Bri The Sports Guy

The guys discuss Heisman hopefuls (Bo Nix and Max Duggan enter the conversation) then Bri makes his Week 9 College football and Week 8 NFL predictions (Jets over Pats and Rodgers in his last season as a Packer.)

The guys review the NBA's Western Conference depth charts and Bri provides his 2022/23 win totals (Suns at 53).  Bri then makes his predictions for NBA East champion (Bucks) and NBA West champion (Pelicans-that is a hot take)! Bri has the Pels beating Bucks in the Finals (Mike says no).

Mike's Bucks are off to a good start in the NBA; Phillies make the World Series; Ole Miss and UCLA lose in College football; Bengals roll, Jags lose by a foot and the Packers are officially bad in the NFL.

Bri makes his College football Week 8 and NFL Week 7 predictions (Commanders over my Packers, Giants over Chip's Jags, Jets over Broncos and 49ers over Chiefs are Brian's upsets.)

The guys review the depth charts then Bri gives his win projections for the NBA's Eastern Conference in 2022-23 (Only 6 wins separate #1 from #8 in the much improved East).

Wild cards Phillies and Padres surprisingly advance to NLCS; #3 Bama loses in an instant classic to the #6 Vols in CFB- (#7 Trojans and #8 Ok State also lose) while chaos continued in the NFL in Week 6-Jets crush Packers, Falcons roll 49ers, Giants nip Ravens and Steelers beat Bucs.

Shout out to the Sage Valley experience; The guys briefly discuss MLB Playoffs and then Bri makes his predictions for both CFB Week 7-Vols to upset Bama and NFL Week 6-Chiefs to upset Bills in potential AFC Championship preview.

Top 10 in CFB hold serve (although Bama escapes on the last play vs. A&M) while upsets abound in the NFL-Colts beat Broncos, Giants beat Packers in London, Texans beat Jags in Jax, Jets beat Dolphins, and Cowboys beat Rams plus Phillies and Mariners deliver upsets in MLB playoffs.

Bri makes his college football Week 6 and NFL week 5 predictions then the guys talk the final MLB season standings and the greatness of this year's LA Dodgers, Aaron Judge and Albert Pujols.

The guys review Week 4 in the NFL (Bengals win, Packers escape and Jags lose in a downpour). They discuss the parity in the league-only 1 team without a win and only 1 unbeaten after 4 weeks and review the latest power rankings top 8.

Bri talks Hurricane Ian; Mike talks his great trip to Normandy, France and then the guys review week 5 in College Football-UCLA, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, TCU, Purdue and Georgia Tech with big upsets and the Badgers fire Paul Chryst.

Bri likes Clemson, Tennessee, Arkansas and Dad's Wildcats (over Mom's Redhawks) to win on Saturday; Bri is still down on his Bengals (could they really lose to the Jets?); Bills, Chiefs, Eagles and Bucs look like the 4 best teams in the NFL; How many HR's will Judge hit and where will he play next season?

Jags shutout Colts in Jax; Lions beat Commanders; Packers beat Bears on Sunday night; Bengals lose to Cowboys (Bri is VERY UNHAPPY); Great comebacks by Cardinals, Dolphins, and Jets.

Chiefs nip Chargers on Thursday night; Florida State starts 3-0 for the first time since 2015; Most of the major college teams dominated but #11 Michigan State, #12 BYU and #13 Miami all lost and Brian is furious with his Cincinnati Bengals.

Shout out to the retiring Rodger Federer then Bri makes his CFB and NFL predictions (Bengals and Packers should win, Jags?) then the guys talk baseball (Dodgers on track to win 112 games, Brewers 2 games back in the wild card, Wainwright and Molina set a record and will Judge break the Yankee HR record?)

The guys review week 1 in the NFL-Not a good week for our favorite teams (Bengals, Jags and Packers all fall); plus we review a number of upsets (Bears beat 49ers, Giants beat Titans, and Seahawks beat Broncos.)

College football Week 2 review (#1 Alabama barely survives vs. Texas while Texas A&M, Notre Dame, Baylor, Florida, Pitt, Wisconsin and Houston all lose and Nebraska fires Scott Frost.)

Bri makes his picks for NFL Week 1 (Lions upset Eagles, Jags upset Commanders and Vikings upset Packers) then he makes his Super Bowl prediction (Bengals over Rams) and picks the best Week 2 CFB games  (BYU upsets Baylor and Tennessee upsets Pitt).

Dustin Johnson wins the LIV golf event in Boston does anyone care?; FSU nips LSU 24-23 with a blocked extra point with no time left in Brian Kelly's LSU debut; MLB Standings review (Braves within 1 game of Mets) and storylines (Aaron Judge on paced for 66 HR's for Yanks and Albert Pujols hit career HR #695 yesterday-will pass A Rod for #4 all time, can he get to 700?)

College football moves to a 12 team playoff; Donovan Mitchell gets traded to a good, young Cavs team; CFB Week 1-Iowa can't score, UNC can't defend, Gators upset Utes, Ohio State muscles Note Dame while Georgia rolls Oregon and finally Bri and the experts disagree on the Saints and Dolphins.

MLB Standings review (Cardinals are 21-6 in August, Brewers best playoff chance is now a wild card); CFB Week 1 predictions (UC vs. Arkansas is the best game, Bri thinks the Buckeyes will handle the Irish handily); NFL news (Jimmy G to stay with 49ers this season) and NBA (Gobert trade impact continues-first KD now Mitchell are priced out of the trade market).

The Bibby's come on for their 6th visit to the podcast to preview the 2022 Packers.  We discuss: Last year's heartbreaking playoff  loss to the 49ers; A controversial draft (no WR in round 1); The roster breakdown (Bri thinks the Packers have a top 2 Defense but the WR room is iffy) and then Kate makes her win/loss prediction (she's bullish-another 13-4 season).

NU Wildcats beat the Cornhuskers in Ireland to kick off CFB; Rory wins the Tour Championship (and $18MM) in Atlanta; Cam Smith, Mark Leishmann, Anirban Lahiri and Harold Varner leave for the Saudi sponsored LIV Golf Tour and the top PGA Tour pros agree to play in 20 events each year (The Players, the 4 Majors, 12 elevated events and three others of their choosing.)
