Red Zone Is Ruined, ESPN Is Back, and Week 11 Is Wild


Listen Later

Good afternoon — November 17, 2025. Hosts William Alimonos and Zach Bishop deliver a fast-moving episode loaded with NFL picks, college football shifts, streaming-service drama, and late-night hoops chaos. They open with the long-awaited YouTube TV / Disney / ESPN reconciliation, unpacking ESPN Unlimited integration, DVR restoration issues, and whether YouTube TV has officially become the new “cable hub.” The guys share how it feels to finally have ESPN back, comparing the experience to classic cable days while venting about Red Zone’s commercial overload.

The NFL dominates the middle of the show: buzzer-beaters, overtime madness, quarterback injuries, and betting angles everywhere. They preview Bills–Texans, Steelers–Bears (with Rodgers’ fractured hand and Mason Rudolph implications), Patriots at Bengals, Lions–Giants, Chiefs–Colts, Ravens–Jets, and more. William and Zach lock in picks, break down first-quarter lines, touchdown props (like Henderson and Gibbs), and discuss who to trust in coin-flip games. They also examine the Rodgers timeline and how it reshapes Pittsburgh’s season and league-wide QB plans.

College football talk covers playoff implications, Notre Dame’s huge win at Pitt, Texas A&M’s comeback, and the Thanksgiving rivalry slate. In college hoops, they hit Louisville–Kentucky, UConn and Houston’s dominance, breakout players, and marquee upcoming matchups like the Champions Classic and Arizona at UConn.

The NBA segment brings overtime thrillers, Kevin Durant’s clutch performances, rookie flashes (Cooper Flagg, Khan Kadipal), Detroit’s surprising win streak, Washington’s spiral, and Curry’s move away from Under Armour — plus what it means for the future of athlete branding.

Throughout the episode, William and Zach mix analysis with personal stories, including attending a freezing Patriots game, on-the-ground reactions, playful jabs, and clear betting rationale. Expect a blend of weekly picks, must-watch lists, streaming rants, league storylines, and entertaining back-and-forth that tells you exactly what matters this week in sports.
