Should Colorado be worried? If Coach Prime got an NFL job, would it even be possible for him to wind up with the team that lands his son Shedeur? Or is this all a plot to drive YouTube numbers (for shows like ours; Coach Prime’s numbers are great as-is) and give the morning debate shows something to talk about?   Miami coach Mario Cristobal finally explained the second half of the Pop-Tarts Bowl on Monday. Had he said in his postgame press conference what he said Monday, it probably would have kept Cam Ward’s name from getting dragged for two weeks by people who don’t understand how football works.   Nick Singleton and Kaytron Allen are returning to Penn State, which is going to run for a lot of yards next season.   Finally, we revisit Andy’s 2024 season predictions from July to see just how badly he missed. Ari wasn’t working at On3 yet, so he’ll be spared this time. But all his 2025 predictions will be catalogued.   Watch us on YouTube instead! https://youtube.com/live/z9eLjhvyUO8 Hosts: Andy Staples, Ari Wasserman Producer: River Bailey
