  • Miss Duck!

    It’s nearly nauseating having to listen to Cedric Golden. Too much of a Homer! He lost me at “Texas would have beaten Michigan” had they made it to the National Championship Game. Really? That’s easy to say when Texas went 1-2 last season vs teams with the same talent.

    9-3 and 11-1?? And they both really expect Texas to beat Bama in Tuscaloosa? It will interesting to see how they feel after week four. I think they’ll be 3-1 or 2-2. I think both are not realizing how bad the Big 12 teams want to beat Texas and will give them their best shot.

    Awesome pod gentleman. The interview with Tristan gave me goose bumps as he took us behind the scenes right in time for tonight’s opener in Omaha.

    I love Schnos. And I love how the Duck doesn’t say what most people what like for him to say. You need that in conversation.

    Ced, the fact that you all typically operate from two different vantage points makes this pod quite entertaining. I’m left pondering “Guaranteed $” vs betting on oneself. Do you sell your Soul or do you rely on it? Thanks ge... more
