  • College Ball

    Paul should be a national college football show instead of just the SEC, specially now. But basically his show describes the passion in college football nearly every day. Yeah, he gets annoying with some of his takes but this is one of the main shows in the sport where many fans gravitate.

  • Sham show. SEC homer

    This guy is an embarrassment. Someone who couldn’t make it as a waterboy now has “knowledge” about CFB. He is a paid SEC smoke show. Starve him so ends up where he belongs

  • Gaslighter

    I used to like Paul but lately it just feels like he’s a grumpy old man who talks gibberish and gaslights his audience. His takes aren’t rooted in any truth and he flip flops more than a Waffle House cook. I gradually stopped listening and now I unfollowed this hallow old man.

Q: What are you learning about Missouri and Texas A&M ahead of their game?

Nowkhah says Brent Venables and Ben Arbuckle are sticking with Mattier and hope practice and a game plan with quicker throws can rebuild his confidence and limit mistakes.
