    #464: Hot Mics, Wine Bottles & 5 Questions | OBB Benched | Once a Day is Fine

    Instead of QB rankings, watchlists or Lane Kiffin's BS ... we're talking about hot mics, sex tapes, hidden liquor and homoerotic tooth brushing habits... welcome to OBB Benched! The show kicks off with a pair of wild hot mic moments from the college sports world. First, LSU pitcher Devin Sheeran (yes, Ed's brother) gets flagged by the ESPN broadcast crew for his colorful vocabulary during a game. Then things escalate when a mystery voice during a Nebraska–Oklahoma State women's softball broadcast drops a phrase that no one can explain, no one can identify, and no one will ever forget. The ball sack lady remains at large. From there the boys pivot to the story of the week — a Michigan woman arrested at CVS who was found, during processing into jail, to have an unopened bottle of Cupcake Vineyards Pinot Grigio hidden somewhere it was never designed to go. The LinkedIn profile connection makes the whole thing ten times better. This spirals into a conversation about the most creative ways the guys have ever smuggled liquor into a sporting event (binoculars, Listerine bottles, questionable medical equipment), plus a legendary flashback to a long-lost figure known only as the Beeper Girl. Will Levis then enters the chat — his mom went on a podcast and shared that her son spent a significant amount of money trying to get his sex tape scrubbed from the internet. She also confirmed it didn't work. The guys have thoughts. Then, bafflingly, Bryce Harper went viral on TikTok for how he brushes his teeth. Specifically: he squeezes toothpaste directly into his mouth, then applies the brush. The OBB crew debates whether this is a one-time-only acceptable behavior or a full-blown character flaw. The back half of the episode is Five Questions, and this week's batch is a banger: something attractive at 18 that's embarrassing by 30, which military role you'd actually be good at, which animal species deserves the biggest legal settlement against humanity, the company that's lost you as a customer forever, and what's the single worst thing to hear right after waking up from anesthesia. No QB rankings. No watch lists. Just chaos. #OBB #OrangeBowlBoys #OBBBenched #HotMic #CollegeBaseball #CollegeSoftball #BryceHarper #WillLevis #FiveQuestions #MiamiHurricanes #Canes #CollegeFootball #PodcastClips #SportsHumor #SportsComedy  OBB Benched is the offseason, off-topic companion show to Orange Bowl Boys, where no subject is off-limits and nothing is safe. 00:00 Cold Open & Episode Intro 00:30 LSU Hot Mic — Devin Sheeran Gets Caught 01:30 Ed Sheeran Connection & Songwriting Story 03:00 Women's Softball Hot Mic — The Ball Sack Lady 05:30 The Cupcake Vineyards Pinot Grigio Story 07:00 The LinkedIn Profile Twist 08:00 Beeper Girl & Hidden Liquor War Stories 11:30 Creative Ways to Sneak Liquor Into Events 13:30 Will Levis Sex Tape — Mom Goes on Podcast 15:00 Bryce Harper's Toothbrushing Habit Goes Viral 16:30 Weird Personal Habits & Sleep Confessions 18:30 Five Questions Begin 19:00 Q1: Attractive at 18, Embarrassing by 30 21:00 Q2: Best Military Role for Each Guy 24:30 Q3: Which Animal Species Would Win the Biggest Lawsuit 26:30 Q4: Company That Lost You as a Customer Forever 29:00 Q5: Worst Thing to Hear After Waking From Anesthesia 30:30 Episode Title Vote & Sign Off OBB Benched, Episode 464 is presented by Paul Bange Roofing, Rapid Auto Lease, and BeatinTheBookie.com.  Roofing issues?

    #463: Mensah Ranked "Tier 1A" QB | A Bandana Full of Nips

    Episode 463 of the Orange Bowl Boys is here and it does not disappoint. Before getting into any football, the boys kick things off with one of the more unexpectedly fascinating stories in recent memory — a friend who moonlights as a freight train-hopping hobo as part of what can only be described as the Hobo Illuminati. No, really. From bandanas full of nips to the logistics of sneaking onto freight trains for weeks at a time, this one goes off the rails (pun intended) in the best possible way. Once the boys finally settle in, it's a packed episode of Miami Hurricanes content. ESPN dropped their quarterback tier rankings for the upcoming season, and Cam Mensah lands exactly where he belongs — Tier 1A, the fourth-best quarterback in the country. The guys go matchup by matchup through the schedule, breaking down which opponents Miami should handle with ease and which ones (looking at you, Clemson on the road) deserve real respect. The conversation shifts to the On3 preseason top 100 players list, where five Hurricanes made the cut. Malachi Toney checks in at No. 5 nationally, Ahmad Moten at No. 27, and the boys make a strong case that Moten is a top-13 NFL Draft pick — not a late first-rounder. Mark Fletcher's No. 93 ranking gets the appropriate side-eye treatment. And the Malachi Toney discussion turns into a genuine deep dive on what it means to capture the imagination of an entire city, comparing his local impact to Hurricane legends of the past. Lane Kiffin shows up to collect his flowers — and not the good kind. His comments about Ole Miss beating Miami? Addressed appropriately. FanDuel opened Miami as a 6.5-point dog at Notre Dame for the November matchup, and the guys love every bit of it. Also on the docket: Canes baseball heading into the NCAA Regional in Gainesville without Cuvee, the SEC finally killing off its late-season cupcake games starting in 2027, the NIL-fueled chaos of an Eastern Michigan women's golf story that sounds made up but isn't, eighth graders intentionally repeating the grade for athletic advantages, and somehow — a full cookie review of Loli's Cookies inside Chow Pizza on State Road 84 in South Florida.  #MiamiHurricanes #Canes #OBB #OrangeBowlBoys #CamiMensah #MalachiToney #AhmadMoten #MarkFletcher #CollegeFootball #CFB #LaneKiffin #NIL #CanesBaseball #HurricaneSeason Orange Bowl Boys | Episode 463 is presented by Paul Bange Roofing, Rapid Auto Lease, and BeatinTheBookie.com. 00:00 Cold Open & Intro 01:00 The Hobo Illuminati Story 04:00 Hobo Logistics & What's in the Sack 06:30 Sponsor Break / OrangeBowlBoys.com 09:30 ESPN QB Tier Rankings — Mensah Is Tier 1A 10:30 Schedule Breakdown by QB Tier 13:30 Clemson on the Road & Death Valley Fears 15:30 DJ Lagway Drops to Tier 14 — Living Dangerously 17:30 On3 Top 100 — Five Hurricanes on the List 19:30 Mark Fletcher & the Running Back Devaluation Problem 21:00 Malachi Toney & His South Florida Cultural Impact 25:30 Ahmad Moten Is a Top-13 NFL Draft Pick 29:00 Sponsors and Partners 30:30 Beating the Bookie — PGA Picks & French Open 32:30 FanDuel Opens Miami at 6.5 Dogs at Notre Dame 34:00 SEC Killing Off Cupcake Weekend in 2027 35:00 Loli's Cookies at Chow Pizza — A Full Review 41:30 Lane Kiffin: The Kardashian of Coaching 44:00 Canes Baseball — NCAA Regional in Gainesville 45:30 Eighth Graders Repeating Grades for Athletic Advantage 47:00 EMU Women's Golf NIL Story & College Sports in Shambles 51:30 Episode Title Vote & Sign Off Subscribe and hit the bell so you never miss an episode.

    #462: Girl Fights, Cockfights & 5 Questions | OBB Benched | Baby Bird

    Instead of epic recruiting, rosters or QB lawsuits... we're talking about overhyped fights, trash talk and c**k fighting... welcome to OBB Benched! We kick things off with the Oregon State Beavers making headlines after signing Peteris Pinis to their basketball roster. The comment section was absolutely cooked, and we read the highlights. Then we pivot to the Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano fight — 17 seconds, $1 million payday, and a whole lot of disappointment for anyone who sat through it. From there we dig into the Edwin Diaz cockfighting scandal out of Puerto Rico. The Dodgers closer got tied up in social media posts promoting illegal cockfights, along with a couple of jockeys fresh off the Kentucky Derby. We break down why Michael Vick went to prison and nobody seems to care about the cocks, and somehow end up wondering where PETA stands on all of this. Jon Gruden pops up next — we played his clip talking about how Peyton Manning used to call out defensive backs' wives' names at the line of scrimmage as a psychological edge. Diabolical. We also get into Gruden's ongoing lawsuit against the NFL and whether Urban Meyer ever settled with that waitress. Then it's five questions time. Topics this week include: things that seemed like a huge deal as a kid but weren't (quicksand, Y2K, Segways, 3D TVs), the strangest thing you saw at college (mostly things we can't repeat on air), the coolest stadium or venue you've ever been to (Wrigley, Fenway, the old Yankee Stadium, Mercedes-Benz), the best recent piece of advice you've received (weed your garden, gratitude as a discipline), the male equivalent of lingerie (nobody had a good answer), and TV show endings that let you down — The Sopranos, Quantum Leap, Seinfeld, Ozark, and more. All that plus a brief Melissa controversy and the eternal question of what to name this thing.

    #461: Miami's Huge Recruiting Wins | Coke Dog

    CBS Sports just dropped their most complete roster rankings — and Miami came in at No. 6 in the country. Up from 15 last year. The boys break down what that means, whether this offense can touch Cam Ward's era, and where Darian Mensah fits into the conversation. On the recruiting front: two recent flips, A.J. Randall Jr.'s commitment timeline, and the ongoing linebacker depth question with two senior starters. Plus a deep look at whether the wide receiver room — with Cooper, Malley, and a loaded depth chart — is actually the best position group on the team right now. Then things go sideways, as they always do. A Texas Tech quarterback in court suing the NCAA for the right to play after betting on his own team. A 464-pound offensive lineman's brief NFL career. The UFL's empty stadiums. Canes baseball's pitching woes heading into the ACC Tournament. TSA's new weed policy and what that means for airport beagles. And someone named Coke Dog closes out the show. Classic OBB. Off-season has never sounded better.

    #460: Amazing Sports Names & 5 Questions | OBB Benched | You Stole Tara Reid from Me

    Instead of terrible kickoff times, bold predictions or punchable coaches... we're talking about airplane engines, injustice for wine moms and arguably the best name in the history of sports... welcome to OBB Benched! It's Monday, which means it's time for another episode of OBB Benched — where Orange Bowl Boys skip the football takes and just let things get weird. Episode 460 does not disappoint. The boys kick things off by celebrating the 21st anniversary of one of the internet's original great moments: Leeroy Jenkins. From there, things spiral in the best possible way. The week's scariest story lands next — the Denver airport incident where a man ran into a Frontier Airlines engine on the runway. The guys play the actual cockpit audio and break down the wild chain of events that followed, including theories about CIA black sites beneath Denver International and whether the whole thing was somehow escaped prisoners. Then it's a full deep-dive into the greatest, most ridiculous names in sports history. Zye Whitewoman's commitment to the Haskell Indian Nations leads to a list that includes Dude Person, Steve Houyouxfet, Chubby Cox, Harry Colon, Johnny Dickshot, God Shammgod, and a Clemson pitcher named Titsworth who absolutely owns every room he walks into. Lewis Hamilton and Kim Kardashian went Instagram official this week, and the guys can't help but debate: who's the one celebrity you could never date based on their past? The car analogy gets deeply committed to. Tara Reid somehow ends up as the unanimous answer. A Tampa wine mom got arrested at a U8 girls soccer game for running an unlicensed wine stand — complete with a square card reader, a chalkboard menu, and a signature blend called Referee Tears. The boys are fully on her side. And a 26-year-old Florida woman was pulled over on I-95 at 3 AM while riding a shopping cart with a shower curtain sail. Captain Jessica Sparrow. Fire questions close out the episode: $50 fines for jerk behavior, the worst band you've ever seen live (Motley Crue gets absolutely torched), messages to alien civilizations, the greatest cake debate ever recorded, craziest things ever said on the show, and the adult version of "my mom said I can't go." Episode naming chaos closes it out, as it always does.

    #459: Miami's Season Opener & NIL Payroll | Bill Cosby with a Pen

    The boys are back for episode 459, and the vibe is different this time around. Miami football isn't just on the radar anymore — they're the target, and it feels good. Kirk Herbstreit and Josh Pate have both gone on record calling the Canes a legitimate favorite to win the national championship. After 25-plus years of wandering in the wilderness, we're sitting here in May talking about Miami like it's 1987 all over again. Ro, Toast, and Scoop dig into what that actually means, whether to embrace the hype or pump the brakes, and why the "rat poison" framing doesn't even apply anymore. They break down the jaw-dropping roster valuation numbers — Miami is reportedly the second-most expensive roster in college football at an estimated $44 million, trailing only Texas. A big chunk of that? The Darian Mensah buyout, which turns out was a very expensive transaction. Also in the mix: what role UHealth plays in all of this, why the old "eat what you kill" mentality under Donna Shalala is likely gone, and what it means for the program's financial future. On the recruiting front, Mario flipped five-star corner Dante Wright out of Georgia, and the guys react to the Kirby Smart trolling that inevitably came with it. They also get into the Mark Matthews situation — the top-rated offensive tackle in the country, his decision timeline, and whether Miami can sell him on playing the right side while Cantwell holds down the left. And yes, losing Bob to Notre Dame stings a little. Lane Kiffin found the spotlight again — this time via a Vanity Fair interview where he threw Ole Miss under the bus on his way out the door. The crew takes him apart, runs through his absolutely chaotic career timeline from getting fired by Al Davis to being dropped from a team bus at 3am at LAX, and debates whether LSU finally gets a return on their investment. FSU comes up too, because it always does. The Norvell buyout is still somewhere between $45-51 million, the program is in genuine trouble, and there's apparently a faction of FSU fans lobbying to bring in Manny Diaz as the next head coach. The guys can barely contain themselves. Subscribe and hit the bell so you never miss an episode. Sign up for Obligatory Reading at orangebowlboys.com — the Monday morning newsletter drops at 6am.

    #458: Airline Insanity & 5 Questions | OBB Benched Ep 458 | The Spirit of the Seas

    Instead of AD drama, playoff expansion, or post-Spring rankings... we're talking about crazy airline incidents, grown men crying, and beat reporters cooking GMs... welcome to OBB Benched! We kick things off with the United Airlines plane that clipped a bakery truck on the Jersey Turnpike — and the real question nobody's asking: did the driver pass his drug test? Then a Delta flight out of Miami gets turned around on the taxiway because one woman refused to hang up her phone, delaying the whole plane two hours. The boys have thoughts. Strong ones. From there it's on to a cruise ship hantavirus outbreak in Cape Verde — perfect timing since Ro is getting on a boat in July — followed by the single greatest NHL press conference clip we have ever heard. The beat reporter for the Toronto Sun showed up to the Toronto Maple Leafs GM introduction and absolutely cooked the new hire to his face, with the GM sitting right there at the table. "That's it?" That's it. Then there's the JP Morgan lawsuit, where a former employee is claiming his female boss used promotions and perks to keep him as a personal sex slave. The story went from true, to false, to true again with two new witnesses — and JP Morgan apparently tried to settle for a million before it hit the courts. The boys are on Team Guy. We wrap up with Five Questions: worst fast food chain at their own signature item (Arby's roast beef is rubber, fight us), small luxuries worth every penny, the scariest thing that's ever happened to you (one of the guys nearly took an AK-47 to the face on a SWAT call and didn't even know it), favorite rage songs, and what a man should smell like.

    #457: Miami AD Drama & Playoff Expansion | OBB Ep 457 | They Hang The Meat Outside in Texas

    Episode 457 of the Orange Bowl Boys is here — and the guys wasted zero time finding the plot. We open on a revelation that should have been impossible: Fuddruckers is still open. Five locations in South Florida alone. The guys spend a solid chunk of the cold open working through the stages of grief on that one before pivoting to everything that actually matters heading into the 2026 season. AD Dan Radakovich is out six months early, and while the guys are fully behind whoever's calling the shots at The U, they dig into what the move probably means — and why the next person in that chair needs to be built for the NIL era, not the one before it. Miami just came off a playoff run and the brand is at an all-time high. That job posting is going to look very different than it did five years ago. On the field, the guys are fired up. Brad Crawford at CBS Sports has Miami sitting at #1 in his post-spring top 25. The Mensah/Fletcher quarterback-running back duo landed second in the country, right behind Ole Miss and right ahead of Arch Manning and Texas. The running back room is being called the deepest in college football — and the guys point out that guys who aren't even getting mentioned right now (Pringle, Lyle, Marty) would be outright starters at half the ACC. Conference realignment talk is back, this time with a scenario floating Miami and Florida State to the Big Ten while the SEC absorbs Duke and UNC. The guys break it down, debate whether the ACC/Big 12 merger makes any sense, and have some strong opinions about what Fox would do if Miami and Ohio State landed in the same conference. On the lighter side: F1 Miami prices (the $150 Golden Glizzy is a real thing that happened), a genuinely wild Kentucky Derby recap involving two brothers, Vinnie Viola's horse, 18 of 19 descendants of Secretariat, and one of the guys admitting to his wife after 29 years together that he refuses to watch horse racing live. Baseball wraps things up with a quick look at the stretch run, Daniel Cuve's back injury, and a brief history of Tommy John surgery.
