## Resource

Today is “Humpday Wednesday.” The Texas Longhorns football team's schedule is one of the toughest in college football. The Big 10 is separating itself from the rest in college football. In the NBA Playoffs, the Detroit Pistons took it to the Cleveland Cavaliers 111-101, and the Oklahoma City Thunder handled the Los Angeles Lakers 108-90. The Longhorns baseball team defeated the UTSA Roadrunners 11-8 in a mid-week game. “The World’s Strongest Take!” Plus, we have Danny Davis of the Austin American-Statesman to talk Texas football, Rori Harmon of Washington Mystic, and Texas baseball. We also have Hall of Famer and Austin Gamblers coach Michael G-Man Gaffney joining us to talk about the team and the Professional Bull Riders league. You can hear it all here on “The Morning Kickoff Show!”
