The FREAKS of College Football | LSU Season Outlook | Nelly at Halftime! | Bo Nix in NYC | Andy On3 Want to watch the show instead? Head to YouTube and don't forget to subscribe! https://youtu.be/Z-V6r_UU9c8 As the College Football season is rapidly approaching us, we break down the freaks of college football. Bruce Feldman from the Athletic picked 101 of them, and we break some of them down. The Big 12 is “done” with this round of realignment, according to commissioner Brett Yormark on Wednesday on the Marchand and Ourand podcast. Andy discusses what that means going forward. Meanwhile, Oregon unveiled a giant Bo Nix billboard on the side of a Manhattan building — a plug for the QB’s Heisman hopes and an homage to the Times Square billboard featuring Joey Harrington when he was the Ducks’ QB. (0:00-10:26) Next, Bruce Feldman (The Athletic/Fox Sports) joins to discuss his Freaks List, a compendium of the 101 freakiest players in college football. What does the sheer number of freaks on Penn State’s roster mean for the Nittany Lions? Is South Carolina freshman receiver Nyckoles Harbor America’s freakiest player? Can Miami freshman OL Francis Mauigoa turn freaky traits into instant production? How good can LSU DT Maason Smith — who was lost for the season to injury after five plays last season — be in his return to the field? Plus, Bruce highlights Harvard defensive tackle Thor Griffith, the Ivy League’s freakiest player. (10:27-47:28) Later, Shea Dixon of On3’s The Bengal Tiger joins to talk LSU. What’s the latest with Texas A&M transfer cornerback Denver Harris? Plus, Shea reveals the names of some LSU freshmen who could make big impacts this season. To learn more about all things LSU, check out The Bengal Tiger: https://www.on3.com/teams/lsu-tigers/ (47:29-01:03:31) Andy’s Extra Point pays tribute to Nelly, who reportedly will be the halftime performer for the 2023 Big 12 title game. It even includes a bonus Random Ranking. (1:03:32-01:07:17)

0:00.0	Welcome to Andy Staples on three, and it's Wednesday, August 16th,
0:17.2	2003, and the Big 12 is done for this round of expansion.
0:22.8	Done!
0:23.8	That is what Commissioner Brett Yormar told New York Post, Andrew Marchan,
0:28.3	and the Sports Business Journal's John Oran on their excellent podcast.
0:32.4	If you were a super nerd about things like TV rights and all that good stuff,
0:39.0	you should be listening to that,
0:41.7	but only after you finish listening to this one.
0:47.8	So they are done, done, done, according to Brett Yormark.
0:53.9	There was a question about would Yukon still be a potential ad maybe for other sports,
0:55.5	which would get the basketball team in there? Would Gonzaga be a potential ad maybe for other sports, which would get the basketball team in there?
0:57.8	Would Gonzaga be a potential ad?
0:59.9	Gonzaga, of course, doesn't have football.
1:09.7	And those were, I think now we're realizing those were sort of backup plans if the Big 12's master plan didn't come to fruition.
1:15.2	And so if it had just been Colorado, let's say the PAC 12 would stay together, Arizona, Arizona State and Utah had said, no, we're fine in the PAC 12.

1:22.5	And maybe you tack on Gonzaga just to add more quality to the basketball league, which the Big 12 already
1:28.9	a very good basketball league with Kansas Baylor, Kansas State under Jerome Tang is fantastic.
1:34.7	So they had a pretty good product going there.
1:36.8	But then they add Arizona, which already a Power 5 member and has an incredible basketball
