A tailgater's guide to WSU Cougar Football.
We're back with one of our typically sporadic installments to recap the Night with Cougar Football, helping Rolovich find the bathroom and try to convince AJ Cooper to be a guest on the Saturdaycast. And we dive into Honey, I Shrunk the Kids. It's what we do.
The Saturdaycast recaps the star-studded weekend in Pullman, where Beasley woke up for the first time in ten years. Also, Rolovich's staff is taking shape, and we get into some steamy cinephilia talk to preview the Oscars. #GoCougs w/ @bigwoodwsu, @hendumanchu, @geoffoneil, @seastorm24
The Nick Rolovich Era has officially begun at WSU. We get closure on the old coach, talk about the new hire and how he seems like a nice dad. We also talk about the basketball team's upset of #8 Oregon and set the scene for Klay Day. #GoCougs #MoveTheBand w/ @bigwoodwsu, @hendumanchu, @geoffoneil, @seastorm24
The Leach Era is over. Is this cause for celebration or commiseration? Little of both? One thing is for sure, Kyle did NOT see this coming. We talk potential replacements and give our final thoughts on Leach. For better or worse, he's someone else's quirky problem now. #GoCougs #MoveTheBand w/ @bigwoodwsu, @hendumanchu, @geoffoneil, @seastorm24
Before you gather 'round the TV with your favorite toasted cheesy cracker snacks to watch the Cougs take on Air Force, listen to us provide all the hot takes you'll need to embarrass yourself in front of friends and family. #GoCougs #movetheband w/ @HenduManchu, @GeoffOneil, @SeaStorm24
Saturdaycast takes a break from literally all Cougar Football talk for a week (you've been warned) and go over Star Wars memories, Star Wars expectations and Star Wars blind spots. It's just mostly Star Wars. And Cheez-It Pizza. That's it. We might talk football next week. W/ @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu, and @GeoffONeil.
In this episode, we do not discuss football. We do, however, discuss about a dozen ways you can enjoy Cheez-Its during the Cheez-It Bowl, We also rank beer commercials from the 80s and 90s. You know what you downloaded. Oh, and I guess we discussed bowl games a little bit. Sorry about that. We'll bring more Cheez-It talk from here out. This is now a Cheez-It Podcast. W/ @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu, and @GeoffONeil.
This week, we finally get around to discussing why we didn't care WSU lost the Apple Cup and why we really care that we didn't care (it'll make sense). Also we go over Leach's postgame tirade and wonder where he will end up next season (Production note: we recorded this before the extension announcement. So now you know how we'd feel if he left!) Also we are soccer experts and as such implore you to root for ours Friday. W/ @SeaStorm24, @HenduManchu, @BigWoodWSU, and @GeoffONeil.
So after a fun, if not a little frustrating season, we've finally reached this dumb week. We're going to go over the crazy Oregon State win but also remind you that fandom is terrible and why are we even doing this. Also, three hosts picked WSU to win so that was also hilarious. Follow us at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu, and @GeoffONeil
We spend little time discussing the beatdown of Stanford, a ton of time discussing someone winning the punt pass kick challenge, along with some HOT DISNEY PLUS TALK. There's almost no football. You know what your subscription means. Also buy a Kia Sorento and tell them we sent you. W/ @SeaStorm24, @GeoffONeil, @HenduManchu and @BigWoodWSU.
We spend very little time confirming the idea that Cal Week is a thing and sink back into discussing the best bad movie of the 90s (spoiler: probably Armageddon) and more hot apple talk. You know what you signed up for. w/ @SeaStorm24, @GeoffONeil, and @HenduManchu.
This week we go over yet another rough loss in the final minute and what things mean going forward. Geoff goes into detail to discuss his skepticism of the quarterback's siblings in a stadium beer line and then there's a solid 20 minutes of HOT APPLE TALK. It's not great, but it's a bye week. Sorry. W/ @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu, and @GeoffONeil.
Hey, we won! Hey, our fingers are still pruny! We go over the grossest, yet kinda fun tailgate of the year; discuss the other times we've loathed Cougar Football weather and hey the Cougs aren't alone in last place anymore! Do we have any shot in Eugene this weekend? W/ @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu, and @GeoffONeil.
We discuss becoming yet another team's slump-buster and what it's like to go a month without winning a football game. This is REAL Cougar Football! Also should we take ASU grads more seriously? Can the Cougs go to a bowl? What dumb old movie on Disney Plus should we provide an audio commentary for? Will the Cougs beat Colorado? W/ @SeaStorm24, @GeoffONeil and @HenduManchu
Well, the bye week happened and our DC left town! We discuss whether McBath and Rocco have the staying power of Riggs and Murtaugh or merely an Owen Wilson and Jackie Chan. Honestly, most of this episode is about good tv vs trash tv and we're not sorry about it. W/ @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @GeoffONeil and @HenduManchu.
Where we discuss the thorough ass-kicking the Cougs received not seen since pretty much any other time WSU plays a team with a good defense. We've got varied views on whether or not this is fixable so strap in for some depression! Then it's just 20 minutes talking about our mutual boyfriend Gardner and whether or not it's ok for the country to love him as much as we do. As always with @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu, and Geoff O'Neil.
We stave the darkness and attempt to deflect the horrific WSU loss Saturday night as the ridiculous comedy it was, try and determine whether or not the Cougs win another game this season or if they run the table, and go over Geoff and Blackie's respective run-ins with Johnny Law on Saturday night. W/ @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
THIS WEEK we discuss effective flyer's up strategies, the dumb things old frat dudes do after touchdowns, improving the tailgating scene in Pullman and how the hell is WSU 19 points better than UCLA? Follow us as always @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
We're back to relive a tailgate full of children, determine if there's anything to be learned from the Cougar defense, struggle to find any defense of John Wilber's trolling and LOLOLOLOL the Huskies lost because of weather. W/ @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
1-0, baby! We discuss the thorough beatdown the Cougs laid on the team we still haven't bothered to learn its mascot. We also go over the heat, try to avoid Blackie's suggestion about the new porta-potties and learn the hardest job on the planet is likely being married to Sherwood. And we look forward to another game where we are actively avoiding learning anything about! You knew what you signed up for. W/ @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
Look, we don't really know much about this upcoming game other than WSU is going to win. We're still not sure what New Mexico State's mascot is. We're pretty sure it's the Gauchos or Torreros. So we spend the rest of the time talking about being dragged to Lake Chelan, the new swear words our kids are using, and then shit gets real weird when we all bust out our Super Mario impressions. It's not great! As always, with @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu, and @GeoffONeil
We discuss fashion constructs in Northern Florida, explain our long hiatus through a series of empty cans of White Claw, and find out why Blackie hangs out around the bathrooms at Macy's. Oh also, the team is back! We have a QB race! Do we know anything about football? Follow us at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu, and @GeoffONeil.
We go over the most depressing Christmas day grocery cart, life-changing karaoke scenarios and whether or not the Cougs will win the Alamo Bowl. We did no prep for this game and it shows. W/ @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil
I'm not gonna sugar coat this for you. We get a little dark in this one as we have to cover both the annual Apple Cup loss and the absurdity of the Playoff Committee. We'll be cheerful again next time. But for now, strap in and yell at some walls with us. Follow us on social at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
So another year has passed and I guess we have to talk Apple Cup again. Is this year less hopeless than our usual complete hopelessness? We also go over the MVPs of Thanksgiving Dinner and determine what to do with paper plates you find in the street. Follow us socially @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
We spend some time going over blowing out a team with defense for a change, mourn our time as a McNugget dads coming to an end as our kids grow up and wonder out loud if Horsey Sauce is made from real horses. We turn to the upcoming Arizona game that will be played in front of a half-empty stadium and discuss who is to blame for that. Follow us on the socials at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
CAL WEEK threw every typical CAL WEEK bomb at us, including a few new ones and we survived! Is everyone ok? Also, we do some looking forward that will surely never bite us in the ass next week and really spend the other twenty minutes talking nipples. Yeah, it's weird. GET HYPE. Follow us on social @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu, and @GeoffONeil.
We're back to remind you that 1998 was very dumb (you know what you signed up for), WSU's win over Stanford was very great and playing Cal as a top-10 team is very scary. We go over what scared us as kids and as adults and ponder what would happen if you turned into an iPad. Follow us on social media @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
We run through a weekend's worth of examples of Pullman showing the college football world we went to the most lit school on the planet. We discussed the mating habits of gnats and whether or not it's a good idea to put an outhouse in the middle of a cemetery. Also, now that we beat Oregon, should we be afraid of future games or go full-YOLO? W/ @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY . GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY GAMEDAY . with @GAMEDAY, @GAMEDAY, @GAMEDAY and @GAMEDAY
We go over the billion trick plays the Beavs ran on Saturday, turn forward towards the weird week where both Duck and Husky fans think we're on their side and discuss ESPN hosting Gameday from The Coug. Finally, we comiserate over the idea that a bye week means we have to spend quality time with our respective families. Follow us on the socials at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @Hendu Manchu and @GeoffONeil.
Breaking Bad, Han Solo and the drunkest tailgate of the year. Oh also, we beat Utah. Did you see it? Some of us missed it! Meanwhile we all pretend to be the proper amount of scared of Oregon State while also all predicting three-touchdown victories. Also, keep your damn cheese out of my car. As always, with @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
We go over the audacity of being annoyed we lost to USC, look forward to the most Utah team in the history of Utah and eventually just find ourselves going over how dumb of a year 1998 was...again. Follow us on twitter at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil
Gardner Minshew throws for a billion yards, Travell Harris is still running back that kickoff and Jahad Woods buys us more time to get drunk. We also inspect a rumor that the bowling alley in Pullman runs the best breakfast in town and are taking startup money to launch a Pullman youth sports league. Also, we play USC in three days. Ya'all scared? Follow us at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
This week, we're back to discuss the first tailgate of the season and answer all the questions you never thought to ask, mainly regarding the mating habits of predatory birds, how many grills and stoves should a group bring to cook a damn taco and our newest folk hero: the dude on top of the Ops Buding. Follow us on twitter @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil
We recap what we liked about the Wyoming game and what Blackie liked about Wyoming in general. In lieu of few exciting things to talk about regarding San Jose, we discuss the opportunity to pull over and attend the fair in Colfax. Finally, we break down the benefits of an 8 pm kickoff and wonder why the west coast fans are the only ones who whine about this. This podcast is brought to you by the Crusty Pup. Please don't look that up. Follow us on twitter at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
The most pointless discussion of Cougar football returns for another year and we discuss everything important. Is Ferdinand's important? Do your kids work your genitalia like a speed bag? Are you ready for Cougar football? This podcast is brought to you by a series of dudes who tried to leave and then came back embarrassed when the other option fell through. Follow us on twitter at @seastorm22, @geoffoneil, @hendumanchu, and @bigwoodwsu.
The Saturdaycast is back in time for Spring Football for all your hard-hitting analysis, like "what is the quarterback's name?" and "what is a quarterback?" We're not gonna lie, we fall back into our safe space of cereal mascots and pizza toppings within minutes. Go Cougs! Follow us on twitter at @SeaStorm22, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
We're back! Look, we tried talking about offseason hires and recruiting, but we don't know anything about that, so we get into how today's college kids are bringing back the absolute worst parts of when we were in college and this will not stand. Follow us on Twitter at @SeaStorm22, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
We started recording in the middle of our Cereal Mascot Cinematic Universe and got to business discussing the team not showing up for the Holiday Bowl and if we should just shut up and be happy with nine wins. Are the Cougs just getting started or is this WSU's ceiling? Then we move on to discuss the other news of the week, like whether Rich Rodriguez should just leave the planet or if the inevitability of Alabama each year is good for college football. Follow us on Twitter at @SeaStorm, @BigWoodWSU, @GeoffONeil and @HenduManchu.
Hey Coug fans! It's been awhile; We go over Mike Leach's new contract, discuss if we care or not that Grinch is leaving and oh, hey, there's a Holiday Bowl Game tonight! We did not prepare anything for the game, so we just dove into Star Wars talk. We get pretty spoiler-heavy from 24:20 to 34:00, so skip those ten minutes if you haven't seen The Last Jedi yet. We make our unresearched predictions for the Holiday Bowl, commiserate parenting on Christmas and of course discuss Disney Princesses. Go Cougs!
We spend a good deal bitching about Mike Leach trying to leave WSU and now we have to pretend it didn't happen. Then we find solace in the fact that Arizona State and Oregon are just as messed up as we are. We tried to pivot toward what could be a fun Holiday Bowl game, but really we just went back to bitching about Leach again. Follow us on twitter at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
Twitter is talking so much! We weigh in with a thorough discussion of what to do with the Mike Leach to Tennessee rumors. Follow us on twitter at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
Well, that was not fun. There's a lot of yelling and a lot of swearing in this one, so buckle in and hide your children. Or don't. They might need to hear this, too. We struggle to keep our composure after yet another Apple Cup no-show by WSU, discuss if Mike Leach is leaving (or if we care), and try and decide if there's any way we can get excited for a bowl game against a MWC team. Look, it's not gonna be sunshine, lollipops and rainbows today. We're sorry. Follow us at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
We've been dreading this game all season. Do we still think we're gonna lose? (Mostly!) We also touch a little bit on the 2018 schedule released this week and then go back to bitching about the Huskies again. With @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
We exhale after a wild game in Salt Lake City, take advantage of the bye week by reviewing the first eleven games this season, briefly discuss if Mike Leach and Alex Grinch are dunzo in Pullman and try not to talk about the Apple Cup but end up doing it for a half-hour anyway. Follow us on Twitter at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @GeoffONeil and @HenduManchu
We go over the most dominant three-point win in Cougar football history, discuss the weird things that happen in cold stadiums on Senior Day and begrudgingly look toward a Utah team we know literally nothing about. Follow us on Twitter @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil
We run through the varying stages of grief watching the Cougar football season die off in Tucson. Afterwards, we go over what we should make of the QB controversy, whether or not we're excited for Senior Day and find some time to bitch about the Huskies some more. Follow us at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @HenduManchu and @GeoffONeil.
We discuss attending the wettest game in recent memory, decide whether or not there's merit to the Fieldhouse, weigh how afraid we are of Khalil Tate and learn everything we can about showing steers.
We (try to) move on from the clusterfudge in Berkeley, Blackie regales us with a tale of the time he was not carjacked, and we wonder if we really care that Bill Moos left. Also, there's another game coming up. I think it gets mentioned. Follow us on twitter at @SeaStorm24, @BigWoodWSU, @GeoffOneil and @HenduManchu.
We've been drinking. We're not gonna lie. The need for immediacy outweighs a fancy edit, so here you go. Eff this game.
