FBT Podcast 24! - UNLV

FBT Podcast

The entire FBT braintrust of MV, Frothy and Elliot get together to discuss the Gophers' season opener against the UNLV Rebels. Being who we are, everything about the game and matchups are metaphorically described using famous Las Vegas movie references, especially levels of Ben Sanderson (Leaving Las Vegas) and copius amounts of Gonzo (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas). In the cast, Frothy and MV share their armcharm analysis from watching minutes of film on the 2011 Rebel squad, thumbing through the UNLV media guide and making general truisms regarding Bobby Hauck's career to date in Vegas. A general discussion of how the Gophers stack up against the Rebels results, with the requisite caveats and cautiousness that has come to occupy Gopherdom since Brewster left the program in taters. Speaking of Brewster, the faint of heart should be warned at the 1:08:00 mark as Frothy goes VERY frontal on Tim Brewster and his comments to the press after he first arrived in Starkville for his new coaching "gig." This may in fact be the first Rated-R FBT podcast due exclusively to ranting and raving about Basement Brew. As always, tangents, irreverence, a thourgh flogging of cliched takes and general amateurism rule the day. We'd call it our finest work to date for precisely those reasons. Go Gophers and time to descend upon Bat Country, err, Las Vegas!
