The boys took to the road this week for some exploration of various locales - Week 12 chatter goes until about 34:00, at which point we dive into lifestyle discussions of Logan’s visit to The Swamp for LSU-Florida and Jason & Jordan’s Las Vegas golf excursion.由Jordan Shank

Week 11 gave us some vintage ACC Coastal shenaigans, including Miami losing an undefeated season to Georgia Tech for the 2nd consecutive year. Jason stayed up for the end of BYU-Utah and lived to tell the tale!由Jordan Shank

While it’s not the strongest schedule of the year, Week 11 is also not pounding us with bad out-of-conference matchups and there are still some decent contests to take in; bonus rememberance of some of our favorite ACC Network commercials.

We’re back to get grumpy about the recent time change and collect our thoughts on a somewhat disappointing (though still entertaining!) collection of results from Week 10; the coaching carousel remains quiet and it seems that several previously-endangered individuals are working their way towards survival.…

All remains mostly-quiet on the coaching carousel; fewer ranked-on-ranked games this week but still some interesting matchups on the board. Games picked = Ohio State @ Penn State, Oregon @ Michigan, Florida v Georgia, Louisville @ Clemson, and Pittsburgh @ SMU.由Jordan Shank

Join us as we discuss the happenings of Week 9, which saw evidence of some teams continuing to improve from week to week while others appear to be plateauing or even regressing - and perhaps some more examples of additional parity across the sport. Bonus home improvement/appliance discussion!由Jordan Shank

No updates on the coaching carousel but Week 9 features a fairly enticing slate of games including 5 ranked-on-ranked matchups which we of course have guessed against the spread for entertainment purposes only. Games picked = Notre Dame @ Navy, Illinois @ Oregon, Missouri @ Alabama, Texas @ Vanderbilt, and LSU @ Texas A&M.…

Week 8 gave us plenty to discuss but maybe not too much to read too deeply into; we’re starting to see some big-name programs fade from playoff discussion while others are putting impressive performances on film. Bonus Tony Bennett retirement musings!由Jordan Shank

We return from a weather-induced absence to revisit a very entertaining slate of games in Week 7 that included numerous overtime finishes and questionable clock management decisions. Bonus discourse regarding injury replays on TV and win probability charts!由Jordan Shank

Folks, this was a Blood Week - 7 ranked teams lost this past weekend, including 5 of the top-11 (and a very close call for a 6th school late Saturday night on the West Coast). Logan also enters the first copy of his Florida Head Coach Big Board into the record!由Jordan Shank

2-man operation to recall the happenings of Week 5 which included another disappointing loss by Ole Miss and a wild finish to the Georgia-Alabama matchup that lived up to (and probably exceeded) the hype.由Jordan Shank

Week 5 has yet to kick off and we’ve already got new (hypothetical) landing spots for some figures in the coaching world, UNLV loses their starting QB to an NIL dispute, and the board of games looks potentially fun! Games picked = Virginia Tech @ Miami, Oklahoma State @ Kansas State, Louisville @ Notre Dame, Georgia @ Alabama, and Illinois @ Penn S…

Week 4 gave us plenty to dissect including wins by our 3 favorite schools, a Friday night/Saturday morning contest being hailed by some as the game of the year, and mixed performances by top new QB prospects.由Jordan Shank

Week 4 is nearly upon us with a much more exciting slate of games to dive into, including 4 ranked-on-ranked matchups. Games picked = Illinois @ Nebraska, JMU @ UNC, USC @ Michigan, Utah @ Oklahoma State, and Tennessee @ Oklahoma.由Jordan Shank

We’re back with a casual time of discussion, mostly regarding the Army-Navy game, Bob Chesney to JMU, Bronco Mendenhall to New Mexico, and Logan’s current state of affairs as a Florida fan.由Jordan Shank

Conference championship games are in the books and with that, the College Football Playoff has been set but not without some controversy! We talk playoff selection/matchups, what to think of Florida State’s exclusion, and coaching carousel talk focusing on JMU.由Jordan Shank

Join us to turn the page from the regular season to the postseason, with more coaching carousel and new transfer portal discussion in the mix. Games picked = Oregon vs Washington, Oklahoma State vs Texas, Georgia vs Alabama, Louisville vs Florida State, and Michigan vs Iowa.由Jordan Shank

We have stumbled back from a wild holiday/rivalry weekend that saw nearly all favorites walk away victorious (including an Iron Bowl finish for the ages) as well as some hirings to close certain seats on the carousel. Bonus Thanksgiving cuisine discourse!由Jordan Shank

continue reading
With few interesting results (Auburn) and not much happening on the coaching carousel, we focus on the teams close to our heart, injuries, the Heisman race, and our mediocre picks from Week 12. Bonus betting and Thanksgiving conversation for those who stick around.由Jordan Shank

The coaching carousel continues to spin (allegedly, in some cases), College Gameday is headed to Harrisonburg, and despite 4 ranked-on-ranked games the overall board is somewhat underwhelming. Games picked = Utah @ Arizona, Georgia @ Tennessee, Illinois @ Iowa, Kansas State @ Kansas, and Washington @ Oregon State.…

In addition to some impressive individual performances across the board this weekend, we also got the unofficially official start of Silly Season as Texas A&M fires Jimbo Fisher and gets the coaching carousel truly fired up.由Jordan Shank

We have returned with another travel-imposed mega-episode in which we recap some golf in Florida, cover the action from Week 9 (including more sassy coach audio), update the Connor Stalions saga, and look ahead to Week 10. Upcoming games picked = Kansas State @ Texas, Missouri @ Georgia, Oklahoma @ Oklahoma State, Washington @ USC and LSU @ Alabama…

The stout on-paper we had for Week 4 did not disappoint (for the most part), with (mostly) better picks from the group as a whole to get us back on track moving forward this season. UVA is still winless but doing it in excited fashion, and while Ohio State came away from Notre Dame with a win some of us are still not fully buying the Ryan Day packa…

We’ve got a much more appealing schedule (on-paper) to look forward to this weekend; 6 ranked vs ranked matchups means we are making a bonus pick and it’s surprisingly not FSU/Clemson. Games picked = Colorado @ Oregon, UCLA @ Utah, Ole Miss @ Alabama, Oregon State @ Washington State, Ohio State @ Notre Dame, and Iowa @ Penn State.…

The poor on-paper schedule of Week 3 did provide some weirdness (looking at you, Oklahoma State and Iowa State) and another win for Colorado (though not by enough to cover). Is there cause for optimism in Gainesville? Which ACC school in Virginia will record their first win of the season? Bonus announcement of our first corporate investment into a …
