Listen Here:

CLAY: Buck, as soon as we finish the show here, you are headed… Have you ever been to the state of Alabama at all before?

BUCK: I have not.

CLAY: There you go. Has Ali been to the state of Alabama before?

BUCK: Producer Ali has not.

CLAY: So you are both about to land in Sweet Home Alabama this evening, and then we are doing the show from Birmingham tomorrow — our affiliate station there in Alabama — and then we’re going to be at the Ole Miss-Alabama game for Buck Sexton’s first-ever college football game.

BUCK: And I’m gonna try not to embarrass Clay. I have been looking online at some of the best body paint options. So I think you gotta do a big, like, A for Alabama on the front and maybe O-L or — I don’t know — whatever you do for Ole Miss on the back. And then some face paint. I gotta go face paint too. You know, I go big or I go home. I’m gonna try to do it all the way.

CLAY: I’m trying to think. I don’t hardly remember seeing other than college kids who every now and then paint they want a recruit on their chest or something like that. I’m trying to think of an adult man that, you know, that has ever painted himself.

BUCK: Other than Puddy in Seinfeld at the Devils game?

CLAY: Yeah. That’s exactly what I’m thinking. “Gotta support the team.”

BUCK: And where’s the place for the big tailgate pregame party on Saturday?

CLAY: Yeah. We’re gonna be at the Innisfree Pub. So for anybody out there who is gonna go to Ole Miss-Alabama or going to be… Buck, I think what you’re gonna be stunned by is how many people come and don’t even go in the stadium, just come for the party, to me to tailgate all day, drink outside.

BUCK: That was my college football experience at my tiny college in New England was on homecoming weekend, there were all the parties that we went to around the football stadium. I did not care to see our tiny football team lose very badly to whoever they were playing so I didn’t go.

CLAY: Yeah. These people will be there celebrating and come to the Innisfree Pub. We’re doing… If you’re a college football fan at all, we are doing a live show for OutKick, and then a I’ll be on the Big Noon Kickoff show with Brady Quinn and Matt Leinart and Reggie Bush, Bob Stoops, and Rob Stone, that show.

But we will be live starting added 8 a.m. on Saturday from the Innisfree Pub, which is right there in Tuscaloosa. You can easily walk from there to the stadium. Buck and I will be there. You’ll be able to come by, say hi. We’ll have an awesome time, and you guys can come see what I think is going to be a gleeful Buck Sexton as he realizes that he’s lived… When’s your birthday? When do you turn 40?

BUCK: December 28th. Clay keeps telling me I’ll meet the future Mrs. Sexton at this football game.

CLAY: Yeah, so you’re gonna turn 40 on December 28th. You have almost made it two generations without going to a big college football game, so I think you’re just gonna have an ecstatic grin on your face throughout the entirety of the day. I really do.

BUCK: Let’s see what Dane in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, has got for us. Hey, Dane.

CALLER: Just trying to find out if Clay really didn’t like Buck because you’re gonna dip him into the deep end of the pool at the Crimson Tide game instead of something easy like maybe UT and Knoxville or something?

CLAY: (laughs) Look. I wanted him to go to a big game. I also believe that… I am curious. On Monday we’ll find out. But if I had to predict what will most impress Buck, I think it’s gonna be the girls. I think you are gonna be blown away by the Alabama and the Ole Miss girls. My buddy Dub, who’s an Auburn grad, is here nodding his head in the background.

I think for a guy who has never been to a college football game, the girls dressed up in their sundresses, I think you are going to leave — and I know it’s a little bit of a different world because you’ll have a hundred thousand people without masks and you and Ali are coming from New York City so I think basically… We talk about when normalcy is gonna return? College football fans have said, “Hey, we’re back to normal with the tailgating, the partying, the going to the games.”

BUCK: It will be exciting to talk to a 30-something-year-old female without two masks on my face and without having to say that I’m a male feminist and, “My preferred pronouns are…” So, you know, that’s gonna be a nice change. Thank you so much, Dane, by the way, calling from Kentucky. You know, Clay, that’s the thing.

CLAY: Nobody at Ole Miss-Alabama is gonna ask you for your preferred pronouns.

BUCK: That’s good. That’s what I like to hear.
