This is an IHeart podcast.

And welcome at Lake Higgins live. It is Thursday night, September 23rd, the year of our Lord,

2021. We're jam-packed. Of course, it is a Thursday night, which means we are, well, in some cases, minutes away from week four starting, but in most cases, about 48 hours away from it starting. Got a lot of different angles to go at tonight. There's something I really have tried to find time to talk about this week, but there was no time. So I'm going to do it tonight. You see the thumbnail. If you're watching on YouTube, it says don't get fooled or don't be fooled again. Even though I designed it, I don't even know what it says. But the spirit is there. There are a lot of people, I think, being fooled. And I'm trying to let us not be among them by teams that are already being cast aside. It's not the time to do that yet. Check the calendar. It's not even October. So we're going to talk about some teams that we need to be very careful disposing of. I don't think it's time for that yet. I've got several more thoughts on games that we have not even had time to touch on this week. I mean, like 10 or 15 of them, it's a really good

undercard. There is no top five matchup this week. We're going to be in Arlington, street named Dallas,

for Arkansas versus Texas A&M. You know you got Notre Dame Wisconsin. We've already broken down

LSU at Mississippi State, but guys, there are like 10 or 15 games that if you're like us and you really love the sport and you're not just kind of a flyover fan, there's a lot to get excited about. So I'm going to touch on that. I'm going to talk about Alabama a little bit tonight. There's a conversation going on out there. Some parts I agree with, some parts I don't agree with, all parts I'm interested in about the overall vulnerability level.

We only use that word with a few teams, vulnerable. Are they vulnerable? Because beatable is not

something you're quite ready to say yet because they haven't lost, but I'm going to discuss that

tonight. So, man, what a 72 hour period we've had? I really encourage you, if you have not

already done so, listen to this morning's late kick extra

podcast. I would say wall to wall. It's the most entertaining late kick extra podcast that I think

we've put out. We had it confirmed that over the past 72 hours, one, two, three of our viewers

slash listeners have had appendectomies. I had Director Colin

check and medical Colin says that's when they take your appendix out. And so we've confirmed

that. But what also happened is these folks didn't even miss the show the other night. So much

so that they felt the need to screenshot evidence that, A, they had lost their appendix via medical procedure, and B, they were still listening to the show. And then one of you even said, hey, I'm sitting here wearing my t-shirt from Academy Sports while I'm watching the show. That is the perfect viewer. That is the perfect listener, by the way. So we got some good news coming your way from Academy tonight. It's going to be kind of a but I'm going to let you know as much as I can let you know. And also, and probably the most important thing I can tell you as we dive in, we got viewers all over the place. We give shoutouts when we can. Tonight's shoutout is going just down the road from where we are in Nashville. We're headed to Headland, Alabama, and I'm going to tell you why

we're headed to Headland, Alabama, because that's where Michael Bush is. And Michael Bush is enjoying

a birthday this weekend, and so I just want to wish him happy birthday from not only us here at

Lake Kick, but also the kids, the wife, and everyone in between. But Michael, from us to you, we appreciate

you watching. Happy birthday, brother. I hope the from us to you, we appreciate you watching.

Happy birthday, brother.

I hope the video skipping did not take away from that joyous occasion.
