I just listened to this show for the first time and it’s very well done. Chris and Damien are both very knowledgeable and not afraid to drop criticisms without sounding like they’re desperately seeking attention like so many others in sports media today. Definitely a new follower and probably this is probably my go to show for CFB now.

Used to be a good show with Ari. Lazy analysis, and unfortunately hosts lack personality. Love The Athletic but this show is a miss

This has gotten so bad the last few years. Used to be good when it was the A.S.S. Even was fine with Ari. Now it’s just three dudes who all think they’re the smartest person in the room, who all have terrible opinions and even worse chemistry. Can’t even tell what the content is half the time cuz it’s one person or the other just talking over everyone else.

Calling the FWAA freshman defensive player of the year “that freshman from Notre Dame,” while confidently announcing it is impossible to cover OSU in man when ND did so last year and held Harrison to less than 45 yards shows how little you bother to study beyond the surface level of OSU star power. OSU is better and will probably win, but try to put a little effort into your analysis.

More stars if it was more David and Chris. Less Damien please.

Too much SEC glazing. I’m out.

Obviously, Ari and Manny have a anti-Alabama bias, and their analyzation is absolutely ridiculous. Or they just hate Deboer. I just started listening and I’m about to cut bait because they are nonsensical. Plus their voices are so whiny.

Please please put Damien on a SEC/Bama podcast he detracts from a national show

It’s unfortunate this show has fallen off as bad as fsu in 2024 once Ari left the show. All other shows on the Athletic network are high-quality and have real intriguing dialogue, now it’s just cringe-worthy whining from a few unpolished and biased podcasters. Recommend looking elsewhere for college football coverage.

It’s like listening to unhinged message finebaulm callers
