Welcome to On the Bench. I'm your host for this episode, Brennan-Sinone. I'm joined by Zach Blasstein. Chris Ney. We're here. It's a pivotal week.

Guys, like I dropped that already.

Pivotal week as FSU plays pit and a chance to remain ranked,

but to really kind of turn the temperature down a little bit after two losses in a row,

including what was for most of the game, a pretty uncompetitive contest against rival Miami.

Now FSU fans are kind of living the Miami fan base doing their victory lap, and you're just kind of feeling all that.

And yeah, a win is as much needed.

We're going to get into what FSU has to do to beat Pitt, a little bit of a breakdown about

things that Pitt does well.

It's a capable opponent, some intrigue with the freshman quarterback they're bringing in and who played well

last week. So there's a lot to get to there. Zach also has some really cool recruiting stuff I want

us to talk about and kind of sift through. But first, a shout out to our sponsors. Zach, why don't

you show them what you got? I have acquired some Chattanooga whiskey bottled and bond.

I asked Brendan yesterday, I had never seen this in stock at my local total wine here in Orlando,

and I asked him what he thought of it, and he gave it glowing reviews, as he has on this podcast many times.

So got my hands on it, tried it out, really good stuff.

This might be one of my favorite things that I've tried from Chow Whiskey.

They do a really good job at the bottom of the bottom.

I've talked to multiple people like Whiskey nerds who think that's the best thing they do. It's definitely in the conversation for me too. They do a really nice job with it. Comes out twice a year. Zach got his at a total wine. You can find it throughout the state of Florida. Local shops are probably going to have some of those. But you can find in the big box ones as well i think you chad nouguowski for supporting us

and then also the turn of group Colin counted 42 i'm sorry's on the past one uh and i think he

enjoys that to an extent but 42 might have been an extreme that's a lot of pressure yeah that's a lot

we're going to lower it down a little bit.
