Rivalry Week, Big 12 Debate, Canada Canned + Chiefs Drop the Ball + Vegas GP Recap - EP 84

Golic & Smetty

Welcome to our Thanksgiving episode! Before we dive into the wild world of sports, Mike and Jess discuss Turkey Day. Jess opposes the classic meal choices and is sick of turkey; Mike challenges her being over it all in her late 20s. Ham, roasted chicken, whatever your preference – they agree there is NO rule when it comes to the main dish. Changing topics to college football, Mike points out the match-up of the weekend will be Ohio State against Michigan. One team that wasn’t on Jess’ radar this season was Louisville, but now she has them in her conversations after they secured a spot in the ACC Championship game. They debate who is making the college football playoffs, as well as the Big 12 Championship game. Jess questions if it’s going to be Texas and Oklahoma. Mike makes his case for the Heisman Trophy winner either being Oregon’s Bo Nix or Washington’s Michael Penix Jr. They can’t leave CFB talk without ignoring the haters who keep poking at Notre Dame’s independence and their contract with NBC (which has been going on for 33 years!) Moving on to breaking NFL news, Matt Canada was fired from the Steelers today. Jess isn’t shocked they let Canada go but is more surprised that they made the decision mid-season. They breakdown the Steelers game against the Browns, the decision as a whole and what the team needs to do to make the playoffs. Staying on NFL, the Chiefs dropped the ball (literally) against the Eagles on MNF in a Super Bowl rematch. Jess has concerns with KC’s problems moving forward. Golic and Smetty round out today recapping the fiasco that was the Las Vegas Grand Prix and if the race was a success. Have a great holiday and we’ll see you next week!
