Ohio State 34 Notre Dame 23 and just like that, the college football season is over. We got the whole gang for one last ride - Felder, Roddy, Wayne, and Hartzell - breaking down the Buckeyes win and what it means for both of the programs that played in Atlanta on Monday night. Naturally, the conversation steers towards the OSU roster, and both the ability (and cost) to retain so many elite players in Columbus. If Ryan Day got the trophy he needed most, what coach needs to hoist the hardware next? Is Notre Dame a program that can sustain CFP runs like the one they just went on? Who's going to be playing in this game a year from now in Miami? We really nail the dismount on the final college football show of the season here on CSN. Thanks for listening and enjoy!

There's a LOT going on today. MLK Day, Presidential Inauguration, CFP National Championship, and - you guessed it - beaucoup college basketball reaction! We got Matt Norlander back in the chair to break down the happenings from this past weekend, starting with a gauge on the Big Ten hoops scene; the good (Michigan State), the bad (Mick Cronin's press conferences), and the ugly (Indiana's soon-to-be head coaching search). ACC was spicy on Saturday, including UNC's embarrassing home loss, SMU's beatdown, and a huge next couple of weeks for the Deacs. SEC, Big East, and Big 12 are also covered, plus whatever is happening in Spokane with a Zags team that is coming off an 0-2 week. There are official CFP score predictions for tonight's big game in Atlanta, which Hartzell doesn't think is going to be very competitive, and Norlander has a bold prediction on the winner (and the score).

A ton to get to on the latest Gauer Hour! Megan and Rob discuss the introduction (finally) of units to the NCAA Tournament and why it's a massive step forward for the game. Plus the usual recap/preview, hitting on all the games from the last five days and previewing a massive slate of games to come (South Carolina-Oklahoma; UCLA-Baylor; Maryland-Texas; Maryland-Ohio State; South Carolina-LSU). And after losses of varying degrees, Rob questions the NCAA Tournament resumes of a team from the Big Ten, Big 12 and SEC.

The fellas have been marinating on these takes since the weekend, time to unpack what we saw in the CFP Semis. Roddy Jones was in Miami for the Orange Bowl, so he has first-hand observations on Notre Dame / Penn State (and you already know Wayne has got all kinds of Drew Allar takes). Lots of takeaways from the Cotton Bowl where Ohio State took care of Texas late, even without their best stuff. Hartzell and the Lock Doc join Hot Rod and Cookie to look ahead toward Monday night in Atlanta. How's everybody feel about the big game? Why is Wayne doing an Irish accent? And where is the Doc of Locks leaning? There's only 6 days left in the college football season, so let's make it count.

A wise man once said 'how can you know where you're going if you don't know where you're from'. Today's episode - our first college hoops show of the season - is where we're from, and for the next three months (as the season plays out, culminating with the Final Four in San Antonio) is where we're going. So who better to assist with the ride than our in-house hoops insider Matt Norlander from CBS Sports, who joins Hartzell for 80 minutes of (mostly) basketball dialogue. We're coming off a monster weekend of hoops, highlighted by Cooper Flagg dropping 42 and making ACC freshman history in the process, Auburn might be without their best player - and NPOY front-runner (according to Norlander) - for a couple of weeks, plus lots of talk on the mighty SEC which is having a staggering hoops season in terms of quality - and quantity. Don't worry the football shows aren't over yet, but we got plenty to discuss in the inaugural college basketball show of the season, plus the first 'Now Spinning' of the new year for all the music heads!

What a Thursday of games! LSU-Tennessee was maybe the best game all year, Mississippi State notches a top-10 win over Oklahoma and two very different-looking ACC games go to overtime. Not to mention, USC-Maryland was a thriller on Wednesday, and South Carolina-Texas comes on Sunday! Rob and Megan hit on all of those games and more, plus they have a great chat with Lulu Kesin of The Greenville News to talk about the impact of Ashlyn Watkins' injury on South Carolina and get her thoughts on the team as a whole.

We got CFP games coming back into our lives on Thursday and Friday night, so let's get the gang back together to break these down. The squad is assembled; Roddy Jones, Wayne Cook, Hartzell, and the Doc join forces to run through the Orange Bowl & Cotton Bowl. We head to Texas to bring in Craig Way, the Voice of the Longhorns, to give us some local perspective on Texas' chances as an underdog against mighty Ohio State on Friday. Could we be in line for the first real upset of this year's playoff? Roddy is calling the Orange Bowl for national radio, so he gives us a full breakdown of what to expect in the rock fight we all expect between Notre Dame and Penn State. Plus the guys make some picks and predictions to close out the show.

CFP Quarterfinals are in the books and we're going to talk about them. Wayne and Felder join Hartzell (no Roddy because he's nursing a sore throat) to recap the four games that got us here. Full recaps of the Sugar, Rose, Peach, and Fiesta bowls, plus what it means moving forward in the semis. Obviously Ohio State is the team to beat, but what do the guys make of Texas' escape vs ASU? There are some members of the show that believe Notre Dame has the best QB left in the tournament, which is a take. What do the losses for Georgia and Oregon say about those two programs; bump in the road or harbinger of things to come? Why did all four teams that had byes lose, and what does that say about the future CFP models? Plenty to discuss as we ring in the new year on the first CSN of 2025!

Do you like fouls? Then you probably loved Texas-Oklahoma. Rob Joyce and Megan Gauer ring in the New Year by recapping the Longhorns' win, talking USC's improved form, and hitting on Maryland now that they've played someone worth talking about with the Michigan State victory. Then we hand out some conference superlatives and preview a massive week upcoming across the country, with games on games on games.

The final show of 2024 with the fellas. Felder, Wayne, Hartzell, and the Doc huddle up to run through the CFP Quarterfinal games over New Year's. To start, there are takes on Jim Mora running his mouth, Jayden Daniels vs Michael Penix, and the 'good old days' of bowl season, but there is also real, actual, football talk. The guys rank the 8 starting quarterbacks still alive in the playoff, and you might be surprised who some of the guys think is at the bottom of the list. What's the path to Boise or ASU pulling off a monster upset, and which of those two teams is more likely to shake up the bracket? Will either team in the Sugar Bowl eclipse 20 points? Would an Oregon blow out - however unlikely - mean the end for Ryan Day? All that and a whole lot more covered over a 90-minute end-of-the-year edition of CSN. Happy New Years, everybody!
