So that's-in-stinky.

That's a good name.

You just used Dave's college baseball photo.

Yeah, he made it fatter.

No, I didn't make it fat. Yeah, he did. Yes, he did. That's just the way your face looks back then. You're chiseled now, Dave. Okay, welcome to the Brackett episode 188. Today we are doing the best college football names of 2025. We did this in January during the playoff last year. And we're doing an updated version now. We're not using any of their participants from the last year, so there are some who are playing this year, which you'll see, like, if you look up the best-off list, you'll see guys like mobility, like mobility, like, mobility, like, general booty, like guys like that. We used them last year. I didn't want to use them again. I thought it'd be We already did We talked all there is To talk about mobility And Uh general booty

And the type of

So We used them last year. I didn't want to use them again. I thought it would be, we already did. We already talked all there is to talk about mobility and general booty and the type. So, shoot, what's his name? Who's that Duke linebacker who had a fucking memorable factor, for example? Like, we're not using them. We're using new guys. And today we have a great ball nowhere in Big Ev joining us over Zoom. We have another two great ball knowers in Chief and White Sox Dave, joining us from Chicago. I believe our normal host, Tommy is out. Nick and KB are both like doing a shoot or something like that. And we have Vibs. We have myself. We should have Pat and Jack Mack, another ball now we're in here as well very shortly.

And let's just, before we get into anything crazy, let's just talk about game time. One of our favorite sponsors here at Barcliffe, if you watch anything, Barclay, you know everything that there is to know about game time. The NFL is back, tailgates, packed stands, and the buzz before kickoff, but getting into that stadium, it's a nightmare. Q's price jumps, getting logged out mid-click.

All you want is to be there, beer in hand, losing your voice with the crowd. The GameTime app gives you the advantage, and it's a hack for unlocking amazing tickets and experiences in just a few taps. It's incredibly easy to use, and the game time guarantee means that you can trust it. You 100% get authentic tickets on time for the best price.

Plus, fees are always included. So what you see is what you get. So I just look for it right before this. We were just talking, what game should we look up? I consider looking at Chargers v. Brazil, but I fundamentally do not agree with the fact that they have to play an international game or that any NFL team should have to play an international game. So I'm out of protest, not even going to look at those ones.

And instead, I'm going to look at charger, or sorry, Vikings at Bears. Vikings at Bears, you can get tickets right now. It looks like Grandstand 3, $290 for opening week. That's pretty fucking good. Not too bad. Not too bad. Great. You see the Caleb Williams show. Yeah, the Caleb, look at that view not too bad right oh it's a great view pretty can't beat that view yeah pretty solid and then soldier field

like a historic historic stadium yeah i mean soldier field it sucks yeah it's not it's not good

i for the benefit of the ad read i was trying to ham it up there. But going to see the Bears prime time, Monday night football, hope is alive. You get there early. You do the tailgate. You can have a great experience. And then hopefully the Bears, you know, make it worth your while. And you can do that all with game time.

Typically speaking, I would say if you could go to any Bears game,

it would be week one while hope is alive, right?

Yeah, because after this, it's going to get, I'm starting a doom cycle with the Bears.

Yeah, he's having some deep thoughts to his brain right now.

I was thinking 9 and 8,

and now I'm like, five wins maybe? I don't know. Mine has gone down too with the charges. I was like, we're like a 10-win team. And now that Larson Slater's heard, I'm down to like probably like eight or nine, something like that. We're down. We're down bad. So sucks to be you guys. Colts are making the playoffs.
