Always College Football with Greg McElroy - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Greg does an excellent college football podcast. Because he played the game himself at a high level he knows the X’s and O’s of football, and he gives just the right amount of technical analysis without going too far above my head. If you watch Josh Pate or Joel Klatt you should give Always College Football a listen. He has his own style and delivery that I appreciate. He doesn’t get hysterical or hyperbolic - just good lively college football analysis. He has a fun delivery and a good sense of humor. He is personable and not angry or arrogant. He loves the game and it shows. I listen to every single episode. I also particularly appreciate his Sunday morning show, as it is the first take on the Saturday games.

I subscribe to several CFB podcasts. Greg’s is the one I always listen to because it is all substance with no time wasted on silliness. Greg consistently informs concisely and objectively. He is obviously remains a serious student of the game with a passion for it. It also helps that he has a great delivery.

Been listening for couple years and have to say I dare not place a bet or decide a game without listening to McElroy first. Amazing insight from someone who actually played football and at a high level in big time program. Beware of taking too much advice from someone or podcasts who’s never played a down or put in a helmet.
No one else I trust for the best team and game overview. If your not listening your not getting what you need to either make a bet or know your football.

I’ve been listening to the show for for over 2 years and while I am a very strong big 10 fan, I am a bigger college football fan. I can see how some might feel this show leaning towards the SEC, but I appreciate that they are just talking about the top ranked teams, regardless of conference. I wouldn’t take that as a bias. I appreciate that this show tends to cover a broad range of topics. I like the overall schedule of the program throughout the week, and I appreciate the format. Overall, I find it very professional and enjoyable.
