This is an I-Heart podcast.

I'm the same way you guys are.

I can't believe it.

Probably some of, if not the biggest news we've ever gotten in the college

football world happening right in front of us. Rice is going to a bowl, people. Mike Blumgren took that

program over and in 2018 they had two wins. Then the next year they had three wins. Then there was
