Are the days of absurdly named, snack-sponsored bowls coming to an end?

The guys get into college football chaos, from legendary sponsorships and hilarious bowl name history to the week’s wildest upsets and self-inflicted losses (Oklahoma and Oregon, looking at you). Plus: sideline drama between Steve Sarkisian and Holly Rowe, savage fan bets, and Oregon & Dan Lanning's new James Franklin energy. Is Kevin actually cursing teams with his bad betting luck? Find out which squads have become his latest victims.

Subscribe for banter on sideline interview etiquette, fans eating their own (literally), Alabama’s offensive woes, and a closing debate about Miami’s break-up with Adidas. College football is never boring – and the shenanigans just keep piling up.

Is LSU still trying to bring NFL players back to college football? The circus in Baton Rouge hits new lows as the SEC looks ready to explode, coaches get roasted, and the only thing crazier than the rules may be the boosters’ side bets. College football’s wildest offseason kerfuffle lands at LSU’s feet, and drags the rest of the SEC into the muck with them.

This week’s episode dives deep into LSU’s legal loopholes, alleged betting schemes, and the ripple effects threatening the very sanity of college football. The conversation focused on disastrous attempts by SEC powerhouses to wage war with eligibility rules, why school-wide punishment isn’t off the table, and how coaches like Dabo Swinney and Lane Kiffin get themselves tangled in the mess. One concept discussed was the dangerous precedent set when conferences and courts clash, opening the floodgates for more chaos.
