Colin is joined by college football guru Josh Pate to break down the first weekend of the college football season.

They start with Arch Manning’s extremely shaky start for Texas against Ohio State and whether his lofty expectations entering the season were far too high (3:30). They preview Oklahoma vs Michigan and debate whether Michigan’s Bryce Underwood is a generational talent at quarterback (6:45).

They move to UNC and whether Bill Belichick’s inability to recruit good personnel could lead to an underwhelming tenure at Chapel Hill (10:15), and discuss whether Kalen DeBoer’s laid back style of coaching will work at a football crazed SEC school like Alabama, living in the shadow of Nick Saban(17:15).

They highlight the resurgence of the Florida schools, particularly Miami, and debate whether the Hurricanes could be a national title contender (31:00).

Finally, they discuss the outlook for USC and whether Lincoln Riley is the type of head coach that can build a winning culture, and not just be a great scheme guy (38:00).

Colin is joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to kick off the football season.

They start with Ohio State beating Texas, and their concerns with quarterback Arch Manning missing easy throws and showing a lack of elite arm strength (4:00). They recap Miami vs. Notre Dame and they argue that both teams look like top 10, playoff level teams (13:30).

They move to Florida State upsetting #8 Alabama and debate what went wrong for the Crimson Tide and whether head coach Kalen DeBoer’s more relaxed coaching style will work in the SEC (23:45).

They pivot to the NFL and discuss the Cowboys decision to trade star pass rusher Micah Parsons to the Packers and Colin argues it could be a win-win for both teams (33:45). John believes that the strong organizational culture could benefit Parsons, and Colin explains why he thinks Dallas could implode this season (40:00).

Finally, they review the betting lines for week 1 in the NFL and what they say about the 49ers, Seahawks, Bears, Vikings and more (52:15)!
