College Football's vaunted Week 1 is just about in the books. In this college football podcast episode, we talk through the most meaningful Saturday action, as Georgia crockpotted Clemson, Miami embarrassed Florida in the Swamp, Penn State rebooted its offense against West Virginia, and Notre Dame won a defensive struggle over Texas A&M. Plus, we put ourselves in the shoes of various fan bases and take a guess as to how each is reacting to the first full week of games. And finally, a game of word association with six new quarterbacks before paying tribute to the best performers of the week.

Verballers, it's here! At long last, the first full weekend of college football, featuring showdowns across the country, starting with Clemson against Georgia and Penn State on the road against West Virginia, shifting to Miami at Florida in the afternoon and hitting a crescendo with Notre Dame's huge road spot against new-look Texas A&M. Plus, USC and LSU in Vegas, Florida State's rebound effort against Boston College, and a plethora of action that'll keep Week 1 interesting for college football fans of all stripes.

We run through the biggest games of the weekend, take a closer look at the most interesting other games in each time slot, and of course, pay homage to our sweet, sweet Patriot League on an episode that feels like we're celebrating a holiday.

Week 0 was something else, wasn't it? With a few days to mull over Georgia Tech's upset of Florida State and SMU's comeback over Nevada, we talk through our lingering thoughts from a genuinely entertaining appetizer week of college football action. Then, with a much larger slate of action set to start this weekend, we roll out our "Early Bird Special" segment and make picks for the most intriguing Thursday and Friday games, as North Carolina travels to Minnesota and Colorado hosts North Dakota State. And finally, as is tradition, we touch base with Dan Carlin of Hardcore History fame and get his reflections on being a Colorado fan amid the Deion Sanders whirlwind and the state of his college football fandom in 2024.

Well, that was an eventful way to start a season! In this college football podcast episode, we walk back through Georgia Tech's upset of No. 10 Florida State in Ireland on Week 0. Should the takeaway be that the Yellow Jackets are considerably better than last season, or that the Noles offense with DJ Uiagalelei has taken an alarming step back? Plus, with a full slate of Week 1 games on the horizon, we renew our time-honored tradition of drafting our favorite narratives, situations and strange observations that are destined to occur in the 2024 college football season. It's time for Fantasy Things 2024!

We touch base with Andy Staples (On3 Sports) and Mike Golic Jr (GoJo and Golic) and discuss their favorite storylines for the upcoming season, imposing players they've lined up against, overrated teams, misunderstood coaches, the pride of secretly watching college football while at a fall wedding and more.

With less than a week until the season officially starts, we check back in with some of our favorite college football creators and friends to find out what's on their minds in the buildup to Week 0. First, Dan chats with Cole Cubelic (SEC Network, The Cube Show) about the most imposing players he's seen in person, his favorite uniform combos, and his favorite things in this reinvented era of college football. Then, Ty reconnects with Richard Johnson (CBS Sports, Split Zone Duo) and gets the goods on his spiciest take for this upcoming season, his out-of-nowhere playoff team, his pet storyline in 2024, and a hypothetical gymnastics competition with his fellow co-hosts.

Coming up in Part 2: Andy Staples and Mike Golic Jr.

In our latest college football podcast episode, we unpack the last 25 years of Iowa football in hopes of learning more about the events that led to the recent state of the Hawkeye offense. With insight from The Athletic's Scott Dochterman and Lucy Rohden of The Dan Le Batard Show and Meadowlark Media, we take a look at how the Iowa offense became a punchline, how a new offensive coordinator is hoping to turn things around, how the fan base is dealing with perpetual frustration, and where things are headed for a revered coach.

At long last, we conclude or mega preview series by addressing the only five teams left: Notre Dame, Washington State, Oregon State, UConn and UMass. How will the Irish personnel match up with their new offense under Mike Denbrock? How are Washington State and Oregon State dealing with mass roster turnover and being left for dead in the Pac-12? Can Jim Mora work his magic and get UConn back to six wins? And, is there any way UMass can join the MAC a year early?

We close out the Big Ten with three more team previews in Part 3! On this episode, deep-dives of Penn State, USC, Nebraska, Rutgers, Michigan State, Washington, Maryland, Purdue and Wisconsin. Is it College Football Playoff or bust for Penn State in 2024? Is USC's offense or defense more worrying as it enters a new conference? How much is too much to put on Dylan Raiola in his first year with Nebraska? Can Michigan State win with its defense? Can Maryland win with its offensive line? Is it time to bail on Ryan Walters at Purdue? How much faith should we have in Luke Fickell at Wisconsin? Plus, a near full rebuild at Washington for Jedd Fisch and the most cringeworthy nickname of all-time for the star of Rutgers.
