College Football with Sam

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, @BIG10_Quicktalk and I discuss our thoughts on the eventual expansion of the Big Ten conference. Which teams should the Big Ten add? We think Florida State is an absolute no-brainer, along with their ACC rival the Miami Hurricanes. Both Florida State Football and Miami Football are rich with resources, recruiting pipelines, and an upwar...

We welcome @BIG10_Quicktalk on Touchdown Talk to debate our Big Ten Power Rankings and give bold predictions for the 2024 College Football season. We will also discuss some of my subscribers' bold predictions and our opinions on inevitable conference realignment. Is Michigan Football, Ohio State Football, Penn State Football, or Oregon Football at the top of the Big Ten? Will Texas Football mi...

The Washington Huskies won the spring transfer portal window in the Big Ten. Washington head coach Jedd Fisch brought in the 9th-best transfer portal class with 26 total commits, with seven incoming 4-stars. Quarterback Will Rogers, running back Jonah Coleman, and cornerback Ephesians Prysock will be immediate contributors. I don't know if Washington Football is underrated entering 2024, but t...

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, DJ and I discuss whether Oregon, Penn State, Texas, and Utah are overrated or underrated teams entering College Football's 2024 season. We both expect this to be a down year in college football, and other college football analysts expect several new teams to break through and compete for a National Championship. Oregon and Penn Stat...

The spring transfer portal window has closed, and the Miami Hurricanes have emerged as a winner. Miami won the spring transfer portal cycle because they added several impact players at positions of strength and need, without losing any key players. Oregon State running back Damien Martinez, who rushed for 1,185 yards last year, and defensive tackle Simeon Barrow Jr, who recorded 3.5 sacks last yea...

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, DJ and I give a way-too-early preview of Michigan vs Ohio State. Ryan Day must beat Michigan this year, and with his team hosting the Wolverines, returning more production, and bringing in more key players, it is expected that Ohio State will beat Michigan this year. Both teams will have lethal defenses and should be a part of the 10 be...

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, DJ and I discuss whether Clemson, Georgia, Notre Dame, and Ole Miss are overrated or underrated teams entering College Football's 2024 season. We both expect this to be a down year in college football, and other college football analysts expect several new teams to break through and compete for a National Championship. Ole Miss and...

We welcome DJ on Touchdown Talk to discuss his favorite team and our favorite rivalry, Ohio State Football, and The Game. We will break down the two college football titans, Michigan Football and Ohio State Football, discuss their strengths and weaknesses, and preview their most important games for this upcoming season. Does Ryan Day need to win Ohio State a National Championship to call the seaso...

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, @CornCrazed and I give an early preview of the Nebraska vs Colorado game that will take place this season. This matchup will be critical for both teams, but we think there is far more pressure on Nebraska to win this matchup, especially given their humiliating 14-36 loss last year in Boulder. It is likely that this game will be a close,...

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, @CornCrazed and I discuss Nebraska Football from its depths to its peak. This talk was before the spring game, but I think it still has a ton of relevant and deep analysis concerning Matt Rhule's Nebraska Cornhuskers. How many wins does Nebraska need to call their 2024 season a success? How will the offense and defense be different...

Rutgers Football had a successful spring game and in my opinion, showcased why they can be one of the Big Ten's better teams this college football season. Gavin Wimsatt looked much better compared to last season and he clearly is the superior quarterback compared to Athan Kaliakmanis. Kyle Monangai behind this offensive line will wreck opposing rushing defenses and the receivers also showed ou...

The Oregon Ducks hosted their spring game yesterday, and the biggest takeaway by a mile is that Oregon Football will be one of the most physical teams in the Big Ten in 2024. I think Dan Lanning and Oregon can win it all this season because of their physicality, depth, and explosiveness on both offense and defense. Quarterback Dillon Gabriel looked poised and accurate and wide receiver Tez Johnson...

Nebraska's spring game was a massive success yesterday, with the White Team defeating the Red Team by a score of 25 to 21 and over 60,000 Cornhusker fans attending the event. What shocked me was how great the quarterback room looked, particularly Dylan Raiola and Heinrich Haarberg. They were accurate and aware the whole game and their offensive teammates expected well on their blocks, catches,...

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, @CornCrazed and I discuss what Deion Sanders is building with Colorado Football. Many college football fans, including several Nebraska Football fans on our channels, preach that Colorado is a dying program that will implode when Deion Sanders inevitably fails. But is this really the case? After all, while the Buffaloes have suffered ex...

Tonight we welcome @CornCrazed on Touchdown Talk to discuss his area of genius, Nebraska Football. CornCrazed and I will focus on previewing Nebraska's season, but also touch on our Big Ten predictions for this upcoming college football season, our thoughts on Colorado Football and whether they are imploding or growing, and Colorado's reborn rivalry with the Cornhuskers. Also, which Colleg...

Lincoln Riley and USC Football are some of the most interesting storylines this College Football season. Their question to compete for championships and adapt to the physical Big Ten are off to an encouraging head start based on their spring game performance. The defensive backs forced four interceptions from quarterbacks Riley Moss and Jayden Maiava, who had a good game despite their turnovers. T...

Michigan's spring game ended with a physical defensive stop by Team Maize, who beat Team Blue by a score of 17-7. Analyzing any spring game is tough without context, and even with context, data, and film study a spring game is simply a public practice. However, there were a few things that stuck out to me. Michigan Football is still a physical team that will be led by its ground attack and def...

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, Zachary Priehs and I debate whether Michigan and Penn State are National Championship contenders. I believe that the Wolverines and the Nittany Lions are National Championship contenders because of their capabilities on defense, balanced running back rooms with both power and home-run backs, and great strength and conditioning and assis...

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, Zachary Priehs and I discuss how much pressure we think Ryan Day is facing at Ohio State and whether we think he is on the hot seat. How much pressure is Ohio State facing entering 2024? Zachary and I think the Buckeyes are facing unprecedented pressure because of their losses to Michigan and failure to reach the National Championship g...

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, Zachary Priehs and I discuss whether or not Oregon, UCLA, USC, and Washington can function as Big Ten Football programs. The Big Ten conference is expanding to 18 teams this year with the addition of Oregon, UCLA, USC, and Washington. How will these teams perform in the short and long term in the Big Ten? We talk about all of this and m...

Ryan Walters enters his second year as the head coach of Purdue Football and I have mixed thoughts on his team entering the 2024 season. The Boilermakers are 96th in returning production, but they return key starters such as quarterback Hudson Card, offensive center Gus Hartwig, and free safety Dillon Thienemen, all while bringing in high-ceiling players like wide receiver CJ Smith and cornerback...

Tonight we welcome Zachary Priehs to discuss various College Football topics. We both want to take a deep dive into not just the Big Ten but specifically touch on Ryan Day's job security and the pressure he faces, Michigan and Penn State's status as National Title contenders, and how Oregon, UCLA, USC, and Washington adapt to the Big Ten in the short and long term. We will also touch on mu...

Who will win the Big Ten? Which Big Ten teams will exceed and fail to meet preseason expectations? What Big Ten Football teams should you pay attention to, and which ones are overrated? Today I gift you my 2024 Big Ten record predictions. These predictions, especially given the current spring transfer portal chaos, are subject to change. We talk about all of this and more in this episode of Colleg...

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, @JTSports and I discuss what positions Michigan Football needs to add players to from the transfer portal. The Michigan Wolverines are 128th in returning production entering the 2024 college football season and they have a new head coach in Sherrone Moore. JTSports and I agree that Michigan needs to pursue several good players in this u...

On this cut of Touchdown Talk with College Football with Sam, @JTSports I discuss whether or not Matt Rhule can bring Nebraska Football back to national prominence. We are both unsure how high Nebraska's ceiling is as a program, but we think that Rhule is the right hire for Nebraska and that they can at least compete for Big Ten Championships soon. Will they win a Big Ten or National Champions...
