    Drunk Dialing 1.11: Screw your curse

    On this week’s Drunk Dialing, Tami, Jared, Ted and Tom talk about the Cubs 2-0 start to the NLDS, the college football weekend that was, and the proper way to cut a pizza. As the calls come in, the hosts talk to the guests about their greatest drunken adventures, which lead to some pretty interesting […]

  • The end of Snyder?

    The end of Snyder?

    Everyone has that moment. That moment when you fall in love with someone or something. For K-State football, that moment for me was the 1995 Sunflower Showdown. I had just turned nine at the time, and my Grandpa, an alumnus of K-State when it was called Kansas State Agricultural College, decided he would take me […]

    This week in the Group of 5 – 10/4/16

    For goodness’ sake, College Football. You’re going to kill us all. We’re already dealing with the most stressful election year in recent memory so everyone is already on edge, and then you hand us a weekend where TEN RANKED TEAMS lose. There were stunning results all over the place. North Carolina took out Florida State […]

  • October should be your favorite month

    October is the best month. Other months are garbage compared to October. No month can even challenge October. March? Too cold (in most places). September? Too hot (in most places). November? The holiday season is a living nightmare and everyone knows it. July? Stop. October is where it’s at, and here’s why. Halloween, duh. The […]

    This week in the Group of 5 – 9/27/16

    Things progressed nicely in week four. Two more teams were dropped from the AP top 25 – Georgia got crushed by Ole Miss, and LSU lost by less than a TD to Auburn (but it was enough to get Les Miles fired). While, no, last weekend wasn’t one of insane underdog victories all over the […]

    Drunk Dialing 1.09: Nobody wants to be the shirtless Tennessee fan

    Ted is joined by Jared Leeper and Tami Dooley as they break down another awesome day of college football. Everyone’s favorite teams won, so there’s nothing but happy callers this week. Way better than some depressing calls last week. They also get into the best place they have ever had a beer, as well as how it […]

  • The realist vs. the loyalist

    I had my little, Herky-heart broken last Saturday in the loss to NDSU at Kinnick. Coming off an exciting 2015 season, the Hawks appeared to have their arrows all pointed in the right direction for the first time since 2009. With key players on both sides of the ball back, Iowa seemed to have genuine […]

    This week in the Group of 5 – 9/20/16

    College football was ridiculous fun last weekend, wasn’t it? There were surprising results all over the place, with Louisville cementing their place at the top of the polls with a dominant performance against Florida State that saw the #2 team in the country going down by 43 points, Houston finally finding a way to end […]

    Sticking up for the refs

    Author’s note: For this article I will be speaking in regards to college football , but the same message applies in all sports. Refs get a bad rap. Every sports fan here can probably remember a game when they felt their favorite team was slighted by a bad call. A bad call so erroneous that […]
