SHUTDOWN FULLCAST 3.19: THIS WEEK WILL BE THE END OF US ALL

FOOTBALL, HORRIFYING UTILITY PIPE ACCIDENTS, WHY CATS ARE POLICE, AND OTHER SALIENT POINTS

The first completely competitive and interesting weekend of the college football season gets...well, it gets us starting off by talking about a man dying a horrible death in a New York utility tunnel. There is actual football, though, and we do discuss it.

Points covered include:

  • "We gotta shit on Texas, Spencer. Because there is a fresh reason to shit on Texas."
  • A proposal about Auburn struggling being a sign they will inevitably end up in the national title game
  • How Houston Nutt is orbiting the earth like Felix Baumgartner waiting for that call from a willing school as a signal to drop in and save Arkansas
  • More petty swipes at Will Muschamp (cut and paste from every week)
  • A painful recounting of the times each of us watched a game that left us so angry we wept blood (except for Jason, who is the Dr. Manhattan of college football)
  • Proposed: A campus full of yellow jackets would actually be a deeply uncomfortable place, and a campus of Brutus Buckeyes would be pretty much the same as Ohio State's campus right now
  • Why BYU is dirty as hell (and that's just fine)
  • Proposed: Sponsoring a Shutdown Fullcast bowl game
