[@bradmurray7362]

Such a fun episode to listen to.

[@WOLF167h]

And... it's a Great Day to be a Buckeye!!

I don't call it the Ohio state losing streak I call it the Michigan cheating streak

Amen!

Super fly Jimmy snooka was my favorite!

[@robschaller9061]

Tavian isnt beating out Julian Sayin as a true freshman

[@ChristopherSowers-mk2kw]

It might be closer than people think Day has put alot of work into TSC but he usually doesn't start true freshman so it probably be another battle with sayin and Air

or ever

Tom Seaver as the best pitcher ever.

[@lindzbreezyoh]

With a new QB, those 3 games, all of them, are terrifying to me.

[@bradleywright202]

A big emphatic no to Marcus Freeman

[@thomaswillison6993]

Glad the Birm at least mentioned Day as being seen nationally as underrated. Austin and Bill would never say that.

[@stephaniechaffin1154]

Throw in Ken Griffey Jr, Pedro Martinez and Randy Johnson.

Dabo is the most overrated . Seems like he's a recruiter and surrounds himself with good coaches . And evidently he has charisma . But I don't think he actually coaches football .

[@UrbanKnightMedia]

Those things won him TWO Natty’s! 😮

[@DanTheMan51117]

Overrated doesn’t get you to 4 national championships games appearances lol. We can agree his time has passed.

[@buckeyesfanupnorth3048]

What about the Great Gretzky?

[@seeknayog7262]

If Sayin wins the job next year, he could be here 3 or even 4 years blocking Tavian. Tavian could go elsewhere.

[@dreamtimerelaxation8761]

The Goat athlete is Michael PHELPS ... He's telling everyone to hold his 23 GOLD MEDALS. The rest PALE in comparison.

[@jeffreymoeller1122]

Although it is a great accomplishment, They are for swimming. Absolutely nobody compares swimmers to other great athletes in FB, or BB. Unless you are a swimmer, nobody talks about it. If you want to strictly talk about olympic sports then sure... He's definitely not the GOAT athlete. 😂

@@dreamtimerelaxation8761 a fish can’t be a GOAT!

[@robschaller9061]

Texas is going to beat the brakes off TCUN. The game I want to see is the Fresno State vs UM game. Fresno State returns 14 starters off a 9-4 team that won their bowl game. Fresno State doesn't have the raw talent to match UM BUT, UM is a very young team and if they are caught looking forward to the Texas game this game could turn into a battle. The anatomy of an upset is young team starts slow and spputters offensively and they go in at half time with the game still in question they have a shot to put a real scare in TCUN. IF they avoid the scoring onslaught coming out of the half and they can keep the game a one score game in the 4th... I don't think Fresno will win but what I do think, is that it exposes issue that they have. This was going to be a step back year even if Harbaugh had returned. YOu cant lose 44 guys and it not have an impact.
