't want to go on the bus, I don't want him at our hotel. I don't want to go to the pump party. There's just as much in the game for us. I'll be rooting just as hard against him. Yeah. The pump party is going to suck. Yeah. Like, I don't. Walk out in the lobby of my hotel in the morning and see Bosco sitting there. No, thanks. I happen to just stand there. You guys are going to go for at least, at least. Oh, no. Hey, listen. No. If we go to the pump party, I'm in on the pump party. It's up to Bosco. Yeah. It's Bosco. Yeah. I would only hold you for like an hour and a half. And then I would do my own thing. As much as you want. Yeah. As much as you want. You want to get a little loose, get the parents away. I'll fucking, and guess what? I'll have a couple of drinks. I'll fucking be smoothing it up. Well, it's cash bar. So you're going to be, it's going to be on you. It's cash bar. It's going to be on you. So I'm not paying for nothing. But yeah, I think it would make the streams that much more electric. We're 11 deep now. We redshirted two guys. Oh, shit. Okay. But. All right. You think about it. I think you need to answer by feast week. All right. Yeah. I'll answer by feast week. I'm leaning towards 240. I'm leaning towards. Yes. Okay. I mean, the bus would be. I'm 1-0 on college hoops, by the way. Yeah. There you go. 1-0. What'd you take? 2-31 against Maine. How do you think of flag? I didn't watch the game. I may have only seen the highlights. He's pretty good. Well, that's the consensus on the street. Yeah. Yeah. He's pretty good. Number one pick in the NBA draft. Pretty good. He's pretty good. Yeah. Good. He's actually my pick to win it. Really? Yeah. Right now. Now you con. Not Alabama. I'd have to see more. You con. I mean, it's early. Yeah. To be honest, I, the only guy I know is Cooper flag. So that's why he'd be my pick. Everyone's saying how unbelievable he is. The kid. No. You cannot. Can up. Well, it's pretty good too. All right. So Rico, you think about that? Any, before we do our games, any thoughts about the college football playoff? I mean, I'm just excited. I, the only, the only bone. Yeah. Right. The only, the only issue I have with it is I think SMU should be ahead of Notre Dame. I SMU's SMU's resume is just as good as Notre Dame's. And they don't have the, their SMU's one loss is to BYU's undefeated. BYU's. Wild. They're four. Well, they get the buy because of the big 12. Yeah. Yeah. They're technically nine. Uh, BYU. BYU. And then, I mean, Dave, I don't know if you've looked at like the, one of the games that we're going to talk about it, Colorado, if they were on the table, they have a, they have a chance. Like they, the, the, the big 12 was completely blown up. Colorado could be in the big 12 championship game. Dion could be in the playoff. It's crazy. Yeah. And they're playing really well. I think they're going to lose this week, but they're playing really well. I'm, I'm a little nervous about this week as well. I just need Travis Hunter to keep playing. Well, that's, that's all eyes on that to save my entire football season. It's basically that all my eggs are in the Travis Hunter basket at this point. Uh, okay. Anything else about, uh, college football playoff? I mean, it, yeah, no, it's just erotic. It really, Dave nailed it. It's erotic. That fucking playoff is unbelievable. Yeah. You're going to get teams with home games in big spots. You probably have tech. It's, it's laying lined up right now. Texas, Alabama with a home game. That's unbelievable. Yeah. Notre Dame. You have to go to state Penn. That's a big deal. Like when was the last time they played? It's a big deal. Penn state is, I mean, James Franklin, he just can't fucking bum. It's, it's crazy. Then he's yelling at the kids. He's a fucking bomb. Yeah. That Jake and Kelsey thing that, that, that, I don't know how anybody is against Jason Kelsey in that story. I've actually been surprised how anybody is against him in that story. It, I don't know why he apologized. I, if you're logically. Thinking it doesn't, he was just going to repeat whatever was screamed at him from an inch away. It wasn't like if you call him an asshole, I said this, a jerk, whatever. That was what was coming back from Kelsey. Nobody's thinking that's his beliefs or uses that word. That was what it said to him. He, he, that kid, there's a difference. And we've all been out people. I, and I heard plenty of like insulting things. Yelp. You ignore it. Yeah. I don't know that I've had somebody that close to me. Yeah. Like being that. That insulting in my ear to, and by the way, he's a fucking monster. The other guy probably has been a few fights too. He's a big dude. Cause they're almost eye to eye, but like the fact he didn't actually do anything beyond breaking the phone. Give me a break. Give me a break. The, that kid introduced the word into the exchange. Like that's not, it's, it's, that's not on Jason Kelsey. Just repeat it back to him. Like what he said, he, he met hate with hate, but one kid said, hey, this kid was hateful. He just reacted. I don't blame it all. It, it, it, whatever it was said to him, he would have said back. If anything, I think he handled it pretty fucking well. Smash the phone. He pushed him when he went down. He's lucky. He didn't fucking destroy him then. And he walked away. Just like the Kelsey's are overexposed for sure. Jason Kelsey seems like a universally like nice real guy. That was, that was, and there's not many people probably just walk through the crowd. Like he was doing in the first place. And that's probably why. But what a dickhead that kid was.

Then I threw a couple other in there. Uh, we'll see. start with miami and georgia tech this is the revenge for the kneel down game uh miami's minus 11 overs under 63 i'll start i'm just gonna take the over and just hope that it goes like every miami game where cam ward goes off and their defense is not good i miami is is one of those teams they're gonna probably be undefeated but i don't really know how good they are because their defense is a problem and cam ward is just so good that he keeps getting them out of problems he's really good they seem fraudulent but they keep winning i mean they're down 17 what was it a half or late second quarter to duke and end up winning covering the game wing by a million i'm gonna take georgia tech here just i their defense so bad i think miami wins it's a big spread i don't love the game i won't bet in real life but give me georgia tech and the points okay rico yeah i'm gonna take the over i agree with everything you said dan i think their offense score and they're gonna allow points you look at some of these games like they've let up 45 to louisville 38 to cal 34 to virginia tech they're gonna let up points the rest of the way at georgia tech wake wake forest and at syracuse don't be surprised if fucking syracuse puts a scare into them in the dome 100 yeah syracuse is uh has having a nice season except for that game against pit that that liam blutman gave us all through five picks that was three pick sixes yeah all right next up we're gonna take the over and we're gonna take the over and we're gonna take the over and up dave your game michigan at indiana indiana's minus 14 over under let me find it uh this is over under 49 and a half i'm gonna i'll start again i'm gonna take indiana i i've been on india the only week i wasn't on indiana was last week because i thought it was maybe a spot and michigan state going up 10 nothing i felt like the the the biggest genius in the world and then i just looked back and it was like wait it's 35 10 what the fuck just happened they were in my was in my parlay so i after after i had nebraska i've had in last couple weeks they've covered um i think this is the easiest bet on the board i think indiana absolutely smashes michigan they're smashing everybody michigan's bad uh i i bet the game that's how much yeah i think indiana i took indiana uh michigan wins fine i'll write up but i i couldn't i don't know how that's only 14 i don't know how that's only 14 i don't know how that's only 14 i don't know if it's the name of the programs this to me should be like 28 the michigan played a little bit better than i thought against oregon still yeah 14 point spread yeah and that was at michigan yeah yeah and i think michigan is one of those teams that when they're down these teams that haven't been able to really get them they're like oh we're gonna get you it's a program defining win for indiana i agree with that i don't know about that all right well yeah not only that but program defining but it's like you it's a it's a nice little shit frustrations for a decade or whatever program defining no michigan's a 500 team no program defining would be a beat ohio columbus and beat ohio state the uh i also think there's a vibe around michigan that it's like all right this is a full rebuild year next year that's all and all in yeah yeah right i mean they asked uh sharon about the quarterback he laughed did you see dave by the way the quarterback d committed for michigan yeah i was looking at wisconsin no i didn't see looking at wisconsin i knew he did four star yeah yeah there's a chance i might be uh i i've asked if if i'm needed so i might have to drive up for the oregon wisconsin game oh wow to do to do a meet and greet we'll see they haven't given me the word if i'm needed it might just why are you looking to the side here hank gave me a face i was just curious what needed would would intend i told them whatever they need from me whatever they need from me whatever they need from me whatever they need from me i mean no not cash because that's that's illegal rico there could be a conversation about future uh nil deals but i just said whatever you need from me just let me know so you can't give them anything right now no absolutely not but we could you know the nil like if he commits to wisconsin goes to wisconsin there could be in so he could be slinging still blue coffee and cheesesteaks give him the van we should give him a van the van vanny it doesn't work it will by next football season that's wisconsin nil i know he doesn't speak for me there uh rico what's your pick in this game uh give it to me again i apologize indiana minus 14 over 49 we got sidetracked i'll tell you i'll lay it with indiana okay uh texas tech colorado colorado at texas tech texas tech is three and a half point dogs texas tech off of a huge huge win uh over under 63 this one's got me nervous you like the over like the over it's on my card i like the over both teams can score i like the over i think i've lost every texas tech bet i've made this year yeah back in the day you it used to be clemson and cal for you you said in an early pick them yep and then i've lost every clemson bet i've made so yeah uh i'll i'll take the over i'll ride with you i'll be a rider i'll get in the hole dave what do you got i believe i've had three of the last four weeks texas tech three wins arizona tcu iowa state i didn't have them when they got killed by baylor so that makes me think they're like i don't have that game in my head i just have them covering winning beat spreads i think they may nip colorado i think it's a very close game it should be a pick them i like texas tech yeah the only thing that i i'm rooting for dion but i like texas tech the only thing that makes me feel okay about colorado is the spot is not great for texas a huge win colorado off a buy did you guys see the uh the clip of shador when they when they were breaking down the huddle and the and the coach was like hey just remember registration 8 30 tomorrow for classes in the spring semester he's like that's not me yeah yeah i'm out of here i'll be a great feeling to just

like do you like mincy you don't think mincy already thought that he he and then the quote did you see they wrote a news article about mincy's speech at savannah quarterback club i i believe i yeah i did see that does some new some savannah news station and at the end of it it was like ben mince uh said next up he's hosting a college football show at old miss this weekend it's mincy's world yeah i'm sure he'll be part of it he said there'll be a riot at lsu if we didn't include him in the show yeah he did remember when we went to the final four and uh and and we did a show where we we did the cause no we no no we did no walk-ons walk-ons thank you bubba and uh when we were we were sitting there doing the live show and a chance started we want mincy we want mincy and uh after the show so we brought mincy up after the show a guy came up to me he's like yeah mincy started that chant so mincy uh all right so watch salesman i'm i'm pumped i'm pumped to see old miss i'm pumped to get down to oxford it's gonna be awesome we'll be there we have a great location right by the stadium come out 12 30 uh local time what do you guys got in this game 12 30 local time that's a two-hour time difference no what huh 12 30 local time yeah is is is the show so right so wait what i thought the kickoff was 12 30 eastern no it's 2 30 it is yeah huh i'm almost positive um it's in central time so yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah okay yeah so we're doing the the show two hours before kickoff because the kickoff is 2 30 it's central time shows at 12 30 yeah i booked all my travel and everything i thought the game was an early i thought it was a noon kick okay so i that was unneeded okay good good thing that i said it yeah well i mean i'm going i already booked everything turns out pop punk is going to be there too are you going friday night yeah i was planning on it yeah um okay anything what could you sing well i just released like probably number one diss track in the country okay all right yeah you could sing that how did youtube take that down like what were they what did they say was i totally lost on how that came down uh it did they copyrighted the whole song his music label there's a theory and i don't know if it's true that josh signed some sort of deal with warner music group i don't know why he would have but like he can only release music with them they rep jaw uh zach and it was the end around that could be it that could not be it i maybe that last ending i don't know in copyright when we're like how lucky is brie like you we tried to change it i don't know i don't know hank the answer is i don't know but youtube youtube they take it down right away you can file a complaint against and say we own it and it'll go back up we think that's what's gonna happen i have no idea how they took it and by the way it's i think it's a bad look to like it shows that we're in your kitchen if you're asking for it to be taken down yeah yeah clearly yeah all of you is there is there any how badly do you want him to make a response oh i love it same he can't win no he makes like a country song about me like that's a huge win for me is there any chance he tries to sue for what i don't i mean you'd have to it would it would be kind of a i don't know our old our old friend who was yeah you can always left yeah you can always sue had a had a lawsuit about herpes yeah that also about parody on this is but but there was with the scd thing there was like a confirmation that a girl got it from him like brown talked about before all of this like that was before me so i mean that that was like factual stuff that was out on the internet so then he can't that was the only thing i thought when i saw it i was just like because i don't know no that was the only thing i thought when i saw it i was just like because i don't know no that was the only thing i thought when i saw it i was just like because i don't know no that was like he admitted it she admitted it everyone admitted you're good i was like the cat killer was more like this person has this yeah where this is more of like a vague i mean it's obvious it wasn't very vague no but like i don't think yeah they were as direct as possible but we didn't like say i we didn't say like i think we were saying herpes and what we weren't saying that i think i think it was a line it was like curable like uh curable std yeah uh okay so i don't know if it's a good suit yeah old miss georgia you'd probably lose that's a really hard lawsuit uh really hard uh what are you guys thinking in this game i i am i'm so sick of carson beck by the way he wears too much eye black there's something about him that just pisses me off his face yeah his face he has he has a like a not great face for a quarterback yes and and he's got the full sleeve tattoos which i don't think that's i don't think that's a quarterback thing was i with you when i was mentioning that i don't i don't remember i'm like there's any other unless you're like uh tua or like um hawaiian or or uh you know samoan yeah samoan you don't see quarterbacks with full arm tattoos yeah that's a defensive end or offense alignment or linebacker linebacker the guy in the dolphins like threw people in trash incognito yeah he's a full he's a full he did he was a bully yeah that was his thing he was a bully through that nerd he's a big time bully so you're taking old miss rico yeah i think we're we're headed towards a truly chaotic season i think georgia gets a loss here i think lane i like i don't like the way beck has been playing i think lane picks him off uh and we're looking at all these teams and like there's no real true true number one contender i think everybody kind of gets mixed mashed up i think georgia gets picked off here and i like old miss let me ask you a question about the college football playoff if old miss gets picked off here i think georgia gets picked off here and i like old miss wins this game runs the table two losses indiana loses to ohio state by four touchdowns old mess yeah they're gonna put all this with the sec rightfully so yeah yeah because that that will be that's what the the the playoff that i'm not looking forward to is miami runs the table finishes out byu runs the table finishes out and then it's just as all sec and big 10 that one great i want i want a couple others i want smu in i want a colorado or kansas state i think indiana can beat ohio state i don't think that four touchdown thing is going to happen i don't either i don't either uh okay uh so you're taking old miss dave who are you taking this is like deja vu right like we see a bad game from georgia and suddenly everyone's off georgia and then georgia comes back in a curb stomper team um so i'm gonna take georgia here i i just i'm gonna take georgia i am too i i just old miss has not been able to win this type of game and georgia does georgia only loses to alabama everyone else they beat yeah 48 no or something ridiculous under under a field goal uh i think it's i think it's in kirby smart like that texas game obviously was very eye opening for me like he just he has a way of getting his guys to a level that probably no other team can get to in these big games yeah and last week's a total look ahead no interest in the game play like shit sloppy turn it on at the end they'll be up for this one they'll be ready to go i think it'll be close i'm excited to see it but man how can you go against georgia yeah uh all right last game i have uh lsu bama this is a true elimination game this is awesome because if you lose this game the loser this game is out without like i mean they they obviously there could be chaos and they could maybe but it's pretty much over for the loser of this game lsu's plus two and a half over under is 58 i'm gonna take the over in this game uh just because i think i think both defenses have have issues and i like both quarterbacks uh and it's a personal like i'm gonna sit down on my couch and watch this game and i want want the offer yeah give me some points that's i'm being fully fully transparent here there is no numbers behind my over pick it's it's i just want to see points uh dave i have no idea no idea even when you were talking it's going back and forth five times i'll take alabama but i mean if you ask me in two seconds it could be lsu i just have no idea yeah rico i'll take the boar and i'll take alabama i have a hard time thinking he's gonna lose this one with the pressure of the fan like obviously you know i just don't brian kelly in a big spot i don't want to buy it even at home i don't want to buy it beat old miss yeah that was a big spot but he hasn't had the track record of bringing together a bunch of big spots agreed he lost the usc this year agreed agreed that's you're you're not wrong in that um okay those are those are the that's the uh slate uh let's do our picks and our mortals uh draft kings this week draft kings
