Penn State head coach James Franklin joins to talk about the Nittany Lions’ superstars Tyler Warren and Drew Allar. He shares why Penn State values player development over adding players from the transfer portal and what’s led to his success over 11 seasons at Penn State.

Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz & Adam Breneman react to the latest College Football Playoff Rankings. How is 14th ranked BYU in the playoffs but 11th ranked Tennessee misses out? In a playoff where seeding doesn’t follow the rankings passed down from the committee, does this system need to be reinvented before it’s even begun?

The trio preview the biggest matchups of Week 13 including a classic David vs. Goliath game between Indiana and Ohio State and a Big 12 battle of BYU at Arizona State.

Was Dan Lanning out of line to fake a field goal rather than put the ball in Dillon Gabriel’s hands? Oregon keeps their perfect season alive on the road at Wisconsin but not without some controversy. Caroline Fenton, Jason Fitz & Adam Breneman break down that game plus, in the SEC, Carson Beck finally looks like the QB we thought he’d be as the Georgia Bulldogs take down the Tennessee Volunteers. Elsewhere, LSU goes down HARD to the Florida Gators whose bowl chances are looking up after the win.

Caroline, Fitz & Adam share their biggest takeaways from the weekend including why Billy Napier and Florida will be the talk of the town in the offseason and which two players have pulled ahead in the Heisman race.

(55:31) Heisman race narrows to two

Caroline Fenton & Jason Fitz react to the second edition of the 2024 College Football Playoff Rankings. Only two weeks into the 12-team rankings and with Boise State in, Georgia out, Miami as the four seed, and three Big 10 teams in the top four—is the new playoff system already broken?

The two give an update on the most likely Heisman contenders. Should Miami’s Cam Ward have the edge over Colorado’s dual-threat, Travis Hunter? Are Alabama’s Jalen Milroe and Ole Miss’ Jaxson Dart pretenders or contenders for the Heisman?

Caroline & Fitz share which games they’re watching in Week 12 such as Tennessee at Georgia, Utah at Colorado, and (if you’re truly desperate for something to watch) Nebraska on the road at USC.
