It all comes down to the effectiveness of defense on both sides. Which team holds up best through all four quarters of play? Mike Yam Yam, the author of the book, 'Fried Rice and Marinara' shares what inspired him to write and let's us know his second publication is coming.

The college football season is going into its last week of non-conference games for most teams. Many fans may be looking forward to the excitement a conference schedule brings, but the final week of non-con games is still creating plenty to look forward to. One of those games is #18 South Florida visiting #5 Miami. The new darlings of college football have taken the college football world by storm. They began the season taking down previously ranked Boise State, and then last weekend they upset then 13th-ranked Florida in 'The Swamp.' What is it about coach Alex Golesh's team that is leading to this success, and can they keep it going against yet another highly-ranked opponent? These are some of the questions Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey answer. Plus, is there really a path that both USF and Tulane could make the playoff? One of the guys believes so and gives you the exact scenario it could happen. Also in the show, the guys discuss another big matchup of the weekend. This one is a conference matchup as Florida visits #3 LSU. Florida's Billy Napier has set himself directly back on the hot seat after last weekend's upset, but the coach that will be across the field this weekend has come to his defense. LSU's Brian Kelly spoke to the media this week and praised Billy Napier. The guys discuss why Kelly decided to make this move. They also talk about the history of these two teams facing each other and what they see from this matchup. Finally, Andy, Ross and Steven talk about the Big 12 suspending one of their officiating crews after making some egregious mistakes in the Kansas vs. Missouri game last weekend. What do they think about public accountability for refs and the punishment that was handed down? Is this something we could see other conferences do more of to create more transparency? The guys discuss what exactly happened in this situation and how they feel about how the Big 12 handled the situation.Just a few more days until it's game day again. Until then, join us on the College Football Enquirer.(1:42) - Brian Kelly defends Billy Napier & a Florida @ #3 LSU preview(25:20) - How USF has taken college football by storm & their path to the CFP(47:30) - Big 12 suspends an entire officiating crew Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

From ukulele bedtime routines to their deeply held belief in trusting Christ's plan, Taylor and Wendy offer heartfelt advice to future generations: no matter what happens, the Savior already knew and He is okay with it.Finally, Taylor shares his passion for speed golf, a sport he often plays early in the morning to stay in shape and fit in a full round in just about an hour.

Griffin Warner and Lonte Smith get you ready for CFB Week 1 betting. The Week 1 college football betting podcast kicked off with fiery motivation: play fast on offense, swarm and tackle on defense, and leave no doubt on the field (0:07–0:32). Host Griffin Warner welcomed listeners to the first full slate after Week 0's appetizer, joined by analyst Lonte Smith, promising best bets, betting previews, and Pregame.com promos (0:33–1:25). Lonte recapped Week 0: Kansas State's sloppy turnovers, Western Kentucky's win vs. Sam Houston, Kansas covering easily, and Hawaii splitting. The team split best bets but gained valuable data points, setting the stage for a bigger Week 1 (1:26–2:26). Griffin noted their 1–1 start before discussing Farmageddon: Iowa State upset Kansas State despite being outgained, thanks to field conditions and missed chances. Lonte highlighted K-State's run defense concerns and Iowa State QB Rocco Becht's poise (2:26–5:12). Focus turned to Thursday and Friday action. Boise State opened -8.5 but dropped to -5.5 against South Florida. Lonte leaned over 62.5, citing Boise's dominant offensive line and USF's explosive scheme with QB Byrum Brown, while both defenses struggle with consistency. Griffin noted USF's true home edge at Raymond James Stadium and the attractiveness of betting a home underdog (5:12–10:58). Next came East Carolina vs. NC State, a heated in-state rivalry. ECU returns QB Caden Howes but lost top backs and receivers along with most of its defense. NC State counters with QB C.J. Bailey and a strong WR trio. With both defenses questionable, Lonte recommended over 61.5, predicting Dave Doeren will keep scoring to make a statement (10:59–15:04). Friday's Auburn vs. Baylor clash featured Auburn as -2.5 favorites with total 58. Lonte praised Auburn QB Jackson Arnold behind one of the best offensive lines in college football and a deep WR group, attacking Baylor's secondary that ranked near the bottom nationally. Baylor QB Sawyer Roberson is underrated but struggles under pressure. Lonte leaned Auburn and over, expecting both offenses to produce (15:35–19:39). Georgia Tech vs. Colorado followed, with Tech -5. Lonte is high on Tech's physicality and returning production while fading Colorado after losing Shadur Sanders and top weapons. With QB uncertainty between Salter and Juju Lewis and no running game, Colorado faces major issues. Georgia Tech's balanced offense and experience make them a strong play, with a possible team total over. Public hype favors Deion Sanders, but sharps bet Colorado unders. Lonte called Georgia Tech an ACC dark horse (20:37–26:58). The show closed with Pregame.com promos: code “college50” saves $50 on season packages, plus Greg Shaker's contest with $1,000 cash prizes (26:59–28:08). For best bets, Lonte picked Charlotte +6.5 vs. Appalachian State, noting coaching upgrades and a defense-first identity (28:08–29:51). Griffin chose over 61.5 in NC State vs. ECU, echoing offensive advantages and defensive weaknesses (29:51–31:10). The podcast ended optimistic, teasing Saturday's monster slate including Texas vs. Ohio State (31:10–31:44). This streamlined Week 1 college football betting preview blends expert picks, point spread analysis, totals recommendations, and sharp betting angles. Key games include Boise State vs. South Florida, ECU vs. NC State, Auburn vs. Baylor, and Georgia Tech vs. Colorado, with actionable best bets on Charlotte +6.5 and NC State vs. ECU over 61.5.

How should this affect our read on the Wolverines in 2025? Then, we rank the five most intriguing of the 28 games being played on Thursday and Friday, from Auburn-Baylor as a potential Friday night thriller to the sneaky-good matchup between Boise State and USF.
