THE Podcast: Ohio State Football News

James Franklin fired Penn State offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich; Washington-Oregon State is a huge Northern game this weekend; and Texas A&M fired Jimbo Fisher and showed why no Northern team should want to copy the way the South makes decisions around college football.

On this Kings of the North, Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis check in on all that college football news, starting with a Fisher-inspired coach check on everyone from Washington's Kalen DeBoer and Iowa State's Matt Campbell to Indiana's Tom Allen and Colorado's Deion Sanders.

Then comes playoff predictions as Doug and Bill disagree on Georgia and Alabama and Oregon and Washington.

That's followed by ranking all worthy Northern defenses (there are nine) and worthy Northern offenses (there are only five) with debates around Michigan, Ohio State, Iowa, Notre Dame and more.

Finally, it's a look at the best Northern games ahead, including Michigan-Maryland, Illinois-Iowa, Texas-Iowa State, Notre Dame-Wake Forest and of course, Washington-Oregon State.
