We are ahead of a pretty awesome weekend here in Seattle, who has the best (or worst) fries and Ian settles who should take the blame in ROOT sports' latest deal. It's not ROOT, but it most certainly is the cable companies, and ROOT has spoken. Stewart Mandel, The Athletic College Football Expert is heading to town for College GameDay in Seattle! He previews the game between Washington and Oregon and gives us the latest on Washington State and Oregon State's lawsuit against the rest of the Pac-12. What are the realistic chances we see a Pac-12 team in the College Football Playoff this year? The Daily Power Play! The Kraken take on the Predators tonight and there's an odd symmetry between the start of this season and their inaugural season. Plus, the new menu at Climate Pledge is making Ian hungry.
