Colin’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down the College Football Playoff and the top storylines from the NFL!  They start with the Oregon Ducks being absolutely cooked by Ohio State in the Rose Bowl and why Ohio State looks to be in a class of their own compared to the rest of the field (3:30).  They discuss the controversial non-call for targeting in the Arizona State/Texas game that likely changes the outcome and why they both hate the targeting rule (14:30). They laud the Arizona State coaching staff for taking a much more talented Texas team down to the wire, and attempt to dissect why Steve Sarkisian’s teams look “loose” (25:00). They debate whether Penn State can win the national championship (34:00) and what to make of Ashton Jeanty and Drew Aller as NFL prospects (37:00).  They pivot to the NFL and start with why it doesn’t bother them that Saquon Barkley is sitting out the final game of the season with the single season rushing record in reach (47:00). Colin labels Brock Purdy an “if” quarterback where he can only succeed “if” things go well around him and discuss what the 49ers should do with him going forward (53:15). Finally, they weigh in on Colts GM Chris Ballard potentially being in danger of losing his job and why the Colts should cut ties with quarterback Anthony Richardson just two years after being drafted #4 overall (1:09:00).  (Timestamps may vary based on advertisements.)

Today on The Herd, Jonas Knox and LaVar Arrington fill-in and tell critics to stop complaining about the new College Football Playoff format. LaVar rips the Eagles for sitting Saquon Barkley when he's only 101 yards shy of Eric Dickerson’s single-season rushing record. Following the attack on Bourbon Street, the Sugar Bowl is officially postponed to Thursday. All that and much more! #2prosSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
