This is an I-Heart podcast.

I'll tell you the shame of it all is not that we hadn't done a show in a week. Yes, that's a shame. But the shame of it all is you would think if we hadn't done a show in a week, then that means everyone's been on vacation. I actually think we've done more show-related work in the past week than we did any week during the season itself, which will pay off in the not too distant future. There's like this sick,

twisted part of me that is more excited about what we're going to do this spring and summer

than what we're going to do this fall. I told you, pretty sick and twisted, right? Jam packed,

brought to you by Academy Sports and Outdoors, high atop a rainy downtown Nashville, Tennessee.

So what do you talk about? You know, on a college

football show, Colin, Jesse, I guess we haven't discussed this in a little while, the casuals

would ask, what do you talk about once the season's over? Well, I'll tell you what we're going to

talk about tonight because we're extremely jam-packed. Michigan versus the NCAA. I know that's

what the marquee says. I know that's what the billing says.

I don't think that's the matchup, guys. I've got some pretty strong and well-formulated thoughts

on what I believe is going to happen with Michigan and what is happening with Michigan right now.

There was another little minor earthquake. Obviously, there are real world events

happening out there that make college football's big events pale in comparison. But in the world

of college football, there was a pretty big story that dropped today. That whole ACC-E-SPN thing.

I'll dive into it. I don't necessarily think from angles that everyone else is

diving into it from, because I don't think the headline, just like the Michigan story, is the

real story here. Mystery teams, what do we have? Four of them tonight? It's not an exhaustive list.

But I got several teams, you know, North Carolina is certainly one of them with Bill Belichick. Do we

believe in the Chapel Bill Bump, the old CBB, used to stand for college basketball, I think, in Chapel Hill. Maybe not so much anymore. I've got season grades tonight. You know Cam Newton worked his way in the show? He's not actually joining us. I don't think, Colin, though, you don't have him. We're not going to have Cam on the show, but he said something today. I didn't like it. I think it heavily draws into college football and college athletics and life. So, you know, what I'm trying to tell you is we're going to get a life lesson tonight, courtesy of Cam Newton. And whom's amongst us wouldn't want to pass that up.

They're watching us in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, San Jose, California, beautiful Ella J. Georgia,

and Huntington, West Virginia. Now, as we get into the show tonight, I do need to put out
