Brett Bielema will be a good coach at Illinois

I credit to Brett Bielema because I actually think he's going to be a good coach at Illinois. And he plays Bret Bielema ball... that drive to start the second half where he was like, I'm just gonna run the ball down your throat for 75 yards was vintage Bielema.

Bielema has led Illinois to respectable seasons and bowl appearances, generally being viewed as a successful hire for the program's standards.

Nebraska football is a complete and utter dumpster fire under Scott Frost

Nebraska is a complete and utter dumpster fire. I don't know what you do. They, I don't know if you saw the graphics... but Scott Frost is now nine and 18 in big 10 football games, zero bowl games. He has the second worst record of any head coach in Nebraska history. And it's a complete failure.

Scott Frost was eventually fired in September 2022 after continuing to struggle, confirming the 'dumpster fire' assessment.

Nebraska needs to run the dirtiest, most unethical strength and conditioning program to win games

Seriously, if you're the next Nebraska coach, just buy all the steroids, just get all the steroids. If you get caught, I guarantee you that Cornhusker fans will not give a shit. If you get caught running the dirtiest strength and conditioning program in the history of college sports... it would be less embarrassing if you're Nebraska to get caught cheating than it is running whatever you have been running for the last 10 years.

Clearly satirical; obviously not a serious recommendation for the university, though it highlights the desperation of the fanbase.

Chip Kelly only brought back the visor because he finally has a team that can compete

I'm a firm believer in weirdos, like Chip Kelly. Like he purposely didn't put on the visor until he knew he had a team that could compete. And now he's like, alright, I got my guys I'm ready to roll visor.

UCLA did improve significantly in 2021, finishing 8-4, their best record under Kelly to that point.

Josh Allen is playing quarterback on easy mode

We're a Josh Allen podcast. People sometimes get upset about how much we glaze him. I don't think we glaze him enough because he's playing quarterback on easy mode. It looks like that for him. The flick of the wrist, the runs, everything—it all looks like the game is slowed down for him. He's in just total control of the game.

Subjective assessment of Josh Allen's play and dominance.

The Bears will beat the Vikings, but they won't score 59 again

I think the Bears are gonna win. I do not think they're gonna score 59 points. I do think they're gonna win.

The Bears-Vikings result and Chicago's point total will determine this prediction.
