Grinch was fired Sunday. Andy reveals his resume rankings, which now look suspiciously like the College Football Playoff selection committee ranking. Anthony Broome of On3's The Wolverine joins to explain what might happen next at Michigan. The Big Ten and Michigan's administration continue to discuss allegations of signal-stealing. Will there be any kind of resolution? Also, the Wolverines face their toughest game so far this season at Penn State on Saturday. Next, Andy discusses his projected College Football Playoff and New Year's Six bowls. Tim Watts of On3's Bama Online joins to explain how the Crimson Tide have evolved over the course of this season. What started as a flawed team now looks like a lock to win the SEC West and might be good enough by December to challenge Georgia. Then it's time to talk opening lines, and the Rutgers-Iowa total this week is a doozy. Bobby Burton of On3's Inside Texas joins to talk about a Longhorns win against Kansas State that wasn't pretty but represents a step forward for the program. Finally, Nick De La Torre of On3's Gators Online breaks down what happens next at Florida after a shocking overtime loss to Arkansas that will force the Gators to pull a major upset down the stretch if they want to play in a bowl game.

0:00.0	Welcome to April's On 3. It is a Sunday night in November following a bunch of really important
0:09.9	games. And I got to say, not the level of news that I was necessarily expecting this time of year
0:20.0	or that we necessarily get this time of year. But there was one
0:22.9	big piece of news and it came out of Los Angeles. USC has parted ways with defensive
0:29.0	coordinator Alex Grinch following a 52 to 42 loss to Washington. When this came out, I had my
0:36.8	thoughts immediately and had to just turn on the camera
0:40.3	and record them. So here's where I was right at the moment Lincoln Riley announced that he
0:47.4	had fired Alex Grinch. USC coach Lincoln Riley has done what he probably should have done after last year's
0:55.8	Pact 12 championship game. He has fired defensive coordinator Alex Grinch, a relationship
1:01.2	that spanned Oklahoma and USC, but never really produced any good defenses outside of 2020
1:08.5	is over. Riley announced it on Sunday, said Grinch has been relieved
1:15.5	to his duties. D-line coach Sean Nua and inside linebackers coach Brian Odom will be interim
1:21.5	co-defensive coordinators for the rest of the way for the Trojans. And honestly, it can't get much worse than the defense that we've
1:31.0	seen so far this year. USC ranked 109th in the nation and yards per play allowed at 6.1.
1:38.5	124th in the nation. There are 133 FBS schools, by the way. In scoring defense with 34.5 points
1:46.9	a game, only one opponent this season has averaged under five yards per play. That was Arizona
1:54.3	State, which averaged 4.97. So gain another yard, and they would have crossed that threshold.
2:00.7	They were number 128 in the country
2:04.5	in plays of 10 plus yards allowed with 150. To put that in perspective, USC plays Oregon this week.
2:13.8	Oregon's defense ranks number 13 in the country in that stat with 97, so less than
2:20.2	than two-thirds of the total that USC has given up this season. It was just unbelievable after
2:28.3	an off-season where USC did some things to upgrade its talent on defense. They get Barry Alexander, the transfer from
