Since we are in hour number three, it is 2.05. That means that we are 25 hours in 25 minutes from Oregon State kicking off their college football season. Almost a day. And that means that we are a mere-- oh boy, math hard for-- 27 and 1/2 hours. Did you almost say math hard for daddy? Yeah, math hard for daddy. 26 and 1/2 hours. 26 and 1/2 hours from Oregon kicking off the season against Idaho. It was a lot easier when it was just 25 minutes. That was easier for me. 25, 25. I don't mean math hard. Did you go to math school? I didn't go to math school. I didn't go to math school. That's a problem. I want you to directional school. We're going to tell you to go up, down, left, or right. Yeah, now we're down. Never eat soggy waffles. Ooh. Got to make the Ls. Do we need never eat soggy waffles? My wife says it all the time. But did we need that for Northeast Southwest? No, the pneumatic one never really made sense to me why you needed to go down. It's up, down, right, left. Up, up, down, left, right, left, right, a, b, b, a, start. Yeah, and then you get unlimited lives. Duh. That's how you-- that's how you don't die in the woods. Now, I know that really well. That and don't pet the bears. Or the bison. Don't boot the snoot of the murder kitten. Don't do it. And also stay very clear of the bison. That's right. Or bison, depending on if you're from North Dakota or not. If you're not from North Dakota, it's bison. If you are, it's bison. Bison. I got scolded by our engineer, Kent. Former engineer of Odyssey, Kent Randles. I said bison on an update one time. And I think it was like the only time he listened to the sports station. But he came storming back from the rack room. And he was like, it's bison. And he's like, I went to North Dakota State. And I was like, all right, cool. With a Z, done. And since that's scolding, I've never called them the bison again. Well, you know, it's like he got some of those cities that get all uppity too about saying their name incorrectly. Yeah, like Boise. Not Boise. Not Boise. Yeah, Boise. Boise. Or, you know, Baltimore. Louisville. Well, Baltimore is more Baltimore. Yeah, Knoxville. Yeah. Yeah. But then it's Nashville. Yeah. Like, it's like, it's in Tennessee. You can't Knoxville me on one side, and Nashville me on the other. Go super nasally. Come on. You got to help me out here. Yeah, no. Like I said, I dated a girl at North Dakota State. So I was always-- I was always bison. All right, yeah. There we go. Bison. There you go. Bison, bison. All right, we are there, ladies and gentlemen. It is time for the final matchup of the College of World rivalry trophy edition. 64 and only one will leave. Oregonians are disgusting. You hear those drums? OK, yeah, we are. Yes, the platypus took on the Floyd of Rose Day. Yep. Yep. And the platypus built-- built-- beat. We got to eat. Neither of us can worry this week. We're good. We're good. I'm just so excited for football. My brain is mush. The Floyd of Rosevale has been upset by the stupid platypus. OK. So platypus is in the championship. Regional bias, we knew that this would be at play. I will give you a little little factoids about the platypus trophy. And these factoids, they should tell you all you need to know about how this vote should go. All right? Back in 1959, University of Oregon's director of public services named Willard Thompson. He reached out to a guy named Warren Spadey and said, hey, man, the Civil War needs a trophy. We need to do this. And I got an idea. Half a duck, half a beaver, that's a platypus. He went to Spadey and was like, you got this? Can you do this? Spadey's like, I got this, man. I have the vision. I have the idea. Thompson gave him one month to create the trophy. Gave him a single month because it's a hand-carved trophy out of wood. OK? He was like, I can't even finish it. He didn't have enough time. So if you look at the platypus trophy, it doesn't have detailed feet. It doesn't have feet at all. I mean, you could just say it doesn't have detail. It is two feet wide, 18 inches tall and unfinished. When the trophy was first handed out, Oregon was heavy favorites over the beaves in 1959. Oregon State ended up winning 15 to 7. They took the trophy, put it in Gil Colosseum, put it on display. Oregon students broke in, stole the trophy. I do love a good trophy stealing. After that, it was stolen several times back and forth and ended up disappearing. They ended up finding it in the pool at University of Oregon where the water polo teams apparently had taken it over and started giving it back and forth, not the football teams. It then went missing again. So they weren't smuggling grapes. They were smuggling trophies. Yeah, that's right. And it was found in the trophy case of the swimming pool during a renovation of the area. It's been given back and forth to the two teams since 2007. And the beaves since then have only one four times since 2007. Oregon has dominated the trophy since then. In total, the trophy has been handed back and forth 20 times. Oregon has taken it home 14 times. Oregon State has taken it home 6. So the platypus trophy is unfinished, was rushed into production, has a great idea, the execution. Very flawed. Very flawed. Very flawed. Has no reason being here. OK. So let that sit. All right. Who will it be taking on? The Fremont Cannon of Nevada UNLV took on the saddle and the cannon absolutely trapped in the saddle. All right. It was not close. OK. I got some backstory and history of the Fremont Cannon too. It is a replica of a 19th century howitzer cannon that accompanied explorer and later politician of the great state of Nevada, John C. Fremont on an expedition to the American West. The original cannon that Fremont took with him was abandoned in the Sierra Nevada Mountains in 1843. They said, in 1970, you know what we need to do? In 1969, actually, they said, you know what we need to do? We need to get a trophy for this robbery game. Nevada Reno hates UNLV. UNLV hates Nevada Reno. We need a trophy. Let's get this thing done. They went out and they constructed the most expensive and heaviest rivalry trophy of any trophy that is given out in college football. OK, the trophy itself weighs 545 pounds. It has a 55 millimeter barrel and cost $10,000 to build, making it the heaviest and most expensive trophy in the rivalries of college football. In addition to that, up until the year 2000, every time that the trophy was given to a school, if your team had the ball score to touchdown, they fired that bad boy off in the stadium. Do love me a good cannon firing. They obviously had to stop that. This rivalry is so bitter. Well, BTSD. And in true Nevada fashion, before alcohol sales were widely allowed across college football, they allowed the sale of alcohol to Nevada Reno and UNLV fans. They had to stop doing that because there were too many fights in the stands between UNLV and UNR fans. I mean, I think this trophy, it's glorious. When your team wins it, you paint it your school colors. They paint the wheels of it red, UNLV wins, navy blue and Nevada Reno wins. It is a gold massive cannon that is absolutely awesome. The Fremont Cannon for UNLV and Nevada Reno. It is now posted up on @danimering on Twitter. You can find it on @danimdusty@tinythefan or my social media accounts on Twitter. Get your votes in and vote with your brain, not with your art. Yeah, yeah. I think we need to-- I think it's time we finish the platypus trophy. We got to finish the platypus trophy. I think we restart, we give somebody enough time, and we make this thing as spectacular as the rivalry between Oregon and Oregon State has been. Thank you. Thank you for your time. Thank you for your time. Somebody wants to take this thing on and figure out how to finish the platypus. Then we can talk about it. Ooh, yeah. I am not that man. I am not a woodworker. I don't know. I think it should be chiseled out of volcanic rock from one of our mountains here in the great state of Oregon. I think that'd be good. So. Coming up next, we will talk about those games that are due to be underway in 25 hours and 20 minutes and 26 hours in 20 minutes. Hercules! Hercules! Oregon and Oregon State both get underway here in a little more than a day. Danny and Dussyton are the fan. You spent it over here.

Talk about what we would or wouldn't learn from Colorado in a win or a loss against North Dakota State. I think you can say essentially the exact same thing is true for the Oregon Ducks and the Oregon State Beavers. They take on the Idaho Vandals and the Idaho State Bobcats? A Bengals. They're the Bengals. Did you see what they did? Big Bengal population in Pocatello. Yeah. Did you see what their social media team did tonight? No. There was a big beaver space. And their official Twitter page went into the space and just blared the Idaho State anthem over and over and over and over again at like full bore. Yeah. It was hilarious. The home of Jared Allen. Yeah. That's where Jared Allen played at Idaho State. Big, big. You got Mark Solarith at Idaho and Jared Allen at Idaho State. So you know, home of large white men. You know what? You're not wrong in that. It was was was what were Idaho and Idaho State like finalists for Suke? Ooh. No, he was too highly recruited. I think I think they probably came a column. They were knocking on that door like a large, large bearded white men. You fit about, but Suke back in the day, he had a baby face. That's right, he did. He didn't have that same angry face. He looked completely different. He looked like Will Orner. No, like even more baby face than Will Orner. It was, it's alarming when you see an old picture of Suke because you go, ah, that ain't right. He didn't let the hate in his heart take full hold yet. No, no. But look, I'm excited though to see Oregon State play to Ohio State beat, not because, and I'm with you on, I don't think we're going to get. There's nothing to learn here. A great learning of, I mean, if the game is close and it's not good, that is obviously a horrible sign. I don't expect that though. What I'm excited to see is how the pieces are fitting together there. When you have so many guys that leave and you have so many guys come in through the portal in very important positions for them, especially the offensive line where you're mixing in guys like Joshua Gray and Grant Stark, who are the guys who have been there and established themselves with the Colorado transfers. And you have, you know, such a new mix continuity on the offensive line, it takes a little bit of time. But where they are at, at this point in the year, I'm excited to see that to see Giovanni McCoy at quarterback. And really, we're gonna see all of their quarterbacks, but to see McCoy and Gold Branson and what that separator was between those guys in fall camp, that to me, I'm excited to see from Oregon State. Will we learn a whole heck of a lot about them? No, and I don't expect us to see. You've learned anything more. What is it? 28 and a half. Yeah, and that seems right. That feels right. 20 and a half and the total is 54 and a half. And also, I'm interested to see what the offense looks like, you know, when you now are going from having Jonathan Smith, the stability and the known of what you were gonna get offensively. Now you bring in Ryan Gunderson, who obviously his background here in the state, being from Central Catholic, playing at Oregon State, starting his coaching career with the beavers, then goes down and spreads his wings at UCLA in San Jose State and kind of finds his own footing as a play caller and as a coach. What this offense looks like and how different is it from what we were accustomed to seeing with Jonathan Smith prior? You have new tools. You have a quarterback who is more mobile and will be able to get you out of some hairy situations. Don't think that we're gonna see a whole heck of a lot of that from the Beavers this week, but just to see the variations of what this team can throw at you. Also, like Jabari Johnson too, the red shirt freshman, the Missouri transfer. Look, there was a three-way battle down there for that quarterback, McCoy, Branson, and Johnson. I'm interested to see all three of them and how each of them fit stylistically into what Oregon State's gonna be in the future. And then, look, we talked about this last week. It's a completely different built wide receiver room. You know, small, shifty, last year it was, will they have it that red zone target? Are they gonna have the big guy on the outside? Now they go like 6-2 across the board at wide receiver. It's gonna be- - Quite the pivot. - We have so many, but you lose the explosive guys. Like, I mean, we talked about this with Silas Bolden at Texas and what he's doing there and opening eyes in Texas going, dude, wide receiver two for the Texas Longhorns was an Oregon State beaver a year ago. You know, Anthony Gould and the impression that he made through training camp in the preseason of the NFL. Like, they had playmakers, man. - Six of the top 100 in most impactful transfers this year were Oregon State Beavers. - Yeah, and so it's gonna be different. It will be new. And then just seeing the command of the game and flow of game that Trent Bray has on the sideline, I'm excited to see what Oregon State - It's going to be different. - rolls out there tomorrow. It's gonna be completely different. And it's not a bad thing. I think that it's a terrible situation that Oregon State was put in with the dissolving of the Pac-12 to what it is. But to see this team come out in the level of competition, that's what I'm going to have my eye on because we learned something last night too with Colorado's offensive line. It won just the transfers, right? And they got two of them that are going to be starting on Oregon State's offensive line that we're at Colorado a year ago. And to see what Kyle Devan's coaching and in that offensive system, what those guys look like and how the pieces fit, that's going to be intriguing to me. And for Oregon and Idaho, look, - Did you see the line there? - With 14 and a half, 43 and a half. - It's gone up. - Yeah, this is a Idaho team. And this is what sucks about the FCS is that the transfer portal comes in, they raid their guys. If you sniff talent, right? McCoy now at Oregon State. - And if you want to get a look at the dust. - And he woods down at Utah now, that's their quarterback and their running back. I mean, they lost-- - Tough. - A receiver to the NFL. They lost to another receiver to the transfer portal and went to the University of Charlotte. You know, those are the tough breaks for a team that made the quarterfinals a year ago, comes in at the preseason number seven, but will look entirely different, especially with Lake Oswego's Jack Lane at quarterback. And it's not his first start ever, but we are going to see him as the starter for the Idaho Vandals. - And if you are looking to get a look at the ducks, I know the game is technically sold out, secondary market that you can get them for nine bucks online. - Oh, that's a standing room. - Yeah. - Yeah, yeah. - So. - And that's going to be, this is the, I'm excited because we have an FCS opponent coming into odds and stadium. - And it's a packed house. - It's sold out, it's sold out a week in advance. - What's new odds and now is it 48? - No, 58. - 58, 58. - Yeah, yeah. So it's, and I don't know how long people are going to be around for. - I mean, it's halftime is when people probably start rolling, but you know. - But that, and that's what I'm excited to see from Oregon is it's not the starters. Hopefully you don't see them for very long. - Quarter and a half at most. - Right. - Maybe a half. - Like hopefully that's the way that the game goes. You get a cam rising like performance. - You still get your own. - You just go 304 tuddies and you pack it up. - We're out. And then you get to start seeing Dante Moore and Austin Novasad and Luca Moga because these freshman quarterbacks now, or all freshmen players, you got four games that you can play in. And so you can start seeing some of those guys seeing some of the young freshmen that came in as highly touted recruits and what they look like on the field because we may not be able, we may not see them again. I could tell you one thing though. This team looks different, right? Like there used to be times, and when we had Jerry on, we talked about this, right? Like there used to be times where, like when Jonathan Stewart showed up, you're like, "Oh, he's different." Even as a freshman, you're like, "Oh boy." - Why are his legs as big as tree trunks? - And on Shameless Plug for the program podcast, Cole Linnahan tells the story of his first game of actually playing was in Houston, playing the University of Houston in NRG Stadium down there. And he was like, "Yeah, that's also when we knew that that Jonathan Stewart guy was gonna be really stinking good because he carried seven Houston Cougars as like an 18-year-old, dragged them into the end zone. On a run, he's like, "Yeah, that's..." We found out he was for real. But these guys and these freshmen that are coming in, you stand, you see them individually and you're like, "God, he is muting out there." But then you put him next to everybody else and they just kind of blend in. That's the biggest difference. That's the biggest difference now is that these highly touted freshmen don't stand out like they used to when they'd come in. They look like guys. And there's a lot of them at Oregon right now. And that's one of the exciting things that we'll be able to see a lot of the young up-and-comers for the University of Oregon that maybe we won't see very, very many times this season. I think NCAA slipped this end on us this week too and lost in all of the football pollues that we've had this week. The NCAA also has said that bowl games in college football playoff games are non-counters to that four-game limit too. - And that's great. I was looking at Oregon's schedule right now. Boise State, I don't think you're gonna get the young guys out there. Oregon State. - That's a very good group. That's a team that a lot of people believe will make the college football playoff out of the group of five. - And look, I don't think Boise State's going to beat Oregon in any way. Would I be surprised that game got close? - No. - No, it's Oregon Boise State. - Yeah, like that number one, that rivalry when even when it was really cooking and Oregon had more talent, Boise State still punched them in their mouth a couple times. And Aston Gente is a dude. - He is a dude. - I mean, there's a reason why he's a legitimate Heisman candidacy to start the season. - Got them dawgs. - But you can probably get those young guys out there against UCLA. - I don't know. - I just feel like that team's going to be so bad. - But your travel squad is paired down, so I mean, I don't know. - But I'm trying to look at like when they could happen again, Illinois, Maryland. - I don't know. - Those are probably your only real opportunities. So if you're a duck fan, you want to see-- - You're far between, that's for sure. - If you want to see what the next generation of guys looks like and you want to get an idea, like, look, if you're a college football fan, you've watched Dylan Gabriel throw the ball. You've watched him throw it a lot. - Like every arm slot imaginable. But if you want to get out there and watch Oregon actually mash, I don't, and see what Mogo or Moore or-- - No upset. - I never said looks like, or any of the younger linemen or any of the guys on the wide receivers that are deeper on the bench. - There's a lot of young defensive players too that you're going to go, oh, okay. - It's a good way to get excited, I think, for college football coming back. - 100%. - Speaking of coming back, we're back with Jeff Russ. Oh, and I finally had to do his 2/30 itch, which we will hit next here on Danny and Dusty, Danny and the fan. - It's Friday afternoon, it's 2/30-ish, which means it's time for America's favorite game show, Jeff Russ, oh, Jeff Russ, take it away. - I don't know if you guys are aware of this. College football, finally here. - Football Friday here. - In full effect. - Official. - Yeah, Dylan Gabriel making his Oregon debut, the number three ducks host to Idaho, coverage on the fan starts at 11. Oregon, 43 and a half point favorite, so we should expect to see a lot of the backups get some play. If Dylan Gabriel takes the field in the second half, cause for concern, no big deal. - I would say cause for concern. - Cause for concern, yeah, I would 100% go down that lane. - Uh-huh. - That's a problem, man. - Yeah, nothing good, bro. - Oregon's win total this season set at 10 and a half. Pretty much everywhere you look, over. - Ooh, under 10 and a half wins for the Duxus here. - God, it's probably one of the best lines in college football. It is dumb hard to pick that. - Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna go over. - I wanna say over. I really do. I think they're gonna beat Ohio State. I think they're gonna lose on the road. - Yeah. Who cash just this bull record? Play-off? - I don't know. We'll just go regular season here, yeah. - I'll soak it over. - That's why I think I'm going. I wanna say 11 wins. I really do. I really do. - Yeah, regular season win total. - Yeah, but the fact that they're at Michigan at Wisconsin. - You only get one? That means you get one slip up. - Yeah, and that's what I was saying. I think they only do lose one, but the opportunity to lose that second one late in the year at Wisconsin is just hanging in there. - Some analytics, bro, did a chart of how many mulligans each team in college football is afforded this year, and it was wild because it had Oregon with two to still make the play-off. - Okay, I get the idea. - How many mulligans each team? - They could lose two. Ohio State and Michigan still make. - And still make the play-off? - Yeah, I believe that's true. - What was really interesting to me was that like Oregon State had more mulligans than Washington did to make it to the play-off. - Does Washington's schedule really suck? - Yeah, because I think it was like, you get one if you are Oregon State. And that's Oregon, but you gotta keep that one close, right? But it was a weird chart, it was very confusing to me, but it was basically saying that the path for Oregon State has more opportunities for you to get in than Washington. I was like, that's bizarre. - Washington plays Michigan, Iowa, USC, Penn State, Oregon. - Yeah. - How could they have less? - I don't know. - I don't know if you guys saw this. There's a Barstool fella who he says he's personally guarantees Ohio State will go 12 and 0, and he lists all of their opponents and for each opponent, there's a different like, you know, wager if they lose that game. - For Oregon's, he says he'll eat 10 yellow marshmallow duck peeps for every point Oregon scores. - Oh. Wow. - So figure they score 32 points, let's say, that's 320 peeps. - So it would say, okay, so it was Mulligan's, Georgia has three. Alabama and Oregon have two. Then there's a bunch of teams that have one, zero, which is you just gotta win the games, just win 'em all. And then it was how many upsets you need to have. Washington needed three upsets to make it. Oregon State only needed two. That was the way that the chart was formed. So I think in that terms with the schedule that you read, there it is, upsets needed, Oregon State, they need to, obviously, if you upset Oregon, and then you win out on your schedule, yeah, you're probably dancing, because that would be Oregon State and Boise State would probably be the two upsets that they would need as of right now. And so if you win those two, you're winning all the rest of your games. - Yeah, well, in theory. - Well, in theory, in this case. So, yeah, that was the chart. I felt it needed context there. - I like it. - Speaking of Oregon State, the post Jonathan Smith era begins tomorrow. They host Idaho State. The Beaves, 28 and a half point favorites. As Trent Bray takes the reins, 330 kick on the sea dub, Giovanni McCoy named the starter, Bengal Branson, Jabari Johnson, expect to see time this season as well. The Beaves over under is seven and a half wins. So, over, under seven and a half wins for Beaves. - Oh, boy. (upbeat music) - God, that is a really tough one, because there's so many unknowns. - They're good at this. - Well, they are really good at this, because you have Boise State, Oregon, San Diego State, Purdue, Purdue, and maybe UNLV, as those games that they're saying are the ones that are losses on there. - I get to five wins. Pretty straightforward. Six, yeah. - They have so many toss-up games. What happens with Purdue? What happens with Cal? What happens with Washington State? - Mm-hmm. - That's a really tough one, because we truly have no idea. - Air Force is always a weird one. - No, Air Force is. You have to go to Fort Collins. You have to play them right after you play San Jose State, which I'm here to tell you, you don't have a bi-week in between. That's a weird system change to go from spread to-- - Fear option, fear. - Yeah. - I don't like that. - That's got to be maybe the worst change in sports, as far as like stylistically. We're gonna play 53 to third, and also these guys, mm-hmm. They're gonna tax you mentally. State, trust your reads, trust your reads. - The entire game relentless. - All 54 plays they're gonna run. - Nope, no thank you. - I'm gonna take the under. - I think they're bull eligible, but I think Seven's the number. - Okay, I'm gonna go under. - Well, we talked about them quite a bit earlier. Dion Sanders in Colorado, surviving a close call with North Dakota State last night, 31-26. All it took was 445 yards and four touchdowns from Shudor Sanders. Three of those going to Travis Hunter, who's on the field for 129 of the Buffalo's 131 snaps. One of those snaps that he missed, he was forced off the field because his helmet had come off on a play. So they're now one and O on the season, their win total in Vegas is five and a half. So, over, under five and a half wins for Colorado. - Under, under, under the hesitate. I look at that schedule, under. - Kinda seems like a pretty easy one. I have to watch in the last night. - And be, look, we've settled about Washington. You can be a different team at the end of the season. But by different, I think Colorado could suck more. - But I have far less questions about the coaching at UW than I do at Colorado. - Not like that, but you know what the talent is at Colorado. You know it's hanging on by a thread of Shudor and Travis Hunter. - Yeah. - And I should say, Horne Jr. is also in that list. - Jim Horne Jr. - But other than those three guys, it's, the talent disparity is significant. And I just don't believe it. - We'll do one more quickie here. We're kind of coming up against it, right? - Sunday evening, number 23 USC and number 13 LSU from Vegas 430 on ABC. The Bayou Bengals are four point favorites. Who you got, USC, LSU. (upbeat music) - Wait, do you say the Bayou Bengals or LSU? - No, I said USC or LSU. - Okay. - Right, LSU. (humming) - Yeah, he's wearing his hat. It's okay. - You're wearing a fight on hat. - I am. - I think we all knew which way he was going to do this. - This is the only song we play. (laughing) - Alrighty. - I am not comfortable with that game. If you're asking me outright or the points, give me the points and I'll take it. - Yeah. - The hand up, hand up Vancouver for a text line, text police getting me. Fort Collins, Colorado State. Colorado Springs, Syracuse. - Oh, did you say Fort Collins? - I did, I did. - I was at the academy now. - Hand up. - My bad. - Hand up. - Alrighty. - Colorado, it's all the same. - That's right. - It's better like this mouth. - Yeah, they gotta go to Durango to play Air Force. - Oh, the same. - Play below. - Yeah, that's right. - That's a hellscape. - Colorado State University, Pueblo, that's a D2 power. Where's Colorado School of the Mines? Where's that at? I got a good football throw. - Probably up in the mountains. - Yeah, oh, would make sense. - If it's the Colorado School of the Mines, they might be buying some glass. - Golden Colorado. - Dude, no wonder they're so good. They're like, hey. - They're right at course, aren't they? - On a recruiting trip. Guess what you get? - We're gonna go dig into it. - Bank with it. - And you get the minus. - Baby. - Gotta love it. - I can actually put a nice little bow on today's show. We'll make some picks. Come on next year, and he doesn't need to attend. - 45 seconds on Portland State, go. - Okay. - Well, you have your quarterback, Sacheray, is back, yet again, through 4,700 yards last year. And Dante Sacheray is electric. He is really fun to watch at quarterback. You also have got the return of Quincy Craig, who as a running back last year, he was kind of a Swiss army knife for Barney Ball in Portland State. I'm excited for Portland State, but at the same time, have you, have you, you haven't? I'm not gonna say it. I'm not even gonna ask if you've seen their schedule. Portland State's schedule this year has got two FBS opponents in Washington State and Boise State, and then they have eight teams that are ranked in the preseason top 25 in the FCS level, and six teams that played in the playoffs a year ago. - Not bad. Not bad. 45 seconds on Portland State, ladies and gentlemen. (laughs) - They play Washington State. - There you go. (laughs) - There are some big games of consequences we can already in college football is week one. There are some stinkers, certainly. We ended the OR with number 23 USC, again, number 13 LSU, but there's also another top 20 matchup between Notre Dame, Texas A&M. It is the game that has not been getting a lot of discussion, a lot of billing for a reason I don't really understand. - I think people, maybe Elko at Texas A&M is finally the coach. He's like, "Hey, if we just shut up." - Let's maybe cool down on these expectations here for a little bit and maybe prove that we deserve a seat at the table before we start talking about it. - Yeah. - We have one stupid video come out of Texas A&M this summer. - We have had a stupid photo yesterday. They tweeted out one of the more disgusting things I have seen. It was, I mean, this really drove it home that they are a cult. They have sausage wraps, where they have sausage wrapped in tortillas. And apparently, in College Station, Texas, that's a tailgate delicacy. - Normal thing. - It's just a sausage wrapped in a tortilla. - I feel like that should be a tech. - You would think, now they're too busy throwing those tortillas at people. But this hammer's home, Texas A&M is a cult because the only people that eat that are in cults, and you get that sausage wrap right before you get your Kool-Aid and then put your little Nike's on and go to the bunk beds. (laughing) That school terrifies me. It is, it terrifies me, man. - So we're talking like a sausage link? Just a basic sausage link in a tortilla. - Yeah. It's like they went to Costco, got some Costco dogs, and we're like, wrap this in a tortilla. - The tortilla is the best delivery mechanism for food. - It's the finest food in college station right here. - I'm doing a little cheese in there or anything. - No. - It's haunted. - I said what I said. - It's haunted. - It's a sausage wrapped in tortilla, and people were like, "Yeah, I can't wait!" No other-- - Texas A&M, you can get in the door for tickets as low as $147. - Yikes, so bored. - They are still delusional, just quiet about it. - A&M, three point favorites. We got, not a pain. - I would as well as discussing that is. The other big one, obviously Clemson, Georgia, 11 and a half point favorites, which way are you going? - Georgia, Georgia, Georgia to cover. - Ooh, to cover. - Yeah, 11 and a half? - All right. - Yeah. - I'm gonna go and say I'm gonna go dabble. I'm gonna take dabble to cover. - All right. - That's it, ladies and gentlemen. We have week one weekend football officially underway. - I can't wait. - Bum, bum, bum, bum. - I can't wait. - Then we'll catch you guys on Tuesday. - Tuesday, we're off on Labor Day. We will not be laboring on Labor Day. All right. - You're going to rage against the machine. - Let's go. - I'm in. - All right. Up next, you got four hours of power from their mouths to your ears.
