The Sacramento Bee's Joe Davidson joined the show to talk Sacramento State and Local High School Football.

On this episode of The Bluebloods, Zach McKinnell and Timothy Rosario from FCS Football Central preview the biggest FCS games on the Week 1 slate. The duo discusses the massive Top 15 matchup between No. 15 Sacramento State and No. 3 South Dakota State, as well as an important Patriot League matchup between No. 14 Lehigh and No. 25 Richmond. We also make our "Superdog" upset picks of the week and preview multiple other key Week 1 matchups. All this and more right here on The Bluebloods!

Ben, Chad, and Brendan are back to preview Sac. St.

Will Saturday be another story of the "farm kids" from South Dakota being underestimated by a bunch of thoroughbred athletes from California?The Dan Jackson Era and Chase Mason era at South Dakota State opens with a likely sold-out home game against Sacramento State, a 3-9 team from last year with over 50 FBS transfers and a brand new coach that is rated No. 15 in the preseason polls.With so many new starters on each side, it is tough to accurately predict how the game may unfold, but Sioux Falls Live sports editor and decade-long SDSU reporter Matt Zimmer takes a stab with Happy Hour host John Gaskins in a 74-minute chat over cocktails at Gateway Lounge.But Zim pulls from over 20 years of covering South Dakota college football teams who lock horns with talented rosters from talent-rich states like California, while also unveiling some new Jackrabbits FBS transfers you should expect to see and maybe shine on Saturday and all season long. What exactly can we expect, especially from SDSU's new starting quarterback, Chase Mason, who has undeniably supreme physical talent but has not played a full game as a starting signal caller in six years, back to his junior year in high school?Meanwhile, No. 4 South Dakota opens 2025 at FBS No. 22 Iowa State, who impressively finished a 24-21 prize fight win over No. 17 Kansas State in Ireland on Saturday. How much of a factor will jet lag from a trip to Ireland factor in USD's favor, not to mention this being a "sandwich" game for the Cyclones between rivals KSU and Iowa (next week)? What kind of upset threat can USD mount, with its own litany of transfer replacements but also with a guiding light in senior quarterback in Aidan Bouman, a former Cyclone with plenty to prove against his former team and NFL scouts?Plus, a glimpse into the "Washington State Jackrabbits," led by former SDSU coach Jimmy Rogers, who brought his staff and 16 players with him to the Palouse. The Cougars, who play Idaho on national television late Saturday, have shut down practices to the media after reported inner-team practice scuffles.Speaking of former Jacks, quarterback Mark Gronowski is Iowa's "Million Dollar Man" (or $2 Million Man, depending on who you believe). What should we expect of the former Walter Payton Award winner in the stacked Big Ten, and in what way will life be more different and difficult for him compared to the FCS?Then, there's No. 8 Alabama, led by former USF coach Kalen DeBoer, who starts his second season on the road at Florida State. Why should there be reason for the Crimson Tide to improve after their first four-loss season in 17 years?Finally, how much more secure should the Minnesota Vikings feel about their QB2 situation now that they dumped Sam Howell and made room for North Dakota State legend Carson Wentz, who joins his sixth NFL team in six years?

The New Look Jackrabbits will hit the gridiron this Saturday for their debut with First time Head Coach Dan Jackson. Ton's of Storylines and new tidbits to cover for this year, we'll go over a few as we sit sown with Jackrabbits Announcer Ryan Howlett.Fans Nation Network

This type of rhetoric, embraced by DEI ideology, is nothing short of racial essentialism—and dangerously divisive.   Victor Davis Hanson explains why such rhetoric threatens America's identity as a successful multiracial democracy—and why ethnic and racial chauvinism must be rejected—on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”   “Joy Reid is basically saying that black people are cognitively superior to other people. I wish this was an isolated incident. But remember, we've had this controversy before, about the president of Sacramento State, Luke Wood, who, in his past, was an African American intellectual activist, as he self-describes himself. And he said he wanted to ”eliminate”—that's a bad word to use, given the history of it in the 20th century—“eliminate whiteness.” Again, no repercussions.   “We have zero tolerance when racists, who are white, say such things about other groups. But in a truly multiracial, tolerant society, people who not only attack a group, collectively, and stereotype it, but they do so from positions of influence and power—like The New Yorker magazine or a former MSNBC anchor—they can do a great deal of damage, unless they're called out for it.”

KC and Kyle spend hour three talking with CBS13's Jake Gadon and 957 The Game's Daryle "The Guru" Johnson.

A city that can't manage its own affairs was always bound for trouble in hosting the 2028 Olympics, and now President Trump has given progressives the excuse they need to bail out. California's redistricting process was never nonpartisan, now it'll just be worse. Newsom is ready for coal, Sacramento State's president hopes to “eliminate whiteness,” the Los Angeles Times can't use the words “illegal immigrant,” and the fascinating secret of Pasadena-born celebrity chef Julia Child.

Send us a textIn this episode, Jeremy Neisser sits down with two seasoned college athletics marketers: Scott Peace (Senior Associate AD for Revenue Generation at UNI) and Kelly Wilga (Assistant AD for Marketing at Sacramento State). Together, they dive into what it takes to successfully plan and execute a football marketing campaign.From budget discussions and scheduling promotions to engaging students and running creative, on-brand theme nights, this episode is packed with actionable insights. They explore how even teams with limited resources can deliver unforgettable fan experiences and improve attendance through collaboration, strategy, and bold creativity.TakeawaysStart football marketing planning early — often as early as March.Prioritize student engagement, especially for early-season games.Build partnerships across campus to extend your budget and reach.Theme nights and experiential promotions (like hot tubs or tattoo artists) can dramatically boost attendance.Always evaluate the ROI of long-standing marketing traditions — and be willing to scrap or evolve them.Focus on controllable factors of fan experience from “driveway to driveway.”Giveaways still work, especially when they're creative and unique.Use athletics as a platform to highlight broader university initiatives.Even with a tight budget, you can get creative and make a big impact.Don't accept the limitations of a small team — lean on relationships, data, and smart execution.Memorable Quotes

Read his recent story: “Return of the bag man: NIL clearinghouse could revive paying college athletes under table.” (Of course, also read Godfrey's old classic.)* Playoff expansion might be stalemated, and there's a surprising group of people at the heart of the resistance: SEC head coaches.

He's joining Mike Bibby's coaching staff. As a proud Sac State grad/Hornet, Moser is flabbergasted. More than anything else, it's representative of the shifting collegiate sports landscape in the NIL era.

We started with the Browns' surplus of quarterbacks and their history of QBs, including Josh Johnson's extensive list of teams. Jerry's final update covered the Yankees' loss to the Orioles (featuring O'Hearn's home run, leading to a snack cake discussion), the Mets' 19-run victory over the Nationals (with Nimmo's 9 RBIs), and the tense Butler-Brooks matchup in the NBA playoffs. The Cavaliers' dominant win over the Heat was heavily criticized. The Eagles' White House visit included Trump's desire for the regular kickoff and his mention of "Big Dom." The "Moment of the Day" featured Derek Carr's comments on critics and a caller's remark about C-Lo. Finally, Shaq's unpaid GM role at Sacramento State's basketball program was discussed, prompting the idea of Boomer as GM for Maryland.

Hour 1 We opened with the Mets' high-scoring game against the Nationals despite Juan Soto's average performance. The discussion touched on Shedeur Sanders' draft prospects, a story about Boomer's draft experience, and the expected media attention for Sanders in Cleveland. The social media influence on the draft was also mentioned. The NBA playoffs were highlighted, featuring a tense matchup between Butler and Brooks and harsh criticism of the Heat-Cavaliers game. The Orioles defeated the Yankees, with O'Hearn apologizing for an on-mic curse after his home run. Nimmo had a grand slam and 9 RBIs for the Mets. Cohen isn't concerned about Soto's slow start. The Eagles visited the White House, and there was a mention of Belichick's disruptive CBS interview. Hour 2 This hour covers reactions to Shedeur Sanders' draft position, including a past prediction that he wouldn't be a high pick and the fact that even Tom Brady's mentorship didn't sway the Raiders. Boomer's popular take on Sanders was mentioned. In baseball, the Mets beat the Nationals in a game where a position player ended up pitching, and the Yankees lost to the Orioles despite Volpe's birthday RBI. Altuve prefers not to lead off when playing left field. Bills GM Beane defended his team's decisions on the radio. The Eagles' White House visit included Trump's appreciation for "Big Dom." The Knicks need to win to avoid another trip to Detroit. Lastly, Gio will be filmed for a golf documentary, and a caller discussed Belichick at UNC. Hour 3 We start with the revelation that Jordon Hudson's mother manages a sex toy shop, adding intrigue to her relationship with Bill Belichick. The Knicks need to win their game tonight to get rest before potentially facing Boston, with the betting odds suggesting the series is likely over. Jerry's update highlighted the Mets' continued dominance over the Nationals, with Nimmo having another strong game. Barkley discussed officiating in the playoffs, and Adam Schein questioned the Browns drafting Shedeur Sanders after already drafting a QB. Derek Carr spoke about his injury and societal negativity. Trump's comments during the Eagles' White House visit included remarks about Saquon Barkley, Taylor Swift, and the "Tush Push." There's further discussion about Belichick's girlfriend and concerns at UNC. Giants fans are optimistic about RB Cam Skattebo, and a caller defended the Browns' QB strategy.

Jerry's final update covered the Yankees' loss to the Orioles (featuring O'Hearn's home run, leading to a snack cake discussion), the Mets' 19-run victory over the Nationals (with Nimmo's 9 RBIs), and the tense Butler-Brooks matchup in the NBA playoffs. The Cavaliers' dominant win over the Heat was heavily criticized. The Eagles' White House visit included Trump's desire for the regular kickoff and his mention of "Big Dom."

Today on the debut episode of Front Office Sports Today, #NFLonCBS host Nate Burleson joins the show to discuss massive changes sweeping the #NFL and why broadcasting is harder than playing.

The College Football Experience (@TCEonSGPN) on the Sports Gambling Podcast Network reacts to the wild news of Tennessee Volunteers starting QB Nico Iamaleava transferring out of Knoxville and Sacramento State leaving the Big Sky and the FCS for the FBS as an Independent in 2026. Pick Dundee aka (@TheColbyD) & Ryan McIntyre (@Moneyline_Mac) break down both scenarios and make sense of it all. Did Josh Heupel and the Tennessee Volunteers handle the situation the correct way with Imaaleava asking for double his salary? How will the Tennessee Volunteers look with Jake Merklinger and will they go after another QB in the portal and who might it be? Did Nico Iamaleava and his camp really botch this scenario or will he land at power school and make the money he was demanding? Did Bill Belichick and the North Carolina Tar Heels land a good one in South Alabama QB Gio Lopez? How will Maxx Crosby be as GM of the Eastern Michigan Eagles in the MAC? Could Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes make a run at Nico Iamaleava? Will the USC Trojans or UCLA Bruins be a team to lookout for?

The College Football Experience (@TCEonSGPN) on the Sports Gambling Podcast Network reacts to the wild news of Tennessee Volunteers starting QB Nico Iamaleava transferring out of Knoxville and Sacramento State leaving the Big Sky and the FCS for the FBS as an Independent in 2026. Pick Dundee aka (@TheColbyD) & Ryan McIntyre (@Moneyline_Mac) break down both scenarios and make sense of it all. Did Josh Heupel and the Tennessee Volunteers handle the situation the correct way with Imaaleava asking for double his salary? How will the Tennessee Volunteers look with Jake Merklinger and will they go after another QB in the portal and who might it be? Did Nico Iamaleava and his camp really botch this scenario or will he land at power school and make the money he was demanding? Did Bill Belichick and the North Carolina Tar Heels land a good one in South Alabama QB Gio Lopez? How will Maxx Crosby be as GM of the Eastern Michigan Eagles in the MAC? Could Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes make a run at Nico Iamaleava? Will the USC Trojans or UCLA Bruins be a team to lookout for? How will Brennan Marion hire work out at Sacramento State and what should we expect from the Sac State Hornets recent announcement of moving up to the FBS? Will Sacramento State eventually end up in the Big 12? Should the NCAA allow Sacramento State to play in the FCS Playoffs this year?

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.splitzoneduo.comMatt Brown, publisher of the Extra Points college sports business newsletter, joins Alex to discuss a handful of big business stories that are all coming to a head around the same time. In this show: * The status of the not-quite-finished House settlement * Do we believe in the NCAA's attempt to make sure that future “NIL” deals are really about the use of a player's name, image, or likeness? * How power conference schools might divide up the $20 million per year that they will share directly with their athletes * Why Group of 5 and FCS payments will not be what they seem * Is the settlement going to provide a big leg up for basketball schools? * Nebraska's AD will have the most interesting job in college sports * How might tariffs and a bad stock market affect athletic departments? * What about federal attacks on higher education? * Sacramento State is trying to move to FBS. It's questionable. Also, here's a cool offer for Split Zone Duo subscribers: 25 percent off a monthly or annual subscription to Extra Points by clicking this link. Matt's newsletter is an essential read for keeping up with the off-field developments that shape college football, and we're excited to have him stopping by.
