Podcast Ain't Played Nobody

Your weekly rundown of the S&P+ top 25 and a review of the week that was in college football.

If Georgia is the weakest link among the top four, we'll begin to find out this week.

Nick Saban's mad at his second-string defense, we don't hate NC State, who in the Pac-12 is good?, DEEP DEEP UTAH STATE TALK, Bobby Petrino's in trouble, Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt are fine, how big is the SEC's middle class?, and how do you measure player development?

Your S&P+ top 25 rundown show, featuring a surging Utah State, a stupid Mizzou-South Carolina game, the lost NC State-WVU game, a Mark Richt team that stormed back in a rivalry game, a no-longer-fired Joe Moorhead, a boring top four, and TEXAS AIN'T BACK YET

T-Bob Hebert joins Bill and Godfrey to talk about LSU-Florida, the most Les Miles moment ever, and the perceptions vs. reality battle for both LSU in 2018 and Ed Orgeron as a whole. Also: turnovers luck, the Woodward of the Egg Bowl, and your week 6 tasting menu.

Ole Miss will be very different in 2019. Penn State wants to be elite. Let's make West Virginia happen. Let's just go hang out in Seattle. Texas should go back to triple-option. How do we get the coach salary toothpaste back in the tube?

Your weekly S&P+ top-25 rundown: Hello, Fresno and NC State, Kentucky passed another test, UCF's a top-10 team (again), Notre Dame is looking gooooood, and, yeah, we should probably talk about the play call that decided Ohio State-Penn State.

College football's Week 5 slate is loaded ... and almost all the big games kick off at the same time. That's just ridiculous. Also: UNLV head coach Tony Sanchez talks about the grind of building a winner, standing out in Sin City, and his friends back in Las Cruces.

How S&P+ adjusts for opponent, how Stanford-Oregon happened, how Benny Snell gets into the Heisman race, how Nebraska hired Mike Riley, how petty Utah State fans can be, how Minnesota becomes Oregon, and how schools investigate themselves.

This week's S&P+ top 25 rundown, from a murderous Appalachian State, to a hungover Oklahoma State, to a really, no seriously, very good SEC East, to this week's No. 5 team, James Franklin's Nittany Lions.

College football's week 4 slate ... ain't great. But we're here to walk you through it all the same. Also: Arkansas' SEC identity, Clay Helton's hot seat?, second chances for black head coaches, and why Gene Chizik really might not ever want to coach again.

IT'S THE FREAKOUT EPISODE * Have we had a strangely large number of fluky wins this year? * Lance Leipold is proof that FSU fans (and Arkansas fans, and all other fans of schools with first-year head coaches) should stop freaking out * LSU's ceiling isn't as high as it should be, but burly manball can win you some games * Why isn't Texas State better? When will Baylor be better again? * No, Purdue fans, your team probably isn't winning the Big Ten West

Your Week 4 S&P+ top 25 countdown, from the new teams (Indiana! Kentucky!) to the same old, same old. Ohio State used a five-minute burst to survive against a good-looking TCU, Wisconsin got out-Wisconsin'd, Auburn *really* should've beaten LSU, and does Oklahoma State have a defense now?

Week 3 is the most interesting yet for the 2018 college football season, but weather's getting in the way. Weather.com's Sean Breslin talks slow-moving storms and Seminoles, and then it's time for your weekend tasting menu, from Troy-Nebraska to ASU-SDSU.

Texas A&M had the definition of a good loss, Boise State is a damn wrecking ball, Kevin Sumlin maybe should've sat out a year, Florida got lazy, a semi-ridiculous realignment scenario, and what has PAPN done for its hosts?
