  • Long overdue!

    Excellent inside look at the world of Group of 5 football! Interviews with the head coaches of premier G5 teams are fantastic. Brings to life the culture of the up-and-coming, high-quality football programs of the schools that just don’t get coverage by mainstream media. Great work, fellas! Consider me your newest super fan!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

American Conference Schedule and Miami Ohio Disrespect | Ep. 253 Mar. 4th, 2026
Q: What are the easiest and toughest schedules in the American Conference according to the hosts?
They suggest that South Florida has the easiest path on paper, but note a tough late-season stretch; they also identify East Carolina, Tulane, and Memphis as challenging due to travel, non-conference matchups, and internal program changes.
Fan Gatekeeping and the Bison have joined the Mountain West | Ep. 250 Feb. 11th, 2026
Q: What is your take on gatekeeping fandom in college sports?
It's controversial and leads to debates on whether one can be a fan of a school they didn't attend, but alumni should prioritize their school over others.
Fan Gatekeeping and the Bison have joined the Mountain West | Ep. 250 Feb. 11th, 2026
Q: What do you think the impact of North Dakota State joining the Mountain West will be?
It's going to create a competitive environment in the Mountain West and they could aim for a playoff spot right away given their strong track record.
College Football Playoff Preview Show Ep. 244 | Dec. 17th, 2025
Q: How important is it for Tulane or James Madison to be competitive this weekend?
While it would help their public sentiment, the inclusion of Group of Five in the playoff is driven by financial considerations and potential litigation.
Live from Yulman Stadium Championship Weekend Preview Show Ep. 241 | Dec. 5th, 2024
Q: What's your stance on the narrative that the CFP selection committee is favoring Power Five teams over Group of Five teams?
It's a hard job; they don't want commissioners lobbying. You have to provide solid data to support your team's positioning.
