  • The two boys who sound the same

    Ones a Duck and ones a Beaver but I dare you to tell me the difference when they talk. Just kidding but really these guys know the area and have a great balance of sports and just talk. No ego and fun takes. Feels like you are at the pub with the boys.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Dirt & Sprague 6-5-26 Hour 3
Q: Let's start there with a hard hitting question. Is Collin Wilson pro or anti-roundabouts?
Collin explains his stance clearly and provides broader context on how roundabouts influence driving experiences in different regions, including his views shaped by Arkansas and the UK.
Dirt & Sprague 5-15-26 Hour 1
Q: With Stephen Willis joining us from Ole Miss Locked On, what stood out about the Ole Miss football program this week?
He provided insight into the current week's developments, the program's direction under Lane Kiffin, and how Ole Miss is navigating media narratives around the team.
Dirt & Sprague 5-19-26 Hour 2
Q: What are your thoughts on the Western Conference contenders and their paths to the Finals?
The hosts weigh the balance of proven talent versus youth, arguing that several Western teams have positioned themselves for deep runs, but simply acquiring one star may not be enough without supporting pieces and draft depth.
Dirt & Sprague 5-19-26 Hour 3
Q: Do you think mid-major programs would benefit under a broader playoff if money is distributed more evenly?
Yes, if the distribution of new playoff revenue is more equitable and includes every conference champion, mid-majors could gain a legitimate pathway, but the system must avoid manipulation and ensure fair access.
Dirt & Sprague 5-19-26 Hour 3
Q: What do you think is the core trade-off between expanding to 24 teams and preserving the regular-season drama?
The core trade-off is adding more teams and opportunities without eroding the value of key regular-season games or turning conference titles into afterthoughts; a well-designed format could maintain drama by protecting higher seeds and scheduling incentives.
