Decisions, Decisions…
Ty and Dan relive the best and worst decisions by their college football teams (and themselves) over the last year.
Who’s in the game?
Ty welcomes Matt Brown from the Extra Points newletter to the podcast and dissects Notre Dame’s claim that it will not be in the next college football video game. Who will be in the game and when do we realistically expect it will be released? Plus, more details on the looming NIL legislation, how TV rights affect college football, and lessons learned from a quirky 2020 season.
What is “NIL” and what will it mean for college football?
Ty chats with Andy Staples of The Athletic about the impact that new Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) rules will have on college football in the short- and long-terms. Will it be the end of the sport as we know it? Will the gap between the haves and have-nots widen? How does college football’s new one-time transfer rule factor in? And which Miami player would score a sponsorship with a fictitious Subaru dealership?
Spicy Hot Takes
Ty and Dan solicit outlandish college football takes and wild predictions from the Verballerhood, and grade them on the venerable Scoville Scale, otherwise used to measure the spiciness of peppers.
If Hell Freezes Over…
With the nation under the cold-hearted fist of Old Man Winter, Ty and Dan examine the unlikely circumstances under which powerhouses like Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State and Oklahoma could freeze up and lose their edge.
College Football Valentines
Ty and Dan write out their valentines and hand them out to the college football players, teams and ideas that gave them the most joy in 2020 and beyond.
College Football Permafrost Teams
Ty and Dan plunge deep into the college football earth and examine samples from its permafrost layer, comprised of programs that remain frozen in an underwhelming state.
