After a savory course of week nine college football games, Andy and Ari react to the weekend that was. Before unwrapping each big matchup, the guys share their first College Football Playoff rankings. Even though the scoreboard may tell a different story, Ohio State had Penn State well in hand. Although, could Michigan State take Ohio State to the wire in the Big Ten Championship game? If Michigan happens to win out, where do they reside in the CFP pecking order? The guys take a ride on the coaching carousel to pinpoint some names that are on the hot seat.

Payoff pod! Ari tosses a shot of Woodford Reserve mixed with store-brand mustard down his hatch, and all Andy does is watch gleefully because, you know, #PittsTooLegitToQuit. The guys canvas the week nine slate including Oregon-Colorado. Will the Ducks continue their waddle to a 12-1 record? If so, which 12-1 squad do the guys believe would make the playoff, Oregon or Ohio State? Caleb Williams will be the first to test out Texas Tech's new regime. Will he and the Sooners bounce back after an uninspiring win? Ari's still off the Texas wagon, but are they so bad that they're a three-point underdog to Baylor? Will Pitt continue to be legit versus Miami? Plus, Notre Dame's uphill climb to 11-1; will Flordia cover against Georgia; will Ole Miss-Auburn be a shootout, and Michigan-Michigan State is like the Spiderman pointing meme.

Andy and Max Olson whip around college football and underscore the biggest storylines in week eight. Pitt IS legit, and Ari IS going to have to drink a mustard-drenched shot of liquor! The guys analyze Pittsburgh's success and Clemson's faults. Oklahoma narrowly avoids...Kansas? Caleb Williams flashed a few "Freshman moments" but he's still Oklahoma's best option...right? Is it time to implement a new overtime format? Because a 9OT Penn State-Illinois game is a lot to ingest. Oregon escaped with a win in another Pac-12 thriller, but were they saved by Dorian Thompson-Robinson's being off the field with an injury? Is there trouble brewing in Tuscaloosa? Mike Leech doesn't like candy corn (and Vanderbilt doesn't like scoring). Plus, is Justin Fuente's and Max Wells' time up?
