The Beat of Sports

This weeks matchup between Florida-LSU has been postponed due to positive cases on the Gators, and now Nick Saban has announced that he also tested positive. Marc talks about how all sports leagues attempting to play sports outside of a bubble will have to deal with positive cases and the potential of postponed games. Plus he runs through the highest paid coaches in college football!

The best teams will still play great defense. But today's best defensive teams have explosive offenses. The game has changed. The NFL has slowly embraced more of the spread and scoring is up in that league as well. Darin Slack joins the show to talk about what we are seeing when it comes to the offensive explosion happening in college football.

With the NBA Finals in the rearview window the offseason begins! Josh Robbins joins the show to talk about the rumors involving SVG and the Pelicans, when free agency could begin, and when next season might get underway.

Texas A&M announced attendance for the Gator game was 24,709. If you want Dan Mullen to apologize for something that didn't happen (90k fans in a stadium) you certainly would want to know about the event that DID happen, right? The one that appeared to have a lot more than 24,000.

Years ago we saw the entire structure in college football change when the Power 5 was established and the sport became the have and the have-nots. And now we are seeing the same thing being discussed for the world of soccer.

The Knights suffered their first defeat of the season against Tulsa and are now set to face Memphis in what could determine who is the conference champion. Matt Murschel joins the show to discuss how UCF regroups for this weekends tilt, plus the talks Dan Mullens comments, what happened to the Hurricanes, and games being postponed due to COVID-19.

Through the first 5 weeks of the NFL season there are many teams that have been called for 1 holding penalty. Are we watching a situation where the league is calling the game differently to help generate more offense? Marc dives into the numbers behind what is happening so far this NFL season.

If you conclude Miami is not far from Clemson, recheck your assumption. The Canes' offense had one touchdown and it came late in the game. Clemson played a decent, not great, game. D'Eriq King is exciting, but he can't be your entire rushing game. Marc talks about all of that plus what is wrong at LSU, Mike Leach is who we thought he was, and more.

It was the biggest game of the season so far for the Gators as they took on Texas A&M but it didn't go very well, and Dan Mullen blamed it on the home field crowd for the Aggies. Marc talks about the crowd in College-Station but also discusses the defensive issues for the Gators.

College football's offensive explosion has happened and even the best conference in the country is being invaded. But it's just that the SEC is the last conference to be hit by the latest fad in the game.

Scoring is on the rise and there is no sign of slowing down. Everyone runs tempo and everyone has playmakers and fans love it. Admit it, it was a blast watching Alabama put up 63 and as fun watching Ole Miss and Lane Kiffin posting 48.
