College Sports Now

You already know what time it is. Midweek edition of CSN finds you just three days out from the start of the college football season; Wayne Cook is highly caffeinated, Hartzell is poking the bear, and the Godfather himself - Phil Steele - returns to the main stage for his season debut. The guys talk about Phil's magazine - which you need to get to Barnes & Nobles yesterday to get for kickoff - but there are real, actual football games to break down, people. Come for the banter, stay for the Week Zero picks which, let's be honest, you know you want.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Game week is here and we are officially back with the full cast of CSN characters! Hartzell is joined alongside Roddy Jones and Tripp Hurd to break down actual football games that start in *checks notes* just four days. And since the best game of this weekend involves two Big 12 teams you might as well get the best Big 12 analyst in the game, so that's exactly what we did. Shehan Jeyarajah covers college football for CBS Sports and he helps the guys break down this conference like very few can. How many teams are in the mix to actually win this league? Can Arizona State do the thing again? Does Shehan buy Baylor & Utah & Texas Tech at the top of this conference? And - oh by the way - pretty big game in Ireland this Saturday to kick off the week zero between Iowa State and Kansas State, which the guys discuss at length. A solid 30 minutes is dedicated just to the Big 12, plus we get some leans and locks from Roddy & Tripp who both have alter egos and aren't afraid to make some picks ahead of toe

On the second edition of the Battle for Atlanta, we preview six more teams (Texas, Ole Miss, Tennessee, Texas A&M, Oklahoma & Kentucky), with analysis from Stephen Hartzell and Tony Barnhart, and sound from players and coaches from all six teams.

We have not one, but two ACC legends with us to help break down the league. Hartzell has ten questions to drive the discussion and they are:1- Are we buying the GT hype?2- Is Miami finally going to do the thing?3- Where is the weakness on Clemson?4- How are we feeling about these week 1 non-con games?5- Who is the best football team in the state of North Carolina?6- Is Stanford the worst Power 4 team in America?7- SMU or Louisville, who ya got?8- Florida State's win total is 6.5 ... over or under?9- Will Virginia Tech get back to relevancy this season?10- The coach with the hottest seat in the league is ____________Enjoy nearly two hours of ACC talk from the guys who know it better than most.

Summer is over, folks. Kids are back to school, college football season is a little more than two weeks away, and our man Wayne Cook has a lot to say about the sport we all love. The guys are breaking down Wayno's top-5 storylines going into the season, and Hartzell is doing his best to NOT talk about a certain school in LA coming off a 5-win season. Plenty of talk about schedules (which are, by nature, unbalanced), quarterbacks, and the biases that affect how we consume so much of our college football content (hint: stop feeding at the trough). Wayne is fired up, which you would expect after 6 months off. Thank you for listening and we can't wait to talk ball with you all season long!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Special episode of CSN where Hartzell, Felder, and Surber join forces to talk CFB26 with EA's Principal Game Designer Ben Haumiller. We're a month out from real, actual college football games ... so let's talk about what we've all been doing for the last couple weeks, which is building these dynasties on CFB26! Surbs is an elite gamer, Hartzell is not very good at the game, and Felder doesn't even play ... but the guys have questions and Ben's got answers. What's changed about the game from last year? When can you expect the first update? And how do you stop throwing so many INTs? Hopefully this helps hold you over until the regular dose of CSN's start cranking up in a couple of weeks when Roddy, Wayne, Tripp, and the rest of the gang all start punching the clock!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
