Here's the thing that makes life so interesting, the theory of evolution claims only the strong

shell survived. Maybe so, maybe so. But the theory of competition says just because they're the strong doesn't mean they can't get the kick. That's right. See what every long shot come from behind underdog will tell you is this. The other guy may in fact be the favorite. The odds may be stacked against you fair enough, but what the odds don't know is

this isn't a math test. This is a completely different kind of test, one where passion has a funny way of trumping logic. So before you step up to the starting line, before the whistle blows and the clock starts ticking, just remember out here, the results don't always add up.

No matter what the stats may say and the experts may think and the commentators may have predicted when the race is on, all bets are wrong. Don't be surprised if somebody decides to flip the script and take a pass on yelling uncle. And then suddenly, as the old saying goes, we got ourselves a game.

It brings me to my knees. I can't start another eight minutes past the hour. Thank you so much for tuning into the kickoff hour 866. We be big as our number. It's the good time gang and we thank you for being here.

We have got a lot to do today. We have got the gold ticket seats going to be here in a couple of hours. If you are part of that group today, the elite great eight or however many end up filling the seats, we look forward to seeing you drive safely getting here.

We have got the Beth Moens game to sound the alarm on unless I talk Rick out of it, which I don't think is going to happen. Also, we'll talk to you about RBU this week. Another great podcast you don't want to miss.

But first, let's bring everybody in over to my left. It's Mr. Greg Burgess to my right. It is Michael Allen. What's up, boy?

Hey, hey, what's happening? What happened?

If you didn't talk him out of it last week, you're not going to talk out of this. Do you want to you and I like go the parking lot?

We could stare at the sky or something like it's not even happening because it's almost like if you don't hear it, did it happen?

I know. You know, that would be nice. I don't know.

But you got a big heart for her now. And I leaned your way on that whole ordeal.

Well, she was just so so. I'm here for you if you need me. Just so just let you know that. Just so so nice.

But throughout the day, if you ever, if you just, you know, I'm not going as far to hug you, but if you, if you need me, just let me know.

Well, there was some concern that I had just because of the way things look at every week you thought you're going to deal with again.

Yeah, around Tuesday night to early Wednesday morning, they released the announcing schedule for college football in the NFL.

And that's how I, you know, I'd do the search and figure out, okay, what game does she have?

And I thought, oh boy, ESPN 2, she's on there a lot.

Oh, UAB 11 a.m.

Yeah, Memphis Tigers, all that. I'm like, oh, no, she's back.

And I'm glad y'all did tell me I didn't have to go back up there, but then I thought man, she's going to call for me.
