Husker football game week has arrived---and the lead story is about a player of their future, Trae Taylor, who ran 24 times in a win over Millard North Aug 31, 2026

Show notes

-Sip was in attendance for Trae Taylor’s first appearance in high school football in Nebraska, a massive crowd that saw a late comeback

by Millard South to beat Millard North, 35-34. Taylor’s stats: 16/31, 344 yards, 3 TDs….but he ran the ball 24 times for 94 yards

-There seems to be some sort of communication difference in terms of if Nebraska coaches were upset about Taylor running it 24

times…regardless, that’s a lot of carries for any QB and especially in the first game of the season…so was there a convo with coaches?

Show notes

-Tua Tagovailoa gets the start tonight in Miami against the rebuilding Dolphins---a team he is by far and away the highest-paid player

on this year despite being on the Atlanta Falcons

-Both teams aren’t supposed to be very good this season, but it’ll be interesting to see the reception Tua gets from Dolphins fans…

TCU and North Carolina kick off the season tomorrow in Dublin, Ireland…will Bill Belichick’s redemption tour start with success? Aug 28, 2026

Show notes

-FBS football kicks off tomorrow with TCU/North Carolina at Aviva Stadium in Dublin—a place The Stool has all been—and the Horned

Frogs enter as a 9.5-point favorite vs. UNC, who have had another tumultuous offseason and Fall camp so far

-Do you ever wonder what a win for Nebraska vs. Northwestern in that game in 2022 could have done for the season? Instead, Scott

Frost was fired after a terrible loss at home to Georgia Southern and Erik Chinander soon after, in what would finish as a 4-8 season---

with a nice win vs. Iowa to end that season (thanks, Bill)
