Head on over to YouTube - don't forget to subscribe! https://youtu.be/C0yYIHZF9aw It's a Dear Andy show, but First we have some news to take care of: Alabama's experiment with Ty Buchner as its starting quarterback was short lived, as Nick Saban announces that Jalen Milroe will take the reigns for their conference opener vs. Ole Miss. Speaking of Ole Miss, Lane Kiffin made some comments about Alabama's defense that caught Nick Saban's attention. (0:00-7:42) Colorado's schedule picks up this weekend as they hit the road to take on Oregon in Eugene, but they will have to do so without one of their best players. Two-way star Travis Hunter suffered a lacerated liver against Colorado State that will leave him sidelined for multiple weeks. (7:43-8:30) Michigan State athletic director Alan Haller has announced his intentions to terminate Mel Tucker with cause (8:31-10:10) We catch up with our good friend Jim Nagy to figure out players on his radar entering a massive week 4 in college football and some under-the-radar players to keep your eye out for. (10:11-26:00) It's time for Dear Andy where we answer your great questions this week: What is the craziest realistic scenario for this college football season? (26:01-32:10) Our next question comes from George in the principal's office about the Miami Hurricanes and where they currently sit (32:11-36:30) Mike asks if there's any better looking Quarterback and Head Coach duo than Sam Hartman and Marcus Freeman, and Andy finds some candidates, mainly from out west (36:31-40:10) Our next question comes from Bo who is frustrated with the start of the Mississippi State Bulldogs in Starkville (40:11-47:25) Our next question comes from Nick in Charlotte who is watching the slow decline of Oklahoma State and Mike Gundy. He wonders if there's any turn-around in sight for the Cowboys (47:26-53:47) Next up we have a question about the high-tempo offensive approach that Tennessee runs and what Baylor used to run (53:48-1:03:07) The final question of the episode is one that regards a conference that will soon be no more. Is the Pac-12 the deepest league in the country? (1:03:08-1:06:38) For today's extra point, we go back to Justin who requests a random ranking of the lunches eaten in the movie The Breakfast Club (1:06:39-1:10:25)

Welcome to Andy Staples on three and a mystery solved right off the bat.

0:09.7

Not something we expected to happen, but on Monday, Nick Sabin in the midst of a quarterback

0:17.4

situation just announced who his starting quarterback would be.

0:22.1

You know, from a quarterback standpoint, this is all I'm going to say about this.

0:25.9

You know, Jalen really showed the leadership that I was looking for, you know,

0:30.6

during the game in terms of supporting his teammates and doing the things he needed to do.

0:36.0

He's had the opportunity to play.

0:38.2

So was the other guys.

0:39.8

Jalen played the best of all those guys.

0:42.9

And so I think he's earned the opportunity to be the quarterback.

0:48.2

So it's a dear Andy show.

0:49.7

I'm going to answer your questions later.

0:51.8

All of those questions about who's going to be Alabama's quarterback. Didn't need to answer them because Nick Saban answered it on Monday. And that was just

1:05.5

wonder all week and then maybe they'd reveal it on Friday like they have where sources would say who

1:12.4

was starting or maybe they just wouldn't tell us and then we'd see who trotted out against

1:16.8

Ole Miss on Saturday.

1:17.9

But Jalen Milrow, your starting quarterback after Alabama tried Tyler Buckner first in the

1:22.8

USF game and that didn't work.

1:24.6

1:33.4

But it looks like Jalen Milrow is the guy from this point forward. And we've talked about this a couple times now. There's an offense that can be run around Jalen Milrow where Alabama can be
