FOX Sports' lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt reacts to the CFP Committee's latest rankings. He gives his thoughts on the Committee's decision to keep Indiana at #2 over Texas A&M after the Hoosiers' dramatic win at Penn State. He also explains why Texas Tech jumping up to #6 puts them in a great position to grab a First Round bye. Klatt looks at the pathway for a 4th Big Ten team as USC comes in at #17 and Michigan at #18 with 3 games left. He then looks at the entire Top 25 and breaks down which teams actually control their own destiny to get to the Playoff – like Ohio State, Georgia and Alabama - and which still need some help or they will be sweating on Selection Sunday. 0:00-2:27 Intro2:28-5:30 Biggest takeaways from CFP rankings5:31-8:02 Texas Tech moves up two spots after win over BYU8:03-9:50 Can the SEC lock up playoff spots?9:51-11:46 What are paths like for a fourth Big Ten team?11:47-15:54 Teams that control their own destiny15:55-21:28 Teams that have a good chance of getting into the CFP21:28-25:32 Who would make the CFP between Miami and Notre Dame?

Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino return for another highly anticipated episode of the Helium Boys Podcast to discuss USC's big 38-17 win over Northwestern and a big homecoming matchup with Iowa this weekend. Shotgun spends his 'Two-Minute Drill' to set the mood for this matchup with Iowa and head coach Kirk Ferentz, who has directly taken some shots at head coach Lincoln Riley and the Trojans in recent years. Chris spends his 'Two-Minute Drill' discussing how Saturday will be a good measuring stick for USC in terms of how far the program has come since the loss to the Hawkeyes in the 2019 Holiday Bowl. The Helium Boys then dive into Stock Up, Stock Down from the home victory over Northwestern, which includes a lengthy discussion about numerology and fake punts as well as Ja'Kobi Lane's making a number of difficult catches. King Miller, Braylon Conley, Carlon Jones, Matai Tagoa'i, Makai Lemon and Jide Abasiri are among the other players mentioned positively while the offensive line had one of their worst performances of the season. In the second half of the show, Chris and Shotgun look at the Iowa Hawkeyes, coming off a narrow 18-16 loss at home to No. 7 Oregon. The Trojans will welcome the Iowa Hawkeyes to the Coliseum for the first time since 1976, which was a 55-0 blowout win for USC. This will be their first ever meeting as Big Ten opponents. This will be a rematch of the 2019 Holiday Bowl in San Diego where Iowa dominated in the second half to a 49-24 win. The Helium Boys take some quick questions before Chris forces Shotgun into another strange blind ranking.

The second College Football Playoff ranking releases tonight. How dramatic will a shift in the rankings be? There is sure to be some near the bottom of the Top 10 after #8 Texas Tech's dominant win over #7 BYU, but how about the top? After #3 Texas A&M's convincing win at #22 Missouri and #2 Indiana's struggle at Penn State, will the committee jump the Aggies over the Hoosiers? Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss how they think the rankings will play out going forward. Plus, what impact could #16 Vanderbilt have on the rankings this season? What has to fall their way in order to make it into this year's CFP, and how can they make sure they can keep their coach after such success this season?Then, the guys take a look at a new tactic for the coaching carousel: Don't get involved. This is the tactic Wisconsin is taking as they announced that head coach Luke Fickell will remain at the helm next season. The immediate result was an upset of #23 Washington. The guys discuss this decision for Wisconsin and their vow to put more funds into the football program. Will this be enough to boost the future of the team and turn the program towards a winning path? What took them so long to get to this point? The guys also talk about why some schools were able to adapt quickly and other schools struggled to respond to NIL. Hint: Some were prepared, some weren't prepared and some were already well versed in the art of paying players. Later, the drama in the Big Ten continues to heat up amongst discussions about private equity. Board members of various schools are speaking out about their lack of involvement with this decision and their opposition to it being voted through. The American Council of Trustees & Alumni, ACTA, is also now involved. A vote seems to still be upcoming, with the current expectation being that only Michigan and USC's presidents are against the decision. How will this all play out?All of this and more on today's College Football Enquirer(2:51) - CFP ranking expectations: Will #3 Texas A&M jump #2 Indiana?(12:18) - What are #16 Vanderbilt's CFP chances?(25:36) - How Wisconsin and other schools can increase their NIL funding(50:48) - Big Ten private equity drama continues to get worse Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

Jake Hasan and Kate Constable take a deep dive into the Heisman Trophy Odds and ask if Saturday's come back win over Penn State, has offically put Indiana Quarterback Fernando Mendoza in the driver's seat or does Julian Sayin's impressive season give him a case? Plus, is there anyone outside the two Big Ten Quarterbacks at the top of the board, that has a legitimate shot at the award?
Matt Rhule is doing the work that his conference should be.
Chip Scoggins, Ryan Burns and Justin Gaard are back and with the Gophers coming off a bye week they spend a ton of time on the big games last weekend in the Big Ten. Oregon out-Iowa'd Iowa in terrible conditions at Kinnick, Indiana had an epic drive for the ages to rally against Penn State and we got word that Luke Fickell will return to coach Wisconsin for a 4th season next year. We also shout out a couple having their wedding reception at Jax Cafe!
It's one of our favorite segments of the week…Indiana looked like they were going to lose to Penn State before the game-winning drive by Fernando Mendoza and company…was that drive worth the Hoosiers being the top team in our rankings? Also…Oregon/Iowa was a great football game…do we move Iowa down at all from 4th in the rankings even though they lost?

On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (@SportsLawLust) , Tarun Sharma (@tksharmalaw), Mike Kravchenko (Watch on YouTube) AND Bryce Goodwyn (@BryceGoodwyn) return with a packed house to discuss some of the latest in our sports law world. First on the docket is the ongoing MLB betting investigations, focusing on the fallout from Emmanuel Clase's suspension and what it reveals about the league's approach to integrity enforcement. Dan walks us through how MLB's monitoring systems flagged unusual activity and how that aligns with emerging federal probes into illegal wagering networks across professional leagues and organizations like UFC. Mike analyzes the uneven disciplinary standards between players and team personnel, while Tarun believes the best course of action is to make an example out of the situation and ban the players for life. What do you think?Next, the discussion shifts to Brian Kelly's firing at LSU, a dispute that has quickly escalated into one of the most explosive buyout battles in recent college football history. Dan and Tarun explain the core of LSU's “for cause” argument and how it looks as well as its impact after initial firing for performance. At least that's what they initially had stated. It all seemingly contrasts with Kelly's contractual guarantees, breaking down the potential financial exposure — reportedly over $53 million. Kelly has sued, and we are underway for a significant precedent-setting case here in college coaching in the new era. From there, the team turns to the Big Ten's private equity proposal, dissecting reports of a $2.4 billion capital deal that would give an outside investor a stake in Big Ten Enterprises. Tarun outlines the mechanics of the proposed structure, while the group shares whether schools like Ohio State and Penn State are in and why schools like Michigan and USC might not be. Finally, Mikayla Yarwood, regional representative for the Conduct Detrimental Law Student Board, sits down with NHL legal fellow Kasey Hughes, who shares insights into life inside a professional sports front office. The conversation covers contract drafting, player filings, sponsorship deal review, and the transition from law school to the industry side of sports law. Kasey offers practical advice for aspiring attorneys entering team or league offices.

Bill opened today's show by lamenting the performance by the Green Bay Packers and stated that head coach Matt LaFleur is coaching for his job for the rest of the season. Bill then explained why the Giants made the right move in firing head coach Brian Daboll before reacting to the breaking news that the Dallas Mavericks are firing GM Nico Harrison. NFL Power Rankings were next as Bill ranked the top 5 teams in the league heading into Week 11. College football insider Dennis Dodd joined the show to discuss the Big Ten's proposed private capital deal, which teams are national title contenders and why Lane Kiffin won't leave Ole Miss. Buy or Sell was next as Bill answered if he likes Mike McDaniel trolling Bills fans, if LSU is losing credibility and if the Giants are an attractive job. The show ended with Bill discussing whether he would rather have a great GM and a bad head coach or vice versa.
In this episode of Bleav in Buckeyes, hosts Bryant Browning and Chimdi Chekwa break down Ohio State's commanding win over Purdue, spotlighting standout performances and game-changing moments. The duo dives deep into what this victory means for the Heisman Trophy race, Big Ten Championship hopes, and Ohio State's playoff path. Plus, they share insider updates on major recruiting commitments shaping the Buckeyes' future and preview the next big matchups and an early look at the high-stakes showdown with Michigan. Takeaways The Buckeyes secured a significant win against Purdue, showcasing their depth and talent. Julian Sayin's performance continues to impress with high accuracy and efficiency. Brandon Inniss made a crucial catch that helped shift the momentum in the game. Jay Fielding's performance as a kicker was noteworthy, especially under challenging conditions. The run game showed potential for improvement, with players like Tegra receiving mixed reviews. Mendoza's last drive against Penn State sparked Heisman discussions, but the performance was not overwhelmingly impressive. Ohio State's recruiting efforts are gaining momentum with several key commitments. The upcoming games will be critical for Ohio State as they prepare for the rivalry against Michigan. The hosts emphasize the importance of maintaining focus and consistency as the season progresses. The conversation highlights the competitive nature of the Big Ten and the potential for upsets.

Purdidn't.The Ohio State Buckeyes dispatched the Purdue Boilermakers with one starting wideout and one starting offensive tackle tied behind their backs, winning 34-10 on the road in West Lafayette, Indiana. Ohio State luckily avoided some of the nasty weather we saw in other games around the Big Ten on Saturday, but it wasn't one of the prettier games we've seen in the Ryan Day era. Then again, that can happen at Purdue. We looked back at the Buckeyes' road win, discussed the key players, moments, and plays, and checked back on our picks to click and our final score predictions. After dissecting Ohio State's win over the Boilermakers, we took a quick spin around the rest of the B1G to see how other teams fared. Indiana looked to be in trouble against Penn State on the road, but the Nittany Lions stayed true to their nature and found a way to lose a close game against a top 10 team. We saw a few familiar things from Jim Knowles' defense on the decisive drive. Elsewhere, Nebraska's new quarterback had himself a nice game on the road as the Huskers beat UCLA out west. Oregon struggled in Iowa, but the Ducks pulled out a late win, with an untimely fumble by the Hawkeyes helping the visitors avoid a Kinnick Stadium upset. Rutgers got a vital win in a bid for bowl eligibility but the Scarlet Knights will still have a tough road to get to six wins. And, what do you know? Wisconsin won in conference play. We also looked ahead to the matchups coming up this weekend. The Badgers will probably not win two in a row when they visit Bloomington. Probably. Meanwhile, Iowa will have a tough time bouncing back when they visit USC. There are some fun matchups coming up in Week 12. Finally, we previewed Ohio State's home game against UCLA. The Bruins' quarterback has played a night game at Ohio Stadium within the past year, and this trip to Columbus doesn't seem likely to yield a much better result. A raucous Horseshoe crowd, the nation's most efficient quarterback, and a bad Bruin defense don't seem to make for a good combination. We break down the matchup and provide our picks to click on Saturday on both sides of the ball and make our score predictions.

The play absolutely wrecked Gus Johnson's voice, which was either an epic call, or another "nails on chalkboard" indictment of the Fox screamer. ANDY POLLIN joins to discuss the Commanders getting destroyed by the Lions. Trump appearance goes poorly. Wisconsin storms the field. Big10 ready to do something reckless. Since stats that suck, and suck hard. Georgetown v. Maryland doesn't quite hit the same.

On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together talking about the Trojans taking care of business Friday night against Northwestern, winning 38-17 thanks to big nights by Jayden Maiava, King Miller and Makai Lemon plus the defense locking things down in the second half. Coach Hyde likes what he saw from the offense, bouncing back after the struggles in Lincoln by Maiava and the passing game. Coach sees what Riley is doing on offense now and he feels he likes the path Riley is trying to navigate heading into the final stretch of the season. Maiava also showed a lot of fight and Coach likes what he is doing on and off the field as a leader of the team. On the defensive side this is the second week in a row that coordinator D'Anton Lynn has made adjustments at halftime and tightened things up after the break, giving up just 3 points in each of the last two games. They also talk about where USC is in the Big Ten hierarchy, where Coach thinks the Trojans talent level lines up and the conference looking into the fake punt that had quarterback Sam Huard wear the same number as the punter, helping to disguise the play. Coach Harvey Hyde has been part of the Peristyle Podcast since 2008 and in the USC football world he is an expert on X's and O's, personnel, coaching philosophies and recruiting.

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, Chris Trevino and intern Riley Sager are back in studio recapping what was another impressive performance in the Coliseum, a 38-17 victory over Northwestern on Friday night. The Trojans and Wildcats were close in the first half, but an amazing defensive play by Jayden Maiava gave USC new life and sparked a 14-point swing. In the second half the Trojan defense took over, allowing only a lone field goal after the break. The crew gives their thoughts on the Trojan offense getting things rolling again, with Jayden Maiava back to his old form, King Miller rushing for over 100-yards in his first Coliseum start and Makai Lemon and Ja'Kobi Lane both bringing their 'A' games. On the defensive side, it was a rough start after Northwestern scored touchdowns on its first two drives, but after that the USC defense was able to tighten up and keep the Wildcats out of the end zone, only allowing 3 points the rest of the way. They also discuss where the 7-2 (5-1) Trojans are in the Big Ten standings, with a legitimate shot at the College Football Playoffs if they can win out. The road gets tougher over the next couple of weeks, with a tough Iowa squad coming to the Coliseum followed by a difficult road trip to Eugene to take on the No. 9 Oregon Ducks.

Men's Basketball vs Oakland Starts at :53 Everyone said "nice" at the halftime of this game. At first it didn't seem like the results meant much because Oakland looked really bad, but then they went and had a close game against Purdue. How much can you gather about Michigan fromhere? Trey McKenney was 6-8 from three and looked the part. He also had four assists and no turnovers, there were some Darius Morris qualities about him. Do they go with the very big rotation with Yaxel out? Will Tschetter seems to get more minutes when Yaxel is out, would like to see him step up as a four year player. Wake Forest was a bubble team last year and look like one this year, that game will tell us more about Michigan. 2. Previewing Men's Basketball in the Big Ten Starts at 21:31 In reverse Kenpom order Penn State They're bad. Rutgers How is this team even going to score a basket? They have seven teams scheduled in the 200s. Minnesota Niko Medved's first year at Minnesota, but the roster does not look good. They'll compete with Rutgers and Penn State for the bottom spot. Oregon 35th in the preseason but have fallen considerably after a one point win over Hawaii and a four point win over Rice. They have a transfer from Elon, the Oregon NIL budget must be focusing on football. Maryland The only Big Ten team with a loss. They shot terribly against Georgetown and were only in it because they scored 30 points off of free throws. Northwestern They bring back Nick Martinelli, the guy who makes the worst shots you've ever seen (complimentary). They've blown out Mercyhurst and Boston, which would be impressive if it was hockey. Their center looks like Elvis. Washington Very young team starting two freshmen and two sophomores. Nebrasketball Sam Hoiberg is still playing a majority of minutes, but at least the mustache is gone. They bring in the Icelandic Unicorn. Iowa Ben McCollum's first year. Tavion Banks looked great at Drake last year but will probably hit a wall against the Big Ten. Ohio State They beat IU Indianapolis 118-102, eek. They've retained a few players which is a big thing in college basketball now. Michigan State More continuity and the best win in the Big Ten so far (69-66 over Arkansas). They're very experienced. They were awful at three point shooting a year ago and so far they're at 20% this year. This doesn't seem like a team that's going to win the league by three games but they didn't look like that last year. Indiana Year one for Darian DeVries. They bring in a lot of new players and we don't know what to expect. This team is loaded with seniors. They're going to do what they do and then go away. UCLA Mick Cronin is awesome, actually. How can a team starting Xavier Booker at center be? They have shooting but defense and rebounding are big questions. What if Mick Cronin yells at them more? USC Hey it's Terrance Williams. USC is surprisingly putting together a basketball program. Wisconsin They're 18th in Kenpom and looking at the roster doesn't make sense. There's no bench, either. Purdue They bring back Braden Smith and Trey Kaufman-Renn. Fletcher Loyer is also back. Their 10 point win over Oakland was awkward. Jack Benter is an interesting freshman at guard. You can't second guess Matt Painter but they're missing their classic giant center that they build around. Illinois This team is huge. They absolutely blew out Jackson State and Florida Gulf Coast. Pronounce Ivisic, or Petrovic, or Stojakovic, or Jakstsys. 3. Hot Takes and Hockey Updates Starts at 1:15:30 Takes hotter than the opposite of Kinnick Stadium, that looked miserable. Michigan split with Wisconsin over the weekend in a return to reality series. But it felt like worse than a split for what got exposed. Michigan couldn't get out of their zone but most teams on the schedule won't be able to replicate what Wisconsin did. Goalie Jack Ivankovic also just had a bad weekend which happens. Friday was such a fun game that was getting ruined by piped in music. They're being told to turn it down. Wisconsin seemed to really get under Michigan's skin and the frustration came out. The Big Ten is one of the best hockey leagues in the world and the league barely broadcasts games. 4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:45:28 Indiana 27, Penn State 24 Absolutely bonkers ending. The final two catches were amazing. This game raised questions about Indiana's ability to block next-level guys. Mendoza was pressured on 50% of dropbacks. Penn State did start the season with a group of players you would've thought would do that, though. All Penn State quarterbacks are now "The Grunk". Indiana was 2-25 against Penn State coming into this game and this was their first ever win in Happy Valley, the feels are still amazing for Hoosiers fans. Oregon 18, Iowa 16 Oregon went into Kinnick during a rain storm and got almost the full Iowa experience (except that the safety happened to Iowa). The only stat that matters is that Oregon survived a November night(ish) game in Kinnick, survive and advance in that scenario. Wisconsin 13, Washington 10 Played in similar conditions as Oregon vs Iowa, except this game sucked! Wisconsin's lead passer was the punter. This was a Big Ten West game and someone had to lose. If this wasn't in a sleet storm then Demond Williams probably gets more than 134 passing yards. Nebraska 28, UCLA 21 Nebraska QB TJ Lateef goes 13/15 for 205 yards and 3 touchdowns. Dylan Raiola who? This was a very Big Ten game with limited possessions because both teams ran the ball a lot. Nebraska goes through so many running backs but might've finally found a guy. Rutgers 35, Maryland 20 Rutgers' running back Antwan Raymond rushed for 240 yards but Rutgers got outrushed. Maryland had six explosive plays and had a -0.4 EPA outside of those. Rutgers rescued their bowl hopes. USC 38, Northwestern 17 The boxscore is a blowout. USC had a fake punt pass that wasn't even legal. Why did they pull that out against Northwestern? It was close at the time. Ohio State 34, Purdue 10 merp MUSIC: "Feel For Love"—Michigan Rattlers "What's It All Mean"—Philharmonik "Sin Triangle"—Sidney Gish “Across 110th Street”—JJ Johnson and his Orchestra
Indiana proved it can hang with legitimate competition as the Hoosiers knocked off Marquette 100-77 in Chicago, methodically building a lead behind Tucker DeVries' unconscious first-half shooting (24 points on 8-12, 5-7 from three) before Lamar Wilkerson took over in the second half to fend off every Marquette run. Despite significant foul trouble that had multiple starters sitting with three or four fouls, IU never let the lead dip below 10 points and played their walk-ons in the final minute of a neutral-site game against a Big East opponent—a sentence nobody expected to write in November.Andy, Ryan, Coach Tonsoni, and Coach Moats break down how this victory against Shaka Smart's pressure defense validated everything we saw in the early games, examining the adjustments that kept IU in control despite 25 team fouls, and celebrating a performance that moved Indiana to 21st in KenPom.Tucker DeVries' masterclass setting the tone with 24 first-half points, including the heads-up pass to Sicily after slow-playing Marquette into thinking he'd pull it outLamar Wilkerson's second-half takeover with 15 points and multiple dagger threes that stopped every Marquette run cold when DeVries sat with foul troubleTrent Sisley stepping up huge in extended minutes (30 total, 16 in second half) with 11 second-half points including the crucial crosscourt pass to Wilkerson for a momentum-killing threeThe offensive versatility: ghost screens, guard-to-guard ball screens, backdoor cuts off face-guarding, and constant counters to everything Shaka Smart threw at them27 assists on 33 made field goals with only eight turnovers against havoc pressure, plus the starting three guards combining for 21 assists and just three turnoversManaging foul trouble masterfully—playing guys with 3-4 fouls extended minutes, backing off ball pressure strategically, and only having one disqualificationSam Alexis and Jasai Miles eating critical bench minutes when foul trouble hit, with Alexis going for 13 and 5 in 26 minutes as a plus-34And much more.On the mics: Andy Bottoms, Ryan Phillips, Brian Tonsoni, and Bob MoatsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Detroit Sports Podcast -- The Michigan Podcast This episode -- The panic button is ENGAGED after Michigan's ugly win over Purdue. What was supposed to be a laugher turned into a nail-biter, exposing cracks in the Wolverines' armor. Bryce Underwood is regressing, the passing game is nonexistent, and injuries have decimated the roster. Steve calls this a poor man's 2021 team, with elite run game, elite defense, but no stabilizing QB and no margin for error. With Ohio State looming, he warns: this just might not be Michigan's year. Joined by Mark Rogers of The Voice of College Football, they debate the passing scheme's complexity, the talent gap, and why the playoff might actually hurt more than help.
