Oh, could this vintage store be any cuter? Right? And the best part? They accept Discover. Accept Discover? In a little place like this? I don't think so, Jennifer. Oh yeah, huh? Discover's accepted where I like to shop. Come on, baby, get with the times. Right, so we shouldn't get the parachute pants? You're making a comeback. I think.
Discover is accepted at 99% of places that take credit cards nationwide. Based on the February 2025 Nielsen Report.
On today's part of my take, presented by DraftKings, we're back in studio. The whole crew's here. We got college football quarterfinals recap. Incredible last game that we just watched, Ole Miss versus Georgia. A couple other games weren't as exciting, but we're going to talk about all of them. We have the semifinals set. We're going to do our Week 18 picks and preview. We have Hank and Zach back. We are also going to do our exit interview with Jerry O'Connell on our fantasy season. Maybe a little contentious. Runners up. Runners up. So we finished second. We want to just talk it out with Jerry, see what we can do better, what we can maybe give him to make it a better experience next year. And then we're going to finish with Firefest.
And that's it. It's going to be a great Friday show. And then we'll be back to three times a week next week. Thy ticket, Lady Jennifer of Coolidge.
Well, many thanks, good sir. Heareth my discover card. They accept Discover at Renaissance Fairs? Yeah, they do here.
What are the key highlights from the college football quarterfinals?
Discover is accepted at the places that I love to shop. Get it? With the times. With the times? You're playing the lute. Yeah, and it sounds pretty good, right?
Discover is accepted at 99% of places that take credit cards nationwide. Based on the February 2025 Nielsen Report. Okay, let's go.
Hey! Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
What are the Week 18 NFL picks and previews?
Welcome to part of my take presented by DraftKings. The crown is yours. Today is Friday, January 2nd. Happy New Year's, guys. Happy New Year. Happy New Year. Happy 2026. And let me just say, to start 2026, if you are a regular fan of college football, let's say 95% of us out there that don't root for the Blue Bloods, Let's call us haters. What a start to the new year. Because we watched in 24 hours Ohio State, Alabama, and Georgia all lose. The Red Bloods. Yeah. And I think, if memory serves, since we've gone to the 14 playoff and now to the 12-team playoff, I think this might be the first year where none of those teams are in the Final Four. So, yeah, we got all new colors. Yeah, we got Oregon versus Indiana in one side of the bracket, Ole Miss versus Miami in the other side.
Joe Klatt's probably going to feel a little stupid right now because Miami, incredible. Let's start with that one, Miami. just absolutely manned up Ohio State on New Year's Eve. It was shocking, but also not shocking because Miami had this in them, but in the fact that Ohio State just looked like they got bullied the entire time. The Julian Sane pick six obviously tilted the game, but my big takeaway from this game was not only obviously Miami can win the national title, but this felt like Mario Cristobal, like he coached a perfect game, And even in that last drive that Miami had where you're like, are they going to get too conservative when they're up three? Are they, you know, six minutes left?
No, no. There was a perfect drive, perfect use of the clock, absolutely big boydom. And Ohio State, listen, hand up. Sometimes you get it wrong. This Ohio State, not better than last year's Ohio State. Officially, yeah. Well, they did beat Michigan. They did. Which last year's Ohio State team did not. But this year is 2026. Yes. So this team in 2026. Well, no, they lost in 2025. On which time zones? That's true. Not every time zone. We can't get into time zones. We can't do that. But yeah, Ohio State lost their last two games of the year. They lost to Indiana. My weird take here is that Michigan did it again. They broke them? Ryan Day had spent so much energy to beat Michigan this year.
