Dan Wetzel, SI’s Pat Forde & SI’s Ross Dellenger have a jam packed show today coming off of a wild weekend of football news. To kick off the pod, two-time national champion Stetson Bennett was arrested over the weekend in Texas on public intoxication charges, so the guys discuss how this will impact his draft stock. Former college quarterback Jalen Hurts is making his first appearance in a Super Bowl after the Philadelphia Eagles trounced the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Hurts, who has led the team all year, has found enough success to make Oklahoma Sooners fans and Alabama Crimson Tide fans argue about who gets bragging rights over the quarterback. The guys reminisce on Jalen Hurts’ rollercoaster journey through college football, only for him to come out on top. In coaching news, Jim Harbaugh took another meeting with the Denver Broncos after Michigan had stated that he will be coaching in Ann Arbor next season. The NCAA is changing their approach to levying NIL violations on coaches and schools: the universities will now have to prove their innocence in a possible violation instead of the NCAA having to prove guilt. Lastly, the Empire State Building celebrated the New York Giants arch-rival Philadelphia Eagles with a light display in Manhattan. The gang discusses how an action like that would go over in a college football rivalry…not well! 1:00 Stetson Bennett was arrested for public intoxication in Dallas, TX 9:35 Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles make a Super Bowl while the Cincinnati Bengals fall just short 28:38 Jim Harbaugh interviewed again with the Denver Broncos 45:30 The NCAA is tightening up on NIL regulations 54:10 New York City’s Empire State Building changed its colors to green and white for the Eagles Stay up to date with the latest college football news and coverage from Yahoo Sports on Twitter @YahooSportsCFB.

Dan Wetzel, SI’s Pat Forde & SI’s Ross Dellenger react to a new in-depth article that covered the North Carolina Tar Heels’ athlete NIL situation and more from around the college football landscape. Before detailing the pros and cons at UNC, the guys react to the Ole Miss Rebels adding two new quarterbacks from the transfer portal. Spencer Sanders joins the team by way of Oklahoma State & Walker Howard joins from LSU. The gang discusses who will likely be leading the Rebels next fall & if any of the team’s current signal callers will leave before then. After that, the pod gives their thoughts on a New York Times article that details the NIL deals of athletes at the University of North Carolina. While some high level basketball players are making a very healthy amount, other sports on campus could suffer in the long-term. In other money news, LSU head football coach Brian Kelly was accidentally given an extra $1 million from the school. The show discusses an innovative new flavor of beer stemming from Minnesota. Lastly, college basketball season is heating up, so the podcast gives a brief overview of one of the biggest matchups from this weekend’s SEC/Big 12 Men’s Basketball Challenge. 1:00 The Ole Miss Quarterback Room is loaded 15:11 An in-depth look at the NIL situation at UNC 40:35 Brian Kelly was accidentally paid an extra $1 million by LSU 49:43 Hormel chili and Modist Brewing have developed a chili cheese flavored pilsner 56:10 College Basketball season is starting to heat up Stay up to date with the latest college football news and coverage from Yahoo Sports on Twitter @YahooSportsCFB.

Dan Wetzel, SI’s Pat Forde & SI’s Ross Dellenger kick off the podcast breaking down more NIL madness featuring top rated quarterback Jaden Rashada as the Florida Gators collective falls through. Rashada, who is now looking for a new home, left Florida as their $13 million collective was unable to fulfill their promise to get enough money. The gang draws comparisons to the early USFL days & notes that the worst part of this NIL situation is if Jaden Rashada doesn’t even get to play this year. On the flip side of the recruiting spectrum, in back-to-back years Deion Sanders has landed the #1 cornerback prospect out of high school. This year Coach Prime was able to get Cormani McClain to commit to the University of Colorado. Elsewhere in college football, Ed Reed has been vocal about his situation at Bethune-Cookman, which leads the guys to a discussion about how hard it truly is to change the trajectory of a college football program. In professional football, the Cincinnati Bengals were able to beat the Buffalo Bills to keep the AFC Championship game in Kansas City. The option for a neutral site playoff game is off the table and the NFL will have to wait before trying to turn a playoff game into a bowl game. Finally, the People’s Court gives their rulings on a robbery with a stapler and the great Fireball debacle of 2023. 1:00 Jaden Rashada was granted his release from the Florida Gators 29:40 Colorado lands top rated cornerback Cormani McClain 35:20 Ed Reed and Bethune-Cookman University are butting heads 41:36 The NFL tried to sneak a bowl game into the playoffs 48:23 The People’s Court Stay up to date with the latest college football news and coverage from Yahoo Sports on Twitter @YahooSportsCFB.

Dan Wetzel, SI’s Pat Forde & SI’s Ross Dellenger are back and kick off the podcast going through the details of a new bill proposal that would give college athletes in California a 50/50 split of athletic revenue — a potential huge shakeup to college athletics as we know it. Ross details how the  bill could get approved & the newly found optimism surrounding it. There would be more benefits to the athletes, but how would it affect regular students? Could tuition fees be raised? Which sports would be eligible (and are deserving) of this proposed pay structure? Dan raises the idea that the Olympic sports at universities should not dictate tuition being raised for any student. The premise of the federal government funding these sports is also on the table if more bills like these are passed and sports are deemed cuttable by their universities. In college football news, Lane Kiffin was able to secure LSU transfer quarterback Walker Howard and a college football player entered the transfer portal advertising a school that he never attended. Finally, the podcast ends with some fishing advice in the event that you land a big tuna. 1:00 A new revenue sharing bill for student athletes has been proposed in California 14:15 Would schools risk recruiting advantages by cutting some football funding? 19:00 Are the Olympic Sports worth keeping at universities if general students have to pay for them? 31:40 Should the Olympic sports be funded by the federal government? 43:32 Walker Howard is transferring from LSU to Ole Miss 46:15 A college football transferred from Savannah State while never being on the team 50:47 A fisherman was pulled from his boat after hooking a tuna in Hawaii Stay up to date with the latest college football news and coverage from Yahoo Sports on Twitter @YahooSportsCFB.

In other news, CJ Stroud announced he will be leaving Ohio State for the NFL draft, the Michigan Wolverines are finding creative ways to use NIL to retain their juniors through crowdsourcing & Jim Harbaugh has elected to stay coaching the Michigan Wolverines.

The SEC de-commitments continue with the latest big name being Walker Howard, who has left LSU in pursuit of a new program. Coming out of Monday’s title game loss, TCU offensive coordinator Garret Riley and Clemson are in discussions as Dabo Swinney is looking outside of the family to improve the Tigers offense. In Ann Arbor, the Michigan Wolverines can’t stop being vague and cryptic. Their latest head-scratcher stems from head coach Jim Harbaugh replying to a tweet from Michigan’s president. Lastly, Carl’s Jr. is offering an odd pairing with their cheeseburgers — Dan and Ross investigate. 2:35 Ross spoke with new NCAA president Charlie Baker 8:30 Kevin Warren leaves the Big Ten to become the new president of the Chicago Bears 23:35 Jaden Rashada's NIL deal at Florida fell through 34:38 Walker Howard has left LSU 36:30 Garrett Riley is expected to be hired by Clemson 42:30 More cryptic tweets are coming out of Ann Arbor, Michigan 48:30 The NCAA is trying to make a second transfer more difficult than the first 55:00 Carl’s Jr is releasing a wine to pair with their A-1 double cheeseburger Stay up to date with the latest college football news and coverage from Yahoo Sports on Twitter @YahooSportsCFB.

Dan Wetzel, SI’s Pat Forde & SI’s Ross Dellenger have a full recap of the Georgia Bulldogs’ dominant win over the TCU Horned Frogs in the College Football Playoff National Championship. It was an ugly game for TCU fans as they saw Georgia run up a winning score of 65-7 in the final game of the 2022 season. The new era of SEC football may be upon us with a repeat champion along with a vibrant program in Athens, GA. Kirby Smart looks to have taken the throne from Nick Saban with this victory. The pod speculates if Alabama’s dynasty is truly over after seeing what the Georgia Bulldogs were capable of yet again. Stetson Bennett had another fantastic playoff appearance, so speculation ensues about his draft stock. The fellas also take a look at Pat’s way too early top-25 teams heading into the 2023 college football season and Dan relays a story of North Dakota State fans drinking a plane dry on the way to Frisco, TX. In news of the weird, a Dutch grocery store opened up slow paced checkout lanes & Prince Harry lives up to the title of the party prince. 2:12 Georgia continues their dominance with a huge win over TCU to secure the national championship 15:30 TCU had a great season, but couldn’t really compete with Georgia 16:56 Georgia should be ranked #1 going into the 2023-2024 season 23:10 Reviewing Pat’s ‘way too early top-25’ 41:23 North Dakota State fans drank a plane dry 46:37 Stetson Bennet, can he play in the NFL? 55:00 A Dutch supermarket chain has developed a slow checkout lane for chatting 56:50 The royal family is stirring up drama Stay up to date with the latest college football news and coverage from Yahoo Sports on Twitter @YahooSportsCFB.

The pod breaks down the violations that the NCAA is imposing on Jim Harbaugh, including a level 1 violation which has the possibility to disrupt Harbaugh’s tenure at Michigan.

Dan Wetzel, SI’s Pat Forde & SI’s Ross Dellenger have their full breakdown of the biggest game of the year as the TCU Horned Frogs face off against the Georgia Bulldogs in the College Football Playoff National Championship. Before getting into the preview, the guys provide details for their upcoming live show in Los Angeles at the CFP Main Stage. As fun as the Playoff Fan Central activities will be, Sofi Stadium and the CFP are not allowing fans at the game to tailgate beforehand causing much consternation ahead of college football's biggest game. This decision disappointed the guys greatly, prompting the show to offer alternatives to tailgating close to the stadium. In non-CFP title news, the disingenuous grifter is back in the FBS, as Bobby Petrino is being hired by the Texas A&M Aggies to be the next offensive coordinator in College Station & the NCAA Transformation Committee has proposed a possible expansion to the March Madness bracket. The fellas wish the committee luck as they try to tamper with the most popular tournament in America. The show then breaks down the upcoming national championship between the TCU Horned Frogs and Georgia Bulldogs. TCU will try to create as much mayhem against the rock-solid Georgia team in a David vs. Goliath re-enactment this upcoming Monday.

Dan Wetzel, SI’s Pat Forde & SI’s Ross Dellenger get together to recap this weekend's remaining college football bowl games. Before analyzing the New Year’s Six bowl games, reports have come out that Michigan Wolverines head coach Jim Harbaugh could be looking to coach in the NFL next season. Speculation is growing after Jim Harbaugh attempted to become the next head coach of the Minnesota Vikings last summer, along with his desire to finally get a Super Bowl ring. The pod discusses whether or not they think he will go back to the NFL & who could fill his shoes at Michigan if a departure for the pros does indeed happen. There was a fantastic slate of bowl games this week that included Tulane stepping up and winning the Cotton Bowl over USC in dramatic fashion. Out west at the Rose Bowl, Penn State capped off their season on a high note by beating Utah. Mississippi State was able to put closure on their season with a gritty win against Illinois in the ReliaQuest Bowl and finally, it would only be right to discuss Iowa beating Kentucky 21-0 in the Music City Bowl. 4:22 Will Jim Harbaugh leave Michigan for the NFL 18:40 Where does Michigan go if Jim Harbaugh leaves 32:20 Tulane stuns USC in the Cotton Bowl 46:24 Penn State wins the Rose Bowl over Utah 35-21 49:35 Mississippi State takes the victory over Illinois in the Reliaquest Bowl 55:00 Iowa wins 21-0 against Kentucky in the Music City Bowl Stay up to date with the latest college football news and coverage from Yahoo Sports on Twitter @YahooSportsCFB.

Dan Wetzel, SI’s Pat Forde & SI’s Ross Dellenger recap all the excitement from the college football playoff semifinals on today’s pod. The guys start with the shootout in Atlanta where the Georgia Bulldogs just barely outlasted the Ohio State Buckeyes in a 42-41 thriller. A shaky start from Georgia and Stetson Bennett gave Ohio State hope, but the Bulldogs escaped on a last-second missed field goal.

Dan Wetzel, SI’s Pat Forde & SI’s Ross Dellenger give their full breakdowns for the College Football Playoff semifinals matchups between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Ohio State Buckeyes & the Michigan Wolverines taking on the TCU Horned Frogs. Before we get to the game previews and predictions, the guys chat about new developments in whether bowl games could start distributing money to the players who participate in them. Ross details how the future structure could incentivize players who would opt out to play in the bowl games instead. Along with compensation, the bowls could be looking to raise the eligibility requirement by having teams need a winning record in order to play. In transfer portal news, former Wake Forest quarterback Sam Hartman has entered the transfer portal for his final year, seemingly in an attempt to make more NIL money before heading to the NFL. Elsewhere, Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy was fiery with a reporter after losing his bowl game to Wisconsin, so the guys speculate who was in the right.
