In today's podcast we welcome back CBS Sports college football insider for his annual visit to talk about the world of college football. Bruce published a fascinating all access piece inside Texas A&M football this week that's the focus of our early conversation before turning to the major college football media story of the past month, the Sports Illustrated investigation into Oklahoma. It's a very interesting conversation about the current state of reporting into college athletics, the media, and the state of the NCAA. Other topics include...

-How he got Texas A&M to agree to an all access piece.
-His approach to behind the scenes journalism and reporting the story.
-The A&M/Bama game itself and the major takeaway from it.
-How A&M responds to the loss and their national title hopes still being in tact.
-The SI-Oklahoma State story and the reaction to it.
-Is investigative reporting into players receiving benefits and college programs even worth it?
-Bo Pelini's responsibility in the audio of him bashing Nebraska fans reaching the public.
-The slate of uninspiring games this weekend and why there's so many glorified exhibitions.
-A QB controversy looming at Ohio State?
-Who's the most interesting team to watch over the next month of the season.

If you're interested in college football or journalism this is a must listen.
