Week 4 was big, but week 5 is going to be bigger. Tim and Cullen are joined by Patrick Song (avid Stanford Cardinal fan and Buckeye sympathizer), together they discuss the biggest games and developments from week 4 including the Virginia Tech meltdown and Stanford's epic comeback over Oregon. After discussing the concept of West Coast bias in college football, the guys then break down this week's huge games including Notre Dame vs. Stanford and Penn State vs. Ohio State. Will any of them pick Notre Dame to win? (hint: probably not!)

It's game time. Not just college football games, but games about college football games. In this week's episode, Tim and Cullen play the 'contender or pretender' game to evaluate which top 10 teams really have a shot at the playoff. They also play that time honored college football tradition, the 'what it?' game. "What if my team goes undefeated and beats Alabama by 35 points?" Our scenarios will be a little more likely than that one, but only a little! Tim and Cullen will also make picks for this week's biggest actual college football games including Oregon vs. Stanford.

Everything is bigger in TEXAS! On this week's podcast, Tim and Cullen are joined by Cody, a Texas native and avid TCU fan. Together they discuss the state of college football in Texas, the trajectory of the major programs, and do a deep dive on TCU vs Ohio State. The Big 12 is 0-11 in non-conference games at AT&T Stadium, but TCU is 6-0 when ESPN College GameDay is in town. Somethings got to give! Hear our predictions for the biggest non-conference game of the season so far.

Happy Overreaction Week!

Some teams looked great, and some teams fell flat on their faces (here's looking at you Texas and Michigan). In this episode, Tim and Cullen break down the biggest stories from week one, update their playoff predictions, and make picks for week two's biggest matchups

College football is back, and so are Tim and Cullen! After spending some time breaking down the Ohio State scandal from multiple angles, the guys dive into their predictions for the season. Which games this season will have the biggest impact on the playoff? How will the conference title races turn out? Will Tim finally pick someone other than Texas? Probably not, but you'll have to listen to find out!

#1 Alabama and #2 Miami both went down on the same weekend, but both are still in the playoff picture. We have a strong slate of power 5 conference championship games, all featuring top 12 teams, but the craziest news of the week may have come from Tennessee and their coaching search. Cullen and Tim break down the Tennessee/Schiano debacle and preview the conference championship games in this week's episode.

The Turnover Chain strikes again! We won't say 'The U' is back, but they're certainly relevant. Weeks ago we said that we didn't trust Georgia and Notre Dame because they were too one dimensional, that turned out to bite both of them in the end. Could we get two teams from one conference in the college football playoff? Could a two loss team make the playoff for the first time? We tackle all this and more in this week's episode.

What a weekend! As a Buckeye fan, Cullen is still recovering. There were upsets, comebacks, coach firings, and we even got our first college football playoff ranking. This week Tim and Cullen discuss all the big issues including the firing of Jim McElwain, Iowa State's rise, Notre Dame's dominance, and this week's games including Oklahoma/Oklahoma State and Clemson/NC State.

Madness, madness I tell you! Four teams that were in the top 10, Clemson, Washington, Washington State, and Auburn, all lost in the same weekend. Others, like USC and Oklahoma, were pushed to the brink but ultimately survived. College football is awesome for this reason; anyone can lose on any given day. Join us as we rummage through the carnage and discuss our biggest surprises of the weekend. Plus, we take some time to discuss 'hot seat' culture and the rush to fire underperforming coaches.

We are now halfway into the season! Some teams have looked as good as expected (e.g. Alabama), some of have been surprisingly good (Georgia and TCU), and others have been disappointing (what happened to Florida State?!). In this episode we'll pass out our midterm college football grades and project who will have an 'A' at the end of the season. We will also spend some time discussing the scandal that has rocked college basketball and it's implications for football.
