Paddy The Baddy and DK Metcalf on UFC, Liverpool, and NFL Taunting

The Coach K Farewell Tour is officially underway, and Big Cat is already on the verge of tears. While PFT is busy investigating Coach K's service time at West Point, the rest of the crew is preparing for a season of sentimental tributes.

I think fans can convince Coach K to come back for another year

I think that if we all bond together as fans, we can convince Coach K to come back after this year is over.

PredictionCBBMildSarcastic
Coach K did indeed retire after the 2021-2022 season following Duke's loss in the Final Four.

Monday Night Football and the Real Deal

Big Cat returned from Pittsburgh after watching the Bears lose to the Steelers, but he walked out of the stadium with a smile on his face. Despite the loss, the emergence of a certain franchise quarterback has changed the vibes in Chicago entirely.

Justin Fields is the real deal

I've never walked out of a game, out of a loss, happier because Justin Fields is the real deal. That's all I took away from that game.

This is subjective but historically interesting; Fields showed flashes but was ultimately traded by the Bears in 2024, showing he wasn't the long-term 'real deal' for them.

Of course, the game wasn't without its controversies. The officiating reached a level of absurdity that had PFT ready to declare the league rigged. The flashpoint was Cassius Marsh getting flagged for a "glare" toward the Steelers bench after a big sack.

Cassius Marsh is the funniest player in the NFL

That guy, he cracks me up. He's the funniest player in the NFL. He's not very good, but he stands out so much. He looks like Cole Beasley if he was a Ninja Turtle.

Subjective opinion on player personality.

The NFL needs to fix the taunting rule because staring at a bench is innocuous

The taunting rule is terrible. They're going to have to fix it... He literally just stared at the bench. That's the most innocuous thing you can do on a football field.

This is a subjective opinion on league rules.

Looking ahead to the schedule, Big Cat is already bracing himself for the inevitable heartbreak of the holiday season.

I think the Lions might beat the Bears on Thanksgiving

I still think they'll probably hand the lions their first loss of the season on thanksgiving day... you mean the lions are gonna beat the bears the lions are beat the bears yeah i was thinking about that when they were talking about the upcoming schedule for the bears and i feel like we're enough people are agreeing with that that we're starting to time the lions win again

The Bears actually won the Thanksgiving game 16-14, meaning the Lions did NOT beat them.

College Football and NBA Betting

In the world of college football, Georgia is currently a Death Star, but everyone else seems to be stumbling. PFT thinks a certain SEC underdog might have the offensive scheme to actually push the Bulldogs, while Big Cat is busy trying to talk himself into a Wisconsin miracle in the Big Ten.

Tennessee's offense is something Georgia hasn't seen yet

I don't want to say that Georgia's going to lose this weekend. But I do think that Tennessee's offense is something that they haven't seen yet... Hendon Hooker's awesome. He's very efficient. They spread out the field.

Georgia's defense effectively shut down Tennessee, winning 41-17. While Tennessee scored early, they were ultimately contained.

I'm fully ready to convince myself Wisconsin beats Ohio State in the Big Ten Championship

I'm fully ready to get my hopes all the way up of Wisconsin beating Ohio State in the Big Ten Championship game.

Wisconsin did not make the Big Ten Championship game in 2021; Michigan played Iowa instead.

Meanwhile, the NBA is dealing with a new Wilson ball that players are blaming for their shooting woes. Since the trend has officially reached the mainstream, PFT is calling for a complete strategy shift.

We are officially flipping the switch and betting overs in the NBA

The story's gotten too big now. It's gotten too national. So now I'm officially acknowledging we're flipping the switch. We're betting overs in the NBA now. Because too many people are getting – once NPR does a story about a trend in basketball, you can be sure that they're the last ones... So now we're betting overs officially.

While NBA scoring fluctuated, betting overs generally became more viable as the season progressed and offensive efficiencies normalized to the new Wilson ball.

Paddy The Baddy Joins the Show

New Barstool colleague and UFC phenom Paddy the Baddy joined the program to talk about his meteoric rise. He broke down the origins of his iconic "cat wig" hair and explained why he balloons up to nearly 200 pounds when he's not in camp. Paddy also gave a masterclass in Liverpool culture, explaining the "Scouse, Not English" divide and why Jürgen Klopp is the only person who would make him starstruck.

One fight and one interview is all I need for everyone in the UFC to know me

I've always said I'll have one fight, I'll have one interview, and everyone will know the Baddy. And it's kind of true. It happened, lad. I saw it coming, lad.

Paddy did indeed become one of the most talked-about fighters in the UFC after his debut and subsequent interviews.

Liverpool is currently the best soccer team in the world

It's great just being able to walk around saying we are the best team in the world... Because we are... at the minute, the best team in the world. And it's fucking great to watch, lad.

This is a subjective claim, though Liverpool was statistically one of the top teams in the world at this moment.

Lionel Messi has more God-given talent than Cristiano Ronaldo

Messi... Ronaldo's man-made, where Messi's God-given talent... Like Ronaldo's work for everything himself, where Messi was just given that talent, where when he's got that ball at his feet, it's like it's super glued to it.

Classic subjective sports debate.

DK Metcalf and the Lambeau Leak

DK Metcalf returned to the show to settle some ongoing beef with PFT and discuss life without Russell Wilson. The conversation touched on DK’s "acting skills" against Marcus Lattimore and the constant frustration of being triple-teamed.

Ole Miss will blow out Mississippi State in the Egg Bowl 60-14

Egg Bowl, I think it's going to be like 60 to 14. Yeah, we're going to blow Mississippi State out.

Ole Miss won the 2021 Egg Bowl 31-21. While they won, it was nowhere near 60-14.

Things took a turn for the weird when the guys pitched DK on a new touchdown celebration. If DK pulls off the "Lambeau Leak" this weekend against the Packers, the PMT crew is committed to funding the inevitable fine for charity.

I would bet I can beat DK Metcalf in a race walk

I actually bet you that I could beat you race walking... I could, without a doubt, beat you speedwalking. I think that that's a sport that I've yet to tap into.

This race never happened, but it's safe to assume the elite athlete would win any form of racing against PFT.

We wrapped up with Guys on Chicks, including a deep dive into the psychological benefits of never changing your car clock for daylight savings and a debate on which contender needs OBJ the most.

OBJ going to the Bucs would significantly increase their Super Bowl chances

What team would Odell go to that you actually think it increases their chance significantly to win a Super Bowl?... It would be the Bucs because... Antonio Brown, there's something up with him. Plot twist, Antonio Brown is unreliable this season.

OBJ went to the Rams and won a Super Bowl. While he didn't go to the Bucs, Big Cat was correct that Brown was unreliable (Brown walked off the field mid-game later that season).

Don't forget to check under your bed for crusty yellow socks.

Based on Week 10 results, Michigan should be the #2 team in the country

If you want to go just from week 10 results, Michigan should be the number two team in the country because they actually handled their business against Indiana, and Indiana never was in that game.

At the time, Michigan had already lost to Michigan State, making them a one-loss team while others were undefeated. They were not ranked #2 until much later in the season.

Dabo Swinney will blame 'the culture of America' and 'this generation' for Clemson's struggles

Is he a system coach where if things don't go well, everything's going to continue to fall apart? Or how does Dabo respond from going through his shitty season? I think he just puts it on his players when they lose... I think he goes even one further, and he goes like culture of America. And this generation, it's this generation doesn't want to be coached.

Swinney did frequently cite the transfer portal, NIL, and 'entitlement' as challenges during Clemson's transition period over the following years.

Odell Beckham shouldn't be on a team. He should just do pregame and halftime performances like Red Panda, where he goes out there with a jugs machine and puts on a clinic of one-handed catches.

OBJ went to the Rams and won a Super Bowl, proving he was still a very valuable team player.

Odell Beckham Jr. will sign with the Seahawks

I think he's going to be a Seahawk, based on the way that DK answered those questions earlier when he was like, no, we're not claiming off waivers. That tells me that he knows that they're going to sign him as a free agent.

Odell Beckham Jr. signed with the Los Angeles Rams on November 11, 2021.
