  • 2026 QB Draft: Who Do We Want Leading Our Team? + CFB Buy, Sell or Hold
    Jul 5 2026

    Which quarterbacks would we actually want leading our team in 2026?

    In Episode 25, we draft our top college football quarterbacks based on one simple question: if we were a coach, school, or fan, who would we trust most with our season? Darian Mensah, Trinidad Chambliss, Dante Moore, Julian Sayin, C.J. Carr, Arch Manning, Gunner Stockton and more are all on the board as we build our five-QB rosters and debate some of the biggest names in the sport.

    Then we introduce a new Buy, Sell or Hold segment and react to some of the biggest storylines heading into the 2026 season. Is Texas Tech still a playoff team after the Brendan Sorsby mess? Is the new Pac-12 the favorite for the Group of Six playoff spot? Does Notre Dame have the easiest playoff path of the 12-team era? Are LSU and Oklahoma being underrated? And is this finally the year Texas A&M breaks through?

    QB debates, playoff predictions, and plenty of disagreements as the 2026 college football season gets closer.

  • Brendan Sorsby Supplemental Draft, Coaching Report Cards & Early Upset Picks
    Jun 18 2026

    Episode 23 starts with the wild Brendan Sorsby story, as he is expected to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft instead of playing for Texas Tech after the NCAA/Big 12 eligibility battle. We break down what happened, how the Supplemental Draft works, and why this could become one of the most interesting NFL draft stories in years.

    Then we continue our college football coaching report cards, including thoughts on Indiana, Texas Tech, Texas A&M, Miami, and Ole Miss. We talk through Mario Cristobal building Miami back into a real national program, Pete Golding taking over after Lane Kiffin at Ole Miss, and what these coaches still have to prove heading into the season.

    After that, we look at the early-season games that could produce the first big upset of the year, including Toledo over Michigan State, Clemson over LSU, Old Dominion over Virginia Tech, Iowa State over Iowa, Arizona State over Texas A&M, and more.

    We close the show with bold takes for the upcoming college football season.
