Oklahoma lost to an Iowa State with several time travelers from before the age of television on the roster. Miami beat FSU team but it means nothing because, according to Seminole fans, Florida State isn't actually any good. Bret Bielema's still adjusting to his first fifth season at Arkansas but surely things will improve. And, oh, right, we're all freaking out about Jim Harbaugh and Michigan. Though at least they don't have to play at 1:45 AM Eastern, unlike Washington. Learn more about your a...

Buyouts are one of the best parts of college football because they're little roadblocks you get to set up against your own future happiness. Sure, you'd like to find a new, better coach, but you can't. Why? Because of that big old buyout, where you'd have to pay this coach a bunch of money to leave. Well, who put that there? YOU DID! YOU DID THAT TO YOURSELF! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Or at least let's not talk about Florida-Tennessee very much, and, guess what! We don't! Not when we can ponder Brian Kelly losing his job after giving up 50 points to Boston College, or Papa John debating health care with Stephen A.

Texas A&M didn't just ruin their own year; they ruined our ability to do a review of Week 1. So this episode starts with two Florida fans moaning about their terrible counterfeit prescription drug of a team, moves on to a discussion of Iowa-Iowa State ending with one team making ten field goals, explains how Tennessee is like Darth Vader, wishes UNC luck against Lamar Jackson, and shows you how Pitt needs to lose to itself to make the Playoff.

Minnesota's ruining Michigan's year! Texas Tech is going to have a only somewhat awful defense!

We're gonna talk about the Backyard Brawl, and Stanford winning outright as a 41 point dog, and the Heisman winner finding his path as a minor league baseball player, and Dennis Dixon's injury, and the time ULM beat Nick Saban, and Houston Nutt, and a whole lot of other weird shit that happened in 2007.

Houston Nutt is in your emails right now. He's already told your boss about that thing you ordered online. You know the one. Just quit now and save yourself the disgrace. The unemployment rate is going to jump 3% this year and it'll just be because Houston Nutt demands his damn pound of flesh. (Phrasing, I know.) Learn more about your ad choices.

Colorado won 10 games last year, and it's entirely possible that your team didn't. In fact, this is almost certainly true if you root for a different member of the Pac-12 South (ok fine USC is good and fun, we get it). But this is 2017, and now it's time to talk about:How far the Buffs fall back this seasonWhy Utah football is the opposite of ginThe man who saw USC win 9 national titles and then died in the Rose Bowl parking lot, possibly as an intentional inconvenience to UCLAThe spectacular ba...

It's already time to start thinking about the 2017 season, but there's no reason to jump into the deep end. No, we're slowly easing into the calm, lukewarm waters of the SEC's other conference, with a prediction for each team and a goal we're hoping they can reach. Why does Spencer feel okayish about Florida? Who will we be rooting for in Georgia-Notre Dame? How little has Jason prepared for this whole exercise? And at which minute mark will Ryan bemoan his continued existence? Learn more about ...

Nick Saban got paid a lot of money to coach Alabama last year. He will get more money thanks to his new deal because nobody will listen to our plan to trick coaches into signing terrible incentive-laden contracts. Don't worry, most of this podcast isn't about the crazy money college football coaches make at the top. It's pointless meanderings about grocery stores, like: - Can you beat Whole Foods at their own hot bar game? - Is Trader Joe's for assholes? - Did you know there are grocery stores w...
