I guess that is why Brandon Walker got so popular on Barstool, he's just a complete a-hole but a Southern one.


Walker is kinda funny though. And I think he actually knows the sport.

Eta: not saying he knows the xs and os of the game but he follows the sport year round and has an idea what’s going on.

I know it's not just me who thinks Dave Portnoy is a giant douchebag.

Big Ev


The dude is awful but I feel bad for him. I’d be shocked if he makes it to 40

I've yet to meet anyone in person that loves college football and chooses Big Noon Kickoff over GameDay. Hate ESPN all you want, but they hit gold getting Saban on there.


Before replacing Bush with Ingram, it was the better show. Then they brought in the douche who sucks the air out of the room with sad stories

ESPN gameday is an absolute shite tv program

Dave knows zero about CFB and is old now.

Big Cat would have been the better choice here. Much less baggage too

Portnoy is so annoying especially after his Jewsih meltdown

Didn’t Ingram lay a fan out on tv recently?

He’s just another version of Desmond Howard

I'm not trying to be mean that Portnoy is a Michigan guy through and through, but what expertise does he have to be on a CFB show?


He has been pretty succesful with Barstool's own college football show that they have been bringing on the road a few times a year with Kayce Smith, Brandon Walker, and Big Cat.

At least UNR is adding T-Bob


Not sure why you got downvoted, but T-Bob will bring more to the table for Unnecessary Roughness than Big Ev or Kayce.

Kayce is there to keep show moving, but T-Bob can talk college football a whole lot better than Big Ev.

Well this will certainly be awful on the Big Noon kickoff and barstool content these days belongs nowhere near real TV

Absolutely. He brings actual football knowledge to the show which is what that show been lacking.

You think including Mcaffee disingenuous? That’s a really dumb take man. He has been an NFL all pro and has been in nfl locker rooms for a decade +. He has forgotten more about football than Portnoy will ever know.

Barstool fans are the sports equivalent of Howard Stern fans.

I just read an interview with Samantha Ponder, how she was fired for speaking out about Lia Thomas and that dude/woman boxer person in the Olympics. It made me realize something...

ESPN's hold on the sports reporting world is in play.

You either love or hate Brandon Walker. He’s grown on me the last few years. He’s a smug arse hole that can’t take criticism and blocks a ton of people on twitter but I enjoy his takes on CFB. He’s knowledgeable like you said and follows the sport year round.

Big Ev is pretty useless. He fits right in with the New York office. Brings nothing to the table. T Bob and BFW will be a great combo on UNR
