Closing Remarks and Show Information

Clay Travis comes out swinging over the controversy surrounding Arch Manning, Holly Rowe and Steve Sarkisian after Manning faced backlash for laughing at an AI-generated meme stemming from Texas’ dramatic win over Ohio State. Clay argues that sports media has lost its ability to distinguish between internet humor and real-world behavior — and explains why he believes Manning never should have been pressured to apologize.

Plus, Clay reacts to the debate surrounding Sydney Sweeney’s football-themed ad, examines new reporting on how much powerhouse programs including Ohio State, Oregon, Texas, LSU, Texas A&M, Miami, Notre Dame, Ole Miss, Tennessee and Alabama are spending on college football rosters, and discusses proposed federal legislation aimed at establishing new rules for college athletics.

Finally, Clay looks at the enormous differences in state and local taxes facing NFL stars such as Brock Purdy, Dak Prescott and Lamar Jackson depending on where they play and live.
