Episode 450 is a special one — and it has absolutely nothing to do with college football. This week the guys dive headfirst into the Diana Russini / Mike Vrabel situation: Page Six photos, poolside hand-holding, a hot tub, and a trip down internet memory lane that surfaced some truly wild old clips. From calling herself a MILF on a DC morning radio show, to casually announcing on national TV that she did things in Miami she never told her husband about, to publicly calling her husband "average" — the internet has been busy.

Then things get weird. The Artemis moon launch leads to a CNN kid dropping an all-time live TV moment, followed by the greatest moon landing conspiracy rant ever recorded — delivered by what can only be described as someone's very loud Italian father from New Jersey. You'll hear him. You'll understand.

From there: Congressman Matt Gaetz's UFO briefing about alien-human hybrid breeding programs. A FEMA official who claims he was teleported 40 miles and ended up in a ditch outside a Baptist church on his way to Waffle House. Landline phones at Augusta National. And whether anyone actually knows their family's phone numbers anymore.

To close it out, the Madison Mallards unveil the Wiener Wallet — a single hot dog holster with a condiment pouch — and a Milwaukee news team absolutely cannot hold it together covering it. Then it's Five Questions: wild animal pets (tiger vs. honey badger vs. gorilla), the male version of receiving flowers, 80s trends worth bringing back, a film you'd want to see again for the first time, and the most oddly specific things your pets do.

Greg is a blackout drunk. You're welcome.

 Benched is the off-season companion show to Orange Bowl Boys — same guys, zero college football, maximum chaos.

Spring practice is heating up. Malachi Tony is rocking #1 and coming in with a chip on his shoulder. Mensa and D-Dog are already finishing each other's sentences. And the receiving room? Disgustingly deep. The guys debate whether this is the deepest Miami team in 20 years, break down the offensive line question nobody actually needs to worry about, and explain why the defense will need to find a new identity without Reuben Bain and Meador.

Plus: the NCAA drops a bombshell new age-eligibility rule (5 years from your 19th birthday, no exceptions), the Trump executive order on transfers, and what it all means for portal strategy going forward.

Off the field: one of the guys just got back from Augusta National for the Masters with Andrew Novak, and his behind-the-scenes report — $14 for two sandwiches, drinks, and two cookies; four egg salad sandwiches total; no phones; immaculate restrooms — is something else entirely.

Also in this episode: the show title bracket champion is crowned, a Kia Telluride gets a very creative modification, and someone finds their hat inside an Easter Bunny costume a full year after losing it.

We open with the jokes about going back to the moon, which launches us into the moon conspiracy corner about whether or not we've actually been there. Kristi Noem's husband also gets a nod about the cross-dressing allegations this week, and the memes have been out of control.

The story of the week is about coked up sharks roaming the Caribbean, which leads us to a debate about what animal we would not want to face.when hopped up on drugs. And hilarious audio from a=another idiot who lied to a judge about driving while in Zoom court, which allows us to revisit our all-time favorite morons in court.

And Roman closes it with a round of Five Questions... including what you're saying to the world when you step out of the moon lander, rules we follow for no logical reason, our comfort foods, things that seem like they should be an April Fool's joke but aren't, and

Roman also tweeted out this week that Miami is in "reload season" and as we look down the line-up of guys getting drafted compared to all the new guys coming in, it's impressive how much they've been able to sustain compared to how much they lost. And that speaks to the new culture they've built in Miami, especially seeing guys who are headed to the pros come back to work with the new guys at Spring practice. Plus we showcase a little of Mario's appearance on Josh Pate's show, speaking on when the season changed for Miami last year, and how the guys feel it will change going into this year.

And as we get further down the depth chart, the discussion about Judd rising up to the 2 spot at QB takes over, with what to expect from Dereon going forward and what it means for his future in Miami. We also hear from Cooper Barkate, who while training in LA talked about the wild transfer process from Duke while Mensah was getting sued. Toast also shines the spotlight on some of the standout freshmen making a name for themselves at Spring practice.

Audio of the week comes to us from the WILD UConn comeback and upset over Duke, as we play both the UConn call (which was awful) and the Duke call (which was borderline hilarious), spinning us into a debate who reigns supreme in Toast's fandom. And the hilarious moment at the Elite Eight where the shot clock horn got stuck.

We start with the saga of Afroman, who sued an entire police department and then roasted them on the Internet. Everyone chimes in on how much we love the story, and how funny it was that Afroman was most pissed about the cops stealing his mom's lemon pound cake!

From there we get into the wild story about the pickleball brawl at a Florida seniors community, involving a golf cart chase and an alligator, which leads us into stories about the dumbest fights we've ever gotten into. And hands-down the craziest story of the week about the quadruple amputee who allegedly shot an acquaintance then drove away, which ends in absolute hysterics.

As always Roman closes out the show with Five Questions - which include our favorite Chuck Norris jokes, how we feel about the new Ruth's Chris dress policy, the job we would never do for $10 million a year, one thing we wish we found in our attics, and who we would trust to arrange a marriage for us.

And Spring practice is officially underway, and everyone was most impressed with Dereon Coleman and the way he's slinging the ball early in practice. Josh Pate also has high praise for the way Mario runs his practices, and how brutally physical they are, and how the rest of college football wishes they could pull that off at their schools. Scoop also weighs in on the projected two-deep projections and how deep the wide receiver room is this season.

We also enjoy TCU head coach Sonny Dykes absolutely destroying his former QB Josh Hoover, who signed a $2 million deal with Indiana. And we also have huge props for Jai Lucas after an amazing season of Miami basketball comes to an end in the round of 32, which also spins us into the debate whether or not Michael Jordan will come back to coach North Carolina.

We start with the wild story about the meteor that broke up in the atmosphere over Northern Ohio - including the wild "boom" and some hilarious dashcam footage from one guys' car. And after the story about Michael B. Jordan going to In-and-Out after winning his Oscar, we all weigh in with where we are headed to eat after a major life victory.

Another story surfaced this past week about a film company rebooting the Jean-Claude Van Damme classic "Bloodsport" and what movies should never be rebooted. And hilarious audio of an LA helicopter reporter who lost track of his car chase because he was distracted watching some chickens walk down the road.

And of course we round it out with a round of Five Questions - which this week include what your worst fart smells like, something that feels like a cult but isn't, what would be your weapon as the 5th Ninja Turtle, our overall thoughts on COVID during the 6-year anniversary, and our favorite all-time OBB moments.

Our friends at 247 dropped their two-deep projections for Miami going into the season, and the more we look at it, the more confident we feel that this team will make a big push again this season. We dive into the depth in the Running Backs room, and how these offensive lineman will hold up with an almost entirely new crew. And on the defense we are all really excited to have Ahmad Moten back again, with hopes that he could become a stalwart of the Miami defense this season.

FanDuel also dropped their expected win totals for the 2026 season, with Miami near the top of the list, and somehow Notre Dame is sitting ahead of us, even though the line for the upcoming game in November has grown to 4.5 favorites for Miami. We also have early Heisman odds that include both Darian Mensah and Malachi Toney - with Josh Pate making his case for Darian Mensah.

We start with audio of the week from two separate heartbreaking losses, including the orgasmic call of the LA marathon runner who won at the very last second. (Toast seemed to enjoy this one a little too much.) Plus audio of the New York high school baseball team that lost on the final "strike" of the game, and the hapless young announcer that didn't even know what was going on as it was happening.

Even more crazy audio comes from a Michigan court, where a woman is accused of having sex in a Zoom court meeting and gets called out by the judge - who actually stopped court to go back and watch the video! And finally the craziest story of the week about the Cal State Bakersfield assistant basketball coach who was moonlighting as a PIMP across four states - wild!!

And Roman closes it out with another round of Five Questions... which included our biggest "I need to keep my mouth shut" moments, the most mind blowing facts we know, the best and worst things that happened to us this week, what Hollywood actor did not age well, and the first thing you do when you get home - which spins into yet another food conversation

We also jump into ESPN's write-up on Miami's "challenging" offseason, in that teams that have made their title runs in previous years have not found a way back to the title game. But everyone seems to think Miami's recruiting and reloading is the difference in getting the Canes back into the mix pretty quickly. That includes Mario going in on a lot of the big South Florida recruits and trying to keep these guys home like Rueben Bain Jr did. 

From the Greentree, we transition over to the Watco, as Miami Basketball knocked off Louisville and advanced to the semifinals of the ACC tournament and set themselves up for a March Madness bid. And we shouldn't be surprised that Jai Lucas got overlooked for Coach of the Year in the ACC, even though he was clear-and-away the most deserving for the award. Plus after a few struggles for Miami baseball, Toast and Roman weigh in on where this team needs improvement to make a run when it counts this summer.

We open the show with the Audio of the Week from the NBA on NBC, featuring Bob Costas and "two great Dicks," even though we promised no more dick jokes on last week's show. Toast mentions the "In Memoriam" segment at the Actor's Awards and how the entire last two minutes were all people from our childhood. 

Plus everyone offers ideas on what the Miami Marlins could do to put butts in the seats, after the St Louis Cardinals this week rolled out their $29 "all you can eat" seats. Miami strip clubs also get a nod on the promotional front, in the wake of the story about the Atlanta Hawks having a tribute night this month for one of Atlanta's most iconic strip clubs, Magic City. Tootsies night at the Heat game? And the man with the world's smallest penis makes everyone wildly uncomfortable for a few minutes.

And Roman brings it all home with another round of Five Questions - which include A-List actors that we don't like and why, healthy habits that are completely made up, something strange that happened to us, something people think is hard but is actually easy, and the wedding moment that screamed "they're not gonna last long."

Plus we touch on Mario's inclusion in TIME Magazine's Top 100 Most Influential People in Sports, including our boy Josh Pray weighing in like only he can, and whether or not that's a real thing or an internet hoax. Brad Crawford also puts Miami at #1 in his way-too-early bowl predictions and how that makes us feel looking at the schedule ahead of us in 2026.

And we touch on the successes of Miami basketball, with the prediction that Jai Lucas will be the ACC Coach of the Year in his first season. That spins us into the upcoming Show Title March Madness bracket and how it will follow the course of the tournament. And despite a couple of tough losses we talk a little about Miami baseball, who is looking to rebound against Bethune - as Toast talks about his stress level when he watches his nephew play. Plus everyone has thoughts about Mississippi making NIL earnings tax exempt.

We open with a quick revisit to the French skier who took a shot to the nuts, for Scoop's amusement who missed it last show. We also jump into the call and reaction to the US Olympic Hockey Team defeating Canada and winning the Gold - including all the amazing memes, and how everyone loved enjoying the unadulterated patriotism.

From there we get into all the new UFL rules - including 60-yard four-point field goals - and which of them we'd like to see adopted by today's NFL. We also run down CBS's list of the Top 10 college football coaches on the hot seat, which of course is led by Mike Norvell. And the story of the week about a 12-year-old North Carolina boy who drove himself to school after missing the bus, leads to stories about the things we did as kids that got us in the most trouble.

And Roman brings it all home with another round of Five Questions - which include our thoughts on Pokemon turning 30, how you would be able to decipher your real wife from an identical twin, lies we were told as kids that still bother us, textures and smells that bother us, and the dumbest ideas we've seen that actually worked.

Plus we debate about the merit of Mendoza going #1 and whether or not that will pan out for the team that will draft him. We also jump into Rueben's hilarious comments on Michael Irvin, where Akheem Mesidor might land in the Draft, and what happened to Damien Martinez. And we all relish in the audio of Mario destroying Kirby Smart at a writer's event in Gainesville. 

Then we are joined by the reigning ACC Player of the Week, Dylan Dubovik! We talk to Dylan about his scorching hot start at Miami, the biggest change going from high school to college ball, and what it's like to face pro-level pitching. Dylan also talks about his approach at the plate, his pitching possibilities going forward, and how to find a way to keep performing at such a high level. Dylan's roommate Bennett Gary who has also been killing it for the Canes, and they joke about the dugout celebrations, milkshakes and who is the cleaner roommate.

We roll out our weekly bonus show that starts with some classic audio of a French skier catching a gate in the nuts, leading us into stories about our worst shot to the beans. That also leads us into some of the more wild Olympic sports we've seen over the years. Which takes us into the new viral trend of Run In Straight collisions which is the new way to get CTE, and Toast is here for every minute of it.

We somehow get into the priest DJ who plays Gregorian house music and it's wild how good it is when we find it online! Plus the Norwegian athlete who cheated on his girlfriend and admitted it to the world at the Olympic games, and UTSA Head Coach Jeff Traylor's not-so-crazy fundraising idea for the Road Runners. 

And we round it out with Five Questions, which include what skill in our proverbial video game "skill tree" we'd upgrade first, childish things we still do as adults, our first "unusual" crushes, who you would want as the sponsor of your F1 race team, and our worst first date stories!

The state of the defense comes into question, as we are now missing out on some 5-star recruits (largely due to money) and what that means for recruiting going forward. And we're shocked at how boujee we sound by saying we should be getting all these five-star guys because this was never the state of Miami football! Miami also broke his silence on Darian Mensah this week - calling him an "alpha" - and we hear from him on the state of the program and the "positive anger" they have to get back to the title game.

Props to Jai Lucas and the Miami basketball team for knocking off North Carolina in Coral Gables, and how Jai might end up as the ACC Coach of the Year - which would be a WILD turnaround for this program. And while Toast loved the Super Bowl because his team was so dominant, Ro felt like it was a terribly boring game and Drake Maye was seeing horrible ghosts all night.

Josh's hate for Miami bleeds through as he takes a look at his Florida Gators, who celebrated winning four games this past season. And we jump into our favorite stories of the week with Josh, starting off Jarrell Miller getting his toupee knocked off during a boxing match. Plus the news report about the Miami-Dade suspect who decided to grab a detective's ass on his way to prison.

Josh also weighs in on the iguana problem in South Florida, and whether or not anyone on the show has tried the Iguana Pizza. The topics spin wildly into our favorite Ben Stiller movies, and the Massachusetts man who burned his house down trying to melt ice on his roof with a blowtorch. And we close it out with another hilarious round of Five Questions, and some win-loss game with Josh Pray as we go through Florida's 2026 schedule.

They cover everything from Dereon's recruitment and what pushed him to stay with Miami, the National Championship experience, who he has bonded with on the team and even what number he hopes to wear.

Eric also has high praise for Miami's offense, which loaded up in the portal beyond the QB spot, and how it has the potential to be so much more explosive than it was last season. And with more weapons in the WR room and a stacked RB room, Eric thinks that's the blueprint for his prediction of a decade of Miami dominance. Plus our concerns for the defense are quickly squashed by Eric who paints the picture of the defense being just fine with the replacements that are coming in this season. He goes as far as to say Miami is now the best team in the country, and the challenge now is whether they can live up to it.

And before he takes off, Eric takes a look around the ACC and offers up some of his predictions and expectations for the teams around the conference. We also kick around CBS Sports predicting Miami as the #1 seed coming into the season, which is especially interesting because they have Notre Dame at #2, setting up an epic showdown for later this year. Plus everyone has an opinion on Mark Ingram picking Malachi Toney as his "way too early" Heisman pick, and how big the Canes will perform in the 2026 NFL Draft.

The winter storm last week brought us some amazing audio of a weather girl in Oklahoma who mistakenly asked for people's "measurements" on Facebook. And everyone has some big laughs at the guy who went viral this week for charging guests $450 to attend his wedding because he already "spunt" a lot of money. Finally a salute to the garage fridge from a viral tweet this week, and the unbelievable audio of a man getting tazed during a high school basketball fight in the south. 

And we round out this new weekly bonus show with Five Questions! This week we talk about what put a smile on our face this week, the most financially irresponsible thing we've seen someone do, what people should be forced to have on their license (which spins into a wild conversation about our favorite movies), what book you can judge by its cover, and the most disturbing thing we've ever seen.

Scoop and Roman really go deep into what to expect from Mensah as he gets ready to take to the Greentree, and Roman explains that his tweet that aligned Mensah closer to Cam Ward than Carson Beck was NOT a shot at Beck, but a nod to Mensah's style. Plus these offensive weapons coming into the year might be the best we've seen in years, which is saying a lot after going 23-5 in the last two seasons. 

The 2026 season also dropped this week, with a bunch of weeknight games and a couple of tough ones on the road, a seeming lack of respect for the runners up to the National Championship this year. And there are already 11-1 predictions being thrown around and debates about what unexpected team is going to jump up and be a problem for the Canes. We also throw some congratulations to the Canes who will be playing in the Super Bowl, play some hilarious audio from a drunk Seahawks fan on the local news, and close out the show with the debate about Bill Belichick being snubbed from the Hall of Fame.

Toast's voice is SHOT and he's really concerned that Scoop and Roman aren't as cooked as he is. But even though we're reluctant to rehash the pain of this special teams loss, because it's something that wasn't on our radar, as Roman really goes in on the blocked punt. Toast tries his hardest to be the voice of reason, saying the missed field goal could have made a big difference down the stretch, and Scoop tells the heart-breaking story of how his daughter burst into tears after the blocked punt.

The debate rages about the future of the program, and whether you have the right guys in the culture going forward. And Roman speaks bluntly about the late-game interceptions by Carson Beck - aside from him being very good for a large majority of the season - and he's looking for an upgrade under center next season. Toast responds to the criticism of Beck very strongly, and Scoop tries to break down the last interception, trying to figure out if there were better throws he left on the field.

We dial down on some of the bigger headlines after the game, including Mark Fletcher's incident on the field after the game and how the remarks about his father are what really set him off. Plus we hear from new official OBB Eric MacLain who said on ACC Network that Miami is set up for a decade of dominance, and audio from Mario about what he said to the team immediately after the loss. And Scoop talks about all the guys from this team that he's going to miss because they are truly the best thing to happen to Miami football in 25 years.

Roman polls the show to see who called for Mario's firing after some of the bigger losses - to which no one raises their hand. And Toast polls the show with a higher-or-lower question about whether Miami wins a Natty within the next three years... and Scoop and Ro both go under! And we address the situation with Mensah - who IS now in the Portal - and how that deal could still come together even if it takes a little more time than expected. And if they don't land him, we try to dissect how the quarterback competition would shake out.

We also close out our Pick Ems for the 2025, as Toast wins the season picks for the first time in a few years. And Roman brings back the one and only FIVE QUESTIONS - which this week includes examples of things that are suspiciously nice, what industry would collapse if people couldn't lie, what we think is on the dark side of the moon, the best scene in TV history, and what company has the worst logo.

Things open with everyone on edge - with Toast even saying this is the most nervous he's ever been for a show. Plus we touch on the parking mess that is unfolding at Hard Rock Stadium, which we are willing to overlook because it still hasn't sunk in that we're actually playing in the National Championship. And as we get down to Greentree we take a look at the Indiana fans, who are the weirdest group of fans we've ever interacted with. 

We are joined right off the tip by ACC Network host and ESPN analyst ERIC MACLAIN, who comes to the table in Miami gear, and immediately gets into the strangeness of Indiana fans. Eric also lays out the road for Miami following the SMU game and what changed after that game for the Hurricanes. Ro also gets Eric's opinion on the coaching prowess in the ACC compared to some of the other conferences, something that could give Miami an advantage going into games like these. 

We also talk with Eric about the evolution of the Miami offense over the last two months of the season, his impressions of Carson Beck's leadership and intellect, and the true impact that Rueben Bain and Akheem Mesidor have on a game. Plus Eric gives his keys to beating Indiana and it all starts with Fernando Mendoza having time to throw the ball. 

Then our old friend and OBB alum RODDY JONES jumps in - feature heavily on ESPN's College Football coverage this year! And right off the bat he breaks the news to the show that he's picking Indiana in this game, even though he picked Miami to win the title on TV. At which point we ask Roddy to lay out where Indiana has the advantages in this game. He also thinks that no matter how good Indiana is, they are still going to have a hard time with Bain and Mesidor up front. And we get Roddy's official score, and what it would take for him to be wrong about picking the Hoosiers.

And we close out with everyone's Three Keys to a Miami win - which include Beck's decision making, playing clean without penalties and finding ways to limit Fernando Mendoza. Jenners also asks everyone on the show what they are willing to sacrifice to see Miami win a title on Monday night. And everyone makes their picks for the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME!!

Toast wants to start by giving Carson Beck his flowers, largely for the final drive of the game, because if he gets this done he'll go down in history as one of the greatest Canes of all time. But there were a lot of negatives to discuss, even if Scoop is too happy to argue about that stuff right now. The offensive game plan, the penalties, the missed calls... there was a lot that broke our way to make up for those miscues. And of course everyone has an opinion on the debate of the day... whether there should have been pass interference called on the final Hail Mary of the game.

Plus we hear Alfre Alvarez's electric Spanish call of the Carson Beck game-winning touchdown, and we all have some high praise for Trinidad Chambliss who we all agree could be a star at the NFL level. We also talk about Mario's emotions last night, especially since it probably killed him to admit that most of the Miami team had the flu, because he would want to win with his guys at full strength. And we hear from the sports bettors in Vegas who are really afraid for Miami to win because their futures were the worst of the Playoff teams.

As we wrap things up, we would have to mention the rushing game, which showed up BIG against Ole Miss. And we touch on the wild Sam Leavitt rumors that are swirling tonight and how IF that happened, it would be three straight years of nailing the top quarterback in the portal. Closing things out is the rant from our friend, comedian and Gator fan Josh Pray who sends us out on a laugh!

We are all HYPED as we get ready to take on Ole Miss for a shot to play at HOME for the National Championship... even if they make us sit on the visitor side because we would technically be the lower seed if we make it. And we open with an all-time quote from OC Shannon Dawson - "if the ball's in your hands, the program's in your hands" - as we dissect how the offense performed against Ohio State and how that will translate to the Rebels. 

But before we get too far into Ole Miss we have to relive the Kionte Scott pick 6 as called by Joe Zagaki on WQAM, which leads us into some of our favorite moments from the win over Ohio State. And as the analysts believe that the "stars are aligned" for Ole Miss to continue their run, we feel like these are guys who are still looking at things through the lens of the SEC, which has crumbled this season. 

Plus it wouldn't be a show if we didn't take a minute to laugh at the downward spiral of FSU as they have 33 players in the portal as of this show. That leads to a brief conversation about the madness in the portal, and whether Miami will be in the running for a portal QB or if the fanbase is going to have to prepare for a true QB competition. And Toast addresses some of the "big spenders" in the NIL market and how Canes fans should be prepared to not be the biggest spender, but rather get the guys that Mario wants because we trust his roster building acumin. 

Then we go BIG with the Ole Miss preview, as Roman spent time in the film room and thinks that despite what Mario is saying, Ole Miss is not the best team the Canes will face in the Playoff... that was Ohio State. And while Trinidad Chambliss is a very special player, who had a lot to say about Miami's defense not disrupting their offensive scheme, it was Miami who has found a way to slow down mobile quarterbacks this season. 

Everyone drops their keys to a Miami win over Ole Miss, which include pressuring Chambliss, limiting your penalties, hammering the run game, making all your kicks, watching the roll-out plays and Carson Beck's poise. And we make our picks and predictions for the Semifinal games, including everyone's pick for Miami vs Ole Miss.

The game, which ended with a 24-14 scoreline, saw Miami emerging victorious despite being 10-point underdogs. This victory propels Miami to the semi-finals, highlighting their physical prowess on the lines of scrimmage and a relentless defense that stifled Ohio State's offense. The Hurricanes' ability to dominate in the trenches was pivotal, reminding fans of classic, hard-nosed football strategies. 

The team has now defeated both participants from last year’s national championship game, underscoring a resurgence in the Miami football program. The recap comments on the significance of this win, the team's journey, and potential path to a national championship, fostering optimism among long-term fans.

Everyone is hyped coming into one of the biggest shows we've ever done, with Ohio State players talking a lot in the media this week and how players like Jeremiah Smith could have been a Hurricane if this team was built like it is now. And while we understand that narrative, Scoop isn't buying into guys who only want to play for "good" teams instead of helping build a winner. Plus we have to discuss the history of things, and how important this rematch is for those of us who remember being robbed of a National Championship in 2003 and what it means for Canes fans.

Miami comes into this game as a 10-point dog, and we're surprised that the spread is that big, especially to Roman who did a lot of film work on Ohio State this week. Scoop also comes in with some numbers to paint the picture of Shannon Dawson's offense versus Matt Patricia's defense, and how Dawson will need to call the game of his life to find a way to beat a Super Bowl winning DC. We also get clips from Carson Beck feeling confident in the game plan, Shannon Dawson responding to haters from the A&M low-scoring game, and even Colin Cowherd who is now suddenly all over the Miami bandwagon.

We are also SO PROUD to announce that we've extended our partnership with the amazing staff at Paul Bange Roofing for another season of the Orange Bowl Boys! To celebrate (?) we get a check-in from our very own I.P. Daley who checks in from Dallas and as always burns the house down. And the question is posed about whether the running game for Miami can be as effective against Ohio State as it was against Texas A&M, specifically Mark Fletcher, and Ro says he doesn't have to go nuclear to still run away with a game.

Everyone brings out their Keys to the Game to win against Ohio State - including converting on 3rd downs, playing the villain, keeping Beck's pants clean (again), pressure from the front four, hitting kicks and keeping OH's offense off the field. And we do our quarter-final picks for the Orange Bowl, Rose Bowl, Sugar Bowl and of course the Cotton Bowl picks for Miami vs Ohio State. And make sure to join us for the LIVE STREAM

Everyone opens with high praise for Corey Hetherman as the defense played absolutely out of their MINDS yesterday, holding Texas A&M to 3 points at Kyle field. Toast lays out the stat of the week - that Miami has allowed only 44 points in the last five games - three of which were conference games, and an SEC Playoff game on the road. There is also a lot of credit and love to go around on the defensive side of the ball. 

We have SO much audio to dive into, including Alfre Alvarez's Spanish call of Toney's late touchdown, and we relive Fitzgerald's game-winning interception and talk about how impressive he was in that game, and has been all-season for a freshman. And what a freshmen combo between him and Toney, who were both heroes yesterday. And Mark Fletcher's performance yesterday was impressive enough, but even more so when he talked about consoling Malachi Toney after the costly fumble. That also leads Scoop into a breakdown of the running backs and how (and why) they utilized Mark Fletcher as much as they did yesterday.

There is also high praise for the line of scrimmage, as even Mike Elko said after the game that Miami dominated them in the trenches and how that lost them the game. Rhett Lashley and Eric MacLain from the ACC Network had very high praise for the Canes, saying that the gap between the ACC and SEC has closed significantly, especially when you look at teams like Miami. Plus we get into all the points that were left on the field for Miami yesterday - including CJ Daniels getting a few steps on the defender and the throw coming up a little short, and Malachi's punt return that went all the way down to the 25 and the Canes walked away without points.

The end of the game becomes a point of contention - on whether Malachi should have run out of bounds to set up the game-winning field goal, or to take the TD (as they did) and try to stump A&M offense, which almost blew up in their face. It was still a WILD game and we had a blast taking it all in on our live stream. Up next... OHIO STATE ON NEW YEAR'S EVE!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM OUR ENTIRE CREW AT THE ORANGE BOWL BOYS!! We are so thankful for all the support this year and love being on this ride with the best fanbase in all of sports. GO CANES!!!

We are joined by PGA Champion Andrew Novak, fresh off a big win last weekend, and a lifelong Canes fan - as we get ready for the biggest game we've seen in probably 20 years. As we get down to Greentree, Toast admits that he's starting to feel the anticipation, while Scoop and Roman are still pretty chill. Ro also has done a lot of film breakdown in the last week and is starting to feel a swell of confidence as he compares Miami to Texas A&M, and calls the Canes walking out with a win.

Texas A&M running back Rueben Owens II rustled a lot of Miami's feathers this week when he said Miami's run defense "isn't a challenge." And Roman breaks down what to be on the lookout for from Marcell Reed because he's not a strong pocket passer. Toast also wants to address the 800-pound gorilla in the room, asking if anyone is worried about the 11am Central start time, but everyone thinks that this team isn't going to falter in this situation. 

Plus Josh Pate weighs in with his pick for the game - which goes to Texas A&M - and Roman immediately throws a monkey wrench in Pate's logic by saying it's all on Malachi Toney. Toast also gives the edge to Carson Beck in the QB battle, and Scoop thinks it will come down to how much protection the offensive line gives him. And we finally got a check in from I.P. Daley ahead of this epic Playoff weekend, and he doesn't disappoint!

Everyone lays out their keys to the game, including pinning Marcell Reed in the pocket, avoiding third and long, trusting in Carson Beck to deliver, not playing scared and getting some big plays over the top. There is also transfer portal news that has Lagway coming to Miami, which no one on the show believes, and we debate who Miami might target at QB1 and whether Sam Leavitt or CJ Bailey is that guy. 

Toast cuts off some time to roast the ACC for the horrible split schedule, which everyone thinks is a horrible idea as it will drop the entire conference out of balance. And some quick congrats to Fernando Mendoza for bringing home the Heisman, as we debate where he might land in the draft. Plus we close it out with a round of Pick 'Ems for the first round of the College Football Playoff, including everyone's prediction for the Miami game!

We also take a look at the status of our two coordinators, as Shannon Dawson and Corey Hetherman's names have come up in a lot of coaching discussions this offseason. And the fallout with Miami being the last team in, and Notre Dame being the first team out, has exploded across the College Football landscape, including Notre Dame AD Pete Bevacqua trying to burn down ND's relationship with the ACC. That includes amazing audio from Big12 Commissioner Brett Yormark burning the Notre Dame AD for the way he handled Miami missing the Playoffs.

Our friend and our NEW MERCH partner AB joins the show to announce the new line of OBB merch available for sale at www.aboutthefans.com including the "A Gap for Life" shirt that helped change Miami's offensive direction going into the last four games of the season. And lifelong Canes fan AB talks about celebrating the moment of Miami getting selected with his 9-year-old son, and what that moment has really meant to true Miami fans who have suffered from the outside for the last 20 years.

And while Notre Dame's national media collapse was initially the story of the week, Michigan said "hold my beer" by firing head coach Sherrone Moore with cause which spun into one of the wildest stories of the year so far. Plus audio from Eric MacLain on the ACC Network saying Miami is going to be a "matchup nightmare" for Texas A&M because they are a team that cannot be bullied. Everyone also has thoughts about Utah Athletics partnering with private equity for the future of their athletic program and how this will be a test case for the entire college football world going forward.

We close out the show with Marcell Reed on RG3's podcast, responding to Robert's "Estonian" wife, asking about what would happen if Miam offered him $4 million, some funny audio of the week from UConn head coach Dan Hurley, and everyone's picks for the Army-Navy game!

Plus we start to take a look at the game on December 20th at Texas A&M, which is somehow a Noon game (which we love for Miami) and how Notre Dame just up and quit on American by pulling out of their bowl game after being passed over for the CFP. Props also go out to Duke for taking down Virginia, even though it means they are left out of the Playoff, and accolades go out to Joe and Rudy for going all in and believing that Miami could be the football program of old again.

We also try to figure out how Alabama made it in with 3 losses over teams like Texas who are much better than they are, and how the play to keep them and drop Miami blew up in their face. And everyone tries to make sense of the Memorandum of Understanding signed between Notre Dame and the CFP that ND would automatically make the playoffs if they are ranked in the Top 12 next season. Plus some AMAZING audio from our friend Josh Pray, hilarious Notre Dame fan reactions, and even Paul Finebaum shutting down Notre Dame fans for all the whining they've done today after getting passed over.

Toast also runs down the current CFP first round schedule, with A&M opening as a 4 point favorite over the Canes, and there's no surprise that the G5 schools are huge underdogs, and everyone is super excited for the potential to get past Texas A&M and have a rematch against Ohio State for the 2002 National Championship. LET"S GO CANES!!

You can always gauge how far things go off the rail by whether they land on President Trump's desk, and sure enough Secretary of State Marco Rubio brought up Miami's potential to get screwed in a cabinet meeting this week! Even Duke head coach Manny Diaz agrees that Miami should be in the Playoffs even with all his history with the Hurricanes. And Texas coach Steve Sarkisian took a shot at Miami while lobbying for the Longhorns, but in reality he just needed to beat Florida and just mind his own business. Plus Roman wants to know where everyone puts their percentage of Miami making it into the Playoffs.

Signing Day was another HUGE win for the Canes, with the top class in the ACC for the fourth straight season, with some certified studs to keep Miami in contention for years to come. Plus even more audio from Josh Pate, breaking down why the Miami vs Notre Dame argument holds NO water, and even Colin Cowherd backing the U after tearing us down only two weeks ago. And we briefly touch on the Lane Kiffin drama at Ole Miss and how much of a weasel he was on his way out. James Franklin's drama with Penn State also takes the stage as we have some fun with the wild coaching hires this past week. And we close it out with Championship Weekend picks for all the big games!

Toast also makes a case for a positive return on investment in this coaching staff, after having very little faith earlier in the season... even if we don't get a Playoff bid after all this upswing the last month. Roman also supports Toast's idea to have an ACC Committee to ensure the best teams in the conference make the playoffs, largely due to the conference's unbalanced schedule, even if it would be a really hard process to moderate. And there aren't enough good things to say about Malachi Toney, who is not only the best freshmen in the country, but quite possibly the best player in the country. And from there the debate ensues about whether that young man should have a place in New York during the Heisman finals.

We hear from Mario Cristobal on the field after the win, advocating for Miami to be a Playoff team, as well as Nick Saban on GameDay saying Miami might be the most dangerous team if they get into the CFP. And with all that, Roman still offers a heart-to-heart with Canes fans to prepare themselves for Miami to get screwed and not get in... but that's okay, because it's who we are as a fan base. Scoop agrees, but lays out that Miami did not get screwed but rather did this to themselves after those losses.

And we close things out with some shoutouts - one to our friend Joe who hooked Toast and Roman up with bourbon advent calendars. And another from Scoop to Joe Echeverria and Rudy Fernandez for showing what it means to lead from the position of a football fan and blaze a path forward for years to come.

Scott Van Pelt came in on the side of Miami this week, arguing that the Canes didn't have a "bad" loss, while teams like Utah haven't really beaten anyone. Roman also wants to know if Miami would rather rematch SMU in an ACC Championship Game or stay out and try for an at-large bid, and everyone falls in on different sides of the argument. And we finally turn our attention to this week's matchup at Pitt, as everyone lays out their Three Keys to the Game - which include watching their running back, tackling better, getting pressure with the front four, and playing a clean game.

This cold weather game is also a big concern for everyone, with Miami's tendency to struggle in games below 40 degrees. We also bounce around some of the bigger topics of the week, including FSU announcing that Mike Norvell would return for another season and what that means for the future of that program. Lane Kiffin's announcement also comes up, and how much this will hurt Ole Miss, but no one is surprised because Lane has done this everywhere he's been. Plus some hilarious Thanksgiving audio from UConn head coach Dan Hurley. And we close out the show with a huge round of Pick 'Ems for rivalry week!

Everyone also lays out their Playoff math - speculating about what teams will jump others, and what it would take for Miami to be in that conversation if they manage to beat Pitt next week. We also jump into the guts of the game, with Carson Beck's efficiency jumping off the page to Roman. Everyone also has lots of love for Malachi Toney and Scoop immediately jokes about where he'll be playing next season. And on the defensive side of the ball, we are wondering what has happened to Rueben Bain the last few weeks because we haven't called his number much at all.

There is also a lot of criticism to go around for the ACC officials after another brutal week of missed calls and mistakes. And we take a look ahead to next week and try to figure out who will land in the ACC Championship Game, and if the ACC will even have a representative in the Playoff if the conference champion comes in with three losses. And with Notre Dame destroying Syracuse today, it's clear they are going to leapfrog some teams, and we're even more likely to see Vanderbilt make a playoff this season than Miami. And Roman closes the show with another epic rant against the corrupt Playoff Committee!

Colin Cowherd also comes in on the other side of the argument, saying Miami deserves to be overlooked for their "bad losses" and everyone lays into him for not paying attention to college football because he's so far off. And the ACC finally decided to have Miami's back this week, but it's too late for them to support us now. Even ACC's own Eric MacLain raised the question about why the ACC is giving Notre Dame a schedule if it doesn't count when you beat them. 

We also go through all the scenarios for Miami to make the ACC Championship game, none of which we can count on to happen. And there are props to go around for Virginia Tech for hiring James Franklin to help rebuild their program as their next head coach. Plus everyone has three keys to the game, including limiting their quarterback, adding more Pringle, trying to quiet the crowd in Blacksburg, and racking up style points. Scoop is also still angry about the lack of creativity in the downfall of the season, because now all of a sudden we have bag plays and dynamic sets when it's too late. 

Scoop asks for the latest on the Lane Kiffin situation, as the Lane train's family made trips to Baton Rouge and Gainesville this week, leading to all sorts of speculation about when he'll leave Ole Miss. And we round it out with a round of Pick 'Ems, as we pick the games Miami needs to have go their way to make the ACC Championship Game.

We even look at the prospect of life beyond Carson Beck, and after this week's performance whether or not you'd want to see a guy like CJ come back to Miami to play. But even with so many good things that the offense did this week, Toast was still frustrated because all the creativity showed up a couple of weeks too late. That spins us into a conversation about teams still vying for a Playoff spot and what this week's wins and losses mean for Miami.

Plus we do a little bit of a deep dive into everyone's Playoff standings headed into the final two weeks of the season, and whether a 3-loss SEC team would jump a 2-loss ACC team if there were already 5 SEC teams in the mix already. There is also some big praise for Girard Pringle after another impressive week of running the ball, which makes us laugh because it looked like he had more freedom to run outside. Which makes us ask if there was a meeting between Dawson, Mirabal and Mario addressing the lack of creativity on offense, because suddenly we're seeing offensive wrinkles we haven't seen all season.

Scoop isn't buying the Playoff hype on Miam's playoff hopes, but Roman has faith that Miami is going to run the table and make it this season. And the sudden burst of offensive creativity makes everyone question whether the team heard the fans' outcries for diversity, and whether they can use that to continue to build momentum. Plus it was nice to see the ACC go after Notre Dame on their timeline and actually have Miami's back.

We also reflect on Pat Narduzzi's comments this week about "losing by 100 to Notre Dame" and how he wouldn't care because it isn't an ACC game... which makes absolutely NO sense. And it's hard for anyone to believe the LSU story regarding Brian Kelly, and how he was never "officially" fired, which is just bonkers. And we all drop our Three Keys to the game, including watching NC State's running back, limiting their quarterback, starting fast and getting more Pringle in the mix early. 

And as we close it out this week we touch on Mike McDanieal trolling Bills fans at the Elbo Room, Antonio Brown's legal trouble as he was arrested in Dubai and extradited to Florida, and a big round of Pick 'Ems as we hit Week 12, including our official picks for the Miami vs NC State game.

Toast remains angry that Miami did not cover the spread, but then again he played a drinking game on the live stream where he took a drink every time they ran outside... so today he's not sober. And as we run through the game stats, it starts to paint a picture about where Miami fell short and where they excelled. There are also some props to Girard Pringle for making the most of his 7 carries today, and what the path to 10 wins looks like and what it means for Miami in 2025.

We also go around the college football landscape and look at what the big losses of the week mean for Miami and the ACC. Scoop also breaks down all the "trick plays" that Miami ran this week, while Toast believes a lot of that was directed at this show (not to be narcissistic). And we look ahead to NC State, VA Tech and Pitt as we glance down the remaining schedule.

No one on the show is a huge fan of Dabo Swinney, but he became our hero this week when he had the beans to stand behind a podium and shout for accountability from the referees. Mario also ruffled a lot of feathers this week after saying SMU has just as much talent as Miami, which could only be true if they are out-developing all their players. All that to spin back to the reality that we actually have a game against Syracuse this week.

Miami is also projected for the TaxSlayer Bowl, which we all hate but feel is perfectly Miami, and at least it's not the Pop Tarts Bowl. And a shout out to Jai Lucas and the Miami Basketball team for getting a win on opening night, with a promising season ahead. Plus everyone drops their keys to a Syracuse win, which include critical down creativity, blowing out a bad team, defensive points, and covering in space. Scoop also wants to know that IF Miami decides to get creative on offense this week, why it would happen now instead of earlier in the season.

We close it out with some hilarious audio of BC coach Bill O'Brien going off on a reporter for asking a lame question, and a big round of Pick 'Ems that we really don't take seriously.

Roman goes to the stats to show exactly how they aren't adapting, and actually regressing in the months of November and December, logging a terrible 5-10 record in November and December the last few years. Scoop also talks about the insiders he talked to after the game saying SMU knew they were running up the middle every time they went there, and they refused to even try anything different. And of course the question about Dawson's play calling - and who is really pulling the strings - gets everyone's ire due to the lack of performance and lack of creativity.

The conversation then turns to the total lack of discipline by this team, with penalties racking up game-by-game and never seeming to improve, largely due to the false starts and holdings by the offensive line. Plus there are so many simple things that continue to fail, like the plays not coming in on time and burning timeouts because of it. There is also a lot of discussion about the future of the program as a whole, how the roster handles the downfall this season, and what that means for the next group of recruits waiting in the wings. We are upset, and frustrated, and just letting it all pour out tonight after a devastating loss.

Toast also brings up a wild stat about Miami ranking dead last in the conference in penalties called against them, especially since Rueben Bain is being held on almost every possession. And we discuss the argument on ESPN about Mario "running up the score" against Stanford, and whether or not that was done to cover the spread. And everyone's Keys to the Game include manageable second downs, effective running, using the screen game against SMU's defense, starting strong in an early game and how this is Carson Beck's game to win.

We also bounce around the big stories of the week, including what a turd Brian Kelly turned out to be as he exits his gig at LSU, and how the Louisiana governor is also now involved in the hiring of the next coach. Plus FSU's AD set the fan base on fire after taking up for Mike Norvell and how the biggest winner in that scenario is the University of Miami. We also touch on the wild NBA arrests this week, and Cam Newton two-piecing the Alabama A&M mascot. And as always we close it out with a big round of Pick 'Ems, and our prediction for the Miami-SMU game.

Mark Fletcher also had a monster game, with three touchdowns and over 100 yards, even though he continued to run the ball between the tackles and eventually wore the Stanford defense down... which means they will likely continue to push that same running game, even though we all want more variety. Ro was also happy with Carson Beck's performance, even though he didn't have a monster game and was victimized by some drops by the wide receivers. And everyone marvels at the talent of Malachi Toney, who might be one of the best players we've ever seen at Miami. Plus it was great to have our friend Roddy Jones on the call.

BUT... we get around to the UGLY first half... and Scoop was at the game, with an up-close look at just how bad it was in the stadium for the first 30 minutes. It starts with the run game, which was the same from last week, you just were able to wear down Stanford's line, a game plan that won't work against better opponents. He is also frustrated at how easy it is to see what Miami is going to run offensively as they line up, and this from fans who just know a little bit of ball.... which means professionals are going to be able to pick them to pieces unless they change something. 

The conversation turns from the offensive struggles and lack of creativity, into how this team's DNA will fail them in the Playoffs if they don't try to adjust. The lack of adjustments in the run game, the complete lack of vertical passing, and the lack of tight end use has everyone questioning the approach as we get into the most meaningful part of the season. Toast is frustrated with the screens (sound familiar?) and even the broadcasters are questioning why we stopped throwing it downfield. Regardless of the win, there are a lot of concerns as we head into a noon kick at SMU next week. And everyone has some mixed projections about the final five games of the season.

Scoop also takes exception with Shannon Dawson's comments about the running game and how "it is what it is", because he wants more from him than that, largely because Miami continues to run between the tackles and nothing else. And the debate rages about how elementary Miami's offense has been and how easy it was for Louisville to blow up their game plan. And the defense's 26 missed tackles didn't help either. But Ro expects a big bounce back game from Carson Beck, marking the mess against Louisville as an outlier in his college career.

We also try to do the playoff math to figure out if it's more beneficial for Miami to be left out of the ACC Championship Game rather than to go and lose and try to fight for a bid with 2 losses. And everyone lays out their keys to the game - which this week includes spreading out the running game, cutting out the false starts, "execution", tightening up the tackling and rebounding with dominance. Plus amazing audio of the week from a young Jets fan who hates his team, the amazing heist at the Louvre in France and a big round of Pick 'Ems that devolves into a conversation about head coaches.

Scoop said the linebackers in coverage would be something to pay attention to going into the game, and sure enough Louisville seized on that with their scheme. Roman starts to pull on the strings that got exposed last night, and the biggest one was that Louisville found a way to out-muscle the Canes and push them around. And we get deep into the FOUR interceptions last night from Carson Beck, as Roman is already into the film study and breaks down which of those were truly on Carson and which were just great plays by Louisville.

And the conversations with other Canes fans - and our families - have been wrapped up on that final drive where Carson threw the game-ending pick, and whether Miami should have run the ball to try and tie the game knowing that Beck was not having a good night. Roman is also concerned that Beck's performance last night might have lost him the team's support, and it will be on him to rally, but the Heisman hopes to bed and find a way to win down the stretch. Plus Scoop is concerned that he may have been right about his apprehensions with the wide receivers - because we have two studs, and not much else.

Without making excuses, we have to call out the HORRIBLE officiating from the ACC officials, specifically the lack of offsides calls on Louisville and the call that took a Miami touchdown off the board on the punt return. And we do not understand how such terrible officiating is allowed to continue without any consequence. Miami also has to win out now to even have a shot at the ACC Championship Game, which is a tall order in college football today. All this and a LOT more to digest as we get into the specifics of this back-breaking loss to Louisville... and it's ugly.

Of course James Franklin's dismissal from Penn State, and the sheer mountain of coaching jobs that are (or about to become) available and how the college football world will be completely turned upside down when the dust settles. There are also some great mid-season awards to hand out as four Canes are early All-Americans and high honors for Malachi Toney, Bryce Fitzgerald and others. And then it's all about Louisville as we break down how the Louisville offense will match up with the rolling Miami defense.

We also take fans to "College Football Court" as we air out our grievances with the media and fans so far this season. And Dana White leans in as the newest Miami NIL booster and says he's officially a Canes fan. Plus everyone offers their keys to a Miami win against Louisville, which include checking Miller Moss, letting the defense eat (especially with the front four), the committee of running backs dominating, limiting mistakes and knowing how to finish Louisville late in the game.

Plus Kenny Dillingham's great speech about accountability in college football (which is really rare in today's game) and the Texas A&M fan who blew a .337 during the Florida game. And we close it up with a big round of Pick 'Ems, including Ole Miss vs Georgia, Georgia Tech at Duke, Tennessee at Alabama and of course everyone's pick and score for Louisville at Miami.

Roman gets into Carson Beck's performance so far this season, saying it's not the Lamborghini the offense was last season, and how it doesn't need to be for Miami to still be great. And Toast wants to know if the 4th quarter against Florida State gave teams a game plan on how to slow down the University of Miami. Penalties need cleaning up as we look at the coming back half of the schedule, which honestly doesn't do us many favors.

Plus some amazing audio of the week with a UNC student roasting the Tarheels on ESPN, Theo Von getting shot down live on TV during College GameDay, and everyone has thoughts on the WILD Mark Sanchez story. And we close it up with a big round of Pick 'Ems, including Ohio State at Illinois, Alabama at Mizzu, Indiana at Oregon and more!

One of the biggest questions from the night was Mario going for it on 4th down late instead of kicking a field goal to stretch the lead, and we all agree that we've wanted Mario to be more aggressive for a while. It was just a weird time for him to try it. Toast also begins the debate about why Miami should be the #1 team in the country after another win against a ranked opponent, as Ohio State and Oregon have both been great but Miami's resume is better. 

More props from everyone for Malachi Toney who continues to amaze the college football world with how good he really is at his age. And Carson Beck's performance on the road in a hostile environment was exceptional after he threw 4 touchdowns and 0 interceptions. And we check in with friend-of-the-show Josh Pray who posted that he thinks Miami is the #1 team in the country and hilariously dumps on FSU.

BUT... with all accolades aside, we need to talk about that awful 4th quarter performance, getting outscored 19-0, and Scoop is concerned that this 4th quarter comeback is becoming a trend against the Canes. We also go into our second bye of the season and gear up for Louisville who just lost to UVA.

We also get into the greatest field storming we've ever seen when FSU lost to Virginia, and whether or not anyone on the show had an issue with the UVA fan who flipped off Thomas Castellanos. Roman also breaks down how Miami can catch FSU being too aggressive trying to stop the run game, even though Toast wants to see them crush the ball down their throat with the run. Audio from Thomas Castellanos saying he thinks FSU's line matches up with Miami's sets everyone off about the disparity in talent between these teams. And no one can make sense of the latest ESPN FPI that has Notre Dame rated higher than Miami.

Everyone weighs in with their Keys to the Game - what it's going to take for Miami to beat FSU at Doak - which include Carson Beck's protection, controlling the line, clean throws from Carson, limiting their explosive plays and not turning the ball over. Then we roll into the Wheel of Topics this week, which includes the viral audio of the FAMU announcer calling the Alabama State plus-sized dancers the "new face of Ozempic," and all the wild audio from Rory McIlroy at the Ryder Cup and how out-of-line the fans were during this event.

And we close it up with a big round of Pick 'Ems, including Texas at Florida, Vanderbilt at Alabama and of course everyone's pick and score for Miami at FSU.

Outstanding grades are handed out to the running back group, a mediocre grade for the use of the tight ends, and surprisingly high marks for the wide receivers who were our biggest question marks coming into the season. And penalties and false starts have dropped the offensive line down from an A to a B 

On the defensive side of the ball we start with grading out the new defense coordinator Dr Hetherman who has been superior, spectacular and all the S grades we can hand out... because A just doesn't seem high enough. The same grade applies to the line who continues to totally wreck games. The linebackers score very high also, as does the new-look secondary, and we are stunned to be able to give an A-plus to Carter Davis who continues to boot huge kicks and not miss.

We also round out the show with a fun bye-week game from Jenners, and this week's non-Miami Pick 'Ems!

Everyone has big praise for Rueben Bain who showed yet again that he is the best defensive player in the country. And the question is quickly posed about whether we'll be able to hang onto Hetherman into next season if this defense continues to dominate the way they are. Also it seemed like everyone was making excuses for just how bad DJ Lagway has been this year and how the Florida fanbase is trying to put that blame on Billy. 

Then we shift over the offense... which, while Fletcher dominated on the ground, seemed to get stuck in the mud for the better part of two quarters. Roman was at the game and comments about just how good the Florida secondary was doing keeping Carson Beck limited to the check-down options. And everyone wants to know why Dawson didn't try to flip the script as the offense got bogged down and struggled, and Roman thinks there is an offensive void that needs to be filled.

The officials also admitted that they made a mistake by blowing the whistle on the Brown run that took a touchdown off the board, and how nothing happened to the refs even though it changed the entire pace of the game. Toast also gauges everyone's confidence level going into the bye week after a game where Miami struggled offensively, especially as they gear up to head to Doke to face the Seminoles in two weeks. And it wouldn't be a show unless we took some time to dance on Clemson's grave after another horrible loss for Dabo.

Hilariously Josh goes in on Miami offensive line, does not let up on Carson Beck, and tries to somehow put the Gators up against Miami's talent. Josh also tries to argue that UF has been way more relevant than Miami over the last 20 years, having won a more recent national title, and everyone realizes that all-time bragging rights are on the table because this will be the last head-to-head for a long time to come. 

Josh also gets introduced to correspondent IP Daley who drops BOMBS on the Gators and leaves Josh a bit speechless. And Josh breaks out his classic Mike Tomlin impression, only to reveal that Tomlin hates his impression so he decided to retire it for a while but thinks it's time to bring it back. And the debate rages about what fanbase is better.

And after Josh jumps off, we get to the big headlines of the week, including Miami climbing to #4 in the Top 25, and how Miami is going to have a solid plan to really shut down the Gators this weekend. We also take a look back at Hylton Stubbs saying Florida was in a better situation last December after he flipped and how, while he made an overall mistake, we understand that after that Syracuse game it made sense in the moment. Everyone also brings their Three Keys to a Miami win over the Gators, ranging from Carson Beck's performance, the offensive line play, and rattling DJ Lagway.

Audio of the week comes to us from Dabo Swinney, who got a little huffy with the media after a couple of terrible losses to start this season, and Mike McDaniel dropping an all-time quote after the Dolphins embarrassing loss to the Patriots. And a huge slate of Week 4 Pick 'Ems!

Rueben Bain showed that he deserves to be in New York as a Heisman finalist, because he continues to be an absolute game wrecker in all scenarios. And Malachi Toney continues to show that he's wise beyond his years after having another monster game. And Toast makes a huge (possible homer-ish) declaration that Miami is already the best team in the country and it's just a matter of a few weeks before the college football world catches up with that idea. He also says that Mario has now gotten Miami to the level of Oregon, as Lanning has held them exactly where they were when they had Mario.

Everyone also starts to look at their season predictions now that Miami is rolling the way they are, and Scoop admits that if he has THIS Miami team all the way they may not lose a game. And will we actually have two guys on the stage in New York with Beck and Bain both owning their individual sides of the ball. Plus we kick around some of the biggest stories and scores from the day, with Georgia coming back to beat Tennessee in overtime, Clemson going down to Georgia Tech in Atlanta, and how our picks shook out headed into Sunday.

Scoop also wants to know what everyone has been most impressed with from Carson Beck through the first two weeks - and answers range from comfort in the offense, attitude and accuracy. And it's almost hard to believe that we have the top PFF-rated wide receiver duo in the country with CJ Daniels and Malachi Toney, plus we're getting Jo Jo and Jordan Lyle back this week to even bolster the offense more. 

Everyone lays out their Three Keys to the Game - which Roman has to remind us to do because we spiral down the UF rabbit hole - and everyone seems to need eyes on Byrum Brown, controlling the tempo and covering in man when it matters most. Plus audio of the week from AP voter Haley Sawyer - who moved UF UP after losing to USF last week - and we have some laughs at the expense of crying Gators bloggers from last week's loss.

Roman also starts bringing a "Woof of the Week" which this week goes to the Miami Dolphins after a horrendous Week 1 performance. And a huge Week 3 of Pick 'Ems with some of the biggest games of the week!

Mario also said this week that if the team improves a little each week that it could be a special season, and how everyone thinks that Notre Dame could have been a blowout if they were just a little better in a few areas. And we still have whining Notre Dame fans crying about that loss. Plus everyone has something to say about the downfall of the mighty Alabama Crimson Tide, as they took an embarrassing L to Florida State. Yes, even against Bethune, everyone has their Three Keys to a Miami win.

Did Mario think that Notre Dame still had a timeout on the 3rd and 4 run play at the end of the game? If so, Roman feels like that's a troubling sign after a few huge coaching missteps last season. Plus the Lane Kiffin audio surfaced this week regarding an incident where a defensive lineman was thrown off the team and is now suing the school, along with audio of Dabo Swinney and Brian Kelly exchanging barbs after last weekend's LSU-Clemson game. And don't miss an ugly-games, who-cares Week 2 round of Pick 'ems!

There are a lot of props (and critiques) to go around, as a lot of Canes fans were frustrated with some of the offensive play calling even though Beck really had a solid night with two touchdowns and ZERO interceptions... even though that was the narrative around Beck, right? And while we all thought we'd miss X going into this season, our boy Malachi Toney was absolutely sensational and a huge factor in this win. 

On Notre Dame's side of the ball, we felt like CJ Carr looked a lot like Emory Williams, in that they kept his game plan a little too simple and it cost the Irish in the end. And why didn't get more Jeremiyah Love all game? Scoop calls it gross negligence on the offensive coordinators for the Irish. And how do we not recognize one of the best catches by a Miami Hurricane we've ever seen by CJ Daniels - hang it in the Louvre! Ro already says it's going to be his Paul Bange "Blow the Roof Off" clip of the week as we all reel about how great that moment was in such a big game. 

And some of the things that were on our radar for improvement were the use of the tight ends, and whether or not our linebackers are going to be able to cover after giving up a couple of big plays. Toast also spotlights that botched snap early in the game, some struggles with tackling, and the offense's unwillingness to run anywhere except up the middle even when it wasn't working. Plus everyone is concerned about the lack of defense against a mobile quarterback, but we're willing to give Hetherman and the defense a pass because we didn't know anything about CJ Carr's running ability.

Toast thinks this game hinges on the Miami secondary, largely because of the money that was spent to rebuild that position group. But Roman feels like while this game would not be a playoff eliminator for Miami, it could be for Notre Dame. And everyone lays out the things that scare us most on the chance we lose this game. Our boy Roddy Jones also brings up an amazing point on his ACC Network podcast this week about the narrative surrounding Carson Beck's interceptions and how it would change dramatically if you look at the interceptions that were not on Beck. 

And it's the official return of everyone's Three Keys to the Game - where Scoop needs us to slow down Jeremiyah Love, Toast has eyes on the secondary, and Roman wants the crowd to blow the roof off the Rock. Plus we touch on Arch Manning's quote of the week and set some expectations for the young man, Bryce Underwood setting a high bar for Michigan fandom and himself, and some audio of the week from Marlins closer Tyler Phillips who dropped an all-time post-game interview.

We officially go through the first HUGE week of games for the official return of Pick 'Ems! The games on the docket are Georgia Tech at Colorado, #1 Texas at #3 Ohio State, Syracuse at #24 Tennessee, #8 Alabama at Florida State, #9 LSU at #4 Clemson, Virginia Tech at #13 South Carolina... and of course #6 Notre Dame at #10 Miami! And we make our score predictions for the Miami game and lay out how we think it will go.

Plus we go through the 2025 Miami Hurricanes schedule and do the win-loss predictions, and everyone is all over the place. Toast has us at 11-1 with a season ending loss to Pitt... both Roman and Jenners have the Canes going 10-2 with Ro predicting losses to Louisville and VA Tech and Jenners calling SMU and VA Tech... and Scoop lands at a disappointing 8-4, with losses to Louisville, SMU, Syracuse and VA Tech.

Josh Pate also had some great perspective on how the Miami secondary's evolution this season could hold the keys to the ACC this year, which spins us into a debate about how that translates to Miami's week 1 matchup against Notre Dame. And as the Auburn claiming National Championships conversation comes about, we wonder if there are any titles out there for Miami to grab. We also touch on Michigan's SOFT penalties for the cheating scandal and the nonsense about expanding the Playoff to a 28 team field.

Believe it or not we have our first week of Pick 'Ems for Week 0 - regardless of how obscure the games are - and it's the FINAL week of Five Questions until the season concludes. Roman rolls them out this week including what you think when you pee, your favorite music video, who'd you swap your parents for, what sense you'd like to improve, what hobbies attract the biggest assholes, and the most memorable question from this year's season of Five Seasons.

The debate also breaks into Carson Beck's confidence going into Week 1 versus what Notre Dame will be rolling out under center against the Canes. Scoop also makes it a point to bring up Shannon Dawson's praise for the receiver room and how confident he is in their ability to run anything he throws at them. Toast also wants to know how the guys would feel if Luke Nickel didn't win the QB3 spot and what that would mean for the quarterback room beyond Carson Beck. 

Plus we touch on the 2025 "impatient index" and how Miami fans have basically been on that list for about 20 years, and the nonsense about other Florida schools getting aggravated that Miami took the award as the best college football program in the state. And of course we dive into the John Mateer Venmo betting scandal that dominated the college football world this week, and what it means going into Week 1 if he has to sit during an investigation. On3's Blue Bloods list really set the Internet on fire this week and of course everyone has an opinion about who really deserves to be on the list.

Audio of the week runs from Tom Brady taking a wonderful shot at Jets fans, how 76ers star Tyrese Maxey doesn't know how to use a can opener, the viral woman who laid out the list of demands she has for a man, and a montage of people with the weirdest laughs cracks up the show. And Roman's Five Questions this week asks us to take a band member from one band and putting them into another, what we'd say to ruin a first date, what we'd be surprised by after waking up from a 25 year coma, the last movie that made us cry, and what we want our last words to be.

Mario enters year #4 with some big expectations for Toast, even though Scoop feels like even if he falls short again this year his job is still secure. And Danny Kanell had some terrible opinions about Miami going into the season - an easy job for an obnoxious FSU guy - but it's so off base that it becomes comical. Plus we somehow get into the kicking competition at camp and how nervous we are after losing an automatic kicker like Andy Boregales.

The Wheel of Topics this week includes another WNBA dildo-throwing incident and what it will take for that to eventually stop... even though we find it hilarious. Plus the cancelling of Howard Stern at SiriusXM has been a long time coming despite an amazing career, President Trump butchering Tua's name during a press conference, the NFL's "ban" on smelling salts, and Louisiana's new law where slow drivers could face jail time. 

And this week's Five Questions includes products designed for clueless consumers, celebrity rebrands that actually worked, things we'd throw on the WNBA floor if we were up to no good, the one thing that would kill our enemy if they were granted immortality, whether or not we'd support a social media ban for young kids, what animal would be the rudest, and what celebrity would look better after plastic surgery.

As we dive into the Week 1 predictions, Roman knows the specific box that Carson Beck needs to check in order for him to be successful all season. Scoop also wants to know if the guys think this is the best offensive line since Mario has been here. We look at the list of coaches on the "hot seat" going into the season, and while it didn't include Mario, Miami is still a factor due to the big losses the last few seasons. Plus a conversation about Carson's efficiency numbers over the last few seasons and how great he was with receivers at UGA who couldn't catch the ball.

Toast runs down the ACC media member rankings by predicted finish, with Miami falling in at #2 behind Clemson who got the most first-place votes by a mile, which we disagree with. Scoop brings up the Deion Sanders story and how forthcoming and humble he's been about a tragic situation after his bladder removal, and how more people could learn from his level of transparency. 

This week's wheel of audio includes Ichiro's shot at the Miami Marlins, the fan who threw a neon green dildo onto the floor during a WNBA game this week, and the Savannah Banana who face-planted live on CNN. Plus Roman's Five Questions includes the best ways to relax, what actor would kill it in a superhero movie, things that have us concerned about younger men, traits we admire most about our partners and the sexiest song ever created.

But we pivot to Miami at ACC Media Days, with great audio from Mark Richt sitting down with Carson, and Carson's comments about why he chose to leave UGA for Miami and how that revolves around the offensive talent. Mesidor also has some high praise for new DC Corey Hetherman who is letting them "play free and play fast." Francis Mauigoa had more great things to say about the "wall of Mirabal" and how hard the offensive line works.

Plus we get an epic report from our old friend IP Daley from ACC Media Days, as he takes down the ACC media and of course the Florida State Seminoles. And one of the more interesting rankings this week came from the Athletic who ranked the Power 4 conference schools by their value, based on revenue and over worth, and Miami came in at #24... but some of these other schools on the list cleared a cool billion.

Stories of the week include the guy who got arrested for credit card fraud at a Chuck E Cheese, while dressed AS Chuck E Cheese! We have to play some of the hilarious audio from South Park's season premier with Donald Trump and Satan, Scoop sounds off on Phil Mickelson's bad take about Scottie Scheffler (and the worst takes we've ever had on the show), and the Browns video guy who fell in the lake during their new helmet reveal.

And Roman's Five Questions this week include what we'd do with a magic potion, things that make us roll our eyes every time we hear them, the difference between confidence and arrogance, our wrestling name and finishing moves, and what animal we'd bite the head off of.

We are also a week out from ACC Media Days in Charlotte and Toast wants to know what position groups the guys are most looking forward to seeing in camp. And Roman asks if we're more concerned about the receivers room or the cornerbacks room. Plus Miami locked up another good receiver through NIL which fired up the haters on spending money again, even though Texas has always been outspending everyone for years. And no one is buying the rumors that Nick Saban is returning to coaching, but if he did it would be hilarious if he went to Cleveland and brough Belichick in to be his DC.

That leads us into some of the amazing audio from Shane Gillis who roasted all of the professional sports world as the host of the ESPYs this year. And Toast thought the coolest thing he saw this week was the Braves tribute to Hank Aaron during the All Star Game, which was an amazing 3D projection right onto the field at Truist Park. And one of the craziest stories of the week surrounds Teddy Bridgewater's suspension from Miami Northwestern for helping his players with meals and transportation, which sparks a large debate about the FHSAA rules and how they are flexing on a public school versus a private school. 

There's also a wild wheel of audio this week - which starts with the biggest viral story of the week as Coldplay caught a cheating CEO on the kiss cam with his HR director, and everyone has some crazy mixed opinions about how this went down. This somehow spins into a debate about whether the Goo Goo Dolls are better than Coldplay, and the worst (and best) bands we've ever seen live... just another one of our random tangents. 

Roman's Five Questions returns, which this week includes things that makes music special, who would take more time off work if both men and women could get pregnant, where you would go if you could travel back in time a year, where you would go with a one-way ticket back in time, who we would haunt if we were ghosts, and what our kryptonite is in life.

We also dive into ESPN's ACC rankings, because we are floored that FSU came in at #5 on their preseason list. And we have to take a look at Joel Klatt's list of the teams most likely to make their first College Football Playoff, and how the defense is going to make all the difference on whether Miami gets there or not. Scoop also discusses his theory that Shannon Dawson's best season last year had nothing to do with him, it was all on Cam Ward, which brings us some discomfort about what he'll roll out this season. 

The Canes got another big flip, as Mario flipped 4-Star CB Brody Jennings from Michigan... but for some Canes fans that isn't enough. The concern remains that hometown kids from South Florida are committing to other schools and Miami continues to miss out on these big local prospects. Congratulations also goes out to Jai Lucas for putting together a potential Top 20 Basketball class and completely rebuilding the roster. 

And with Roman out, Jenners takes to the Wheel of Topics to bring together a round of Five Questions with the topics of the week. That includes Deion Sanders and Bill Belichick being given fake generic names in EA College Football 26, and what fake names we've used or loved in the past. The Kentucky Punter that got a ZERO toughness rating in the game leads us to a question about where we post zero's in our own lives. We also bring in the best audio of the week of an enormous golf fight that went viral this week, followed up with a question about the biggest fight we ever got into. The Florida man who stole a Conch train in Key West leads us to the last thing we stole. And after Scoop's nightmare day, things we do to calm down on terrible days.

Scoop is also still concerned about the wide receivers and hopes that the tight ends step up to the challenge and Lofton elevates to a Restrepo-esq level for this offense. Plus Scoop actually did some show prep and found out a little more about Carson Beck's game while he was at Georgia and what he needs to see from him at Miami. Beck was also one of three Canes to come in with an EA College Football 26 ranking over 90, along with Mauigoa and Bain, and what that really means (if anything) to kids who look at Miami these days.

The Wheel of Topics this week covers the Florida Panthers re-signing most of their roster (and some hilarious Marchand audio from the parade last week), the final New Orleans inmate that's still on the run, and the case of the NY firefighter who got suspended for letting "hot girls" ride on the firetruck. 

And Roman's Five Questions include a song we could hear again for the first time, timeless songs, things people aren't ready to hear, what we would do to help our friends get their memories back, something you shouldn't try that people say you wouldn't know unless you try, and the foods you'd have in your food fight arsenal. Scoop's bonus question is something you love and hate at the same time.

As we get down to Greentree, Scoop catches up with some of the topics of the previous weeks, including potential All-Americans and ceiling-floor guys in the running back room. Plus Scoop wants to know how we would feel if this Canes offense this season looked like Michigan from two years ago, and it draws a very mixed reaction. 

Everyone also wants to spend some time celebrating the Panthers winning their second consecutive Stanley Cup and the amazing audio of Barcov knocking on his neighbor. And the Wheel of Topics takes us from Dereon Coleman's statement about having Cam Ward potential, Giants QBs Tommy Devito and Jaxson Dart's aspirations to go on "Love Island" and a serial farting dart player. 

And Roman's Five Questions returns, including who's the best villain, the stupidest thing we've seen someone pay for, something that instantly brings us back to our childhood, the best thing we've ever tasted, and our Star Wars themed bars.

Then we turn the corner to the biggest story of the week, the NCAA settlement about how players can and will get paid, and how it will affect the Miami Hurricanes. Roman rolls out the suggestion of taking the allocated $20.5 million and allocate it to every sport except for football, because football can raise that kind of money on their own. And as college football continues to evolve we wonder if we'll still enjoy College Football in 10 years like we did in our youth.

David Lake wrote a great piece for 247 this week about Miami's "floor and ceiling" players by position, and Ro agrees with the assertion that Jordan Lyle is the ceiling for the running back room, spinning us into a conversation about potential All-Americans this season. Toast is also feeling like Mario might pull a Top 3 class this year, we share a fond farewell to Aaron Feld who is stepping away from the game for the right reasons, and Roman shares that his daughter has been invited to a very high profile women's volleyball camp at Miami!

The Wheel of Topics this week starts with the 9-year-old Panthers fan who went super viral for loving the fights in Game 3, plus Lee Corso's final ride with the College GameDay headgear in Week 1 of the college football season, why the Steelers would ever sign Aaron Rodgers, and Joey Chestnut's hopeful return to the July 4th hot dog eating contest.

And Roman returns for his first round of Five Questions in a few weeks, which this week includes the worst candies we've ever eaten, things that traumatize us, cartoons from our childhood we'd still watch today, jobs that won't be around in 50 years, inanimate objects we would have conversations and changing a band's name with one letter.

ESPN's Power Index opened with Miami at #9, and a 30% chance to win the ACC - and while Toast feels it's a low number, Scoop thinks it's really high because Miami has never done it. That spins us into a conversation about how much we'll see the offense change this season compared to last year. And everyone has concerns about the wide receiver room except for Novak, and Scoop is buying in on Beck being "all football" this year. 

Novak also talks about the reality that he'll be playing in the Open Championship in Ireland this year, and what it will take for him to make the Masters in 2026. Plus we round it out with Five Questions with Andrew Novak, including who we would turn to for help, the best celebration in sports, stuff we drag our wives to, whether it's harder to get an MLB hit or score an NHL goal, and what people should be fined for in society.

As we get down to Greentree, we start with Athlon Sports citing "anonymous" ACC coaches taking shots at the Miami Hurricanes, who seem to wrap their jealousy of Miami's NIL and recruiting success in comparison to the Yankees and Dodgers. And of course there are more proposed changes to the College Football Playoff which continues to frustrate college football fans across the country. Plus Mario continues to throw praise at Hetherman for his performance thus far on the defensive side of the ball, as we all agree that he's the difference maker for Miami to make the Playoffs.

A quick jaunt through the Wheel of Topics covers the Tush Push ban getting shot down, Tyreek Hill saying Travis Hunter is "gonna be ass", an update on the New Orleans escaped prisoners and the woman who suffered a 7-year sinus infection from a stray fart.

And Jenners runs his own style of Five Questions, all tied to events and stories that happened this week. We cover the worst fight you've ever been in with your wife (after French President Macron got slapped by his wife on TV this week), what food you could competitively eat (after Joey Chesnut broke his own popcorn-eating record), things we need to get rid of (after the US announced they'd stop minting the penny), what team is the hardest to root for (now that Scottie Scheffler has more wins in the last three years than the Carolina Panthers) and finally your favorite and most iconic sports photo (as the Ali-Liston photo turned 60 this week.)

As we get down to Greentree, everyone has thoughts about David Pollack saying he wouldn't spend $2 million on an Offensive Lineman, which Roman feels is a "homer" take because Georgia missed out on Jackson Cantwell. That spins us down the rabbit hole of how to get the most out of an NIL deal and how you can prevent these guys from taking the money and moving on after a year. Plus more talk about how Mario has developed the recruitment game in the NIL era and why he has excelled at bringing in top Offensive lineman and, in turn, top quarterback transfers.

A user on X also asked ChatGTP to predict the 2025 Miami Hurricanes, and while all the outcomes are all positives the possibilities are borderline ridiculous... and all of us would 100% take that season. And an interesting quote from Manny Diaz (having nothing to do with Miami) about how kids today aren't as invested in your school's history as the fans are. Of course we also come around to the NHL Playoffs as we dance on the graves of the Toronto Maple Leafs.

This week's Wheel of Topics starts with the wild New Orleans prison break story, the Department of Homeland Security's proposal for a game show where immigrants can compete to fast track their citizenship, and the DoorDash driver who got so lost he ended up on the tarmac of O'Hare Airport in Chicago. And as always we close out with a round of Five Questions, which this week includes the worst thing we've ever been told by a teacher, a song that takes us back in time to a good moment in our lives, the most recognizable brand name, the worst cities we've ever visited, and a word or phrase we find cringy. 

And we get a surprise visit from Toast's nephew Dylan Dubovik, part of the American Heritage state championship team and a young man who's committed to the U!!

Of course we have to address the story that Mario Crisobal never spoke with Mel Kiper before the draft, after Maio said he heard from everyone but Mel, and ultimately we're not surprised because Kiper has just become a talking head mainstay and not an actual reporter. And after Ro retweeted the list with the lack of Miami accomplishments over the last 11 years, Scoop wants to know if we think it will be easier to win the ACC or the National Championship for Miami. 

The wheel of topics covers Bill Belichick and the very real possibility that he'll never coach a game at UNC, the new gravy-flavored KFC ice cream, and the pro golfer who has convinced himself he can train himself to dunk a basketball. And of course we close it out with a round of Five Questions, which this week includes a car where we know the driver is an asshat, things women do that are a turnoff, the most likely cause of a human extinction, where your happy place is, and how your genetics did you dirty.

When we get down to Greentree, we actually start with Miami Baseball who has been on a wild turnaround after a really slow start to the season. And after yet another weird off-ramp, we get into the projected two-deep depth chart and immediately debate whether Emory is the guy you want at QB2, regardless of his experience. Plus debates about the depth of the running backs, how the receiving core will stack up, and Scoop's fear that the deeper the roster goes the more we look like a seven win team. Even though everybody is impressed by the look of the rebuilt secondary.

We also take a look at some of the portal kickers we brought in this year after the realization that we've been spoiled with the Borregales brothers over the last several years. And everyone tries to figure out how - other than NIL money - Miami can lure in top recruits like Jackson Cantwell. And as we work through the Wheel of Topics we cover the new American Pope, Paul Pierce walking to work after betting on the Celtics, and amazing audio of a woman getting arrested with a raccoon who was smoking meth.

And we round it out with another round of Five Questions, which this week include our Pope names, where we'd love to be a fly on the wall, something we can't believe hasn't been invented yet, our pets annoying habits and places we've been that don't exist anymore.

Xavier Restrepo also gets some props for signing with the Titans after going undrafted, and how that may be a great safety blanket for Cam Ward as he adjusts to the speed of the NFL. Toast is also thrilled that both Arroyo and Martinez went to his Seahawks, and how the Dolphins are going to have to deal with Boregalas kicking field goals on them for years as he goes to the Patriots. Everyone is impressed with Mario's guys representing as well as they did in the Draft.

Plus we take a look at recruiting and the transfer portal as more slot receivers are being added to the room, which Scoop continues to find hilarious, as we need more outside guys on the offense. And the battle continues for the top portal guys as we wait to see if Miami will remain a contender with some of these top guys. We pivot to the NFL as Jordan Travis announced his retirement due to a leg injury, cutting his career wildly short, which we hate for the kid even though he's a Seminole. And while we're on FSU we try to figure out what will happen if Castellanos doesn't work out at quarterback. 

The Wheel of Topics starts with the wild story about Falcons DC Jeff Ulbrich's son, Jax, having been revealed as the one behind the Shedeur Sanders Draft night prank call, and as parents we try to figure out how his dad disciplines him after a $100K fine. Plus how badly Bill Belichick's young girlfriend Jordon is really causing him drama after their trainwreck interview on CBS, Baylen Dupree returns as she tries to explain Tourette's Syndrome on TikTok, and the debate of the week about whether 100 men could defeat one gorilla. 

Plus another wild round of Five Questions, including the day you finally felt like an adult, the male equivalent of being called a "btich", how we'd split lottery winnings with someone who bought us a ticket, the song that instantly puts us in a good mood, and our cheat codes for marriage.

Everyone also takes a moment to lament about the dysfunctional Spring portal window and how bad it is, especially as Arkansas now has plans to sue Madden Iamaleava, and how college players will need to start signing contracts to keep this from happening. Plus Curt Cignetti was throwing Miami's name around this week for a reason we really don't mind, and how Lane Kiffin's shot at Carson Beck's NIL deal was based entirely on rumors. Toast also brings the Miami Hurricanes Mount Rushmore to the show as the trend is making the rounds on social media.

Plus we are loaded up with a WILD Wheel of Topics this week, which starts with the falling stock of Shedeur Sanders on the eve of the NFL Draft. We also have a huge laugh at the double-speaking Australian twins who went super viral this week, and wonder if Paul Heyman will be banned from ESPN after his wild appearance on McAfee's show. And the audio of the week from Shaquille O'Neal who clearly destroyed a toilet after running off the set of Inside the NBA on TNT.

And it wouldn't be a show without a round of Five Questions - which this week include what celebrity we'd switch places with, the most petty reason we stopped talking to someone, where we would teleport and what animal parts we'd add to our bodies.

From there we quickly pivot into the Miami Hurricanes Spring Game as we break down our winners and losers from the day, and how Scoop feels like we already have too many slot receivers. It ranges from Ny Carr hitting the transfer portal, to the possible addition of Trebor Pena from Syracuse, and how that room already seems to be mis-managed by the coaching staff. And as we lose guys in the secondary, which Toast and Roman feel will happen, Scoop finds himself a little more surprised. 

ESPN also made the Nico story, somehow, about Mario Cristibal as both Ryan Clark and Mike Greenberg sounded off on how Mario handled Carson Beck and his Oregon contract which the guys point out makes NO sense. Cam Ward also inked a deal with Under Armour ahead of the NFL Draft, and looks like he might have accidentally revealed on a Fortnite stream that his deal to go #1 to the Titans is done. 

We also have a LOADED Wheel of Audio this week... which starts with Colorado deciding to retire the numbers of Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders which is met with a lot of kickback from not only the OBB's but Denver local news. Scoop really enjoys reliving the Rory win at The Masters, and everyone has a laugh at the amatuer who peed in Rae's Creek at Augusta National. Plus some amazing audio from Mad Dog Chris Russo's interview with golf legend Gary Player, and Braves reporter Wiley Ballard getting a girl's number live on the air in the middle of a game... which, despite the faux outrage, sparks a conversation about how everyone got their wives numbers when they first met.

And of course we close it out with a round of Five Questions - which include fictional characters we'd like to be friends with, what mysteries we'd like to have the answers to, places we've never been but feel nostalgic about, extinct animals we'd like to have brought back to life, and things that should be universally free for everyone.

We also get into the wide receivers, simply because everyone wants to know who will fill Restrepo's shoes both on the field and in the locker room. Plus Mario flipped another defensive stud from Georgia, and we discuss the expectations of Rueben Bain after he was named #4 on PFF's list of returning edge defenders. Credit also goes out, as best as a bunch of Canes can muster, to the Florida Gators who won the National Title this week.

This week's Wheel of Topics starts with Alex Ovechkin breaking Gretzky's all-time NHL scoring record, which spins into a conversation about sports records that will never be broken. And we get a highlight in the ongoing feud between Charles Barkley and the women of San Antonio, we highlight another classic small-town baseball brawl and the wild story about the high school baseball player who peed in an opposing team's water cooler.

And it wouldn't be a show without a round of Five Questions - which this week include worst food we've eaten that we'd feed to an enemy, unconventional weapons to defend ourselves, what sound we'd replace car horns with, unexpected vending machine items and what rules we'd make as kings of our own islands.

Everyone runs down some of the things that Mario still needs to accomplish in his tenure, including winning (or at least playing for) an ACC Championship. And there is a lot of discussion about how Miami's Pro Day was dominated by offensive players, and the tweet that Scoop threw out that set the fan base on fire.

The Wheel of Topics this week starts off with discussion of Torpedo bats, which is all the rage so far this season in MLB, as everyone falls in on different sides of the argument. Plus we lost Val Kilmer this week and all the guys weigh in on their favorite Kilmer roles and moments in movies. We also jump into the crazy changes to the NFL rules, including teams trying to ban the tush push simply because it's become too successful. Plus the downfall of the Oakland A's is hysterical, as is Shaq not knowing where Nikola Jokic is from.

And it wouldn't be a show without a round of Five Questions - which this week include signs of a serial killer, things we probably shouldn't judge, things our pets would roast us for if they could talk, what the weird kid at our schools did to earn his reputation, and what part of the guy code we don't like.

We are also joined by Miami's all-time leading receiver, now headed into the NFL Draft, wide receiver Xavier Restrepo! We talk to X about how he looks at his accomplishments at Miami, how his legacy will live on in Coral Gables, and he talks about how dangerous it would be for him and Cam Ward to get drafted by the same team. X also has a lot of love for Cam and talks about how he thinks he and Cam will adjust to NFL systems after playing under Shannon Dawson's offense. And with a lot of wide receiver talent leaving Miami, X breaks down how the offense was built for guys to be able to replace the players going out. 

Plus we ask him about who he'd like to score on in the NFL, his bucket list golf courses, and his best (and most meaningful) catches while playing at the U. He gets a little blind sided when Toast asks him if he ever got an NIL offer to leave Miami, and he talks about the story that's circulating about his "slow" 40 time at Miami Pro Day. 

We also take a look at the ESPN SP+ rankings - which somehow have the Canes as the #1 offense in the country, but the defense at #49. That spins us into a conversation about the growth of the roster, what transfers and commits moved around this year, and a look at the rankings of all the Canes opponents this season. 

The Wheel of Topics gets heated when Toast has to defend his boy Danny Hurley as the UConn head coach got caught on a hot mic complaining about the officiating after their loss to Florida in the NCAA Tournament. While Scoop has a great distaste for Hurley, Toast argues that Miami would fire Jai Clark in a heartbeat to have him coach the Canes. And everyone reflects on the life of George Foreman, talks about the mystery woman behind Rick Pitino who was offered a porn deal, and whether LeBron James is as big of a baby as Danny Hurley after his back-and-forth with Stephen A Smith.

And we round it out with another hilarious round of Five Questions, including who we would shapeshift into, the worst punishment we ever got from our parents, what celebrity sold their soul to the devil, how we would notify our loved ones if we were kidnapped, and the worst response to the question "do I look fat?"

We are joined by NFL.com's Adam Rank, who turns the table on us immediately by picking our brains about Cam Ward's game compared to some of the best quarterbacks over the last few years. And as a die hard Bears fan, we don't know how well our criticism of Caleb Wililams was received. Adam lays out why he's gotten bigger on Cam Ward, side tracks into a discussion about Cannonball Run, and his take on the big receivers on the board as we close in on the NFL Draft.

And of course we off-road into wrestling as John Cena's name comes up, and Adam loves to talk about how great some guys are as a heel. Steering it back to football, Adam also breaks down where he feels like Cam is a more complete quarterback than Shadeur Sanders.

We also roll out a wild wheel of topics, which go through Tracey Morgan puking his guts out courtside at a Knicks game, hilarious audio of a baseball fight that the play-by-play announcer just doesn't seem to care about, and a shocking take on Scottie Scheffler's Masters menu. And it wouldn't be a show without a round of Five Questions - which include basic skills that most people struggle with, professions we'd never date, our weirdest habits, and what anxiety smells like.

Then we are joined by NFL legend Shawne Merriman, who immediately gets into the origins of his iconic "Lights Out" nickname, and how he knocked out four kids in a game in high school. He also jokes about how he started the Lights Out dance while at Maryland and coach Ralph Friedgen shut it down, and it didn't surface again until the NFL. Shawne also shares some iconic stories about almost decommitting from Maryland to go to Miami, how Ralph Friedgen once played quarterback and how much the rules of pro football have changed since he last played. And how Shawne went from the NFL into MMA is an iconic story about Jay Glaze and Randy Couture, and when he knew he could grow it into a cool new network.

Shawne also gets into the depths of his fandom for MMA and UFC, and how his Lights Out Xtreme Fighting has become a feeder for pro fighting. He also jokes with the guys about WWE, including his all time favorite wrestlers, and how he's had the opportunity to be in the ring and meet some of the legends. And there is no way we part with Shawne before talking to him about his biggest defensive plays in the NFL and what his NIL number would be if he played today.

And we close out with another round of Five Questions - including would your kids be off limits to the media if they were professional ball players (spurring a huge debate about Bronny James and his voyage to the NBA), the ingredients on your ultimate sandwich, a single line from a comedy film everyone knows, the ugliest car ever made, and where we feel completely at home.

We also start jumping into Spring practice and marvel at the fact that guys we covered only a few years ago are already seniors, and just how fast those years go by. And a huge salute to Jimmy Johnson, who retired this week after a 31 year career at Fox and over 34 years as a coach, a true UM legend! Plus a look around the defensive side of the ball has us slightly optimistic as we start to get a pulse from the practice fields. Recruiting has also been going strong, which has always been Mario's strong suit, as we start to see where some of the newest recruits will fall into the program.

The Tennessee Titans have set up their meeting with Cam Ward - which for some reason, Toast does not like - as it looks like he may end up there after all. And the Wheel of Topics takes us from Mike Tomlin's coaching tenure, the John Cena heel turn and what that means for the resurgence of the WWE, everyone has some hot takes on the Travis Hunter vs Shohei Ohtani debate, and our most underrated bands.

Plus we close the show, as always, with a wild round of Five Questions - including two people who would light it up at a press conference, what we'd get as our next tattoos, the sign we'd hold up at the State of the Union, our last "we need to get out of here" moments, the job where you need a high level of tolerance for being yelled at, and your feel-good "don't care about calories" meal.

We go down to Greentree and start with the news that Miami's new head basketball coach will be Duke assistant Jai Lucas, with the news breaking before the school was likely ready to announce it. He is a great recruiter (while wearing the Kentucky and Duke logo) and Miami should be able to bounce back with some talent in the coming seasons, if the gamble pays off. And could a former Duke coach flip the Boozer twins from Duke? 

Plus we do our best CSI investigation into the Carson Beck stolen vehicles (even though they were found a day later) as we talk about how scary it is to have someone in your home when you're sleeping. And Spring Football is HERE starting Monday and we can't believe how fast it came up. Scoop is hyped for the explosive running back tandem of Mark Fletcher and Jordan Lyle, with very high praise for both guys, and just how deep they are in that position group. Even though Carson Beck still isn't throwing, we will likely have eyes on Luke Nickel to see if he can elevate to the back-up position over Emory and Judd.

It's NFL Combine week and we try to figure out if Tennessee is going to go ahead and draft Cam Ward at #1 or they will pass him down to the Browns at #2. That spins us into a debate about who had the worse contract - Deshaun Watson or Daniel Jones. And we have no idea how we ended up debating Bill Clinton's body count, yet here we are. 

A WILD wheel of topics includes the Mary Kate Cornett story that has taken over social media, the couple who was forced to sit next to a dead woman for four hours on a Qatar Airways flight, and how ugly the world's first flying car looks. Plus we close it out as always with a round of 

Five Questions, which includes the best martial arts movie ever made, something we see lots of people do that we'd never do, our most shallow dating requirements, what we'd do with an extra hour a day and the best rock song to play during a protest.

We are joined by a UM alum and media legend Roy Firestone and immediately joke about how much we are dating ourselves by remembering the highlights of Roy's hay day on ESPN! As a former Cane, Roy immediately starts reminiscing about the days of the Orange Bowl in Miami and how he wishes they would have kept the stadium, even sharing his favorite game of all time at the Bowl. As a legendary interviewer we joke with Roy about his favorite first questions and he shares some amazing moments with Shaquille O'Neal who he has amazing stories with from over the years. Roy talks about getting his start in Miami television and crossing paths with Chris Myers who was on the show a few weeks ago! 

And of course Roy shares some of his favorite interviews including Wilt Chamberlain, Charles Barkley, Shannon Sharpe, Mike Tyson, Barry Bonds and so many more! Plus the baseball conversation turns to Shohai Ohtani and whether or not he's the best player to ever play. Roy is also intently dialed in to the Canes, as he was there for the Syracuse loss this year, and has some pretty high praise for Cam Ward as we close in on the NFL Draft. Plus we start a conversation about the biggest sports upsets, and where the Tyson-Douglas fight ranks on that list. 

As we head down to Greentree, we talk about how Mario stuffed Billy Napier in a locker and stole Will Harris as his new DB coach. Plus Miami's kicker posting videos of him nailing 75-yard field goals will likely come back to bite him (and possibly us). And we close out the show as always with a fun round of Five Questions - which include the weirdest thing we've seen at an airport, the most inappropriate thing we overheard at work, the perks of being ugly, and the next thing AI will take over and improve.

We also celebrate 2-10 day in honor of Florida State's horrendous season, which leads us into terrible sports moments like Atlanta blowing a 28-3 lead that sticks around for a long time. And we get a classic story from Scoop about a real estate friend who had a WILD dating experience, and Toast shares a crazy road rage story from 595 in Fort Lauderdale. Plus Matt Patricia goes to Ohio State, Chip Kelly moves back to the NFL and Toast breaks down Pete Carroll going to the Raiders. We also weigh in on the way-too-early Miami predictions made by Canes Warning, including Carson Beck's return to excellence, Xavier Lucas making an impact and Miami making the ACC Championship Game.

This week's guest drops in and it's 7-time NBA Champion ROBERT HORRY who joins the show live from the Spectrum LA studios as he calls the Lakers-Jazz game. Rob talks about his iconic big shots, how he was anointed his nickname "Big Shot Bob" and the kind of relationship he had with Coach Greg Popovich during his Spurs years. We also get Rob's thoughts on the new-look Lakers, the differences between Pop and Phil Jackson, and Toast has to bring up Rob's loss in the Sweet Sixteen to Loyola in 1990. And as a college football podcast we of course have to get Rob's thoughts on DeBoer as an Alabama alum.

Rob also sticks around for Five Questions - which includes how we'd defeat a carbon copy of ourselves, the word we can never spell correctly, what sitcom we could fit into, the best monster in fiction, and the best lesson we learned from a teacher. We even get a surprise drop in from James Worthy!!

Ohio State's interest in Shannon Dawson draws a mixed reaction between the guys... as Toast believes the job will go to Brian Hartline, but Roman feels like he would have gotten the gig already and Dawson may be in play. We also debate how far OH's National Championship will carry them even if they are unable to beat Michigan.

Comedian Ben Palmer joins the show and talks about his epic trolling content - which started with his older brother who was a Canes fan all his life, even though Ben himself grew up a Cleveland Browns fan. We also pick Ben's troll brain about the best way to screw with Florida State fans and he immediately dives into his best trolling methods and it's hilarious! We also talk about how he would sue his friends to get on TV court shows, how he infiltrates neighborhood groups on Facebook and his proudest moment of pretending to be the City of Atlanta on Facebook and basically taking over the city's narrative!

Like always we close it out with Five Questions - including why we never see bicycles in the Zombie apocalypse, our thoughts on Elon Musk, things that should always be free, what's pissing us off right now and the dumbest reasons we've ever been late.

Miami's 2025 schedule dropped this week and everyone has thoughts about things we love - like 8 home games and not leaving Florida until November - along with some things we hate - like the placement of the bye weeks and how hard the final road games will be. We are also obligated to do an unofficial and way-too-early round of wins and losses. Unsurprisingly our predictions are all over the road. 

Like always we close it out with Five Questions - including who we would nominate as a “Real Men of Genius” candidate, what career would you try for if not for what you're doing now, the best advice for being unbothered, a location and department for a new TV show, and the worst stuff we’ve watched recently.

Congrats are due to Scoop's Ohio State for winning the National Championship, and how spending money in the portal can be largely beneficial if it's spent in the right place. That leads us into a debate over portal players versus developed players and how Toast wants more homegrown talent and fewer hired guns. And we won't have to face Al Golden's defense in Week 1 of 2025 as he moves on from Notre Dame.

Roman also sets the line at +3 favorable calls that lean toward the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game. And the CBS way-too-early Top 25 has Miami at #3, and while Toast thinks it's insane, Roman actually likes it. Scoop also believes that Miami's defense is vastly improved and the offense, with Carson Beck, did not take as big a step back as anticipated. All that said, Ro needs to make sure these defensive backs and linebackers ultimately need to be cover guys. Plus Mario getting snubbed from the list of the Top 25 coaches going into the 2025 season is deserved according to Roman.

The audio of the week is the woman who drove the golf cart into the wall at the National Championship game. And Five Questions includes things we'll never do again, what fast food is actually the best quality, colognes we would recommend, the best advertisement line we've ever heard and the most childish things we've bought with our adult money.

The Big Ten released a statement over the weekend supporting Wisconsin keeping Lucas from the transfer portal. Heitner stated that the contract between Lucas and Wisconsin is not binding because the NCAA does not allow its member schools to pay athletes directly. Wisconsin's claim of tampering was received as "absurd" according to Heitner.

We get into the big looming questions about how or if this will affect Xavier's transfer to UM, what action they plan to take against the Big Tem and Wisconsin, and how the loopholes in this case became a national story.

We head on down to Greentree as we dive head first into Corey Hetherman as he takes the reins as the new Miami DC. And while there has been a lot of "coach speak" coming from him so far, the game film backs up his claims as Roman has now done a few Student of the Game breakdowns on Minnesota. Scoop remains a bit hesitant because of how excited everyone was for Guidry in the beginning and needs to see him simplify the approach and make it work for our guys. Toast enjoys the fact that he's a teacher at heart because he wants to see more on-field development from the defense.

Carson Beck had suitors in Georgia (who wanted him to stay) and Alabama, but he chose Miami not just for the NIL money but the talented roster that Mario has built. Scoop talks about why he's excited and what's giving him pause as Miami now has the most experienced big-game quarterback in college football. But without a Spring game, we really don't know what to expect going into the season. And everyone sounds off the new proposed transfer window which would not only make more sense but drum up tons more excitement.

The Wheel of Topics goes around from hilarious audio from the new TLC show about the social media influencer who has tourettes, and the insane story about the coyote being pulled out of the produce cooler of an Aldi in Chicago. And Five Questions covers good movie role models for men, signs that a person was a lonely child, what stocks would skyrocket if aliens landed tomorrow, things that aren't sexy that turn us on, and the biggest risks we ever took.

Jenners offers up some insight as a UGA insider on the caliber of quarterback the Canes are getting in Carson Beck, which was a little mixed in 2024. Offensive line protection is a big part of Carson's success, and Ro feels like Miami did a much better job protecting Cam Ward than Georgia did protecting Carson. There is also some high praise for the UM collective for putting up all the money to get Carson Beck and the secondary locked down.

As Roman goes Student of the Game on Carson, the question arises about whether they go out in the Spring and lock down another guy to learn from him and develop into your next big starter. Toast also goes out and sets the bar again at 10 wins after spending this kind of money on a star quarterback. Ro also tries to break down the key differences between Carson Beck and Cam Ward as we prepare for a different style of quarterback under center. 

And we address arguably the BIGGEST question on the table... will he be totally healthy when the time comes to play in Week 1?? We also try to figure out where we stand with the hiring of a new Defensive Coordinator and what that does to help lift up what Carson will be able to do on the offensive side of the ball. And we wrap it up with our thoughts on the National Championship matchup between Notre Dame and Ohio State.

We also try to make sense of the Portal madness happening around college football with another year of NIL setting the tone. And with more transfers leaving the program, only to over perform at their next stop, we also try to untangle where that fall off comes from.

We have absolutely dropped some bags to rebuild the secondary and we’re all super confident it will show up on the field. While the backend of the defense has been addressed, the QB room has not. We talked about our three-deep room and there’s not a lot of confidence, especially when you realize Al Golden’s defense will be the first thing we face week 1.

And of course we close it out with Five Questions, which include the strangest places we've explored, weird rumors we've heard about ourselves, and what we would do with a Presidential pardon.

The debate continues to rage about next season's record if the Canes are unable to secure a top quarterback in the portal, and how the fanbase will continue to spiral after Miami wasted such a special offense this season. And with the defense coming in at 68th in scoring defense, you can see how much better the Playoff teams were then the Canes. We also discuss what it will take to see Mario in the hot seat in the coming seasons if the team continues to underperform, and he continues to miss on coordinators.

Cam Ward sitting out the second half comes up once again, because the fanbase has bigger expectations to win these Bowl games, while the coaching staff seems to be indifferent on winning the game. And we do our best to make sense of the transfer portal dates as things come down to the wire. The Wheel of Audio takes over with Dillon Gabriel's stoner response to a reporter's question, Shane Beamer versus Brett Bielema, and the hilarious clips of Whitney Cummings roasting CNN while live on CNN.

And of course we close it out with Five Questions, which include reactions to test results, the things our parents do that annoy us, things everyone looks stupid doing, how we'd rob a bank, and what shows ending left you most betrayed.

Roman joins the show and has to answer the question of the fourth quarter... If the Canes are losing late and you need a game-winning drive, do you put Cam Ward back in for the end of the game? Everyone crushed Jenners for putting it out there during the game, but Roman agrees that Cam should have been handed that final drive.

We also take everyone's temperature about Emory Williams as QB1 going into next season, and the guys are all in agreement that after this performance you need to go out and find a portal quarterback. Even though there aren't many left this late in the portal window. So what will the Canes do going into next season at QB1?

Instead of answering that question week-after-week, we will pivot a bit this offseason and offer up some of the most fun we can think of with celebrity hang-out sessions, starting with the legend Corey Feldman the first week of January!!

The debate continues to rage about Lance Guidry's defense and whether or not Emory can succeed with a sub-par defense, and how Miami will fare if both of those elements remain in place for the coming season. And how a good season has set some unrealistic expectations for next season and how a possible 8-4 season should be viewed in the context of year 4 of Mario's era in Coral Gables.

The conversation turns to Isiah Horton hitting the portal and leaving Miami, and how the fanbase seems to be upset as he was likely only the #3 receiver on the team, even though they went out and got CJ Daniels from LSU in the portal. Plus we try to figure out what's wrong with the portal dates, and how they ultimately shouldn't open until after the Playoffs, because education has become so secondary to college athletics in the new NIL and transfer era.

Plus we go around the Wheel of Topics, ranging from the ridiculousness of the Pop Tarts Bowl toaster trophy, Biden commuting Nevin Shapiro's sentence even though he ran away with so many people's money, Cam Ward finishing 4th in the Heisman voting behind winner Travis Hunter, and the following conversation about the status of Travis's relationship after everything that bubbled up with his girl online. And we get some amazing audio of the week from Panthers WR Xavier Legette who ate Raccoon for Thanksgiving and Louisville head coach Pat Kelsey.

Plus we do College Football Playoff picks, and a wild round of Five Questions... which includes evil and twisted children, the subtle things we recognize about being a good person, alternative body fluids, our pee sector, how we feel about the lie of Santa, and uncommon things about our homes.

Also we get into what Miami needs to address in the portal, and obviously any and all additions at defensive back and secondary are an immediate improvement. Plus we're excited to see how Mario's recruiting prowess affects the guys that might otherwise be thinking about the NFL instead of another year in college. And we take a look at the Top NIL collectives in the ACC, and while Clemson we expected, we were shocked to find out who number two was!

Plus a quick look up and down the roster as the portal kicks into high gear starts to spell out who we think we'll have back, and areas we know we'll need to go in a little heavier. Bill Belichick is also now the new head coach at the University of North Carolina, joining the ACC with a lot of unanswered questions, and we think we only see him one time because there is no way he's there for more than a couple of years.

Our favorite stories of the week come from Mar-a-Lago, as Don Jr's ex-fiance gets assigned to become the ambassador to Greece in order to get her out of the country... Kirby Smart calling out SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey on stage after the SEC Championship... and Kenny Smith bringing up Jay-Z on Inside the NBA with Barkley hilariously shuts down. And it's the RETURN of Five Questions!

Toast also expresses his disappointment in the fan base's reaction to the Canes missing the playoff and not celebrating an impressive 10-2 season. Roman though feels like everyone is upset because you were so close, largely because the system is rigged, and they argue heavily about the "strength of schedule" argument. Scoop says while both guys have a point, it's ultimately on the ACC because they don't stand up to the SEC, the Playoff committee or the media.

And will SMU REALLY be left out if Clemson wins this weekend? It's another example of the ACC refusing to speak up on behalf of the conference. Plus the AI OBB's check in with all the scenarios that would have to unfold in order for the Canes to make the College Football Playoff! Also our friend IP Daley checks in to eviscerate the College Playoff committee like only he can!!

Emory Williams also becomes the point of focus as we start to look forward to a future without Cam Ward, and whether or not he gets a fair shake at quarterback or if you're going to try and snipe another top QB1 in the portal ahead of him. We also discuss the Sebastian hitting on a Syracuse reporter story, debate the merits of flag-planting during rivalry week, Jameis Winston praying to be delivered from pick sixes, Rob Manfred's insane pitch for the "Golden At-Bat" rule, and one of our last rounds of Pick 'Ems for Championship Weekend.

Toast immediately wants to know why the defense failed to make any defensive adjustments after Syracuse seemed to make all of the adjustments to overcome a 21-point deficit. Roman also reminds everyone that he has been a beeping smoke detector all season about how bad the defense has been and it was ignored and sure enough burned the house down.

But we don't want this show to be a pile-on after yesterday's debacle, we also want to look at the overall trajectory of the program after finishing with a 10-2 season. That said, Roman goes OFF as he calls for Lance Guidry to be fired because of how bad the defense has been (especially in the secondary) and there were no signs of improvement.

Toast also calls out a few players, because we don't do that on this podcast, but with the regular season over he needs to talk about Jacolby George and the penalty that likely cost Miami the game. And Scoop points out that this was a game we KNEW was going to be a slugfest and what Kyle McCord was going to do, and wasted another Heisman worthy day from Cam Ward who will not win the Heisman because of the offense.

So with a look at the ACC Championship Game between SMU and Clemson, we are now SMU fans so that Clemson can have four losses and be out of the Playoff mix... because that's the only thin veil of hope Miami has of making the Playoffs. And if Miami doesn't get in we at least get to see some of our young talent play in a bowl game, unless of course we face Colorado who already said that all their guys will play in their bowl game. But the comparison of Emory Williams versus Cam Ward means that the offense will have to adjust to his style if he is indeed the guy next season.

We also talk about Gus Malzhon leaving UCF to become the OC at FSU with play calling responsibilities, much to the shock of everyone on the show. And we entertain the biggest question in the air in South Florida... have we missed on another defensive coordinator? And will we be replacing both coordinators this offseason? Plus we close out the show with a huge debate about Miami's place in the College Football Playoff and what it would take for the Canes to have any hope.

Scoop also gets on an early tirade after Cam Ward missed out as a finalist for the Maxwell Award, as Dillon Gabriel of Oregon made the cut ahead of him along with Travis Hunter and Ashton Jeanty... and he hangs it yet again on the defense. There were also obvious snubs in the Biletnikoff and the Lou Groza Awards, as guys like X and Borregales didn't get a look as finalists.

Discussion also breaks out about how the Canes should look at Syracuse OC Jeff Dixon as a replacement if Shannon Dawson decides to move on, largely because of his formations and personnel groupings on offense. And as we look at Syracuse QB Kyle McCord, Roman has high praise for his play, while Toast argues that his time around Ohio State fans has shown him that McCord will crumble under pressure so Miami needs to bring it.

As we were taping the show, the new College Football Playoff rankings dropped... with Miami up to #6, SMU up to #9 and Clemson at #12... which means there is a shot that the ACC might be able to pull THREE teams in this new system, which is a wild reality. And this week's Keys to the Game include defensive pressure up front with the front four, running the ball between the guards, Cam Ward spreading the ball around, and involving X in his final week in a Canes uniform.

We also jump into some of the craziest college football stories of the week - including North Carolina moving on from Mack Brown, the INSANE end of the Arizona State-BYU game, and another epic Bama meltdown from our man Legend on the Paul Finebaum show. And a wild round of Pick 'Ems round out the week.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Scoop reminded us again that, hey, everything's fine if you just weather the first half - or in today's contest, the first quarter. And now it's just one more game, where you have to beat Syracuse on the road, to face off against SMU who punched their ticket to the ACC Championship Game this weekend.

And in the case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde... should we now be concerned that the offense didn't look particularly crisp today? And we are well aware that we say this after Cam posted 280 yards and two touchdowns. Roman also gives Mario credit for pounding the run game in the fourth quarter as everyone was in awe of Jordan Lyle.

We also take a look around some of the other chaos from this weekend, including losses by Indiana, Colorado, Ole Miss and others, which continues to spin the College Football Playoff Committee in circles as we wait to see how this shakes out. Miami also showed up well on defense against Wake Forest, because one of their two scores was a kick return, so getting off the field with only one score was a big win for them today.

The wide receiver room also looks like it will have a lot of turnover looking ahead to next season, and we take a look at some of the young talent that has shown up this year and will likely be a glimpse of what's next for Miami. We also try to figure out where Miami will land in the rankings with all the losses around college football this weekend. And we debate the "SEC strength of schedule" after these SEC teams continue to lose games and still land in the rankings.

We open on Greentree as we try to figure out why Guidry has an "everything is fine" approach after a week where the defense greatly underperformed. Scoop is afraid that the poor play of the defense could cost Cam Ward a Heisman. And Roman is frustrated that after one bad game, Cam was left off Kirk Herbstreit's list entirely.

Roddy Jones joins the show to debate the merits of the Heisman and how annoying the race has been this year, and how funny it is that he always seems to join the show after Georgia Tech burns Miami. Roddy was also one of the only guys in the preseason to say Florida State may finish last in the conference while being ranked preseason #10, and sure enough that may end up being the case in a couple of weeks.

Roddy also breaks down the adversity of Miami's season and how the pain of mistakes and losses can set the tone for a championship mentality. Roman also picks Roddy's brain about Wake Forest, and how effectively teams have run the ball against them, and Roddy says this is the week that Miami can and should lean on their run game. And a deeper dive into Wake's offensive strategy gets Toast a little uneasy after seeing the defense look so lost the last few weeks.

Plus if Miami were to lose the ACC Championship Game to SMU, we try to figure out a road where Miami still goes to the playoff, which means the ACC doing more to tout their tough coaches and equally difficult scheduling. Keys to the Game this week include a dominating win, protecting Cam Ward, defensive improvement at the linebacker spot, running the ball and playing like it's Miami against the world!

We go down to Greentree, which is still littered with the debris of the loss to Georgia Tech, as the national media has made a clear turn against Miami's coaching staff. Roman remains optimistic even though the defense could not hold up against a GT quarterback who could not throw the football. Scoop reiterates his point that the Guidry defense reminds him of watching the Gattis offense, largely because of how visibly confused the defense seems to be. 

This week's Underdog picks are non-Miami games with the bye week. We're also pleasantly surprised to see Miami offensive linemen receive some accolades this week, especially after Pitt lost to Virginia and reset Miami's fate for the Playoff. And IP Daley shows up to absolutely level the Canes in the wake of the loss and it's nothing short of brutal!! And since IP brought it we're reminded to try and enjoy the last few games of Cam Ward whether he wins the Heisman or not.

As we look at the College Football Playoff we debate whether a two-loss ACC team would make it in, and the consensus is that probably won't happen. Which means JD Pickell's take that Miami needed a loss to get focused needs to come to fruition, and Roman believes it. 

Plus we go around the Wheel of Audio, which includes Pat McAfee baiting LSU fans to curse on live TV with no repercussions, the Utah AD calling out the officiating by accusing the refs of stealing a game from them, the new Saints coach clogging his toilet the first day and the in-flight audio of the Auburn basketball team fight that grounded their team plane. And we work through a huge week of Pick 'ems, with showdowns all across the Top 25.

And you can tell from the start that Scoop was the only person who wasn't on the watch-along because he was shockingly optimistic, saying everything is still right in front of you. Toast's opening rant is also directed largely at Canes fans who are folding up stakes on the season after only losing ONE game so far this year. 

Plus Roman GOES OFF because of just how bad the defense was against Georgia Tech, fresh off one of the ugliest Student of the Game breakdowns he's ever done. And Scoop says that watching this year's defense is like watching the Josh Gattis offense of the past. Toast's contention remains that this loss falls on the offense way more than the defense, because they put up half of their average against Georgia Tech.

The discussion moves to Cam Ward, who Roman says was bad against GT on 3rd and 4th money downs. And how Miami left 9 potential points on the field by opting to go for it on 4th down instead of taking field goals, especially in the second quarter. Ro also thinks that Cam needs to evolve quickly when it comes to holding onto the ball because it cost him a game today and could cost him a starting job in the NFL.

We also try to figure out what this does to Miam's playoff standing, especially if Pitt finds a way to win out and we don't make the ACC Championship game. And if we do make the ACC title game, and lose, how does Miami still make the playoff? The targeting conversation also comes up after the bogus call on Moten, as Scoop says someone asked him why they don't eliminate targeting in the box, which he thought was a great solution. Plus a quick look around college football and a glance at FSU and Florida's terrible recruiting classes.

Scoop is also concerned that the Georgia Tech offense could give Miami fits this weekend, as it's a very similar look to Virginia Tech, and Roman brings that point home by pointing out how on-the-nose Vegas has been with their spreads and this one has a high total. The Georgia Tech home crowd might not be an issue because Atlanta has not been hot for the Jackets this season, while Roman just needs the Canes to keep Tech under 30 points.

We also look deep into the defensive strategy of this team, because with an offense that's historically good the defense can bend a lot more and give up points... even though we're #1 in total defense in the ACC. Toast also wants to know why Miami has dominated the second half so predominantly but Ro is sick of praising halftime adjustments every single week. Keys to the Game include discipline, protecting Cam instead of isolating him, out-scheming the Jackets, defensive line domination and making sure we don't lose on the road.

The Wheel of Football this week covers Dabo Swinney being unable to vote on Election Day, which takes us into a conversation about whether or not Clemson would ever move on from him, Shedeur Sanders laughing off class registration, Jason Kelce smashing a kid's phone for talking trash and the WILD headline of the week coming out of Ukraine. And the week 11 Pick 'Ems are once again all over the road.

Scoop recaps his experience at the game as the Canes mounted a massive second half comeback, and he offers props from the top to Xavier Restrepo for breaking the Miami Hurricanes record for all-time receiving yards and receptions on a massive touchdown. Scoop also believes that Cam Ward has the quickest release since Dan Marino, leading to our latest trend #CamMarino!

Toast also has props for the team's second half response, as both the offense and defense came out as completely different units in the second half. And the debate breaks out about why Cam Ward isn't the front runner for the Heisman right now, as Travis Hunter continues to play at an elite level on both sides of the ball at Colorado.

We also take a look at how Miami's front fared against the vaulted Duke defense, who only got 6 tackles for loss in this game. Plus it was another game where the defense gave up even more big plays, something that we've been hoping they'd fix for weeks now, as they continue to surface at inopportune times in all these games. And there's a lot of debate about the overall state of the defense, including the lack of pressure up front that we are not getting.

And it wouldn't be a recap show if we didn't dance on the grave of Florida State after they got demolished again this week, and put it into perspective about just how bad they are this year and it's WILD. We also wonder if Miami will move up to #4 after Penn State got exposed in their loss to Ohio State. Toast also tries to argue that if the Canes go to the ACC Championship game undefeated then lose, there's a chance Miami falls out of the Playoff entirely.

We go through some of the other games from around college football, break down some of the better plays of the day and try to figure out if Restrepo will be an All-American when it's all said and done this year. Plus it was really nice to see the entire team turn out yesterday for Mark Fletcher's dad's funeral on a day before the game.

And before we get too far down the Duke rabbit hole this week, we do a post mortem on the Florida State Seminoles with some of the wildest stats of the week on FSU's decline. We also touch on the rumors that Shannon Dawson might be interested in the head coaching job at Rice, and Toast says if Miami is really that good year-over-year then you should expect to replace coordinators on both sides of the ball every few years. Plus the Duke defense looks to be one of the better defenses we've faced this year, even though Ro's not buying in all the way, but it will make for a formidable challenge for the Miami offense.

Toast wants to know if this is a Butch 2.0 FIU game with Manny Diaz coming back to town, and Scoop says the difference is that Duke's offense is garbage, which doesn't sway Toast after seeing UM struggle a bit against FSU. Roman believes that Cam Ward is the difference maker in this one, and the Canes are going to run all over Duke's defense who is third worst in the conference against the run this season. And our Keys to the Game this week include running the ball down their throat, patience from Cam Ward, the accuracy of the kicking game, using the tight ends and playing a clean game. 

We also get a wild FSU recap from I.P. Daley, who levels the Noles in classic fashion. And the Wheel of Football this week actually starts in the NBA as we try to figure out where the Dwyane Wade statue went so wrong. Plus Lane Kiffin calls out the SEC for favoring LSU with night games, the WILD call of the Commanders Hail Mary from the radio booth, and Anthony Richardson's excuse for taking himself out of a game. And Trevon Diggs telling a reporter to talk about "Deez Nuts" and the Iowa Hawkeyes with the jersey swap of the week. We close it out with another wild week of Pick 'Ems!

We open what is a celebratory show with condolences to the Fletcher family after the passing of Mark's father, Big Mark, and what an emotional and special game that was for Mark. Scoop also has high grades for this Miami team, despite the lack of fanfare from the fan base, by saying this was Miami running a state rival out of the building, with the exception of just a few plays.

This was also a game where the running game showed up big, and the first week where Miami's run game out gained the passing game. It was a big week for RB1 and the Miami ground game, and there were also some big moments from Xavier Restrepo as he closes in on Miami history.

The defense also gets some love for shutting down the big plays, with the exception of that one wild QB scramble that led to FSU's first touchdown. And a question from Ro about how good FSU would be if Cam Ward was their quarterback where they would be, sparks some debate about what that really changes for FSU. And a look at FSU's numbers this year compared to last year really tells the tale of their downfall this year.

The debate also rages about whether Miami climbs at all in the Polls or gets stuck again at #6 as we take a look at the carnage that will happen across the ACC the next few weeks. And we try to figure out where the ESPN announcers were coming from when they said Miami was "running up the score" on that final touchdown.

And somehow as we start to break down hate week, it's somehow even worse for the Noles then we thought, as Miami has the second best offense in the nation while FSU is coming in with the second WORST. Roman broke it all down on a special mid-week edition of Student of the Game as he looked at the film between FSU and Duke, our next two opponents, and the film really shows what a mess that team is right now. Scoop is also floored that this is one of the first years he can remember where this game meant nothing for the Canes.

We dive deep into the curious case of Miami being undefeated but for some reason still stuck at #6, and Ro feels like it's due to the fact that we aren't an SEC team and our defense has been suspect. There is also a shocking amount of disrespect for the Canes as compared to other teams with similar wins and it's more proof that the Miami hate is back. That's also supported by the ESPN win probabilities which have all gone up significantly. 

Keys to the Game include remembering who you are, not falling for your own plays against you, and compensating for our "missing" defense. And the AI OBBs show up and absolutely stun the show with a shocking round of overs and unders for the FSU game.

The Wheel of Football lands on Quinn Ewers who was the victim of a 247 Instagram hack saying he was going to sit out the rest of the season to prepare for the NFL Draft, which launches us into a conversation about whether or not that will actually happen down the line. Texas got banged $250K for littering the field and setting a standard by picking up the flag that caused the chaos. And everyone has opinions on the Illinois uniforms from this past weekend and the new caps players are wearing after concussions. Plus we close out the show with another wild round of Pick 'Ems with some great games in Week 9!

And of course the conversation quickly turns to the defense who was a bit of a mess today in a slugfest with Louisville, as Ro does his best Student of the Game analysis and breaks down where the matchups failed. Toast is fearful that this team needs to have the ball last in order to win, and Scoop and Ro talk him down by saying that however bad Miami's defense was bad this week, Louisville's was worse.

Now there was a LOT of upside on the offense, as Cam was electric again with some wild plays when they mattered most. And it's more than great play by Cam, the team's success now seems to be anchored to his performance every single week. And once again fans are holding a call against Miami after Cam's "fumble" got called back which goes to show that the college football world is once again turning on Miami.

And one thing surfaced this week that we haven't had to talk about all season... the special teams, which were a total disaster on the road in Louisville. But hey we are 7-0 BABY and we have HATE WEEK coming up against a dreadful 1-6 FSU. Let's GO!!

We also lay out this week's Underdog Fantasy higher/lower picks after a down week last week. And Toast has questions for the crew about how important it is to see Cam Ward have a clean game, and whether this is the game that Miami leans on the running game. Plus everyone's keys to the game range from defensive schemes and improvements, establishing the run on the road, Cam Ward's efficiency and the return of Jalen Rivers to the offensive line.

This week's Wheel of Football Audio takes us to Athens as Kirby Smart has to apologize to Mississippi State QB Michael Van Buren for shoving him during this weekend's game, Jerry Jones threatening Dallas radio hosts for calling him out on his decision making, Kenny Dillingham's wild post-game scrum on the field after Arizona State beat Utah, and a round of Sound Effects with Tony Romo. And we close it out with another wild week of Pick 'Ems!

Toast's trip to the Savannah Bananas game spawns one of the best dive-bar stories from South Florida we've ever heard! But we quickly pivot back to college football because we had a lot of overtime games and games coming down to the wire this week. Scoop wants to know what stadium where we'd like to experience a game - Toast and Roman pick the bayou for an LSU game on a Saturday night, Scoop goes with Neilan Stadium for Tennessee because of how electric the atmosphere was last night. 

We take a quick look at the Canes opponents so far this season and how they have fared after the Miami game, and Clemson appears to be renewed and a clear second to the Canes in the ACC. And we go around some of the wild games this week, review our picks (which were all over the place after yesterday) and take a look at Alabama, who barely hung on again for a close win over South Carolina. And does the Oregon-Ohio State game end the same way if Cam Ward is under center? The debate also breaks out about whose head is bigger - Chip Kelly or Mark Mangino. 

Xavier Restrepo was also on ESPN this week talking about how the Canes had a players-only team meeting this week, even though they were on a bye. And we all agree that this is a great thing to happen when the team is winning, because with today's parity we see top teams lose big games even when they're favored.

Scoop also plays devil's advocate and asks us how good the Canes actually are, after struggling against their two sub-par ACC opponents thus far this season. Roman argues that we have a championship caliber offense but a very average defense, while Toast contends that it all comes down to Miami having the best quarterback in the country. And like most weeks there is a lot of love to go around for the accomplishments of Xavier Restrepo as he closes in on UM receiving records.

We do our higher-lower picks for the week courtesy of Underdog Fantasy, with picks in the Oklahoma-Texas game and the Ohio State and Oregon game. We also do a bye week edition of midseason grades - with great grades for the quarterback, tight ends and wide receivers - respectable grades for the running backs (even though they are the 16th best rushing team in the country), offensive line, defensive line and corners - and room-for-improvement grades for the linebackers and safeties.

And the wheel of football spins wildly for the aftermath of the Vandy-Bama game, including Diego Pavia cursing on live TV, the goal posts marching down Broadway in Nashville, and an epic rant by a Finebaum caller for the ages. Plus some wild Pick Ems to round out the week, and no recap show.

While everyone is thrilled that they got this comeback win, Roman feels like we're limping into the bye week at 6-0. Of course the debate rages about the targeting penalty that went the Canes way late in the game, and how that could have ended the game, but the guys feel like it probably was targeting and we got away with one. And Cam Ward's decisions were all over the place in this game, leaving us a bit concerned with his play in games that are this close.

The defense also gave up some huge plays which really brought back the narrative of the questionable secondary, who has been so good all year but looked very unprepared against Cal. And while everyone stops to reflect on the joy of a 6-0 start, it was clear that Cal's approach was to goad the Miami players into conflict and reactionary plays and for the most part it worked. 

On the big positive side, Restrepo and Cam both had huge games (despite huge mistakes by Cam), and Scoop wants to know if Cam's lackadaisical confidence bothers the guys as much as it picks at him. And Roman is gearing up for what looks to be an epic Student of the Game as he breaks down this game film. And we bounce around one of the wildest weeks of College Football we can remember seeing.

We go in deep on our Cal preview, with a look at their quarterback (who frankly isn't in Cam's stratosphere) and arguably the nicest fanbase in college football. Cal's offense is rated the second worst in the ACC for scoring offense and how that should allow Miami to control the score. And Rueben Bain is back, plus some amazing audio of Cam Ward being asked about the Cal corners. And IP Daily checks in to decimate the Golden Bears going into Week 6!

All three guys offer up their keys to the game, including keeping control of the box, what Cal tries to steal from the VA Tech game, cleaning up penalties, and keeping tabs on the big explosive plays. 

This week's wild wheel of topics runs the gamut from an unusual amount of celebrity deaths the last few weeks, Chip Kelly saying bathroom breaks are the better part of being an OC versus a head coach, Tom Brady laying the smack down on Baker Mayfield, and the perilous situation of Tyreek Hill and the Miami Dolphins. And Scoop believes it's a mistake for Nebraska to start serving alcohol at college events because it harkens back to a tradition that is dying off in college football. 

And we have some fun with the biggest games of the week in this week's wild round of Pick Ems!

Obviously, there is a lot to unpack here…we start with the final play. Was it a TD or not? We all agreed it was not and Ro made a great point. If you think that was a TD, you are a pure Miami hater. All three of us were stunned that the ACC overruled the call on the field. Can’t remember the last time the refs helped us in a game.

Cam Ward and his Heisman CAMpaign is still progressing, tho this was his worst start as a Cane. He was responsible for 5 touchdowns, but also 3 turnovers. We will live with Cam and die with Cam…as he goes, so will this season.

Penalties are still an issue as we bagged another 6. The rushing attack is not what we’d like to see as we approach the midway point in the season.

All that said…we lose this game going away last handful of seasons. The battle back they showed us means something.

IP Daily dropped a pregame report for the Va Tech game and was somehow able to make it NSFW, so fair warning there. Earmuffs for the kiddies.

We also got into the UNLV news with their QB1 bailing on them due to NIL issues. Listen, this is big boy stuff here. If you and your agent do not get stuff in writing, you are an idiot. Have competent representation. This is on him and his advisors, not on UNLV.

The first half of this game was a struggle for the Canes with some unforced errors, but still hit the half up 7. Then they came out in the second half and ran the Bulls out of the building. Mario challenged the defense to try and pitch a shutout in the second half and the Canes came out with a whole new attitude and put the game to rest. 

And with another amazing performance by Cam Ward, Ro starts referring to the offense as a "hive mind" because they all know where they need to be and what's going to happen. We also take a look at the talent of the receiving core as we now have three receivers on the watch list for the Biletnikoff Award and they all showed out against USF.

There are so many props to go around this week, but the play of the offensive line really stood out to everyone, as Cam Ward went practically untouched in this game. And the talent of this Canes team showed you that when you play a scheme like USF, it can only last so long before this Miami team just punches you in the mouth and shuts it down. And how about that run from Lyle!?! There's almost too much good stuff to talk about this week.

Props also go to the play calling of Shannon Dawson this week, who is obviously operating without any meddling or oversight because he's been having fun with his schemes. And when you have a QB like Cam Ward, it's easy to get creative and look great. We also take a look at our Underdog Fantasy Higher or Lower picks, and break down some of the wild stories from around College Football yesterday. Now it's on to Virginia Tech on Friday night at the Rock!

We also welcome a new partner to the show as Underdog Fantasy presents our UM Higher or Lower segment! We also get another hilarious check-in from Canes legend I.P. Daily who lays the lumber on the Gators yet again. And all three guys bring their keys to the game, including avoiding the space game, knowing when to kneel, making the Bulls one dimensional, controlling time of possession and getting off the field on 3rd down. 

And the Wheel of College Football audio is loaded this week - with moments from Colorado, Shedeur Sanders refusing to shake a QB's hand, the worst kick ever on College GameDay, Marshall's head coach bribing Ohio State players with all-you-can-eat biscuits and a delusional and defeated moment with Gators head coach Billy Napier. And of course our weekly Pick 'ems are all over the road as the Top 25 matchups start to pick up!

It was a record setting day for Miami as they ran up 750 total yards, the first time they've done that in 20 years. Cam Ward was exceptional again yesterday, as was the line because he had all the time in the world to do what he wanted to do. And everyone was happy to see this team stay in the moment and not look past a team like Ball State with South Florida on the horizon. Plus Roman has high praise for Mario this week, as he allowed his offensive coordinator to work when things were slow. 

Now that we're through our first three games we start to get into the teeth of the schedule, and we're curious to see if that high level of performance from Cam can continue as the defenses toughen up. And it wouldn't be a recap show if we didn't dance on the graves of the Gators and Seminoles who both took a huge L this week. 

And we close out the fun with the results of our over/under picks for the week! Plus we start to look ahead to South Florida next week.

Shannon Dawson also said UM has been pretty "basic" on offense, even though we're already seeing more from the tight end group than we have in previous seasons. Plus the AI OBB's drop a hot new Cam Ward single and a Letterman-style Top 5 things that will happen before Miami loses to Ball State at home. And all the guys have their three keys to the game, which are a little more in depth than the ones against FAMU.

IP Daily returns to once again lay waste to the Seminoles, Notre Dame and Auburn! And IP's comments launch us into a conversation about Linkin Park's new lead singer and how the FSU water guns that made a return appearance on social media this week. And the biggest South Florida story is still Tyreek Hill and how both Cheetah and the Miami cops were both on the wrong side of this situation. There are so many juicy Colorado stories that we have to dive into all of the rumors and stories swirling around Deion and Shaduer as they circle the tank

We dig into our third week of Pick 'ems after the fallout from a truly wild Week 2 that we didn't see coming. And all the guys pick their over-under props for the Canes, which we'll go over on Sunday's recap shooooow!

Cam Ward continued to shine as the #CAMpaign24 efforts got three passing TDs and one on the ground as he continued to look like the exceptional player he was billed as in the preseason. And both Toast and Ro are thrilled to see the involvement of the tight ends in the offensive game plan as they got into the game early. And another huge week for Restrepo shows that we are firing on all cylinders right now.

Even though this was a dominant win, there were still some things that needed cleaning up - even fans commenting that things were sloppy - but we wonder if that's fair because the bar has been raised so high. Plus some penalties jumped up this week that we didn't see in Week 1, including procedural penalties that we didn't see in the Swamp.

And with Michigan and Notre Dame both going down this weekend, we think the Canes could move into the Top 10 - which is great, but do NOT let that allow the team to take their foot off the gas. Plus Cal and Syracuse have both emerged early as tougher opponents than maybe UM fans had on their radar.

It was nice to see the offensive love spread out across multiple receivers, backs and tight ends, but we still want to see some big explosive plays. And we round out a fun recap show by reviewing our Player Over/Under props for this week's game. And we try to digest some of the big games and upsets from around College Football.

Plus as the ACC's "top" teams struggled out of the gate, and FSU dropping BOTH of their first two games, the guys try to figure out who the Canes competition will be out of the conference. Scoop thinks Louisville is in that conversation, and so is Georgia Tech. And as we go down to Greentree, Scoop continues to be impressed by the UF game tape of Cam Ward, as there were so many small things he missed during the course of the game.

Roman addresses some online haters as regards to our early push for Cam Ward to go to New York, and everyone dives into the mystery of Mike Norvell and FSU as they have looked so rough as the season has started. And we play some amazing audio of Seminoles fans melting down as they watched their team lose to Boston College.

IP Daily drops by to LEVEL the Gators and the Seminoles in true IP epic fashion. The Canes checked in with three ACC players of the week in Cam Ward, Zach Carpenter and Jaden Harris. Everyone also brings their Three Keys to the table - which are all largely "stay healthy". And we round out the show with some amazing College Football audio of the week - with Brian Kelly, Nick Saban and Mike Gundy all checking in during Week 1.

We dig into our third week of Pick 'ems... and honestly it's a slow week of games. But Week 2 always is - so we do our best to pick some winners!

We go through the highlights of Cam Ward's amazing debut for Miami, including the gunslinger pick he threw, and how great he was after that moment. Plus how about the tight end involvement!? There were so many great moments to look at with the offensive dominance, which looked so much different than last year. And everyone has some thoughts on the statement moments of the game, from the opening drive of the second half to the elite play of the secondary.

Even more praise comes from everyone about the play of the defensive, as we look at the key players from the line to the linebackers, all who made huge plays when it mattered most. It was just an all around impressive performance, especially when you look at the lack of penalties and the elimination of the crowd.

We also take a look at our over/unders for players and stats for this game, as we had plenty of hits and misses. And we start to look ahead to the early part of the schedule and try to predict where we will start to see backups and substitutes. And Cam Ward had a LOT to say after the win when he met with the media. With the guys having this much fun during a recap show, Scoop didn't want the show to end as we dove into some of the other stories from the first week. Overall EVERYONE is now drinking the Kool Aid and we're ready to roll into this season!

The season kicks off Saturday in the Swamp, and we immediately head down to Greentree to preview the Week 1 matchup with Florida. And somehow the ESPN computers have us at 57% to lose! So Toast wants to know what scares us about the game, and the guys believe it's genuinely a mix of the venue and the expectations. Toast, however, feels the coaching staff needs to control this game with a strong game plane instead of being a liability. 

And everyone has their Three Keys to the Game. Roman's three keys are to disguise the defense on the Gators, involvement from the tight ends early, and limiting the chaos plays by Florida. Toast's Three Keys are consistent pressure on the QBs, letting Cam Ward cook, and not losing the turnover battle on the road. Scoop's Three Keys are composure, penetration from the front four on defense, and performance from the stable of running backs.

Plus the AI OBB's return to the show to give their thoughts on the Gators and offer some AI-generated picks for the game - and all three of the AI's pick the Canes to win on the road! Which amps up everyone's anxiety even more.

Deion Sanders leads off the Wheel of College Football Topics for the week after he banned a Denver Post reporter from asking questions at Colorado press events. 

We dig into our second week of Pick 'ems with huge games for UGA and Clemson, BC and FSU, and the biggest games of the week. And everyone offers up their official pick for the UM/UF game with score predictions and storylines.

We also get into the unfortunate tale of former 5-star quarterback Malachi Nelson, who transferred from USC to Boise State and LOST the starting QB job, and Tua going scorched Earth on Brinan Flores and how we were actually impressed by the way Flores responded.

Plus we dive into some of the craziest audio of the week - with the Air Traffic Control audio of a co-pilot who jumped out of a plane and just how insane the reality of the story is. And some HILARIOUS audio from Australia where an angry man is torturing his ex-girlfriend by giving out her number and soliciting Chewbacca impressions.

And Pick 'ems are BACK for Week 0 - with one good game in Ireland and three pretty random ones. But hey, picks are back! And it's our FINAL ROUND of Five Questions until the season's over, and this week they include what's on TV in hell, things an alien can do to get laid, when we stopped caring what people think about us, unwritten rules for men, and what our younger selves would think of us today.

There has also been conversation among the OBB Discord chat that Scoop should be suspended for the USF game in Week 4, but Scoop explains that Miami takes precedence over USF so he refuses to allow it. Plus we get Andrew's thoughts on fan reactions if we lose in Week 1, who his breakout stars will be and where we'll see the biggest ups and downs this year.

Plus the AI OBBs make their triumphant return as they roll through the schedule and dole out their own season predictions - and as normal it goes way off the rails! We also get into Tyreek Hill saying that he could beat Noah Lyles in a race (which launches Novak into a discussion about golfing in the Olympics), the hilarity surrounding Olympic break dancing, and Charles Barkley leaving $100 million on the table so his TNT people get to keep their jobs.

And we close it out as always with a round of Five Questions, including what you'd do with the richest person in the world's money, our Mount Rushmore of childhood cartoons, the most satisfying pain we've ever felt, the event that made us the most anxious, and things that are better when you finish in second place.

And with the season coming in hot, we go game-by-game for our preseason predictions... with Roman having us losing to UF, Scoop has us losing to USF, while Toast has us losing THREE conference games and all but tanking the entire season. This is hands down the most unexpected and WILD round of season predictions we've ever done.

Plus we get into FIU signing a stadium naming rights deal with Pitbul, the allegations surrounding Deion Sanders and the chaos in the Colorado locker room, and the pole vaulter who knocked off the crossbar with his member.

And we close it out as always with a round of Five Questions, which cover something we can admit about companies we no longer work for, conventionally unattractive people that we find attractive, something you can add 1% to and cause chaos, brutally honest dating advice for men, and the body type of an Olympian that we'd prefer.

We're also joined by an OBB favorite, Roddy Jones from the ACC Network, who jokes about how much he's been playing EA College Football 25 and throwing six picks against Miami while playing as Georgia Tech. And with all the excuses gone this season, Roddy admits that he's buying into Miami because of all the weapons on offense. Roddy even believes that without Cam Ward, this offense could still make some noise because the pieces are that good.

Roddy also gets into the wild card group that are the tight ends, and how Arroyo could be a huge difference maker if utilized correctly on this Miami offense. Plus as we get into the preseason polling, Roddy exposes why he also isn't buying the Florida State hype as the season closes in. And of course Scoop pulls Roddy into the anxiety over the South Florida game.

We also jump into some amazing audio of the week that includes Snoop Dogg calling Olympic Badminton, Paul Finebaum telling Matt Rhule to stay in his lane when it comes to predicting how many Big Ten teams deserve to be in the expanded playoff, and Frank the Tank's total meltdown after Sal Licata jinxed the Mets again.

And as always it's a round of Five Questions, which cover what vehicle we'd transform into if we were Transformers, what current technology we'd take back to the stone age, the name of our Martian football team, what song we'd use to open a worldwide DJ set, and what language we'd like to learn instantly.

Plus FSU continues to shoot themselves in the foot over conference realignment, and Luke Fickell blaming Miami for holding him back after TVD was named the starter at Wisconsin. Plus we dive into a lot of audio of Mario and Cam from ACC Kickoff, as Toast is frustrated with Mario's response to "no excuses" and Roman gets tired of listening to Mario continue to rain superlatives down on Cam Ward. And Mario doesn't want to talk about UF in Week 1, which throws everyone for a loop.

There's also so much golden audio this week including Cam Ward at Media Days, DeShaun Foster butchering his opening press conference in the Big Ten, and Lane Kiffin ripping Paul Finebaum on his own show. And we look at early predictions for All-ACC as nine Canes are currently in that conversation. And we cap it off with the audio of the week as a woman catches a couple having sex in their apartment complex pool.

Plus we close it out with a round of 5 Questions, which this week include the small things in our lives that bring us daily joy, what celebrity we'd have as a roommate, what happened to the most attractive people in our high school, our most hated fruit, and things that don't require a license but should.

They even roll out a round of Five Questions, which includes the Olympic sports we'll most pay attention to, overlooked moments in history, movies we'll always watch when they're on, unconventional pets and the best National Anthem performances of all time.

Miami rolled out the new uniforms, including the "black out" jersey, and no one seems to care because recently we've lost in every uniform! We also start planning the OBB road trip to Vegas for the 2027 season kickoff, even if the heat in Vegas this time of year is unbearable. And that off ramps us into a debate about the appropriate thermostat settings for Florida summers.

We also dive into Phil Knight offering Oregon unlimited NIL money, and Mike Gundy seemingly accidentally admits to driving drunk over 1000 times. And the Wheel of Topics hits on Joey Chestnut mowing down 200 boneless Buffalo Wings, the Hawk Tuah girl cashing in, and Scoop's favorite Crumbl Cookie cereal.

Plus we close it out with a round of 5 Questions, which this week include our "I'm dating an idiot moment", things that caused us to end a friendship, our views on alternate dimensions, how we handle criticism, and things our teachers did that we'll never forget.

Plus as we dive into our Hurricanes Football talk for the week, Toast is starting to get nervous as the bar continues to be raised higher by the day. And Scoop takes a look at the position group rankings, including Phil Steele's ranking of the Canes as an overall preseason #10, and where Miami falls in the way-too-early playoff predictions from 24/7 Sports.

IP Daily makes his triumphant return to the show to comment on the pressure the Canes will face this year. And we're absolutely loaded with crazy stuff in this week's Wheel of Topics, ranging from wild audio from the Panthers Stanley Cup parade, we celebrate Bobby Bonilla Day, dive into the insanity of the Kyle Filipowski "mormon grooming" story and how much we loved seeing Michael J. Fox on stage with Coldplay.

Plus we close it out with a round of 5 Questions, which this week include the most inappropriate place we were drunk, things people don't know will kill them, an oddly fitting song for a bar fight, what you'd have on your Batman utility belt, and songs with the creepiest lyrics.

Miami also made 24-7's preseason list of teams that will win at least 10 games, as they have the Canes going 11-1 with their only loss coming to Florida State... and Scoop still isn't seeing the Florida State buzz this year. And we get a visit from the AI OBB's as they recap the epic Stanley Cup Finals for the Panthers.

Plus this week's Wheel of Topics covers the protestors that ran out onto the 18th green of the Travelers, Dave Grohl taking shots at Taylor Swift, audio from the insane mother that charged her daughter's friend's mom for a play date, and the assassin for hire that worked for the Milwaukee Brewers. 

And it's another classic round of Five Questions, including what you'd do with the Stanley Cup, where you'd hold your South Florida parade, any Game 7 we could witness, 5000 of anything that starts with "y", and the worst thing we've ever experienced at a wedding.

As we finally pull the show back on the tracks, we jump into Miami's playoff expectations going into Week 1 against the Gators, and Scoop jokes that if UM loses to Florida that the season is over before it even starts. And we dance on the grave of the Herald writer who suggested that UM drop sports entirely, and reflect on Phil Steele's picks for UM All Americans.

Plus this week's Wheel of Topics runs the gauntlet from Rory McIlroy choking away the US Open (and the amazing shot Bryson had to hit to win it), Snoop Dogg calling a baseball game, Landon Donovan's jacked up hair, Bill Belichick dating a 24-year-old, and Charles Barkley announcing his retirement.

And it's another classic round of Five Questions, including the strangest reasons we'd stay at an AirBNB, villains with a point, women's traits that men find attractive that women are self conscious about, underappreciated professions and

We also address the unnamed ACC coach that said the questions at Miami surround the coaching staff far more than the stacked roster, and Scoop goes in on Lindy Sports for leavine Rueben Bain off the All-ACC predictions. 

Plus a wide open wheel of topics takes us to Danny Hurley rejecting the LA Lakers (UConn fan Toast weighs in), we call for Major League Eating to free Joey Chestnut, and everyone is completely astounded by the rodeo bull that got loose in Oregon. 

Plus it's another classic round of Five Questions, including the wildest thing you'd see in the IT department, what artist we could listen to on a 10-hour road trip, medicine that were life changers for us, how we annoy our jerk neighbors, and what we did to get blocked by celebrities.

Somehow we get into a full-on discussion about the Cola wars, now that Dr. Pepper has surpassed Pepsi as #2 on the best selling soda list. And as we pull the car back onto the road we take a good look at the ACC power rankings and get worried that Miami might be coming in with too much hype.

Plus some absolutely amazing audio of the week from Houston activist Quanell X, and everyone gets their licks in on the media frenzy around Caitlin Clark, largely in agreement that the girls in the league need to get on board with what she's done for the sport and just play her tough and stop with the sensitivity. 

And, as always, we close things out with a round of Five Questions, including who we'd take the fall for, things we shouldn't be congratulated for, games we can never stop playing, cheap food we'll never stop eating, and the room we'd make in our dream home.

Roman also gives a quick wrap on the UM baseball season before we launch into this week's 

Wheel of... Audio! We got from the hilariously viral Wheel of Fortune contest, the Oklahoma high school soccer announcer that trashed the players on a hot mic, the man who Zoomed into his court appearance for driving on a expired license while driving, a fan pigging out at the White Sox vs Blue Jays game, and Jaelen Phillips finding an Iguana in his toilet.

Plus we also touch on the passing of Bill Walton, the Home Alone house being for sale, and the pilot jumping the gun on a Ft Lauderdale flight and telling the passengers to prepare for a water landing. And Scoop has a serious moment as we reflect on the tragic passing of Grayson Murray. 

And, as always, we close things out with a round of Five Questions, including things that are off limits at the gym, what car we'd use if we were Doc Brown, movies we wish we could wipe from our memories, the hardest thing to throw away, and the funniest thing we would say to the cops during a traffic stop.

We also get Scoop's reaction to the anarchy of the Scottie Scheffler arrest at the PGA Championship, and wonder if he'll actually see jail time due to the severity of the charges. We also highlight some amazing audio of the week from Minnesota Timberwolves stars Anthony Edwards and Karl Anthony-Towns, and have some fun with Ben Affleck claiming he was "temporarily insane" when he married J-Lo. And how good can the new Wendy's 50-piece nugget really be if it only costs $15.

And we close this week with an EPIC round of Five Questions hosted by the AI Orange Bowl Boys!! Questions include things we wish we knew how to do, paranormal experiences, government secrets we need to know, rude-talking animals and ways we'd like to see nations settle disputes instead of war.

Roman also overcame a huge fear by actually getting a massage, which leads us into a wild conversation about Ro's neck phobia. And this week's Wheel of Topics brings us the most hated man in America in Harrison Butker (which wasn't as bad as it's being spun), Netflix green lighting Happy Gilmore 2, and the porn reporter that invaded Luka Doncic's post-game press conference. Plus NFL creative schedule releases and the haunting red Prince Charles portrait.

And we close it out as we always do with a round of Five Questions - including weird things we'd say to our surgeon, how we correct losing focus, implanted false memories, coolest named places, how we'd spend a million dollars, and what dog breeds have the craziest owners.

Plus everyone tries to take a look at the gains and losses in the portal, and just how good Mario has shown to be in this portal recruiting cycle. And Deion Sanders has been buzzing all over social media as his time at Colorado has seemed to turn the corner, after just one year. 

This week's Wheel of Topics brings us some amazing audio from the NFL Draft from FSU's Keon Coleman - who knows how to jacket show - to Xavier Legette's southern mumble. We also enjoy the bees that took over the baseball game, legalized gambling at Dave & Busters, and the NBC vs TNT battle over the future of the NBA. We also kick around Jake Paul fighting Mike Tyson in a sanctioned brawl, changes at the NFL on CBS and a hands-thrown baseball fight.

And it wouldn't be a show without a round of Five Questions - including sports franchises we would buy, horror villains we'd try to outrun, the next big thing that died, our unconventional achievements, and the type of people who annoy us.

The AI OBB's return for the second week in a row, this time to rip FSU for their "unconquered" ring after losing 63-3 to Georgia in the Orange Bowl. And the audio of the week brings us a farting NFL General Manager and a debate about whether it was a burp or a fart. Plus some congratulations to Reggie Bush for getting his Heisman Trophy back. 

And it wouldn't be a show without a round of Five Questions - including things that scream we're bad with money, what we'd say to our moms as children, who screwed up their one job, what certain emotions smell like, what non flying animal would be lethal if it could fly, and what we'd do with our clones.

Now that we're all drinking the Kool-Aid, everyone wants a win to start the year on the road in Gainesville, and realistically we need to see Mario make the most of this one season with Cam or his seat might start getting warm. And the glorious return of the AI OBBs goes all over the road with new AI written theme songs!
