Jim Granger
go back from where you come!
This is it! the detailed analysis of the Game with Booger and the Brazen Cheaters
now that the gopherturds have been squashed, we will look to wipe our shoes on the meshitagain wolverines
LOL @ michigan
LOL @ jimbo fisher
LOL @ anyone who doesn't think Bama should be in the top 4
Reaction to the 2nd CFP rankings of the year - Here is the Bombast Top 6 -
1) Ohio State
2) scUM
3) Washington
4) Florida State
5) Georgia
6) Texas
This episode is so flippin spooky, scary that it got stuck in a vortex for two before it could be published
We were able to set up an exclusive interview with one of the "Scouts" who was paid my Michigan to steal signs from potential opponents. You are NOT going to want to miss this!
From James Franklin's giant hat to adorable michigan's spike the sign stealer. From the funk in the Carolina's to the fun of the fumbling men of Troy. We give you the fresh wintergreen wisdom of Buckeye Bombast!
"Have you seen anyone else along this beach?" "No, Just me and the moron twins."
Now that the pool paradise is closed, we take a Splash into how things have gone with our first half predictions.
A florid analysis of the scarlet domination that overwhelmed the dreary purduda burmuda.
In this gem, you have the privilege of consuming the first Bombast Playoff Rankings of the 2023 season. They are even whackier than you could possibly imagine.
There is most certainly a vortex in West Lafayette. After the tussle with the terribly tenacious terrapins, the exceedingly righteous bucks look to not be overtaken by the Purduda Bermuda.
One must understand that this is quite an extraordinary episode with so many twists and turns. All at a firepowery pace.
Holtz - I think that is an extremely robust (think colon-blow) beer that was consumed by soviet-era East German women
and, as is always the case, much more stuff that is just too flippin' exciting to put into words. This is grandiose baby!
Youngstown State? In addition to wondering about the lackluster performance against and FCS team, we also delve into the controversial stuff....as in...time for Ohio State to part with their defensive line coach.
Probably asking...can we rely upon more episodes?
Yes. We actually have a backlog back to last season. Due to multiple factors, they have yet to be published. We will publish them as time capsules for anyone who strangely has time and desire to listen (a person who likes to peel back their toenails and pour alcohol on top?). It's probably tempting. Almost like taking a metal detector to the beach in hopes that one will find gold. There are definitely some nuggets out there.
Anywho, good to be back. How the heck are ya?!
From now on, any announcer or replay analyst that utters the moronic paraphrase of "targeting is for the safety of the players", should be publicly tarred and feathered.
Thoughts on early signing day and thoughts on the Horned Frogs against the team up north
We know you'll want to learn what happened during the mysterious conversational hiatus period. Likely did not involve any OSU running backs... I want to say it had nothing to do with a harbaugh sleep-over at a kicker's house. however, there is a mystery surrounding Ohio State taking a kicker from the transfer portal. Or, maybe there isn't. Maybe it's made up. Maybe it's not. Maybe I am making it right now. You may want to do a quick search on them-there-internets to see what the mystery is about and if it did, indeed involve a sleep-over.
At any rate, we have a handful in the category of Conversational Hiatus Recovery. We may throw a quick story together to describe what happened during this period.
As the boy says, this is what you've all been waiting for.....of course, you're probably waiting for the mysterious missing episodes. Well, Santa stole them. He was going to give them away. Gave him a well-crafted bread pudding....gained his trust. I think we may get those published soon.
in the noble words of the cyclops in oh brother where art thou. we thank you for the conversational hy-A-tus. but xichigan still sucks and harbaugh still enjoys bareback squat rack limbo while on the placekicker recruiting trail
Prior to the CF(SEC)P Rankings, I enhanced my ranking model and came up with the "real" rankings. Don't worry TCU, I got your back...
Was there anything more spectacular that JTT and his performance against Penn State? In other news, studies have linked nose-picking (Harbaugh) to dementia and alzheimers.
Nothing says french like "Latrine"

We think that the terrible out-of-conference opponents from a michigan schedule should have to then face off in a round robin. The winner, of course, would get the toilet bowl trophy... with the maize dew of the football gods.
What happens when you give b-vitamins to the football gods? Well, it looks a lot like the big out house in ann arbor this past Saturday.
In part 1 we sift through the Sooners favored by 9 over Kansas and other pretzel logic. Plus, we have convinced ourselves that, when it comes to picking against the spread, we ain't all that bad.
The boy is on a season log quest of redemption.....guess he'll have to try again in Week 7
"Coach Harsin, what are your plans for this evening?" "Well, there's a great #$%@ film tonight on skinemax". "And that's how you'd like to live your life? pretty much?"
Some of the top matchups for Week Six plus.....what the heck is Wisconsin doing, for Chryst sakes?!
It doesn't really matter that a mediocre Arkansas team took you to the 4th quarter. And that you almost lost to a mediocre Texas team. You're Alabama. We got your back.
What idiot thinks that Kentucky has no business ranked in the top 10? The same idiot that has now ranked them.......number 3
What idiot thought the Oklahoma and USC spreads were too low? The same idiot that says don't listen to us if you're putting money on the line.
You know it to be true. The only reason the SEC looks "dominant" is due to the media ranking teams from the conference artificially high based on little merit....so, when they beat each other in games that are, quite frankly, unwatchable....
If you're in the Cincinnati area and have need of appliance repair....George's Appliances. Oh and, uh, michigan still sucks
Thoroughly thrilled with the press his team has received in dominating the worst teams in college football, harbaugh has gone on a tour of the lesser high schools in michigan in order to maintain the positive momentum. Of course, he will need to take a break now and then to "rip off his blouse" and dominate the squat rack.
Wow, those bugeaters are a special class of stupid. I remember thinking Trev Alberts was a doofus when he was attempting to do sports talk. As an AD? Well, I just know that if I went into an interview and I talked about how I wasted $7.5mm in university funds unnecessarily....
This completes the 'Redemption From' series as the boy feverishly dazzles us with his picks from the lesser games
I'm not even really sure what "Redemption From" means. But, the boy said so we'll run with it. I think it means that he is going to totally redeem himself after a miserable first week of picks. the only thing I have to say is God save the king!
The College Football season starts off with a bang! Allow yourself to be mesmerized by our deeply wise reactions.
The boy and I kick off our pick competition for the 2022 Season. This is part one of two....and its a mollywhomping' good time!
They are playing for all the golden marbles. Yeah, neither of these teams are Baylor or Pitt, so it's not like this has any bearing on the playoffs or anything. But, we still think it could be a serviceable game.
No, I did not get the title wrong. this is an incredibly weak slate of games. For exhibitions, Europe gives us Manchester United. We give them...Nebraska and Northwestern
You will be dazzled by this episode...right up to the point where you realize we don't even know to what conference these teams belong. But we are still masters of our dominion...er....domain
'N-e-s-t-l-e-s, Nestles makes the very best....chocolate'.....or do they? What about Hershey? Godiva? Is the SEC West, really the best? this year? Probably
Join us in our merriment as we laugh at the Kentucky Wildcats. We will also laugh Vanderbilt. some mild laughter for Mizzou and South Carolina. But hey! Its the SEC! SEC! SEC!
The boy and I ride the Cristobal Hype Train

We preview the ACC Atlantic. Wake or Wolfpack? Or maybe be Clemson's back? Who will battle the cuse, with the bottom-dweller blues?
The boy and I delve into the circumstances of the Big 12 and regale you all with some wonderful bombast.
Will the Utes be the Pac12 brutes? Or, will Oklahoma west turn out to be the best? The Ducks might say...."hey, got any grapes?"....and then most likely....waddle away
Land of Confusion part 1:
By my reckoning, we recently posted the 9th episode of this, our 4th season. That is why I am now posting the 3rd episode of this, our 4th season. To further confound, we recorded this episode during the first round of the NFL draft.....and....at the same time with our Post Spring / Draft episode...neither of which have I posted. Might post them later. Will have to go sift through the up-side-down.
As I post this, I find myself craving crab cakes...as well as College Football! We are getting close, my friends. So, each week, as we head into the season, we'll be making our conference and national predictions. We start this journey with the Ohio State division....I mean, lets face it, they pretty much own the B1G East.
Be sure to check out our poll and let us know your prediction!
I've quoted it before and will do it here again. Rush - "changes aren't permanent, but change is". We've been AWOL for a time. No need to worry. You will notice that this is bizarrely labeled episode 8 of Season 4. That is of course because we have recorded 7 other episodes and I have been too lazy (or otherwise occupied) to upload them. Fear not. We sate you here with our initial USC/UCLA reactions. As these reactions cause you to peak in a frenzy, I will post those long lost episodes
Our theoretical last episode of the 2021 College Football season. Celebrate with Donald Fagen's Nightfly (I mean, why not?). You know what happens. You read the book....
But this is not the goodbye look. We leave you with a wink of anticipation. Anticipation of more Buckeye Bombast with Belhaven and the Boy.

Shortly after michigan's marbles were scattered all over the Orange Bowl field, the Righteous Bucks were winning all the Roses.
Always good to reference Iron Maiden when talking about the playoff games and the Rose Bowl.
With the somewhat predictable conference championships complete, what can we expect from playoffs? Bowl Season?
In this episode, the boy and I talk about the conference championship games as if we care.

The stink of the defense never really went away during the course of the season. This allowed the blind squirrels to maneuver based on scent. As such, they were able to find the acorns....er...marbles.
We speak with Spencer Fox from Western Xichigan and ask him for his views of the WLOLverines. What should we expect? What are the keys to the game? Did you see Harbaugh pick his nose?
and the boy waxing poetic on his final regular season picks. Also, I use the word "milieu" in this episode. Nothing says legit like the word "milieu"
As Jim Harbaugh seeks to recapture his lost marbles, we investigate what kind of jedi-mind tricks he has up his....er...nose....that he likes to pick in front of a national audience.
From Texas' historic losing streak to Florida losing in OT to Mizzou, there is much to LOL about from Week 12. Mirth and Merriment abound as we head into holiday season (aka The Game week).

Nor can we make up Kansas beating Texas. Definite LOL.....with a bunch of rolling bald-headed, laughing out loud emoji's....with SEC tattoos...of dancing oompa-loompa jimbo fishers.
Seriously, at this point, they are just messing with right? It's really just one big joke, isn't it? Oregon, with an abysmal loss, is in the top four because they absolutely have to double-down on "Head-2-head matters" But 6-3 Penn State is not ranked while 6-3 Auburn/Wisconsin ranked because....?

If you're looking to take your partner to a quaint, safe spot for a picnic, look no further than in the middle of the Ohio State zone. You'll be able to spend a stress free afternoon of fun and frolic.
Due to technical difficulties, this one is late to press. Makes some of the predictions even more amusing.
If you want cringe-worthy, this episode is it. I try to pontificate about my objective spreadsheet (for ranking the CFP). Felt pretty good at the time. When I listen to it however....well....cringe-worthy.
Ohio State wins, michigan loses. Super! Super!

WARNING - We mention the word Mathematics in this episode.
I know. I know. When you were browsing the catalog and selected Buckeye Bombast, no one told you there would be any math. We try to dummy it down. We only say the word 3 times, I believe. So, if you can get beyond that (and the random stroll through the way back machine with mention of Steve Bellisari) then you're gonna love this one a crap-ton.
I know we are only about .500 for the year for our picks. However, you know there are people getting paid money for worse.

After a sound pummeling of the Scarlet Knights, we turn our attention to a far more menacing creature....the Terrapin. This link will tell you all you need to know about the Maryland Mascot (https://umterps.com/sports/2018/6/7/school-mascot.aspx). However, I still wonder how that conversation went. "I think 'Old Liners' is just not quite menacing enough. I am thinking we need something that strikes fear! Like a Terrapin." "What's a terrapin?" "Strike this man and remove him from my presence! 'What's a terrapin??? I mean come on! Work with me! It's a turtle dagnabbit! A very sinister and menacing turtle. Opposing teams will soil themselves."
who'da thought that Rutgers would be a good gauge on defensive improvements. We also talk hog and dogs, meatchicken and the sausage fest, and we throw in some Irish lucky charms

Its a preview of the upcoming game with the Oregon Ducks. Additionally, you get to hear us say really dumb things (we call it bombast). However, there are some gold nuggets in here if you really know where to look.
The boy and I face off again this year with our weekly picks. If you're a gambler.....may want to seek advice elsewhere. But, at least listen to the show anyway because it is, like, good and stuff.
The boy and I regale you with our extremely insightful preview of the Ohio State / Gophere matchup. It will be as palatable as the last thing your dog decided to lick up off of the floor.

Why Ohio State shouldn't be in the Playoffs - by Jimbo Fisher, Dabo Swinney, and Brian Kelly
Jimbo: "Ohio State shouldn't be in the playoffs because they only played six games
"and Texas A&M played nine games."
Brian: Wow, that's great.
Jimbo: "I think that everybody should play at least nine games.
"That is a good number of games for the playoffs.
"I don't think that a team that only plays six games should be in the playoffs."
Dabo - Oh, rarely had the words poured from your penny pencil...
with such feverish fluidity.

Welcome to Jimbo Fisher and Dabo Swinney's college football, where losing to good teams is preferred over victories...where playing more games against mediocre/bad competition is more admirable.....more noble....than staying undefeated and winning against ranked teams.

uttered by the smooth, disarming, and dulcet voice of Ed Orgeron. However, his voice is so weak and fragile, that it could not be heard over the whining cries of Dabo and Mullen as the lay prostrate on the floor, pounding their fists and screaming "but, but, but, we played more games than that undefeated team from the Big 10!"

"Listen, I know that Ohio State gets all the fancy ladies, the clothes, the free creams and lotions, but Indiana's life is good: reeeaally good.

When Barry Alvarez was asked about how the discussions were going with the Big Ten regarding Ohio State potentially not having enough games to qualify for the Big Ten championship game, his response pretty much sums up the moronic and lethargic lack of leadership in the conference...."We haven't those discussions yet." Really??? Everyone else has been talking about it for a few weeks and you dorks haven't thought about maybe throwing together a quick Zoom call on it?

No big surprise with the CFP rankings. To quote Dr. Evil, "quite standard, really". Put Bama at number 1, snuggle a couple more SEC teams close to the top 4, take another undeserving SEC team or two & nestle them nicely around the top ten, throw a couple more SEC teams in the 25....and then throw some darts.

Ohio State beat a top 10 team. They are undefeated and will likely be in the top 4 of the first CFP ranking of 2020. Yes, we are telling ourselves this in order to feel better about Ohio State's defensive secondary making the unit from 2018 hold its beer. However, there was more from this weekend to take away the sting of the porous Buckeye defense.....the university of Malaise needing triple-OT to hold off Rutgers. That is a genuine comedy right there.

annnnnd......slipping slightly off schedule, it is our Ohio State vs. Indiana breakdown. Also, if you want to know the fundamental difference between competent and incompetent put in a "tape" of Ohio State's offense and then follow that up with the same for *ichigan.

That's right, the Big 12 has gone all Randy Parker with their overall disdain for the fineries of defense. The only thing worse than a Big 12 defense is the ability of your hosts to make successful picks. But hey! The sound quality is marginally better!

This could be like, you know, one of the best episodes ever? Well, we think its purty-good. But the sound kinda blows. So, we are going to lie a little bit....really just to put you in the right mind-set. We went down to the deep south to put this one together and had to battle the elements. That is why the sound is, as stated on Beavis and Butthead....Raw and Vital. Besides, in this one episode you not only get Guitars and Pickup Trucks, you get some stellar Victor Hugo references.

The boy and I commiserate over our deplorable predictions. We also continue our bombast regarding the Big 10 leaving no room for error with their "triumphant" return to football. As the incomparable Nacho Libre once said, "when you are a man, sometimes you wear stretchy pants...in your room. Is for fun."

October 24 kinda feels like John's reluctant signing of the Magna Carta. Alas! who are we to question to regal benevolence of the Big 10 administrators?!?

The wicked rumors....as I publish this there are mysterious Big 10 forces supposedly (no....not supposubly) preparing to meet in order to.....cast votes!
This episode may have actually gone negative-budget if that's possible. But we have faith you'll get over our poor decision on a make-shift recording space. Besides, we brought in a bit of Monty Python for good measure.
Enjoy!

This was recorded on Aug 29, 2020 just after the announcement that the Big 10 is considering a Thanksgiving start. Oh Big 10! You are so benevolent! We, the unwashed masses, will consider our bounty as we bow in thanksgiving to your eminent wisdom! Or.......not.
Thanks to all the new listeners! It is humbling and frightening to know there are so many out there who are listening to our somewhat gauche dribble. But....let's be honest...its because you did a search on boobs, isn't it? ;-)

In 2002, the boy and I went to see Ohio State take on Washington State. Pre-game, outside the Schott, there was an inflatable goal-post. I kicked a perfect field-goal through it. Harbaugh has had his eye on me ever since. He came over before the recording of this episode. He wanted to see if I had any eligibility and......he wanted to spend the night....heard we were having a special outdoor man-cave episode in front of the fireplace. Thought there might be smores. We punched him in the gut and threw his cleats in the nearby creek.
This episode was recorded the day after the Big 10 Boobs announced they were canceling football. It has the requisite amount of Bombast.

This episode was recorded just after the Big 10 announcement of the 10 game, conference-only schedule. Will they really have the season? Predictions for, you know, just in case. Plus, how much of a complete tool is Jim Harbaugh? Pure _ichigan.

In the wake of the cancelation of March Madness and the realization that Spring football was done as well, this is a bombastic look at what might lie ahead.

This episode begins with the first portion of the Playoff Loss Reaction. When we put that together in the week after the loss to Clemson, we discovered that much of the audio was corrupted. We salvaged the first piece and have concatenated with our Pre-spring Podcast.
Although much time has elapsed, it is interesting to listen to these in the lead up to Covid and to where we are now. Who knew?

Merry Christmas! You'll have to forgive the boy. He is recovering from a cold and what not. His voice is a bit off. However, it doesn't stop him from giving his bowl confidence picks! The boy and I are squaring off in our Bowl predictions. You not only get our picks but you get to learn about the "SEC pivot"!

We agree that the Righteous Bucks got screwed out of #1. I regale the boy with another epic SEC rant. We discuss the merits (or lack thereof?) of Georgia at number 5. And....are Clemson fans scared of their playoff matchup? You bet!

The boy and I have descended upon the "forward-focused" metropolis of Kansas, Ohio for our first "in-person" broadcast. We preview the big game between Ohio State and the wLOLverweenies. We discuss our predicted outcomes as well as the potential aftermath for each team, should they lose.
The boy and I make fun of the pathetic SEC (Bus Stop Bullies). They have further bolstered there out of conference record by feasting on FCS teams....way to go SEC (eye roll)! We also wax poetic about the outcomes of the week 13 games.
Although the righteous Bucks are ranked #1 in the latest poll, we still take issue with some inconsistencies in the Committee's list. In addition, we give our thoughts on the "rivalry week" matchups.
In addition to our preview of the key week 13 matchups, the boy and I introduce the "Salieri" Trophy for the winner of the ACC Coastal Division. And....How do Gary Patterson's trouser issues correlate to team performance?...AND....the SEC - The bus stop bullies.
Over a smooth Belhaven (or 3), the boy and I discuss the inconsistencies of the playoff committee. We then discuss the upcoming game with Penn State and give our "analysis" and predictions.
The boy and I give our reactions to week 12 action and set the stage for the upcoming breakdown of the College Football Rankings.

Listen as we cover a data-driven analysis that illustrates the deficiencies in the Football ranking committee's latest rankings. We argue that the committee fails at its base - that the SEC is the strongest conference in the 2019 season. Our data shows that the SEC is actually the 3rd strongest of the Power 5 conferences. By adjusting accordingly and using a point driven system that is centered on conference strength, we give our own Playoff rankings.
