This pod is really helpful when you can’t watch every game. It tells you want has happened. It is so helpful and entertaining. Thank you so much Dan and Ty! I love listening to this when I’m trying to go to sleep and when I’m getting stressed with everything that is happening! So thank you! This pod has gotten me through some rough times (loneliness, stress) to name a few. I LOVE THIS PODCAST! ❤️ and I am also sad that Florida lost but it is fine. So thank you Dan and Ty!😁😁😁 Ps. GO FLORIDA GATORS!! 🐊 🐊 Thank you, 🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪Cookie!🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪

Dan and Ty have emerged as one of the top College football shows to keep you locked in during the season. This show stays in my rotation year round and I’m thankful for their contribution to the sport.

I genuinely don’t understand how this show hasn’t been scooped up by someone huge. The content, the quality, and the CFB community these guys have built up seems like the gold standard that a lot of people could learn from. Been listening for a couple years now and it continues to get better each season.

MikeThompson23 · Sep 2026

A little quirky. A lot of CFB knowledge. Super fun. The content is great, but Ty and Dan’s personalities and their back and forth banter are what make this the best CFB podcast out there. Give it a listen. You won’t be disappointed. Update (many years later): Still quirky. Still knowledgeable. Still fun. Still the best CFB content out there. If you aren’t listening, you’re missing out.

jennandspence · Sep 2026

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.
