Will sought-after QB recruit Julian Lewis flip to Colorado from USC? That's what On3's Steve Wiltfong and Chad Simmons predicted Monday night. If it happens, does it change Andy and Ari's view of Deion Sanders' recruiting philosophy?

What time is the perfect time for a good college football game? Ohio State and Penn State fans have complained for the past few years about their best games being played at noon because of Fox’s Big Noon Kickoff broadcast. Monday, Fox’s Joel Klatt took to X to defend the practice. Andy and Ari will debate the perfect time for a major game.

Dana Holgorsen isn’t just consulting at Nebraska. The former West Virginia and Houston head coach is coordinating. He’ll call the offensive plays for the Cornhuskers the rest of season, and Nebraska coach Matt Rhule said he hopes Holgorsen sticks around for next season.

A reporter asked Kentucky coach Mark Stoops if he planned to step down after the season. Stoops was not amused.

With the College Football Playoff ranking reveal coming Tuesday night, producer River asks a great CFP question: What if Notre Dame’s loss to Northern Illinois had come in week 12 instead of week two?

Happy Monday! It’s time to pick the games of week 12, and there’s a monster in Athens between Tennessee and Georgia. But first, there’s news.

Florida State fired both coordinators on Sunday, a move that likely will become familiar over the next few weeks. The Seminoles weren’t paying the $70 million or so it would cost to fire Mike Norvell, so they fired OC Alex Atkins and DC Adam Fuller. Expect this to happen a lot, because there are some prohibitive head coach buyouts and fans still want something to change.
 

Next, it’s time to pick these games…

UCLA at Washington (-3.5) Total: 45.5

Texas at Arkansas (+16.5) Total: 56.5

Clemson at Pittsburgh (+9.5) Total: 55.5

Utah at Colorado (-10.5) Total: 47.5

LSU at Florida (+4.5) Total: 55.5

Missouri at South Carolina (-13.5) Total: 43.5

Virginia at Notre Dame (-22.5) Total: 50.5

Tennessee at Georgia (-8.5) Total: 48.5

Nebraska at USC (-8.5) Total: 50.5

Oregon at Wisconsin (+14.5) Total: 52.5

Kansas at BYU (-3.5) Total: 55.5

Andy and Ari watched the goalposts go down in Oxford, and we all watched a crazy day of college football.  

Alabama eliminated LSU from the College Football Playoff with extreme prejudice. Ole Miss dominated Georgia. Georgia Tech stunned previously unbeaten Miami.
