UCLA has scored more than 17 points just one time this season….was their high-scoring game against Rutgers a fluke or something to be concerned for on Saturday? Oct 31, 2024

Show notes

-When UCLA beat Rutgers in Piscataway 2 weeks ago, 35-32, it surprised a lot of people---including the 3-Legged Stool---mostly with the fact they did it with as many points as they did

-Before that game, they had scored 17 points in 2 separate occasions (both losses) and everything else beyond that was below 17 points…what type of game are we expecting on Saturday?

There have been many great stories in college football this year, but what is happening at Pittsburgh might open eyes for those saying NIL and the portal is out of control Oct 31, 2024

Show notes

-Pittsburgh went 3-9 last season and some thought that they’d fire Pat Narduzzi---but luckily they didn’t, and they are 7-0 to start this season

-In an article by Yahoo Sports!’ Ross Dellenger, Narduzzi said he had to clean house---he fired nearly his entire offensive staff, completely altered the distribution of NIL cash to his team, and “opened up the exit door” to players who wanted more money but didn’t do anything to really earn more

-Pitt is playing a new offensive type brought up from the FCS with a QB from Alabama, and off to their best start in 40 years---and they’re now using NIL to pay players who deserve it…can that work here and other places?

Just how important is the time of game for homefield advantage? Oct 30, 2024

Show notes

-The question is posed because of Ole Miss’ Lane Kiffin commenting about LSU getting another night game as they play Alabama this week, but Ole Miss hosts Georgia at 2:30pm

-The Rebels lost at LSU in primetime 2 weeks ago, and have only played in primetime 2 other times---their one home game in primetime was against Furman of the FCS

-Take away Ole Miss and make it a universal discussion…how important is the actual time of game for homefield advantage? We pointed out that Nebraska’s 3 close games vs. Ohio State were ALL 11am games…

Sean Callahan (Husker Online) Oct 30, 2024

Show notes

-Nebraska’s defense was excellent in Saturday’s 21-17 loss at Ohio State…does that further make you wonder what exactly happened to that unit vs. Indiana?

-Nebraska is 5-22 in the month of November since 2017…do you believe this is the year things start changing with that narrative?

-From seemingly out of nowhere, John Hohl went 3-for-3 on FGs against the Buckeyes, including a 54-yarder…do you believe in that operation now or need to see it again this week to buy in?

Marcus Satterfield and Tony White addressed media yesterday…what did Nebraska’s OC have to say about his struggling offense? Oct 30, 2024

Show notes

-Satterfield has drawn the angst of the fanbase for most of his 2 year tenure in Lincoln, and although the Ohio State came down to the wire, he wasn’t popular with his playcalls for most of the game

-Did he address the constant use of the screen pass yesterday? Was his response respectable or not?

-As for White, while Saturday’s performance vs. the Buckeyes was great, it makes you question even more what the hell happened at Indiana….what did he have to say?
