The Muschamp is dead, long live the Muschamp! Florida and Big Willy Style are finally parting ways; in a few weeks anyway. In the meantime, CA and Luke rattle off his likely successors and settle on their respective frontrunners. And no, it's not Mark Hudspeth.

Then the boys venture into the Week 12 recap. Arizona State-as-national-contender, we hardly knew ye. It's like two shows for the price of one. And that one is free!

One playoff candidate bites the dust, and another reinforces its case. But Ole Miss and Oregon weren't the only ones making an impression on the committee this weekend, as Florida State narrowly escaped Louisville, TCU upended West Virginia, and Florida inexplicably upset Georgia.

All those games and more in the Week 10 recap, along with a wildly accurate forecast of the committee's new top 6.

As always seems to be the case, what appeared on paper to be a less than stellar day of college football this past Saturday turned into non-stop must-see action, and even a marquee upset to confuse the national landscape.

Recap all the Week 9 action with the boys, who also present their current College Football Playoff selections.

Another weekend in the books, and, despite their only being one true marquee match-up, it was a wild one!

Recap Week 8 with the boys, from that FSU-Notre Dame thriller, to the Oregon-Washington blow-out, and West Virginia and Kansas State's upsets. And that's just scratching the surface. Yes, for some reason they even put themselves through a Florida-Mizzou retrospective, game that set offenses back six decades.

And how about that pumpkin festival?!

Did TCU melt down, or did Baylor accomplish an historic comeback? What does Mississippi State's win tell us about Auburn? What about Ole Miss's over A&M, or Oregon's over UCLA? And what in the world is Canadian Thanksgiving?

Answers to all these questions and more, with The College Football Podcast's Week 7 recap.

Oh the humanity. Another weekend is in the books, and few were the teams that emerged unscathed.

The state of Mississippi may be the epicenter of the college football universe, but the upsets and must-sees were everywhere, from Utah over UCLA, to TCU upending Oklahoma and, yes, even the endlessly entertaining, defense-averse, record-setting WSU-Cal game. 

Reminisce over the season's best Saturday with the boys and their Week 6 recap.

Week 5 may have been known more for near-upsets (Tennessee, Arkansas) than teams actually pulling off the shockers (Mizzou), but it was still endlessly exciting. Unless you're a Wyoming fan, I suppose.

In the latest recap, the boys look back over the highlights -- especially some of the reverberations through the SEC -- including Kansas severely upgrading its coaching situation.

Now that was a weekend of match-ups, right? A solid Week 4 slate on paper turned into an even better one on the field, with nail-biting close games from the country's top teams -- Oregon and Florida State, and even Bama and Oklahoma to a degree -- and a marquee upset, thanks to Mississippi State.

So how does one make sense of all the bloodshed? Why, with The College Football Podcast Week 4 recap, of course.

Expected to be one of the lighter weeks of the year, match-up-wise, Week 3 turned into the Saturday of upsets . . . two of them, anyway.

Today, the boys go over those monumental wins by Boston College and ECU, as well as the rest of the schedule's big contests. Because one can't talk enough about that Cy-Hawk Trophy.

College football's second week in the books, and the season already has its signature playoff-impacting win, Oregon having knocked off Michigan State in a battle of top 10 teams.

In celebration, the boys recap the week that was, from that Oregon-Michigan State clash of the titans to the week's big upsets -- Va Tech over Ohio State, USC over Stanford -- and everything in between.

Plus, quick takes on the week's big news: Penn State's sanctions being forgiven, Steve Sarkisian's pappy talking to the refs on his behalf, and June Jones retiring.

College football occurred last weekend. Just take a minute to let that sink in. Sure, there was the occasional Washington-Hawaii stinker, or a Baylor-SMU blowout. But there was plenty of must-see TV as well: A&M dusting South Carolina, Georgia making a statement against Clemson, and plenty more.

To celebrate, Canada and Luke recap Week 1 action with the finest set of kneejerk reactions this side of Bristol, Connecticut.
