HLS Podcast Finale

January 2, 2022 by Ryan Ritter

Well, I thought about stretching this thing out until after the national title game, but considering how the Fiesta Bowl ended, it seemed like this would be a more fitting end to HLS. Shane & I hold one last therapy session in talking about what went wrong during the Fiesta Bowl and what hopes we have for the future. Be sure to stay around post-credits for Eddie and I to pick the national championship and send off the HLS podcast in quite literally the most fitting way ...

Penultimate Picks Pod

December 30, 2021 by Ryan Ritter

After this episode, there will be only one more game to pick with Eddie: the 2021 National Championship. It's hard to believe this crazy picks journey is coming to an end--even crazier, we are still doing a damn good job. Despite opt-outs and COVID cancellations, Eddie and I went 7-2 last week, bringing our bowl totals to 13-10 and 12-11 as I keep my one game edge. Overall, we are 112-80-4. Yes, this means that we've hit the point in which we couldn't even screw up going over .500 if we ...

2021 Bowl Picks: Week 2

December 24, 2021 by Ryan Ritter

The only thing rougher than week one of bowl picks was whatever in the hell happened to me and my family before recording this show. There...was a lot. However, the show must go on despite my lack of research. With that in mind I came up with some, uh, "creative" methods to pick these games. I'm particularly proud of what I came up with for the multiple bowl games in baseball stadiums, personally. Oh, and we have some fun with bowl sponsors too, including me trying to chat with a bot ...

2021 Bowl Picks: Week 1

December 16, 2021 by Ryan Ritter

It's the most wonderful time of the year: bowl season. After a ridiculously incredible regular season, Eddie and I are ready to ruin it all by throwing darts at bowl season. As we won't be recording until next Thursday, we have 14 bowl games to pick. More importantly, Eddie also has a list of bowl gifts ready to go. Even more importantly, we visit some of the websites to figure out what some of this stuff is and do we ever make some discoveries. Oh, and hang on past the closing song ...

Army/Navy & 2021 Futures Reviews

December 9, 2021 by Ryan Ritter

Yeah, yeah, Eddie won the $200 Extra Life bet. I will pay up once I finish the FFXIV: Endwalker main story/marathon on Friday (I hope!). Make sure to join that on my personal twitch channel. Thankfully, I realized that I run this show. I changed some rules. Gotta keep this interesting. After all, this isn't about the money now. It's about walking off this thing with a W. After taking some liberties with the Army/Navy pick, I go over this year's tiebreaker: our 2021 futures. Spoiler alert: ...

HLS Proudly Presents: The 13th Data Point

December 3, 2021 by Ryan Ritter

Loyal Readers, today kicks off an all-important and totally-not-absolutely-overrated weekend of football: conference championships. It's the all important 13th data point. National pundits have blasted Notre Dame for failing to have one. With that in mind, I thought it was important that we highlight, not just this weekend's data point, but the other important data point that got these teams to this all important moment. After all, these teams have the chance to lose another game that Notre ...

The Freeman Era Begins! Oh…and Championship Week Picks

December 2, 2021 by Ryan Ritter

Eddie and I were, understandably a little distracted by other things in this episode. We were ready to rant a lot about Brian Kelly abandoning the Irish, but we were blessed with news that was well with Marcus Freeman taking over the helm, along with several other assistants. Enjoy the picks, as well as me breaking in continuously to list of yet another assistant staying on board and not fleeing to Baton Rouge. I'm still three games behind Eddie in our annual Extra Life bet and I need to make ...

Rivalry Week Picks + NCAA ’14 Sim: Notre Dame at Stanford

November 24, 2021 by Ryan Ritter

With Thanksgiving approaching, Eddie and Shane were gracious enough to carve out time on Tuesday to get our usual podcasting done early. Below you will find both the picks podcast and the NCAA Sim podcast and VoD. Eddie and I are all tied up after I had a massive week. As usual, our $200 bet for Extra Life will go down to the wire. This brings us both to 86-60-3 on the season. Talk about going out with a bang in the last year. In fact, I'm so proud of the record, that I did a bit a ...

The Calm Before the Rivalry Storm: Week 12 Picks

November 18, 2021 by Ryan Ritter

It's that time of year again, when teams across the nation run and hide behind some hilariously week games to prepare for their biggest games of the year. Thankfully, this year the concentrated FCS flood has been lessened than in previous years, giving us a rather solid slate of twelve games. Eddie still holds a two game lead over me in our Extra Life bet and he's still giving me hell for passing out during my 24 hour stream failure (and rightly so). I'm determined to catch up, but ...

2021 Week 11 Picks

November 11, 2021 by Ryan Ritter

It's hard to believe that we are now halfway into the month of November. The season is quickly coming to a close and there are only a handful of regular season picks pods remaining. Eddie still has a two game lead on our Extra Life bet (which, by the way, I'm doing a 24-hour stream on Friday night starting between 6-6:30pm CST--fun stuff is happening!). Both of us went 6-6 in the previous week and there is a solid slate of games, along with a couple true sicko matchups tossed in. There ...
