Summary
Kanell and Bell react to news of Urban Meyer's suspension, his lack of sincerity at Wednesday's press conference and Ohio State's on-field outlook this season. Danny and Raja also discuss the formally announced match between Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, the NFL resisting a change to the new helmet-to-helmet rule, and indecision at QB among top college football programs. The guys then welcome in Matt Norlander to discuss the abolishment of the RPI in favor of NET, Duke's freshman stars and Kansas' team power. Next a preseason Week 3 focus on the Eagles and Browns as only Off the Bench can do, and finally, Leftovers!
