Find it below, Like & Subscribe! https://youtube.com/live/WRZ1xe98ITk Andy and Yahoo!'s Dan Wetzel discuss the news Dan broke Wednesday that a group of Big Ten presidents is evaluating possible further westward expansion that could include Cal, Oregon, Stanford and Washington. Meanwhile, the Pac-12 awaits decisions from Arizona and Arizona State. Andy and Dan also talk about Florida State president Rick McCullough's declaration Wednesday that the Seminoles should look to leave the ACC. Does Florida State have a plan to get out of the ACC? Would the Big Ten or SEC take the Seminoles. (0:00-27:17) We return to actual football talk with an interview with Kansas State guard Cooper Beebe, who might be the best interior lineman in college football. (27:18-44:40) Later, Andy talks Oregon with Scoopduck publisher Justin Hopkins. (44:40-1:00:58) Out of nowhere, Arizona announces a meeting for Thursday evening starting at 9 PM ET (1:00:58-1:04:55) After a recruit's photo of a plate of food at a Michigan recruiting event went viral, Andy called professional pitmaster (and former Florida offensive lineman) Shannon Snell to discuss what a school should cook when recruits are on campus. Prepare for a deep barbecue conversation. (1:04:56-1:14:28) Andy's Extra Point returns to FSU, which did something highly unusual Wednesday. Will it work? (1:14:29-1:16:40)
