Where did all these games come from?

Mitch Light of The Athletic joins Braden Gall to make sense of an unprecedented Final Four in college football. What do Indiana, Ole Miss, Miami and Oregon teach us about the future of College Football? What are we learning about the new playoff, new rules and new version of College Football? What did we learn from the quarterfinals and what do we expect to see in the semis?

Braden Gall sits down with longtime Big Ten and Ohio State reporter Doug Lesmerises. We break down Miami's shot at an upset, Indiana's chance at winning the whole thing, what makes the new tournament special and Oregon's balance. We preview the four College Football Playoff quarterfinal match-ups.

The first round of the playoffs did exactly what we expected it to do. A little bit of everything and maybe the potential for something totally new. Then Braden talks with Steven Godfrey about one of the wildest coaching carousels in modern college football history.

Braden Gall sits down with SiriusXM's Chris Childers to break down the future of the college football playoff committee. Did they get it right? What happens to conference championship games? Why the playoff will expand and what is the role of the TV networks? What happens to the Group of 5? Will Notre Dame be forced into a conference?

Braden Gall and Jared Stillman try to figure out what the hell is happening with the Penn State coaching search? Who else messed up this coaching carousel and who got it right? Are Bama and BYU already in or should the championship game matter? Is Nick Saban a liar?

Hey everyone, Braden here. I am offering a quick update on the future of the show. IT'S STILL ALIVE and we have plans we are figuring out. Thanks for all of your support and stay tuned!

Steven and Braden talk college football. Our favorite thing in Week 4 was a massive new mascot and a distracted head coach. Mike Gundy has been fired from Ok-State as the hot seat gets warmer. Man, were we wrong about a lot in Week 4 and doesn't that make it fun? We look ahead at massive top 15 match-ups this week, offer picks against the spread and handicap the G5 race to the playoffs. 

Steven and Braden talk college football after a dramatic third weekend of action. Our favorite thing from Week 3, what Georgia's win over Tennessee teaches us about the playoff and how Notre Dame's resume is still really good. Critical games in the Big 12 and Big Ten highlight another great weekend of action.

Steven and Braden talk college football. Florida, Virginia Tech, Oklahoma St and Kansas St are facing major questions after a brutal second week of action. Rivalries delivered in the Midwest. The AAC continues to shine and might have at-large playoff contenders. Baylor, Oklahoma, Illinois and others got big wins. Plus, the SEC takes center stage in Week 3 as multiple ranked match-ups highlight the weekend.
