B Wil (2:54)

Unless somehow you're trying to convince me FAU would beat Baylor.

Get out of here. Very unlikely. I'm not mad at the W after last season, so I could stop looking like a fool at work. I said I didn't believe in no nothing until I've seen three weeks of football. Three weeks, I think, you listen, we'll know after week three for sure.

Ike Jones (3:15)

This is so real. Like, like we got to go to like all Alabama folks, like Alabamians, they got to go to work after. And there is always shit to talk about. I ran into a dude I went to high school with at a Circle K. He was making a delivery. Somehow, we got caught up in this thing where we make a bet on the Iron Bowl every year. And I just like every year, I'm just paying out 50 bucks.

And so finally, I'm just like, I'm like, do I want to make the bet? I ran into him and he was like, are we making the bet this year? And I'm like, I think we might be. I think we might be. So it's gotta go to work, man. It's just such a real thing to say like, look, man, the shame, you have to do the walk of shame the next morning after your team loses is crazy.

B Wil (4:07)

10 time champ says, where's Ike's boy Daniel come out here? Now, Daniel was definitely predicting this and Southern Miss as a loss. I haven't seen Daniel since the last time I told him he was tripping. He hadn't been back. So I think maybe I might have hurt Daniel.

Yeah, so 10 time champ comes back, Malcolm Simmons and Perry Thompson combined for one catch each.

Ike Jones (4:32)

Oh, you know what? This is how little I kept up. Where did they go?

B Wil (4:38)

Perry Thompson is at Minnesota. Malcolm is at Texas Tech, I think.

Ike Jones (4:43)

Okay.

B Wil (4:45)

I could be wrong about Texas Tech. I think that's where he ended up though. But yeah, they didn't get very many opportunities. Hugh Freeze may go down as one of the worst talent evaluators in history because he would get five stars, but they don't play like five stars. Like his ability to evaluate and cultivate talent was awful.
