KK Finally Picks a College Team — The Bachelor: College Football Edition

SPEAKER_07 0:06

The home for all things NFL in college football.

SPEAKER_05 0:17

Oh boy. How are we feeling? How's it going?

SPEAKER_07 0:23

I don't know. This could be uh this could be a great time.

SPEAKER_05 0:26

This could be a great time.

SPEAKER_07 0:28

It could end up with me losing my shit and just walking out that door again. Dude, you fucking knew that man. No fucking thing. I'm afraid of you picked up. I'm afraid of you pick up and bring them back. We might not make it to the fucking drop on the same flood.

SPEAKER_05 0:42

I need to give some people some context. You gotta just start screaming at them. I don't know what you're screaming about.

SPEAKER_07 0:48

That's what happens when you bring up Oklahoma. What do you think?

SPEAKER_05 0:50

That is true. That is true. That is true. The van's fuck Oklahoma's already popping.

SPEAKER_07 0:54

It's already popping. The van's ready to go. My fist is ready to go.

SPEAKER_06 1:04

We got the jug and you fucking four before the bad shit before I even came here.

SPEAKER_05 1:09

Yeah, it's it's it's that's why we start drinking the beer to start balancing it out. Yep, it's one of those episodes, ladies and gentlemen. If you have not listened to the episode with Joel Norris that we recently did, titled What College Team Should I Pick? Uh something along those lines. Go back and listen to that because that will be the precursor for everything that we're gonna talk about today. Yeah, KK's picking his college football team today on the episode. It's gonna be a grand, a grand old time. We've dedicated a whole episode in the middle of draft season.

SPEAKER_03 1:37

Today I thought it was just like a bracket and you'd eliminate one every time.

SPEAKER_05 1:41

No, it's it's coming today. You're you're gonna be making your decision. We made a whole episode. Wait, what'd you think? We just started recording so you could just eliminate one and then we'd stop.

SPEAKER_02 1:49

I thought that's what you do, like bracket.

SPEAKER_05 1:51

No, no, no. You're gonna bracket it live here.

SPEAKER_02 1:53

You're gonna bracket a lot.

SPEAKER_05 1:55

This is gonna be a breakdown of every school that you've given me. So KK has given me a list of schools. And uh he has given me 10. That's cool. He gave me 12. He gave me 12. I got we had to have in Hawaii in there, so we added in 12. It's a spoiler alert. And how I've done it is I've done it from you know, I've given a breakdown on each school. I'm gonna walk through them all, I've regionalized them all into little groups, um, and we're gonna make our decisions from there. KK will pick um, I think I guess we can say two schools from each um well, he'll start by eliminating one school. So there's three schools in each bracket, and he'll start by eliminating one, and then we'll be two schools left in each bracket. Um now what I've started with is a when do you watch guide? And I think I'll go to all of you guys. Now, where we live, we live on the West Coast, Pacific Standard Time. So, right now, games SEC, ACC, most of them are probably noon Eastern.

SPEAKER_07 2:57

So early 9 a.m., baby.

SPEAKER_05 2:59

Early, but doable morning college football on Saturdays. That is acceptable. And you've got the big noon, you know, that's going around 12:30. That's perfect for lunch football. Then you've got peak football on Saturday afternoon, the games that start at one o'clock, that works too. 4:30, the dinner time game, ABC Primetime. That always, you know, that's that works for us on the Pacific. And the Saturday evening, ESPN night game, five o'clock. Just beautiful time. The coup de gras. Uh, you also then get the the nice little late night game, 7:30, you know, 7:30, the pack game, as they used to call it. Um, that is late but worth it. And then finally, you get the you get the nice evening game between Hawaii at random times where you can just degenerately just watch the game and fucking DJ In Central.

SPEAKER_07 3:48

You're already fucking and drinking, you're already at the bar, you've been watching football all day, and on comes Hawaii late at night. Fuck yes. It will be the nightcap.

SPEAKER_05 3:57

It's a great old time. It's a great old time. Now, I know I talked about it. We've got KK's bracket of love for variety of teams. So I've got uh I've got three three little segments here. The first one is glamour. So you've got USC, Miami, and Notre Dame. Oh, wow, wow, those are and then you've got the West Coast Kings. So you've got um Oregon, Washington, and recently Hawaii. We've added them in. Then you have the Southern tradition, you've got Alabama, Auburn, and Georgia. And then you have the rising powers, you have Clemson and Texas and TCU. So each school, people are gonna go through them, they're gonna get their breakdown. KK must eliminate one school per region in the first round. That leaves us with eight schools. Then two more rounds until one school earns the final rows from KK.

SPEAKER_00 5:12

Walk in the spot, everybody got plan. Ladies want to know if he single wants to play. But he just left it off like girl, that's KK, love machine.

SPEAKER_05 5:21

You guys ready to meet the contestants? You guys ready? Okay, here we go. So the glamour schools. These three programs are the Hollywood, the prestige, the cultural cash, you can say, of college football. They win off the field even when they lose on it. The question for KK is gonna be after this exercise when we go through these schools, is does he want to root for a brand or does he want to root for a football program? Now we'll start off with the USC Trojans, named as after the Trojans, uh very famous condom brand, protected sex in uh Southern California. That's not even their logo. I know. Uh they play in the Memorial Coliseum, capacity 93,067 in the Big Ten Conference. I've been there. LA baby. There you go. Now watch LA calls. Now I'm gonna break this down from a variety of aspects. All right, we're gonna go watchability. So, how easy is it to watch where we are? Travelability, how easy is it to get there from where we are? And apparel merch is always important. Like what kind of merch options do we have? What's kind of the apparel situation? And finally, identity and vibe. So those are gonna be the categories. We're gonna walk through them. First one, fellas USC, Big Ten now. Their games are on Fox, CBS, NBC, ESPN, prime exposure. Games tick typically kick off between 12:30 our time, Pacific time, and five o'clock. You will always find USC on television. The LA market is the second biggest in the US. Every night, every network fights for those USC broadcast rights. Travel, two and a half hour direct flight from where we're from. Multiple daily flights that go, you know. Coliseum is accessible. You said you've been there, it's accessible from the airport. Uh 30 to 45 minutes. Not too bad. Not too bad. Now their gear, so their cardinal and gold gear is globally recognized. Got that Nike deal, swoosh branding. SC logo is clean, iconic, available at almost all major Canadian sporting goods stores as well. A lot of a lot of ways you can buy the gear that you don't have to have it shipped over from the US. Streetwear culture means USC merch crosses into a little fashion terrible, some clean collabs uh between some fashion influencers and USC in the past. So you're gonna wear it beyond just game day and football season. Um now the identity is is questionable, I think, in recent memory. So like USC is the team I think you pick when you want to root for a program that's bigger than just football. So the Coliseum, the fight song, the Hollywood legacy, the celebrities, the celebrities that go there. They lose, they lose, and it still feels glamorous at the end of the day. You still feel like you know you've done something, but when they win, it feels like you're a part of something, something great. Like it's you know something magical. Um now questions for all of you, but mainly KK. Actually, sorry, I should I should go get I should do some pro pros for KK, cons for KK. Pros, Hollywood glamour, right? KK loves the flashing lights. Big Ten now, they play Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State regularly. What's it mean to be the Big Ten, Brand, versus where they were before? Given give people that probably don't know maybe what what the new world looks like for them.

SPEAKER_07 8:54

Well, it's a big ten. I mean, it's you're up up against Ohio State, you get a little bit more exposure, but you know, they used to play in the Pac-12, and I just never I never really got into them when they're in the Pac 12. Like I just I just never fucking cared about them. Yep. There you go. So we I feel like they were a bigger staple. They were big, but I just never then again I never I've said it before, even growing up, I never really got into any of the teams in the pack when they were in the pac 12. Like I didn't know.

SPEAKER_05 9:18

I think the Pac-12 did a horrible job marketing itself as a conference. They were a giant amongst little schools, but they were not like anything relevant.

SPEAKER_07 9:25

And they're they're their color scheme's too close to the Redskins, so that I think that that had a little bit of bias, too. Yep. I mean, they're a part of the the greatest college game ever played. They were on the loot, they're on the losing, they're on the losing end of it. But long they were a part of that game. Um, so they do hold a little bit of a place in my heart. A little bit.

SPEAKER_05 9:44

There you go. There you go. Uh, we're gonna go through the keep going through the pros. Obviously, Nike Gear, uh Elite. LA, underrated city, like when it comes to like the stuff you can do in LA, the different stuff. You know, going there for a USC game, USC game means you can go and do a whole bunch of stuff in that city. It's bumping. West Coast kickoffs, perfect. Now, the cons. The alumni fan base is a little fair weather. Coliseum is notoriously half full uh most weeks. Uh Big Tense travel schedule is brutal. They're the team flying the most miles. Um, people will assume you pick them for the brand. That will be a thing.

SPEAKER_03 10:16

Now Love Machine and Trojan? Is that what you're getting at? Now there's a crossover. There's a crossover.

SPEAKER_07 10:23

Is that where you're getting? There's a crossover common.

SPEAKER_05 10:26

Now the rivalry is a little bit more internal, it's not as nationally charged up. They have rivals in UCLA. It's it's very local to the California scene, it's not as big as some of the SEC rivalries. Um, they're in a rebuilding mode. Now, question time. USC is in Los Angeles, you're in where you are. Uh, direct flight two and a half hours. How often realistically would you be going to games? And does proximity matter when picking a college team, or is it about the TV schedule?

SPEAKER_03 10:59

It's about probably more about TV schedule.

SPEAKER_05 11:02

Okay, so it's not as much of like how close they are to where you are.

SPEAKER_03 11:07

Well, I mean, you can go when you can.

SPEAKER_05 11:08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 11:10

I mean, it's a nice great vacation spot. There you go.

SPEAKER_05 11:12

That's love machine. Love machine loves love spreading. There you go. Uh, now the fan base is infamous for fair weather trojan nation. Uh, empty seats at the Coliseum, even in Goodyears. Does a half full stadium uh I'll pose this to everybody. Does a half full stadium culture bother you as a new fan? Or you're like, hey, I'm gonna watch it on TV anyways, it doesn't matter to me.

SPEAKER_06 11:34

It bothers me if it's college football. Yeah, it barely bothers me if it's college football. Yeah, I know because you see the maniacs of college football fandom.

SPEAKER_05 11:42

Yeah, if if you've been you go to Virginia and people are losing their minds, and then you're like, you can't even fill up fucking USC stadiums.

SPEAKER_03 11:49

That's part of why you want to go to the game, right?

SPEAKER_06 11:51

You know what? Atmosphere. I felt with USC, especially in like the early 2000s when they had to run, like uh with the Pete Carroll days, but if they didn't they didn't have the Rams or the Chargers in LA, so they were the only football team in LA you can really watch is so a lot of people were watching them and like okay, well, there's nobody else to watch now. You can, so that's why I think their fandom's gone down.

SPEAKER_05 12:12

Yeah, and then you got Lincoln Riley who left uh Oklahoma to come to USC. Things have been rebuilding. Uh, they haven't won a national title since 2004. Are you comfortable picking a program that's mid-rebuild, or do you need to see a sustained winning window before you commit?

SPEAKER_03 12:30

I don't mind uh a bit of a rebuild. Sometimes you gotta go with the underdog. All teams are gonna rebuild at one point.

SPEAKER_05 12:36

Love it, love it. And before I move on to the next um to the next school, KK, I want you to close your eyes. Actually, I want all of you guys to close your eyes. Just close your eyes. I promise it's not gonna be weird. If you're listening to this and not driving, please close your eyes as well. Now, KK, I want you to picture this. You're flying into LAX on a Friday night, you take the metro to downtown LA, you walk through the historic gates of the LA Memorial Coliseum. 93,000 people somehow they've managed to gather today. They normally don't do that. 93,000 people in carnal and gold, the sun setting over California, Tommy Trojan sword in the air, the fight start the fight song starts. That's USC. That's what you get. You can open your eyes. I'm gonna be setting the scene for each program. I really want you to feel like you're there, you know. We really want you to feel at home here so that when you make your decision, it's we really exhausted all options. Now moving on to you know, this this team recently you talk about national championship losses. Miami. Oh, Miami with the iconic gear and the iconic uh the iconic players that have come through that program. Now, Miami plays in the ACC. Games are on ESPN, ABC, and uh formerly the C uh the CW. Apparently that was a that was a network. Uh now it's the ACC network deals um that have gone. So it's a little bit tougher to find some of those games that may not be as marquee, usually kicking off noon Eastern, uh 9 a.m. Pacific or 3 30 Eastern. Uh Miami does get primetime slots when they're ranked. The it factor means whenever the U show up nationally, it's a must-watch. However, they're not on TV every week, like an SEC school. How to get there. So it's about six and seven six to seven hours of a flight, uh, typically one stop, uh, either in Chicago, Dallas, or Toronto. There's no direct flights. That might be a little unfortunate. Uh, not ideal for a spontaneous game trip, but hey, very doable if you're doing a planned vacation, if you're trying to build something around it. South Beach plus college football plus love machine. It could get it could get wild. Uh, apparel of merch, Miami's orange, green, and white is one of the most recognizable looks in all of sports. The classic U logo is a tattoo level icon. People have it tattooed all the time. Nike Gear, Streetwear Culture embraces the U. Drake wears it, Kanye referenced it. It's a culture brand, not just a football brand. I think so far it beats out the fucking USC merch. Tons. Like fucking no tomorrow. Um, identity and vibe. So, Miami obviously is a vibe before a college football program. They don't just play football, they perform it. They invented swag, they have a turnover chain, their entire entrance music is slapping at high levels. Listen, when they're great, there's nothing like it. There it is, fucking bumping. When they're not, I guess you still look good in the gear. So there's that. Uh, the pros for you, KK. Best culture brand, arguably, South Beach Lifestyle, orange and green. Uh, when Miami's good, there it's electric. Uh, the swagger factor. Um historically iconic, five national titles, NFL factory, legendary alumni. The turn um so the cons, I guess, is the turnover chain can get real old when they're not consistently winning. Um, Hard Rock Stadium is technically in Miami Gardens, not the city, so that may be a little bit of a commute outside of the city, you know, getting back and forth. Uh, ACC gets national, less national TV coverage than the SEC or Big Ten. Uh harder to watch on television. Uh, and traveling from where we are is is a little bit expensive and requires a stopover. Now, Miami made the 2025 national championship game. They have all the culture and swagger, but their home attendance is notoriously bad. The stadium isn't even in Miami. This we talked about this before. What's the case for picking Miami if their own fans right now aren't even showing up? Like, how like why are why what's going on in Miami that people are like, nah, I rather.

SPEAKER_03 16:50

Too many things to do in Miami. Oh. Right?

SPEAKER_05 16:53

Oh. Oh, like what? Tell me. Say hookers and blow. Say it. Michael Irvin, man.

SPEAKER_07 17:02

Michael Irvin, you know what he's into.

SPEAKER_03 17:04

We know what he's into. We know what he's into. That's where the love machine should choose, but.

SPEAKER_05 17:10

Oh, STD Central. Kick it. First the condom brand. Now hookers and blow. I'm telling you.

SPEAKER_06 17:18

What was the category you called this?

SPEAKER_05 17:19

I call this the glamour.

SPEAKER_06 17:22

I don't know if glamour is there, right? Could have called it just sex. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 17:25

Yeah. Sorry to Joel Norris, who's listening in on this episode.

SPEAKER_06 17:29

The next school is really not. Oh, yeah, that is true.

SPEAKER_05 17:32

That is true.

SPEAKER_06 17:33

Catholic school.

SPEAKER_05 17:34

So hey, yeah, that's what we're all gonna bring it all together in the right category. That's why we couldn't call the category sex. That's right. That's right. Uh you're Canadian.

SPEAKER_03 17:42

Because it's the complete opposite of the next team, right? Yeah. But it makes perfect sense. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 17:46

Catholics versus Congress. Exactly. Now this might hurt some feelings. You're Canadian, Drake's Canadian. Drake always reps the you. Uh is the Drake connection meaningful to you at all? Drake connection? No. Oh, it doesn't care. Casey God give a fuck about no Drake. Drake. Uh Miami hasn't won a national title since 2001, but they've consistently been one of the NFL's biggest feeders and maintain elite recruiting. Is historical prestige plus cultural relevance enough, or do you need a root for a program that is winning championships now? I think I can open that up to everybody. Like, is it matter to you guys? Like, do you guys get happy when you see like a, for example, like a longhorn make the NFL? Of course. Like, I feel like it is. I feel like I've I've noticed more now than ever how many longhorns are out there, like where this guy went to college. And there's like you look at Ohio State.

SPEAKER_07 18:35

Wide receiver you. This year in the draft. I don't know about that.

SPEAKER_05 18:39

Yeah, LSU, like all that talent that came out of LSU through that feeder program. Does that matter to you? Like, do you want to see representation like in the NFL versus like just like okay, they win national championships, they're great in college, but then they're players like Indiana, for example. They won a national championship. There's not a lot of Indiana cats that are gonna be going high. Like I know Mendoza and Cooper, but like that's that's about it when it comes to Straight Stratt'll go higher.

SPEAKER_07 19:03

Yeah. Well, not hot, not first round, but he'll he'll be up there.

SPEAKER_05 19:05

He'll be up there. But when you look at like other programs and you see how much representation there truly is, does that matter? No. Oh, yeah. Oh, okay. Okay, sweet, sweet. No, that's good.

SPEAKER_03 19:15

You want to see the guys you cheer for making to the big leagues, right? That's true.

SPEAKER_05 19:18

Okay, now here we go.

SPEAKER_03 19:20

Um unless you're all about like condoms and hookers and blow, then in different stories. Oh, wow, okay.

SPEAKER_05 19:26

KK is getting into it. KK's getting into the the the condoms, hookers, and blow segment of this show. Um eyes closed in time, fellas. Let me paint the picture for you. It's gonna be beautiful. Brandon take it, take take, grab your beverage. Grab your beverage. KK, close your eyes. Let me take you on a trip to Miami. Imagine telling someone you're a Miami fan. They immediately picture the you entering the field, the turnover chain swinging, little Wayne standing out there in the stands, South Beach parties, NFL players in the crowd. No other college program has that image. You don't just pick Miami, KK. Miami picks you. KK is in the tranquil state right now. He's ready to go. Now we're gonna move on to the Notre King.

SPEAKER_06 20:12

I know why KK's laughing, because this is the reason I'm laughing. All I could picture when you were like walk into the Miami stadium. I just pictured the first thing I see is Michael Irvin with a belt and fucking. That's what I'm gonna do. Michael Irvin belt the hat. Just slapping the ground with his belt.

SPEAKER_02 20:30

I don't I'm waiting for that. I was gonna be thinking about like I'm already visualizing waiting for him to fucking say that. When you get up to play and would you even make it to the stadium? I was gonna be at the airport.

SPEAKER_05 20:42

I was initially, initially, I was going to initially I was going to I was gonna say that. Initially I was gonna say more. Well you fucking should have. No, but the thing is, is like no, but the thing is, is like I think I personally really enjoy that being a Cowboys fan. But I think if I was in person and I walked in and it's just like I'm taking in the abyss, I turn my head to the right, and there's just a disgruntled black man beating a jersey over a trash can, I would have some questions. Welcome to college football.

SPEAKER_06 21:14

One of the old alma moderns like Michael really whips that thing real good.

SPEAKER_05 21:22

I really love that shit. Also, I forgot to mention one of the greatest head coaches of all time, Jimmy Johnson. Also, Miami Hurricane. Just gonna put that out there. But yes, Michael Irvin beating the living crap out of some fucking rivals jersey on a trash can and then going, look at it, you're looking and just breathing over it and just thinking it's that fucking Dallas judge that almost sent him to jail. Just good times out in Miami. Uh, Notre Dame, I mean, it's the most nationally broadcasted college football program in history. Uh my ex uh NBC has broadcast Notre Dame games exclusively for over 30 years. Uh, you know, there's multiple games that air on network television with no subscription required. Um, they're almost always on major networks. The how to get there is interesting. So it's like eight or nine hours. You gotta go to Chicago, then it's a 90-minute drive. It's not really a casual trip. Um, however, Chicago, World Cast City, you know, you go there, you you have a great time in Chicago, then you drive two hours to Notre Dame, watch the game. It's a great time. Uh, Notre Dame gear, globally recognized. I available everywhere. I fucking see that shit like in stores all over the place. So it's there's no issue getting the gear. It is iconic. They're no, they've got a partnership with Under Ar Under Armour, it's very nice, you know, very high quality stuff. Um I listen, Notre Dame, most American college football institution that exists, built on Catholic tradition, golden helmets, television deals, occasional national championship, culture touchstone. Now, they play on NBC, free TV, no subscription. It's actually for Canadian fans, you can actually log into like Notre Dame, I think it's called Notre Dame International, and you can actually watch it without anything required because like even if they're not on NBC, they make it accessible. How important is that? And should more schools be doing that?

SPEAKER_07 23:13

NFL, take notes.

SPEAKER_05 23:15

Yeah, I kind of like that. Like, even if they're just easy access, it's very easy to watch the games. Like, I will you want to watch your team, right? Like, you can like you don't have like you can go in, you can watch past games on their on their website. Like, you it's very easy. Like, I think more teams should be looking into doing that. I think the more people that can watch the sport, the more it grows, kind of thing.

SPEAKER_07 23:35

It's a lot easier though when you're an independent. Yeah, I was yep. I agree.

SPEAKER_05 23:40

Um, they're also uh fans of Notre Dame are also known as subway alumni. So people who root for them with no connection to the school, KK would possibly be the ultimate you might be driving that subway train. Um, is it embarrassing, or is that actually the point?

SPEAKER_06 23:57

Uh like do you think I think for an independent school? Wow.

SPEAKER_05 24:00

Well, I think more so it's like, should there be so many fans for people like of people of a school that never went there? Or do you think that that's the whole point of like it's like that's the point? Notre Dame is a team for people who just love college football.

SPEAKER_03 24:14

That's a hard school to get into, right?

SPEAKER_05 24:17

It's like, hey, you can't blame them if they're stupid.

SPEAKER_03 24:19

We all watch Trudy, right?

SPEAKER_05 24:21

It's like you can't blame them if they're stupid. If they have hot they have higher standards than somebody in there. What are you trying to say about uh what are you trying to say about Miami right now? Saying there's not higher standards to get there academically?

SPEAKER_07 24:32

Actually, what is there's a reason why it's Catholics versus convicts, man? Some can get into one school to get into the other school.

SPEAKER_05 24:41

Exactly. Exactly. Uh Notre Dame just went to the national championship in 2025. Uh they are the number one team ranked by Joel Norris.

SPEAKER_07 24:50

I feel with how big of a Jeremiah Love fan is. Yeah. If we did this a year ago, this would be like we'd we'd be done right now. I'm an Notre Dame fan. Jeremiah Love.

SPEAKER_05 25:01

Yeah, yeah, yeah. But now Jeremiah Love is gone. He's gone. That's the beauty about college football. He got you gotta fall in love with the program. Because if you start falling in love with the players, they leave. That's a problem, yeah. Yeah, like they're gone, they're out of there. And then you're sitting there like, what? Okay. Um, all right. Bachelor moment time, KK. Here we go. Here we go. I'm gonna paint the picture. Close your eyes. Nice, nice, nice little entry south bend. Every week, Notre Dame runs out of the tunnel to the Notre Dame Victory March, one of the most recognized songs in the world. The golden helmets catch the sun. 80,000 people in navy and gold. NBC goes to commercial with a golden dome in the background. That's not just a football game, KK. That's an institution. That's an institution that you'd have to choose if you wanted to cheer for the fighting Irish. Alright, KK. It's elimination time. It's time to cut one of these three glamour schools. Um, right now, you guys always have no dog of the fight. Who would you guys cut and why?

SPEAKER_07 26:06

USC.

SPEAKER_05 26:07

I agree. I think I would cut USC too.

SPEAKER_07 26:10

They're well, like I said, the Washington com Redskin colors.

SPEAKER_05 26:13

Okay, now I can't unsee it. Yeah, that's what I mean. That's what I mean. Washington Redskins fucking colors.

SPEAKER_07 26:19

Well, I mean, that the shade of yellow is a little bit different, but that that fucking red is no. No, I don't know. I cannot I cannot unsee it. It is really. And it's Lincoln Riley. He came from Oklahoma, so fuck him too.

SPEAKER_06 26:30

Yeah, but he's gonna be if he leaves. You know how much money they fucking gave him, they can't fucking buy him out. That's true. Yeah, but it's just the bad, man.

SPEAKER_07 26:38

They don't have the passport, they ain't getting the money. They need a fucking mega booster. Like, what's their fucking fired paid? Why am I drawing a blank right now? No, they it wasn't Brian Kelly, or was it Brian Kelly? Brian Kiffin. No, you're talking about they fired someone they it was the guy, was it was it Brian Kelly?

SPEAKER_05 26:58

Wasn't uh Brian Kelly like at LSU, and then like the guy was like, All right, let's get this fucking done, and like yeah, it was it was Brian Kelly.

SPEAKER_07 27:06

I thought it was someone else for a second.

SPEAKER_05 27:07

Yeah, I'm gonna have to say I'm gonna have to go in that camp there. I know Matthew's probably gonna eliminate the fucking Catholics here, or actually, no, he might keep the Catholics.

SPEAKER_06 27:15

I actually had to eliminate the Catholics. I think so. I think I don't like how they're independent. I don't like how they're not in a big conference. I mean, they're they're Texas gonna hurt a lot of people. That's a yeah, that's a big he's a big Steelers fan, like me. Oh, it's gonna hurt him.

SPEAKER_05 27:32

KK, it's time.

SPEAKER_03 27:34

So I gotta I gotta eliminate one, right? You got to eliminate one, yes. Let's eliminate USC. They're out, they're out.

SPEAKER_05 27:40

I kind of thought so. They're gone. Get him out of here.

SPEAKER_07 27:44

So we definitely so we do have the convicts versus Catholics matchup. We do, we do. There we go.

SPEAKER_05 27:50

Um, okay, region two. This one, you know what? It's called the West Coast Kings. Um, Matthew is leaving us momentarily. I think we have to take a break here. Hold on. Let us let us take a little break here. We'll be back after this. Um, a short little message. West Coast time. All right, guys. We all live on the West Coast. These schools are all gonna be much closer to us. Except for one. One is butt fuck nowhere. It's very hard to get there. But let's start with the first one, which is Oregon. Um Oregon, Big Ten, games on Fox, CBS, all the networks you can think of. Huge, huge school when it comes to their presence on television. Travelability. Uh, it's a two and a half hour drive uh through the border down the I-5 almost, but that's what they've rated it. It's just slightly before Portland, I think. I if I asked. Eugene. It's Eugene, yeah. It's after Portland. Um, it's after Portland, sorry. So it's a little bit longer, it's like four hours. My bad. Um, you could legitimately drive to a ducks game on a Saturday. Uh, Eugene's a small town, quirky, outdoorsy, very Pacific Northwest. Uh, their stadium has one of the best atmospheres in college football. Now, I think what sets them apart out of every single school is their Nike deal. So Phil Knight went to Oregon, means that they get unlimited new uniform combinations every season. Uh, they've had hundreds of unique uniform looks. The gear is always fresh. Green and yellow is distinctive. It's available at like major Canadian retailers, also available, like when you cross the border in all those sporting stores, tons of tons of Oregon gear. Um, Oregon really is the program that made university uh uniforms a conversation. I mean, Phil Knight's Money, Nike's Design Lab, a culture that embraces the new, they're not traditional. Uh, they got a coach that's an absolute fucking crazy person when it comes to those pre-game speeches and recruits like a madman. Um, the pros for you, KK. I think we talked about it. Closest program to Vancouver, uh, outside of closest major program. Sorry, Washington. Uh, Vancouver. Uh, Nike's headquarters is in Oregon, best uniforms. Um, their stadium atmosphere is world class. Um, it is a small college town, limits beyond the game itself. So you're not gonna be able to do much outside of go to go down and watch the game. Uh, the uniform changes can be confusing. Um, but uh, you know what? You never know what they're gonna look like. Uh, Phil Knight's money has created some resentment among rival fan bases. Uh some people think you know it's too they worry too much about their uniforms and not enough about their actual performance on the field. That is also a thing that they get blamed on. Um, Oregon is drivable from from us. Uh, if you pick Oregon, are you actually gonna be going down to a game?

SPEAKER_03 32:53

Yes, I would be.

SPEAKER_05 32:54

Oh, we do a few games. Oh, oh wow, okay. Now, Oregon has hundreds of different uniform combinations. As someone with no existing loyalty, is the always fresh gear actually appeal, or is it a program without a real identity? Because you look at Notre Dame, Notre Dame has the same thing, yeah, consistently, and like you look at Oregon, it's the complete polar opposite.

SPEAKER_07 33:20

Well, I mean, you've always got the green, except for like those blocked out unions are sick. Yeah, like those their blocked out unions are fucking sick.

SPEAKER_05 33:28

Yeah, they they're like their store, like their team store, is massive, and the combinations that like you can go through and get, it's like as someone who did their college football bracket, and I had Oregon go into the finals, the gear was the biggest thing. Like, there is so you're that big on the gear.

SPEAKER_03 33:47

You gotta look though, look good, feel good, baby.

SPEAKER_05 33:51

Even Texas, I think Texas has some sick gear, some sick collabs, like and they have the right shade of orange. Yes, that is true. Yep, there you go. Uh, home field apparel, also another great site. Uh for if you're looking for college football apparel, they do some crazy collabs with uh some of the major schools there. Um, Oregon is now in the Big Ten, which means they play Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, but they also fly 17,000 miles per road games more than almost any team. Does being in the wrong conference geographically concern you for a program that you'd want to watch compete at the highest level?

SPEAKER_03 34:27

Like, does it make a difference that they're so much farther away than the it does, but you had to play the big teams, right? If you're just playing the teams closest to you where you are, it's not as fun, it's not as enjoyable, it's not as competitive on the top end.

SPEAKER_07 34:40

I don't think so, because you want to see them play Michigan, you want to see them play Indiana, you want to see them play Ohio State, but the bottom end, if they're on the road game to the bottom end of the Big Ten. Eh.

SPEAKER_05 34:52

Yeah. And I know I gotta paint my picture here, KK. So it's you driving down south from Vancouver. Oh, leaked um on the I-5, two and a half hours later, or four hours later, I guess. This is geographically not correct. Probably more than that. I'll take some washroom breaks. Sure. We're ruining my little moment here. Um, you're pissing in a gas station. You've done pissing, now you're back in the car, you're in Eugene.

SPEAKER_06 35:18

Close your eyes.

SPEAKER_05 35:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 35:21

Close your eyes. Imagine yourself pissing at a gas station.

SPEAKER_06 35:25

Are you feeling good? Did you get some snacks?

SPEAKER_03 35:29

That's happened many times with that way.

SPEAKER_05 35:31

So uh you park near the stadium, you know, you get there. You hear the stadium from the parking lot. 54,000 people, one of the loudest crowds in college football, despite its size. It's Saturday afternoon in the Pacific Northwest. The mountains are behind you. The ducks take the field in a uniform combination nobody has ever seen before. This is your backyard team, KK. How do you feel?

SPEAKER_03 35:55

Feel good.

SPEAKER_05 35:55

Oh, he feels good. I think we had him when we said pissing in a gas ticket.

SPEAKER_03 36:01

That was like snacks.

SPEAKER_05 36:02

That was the start of something beautiful there. Yeah. He bought some snacks, he stopped at a loves. It was all fine and dandy. Now, the next one is we're gonna go Hawaii Rainbow Warriors. So Hawaii games are almost never on the major networks, but as Brandon said, it's always great when you're blitzed out on a Saturday and you see Hawaii's playing.

SPEAKER_07 36:23

Hawaii is D Gen Central, man. D Gen Central. You're done. Your parlies have either hit or they've crashed out. You're either in a good mood looking to make one last bit of the night, or you crashed out and you fucking want to go full D Gen and double down on a team.

SPEAKER_05 36:38

People hate this, but if you're like a guy that stays up late on a Saturday, fucking love it.

SPEAKER_07 36:42

You're at a bar. Not even if you're not even at your bar, you're at your fucking home having some drinks at fucking home or doing whatever. The kids are fucking asleep. D Gen fucking.

SPEAKER_06 36:52

I don't know how you start here.

SPEAKER_07 36:56

D Gen Central, man, Hawaii is D Gen Central specialists. Well, it'd be one o'clock in the morning when the game starts on the East Coast. Yeah, like they're not watching. Fuck you're about to fucking leave the club. Go go get some fucking waffle house. They probably got to get caught up a fucking one in the morning. Like I said, Hawaii is fucking D Gen Central. And KK, you've been to Hawaii.

SPEAKER_03 37:18

Beautiful place. You love Hawaii. I love Hawaii.

SPEAKER_05 37:21

It's great food there for you. It's a six-hour direct flight. It's beautiful things. Their actual uniforms are actually really nice. Like they're you're gonna have to order it from fucking fanatics and have it shipped to you because it's probably not similar to like Oregon.

SPEAKER_03 37:35

They've got green, it's a green and white.

SPEAKER_05 37:37

Yeah, it's a green and white gear. It's got a unique tropical experience. Um, I think you you don't pick it because you want to compete for national titles. You pick it because you want college football to feel like a warm tropical escape from reality.

SPEAKER_07 37:51

No, you pick it because you want to go full fucking DGen.

SPEAKER_05 37:54

Okay. Yes, yes, that too. Yes. Somebody hit our line. Late night pro late night food provider.

SPEAKER_06 38:01

Late night tax baby. All the people in Hawaii are gonna be like, what do you mean late night DJen? This is like a sunny afternoon game for us.

SPEAKER_05 38:10

Oh man. Um, all right, K.

SPEAKER_07 38:12

We're talking about the continental North America.

SPEAKER_05 38:15

Everybody knows. Okay. KG, close your eyes. You're about to go to Hawaii. I'm about to take you there. It's two, it's a Tuesday. Let's go. He's ready to go. He's ready to go. I'm always waiting to go to Hawaii. Pissing in a gas station. No more pissing in a gas station now. We're going to Hawaii. Uh, it's Tuesday in January. Um, not January. Let's say let's give it a Tuesday in Tuesday in November. It's cold. It's raining. The time has not changed, but it's still cold and raining.

SPEAKER_03 38:47

I don't think it's cold in Hawaii. No, you're not. No, no. This is the side.

SPEAKER_05 38:51

Yeah, here, here. You're sitting here. You open your phone and you, your team just beat San Jose State. The game was in Honolulu. The stadium was palm trees and ocean breeze. The highlight shows the quarterback throwing a touchdown in 80 degree weather while your city has three degrees Celsius and drizzle. That's the Hawaii fan experience.

SPEAKER_06 39:09

That would piss me off.

SPEAKER_05 39:10

You're physically miserable, but emotionally warm.

SPEAKER_06 39:18

I don't want to be in this rain.

SPEAKER_05 39:20

Economically, you cannot be here for Hawaii and like be like, I want to be at every single game. It just does not make sense. So you just have to be graceful. I just want you to know, like, hey, you're gonna be you're gonna feel warmth in your in your insides, but physically you will be drenched at watching Hawaii in November. I'm just gonna paint that out there. I can't tell Kiki likes the drenched from what the rain?

SPEAKER_03 39:43

Yeah, like it's raining here. But you would be drenched if you're watching it indoors.

SPEAKER_05 39:48

Well, it was more metaphorically, but you know, we've really lost the Hawaii. Hawaii's getting fucking eliminated. It's fucking painting. We did not paint them. We're doing a terrible job painting the picture of Hawaii.

SPEAKER_07 39:58

Like, shout out to the volcano in the back, it's going off. Fire in the sky in the sun. You've got that shape fucking ice in your head. There you go. And the volcanoes on the other. At any point, every island in fucking Hawaii is from a fucking volcano.

SPEAKER_05 40:16

At any point a national disaster can occur and wipe your entire team out. We might have to do this again. Yeah. Yeah. Next thing you know, we have no more rainbow warriors. It's like that town in Idaho with 12 kids, 12 kids on the football team.

SPEAKER_07 40:31

I went to Hawaii for a fucking weekend. I got there like Friday night and I left Sunday night. Yeah. I had to go for one of my best friend's wedding and I couldn't get any more time off work and they wouldn't give me another day. I was like, I could call him sick, but I didn't. Should have. I should have. See when you said I went to Hawaii.

SPEAKER_06 40:49

I was in Hawaii for like 50 hours. When you said the volcano will hit your team, and then that's it, you need another one. I know Brandon was thinking, oh, can't there just be like a tornado in Oklahoma that just wipes out the sooners? Absolutely.

SPEAKER_05 41:04

Okay. That is awfully close to Arlington, Texas. All right. That is awfully close to Jerry World. We don't want anything to happen to Jerry World. God bless Jerry.

SPEAKER_07 41:15

Wind blow it fucking the other way, then. Can build a new one.

SPEAKER_05 41:17

Oh, yeah, I guess that is true. All right, fellas. Last one in the West Coast conference. This one's easy. Everybody knows this one. Washington Huskies. The closest team, an hour and a half away. Listen, great pizza spot, by the way. If you're going down to the Huskies game, there's this like dive sports bar. I'm not gonna bother giving them a free ad, but there's a sports bar there. They have really good pizza, like phenomenal pizza. It's some of the best. Um they're in the Big Ten, same as Oregon, same coverage. Uh, purple and gold is distinctive, but less globally recognized than, of course, Notre Dame or Alabama. Um, they got a Nadidas deal, that's pretty solid, not Nike level prestige, but you know, the W logo is clean. You get tons of merch. You cross the border, Ross, Coles, fucking wherever you want to go. You've had tons of tons of huskies merch. Fred Myers, they got all that stuff. Um, listen, I'm not gonna dive into this too much. All right. This is the only place where you can sailgate. That is phenomenal. We were supposed to go there last year, fucking Nebraska.

SPEAKER_07 42:19

Fuck you, Nebraska.

SPEAKER_05 42:21

That's why they're not in this fucking bracket. Um, we were supposed to go there last year. We're gonna go there this year. We're gonna make it a thing.

SPEAKER_07 42:27

We're gonna Are we going to Nebraska this year, too?

SPEAKER_05 42:29

We are gonna pay a visit to Nebraska. Omaha has no idea what the fuck's happening. Uh, my thing is it's like, okay, okay. It's the easiest to get to. It's the easiest to to you know buy gear for um when it comes to in person. It's the easiest that you know you can go to as many games as you want, you can sailgate, you can go down. It's an easy trip, it's an easy coming back. You got Nexus, it's fucking fantastically easy. How do you suck? How do you say no? It's just so easy because they suck. Now it's time to make your distinction between these lovely West Coast teams.

SPEAKER_03 43:06

Fortunately, I'm gonna have to eliminate Hawaiians.

SPEAKER_05 43:09

Oh wow, I wonder how you did that one.

SPEAKER_03 43:11

Well, you're not one of us, you're not one of us, not a DJ.

SPEAKER_07 43:15

No, he didn't want to be a big one.

SPEAKER_03 43:16

I don't think I would bat the game there. I think I'd be like on the beach there.

SPEAKER_05 43:22

You should go to Hawaii. KK will be in Hawaii on the beach wearing the gear of the team he picks. Watch. Just you wait and watch Hawaii Rainbow Warriors.

SPEAKER_03 43:32

He's gonna wear some some you can't do that when you're in Hawaii. Yes, you can. You get a blend in, man.

SPEAKER_05 43:37

No.

SPEAKER_03 43:37

What are they gonna do to you? They wouldn't care. They wouldn't care. You get a blend in, man.

SPEAKER_05 43:41

There's not Tuscaloosa. Speaking of Tuscaloosa, that's the next one.

SPEAKER_03 43:44

I heard you, man, but you you wouldn't be nice to them, man. Hawaii.

SPEAKER_04 43:48

I I'm I'm confused. You're not leaving.

SPEAKER_07 43:53

Hawaii fucking Hawaii Smoke like the fuck team you wear right now? You know where the fuck you are? You're a long way from the continental United States right now.

SPEAKER_03 44:04

That could happen when you're still walking around Hawaii at like 4 or 5 a.m.

SPEAKER_05 44:08

Oh dear. Oh dear. Okay, fine. No wearing other merch. Apparently Hawaii's a fucking apparently you can't wear another merch in Hawaii. I did not know that. I was unaware of the way they roll on Hawaii. Why do you want to wear your what are you gonna wear? A hoodie or sunny man. Wear nice flip-flops of your team. Oh you got the Alabama Crimson Tide maybe on there.

SPEAKER_03 44:26

No, fuck that.

SPEAKER_05 44:28

Come on, man.

SPEAKER_03 44:29

You don't rev the other team's team's flip-flops in Hawaii.

SPEAKER_05 44:32

You guys are really fuck not.

SPEAKER_03 44:34

You guys are my team earlier.

SPEAKER_07 44:42

Miami Hurricanes logo.

SPEAKER_02 44:43

What the fuck?

SPEAKER_07 44:45

You're probably wearing if you're wearing a Miami Hurricane shirt, it's probably a fucking tank top. That fits in Hawaii.

SPEAKER_05 44:50

But I'm confused as to why we're suddenly thinking Hawaii Rainbow Warrior fans are like some rabid fan base. Yeah, they're not. Their stadium can only seat 9,000 people. They don't even have a stadium at the moment. They don't. Go build your fucking stadium. Don't fucking tell me what clothes I can wear.

SPEAKER_07 45:10

I would love to see you stand up with a fucking couple. I would just love it. Just watch him fucking pick.

SPEAKER_02 45:15

You would have picked up with one fucking finger, man. Hey man. Spencer Fano with a close friend of mine. It wouldn't be one of Hawaii, man. It would be like three or four of them.

SPEAKER_05 45:23

Hey man, I'm just gonna tell him, hey, Spencer Fano's a close friend of mine. Uh we go way back. I'm gonna just start naming Polynesian players. Puka Nakua, Puka Nakua. Great, great state, Hawaii, beautiful plays. But I can't you for the it's okay. You know what? Games are too late.

SPEAKER_07 45:39

You speaking of places, he's gotta be in bed before the games start. That makes sense now.

SPEAKER_05 45:44

That's also so you talk about places where you don't want to wear opposing rival colors. Now we're about to get into that category. Now we're about to go into some real football teams here. Sorry, um, Hawaii. Everyone else. Sorry, Hawaii. Uh, first off, we're gonna start off. What's the category? This is the Southern uh Southern tradition. So SEC schools, programs that take college football the most seriously. It's religion in the South. Alabama, Auburn, and Georgia are three of the winnings programs in the dominant conference in American sports. The trade-off, they're far. The games are early in where we are, and you'll never truly feel like you belong unless you live there. But the football is a leak. We're gonna start off with Alabama 101, 821 capacity at Bryant Denny Stadium. Tuscaloosa. Um the most broadcast team in the SEC for good reason. I mean they've been wit like just winning for the last decade, so I don't blame them. Uh this is a full travel day. Uh, you're gonna fly into Birmingham, not England, Alabama. Two to three connections, nine and ten hours total to get there. Uh there's no direct flights. This is a pilgrimage, not a trip. Um, you will be traveling for a whole portion of it. However, uh true Alabama fan does it once in their life and says it changed them. So that is what the rumor is. That is one trip that they did and it was phenomenal, and they say there's no trip like it. Uh, uniforms, come on, guys. Nike deal, clean uniform, highly marketable, great times, good vibes. I would say the New England Patriots have called sports. Is that a fair uh estimation? Yeah, yeah. Um 18 national championships, KK. Nick Saban has retired though. Calen DeBoore is the new head coach. Are you picking the legacy of a dynasty or the current version of a program that may or may not maintain that standard?

SPEAKER_03 47:42

You would have to go with the legacy of that program.

SPEAKER_05 47:45

Yeah, it's hard, man. It's hard. Like when I was going through the schools, and like obviously I didn't have Alabama on my list because it's just a wrong place for a brown guy like me to be. Sorry, K. It's the right place for a brown.

SPEAKER_06 48:00

Yeah, he's just a little weird.

SPEAKER_07 48:05

I mean it's he can be best friends of the role time really, though.

SPEAKER_05 48:10

No, no, but it's the best as gonna be the best. The best is bathroom looking at him looking at me at him looking at the difference of fucking brown.

SPEAKER_02 48:18

Why is it a bath for Brown gonna be in Alabama?

SPEAKER_05 48:22

I realize what I said. Is that your excuse for not? No, I just feel like it's just, you know, not as it's not as well.

SPEAKER_03 48:32

You know they call it like sweet home Alabama, right?

SPEAKER_05 48:34

Buddy, I can't you can't do your I feel like we're sweet home for the residents, though. I would be concerned love machining you around Tuscaloosa, you fucking pay fucking fucking someone's wife and who was originally his cousin and now we're fucked.

SPEAKER_03 48:47

Is that what you see out of them as? Um play the pet.

SPEAKER_05 48:53

I play the pet. I'm so started to all of Joel Norris's who have joined our program.

SPEAKER_06 49:00

Oh man, what's this nice Christian podcast?

SPEAKER_04 49:05

Oh dear, oh they're cutting fucker, they're cutting fucking don't turn it off. They're fucking each other they're fucking Canadian. What the fuck?

SPEAKER_02 49:16

I'm waiting for you to say, KK, close your eyes.

SPEAKER_05 49:22

KK, close your eyes, you have to fucking close Alabama. KK, close your eyes, you found Matilda. Let me take uh let me take you on a ride down Mat.

SPEAKER_06 49:33

Okay, so I'm not gonna really I I can't really speak much more about the I'm gonna sound like Brandon on this one. You cannot pick Alabama, okay? As an L because I'm an LSU fan and I'm I'm gonna I'm gonna make you I'm gonna make I'm gonna make you look like roll tie Willie with no teeth. I'm gonna kick your teeth you're gonna be all gums like there ain't no way you're picking the tide, okay?

SPEAKER_05 50:00

Nothing but the tide, nothing but the tide.

SPEAKER_07 50:02

Um you mean like that commercial roll tie, roll tie.

SPEAKER_05 50:07

Okay, close your eye picking real time. Let's get this thing under control.

SPEAKER_03 50:11

Imagine a brown guy being in Alabama, is that how you start? No, no, no, no, no, of course not.

SPEAKER_05 50:16

You're not brown. Um, he's honorary white now. Uh white on the inside, right? Yeah, yeah. Here we go. Coconut Oreo. He's a coconut. Hey, he's not black.

SPEAKER_06 50:29

He's not black on the outside.

SPEAKER_05 50:31

Whatever.

SPEAKER_06 50:32

He's a coconut from Hawaii. We brought him down special. Yeah, Hawaii's come back. Hawaii coconut.

SPEAKER_05 50:39

Um, yes. 101, 821,000 people in Bryant Denny Stadium. The PA plays ramer jammer after every Alabama touchdown. The crowd is so loud, the earth shakes. Nick Sabid built something that doesn't happen in sports anymore. A multi-decade dynasty at the highest level. You'd be joining the most successful program in the history of American college sports. The history is already written, KK. You just be reading it. That would be the Alabama way for a nice coconut man like yourself. Now we'll move on to their biggest rival, which is Auburn. Uh listen, Auburn is a little bit easier to get to, and you go into a little bit more of a fun city. You get into Atlanta. You go into Atlanta, drop in from some Magic City wings. See some boot booty booty cakes. Yep. Uh and then you just do a little 90-minute drive from Atlanta down to uh that down to Auburn. Um it's it Auburn is a beautiful college town. Um it is actually like people say, like people say Tuscaloosa because of the success everyone goes there. But when it comes to like the college town and how amazing it is, it is actually Auburn. Like it is that is by own means. Orange and navy, distinctive color combination. Um it's less globally dominant as Alabama. You're probably gonna have to online order some of that gear. Uh, I think Auburn is the Pepsi to Alabama's Coke, not cocaine, but Coca-Cola. The underdog and the most intense rivalry in sports. The Iron Bowl. Picking Auburn KK is not just picking a team, it's picking a side in a war that has divided families for generations. And you do it with no baggage, no history. You would do it with pure choice. Now, I'm gonna paint the picture for you here. Here we go. You're at Jordan Hare Stadium, Auburn just scored against Alabama. 87,000 people lose their minds all at once. The stadium is shaking, you're screaming War Eagle alongside 80,000 people who have waited their entire year for this moment. The Iron Bowl is not a football game, KK. It's a cultural event that happens to involve a football. That's what you'd be joining if you went down to Auburn. Could be a beautiful thing with the Tigers. Could be.

SPEAKER_06 53:01

I was gonna say that's where Bo Jackson went.

SPEAKER_05 53:04

There it is. There's some pedigree. There's some pedigree. And now the final team is my god, Georgia. Uh Stanford Stadium, 92,000, more than 92,000 people. One of the most broadcast teams. They've got a marquee slot on CBS, always features them. Listen, it's the same route. You go into Atlanta, 90-minute drive to Athens, not Greece, Athens, Georgia. Come on, guys. Uh, one of the cleanest jerseys, one of the best, I think one of the best mascots. You can't go wrong with Uga, little young Uga. Um they are the program right now, man. Like they Kirby Smart has built uh he's built himself a powerhouse. Uh two recent national championships, um, great college town, music scene, food, culture beyond football. Um listen, between the hedges, there's no phrase more evocative in college football. Stanford Stadium is surrounded by hedges that have been there since 1929. Every great moment in Georgia football history happened between those hedges. When you pick Georgia, you pick every legendary player who ever ran through that tunnel. Herschel Walker. You pick the national championships, you pick Kirby Smart's dynasty in progress. Now, having said all that lovely stuff, it's now time for KK to make his wonderful decision.

SPEAKER_03 54:21

Question for this LSU fan here. Oh, yes. Oh what's with the hatred for Alabama, but not Auburn? Because Alabama's a big rival for LSU.

SPEAKER_06 54:31

That's why.

SPEAKER_05 54:32

Auburn is Auburn's got their own battle with Auburn has Alabama.

SPEAKER_07 54:37

Alabama has LSU. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 54:39

It's like different trees of well, we're gonna have to eliminate make this LSU guy happy. Let's eliminate Alabama because you can pick yourself. No, no, no, because I'm a Bo Jackson guy and Alabama fucked him over. Yeah, that's true. Oh, there we go.

SPEAKER_07 54:53

There's some fine words. There we go, KK. Alabama did fuck over, I want I want to.

SPEAKER_03 54:58

Alabama guy that ended up at Auburn. No Iron Bowl in this final.

SPEAKER_07 55:03

Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, no kick six.

SPEAKER_06 55:06

Good pick, good pick.

SPEAKER_05 55:07

Matthew, for the rest of the episode now, is happy. He's in a tranquil state.

SPEAKER_06 55:11

I don't care who else you picked back.

SPEAKER_05 55:13

Yeah, no.

SPEAKER_06 55:14

You could always bring him back from the finish. That might happen. That might happen.

SPEAKER_05 55:17

You could always bring him back in the finals. You could always bring him back in the finals. You never know. Uh the rising powers, guys. So these are three programs that are not the old guard. They're schools that are redefining what college football looks like in 2026. Clemson, Texas, TCU shocked the world. I think TCU for record here, KG has been to a TCU game. Uh Matthew's been to a TCU game. I've been to a TCU game. This is a very good time. So I think out of sheer respect for that experience, KK has added them in, if I'm to be so bold and make that assumption.

SPEAKER_03 55:45

Yep, because I've been there. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 55:47

Yep. All right. Let's go with Clemson, guys. Uh, Memorial Stadium, Death Valley, 81,500 people. Uh Clemson Tigers. They got an actual tiger up in there, I think. Do they? No, that's LSU. Sorry. Sorry, apologies. The real Death Valley. The real Death Valley. Yep. Sorry.

SPEAKER_06 56:02

They can't pick in them either. Uh that's another veto. Yeah. Clemson, because it's not the C. There can only be one Death Valley. Yep. It's not Clemson.

SPEAKER_05 56:10

So Clemson is in the ACC. Um, we don't get as much coverage as some of those other schools we talked about. Um, but they're gonna be on ESPN and ABC. Uh, how to get there. So you go into Charlotte and then it's a one or two hour drive. So it's eight and nine with connections. Uh Greenville is smaller but closer to campus. Clem Clemson itself is a small college town. It's about the experience, not really the city, I think. When you go down there, or um they've got their big uh they've got their big deal with their retailer, they got a distinctive orange jersey. Um, some big name quarterbacks have come out of there. Um Dable Sweeney. That now that's how we feel about him. Uh uh, they run down a hill and her on their face.

SPEAKER_07 56:56

It's like the fucking watching the fucking wheel of cheese cheese wheel race.

SPEAKER_05 56:59

Um The Hill, Howard's Rock, Dabble Sweeney grabs a megaphone, 81, more than 81,000 people losing their minds, you're running down the hill into Death Valley alongside the team, and the noise is so loud it physically hurts. For 60 seconds before a single play has been run, you feel like you belong to something ancient. That's what Clemson's all about.

SPEAKER_06 57:18

Now I already know he's kicking them out. This is the look on his face.

SPEAKER_05 57:22

Now we got TCU. So I won't go into you know how to get to TCU. I know, yeah. You know exactly where the school store is, you know exactly what angle like what promotions happen, you know where the beers before the game. You know the jets go over, you know the the pregame spots, you know how to get there. All that stuff is fine and Dan. You know where the nice sorority girls were hanging out with their with their parents that day. It was a good old time. I will I will just say they have been recently to a national championship game where Georgia beat the fuck out of them, but they did get there. It was a great time going to go horn frogs. That's all I'll say. Now, pivotal, pivotal time here, KK. This is where the just where the good things happen. You want to be a part of something, KK. I was once lost like you. I was lost. I didn't have a home. I thought I had a home. I'm gonna really feel L.

SPEAKER_04 58:14

You did have a home. I thought I had a home. I thought I had a home.

SPEAKER_05 58:18

But it was once again not a home for a brown man. Now it's but it could be home for another brown man. Maybe the spot I left. Hey, here we go here. Okay, Texas. Biggest media, right steal in college, football, SEC, you know, beautiful thing. Austin, phenomenal city, one of the best cities you can go to. Incredible food, incredible culture, incredible comedy scene. Kill Tony, the comedy mothership, Joe Rogan. Hey, come on now. The brand, the burnt orange and white longhorn brand, is one of the most recognized logos in all of America.

unknown 58:54

Hook'em.

SPEAKER_05 58:55

Um, you got the Nike deal available everywhere. The Hook'em Hanjuster is understood universally. You got Matthew McCone chilling on the sidelines. You got an Arch Manning, you got Steve Sarkeesian, you got a good time. They've got the biggest brand in football, 100,000 Seats Stadium, SEC, Austin, burnt orange. Biggest stage. And you know what? Me and B Sam, we're already there. We're already we got a nice little spot for you at the tailgate, you know? It's already there. Got some barbecue going. I got some of that Texas barbecue, you know, that Terry Blacks. Good times. Um now, I'll paint the picture for you for Texas. I think I did it already, but I'll do a formal one. The University of Texas, a tower glowing burnt orange after a long horns win. Over a hundred thousand people in DKR Stadium chanting Texas fight, the hand gesture, welcome, recognized around the world, and Austin is just waiting for you after the game. Live music on 6th Street, barbecue that changes your life. Texas football is not just about the game day, KK. It's a cultural experience. Now I await your decision. Which team, unfortunately, out of these rising powers, gets eliminated.

SPEAKER_03 1:00:15

I'm sorry, TCU, but there's Oh, there we go. There'll be only one team in Texas. So I want to say at some point.

SPEAKER_07 1:00:22

Battle of two oranges, you better pick the right fucking orange. Okay, so there's only one right shade of orange.

SPEAKER_05 1:00:28

How we're gonna do this. Okay, so we have gone in and we have eliminated um so USC has been gone um out of that uh matchup, and then Hawaii has been gone out of their matchup against Oregon and Washington, and then Alabama has been gone against their matchup, and TCU has been gone. So now you get to go, and it's this is gonna be quick and easy now. We painted the pictures. Convicts versus Catholics. Here we go. What's the rationale? You gotta give me a rationale. You gotta be like, okay, you gotta use your turn to paint the picture. Miami versus Notre Dame.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:02

Are you a Catholic or are you a convict? Growing up for Notre Dame and Miami.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:08

Oh wow. So wait.

SPEAKER_07 1:01:12

Did you have the starter jacket of the Fighting Irish? Did you have that starter jacket?

SPEAKER_03 1:01:16

No, I only I only had hats of a hurricane hat and a fighting Irish hat. Alright, let's hear it, KK. Break it down.

SPEAKER_07 1:01:23

Are you a Catholic or are you a convict?

SPEAKER_03 1:01:27

I'm not really a Catholic, but I'm not really a convict either. I'm not liking what you're doing to me here.

SPEAKER_05 1:01:34

You're making me but like, okay, who would you what does it come down to between them?

SPEAKER_03 1:01:40

Growing up, I did like a guy on The Fighting Irish named Ribismail. Maybe a Notre Dame guy. Like there's another guy that came out of Notre Dame and Jeremiah Loves. Oh, you love love. He's the love machine. I gotta I gotta go with Notre Dame.

SPEAKER_04 1:01:57

Oh I'm shocked.

SPEAKER_07 1:02:00

I thought he was like this was gonna be more of a finals matchup than a fucking second.

SPEAKER_05 1:02:08

Oh my days. Oh my days. Notre Dame knocks out Miami. Wow, it could be back from the start of this.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:16

I thought Miami was gonna be the team. I thought Miami was his team too.

SPEAKER_07 1:02:22

It was a part of the Miami that's gonna come back from the dead now.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:26

I'm telling you, Rudy, that Rudy movie now, it touched his heart.

SPEAKER_05 1:02:30

Now you got some locals. You got some locals in your next pick. Oregon versus Washington. So this is tough because you've got one that's really close, and then one that's slightly farther, but has like it's a bigger program. There's more pedigree there.

SPEAKER_07 1:02:45

People often one team is offering us tickets. Keep that in mind.

SPEAKER_05 1:02:49

Yes, we do have tickets.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:50

Okay, well, don't go basically.

SPEAKER_05 1:02:52

No, don't go, don't go basically. The other teams could listen to this and absolutely be like, actually not offering us tickets.

SPEAKER_03 1:02:59

I'm not really a Nike guy. I've been a rebound guy. Oh growing up, I was always huskies. Eat all the merch across the border. Yeah, it's right there. Sorry, Oregon. I gotta eliminate you. You're still not gonna win.

SPEAKER_05 1:03:15

Oh man. Okay. I expected that. Okay. Now you got Auburn versus Georgia. This is a tough one.

SPEAKER_03 1:03:21

That's a tough one. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 1:03:22

This is tough because you got two big boys in that in that matchup.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:29

Break it down. What are you thinking? Yeah, you gotta think out loud here. Like the people listening to the podcast are God Tyler, what does he say? Yeah. What's more of like uh significance for you? What stands out in one of the other programs?

SPEAKER_07 1:03:42

Are you a bulldog or are you a tiger? Some fucking odd silence.

SPEAKER_06 1:03:47

Some fucking odd silence. We're like fucking trying to stomp. I gotta look something up. Oh no. What are you looking up? Break it down. The milk test. No milk test of what he's milk testing the population. Milk test are money milked. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 1:04:06

Are you a peach guy? Do you like peaches? Take it. You like big peaches? I do have peaches. Yeah, they do.

SPEAKER_03 1:04:15

You like big peaches for me. So I was a big Bo Jackson guy. Came out of Auburn. Oh. But that was a long time ago.

SPEAKER_06 1:04:24

Oh. So what were you? What were you checking?

SPEAKER_03 1:04:25

Yeah, what did you check? The last time I've been talking about Auburn picture. This quarterback guy that's right on the charge is one of the best ones. Probably an end up with the goat at the end of the day. Matthew Stafford. Yeah, I knew he was going to Georgia. Oh, sorry, Bo in Auburn. I'm going with Georgia.

SPEAKER_05 1:04:47

Here we go. Last matchup here. This is gonna be big. This is gonna be big here. Um Clemson versus Texas. I think the choice is very clear to you.

SPEAKER_06 1:04:59

I think it's pretty easy. Pretty easy.

SPEAKER_07 1:05:01

There's only one fucking right answer here.

SPEAKER_06 1:05:04

The right orange? The right orange, man. Not burnt orange. Don't uh like what are you gonna do? Don't succumb to peer pressure. Yeah. Matthew, after telling him, don't you fucking bear pick on the battery?

SPEAKER_03 1:05:14

Yeah, that well. Sorry, Cumpson. I'm gonna have to let you go on this one. There we go. I might get my ass beat up before the things will work.

SPEAKER_05 1:05:25

Brandon has currently taken out a sledgehammer.

SPEAKER_03 1:05:28

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 1:05:29

Oh no, it's a chainsaw. Um, all right, fellas. So we have a chance. This is where I'm gonna let you guys rank the final semifinals. So the final teams that are left, Notre Dame, Washington, Georgia, and Texas. So you guys get to pick the bracket.

SPEAKER_07 1:05:46

I think you gotta put Texas up with Georgia.

SPEAKER_05 1:05:49

Yeah, I think so. I think Texas versus Georgia, and then you'll Notre Dame versus Washington. Yeah, I think that's what the I think that's what I think that's the I think that's the or unless unless two of the unless both of those are on your no no he'll.

SPEAKER_06 1:06:04

We're gonna go independent with Big Ten and SEC.

SPEAKER_05 1:06:07

SEC. Okay, here we go. Okay, okay. We'll start with Notre Dame Washington.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:14

This is a big one because now you have your I thought those two would be in the final one.

SPEAKER_05 1:06:18

You have a big one here. You had a team that you grew up cheering for, that's close by, that you can buy merch easily, but the other team you could also buy merch easily because it's global.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:29

Well, one of the teams just had big time history. So they gotta end up being history. I gotta go with Washington.

SPEAKER_05 1:06:39

Oh my god. Wow. Oh my days. Oh my days.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:44

The two teams I thought were gonna be in the finals are out. I gotta say sorry to my buddy James. Oh my days.

SPEAKER_05 1:06:51

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:52

So we got Washington in the finals?

SPEAKER_05 1:06:54

Oh my days.

SPEAKER_03 1:06:56

Damn.

SPEAKER_05 1:06:57

Oh, okay. Georgia versus Texas, an all SEC matchup. Uh Uga versus Bivo.

SPEAKER_07 1:07:04

What happened the last time those two matched up in the Sugar Bowl? I don't know what happened. I don't know.

SPEAKER_06 1:07:12

They put a fucking dog in a red fucking sweater next to a fucking beast of a fucking bull. Can you guys put the bats down? Can you put the bats down and let the man think for one second? Jeez. I'm coming, I'm out for fucking blood.

SPEAKER_05 1:07:32

Okay, KK. I'm gonna put up the clip here so you can watch Uga charging or Uga getting charged at by Bevo. It's just fantastic. This poor dog. I know. They just really they really thought.

SPEAKER_07 1:07:42

They're bringing him up in the fucking dog carrier on a cart and everything. Look at this.

SPEAKER_05 1:07:47

Okay, this is guy got the cart guy going. Got a nice little golf cart. Hello.

SPEAKER_07 1:07:51

This little fucking dog carrier. You know, Beebo hasn't looked at it. And there's a fucking fucking ton. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:07:58

Look at look at that dog. He's just there for he has no idea what's about to fucking happen.

SPEAKER_07 1:08:03

What are you doing? Oh, you're letting me out. Oh, you're gonna put on my red fucking sweater now.

SPEAKER_06 1:08:07

This dumbass puts his red shirt on in front of a longhorn.

SPEAKER_05 1:08:11

Yeah, I know. It's just fucking easy. You got the leash, the red leash out. We're gonna like forward this a little bit here. Uh you got the red leash. Beavel is yet to turn around. I remember he's looking at the wall. You wonder why. And then they brought him, they put him down and they're like, oh look.

SPEAKER_07 1:08:23

In the red fucking sweater.

SPEAKER_05 1:08:25

Look at the guy's pet name.

SPEAKER_07 1:08:26

Oh, he's so cute. Look at everyone. Oh, he's so fucking cute. Look at this guy. Can't fucking breathe. He's a good guy. He's a fucking bulldog, man. I know. Oh sorry, that's a pug. Never mind. No, no, no. Bulldog's also. They got the same fucking shit. They can't breathe very well. Oh shit! Here comes Get Off My Lawn! It's my lawn! Okay. My fake ass lawn. But it's my lawn.

SPEAKER_05 1:08:54

Now, KKK, after watching that, after watching that beautifulness, um You're an old man. You said get off my lawn more than once.

SPEAKER_03 1:09:01

You could also say that the dog just He's got wheels. He outran him. Well, you know I'm a Stafford guy. I love him the you know, he's up there, but I like him too on the Rams. I liked him on Detroit and the Rams. Hey, but before he won a Super Bowl, but I like his Totnus on the on the line. There's another quarterback higher up as the goat, in my opinion. It was Peyton Manning. Oh. So I'm gonna go with there's another Manning playing on Texas. So let's go to Texas. There we go. Maybe Arch Manning ends up being the GOAT of all time.

SPEAKER_05 1:09:33

Oh my days. Well, well, well. Texas with another another bracket appearance. Matthew's like, if there's three of you guys at the end of the day. You guys are fucked.

SPEAKER_07 1:09:44

Bro, fucked. You gotta learn how to be an influencer, man. You just you just gotta threaten the right ways. Like you're not threatening the right way.

SPEAKER_05 1:09:50

You gotta get LSU into this fucking thing. You gotta be like, I know they're not gonna be right. Yeah, they weren't even in the fuck. They weren't even in the LSU in here. You won't even be fucking considered.

SPEAKER_06 1:10:00

Do you need to be able to LSU in the I could pick up Buddy? Throw up the straw picture. Throw up the straw here.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:08

I like the guy that sometimes cheers for the underdogs. I think LSU and the wide state are both overrated.

SPEAKER_07 1:10:13

Oh fighting words! Fighting words! Let's go!

SPEAKER_06 1:10:18

How dare you! So now the No, you know, I don't even want you being in the LSU fan. After that, after the shit. Joel Norris already shit on LSU when he was on here. I mean LSU guys.

SPEAKER_07 1:10:30

But Alabama's the program.

SPEAKER_06 1:10:31

That hurt my feelings. So you know what? Nothing can hurt you more now. Go ahead, join Texas like the rest of the.

SPEAKER_03 1:10:38

It could hurt more if I bring back Alabama and choose Alabama. Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_05 1:10:41

So let's paint the picture here. People are probably like, why the fuck are they screaming at each other? Here we go. Washington versus Texas. You are allowed to bring one program back from the dead to make this a triple threat match. Are you choosing to do that at the stage? Yes, I am. Oh which program would you like to bring back from the dead?

SPEAKER_03 1:11:06

Let's bring back another day.

SPEAKER_07 1:11:09

Oh yeah. I thought it was gonna be Miami.

SPEAKER_05 1:11:13

I thought it was gonna be Miami because he picked Notre Dame over there. Okay, so now you have the three-headed monster, you've got Texas, you got Notre Dame, you got Washington. You're gonna have to eliminate one program to make this a one-on-one match. Who would you like to eliminate?

SPEAKER_03 1:11:34

Sorry, let's eliminate Texas.

SPEAKER_06 1:11:39

Oh my gosh. Oh, he wants to run it back. Washington, Notre Dame. Okay. He wants to double he he he's he's thinking it over. Okay, alright. I respect that. How does that feel for you guys?

SPEAKER_05 1:11:50

That is how does that feel? You know what? It's alright, I guess. I mean it's okay.

SPEAKER_07 1:11:55

Apparently, I don't have that much of influence.

SPEAKER_05 1:11:57

Yeah, yeah, he kind of jinxed it before. Um okay, KK. Just the third.

SPEAKER_07 1:12:02

But at the same time, it can't be three on one. That's just that was just unfair.

SPEAKER_05 1:12:05

Yeah, it would be a little unfair, guys. Um KK, this is possibly one of the biggest decisions when it comes to football fandom that you're gonna make. You got the team that's local close by that you grew up cheering for. You got the team that's got the movie.

SPEAKER_03 1:12:22

I was cheering them before the movies.

SPEAKER_05 1:12:25

You got a team that's you've also cheered for in Notre Dame. You've got the you got the notoriety of the national brand. What what is it gonna what are you what are you currently thinking? Which way are you currently deciding? And how are you feeling about this matchup between Notre Dame and Washington?

SPEAKER_03 1:12:44

Do I go with the Lend legendary Notre Dame football program? And do I have to be Catholic now? No, or do I go with the You gotta pick a new church to go to on Sunday? Or do I go with like the home team, Washington, right?

SPEAKER_05 1:13:04

Find out next time on the North.

SPEAKER_07 1:13:07

Do you like purple? Or do you do you like the navy blue? Because I'm pretty sure they both have gold.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:13

They both have gold. I like navy blue, but that doesn't come down to color.

SPEAKER_05 1:13:20

And I think it's deeper than that.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:21

I think it's it does when it comes to orange. Yes.

SPEAKER_05 1:13:24

For orange, yes.

SPEAKER_03 1:13:26

I love the history of the past, but I gotta go new school and I gotta go to Washington. I knew it.
