Barstool College Football Show heads to Oklahoma State

Dave posted the road show's schedule Monday afternoon, along with the Wake Up Barstool clip where he pitched Gruden on Knoxville.

The current @BarstoolCFB schedule is as follows: This week at Ok State vs Texas Tech @CowboyFB Next week we have been trying to secure a location for @GamecockFB vs Georgia but so far unsuccessful. If anybody has great spot let us know If that doesnt work @BarstoolGruden wants us at old Rocky Top

So Stillwater is locked in. Next week is where it gets messy. Georgia goes to Williams-Brice Stadium to play South Carolina on November 21, and Dave says the show has tried to lock down a location for that one and so far hasn't. He's asking the internet for help. If anybody in Columbia has a big lawn and a liquor license, now's your chance. In the Wake Up Barstool segment, the fallback is LSU at Tennessee, which is also on November 21 at Neyland. Dave basically gave Gruden homework: use your Tennessee connections and get us in. Gruden said he'd work on it. Nothing is booked yet.

The show has already done the huge-campus-crowd thing this season. Notre Dame hosted them, and Kayce Smith is still riding that high from South Bend.

Still living on this absolute HIGH. Thank you, South Bend. 😍

South Bend is the bar now. Whatever comes after Oklahoma State has to pull that kind of crowd, and that's why the Knoxville backup isn't some random pick. LSU-Tennessee has been on the Wake Up Barstool radar for weeks. Back on the October 26 episode, someone on the show flagged it as the game that could wreck LSU's season.

“That's the only blemish I see coming for LSU, is LSU at Tennessee.”

Gruden is clearly all in on making it happen. This weekend he was in Knoxville for Tennessee's 34-6 win over Kentucky. He went full dark mode in Vols gear, called it the place where everything started for him and his wife, and went on the show Monday raving about the atmosphere. Then he posted the broadcast shot of the Neyland crowd mid-game, with himself at the field wall looking up at the stands.

There isn’t a better scene in college football. Neyland Stadium.

That's about as hard a sales pitch as a guy can make. The order of operations is Oklahoma State-Texas Tech this Saturday, then Columbia if somebody comes through, and if nobody does, Gruden gets his Rocky Top weekend with LSU coming to town. Watch Dave's mentions this week. If a South Carolina host doesn't turn up soon, the College Football Show is probably headed to Knoxville.
