Alex Kirshner of Split Zone Duo makes his usual summer return to the podcast. He chats with Justin about a wide range of college football topics, starting with the hot seat chatter in the SEC and how timing is everything when it comes to rebuilds.

Alex gives his honest take on the Tigers’ 2024 roster, including what he feels about the decision to roll with Payton Thorne at quarterback for one more season. The guys also talk about Ole Miss and Missouri’s chances of really making an impact in the league this fall, what could be coming up in a post-House settlement for the NCAA and why the new-look ACC isn’t set up for success.

The episode ends with Alex sharing his College Football 25 dynasty mode plans and why it’s OK to be ruthless with roster management in sports video games.
