Did Mack Rhoades sabotage Baylor Bears football and derail BYU’s College Football Playoff hopes? Cam Stuart and Sydney Wicker break down the controversy rocking the Big 12 after BYU was snubbed from the College Football Playoff, dissecting the ripple effects of Rhoades’ CFP committee departure and raising tough questions about Utah AD Mark Harlan’s new role. The debate heats up over power shifts, conference respect, and whether fans’ conspiracy theories actually hold water.

Baylor’s offseason shakeup continues with defensive coordinator Matt Powledge’s exit to UNT, sparking speculation about Dave Aranda’s future and the search for new leadership on defense. On the hardwood, assistant coach Jared Nuness steps away for health reasons, and Cam Stuart and Sydney Wicker weigh how these moves impact Baylor basketball’s chemistry. Plus, new AD Doug McNamee’s top priorities—can he steady the ship and reinvigorate Baylor’s athletic direction as the transfer portal looms?
