Ryan and Clinton return tonight for another playoff preview episode, this time bringing you the first in a two-part series look at a couple of non-Midwest squads that will be dueling Big Ten foes this weekend.

First up, Jordan Hofeditz, a feature writer covering SMU, joins us to break down the Mustangs' ascent from G5 darling to ACC Championship Game participant in one year. How have the rebounded from an early-season loss to reach the playoff? What has the full-time switch to Kevin Jennings at QB meant for the offense, and how have they been able to be so explosive despite a dearth of injuries at both WR and RB? What are a couple of matchups to look out for as they take on Penn State this Saturday, and what are a couple of areas they might be able to exploit?

Join us on our Youtube channel live Sunday/Monday/Thursday for shows, with the episode dropping in your podcast feed the following morning. Live time for Monday/Thursday shows will remain 9 pm, with Sunday time varying based on Clinton and Ryan's schedules.
