On Tuesday’s   Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is under the weather to start Tuesday’s show, but is pushing through because the Mariners have moved one step closer to the World Series with a game two win at Toronto.  So many heroes for game two, but the postseason storyline continues to be Jorge Polanco and his 2025 turnaround. The bullpen was fantastic again being led by Eduard Bazardo! 

The show pivots to college football as John Canzano from JohnCanzano.comjoins the show to chat about all the recent firings in college football with James Franklin out at Penn State and Trent Bray let go at Oregon State. College football is losing its patience. Could former Cougs head coach Nick Rolovich be the leading candidate at Oregon State?  Also, how close is the BIG 10 to private equity and what does that mean?  And, what did John learn from Oregon’s loss to Indiana and Washington State’s near upset of Ole Miss?

Danny Kelly of The Ringer pays Puck a visit to chat about the unbelievable season from Jaxon Smith-Njgiba, another Seahawks road win and Puck proposes a radical idea.   Who is currently the best team in the NFL and why is the Seahawks running game struggling. 

Jim Duquette, MLB Network Radio is on his way to Seattle and joined Puck from the airport to discuss the first two games of the series and how surprised he is that Seattle is up 2-0.   Jim and Puck chat about Seattle’s pitching matchups that are left in the series and they pay a visit to the NLCS and Blake Snell’s performance in game one. 

Puck wraps up the show with, “Hey, What the Puck!?”    Tip of the cap to Jorge Polanco. Just an amazing turnaround from a year ago.
