Jim Dunaway, Lance Taylor, Ryan Brown, live from the Birmingham Racecourse Casino Studios.

The next round, presented by Bud Light, is on now.

0:19.0

Our number two of the show here, Todd Furman in just a second to talk about the upcoming weekend in the National Football League.

0:27.6

One note I did want to bring up about any given Saturday that was out there, the Netflix documentary.

0:40.7

It finally got to some Texas A&M.

0:42.6

I thought Elko came off looking good.

0:42.9

Yeah.

0:49.7

I really, really thought Levy came off looking good at Mississippi State behind the scenes,

0:50.7

despite all they're losing.

0:53.0

I sort of liked his vibe there.

1:11.1

Every coach ended up, A, cussing a lot more than I thought they cussed. Like the F, I mean, even when they're speaking to the team, it's not like just yelling on them on the pre-o. Like just normal speech, they're dropping the F-bombs like they're in their 20s, which I guess these guys used to be in their 20s, and they've grown up saying the effort a lot.

1:14.0

And I just think it has become a lot more mainstream.

1:14.8

Oh, yeah.

1:23.1

You know, I was reading, if you go to, like, NBC, their sports coverage online, they don't pull any punches anymore.

1:24.4

You used to see the expletives that were kind of like charactered out.

1:28.9

Yeah. They just used the word now. They just roll with it. Interesting.

1:33.6

Every coach except Hugh Freeze, I walked away with being impressed. And I just think he got a bad

1:38.8

editing job. Like they showed everybody else doing football stuff. They never showed Hugh doing

1:43.5

football stuff. They showed him doing preacher stuff. And I think it just came off as a bad edit for Hugh Freeze. Well, I mean, look, there is, when you're doing reality television, it does come down to producers and what they want to show. And I'm not saying Hugh, because Hugh doesn't seem to get on the bad side of a lot of people, very charismatic, infectious guy. But you get on the bad side of one of these producers. Boy, they can put anything out there they want to. I think you got a bad edit here. All right, let's go to Todd Furman, CBS Sports HQ. Todd Furman with us on the Shanara hotline, Alexander Sharra trial attorneys. He is back after his summer break. And when you hear Furman return to the show, you know football can't be too far away. In fact, Dunaway, we're two weeks from week zero tomorrow, right? Two weeks from week zero tomorrow. That's amazing. Furman, what is up, my man? How are you? I'm doing well, gentlemen. I've missed you during my summer sabbatical. Always good to get away. But as you mentioned, Week Zero will be here before we know it. And a couple of intriguing games to kick things off before the meet of the schedule Labor Day weekend. I would agree with you. I mean, Iowa State, Kansas State is probably as good Ireland games we've ever had. It's the best one I can remember. For sure. and when you look at the potential implications for the Big 12, I mean, one of these teams is going to find themselves behind the eight ball. And for an Iowa state team who always starts their September schedule with the in-state showdown against Iowa, there's a good chance if you drop the game against Kansas State and Ireland, you lose the game in state, suddenly some of the goodwill

that Matt Campbell had built up and getting to the conference championship game last year goes

3:11.5

right out the window. My big detraction, though, guys, and this is a little bit more of a rant,

3:15.6

I don't love conference games taking place on a truly neutral site overseas, especially this
