Episode 12: College football is right around the corner, and hosts Jacob Regh and Kevin Walker are back to break down the madness before kickoff. The guys dive headfirst into the newly released Preseason Top 25 poll, evaluating where the national media got it right and where they missed the mark completely—celebrating Clemson being left unranked, questioning why BYU sits so close to Texas Tech, and debating overrated vs. underrated squads like Notre Dame, LSU, and Washington.


 

Next, Jacob and Kevin unleash a fiery rant on the NCAA's controversial new gray area allowing NFL training camp cuts to return to college rosters and re-enter the transfer portal, examining how this trend hurts player development and displaces dedicated walk-ons.


 

Finally, the episode wraps up with their fourth and final conference tier ranking: the Big Ten. From Michigan's culture shift under Kyle Whittingham and the massive sophomore expectations for Bryce Underwood, to Lincoln Riley’s make-or-break year at USC, the guys rank every single program from D-tier to S-tier. They close it out with an electric debate over the conference’s true kings: Dan Lanning’s star-studded Oregon roster, Indiana's explosive dark-horse offense, and Ryan Day’s loaded Ohio State Buckeyes.
