What a Thursday of games! LSU-Tennessee was maybe the best game all year, Mississippi State notches a top-10 win over Oklahoma and two very different-looking ACC games go to overtime. Not to mention, USC-Maryland was a thriller on Wednesday, and South Carolina-Texas comes on Sunday! Rob and Megan hit on all of those games and more, plus they have a great chat with Lulu Kesin of The Greenville News to talk about the impact of Ashlyn Watkins' injury on South Carolina and get her thoughts on the team as a whole.

We got CFP games coming back into our lives on Thursday and Friday night, so let's get the gang back together to break these down. The squad is assembled; Roddy Jones, Wayne Cook, Hartzell, and the Doc join forces to run through the Orange Bowl & Cotton Bowl. We head to Texas to bring in Craig Way, the Voice of the Longhorns, to give us some local perspective on Texas' chances as an underdog against mighty Ohio State on Friday. Could we be in line for the first real upset of this year's playoff? Roddy is calling the Orange Bowl for national radio, so he gives us a full breakdown of what to expect in the rock fight we all expect between Notre Dame and Penn State. Plus the guys make some picks and predictions to close out the show.

CFP Quarterfinals are in the books and we're going to talk about them. Wayne and Felder join Hartzell (no Roddy because he's nursing a sore throat) to recap the four games that got us here. Full recaps of the Sugar, Rose, Peach, and Fiesta bowls, plus what it means moving forward in the semis. Obviously Ohio State is the team to beat, but what do the guys make of Texas' escape vs ASU? There are some members of the show that believe Notre Dame has the best QB left in the tournament, which is a take. What do the losses for Georgia and Oregon say about those two programs; bump in the road or harbinger of things to come? Why did all four teams that had byes lose, and what does that say about the future CFP models? Plenty to discuss as we ring in the new year on the first CSN of 2025!

Do you like fouls? Then you probably loved Texas-Oklahoma. Rob Joyce and Megan Gauer ring in the New Year by recapping the Longhorns' win, talking USC's improved form, and hitting on Maryland now that they've played someone worth talking about with the Michigan State victory. Then we hand out some conference superlatives and preview a massive week upcoming across the country, with games on games on games.

The final show of 2024 with the fellas. Felder, Wayne, Hartzell, and the Doc huddle up to run through the CFP Quarterfinal games over New Year's. To start, there are takes on Jim Mora running his mouth, Jayden Daniels vs Michael Penix, and the 'good old days' of bowl season, but there is also real, actual, football talk. The guys rank the 8 starting quarterbacks still alive in the playoff, and you might be surprised who some of the guys think is at the bottom of the list. What's the path to Boise or ASU pulling off a monster upset, and which of those two teams is more likely to shake up the bracket? Will either team in the Sugar Bowl eclipse 20 points? Would an Oregon blow out - however unlikely - mean the end for Ryan Day? All that and a whole lot more covered over a 90-minute end-of-the-year edition of CSN. Happy New Years, everybody!

Let's be honest, we're all exhausted. Christmas is over, but it's not quite New Year's Eve, either. Everything is a blur and things are hazy. Life feels confusing. The only way you actually know it's Friday is because Michael Felder is talking ball with us here on CSN. The Doc and Hartzell are alongside for an hour of CFP reaction, previews of next week's quarterfinals, and an overall health and wellness check - on each other, but also the sport of college football. How many teams, of the eight remaining, does Felder actually think can win a natty? The answer might be a lot smaller than you think. Tripp has PTSD from the Gasparilla Bowl so he's trigger shy on the picks, and Hartzell has takes on the Birmingham Bowl. Happy Holidays, everybody!

It's Christmas Eve but the takes must be released. Roddy Jones and Wayne Cook join Hartzell to run through all of the CFP 1st round reactions, including some well-balanced, reasoned takes on why we had 4 lopsided games over the weekend. Blowouts happen, you know. It's college sports. What did Roddy make of seeing Penn State up close and personal on Saturday? Are the Nittany Lions championship-level? Will Wayne be on-hand at the Rose Bowl to take in Dillon Gabriel's feet with his own eyes? A look back at the games that were, and a peek ahead to the quarterfinal matchups that start on New Year's Eve. Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays, everybody!

You knew it was coming. Part deux of the CSN CFP preview features Michael Felder & Wayne Cook along with Hartzell and the Doc to run through the first-round games that start with Friday night lights in South Bend. The guys run through all four games this weekend and break down the matchups; Who would you rather have, Klubnik or Ewers? Which head coach not named Ryan Day has the most pressure on them to win? Do we trust Penn State to do the thing? You'll be surprised to know who the consensus upset pick was, but stick around for picks at the end of the show PLUS a mental health check on the whole gang since we're **checks notes** five days out from Christmas. Land the plane, boys. Land the plane.
