Penn State head coach James Franklin joins to talk about the Nittany Lions’ superstars Tyler Warren and Drew Allar. He shares why Penn State values player development over adding players from the transfer portal and what’s led to his success over 11 seasons at Penn State.

Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz & Adam Breneman react to the latest College Football Playoff Rankings. How is 14th ranked BYU in the playoffs but 11th ranked Tennessee misses out? In a playoff where seeding doesn’t follow the rankings passed down from the committee, does this system need to be reinvented before it’s even begun?

The trio preview the biggest matchups of Week 13 including a classic David vs. Goliath game between Indiana and Ohio State and a Big 12 battle of BYU at Arizona State.

Was Dan Lanning out of line to fake a field goal rather than put the ball in Dillon Gabriel’s hands? Oregon keeps their perfect season alive on the road at Wisconsin but not without some controversy. Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz & Adam Breneman break down that game plus, in the SEC, Carson Beck finally looks like the QB we thought he’d be as the Georgia Bulldogs take down the Tennessee Volunteers. Elsewhere, LSU goes down HARD to the Florida Gators whose bowl chances are looking up after the win.

Caroline, Fitz & Adam share their biggest takeaways from the weekend including why Billy Napier and Florida will be the talk of the town in the offseason and which two players have pulled ahead in the Heisman race.

Caroline Fenton & Jason Fitz react to the second edition of the 2024 College Football Playoff Rankings. Only two weeks into the 12-team rankings and with Boise State in, Georgia out, Miami as the four seed, and three Big 10 teams in the top four—is the new playoff system already broken?

The two give an update on the most likely Heisman contenders. Should Miami’s Cam Ward have the edge over Colorado’s dual-threat, Travis Hunter? Are Alabama’s Jalen Milroe and Ole Miss’ Jaxson Dart pretenders or contenders for the Heisman?

Caroline & Fitz share which games they’re watching in Week 12 such as Tennessee at Georgia, Utah at Colorado, and (if you’re truly desperate for something to watch) Nebraska on the road at USC.

Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz & Adam Breneman break down Lane Kiffin’s signature win as Ole Miss takes down Georgia. Ole Miss finally proved they have the defense they were seeking to build via the transfer portal and, while Georgia certainly isn’t out of playoff contention, they have major play calling issues to sort out if they’re going to go all the way.

The trio also look at Alabama’s dominant win against LSU. The Tigers had no answer for Jalen Milroe who just might have worked his way back into Heisman contention.

Miami ends their unbeaten run after being upset by Georgia Tech but will the loss be a big deal or no deal for Cam Ward’s Heisman hopes? Plus, we raise a glass and pour one out for the highest of highs and lowest of lows from college football Week 11.

The inaugural 12 team College Football Playoff rankings are finally here. Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz and Adam Breneman provide instant reactions to the top 25 ranked teams. What does this initial ranking tell us about what the CFP committee values about the eye test, strength of schedule and quality losses?

We know who the top-ranked teams are, but what does it all mean? Could 4 teams from the Big 10 realistically make it into the playoffs? What happens if BYU loses in the Big 12 title game and a previously unranked spoiler team earns a spot?

Caroline, Fitz & Adam preview the biggest matchups of week like Georgia on the road at Ole Miss, Alabama vs. LSU and a BYU rivalry game at Utah.

Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz & Adam Breneman break down the biggest matchups of college football Week 10. Penn State remains ‘always the bridesmaid’ after losing yet again to Ohio State. Texas A&M’s playoff hopes are in serious trouble after they’re upset by South Carolina, leaving no SEC team unbeaten in conference play. Meanwhile in the ACC, Clemson gets embarrassed by Louisville and SMU painfully puts an end to Pitt’s undefeated season.

The trio share one thing learned from the weekend including Miami playing lights out with their Heisman star whereas Georgia’s Carson Beck may well have removed himself from Heisman contention entirely. Plus, is Ole Miss really back in the playoff conversation?

Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz & Adam Breneman put on their CFP committee hats and give their take on the college football playoff rankings ahead of the official release next week. The trio agree that Oregon is their no.1 team, but there’s plenty of debate surrounding where programs like Texas A&M, Ohio State, Texas, BYU and Georgia might belong.

The team has some Halloween fun by taking a look at the most ‘cursed’ teams in college football including the likes of USC, Penn State, Iowa & Tennessee.

Caroline, Fitz & Adam preview the biggest games of Week 10 such as Ohio State at Penn State, Texas A&M at South Carolina and Georgia taking on Florida.

Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz & Adam Breneman share their instant reactions to Texas A&M’s win against LSU. After a switch at QB gives the Aggies enough life to secure the win, will Texas A&M have a quarterback controversy on their hands?

The trio play a game of “NIL” as they share the biggest names, impactful images and the things they liked from Week 9. Dan Lanning continues to build his Oregon dynasty, Vanderbilt proves they’re for real, and Penn State finally looks worthy of being the no. 3 team in the county.

Caroline, Fitz and Adam then share the things that will haunt them from the weekend, from bad behavior from fans to an unfortunate performance from Syracuse’s Kyle McCord.
