Can There Be an Ashton Jeanty in 2025? 52:29

منذ يومين52:29

52:29

A running back from Boise State helped define the 2024 season. Does CFB have an RB waiting in the wings to make a similar imprint in 2025? Probably not exactly, given Jeanty’s historic season and the difficulty non-power programs have had retaining star running backs this offseason. But if we’re just looking for running backs who can defy difficult circumstances and elevate their offenses to a new level, we can find some candidates to be 2025’s Jeanty.

The 8 Ways to Smoke Out a Fake National Title Claim 1:09:31

منذ 19 يومًا1:09:31

1:09:31

College football history is loaded with BS national championship claims, as well as some non-consensus claims that AREN’T ridiculous. How do we tell the difference? What patterns emerge when we look at decades of disputed titles? What is the most ridiculous national title claim of all time? (Spoiler: It’s one of Alabama’s claims. But why don’t the Tide claim other titles that would be a lot less outrageous?) No other sport has a feature quite like this one, and we’ve got an expert to talk through it with us: Keith Gaddie, TCU professor and author of a new book, “Bragging Rites,” on the history of arguing over national championships. ( The book comes out May 24 .) More from Split Zone Duo’s partners: * Use SZD20 for 20% off your first order at Homefield . There’s fresh college sports apparel dropping at Homefield all the time.

Why You're Always Bad: Rice 32:27

منذ 26 يومًا32:27

32:27

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.splitzoneduo.com The Rice Owls have had 36 winning seasons since 1914. They once lost 18 games in a row. They have wandered from conference to conference since the death of the SWC, and despite being in a huge city that loves football, they have precious few fans. They are the only college football program to struggle so much that when JFK used them to justify going to the moon, everyone understood the reference. For decades, this picture has barely changed. Why is football so hard at Rice? To get to the bottom of it, Alex and Richard interview two experts: Matthew Bartlett and Carter Spires of The Roost , the internet’s top destination for Rice sports news and commentary. Among other things, the group discusses: * How a Rice game day looks * The program’s many downs and occasional ups, like its record-setting 2008 team that won 10 games * JFK’s famous speech that doubled as a minor dig at the team * How Rice fits into, or sets itself apart from, the city of Houston * Why a school that figured out baseball has never cracked football * The difficulties of recruiting to a school that cares about school * The school’s decision to get a bit more serious about football latey * The best possible case for Rice football in the next 10 years * VERDICT TIME: Stay in the AAC, drop to FCS, or stop playing football? This is the second episode in an SZD series, “Why You’re Always Bad." For the first subscriber episode, on Kent State, scroll down in this podcast feed.

Alex and Richard discuss in this subscriber episode: * How Jordon filled a vacuum in UNC football communications * Why Alex thinks UNC should look for a way out of this marriage * Why Richard thinks that could be a substantial overreaction * What Urban Meyer’s Jaguars season tells us about the situation * What UNC is losing already and why The Athletic’s report about the program losing “Hard Knocks” is one of the biggest red flags * The idea of Belichick as a coaching hire vs. the reality in his current form * Where Belichick is already, however, providing some value to UNC * Finding common ground Further listening: Our Belichick “emergency show” when he was hired in March Producer: Anthony Vito Hosts: Alex Kirshner, Richard Johnson…

Pac-12 and Indy Vibe Checks + The State of Special Teams Development 1:12:59

منذ 5 weeks1:12:59

1:12:59

Part 1 of this week’s episode is the continuation of SZD’s “Offseason Vibe Checks” series, checking in on the Pac-12 and the FBS independents. You may be thinking, “Nice, but that’s probably going to be a really short episode, because there are just two Pac-12 teams and three independents at the moment.” Fear not! Part 2 is an interview with author Victoria Zeller, who joins Alex to discuss her new book One of the Boys and the deep research she did into the state of modern special teams development. #CollegeKickers are getting better despite lacking training at most high schools. How? Well, there’s a story there. * In the Pac-12, Washington State had the kind of offseason that Oregon State had last year, and now the Cougars have to pick up the pieces * Among the FBS independents: UConn’s doing well, UMass is at least trying something sensible as it prepares to move to the MAC this summer, and Notre Dame has lots of backfilling and an intriguing QB battle on the agenda * Victoria Zeller talks about “One of the Boys,” the privatization of special teams development, and much more.

Over a few days in late 2021, USC, Oklahoma, Notre Dame, LSU, Oregon, and Miami played a high-stakes game of musical chairs.

Alex and Richard break down offseason happenings in the Mid-American Conference, which saw lots of coach carousel turnover. * Ohio: Tim Albin to Charlotte, OC Brian Smith replacing him * Ball State: An off-the-beaten-path coach hire, bringing on a guy who most recently coached non-scholarship football in the Pioneer League * Miami: It’s a Return to the MAC for QB Dequan Finn * Buffalo: Pete Lembo tries to follow up a surprisingly good opening act * Bowling Green: Has an offseason loss of a coach ever looked better than the Falcons winding up with Eddie George? * Western Michigan: Major staff turnover as Lance Taylor tries to fix it * Toledo: Jason Candle has a good roster (as usual) and spicy spring game commentary * NIU: Losing basically everything from last year’s team that beat Notre Dame, and also preparing for a conference switch * Akron: A portal exodus * EMU: Ditto, but Chris Creighton is a hard man to count out * Central Michigan: Trying something different with Army’s Matt Drinkall as head coach. We applaud the spirit of the hire * Kent State: Well, it’s really, really bad The MAC also has some realignment coming for this season, with UMass joining back up. They’re not officially Midwesterners again until July, though, so we’ll discuss the Minutemen when we check in with the independents. (Ed. note! We recorded most of this episode shortly before the spring transfer portal window opened, but we made a few updates before publication on 4/23, mostly to cover the late-spring firing of Kent State’s head coach.)
