We have college football back officially. The first games of meaningful football have been played, who's back of the week and an amount rush more of water. Before we get to all of that, we have a presenting sponsor. It is Dave and Buster's. We've been talking about Dave and Buster's for a very long time. Dave and Buster's adds more winning to anything and everything and everything from regular Friday nights to first dates and especially to watching the game with the guys. It all gets more ding, ding, ding at D&Bs. In this season, there's no better place to watch football than at Dave and Busters because you get more of everything that makes game day so great. Dave and Busters has 40 foot wide TV screens so you can get the best view of every game. |
| 1:05.9 | Imagine watching the game at a regular sports bar on a tiny 12 inch plasma mounted to the other side of the room. It's like Michael Scott's TV. No. No one wants that. Go to Dave and Buster's. They also have new menu items exclusive to this football season like the new chef crafted Blue Moon Pickles because what's the only thing they could make watching a Bears game fun this season. This is that that's mean that they put this in here. That's right. Blue Moon Fried Pickles more drinks more games more space for friends. Dave and Busters is the greatest place to watch football and guess what if there's a break in the action. Every friendly group has a guy that or gal is not that into sports. The time has come to include them in your game day plans because of Dave and Busters DM D&Bs, there's more to enjoy for everybody.

Watch football at David Buster's this year. Big screen TVs, games, menu, everything. David Buster's DNB's Ding, Ding, Ding. Today is Monday, August 30th, and I don't know if you guys have heard this one before. But football is back. Football is back. Also, congratulations to the Baltimore Ravens. Set, they broke Vince Lombardi's record. 20 and 0 in preseason football. The greatest streak, perhaps in all of sports. Simply incredible, simply incredible. So I'm in Cleveland right now. We're taping this in the middle of the afternoon because I'm going to be part of the Jake Paul circus tonight, but We are going to talk some football. We have Kirk Herbs Street on in a second. We have Mount Rushmore We should talk though. So the Baltimore Ravens a good story. They are the preseason champs We should talk real quick though about Scott Frost and Nebraska because the first |
| 4:05.4 | meaningful football game was played. The first meaningful football game points were a safety when a guy fielded upon at the one yard line and tried to throw it out of the end zone. There's a Rouge. They were tempting a Rouge. Nebraska is a complete and utter dumpster fire. I don't know what you do. They I don't know if you saw the graphics they were throwing up there but uh... |
| 4:29.4 | scoffer Nebraska is a complete and utter dumpster fire. I don't know what you do. They I don't know if you saw the graphics they were throwing up there, but Scott Frost is now nine and 18 in big 10 football games zero bowl games. He has the second worst record of any head coach in Nebraska history and It's a complete failure and I feel bad for Nebraska fans. I'm sure they're probably like the fact that they had that type of failure as the standalone game in week zero has to hurt because otherwise you would have just like passed over an Illinois Nebraska game. No, that was everyone was watching that game. That game ruled because it was big 10 through and through Breppiola just grinding them up Scott Frost though |
| 5:05.3 | Total disaster it's tough. It's tough when they put the graphic up and it was big 10 through and through. Brett Bielma just grinding him up. Scott Frost though, total disaster. |
| 5:06.5 | It's tough. It's tough when they put the graphic up and it was Scott Frost and then a guy who looked like he was a 1901 baseball pitcher with the black and white pitcher next to him. And then another guy, I think the other guys profile picture was just a cartoon because they didn't have cameras invented when that guy was coaching. He is like, it's the worst start to any Nebraska coach, maybe of all time. |
| 5:27.5 | And it's not great because they thought that this guy was going to be the savior. He was coming off the national championship at UCF. He was like the, the prodigal son returning. This is the next guy that's going to save Nebraska football. And then he comes in, implement the system that is decidedly not Nebraska and how they run seriously if you're the next Nebraska coach Just buy all the steroids just get all the steroids if you get caught I guarantee you that Cornhawkshire fans will not give a shit if you get caught running the dirtiest strength and conditioning program in the history of college sports besides What's that movie unnecessary roughness you need that no you oh the program are unnecessary yeah both of them had to yeah the program but like you need the dirtiest strength and conditioning coach of all time just cheat just cheat because it would be less embarrassing if you're Nebraska to get caught cheating than it is running whatever you have been running for the last ten years yes and I credit to Brett Bielo because. Because I actually think he's going to be a good coach at Illinois and he plays Brett Bielum a ball that drive to start the second half where he was like I'm just going to run the ball down your throat for 75 yards was vintage Bielum up. But this is like the winner yesterday was actually sneaky Jim Harboff because the prodigal son going home and having it being a failure. Now is like the big one is now Scott Frost because Jim Harbaugh at least got Michigan to like within an inch of going to the big 10 championship game in a college football playoff. Like Scott Frost, they haven't even sniffed it. And it's year four and I would actually say the, like it even the offense he's running it's just the fact that he keeps trotting out Adrian Martinez who I've never seen a guy have an ability to fumble the ball at in opportune times more than this guy like he just is like oh this would be a this specific moment would be a sole crusher okay now I'm in a fumble do you know some fumble six at the end of the half. Yeah, if you're a Martinez, and yes, it is a different Martinez. No one understands that, but they have had a quarterback named Martinez for what feels like 15 years in a row. But because Taylor Martinez was before. That was in like the early two, it was like 2011 to 14-ish. Yes, and now so any time get outdoled by a sit kowski, it's gonna be an issue. And credit shut out, shut out Rutgers transfer. That was exactly it. That was half a win for Rutgers too. Yeah, exactly. So he looked good in comparison, but it was mostly like, is there a coach that you would less rather play in opening day in week zero than |
| 8:05.0 | Bielema. I don't think that there is because overall Sabin over the course of a season. No, I would rather play Sabin because everyone expects you to lose and get crushed by Sabin. But Bielema, like, that's when he's at his freshest. You get a few weeks of actual football and under Bielema's belt is considerable belt. And you're going to be facing a guy that's like a little Born down a little grind. I mean, he's a lot of man big cat. He's lost some weight though. We got to give him credit |
| 8:28.8 | He's lost 30 or 40 pounds. So he he does look. I mean look when you get very big Losing 30 or 40 pounds you're still big, but you got to give credit We're we're trying to get everyone, you know healthy. That's how you know how big he is because he's like I I lost either 30 or 40 pounds. He's not sure. Yeah. Somewhere around there. Well, I think that I think when you're that big, the 10 pound difference is really just the last meal you had. Yeah. Like it can fluctuate just from that. Yeah. Have you shit today yet? Well, then I'm more like 30 pounds less than I was. Yes. So, but yeah, it was, I don't know what to do. I actually now feel bad for Nebraska fans because it was, it was kind of fun to joke about. But now it's like, where do you go from here? Maybe back to the big tour. They really said they have a, I think it's a $20 million buyout for Scott Frost. So like, in all likelihood, Scott Frost is probably probably gonna be there for another year because I always just assume when the prodigal son comes home, he always gets like, it's always however many years he should be fired plus one. You always get that like extra year. So next year probably be his extra year and it's just, it's a disaster. And I want Nebraska to be be good because like you said like the fan base is incredible |
| 9:45.8 | There that's all they have, you know, I mean, that's the big that's the big thing in town Obviously, it's a big thing in the state and they've just been very very bad and I Scott Frost dude he you could tell too he was like He's you know how he was being cocky about last year when he's like yeah, we'll go to to know where to say we'll go to where he's cat exact a standard |
| 10:06.7 | something that will play anybody at any time yeah right been cocky about last year when he's like, yeah, we'll go to, when the word he say, we'll go to where he's cat, |
| 10:05.8 | because that's a standard. |
| 10:06.7 | Something that will play for anybody at any time. |
| 10:09.0 | Yeah, right. |
| 10:22.6 | Now he's like, yeah, this is, um, we're just snake bitten. It's like, no, probably you're just bad. You guys are just bad. Yeah, I blame a couple of people for this, right? I blame first of all the entire university who was the coach was a bill calehan when he did not recruit Danny woodhead from in state the best player |
| 10:27.1 | yeah maybe in the history of the state of Nebraska I blame first of all the entire university. Who was the coach? Was it Bill Callahan when he did not recruit Danny Woodhead from in state, the best player, |
| 10:27.7 | maybe in the history of the state of Nebraska? I mean, to not recruit him, I think that that put a curse. They even let him come out and do his pro day on their field in which Danny Woodhead cucked all of Nebraska's players and outperformed all of them. not recruiting Danny Woodhead, not even sending him a letter, they probably didn't even drive past his house. |
| 10:46.0 | For the four years Danny Woodhead was tearing a bicycle football in Nebraska. |
| 10:49.2 | That put a curse on them number two I blame Warren Buffett if you're the richest dude almost in America and you look you're like the only thing in Nebraska besides the University of Nebraska and you don't like sports that you're a weird. You need to be contributing some money to the program. |
| 11:05.6 | You need to be building up this program. He's a great guy. Yeah, I don't like that. I don't like that. I think that you need to have an affinity for major sports in America, if you're a billionaire. Aralus is just a waste of money. You're just a money pit that we're all shoveling cash into nonstop. So I blame Warren Buffett. |
| 11:23.8 | Like just give some money to the football program Warren. |
| 11:26.4 | Yeah, yeah, I mean it's, it's, it's, it's, |
