Ohio State (FOX) bans Dave Portnoy from Big Noon Kickoff Aug 26, 2025

Show notes

Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, a loud and proud Michigan fan, was brought on by Fox for its Big Noon Kickoff show ahead of Ohio State’s season opener against Texas. But while the show will broadcast live from Columbus, Ohio State denied Portnoy access to the stadium, aiming to keep the rivalry-fueled drama off the field—even if it’s still loud on TV.

Everything is still April Fool’s Day in life as seen by another recent example about a not real car accident at Clemson / Shut Up Sipple (sponsored by Bagels & Joe) Aug 26, 2025

Show notes

Message boards used to be the main place people posted rumors on before the boom of social media—and as we’ve pointed out, the growth and development of AI across the world makes it even more difficult to know what is real and what isn’t

This leads us back to message boards, when someone on a popular Clemson fan site said that Cade Klubnik was involved in a bad car accident and couldn’t use his shoulder…which was completely false and not true, as his mom had to be told and informed

John Butler spoke with media yesterday as well as a few defensive players…what’s the confidence of the group in stopping Brendan Sorsby and company on Thursday? Aug 26, 2025

Show notes

Nebraska’s DC said Sorsby is an athletic QB and a good runner and that it will be a task to stop him…he also mentioned that in what he saw in Week 0 games was poor tackling across the 5 games of college football…does anyone tackle great in Game 1?

Butler also mentioned they’ll keep the Blackshirts at 11 players (and maybe 12), but he’ll let Matt Rhule handle that…

Keeping up with the Sanders! Aug 25, 2025

Show notes

With Shilo Sanders getting waived yesterday and Sheduer not playing how some people wanted, what does the Stool have to say about it all?

Numbers retired, bowl game loss, it seems like everything from here on out is going to magnified for the Sanders family more than we thought possible.

A quick look at the last weekend of NFL preseason football shows a napping Micah Parsons and punch-throwing Shilo Sanders / Shut Up Sipple (sponsored by Bagels & Joe) Aug 25, 2025

Show notes

The cuts are coming today and the next few days in the NFL as rosters go from 90 players down to 53 for the regular season, and Shilo Sanders made one of those cuts easy for the Bucs after throwing a punch against the Bills and getting ejected from the game…he’d been battling for the 4th and final safety spot on the roster after being undrafted

Also, as Micah Parsons waits for a new contract, he was seen at the Cowboys’ final preseason game—napping on the sidelines!
