Summary

College Football week 8 reactions are here as Saturday was explosive. Florida has fired Billy Napier after Florida’s season came off the rails. Where will the Gators turn? LSU vs Vanderbilt saw the Commodores get another huge win while Tennessee vs Alabama featured Kalen DeBoer and the Tide continuing to roll. The week 9 edition of the AP Poll dropped tonight as we get updated rankings. Where is Indiana? Is Miami still top 10? Ohio State, UGA, and Alabama were also winners this weekend. Do we still see Texas in the top 20? Hugh Freeze is facing considerable heat at Auburn as speculation about the hot seat has ramped up. The same could be said for Mike Norvell at FSU and Brian Kelly at LSU. All that plus early best bets on the Ramen Noodle Express.

Billy Napier is out at Florida. That's a big announcement. The James Franklin News, a week ago was a big announcement. We've got more firings coming. It brings me no joy to tell you that because a lot of this stuff I would prefer not to happen, but it's going to happen. Maybe not during the show tonight, but it's going to happen. So we're going to talk about all of it. Freeze at Auburn. I think it's going to happen. Norville at Florida State. I'm pretty sure it's going to happen. We'll talk about it.
