MGoPodcast 6.7: Atomic Victory
[Bryan Fuller]
OFFENSE/VICTORY
We won, hurray! Stadium stuff, fan stuff, that kind of thing. The thing about family is you can't choose 'em, but I'm pretty sure yelling at the fans is going to help. Defense shut down. Hooray Gardner!
DEFENSE
That went quite well. Wither DTs, don't get on Countess, on Hackenberg turning into Gardner 2013.
WTF WAS THAT
Timeouts, offsides, obvious incompletions momentarily ruled touchdowns: chaos!
TALKING BIG TEN WITH JAMIEMAC
Our podcast's Devin Gardner returns; we talk Northwestern moving forward, a new favorite in OSU/MSU, and again talk about how it was nice to win.
MUSIC
"Across 110th Street"

Serious question: do returners always request their return music a la coming-up-to-bat music in baseball?
October 13th, 2014 at 4:34 PM ^
I don't know, but I would have 0 problem with it if they do. I couldn't imagine standing there with 11 large men sprinting toward me wanting nothing more than to tear my head off as I completely ignore them and stare at a football floating toward me. If the man wants some Atomic Dog to pump him up a bit...give the man some Atomic Dog.

How is it not cool?
Why is there any resistance to it?
A player shows some character and excitement and people don't think it's sweet. what's the deal?
October 13th, 2014 at 10:47 PM ^
I didn't mean to imply that I wouldn't like it. I would love it if that was the case!
October 14th, 2014 at 12:48 PM ^
They definitely don't always do it, because a lot of schools don't pipe in music between 3rd and 4th downs at all.

Nice photo of MMB (who did an excellent show).
October 14th, 2014 at 1:26 PM ^
Thank you! I often go into the media room to load photos during halftime, but wanted to catch this performance---glad I did, they did a really nice job!
October 13th, 2014 at 4:46 PM ^
that Atomic Dog is a single by George Clinton after he disbanded the group. Otherwise could you imagine the split in the fanbase between those who prefer Parliament and those who like the Funkadelics better?

The story about "The Futile Warrior" reminded me of something:
In the clearing stands a boxer,
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of ev'ry glove that laid him down
And cut him till he cried out
In his anger and his shame,
"I am leaving, I am leaving."
But the fighter still remains

Wow! I cant believe Ace and Bryan are talking about Michigan State vs Ohio? We haven't even played Michigan State yet. Granted they will be heavily favored against us in two weeks but are you guys just gonna roll over? Have you not learned that anything can happen in a rivalry game? Gee wiz...

or just fast forward to the 18th minute mark to watch one of the guys on Black Shoe Diaries struggle figuring out how far PSU would need to go if the onside kick recovery stood.

These guys want their offensive coordinator fired and are questioning Franklin's ability to run an offense.

Was it just my computer or was this podcast only about 25 minutes long?

LAST NIGHT IN TOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
October 14th, 2014 at 9:22 AM ^
I genuinely enjoy these
Thanks for doing them
October 14th, 2014 at 12:44 PM ^
Same here. Just wondering what happened to the hobo strangling this week
October 14th, 2014 at 10:34 AM ^
That's a photo to submit to a competition, Mr. Fuller. Spectacular capture.
October 14th, 2014 at 1:28 PM ^
Thank you so much LJ, I really appreciate the complement! It was really hard to shoot with barely any light and most of my photos during the performance turned out terribly haha, but I was pretty happy with this one!
October 15th, 2014 at 2:16 AM ^
I concur with LJ. That is a great photo. Was kind of shocked at how clear it turned out.

I also enjoy listening to these as a cathartic way to experience bad football seasons.
My favorite part however is Ace and Brian trying desperately to will the end of the Brandon/Hoke era into reality. Do we have any real evidence that these guys are getting fired? Aside from Brian asserting repeatedly that they will? Not that I'm not also sending the jettison-karma out into the universe, but I sometimes just get this sick feeling that Hoke will win one of the unwinnable games, Brandon will stay out of the spotlight for the rest of the year, and we will return the whole "Michigan Man" Brand pupu platter for 2015.
In which case...

I am glad that my attendance of this game makes me not a bad fan!
