When you think about it, having the ball for 7 minutes and not crossing the 50 is kind of impressive. Anyway, conference races are heating up across college football, Josh Allen goes monster mode, the Pels and Mavs have something to celebrate, and Google and Disney finally work things out.

Some weeks you get to just kick up your feet and watch other fan bases suffer the joys of fandom. This was one of those weeks. Oh, my mic disconnected at some point so that's why it sounds that way.

Insert that Danny Glover line from Lethal Weapon here. Bama survives, A&M thrives, Lane jives, I once met a man from St. Ives... anyway, LSU kicks Brian Kelly to the curb, Vandy keeps on winning, we feel bad for State, we love what Willie Fritz is doing in Houston, TD is actually happy after a Ravens game, the NBA tips off and then we find out about some other tip offs, and the World Series is...

Things we talk about this week: the Tide lighting up the Vols, UGA beating up Ole Miss, Vandy smacking around LSU, a Bad Carson Beck sighting, holy hell UAB actually won, bye bye Billy, we wonder who's next?

Surprise! A little Tuesday podcastin' coming at you. Anyway, Bama, Hoosiers, Texas, Georgia, USC = good. Penn State (bye bye James Franklin), SEC refs, Auburn's second half offense = bad. The American is almost as fun as the Big 12, Ohio State is probably the best team in the country, next week's schedule is a banger, and UAB finally got rid of Trent Dilfer. NFL, Aces dynasty, MLB playoffs, too. T...

Down go the mighty Commodores... no, seriously. Also, what in the world is happening at Penn State? Is Texas actually good? Maybe this is actually Miami's year? Can I frame another topic in the form of a question? I could, but I won't. We talk more college ball, MLB playoffs, and WNBA finals, too. TD has pretty much given up on the Ravens. Greg's Cowboys get a win, and the NFL has a sneaky good we...

Yet another fantastic weekend of football, highlighted by the Tide's win in Athens. We also discuss yet another Jame Franklin flop, Ole Miss' big win over LSU, 5-0 Vandy, and a wild Friday night that saw Virginia upset Florida State, and Arizona State and Houston comeback wins. TD also laments what is looking like a disastrous season for the Ravens, and we get Greg's live reactions to the Cowboys'...

It was a wonderful weekend of football, and there ain't much better than that. Some things we cover: Ryan Williams reintroducing himself, Georgia breaking Vol hearts, A&M stealing one in South Bend, whatever the hell that was between Florida and LSU, Georgia Tech's big win, and a whole lot more.

This week we look at the Big Ten - is it just a race between Ohio State, Penn State, and Oregon?

A day late, but not a dollar short. This week we cover the NBA Finals, Women's College World Series, NCAA Baseball regionals, some HUGE news for Bama hoops, possible CFP changes, a trailer for CFB '26, and more. NOTE: There's some weird audio stuff on Greg's end a couple of times in the first 10 minutes or so, but we figured it out and the rest of the episode is crystal clear. Want some  Taki...

Well hey y'all, been awhile ain't it?

A day late but got it out. We talk Final Fourses, including UConn's dominant run to their 12th women's title, and the exciting men's semifinals. We also previewed the men's title game, because we recorded on Sunday night... spoiler: Greg's florida prediction held true. There's also some Bama transfer portal talk, and other stuff, too.

A disappointing end to an otherwise fantastic Alabama hoops season, for both the men and women. There were records and hearts broken this week for the kids in crimson, but we are in a golden age of Alabama basketball. Elsewhere, the men's Final Four is all chalk, and the women's side is the same. There's also some talk of the Frozen Four, MLB opening weekend, NCAA coaching moves and NFL offseason...

Whole lotta hoops talk this week, of course. The Tide is back in the Sweet 16, a lack of chaos this weekend should lead to some excellent basketball next weekend, and how bad are our brackets?
