College Sports Now

The most popular 'Now Spinning' segment we do every year returns for the Grammy's this weekend; Norlander attempts to 'spot the fake' in the nominees this year - and Hartzell has the help of AI, unlike in season's past - so you have that to look forward to at the end of the show. The hoops portion of today's program is loaded as we recap boots-on-the-ground takeaways from Norlander's trips to Provo & Nashville earlier this week. Is Nebraska better than we all thought even though they lost at Michigan? What about the rest of the B1G including a Purdue team that's suddenly dropped 3 in a row? Hartzell asks the tough questions about Saint Louis not getting enough love from Norlander and the rest of the national media, and why we need to embrace some A-10 basketball this Friday night! Full weekend preview is in the offing, including the Blitz making it's debut on the hardwood this season - starting at 1 PM ET on Saturday we'll bounce around with live whiparound coverage of all these games, available exclusively on the Varsity Network app & YouTube.

If you weren't locked into the college basketball on Saturday you really missed out. Three different freshmen went off for 40+ points, in total there were seven diaper dandies that dropped 30+, and oh by the way the actual games were pretty damned good too. Matt Norlander spent the weekend in Utah hitting the slopes and watching the AJ Dybantsa show, he's got boots on the ground for Monday night's marquee matchup with Arizona visiting BYU. So full recap of everything that went down on Saturday - including a wellness check on Hartzell who is snowed in with a couple inches of sleet in the Piedmont! Some brief discussion on the Monday night card which features Duke hosting Louisville in the appetizer. Tuesday night is loaded too with not one but TWO 20-0 teams taking the floor. And in 'Now Spinning' some words on the Goose vs Geese debate which has really broken contain after the SNL performance over the weekend. Lots to get to and just one football game left on the schedule so what's your excuse? Exactly, you don't have one.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Megan is back and better than ever and we've got GAMES to discuss. Another crazy Thursday with two top-20 games going to overtime in Norman and College Park, plus everything else that happened throughout Wednesday and Thursday. Then on Sunday there's (barring weather) a top-5 SEC clash in Columbia between South Carolina and still-undefeated Vanderbilt. Alaina Morris of Vandy 24/7 jumps on to talk Commodores.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Props to the mighty Miami U RedHawks who are 20-0 on the season and we got Matt Norlander dropping bars on today's show about just how big of a deal that actually is. The list of recent mid-majors to get to that mark are few and far between, and Norlander talks about why we all need to be locked in on what's going down in the MAC. What about the other two undefeated teams in D1? Let's bring in Evan Miyakawa to brag about his website and break down what the analytics say about the teams at the top of his rankings. How many teams does Evan have as national championship contenders - and why that answer might surprise you. Hartzell and Norlander wrap the show with some brief weekend lookahead to the top games on deck, plus why is Norlander wearing a Dispatch show that's almost 15 years old?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

That's right, folks...this is our last college football show for awhile. Hartzell needs a break (besides, he's got hoops shows dropping twice a week on this here feed), but don't worry because Roddy and Wayne bring the gas. Natty takes and reaction from what we all saw on Monday night, plus a whole lot more. Including - but limited to - Indiana's historic build, the thin margins that decided the game, whether or not Carson Beck is to blame, and some pretty good stories from behind-the-scenes at ESPN all weekend with Roddy. After a solid 40 minutes of Indiana/Miami talk, the conversation shifts towards the future of college football - and not just what 2026-27 will bring. Are these player contracts going to continue to swell, or is market correction coming? What about the Darian Mensah situation at Duke? And do the guys all agree that the B1G is the best football league in the country now that it's been three in a row? A spirited show to bookend the football season, because it's not goodbye forever, it's just so long for now.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Indiana 27 Miami 21 ... and just like that ... football season is over, folks. We got Michael Felder with us to break down his takes on the National Championship game and there are many. Should Indiana have scored more than they did? What about Carson Beck's late pick? How do we feel about how Cristobal's game management and decision-making? Tripp is back from his stomach bug and has some opinions, and for the most part these are FSU-free opinions. Is Indiana built to last? Where does Cignetti rank today in the pantheon of active college football coaches? And yes, some Don Fischer audio for you die-hards who need to hear from the legendary voice of IU. There's a lot to get to, we pack it all into a 70-minute show. Enjoy because football podcasts are about disappear from this feed for a few months!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Special MLK Day edition of CSN recapping the basketball weekend as only we can. Matt Norlander lets it out on his Bears dropping an OT thriller on Sunday night (it's not your fault) and then the hoops talk picks up. What a weekend in the SEC with Florida winning at Vanderbilt and Kentucky storming back - again - to beat Tennessee on Rocky Top. Did the 'Cats save their season with a pair of come--from-behind wins last week? And is Florida now the team to beat in the league? Any how about Norlander not even acknowledging Hartzell's text on Saturday afternoon. Rude. From the mighty SEC to the Big 12, B1G, ACC, and much more...the guys touch on everything you probably missed from the weekend because you were locked in on NFL playoffs and God knows what else. Lock in with the fellas because college football season is over, folks. Indiana is about to B2A in South Florida tonight, time to get your mind right on the college hoops and we got you covered here on CSNSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We adjust on the fly! Megan felt under the weather so Rob had to largely fly solo to talk about a hectic, busy Thursday with a ton of top-25 games. But he's not entirely alone! USA Today's Mitchell Northam jumps on to talk some national big-picture things, then South Carolina beat writer Lulu Kesin of the Greenville News joins the show to go in-depth on South Carolina's victory over Texas and the Gamecocks in general.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There's a lot of these floating around out there, but this is the last one you're going to need. Michael Felder and Stephen Hartzell empty the clip on Monday's natty, complete with a heavy dose of 'what it will take' for the underdog Miami to shock the world. Felder Five is loaded, as per usual, with some key points of emphasis ahead of the big game; can Mark Fletcher keep doing what he's been doing through the first three games on the ground? What about all of those single-digit studs along the Miami defense, and are they going to be able to disrupt the Heisman Trophy winner? Which if Indiana's pass-catchers are going to emerge as the ultimate weapon against a Miami secondary that can be got? Loads to get into, and the fellas do it for the final time ahead of toe meets leather down in South Florida.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Not sure what Wayne ate for breakfast today, but he came out of the gates on an absolute heater. We're talking Fernando Mendoza in the CFP type of heater. Just straight flames. In addition to the semifinal reaction and the obvious lookahead to Monday night's national championship, there are rants about the death of the SEC, capitalism, the over-value of players in the portal, and - you guessed it - what Bob Chesney is doing to re-build the roster in Westwood. Thankfully Phil Steele joins the show to talk some sense into this program with some balanced perspective and opinions on what's coming up next week at Hard Rock. Who does Phil like to win the game, and how does he feel about the over/under? You're going to want to stick around for those picks. Would Miami or Bloomington be a better place to be if you're an Indiana fan next Monday night? Hartzell has a take which, surprisingly, Wayne disagrees with vehemently. And if all that's not enough, there are two special guests who join the show with some natty predictions. An all-timer from our boy Wayne, a real tour-de-force performance for the former QB.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Our man Roddy Jones had boots on the ground for both BOTH CFP Semifinals last week so we had to bring him in and let the man cook on what he saw in Glendale & Atlanta. Tripp Hurd is back from a nasty stomach bug that had him sidelined for almost a full week, so the Doc is back and giving takes on what he expects to see with our Indiana vs Miami matchup for the whole enchilada. Hartzell has opinions (obviously) but the fellas look back before they look forward; How did Miami get it done against Ole Miss, and why is the Carson Beck narrative so complicated? What happens if the Canes catch one or two of the four (!) dropped INTs that Trinidad Chambliss offered? And should we be worried about Bane and Mesidor's reliance on oxygen and taking breaks late in that Fiesta Bowl win? As far as Indiana is concerned, it's obvious from the Oregon game that the Hoosiers are an absolute wagon, so what will it take for the U to slow them down in the Natty? Can they? Will they? The guys have a consensus on the game even though the paths to get there are all different. Just a few more college football shows left in the tank, kids. Turn us up and get your mind right for Monday night!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There's just one college football game left on the calendar and Hartzell is very confident how that one is going to play out next week. Time to turn the page and start talking some college hoops with our guy Matt Norlander from CBS Sports and the Eye on College Basketball podcast. We're two or three weeks into the conference campaign and Norlander is of the belief this is one of the best college basketball seasons we've had in recent memory? Of course we need to know what that is. The depth at the top of the sport, for one, but also the brands of these programs who are at the top of the rankings. Five undefeateds remain, including a couple of surprises (here's looking at you, Nebraska & Vanderbilt), but there's plenty of blue bloods lurking with just one or two losses. Throw in the number of talented freshmen who are balling every night (except for Darryn Peterson whose legs hurt, allegedly), and you've got one of the deeper NBA Draft classes as well. Who's the best conference in America? Who are some of the most disappointing teams - and leagues - at this point in the season? And how many games has Hartzell *actually* watched this year? Lots to get to, first college basketball show of the season, we're so back folks!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In a week filled with upsets, some pleasant surprises have emerged out of the pack - and Rob isn't afraid to admit he was wrong on teams like Ole Miss and Ohio State. He and Megan also recap another busy Thursday around the country, put Iowa State's loss on Wednesday into (recent) historical perspective and then preview a hectic weekend (that's a theme here the rest of the way). They wrap the show with one last all-time program draft, and they make it a mega-draft with 20 UConn players (10 per team).See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You read that correctly, a special edition of Felder Friday because we have a CFP Semifinal tonight and we gotta give the people what they need before toe meets leather. Michael Felder and Stephen Hartzell are joined by CBS Sports' Chip Patterson to help break down both of these semis coming up, plus who does Chip think is going to move on to the main event down in South Florida on January 19th? We get some insight from Chip, including his highest rated 'LOCK' of the semifinal round, for those of us who keep tabs on that sort of activity. Felder is back with another 'That's my Dog' after his Alabama pick crashed and burned last time out. We got three college football games left, people. Let's get ready to run through the finish line as we get ready for some CFP action on a weeknight!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Playoff talk continues as we head West to check in with our resident quarterback and silver fox Wayne Cook. How did Wayne feel about the Rose Bowl beat down (he had boots on the ground in Pasadena), plus who can give Indiana a game and what will it take for Oregon to hang around against a team that's already beaten them once this season (hint: perfection from the Ducks). Phil Steele joins the program to talk about how he sees the semifinals playing out, plus a look ahead to how the 2026 magazine is shaping up and how he would feel if his daughter brought Fernando Mendoza home (no, really). Don't sleep on the magic carpet ride that has been Ole Miss the last two weeks, can they do it again as underdogs against the U? The guys are ... skeptical. Hartzell slips in some Gavin Newsom jokes to rile up his base because we are so back, baby. Midweek edition of CSN coming at you!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Longtime listeners of the show will recall that there was some disagreement between Hartzell and the rest of the CSN crew on a certain Rose Bowl prediction that came true in a big way on January 1st. There was also a take from a few weeks ago by one Roddy Jones about Miami's ability to go on a run in the Playoff, if you'll recall. So today's show - while it is a full CFP Quarterfinal recap - is also a bit of a victory lap for our two hosts who are celebrating W's of a different kind. Hartzell and Roddy run through the four games that were, and look ahead to the two semifinals that are coming up later this week. No Tripp today because he's at home dealing with a stomach bug - but no worries we got Rodstradamus handing out some winners at the end of the show!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Women's basketball rang in calendar year 2026 by playing approximately 2,026 close/intriguing games on Thursday alone. Rob Joyce and Megan Gauer try to make sense of it all, from Kentucky's late winner in Baton Rouge to Georgia Tech's upset of Notre Dame and everything in between. Plus a preview of all the weekend's action (hint: lots of good Big Ten games) and then we end with our penultimate all-time program draft with Tennessee.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Last show of the year! We got the whole gang - Roddy, Wayne, Felder, and Hartzell - together to break down these CFP quarterfinal games (which start on Wednesday night, by the way). After about 15 minutes of coach talk dedicated to the latest Michigan Man (TM) and what to expect in Ann Arbor, the guys jump into the quartet of CFP games that await us. Does Roddy still think Miami is the most dangerous team in the playoff? Which quarterback in Miami/OSU are we more concerned about staying upright and why should Buckeyes fans be worried about the Cotton Bowl? Can Oregon's defense get it together against Texas Tech in the Orange? Or did they just look that bad on defense because they didn't respect JMU last week? Hartzell has a hot take on the Rose Bowl that everyone else vehemently disagrees with. Felder is riding with Alabama again after calling the upset last week against Oklahoma. And finally, does anyone have faith that Ole Miss can shock the Dawgs in New Orleans? There's a consensus on this game that probably won't surprise you. Is 5'8" almost 5'10" ... and does it really matter? Last CSN of 2025 coming in hot, let's make it count!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A look back at the first four CFP games (Bama erasing a 17-0 deficit in Norman, Miami's defense getting after A&M, Oregon and Ole Miss taking care of business) and also a peek at what's coming ahead in the next round.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On the final Gauer Hour of 2025, Rob and Megan recap a fairly quiet week across the sport, but find reasons for optimism in Durham. Then they'll preview the final weekend before the sport shuts down for Christmas week - it feels like we'll learn a lot about Stanford, Oregon, and some Big 12 teams with gaudy records facing the top of the league. Then we close by handing out some Christmas gifts, and draft our all-time Stanford teams.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

One week to go until Christmas, but CFP starts in less than 48 hours so let's round up the rest of the CSN gang and get some analysis. Wayne Cook joins the show from So Cal, Felder checks in from his home office, and Hartzell & Tripp are riding along for the good vibes. Phil Steele makes his weekly appearance to break down the four playoff games (plus a little FCS playoff action as well), and as usual Phil might be the only one on the show seeing things clearly. Felder is triggered by some comments Pete Golding had on Wednesday at the podium about some of his players living in the same country club that he lives in. Hartzell heard the same audio but translated it very differently, and you already know how Wayne feels about the modern student-athlete. Once the show gets back on track there is actual football talk. Felder picks a massive upset - which is something he's been doing with aplomb all season on this show. Can he stay hot in the CFP? Tripp gives his highest rated play of the weekend. And Hartzell doubles down on his Dukes. Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, and let's get ready to enjoy these games!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We are nine days out from Christmas ... but we're breaking down ball today, kids. Hartzell got his hot yoga flow in early, Lock Dizzy is in the house, and there's a real expert - Roddy Jones - with us to break down these first round games. There's four CFP games this weekend, we hit on all of them - with some visual aids for you YouTubers thanks to Roddy breaking down film. Can Oklahoma do the thing again against Alabama on Friday night (the thing is get outgained and outplayed but force turnovers and short fields and win ugly). Who handles business in the coin-flip game between Miami and Texas A&M? Roddy calls for an upset in College Station but agrees it could go either way. And finally, do either of the G5 participants have a chance on the road Saturday? Experts will tell you no, but Hartzell is no expert. He lays out his path for a JMU upset in Eugene - knowing full well just how unlikely it is - but makes a reasonable case for the anatomy of what an upset would look like. Tulane has no chance in hell of doing anything against Ole Miss and the 45-10 regular season meeting back in September should be reason enough. Should Hartzell be drug tested for his takes? What about Lock Dizzle who can't help himself with the bad FSU takes? We're back with part two on Thursday with Wayne & Felder ... enjoy!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Iowa State stole the show on an otherwise quiet week with a Cy-Hawk rivalry win over Iowa - how high is the Cyclones' ceiling? Rob Joyce and Megan Gauer discuss that, other happenings from the week (can someone figure out K-State?), and preview a week to come that is light in quantity, but has some high quality games, plus a couple of sleepers (watch out Notre Dame and Duke). Then they end by picking some all-time South Carolina teams - you tell us whose is better?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The bracket is set. Notre Dame is at home working on their golf game, but we got first-round games coming up in 10 days so it's time to assemble the whole gang and talk ball. The CSN dream team is here - Roddy Jones, Wayne Cook, Michael Felder, with Hartzell playing traffic cop and steering the ship. What was it like on the ESPN set on Sunday when the dominos started to fall? Roddy takes us behind the curtain on how all the drama unfolded in real time. What do the guys think about the Miami & Alabama inclusion, while the golden-domers get left out? Who are the most dangerous teams in the field? Who is underrated? Who is overrated? All of that PLUS some bigtime discussion on the coaching moves that have gone down over the last two weeks, like - for example - is the Matt Campbell thing really going to work out? Wayne is about to meet Bob Chesney at the introductory press conference at UCLA, which means the moratorium has been lifted - at least for now. CSN mega-show coming at you!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We're fighting the elements. Megan is in Europe, Rob's kid is home because it rained in North Carolina overnight and school is closed. No matter, they recap the ACC/SEC Challenge, talk about the NET and what tweaks (if any) need to be made to it, run through some surprises (good and bad) so far this season, and preview a light week to come. Then they wrap with their latest all-time team draft by selecting Notre Dame players.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Last real weekend of college football, at least when it comes to meaningful games that are going to affect you-know-what coming down the line here in a matter of weeks. It's Championship weekend, we got NINE conference championship games going down on Friday and Saturday and then we get to hand out some hardware and make snow angels in the confetti. Felder is breaking down his top storylines of the weekend with the Felder Five (TM), Tripp is out here trying to re-organize intercollegiate athletics because, well, we're not really sure, and Hartzell is trying to stop the bleeding in the picks segment and find a winning weekend. It all comes down to this, the reason why you go through two-a-days in the summer, the picks champion will be crowned after the conclusion of this weekend's games. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There are nine FBS football games on the docket this week as conference championship games crank up on Friday and Saturday, so we might as well bring on our man Phil Steele (who's already in 2026 magazine mode. Yes, really) to run though his leans and selections for each of these games. The CFP committee rolled out their penultimate set of rankings on Tuesday night, so how about Hartzell & Wayne react to them live so you can wrap your head around all of these scenarios on Wednesday? The teams ranked 9-12 are going to be sweating it out on Sunday if BYU pulls the upset against Texas Tech. Is Alabama safe no matter what happens against Georgia? And how can the 10-2 Irish get in over the same 10-2 team that beat them head-to-head for (potentially) the final at-large spot? Lots to digest, and still one more weekend of games to get though before the 12-team CFP is set. Join us, won't you?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Absolutely jam-packed show on deck for you today, led by the incomparable Roddy Jones who wears many hats but has his ACC cap on for todays discussion on - in addition to many other things - how we got to Duke in the ACCCG & what to do about the Canes in the CFP. You want to talk about all the coach movement? We got you covered. Curious how Roddy feels about the Committee's performance through the first few weeks of polling? We got that too. Rivalry week reaction and a lookahead to the Championship games on deck Friday & Saturday? Obviously. Lots to get to in a loaded nearly 2-hour CSN that spans the college football landscape. And yes, we even let Tripp get a few words in. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's the day after Thanksgiving and the fellas are full - of food, beverages, and football takes. After a turkey day recap, the guys get down to the rivalry week analysis, the real reason you're all here. Felder Five covers Egg Bowl, Clean-old-Fashioned Hate, what to do with Miami/Pitt, plus The Game and A&M at Texas. Absolutely loaded card from our boy Felder who's not shying away from the big games. Hartzell and Phil Steele go one-on-one with all of the games on the top-25 for a solid 30 minutes, then we're back with piiiicks and 'That's My Dog', including a couple of bonus plays from Felder who's in a good mood today. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving holiday, be safe traveling this weekend and enjoy these games!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Week 14 - Thanksgiving Day Edition of the Phil Steele is in your feed and ready for consumption. Phil Steele gives his picks and analysis on 25+ games to get you ready for the holiday weekend. We talk Egg Bowl, Clean Old Fashioned Hate, The Game, Iron Bowl and much more. Phil's Top-3 Plays of the Week are included and have gone 19-7-1 over the last nine weeks.

So much going on with today's show, and we mean that in a good way. For starters, we got Roddy AND Wayne to walk us through this massive rivalry week of games and look back on the weekend that was. Lock Dizzle is back with week 13 takeaways, as well as a look at the nine P4 jobs that are currently open thanks to Cal parting ways with Justin Wilcox on Sunday. Roddy & Wayne have fond memories about what this week means to them as former players and alums (who know all about what it means to beat their arch rival at the end of the season), and they both talk about it in great detail. Plus some must-hear audio from both of those guys' playing days makes a surprise appearance on the program! Last but not least we got some picks from Rodstra - a lot of picks, actually - to wrap up the show. Have a great Thanksgiving holiday and thank you so much for listening to us when you're on the road this week. Safe travels and know that we are thankful and grateful for your listenership. Enjoy the week, everybody!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Week 13 of the college football season is upon us and the fellas are navigating through some brackish waters with a mixed bag of games this weekend. Folks are saying this is a down weekend because obviously the final week is loaded but there's still plenty to jump into. The Lock Doctor has re-branded himself because he's 1-5 in his last two weeks, total free-fall mode. Hartzell is also coming off a rough weekend of picks but still leads the overall standings. Felder is fired up because Thanksgiving is just 6 days away and he's cooking - literally and figuratively - with the Felder 5 this week touching on conference races in the AAC, ACC, SEC, and Big 12. We already know what's going on in the B1G but the best game of the weekend might just be in Eugene between the Ducks and Trojans. That's my Dog and Three for All never disappoint, especially when the 'Lock Dizzle' is on the mic fo' shizzleSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On the first show of the season Rob Joyce predicted Duke would make the Final Four. It hasn't aged great, and he's in his feelings about it, with a large donut to help him calm down. Aside from that, he and Megan Gauer recap all the other happenings from the week - nice wins Iowa and St. John's! - and preview a fun week to come with UConn-Michigan, USC-Notre Dame and the Players Era all going on next week. Then they wrap the show with by drafting teams solely made up of LSU players.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Week 13 College Football Picks are locked and loaded into your feed. Phil Steele is 19-4-1 on his Top-3 Plays of the Week over the last 8 weeks. Once again, Phil delivers his picks and analysis on 25+ games for the upcoming slate. Thursday and Friday selections start us off and we go straight into some of the biggest matchups on the board for a critical Saturday with playoff implications at every corner. Bet smarter, not harder.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

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.

Week 11 in College Football is upon us and who better to break down all the action than Phil Steele. We get Phil's picks and analysis on over 25 games to get you set for a winning weekend.

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.

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. It's a bad day to be a Snickers bar!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

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.

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.
