And they all wear a whistle yet. Stupid. But what did you expect? It's a podcast called 25 Whistles.

[Jerry Jones]

25 Whistles.

[Bobby Bones]

Welcome to the 25 Whistles Labor Day Special.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Yes. Holiday.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, it's just because we're doing it.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

On the holiday, which is like dedication.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, not really. DraftKings is now back on, and so we have to do it.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Oh, right, right.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So. But the Labor Day special. I've been walking around carrying a football all day.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

My wife's like, why are you carrying a football? I said, why not?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

It's got a nice little pig on it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, it does.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

It's a little flat, though. Do you want to air it up a little bit?

[Bobby Bones]

Just my Tom Brady ball.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Okay. Deflate gate.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, Tom. Yeah. That's the joke. That's the joke. Yeah. Okay. So there was football this weekend. It was pretty awesome. I. I think we'll just start at Texas and Ohio State, where I always root for the sec. Call that part of my conference homer. Except for I hate Texas more than I love the sec and they're so new.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, is that it doesn't count. Yeah, they don't count, but they're still in. It doesn't matter. I would root for Oklahoma, although that's a fan. I was so happy to see Texas see Texas lose. Sorry, Mike. Yeah. I don't even think that all of the hate on Arch Manning is fair. He didn't have a good game, but he also. He also played probably the second or third best defense in college football. So if he were to have played Louisiana Monroe and played like that, I'd say, dude, it's over. I don't feel that bad about it. Like, it wasn't a bloodbath. No, I'm talking about. I'm talking about Arch Manning. Just specifically. Yeah, Texas defense is really good. Really good. Yeah. And they had to play in Columbus. I was very happy to see Texas lose. So suck it to all you Longhorns as a group. Individually, I'm sure I like you all one on one. Yes. But I. It. It's not. Arch Manning is not over yet. And they probably have some cupcakes coming up so they can kind of get that.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

They do, they do.

[Bobby Bones]

The problem with having cupcakes, though, is you never know if you're fixing things until you have to play another team that's halfway decent to good. But, Mike, who does Texas have coming up? San Jose State. Cupcake. Yeah, we have some cupcakes. That's an arch. Manny, warm up. They need that.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

But you know what? You're right, though. Our sucks here, dude. We're in trouble.

[Bobby Bones]

What else you got? We have utep, Sam Houston. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Your cupcake city.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Whoa, Whoa.

[Bobby Bones]

And then Florida. Yeah. You get three cupcakes to kind of get it right. So I'm not writing Texas off, although I would love to. And if it's close, they win ties because they have the brand. But yeah, that's. That sucked for you guys. Your thoughts? I don't feel that bad after because we stayed in it. It could have been really bad. And I don't think Arch Manning looks that bad. That one interception, this throwing motion looked really weird. It was like a side. It looked worse yesterday than it did last year because I watched the games that he started last year. I was curious. I like Arch Manning, which is what's weird because he has really a despicable thing on his helmet. That horn, the orange one. Yes, despicable. But I like Arch Manning, so I'm rooting for him. So do you think the pressure got to. I don't think so. I think the Ohio State defense got to him.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

It was nasty.

[Bobby Bones]

It was nasty. You're. I mean, again, you're looking at two of the top three defenses in the country. So, boom. Now, I made a bet before the season started. I put a pretty semi substantial bet on Lenora Sellers doing the Heisman. He's South Carolina Quarterback. I felt really good after that yesterday. Now he only threw. I don't have the stats in front of me for like 209, but he rushed for 25 or 30, but really made some great throws. He and really look like a large, strong human, which he is a large, strong human. And if you watch the SEC any given Saturday, I think you like him more after watching that. He's just a big dude. And he moved up from like fifth to second yesterday in the Heisman odds on DraftKings. I think Garrett Nussmeier is the dude right now. Man, he played awesome. That guy is. And I think you like him more if you watch Any given Saturday on Netflix. Him and the brothers at LSU that play linebacker.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, the Weeks brothers.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah. All three of them are there now. They're awesome. And the middle brother is a stud. Yeah. And he played all game. Played really well for most of the game. But they. LSU won. First time that Brian Kelly's won an opener in like 27 years, I think.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Pretty cool. Yeah. 47 years. Maybe. Maybe I messed that up.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, I couldn't remember. I think the over under was 25.

[Bobby Bones]

But LSU beat Clemson 17 10. And Clemson can also suck it. Texas can suck it and Clemson can suck it. Eddie, what's your beef with Clemson?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I mean, I just don't understand, like a couple of things. I'm watching the game and the fact that they have a locker room on the wrong side of the stadium where they have to get into a bus. Everyone's waiting on them to show up. They load on the bus, they drive around the stadium, get out the bus, and then they run down a hill. Like, guys, you're going to hurt yourself. If not a player, a coach is going to die trampling down that hill.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, Dabo flies down that thing. Yeah, dude, I like it. He does.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

But there are some other coaches, maybe like special teams coach, that are struggling down that hill. We may lose one of them at some point.

[Bobby Bones]

It reminds me of the cheese hill, Mike, a little bit. Oh, yeah. Where they have to chase the cheese down the real, real steep hill. Yeah. We should do a side by side of the players running down the Clemson hill. And then the people chasing the cheese down the hill and wiping out the.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

The players look a little more comfortable. The coaches don't.

[Bobby Bones]

I like it. And I don't like Clemson. I like anything that's different and is a part of tradition. It doesn't seem like it's the best use of time. The bus, all of it. But I do like it. I did like the Clemson lost. And again, to all the Clemson fans out there, individually, I probably like you, but Dabos, big time. Just on the show once. So we cursed them, and they haven't been the same since.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

They have not.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's be honest. They have not been the same since the curse. The Whistler curse, which. What we call that or. We just called it that. Never.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Now it branded it.

[Bobby Bones]

It's never been called that. We can do a couple more. The Florida State, Alabama game.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Great game.

[Bobby Bones]

And again, I root for the SEC. You know, I root for Alabama 98% of the time. I didn't root for Alabama this game because I loved that Florida State was 2 and 10 last year, completely revamped. Their quarterback was talking crap before the game to Alabama and then backed it up. So, yeah, I thought it was a great performance by Florida State. I think what sucks is Kaylin DeBoer is a really good coach. He is a. He's one. Everywhere he's been at the highest level, I just would never have followed Nick Saban. I never want to be the person that follows the guy. I. I always want to be the person that follows the guy that followed the guy. Even when I came into this job here, there was somebody that was on the air locally named Jerry House for, like, I don't know, 70 years. Like, he was on back whenever Brian Kelly lost his first home opener. His first opener in a row, you know, because he's lost, like, 47 in a row.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So. But Jerry House was on and had. They said, hey, we want you to come in right after him. I don't think I would have taken it, but they had a show on before us that failed out in, like, a year and a half. And so everybody's pallet was like, bring on the new. Came in, dominated from the start. Yeah, right. And the rest is history.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

You're like the Mike Vrabel.

[Bobby Bones]

That's right. I'm the Mike Vrabel of nothing. Actually. There's nothing similar, but I did like that they won. I hate that DeBoer is losing. He. I think he's 5 and 5 in his last 10 games. That seems somewhat accurate. Either. I made that up. I don't know.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah. Why would you make that up, though? That seems pretty.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, you might look that up. Yeah. Florida State 1 is pretty cool. Again, I'm not an ACC guy by any means, but I love when a team is written off completely. 2 and 10 last year is a pretty awesome game. I did think Nico having a really bad game was kind of hilarious. Ucla, like, brutal. Joey Aguilar plays great for Tennessee. And then Nico just plays on a worse team, though.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, that's the thing. He doesn't have the athletes, doesn't have the team around him, and Aguilar obviously does. So it's just a. A failed position for him wherever he goes in there.

[Bobby Bones]

So Tennessee with a win. That's your team. How'd you feel?

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, I felt good. Big plays, Aguilar. One thing about Nico last year was the deep ball accuracy, and Aguilar obviously showed that off. They look good, man. Syracuse isn't a bad team, and they ran them off pretty good.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think you know if Syracuse is a bad team yet.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Last year they were good. I know they lost McCoy last year.

[Bobby Bones]

They had an actual quarterback.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, yeah. But I'm just saying, week one, they look good.

[Bobby Bones]

That's like me going, you know, Alabama A M not a bad team. Yeah, we have no idea. Alabama A M is who Arkansas played. And they are an FCS school. And I think they just made FCs as well, like barely. I think they. They were on that level of high school and they were like, we need one more team. Let's bump them up. They just looked really small. We won, I think, like 52 to 7 or something.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

How much did you watch of that?

[Bobby Bones]

All of it.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Nice.

[Bobby Bones]

I left it. I should say. It was on the whole time. I watched the first half intently and they made our defense look pretty crappy at the beginning of the game. And then it was just better athletes. But.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

But did they score that seven first?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, maybe.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Or just.

[Bobby Bones]

I think their first drive. I don't even know who got the ball first. Maybe their first drive and they went. They ran through us. But it doesn't matter. We play Arkansas State next week, which we haven't done since Brian Kelly's first long and Jerry House's first.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Always coming back. Brian Kelly and Jerry?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, forever. Arkansas wouldn't play that in state rivalry because they were like, why? It's not a rivalry and we have nothing to gain. If we lose the game, we lose. If we win the game, who cares? And so they're going to play it. It's going to be played in Little Rock at War Memorial Stadium, which is a crappy old stadium they've played games in forever, and hopefully we win by like 50 or 60 and just move on.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Do you consider it a rivalry?

[Bobby Bones]

We never played them.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Oh.

[Bobby Bones]

In my life, I don't think we ever played them.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Really.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm almost certain of that.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

That's crazy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, because Frank Broyles, our old athletic director, was like, why would we play a team in state that's smaller than us that we get nothing from? If we win and it's only if we lose, will there be anyone caring about it? Yeah.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

And it's probably only them that really talk about it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Like, we want to play you guys.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So that's this week. Mike, do you see anything about Caleb? No. Did you guys just give up on it?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

No one followed him on the stat.

[Bobby Bones]

2 and 3 in his last 10 games. Oh, I said last five. No, no, no. I think he's 5 and 5 in his last 10. But you guys can let me know. They both have laptops. Oh, you do, too?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I do, too, but all I have is my notes on there. I don't have time.

[Bobby Bones]

I was moving out of the arch across that. You made notes? Yeah, I did. I did. You watch games? I did.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I watched all the games. Well, not all the games.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes, five.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

The main games.

[Bobby Bones]

I was right.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, five and five.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's go. Me.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Did you know you were right?

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't know I was right. I don't have any. I don't have any notes as far as, like, I can get to on my computer. Most of the stuff I just put in my brain and try to remember that. What is your big note?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

No. No chance I'm going to remember any of that. My big note is don't go to Ireland and play a game.

[Bobby Bones]

I know.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Like last year, Florida State goes to Ireland. They lose in Ireland, and then they win two games the entire season. Now Kansas State is 0 and 2.

[Bobby Bones]

No, they're not. They won.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

They won.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, my God. You took notes and you state one of the. No, they won at the end.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Oh, dang. I need to stop.

[Bobby Bones]

You just said you watch the games.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Watch these games all the way to the end. What if they win by.

[Bobby Bones]

They won at the end.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, they were down. Yeah.

[Brandon Marcelo]

For sure.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Okay.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

All right.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Well, then don't go to Ireland anyway.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, there are four quarters.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

They did win. Look at that. No, guys, they lost.

[Bobby Bones]

No, they didn't.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Oh, I'm looking at. Okay, I'm looking at Iowa State. Who did they play? North Dakota.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Where is that game?

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

It was in Kansas State.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Dang. 38, 35. They sure did. They came back. But anyway, still, they got.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

It's North Dakota, dude.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

They gotta beat North Dakota.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, they did.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I mean, they know they've gotta kill.

[Bobby Bones]

North Dakota, you know, before they Went over and played that game last week. The announcers talking about how a lot of the teams that play overseas, it takes like two or three weeks for them to adjust back. Wow. Yeah. If you play that first week game overseas, that week zero game, you should get week one off.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, I thought they would. Both teams played.

[Bobby Bones]

Because in the NFL. Yeah, in the NFL, if you go to Europe, you're off the next week, you get a bye week. Yeah. Because Eddie will have you losing even if you win.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Yeah, maybe you. You know what happens a lot.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you have another note?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Oh, sure. I got a lot of notes.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, my God.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I just. Back on Arch, man. And I was just gonna say the crawl the entire day was Ohio State shuts down Arch Manning. I don't think that's right. I think Arch Manning shut down himself. I really do. I know the defense was good. They put pressure on him, but Arch Manning, dude, he had some really open looks and he could not throw the ball.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I mean, the first play was pretty evident. I don't even remember the first play of the game. He throws it into the dirt. Guy wide open coming across.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. You talk about first play amped up. You're still crying because Corso's out. Your tears are still in your eyes.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

He's worried about.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Everybody was talking about Corso.

[Bobby Bones]

It was the highest rated one ever. It was crazy. Not only that, Fox flipped over.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And put it on.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

And then the Coro with the band, though, I banned. That was cool, though.

[Bobby Bones]

The fact that they negotiated that. Espn, who has it, and Fox, who was there for their big game Saturday, big new kickoff.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

They flipped over to do game day.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

That's super cool. Yeah, they all put on the Corso heads. That was cool.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, really cool.

[Bobby Bones]

Of course, I won the tux. That's legit six for six.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Did you see that in his picks?

[Bobby Bones]

Every. And not only that, every team he ever coached or played for one.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah. What a way to go out.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that was good. I hope he doesn't die soon. I know, because he had a stroke. And that's why. I mean, he's getting old. I think he's 90. Yeah, he's 90.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

That's why his voice. He slurs.

[Bobby Bones]

I think it's both. It's a stroke and an age, but probably a stroke at the age does that. So. Yeah, you hope he's. He's got some time to just chill. But if you go that hard doing one thing. And also I saw him flying public. Like, really?

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, he was in a plane.

[Bobby Bones]

He that's what I was saying.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Come on.

[Bobby Bones]

He's 90 with a stroke and there was a thing at the airport of him getting on a commercial flight when.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

He flew to Ohio.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Oh, man.

[Brandon Marcelo]

Espn.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm almost certain I don't want to go for my ninth fact check of the day, but all I'm doing is going from the brain here.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Herb street flies private.

[Bobby Bones]

Herb street does? Yeah.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

With his dog.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Him and his dog Coro on that plane with him.

[Bobby Bones]

I think they're coming from different places though. Yeah.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Well, pick them up.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, Carson back looked pretty good last night.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

He did.

[Bobby Bones]

He went 20 for 31, 205 and two touchdowns. I thought Notre Dame was going to come back and win it and also thought I text our group. I was 90% on bets this weekend. I went from 1,100 my account to like 3,700. Let's go with that. Which is a couple hundred bets, 200 bets like that. I had a four leg parlay of just money line SEC teams, plus Purdue since I have a friend that coaches Purdue. Yeah, yeah. It was all an emotion pick. Yeah. So I. I had a. Now, I'm sure it will not happen this next weekend, but I had a really excellent betting weekend.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Well, you got to enjoy it while you can.

[Bobby Bones]

I do enjoy it. That's why I'm bringing it up.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Awesome.

[Bobby Bones]

And I'm also saying it's not common, but mostly those week ones, the offenses are a little nervous to play offense. The defenses are always ahead of the offense. And so I bet the under in the South Carolina Virginia Tech game and hit that.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Unders were the big, big money. And then I had it last night on the Notre Dame game. Guess what? Hit the over on the field goal with a minute left.

[Bobby Bones]

Really?

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I had nice. No, one point, not good. I bet Notre Dame plus five and then plus eight as they were down.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Oh, that's good.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, so. Oh, I saw that one. So I ended up.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

We all saw that except Kevin.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I didn't.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

The other Kevin.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, yeah. I meant to say. Yeah, I sent it to the wrong Kevin.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Oh, really?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I was like, I'm over 90% boys. And then I got a text back from Kevin Klug this morning and he doesn't anything by betting. And he was like, hey, congrats. And I was like, oh, wrong Kevin, wrong group. Wrong group. Okay, cool. We have Brandon Marcelo coming up. Just a few minutes. What? I. Yeah, Brandon sent it to me. Thank you. Thanks for fact checking me. Brandon's running all the cameras still fact checking. Dang sure.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Off, man. Mvp.

[Bobby Bones]

Espn. This is from something called the athlete lifestyle. I never heard of this.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Is that real?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, it does say what I said, so either we're both wrong. ESPN shamefully makes Lee Corso fly southwest for final college game day.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Dang.

[Bobby Bones]

Wow. Illustrated. It is. Yeah. Okay. The 90 year old college game day icon that made the most valuable non live sports franchise for ESPN into the behemoth it is today will make his final appearance. So while the goodbyes have been heartfelt, Lee Corso isn't always living the high life. It just goes on. But yeah, I think I was right about that.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Wow. Attic.

[Bobby Bones]

All right.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Did you see it on that, on that article or where did you see it?

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Twitter, probably.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, I saw it. I saw it on Twitter.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. I wasn't in the airport and I was like, legorzo, there he is. Yeah. I do want to play one other thing from the weekend before we get to Brandon Marcelo. And they had the WWE event in Paris, Clash of Paris. And it's the greatest wrestling crowd I've ever seen. Wow.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Have they ever been overseas like that?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, they were just in Brussels. Yeah, they do Europe. But I'm gonna play John Cena coming out. And also this is John Cena, his retirement tour. Mike, would you play that? You.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

This is amazing.

[Bobby Bones]

How crazy is that?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

That's so cool.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Dang.

[Bobby Bones]

I got chills.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I wasn't even there.

[Bobby Bones]

I wasn't there either, for the record.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I was at the airport in the Southwest Lounge watching Lee Corso. Lee Corso. The other thing that was really annoying was Nebraska taking down the image of. What is it? Big. The big boy.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I didn't see that.

[Bobby Bones]

Making out with Taylor Swift.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Oh, God.

[Bobby Bones]

So after Nebraska beats Cincinnati, they put up an image and it was her. You know how she was leaned into Travis Kelsey, their engagement photo. And all they did was put up their mascot with Taylor Swift. There was nothing to it. And they got so much backlash. They took it down. Nebraska, stop being puds. There was nothing you did that was wrong. It was funny. You're like, we won. We get the girl. It was hilarious.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, that is funny.

[Bobby Bones]

They took it down.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Really?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Here's the thing about backlash. It's okay because it's engagement.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah. That's where you double down.

[Bobby Bones]

It's just engagement. Like you want engagement. And if you're getting backlash for something you didn't do wrong or illegal or you're hurting anybody, bring on the backlash. That's just people disagreeing. I couldn't believe they took it down. 1. I thought it was funny. 2. I couldn't believe they took it down. 3. I only knew about it once they took it down because that's what made the news.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Hilarious. That is so good.

[Bobby Bones]

Don't you feel like that's so weak of them to pull that down?

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Absolutely. Why even put it up?

[Bobby Bones]

Why even put it up if you're going to take it down? Yeah, you are right. So we give a thumb down to Nebraska even though they won. All right, Brandon Marcelo.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly and now I'm seriously suspicious.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, wait a minute, Sam. Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot. He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her. Now he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone.

[Bobby Bones]

Now hold up. Isn't that against school policy? That sounds totally inappropriate.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor and they're the same age.

[Bobby Bones]

Tends even more likely that they're cheating.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

He insists there's nothing between them.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, do you believe him?

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet.

[Bobby Bones]

So do we find out if this person's boyfriend really cheated with his professor. Or not.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

To hear the explosive finale, listen to the okay. Storytime podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Bobby Bones]

We have Brandon Marcelo on with us. Hey, how was it? Because I saw your Instagram story. You were near the game day desk when Corso was there. Like, what was that vibe like?

[Brandon Marcelo]

It was like everybody was. Was saying goodbye. Everybody was happy and shaking. Shaking hands, trying to get to Lee. But it was cool. It was. It's funny because, like, when he walked in and everybody was just, yay. Then Pat McAfee walks in, he's all, like, trying to get everybody all riled up, and the fans are, you know, pointing at him, going crazy. Much different atmosphere when both walked in.

[Bobby Bones]

How was it when they were actually doing the final reveal when he picked the Buckeye?

[Brandon Marcelo]

Well, like, you know, in showbiz, the. You get to see behind the curtain a little bit when you're actually there. So they're rolling the desk out at midfield, and everybody already saw the. The Buckeye.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, no.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Oh.

[Brandon Marcelo]

So they knew what was coming.

[Bobby Bones]

I didn't.

[Brandon Marcelo]

Quite the reaction you probably would hope for live.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, my wife said. We were watching it. She was like, there's no way he's gonna pull out the Longhorn. Not in the middle of Ohio State. And the first thing he ever picked was a Buckeye. She. She said, even if he believed Texas was going to win, there's no way he'd go out by picking the Longhorn. Did you feel that was true?

[Brandon Marcelo]

Yeah, I thought. I thought he would do that, too. It was. It was a perfect circle. I mean, when they picked that game, I immediately thought that he was going to pick Ohio State no matter what.

[Bobby Bones]

So, yeah, okay, let's talk about the game, because your article, and I agree with you that it's. This is not the tale of the bust of Arch Manning after. After one week. And so your article came out Saturday night, and it was false. Arch Manning's bust.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

True.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't remember the whole title. I'm a big fan, Brandon, but I don't remember the whole title of the article, but I did read it. But talk about the game and talk about maybe people are jumping to the conclusion that Arch sucks a little too early. Yeah.

[Brandon Marcelo]

I mean, being there in person and watching the game and, you know, the thing about TV when you're watching a game is you don't really get to see what's happening all across the field at every moment and. But when you're in the press box or there, you can watch other different matchups. And the thing that immediately stood out to me after the first quarter was that both defenses are stellar and incredible, but specifically their secondaries were elite. Ohio State secondary was locking down Texas receivers all game, and I, I knew why Arch Manning was holding onto the ball too long and why they were unable to complete some passes downfield. The issue, though, was that Steve Sarkeesian, as he admitted later in after the game, is that they should have called more like designed runs for Arch Manning to get him loose because he's a runner. We saw it last year. They brought him off the bench. That was primarily what got him on highlight reels, was running the ball, and they didn't let him do that. And I also think that early in that game, you know, when the routes and the receivers weren't open, he was standing there in the, in the backfield telling himself, don't take off running. Make a throw, make a play here. And I think that that hurt him. So you had all that together. I see why Arch Manning struggled. And then in the fourth quarter, you saw that he came to life. The game was on the line, he started doing some things, and Arch Manning is going to be just fine. But my biggest takeaway from the game was that Ohio State and Texas's defenses were really, really, really good. And, you know, I want to be surprised if both teams are in the College Football Playoff this year again.

[Bobby Bones]

Texas has three cupcakes in a row getting, you know, and they should because they played Ohio State first week. Like, kudos to both those schools for scheduling that week one. But how much can you actually write when you're playing teams that are so much less athletic than you?

[Brandon Marcelo]

That's good. Good question. I had to do it for years as a local, like, beat reporter covering a team. Every beat writer deals with that because there's a stretch where it's just bad stuff. And so you start working on like, like features and stuff that don't really deal with the game. It deals with the players and coaches. And to be quite honest, there's not much you can glean from an actual game against some cupcakes down the road. You know, if Arch Manning were to come out and just tear. Tear Things apart, go 29 of 30 passing for 450 yards or something like that, looks great, helps the stats, and people will have their reactions. But the reality is, is that really does not matter all that much. It really doesn't. Because against some of these teams you play, sometimes you might as well be playing against air. And I know that's a very much an insult to some programs, but it's the reality, especially when you play these FCS type teams in the lower group of five programs. These, these, those type of games in weeks have always been and are transforming more and more now as we see a greater divide between the haves and have nots in this nil era, it turns into like glorified preseason games for you to work out some kinks, try some new things and just kind of push ahead so you can prepare for the bigger ones.

[Bobby Bones]

Can Texas actually get better? Can Arch get better? Or will we really not know until they again, they play? Who do they play? Florida. Is Florida their next big game? I think, yeah.

[Brandon Marcelo]

And that's, that's the one to me, like when you go into another hostile environment that's comparable to Ohio State, that's when you'll be able to judge whether there has been improvement for Texas. But, but mostly Arch Manning. I, I, I agree with that wholeheartedly. It's not going to be at home. I mean, heck, even if, if you were playing, you know, an LSU at home, you could read into that or whatever, but you got the home. What it takes these days because of the playoff, and we saw it last year, I think fans are finally starting to realize how much the game has changed, is that most teams are probably going to have to go on the road at some point in the playoff and play in a very, very rough environment. And you got to win one of those type of games in the regular season to show that you're ready to do that. And Arch is going to have to do that this year at some point.

[Bobby Bones]

I think Caitlin DeBoer is a really good coach. I think he's a situation now that sucks for him. I talked about how I never want to follow the guy. I've had the opportunity to do that in my career, never wanted to. I want to be the guy that follows the guy that follows the guy. I want somebody to come in and bomb before I go in and save it. He's five and five in his last 10 games. He is a great coach. How does this shake out in your mind?

[Brandon Marcelo]

He's a great coach, but I think the question from the beginning was always been, is it the right fit? And I thought that was legitimate then and it's more legitimate now. Is he a coach that can coach the sec? Is this temperament made for that? The guy is super nice. You always hear that like, yeah, he's a bad, you know, a bad Employee, but he's a super nice guy. Well, he's not a bad employee. It's just that his temperament doesn't really fit in the sec. I think in the sec, to be a head coach, you got to be an ass in a lot of ways. You got to be paranoid. You got to be on it all the time. You got to have boundaries. Know when to say yes and no around people who ask for your time. And Kaylin DeBoer is just a very friendly guy with his players, too, but also with just people around the community and facility. And you wonder if that, like, comes across in the. In on game days. I mean, you watched a game I. The effort by the defense, especially the loafing at times, how they would just give up pursuit, the lack of eye discipline with all the movements in Florida State's offensive backfield, baffling. Because you're just so accustomed to seeing those crimson helmets and crimson jerseys just absolutely manhandling people. And they look like. I mean, goodness gracious, they look like the Mike Shula teams. No, Alabama past. I mean, that's. That's exactly kind of what they look like to me whenever I watch them. And I don't know how. If that. If that's popping up week one, how do you fix that during the rest of the season? Because that's a culture thing, right? That's the team camaraderie thing. You don't just automatically overnight go, all right, everybody was loafing on, like, half our plays. Now, that's not going to happen. I've got big questions about that. And, oh, man, it's.

[Bobby Bones]

I.

[Brandon Marcelo]

They're very talented. They're. They're probably the most talented roster in America, to be quite honest. And. But for them to lay an egg like they did at Florida State, I mean, obviously it's an upset, but the way they lost is. Is if I was a Bama fan, I'd be. I'd be pissed off that that's not what Alabama football should be.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, his buyout, I think, is $70 million. We saw Texas A and M pay massive buyout. Any chance that that happened? Let's say they lose six games this year. Any chance he gets bought out? Oh, yeah.

[Brandon Marcelo]

Oh, yeah, he'll get bought out. That happens. Yeah. I mean, listen, as much as athletic directors complain about there not being any money anymore because of NIL and the revenue sharing stuff, they'll find the money. You know, college athletics for the last 30 to 40 years, they got Monopoly money, man. It ain't real. They just spend it man, they've got, they're maxing out those credit cards every day. They don't care. They just keep spending the money till the bank tells them no.

[Bobby Bones]

Let's play fan fiction. And this is total fiction. We don't know if any of this is going to happen. But who the heck would Alabama hire? Because I, I, if they were, and I don't know they're going to fire. I don't, I don't think they're going to. But is it Dabo? Dabo just lost again. They've been underperforming. Like, who the heck would Alabama want to hire Lane Kiffin?

[Brandon Marcelo]

I think the ships. Maybe there would be people there that want them. The Dabo Sweeney train is, is gone by the station. That was going to happen. It would have happened like two years ago. And that was nowhere near close to happening. It's a great question. Who would you hire? Would you, would you go get one of Nick Saban's proteges? And I think the top one out there, well, top two are Steve Sarkeesian at Texas and Lane Kiffin at Ole Miss. I think Lane Kiffin's name makes a lot of sense, though. I think if the Florida job were to come open at the same time as Bama, they maybe would end up fighting over him. But you also have to take into consideration, you know, every year we get like a hot coach that comes up out of nowhere based off of this, this season. So watch that. Hey, why not? I'll be quite honest with you. I think a great fit would be Kurt Signetti from Indiana. He coached with Nick Saban. He was on those first Nick Saban teams at Alabama back, way back when they lost the Louisiana Monroe and then they turned the thing around the very next year. And, and Bobby, I mean, if you ever listen to Kurt Signetti talk that guy, you know, he's a complete, like, hard ass.

[Bobby Bones]

He's a dick. I mean, he's, he's what it needs to be. You're right.

[Brandon Marcelo]

And he's entertaining. He gets it. And he gets this era of college football. I mean, Indiana's winning and is good and made the playoff last year because of the portal, because of Nil and because of Coach Signetti. I think he'd be a great fit at Alabama.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know how much you got to watch because you were actually at a game, but I don't know if he got home in time to watch the South Carolina Virginia Tech game. But I thought Lenore Sellers, he's a man. I mean, he's a man.

[Brandon Marcelo]

Yeah. You know, and Virginia Tech did a pretty good job slowing him down on the run for the most part. But then he took the top off there in the second half throwing that, throwing that one touchdown pass. He's big time. He's going to change games for them. But South Carolina, I think got a very good preview now that the book, the book, as they say, is out on Lenora Sellers, that they're going to do everything to sell out to stop him as a runner. Because I'm not sure South Carolina has the consistency and explosiveness at receiver to make people pay quarter to quarter to quarter. Because, you know, it only takes like one big pass or two to change a game. We saw that for South Carolina in the second half, but I was not very impressed with just how missing in action South Carolina's receivers were for most of the game.

[Bobby Bones]

I was rolling with you last night on Twitter as I was watching the Notre Dame Miami game and I think I thought Carson Beck looked good and I was surprised Notre Dame didn't pull it out. I, I guess I just expected that brand in the battle of the brands to win. Your thoughts on the game?

[Brandon Marcelo]

Notre Dame's gotta give the ball to running back Jeremiah Love more. I understand that he's never been a heavy workload running back, but I thought that hurt them in that game. If Jeremiah Love touches that ball five to 10 more times, they end up winning that game. Maybe at Miami. I did not say it's poetic justice. I don't know what you call it, but you know, Mario Crystal ball, he's always criticized for his late game clock management, you know, calling timeouts. We don't have any timeouts or running the ball when they should be kneeling it. And last night I thought it was going to pop up again because they were just outside the red zone, little under 2 minutes remaining, and they were just playing for a field goal like a long field goal. And they got the clock down to one minute, four seconds before kicking a 47 yard field goal. Like that's not the spot you want to be in to win a game. You give the other team another 64 seconds to try and win the game and you've got a 47 yard field goal kick, which is nowhere near a gimme, especially for a college kicker. But they converted and then Notre Dame got the ball back and they failed to spike the ball so they can get one more play on their last play and the clock ran out on them. So Mario crystal ball, I guess his bad clock management curse kind of Went over to the Marcus Freeman in that sideline. But Notre Dame is better than what they showed Sunday night. I think they're much better and I just think they've got a one yet a first time starting quarterback CJ Carr didn't quite know if he could be a good runner for them like Riley Leonard last year, so. But he proved it last night. He's able to run. But most of all, I just think you gotta give Jeremiah love the ball a little bit more. Let him run it. And the other thing is real quick is that Notre Dame's defensive line is not as good as it was last year. And that carried them a lot in some tight games last season. I'm interested to see if that unit can improve game to game.

[Bobby Bones]

Going from memory, I believe you said, if I ever am near the red zone and you put me in a wood chipper. It was something like that. You tweeted last night, like, and I don't go for it. Put me in a wood chipper.

[Brandon Marcelo]

Yeah, yeah. If, if, if we're in a two minute situation and I'm outside the red zone, but I just keep running the ball, put me in a wood chipper. You need to throw the ball a little bit, try to get closer. They know. I mean, I, I just didn't get that at all. I mean, you're trying to say, you're acting like you're at the 10 yard line saying, all right, let's just move the ball to the middle of the field. Let's run it. You got throw a few passes when you're 50 yards away from the field goal post. Man, I know you got confidence in your kicker, but don't, but don't put all that pressure on a college kicker. I mean, there's, that's a reason why hashtag college kickers trends every Saturday on Twitter because they're always messing up, even with even the best ones.

[Bobby Bones]

Something else that you mentioned was Caleb Love. They got him a lot more involved. They were putting him a wide receiver. They're moving around. He's got to stop jumping every time he gets the ball. How many times you gonna try to jump over? And it worked once, but eventually that's not going to work well. It's like every time he was trying.

[Brandon Marcelo]

To jump over people, that's his thing, man. He was doing the national championship game throughout the playoff and last year. You know, I hear people see that and they go, that dude's gonna get hurt. But he hasn't yet. You could fall awkwardly if you get clipped real low when you're doing that, but he's got the athleticism to do it. But also, I think that also leads into my previous point is that, like, he's never been a high workload running back, so he's probably more willing to do that to, to jump and try to, you know, outmaneuver guys. But they, I think they need to, again, I think they need to say, hey, we got to give this guy the ball 25, 30 times a game. Not just carrying it, but throwing it to him. I mean, I understand that college football is different these days. Running backs don't take that big of a workload, but Notre Dame is not as good as it was last year, and you've got to lean on your star players. And Jeremiah Love, to me is the best running back in the country. Use that. Don't use them sparingly. Use your best player.

[Bobby Bones]

I got two questions left. The Kansas State and North Dakota game was weird. And, you know, we had heard, and we just heard voices say, oh, you shouldn't go play overseas, because it's always weird when you come back. And we're like, who knows how true that. Holy crap. That might actually be a thing.

[Brandon Marcelo]

Yeah. But I will say Iowa State blew out their FCS team on the same day. I. Kansas State's got some issues. I do. I, I, I don't think their receivers were as good as I thought they were going to be coming in the transfer portal, guys, they added. And you know, listen, Kansas State needs to prepare itself in the Big 12 because there's gonna be a lot of games like that back and forth, tight down to the fourth quarter. But you don't need to be playing those type of games against an FCS opponent. You can't do that every week in addition to your conference games. Kansas State worries me now. In fact, I, in my top 25 is putting together. I dropped Kansas State out, obviously, but I also dropped Iowa State out because suddenly Iowa State's win doesn't look all that good. So I'm going to be more patient about Iowa State until they beat someone else on their schedule. I'm, I'm kind of disappointed in Kansas State at this point.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, final question. I watched Arkansas play Alabama A and M. I'm sure you have watched it back. They were much smaller than us. They were. Again, it was, it was in FCS school. It didn't really show us anything. We didn't cover. I don't know. We got, I was trying to explain to the guys here because we don't play Arkansas State. We're playing Arkansas State this next week. Why we're doing it. It's fun for the state, I guess, but we've, We've really. We really haven't done it. We're playing in a War Memorial. Do we have any shot to win six games this year?

[Brandon Marcelo]

Yeah. Yeah, I think so. I'm worried about the defense.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, they like, they look like. Like Swiss cheese against the bad Alabama and M team.

[Brandon Marcelo]

I'm very worried about that. I will say this, like the running back they got transferred in, Mike Washington, he's legit. You know, back in early August when camp was starting, I was talking to some of the coaches there and they told me this guy's like, got all SEC type ability. And I think he showed a little bit of that against Alabama A and M. But again, it's like one of those games. Like, you just can't read too much into it. But they're going to be very, very good offensively. But defensively, I've. I've got concerns. I got, I got a lot of faith in T will being able to kind of figure things out as they go along. But sometimes talent's talent, you know, there's only so much coaching you do and scheming you can do. But I, I'm not excited for the Arkansas State game, man. I, me, I, I don't.

[Bobby Bones]

I was telling them I'm kind of.

[Brandon Marcelo]

A. I'm kind of like Frank Broyles, like, we should never play him.

[Bobby Bones]

I know.

[Brandon Marcelo]

Don't open that door. Because what happens if. What if you lose to him? What if it's even just a close game and you win? You open the door. And in a state like Arkansas, only 2 million something people here, you don't need to be splitting up the fan base or starting up a new trend. Yeah, don't do it. Don't schedule those guys. I. I'm sure it's shocking to me that they agreed. Not only that, but they're playing a little rock like, no.

[Bobby Bones]

Like everything's off. Yes. Play. Play in the home where Arkansas feels like they're at home. They have the advantage. I agree. We don't have enough doors to open one. One of the doors for people to come in. I, I agree. I was just giving up. They all went to sleep and I was telling them the Frank Broyle story, like all this. But yeah, it's like, do it once and then never again.

[Brandon Marcelo]

Yeah. I will say this. Maybe it's a blessing in disguise that the SEC is going to move to nine games, so then they can just go. Yeah, see, Arkansas State is why we can't schedule any future games. We don't have enough. We don't have spots anymore for you.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, thank you for the time, as always. Brandon Marcelo. Follow him on Twitter at B. Marcelo, which I do. I was felt like I was sitting beside you watching the game last night, just taking it all in. Where are you going next week? You. You on the road again?

[Brandon Marcelo]

Yeah, Michigan, ou.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that's a good one.

[Brandon Marcelo]

Yeah, Michigan coach.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, Bryce Underwood looked good, though.

[Brandon Marcelo]

He's got a whip on him, doesn't he, man? I mean, his, the, the throwing motion is fantastic. He had a good game. And Sharon Moore, Michigan coach, man, coming back to his alma mater at OU where he played. That's no, you looks good. John Matiere, quarterback. The offense is rolling. He leads the FBS since last season in games of 350 plus yards, three touchdowns. It's game of the week. But that, that one could be like back and forth, like really, really good. When we see like two quarterbacks just throwing it out on the field, trying to get in the Heisman race, I.

[Bobby Bones]

Feel like Oklahoma every year has like a coach. It's Tennessee last year. It's showing more this year. Like Oklahoma's always got a coach coming back for vengeance. Every, every year, one big game. All right, Brandon, thank you for the time, buddy. We'll see you next week.

[Brandon Marcelo]

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly and now I'm seriously suspicious.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, wait a minute, Sam. Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot. He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her. Now he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone.

[Bobby Bones]

Now. Hold up. Isn't that against school policy? That sounds totally inappropriate.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor and they're the same age 10.

[Bobby Bones]

It's even more likely that they're cheating.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

He insists there's nothing between them.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, do you believe him?

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet.

[Bobby Bones]

So do we find out if this person's boyfriend really cheated with his professor or not?

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

To hear the explosive finale, listen to the OK Storytime podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, just so everybody knows, we recorded this before the episode we did today. I wanted to get Eddie's fresh reaction to Micah Parsons being traded. This was late Friday when we recorded this, when everybody didn't know and we were flying back from Savannah, Georgia yesterday, and somebody goes, oh, it's Brandon. Brandon goes, hey, Michael Parsons traded the Packers. And we were like, ha ha ha ha.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

It's that moment, Kevin, you know, where you finally get single. You're so close to the ground that you get signal on your phone.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

And it came through.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Start coming through.

[Bobby Bones]

So what are your thoughts? You've had a day. Yeah, go.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I'm shocked. You may have noticed I'm not wearing any Cowboys gear.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, we didn't notice.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Oh, man, it's.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

You know, I usually wear a Cowboys hat. Not wearing that today, but it's not because of this. Like, am I shocked by this? Absolutely. I thought 100% that they were going to figure out a deal we were going to get right to the start of the season, which we're right at that moment, and they're going to say, Mike is still a Cowboys. We're good. Right? Not a problem.

[Bobby Bones]

You see the Michael Irvin clip like one minute before, he's like, they're not trading him. I guarantee it. They're not trading him.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

That's how I felt.

[Bobby Bones]

One minute later, boom.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

But here's the thing. I'm not mad about it. I am now understanding that this year is down the toilet. Like, I was so excited for this year.

[Bobby Bones]

You thought Micah Parsons would have been the difference this year?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I think that we would have gotten. We had a chance. I mean, you got. You got a pretty good squad off in the offense. You've got Micah kind of round rounds out the defense. Yes. I thought that we had a pretty good shot this year. I went into the year thinking, yes, we could definitely be a contender this year. This tells me immediately we're trashing this year.

[Bobby Bones]

So you know what that tells me that you guys have a chance this year. If all the Cowboy fans are feeling like it's over I feel like you might have a shot. I mean, Kenny Clark's good. He's Pro Bowler. He's not Michael Parsons. Right. But I feel like the Cowboys, because they weren't going to pay Micah that money. I think it had been 47 million a year and I can play you some of these clips. They weren't going to pay him. That. That's what it was all about. It wasn't. They didn't want him. But they already paid Dak a ton. They already paid CD a ton.

[Responsible Gambling Announcer]

CD a ton.

[Bobby Bones]

So I feel like because the Cowboys, they didn't want to pay Michael Parsons. I'm not a Cowboys fan, so I can say this. I feel like they came out pretty good from this trade. They weren't going to win this year anyway. You were wrong about having a shot this year. Every year they got two first round picks. Next year's draft is so it.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Yeah. Oh, I know.

[Bobby Bones]

So I'm going to play some Jerry Jones clips here. Jerry Jones talks about the timeline of things. Hit that, please.

[Jerry Jones]

This trade was not just thought about today. This trade has been going on in our minds and our strategies and being talked about. It's been going on all spring. It culminated today and it came quick. But that's the way things go. It does happen fast when it happens.

[Bobby Bones]

I love it. That's the way things go.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

That's how things go.

[Bobby Bones]

That's just the way it goes.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Man of many words.

[Bobby Bones]

You know, there was some controversy and it did continue to bubble where Jerry was trying to negotiate with Micah without an agent. And even like the player association came out like, this is not cool. Like you're not supposed to do that.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

That's how you do it in old school Texas, though, man. Just, you know.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. That's how you do an oil deal in the 80s. Yes.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

When he bought the team.

[Bobby Bones]

Here's the second clip. Go ahead.

[Jerry Jones]

There's no question that I could have signed him in April. We all know that to have agreements, all parties have to agree. But this was by design. I did make Micah an offer. It wasn't acceptable and I honor the fact that it wasn't done in the way that he wanted to do it through an agent.

[Bobby Bones]

Here is him talking about the draft picks that they got for him.

[Jerry Jones]

He was an asset that we got four great years out of. But when you are talking about making a contract, the kind that he got and for the future, that's quite a commitment. And I'm just going to give you this. Not only do we immediately get a player, but Those draft picks could get us. I'm talking top Pro bowl type players.

[Bobby Bones]

Could.

[Jerry Jones]

Not necessarily. You're going to be quick to say you won't necessarily get those players. You got to draft them or acquire them.

[Bobby Bones]

And then finally, it does talk a bit about Kenny Clark here.

[Jerry Jones]

The facts are we need to stop the run. We haven't been able to stop the run at key times for several years. When you have the kind of extraordinary pass rush that Michael had, then the way to mitigate that pass rush is to run at you. If the pass rush doesn't get you ahead pretty big time and you're playing even or behind, then you've really got a problem in stopping the run.

[Bobby Bones]

Logical.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

What's he. What's he doing with the Michael thing? Like, he knows it's not his name, and he continues to do it over and over. His name's Micah and he continues to call him Michael.

[Bobby Bones]

Is this. He's 90, dude.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I know. I understand that. So that's my question for you. Is it an old man who just kind of forgets what he's saying, probably, or is this a thing where he's just like, all right, I'll disrespect him in a different way. I'll call him by the wrong name.

[Bobby Bones]

I think he's old, okay.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, I think so, too. He did call him Micah at one point.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, once.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

He goes back and forth.

[Bobby Bones]

I think he's old.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. And so. And also we know because we did a new episode today that's out today, but we did record this as it was still pretty fresh to Eddie because Eddie is a diehard Cowboys fan. Now, after you heard those clips, are you convinced that Jerry knows what he's doing?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I still, I've always believed that Jerry and his sons know what they're doing. I believe that Stephen Jones is a smart dude. Like, I think he has huge influence on his dad. He's the next guy in line. They know what they're doing. They are smart people. I understand that. And this is a thing that happens. And all the Cowboys, we're probably going to lose 30% of our fan base. Like, yes, that's the Cowboys, man. They're just going to be.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think you lose any real fans. You just. You just suck it up and go with it. It's our classic Cowboys.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

But you have young kids, like, you have like. Like, young kids that are starting to like the Cowboys. This stuff, like, this is going to be like, I'm out maybe.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think so.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

You guys don't like so that that'll get you out.

[Bobby Bones]

But with football like this happens 22 starters in football. Yeah. If it was a quarterback, I can see that. But if it was offense, I could see that. And not that defense doesn't matter. But it's an offensive league now in the NFL.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah. That's why they paid CD and paid Dak.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I love, I love the future. I love looking into the future. I mean, yes, this tells me that we're looking at a solid team in 2028. Possibly chance for the Super Bowl 2020.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Will Dak be there?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

No. And I think that's what this does. I also think quarterback.

[Bobby Bones]

Will Jerry be there and probably not so.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Oh, gosh, I didn't think about that.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think he sees the fruit of his labor here. But. But he's all.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

He's been very vocal about. It's not really much about him anymore. It's about the next generation.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. I think if he were doing this for now, for him to get a championship before he dies, he'd have kept Micah Parsons or Michael Parsons, either one. But I think he literally, regardless if you think he's doing a good job or bad job, I think he's doing job for the future of the team. I think this is. This was a. As far as Jerry Jones being a quote unquote selfish or non selfish owner, I think this is a non selfish move because he's probably not going to see this turn out the way he would like to see it turn out because he's not going to be alive.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Yeah, it's going to be a few years.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

So do you wish they would have done it back in April before the draft?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Yes.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I know it's hindsight is 20 20, but like that's a big thing. It's like the timing of it is just awful.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

It's the Cowboys though, right? Like, isn't that the Cowboys just a. Make things real dramatic and go all the way to the very end.

[Bobby Bones]

And then.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Bo.

[Bobby Bones]

Bo.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Then we got headlines for a whole week.

[Bobby Bones]

You usually make the signing though.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

After dragging it out and you just pay more money.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Man, the packers are going to be good.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

That's the thing the draft pick is. I mean, you got to figure it. What were the packers early 20s this year it's probably going to be mid to late 20s.

[Bobby Bones]

Could be.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

But you can trade up, right?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but not even that. I was saying that yesterday on the plane flying back. Yeah. The difference is in the NBA you got five starters. It's so much harder to get an impact player in the bottom half of the first round, especially the second round. In the NFL, you have 22 different positions. It first round, second round picks are extremely valuable. So I do think this is a bit different because, yeah, the packers are going to be good. It's going to be a second half of the first round. Sure. You could trade them both and they'll have their own pick, which is going to be bad. So it's going to be up. Yeah, I mean, they're not going to be that good.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Don't even know we have.

[Bobby Bones]

So they've also kind of cut their legs out in a positive way. Meaning they're not going to be as good this year, which is going to improve their draft stock the next year. Yeah, it'll be interesting. I don't hate it. I'm not a Cowboys fan. If I was a Cowboys fan, I think I would hate it. Because you've done so many stupid things that you're like, well, this is probably just another stupid thing. Yeah, it's how I feel about Arkansas sometimes.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

And you can look at it with a clear eye, too, I think.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't hate it. I really don't hate it. You got two first round picks, the next draft class, not only in quarterbacks, but even in like skilled defensive positions. Very tons of talent. One of the best in like 10 years. And if you don't think Michael Parsons is going to flip it and he's asking for that much money, 47 million a year and you already are paying CD and Dak. You have to make some hard decisions.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah. Somebody's got to go.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

And he's right. Stopping the run game has been difficult for the Cowboys last year.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm not going to stop anything now.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

No, no. And yeah, like I said, like, I'm. I'm not really looking forward to this year, but it's fine.

[Bobby Bones]

You will and you'll be back in. I got a. I got a feeling, too. You're going to be back. Believe it. Mike, you're also Cowboys fan. Your thoughts? I hated it at first because I feel like this is a bad way just to make the team feel like everybody comes to the very end. Nobody's going to want to play for us. Like, oh, you're going to go into this business where they just don't care about you. I think even the reason he calls them Michael is because he just sees these people as assets. But that's what you are in the NFL. You. But us as fans, we feel them as like, we're fans of them. We like these people. Can you imagine if fans made the decision on the team?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Oh, gosh.

[Bobby Bones]

And that's why. That's what the uproar is from Cowboys fans is like, we only see the turn. Yes. We don't see the road ahead.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I do love the fans. They're just like, just pay. I'm like, oh, that's easy for you to say. Like, it's not your money and it's.

[Bobby Bones]

Also not the cap you're trying to manage.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Right.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, they're not having to see how you're going to pay it this year, but two and three years down the road and how that's going to. So, yes, I. It's weird. He's awesome. But I understand he was asking. The deal was like 41 or 42 with the Cowboys. They offered him. They didn't think he was going to get that, but he ended up getting 47 with the Packers.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

He got more with the Packers.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

It's pretty awesome. Good for him.

[Bobby Bones]

Everybody wins. Except for Eddie.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I almost texted you and I was like, I just. I got it.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I appreciate.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I gotta see him in person.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I only got. My mom's in town, so she would have been the. The main texter. So she was. She, you know, didn't text. Obviously she's with me, but I'm just glad friends didn't text.

[Bobby Bones]

I was with you in person. We had a Packers fan with us, too.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

That's the worst.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Rod is a massive packers fan.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Next to me, dude. I'm just like, course the news would break with you next to me.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

That's awesome. I would have been all up in your face, dude.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

You would have.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Jerk.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, what's the deal? You guys want to be in or no. You thought about it?

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Oh, I've been thinking about it.

[Bobby Bones]

I know.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Same.

[Bobby Bones]

I've been thinking about it because it could be expensive.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I know.

[Bobby Bones]

That's.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

That's what worries me, like, a little bit.

[Bobby Bones]

We could. I would say. I hate to say most that we could lose in this, but. But give us a ballpark, just a.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Ballpark of the most you could lose. Like, and you could even be drastic about it. It can be a million dollars.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, no.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I know it's not a million, dude. We don't have that.

[Bobby Bones]

Let me see if Stell will answer the phone because he runs it.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Stell.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Stell's. He would run.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

He would run something.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, Matt. Still see if I'll answer.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

String.

[Commercial Announcer]

Your call has been forwarded.

[Bobby Bones]

Hidden answer. I would say worst. Like worst worst.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

It's like for, for one, like one per. We're going to split whatever.

[Bobby Bones]

You're going to say the whole team. I'm gonna say the whole team. Long. Yeah, yeah, but you're talking about worst. Worst is like six grand. Okay, but that's, that's absolute worst case scenario. So it could happen. And I've seen best case scenario win six, $7,000. I think I won four last year, but the two years before that I did not. I lost like 2,500 the first year. Didn't really know I was doing it all. Almost like 800 the second year. Here we go. Hey, you're on. So you're being recorded. Okay. All right. I'm talking with Eddie and kickoff Kevin about our draft of a team league and I'm asking them if they want to like come in as a partner with me because I've never had a partner before and I think it'd be fun to have them hop in. But that being said, they asked what's the most you can lose? Okay.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

The most that's been lost at Skins league that I've ever seen.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no, no. Do our league. Do our league. Don't do all time world records. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

On our league. What? Somebody probably lost like like a donor. What, like five, six thousand last year.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, that's what I told them. I said six was probably the most I've ever seen. And what about most one in our league, do you think?

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Actually the Chandlers had the greatest team in Skins League history last year and I think they won like, I think they won something like 11,000.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Oh my goodness.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

11, 12,000. Yeah, that's what you get when you have a former NFL Buffalo Bills tight end as one of the players owners against you.

[Bobby Bones]

So what would you say to them as they're considering hopping in here on the Bones team?

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I'd say, come on in, the water's fine.

[Bobby Bones]

All right, Absolutely. I just didn't, I couldn't give them even a semi educated guess on how much they could lose at the. The ceiling of loss and then the ceiling of victory. But I appreciate the help.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah. Or you can send them the spreadsheet, but yeah, I'm glad I could help.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. All right, thanks, man.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Thanks, Matt.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Degenerate.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Oh, yeah, yeah, he loves you. One of my favorite people in the world though.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Remember the cake eating? You try to turn a gambling into.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

That y dude went to casino with that guy and lost him for like two hours. Where did he go. We eventually found him at a tournament.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

And he's six' seven, by the way.

[Bobby Bones]

He's like Bruno Mars where Bruno Mars got into such debt, he had to play all those shows in Vegas. He had to do a residency. Matt still's doing I've been down to six miles Beach. You walk over, he's playing in a bar, just trying to get his money back.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

You want a decision now?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, we kind of need so this show, because we're recording this ahead, this show, and this is gonna be the end of the segment or the end of the show. But yeah, we draft tomorrow night, so. Which is Tuesday night.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Okay. And then as far as the draft goes, are we all going to be together drafting or what? Or do you just draft?

[Bobby Bones]

You can be on phone, on speaker. I'd like for you guys to be there. If I'm gonna ask for help, I'm probably gonna lean on Kevin a little more.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

We're a team, dude. What are you talking about? You wouldn't value my opinion when it comes to drafting. Yeah, you imagine. You imagine having an NFL team.

[Bobby Bones]

Like, I figured out how to do it pretty well, and then.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I know. I. I know. And then that. But I.

[Bobby Bones]

But then I might have just got lucky one year because again, I kind of cheated the system.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Well, I trust you mostly. Like, I would trust you 99%, but if I have this 1%, I'm like, dude, I have. We need to go this way.

[Bobby Bones]

That's why I would want you guys to be a part of it. You could come to the house. We do it at like seven. Or you just be on speaker. Yeah, Whatever the case is.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

But do you think you want to be in?

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, I'm leaning that way.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Me too.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, me too.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I'm leaning that way, so. Because I do. I love.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, here's what we can do. We can do 50, 25. 25. If you don't want to do 33. 33. 33.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

That's complicated.

[Bobby Bones]

No, it's not. It's complicated.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

What if the payout's going to be complicated?

[Bobby Bones]

Then you just divide it by four and that's the number you get. Yeah, all I'm trying to do is minimize your risk. You want to do 33? 33. 33. Great.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Don't listen, Eddie. I'm good with 50. 25, 25.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

You're not good with a three. The three way.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I mean, I can do that too, but I'm just saying, if Eddie's dying.

[Bobby Bones]

For a three way, dude, I've been dreaming of a three way with us.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Life down, boys. I could do it all. Yeah, I'm leaning towards either one.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, this is what I would suggest then. I would suggest, since it's your first year, do all. I'll take 50% of the load. You two together, we'll take the other 50% of the load. On your head.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Who's load?

[Bobby Bones]

Just.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

You're taking the load.

[Bobby Bones]

So both of you. So 50, and then you guys have the other 50 of the team, which equals that being 25. 25. So it's just if. If we lose a thousand bucks, I have to get 500. We give two and your collective unit has to give me 500. That's split in half.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

250.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm doing it for Eddie. Who's math.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

No. Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

Challenge.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I'm. I have discalculia.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you want to do that? 50? 25. 25.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

If you do. If you like that better, let's just do that. It's fine.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I'm in on that, Eddie.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Yeah, sure. I'm in.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

We win the big.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

You knew. You realize we win the big one, dude, we win a lot of money. It's going to be small, but it's.

[Bobby Bones]

Only 7% smaller still.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

You're going to miss that 7%.

[Bobby Bones]

You're going to miss it.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

It's like playing a slot machine do when you're just like, I'm just going to put a quarter instead of a whole dollar.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I know.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but you lose that dollar, you end up losing a lot more.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Well, trying to convince him. Dude, get more load.

[Bobby Bones]

You want more load? Is that what you want?

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I want all the load, guys.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

No, I'm in if you want to do 33. Like, I'm also okay with that.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm gonna feel guilty if we start losing a bunch.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I know, I know, I know.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

And then Eddie's gonna be like, told you.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So. Okay. I don't want to press you anymore. You guys make your decision. None. You're the other 50, which means you're 25. 25. Or we're all equal.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

I'm. It's fine, Kevin. We can go 50. I'm cool with that.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

And you'll never hear me complain about it again.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I don't believe that's a lie. That's for sure a lie.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, so 50. 25. 25. Perfect.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Let's do it.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, the draft is like Tuesday night at 7. 50. 50.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Sounds better that way.

[Bobby Bones]

50 and then that's a big circle. I gotta do for that year. Okay.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly and now I'm seriously suspicious.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, wait a minute, Sam. Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot. He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her. Now he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone.

[Bobby Bones]

Now hold up. Isn't that against school policy? That sounds totally inappropriate.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor and they're the same age.

[Bobby Bones]

Then it's even more likely that they're cheating.

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

He insists there's nothing between them.

[Bobby Bones]

I mean, do you believe him?

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet.

[Bobby Bones]

So do we find out if this person's boyfriend really cheated with his professor or not?

[Dakota (OK Storytime Podcast Host)]

To hear the explosive finale, listen to the okay Storytime podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

[Bobby Bones]

Why is there a Titan's helmet here? So I literally looked back and just saw this helmet.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Yeah, I put. I put it there. I. I almost forgot about it too, but it's because, you know how the Titans came to do some, like, behind the scenes documentary stuff with you and Castle for the NFL podcast that you do. Lots to say. So then the next day, the guy hit me up, one of the guys that was there to film, and he's like, hey, I have get this. A game worn helmet.

[Bobby Bones]

What the.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

That I would love to give to Bobby and the guys for the podcast or to put wherever. That's what I asked. I was like, dude, who wore it? He's like, I don't know exactly, but it's somebody that was number 70 in the last five to 10 years, whatever that means.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

It's pretty clean, though.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

I know, but there are some marks on it you can see up close.

[Bobby Bones]

Awesome.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

It's game worn.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I will. We'll take this to the studio. That's cool. We're gonna have a whole new studio in the next six months anyway, so.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Perfect.

[Bobby Bones]

We'll put it in there. Okay. And then I have this from Coach Stoops in Kentucky, which I haven't opened yet. Came quick.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Wow.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Just in time, though.

[Bobby Bones]

I have a Kentucky helmet and it's very nice for him to send this. I don't know what color it is. It's blue. If it's white, it's like a gender reveal here. We're gonna do it pink. Yeah.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

Feel like we're breaking a helmet.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. It's been a while. Okay.

[Eddie (Co-host)]

You need a knife or something? I have a switchblade.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you have one? No, I think I have it. Okay, here we go. Oh, there's hat. Oh, cool. There's some. There's some stuff in here too.

[Kevin (Kickoff Kevin)]

Okay.

Oh, that's a pretty helmet.

[Bobby Bones]

Pretty helmet.
