The college football season is about halfway over and there are a lot of teams' seasons that are sitting in the middle of catastrophe and staying in the College Football Playoff hunt. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss which of these teams may survive and who may be looking for a new coach at the end of the year. Does the losing coach of LSU and South Carolina have to be concerned for his job after so much preseason hype? Is the loser of Texas and Oklahoma eliminated them from CFP contention, or would Oklahoma be able to survive a loss? Will Hugh Freeze be out with a loss to Georgia?Later, a major controversy was the talk of the sports media world yesterday and today the guys discuss. The controversy surrounded Paul Finebaum's absence on ESPN after his interview with Clay Travis, where Finebaum spoke about potential interest in running for Republican Senate in Alabama. Monday, Travis claimed Finebaum was banned from the ESPN main network after not seeing Finebaum on any of the usual shows he is on over the last week. ESPN denied any truth to this and then speculation began. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss what all seems to be happening and if there appears to be any truth or if this all may be designed to drum up controversy.*Disclaimer: This conversation was recorded before any confirmation of Finebaum appearing on ESPN on Tuesday morning.Finally, in the new world of NIL and college football, some teams and conferences were bound to fall behind. Steven Godfrey discusses the difficulties the Group of Five teams are having in this new world. He and Andy chat about the concept of some schools dropping down to FCS, or to D-2, and how that may be better than struggling in the Division 1 landscape. Get your week rolling with College Football Enquirer.(2:02) - What will determine the LSU & South Carolina coaches' job safety?(6:59) - Are Texas & Oklahoma eliminated with a loss on Saturday?(13:07) - Will Hugh Freeze be out at Auburn with a loss to Georgia?(24:33) - Paul Finebaum controversy(42:37) - Surviving in the Group of Five Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

For some teams, a 3-0 start is precisely in the plan. For others, 3-0 is perhaps a pipe dream, or a first-time occurrence.  In this week's edition of the podcast, we talk about a few of each as we wrap up Week 3 of the Division III football season. Johns Hopkins was given just about a 50% chance of starting the season 3-0, with some top-flight competition on the docket. But they got the job done, and we learned a little bit about the Blue Jays in the process. We'll tell you what we've seen and coach Dan Wodicka will do the same. UW-Whitewater vaulted itself into the same top echelon as the rest of the WIAC contenders with a big win down at Mary Hardin-Baylor. What did we see that bodes well for the Warhawks and what does this do to the Cru's playoff chances? We'll discuss. Plus, a number of teams are surprising at 3-0. How about Calvin? The Knights are in just their second season of varsity football and got to 3-0 in dramatic fashion on the road, against a team from a tough conference. How about Hampden-Sydney? The Tigers moved to 3-0 and did it in dominant fashion, and on the ground. And Lewis & Clark, you know, the school that hired away Linfield offensive coordinator Brett Elliott, the Gagliardi Trophy-winning quarterback, and made him head coach? The Pioneers got the job done with defense on Saturday, and Greg Thomas talks with Elliott in our Fast Five.  Plus, we'll dive in and take four of your mailbag questions, about the SAA, how many teams we think are in the top tier of Division III, whether D-III's wins against D-II schools and an FCS program mean that Division III is getting better, and what's up with Coast Guard. Patrick and Greg Thomas hand out game balls, Logan Hansen talks about which teams have a better than 50% chance of making the playoffs as an at-large team if needed, we go around each region for the happy and sad stories and much more in this edition of the D3football.com Around the Nation podcast.

Join the Hardcore Penn State Football Podcast as we break down No. 2 Penn State's commanding 52-6 victory over Villanova in Week 3 at Beaver Stadium! The Nittany Lions surged to 3-0 behind a ferocious defense and a balanced offensive attack, piling up 500+ total yards while limiting the Wildcats to just 182. With a well-timed BYE week ahead of the Big Ten opener against No. 6 Oregon, this blowout keeps PSU firmly in the playoff conversation—but not without some lingering concerns. We're unpacking the film, the highlights, and what needs fixing to stay elite. Let's roll! Drew Allar put up solid numbers against Villanova—24-of-32 for 280 yards and three TDs—but his streaky tendencies reared their head again, including a first-half interception on a forced checkdown that Omari Bursey snagged for the Wildcats' lone early momentum shift. Allar bounced back with dimes to Trebor Peña (23-yard TD) and Kyron Hudson, but the boom-or-bust pattern—elite lasers mixed with underthrows and hesitation under light pressure—has fans asking: Has he regressed from preseason hype, or is this just Week 3 rust against an FCS foe? With Oregon's pass rush looming, Allar's consistency will be make-or-break. Penn State's defense is a juggernaut, holding Villanova to 2-of-12 on third downs, 3.2 yards per carry, and forcing two turnovers in a near-shutout effort (Villanova's garbage-time TD came with zeros on the clock). True freshman CB Jahmir Joseph emerged as the star, snagging his first career interception—a great baiting of the QB—and returning it 49 yards for a back-breaking pick-6. Tony Rojas added two sacks, Zuriah Fisher terrorized the edges, and the unit's physicality was on full display. Under DC Jim Knowles, this group is swarming, turnover-prone, and absolutely terrifying—is it the best in the country?BYE Week Focus: What Must PSU Improve Before Oregon? The 52-6 thrashing was fun, but the BYE offers prime time to polish rough edges. Offensively, the line still whiffed on a few assignments, leading to stalled red-zone drives (though Nicholas Singleton and Kaytron Allen combined for 160 rushing yards and three TDs). Third-down conversions ticked up to 7-of-14, but efficiency in two-minute drills needs work to counter Oregon's tempo. Defensively, run fits were solid, but coverage lapses allowed a late score—nothing major, but details matter against top-10 talent. Special teams? Ryan Barker nailed three field goals (45, 42, and 28 yards), and Gabe Nwosu averaged 58 yards on punts. Coach Franklin's offseason to-do: O-line cohesion, Allar's footwork, and depth reps to keep the D fresh. Get it right, and PSU could be unstoppable.
