Indiana moved to 5-0 with a 73-53 victory over Lindenwood, but the sluggish, stagnant performance felt uncomfortably similar to some early-season struggles from years past until Tucker DeVries went nuclear in the second half.The Hoosiers gave up 48 rebounds including 17 offensive boards and couldn't maintain offensive flow without specific play calls from DeVries, raising questions about whether this team can sustain focus against inferior competition before Tuesday's test against Kansas State.Jerod, Andy, and Coach break down a game that revealed some concerning tendencies while also showing signs of maturity in how Indiana responded to adversity within the game.Tucker DeVries's second-half takeover where he scored 17 points in 16 minutes, including 13 points on five possessions, showcasing shot-making ability Indiana hasn't had in yearsSam Alexis's tone-setting performance with 10 rebounds and four blocks, bringing the physicality and energy that helped turn around a disastrous defensive rebounding effortThe critical timeout at 16:43 in the second half that sparked an immediate 16-3 run and showed this team's ability to refocus when things were getting uncomfortableLamar Wilkerson's defensive effort on a 4-16 shooting night, proving his offense didn't affect his defense and giving a glimpse of what kind of player he'll be when shots aren't fallingConor Enright's value as a non-shooter in Indiana's offense, with discussion about how to maximize a player who doesn't want to shoot but brings so much else to the tableThe offensive stagnation that plagued Indiana for long stretches, with too much standing around and one-on-one play until DeVries called specific sets to get players cutting and movingThe lingering question about Reed Bailey versus Sam Alexis and whether we'll see a change in the starting lineup or minutes distribution as competition increasesAll that and more on this edition of The Assembly Call.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Week 13 has arrived and the biggest game of the weekend has huge CFP implications on the line. #15 USC travels to Eugene to take on #7 Oregon. The former Pac-12 schools meet up in this Big Ten clash. USC can vault itself squarely into the playoff picture with a win. On the flip side, an Oregon win would bolster their highly-criticized resume and potentially secure them a spot in the CFP. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss the importance of this game and how they think the teams will handle the moment. Can Oregon still make the playoff if they take a loss? Plus, the guys take a look at the CFP committee. Baylor AD Mack Rhoades stepped down from the committee and Arkansas AD Hunter Yurachek, who is in the middle of searching for a new head football coach, stepped in. Is there too much on athletic directors' plates to be a part of the committee? Ross thinks that may be the case and has some suggestions of how the CFP committee should change going forward.Then, we take a look at some news off of the field in Ross' Congressional Minute. He fills us in on new info about the SCORE Act and what is going on in the Big Ten. Then the guys dive into the Big Ten news. The drama-filled private equity deal has officially hit a pause and is looking like it may now never come to fruition. After months of discussion that seemed to be moving towards a vote, the push behind getting this deal done looks to be weakening. The guys discuss all of the latest info and talk about where the deal goes from here.Later, the guys finish previewing the weekend ahead as they make their picks for I've Got A Feeling. Iowa, Maryland and Delaware are this week's picks. Get ready for Week 13 with College Football Enquirer.(0:56) - #7 Oregon hosts #15 USC with huge CFP implications(10:38) - How the CFP committee should change(22:30) - Ross' Congressional Minute(23:30) - Big Ten's private equity deal loses steam(41:53) - I've Got A Feeling Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

James Franklin shakes up ACC recruiting by landing at Virginia Tech, putting Penn State on edge. With Franklin's move sparking heated debate, Zach Seyko and recruiting insider Brian Smith dissect whether Penn State's decision to fire Franklin was a massive misstep—especially as recruits, current staff and players may follow him to Blacksburg. Could Penn State lose rising stars like Tony Rojas and Amare Campbell? Will Ethan Grunkemeyer bolt for a starting quarterback role under Franklin?The conversation covers Penn State's true stature among college football's elite and evaluates realistic coaching replacements, factoring in facility upgrades and recruiting territory battles. Insights into Franklin's history as a relentless recruiter and why Virginia Tech is poised for a dramatic turnaround set the stage for an uncertain Big Ten vs. ACC rivalry.

Another week, another too-close-for-comfort win for Michigan football. And even still, the Wolverines are right on track for an epic clash against Ohio State to determine the College Football Playoff. Michigan turned the ball over five times and needed a last second field goal to beat Northwestern, but it still goes in the win column, much like the ugly Purdue game the week before or the MSU one the week before that. Tony and Andrew open the show by discussing why this Michigan football team is hard to understand, before talking about some real positives from the win over Northwestern (looking at you, Andrew Marsh). Then the guys quickly discuss the Maryland matchup and what's at stake. After the break (22:51) the guys dive into Michigan football's threat of conference independence from Michigan Board of Regents member Jordan Acker. If the private equity-Big Ten deal goes through, is Michigan football really a candidate to become the next Notre Dame?
