(00:00-22:16) Keith from South Milwaukee, former Wisconsin Whitewater football player calls in. Trying to get the Lance Leipold on the show for us. Questions about Milwaukee chili. Ok, that's enough. Audio of Bret Bielema on KSDK talking about having the opportunity to make the CFP. Kansas getting more top 25 votes than Missouri. Hater or homer? Who hurt you?(22:24-33:12) The Thriller album. Gaslighting and rage baiting. The shirt thing got to Jackson yesterday. Jim Dandy from Mikolas yesterday. Would have been a real gut punch to lose that one to the Rockies. Reds and Mets are right there to chase down. Rockies just might be out of it.(33:22-49:07) Jackson loves Cee-Lo. Kurt Warner's son quarterbacking the Fresno State Bulldogs. Texas and Ohio State kicking off at 11:00 on August 30th is a travesty. Dan Orlovsky's 7 QB traits. Jackson's Joe Burrow swagger. The pillow fort line of demarcation. No accidental brush ups. A very platonic footrub is on the table.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Kings of the North

One of the edges for the South over the North in their dominant era of college football? Coaching. Nick Saban and Urban Meyer drove a new era of SEC excellence -- as natives of the North who spent much of their careers coaching in cold weather before turning around Alabama and Florida. How did the Big Ten let these Northern sons get away? Lacking superstar coaching power, the North also fell short in ingenuity. That happened despite a revolution starting in the middle of Iowa -- before spreading through the rest of the country. And then there was the money that wooed a Wisconsin winner like Bret Bielema -- a true Northerner headed South -- and he was just one example. It's the coaching episode of The 25 Year Winter. Thanks for joining us. Producer: Michael Henahan
