He's exactly who Wisconsin should be going for.

The Falcons will make the playoffs in 2023

Falcons that division's completely wide open. Yeah. Who do you think wins it? The Saints. Just cuz they got Derek Carr. I mean, I need to see what that looks like. I like what they did on defense and I like the coach.

Aaron Rodgers can play deep into his 40s like Tom Brady

The 1990s Buffalo Bills are a dynasty

Do you consider the bills of the nineties of Dynasty? ... I would [say so]. We'll never see that again. Ever. We saw Brady, we saw Brady with the Patriots and Belichick and they didn't make four in a row... the bills of the early nineties dynasty there, there's names from that team that are all over the hall of fame.

Urban Meyer would fail if he returned to college coaching in the transfer portal era

You think Urban would be able to coach in the transfer portal era where somebody's basically like, I don't like the way you've treated me... His way or the highway. And as you know, and you'll get drafted. There's now a highway. There's now a highway.

The Cowboys collapse is the biggest surprise of the season, and the Falcons are the biggest disappointment

The Chiefs have the defending champs and they have to me the MVP of the season now is my prediction going in and just so you know, I'm not the only one they're saying that you know about that Mahomes.

I have to get my hair cut every 10 days because it grows back in weird spots

I need to get my hair cut every 10 days... it cannot be buzzed because if it gets buzzed it grows back weird. Truly what I do have grows all the time to the point where I need to get my hair cut every 10 days... if not, it just grows in very difficult spots.

Scott Hanson is a superior RedZone host to Andrew Siciliano

I'm sticking with my preseason prediction that the Rams will beat the Patriots in Super Bowl LIII

I take the Rams over the Patriots. Yes, I do... I am technically copping out because those who make predictions or are forced to, when you make a preseason prediction that actually turns out to be spot on – I now have the cover of saying, well, I predicted it before the season, so I can't give up now.

Ohio State will stop beating the crap out of everyone now that Urban Meyer is gone
