Men's Basketball vs Michigan State Starts at 0:51 Michigan is the best team in the Big Ten since the 1977 Indiana team. You can't say they didn't earn it, they had to win at Breslin, Carver, and Illinois. They would still win the Big Ten outright if you only counted the games that Michigan won by double digits. It was Yaxel's deep shooting that propelled Michigan when they weren't shooting well. Michigan felt mortal with Tschetter at the four but MSU didn't exactly take advantage of that time. There were a lot of 1-on-1 opportunities, Michigan only had 12 assists. 1.27 PPP is crazy against Michigan State. Where does Yaxel Lendeborg rank all time amongst all Michigan players? They had a reel prepared for when Fears would kick someone in the jingle jangles, and it did happen. Credit Dusty for keeping the team calm when things start to go wrong. How is Fears allowed to keep playing the way he does? Congrats to Nebraska for getting the #2 seed. 2. Men's Basketball vs Iowa Starts at 32:06 A very slow game and a very annoying win. Their thing is fouling you constantly and hoping the refs don't call it. They fired Fran and we hate Iowa basketball now. Michigan finally gets some calls in the second half and turns the ball over a lot. Bennett Stirtz's 4-14 from three feels optimistic for him given the shot quality. There was a "sink or swim" moment when Cadeau had to sit out and it wasn't great. Cadeau played 30 minutes but in an important tournament setting he'll probably play more than that. Roddy Gayle has some at-the-rim difficulties that have lasted most of the conference season. Fran McCaffery was a beautiful Big Ten coach and now he's in the Ivy League. 3. Hot Takes and Spring Ball - Offense Starts at 54:05 How excited is everyone for this spring practice? What will Bryce's role as a runner be? JJ didn't run much but in the championship season there were only 4-5 games where he would have needed to. Maybe Bryce looks a little better throwing downfield now that he has actual receivers. JJ Buchanan might have a Colston Loveland level catch radius. There was a moment of silence for Max Bredeson but we truncate silence on this podcast so you didn't hear it. What's the tight end depth going to look like? Evan Link to guard? We're expecting a big third year swing for Blake Frazier. 4. Spring Ball - Defense Starts at 1:22:09 Any sort of news about John Henry Daley being able to play would be high on the list. And Rod Moore. Also hoping to hear good things about Palepale and Cam Brandt. The North Dakota State linebacker (Nathaniel Staehling) transfer could be really good, he was a captain and these scenarios often work out nicely. Ideally he's the 3rd linebacker because that means some other guys popped off. How much much better will everyone look with better coaching? Unfortunately we won't be able to see if rotation on defense gets better in the Spring Game. Could Shamari Earls overtake Jyaire Hill? New kickers but kicking in April seems different than in the Fall. Looking forward to punting drills. Taylor Tatum for punt return?

In case you slept through it, a predawn lunar eclipse occurred at 5:38AM CST this morning (Tuesday, March 3). The “Worm Moon” (as dubbed by the astronomy community) is a nod to earthworms which tend to emerge from the ground at this time of year during winter thawing. Anyone living south of I-20 knows a thing or two about thawing of late. Air conditioners here in the deep South have also emerged from hibernation after a recent wave of 80+ degree temperatures – even before the end of February. As can happen during these full moon events, the weekend featured a number of rather unusual sports stories. Women’s half-marathon in Atlanta ended with a surprise finish Sunday’s women’s Half Marathon Championship in Atlanta provided a lead vehicle in front of the leaders pack. These are commonly used for races in major cities. With a little more than one mile to go in the race, the top three women runners followed such a vehicle. Unfortunately, it led the top trio off the race course and down the wrong street! The other runners in the field quickly noted the error, made the proper turn, and proceeded on toward the finish line. The confused race leader needed about 60 seconds to notice that she was running the wrong way. She and the other two leaders quickly made a U-turn. Those unfortunate detour required almost two minutes in order to return to the original course route. By then, the confused trio of competitors would complete the race in 9th, 12th and 13th place. The top prize of $20,000 went to another runner. This threesome of wayward runners filed an immediate protest afterwards. It was denied. Officials claimed that the entry form clearly required each runner to know the race layout prior to the start of the competition. What about that lead vehicle? Ironically, the vehicle was provided by the host city’s Atlanta Track Club. Driving in a big city like Atlanta can be challenging, but that was downright embarrassing. USC’s 26-year old (!) top scoring basketball player is no longer with the team The 18-11 USC Trojans men’s basketball team has lost five straight games. After the team’s weekend loss to #12 Nebraska, USC announced that its 19 point-per game starting forward was no longer with the team. Chad Baker-Mazara went down with an apparent injury early in the second half of Southern Cal’s 82-67 home loss to the surprising Cornhuskers on Saturday. Instead of sitting down on the team’s bench, the 6’7” basketball player was found sitting in the stands near the bench between a young lady and another injured teammate. The trio was seen having a delightful chat during the second half of USC’s fifth straight loss. USC has fallen from a likely NCAA March Madness selection to a team unlikely to make the field unless they win the upcoming Big Ten basketball tournament. Second year coach Eric Musselman was unaware of the severity of Chad Baker-Mazara’s injury during the game other than the trainer telling the coach, “He couldn’t go.” Chad Baker-Mazara is from the Dominican Republic. He has played collegiately for Duquesne (Pittsburgh), San Diego State, Northwest Florida State, Auburn (2023-2025) and at USC this season. He has a history of being rather temperamental on and off the court. The 26-year old Baker-Mazara was listed as a graduate student at Southern Cal. However, he was drafted in late January by a professional basketball league based in Puerto Rico. Perhaps he’s had enough of those tough grad school courses at age 26 to get that degree. Famed “Bear Trap” snared PGA golfer Shane Lowry in Sunday’s final round The 15th, 16th, and 17th holes at PGA National’s Champion course are well known to professional golfers. Called “The Bear Trap” to honor course designer Jack “The Golden Bear” Nicklaus, this trio of holes is among the most difficult on the PGA Tour. Add a stiff Florida ocean breeze and carding a par on each of those three holes is considered a big success. The 2019 British Open champion Shane Lowry was atop the leaderboard by two shots coming into the infamous “Bear Trap” holes at the Cognizant Classic in Palm Beach, Florida Sunday. Lowry made a par 3 on the 15th hole to retain his lead. At the par-4 16th hole, Shane Lowry’s tee shot drifted to the right and splashed down into the adjacent lake. A double bogey six tightened the match and allowed his playing competitors back into the game. The final “Bear Trap” obstacle was the treacherous par-3 17th hole. With mounting pressure and gusting winds, Shane Lowry’s tee shot again drifted right and sank to the bottom of a lake. That second consecutive double bogey also sank Lowry’s chances to win the golf tournament. Columbia’s Nico Echavarria held steady and gladly accepted his good fortune to claim a victory and paycheck of more than $1.7 million. Shane Lowry finished in a tie for second place. His payday of $726,000 was one million dollars less than he would have received for first place. Ouch! Thought about the weekend NFL Combine – New York Jets coach needs more sleep The woeful New York Jets will have four of the first 44 selections during Round 1 and 2 in late April’s NFL draft in Pittsburgh. Head coach Aaron Glenn finished 4-13 during his first season with the Jets in 2025. He was in the stands watching the NFL’s annual college player combine over the weekend at Indianapolis. The NFL Combine is where potential pro draft choices showcase their ability to run fast, jump high, and sparkle in a series of drills in front of all 32 teams. The Jets coach apparently was so bored by the proceedings that he was caught briefly napping during the Combine. That’s OK, coach! I tried to watch about 15 minutes of that stuff over the weekend. It definitely works better than No-Doze in putting you to sleep. Zzzz. The NFL Combine can serve as a launching point for an athletically-gifted player – especially those coming from the smaller schools. The combine also reveals weaknesses which might negatively affect your potential NFL draft value, too. Former Arkansas Razorback quarterback Taylen Green is basking in ESPN’s rays of praise Taylen Green was already ESPN’s #7 quarterback heading into the NFL Combine last weekend. After an impressive showing, he may be moving up some teams’ draft board. Taylen Green ran a speedy 4.36 second 40-yard dash. Zoom! He established a quarterback record with a 43 ½ inch vertical leap. Is he playing basketball or football? Green posted a broad jump of 11′ 2”. Why is that important for a quarterback? Welcome to the unique world of the annual NFL Scouting Combine. Taylen Green was quarterback for an Arkansas Razorback football team which finished only 2-10 last year. He passed for 19 touchdowns but also had 11 interceptions. Taylen Green averaged more than 3.13 seconds from the time he received the snap until making a throw while at the University of Arkansas. That was 4th slowest among all 136 FBS major college starting quarterbacks last season. He must to trim that statistic by a full half-second in the NFL, or he will be pummeled regularly by speedy on-coming defenders. Taylen Green may go on to have a terrific NFL career. But, then again…??? Let’s remember a few recent first-round quarterbacks flops after being praised by the ESPN Draft Day hype train! ESPN’s enthusiastic NFL insider Mel “Hyper” Kiper practically drooled when fawning over former first round quarterback Kyler Murray in 2019. Arizona selected Murray with the first overall pick in that year’s NFL draft. Seven years later, the Arizona Cardinals are desperately trying to trade Kyler Murray away. He has led the team to just one playoff game over seven seasons and his contract will pay him $40 million this season. Good luck trying to make any deal, Cardinals! In 2021, the NFL Combine shined the athletic spotlight brightly onto North Dakota State quarterback Trey Lance. He wowed the scouts at the combine with an exceptional ability to run fast, jump high, and leap over tall buildings in a single bound. (Oops, wrong guy!) The San Francisco 49ers talked themselves into selecting Trey Lance with the 3rd overall selection in the first round of the 2021 draft. Sadly, Lance was a flop in his first three seasons in San Francisco. He was traded to the Dallas Cowboys in 2024. Lance was cut loose by the Cowboys after just one year in Big D. The Los Angeles Chargers signed Lance last season to serve as a back-up to starter Justin Herbert. Don’t forget about 2023’s NFL Combine star quarterback Anthony Richardson Much like Arkansas quarterback Taylen Green, Anthony Richardson became the darling of the NFL Combine in 2023. Richardson had finally become the starting QB for the Florida Gators in his third year at the school. He made a number of poor decisions behind center that season but was often bailed-out by his uncanny running skills. The Gators went a pedestrian 6-6, but the team’s quarterback convinced himself that he was ready to play in the NFL. An impressive showing at the 2023 NFL Combine helped to elevate draft hype about Anthony Richardson. He would vault all the way into the 4th overall selection by the Indianapolis Colts three years ago in 2023. After just three NFL seasons, the Colts are now practically begging someone to take Richardson off their hands right now. Anthony Richardson has started only 15 games in three years. He has more career interceptions (13) than touchdowns (11). Richardson suffered concussions in his rookie season from frequently running with the football. Since then, he has dealt with a myriad of injuries. Anthony Richardson has one season left on his rookie NFL contract which pays him “only” $8.5 million in 2026. With a relatively affordable price tag, Richardson is likely to be traded to another team willing to give him a second chance. The NFL Draft Combine nearly sunk 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy was the last college football player selected in the 2022 NFL draft. “Mr. Irrelevant” (the sarcastic nickname assigned to the final person selected in each year’s NFL draft) was a very accurate and successful quarterback for three seasons at Iowa State. However, Brock Purdy’s participation in that spring’s NFL Combine produced a pedestrian 4.84 second 40-yard dash and a lackluster 27” vertical leap. His perceived lack of athleticism caused Brock Purdy to drop further down the draft boards after an underwhelming showing at the NFL Combine. Five years later, “Mr. Irrelevant” is the 49er’s starting quarterback, has played in a Super Bowl and now earns $53 million per year. Moral of the story – Don’t place too much stock in the NFL Combine results when evaluating a future pro football player – especially at the quarterback position! The post Beware! The Worm Moon is upon us! appeared first on SwampSwamiSports.com.

Klatt wraps up the show with a rant about the now-set College Football Playoff schedule for next season. 0:00-1:51 Intro1:52-23:05 Stock watch23:06-34:21 MrBeast teases idea of giving East Carolina $100M to win a national championship34:22-36:15 North Dakota State decides its done dominating FCS and joins Mountain West36:16-38:19 Alabama may cancel their home-and-home with Ohio State for 2027/2838:20-44:59 CFP announces schedule for next season Learn more about your ad choices.

Eligibility drama hits college football as Ole Miss QB Trinidad Chambliss wins a preliminary injunction against the NCAA, while the Joey Aguilar case looms with a different eligibility argument.BYU immediately dismisses WR Parker Kingston after a serious rape charge, highlighting how BYU's honor code creates consequences unlike almost anywhere else.Realignment news accelerates with North Dakota State jumping to FBS and Sacramento State paying its way into the MAC, raising major questions about travel, finances, and the future structure of college football—possibly splitting into an upper and lower FBS.Plus, preseason power ratings updates (and early market comparisons), coaching carousel “report card” reactions, and an SMU defensive staff shakeup as Scott Symons heads to the Dallas Cowboys.
Coach is joined by Tony Barnhart for a deep dive into the evolving landscape of college football, specifically focusing on the transformative role of artificial intelligence in game preparation. The duo discusses how AI could revolutionize the analysis of transfer portal data and the breakdown of opponent film, potentially condensing hours of manual labor by graduate assistants into mere minutes of automated processing. They also explore current legal challenges facing the NCAA, specifically regarding player eligibility and the impact of Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) on the sport’s traditional structure. The conversation shifts to historical reflections and conference dynamics, featuring a look back at the career of Archie Manning and his record-breaking performances in the late 1960s. Barnhart shares insights from his upcoming book on the SEC, highlighting the leadership of influential figures like former commissioner Roy Kramer and athletic director Vince Dooley. The segment concludes with a look at modern conference realignment, including North Dakota State’s move to the Mountain West and ongoing debates about the potential expansion of the College Football Playoff to a 24-team format, which could signal the end of traditional conference championship games.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The coach is joined by reporters Tony Barnhart and Dennis Dodd to analyze a major 24-team playoff proposal from Big Ten Commissioner Tony Pettiti. Described as a "24-team compromise," the plan suggests expanding to 16 teams by 2026 or 2027, eventually reaching 24 teams shortly thereafter. The proposal is designed to address many of the SEC’s long-standing concerns, such as the elimination of automatic qualifiers and the potential removal of conference championship games, which the memo refers to as "artificial". The reporters highlight that under this format, the top 23 ranked teams plus one Group of Five representative would make the field, significantly increasing access for all conferences while potentially generating enough revenue to offset the loss of traditional title games. The discussion also explores the logistical advantages and broader implications of the 24-team model. A key feature of the proposal is that the top eight seeds would receive a bye and be guaranteed a home game, with the first two rounds played on campus sites. This addresses the medical concern of student-athletes playing too many games, as the maximum number of games a team would play remains 17, the same as the current 12-team model. Beyond the playoff, the group touches on "workarounds" in the NIL landscape, such as Texas Tech’s strategy of leveraging apparel deals and media partners to funnel money to athletes. They conclude by noting North Dakota State's move to the FBS and the ongoing struggle for the NCAA to secure a legislative "fix" from Congress for issues like athlete employment status.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

That Super Bowl was a stinker…but at least Bad Bunny showed up. We break down everything from a flat game and a halftime show that saved the night, to Cardi B and Stefon Diggs seemingly splitting in real time. There was a streaker, Hall of Famers reminding us we're getting old, and somehow Pete Rose catching strays. Then things get weird. 49ers DT Keion White reportedly gets shot in the ankle after a post–Super Bowl club altercation with Lil Baby. We debate who actually had the worst Super Bowl night during Sip, Chug, Drainpour. And yes, we ask the important legal question about streakers. Lou Holtz joins us for a Winter Olympics update that includes: • Ski jumpers allegedly injecting hyaluronic acid to gain suit advantages • His thoughts on the Super Bowl halftime show • Team USA taking silver in curling • Why Skeleton is completely unhinged • And whether hockey neck guards are going to feel weird forever Plus: • North Dakota State officially making the jump to FBS • Pitchers and catchers reporting (hope season is here) • The Rangers' incredible Nolan Ryan bloody jersey giveaway • ScottSki45 Stat of the Week • Giannis catching heat over his partnership with Kalshi • NBA expansion drama and why Seattle better not get their colors messed with • Artemi Panarin's jersey number situation in LA • And beer recaps to close it out It was chaotic. It was ridiculous. It was absolutely a show.
The greatest program in FCS is moving to the Mountain West, effective this upcoming season. North Dakota State won 10 of the past 15 FCS national titles and decided to try something new. It's a huge move, giving FBS a new contender for the Group of 6 spot in the Playoff and reshaping the competitive pecking order in FCS. But we've still got many questions to talk through:* Why now? NDSU had batted around this idea for years* Does the money make sense? (NDSU probably wouldn't be doing it if it didn't, but the additional expenses will be millions per year)* Why the Mountain West and not the new Pac-12?* How good will the Bison be right away?* Is it ever right to be bored of success?* Is it time to update our priors on how hard it is for teams to successfully leap from FCS to FBS?* TRIVIA: Which seven states still don't have an FBS team?Also, we talk about the college elements of the Super Bowl and Bobby Hauck's very brief retirement from coaching.

There will be a new face in the FBS for the 2026 season as FCS powerhouse North Dakota State is making the leap. The 10-time FCS National Champions will be joining the Mountain West Conference. Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey discuss if they think this is the right move for the Bison. The guys chat about what exactly the team is giving up to make this move, what they have to gain, and if they think North Dakota State can be successful. Plus, they also discuss the latest in the Charles Bediako case. He is no longer eligible to play for Alabama after a judge denied his most recent injunction request. Andy and Godfrey discuss what this means going forward.Then, the guys take a quick look at the NFL in comparison to college football. Sam Darnold culminated his redemption story with a Super Bowl ring this season. Once the third pick in the NFL Draft for the New York Jets, Darnold struggled for much of his career. After being a back-up in San Francisco, he found success as a starter for the Minnesota Vikings and now is a Super Bowl champion with the Seattle Seahawks. Andy and Godfrey look at the college landscape and discuss if there are any transfer quarterbacks that may have a similar redemption story in 2026. Later, the guys continue to look at the transfer quarterbacks, but through a different lens. Last episode, Godfrey compared Fernando Mendoza to a certified, pre-owned Honda. This was meant as a compliment. Now, they look at the transfer quarterbacks for 2026 and compare seven QBs to used cars. Find out what the comparisons are for Rocco Becht, Kenny Minchey, Drew Mestemaker, Austin Simmons, DJ Lagway, Darian Mensah and Byrum Brown.Get your college football news here with College Football Enquirer.0:00:00 - North Dakota State heads to the FBS26:12 - Charles Bediako no longer eligible34:17 - What transfer QB can have a Darnold-like redemption season49:30 - Comparing transfer QBs to used cars49:45 - Rocco Becht comparison52:24 - Kenny Minchey comparison54:10 - Drew Mestemaker comparison55:43 - Austin Simmons comparison56:51 - DJ Lagway comparison58:58 - Darian Mensah comparison1:00:06 - Byrum Brown comparison Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

The Packers made their biggest coaching move of the offseason, parting ways with wide receivers coach Ryan Mahaffey and hiring Penn State's Noah Pauley as his replacement. This isn't just any hire—Pauley is a rising star who interviewed for the 49ers offensive coordinator job last year, developed multiple high draft picks including Jayden Higgins and Jalen Knoll, and perhaps most importantly, coached Christian Watson at North Dakota State from 2019-2022. As a Minnesota native who grew up a Packers fan, Pauley brings both elite credentials and genuine passion for the green and gold. In this episode, we break down why this coaching change signals the front office's willingness to make bold moves when necessary, explore the potential impact on Watson's development and Matthew Golden's playing time, and discuss whether this hire indicates deeper frustrations with receiver development. We also cover extensive NFL news including the Eagles' continued organizational chaos with AJ Brown trade speculation intensifying, international games coming to Melbourne and Rio, Super Bowl injury updates, and the media industry's massive layoffs at the Washington Post. Plus, we examine free agency targets across the league, NFC North coaching changes, and why watching divisional rivals implode might be the best part of the offseason. Whether you're excited about Pauley's track record with Watson or skeptical about another coaching shuffle, this hire represents a clear departure from business as usual in Green Bay.
