Your 2019 National Championship Game Preview

LSU-Clemson promises to be an intriguing game, with plenty of skill talent, schematic variation, and narrative meat to enjoy. And we talk about a lot of those things, because this podcast can talk about football when it wants to, dammit! But first we make you listen to some nonsense about the NFL playoffs, Nas, Ed Orgeron's shopping habits, Spencer's bare legs, and Pokemon. WELCOME! Learn more about your ad choices.

40 for 40, 2019 Edition: Which Bowl Foods would kill Ryan the quickest?

Technically, this is the bowl preview episode that contains both semifinal games. You will therefore not be surprised to learn that we spent most of our time discussing Potato Bowl recipes, Outback menu nutrition information, and whether all citrus fruits are actually just oranges.

40 for 40, 2019 Edition: The Gamification of Bowl Games

Rejoice! The 40 for 40 moves to the location-based bowls, including the Arizona, Belk, Birmingham, Camping World, Mobile, Music City, Sun, and Texas. Somehow, these bowls are turned into a progressively harder video game of sorts, which ends with Jimbo Fisher buying someone else's hair. Learn more about your ad choices.

40 for 40, 2019 Edition: The Intensely Geopolitical Bowl Preview

At least two things happen on this episode: The Alamo, Armed Forces, Cheez-It, First Responder, Independence, Liberty, and Military Bowls are mentioned in some way. We trade Missouri for Mexico. Which one of those two is worse for national unity? Hard to say. We'll look back in ten or twenty years and know the answer, though, so that's fun. Learn more about your ad choices.

40 for 40, 2019 Edition: Alternative National Championship Games

It's time to review the Cotton, Gator, Holiday, Quick Lane, Pinstripe, Red Box, and Rose Bowls based on the following very silly premise - if you had to go back in time and convince 2009 you that this was the 2019 national championship game, what tale would you spin to make that sound convincing?

40 for 40, 2019 Edition: A Pre-Christmas Crime Spree

This episode starts with a discussion of a long-time Tampa adult entertainment store and mostly ends with unsolved axe murders. Somewhere in between those, there is discussion of the pre-Christmas bowl games, but only as they are theoretically useful for doing crimes. This is the 40 for 40 and shame on you if you expected something different. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices.

The 2019 BVP Award (f.k.a. the People's Heisman)

Spencer, Jason, and Ryan meet to review the nominees for the 2019 BVP Award, the award we bestow upon the most college football player of the season. Many deserving candidates were discussed, from Hawaii QB Cole McDonald to LSU QB Joe Burrow's Butt. But only one could win, and we congratulate that winner, who we will not name in this description because that defeats the purpose. We also talked about Coach of the Year and Game of the Year nominees and winners. Are these awards real, you ask? Is a...

Nick Saban & Ole Miss are pissed - Week 14, Reviewed

This episode contains discussion of many important games and coaching changes around the sport of college football, but let us be perfectly clear: the only actually important part of this show is our demand that Mizzou hire Coach Brick. Coach Brick is the way of the future for Mizzou football. Any option that is not Coach Brick is a terrible plan. Learn more about your ad choices.

BLOOD WEEK HISTORY: Thanksgiving Blood Soup

We continue our review of historical blood weeks with a trip to Thanksgiving Week, 2010. Ralph Friedgen was still at Maryland. Mike Stoops was still at Arizona. Dabo and Clemson went 6-7! These were different times, but that does not mean there was an absence of ranking upheaval, even if it cost us one of our best shots at a non-power making the BCS Championship.

Arizona State Has Been Considered - Week 13, Reviewed

So many things happened on this week's episode. Some of them were planned, like talking about the FCS bracket, reviewing how great it is that FIU's kicker throat-slashed Miami, praising Herm Edwards Brain for being trapped in the NFL, or feeling afraid of Ohio State. Some of them were not planned, like Jason's weird eating habits revealed or Billy Dee William's Grizzly Bear Movie.

Thanksgiving Disasters

Perhaps more than any other holiday, Thanksgiving mixes volatile family dynamics, recipes that amateur cooks can easily bungle, travel stress, and the potential for major property damage.

Catching up on The 2019 Bold Predictions Game

As we stumble into November, some of the possibilities contained within our Bold Predictions Game have proven true or false. Kentucky didn't beat Florida. An FCS team beat a Power 5 team. Auburn didn't lose to its first four Power 5 opponents (not even close, actually). Hawaii beat a Pac-12 team. Twice! But many predictions are still up for grabs. Which power conference won't make the playoff? Will every Big 12 coach stay in their current job? Is another school going to leave the American, inspi...

Ludicrous Playoff Scenarios and Week 9, Reviewed

WARNING: This episode contains praise for the Ohio State Buckeyes, substantive discussion of Michigan-Notre Dame, a fair amount of Rose Bowl talk, and multiple examinations of how the Big Ten could get two teams into the Playoff. While there are other topics discussed, we must warn anyone who is not prepared to get this Midwestern about the journey ahead of them, which features a guest appearance from Ludicrous Playoff Scenario Seer Alex Kirshner.

The Unnecessary NFL Relocation Draft

These days NFL teams only move two places: to Los Angeles or away from Los Angeles (Las Vegas counts as both, just trust us). This sucks and is boring, so we are taking matters into our own hands and moving teams wherever we want using a confusing draft process with unclear rules.

Come Fantifa With Us - Week 7, Recapped

Georgia lost a Muschampin' Contest, but that does not make this week a Blood Week. (Patience, you who thirst for chaos and woe!) We will give you a dollar in Fullcast Download Store Credit if you can tell us what the Pac-12 South standings are, we determine how many games Iowa can win the rest of the year if they score twelve points and only twelve points in all of those games, we talk a lot about the extended Fansville universe, and the Sandman stops by for a minute.

The Edges of Fandom

Because we work with and around Braves fans, we decided to spend this episode contemplating the losses that have pushed various fanbases to consider just walking away and being done with the whole thing. Warning: if you are a fan of the Pirates, Bengals, and Arkansas, this will be a super unpleasant episode for you. But your life is probably kinda weird to start with, no?

SACK TIME! - Week 6, Recapped

Spencer, Holly, and Jason enjoyed Iowa-Michigan the way they didn't know it was intended to be consumed: entirely via Michigan radio broadcast. (Ryan just watched it on TV, like an idiot.) That's why most of this episode is Midwestern chortling and shouting, even when we talk about: - The ACC embracing nonsense as a conference identity - The Tennessee squirrel - Whether or not Pitt can fire the superweapon again, or even fired it at all - Auburn-Florida - Whatever the hell the Pac-12 is doing Le...

Live! In Charlotte

A hearty thank you to all the wonderful people who came out to our live show in Charlotte, where we did what any good guest would do and mostly just trashed the ACC. But, you know, in fun Fullcast ways. Did this tick off one person in attendance to the point where he almost kind of sort of tried to take over the show? Yes, but he's right that the ACC has won two of the last three national titles, a thing we definitely did not know and nobody talks about. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit m...

Hi, it's Ryan. I'm not on this episode because my internet was being a real shit, and I haven't listened to it yet, so I have no idea what it contains! I predict there's probably some talk about Rutgers and UNC, and Spencer probably freaks out about the Auburn-Florida game. Maybe something about Virginia Tech getting flattened by Duke? Shrug.
