Then, Andrew Luck is BACK, Stugotz has an idea for selecting the 12th team in the 12-team College Football Playoff, and Ryan Day was seemingly more bothered by Michigan planting a flag than people calling for his job.

Hey, people, tell us what in the sport made you laugh hardest this weekend. In this segment, we call what made you laugh this weekend.
Exciting. Wow. It's been a minute since we did this. Let's go around the room. Mike Ryan, what do you believe was the funniest thing from the sports weekend? A lot of people would say your tears.
I'm sorry they feel that way about me. I think I've been pretty rational about this one. I'm giving them their tears. But for me, the funniest thing of the sports weekend was just I was screaming at the TV like a lot of people were at that final drive from the Chicago Bears that caused Eberflues. We then afterwards said, no, we executed. That's kind of how it was. It was designed. That was crazy.
They went 33 seconds in between plays. They had a shot at a field goal at the very least. They could have ran three plays, but they ran one. They lost. It was really dumb, and it cost them his job.
literally that press conference like they could have just not let him talk and just fired him but they're like go ahead do your press conference he did the morning press conference they fired him after lunch you're fired is that a man that knows i'm getting fired i just want to give you absolutely nothing on the way out like i will not even give you the satisfaction of acknowledging that i messed up the play calling at the end of the game like i know i'm done and you're not getting that you can have my job but you're not taking my dignity
I don't know how to describe it, but when I saw the blurb, the Chicago Bears have hired Matt Eberflus, I knew how it was going to end. There's no scenario. Just based on name. I'm sorry, and I don't know what I'm doing there. No, it's the name.
It's Eberflus. There's just no way this guy ends up being a success. You've got to change it. You've got to change it. You can't imagine Bill Belichick's record on someone named Eberflus.
There's just no way. I saw that blurb. I'm like, oh, he's going to get fired inside a couple of seasons. This is a disaster. Look at that name.

Chapter 5: What was the significance of Iowa's win over Nebraska?
The tequila that invented tequila.
Cuervo.
Do you know this one friend who just comes out of bed in the morning and then doesn't come out of his grin? Who is even in front of the first coffee, shamelessly well-groomed, and radiates the morning sun around the bed? Terrible. Disgusting. How can you just...

Chapter 6: What are the implications of NIL on college football coaching?
People should pay their dues. Nah, Andrew Luck, it's fun. He'll say something crazy. It's good for us.
Yeah, that's all that matters. Really?
Who cares how Stanford football goes, right? I mean, I think that's really the bottom line here. No one cares if they win or lose as long as we get Andrew Luck back.
During the break, Stugatz, who was saying it's good for us, runs everything through the prism of what's good for me. And during the break, he actually had a good idea, which is that the 12th team in the playoffs should be chosen by a randomly selected committee of just fans and the team they want to see in. The 12th team.
That the committee chooses the first 11, but a group of 30 just randomly selected fans decide who they want to see in the 12th spot.
Now, I think a lot of people would say Miami this year. I would go Colorado. Florida State. This is a treat. Florida State. Wow.
Bodie McBoatface.
Let him in, finally. Wow.
Lucy, what was the funniest thing from the sports weekend?

Chapter 7: What is the idea for selecting the 12th team in the College Football Playoff?
On the fairway?
Yeah, well, just because I don't know how to hit the correct wedges and anything like that. The putter I can hit, I can always hit the putter. That is crazy. That's a crazy amount of distance to be able to do that.
I have played par threes that are shorter than that. We all have, if anyone's played golf. It'd be funny to see you go to a par three with a putter. Mike did it with a driver. I mean, he stuck it within five inches of the hole. I got four inches to go. I mean...
My funniest thing of the sports weekend, because I did have a smile on my face for four days about what I am now claiming is in contention for the funniest joke that this show has ever told in 20 years.
Hmm.
The idea that Stugatz has not read his own bestselling book is funny enough.
Mm hmm.
The idea that Random House didn't get the audio version of that book, unlike it has with every other author it has ever asked to do that, even though it was paying Stugatz to read his own book, and he still hasn't read his own book? And it's a bestseller. We cannot do better than that as a joke.
Stugatzbook.com is where you go if you want to get your significant other a funny gift for the holidays. And on Thursday, Stugatz, who is too big for a bookstore... Bookstores are outdated.
