Forget the cookie-cutter rankings — Brien Schmauch and AV drop the most unapologetic Top 25 in college football. This isn’t a spreadsheet special; it’s a reality check for every program with playoff dreams.

We run the gauntlet from Group of Five sleepers to national title contenders, breaking down who’s built for a run and who’s destined for heartbreak:

• Why Boise State’s trip to Notre Dame could make or break their season

• The Bryce Underwood experiment at Michigan — brilliance or bust?

• Why LSU might be the most talented and overrated team in America

• Texas’ brutal road slate that could derail Arch Manning’s year

• Clemson at No. 1 — hype or hard truth?

Packed with hot takes, bold predictions, and zero filter, this episode isn’t just a ranking… it’s a preseason gut check for the entire sport.

Because in the BS Top 25, we don’t crown paper champions.

Is your team honoring its legacy — or selling it off for clicks and Nike (or Under Armour or Adidas) cash? This week on Complete BS, Brien Schmauch joins the Real Talk 93.3 airwaves with Greg Tish to break down the top 25 college football helmets — not just by style, but by story.

Here’s what we tackle:

• The regal origin of LSU’s purple and gold

• Clemson’s tiger paw: how did they go about getting that print?

• The case for simplicity: why Penn State still hits harder in black and white

• When tradition gets trampled — lots of FSU fans are STILL pissed

In a sport built on legacy, some helmets still whisper history. Others scream marketing department. Find out which schools stayed loyal to their roots — and which ones sold their soul for a flashy look.

Because in college football, heritage always hits harder than hype.

What happens when a former Georgia Bulldog comes back to break it all down? You get real stories, hard truth, and a behind-the-scenes look at what makes UGA tick.

In this exclusive Complete BS episode, Brien Schmauch sits down with former Georgia defensive tackle and 2002 SEC Champion Ken “Pooh” Veal for an unfiltered preview of Georgia’s 2025 season.

They go deep on:

• What really changed when Mark Richt took over the program — and why it worked

• How Ken almost quit football, and the phone call from his grandmother that changed everything

• Why coaching continuity in 2025 might be Georgia’s secret weapon

• The rise of Gunner Stockton and the trenches that could make or break his season

• Which freshman defenders will become household names by November

• Game-by-game picks — including whether Georgia beats Bama, Florida, and Texas

It’s not just a season preview — it’s a heart-filled, hard-nosed conversation about culture, leadership, and what it really means to be a Dawg.

UGA fans, this one’s for you. And it’s as real as it gets.

You’ve heard the hype. Now here’s the list that actually matters.

In this all-defense edition of Complete BS, Brien and AV drop their Preseason All-American picks — the linemen, linebackers, and DBs who are about to make Saturdays miserable for offensive coordinators everywhere.

Inside:

• Clemson’s defensive line is disgusting (in the best way)

• The linebacker position might be dying — but not if Anthony Hill has anything to say about it

• Caleb Downs? A top-5 NFL Draft pick in waiting

• The cornerbacks that will lock up your WR1

• And punters (yes, punters) who might actually flip playoff games

Plus, underrated names from Cincinnati, Texas Tech, Buffalo, and Iowa State, and why youth is going to dominate the 2025 college football season.

This isn’t your generic list — this is the couch coach’s scouting Bible.

What does a real All-American roster look like before the hype machine takes over?

Brien and AV go position-by-position to name their Preseason All-American Offense — complete with bold predictions, NFL comps, underrated names, and no-BS takes that’ll make you question the polls.

Inside the war room:

• Why Jeremiah Smith is the best player in college football, period

• The Clemson wide receiver room no one’s talking about

• Why DJ Lagway, LaNorris Sellers, and Julian Sayin are about to break out

• The two-headed monster at Penn State and a Missouri transfer to watch

• Offensive linemen that don’t just block — they maul

• Is Zachariah Branch hype or helium? And why Nyck Harbor might be a cheat code

From household names to future stars, this is the offensive blueprint for 2025 — straight from the Couch Coach Nation scouting desk.

Next episode: We flip to defense. Stay tuned. This is Complete BS.

Buckle up, Couch Coaches — this episode is an all-out blitz.

Brien and AV deliver a no-holds-barred audit of the 2025 college football landscape:

• Sleeper picks that could shock the playoff

• Overhyped programs skating on brand power

• Fanbases that deserve game balls… and those that need to chill

• Plus: Heisman-level player breakdowns, BS playoff snubs, and the most overrated tradition in the sport

From the sidelines of Death Valley to the whiteout at Penn State, it’s the good, the bad, and the flat-out delusional. The boys call out media myths, coaching misfires, and what needs to change before college football eats itself alive.

It's scouting meets smack talk — the way only Couch Coach Nation can deliver it.

Scouting Season is open — and the targets are wearing headsets.

Brien and AV channel their inner GMs to break down the coaching landscape like it’s draft night. Who’s the top pick to build a program around? Who’s coasting on hype? And who’s about to get cut if the win column doesn’t stack up?

Scouting Notes:

• Dabo Swinney – Proven winner. Clean resume. But has he peaked?

• Kirby Smart – Dominant in the SEC. Still hungry. No signs of decline.

• Dan Lanning – Tenacious recruiter. Scheme savant. Franchise potential.

• James Franklin – Great talent... low ROI. Too many 10-2s and not enough banners.

• Lincoln Riley – Offensive genius with a leaky defense. Seat’s warming up.

• Coach Prime – Ratings magnet. But without Shedeur + Hunter, what’s the ceiling?

• Billy Napier – Big arm at QB. Big questions everywhere else.

From rising stars to fading legends, this episode is your front-office briefing on college football’s coaching class of 2025. Pull up a chair in the war room and get your takes ready — we’re drafting with no filters.

Because in Couch Coach Nation, everybody’s on the hot seat.
