College Sports Now

We're fighting the elements. Megan is in Europe, Rob's kid is home because it rained in North Carolina overnight and school is closed. No matter, they recap the ACC/SEC Challenge, talk about the NET and what tweaks (if any) need to be made to it, run through some surprises (good and bad) so far this season, and preview a light week to come. Then they wrap with their latest all-time team draft by selecting Notre Dame players.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Last real weekend of college football, at least when it comes to meaningful games that are going to affect you-know-what coming down the line here in a matter of weeks. It's Championship weekend, we got NINE conference championship games going down on Friday and Saturday and then we get to hand out some hardware and make snow angels in the confetti. Felder is breaking down his top storylines of the weekend with the Felder Five (TM), Tripp is out here trying to re-organize intercollegiate athletics because, well, we're not really sure, and Hartzell is trying to stop the bleeding in the picks segment and find a winning weekend. It all comes down to this, the reason why you go through two-a-days in the summer, the picks champion will be crowned after the conclusion of this weekend's games.

There are nine FBS football games on the docket this week as conference championship games crank up on Friday and Saturday, so we might as well bring on our man Phil Steele (who's already in 2026 magazine mode. Yes, really) to run though his leans and selections for each of these games. The CFP committee rolled out their penultimate set of rankings on Tuesday night, so how about Hartzell & Wayne react to them live so you can wrap your head around all of these scenarios on Wednesday? The teams ranked 9-12 are going to be sweating it out on Sunday if BYU pulls the upset against Texas Tech. Is Alabama safe no matter what happens against Georgia? And how can the 10-2 Irish get in over the same 10-2 team that beat them head-to-head for (potentially) the final at-large spot? Lots to digest, and still one more weekend of games to get though before the 12-team CFP is set.

Absolutely jam-packed show on deck for you today, led by the incomparable Roddy Jones who wears many hats but has his ACC cap on for todays discussion on - in addition to many other things - how we got to Duke in the ACCCG & what to do about the Canes in the CFP. You want to talk about all the coach movement? We got you covered. Curious how Roddy feels about the Committee's performance through the first few weeks of polling? We got that too. Rivalry week reaction and a lookahead to the Championship games on deck Friday & Saturday? Obviously. Lots to get to in a loaded nearly 2-hour CSN that spans the college football landscape. And yes, we even let Tripp get a few words in. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's the day after Thanksgiving and the fellas are full - of food, beverages, and football takes. After a turkey day recap, the guys get down to the rivalry week analysis, the real reason you're all here. Felder Five covers Egg Bowl, Clean-old-Fashioned Hate, what to do with Miami/Pitt, plus The Game and A&M at Texas. Absolutely loaded card from our boy Felder who's not shying away from the big games. Hartzell and Phil Steele go one-on-one with all of the games on the top-25 for a solid 30 minutes, then we're back with piiiicks and 'That's My Dog', including a couple of bonus plays from Felder who's in a good mood today.

So much going on with today's show, and we mean that in a good way. For starters, we got Roddy AND Wayne to walk us through this massive rivalry week of games and look back on the weekend that was. Lock Dizzle is back with week 13 takeaways, as well as a look at the nine P4 jobs that are currently open thanks to Cal parting ways with Justin Wilcox on Sunday. Roddy & Wayne have fond memories about what this week means to them as former players and alums (who know all about what it means to beat their arch rival at the end of the season), and they both talk about it in great detail. Plus some must-hear audio from both of those guys' playing days makes a surprise appearance on the program! Last but not least we got some picks from Rodstra - a lot of picks, actually - to wrap up the show. Have a great Thanksgiving holiday and thank you so much for listening to us when you're on the road this week. Safe travels and know that we are thankful and grateful for your listenership. Enjoy the week, everybody!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Week 13 of the college football season is upon us and the fellas are navigating through some brackish waters with a mixed bag of games this weekend. Folks are saying this is a down weekend because obviously the final week is loaded but there's still plenty to jump into. The Lock Doctor has re-branded himself because he's 1-5 in his last two weeks, total free-fall mode. Hartzell is also coming off a rough weekend of picks but still leads the overall standings. Felder is fired up because Thanksgiving is just 6 days away and he's cooking - literally and figuratively - with the Felder 5 this week touching on conference races in the AAC, ACC, SEC, and Big 12. We already know what's going on in the B1G but the best game of the weekend might just be in Eugene between the Ducks and Trojans. That's my Dog and Three for All never disappoint, especially when the 'Lock Dizzle' is on the mic fo' shizzleSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On the first show of the season Rob Joyce predicted Duke would make the Final Four. It hasn't aged great, and he's in his feelings about it, with a large donut to help him calm down. Aside from that, he and Megan Gauer recap all the other happenings from the week - nice wins Iowa and St. John's! - and preview a fun week to come with UConn-Michigan, USC-Notre Dame and the Players Era all going on next week. Then they wrap the show with by drafting teams solely made up of LSU players.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

New rankings dropped Tuesday night, so you know we had to jump in with some takes. Wayne's actually not that outraged, given his history in these types of shows. Should there be 5 SEC teams in the field? Committee says yes. Bad news for the ACC and potentially the Big 12 but there's still a lot of football left to be played over the next three weeks. Hartzell gets sappy about the G5 and what the committee gave us in the 20-25 bunch at the bottom of the polls. This is, after all, the same Tulane team that lost by 22 to UTSA but hey, nobody's perfect. Phil Steele joins the show for his usual 30-minute ride through the top-25. How does Phil feel about some of the biggest matchups on the card for this week? Plus, some rare Ohio State talk since this team has just been a chainsaw all season we haven't really talked about how they go about their business. Wayne saw it first-hand last weekend, what did he take away from seeing the #1 team in the land?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Virginia Tech has a new football coach and as luck would have it we got one of the ACC's best in Roddy Jones to help us unpack what it means to the fine folks in Blacksburg. How do we think this is going to go? Roddy breaks it down for us, plus we got our weekly takeaways (best thing, worst thing, thing that shocked us) from the weekend. Rodstra has been treading water lately with the picks but if he doesn't buck up and string together a couple of winning weeks on the way outta here we're going to finish below .500 (again). Early week edition of CSN is in your feed a little earlier than usual because Hartzell & Tripp have a day of community service planned ... so everyone's a winner, really.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

UCLA notched two double-digit neutral-site victories over Oklahoma and UNC - are the Bruins the best team in the country? Megan Gauer and Rob Joyce talk UCLA, some notable other happenings from the week (USC over NC State, how many steals from Hannah Hidalgo??, a super fun Fairfield-USF game in Vegas). They preview the weekend ahead with some big-time Saturday matchups in Detroit (Michigan-Notre Dame) and LA (USC-South Carolina) and they wrap the show by each picking an all-time Baylor team (45:15 mark) - whose is better?

It's Friday so you know what that means - Felder Friday is locked and loaded with a preview of what's coming up this weekend. The gang gets into some CFP rankings reaction; what it means for each conference, and a reminder to chill out with the hot takery because we still got three weeks left in the regular season (it's going to sort itself out, people). Felder Five (TM) is spicy as always, including some spirited debate on a big Saturday in the SEC: how many points is Ole Miss going to hang on a Florida team that looked like it quit last week, plus Oklahoma's defense against a one-dimensional Alabama offense, and oh yeah, pretty big game between the hedges with Texas visiting Georgia. 'That's my Dog' and 'Three for All' is a must-listen because the Doc is coming off an 0-3 week and Hartzell just went 3-0, so it's a fade-or-follow Friday between these two. Weekend is here, we made it fam!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Pretty busy show when you consider Wayne Cook and Stephen Hartzell are reacting almost immediately after the CFP rankings drop on Tuesday night. There's finally a G5 team in the poll (!) but somehow Tennessee is still ranked (?) so it's not all roses. There are takes, disagreements, and enthusiasm on both sides of the aisle from Wayne and Hartzell, but that's what we're here for, right? Phil Steele even offers his Playoff take before launching into a 30-minute run through the week 12 top-25 card. The end of the show includes some Gavin Newsom jokes and Wayne tells Hartzell he looks like a Lord of the Rings character (yes, really).See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Roddy Jones has a house full of sick kids (one of which you'll hear from), Hartzell has two boys who are out of school for Veteran's Day, and Tripp is ... missing ... for the first 30 minutes of the show. Once Tripp does arrive, a fight ensues over the Indiana/Penn State game and what may (or may not) have been said on the TV broadcast. There's plenty of ACC discussion, including Roddy's trip to Charlottesville to watch Wake ruin Virginia's dream season, plus thoughts on fraudulent Louisville and the fact that Boston College has officially quit (according to Hartzell). What does all of this mean for the ACC tiebreaker scenarios and the most likely combination of teams that are going to play in Charlotte in December? CFP predictions for tonight's rankings unveil, week 11 takeaways, and Rodstradamus' weekly selections are all included. Good stuff on the early week show!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Felder Friday edition of the show to get you ready for the week 11 slate and we got the whole crew (despite some health issues for Hartzell and Tripp), so the gang has assembled to talk ball and break down these games. Felder has some choice words (and expletives) about Indiana not being ranked #1 in the CFP. You're going to want to hear that plus the full Felder Five with other takes on Georgia/Miss State, Oregon at Iowa, and whether or not this is the week we finally put Missouri to bed for the season. That's my Dog returns with the biggest underdog swing in the history of the segment, and if Felder hits on this one we might have to shut it down forever because lawdamercy this is a reach. Tripp and Hartzell go head-to-head with the piiiiiicks to close the show which is the real reason you all are here, let's be realSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The season is four days old, and there are actual real-life games to discuss! Megan Gauer and Rob Joyce recap some of the notable results from the opening week, some good (NC State-Tennessee!) some ugly (Baylor-Duke). They also bounce around and find some things they liked, some things they disliked and give their now annual "opening week of the season hot takes". And then they wrap up by previewing some spicy games over the next week, including two top-15 matchups for UCLA.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
