Really enjoy the podcast, have been listening for years. It’s apparent Bruce and Stew have well thought out opinions on current CFB topics instead of “hot takes”. Keep up the great work!

Common sense college football talk with excellent insight. Bruce and Stewart are extremely knowledgeable and give great perspectives and I enjoy the back and forth.

Clvlanddr · Oct 2023

Stew and Bruce are knowledgable and entertaining without getting into the contrived arguments that have ruined so much sports talk. To me, and this will date me, they harken back to the Sports Reporters on ESPN, which I loved as a kid. If you want college football talk without yelling and pretense, check ‘em out. They’re a regular in my pod world.

Love Bruce, but his inability to recognize any criticism of Deion Sanders seems like a weird conflict of interest situation. I hope he succeeds as well cause I believe it would lead to more teams bringing in African American former players, but it’s been undeniably a mess on and off the field in Boulder, and protecting him like this only makes it harder on others.

SMD205 · Aug 2024

I’m pretty forgiving about the energy even though most shows sound like both hosts just woke up from naps, but if podcasting is an important enough part of their jobs that they commit time each week to do it then why does it sound like a recorded phone call. If you don’t care to iron that out why should I care to listen?
