boys and girls, it was a slow week in and
around the Texas college football world, with a number of
programs having bye weeks. Texas Texas A and m SMU
Texas Tech the Sooners up to our North. The UTSA
Roadrunners were off, the Texas State Bobcats were off. But
we've still got some important matchups here over the week.
And one local school and when I say local, I
mean right in my backyard. That holy crap, what are
they drinking in the water? And Denton over there with
the North Texas mean Green five and oh for the
first time, it's the fifties, since before even me and
Joe Green arrived to town at the old Fouts Field.
But let's start the show off with Connor Wigman and
the Houston Cougars as they best the Oregon State Beavers.
A struggling Oregon State Beavers team, by the way, they
are winless on the season. They're zero to five now
after a twenty seven to twenty four defeat at the
hands of our Houston Cougars and Connor Wigman. It did
go to overtime. The Beavers had a shot to break
that winless streak, but up in Corvallis, Ethan Sanchez kicked
a twenty four yard field goal in overtime and Houston
rallied from a fourth quarter deficit for a twenty seven
to twenty four victory over Oregon State last Friday night.
Wigman threw for two hundred and seventy yards and two
long fourth quarter touchdowns for the Cougs, who are now
four and oh, their best start since twenty sixteen, when
they opened with five straight wins. M Murphy threw for
two hundred and one yards and a touchdown for Oregon State,
which now falls, as I mentioned, to zero and five
on the season. The Cougars trailed twenty four to ten
in the fourth quarter, but Wigman threw a twenty seven
yard touchdown pass to Steven Johnson to close the gap
with just five point fifty nine left. Houston tied it
with Wigman's fifty yard pass to cant Tanner Cooisele with
three forty to go, and it was a kind of surprise.
Speaker 2: Come from behind.
Speaker 1: When the way the Cougars could not move the ball,
they could not score for the majority of the game.
Houston coach Willie Fritz commented after game of how much
of a hard win it was. He noted they didn't
play very well in the first half, particularly on offense,
but somehow they put it together in the second half
and mainly in the fourth quarter when the team needed
it the most. The Beavers got within field goal range
with five seconds left on the clock, but backup kicker
Cameron Smith's twenty I'm sorry forty six yard attempt was
blocked and the game went into overtime. Oregon State's fourth
and one attempt felled in overtime before Sanchez's game winning
field goal. Cozoyle said, I mean nothing brings a team
closer than a game like this. Now we've looked at
each other in the face of a loss and brought
it out to a win. We're going to come back
stronger end quote. And that's kind of the first time
that Houston's been put in this type of situation in
a game, being down that much and needing a last minute,
fourth quarter comeback, and it builds character. Wigman's been in
that situation before at A and M. He certainly has
the skills, has the know how, has the knowledge to
bring a team back like that. He just hasn't been
faced with that in his time in Houston yet. And
now you've got past that. I think it was good
for coach Fritz. It was definitely good for the team
to experience that. And yes, it does bring you closer
together when you get a scare like that and you're
able to pull it off for sure. But you know, overall, man,
Houston's performance, they've got some some things they need to
look at here, most definitely heading into week six, uh
as they're going to have uh you know they what
God ad look look at look in the mirror, look
yourself in the mirror. Uh, to to figure out some
deficiencies here. There wasn't finger pointing. This isn't that kind
of team. There's no finger pointing. But as you prepare
to play number eleven Texas Tech this weekend, man, you're
going to have to play better than you did against
Oregon State and come up with some answers ahead of
Texas Tech. Because te Texas Tech is firing on all cylinders.
They are also unbeaten. They're playing way better than you
are right now. And uh, just that's look and it's
it's it's it's at home. You have a home game
against Texas Tech, so you will be in Houston. That'll
be good for you. But right now, the way this
team performed against Oregon State, it certainly has some question marks.
It certainly raises some eyebrows, and you definitely have some
answers that you need to find two questions, especially on offense,
especially on offense.
Speaker 2: So Houston moving forward.
Speaker 1: Again against Texas Tech, that'll be a good one. Texas
Tech up to number eleven. They were off as I
mentioned this past week, so plenty of time to prepare
for the Houston Cougars. Connor Wigman and Willie Fritz another local.
We're supposed to have our transition. I have like transition music,
and I don't know if I'm gonna or not music,
but like sound effects. I'm gonna play with it and
see if I can somehow put this on the video
as well. But we go when we change topics, we're
supposed to do this. I don't know what do you think, y'all?
Let me know if we like that to change topics
or a fight should just go Dinger's click a bell
or something. When I change games and change teams, I
don't know. I'm still kind of new to doing this
talking about so many teams on one show. I certainly
implore you if you have a better way for me
to transition from subject to subject, team to team, program
to program, let me know should I should it be
a bell or are we okay with.
Speaker 2: I don't know. Let's figure something out, you guys.
Speaker 1: Let me know at any cartim on all social media channels,
or if you're watching the video, just comment underneath the
video in the comment section. Let me know what you
think we should do or if anything to transition to
break up the monotony here of my voice for certain,
let's move on now to your Yeah, let's move on
now to the Baylor Bears as they improved to one
in one in Big twelve play with a forty five
to twenty seven win over the Oklahoma State Cowboys, one
of our few teams up to the north here that
are playing this week, and just wasn't a good day.
The Oklahoma State Cowboys as a program, of course, are
in disarray, huge disarray right now, getting rid of Gandhi
after so many years. It's it was our first game
without Gundhy and it did not go well. Twenty seven
points offensively though, that's certainly not anything to laugh at.
But man, defensively, the Cowboys just had nothing to answer
for Baylor in the forty five to twenty seven win.
Speaker 2: Sawyer Robertson throws four.
Speaker 1: Touchdowns in the spoiler in the first game without Gundy
on the sidelines. He also threw for three hundred and
ninety three yards. And you know, again, the first game
without Gundy in more than twenty years. And I'm sure
it felt weird for the players, it felt weird for
the fans. But you know what, that's that's the game,
right It's the business of the game. That's college football.
And you deal with it and you move on. And
you know, their searchs for their their their permanent coach.
Is it going to be Doug meacham there in? Who knows,
he's fairly new to the program. They may seek out
somebody with a little more experience, maybe from one of
those smaller conferences. I'm sure there are names that we
will get into next week when we when we see
some of those and I've seen some now, but I
don't want to. You know, they're in the middle of
their season. I don't know how much they're looking to replace.
Meet them here in the middle of the thing. They'll
probably wait till the offseason to make any decisions or
to take anything seriously there, and.
Speaker 2: That's how we should address it too, right.
Speaker 1: Robertson through each of his touchdown passes to a different
player and also ran for a score. Josh Cameron caught
six passes for ninety eight yards for the Bears, who
had six hundred and twelve total yards of offense. Baylor
coach Dave Randa took nothing for granted coming into the day,
especially with the Cowboys trying to turn their season around
and get a win for meet them in his first game.
Dave Rannis said, quote, it's very very difficult place to play.
The crowd's right there on you, and when the crowd
has energy, it is a loud spot.
Speaker 2: End quote.
Speaker 1: And yes, it is a loud spot up there in Stillwater.
I can attest to that personally. Zane Flores passed for
a career high two hundred and thirty two yards and
Trent Howland had a career high had career highs of
eighty four yards and two touchdowns on the ground for
the Cowboys, again one in three overall, zho to one
in the conference. Now so despite the loss, though, you
have to feel good. It was kind of a significant
improvement for the Cowboys when you look at their previous
losses sixty nine to three to Oregon, nineteen.
Speaker 2: To twelve to Tulsa.
Speaker 1: The Cowboys did post a season high offensively of four
hundred and forty eight yards. Meets Them said after the
game quote, it's a testament to Mike building a culture here,
picking the right kind of guys that will fight through
adversity and come together as a team. And I think
that I was really impressed with that part. Had a
lot of fun. They were having fun, and that's really
what this is all about. In vote Well, Doug, that's
real easy to say when you lose and when your
program's kind of in at shambles. I know you just
took over the job, but that's not really what it's about.
It's about winning, and you didn't win. But at the
same time, let's celebrate the I guess the performance. It
wasn't a bad offensive performance. Again, we talked about defensively though,
but yeah, let's build the kids up. I don't like
that statement that's really what it's about, because it's not.
But you know, maybe that's part of the problem up there.
Maybe that was part of the culture Mike was building
up there, that it's just, hey, let's go have fun.
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter if we win or lose. Let's go.
Speaker 1: Let's just go have fun. Of course, there's no way
that Mike was doing that. I speaking jest, but again,
it kind of maybe gives you a little bit of
an indication that there's a little bit of a problem
up there in still Water. Oklahoma State showed early that
it planned to open things up offensively. The Cowboys scored
their first points of meet tenure on a double pass.
Receiver Sam Jackson the fifth completed a twenty six yard
touchdown pass to tighten Josh Ford that tied the game
at seven in the first quarter. Robertson threw three touchdown
passes in the first half to help Baylor take a
twenty eight to twenty lead at the break, despite Oklahoma
State outgaining the Bears three forty nine to two eighty
five by the half, Howland added it to his career
day by throwing a thirteen yard completion then running it
in from a yard out on the next play to
cut Baylor's lead to thirty five to twenty. Seven in
the third, but that was the closest that Oklahoma State
would get on the scoreboard. The Cowboys were conservative on
offense in their first three games, but under Meacham, as
I mentioned, they showed early that they were going to
open things up. They took more chances on Saturday, and
they got positive results from those chances. They had five
passing attempts by non quarterbacks, four from Jackson and one
from Howland. Jackson completed three or four passes for forty
six yards, and meet them implied that Jackson will continue.
Speaker 2: To throw the all. They're making that part of their offense.
Speaker 1: He said, quote moving forward, I mean, if I'm on
defense and he's on the field, you better back up
a little bit or base up a little bit, because
that kid's a weapon.
Speaker 2: End quote.
Speaker 1: Hey, there's always the element of surprise, right when you
can't when you can't beat them straight, just the element
of surprise, right, So whatever it takes to win, I'm
okay with that. The four Baylor players who caught touchdown
passes were Cole Wilson, Michael Trigg, Kobe Prentiss, and the
tight end Klopfenstein always wanted to say that name on
the year. Matthew Klopfenstein apprentice is seventy three yard touchdown
grabs for passed his full game total for yards receiving.
So now what's up for Baylor. Well, they appear to
have the offensive firepower now to compete in the Big Twelve,
but the defense was a little bit leaky, as it
has been all season. The Cowboys, of course, showing that
they have a pulse and that could be enough to
say satisfy the fans and attendance who were active and
loud throughout the game. They just needed change right up
in still Water. You just had to show something and
that wasn't gonna happen with Gundhi. The message had become stale,
his coaching had become stale. And I don't know, it
might have been a couple of games too late. I
know you don't want to move on from a guy
super early in the season like that, but you had
to have signs in the off season that this was
coming here. Just a couple of years removed from competing
for a Big Twelve title, by the way, against these
Baylor Bears.
Speaker 2: But man, it's.
Speaker 1: Just just a bad look for the for the Cowboys
up in still Water. But as I mentioned, we had
most of the teams here in Texas that we normally
talk about off, uh, so we're gonna expand things just
a little bit. For the Baylor Bears though. Moving forward,
how at three and two they are preparing now for
Kansas State on Saturday. It's an ESPs ESPN plus game
for the for the Bears at eleven am. And then
if I can open my schedule for your Oklahoma State Cowboys.
As you know, technology is always a great thing until
you need to rely on it, and you need to
depend on it, and it's just not always a great
thing when you.
Speaker 2: Need it to be.
Speaker 1: As the Oklahoma State Cowboys again one and three overall
on one one now in your Big twelve prepare for
their next game because I continue to stall here on
Saturday at Arizona, and that is at a T and
T game that will also will be on True TV
and over on HBO Max. That is two pm Central
time at Arizona. So things not getting too much easier
for the Bear, for the Cowboys or the Bears for
that matter. But as we transition, I like that maybe
we'll stick with that. We have to get into the
hottest team in the state of Texas right now. It's
not the Aggies, it's not the Cougars. It's definitely not
the Longhorns, not the Bears, not the Mustangs. Maybe Texas
Tech might have something to say about this, but overall,
how about those five and oh? North Texas mean green?
Or is it those mean greens? I really suck at
plural things in the English language when it's worded this way.
The North there, the North Texas mean green green. I
guess could be singular or plural as I digress thirty
six to twenty two over those South Alabama Jaguars one
and four, they're zero to two on the road. Hawkins
scores three times to lead North Texas to a thirty
six twenty two win over South Alabama and a fight
an impressive five and oh start Caleb Hawkins third touchdown
of the game and sued North Texas six to twenty
two win on Saturday, the mein greener five and oh
on the field for the first time since nineteen fifty nine.
That's not including nineteen seventy seven, when North Texas began
five and oh, but only after a season opening loss
to Mississippi State that was later forfeited by the Bulldogs,
So yeah, that doesn't count. This is a legit five
and oh. On the field, Hawkins had one hundred and forty
yards rushing on sixteen carries with two scores seventy eight
yards receiving with a touchdown. Hawkins had one hundred and
forty yards rushing on sixteen carries.
Speaker 2: I just said that, didn't I.
Speaker 1: He has seven touchdowns in two weeks, after scoring four
times in a forty five to thirty eight overtime win
over Army last week. His final score was a twenty
seven yard run with two minutes remaining, during which he
broke multiple tackles. That came after the Jags close to
it in six when Ken Trell Bullock scored on a
two yard run to cap a ten play eighty seven
yard drive with six to eleven remaining. Hawkins scored on
a six yard run to give North Texas a fourteen
to seven half time lead, then took a screen past
sixty eight yards early in the third quarter for a score.
Drew Mestemaker was fourteen or twenty six passing for two
hundred and thirty four yards and a score for the
Mean Greens Mean Green Mean Greens, and he also ran
for a touchdown. Miles Coleman also scored on the ground
Bishop Davenport seventeen to thirty four for one to ninety
five in a touchdown. He also took an interception for
the Jaguars. He also ran in a score Devin Voice
and had ninety seven yards receiving on five catches. And
Rod Gibbs also had a touchdown catch for the Jags,
which has lost.
Speaker 2: Now four straight.
Speaker 1: But the North Texas Mean Green are the topic of
conversation as they should be here locally in North Texas. No,
I don't mean just North Texas because that's the school,
but geographically here in North Texas, in an area that
includes TCU, that includes SMU. But yeah, there are good
things and mess to make is the also the topic
of conversation after if I here heard this correctly, not
ever having started in high school or at any level
of football, he finally gets his chance in Denton, and
he is making the most of things at five and
oh now the Mean Green three and oh at home
uh And it's man, if you have not caught a
Mean Green game, if you are, I guess potentially a
fan of you know another program whatever.
Speaker 2: That's fine.
Speaker 1: If you want some exciting football, go check out a
North Texas Mean Green game. They are They're on TV
pretty much every week and if you're local, go catch
a game there at Dat Coup Stadium. They had sixteen thousand,
almost seventeen thousand on hand last week, not nearly enough
watching the North Texas Mean Green. Go support your Mean Greens,
Green Greens. It is a good brand of football and
it is fun to watch. Just a high, high scoring offense.
Uh and for the most part, a pretty smothering defense
as well. Again, they're not quite the Texas Tech Red Raiders,
but if you're in the area here, that is a
good brand of football. Get behind the North Texas Mean Green, unless,
of course you uh, you're not. You're not in the
you cheer for another team in the American Conference. Uh,
so go do that. They are five and oh Navy
of course in your American Let's go over the American
conference standings here in the FBS one a American conference
or the American I think, is how they are like
to brand themselves. Now, Navy overall four and oh three
and oh in the conference, Memphis five and oh overall
one and oh when the conference, along with North Texas
at five and oh want to know in the conference.
Speaker 2: Then you have two Lane.
Speaker 1: Four and one overall one and oh in the conference,
East Carolina three and two overall want to oh in
the American And then you have the the also rans
here South Florida, those Bulls finally falling this season to
three and one. They have not yet played a conference.
None of these teams, and I'm about to mention it
played the conference game yet. Temple two and two overall
U T S eight. The road Runners also off this
week are at two and two, Birmingham two and two,
Charlotte one and three, Florida Atlantic, the owlsh and one.
Speaker 2: In the conference, one and three overall.
Speaker 1: Then you have Tulsa, who, of course just famously knocked
off Oklahoma State for one of their two wins there,
two and three overall and two in the conference, and
that Army one and three overall, oh and two in
the conference. That American Conference is something to watch. Two man,
there's some good teams. That is an entertaining conference. For
those of you that strictly choose to watch the Big Four,
I guess now the Power four, since we don't really
have a back twelve kind of Yet again we're supposed
to starting what next year, They're supposed to come back
with some new members, but that's neither here nor there.
Speaker 2: We don't really care about any of that.
Speaker 1: Moving on now, as we say goodbye to North Texas
and South South Alabama, let's check out those Texas State Bobcats.
Speaker 2: As you know we have.
Speaker 1: We don't pay just a ton of attention to the
Texas State Bobcats, who were off this week, of course,
but I did want to mention them because I don't
think we mentioned.
Speaker 2: Them last week.
Speaker 1: Three and one overall, they're two and oh at home.
They had a big win over the Nichols Colonels thirty
five to three the week prior, and they're another high
powered offense that we need to pay attention to. I know,
the Nichols Colonels aren't, you know, with traditional college football powerhouse,
but they're you know, in the I guess in the
overall in the sun belt here, Texas State three and
one overall, you know, you're right there in the thick
of things again after being off this week, but we
had to throw a little love at the Texas State
Bobcats for sure. As they're continuing there. I don't know
they're successful season so far. I know it's early. It's
early for all of these schools. But we talked about
some of the Oh I forgot to do this. We
talked about some of the programs that were off. Of course,
the Longhorns, the Aggies. As again, we depend on technology
to show us things, but we had the Longhorns.
Speaker 2: The Aggies. Of course, Texas tech is off.
Speaker 1: We talked about their upcoming opponent, SMU, the Oklahoma Sooners,
the Roadrunners, and the Bobcats. We will talk a little
bit here about week six and and the Texas Longhorns
coming up. Look, everybody's proclaiming that we look. I really
hope you listened to last week's episode. I hope I
wasn't too harsh on the Longhorns. I hope I wasn't
too harsh on art. Look, I'm a Manning family fan.
I grew up a Saints fan. Ar Archie was my
favorite quarterback growing up, and of course, so I followed
to the Great Peyton. Even when he went to Tennessee.
We were all disappointed. But then Eli brings us back
in as he goes to you know, the the rebels
like his dad.
Speaker 2: So I'm a Manning follower. I'm a Manning fan for sure.
Speaker 1: But when we proclaim arts to me and I'm using
finger quotes for those of you not watching the video back,
can we just slow it down a little bit?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 1: Fifty five to nothing against Sam Houston State. He scored
on that first rushing play, and then he sort of
taunted and flexed over that poor player laying on the
turf underneath him, which, by the way, should have been
a penalty. You're not allowed to do that. I don't
know why they didn't call a penalty, but whatever, it's fine.
Didn't have any bearing on the game. Arch knows he
shouldn't have done that. According to him, his mom got
onto it, onto him for it, and good for her
as well.
Speaker 2: She should.
Speaker 1: But there's much more difficult tests coming up for Arch
and the Longhorns than Sam Houston State.
Speaker 2: So for instance, Saturday.
Speaker 1: Back in SEC play, now there might not be a
more difficult test than you had in week one, and
we see how that turned out for Arch and for
the Horns. But you've got Florida on the road at
the swamp now. I know Florida has been up and
down this season. This is still Florida. They should not
be taken lightly. They hung with Miami on the road,
and then you've got Texas OU weekend down at Fair
Park at the Cotton Bowl. Number five OU coming in
and OU is rolling right now. So look, things are
gonna get much more difficult for the Longhorns and for Arts.
So this proclamation that baby he's back, whoa arch? Yeah
this is who we thought we'd see. Okay, it was
Sam Houston freaking state. All right, can we just tap
the brakes a little bit again. I'm pulling for Arts.
I hate the long Horns, but I'm pulling for Arts
because he's a manny. But no, he's not back number one.
He can't be back because he wasn't ever really here.
He has not had a great season. He is still
learning on the fly. So even if he does have
a great game against Florida, we can't say he's back.
We can say he's arrived. Finally, here's the Arts we
all knowing love that we knew was in there somewhere.
But yeah, let's just not man, I don't, I don't know,
I don't. You can't just say he's back. But let's
give him just a few minutes, all right, to do something,
to do something for everybody. As we continue to peruse
the college football schedule, I'll get into a little bit
of I guess Aggie's talk, as they are the sort
of the talk of the town in central Texas more
so than their their little brother in Austin, gig them. Yeah,
I'll go ahead phrase it that way. I don't even
want to do that, like we're not even related. They're
just another school down down the highway there, ninety miles
or so away. But the Aggies, of course have Mississippi
State coming up on Saturday. That is an SEC Network
game six thirty pm Central Time, not you know, every game.
I don't want to say that it's not a test
for the Aggies at four and oh, especially after what
you did to Notre Dame, what you did to Auburn.
And I know the Auburn was a sixteen to ten game,
I get it, But the Aggies did something at Auburn
that impressed me, kind of like they did at Notre
Dame that impressed me, and.
Speaker 2: That is they were able to finish.
Speaker 1: All right, how many times have we seen the Aggies,
you know, whether it's against the top five opponent at
home or on the road like Notre Dame, be in
a position to win that game and then blow it
at the end.
Speaker 2: That's kind of what we're used to.
Speaker 1: Same thing with Auburn, an unranked opponent, but it's an
SEC game on the road.
Speaker 2: And or at home.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry against Auburn, and you had a chance against
an SEC foe to be there and win it at
the end.
Speaker 2: But normally.
Speaker 1: We're used to watching the Aggie somehow just blow it
right and lose that game towards the end. They're not
doing that this season. And I don't know if this
is the Mike Elko effect. You know, when he came
into College Station, what did he say? He wants to
change the culture of the program without throwing his former boss,
jimbo Fisher under the bus, but you know, Elko said
that the culture around the program was bad, and there
are a lot of players that agreed with him. Even
the players that transferred out mentioned how bad the culture
was in College Station with the Aggies as a program. Well,
Mike Elcho has apparently come in and made some sweeping changes.
I don't just mean the roster, but these these guys
all believe they can win now, and they should. This
is a really good Aggie team and we'll see where
it goes. But uh, you know, with the win over
Notre Dame and now I'm telling you that win over Auburn,
I know they're unranked. That impressed me all as much
as the win over Notre Dame, just because of what
I just said that we know, you know, they were
not used to them winning those games. I don't care
if they're on the road or at home, it doesn't matter.
So Mississippi State coming up for the Ags, and then
you've got Florida in college station mode those games at home,
by the way, Then you hit the road to Arkansas.
They no longer played the Southwest Classic at eighteen and
T Stadium like they did I believe for five years.
Last year was the last year of the deal for that.
So now they're going back to campus games. Excuse me.
Then you've got LSU. It's at Arkansas, at LSU at Missouri,
a big three game road trip for the Aggies before
you wrap things up against South Carolina at home. And
then you've got, of course, the Longhorns after Thanksgiving on
November twenty eighth, So look, this Aggie season is impressive,
but it's still.
Speaker 2: Very very early.
Speaker 1: I've seen signs of maybe great things for a great season,
and that's really all you can ask for, because again
we've been disappointed so many times. But man, maybe maybe
Elko's got this thing going. Marcel Reid, if we can
keep everybody healthy, please, can we just not let injuries
be a factor here? You know, for anybody, you don't
want injuries on any program. The NFL is dealing with
multitudes of injuries everywhere, and it's affecting the style of play.
It's affecting the quality of play. You know, you poor
the poor Bengals lost Burrow and their season appears done.
You just paid your receivers and you paid Hendrickson for
this year. Uh. You don't like to see that in
it at any level and definitely not in college. Let's
just keep everybody healthy so that you get the best
brand of football and the best matchups from week to week.
So you guys, let me know what your favorite part
of last week was, what you're most anticipating coming up
in week six? I love to hear from you there.
Speaker 2: Who are you? Who are you cheering for? Who are
you who do you got.
Speaker 1: Look, I don't talk a lot of gambling on this show,
not a huge gambler.
Speaker 2: I do talk.
Speaker 1: Gambling and lines and money, lines and spreads and stuff
on us some other shows. If you guys would like
me to get into that a little bit, just let
me know at indycartem across all social media platforms, or
leave me a comment in the video underneath the video here,
on the fans Stream Sports Dallas YouTube channel, or.
Speaker 2: You know, anywhere you can find me. Just let me know.
Speaker 1: Let me know your thoughts on the show, let me
know your thoughts on the college football season, on your team,
whoever that may be, And we'd love to discuss it
right here on Pig Skin and Burnt Ends. And again
I keep promising we're gonna get into the Burnt Ends
part of that. I'm supposed to have a guest on
today to talk a little bit about that, who had
to cancel at the last minute, So we will reschedule
that maybe for next week, to get into a little
bit of Burnt Ends, barbeque and beer talk on the show.
You know, again, in the interest of corresponding with one another,
tell me what your favorite barbecue point is wherever you
live and why and your favorite beard a pair with
the brisket right here on the College Gridiron Coast to
Coast network. We appreciate everybody being part of this one.

win or lose? What does it mean for the rest
of the season, and we will go from there. Boys,
