Mitch Levy and Hotshot Scott kick off with a recap of the Seattle Seahawks' frustrating overtime loss to the Los Angeles Rams. They discuss Smith's tendency to hold onto the ball too long and the team's ongoing struggles with offensive line protection, which led to seven sacks for the Rams. Meanwhile, much praise for rookie receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba's strong performance.

Mitch interviews New York Times bestselling author and baseball historian Eric Sherman, who has written nine books on baseball, including his recent work, "Daybreak at Chavez Ravine: Fernando Mania and the Remaking of the Los Angeles Dodgers." They discuss the impact of Fernando Valenzuela, a Mexican pitcher who rose to stardom in 1981, quickly becoming a cultural phenomenon and icon, particularly within the Mexican American community. The interview closes with a tribute to Valenzuela, who passed away recently at 63, with Sherman noting his enduring influence on baseball and cultural history.

Seahawks No-Table analyze the Seattle's 26-20 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The panel delves into quarterback Geno Smith's mixed performance, highlighting his three interceptions and accountability, while noting his career-high 360-yard game with standout moments like a 15-yard game-tying touchdown.

Neuheisel analyzes Lincoln Riley's struggles at USC, including his over-reliance on passing and failure to adapt his strategy. Mitch and Neuheisel also discuss Ohio State's continued dominance over Penn State, Clemson's and Texas A&M's struggles, and implications for the playoffs in each major conference.
