New rankings dropped Tuesday night, so you know we had to jump in with some takes. Wayne's actually not that outraged, given his history in these types of shows. Should there be 5 SEC teams in the field? Committee says yes. Bad news for the ACC and potentially the Big 12 but there's still a lot of football left to be played over the next three weeks. Hartzell gets sappy about the G5 and what the committee gave us in the 20-25 bunch at the bottom of the polls. This is, after all, the same Tulane team that lost by 22 to UTSA but hey, nobody's perfect. Phil Steele joins the show for his usual 30-minute ride through the top-25. How does Phil feel about some of the biggest matchups on the card for this week? Plus, some rare Ohio State talk since this team has just been a chainsaw all season we haven't really talked about how they go about their business. Wayne saw it first-hand last weekend, what did he take away from seeing the #1 team in the land?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Virginia Tech has a new football coach and as luck would have it we got one of the ACC's best in Roddy Jones to help us unpack what it means to the fine folks in Blacksburg. How do we think this is going to go? Roddy breaks it down for us, plus we got our weekly takeaways (best thing, worst thing, thing that shocked us) from the weekend. Rodstra has been treading water lately with the picks but if he doesn't buck up and string together a couple of winning weeks on the way outta here we're going to finish below .500 (again). Early week edition of CSN is in your feed a little earlier than usual because Hartzell & Tripp have a day of community service planned ... so everyone's a winner, really.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

UCLA notched two double-digit neutral-site victories over Oklahoma and UNC - are the Bruins the best team in the country? Megan Gauer and Rob Joyce talk UCLA, some notable other happenings from the week (USC over NC State, how many steals from Hannah Hidalgo??, a super fun Fairfield-USF game in Vegas). They preview the weekend ahead with some big-time Saturday matchups in Detroit (Michigan-Notre Dame) and LA (USC-South Carolina) and they wrap the show by each picking an all-time Baylor team (45:15 mark) - whose is better?

It's Friday so you know what that means - Felder Friday is locked and loaded with a preview of what's coming up this weekend. The gang gets into some CFP rankings reaction; what it means for each conference, and a reminder to chill out with the hot takery because we still got three weeks left in the regular season (it's going to sort itself out, people). Felder Five (TM) is spicy as always, including some spirited debate on a big Saturday in the SEC: how many points is Ole Miss going to hang on a Florida team that looked like it quit last week, plus Oklahoma's defense against a one-dimensional Alabama offense, and oh yeah, pretty big game between the hedges with Texas visiting Georgia. 'That's my Dog' and 'Three for All' is a must-listen because the Doc is coming off an 0-3 week and Hartzell just went 3-0, so it's a fade-or-follow Friday between these two. Weekend is here, we made it fam!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Pretty busy show when you consider Wayne Cook and Stephen Hartzell are reacting almost immediately after the CFP rankings drop on Tuesday night. There's finally a G5 team in the poll (!) but somehow Tennessee is still ranked (?) so it's not all roses. There are takes, disagreements, and enthusiasm on both sides of the aisle from Wayne and Hartzell, but that's what we're here for, right? Phil Steele even offers his Playoff take before launching into a 30-minute run through the week 12 top-25 card. The end of the show includes some Gavin Newsom jokes and Wayne tells Hartzell he looks like a Lord of the Rings character (yes, really).See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Roddy Jones has a house full of sick kids (one of which you'll hear from), Hartzell has two boys who are out of school for Veteran's Day, and Tripp is ... missing ... for the first 30 minutes of the show. Once Tripp does arrive, a fight ensues over the Indiana/Penn State game and what may (or may not) have been said on the TV broadcast. There's plenty of ACC discussion, including Roddy's trip to Charlottesville to watch Wake ruin Virginia's dream season, plus thoughts on fraudulent Louisville and the fact that Boston College has officially quit (according to Hartzell). What does all of this mean for the ACC tiebreaker scenarios and the most likely combination of teams that are going to play in Charlotte in December? CFP predictions for tonight's rankings unveil, week 11 takeaways, and Rodstradamus' weekly selections are all included. Good stuff on the early week show!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Felder Friday edition of the show to get you ready for the week 11 slate and we got the whole crew (despite some health issues for Hartzell and Tripp), so the gang has assembled to talk ball and break down these games. Felder has some choice words (and expletives) about Indiana not being ranked #1 in the CFP. You're going to want to hear that plus the full Felder Five with other takes on Georgia/Miss State, Oregon at Iowa, and whether or not this is the week we finally put Missouri to bed for the season. That's my Dog returns with the biggest underdog swing in the history of the segment, and if Felder hits on this one we might have to shut it down forever because lawdamercy this is a reach. Tripp and Hartzell go head-to-head with the piiiiiicks to close the show which is the real reason you all are here, let's be realSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The season is four days old, and there are actual real-life games to discuss! Megan Gauer and Rob Joyce recap some of the notable results from the opening week, some good (NC State-Tennessee!) some ugly (Baylor-Duke). They also bounce around and find some things they liked, some things they disliked and give their now annual "opening week of the season hot takes". And then they wrap up by previewing some spicy games over the next week, including two top-15 matchups for UCLA.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You know you need Wayne Cook's CFP reaction in your life...and today you're going to get it. Hartzell & Cookie both drop some fresh out of the oven takes on what the committee gave us last night with the initial Playoff rankings. While it's nice that there's teams in the 20's that still have a path to the promised land, not having ANY G5 teams listed while a 3-loss Tennessee was occupying the last spot was - according to one of the guys - mildly insulting. Still, though, we press on. Plenty of reaction on the show today, sandwiched between a half hour of Phil Steele analysis of the week 11 card. Phil wants nothing to do with the CFP rankings because he'd rather watch MACtion, so if you need the Godfather in your life running through the top-25 games this weekend, well, we got you. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The entire CSN crew got absolutely hosed last weekend because we're all YouTube TV subscribers, and the group is still looking for answers for how to watch these college games. Roddy works for ESPN so you know he'll be ok. But what about Hartzell and Tripp (and you - the listener)?! Thankfully there's an app for your phone that solves this dilemma and - unlike ESPN Unlimited - is free! Plenty to unpack from the week 10 slate including Roddy's trip to SMU where we saw Miami's playoff hopes die. How well do you know your ACC tiebreakers, because Roddy is dialed in with what it's going to take to separate this logjam of teams tied for 2nd place in the standings. Initial set of CFP rankings drop later tonight, so how do the boys feel about who will be #1? Plus we have takeaways from this past weekend and some early Rodstradamus leans for the week 11 card to wrap the show.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Felder Fridays are usually a borderline off-the-rails production, but you tack on Halloween plus a trio of rad dads who are all prepping for a fun night with the family and you arrive at today's program. Lots going on with the episode today; Felder Five gets you ready for the week ten slate, Tripp and Hartzell go head-to-head with picks, 'That's my Dog' returns after some baaaad beats a week ago, plus some Halloween plans and costume reveals.

UCLA went on the road and lost by 50 over the weekend, so you know what that means. The moratorium is back, baby. There will be no Bruins football talk on the show today, unless it's to gush over their opponent from this past Saturday (Indiana) or the guy that Hartzell thinks would be a great fit to take the coaching reigns in Westwood (his initials are BK). Wayne gives us his thoughts on the head coaching search and who he wants to see take the gig. Phil Steele stops by for his normal 30-minute jaunt through the weekend card, including a couple of upsets that Phil likes to upset the apple cart on Saturday. Weekday edition of CSN is in the feed - join us!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Spicy show because Hartzell can't get his microphone to work and, well, it affected the rest of the show. Multiple disagreements today with the fellas, including - but not limited to - JMU playing on Tuesday night, which ACC teams are on fraud watch, and the always popular 'is Vanderbilt legit' discussion. Roddy Jones weighs in on what he saw first-hand with Miami over the weekend, plus is he finally ready to buy on Texas A&M as a championship contender? The coaching vacancy list continues to grow, and the guys pour one out for the Brian Kelly experience at LSU. Do ranked teams still go to Carter-Finley at night to die? Because if so, that's not good news for the Jackets on Saturday...which the guys discuss. Rodstradamus is coming off another rough week on the picks - so now is the time to bounce back and get some positive vibes heading into November, let's get it!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

HAPPY FALL Y'ALL! College Baseball is just around the corner, and we've got the reigning national champion head coach of LSU baseball, Jay Johnson, on Dugouts, Dumbbells and Dingers! David Kahn and Coach Johnson rehash LSU's 2025 run to the national title, including what he remembers from that frenzied regional and how that set the course for the Tigers to run the table in Omaha. The two discuss the various celebrations that LSU has had since their national championship win, including Jay HOUSING a pepperoni pizza after the victory, Jay's best memories of the 2025 team, what winning a national title at LSU means to him, and how entrenched he has become in this community. Jay also discusses his thoughts on Anthony Eyanson, Chase Shores and a whole host of other Tigers from the 2025 squad, and how he strategically used his off days in both Hoover and Omaha to set his team up for present and future success.Plus, how does the 2026 team look so far? Derek Curriel is the centerpiece, and he cashed in on the transfer portal again, so look for LSU to be as competitive as ever in 2026.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's a Felder Friday, everybody. You already know. Loaded weekend of games coming up so let's jump right in with the good stuff. Mike Barber from Cville Right Now joins the show to talk Virginia football ahead of the South's Oldest Rivalry at North Carolina this weekend. What does Mike attribute the UVA rise to? And what's he hearing about that 'other' school in the state and their head-coaching search? Felder is on one, as per usual, with his Felder Five. And Tripp looks to extend his lead over Hartzell in the picks segment at the end of the show.

For the third straight week the UCLA ban has been lifted on the show because, well, the Bruins are somehow 3-1 in the Big Ten and winners of three in a row. Because college football. Speaking on which, Wayne has some Heisman and head coaching takes, so preheat the over and turn the air fryer on because Cookie is about to - you guessed it - start cooking. Phil Steele joins the show to talk through the week 9 top-25 dance card, including a couple of surprising upsets and some MAC love from the Godfather himself.

Loaded show - nearly two hours of college football gas to get your week going - and yes, the whole gang has assembled. Roddy Jones has watched 8 straight quarters of Texas A&M; are they national-championship good? What about Roddy's alma mater who's 7-0 for the first time since the 1960s? Hartzell and Tripp get Roddy talking about Tech and Brent Key - who is, obviously, going to get some calls from schools who need a new head coach. Week Eight takeaways are spicy as always. Hartzell continues to push Vanderbilt football and has a Gunner Stockton analogy that must be heard to be believed. As the World Turns (TM) is back for another week because you-know-who keeps catching L's and Rodstradamus makes some picks to wrap the show. Fun show.

Week 8 slate is looking like it could be chaotic. Sixteen (!) ranked teams are on the road this weekend, and the table is set for what could be one of wackiest weekends of the season. And speaking of wacky ... we got a Felder Friday show lined up for you with all the fixin's. Special guest Radi Nabulsi from UGASports.com joins the show to talk Dawgs and help preview the massive game with Ole Miss coming up Saturday afternoon.

The UCLA ban is still lifted because the Bruins are hot. So, too, is that other B1G school in Los Angeles who also got right against another Michigan school over the weekend. Vibes are high; Hartzell is back from a three-day getaway to the mountains, Wayne's Bruins are winning, and hard to believe it but we're already past the midway point of the regular season. What did the guys think of Indiana's gutsy win in Eugene? And should James Franklin send UCLA a Christmas card for helping send him on his way with $50 mil in the bank a little sooner than expected? Phil Steele joins the show for nearly forty (!) minutes of discussion on the week 8 card, including every game in the top-25. Midweek edition of CSN is right here, right now just like your favorite Fatboy Slim song.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

High expectations, underwhelming results in big games and fan frustration led Penn State to move on from James Franklin. There may be a few other schools approaching that same situation. Reaction from the weekend that was, including Roddy's trip to College Station... are the Aggies contenders? Week-7 Takeaways, movement on Wagon Watch and Tripp debuts his new segment "As the World Turns... in Tallahassee, FL. Rodstradamus goes to the crystal ball and delivers a dozen picks to wrap things up.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Want to know why Felder has had the week from hell? Well ... did you watch what happened in Chapel Hill last weekend? We're still dealing with the fallout from UNC and no one is fielding more calls on the matter than our guy Felder. So, too, is our guest today Chip Patterson (CBS Sports, Cover 3 Podcast), who lives down the street from the smoldering tire fire that is UNC football but also covers the sport nationally for CBS. What does Chip think is going to happen with some of these big games on Saturday like Oregon/Indiana, Georgia/Auburn, Alabama/Missouri, and Red River? We also bring back the Felder Five, plus 'That's my Dog' and 'Three for All' picks when Tripp & Hartzell go head-to-head in the main event.

We're not not going to let Wayne talk about his alma mater because, well, it IS the biggest upset of the college football season. Cookie had a front-row seat on the sidelines of the Rose Bowl this past Saturday when UCLA did the thing, so Hartzell wanted to ask about how it all went down. How did Nico turn from the pumpkin into the prince? And how did Jerry Neuheisel draw all that wizardry up with just four days prep before Penn State came to town? Wayne has all the answers. You know who else has answers is our man Phil Steele who drop by for a solid 30+ minutes of week 7 game discussion. So many good ones on the card this week, you already know the guys are asking Phil about every game in the top-25. And finally, has Wayne hit send on the golf balls he owes Hartzell? You don't want the juice running on a dozen golf balls, best get that shipped out with the quickness.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's not just the ACC that gets covered in today's show, but let's just say it's ACC heavy. Roddy was in Chapel Hill over the weekend, he saw what everyone else did with Clemson's come-uppance and UNC's lack of, well, everything. Tough scene but hey, basketball season starts soon Tar Heel fans. What did Roddy make of the Miami/FSU showdown? We go back to the big screen for some film study and highlight what the Canes were doing so well (and who, specifically, they were doing it against for FSU) for you YouTube viewers out there. Outside the ACC there is some spirited debate on the state of the Big12 and SEC. Hartzell is still here to buy all of the Vanderbilt and Diego Pavia talk and he gets absolutely roasted for it. Rodstradamus has a massive 16-play card lined up for this weekend because he's finally above .500 on the season and feeling very good about what's coming up for week 7!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Week 6 is upon us, kids. Who better to get you set for the weekend than Felder and Hartzell - but no Tripp today because the Doc is OUT for the afternoon. We got the Felder Five (TM) plus Nicole Auerbach from NBC Sports joins the show to talk about the Big Ten. Fallout from the Penn State/Oregon thriller last weekend, plus where does James Franklin and Co. go from here? If OSU, Oregon, and Indiana are the top tier of B1G football, what does that second tier look like? And why aren't we talking about Maryland? Plenty to talk about with Nicole - including a Notre Dame question - before we move onto picks. Tripp sent his selections in audio form, so you're going to want to stick around and hear what the Doc has cooked up (even though he went 1-5 in college last week), because he drops BARS on the boys to close the show.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Week 6 picks for College Football are what you want, so that's what we deliver. Another loaded slate to breakdown with the best in the business... Phil Steele.

Just like Europe went on the road and won a Ryder Cup in hostile territory last weekend, there was some elite quarterback play on the road from a handful of guys who get praise on today's show. Dante Moore, Julian Sayin, Ty Simpson, and CJ Carr all had to get it done away from home - and just like Europe - they did the thing. Don't worry, this is not a golf show. Far from it. Wayne empties the notebook on his observations from the good quarterback play (and the bad - see Drew Allar), plus we get into the week 6 card with Phil Steele who gets choked up talking about Vanderbilt football. Yes, really. It's October, people! Fall is here! Let the football and the leaves wash over you! Bathe in it!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On the surface it's a simple question, but what does it really say about the ACC when two of your power brands are hooking up in a primetime game and instead you're getting passed over for Alabama versus ... wait for it ... Vanderbilt? Lots of reaction from the weekend that was with Roddy, Hartzell, and Tripp. The Doc is obviously still butt-hurt about his 'Noles losing in somewhat controversial fashion (atleast according to Tripp), plus plenty of other observations from the ACC (GT/Wake, VT/NC State, et al.). We dive into the SEC with Brad Crawford from CBS Sports to talk about the coaching vacancy in Fayetteville and some others which might be opening very soon in this league. Plus plenty of on-the-field thoughts on LSU/Ole Miss, Alabama/UGA, and what to do with Texas A&M. All that plus Rodstra taking a peek at the week 6 slate and giving us a baker's dozen of picks to close out the show.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You got twelve ranked teams hitting the road this weekend and there is a potential for Friday and Saturday to get off the rails. We got a lot to talk about on the show - including the Felder Five - where we dive into some of these monster games. Penn State hosting Oregon, Georgia taking on Alabama, and LSU at Ole Miss, just to name a few. All that AND the Ryder Cup going at the same time makes for a busy sports weekend and we're here for it. We got Zach Berry from AtoZSports in the house with us to talk about the heavy SEC slate and give us his perspective on Texas heading into their bye week with some momentum and the Ole Miss/LSU matchup in Oxford. Picks segment gets spicy because Tripp has some reckless takes and wants to go to head-to-head with Hartzell on this weekend's card. We're absolutely loaded for week 5, come ride with us!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Yeah there's some golf talk on the show today. Sorry not sorry. Wayne had to send Hartzell a dozen golf balls two years ago and the wager is back on the table for Bethpage which starts on Friday morning. There's also copious amounts of college football talk because Tuesday was a busy day for the news cycle; there's another P4 job opening (in Stillwater), and the Heisman race just got flipped on its head because John Mateer is going to miss a few weeks after hand surgery. The guys talk about all of that and then some...plus Phil Steele stops by for his normal run through the top-25 dance card for this week which might just be the best of the season so far. Lots of ranked teams on the road Saturday, who does Phil think is on upset alert? Come for the football talk, stay for the USA vs the Euros discussion at the end of the program!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

According to Roddy Jones the answer is emphatically yes that Miami is the best team in the Southeast. Hartzell says no ... and Tripp is just here to see a good fight. Does winning road games factor into this equation at all? Because if so Miami has yet to leave their backyard. That's got to count, right? A spirited debate ensues with the fellas. Plus Roddy's takeaways from the weekend in Oxford, talking ball with Lane Kiffin and where Ole Miss projects as a top-tier SEC team this season (we're about to learn because LSU is in town Saturday). Week 4 takeaways with contributions from the whole group, plus a lookahead to this weekend's massive card, including FSU on potential upset alert Friday night and some big boy football on Saturday in the B1G and SEC. Tripp asks Hartzell about Phish and micro-dosing. Yes, really.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Week 4 is upon us and don't let these folks fool you, we are NOT a quarter of the way through the college football season. Far from it. Plenty to talk about this week including the Felder Five (TM) which does not shy away from the big games. Felder is full of metaphors today - including why Georgia is like a bacon cheeseburger, and which college team has big front porch energy because they can't close at the end of the date. Tripp and Hartzell are back with another round of picks but the real star is our boy Felder who has given out back-to-back double digit underdogs who have won outright the last two weeks.

Hartzell has fled the pod for a night to see his beloved Phish in concert - yes the title of this episode has two song references in it.Phil Brame steps in to hear from Wayne Cook on the heels of the end of the Deshaun Foster era in Westwood while Brent Pry was also shown the door in Blacksburg. From there we thankfully have some fantastic week three games to review with Wayne before Phil Steele drops by with his view of the lines for week four. We close the pod with a look at the imbalance in conference schedules - and how it's not a new problem - before sneaking in a quick golf chat and get a vibes check from Wayne ahead of next week's Ryder Cup. Sincerest apologies to those of you who enjoy Phish, we're just here to give Hartzell a hard time.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Week three is upon us and we got some big boy football games on the docket. After a brief recap of NC State's win at Wake Forest on Thursday night (nice job, Pack) the fellas dive into the dance card for this weekend, including the Felder Five and some detailed analysis on UGA/UT, A&M/ND, and UF/LSU. For whatever reason Felder thinks we need to watch out for Purdue (as a 3-TD underdog) against USC ... and also Wisconsin (as a 3-TD underdog) going on the road to Alabama. What is this man seeing? Is he riding high off his USF upset call over Florida last week? Or does Felder actually believe in these massive Big Ten underdogs to shock the world? Hartzell and Tripp trade picks in the 3-for-all after both going 2-1 last week. It's Friday and we're excited about the weekend. Join us for 90 minutes of football talk to start this party off right.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Look, the Bruins are 0-2 and in times like these you find out who your real friends are. Hartzell sits Wayne down to let him know he's in a nest in a tree of trust and CSN is a safe place. There are no Dan Mullen's or Kyle Whittingham's here. You can trust this place. So after a brief - but necessary - therapy session, the fellas get into talking about real, actual college football with teams that aren't 0-2. Phil Steele joins the show as he always does to run through the week 3 card, including a lot of road dogs that Phil likes this weekend. If you've never heard Wayne use profanity, this is the show for you. We love you buddy, and together we're going to get through this!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

ACC had a pretty dicey week 2 at the office, and we're going to talk about it. Roddy Jones knows the league better than most, so what did he make of SMU, Va Tech, Duke, and Clemson from the weekend? Tripp is back with another dose of 'best thing/worst thing/thing that shocked you' from the weekend and the fellas go coast-to-coast with some reactions from these games. What does Roddy think of Clemson's lackluster effort against Troy and what does it mean for this weekend when the Tigers head down I-85 to take on his alma mater? Rodstradamus is still above .500 on the season with picks so we continue to ride with the soothsayer on some early week 3 picks. Did you know Hartzell was an Ugg guy?

You guys already know the drill by now; on Fridays, we bring in Felder to talk ball alongside Hartzell and the Doc. No guest today because we got beaucoup games to break down and talk through. The Felder Five is loaded, plus Hartzell has some 'and-1' games that not enough people are talking about. Picks segment gets spicy because the so-called Lock Doctor either can't get his prescriptions filled or maybe the lock has been broken. Either way, the big fella needs to get back on track after a rough opening week of games. Hartzell is sitting pretty after a 3-0 start ATS but he's doubling down on his alma mater in front of a huge national TV audience tonight. Week two starts TONIGHT folks let's get right with some Friday CSN!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Running through another busy slate of College Football games here on the Week-2 edition of The Phil Steele Show. We get Phil's takes on whether or not some of these under-performing teams in Week-1 can cover in Week-2 (looking at you Clemson and Texas)... can Ole Miss get revenge in Lexington... rivalry renewed between KU and Mizzou... and of course Phil's Top-3 Plays of the Week.

Wayne's alma mater lost 43-10 last Saturday so we all know why he's cranky. But the real story is how well Devon Dampier played - so we ask Wayne to hand out some grades from notable week 1 QB performances and Professor Cook hands out some pretty lofty grades all things considered. Phil Steele swings by for his run-through of the week 2 card, including the real main event on Friday night between Louisville and JMU. Wayne and Hartzell talk Alabama, Michigan, and Oklahoma on the way out the door. Is all cheating equal in college football? Wayne says yes. Hartzell disagrees. And so it goes.

We all saw the same thing Monday night. UNC is down bad. Let's move on, no need to beat that into the ground for the full show. What did Roddy think about LSU's win at Clemson? Texas' slow start at the 'Shoe? Notre Dame going down in a close game in South Florida? We got a lot to get to and not a ton of time (because Hartzell actually works for a living ... supposedly). Tripp gets his victory lap because the Noles are back? People are saying. Some of the West coast, late-night QB play from Saturday night was really good and you might have missed it if you didn't stay up. And finally, Rodstradamus had a winning weekend so let's get greedy and see if we can go back-to-back with itSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
