Hour 1: Billy's Top 5 Things He Won't Miss (feat. Adnan Virk)

Notre Dame and USC on Saturday. Chiefs v Raiders and Dallas v Washington on Sunday. Three words for rivalry games - ooh, la and la. USC Legend Matt Leinart knows a thing or two about that game. He shares what's great about South Bend, Indiana. And then shares why giving blood is the easiest way to save lives. (Find out more: BigTen.Org/Abbott). Then Chris Cote joins the show to work through the top five games to watch this weekend, along with the reason why Oreos are a superior dunking cookie. Punk Legend Henry Rollins makes an appearance, too. We think. Don't fact check us on that one. But Dave Dameshek and the gang have the necessary prep to make the Week 7 NFL weekend soar on Football America!

The Vegas Golden Knights have signed Carter Hart to a PTO after he was acquitted in the Hockey Canada Five trial. Roy, David, and Ethan offer their thoughts on the signing and what this says about the state of the league. Roy and David have some huge concerns about the New York Rangers' offense and how it compares to the early 2000s Florida Panthers, and Ethan thinks the Chicago Blackhawks might finally have some juice this year. Rose is back and joins in on the fun in wins and fails of the week, which include a fight that knocked the lights out, the refs in Panthers-Devils having a rough go, and Billy Gil's departure from the show. Shayna Goldman of The Athletic joins the show and brings the heat on the Carter Hart issue, and tells us why her Rangers are struggling so much and whether there is any hope their offense will get going. She also weighs in on the Blackhawks, whether Martin Necas will cash in some time soon, and how exciting the Montreal Canadiens are. Finally, the gang steps into the Panthers Den to break down what was a rough week for the two-time defending Stanley Cup Champions. Learn more about your ad choices.
