We're still down here after watching Mississippi State. Alabama today. I don't remember the final score. I think it was 34, 33. I don't know. Whatever. It doesn't matter. I'm here. Liam Blutman's upstairs. I'm in a beautiful Airbnb with some of the worst Wi-Fi and TV situation you'll ever find out about Airbnb. Unbelievable that Liam was able to make it through that. Liam, hello. Hi, Brandon. We're we're chugging along. Yep. Now I can hear you two spots. I can hear you from upstairs and I can hear you from the computer. Oh, hello. I hear you eight times. What? I still hear the intro music from being honest. Is that? Oh, I must be on YouTube. I heard on YouTube, I think. So let me stop that, I guess. So anyway, hello and welcome everybody. We are it's a road game and we're trying to do it in circumstances that aren't exactly great. I did too slow Josh Payt today. That rumor is true. That happened on the sidelines after I bullied him for coming to Starfleum. All right, so the big games I thought were wherever I got. I got the notes here that I have to pull up and I got the chat going by the way. Audio is good. You guys are the best. Thank you, but you still hear Rammer's hammer, yellow hammer. Thank you very much. Good to see you guys. What kind of production is this? It's just us on the road, man. I don't know what you want. We're not we don't have big new kickoff resources anymore. We're just doing this roll tide big mouth. All right. You're talking about your whore mother, I guess. So anyway, let's go with let's let's let's go with a little bit of a little bit of this. Let me bring my notes up and no one can go. All right. So obviously Alabama loses our Alabama kills Mississippi State. Florida goes on the road and kills itself against Missouri. You've got what do you got? You got Iowa and Ohio State where Jeremiah Smith is he running away with the highest men. That question has got to be asked. And then you got a bunch of quick headers that we're going to get to. I got two observations about this week as a whole. I'm number one. I kind of try to tell you guys without telling you what I thought was going to happen with Alabama, Mississippi State. Not that that being said, nobody's ever been more right than I was about my pump the breaks team this week. You got lucky. Your team was on a by week. My pump the breaks teams were Mississippi State. Everybody relax. And Florida, everybody relax. Other people are out there. Call them 2019 LSU. That was always a farce in a phony and they're not that good. They're pretty good, but there's a lot of pretty good in the SEC. I nailed that at least. Yeah, you did a good job there strategically scheduled by week for UCLA. No big deal. Pump the breaks. You know, we didn't do much of that this weekend aside from the football talk. Mississippi State. They'll be fine. Camario being hurt, having the flu as an ideal. Florida. I thought they were still going to roll completely wrong. Green Greg is the hottest man. The planet pause. He's unbelievable what they got going on. Mizzou Austin Simmons leading his receivers is terrific. The more important question you have watched your first SEC gaming person ever. What did you think? I'm I'll get into a layer, ma'am. Happy it was in Starkville. Starkville was pretty good. It was a good weekend. We we we we had a good time and Alabama humbled everything. But that has a tendency to happen and and all that. Can I just say you pieces of shit online? And I'm not talking about the fans. You guys can do whatever you want, but the bar still people that are like, oh, Brandon Wilkes, you never go to a game again. Oh, far bit for me that I actually get to go home every now and then and be happy away from you Yankee pieces of shit. I have to work amongst you assholes and I have to why look at you all day every single day. And I get to go home every now and then I've been season ticket holder since the 90s. I've been to a thousand games and for you miss some safe fans saying, oh, you're a jinx, you're a jinx, you're a jinx. You're a stadium too, every time we lose. I don't know what I don't know what to say. You're there too, assholes. We're all in this together. We are all in this together. Anyway, I fear what's about to happen as I have correctly predicted. The roller coaster is the SEC LSU Beaks Climbs in a week one. They're on top of the mountain and we just absolutely talk about them either the best team ever. Then LSU lose the Ole Miss and Ole Miss is now on top of that mountain and they're the best team ever. And Florida beats Ole Miss Florida on top of the mountain. Missouri beats Florida. But now Alabama has beaten Mississippi State to sleep in Starfield and people have placed them right on top of that mountain. What George are coming next week and I just find it very interesting that we're not learning any lessons from week to week in this league. Keel and Russell, by the way, today I looked up his stats. I think 285 yards, three touchdowns. Blument, we watched it in person. If you told me through for 490 yards and five touchdowns, I can't believe he only threw for 285 and three. He had a couple of drop touchdowns. He was perfect. He was perfect. Like the throws he was making. The runs he was making. Like he would have 3rd in 19, dot, you know, 3rd in 13, dot. Just every single time we had him and we made a little several mistakes. We got him off the field with a sack. We were off sides like several mistakes. But Keel and Russell in the first battle against Kumari Otaylor absolutely wanted and was the best quarterback on the field in this game and one of the best quarterbacks on the field in America today. Yeah, Keel and was genuinely special to watch. He's got it. You mentioned it felt like he threw for war under. He definitely did with the drops. If those are yards, he easily throws for 400 plus. But what stood out to me about today's game was in that first part of the first half. I'd say until the middle of the second quarter, every time Alabama ran the football. Every time I received a call ball, first tackler coming in did not wrap up did not make a tackle. Second tackler comes in still not happening. They bounced off every tackle. They were just bigger, stronger, faster. Yeah, and Kumari, I'm not worried about it all. It was his worst game so far as Mississippi State Bulldog. He's still young. You've got rumors of the flu. You got rumors of Tartel yet rumors of everything, but that's the thing they got him was just a better Alabama football team. Better in every single position just about. So, so it was bad in the short term. It'll be good in the long term. Kumari was the guy. Kumari was still a great, great, great, great quarterback. And yeah, we live and we learn and Alabama has humbled us in this spot many times in my life. We haven't beaten him since 2007. It's 18 in a row now. It's bad. And they are, yeah, they're clearly the better football team in every single facet of every single thing you can do on a football field. Alabama was better than Mississippi State today. And I got to say I hate living in Chicago because of the people I'm with, but I do I do acknowledge the superiority of Chicago's October weather because it was too fucking hot. It was too fucking hot. I don't know how you people live down here like this. I can't do it. I'll get back home playing tomorrow and go back to Chicago. So you said you were going to unleash all your thoughts about Alabama tonight or what? I mean, I do have a lot of thoughts about Alabama. It's like they were the most impressive team I saw they in due part because they were the easiest team to watch today. You said our Paul watching said right out 10 to 1.2 if that you couldn't even watch games last night. The Wi-Fi don't work. It's crazy. We walk in there onto the field. The first thing we know is the these guys are massive human beings, which like, yeah, I understand we all know that it's different seeing a close and personal, but when we're watching that game, the first things I'm noticing is They are punishing you guys during and after the play. They are shoving you guys around. They are imposing their will every chance that they get and overwhelming you. And Mississippi State just couldn't match that. And it's for Alabama and the Calendivores tenure, important to me because they had a softer culture the last two years to see them bully and push it around was very intriguing to me. I still think Georgia whoops them next week, but I can buy Alabama as a legitimate playoff team and contender going forward. Yeah, I can too. I mean, they legitimately look like a playoff contender. I have been as critical of Du Boer as everybody. But you know, when things are going good, that's not the Du Boer you question. It's when they fall, it's when they're behind in the second half and they just lay down and quit like they've done a couple times in this tenure. Now that hasn't happened this year, maybe this team is different. This does look like his most physical team or looks like his best team so far. But once again, Alabama coach has been beating Mississippi State like this forever. And this isn't, you're not, if you're calendivore, you're not judged on beating Mississippi State at Alabama. It probably feels good in the moment to shut my fat ass up. But you judge by what happens next week and what happens later on down the line. So when you play LSUs of the world and stuff like that. So we'll see, we'll see, they certainly won the battle today. Now I just got to give people a little behind the scenes. Did I get in my green today? Yes, have I been asleep for a couple of hours, yes. But anyway, it doesn't matter. Today was just a cavalcade of comedy, trying to get through that game and knowing, 'cause Mississippi State fought in the first half. It was 28, 17 and a half and Camario was a miracle worker just to get him to half down 11 because it could have been way, way, way, way worse. And then the second half, he just ran out of gas and the whole team ran out of gas and Alabama just thumped us. I just leave in there, there was just so weird. I got almost got in a fight with a state fan who told me to stop cussing. He's like, "Hey, Brandon, I'll never root for you "because you say GD too much." And I turned around and said, maybe if you ate a salad, you wouldn't be so, and then he gets mad and he says, "Well, don't you come behind the stands "and say that to me." So I went behind the stands and said it to him. So whatever, we had that confrontation and then we had all that. I saw an ex-girlfriend and her husband and the ex-girlfriend's like, "Oh, we're just so proud of you "and I go to shake the husband's hand." He just looks at me like this. He says, "Maybe you shouldn't come to the games anymore." Oh, I'm sorry, dude. I'm sorry for turning your wife out 20 years ago. Anyway, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. So we've got plenty of football to talk about. I gonna tell you about NASCAR real quick before I go any further. The chase is rolling into Talladega with championship pressure on the line. And the biggest party in racing is happening all around it. College students, consider this your excuse to take your tailgate to Talladega. With the yellowwood 500 college offer, choose your seat, bring your crew, camp and tailgate for free, and yes, you can bring your own cooler, grab your friends, pack the drinks, and make a weekend out of it. Or if you're currently suffering from Talladega and Knights withdrawal, we gotta cure for that too. The day-to-con ticket package gets you into the race. Exclusive merch and chance to meet cast members from Talladega and Knights. Or keep it simple, and general tickets are available too. However you decide to go to Talladega, don't be the one hearing about it after we grab your tickets now because the Talladega anything can happen. All right, I took some humble pie today. Obviously, Mr. State wasn't ready for that game. I still think we're a top 25 team, but that's the difference in a top five team or the top 20 team that'll be around the rankings all season long. We have a biweek now, we gotta get healthy, flip off well, we've gotta get healthy. Doesn't matter, Alabama now sets itself up for the gigantic showdown with Georgia next week. We will talk about that throughout the week, I'm sure. The one team that outside of my little world that includes Mrs. City State that really took it on the chin today was the Florida Gators. I don't question your ball knowledge, Liam. I'm a big fan of your ball knowledge, your number one ball watcher in the world. I was trying to pump your brakes on Florida all week when you said they're legit top whatever team. Other guys out there were saying they are as good as 2019 LSU. Today, Jayden Ball runs 12 times for 13 yards. Like, he is a good solid running back. He is not a Heisman contending running back. He's just not, he's not that he's not gonna have the highlights. He's not gonna have anything. The fight lows, not a quarterback that's gonna go on the road and the SEC and scare anybody I don't think. So it's a good solid team that'll probably win eight to nine games, but this idea that they were a national title contender is what I bucked against all week and I think Missouri showed that today. - Yeah, it's a big scheme, Buster Falkner thing for me and having the talent in place to do it. And I did jump the gun, sure, but I'm also not selling their stock because of one road loss in the SEC. I think that that would be more foolish. They got thumped today in Molleywap. Absolutely embarrassed. But if I know John Sumrell, he's gonna find a great way to respond to get things back on track. I look around the SEC and I see a lot of, we talk about how the SEC's like the NFL where any team could win, any given Saturday, any given Sunday, you know? So there's gonna be some sort of parody. You called this, you sniffed it out, you did a great job. There was the whole LSU over Clemson and then was next Ole Miss over LSU, Florida over Ole Miss and now Mizzou over Florida and now is the A&O over Mizzou next week. Like, is that what's next? Is this just a domino effect? I just don't think that team can beat Texas and Georgia. Like I think them as a playoff contender is interesting 'cause they certainly are a playoff contender. They're not a championship contender. Again, the quarterbacks just kind of pretty good. And me, you know, if you shut down, they're running back, you shut them down. And that's not a great place to be a very competitive SEC. Now, unless we can't really talk about this game without saying that Austin Simmons was fantastic and that Missouri was very good at home. And I felt that last week when Missouri lost at Mississippi State, they lost a one-score game to the top 25 team on the road. Then they had the ball and threw the ball in the end zone in the last play. This was not a team you should throw out by any means. That's why I kept them on the top 25 last week. People thought I was foolish. No, they're pretty good. Missouri is pretty damn good. But outside of Georgia and Texas on the high end, maybe Alabama too, outside Georgia, Texas, Alabama, and outside of Arkansas on the low end, and maybe Texas A&M, maybe Auburn and South Carolina. There's just a whole lot of pretty good in the SEC. It's just that everybody's about the same, I think. Everybody is about there in the middle. I don't know that any of those teams are gonna be Georgia or any of those teams are gonna be Texas. And none of them will lose to Arkansas. But in the middle, it's just gonna be this week. All, it's gonna be like this all year long where you have highs and lows, ups and downs because there's just so much topsy-turvy in the middle of the SEC. All right, I wanna go to another game and this is the question from that other game. Is Jeremiah Smith gonna run away and high with this high-smotrophy, Liam Blumman? - Brother, he just might. It's every single week. He's the entire offense. He is the focal point. He is being double-team, triple-team, bracketed, targeted by every single human being on a road environment stadium. The whole entire press box knows the ball is going to him. And he still comes down with every single grab. They are grabbing this man, holding him on every rep. And he's still got, he is, he's in the Nidmai. He's one of the best we've ever seen, man. And we need to cherish every single snap of this guy's career. - So sometimes it's just as simple. It's as simple as using your eyes and deciding who the best player in the country is. He is the best player in the country. We kind of knew it was gonna be the best player in the country, but we still talked ourselves into certain quarterbacks and this and that. We probably will for the rest of the year. I know Keel and Russell today join the high-smot conversation in a big way. He's got a chance to beat George the next week and really get in there. But Jeremiah Smith's the best player. Jeremiah Smith's the best player. Don't overthink it. Jeremiah Smith is the best player. I am concerned as a bad word. But this idea that he is carrying the Ohio State offense more than I've seen any individual receiver carry that offense. Like we've seen great court receivers in there. A lot of Jackson, Smith and Jigba, Marvin Harrison, Jr., and now Jeremiah Smith. None of those guys carried the offense to the level this guy does. He had 11 catches, two touchdowns, 208 yards today. They had 310 or 320 yards passing. They had 208 of it. Like he is carrying that offense. If he were to go down for a game or whatever, like I'm not sure the offense would be good, much less, or I don't know if it's possible, much less good. So it's weird that he's carrying them so much, but it's also because he is a phenomenal football player. And he did it last week against Illinois. That's one thing. He goes into Iowa. You say whatever you want about it, Iowa football. They're a playoff contending team too. Say whatever you want about him offensively, but defensively, they're always going to knock their dick in the dirt. They're always going to be very good. And he did that today against Iowa and Iowa City. That's unbelievable. He's an amazing football player. He is plus 1-10 to win the Heisman right now. After Alabama had beat Mississippi State, Keelan was the favorite Jeremiah Smith took a bag and didn't look back. And that's the best price you'll ever get on him from here on out. So if you want to get any money off this Heisman whatsoever, I think it's time to put in the Jeremiah Smith bet right now. It's you will not get a better price. Now unless Keelan Russell throws for 400 yards next week and beats Georgia, we have a conversation changer. I do. don't really see that happen, but you know what? Stranger things have happened. All right, Chad, I got you over here. I see that you're here. 179 rushing yards on the ground for all, is that for Ohio State? Yeah, they average what, three and a half yards of carry. It wasn't, it wasn't great. So anyway, let me tell you about Venno. Let me tell you something about college football. Nobody in the sport knows how to do anything halfway. You're not gonna go the game. You're gonna make a day of it. We certainly did Liam Blutman. You got the tailgate, the food, the gear, the traditions, and somehow you're $300 deep before kick off. Then your buddy finally pays you back for the stuff you bought for everybody. Take that money and your Venno balance and spend it with the Venmo debit master card because in college football, there's always something else to buy. More food, more gear, more cowbells, whatever your school considers a Saturday necessity. And with the Venmo debit card, you spend your Venmo balance right away with no monthly fee or minimum balance. That's important because apparently nobody in college football has ever heard of a budget. Spend your balance instantly with the Venmo debit card, no monthly fee or minimum balance. Learn more at Venmo.com/card. Venmo balance account required to use a balance and get the card effective November 1st, 2026. The Venmo master card is issued by the band court bank in a. - All right, let's go around the country. A little quick hitter is right here. I'm gonna pull it in my notes one more time because we gotta do it like that. Liam, the cowbells, did you handle them okay? Dude, you could not be more right about the cowbells that you drown them out. It's just part of it. It's part of your life. It doesn't matter. People tell me they wear earplugs. I'm not three years old, man. They add earplugs for people to take two. I don't need that. The NASCAR, like being down in pit road and NASCAR is so much louder, gives you a headache way more. The cowbells are fantastic. My favorite part, Brandon, was the second you're posing offense gets out there. - Yeah. - You know, he's getting right. It's not about 25 seconds. Like, stop doing the cowbell and just yell. And everyone listens. And then the second the ball snaps, it's just the cowbells, but it's terrific and units, and I love it. - Yeah, people are massive fussies about cowbells. All right, going around the country, Michigan, LOL. This is a, it's a bad football team. It's a bad football team who tried to tell you that we're bad early, tried to tell day port noise stupid ass. They were bad early. They lost to Western Michigan. The, you know, the committee of officials got together and overruled that one. They beat it up with home a team who's not very good and they were still ranked in top 25. And now it's just a slow moving cavalcade of bullshit. It's just a gross football team. Liam Blutman on this show said, the winner of this game, Minnesota of Michigan, will be the first to 17. Minnesota got all the way to 20, but technically they were the first to 17 and that's exactly what happened. Bryce Underwood might have lost the job today. He was that bad. What was it? Nine of 2111 yards, something like that. He was got awful. It is halfway now through his sophomore season. He was a five star multi multi multi million dollar project. And it has not worked. And I think they got a change. Michigan football is a fucking disaster, Liam Blutman. Yeah, they do need to change, but there's so much more outside of quarterback play that is dysfunctional. The reason that they truly do need to change quarterback one, Bryce is bad, but to give a spark, find something else for everyone else to get behind and believe in. I don't think they believe in Bryce Underwood either. Obviously, I think you agree with that. So find some mojo there and roll it. I think Kyle Langham said this is the most difficult job he's ever had is coaching this team right now. Brand Walker. How's that make you feel? I saw you as lap. Well, I mean, what are they trying to accomplish? Like their defense is good, but it's not, you know, it's not the 2000 Baltimore Ravens. It's not gonna like go out there and score points for you. Like it's, it defense is fine. We all pile on Bryce, right? Like what receiver scares you? What running back scares you? You know, do they have the offensive line? That's going to shove your face in the dirt. What about this team? What's supposed to be good? I the quarterback was supposed to begin waste the money. Marsh is a great receiver, but it's the only guy underwood ever targets. The defense is, the defense is really good. It's not, it's not really great. Yeah, the team is mediocre all around and let's once again bring up the fact their head coach is someone that they saw after five days after he retired. Yeah, yeah, correct. But I mean, they weren't a spot, right? They weren't, they weren't a total spot. The carousel kind of passed them by and they waited too late to move on the guy they should have moved on in September of last year. But they're, they're, it's poor leadership. They're just a bad operation up there. They're like, everything about Michigan football is a joke right now. It's a fucking joke. You know, we got our asses kicked. They're out there just that they, they can't score. Minnesota will be about, it will be 38-13. My team went to Minnesota one with no problem. Can you see it? I'm just pointing out, pointing things out. I'm pointing things out. I see a couple of very interesting results in the Big Tandleum. I personally would like to welcome the Purdue Boilermakers back to the land of the living and I think we might start to really question what Illinois football is doing because Purdue Big Tandleum today, Purdue is a team that's just been gone from major college football for the last couple of years. They lost an overtime to Wake Forest a couple of weeks ago. By the way, that might age pretty beautifully. Purdue 24, Illinois 17, Liam. Yeah, watched every second of this clash, Ryan Brown. I think Ryan Brown's been really good. He's surgical against UCLA. I know he was pretty good against Wake Forest as well. Like you said, Wake Forest Jake Dicker has things are all there. I assume he was pretty good day. Femme, Isha Boy is one of the best backs in the conference, too. Purdue's got a nice little one, two, quarterback, Ryan back to Illinois, too. Like I was all over from last year. I didn't get it. I heard a lot of people talk about K and House are going in this year like, ooh, they could, they could keep it going. Nah, man, nah, that, that, that, that program ain't ever right now, Chief. You know, I know we talked about the SEC a lot, but that middle of the Big Tandleum is interesting as fuck, too. Like Ohio State's can do what they're doing at the top. Organ's, you know, scrapping to try to stay at the top and everything Indiana still won't play a real football team. But we, in the middle of that Big Tand, you've got Purdue knocking off the Illinois of the world. You got last night, Penn State going to Northwestern and just getting thumped. You've got Wisconsin stirring there in the middle. A lot of things happening in the middle of that Big Tand last night. Like Penn State, you said this to me at dinner, at dinner last night. You've said we really just acted like a 7-5 Iowa state team was going to go to Penn State and make them a title contender or a playoff contender. And we did. I did it. You did it. Everybody did it. Everybody looked at that schedule and they said, oh, easy schedule. Penn State's a playoff contender. But that's not the team. Why did we do that? Why did my stupid ass do that? Why did I look at the schedule and say, well, easy schedule. Penn State could be in a playoff. Why didn't I consider this coach has never really won much? This, this team that he brought over has never really won much. So what is it about Penn State? Why did I do that, Liam? Why am I so stupid? We as looked at the logo and looked at the schedule. And so yeah, they'll be fine. They'll be able to win a lot of games. And then when you really just watch them and break it, they weren't, they were winning their non-conference preseason but it wasn't like convincing. And that temple game was scary for a bit, huh? That was weird, right? That was a red flag. And then these last two weeks up in the utter disaster. And I popped the question last night on the Twitter sphere. Who wins if they played tomorrow, genuinely, or next week? Who wins? 2026, Penn State or 2026, Iowa State. I think it's 2026, Iowa State. I think 2026, Iowa State has the barehead coach, dude. They're in a much better position than Penn State is right now. That is a disaster. The way that they completely botched their coaching search praised the heavens they botched Chesney. Well, a bunch of morons. Nick in the chat says Jeremiah Smith is not the Heisman. He is a good receiver. That's all he is. I just-- I find it shocking some of you are smart enough to turn your phone or computer on and watch the show. I find it shocking that you can form a coherent thought if that's what's in your brain. I find it shocking that you can live every day life. If you watch College Football on a week to week basis, and your takeaway is Jeremiah Smith is not the Heisman. He is only a good receiver. That's all he'll ever be. What? Are you? Are you? What? But how do you get to that level of stupidity? And I need smarter fans. That's what I would like. Anyway, by the way, I've been down here the whole time. I'm gathering thoughts on our big noon kickoff situation. And everybody, the world is awaiting my thoughts. I will have those on Monday. I'll have those on Monday. Am I mad about Dave for getting me fired off TV? No. So anyway, let's go around the country. I've got to bring up my notes. I'm right out of the chat. So I've got to bring up the notes. Smith could win the Heisman running back. OK. That's an interesting thought. It's an interesting thought starter right there. Let's go with back around the country. Liam, the most obvious play on the board today. The easiest bet on the board was South Carolina minus three. everything about Stunk. I knew Vegas was telling a South Carolina was going to win that game and I forgot one valuable lesson because I started to value my own thoughts and my interpretation of Vegas and I knew that I had figured out the board and when you do that you forget these certain lessons this one lesson you need to know in football. Losers lose and Shane Beamer is a massive loser and he needs if you're serious about football South Carolina he cannot be your coach past Sunday night or Monday morning you just can't I have no idea what the game plan is there South Carolina came out was up 17 nothing over Kentucky cruising just doing everything and then here comes Kentucky will sign they end up scoring they it goes to overtime 27 27 South Carolina scores for our 34 27 will sign scores and then he goes for two and it I don't know if you saw the two point conversion Liam it was seven on seven against air it was a legit seven on seven we're going out there we we're not ready to face the defense yet so we're just going to run the routes and we're going to throw it to you and we're going to get it down and then we're going to get some defense I think Mike Loftsley is certainly somebody we've talked about Mike Norville somebody we talked about although we'll get to him in a minute you know there's a couple more Shane Beamer might be our first coach in the club has fired because what the fuck was that yeah he might be the two point conversion you were pretty generous about that to me felt a lot more like you're on the field before the game and you got guys running routes and there's no defense there it's just quarterback and pass catcher and that's it complete freedom today in Kentucky South Carolina you mentioned 17 nothing lead here's the difference one side has a head coach who is a true leader of men and in great motivator and is learned and soaked up every bit of the great coaches that he's been around and the other guy is a perennial loser who who needs to be out there as soon as possible should have been out there last winter whose players I think love them but don't respect them and listen this is from an outside perspective I don't know for sure but I don't think his players love his football instincts and mind and the message is lost it's like a coach and hockey where though he's lost the room and you just got to make a change and you just got to smell someone else's farts in the words of the great brown walker you don't smell someone else's farts man they can't grab them as soon as possible you should be the first coach gone but Mike should be in the first coach gone last week and there's a whole bunch of other coaches brown walker it's bad out there it's bad out there and speaking of when you say it's bad out there let's just be honest other other shows and other people can can you know they can pretend and they can act like everything's positive and they can act like okay it's gospel ball so it's the best thing ever and I'll never say anything bad week five should be better than that then there should be we should have more to talk about tonight than than Mississippi State Alabama than Missouri Florida the Ohio State Iowa we should have more than what we got like I just look around the country and and just so they're just tonight the night slate what were the big games it was Clemson Miami that ended up being the snoozer it ended up you know USC Washington we're in a dog fight for a while I understand that those are two bad football teams Texas Tech Colorado that was ugly to watch for a while like what McNeese LSU and Arkansas and M were SEC's offerings on Saturday night week five what the get the fuck out of here what do we do come on come on come football give me more than that all right BYU 17 TCU 10 eyes we monitored the big 12 for movement around that top BYU Texas Tech all the teams not the most inspiring thing you'll ever see for BYU bear Bob Meyer did have two rushing touchdowns I still don't know to make heads or tails in that conference Liam but they you know BYU's the one team to watch every single week as far as I'm sorry I know Houston had a comfort behind victory today where they scored the last 17 or whatever points against against UCF you got anything on BYU for me yeah I just think the big 12s fine man I just think they're fine Texas Tech was not exactly inspiring today BYU again wasn't inspiring either but they find the ways to get it done when it matters most that was a close game all throughout Baylor is up 21 the three on Arizona state all of a sudden like the conference is just I don't see any of them being able to win a playoff game and that's what matters most in the sport right now there's a lot of you know I've been right on most things this year the wrong guess I've been probably Louisville what the fuck happened to Louisville man look the NC State two weeks ago was the biggest joke in the in the sport now they're beating Louisville at home 31 28 I don't know why does Isaac Brown get nine carries a game does does anybody have that information for me every time I watch Louisville I see this Isaac Brown character and he's average and 10 yards of carry whatever last year's average and crazy yards per carry and then today he ran for a hundred and a lot he ran for a lot he had nine carries what I don't understand Louisville at all if Louisville scores 28 they're opponents gonna score 31 if they score 38 they're opponents gonna score 41 they lost the Ole Miss and start the season then they beat SMU and I think okay there's your second ACC playoff contender there it is they look good and they immediately lose two games they immediately figure out how to give up as many points as they got to give up to lose those games. Brown is not somebody I think has who's been living on the hot seat but man we might need to fire that thing up real quickly yeah and just got the extension this off season so that's always fun I just feels like a misuse of of offensive talent and properties it really does Lincoln I think Lincoln played great again they played great offensively their defense keeps lying down they only had three pennies they bought them being on discipline this line down their DB's line down the past rush lets them down it's a team that doesn't feel fully in sync and it's a team that maybe is going to crumble to preseason expectations and never live up to the hype and maybe all that rap poison got to their brains hand up you and I were wrong about Louisville hand up 100% wrong I want to talk about either coaching malpractice or whatever I don't know what you want to call it I don't know if anybody has seen the plight of the Tennessee quarterback situation but last week they threw out Faeson Brandon they went through the first month of the season playing nobody Faeson Brandon the true first one was their starting quarterback at Tennessee Faeson Brandon was fine over the first couple of weeks they end up they had a road win at Georgia Tech and then last week they throw him out there he gets hurt in the middle of the game they still putting back he gets back ten times ten times by Texas now today against Auburn they bench him and they bring in George McIntyre and I don't know McIntyre goes 8 for 10 they end up beating Auburn 24 to 14 to Sean Bishop 220 yards rushing Josh Hypole is somebody I've always considered a quarterback whisperer somebody I've always considered one of the better quarterback coaches in the country for what he did with Hinden Hooker and other guys and I think they I don't know it bears monitoring they might be in the middle of botching this Faeson Brandon thing I don't know if they're gonna ruin him early or if they're gonna give up on him or if they're just being very careful and gonna get him through this little rough patch but throwing a guy out there and letting him get back ten times against Texas and then pulling him in his next start is a great great great way to ruin a freshman quarterback tell me I'm wrong Liam I don't think you're wrong I is a great way to shoot someone's confidence the offensive line is not very good Auburn is not very good it went down oh man there's not much else to add on to this yeah no there's not I just I just think it's a very interesting detail and kind of a note down there in Knoxville you know there's nothing I can do to make Auburn at Tennessee interesting Auburn is not an interesting football team they have they don't have an SEC quarterback they don't have an SEC offense they have an SEC defense but they Auburn if you ask me Brandon go out there do a podcast where you make Auburn interesting then just fire me because there's nothing I can do and the Tennessee angle there with the quarterback is all I can come up with Florida state 38 Virginia 7 you won't talk about another team that I fell for early in the season I fell for Virginia I thought Virginia was a legit top 15 team and they're not and Florida State ran all over them today so hand up on that one Virginia for me Louis Louisville Louisville we're here in Mississippi Louisville is something that we call it down here and that's where the guy was from that I got in a fight with the so yeah I got one more question for you before we get to our categories are you ready for this question did Stanford join the ACC so they go cross country and get beat 57 to three they didn't have a conference branded they they they they have a conference they get a lot left behind sad it's sad oh real be if you're looking to maintain your home field advantages fall check out real be with over up 400 cordless solutions across [BLANK_AUDIO] 14 vote, one plus 40 vote in USB lithium platforms.

Okay, that's seven more than me. So I might just write down Keelan Russell five times and Jeremiah Smith five times. That's how, now there's, again, to Sean Bishop 220 yards. Who's the Iowa State running back to the rain for over 200 yards today? A. N. Flory, he had 212 rushing yards three touchdowns, also through for two touchdowns of 48 yards. Want me through your seven, guys? All right, I really just, I put Jeremiah Smith on there, Justin Casey, the avalist, by tried to think of guys that you won't have. Ashton Daniels had 17 carries for 136 yards and five touchdowns on Virginia. That is hilarious. Great, and that can send the Oregon State Corps back and justly agree, the Oregon State true freshman and receiver. Broken record every single week, I'm talking about these guys. Atkinson started 15 of 15. He had 428 passing yards five touchdowns on 31, 34. LaGurie had five catches for 157. Three touchdowns. These guys are unreal. Oregon State is one of the best watches in the sport. Caleb Kumel-Alafe and Joseph Hyman and the Northwestern offensive lineman. 350 rushing yards. Three touchdowns smoked Penn State. The Mizzou Rush attack, the Mizzou Rush defense. Jamal Roberts had 24 carries, 211 yards. Three touchdowns, LJNBA, 13 on 12. And then the Yale quarterback, Dante Reno. He threw for 298 yards and four touchdowns one day after his father passed away. - Oh, okay. What was your ball watching set up at the landing? And landing is a hot new bar and startful. A lot of TVs, did you have a good down there? - The couch was nice, it was really loud. It was really so much music, so crowded. Thank you to our friends at the landing, bad connection. - Okay, all right, all right. They set you up though. - They did set me up. It was nice to see Jake Will and everyone. - What was the best food you had startful this week? - It was the first bite of the catfish with crawfish sauce at Anthony's and West Point brand. That's one of the best bites of food I've ever had. Look at me smiling. - Yeah, I'm gonna flip an ad right here to do the Reese's Winter of the Week up top 'cause I just realized most impressive team in Winter of the Week are two redundant. So we're gonna, the first one we read every week 'cause we get into these categories. We'll be the Reese's Winter of the Week and nothing makes you a winner like Reese's. It's the best, you guys, it's the best snack. The classic Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. Now, Reese's has so many in their family. The outrageous, all the animal crackers that we have at the office. But to me, the old-fashioned Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are the best. I love it, everybody else loves it. Hey, we're gonna go to the airport tomorrow. I'm gonna get a Reese's for the, I always get a little snack to get on the plane and I'm gonna get me a Reese's and I'm gonna be happy on the plane. And because Reese's is a winner, I can give you the Reese's Winter of the Week right now. Reese's the official candy partner of Barcial Sports. Go get Reese's wherever you shop. My Reese's Winter of the Week. Would be disingenuous if I didn't give it to the Alabama Crimson Tide. They were just, they were remarkably impressive. And I guess if I had to narrow down, Keel and Russell was great. He was fantastic. Every, there's one thing to be good. There's another thing to just take your opponent's soul over and over and over again. And that's what Keel and Russell did today. We would get him on 3rd and 19 and Russell would make a crazy back shoulder through that nobody else in the country would even attempt and he would do it. He would run for 12 when they needed 11. Like every single time state had a chance to get off the field and state was fighting. First half state fought. I like they fought and they fought and they fought. They stayed in there. And once Alabama scored 35-17, the back was broken and it was over. But Keel and Russell every single time Bamanator play, he made it. Next week, yes Georgia, that's something we gotta, that's a bridge across when you get to it. But this week, Alabama, Keel and Russell remarkably impressive. That's my winner of the week. Who's your races winner of the week? - My races winner of the week is guys who go on the Liam Blutman channel talk ball coaches are 7-0 after talking the Liam Blutman. Paulusek hasn't lost that North Dakota. They Stein hasn't lost the Kentucky and Spencer Daniels and guy win a day. Every coach does come on talk with me. Hasn't lost the game since. I got another winner of the week. Me, we were at yesterday, we were at the Mississippi State football facility and Liam was getting a tour and getting taken around and they got on the elevator. I turned around and Sean McDonnell was in the lobby and he looked up and says, oh Brandon Walker, what's up, man? I haven't been successful very long. If you even call what I do successful. But there's something very college football nerd that makes sports nerd in me that when Sean McDonnell looks up says, what's up, Brandon Walker? If fucking felt amazing. Oh my God, it felt great. And you know what, whatever money, whatever. Sean McDonnell said, what's up, Brandon Walker? Fuck all of y'all. That's what I say. That was amazing. So I was the winner of the week for that fifth. Liam, who was the most depressing team of the week this weekend? - Dude, there's two options here. They're both West Coast. I'm bringing up Cal again. Cal goes to UNLV and gets boat race. It was ugly early JKS got her. This all shall lie on in a good way. A torsion point, he in strong. Both put JKS as health first. He got up, concussion like symptoms and look like nature. He then play prioritizes health. Love that. Down though, dude. They're serious talk, I think, starting to swirl around Berkeley. That they might have to completely start over, start from scratch this off season. It's that bad. The star of the Tosh loop, where is that bad? That ugly, that uninspiring. It's an absolute mess. And the other one, Proud Walker, do you know what happened in Colorado State today? - Yeah, they played, hold on. They played one of the, what happened? - They played Oregon State. Their defense corner, Tyson Summers, Conplays. As he does, Jim Moore released them as his duties in the middle of the game. He ends up leaving the field, leaving the stadium. He's been fired in the middle of the game. Can't be worse than that. - My most depressing team, kind of cheating a little bit here. There's several options. I mean, Michigan is depressing as hell right now. Like, what's the end game? And they got a lot of schedule ahead of them, man. They got some schedule ahead of them. Penn State's depressing, but there's a, there's, and I'm going through it right now. There's levels of depressing. There, there's, we're terrible. There's, oh my God, we weren't as good as we thought. There's, oh my God, we got to this moment and shit down our leg. There's, oh my God, Alabama will never lose to us again. And then there's, we're 4-0, it's a Friday night, and our kicker just made the kick yay. What a sound, what a fall. What did you say? He didn't make the kick. That clip of Virginia Tech, where he kicks it, it goes over the upright. (singing) And then the crowd erupts and there's a pop. And it's just, ah, and it just stops. That is so goddamn depressing. And then knowing you lost to a team, making a high-end shot towards ACL, they're done for the season. Like, Pitt just ruined Virginia Tech season and then they had their own season where they'd both lost, coming out of that game somehow. And Pitt, I'm putting too many topics together right now, because Pat and Arduzzi needs to be talked about too, because they got out game by 200 yards, according to that guy hurt, and they were like, "Yep, yep, well, why don't you rank us?" Okay, you guys were pretty good, I guess, but whatever. Anyway, Virginia Tech, that's a shitty, depressing way to lose. That's all I have to say about that. Liam, I told you so award of the week, what you got? Iowa State, Jimmy Rogers. I think Jimmy Rogers is one of the brightest futures of any coach in this sport, every player, that he has coached I've spoken with, can't talk highly enough about this guy there. So this guy radiates so much. He's got Iowa State looking better than Penn State, a few games since this season. I think Iowa State's a pretty sneaky team. I thought they played you top tougher than you gave him crap for last week. Big win against the West Virginia team I could run in the ball and so many teams, great rushing attack. Iowa State, just a team of the monitor, but Jimmy Rogers at Coach Tomonter. Yeah, no, actually not my most present team. My, I told you so award, it's the Florida Gators. I tried to tell you guys, you Florida fans, just all of them, I mentioned to tell me, I'm just terrible than this and I'm a hater, and I mad that you fired Dan Mullin. Well, that's been four years ago. I just thought when they won last week everybody should just stop and not crown them, national title contenders, not crown them, everything they wanted to crown them. And I face a lot of Jayden Ball, you know, criticism where I said he's the fourth or fifth best running back in the country. And Florida fans say if you don't say Jayden Ball is the best running back in the country of your loser, he had 13 yards on 12 carries today. Like he is fine. He is pretty good, he's really good, but he is not a difference maker when you're going on the road and playing a Missouri team where you got to keep open to shoot out. He has moved the change back. He is not going to have the greatest highlights in the world. He is a good running back and they are a good team, but they are not a great team. They don't have a great defense. And the coach is probably going to get this thing going and have them entitled contention in the near future. I like the coach, but they're not there yet. The quarterback's not good enough, and it was obvious to me other people out there saying they're 2019 LSU. I don't know. Those people just won't everybody like them, and I will never do that. I will never do that. I will tell you the truth. And the truth is I was right about Florida. What is my next award? It's the the hand up I was wrong award. And I'll go first, Liam. I don't have one. I don't have a hand up. I was wrong. You look out in this country today and tell me where I was wrong about 18. I told you about Michigan. I told you about everybody. I told you about Florida. Everything I've said has come true. I even tried to under my breath and in you by sending signals tried to tell you Liam and you world what was going to happen with Alabama today. I listen, Jesus, Alabama killed us. We've been losing this game for 20 years. I didn't know we had the the bodies to go out there competing for 60 minutes and we didn't, and it is what it is. I just wasn't wrong at all today. So good congratulations to me. Except for South Carolina. I mean, that was the most I've the Vegas was wrong. That was the most obvious spot. Also losers lose. Losers lose. That was a good pick. And South Carolina should have won that game. And losers, Shane Bimmer is a loser. So he was wrong. I wasn't wrong. All right there. What's your hand up? I was wrong for the week. Florida taking care of business against Mazew completely wrong. Nikki smokes going belt on Gringrad completely wrong. It was the opposite way and then Louisville again once again wrong. Yeah, I was wrong and Louisville too. And in Virginia as well. All I tried to do, all I tried to do was lift you up, help you out, platform you, try and bring Mississippi State Starfield something special this week. That's all I tried to do. I know, I know. And I like that you were, I like that you were confident. I like that you kept telling me that we were going to win. And I was trying to say, hey, Liam, just everybody relax out of your man. Does everybody? Everybody chill out. What are my other awards? The most badass thing of the day? Because I got a badass thing of the day that I saw. My most badass thing of the day that I saw. And your mileage may vary. And there's going to be a lot of people like in chat. Thank you for being here by the way. That don't like the antics. And last week, you know, you had the the blood on the face. PJ Fleck and now I'm scared I got AI by the way. PJ Fleck doing the, doing the jug and then running and jumping into a crowd surfing with his team after beating Michigan. You know, PJ Fleck is somebody that when they're losing, you kind of see through whatever you think he's doing. But when they're winning, when they're winning, when Minnesota is going good and he's running around and hugging everybody and doing, it's something contagious about it. And it's something fun to watch about it. I thought my most badass thing was just PJ Fleck running into that locker room today, Liam. Yeah, pencil me in for another one I was wrong about his man. So I thought they'd be pretty, I was sour on that. I thought they'd be a five six one team. It seemed to be a bit better than that. Good for them. The flat thing was real. It wasn't AI. My warrior was just Houston. It was just the team. It was everything about the program this week. Did you see their space helmets? Did you see the space uniform? They pulled it out against UCF. It was a space race this week. But guess what brand? Nobody showed up to the game. Willy Fritz called him out in the post game. Where are fans? Where are top 25 team? That's a pathetic showing from our fans. So I give credit to Houston for finding themselves down 17 nothing in a space race war fighting for space supremacy. Connor Wakeman is wearing a one of one. He's the only player on the team that wore Pluto on his helmet, which is a weird one to go. One of one with Pluto. The one that's like not even the plan. Again, not a space guy. Pluto's like not me on plan. You're giving your quarter back that weird credit to you. So no, find a way when that came good for them, man. You want to go around the times I got one more way. By the way, this will be our probably only road trip of the season as far as S goes. I don't really like doing these on the road. It doesn't feel right. I like to be at home watching and I know Liam likes to be at home. So he went out and did this thing this week and we were able to get a road trip. So we appreciate the fact that people let us do this. But we'll be back home next week and it'll feel more more comfortable and more everything else.

I got to do on my TikToks. I got to do it. You want to go around the country and hit some scores and then we'll just kind of dive Bob in dive Bob in and see where we uh where we didn't talk about somebody. Do you have uh what are we doing? Yes. Yes. Thank you very much. What are we doing? Used to be a shit list. Now it's what are we doing? Uh, I don't know if you have or do you have one month you go first? My mind just I don't know if you saw Lincoln Riley then do Trojan walk today and then show up on the field 45 minutes before kick off. That's crazy. I mean you're a head coach, your face program. Do better than that. My what are we doing is it is 2026. There might be a camera in in in this picture frame. There might be a camera in anywhere. There to in this airbnb there might be a camera every single place in here. There might be a camera everywhere you look in the world. Yet why don't we just have a very simple camera at the top of a go post that looks straight up? Is that is that crazy to ask that maybe the top of go post which is we're just a fixer that we strap a camera that looks straight up and there has a line in the middle and if it goes outside that line it's no good if it goes inside that line it's good. Why can't we have that? We have laser pointers, right? We have laser level levelers, right? Why can't we if our go posts are are you know like this? I can't even do straight lines with my hand. If our go posts are supposed to go straight to the sky. Why don't we have some sort of technology that she stores the sky and tells us the ball goes inside or outside? I don't know I don't know the answer to that question. We've long waited and we've long wanted actual camera shots that go right down your lines. We have technology for that but we don't have it and now I'm asking for this. Just point of point of camera straight in the sky and tell me where the ball went. Is that too much to ask? What are we doing? You ask where? He did miss the kick though we find that. No, no, no, no, no, no, he did miss the kick. We've seen enough angles that he missed that kick. I think the one from the back and to the right is the best angle and he missed the kick. But the fact that we ought to be able in the broadcast to just snap our fingers. Look at it. Oh, he missed the kick. There's nothing. There's no discussion here. We don't have to go on Twitter for two hours after the game and try to figure this out. So going around the country and in the FBS, let's go to the ACC. All right, PIT. 35-33 over Virginia Tech last night. The very game we're talking about. It is a shame makes an high-end show that got hurt. Torres ACL. Very good quarterback. That sucks. No damn 37 North Carolina 26. Why did North Carolina keep it close with Notre Dame Liam? We were at Mississippi State Brandon. Oh, yeah. We ain't by the way. CJ car four touchdowns and act like we watched something that we did. I don't know. CJ car four touchdown passes, 290 yards passing. SMU's 25 Boston College 16, weight four is 57-3 over Stanford. Syracuse 42, Yukon 41 and over time. Shout out to Syracuse for getting that road win. 48-38-7 over UVA. Here's your Cal Golden Bears. UNLV 39, Cal 31. That just can't be what Cal envisioned when they hired that new coach. NC State 31, Louisville 28. We talked about that one and Miami ends up finishing off Clemson 41 to 13 in a game that It feels like it was closer than that for a while, but Miami just an overwhelming amount of talent on that football team as they are clearly the class of that conference. And maybe the class of the country will find out later. Iowa State in the big 12, 45 West Virginia, 42. I thought West Virginia had one of the funniest rushing lines. I was looking at the stats. Cam Cook's his name right, Cam Cook and Michael Hawkins. They both had like 140 yards, let me pull this up. I want to get this right, I'm gonna go stats here. This is rushing yards for West Virginia. God dang it. Bottom line is they had two running backs, or a quarterback and a running back. They ran for like 150 yards of peace and nobody else carried the ball. They had 40 carries between them, and that's a lot of wear and tear for a team that runs the ball so constantly, and they ended up losing that game, 45-42. Let's go more of big 12. Houston 27-17 over UCF. Once again, UCF was up 17, nothing. And Houston scored the last 27 points of that game. Kansas 55, Middle Tennessee State, nothing. BYU 17-10 over TCU and Texas Tech 29, Colorado 7, Texas Tech just dominated the second half of that game. Yes, Liam. You wanna talk about another team who might be looking at a new coach this off season. - The Colorado Buffaloes. - TCU. Oh, what, what the Colorado Buffaloes to? - Well, yes, but I found that one is a lot more obvious and probably should have happened. Last year, you probably should have stopped down. TCU was looking for a way out last year, and they have won a few games too many. They're not good. The Ireland, Ireland curse isn't a good thing. In the big 10, 34-13, Northwestern destroys Penn State. Maybe Northwestern, keeping close to Indiana ages very, very well for both of those teams. Minnesota 20, Michigan 14. Wisconsin 31, Michigan State 3. How back is Wisconsin? I mean, this is a team that they lost in order to start the season, you think you have an opinion about them. And now, back to back weeks, they go on the road and they beat Penn State and how they kill Michigan State, where Pepper Cheryl's just not having a good time getting them going. Though Ohio State 31, Iowa 14, Nebraska 48, 23 over Maryland, that was a little bit close for a while too. Produced 24, Illinois 17, Nebraska by the way, 5 and 0 with Indiana coming in next week. - That'll be a blast. - And we will be watching that. - We will not be there. I will be in Eugene for UCLA, Oregon. - Oh, I did this whole speech earlier about how this was our only trip. And this isn't your only trip this week. Okay. USC 25, Washington 21, and Indiana 47, 15, over Rutgers in the South Eastern Conference. We'll go to, oh, what's happened with the brewers there? Dodgers won, right? Dodgers beat the breaks. All right, Alabama 56, 23 over Mississippi State. I saw it. It was not that close. Almost not that close. Georgia 38, 14 over Vanderbilt, Georgia, Alabama next week. Biggest SEC game of the year, so far. Tennessee 24, Auburn 14. Again, it bears monitoring what's happening with the quarterbacks there. Mizzou 45, 17 over Florida. Shout out Austin Simmons, 340 yards for three touchdowns I think. Kentucky 35, South Carolina 34. If you, by the way, I'm not going to do that. But if your crusade online is to rail against, however, or the SEC is, then I think the number next to Kentucky's name in the near future might do that. Texas A&M 34, Arkansas 7, and then LSU 63, NACE 14. What else you got, Liam? Well, we did talk about a few things, Brown Walker. I need to serenade you in the trip to Starkville this week, but I also need you bring it up. Last night, I went to bed, 'cause we had early morning. I didn't see the last quarter and a half of Montanestade, Idaho, number one Montanestate, Windless Idol. Did you end up seeing what happened in this game? So the team with the ball and was losing, tried to throw pass or ran a play, and then there was almost zero second stuff and the guy called time out. There's one second left and Brent vegan called a time out to set his defense up. That game was over and then didn't call a time out to set his defense up on the two-point conversion. I don't, I don't even know how that happened. That doesn't even seem, that didn't even seem like a legitimate thing a coach would ever do. I, he, like, I like vegan. I think he's got good future. He was in for the Oran State job. He withdrew his name like he's a great coach. He contradicted himself so much. I just, I just think he had a complete brain fart. I've never seen it like he pressed the wrong button on the controller. - All right, I don't care. Give me, give me some of the flowers. - Okay, fair, you're right. People kept saying Liam Blutman, you're making the mistake going to Starkville for your first SEC experience. All those people stopped talking, please. This was my decision. I wanted to be here. I made the right decision. I think that this was a phenomenal first SEC place to go because I got to see, it's a smaller town brand. It's a nice little intimate cute place. It's phenomenal here. I loved every single baby. I love West Point. You guys will tell me, oh Blutman, you're gonna need to drive from Memphis to Starkville. Bologna, I love that drive. It was phenomenal. They didn't even feel like two hours. Drive on the open roads, great. Go in and hang out with Uncle Donnie and see Mama Walker and everything. The four wheeler, the woods. It's a completely different walk of life that I've never experienced. I loved every single bit of it. I love the food. Yeah, I said Chicago food scourge. It's not garbage, but it's not Lee. It's not a world class, whatever. Mississippi foods for now. I hate some of the best food I've had in a long, long time here. So thank you for that. Thank you for showing me around. One thing I really didn't enjoy was when we were in West Point brand and there's very small town. And I really enjoyed seeing people come up to you and just everyone knew everyone. And I liked that and how proud people were of you and seeing someone from West Point make it big time. I thought that that was very cool. The guy coming up to you, calling you hometown hero. It was very funny and cool to see. So I thank you for that. And everyone at Mississippi State Maroon and Co. Got shot my brand to launch out. No free ads. They were great to us. Mississippi State was amazing. The cabbels weren't incredible. And there's more and a lot is fine. So there's more life than watching ball and sin on the couch, dude. I want to get to more places in my life before I get to older, die or whatever. And I think that this was a great, great-- get Mississippi State one point. It was a great, great experience. And I thank you and Cody for it and letting me come and annoy you guys. Yeah, so one thing that sucks about the last couple of years, I just wanted to bring cameras down here and show people the surf was pretty awesome. And all the online narrative about it's wrong because people are just stupid. But we've got to make the putt, man. Well, we're getting on the green here. What a great weekend, the hearty concert. And Sartwell is phenomenal when it's on fire. There's just everywhere you go. It's incredible. Sartwell Cafe for breakfast. Like it's-- yeah, I tip the weights just $100. Like it's just so amazing and so fantastic. Just got to finish. We've got to finish the drill here. One of these days, we're going to win these big games. And it's going to be awesome. Anyway, we're drawing it on. That's a good hour for tonight. We'll be back Monday. I'll have all my tweets out in a minute. I don't think I have anything else left for you. Not a great week of calls for ball. Next week, Georgia, Alabama, Indiana, Nebraska, several others. But yeah, it's a good stopping point. We had a good time. We'll see you back in Chicago Monday night. That's the Brandon Walker calls for ball show.
