John Carroll, Defense Counsel for Brendan Banfield, presented closing arguments today in the Brendan Banfield murder trial. Banfield, a former IRS agent, is charged with four counts of aggravated murder in the February 2023 deaths of his wife Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan at their Herndon, Virginia home.Prosecutors allege Banfield plotted the killings with the family's Brazilian au pair, Juliana Peres Magalhães, with whom he was having an affair. Magalhães has pleaded guilty to manslaughter and is expected to testify against Banfield. The defense maintains digital evidence does not support the state's catfishing theory.#BrendanBanfield #AuPairAffair #MurderTrial #TrueCrime #Testimony #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #FairfaxCounty #HiddenKillers #BreakingJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Juliana Peres Magalhães is the prosecution's entire case—and she's a credibility minefield. She lied for over a year. She wrote jail letters promising to "take the blame" for Brendan Banfield. She told his mother she would "give my life for his." She only flipped after Banfield's arrest, after hospitalization from stress, and after his family stopped paying her legal bills.

The prosecution's entire case rests on one witness: Juliana Peres Magalhães. She's the only person alive who was in that bedroom when Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan were killed. She testified that she watched Brendan Banfield stab his wife to death. She admitted firing the second shot into Ryan's chest. But for over a year, she lied. She wrote letters from jail promising to "take the blame." She told Banfield's mother she would "give my life for his." She only flipped after his arrest, after hospitalization from stress, and after his family stopped paying her legal bills. Now she's negotiating with Netflix. Media producers fund her commissary.

Two bombshells dropped on Day 7 of the Brendan Banfield double murder trial in Fairfax County, Virginia.First, the defense landed a significant blow. Homicide Detective Leah Smith testified that leadership pushed the catfishing theory before evidence supported it. According to Smith, she was told: "There are two theories and you need to get behind the right one." Defense attorney John Carroll revealed a forensic analyst was removed from the case after theorizing that Christine Banfield — not Brendan — was communicating with Joseph Ryan on the fetish website FetLife. The defense argues investigators had tunnel vision from the start.Then came the prosecution's counter-punch. Victim services officer Saly Fayez testified that an intel detective overheard a conversation in a hotel lobby just hours after Christine's death. According to Fayez, Brendan's daughter Valerie asked the au pair Juliana Peres Magalhães: "Can I call you mommy now?" Juliana allegedly said yes. Then Valerie asked if Juliana would marry her daddy. The reported response: "I wish."Lt. David Giaccio testified that Juliana's account only confirmed what forensic evidence already indicated. Even Detective Smith admitted Banfield's arrest was based on evidence, not the au pair's testimony.Court resumes Friday. Brendan Banfield has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent.#BrendanBanfield #TrueCrimeToday #AuPairAffair #ChristineBanfield #MurderTrial #FairfaxCounty #JulianaMagalhaes #FetLife #JosephRyan #BreakingCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The defense is fighting back in the Brendan Banfield double murder trial, and today they brought the receipts.Day 6 opened with police body camera footage from the morning Christine Banfield died. The jury watched Brendan Banfield at the hospital, heard him ask about his daughter, heard the doctor tell him his wife's wounds were unsurvivable. And they watched him cry — both on the footage and again in the courtroom watching it back.But before any of that, defense attorney John Carroll tried to get Juliana Peres Magalhães' entire testimony thrown out. The judge shut it down cold. The au pair's words stay in the record.Then came the counter-attack. Defense blood spatter expert LeeAnn Singley disputed the prosecution's crime scene analysis and dropped a loaded statement: perpetrators sometimes self-inflict wounds. The implication hangs in the air. Digital forensics experts followed, building the case that Christine Banfield — not Brendan — may have been the one using FetLife.Child endangerment charges move forward. A snowstorm threatens to compress the trial timeline. And the jury has to decide whether Brendan Banfield's tears are evidence of innocence or the performance of a lifetime.We break down every moment from Day 6.#BrendanBanfield #HiddenKillers #AuPairMurder #ChristineBanfield #TrueCrimePodcast #FairfaxTrial #BloodEvidence #DefenseStrategy #JulianaPerezMagalhaes #DoubleHomicideJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The Commonwealth has rested its case against Brendan Banfield — and the final witnesses may have sealed the prosecution's narrative. Blood stain pattern analyst Iris Dalley Graff delivered hours of testimony explaining why the forensic evidence at the crime scene doesn't match an interrupted home invasion. Instead, she told jurors, the blood patterns suggest deliberate staging.Graff testified that Joseph Ryan's blood flowed in multiple directions — indicating his body was moved after he was shot. Even more damning: Christine Banfield's blood appears to have been intentionally transferred onto Ryan's hands, pants, and forearm. Graff described "finger-like" transfer patterns and blood droplets consistent with someone dripping blood from above. This directly supports Juliana Peres Magalhães' testimony that Banfield moved Ryan's body and smeared his dead wife's blood on the man to frame him.Defense attorney John Carroll attacked Graff's conclusions and highlighted body cam footage showing Banfield with bloody hands on his wife's neck when police arrived — suggesting a husband attempting first aid, not a killer staging a scene. After the jury was dismissed, Carroll moved to strike all charges, calling the au pair an unreliable witness. Judge Penney Azcarate denied the motion.The defense now takes over with four to five witnesses planned. The question: can John Carroll fracture the prosecution's narrative enough to create reasonable doubt?#BrendanBanfield #AuPairAffair #ChristineBanfield #BloodEvidence #FairfaxCounty #MurderTrial #TrueCrime #JulianaMagalhaes #CrimeSceneAnalysis #DoubleHomicideJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

There will be changes, and there will be big decisions to make — but what exactly should those be? ITL debates whether the Texans are truly in a position to start from scratch on offense yet again, or if that would be a step backward instead of forward. Plus, Lunch-Time Confessions brings some levity as Figgy scouts a possible Texans OC from John Carroll, and the hour wraps with College Football on a Tuesday: National Championship Edition.

ITL opens with a franchise-defining question for the Texans: Do you extend C.J. Stroud right now, and are the Texans actually as close to a Super Bowl team as they believe they are internally? The crew debates what Sunday's game really revealed and wraps the hour with a QOTD asking who could have played quarterback and still won. Around The NFL follows with major league news as the Titans hire Robert Saleh, the Dolphins bring in Jeff Hafley, and the Broncos announce Jarrett Stidham will start against New England in the AFC Championship, before ITL plays a free agency game to decide which position group the Texans should prioritize this offseason and closes with What's Popping in sports and entertainment. Attention then turns to the future of the Texans offense as ITL debates whether the team is truly in a position to start over yet again, mixes in Lunch-Time Confessions with Figgy scouting a potential Texans offensive coordinator from John Carroll, and wraps with College Football on a Tuesday: National Championship Edition. The show closes by confronting the toughest question of all — is C.J. Stroud broken, and can he realistically come back from this stretch — before Figgy's Mixtape delivers chaos with stories ranging from a killer elephant on the loose in India to a Cleveland radio host floating the idea of trading for Stroud, and more wild headlines.

** Correction: The only Catholic signer of the Declaration of Independence was Charles Carroll, not John Carroll. Although there are cousins from the same prominent Catholic family in Maryland **In the earliest chapters of human history, when humanity first awakened to the vast chasm that sin had torn between itself and God, the Almighty—rich in wisdom and mercy—established a system of sacrifice. To modern sensibilities, such practices may seem foreign, even unsettling. Yet these sacrifices were never barbaric rituals devoid of meaning. They were sacred signs, visible declarations of an invisible reality: sin creates a debt, and reconciliation demands atonement.The Israelites, chosen to bear divine truth in a world shrouded in darkness, obeyed this command with reverence. Each unblemished lamb placed upon the altar, each offering consumed by sacred fire, testified to the weight of sin and the desperate human need to be restored to God. The Temple sacrifices were not empty motions; they were solemn reminders that sin costs something and that holiness requires blood.And yet, this system was never meant to stand forever. No ritual, no matter how meticulously observed, could cleanse the human heart. These sacrifices were shadows, holy signposts pointing forward to a far greater reality, a redemptive plan set in motion “before the foundation of the world” (Ephesians 1:4). As Scripture declares, “it is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins” (Hebrews 10:4). The altar prepared the way, but it could not complete the work.Then, in the fullness of time, the answer arrived.Jesus Christ entered the story, not as another offering, but as the offering. He is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world (John 1:29). In Him, the fragmented symbols of ancient worship are gathered and fulfilled. God Himself stepped into the brokenness of human existence. The eternal Word became flesh and dwelt among us, fully divine and fully human. On the cross, Christ carried the crushing weight of our guilt, spanning the infinite gulf that sin had carved between heaven and earth.The sacrifices of old were provisional, divine lessons training the hearts of God's people to recognize the magnitude of what was to come. In Jesus, sacrifice reaches its perfection. He is both High Priest and spotless Victim, offering Himself freely, not as a cold transaction, but as an act of unfathomable love. With His final breath, the Temple system met its completion, and the Savior's cry echoed through eternity: “It is finished” (John 19:30).Now, standing in the light of this finished work, we are confronted with a question that cannot be ignored. Do we grasp the depth of Christ's sacrifice? Have we allowed His love to transform us? Scripture calls us not merely to admire the cross, but to respond to it – offering our own lives as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God (Romans 12:1).In the Lamb of God, redemption is complete. --- Help Spread the Good News --- Father Brian's homilies are shared freely thanks to generous listeners like you.

Day 2 of the Brendan Banfield trial focused entirely on cross-examination of star witness Juliana Peres Magalhães. Defense attorney John Carroll attacked her credibility using jail letters in which she promised to protect Banfield and "take the blame for both of us."Magalhães admitted she's been in contact with Netflix and other producers about selling her story, and that media companies are now paying her jail expenses. When asked about a letter to her mother saying "we deserve something," she testified she believes her family deserves compensation.The prosecution says blood evidence will prove Banfield's guilt regardless of credibility questions. The defense says she's a liar who flipped to save herself.

The Brendan Banfield murder trial begins Monday, January 12th, 2026. This is the complete breakdown of the case before opening statements.On February 24, 2023, police found Christine Banfield, 37, stabbed to death in her Herndon, Virginia bedroom. Joseph Ryan, 39, lay feet away — shot twice by two different guns. Christine was nude. Ryan was fully clothed. A knife, two firearms, and fetish sex accessories were scattered around the room. The Banfields' 4-year-old daughter was in the basement.Prosecutors allege Brendan Banfield, an IRS criminal investigator, conspired with the family's au pair Juliana Peres Magalhaes to murder his wife. They say the pair created a fake FetLife profile in Christine's name to lure Ryan to the house, then killed them both and staged it to look like self-defense against a home invader.But Fairfax County Police's own digital forensics expert contradicted that theory. Officer Brendan Miller analyzed 60 devices and concluded Christine appeared to be the one controlling the account. His findings were peer-reviewed and confirmed. Then he was transferred out of the unit.The prosecution's star witness is Juliana, who changed her story after a year in jail and got a deal to walk free if she testifies. She wrote to her mother: "I'm heartbroken for doing this to Brendan... But it's the right thing to do. For you. I want to be with you again."The lead prosecutor was removed after being cited for drinking at 8 a.m. Key evidence has been excluded. Defense attorney John Carroll says this is "a theory in search of facts."Four weeks. Cameras in the courtroom. A nurse and an innocent man are dead. The trial starts now.#TrueCrimeToday #BrendanBanfield #AuPairMurder #ChristineBanfield #HerndonVirginia #MurderTrial #JulianaMagalhaes #FetLifeMurder #TrueCrimeNews #FairfaxCountyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Brendan Banfield's murder trial starts Monday, January 12th. He's accused of killing his wife Christine and a stranger named Joseph Ryan in an elaborate plot involving the family's Brazilian au pair and a sexual fetish website. But the prosecution has a problem they can't explain away.Their own digital forensics expert said the evidence doesn't support their theory.Officer Brendan Miller analyzed 60 devices and concluded Christine Banfield appeared to be the one controlling the FetLife account — not her husband. His report stated there was "no indication that Christine lost control of her devices." He found she was communicating with multiple people on the site. His findings were peer-reviewed by the University of Alabama and confirmed.Then Miller was told he would "never be doing another digital forensics case" in the major crimes bureau. He was transferred. The lead homicide detective who also disagreed was moved off the case.Defense attorney John Carroll called it "a theory in search of facts rather than a series of facts supporting a theory."Now the entire case depends on Juliana Peres Magalhaes — the au pair who changed her story after a year in jail and took a deal that lets her walk free if she testifies. She wrote to her mother from jail that she was "heartbroken" to be doing this to Brendan but wanted to come home.The lead prosecutor was removed after being found drinking at 8 a.m. The child's interview was excluded as evidence. And it took nearly three years to get to trial.Christine Banfield was a nurse who spent her career helping sexual assault survivors. Joseph Ryan was a man looking for connection who walked into a trap. Both are dead. Somebody is responsible. Starting Monday, a jury has to decide if it was Brendan Banfield.#HiddenKillers #BrendanBanfield #AuPairMurder #ChristineBanfield #JosephRyan #FairfaxCounty #MurderTrial #TrueCrimePodcast #FetLifeMurder #CriminalJusticeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Our week in review examines the Brendan Banfield case — where digital forensics contradicted the prosecution's theory and two investigators were moved off the case.On February 24, 2023, Christine Banfield — a 37-year-old pediatric ICU nurse — was stabbed to death in her Herndon, Virginia home. Found beside her was Joseph Ryan, a 39-year-old stranger shot twice by two different guns. The initial story was self-defense against an intruder. Prosecutors say that's a lie. They allege Brendan Banfield created a fake FetLife profile using his wife's photo, spent months luring Ryan to the house under the pretense of a violent sexual fantasy, then conspired with the family's au pair to stage a home invasion and murder his wife.But the prosecution's own digital forensics expert reached a different conclusion. Officer Brendan Miller analyzed 60 devices and determined Christine — not Brendan — appeared to be running that FetLife account. His findings were peer-reviewed by the University of Alabama and confirmed. Miller was subsequently transferred out of digital forensics. The lead homicide detective who reportedly disagreed with command staff's direction was also moved.Defense attorney John Carroll called the prosecution's case "a theory in search of facts rather than a series of facts supporting a theory." Judge Penney Azcarate ordered prosecutors to produce communications related to those transfers.The case now hinges on Juliana Peres Magalhaes, who spent nearly a year facing murder charges before changing her story. Her plea deal: time served and deportation to Brazil in exchange for testimony against Banfield. Trial is January 2026.

The Brendan Banfield murder case has all the elements of a true crime nightmare — an alleged affair, a sex fetish website, a double homicide, and an au pair who flipped on her former lover. But the defense is pointing to something prosecutors would rather you ignore: the investigators who said the evidence didn't support the theory were removed from the case.Banfield, a former IRS special agent, faces four counts of aggravated murder in the deaths of his wife Christine Banfield and Joseph Ryan at their Herndon, Virginia home in February 2023. Prosecutors allege Banfield and au pair Juliana Peres Magalhaes created a fake FetLife profile pretending to be Christine, lured Ryan to the home for a staged sexual encounter, then killed them both.But Fairfax County's own digital forensics expert, Officer Brendan Miller, analyzed 60 devices and concluded Christine appeared to be the one running the account. His report stated there was "no indication that Christine lost control of her devices" and that she was communicating with multiple people on the site. The University of Alabama peer-reviewed his findings and confirmed them.Miller was transferred out of digital forensics. The lead homicide detective who reportedly disagreed with command staff was moved off the case too. Defense attorney John Carroll called the prosecution's case "a theory in search of facts."Now everything rides on Juliana Peres Magalhaes, who changed her story after a year facing murder charges and took a plea deal for time served. In a jailhouse letter, she wrote she was "heartbroken" to be doing this to Brendan but wanted to go home to Brazil.Today we examine the defense perspective — and ask whether this investigation followed the evidence or forced the evidence to follow a theory.#TrueCrimeToday #BrendanBanfield #AuPairMurder #ChristineBanfield #HerndonVirginia #MurderTrial #JulianaMagalhaes #FetLifeMurder #TrueCrimeNews #ColdCaseJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

One of the two semifinals was a classic, fit for kids from 1 to 92 ... if you can handle stress, that is.  And we aren't just spouting cliches when we say this is as good as it gets -- in the history of the national semifinals since automatic bids were added and the playoffs expanded beyond four rounds in 1999, there have been only two years where both semifinals were close. It's far more likely that both of them are two-score games! So to get not just one good one, but one epic one, well, that's great. When Kaleb Blaha threaded the tiniest hole to find Blake Rohrer, and Rohrer ran untouched to the end zone for a 79-yard touchdown against Johns Hopkins, it not only sent the Falcons to the Stagg Bowl for the first time ever, it united a community, and was another memorable moment in a friendship between the two. They talk about it, how they met, how Blaha recruited Rohrer to come out for the UW-River Falls football team, and how the River Falls community reacted on Saturday night, in Around the Nation. 2016 Around the Nation column: Out of darkness, light, by Adam Turer, featuring the rebuilding UW-River Falls program At North Central, the Cardinals got the best passing performance of the season from Garet Wilson, and Jack Rummell had some amazing catches and runs. What did Wilson say to him before a third-and-8 play, and how did Rummell respond? We also hear from transfer defensive end Eli Renick, and chat with coach Brad Spencer about what's next for North Central as they head to their sixth consecutive Stagg Bowl. Plus, for Johns Hopkins, what does this run ending mean for the state of the program? And for John Carroll, it's the end of two years where Nick Semptimphelter was able to play football for the Blue Streaks with tight end Terrence Rawls, who was not just his high school teammate, but a literal member of his family. He talks about that, and coach Jeff Behrman talks about Semptimphelter. Patrick and Greg also hand out game balls and we take your questions in the mailbag. That and more in this edition of the D3football.com Around the Nation podcast. The D3football.com Around the Nation podcast is a weekly conversation about NCAA Division III football, and has been running since 2007.

First, we tell you the factors that led to the city entering into 2026 with a budget deficit. Then, a KPBS analysis found a big change and shift between Imperial County's last two elections. Also, San Diego is one of three cities bidding to host the 2029 Invictus Games. Lastly, we speak to KPBS reporter & anchor John Carroll for this week's Pod Behind the Package.

Watch & enjoy the preview to both of these exciting games!

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima discuss a "controversy" regarding John Carroll football's upcoming playoff game with North Central College and whether Lima - set to broadcast the game - should consider stepping down.

It's a milestone podcast, but we're not quite to the final stage of the Division III football season. You can't blame us for getting dressed up -- OK, maybe just Greg decided to dress up for the audio podcast. But answering the call to the Final Four ball were who most people thought they were in our predictions this week: Johns Hopkins, John Carroll, North Central and UW-River Falls. And instead of doing the blow-by-blow of each game -- because, let's be honest, the average margin of victory was nearly 20 points -- let's hear from people in the middle of each of these games. So we'll be joined by John Carroll cornerback Dylan Crasi, who spent the first half on the sidelines but made his presence known right away in the third quarter. We'll talk to North Central quarterback Garet Wilson, whose first year in Division III since coming from Oklahoma State has been a revelation for both Division III and for him. We chat with UW-River Falls coach Matt Walker about the schematic and playbook choices the Falcons made this week, how they kept players warm (seriously, there was a detailed plan). And Keith McMillan talks to Johns Hopkins offensive lineman Michael Nwosu and defensive lineman Graham Hodge about their play on a day where the Blue Jays' line play was huge. Plus, the coaching carousel continues to turn as Ithaca loses a second consecutive coach to the Ivy League. Sewanee makes a hire who has much more D-III experience than the last guy they hired. And Lawrence didn't even give its new coach six months before cutting him loose?  Patrick and Greg also hand out game balls and we take your questions in the mailbag segment, and Patrick gives an early Stagg Bowl prediction? That and more in this edition of the D3football.com Around the Nation podcast.

We've got recaps from EVERY playoff game at the small school level as well as a look at some recent drama when it concerns the playoffs for teams like Harding and Marian.

When the previous "biggest win in school history" is from the 1950s, replacing the entry at the top of the list means something.  Sure, you could quibble over whether a win against Syracuse from seven decades ago, or a national quarterfinal win at Brockport in 2002, or a quarterfinal win at UW-Whitewater in 2016 should be next on the list, but no regular season win, even one against Mount Union, compares with beating Mount Union at Mount Union in the playoffs.  A win of this nature is so iconic that the head coach's phone blows up, and so does the feed of everyone else even remotely associated with John Carroll football. The traffic on D3football.com nearly doubled in the course of 10 minutes. There's no pretending this is an ordinary win. And to John Carroll's credit, they didn't try to. We chat with Jeff Behrman, the JCU head coach, about having confidence in kicker Colin Schuler after a missed chip shot in the first overtime nearly cost them the game, about the key final play of the game, and about the team's return to campus, the reception, and what's next for the Blue Streaks. We bring back in former co-host Keith McMillan to break down the play, what he saw on video from his perspective as a former Division III football starting safety.  Mailbag questions came hard for this game. The one we chose to answer was whether this means that JCU is up to Mount Union's level or if Mount Union has slipped and there's just one elite team. The answer is perhaps no different than it was when Keith and Greg Thomas wrote a column under the headline "Today, we are all Mount Union" after the 2022 Stagg Bowl, for we are all chasing North Central. We take your mailbag questions. We have postgame audio from all eight games and break them all down. Keith also sits down with Johns Hopkins coach Dan Wodicka and safety Sam Bourdo. Bethel's David Geebli talks about recovering from fumbling on the first snap of the game. Susquehanna's Josh Ehrlich takes the blame for the River Hawks' slow start. Matt Walker talks about UW-River Falls' slow start, although it was fairly brief. Jesse Scott talks about what they saw that was familiar in DePauw's run defense. Berry safety Chaz Pope talks about his game-sealing interception. There's those clips and much more in this podcast. Plus we drop some scoop as to when we will release our All-America team, we answer whether we really thought Johns Hopkins lost some shine after the F&M loss and we bring the receipts to prove it (they're all on the website).  Patrick and Greg also hand out game balls, bring you through the stats of the week and we take your questions in the mailbag segment. That and more in this edition of the D3football.com Around the Nation podcast.

On this episode, we sit down with Owen Schuckert, senior kicker and punter at John Carroll University and a member of the Allstate AFCA Good Works Team.

Montie Quinn should have been a household name to you already. He was a D3football.com All-America running back last season, rushing for 1,600 yards. He'd had two 200-yard rushing games already this season, he's now over 5,000 rushing yards for his career ... if you only found out about him on Saturday, or Sunday, that's a bummer. When he exploded for 522 yards in a win vs. Nichols on Saturday, you should have said, yeah, actually, I can see that happening. Quinn had an amazing Saturday, and probably spent a good amount of Sunday doing interviews. You can find his story in The Athletic, and on area TV stations, with more to come. And he chatted with us as well, just like he did this past summer. Quinn is our Fast Five guest -- sorry, our Fast 522, plus he gets a game ball, of course, and much more. Podcast 381: Montie Quinn joined us in June to talk about his goals for 2025, his preparation and more If not for that, we'd be talking even more about the incredible game that took place between John Carroll and DePauw on Saturday, one that ended in a fashion that people will talk about for years, with the sunlight all but gone and with a touchdown catch with 14.4 seconds left. We talk about the learnings for the Blue Streaks and the Tigers and yes, DePauw still has plenty of weapons. UW-Platteville and UW-La Crosse had to dig into their two-deeps to find starting running backs this week, and Platteville came out on top. Hear from freshman running back Blake Bangston, who ran for 105 yards and a touchdown, as well as sophomore quarterback Nate Uselding and coach Ryan Munz about the win. Also, we'll share the story of the person who thought he held the Division III single-game rushing record some years ago, only to have it taken away. Plus, Patrick and Greg hand out game balls, so get your Roman Funk on, spotlight the unusual stats of the week, Logan Hansen talks about which teams have the best chance of getting a top-eight seed and protected home field in the playoffs, we go around each region for even more stories and much more in this edition of the D3football.com Around the Nation podcast.
