I am officially 'standing my ground' on the Steelers against the Broncos

My personal stand my ground game where if the Steelers don't win this game, I am done not only with the Steelers this season, but done betting on them, just pretending they don't exist. This is the game that if they have any pulse left, it's a pulse check. If they have any pulse left, they will win this game.

The Steelers won 27-19, so they passed the pulse check and Big Cat's stand-his-ground bet was correct.

I think Geno Smith might be a franchise quarterback

I think Geno Smith, I think he might be a franchise quarterback.

Geno Smith did eventually become a successful starter for the Seahawks in 2022, though at the time this was viewed as a total joke.

I really thought this was the Cardinals' year in the World Series

It sucks because Cardinals were actually my pick to win the World Series, so I feel bad about that. I really did think it was their year.

The Cardinals were eliminated in the Wild Card game and did not win the World Series.

The Packers will dominate the Bengals by 10 points

My favorite's going to be the Packers. Minus three against the Bengals... I see this being a 10-point, never in doubt, Aaron Rodgers kind of dominates game.

The Packers won 25-22 in overtime, failing to win by 10 or dominate as described.

Michigan was definitively the better team in the National Championship and it never felt like UConn was in danger of winning.

Michigan was the better team. We all saw it. It never felt like [the game] was in danger. Like the only moment that I was like, oh, UConn might have a chance, was when there was like maybe five and a half minutes left and Mullens missed that three to cut it to four.

The episode presents Michigan winning the 2026 National Championship as a fact within the show's timeline.

Michigan was the best team all year — outside of Duke, who would have won the championship by a lot

They were the best team. They were the best team all year outside of Duke. 'Cause that actually was my other big takeaway — Duke just completely, Duke beat this Michigan team a month and a half ago.

Subjective comparison of team quality. Duke did beat Michigan during the regular season in 2025-26.

Danny Hurley is 18-1 against the spread in his last four NCAA tournaments, which is insane

Danny Hurley remains 18 and one in the last four tournaments against the spread. How insane is that? Furman is the only one that they didn't cover. That was the first round this year.

This is a factual claim about Hurley's ATS record over the last four NCAA tournaments. Based on UConn's remarkable tournament run, this is plausible and presented as a known stat. Cannot fully verify exact record but the claim is stated as fact.
