College Football Power Hour

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 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 Fenton & Jason Fitz wrap up Week 7 of college football as they take one last look at Oregon’s victory against Ohio State. While the Buckeye fanbase starts to doubt their head coach, Ryan Day, Ducks fans sing Dan Lanning’s praises for a strategic 12-man penalty.

A new AP Poll is out so Caroline and Fitz break down who’s ranked too high, too low and just right. What business does Michigan have to still be in the Top 25 and what’s giving Iowa State the edge against their fellow undefeated conference opponent BYU?

As the midway point of the season approaches, the duo look at the current Heisman odds for top candidates such as Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty, Colorado’s Travis Hunter, and Oregon’s Dillon Gabriel.

Caroline & Fitz also make some mid-season playoff predictions, including the possibility that traditional powerhouses Alabama & Georgia might not find themselves in playoff contention come December.

Finally, the pair share which games they’re watching this weekend, from the best-of-the-best SEC matchups to a few games only a college football sicko could bring themselves to watch.

Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz & Adam Breneman recap the biggest games from Week 7 starting with Oregon’s 32-31 victory against Ohio State. Is Lanning getting enough credit for his gutsy play-calling in this Oregon win? Or were costly mistakes by Ohio State’s quarterback Will Howard more to blame?

The trio share their biggest takeaways from the weekend including Penn State being a national title contender and the death of USC’s playoff chances. Plus, after a close victory against Florida, can we really trust that Tennessee can be a playoff team?

Caroline, Fitz & Adam name their ‘dawgs’ and ‘puppies’ of the weekend as they give props to ASU, Clemson & Texas, while sharing some skepticism for Georgia & Alabama after their unimpressive victories.
