What happened yesterday? Let's just ask Sip to explain it to us.

Ari once again has enraged the state of Nebraska, this time with a column criticizing Nebraska coach Matt Rhule's stance on the College Football Playoff.(0:00-0:43) Intro(0:44-22:30) Ari and the Nebraska Cornhuskers(22:31-24:48) Watch us on YouTube, Wrapping up Nebraska(24:49-41:51) CFP to adopt Straight-Seeding model(41:52-43:09) BYU QB Jake Retzlaff accused of sexual assault(43:10-1:01:53) Dear Andy & Ari: Accumulating top talent in the NIL Era(1:01:54-1:05:34) The Confidence in Arch Manning at Texas(1:05:35-1:09:00) Revisiting Ari's take on Alabama and Georgia(1:09:01-1:12:42) Wisconsin to play Notre Dame in Lambeau Field in 2026(1:12:43-1:13:49) Conclusion After a joke Rhule made about a 40-team playoff in an interview with HuskerOnline began circulating Wednesday, Ari wrote a column critical of Rhule's previously stated stance that it wasn't worth playing difficult non-conference games in the current system. To put it more bluntly, Ari called that attitude “soft.” Rhule and pretty much everyone else in Nebraska took offense, and it culminated in a conversation between Rhule and Ari that hopefully cleared the air. In other news, Ross Dellenger of Yahoo! reports that conference commissioners are expected to approve straight seeding for the 2025 playoff in a conference call Thursday. BYU quarterback Jake Retzlaff has been accused of sexual assault in a civil lawsuit. It's also a Dear Andy/Dear Ari show, and you sent some great questions… Is Georgia coach Kirby Smart's philosophy of ensuring the proven players on his team make more than unproven freshmen a sound one? Texas and Ohio State both lost a lot of drafted players. Is the confidence in Texas reloading based on confidence in Arch Manning?  Watch our show LIVE on YouTube, M-F at 9:30 am et! https://youtube.com/live/Lx6yt0Wg6Yo Hosts: Andy Staples, Ari WassermanProducer: River Bailey Want to partner with the show?
