Tyson Alger and Justin Myers kick off August with fall camp in full swing and a fake controversy leading the Oregon news cycle: Dylan Raiola’s perfectly standard “I like it here better” transfer quote somehow becomes a national talking point. From there, they zoom out on college football’s weirder traditions: Do we actually still need the coaches’ poll? Are conference media days useful, or just content cosplay and an excuse for writers to expense a trip? Is all the “culture/chemistry/retreat” talk any different from what every other program is doing?Then the good stuff: Bend vs. the coast, what it’s like to be a civilian at a packed Zach Bryan show at Autzen (fireworks and all), and the emotional journey of being awarded — and then mentally defending — a coveted work parking spot.

The World Cup is over. Whatever will we do? Oh right, this is a football podcast. So this week, we're back on football -- with a slight turn toward the end about the billionaire trying to ruin our basketball team.

Tyson Alger and Justin Myers mourn the end of the USA’s World Cup run and ask the big question: Didn't we do this a couple of years ago with Colorado? They relive the wild scene in Seattle, debate why decades of MLS growth still haven’t moved the needle for Team USA on the global stage then pivot to the most American thing possible: Big 12 Media Days. They break down the now-infamous “tortillas vs. noisemakers” question, imagine a world where each school can ban one rival tradition (goodbye chainsaw, shout, and dotting the i), and share war stories about asking long, winding questions in press conferences while a coach quietly sharpens the knives.

Ja Morant is a Portland Trail Blazer. OK, then. On this week's Traffic Report, Tyson and Justin digest that news, then dig a bit into LeBron's next stop, the World Cup, the Savannah Bananas at Autzen and what it would take for Oregon to have a Joey Harrington-billboard-like cultural moment again.

Tyson is back from the World Cup to debrief Justin on USA/Australia, crossing the border and the reason why Americans are finally following the world's game.

The World Cup is here. Tyson is excited, Justin is doing his best, and on this week's Traffic Report, the two preview the upcoming tournament and reminisce about the last time the U.S. hosted in 1994. Then, it's on to Brennan Scorsbey, Texas Tech and the college football scandal de jour.

The Oregon Ducks are on to the Super Regional in Austin after a sweep through the Eugene Regional -- and Oregon State. Tyson and Justin discuss what this means in this week's I-5 Corridor Traffic Report.

Oregon brought back baseball with exact visions of this weekend -- it just took about a decade longer than anyone thought. On this week's Traffic Report, Tyson and Justin dive into all things Ducks and Beavers as the Eugene Regional of the NCAA baseball tournament gets underway.

It's May, Justin had the weekend to himself and Tyson is sunburned from his trip to LA, which led to an off-the-rails episode of the Traffic Report that includes our thoughts on Oregon recruiting, hockey movie power rankings, using 1990s power hitters as a metaphor for a current health trend and that first feeling of collegiate freedom.Only three months 'till kickoff. Only three months 'till kickoff. Only three months 'till kickoff.

The Oregon Ducks were ahead of the curve. This week on the Traffic Report, Tyson and Justin discuss how a team that's been "cool" for so long can remain there.
