Ty & Dan are both funny and knowledgeable. They keep things fresh throughout the season, I really enjoy listening!

Fun combo of personalities with good football chatter without losing the humor and joy of the sport. Great job guys, appreciate the content and the laughs.
@THE_SPORTS_DOC · Oct 2024
Cinemax, Peter North, Growers not Showers, Dan and Ty constantly entertain with subtle reference and the best nicknames in all of sports media. They keep it light hearted but it’s obvious they do the work, actually watch the games, and are fans of college football. Can’t recommend this pod enough.
JunkyardDawgsOnTop · Oct 2024
It’s hard to know everything about every college team and these guys bring it with as little bias as I’ve found among analysts, including their own alma maters. They love great matchups, like most of us. Honestly surprised anybody in this space can have a rating this high given that rabid fanatics will always scream “bias!” when their own team doesn’t receive constant praise.
KevinLA · Oct 2024
This show was in my regular rotation for a long time. It was never really my favorite pod, but it was good enough that I listened to every new episode when they dropped. I'd say top 3-4 for a long time.
I finally removed it from my rotation and it's been a long time coming. Dan has become insufferable with his comments and how he rates teams. It's so obvious who his favorites are and who he doesn't like and it permeates and overshadows most of the commentary on the show. If you're a team he likes and do bad, he'll search so hard for a silver lining. If you're a team he dislikes and you win well, he won't give you any credit and will explain how that win actually isn't impressive. It's mind numbing. If you're looking for any sort of objective CFB analysis. There is 0 objectivity from him.
I love Ty. He does a good job of looking at things more objectively and being much less biased when discussing how various teams performed. The issue? Dan will constantly interject into Ty's commentary with his asinine comments to explain to Ty why X team is actually really good or really bad. Completely removing all nuance from the discussion.
It's finally annoyed me enough that I've stopped listening after about 5 years of listening to every pod put out.
If you care about actual insightful discussion of the top teams in college football, go somewhere else. If you want silly humor and to hear about Dan's select favorite college football teams, then this is the pod for you.
