Great to have Allen on the show. Bit of OU angst (just a bit) ahead of what is basically a playoff elimination game
In this week's MAIN COURSE presented by Modelo, we have @BlatantHomerism on the show to talk about Oklahoma/Tennessee and this year for the Sooners. OU is contending, but how are we really *feeling* about Brent Venables? Thanks to Allen for coming on

The Blue Jays were more scared of Ohtani last night than any team has ever been of any hitter @Slate

Wall Street is selling 30-year bonds like beachfront property in Florida. They're actually 30-year IOUs from a government running $2 trillion deficits, paying you back in dollars that will buy half a ham sandwich! I did the math. You're not going to like it: 👇

It’s the little things but I very much appreciate @RJ_cfb and @alex_kirshner using the 🐐 @StanCottenWF ‘s call when doing the recapture

Penn State and Florida have already fired coaches, while a handful of others remain on the hot seat. Can they do enough in their final five or six games to stick around? @alex_kirshner assesses their chances. https://t.co/HP3tDS9u7k

Diego Pavia is one of the most transformative college football players ever. More than the actual best QBs of the century if the prompt is "how much they changed a program"
Our talk with @38Godfrey about how Vanderbilt got good — in particular, by having a GREAT scouting operation and being open to players from all over. This week's MAIN COURSE, presented by Modelo, at the end of this week's Tasting Menu

Ole Miss is among the nation’s 11 undefeated teams as it visits Georgia on Saturday. With tough road tests coming the next two weeks, we’re about to get an idea of just how good the Rebels really are, says @alex_kirshner . https://t.co/xE5VJWTDRS

With road tests coming the next two weeks, we’re about to get an idea of how good the Rebels really are this season. What should we make of them heading into this pivotal stretch?

Thanks to Bennett for coming on and telling us about the smoothest FCS-to-FBS transition college football has seen in modern times
One of the best matchups of Week 8: Old Dominion at James Madison, in what could shockingly decide the Sun Belt championship. It's THE MAIN COURSE of this week's Tasting Menu, presented by Modelo. Welcome @BennettConlin of @JMUSportsNews

Do think this by @alex_kirshner gets a lot closer to the truth of how Penn State got itself into this mess and why the firing outcome was ultimately inevitable in this piece than anything else I’ve seen so far

The school needed to fire James Franklin—and that’s a damning indictment of the sport.

Wrote about a dynamic that's always existed in college football but is now dialed up to 14: When you need to hit up people for money all the time, you really can't keep a coach once things get to a certain threshold of toxic. This is not really healthy

Clemson doesn't generate many rushing chunk plays, and has a run success rate that’s near the bottom of the ACC. The Tigers' woes are just one of the stunning turns so far. @alex_kirshner looks at some of the other surprises (good and bad). https://t.co/b7ewxJMcTg

Oftentimes people here talk about Bluesky as an information bubble, and sure there's some of that, but only the intentionally slanted-by-the-owner Twitter For You feed could convince someone that the NFL is in real trouble for having megastar Bad Bunny do the halftime show
Column: The NFL has a Bad Bunny problem. The league needs to get its arms around this growing controversy before the country’s most-watched TV show—the Super Bowl—becomes a political football in the culture wars, writes @MMcCarthyREV ⬇��

You vs. the podcaster with proper lighting and a good camera that she tells you not to worry about
A great Oregon-Indiana talk with friend of the show and podcast legend @DanRubenstein of @SolidVerbal. Dan Lanning is really like that, yeah. Does current Indiana remind him of Oregon when the Ducks were on the rise? And much more in THE MAIN COURSE, presented by Modelo
