The 2024 Texas high school football season kicks off this week, which not only means pumpkin-spiced everything everywhere, but also for everyone to think they’re the second coming of Jimmie the Greek (Google it, youngsters).
VYPE broadcasters are no exception – and our Austin crews are a bit different.
Unlike those crews in Houston, DFW and San Antonio who typically broadcast different teams every week, our Austin crews are usually embedded with their specific team for an entire season – and often stay with the same program for years. Naturally, that leads to some good-natured trash talking and bragging between the crews.
So, this year, we’re gonna take it public. Each week, the PxP guys and/or producers from our Austin crews will attempt to pick the winner of every Austin-area game we’re broadcasting on VYPE Live.
This is not a pool; there is no entry fee and no case prize for the winner. Instead, the winner at the end of the season will receive my hearty congratulations and bragging rights for all eternity.
All that said, it’s on to the opening kickoff. Here are the Week One picks – and here’s to a great season!
