#1 Alabama and #2 Miami both went down on the same weekend, but both are still in the playoff picture. We have a strong slate of power 5 conference championship games, all featuring top 12 teams, but the craziest news of the week may have come from Tennessee and their coaching search. Cullen and Tim break down the Tennessee/Schiano debacle and preview the conference championship games in this week...

The Turnover Chain strikes again! We won't say 'The U' is back, but they're certainly relevant. Weeks ago we said that we didn't trust Georgia and Notre Dame because they were too one dimensional, that turned out to bite both of them in the end. Could we get two teams from one conference in the college football playoff?  Could a two loss team make the playoff for the first time?  We tackle all thi...

What a weekend! As a Buckeye fan, Cullen is still recovering. There were upsets, comebacks, coach firings, and we even got our first college football playoff ranking. This week Tim and Cullen discuss all the big issues including the firing of Jim McElwain, Iowa State's rise, Notre Dame's dominance, and this week's games including Oklahoma/Oklahoma State and Clemson/NC State. 

Madness, madness I tell you! Four teams that were in the top 10, Clemson, Washington, Washington State, and Auburn, all lost in the same weekend. Others, like USC and Oklahoma, were pushed to the brink but ultimately survived. College football is awesome for this reason; anyone can lose on any given day. Join us as we rummage through the carnage and discuss our biggest surprises of the weekend. Pl...

We are now halfway into the season! Some teams have looked as good as expected (e.g. Alabama), some of have been surprisingly good (Georgia and TCU), and others have been disappointing (what happened to Florida State?!). In this episode we'll pass out our midterm college football grades and project who will have an 'A' at the end of the season. We will also spend some time discussing the scandal t...

After a week off, Tim and Cullen are back in action. The guys start off by giving a gospel based perspective on the national anthem protests in the NFL. Are the players disrespecting the flag, or exercising their rights? Listen in to hear a slightly different take on this polarizing topic. On the football front, we discuss the most impressive teams from last weeks games and list our playoff conten...

Mississippi State looked impressive, and so did Clemson. Stanford? Not so much. 25% of the college football regular season is behind us (can you believe it?), and we're started to get a clearer picture about some of the contenders. For others, like USC and Michigan, they've shown flashes of brilliance but have been quite inconsistent so maybe this week will bring some clarity. Tim and Cullen discu...

Oh the shame! Cullen was 0-4 and Tim was 1-3 on game picks last week. Ouch! We're going to take a week off from picking games because clearly we have no idea what we're doing. This week we discuss which players and teams look anointed (like the Clemson defense), and which ones look like they've lost the anointing (cue the Ohio State fight song). Plus, we dive into the letter sent to Texas A&M coac...

It's week two of the college football season, also known as 'overreaction week'! It's only been one game, but of course we already know Alabama is unbeatable, Kevin Sumlin is toast, and Florida State might as well call it quits. Why bother playing the rest of the season! In this episode, Tim and Cullen break down the biggest stories from week one, update their playoff predictions, and make picks f...

Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, and Washington are in. Penn State is out. Do you agree with the college football playoff committee? Is it fair that B1G champion Penn State was left out in favor of one team with a weak non-conference schedule (Washington) and another team they beat head to head (Ohio State)? Join Tim and Cullen as they break down the final CFP ranking and the semifinal games. Does Wa...

Cullen and Tim break down the epic game between Michigan and Ohio State, including some criticism of Coach Harbaugh and his post game antics. Were his comments justified? We also discuss some of the in-game coaching decisions and the controversial 4th and 1 play in overtime. However, not all of the action this week was on the field as Texas and LSU made major coaching decisions. The guys discuss t...
