Peoria, Illinois, Sam Kinison, Richard Pryor, and a listener critique from VG. The Seahawks' struggle, Huskies unexpectedly lose to Indiana, and the Kraken are evolving. Lumen Field ain't what it used to be.

Mitch Levy, Brady Henderson, and Jacson Bevins analyze Seattle’s 31-10 beat down from the Buffalo Bills. The Seahawks' lackluster and error-prone performance, such as a snap over the quarterback’s head and an offensive lineman stepping on Geno Smith’s foot, are an embarrassment. Are we seeing some inter-team tensions? Much to debate about Seattle’s dependence on star wide receiver DK Metcalf, whose absence allowed Buffalo to pressure Seattle’s offense easily.

The Seattle Seahawks' recent performance against the Atlanta Falcons 34-14 takes them to first place in the NFC West. Highlights include Gino Smith's performance and his ability to evade pressure and make key plays.

Diving deeper into the Seahawks Falcons blowout, Mitch, Jacson, and Brady discuss the improved performance of the Seahawks' defense, which held the Falcons to just 14 points despite allowing over 150 yards rushing and struggling with tackling, especially against Falcons’ running back Bijan Robinson. The Seahawks' defense also created key turnovers, including a game-changing strip sack and defensive touchdown.

Mitch and CBS College Football Analyst Rick Neuheisel discuss Alabama's struggles, though Rick maintains his confidence in their ability to reach the SEC Championship game, acknowledging they'll need to avoid turnovers and rely on defensive leadership. He also addresses Texas's recent loss, suggesting they need to prove themselves after facing tougher competition. The conversation shifts to officiating, with Rick expressing frustration over inconsistent calls and advocating for a centralized officiating system for college football.
