We took a break from our regularly-scheduled football programming to talk to Temple men's basketball coach Adam Fisher on this week's podcast. With the start of his fourth season on North Broad Street about a month away, Fisher joined the show to talk about the return of Derrian Ford, the details behind this year's schedule, and the addition of assistant coach Courtney Eldridge. And we got into plenty of football conversation, too – the Army loss, Saturday's upcoming road game at USF, and a closer look at why we feel Jaxon Smolik could be getting another shot to reclaim the starting quarterback job. Intro: 0:00 – 4:29 A review of the Army loss and why we could see Jaxon Smolik return: 4:29 – 14:13 Can Temple get out of its own way against a beatable USF team?: 14:13 – 29:35 Adam Fisher joins the show: 29:35 – 47:57 Mailbag: 47:57 – end

MLB Playoff picks, NFL Week 4 and College Football Week 5 headline Tuesday's WagerTalk Today! ⚾
It's a jam-packed segment as Nick Wize goes from calling out the USC broadcast of the Dante Moore hit to discussing a potentially important development for USF and college football. Nick plays the USC broadcaster's call and explains why he believes it was an inaccurate account of the play, then breaks down the Senate-passed college football legislation and why he sees a possible path for USF to the ACC if P4 conferences expand to 20 schools. Nick finishes by complaining about the ultimate Tampa Bay sports scheduling conflict: USF and the Bucs both play Thursday, while his 4th & Bull podcast may take him away from watching the Bucs live.
It's another wild edition of The Nick Wize Show as Nick takes on everything from the Buccaneers' brutal 0-3 start and the debate over whether fans or players are more frustrated to Tampa Bay's fall from NFC South preseason favorite to last in the latest division odds, with Jalon Daniels now getting his shot to spark hope. Nick also tackles why opposing fans are taking over Bucs games, responds to a listener accusing WDAE of “gaslighting” fans, and hears from Bucs and Raiders season-ticket holders about the NFL fan experience. On the college side, Nick and Tim debate an AP voter keeping Ole Miss ahead of Florida after the Gators' 52-28 win, Nick admits Tim may have been right about his 10-win prediction, and Nick argues over the Rays' potential Red Sox vs. Yankees matchup. The show also features Nick's reaction to the Dante Moore hit and USC broadcast call, plus a look at how the latest college football legislation could potentially open an ACC door for USF.
Rick Stroud doesn't mince words: the Bucs' 0-3 loss to Minnesota is the doomsday scenario come to life. Baker Mayfield left with a bloodied, dislocated thumb on his throwing hand after holding the ball too long on a desperate fourth-down conversion attempt, and now undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels — who struggled even in preseason snaps against real competition — is set to become QB1 for a stretch that includes Green Bay and a short week in Dallas. Rick and Steve dissect just how ugly the game itself was on both sides (both offenses managed roughly 25 total yards in the second half), question why Zach Robinson's offense keeps ignoring receivers like Ted Hurst after a 40-yard touchdown catch, and openly wonder how much the Bucs are missing Mike Evans' size and catch radius. They also debate whether the Glazers would ever consider an in-season coaching change (Mike Tomlin's name comes up, mostly hypothetically), and note the silver lining: the Bucs haven't played a single divisional game yet and remain just one game out of first in a wide-open, mediocre NFC South.The mood brightens considerably from there. The Rays wrapped a historic 162-game season with Junior Caminero playing all 162 games and hitting 40-plus homers in each of his first two full seasons, and Rick and Steve preview the layoff before the ALDS, including bullpen and rotation questions that hinge on whether they draw the Yankees or Red Sox. They also look ahead to a jam-packed weekend: the Lightning's regular-season opener at the Rangers, Saturday's home opener against Washington coinciding with the Rays' first playoff game, and a loaded college football slate topped by Florida's statement win over Ole Miss and USF's 4-0 start under Brian Hartline.Segments:Bucs fall to 0-3; Baker Mayfield's hand injury and the shift to undrafted rookie Jalen DanielsBreaking down two dreadful offenses and the special-teams punt-return touchdown that decided the gameIs this a Todd Bowles problem or a talent problem?

USF is 4-0, but is it time to adjust our expectations for the Bulls? Nick Wize breaks down USF's ugly win over Bowling Green and asks the question: If you knew before kickoff that the Bulls would throw for just 52 yards, lose the time-of-possession battle and turn the ball over twice, would you have predicted a USF victory? The offense continues to run through DJ Crowther and the running game, but how much can USF overcome with the current state of the offensive line? Is it fair to put the blame on Tim Beck, or are there only so many things an offensive coordinator can do when his offensive line is struggling? Nick also discusses why he believes USF is not running the table, why he hasn't put the Bulls in his Top 25, and what the realistic ceiling is for this team. Could USF win the American? And the biggest red flag? The line of scrimmage. Bowling Green bullied USF's offensive line, while the Bulls' defensive line struggled outside of Myles Bradley. BGSU's Myles Bradley was a major problem all night, making the physical battle up front impossible to ignore. USF is 4-0. But what exactly are the Bulls right now and what do they need to fix before the schedule gets tougher?
Nick Wize and Tim run through a loaded weekend of college football and NFL betting lines, making their picks and explaining the logic behind every selection. From Texas laying points at Tennessee and USF visiting Bowling Green to Ole Miss-Florida, Iowa-Michigan and LSU-Texas A&M, Nick breaks down the matchups before moving to the NFL slate. The Bucs-Vikings matchup gets special attention as Nick explains why he likes Tampa Bay's chances against Minnesota's blitz-heavy defense.

USF at Bowling Green by Tony T.USF QB Michael Van Buren is 53-of-80 for 639 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions, plus two rushing scores. RB D.J. Crowther has 182 yards and four touchdowns at 6.5 per carry. Joshua Porter and Bryson Rodgers have combined for 356 receiving yards. Bowling Green QB Jay Kastantin is 42-of-63 for 443 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. RB Austyn Dendy has 126 yards; TE Jeremiah Scoby leads with 14 catches and 24 targets.
Nick Wize is joined by USF Bulls Radio Pregame Host Rock Riley. The Bulls are heading to Bowling Green for a road matchup with the Falcons, and there are plenty of reasons to expect an interesting game plan from both sides. Brian Hartline had a great quote when asked about traveling to Bowling Green for their Homecoming: “We're going on a business trip, so I really don't have a whole lot of warm and fuzzy feelings when it comes to traveling anywhere.” The message is clear — USF is treating this like business. We break down the matchup, including why USF could lean heavily on the running game against a Bowling Green defense that is giving up a staggering 295.7 rushing yards per game. The Falcons' defensive line has also been their biggest weakness, creating an opportunity for the Bulls to establish the run. We also discuss why we expect Bowling Green to try to attack USF through the air, especially after some issues in the Bulls' secondary last week. Could this game have a similar strategic feel to the FIU matchup? Not necessarily the same score or stat line, but the way the two teams approach the game could look very familiar. USF vs. Bowling Green. We break down the matchup, the numbers, the game plan and what the Bulls need to do to come home with a win.

USF linebacker Zavier Hamilton joins Nick Wize on 4th & Bull to talk about his journey from Gulf Breeze to Tampa, why he chose the Bulls despite major offers from Arkansas, LSU, Auburn, Notre Dame and Florida State, and how much he's enjoying life off the field in Tampa. Zavier breaks down what changed defensively after halftime against Delaware State, how USF responded after giving up a 90-yard touchdown and 50-yard run, and what the Bulls' defense has done so well on third down. He also looks ahead to Bowling Green and discusses what the Falcons do well offensively. Plus, Zavier reflects on the dramatic final drive against Army, celebrates his first career sack against the Black Knights, explains what it's like when Josh Aldridge calls his number as a pass rusher, and talks about how Aldridge has helped take his game to another level. We also get to know Zavier away from football — his Gulf Breeze sports roots, his preference for noon vs. night games, what a typical gameday looks like, the reality of a normal day for a college football player, and his experience learning to play the piano.

USF is 3-0, but are there some red flags hiding behind the undefeated record? On this episode of 4th & Bull, Nick Wize recaps USF's win over Delaware State and breaks down the game by the numbers. We look at what went right, what didn't, and the areas that could become problems as the schedule gets tougher. Plus, a listener asks the question: Should USF be ranked? We discuss what the Bulls have accomplished through three games and what still needs to improve before they're viewed as a legitimate ranked team. We also dive into the biggest stats, trends, performances and storylines from the Delaware State game and what they could mean for USF moving forward.
Former Florida Gators defensive coordinator Geoff Collins joins Stadium and Gale for Game Day Eve ahead of Florida's SEC opener at Auburn.Coach Collins ran the Gators defense during the 2015 and 2016 SEC East title seasons. He's also been a head coach at Temple and Georgia Tech, and a coordinator at Mississippi State and UNC. Tonight he tells us how he'd game plan against Byrum Brown and Alex Golesh's offense, and what Aaron Philo is up against in his first road start at Jordan-Hare. We also get into whether Jon Sumrall's Gators can end their six-game road losing streak.Florida comes in 2-0 after wins over FAU (66-21) and Campbell (52-3), with Jadan Baugh on three straight 100-yard games and Vernell Brown III coming off a record punt return night. Auburn is 2-0 under Golesh, and he and Brown are the same pair that beat Florida with USF last year.Plus stories from Collins' time in Gainesville coaching Vernon Hargreaves, Keanu Neal, Jalen Tabor and more, his take on South Carolina ahead of Oct. 10, and his new college football breakdown channel.Game Day Eve is presented by Coastal Yacht Sales and Gallo Carwash.
Rick Stroud and Steve Versnick preview Sunday's Bucs home opener against Cleveland, and Rick doesn't hold back: this is a game the Buccaneers should win comfortably against a young, still-finding-itself Browns team under first-year head coach Todd Monken. They dig into Monken's history with Baker Mayfield in Cleveland, why last week's four fumbles (not interceptions) have to be cleaned up, and how a broken communicator in Baker's helmet contributed to the Week 1 mess. Rick's bottom line: turnovers are the only thing that beats the Bucs in this one.Then it's all Rays, and there's a lot to celebrate. Tampa Bay swept the Sacramento A's to push their winning streak to six, trimming the magic number over the Yankees to single digits with a five-game division lead and just ten to play. Drew Rasmussen picked up his 15th win a day after Nick Martinez got his — both with ERAs under three, an eye-popping stat line for one rotation. The Chandler Simpson-versus-Jordan Alvarez batting title race is a game-to-game swing, Taylor Walls is back and delivering in clutch spots, and the guys openly wonder whether a 100-win, historically great Rays regular season could still hit a wall against better postseason pitching. They close with a look at the weekend's college football, headlined by LSU-Ole Miss, Florida at Auburn, and USF hosting Delaware State.Segments:Bucs-Browns preview: why Tampa Bay should win big, turnovers as the only threat, Monken's Baker Mayfield historyRays sweep the A's, six-game win streak, shrinking magic number over the YankeesRasmussen and Martinez both notch win No. 15; the case for AL Cy Young supportSimpson vs. Alvarez batting race and whether the Rays' offense holds up in OctoberTaylor Walls back and contributing; lineup depth beyond CamineroCollege football weekend preview: LSU-Ole Miss, Florida-Auburn, USF-Delaware StateSponsor: Breitling Boutique, International Plaza Hosted on Acast.

Nick Wize answers a listener's question about choosing between the USF game and a potential World Series Game 7 at the Trop before returning to the Rays' AL East race. Tampa Bay fans continue to call in with their thoughts on whether the division is already locked up. While most listeners are confident enough to say the Rays have done it, others refuse to utter the words until the champagne is actually flowing.
Nick Wize brings another jam-packed Friday edition of The Nick Wize Show, covering everything from whether Bucs-Browns is truly a must-win game in Week 2 to Baker Mayfield's Cleveland redemption opportunity, Tampa Bay's keys to victory and Nick & Tim's predictions.

Rick Stroud and Steve Versnick open with the Rays' magic number dropping to seven to clinch the AL East over the Yankees, then dig into Baker Mayfield's much-hyped return to Cleveland — the viral moment of Baker walking into his press conference in Michigan gear (repping Troy Bowles after Oklahoma's loss) and the tangled history between Baker, the Browns, and new Bucs OC Todd Monken. They also revisit Alex Anzalone's rough Week 1 and Josiah Trotter's historic NFL debut before turning to the Rays' 4-3 win over the A's, Nick Martinez's under-the-radar Cy Young-caliber season, and the never-ending Caminero-vs-Alvarez AL MVP debate, with Chandler Simpson now leading the league in batting average.The back half is a deep-dive interview with Tampa Bay Times Lightning writer Eduardo Encina on media day: the uneasy state of Nikita Kucherov's contract talks (and why the new CBA's seven-year max complicates things), Victor Hedman's dramatic offseason transformation after a brutal, injury-and-anxiety-plagued year, injury news on Yanni Gourde and Dominic James, Brandon Hagel's case as a future captain, and what really derailed Braden Point's production last season — plus his summer skill-building sessions with Kucherov.

In this episode, Patrick Kelly breaks down what a “very strong” El Niño means for fall and winter weather, global agriculture, and the future of fresh produce.We dive into the science behind El Niño — how NOAA defines it, why the Walker Circulation matters, and why the World Meteorological Organization is forecasting a near 100% chance that this event will persist through February 2027. You'll hear expert insights from UC San Diego, USF, and global climate researchers on what makes this El Niño different.After the break, we explore how extreme weather, drought, flooding, and shifting ocean temperatures are already disrupting global agriculture. From rising rice prices to volatile grain markets, food insecurity risks, and supply chain pressure, Patrick unpacks how this climate event will reshape fresh produce markets worldwide.References: TIME – How El Niño Will Impact Fall and Winter Weather in the U.S.https://time.com/article/2026/09/11/el-nino-fall-winter-weather-us/NOAA – El Niño Forms, Expected to Strengthenhttps://www.noaa.gov/news-release/el-nino-forms-expected-to-strengthen-say-noaa-forecastersWMO – El Niño Set to Become Very Strong, Raising Risks of Extreme Weather into 2027https://wmo.int/news/media-centre/el-nino-set-become-very-strong-raising-risks-of-extreme-weather-2027The Conference Board – El Niño Reshapes Global Agricultural Marketshttps://www.conference-board.org/research/policy-backgrounders/el-nino-reshapes-global-agricultural-marketsNewsweek – How El Niño Could Spark Global Crisis in 2027https://www.newsweek.com/how-el-nino-could-spark-global-crisis-2027-12331811 (newsweek.com in Bing)

Nick Wize breaks down USF's performance, including the offensive line's improvement from Week 1, why the pass protection was better than the run blocking, and why Army's explosive passing plays were such a problem. The Bulls gave up too much at the end of the first half, including an Army touchdown when USF knew the Black Knights were likely to throw. On offense, Brian Hartline was more aggressive than he was in Week 1, but did USF find something late in the game? The final two drives were both touchdown drives, and both came while USF operated in the no-huddle. Should the Bulls make tempo a bigger part of their identity? Nick also breaks down the costly drops, the decision-making on fourth down, the onside kick with more than three minutes remaining, and the huge fourth-and-6 touchdown from Michael Van Buren Jr. to Joshua Porter. The biggest question coming out of the game: What is USF's offensive identity? Are the Bulls truly a run-first team, or should they lean into the passing game and play faster?
Nick Wize looks around the NFL and points out the strange reality of Week 1: the NFC South was the second-highest-scoring division in football, yet all four teams walked away with losses. Nick then hands out his best and worst weekend awards, praising USF fans, Arch Manning and Texas, the Chicago Bears' 59-point explosion, Oklahoma State's upset of Oregon and the Tampa Bay Rays, while putting the Bucs, Baker Mayfield, Alex Anzalone, Oregon, Ohio State and the entire NFC South on the wrong side of the list.
The Nick Wize Show breaks down the Buccaneers' frustrating loss to the Bengals from every angle, with Nick and Tim debating whether Baker Mayfield or Todd Bowles deserves the blame before the phone lines explode with passionate Bucs fans furious over Baker's three lost fumbles and new contract. Nick examines the offensive line's role in Baker's sack problems, questions whether Alex Anzalone actually had a worse game, highlights the defensive line's inability to pressure Joe Burrow and points out the surprising strength of Tampa Bay's defensive backs. The show also finds some positives, including Baker's Week 1 interception-free streak in Tampa, strong special teams play and the fact that plenty of other $55M quarterbacks struggled in Week 1. Nick then zooms out to the rest of the sports weekend, discussing the NFC South's bizarre 0-4 start despite being the NFL's second-highest-scoring division, while celebrating USF, Arch Manning and Texas, the Bears' 59-point explosion, Oklahoma State's upset of Oregon and the Rays.
Hey — this episode's a casual stroll through why Tampa's suddenly feeling like the cool, walkable city everyone wants to live in.

Grab a drink, kick back, and join us as we trade stories about changing skylines, nightlife that's moving west of I-4, and whether Tampa really is the future hotspot of Florida.

The Iran-backed Houthis have seized the strategic Red Sea port city of al-Mokha - apparently at the direction of the IRGC - as fighting in Yemen and Saudi Arabia escalates. On today's episode of Iran: the Latest, Sophia Yan speaks to Jerusalem correspondent Henry Bodkin about the pressure the war is putting on the Bab al-Mandeb and Strait of Hormuz as oil prices pass the $100/barrel threshold for a second day. US President Donald Trump is clearly feeling the pressure, claiming the war will end following November's midterm elections, and promising $5,000 cash payouts if Republicans retain Congress.Plus, news that Iranian missile strikes damaged multiple US F-15 fighter jets in Jordan, Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu denies being warned about Hamas's October 7 attack by the UAE, and MSF'S Charlene Silvin shares her first-hand experiences of wartime destruction in south Lebanon.

Baker Mayfield opens up to Rick Stroud about why he shut down contract talks during Training Camp, and more importantly, why he believes this Tampa Bay Buccaneers roster finally has the "killer instinct" that's been missing. Rick and Steve break down how veteran additions like A'Shawn Robinson and Rakeem Nunez-Roches have reset the locker room's attitude, why Baker — the ultimate underdog — is feeding off a roster full of players with chips on their shoulders, and whether that edge can actually fix a team that blew too many fourth-quarter leads a year ago.The guys also preview a wide-open NFC South, break down why the Cincinnati Bengals are a brutal Week 1 test for a suspect Bucs secondary, and look ahead to next week's can't-miss interviews with Mayfield and Todd Bowles. Plus: Greg Schiano's stunning loss to UMass at Rutgers, Alex Golesh catching heat for trashing USF on his way out the door to Auburn, a loaded college football weekend, and the Rays' rough start to a road trip in Texas as the AL East race tightens down the stretch.
