  • Review

    Good podcast generally, but odd not to do a podcast on the most important game of the year and jump straight into the offseason.

    I’ve been a fan of Greg since he was in uniform. He’s taking that level of excellence into his analysis. I always check in to see what his takeaways are. He is one of the best out there. Must watch

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Always College Football: Week 6 Previews: SEC Showdowns & BIG 10 Battles!
Q: Can Georgia run the ball effectively against Alabama's front?
Georgia's offensive line has created decent room, but Alabama's front has repeatedly met backs at or near the line of scrimmage, making sustained ground production challenging than expected.
Always College Football: BIG 10 vs SEC supremacy on the LINE in week 2?!
Q: What does Michigan go from here and how do you address the quarterback and offensive line issues heading into the Oklahoma game?
Butt suggests using the quarterback's athleticism to create value, while gradually improving the passing game and protecting the QB, with a focus on keeping him healthy and upright and potentially altering the pocket and launch points to build confidence.
Always College Football: BIG 10 vs SEC supremacy on the LINE in week 2?!
Q: First of all, had Michigan lost, they would have made way more money. Michigan winning, the books got crushed there. So like this whole conspiracy, just from your vantage point, Jake, how do you assess the way the end of the game was handled with Western Michigan and Michigan?
Jake Butt explains there wasn't a conspiracy and acknowledges how calls can go against a team, stressing that the official decision was based on the information available from the conferences and that the situation highlighted the need to prevent such outcomes in the future.
Always College Football: Can College Football survive as we know it?
Q: Josh in Oregon asks why there isn't a running back from Oregon in the top 10—what's the hold-up?
The answer is that competition between Davison and Hill makes it unclear who will be the featured back, so a firm ranking isn't possible yet until August when the line and rotation become clearer.
Always College Football: Can College Football survive as we know it?
Q: Travis in Michigan asks why Jordan Marshall was left out of the top 10 running backs and mentions Monahan Haynes as a contrast.
The host explains that while Marshall had a strong year, Haynes showed greater receiving ability and the offense around Marshall was a factor; Marshall might deserve honorable mention and could rise with a stronger season.
