On this week’s episode of The Roles Reversed Podcast, Sam & Mike return after a short break and dive headfirst into two full weeks of football mayhem. From NFL Week 6 & 7 highlights to coaching chaos in college football, the guys cover it all — and, of course, bring their signature mix of banter and bold takes.
They kick things off with the latest news out of Happy Valley, as James Franklin is officially out at Penn State after a brutal upset loss to Northwestern. Then, they break down the brand-new AP Top 25, including Vanderbilt’s historic rise, Indiana’s climb to No. 2, and LSU’s tumble down the rankings.
Back in the NFL, Sam & Mike compare mixed Power Rankings across SI, CBS, and FOX before revealing their own Top 5 — and debating which teams are legit contenders vs. total frauds. Plus, the guys unpack the ongoing drama between Russell Wilson and Sean Payton, and the Jets owner’s not-so-subtle shots at Justin Fields.
In college football action, the weekend delivered madness: unranked Louisville stunned No. 2 Miami, Ole Miss and Georgia battled in a clean offensive shootout, and Bama reestablished dominance over Tennessee.
Finally, the guys look ahead to Thursday Night Football — Vikings vs. Chargers — with player props, locks, and a few spicy predictions on Carson Wentz, Justin Jefferson, and Jordan Addison’s performances.
A message from the guys:
Thanks for tuning in and sticking with us! Whether you’re here for the football talk, the chaos, or the occasional fake ad break, we appreciate all of the support. Every episode is getting sharper, funnier, and more chaotic — just how we like it.
