Golf is and will always be among the most popular sports in the world with many major tournaments held annually, but none compare to The Masters. The 2018 Masters Tournament was particularly exciting as evidenced by the 18% jump over last year’s ratings - the main reason for that is due to the return of Tiger Woods. He may not have won, but the fact that someone who was considered to have “fallen from grace” last year returned to the sport at all is worth celebrating. In this episode, Lindsay and Whitney share their takeaways from this year’s Masters Tournament. Not only did they react to the wins and losses, but they also provide their opinions regarding some of the more obvious social issues being displayed on live TV.

How’s your bracket so far? Well, the girls’ brackets are a certified mess after what happened over the weekend. It’s crazy to think that on the one hand, it’s exciting to see underdogs like Loyola rising against top caliber teams, and on the other your supposed “final four” team has been more or less disappointing this season. We don’t know who will get to the finals, but we are sure of one thing: This pod’s hosts aren’t bracket experts.

Upset after upset after upset. That’s how the first week of March Madness was so far, with everyone’s brackets bleeding red with all the red marks. Even the girls’ brackets weren’t safe from the onslaught of upsets. But, upsets are nothing to be upset about! What’s great about upsets is how it really brings back the unpredictability of sports, and it shows even the most reliable sports data is prone to error. The same unpredictability reminds us why we love sports! In this episode, the girls discuss the incredible first week of March Madness. They go over some of their picks and how their favorites fared, they analyze some of the reasons why the upsets happened, and reflect on how college sports can sometimes be more exciting compared to pros.

We all love predicting how a sports season will go, but no other month makes it more fun than March Madness. We’re talking about making brackets and all the analytics and science involved. It’s a deep rabbit hole if you really get into it, but it’s also fun as you get to know a thing or two about how sports analysts do their job and it will make you realize they’re not just making things up. In this episode, the girls go over team predictions, free agencies, contract extensions, and their own brackets.

We are back, and we’re really into the Winter Olympics this year. It may be cold in Pyeongchang, but the hype is pretty hot! From the funny frozen faces of the ice skating competition to the high-risk nature of bobsledding, this year’s Winter Olympics surpassed our expectations. It’s just amazing what athletes can do in the snow, especially when you know how difficult it is to master a sport on dry land. In this episode, we discuss a lot about the happenings in this year’s Winter Olympics, from the amazing stunts and athletes all the way to the drama and stories both on the venue and on social media.

The Super Bowl is over, and the Philadelphia Eagles won over the New England Patriots despite having the odds stacked against them. The crowd favorite was always the team with the dynasty, but the Eagles made sure they put a stop to it. The game itself had so many offensive plays, with both teams trying to outscore the other, but the lack of defense from the Patriots caused their downfall. Despite our comments on the Super Bowl having a weak momentum this year, we are happy to say it ended in a spectacular fashion; a perfect way to end a great season. In this episode, we discuss some of the highlights during the Super Bowl. We put the spotlight on what made the Patriots lose, the crazy and dangerous fan celebrations in Philly, the controversial plays and substitutions, and why the Patriots losing was a good thing for the next football season.

GOS -We're Back for 2018 & the NFL Playoffs! The girls are back for another year of sports, and what better way to start their first episode for 2018 than reacting to the crazy college football finals? It’s definitely the kind of game we’ve all been looking forward to, and while they did predict this victory early in the season, that’s not to take away from Georgia fans. The championship hype was all over that stadium, and Georgia fought and emerged as one of the best this season, but they just couldn’t finish. Saban and Alabama are just too good at this point. More than the college football finals, the girls also discuss the mind-blowing Saints-Vikings game that literally erupted into chaos when time ran out, why rookie Juju Schuster is our official celebration rookie of the year, and why Tom Brady is still fantastic despite being underpaid. They also explain why the 2017 rookie class might be the best the NFL has ever seen. “Time in Atlanta has started to move at a glacial pace." – Whitney Melancon Highlights of Today’s Episode: Why Atlanta's been on a rough patch since 2017. What stood out during the college Bowl games. Their thoughts on John Gruden being back with the Raiders. Their reaction to the Saints-Vikings game. Why just having a great quarterback in the NFL doesn't guarantee a championship. Universities where their football rookies are making an impact. The teams they would like to see in the Superbowl.

Weekends in college football just continue to exceed our expectations this year, and we think it’s about to get even more fun with the playoffs looming. Speaking of playoffs, we finally have our college football playoff teams, and we believe the selection is just right. There were teams that statistically had a better year that weren’t included, though. Makes you wonder how the committee decides these things. Coaching rotations are still ongoing, and we seriously can’t believe the deal Jimbo Fisher had with Texas A&M. We think it’s more egregious than what Roger Goodell has, and that’s saying something! And for the first time since the restrictions were removed, we actually think the celebrations are about to peak, what with all the crazy stuff they’ve been doing on the field. “The committee really values wins and losses. Wins and losses matter." – Lindsay Grinstead Highlights of Today’s Episode: Why the committee got the college playoff team selection right. Why people are better than computers when it comes to playoffs team selection. Should USC be more upset than Ohio State for not being included in the bracket? Jimbo Fisher’s ridiculous 10-year contract with Texas A&M and more coaching rotations. Why the recruiting in Texas is so good. Are players actually celebrating too much? Lindsay’s MVP & LVP of the Week: This week’s MVP award goes to – The NFL for their My Cause, My Cleats program. This week’s LVP award goes to – New York Giants organization for being a huge mess this season and the unceremonious benching of Eli Manning.

This week’s LVP award goes to – Scott Frost going to Nebraska. This news broke during the UCF-Memphis game which could've waited until UCF savored their victory first; Rob Gronkowski took a cheap shot against Tre'davious White. Love the show?

And just like that, the regular season for college football is over. So many fun matchups and much more drama both in and out of the game. The time for playoffs is almost at hand, and we’re excited to see who comes out on top this season. Before we get to that, the girls are here to go over the crazy things that happened over the past week. The coaching carousel, Michael Crabtree and Aqib Talib brawling during game, upsets, and Cristiano Ronaldo’s updated bust, last week was definitely one of the most exciting weeks in sports. In this episode, we discuss the coaches who got hired, fired, and those who deserved it. Seriously, the stuff that’s happening off the field is so much more dramatic. We place our bets on which team makes the playoffs this year and the matchups we want to see. We also dive in on this week’s best NFL Celebrations which we think get better every week. “There is still so much up in the air with who is going to make the playoffs." – Lindsay Grinstead Highlights of Today’s Episode: Why Rivalry Weekend kicked off last Friday. Why Auburn winning over Alabama matters when it comes to the playoffs. Would the Committee take a two-loss SEC team? Our guess on the four teams that make the playoffs.

Nothing makes any sport better than having rivalries. Federer and Nadal, Pacquiao and Marquez, Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers, rivalries make games more exciting and could be enough to fill an otherwise empty stadium. In the world of college football, they take rivalries to the next level with some teams being rivals for more than a hundred years! Not only that, but these teams also play for cool and sometimes really, really weird items. You wouldn’t believe the bizarre history behind these trinkets and tokens. Other than rivalries, we discuss the issue with Chip Kelly and the Gators, the ubiquitous Jon Gruden to Tennessee rumor, and our pod-favorite Serena Williams. We also celebrate the new touchdown celebrations we’ve seen, and boy are they getting wilder! “A rivalry is a rivalry and wild things happen at rivalry games." – Whitney Melancon Highlights of Today’s Episode: Weird and cool items teams are fighting for this week and the stories behind them. Really, really OLD rivalries in College Football. Why playing for Paul Bunyan’s axe was one of the craziest traditions. Chip Kelly Watch is in full effect for Gator Nation.

We had another week of exciting football both on and off the field, especially the latter. Things are getting hot and messy with the Gators not only getting gutted by Georgia, but also by firing their head coach. We think McElwain’s issue needs to have a second look, but we’ll get to that later. Moving forward, we can’t believe Alabama isn’t the number one team, and the torch was handed to Georgia. We all know Alabama is still the team to beat. Rather, Nick Saban is still the coach to beat. We think the Big Ten needs a “Bad Day” montage and we suggest a few coaches who need to get their act together if they don’t want to end up being another McElwain. We also highlight funny NFL celebrations and praise athletes outside of football. "Everyone is trying to compete with Nick Saban." – Lindsay Grinstead Highlights of Today’s Episode: Why the season is just so bizarre so far and why our predictions were totally off. The Big Ten sucked so bad last Saturday. Why offensive battles are better than defensive battles in football. Who we think wins this weekend. Issues for the Florida Gators issues. The reason behind McElwain getting fired needs to be looked into. How do you beat Nick Saban? Funny NFL Celebrations involving Travis Kelce and a pretend potato sack race. This Week’s Coach on the Hot Seat Award: Ben McAdoo of the New York Giants. One of the most uninspiring coach we’ve ever seen. Dirk Koetter of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. For just being bad at his job. Kevin Sumlin of Texas A&M. November has always been Sumlin’s worst month. Lindsay’s MVP & LVP of the Week: This week’s MVP award goes to – Shalane Flanagan for being the first American woman to win the New York Marathon since 1977. This week’s LVP award goes to – Jameis Winston for doing a really disgusting pre-game speech.

Welcome to Girls on the Sideline, where we talk about the hottest in sports! The wonderful thing about football this year is anyone can beat anyone. That was proven last week when unranked teams beat contenders and reputable teams didn’t make the coveted top 25 for the first time in so many years! Some say it’s crazy; we think it’s exciting! More than just football, we also discuss the really disappointing loss of the US Soccer team to Trinidad & Tobago, which we have to say is so embarrassing. We didn’t make the Olympics last time, and now we couldn’t even make the World Cup. It’s really sad seeing the hype was real and fan turnout was so much better this year than any year we remembered. "We live in a world where UCF and USF are ranked teams, and Florida and Florida State are not." – Lindsay Grinstead Highlights of Today’s Episode: Kevin Sumlin finally showed us he’s a capable coach. Tributes to Tom Petty will always be a great thing. Why Gators fans were so awesome despite losing to Texas A&M. Why we think Florida is not utilizing their players’ full potential. The coach we think could be the next Tom Herman. The PAC-12 didn’t fare well this weekend. Why we shouldn’t leave rankings to fan votes. Aaron Rodgers and his bad injury. The country’s biggest sports embarrassment. Lindsay’s MVP & LVP of the Week: This week’s MVP award goes to – Chief of Police who invited JT Brown and his teammates of the Tampa Bay Lightning to see what a typical police officer’s day’s like instead of condemning them for protesting. This week’s LVP award goes to – The play-by-play commentator for Rams-Jaguars game who was obviously reading the teleprompter. Whitney MVP & LVP of the Week: This week’s MVP award goes to – Adrian Peterson who had an unbelievably explosive night, telling fans he’s not done yet.

Welcome to Girls on the Sideline, where we take on the hot issues in sports and everything else related to it. We had a lot of bad things happen last week. To start things off, we address the issue with Cam Newton and his sexist “joke” to a female reporter. It’s 2017, women are allowed to like and actually know their way around sports! It’s not even the remark itself, but the way he said it that makes our blood boil. Speaking of things that make the blood boil, our girl Jemele Hill got suspended recently for her controversial tweets. All we can say is we’re more than happy to have her as a third host if she wants! Moving away from the “bad stuff,” we put the spotlight on college football due to HUGE upsets and some SCC teams not making the top 25 cut for the first time in years. Despite the bad news, this year’s football season is turning out to be more fun than we expected! "I need a separation of state and sport." – Whitney Melancon Highlights of Today’s Episode: Cam Newton’s sexist remark to a female reporter regarding routes, his excuse, and why it made things worse. The Harvey Weinstein sexual abuse issue and John Moffat’s infuriating Pro Cam comment. Jemele Hill’s two-week suspension over her “boycott” tweet. Is ESPN overcompensating with Jemele’s suspension? Jimmy Jones’ threat to “kneelers” SCC Top 25 polls shaking up, huge upsets. Why Georgia is still the only team who can beat Atlanta. The Mark Rick we saw last week isn’t the UGA one. Three college football contenders fall out of the Top 25. Why the NFL right now feels like every team has a chance. This Week’s Kevin Sumlin Coach on the Hot Seat Award: Not a coach on the hot seat, but a hot seat take: The Texas A&M for hosting a game without running water in their stadium. Lindsay’s MVP & LVP of the Week: This week’s MVP award goes to – David Letterman, for his hysterical speech during the unveiling of Peyton Manning's statue.

Welcome to Girls on the Sideline! This week, the girls focus on college football, scandals, weird coaches, and dominant teams. They discuss the shocking loss of LSU to Troy University that happened over the weekend and spark the question: Did this loss prove Ed Oregon is struggling as head coach? They also discuss Alabama’s dominance and how they think there is an abundance of head coaching changes in the SEC because of their dominance as well as how that 41-0 loss by Tennessee to Georgia was bad, but what made it worse was coach Butch Jones’ press conference. Highlights of Today’s Episode: Florida and LSU right now are pretty bad. Georgia Tech might be the only team who can beat Alabama. Why Charlie Strong is killing it in USF. The controversy involving the NCAA, Adidas, University of Louisville, players, and the FBI. Do scandals affect how fans feel about collegiate sports? How big a business is college sports? How many hours per week does a typical division 1 college player devote to their sport? Why Rick Pitino's trending on twitter.

We also talk about Kevin Sumlin and why we want Florida games to be exciting again. Highlights of Today’s Episode: Florida State’s 1-0 record and they had a bye week. Bummer. Nobody expected a 47-21 ending on a Clemson-Louisville matchup. Unbelievable Mississippi State vs LSU game. Is this a sign of things to come for LSU? The USC-Texas game was almost an upset and Texas isn’t even ranked. Is there an East Coast sports media bias? Why Lindsay just won’t watch a West Coast game. The two games the girls look forward to this week. This Week’s Les Miles Coach on the Hot Seat Award: Kevin Sumlin because Texas A&M is a mess right now.

This week on the Girls on the Sideline pod, Lindsay and Whitney rave and rant about the best and worst thing that’s happened in sports. College Football week has officially started and right off the bat we have some pretty exciting first games. Granted, they weren’t as exciting as last year, but great nonetheless. Some of the best things that happened were huge upsets and near upsets that made us look forward to unlikely rivals this season, a funny moment involving Les Miles, his mic, and a bathroom break, and we got introduced to Cam Newton’s under-the-radar brother. We’ve also seen lots of blown leads, a new record for biggest upset ever, and Jimbo Fisher’s weird look on game day. Highlights of Today’s Episode: Upsets and near upsets were surprisingly really exciting. Tom Herman was too hyped and lost his first game to Maryland, an unranked Big 10 team. Les Miles had a funny moment where he looks like he forgot they were taping live and had a mic on him. Why some are saying Alabama is so good, they could be bad for college football. Jimbo Fisher’s look on game day. A record was set in college football this week by Howard University. Why Cam Newton’s younger brother will be on everyone’s radar now. This Week’s Les Miles Coach on the Hot Seat Award: Kevin Sumlin for blowing a huge lead against UCLA Lindsay’s MVP & LVP of the Week: This week’s MVP award goes to – Tennessee Garbage Can props for becoming the butt of many jokes this season. This week’s LVP award goes to – Gators, we did not recognize the team who played because they played so bad against Dallas.
