Saturday vs Sunday episodes

  • Chargers win with punishing defense, eliminating the Chiefs from playoffs.

    Chargers win another gritty game with a punishing defense, doing just enough on offense. 

    In a must have it game, the Chiefs didn't have it on offense at all. In a continuing theme for 2025 the Chiefs couldn't run the ball and couldn't hit any explosive plays in the passing game. Mahomes scrambled for their only TD. 

    The Chiefs defense still played really well holding the Chargers to 16 points, but that still wasn't good enough. The lack of offensive production has fully caught up with the Chiefs and now they'll be on the couch watching the playoffs from home for the first time since Patrick Mahomes has been their starting QB.

    The Chargers are playing gritty tough football lead by their defense. The line was harassing Mahomes all game lone and the secondary was teeing off on Chiefs receivers with some of the biggest hits we've seen all season. 

    The Chargers have beaten the Eagles and Chiefs at their own game in back to back weeks. Tough Defense and tough offense. This team has truly taken on Jim Harbaugh's personality. This looks like a team that can make a deep run in playoffs.

  • Never 100% after torn ACL. Parsons and Mahomes may never be the same.

    Week 15 of the 2025 season will be a memorable weekend in NFL history for the wrong reasons. 

    Patrick Mahomes suffered a season ending ACL injury in the final minutes of a losing effort that knocked them out of the playoffs for the first time in his career as a starting QB.

    Micah Parsons tore his ACL after becoming the highest paid non QB in NFL history. 

    Davante Adams entered the week with the most TD's in NFL and suffered what looked like a severe hamstring injury.

    Going into week 15 the Rams and Packers looked like two of the best teams in the NFC and likely Super Bowl contenders. Coming out of week 15 they both have to find a way to replace irreplaceable players. 

    There were many other serious injuries throughout this season, but this weekend put an exclamation point on it.

  • LETS DEBATE! Who 'should' be in vs who 'is' in.

    The College Football Playoff is an invitational. Even the week to week rankings are arbitrary and decided by a group of people who will not share their reasons. 

    The selection committee always leaves someone out who many people think should have been in. And likewise they put someone in that many people think should be left out. 

    Until the committee is eliminated entirely and there is a defined 'play in' system, we will always get this debate of who 'deserved' to be there.

  • BIG10 CHAMPIONSHIP REVIEW: Indiana's Defense leads the way.

    Indiana's defense leads the way to a Big10 title and 13-0 record. This was every bit of a heavyweight fight between what looks like the two best teams in the country. 

    Both defenses were dominant and deserving of high praise.

    Fernando Mendoza made the plays that mattered in the 4th quarter to secure the win. 

    These teams go into the playoffs with first round bye's and look like they're headed on a collision course for a rematch in the national title game.

  • BIG 12 CHAMPIONSHIP REVIEW: Texas Tech Dominates BYU...Again!

    Texas Tech was the better team in all phases of the game and left no doubt they're one of the best teams in the country. They dominated BYU and earned a first round bye in the playoffs.

    The Red Raiders Defense lead they way as it has all year. Bear Bachmeier got injured in the first half of the game and it was clearly limiting the BYU offense.

    Texas Tech looks like a complete team and will be a handful for whoever faces them in playoffs.

  • SEC CHAMPIONSHIP REVIEW. Georgia Dominates Bama.

    Georgia dominated Bama in the SEC championship game leading wire to wire and leaving no doubt they're one of the best teams in the country. 

    Bama is limping their way into the playoffs with one of their worst performances of the year. 

    Georgia is firing on all cylinders with an efficient offense and what is now looking like a championship caliber defense. Nobody wants to play Georgia in the CFP.

  • Oregon takes care of business in Washington. 11-1 Ducks should host a playoff game.

    Oregon beat Washington on the road to finish 11-1 for the regular season. Washington is a tough out at home as this is only their second home loss in the past 27 games. 

    The Ducks have been showcasing their depth as they have been dealing with multiple injuries throughout the latter half of the season. 

    Missing out on the BIG10 championship game might just be a blessing in disguise, as it gives the Ducks time to heal in preparation for the playoffs.

    Washington had a good season and will likely be competing for a playoff spot next year if Demond Williams continues to improve at QB.

  • REVIEW: BYU vs UCF, Texas Tech vs WVU. PREVIEW: Big12 title game rematch.

    Texas Tech and BYU finish 11-1 and head to the Big12 championship game for a rematch.

    Texas Tech smoked WVU 49-0 in a game that was no contest right out of the gates. The Red Raiders are heading into the conference championship game firing on all cylinders and look every bit like a national championship contender.

    BYU took about 15 mins to find their footing against UFC falling behind 14-0. After that they woke up and outscored UCF 41-7. At game time the Cougar's already knew they were in the Big 12 title game which could have contributed to them coming out flat. They cannot afford to do the same against the Red Raiders.

  • Georgia's defense leads the way in a rock fight against Georgia Tech. UGA in SEC Championship game.

    Georgia wins an ugly rock fight of a game against Georgia Tech. This is truly the embodiment of a rivalry game where we can 'throw away the regular season records'. 

    The Bulldogs defense lead the way shutting down the Yellowjackets run game holding them to 69 yards rushing while UGA's offense put up 190 yards on the ground. Georgia only put up 70 yards passing on 11/17 from Gunner Stockton. This is definitely an anomaly compared to the rest of the season. 

    Is this a source of concern for Bulldog fans going into the post season? Or do we just chalk it up to a rivalry game where anything can truly happen?

    Georgia Tech's ACC title hopes are still alive.

    Georgia needs a much better offensive performance in the SEC title game no matter who they are facing.

  • Ole Miss punches ticket to playoffs with first ever 11-1 regular season record.

    Ole Miss plays a dominant game to finish off their first 11-1 season and virtually guaranteeing a spot in the playoffs. Trinidad Chambliss was outstanding throwing for 359 and 4TDs, and Kewan Lacy added 143+ yards on the ground and a TD. 

    Ole Miss looks like one of the best teams in the country and fully capable of winning a national championship. The question will be if Lane Kiffin will still be in Oxford by the time the national championship trophy is awarded.
