That new self isn’t quite like the ‘old self’ but maybe, just maybe that’s a good thing. Jeremy Wahman of Cardinal Sports Zone brings his large-than-life personality back to the show and illustrates why he’s the ‘goat’ when it comes to slinging sports fandom hash. He shares his many years of connectivity with the school and close-up observations on what’s what with the men’s team.

If you thought it was pretty much wrapped up after watching the first half and didn't stick around....perhaps you've learned your lesson.

The initial CFP 12 team rankings come out Tuesday, November 5 in what will be a string of many leading up to the final selection of worthy squads.

We're doing our best to slip some Halloween references in before all the Christmas items hit the stores. Okay, time for a reality check on the ACC. You may remember us telling you on previous podcasts that the conference almost always turns upside down in opening weeks.

The offense hit some potholes, the defense was better than most would have imagined and though the season's end wasn't what was desired overall you can't argue too much with the final win/loss record. But, did the new coach and crew along with a rejuvenated fan base walk into a self-made trap of expecting not only a repeat but a full-blown dynasty to arrive?

Don’t Call It ‘High-Octane’Join us for a fascinating conversation with special guest Chris Peak of Panther-Lair as we look at, among other things the 180 turn on offense by head coach Pat Narduzzi. Instead of calling it a high octane offense we've decided to describe it as 'juiced'.
Peak provides some thoughts on Heather Lyke (Pitt AD) being on the interview list for a vacancy at Northwestern before jumping in feet first to preview Pitt from top to bottom. The changes on offense (Kade Bell) and transfers will make a big difference in how the Panthers approach putting points on the board.
