Tennessee levels up with Iamaleava | Late Kick Live Ep. 247 Mar 28, 2022

Show notes

Late Kick Live Ep. 247 features Josh Pate opening up the Late Kick inbox and taking viewer questions spanning the entire world of College Football. With Tennessee landing a verbal commitment from 5* QB Nico Iamaleava and a significant NIL price tag attached to him, what does this mean for Volunteer Football and the NIL market overall? Are giant stadiums a thing of the past in College Football with the in-come viewing experience continuing to improve and ticket prices not falling anytime soon? What would the ideal selection criteria for the CFB Playoff be if you ran a committee of one? What about Texas in 2022? Is it more likely the Horns make a big move or Sark starts feeling pressure? Should the national title game be moved to Saturday despite all the alleged reasons why Monday makes more sense? Where will technology play the next big role in the evolution of our sport? All that plus some storm chasing talk, a hat tip to Michigan State, and a surprising new Late Kick conspiracy theory emerges.

College Football's Greatest Cult Heroes | Late Kick Live Ep. 246 Mar 23, 2022

Show notes

Late Kick Live Ep. 246 features Josh Pate opening the Late Kick mailbag for a wide-ranging Q&A session beginning with a look at College Football’s biggest cult heroes over the years - specifically guys who never won a national title but still owned the national conversation for a period. Next we look at Alabama and the rest of the sport through a post-Saban lens. Will there ever be another dynasty with the extended run like we’ve seen in Tuscaloosa? With fantasy football being a huge hit in pro circles, why hasn’t it ever caught on nationally with College Football fans? How about the SEC on CBS theme music? When the SEC contract moves to ESPN in a few years, will the music be gone for good? If so, will we get an adequate replacement? Josh also takes a look at the SEC East this fall and answers a question about whether Tennessee or South Carolina could have what it takes to spring an upset on UGA.

College Football's best traditions | Late Kick Live Ep. 245 Mar 21, 2022

Show notes

Late Kick Live Ep. 245 features Josh Pate opening the Late Kick mailbag for a wide-ranging Q&A session beginning with the most impressive performance he’s seen in-person. Does anyone remember how much Derrick Henry carried Alabama down the stretch in the Tide’s 2015 championship run? What about teams that were down in 2021 and stand a decent chance of enjoying a comeback season in 2022? Can North Carolina fulfill the high hopes many have for the program? Will Texas break through in year 2 under Steve Sarkisian? What about Wisconsin? From there we discuss the best traditions in College Football, from pregame eagle flights at Auburn to Enter Sandman at Virginia Tech to Chief Osceola at FSU and the Whiteout at Penn State. Josh also takes a look across the nation and discusses new head coaching hires, specifically which ones were the most surprising to him.
