10 DEC 2025 · This week’s episode is loaded with drama, debates, and deep-dive reactions from a massive weekend across college football. We start with rapid-fire recaps from around the country — including Alabama vs. Georgia, Texas Tech vs. BYU, Duke vs. Virginia, and Ohio State vs. Indiana — plus Nick breaks out his three favorite OSU FG's of all time. Then we turn to the College Football Playoff rankings and the controversies they created. Did Notre Dame deserve a spot? Should Alabama have snuck in? And with two Group of 5 teams making the field, is this the new normal or a one-year fluke? We also react to the chaos in South Bend after the Notre Dame athletic director blasted the ACC and the Irish announced they’re skipping their bowl game. Smart move or a terrible message? Next, we go bowl shopping. Outside the CFP, there are some legitimately great matchups on the slate — including Michigan vs. Texas in the Citrus Bowl, Iowa vs. Vanderbilt in the ReliaQuest Bowl, Boise State vs. Washington in the LA Bowl, Penn State vs. Clemson in the Pinstripe Bowl, Georgia Tech vs. BYU in the Pop-Tarts Bowl, and a sneaky-good Arizona vs. SMU showdown in the Holiday Bowl. Finally, we close with Rick Neuheisel’s bold prediction that bowl games will eventually become the first games of the season. Is he out of his mind… or ahead of the curve? It’s playoff takes, bowl mania, and wall-to-wall college football — let’s go.

5 DEC 2025 · This week’s episode dives headfirst into one of the wildest turns of the college football season — and we’re hitting every curveball the sport just threw at us. We open with the stunning recruiting bombshell: five-star quarterback Jared Curtis, ESPN’s No. 1 pocket passer, flips from Georgia to Vanderbilt in one of the biggest shockers of the cycle. Then we shift to coaching news, including Pat Fitzgerald speaking with eight programs before ultimately choosing to reboot his career at Michigan State. Plus, Alex Golesh gets asked about golf… and gives an answer that makes us wonder: Has golf become college coaching’s new enemy? The coaching carousel spins again as Brian Hartline heads to South Florida, and we react to the latest College Football Playoff Rankings, including: Why Vanderbilt actually dropped after blowing out a ranked Tennessee team Why Alabama mysteriously jumped to No. 9 Whether Ohio State and Indiana are basically guaranteed byes And the big question: Is Alabama in no matter what? We also debate the best championship game of the weekend, predict what Florida fans will feel in five years about not hiring Lane Kiffin, unpack Penn State sitting at 150 while VT sits top 25, and close out with full Top 12 playoff bracket predictions before Selection Sunday. Finally, we preview every matchup on deck for Championship Weekend, including: • North Texas vs. Tulane • BYU vs. Texas Tech • Georgia vs. Alabama • Indiana vs. Ohio State • Duke vs. Virginia It’s chaos. It’s controversy. It’s championship week. Let’s get into it.

2 DEC 2025 · This episode is loaded. College football just delivered one of the strangest, loudest, and most chaotic weekends in recent memory, and we’re breaking down every angle. We start with Jon Sumrall’s press conference — yes, the one where he randomly mentioned Lane Kiffin. Why did that happen? Weird doesn’t even begin to describe it. Then we get into the Gators letting him coach Tulane… smart move, bad move, or just another chapter in a bizarre coaching saga? Jadan Baugh hits 1,000 yards, Florida and Florida State both stumble through disappointing seasons, and yet only one of these programs actually has something to look forward to. (Hint: it’s the one with Lagway.) We then dive into the absolute circus that was the Lane Kiffin situation. Should Ole Miss even let him coach? Did Florida break the internet? Is this the strangest storyline in years? Probably yes to all three. Plus: • Steve Sarkisian says missing the playoff means Texas will change how they schedule. • The Iron Bowl was incredible — and heartbreaking for Cam Coleman. • Alabama cancels USF, and why small schools might really suffer with the SEC’s move to a 9-game schedule. • Ohio State beats Michigan exactly the same way Michigan beat them last year. • The controversial Jeremiah Smith touchdown.

26 NOV 2025 · This week’s episode dives headfirst into the madness of Rivalry Week and the fallout from the latest College Football Playoff rankings. We break down what stood out from the CFP committee’s decisions and what it means heading into a massive weekend. Is Mike Norvell truly safe at Florida State — and was keeping him the right call? We explore why FSU made the move and whether it stabilizes the program moving forward. Then it’s prediction time: What really happens with Lane Kiffin on Saturday? We give our final read on the rumors, the pressure, and the possible outcomes. Plus, Joel Klatt sparked debate by claiming Alabama–Auburn isn’t even in the same hemisphere as Michigan–Ohio State. Is he right? We weigh the history, the stakes, and the truth behind the rivalry tiers. We also break down whether Michigan can win five straight against Ohio State, what it would take, and how nuclear the reaction would be if Ryan Day loses again. And if Michigan wins… are they in the CFP no matter what? We explain how a Wolverine win could completely blow up the bracket. Texas fans — do the Longhorns deserve a CFP spot if they beat Texas A&M? We make the case for and against. Finally, we rank the top rivalry games in college football and debate the order: Michigan vs Ohio State Alabama vs Auburn Florida vs Florida State Clemson vs South Carolina USC vs UCLA And we preview a rivalry that’s about to skyrocket back into the Top 5 soon: Texas vs Texas A&M — and why its return is massive for the sport. It’s rivalry, chaos, stakes, and storylines — everything college football is supposed to be. Buckle up.

21 NOV 2025 · On today’s episode, we dive deep into the chaos surrounding Florida’s head-coaching search — starting with the biggest mystery of the week: Did Jon Sumrall actually interview with the Gators, or was the entire situation a strategic leak gone sideways? Reports say Sumrall backed out, but would a Group of Five coach really walk away from Florida… or did he realize he was being used to pressure Lane Kiffin? We also break down Sumrall’s strange ‘not a top-25 team’ comment, and what it tells us about his mindset, motives, and future. Next: Are Florida fans setting themselves up for disappointment if the hire isn’t Lane Kiffin? My opinion changes every 24 hours — and we sift through where Lane truly might end up. Then we tackle the national picture: • If the final two playoff spots come down to Alabama, Notre Dame, BYU, and Miami, which two are in? • Has the College Football Playoff Committee basically told us bad losses matter more than big wins? And does head-to-head still matter at all? We also react to the Big Ten floating a 24-team playoff — what’s the perfect number, and is this just a money grab? PLUS: A wild hypothetical — • Could Michigan leave the Big Ten? • Would they go independent? • Would the SEC take them, and how would Michigan actually fare in the SEC? To close the show, we look ahead to a sleepy November slate and explain why this weekend proves how badly the SEC needs to ditch cupcake week — thankfully, that ends next year. And of course: Does the loser of Oregon vs USC fall out of the CFP?

18 NOV 2025 · This episode breaks down the wildest storyline of the weekend: Lane Kiffin vs. Florida — both on the field and in the rumor mill. We open with Florida’s frustrating 34–24 loss at Ole Miss, spotlighting DJ Lagway’s strong designed-run usage in the first half… and the puzzling disappearance of it in the second. The Gators' defense once again gave up massive chunk plays, including a monster night from Kewan Lacey (31/224/3), the one player they couldn’t afford to let beat them. And Florida’s season-long issue shows up again: they can’t close games — Georgia, Ole Miss, USF, and even their wins vs Mississippi State and Texas all showed the same cracks. Then we dive into the controversial picked-up pass interference flag and whether the SEC had an interest in Ole Miss securing a College Football Playoff spot. Next: Lane Kiffin. We break down everything he said after the game — what he meant, what Ole Miss fans hated, and what his comments really indicate about his future. Plus we get into the Baton Rouge rumors, the family trip to LSU, whether LSU was ever real, and why Florida may still be the most logical landing spot if Kiffin leaves. Then we hit the rest of the weekend’s biggest stories: Was Pitt ranked only to boost Notre Dame’s résumé? BYU deserves a playoff spot if they win out USF blows its opportunity & Golesh becomes a real name for Oklahoma State James Franklin to Virginia Tech — steppingstone or final destination? We close with a full breakdown of the most chaotic question in college football: If Michigan, USC, Alabama, and Oregon all finish with two losses, who gets in? We compare best wins, worst losses, head-to-heads, strength of schedule, and what the committee historically values — and why Michigan may get the nod even if they aren't the most deserving.
