The Barstool College Gaming Championship Is BACK And Better Than Ever
New schools, new hosts, same game, same end goal. Find the best collegiate Warzone duo in the country. It all starts TONIGHT. Hosted by none other than our own Handsome Hank Lockwood, myself and TJ on the production.
Me and Hank are some of the worst warzone players to ever grace the internet so it makes perfect sense to put us in the booth and pass judgment on young men trying to showcase their skills.
I don’t know much about these kids but based on what I’m seeing from team Nebraska, these boys haven’t got up from their monitors since recess was a required activity.
We are going live at 6:30 eastern and the tournament starts at 7. Come by and check it out.
