Rookie Mistake

The NFL's trade deadline was yesterday, and it was... kind of a dud, but there are still some important winners and losers even without blockbuster trades. The guys then discuss how the Big 12 has likely eliminated themselves from playoff contention, unless Oklahoma State can shake off Saturday's OT loss to Texas and run the table. Even then, it will be tough. Next, Ethan goes over the Heisman race as it stands today and gives his opinions on the players currently competing for a spot in New York, and Jackson talks about some interesting stats after the first two months of the college football season.
