    CFP Semis Predictions: Miami vs Ole Miss & Oregon vs Indiana + Transfer Portal Buzz | JACFB Podcast

    The CFP Semifinals are set — and this season’s bracket might be one of the most unpredictable ever. In this episode of Just Another College Football Podcast, we break down both semifinal matchups, highlight key transfer portal news, and offer bold predictions on who will march on to the National Championship. First up: Miami vs. Ole Miss in the Fiesta Bowl. The Hurricanes punched their ticket with a stunning 24-14 upset over Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl, their biggest playoff win in decades. They’ll be installed as a narrow favorite against the Rebels, and both teams are playing their best football late in the year. Miami’s defense and efficient offense have positioned them well, but Ole Miss’s explosive passing attack and gutsy late-season wins make this a true toss-up.  Then we shift to a rematch that could define the season: Oregon vs. Indiana in the Peach Bowl. The Hoosiers already beat the Ducks once during the regular season, and the line now favors Indiana by a field-goal spread. With both squads locked and ready, this one feels like a defensive chess match — and Indiana’s momentum is hard to ignore.  We’ll also dive into late-season transfer portal movements that could impact future CFP contenders — like key Miami players entering the portal after their huge playoff run, and quarterback shakeups that could reshape roster landscapes next season.  Want bold predictions, upset alerts, and our picks for who reaches the title game?

    CFP Quarterfinal Picks: OSU-Miami, Oregon-TTU, Indiana vs Bama & Ole Miss-UGA | JACFB Podcast

    The playoff heat is 🔥. On this special CFP Quarterfinal Prediction Episode of Just Another College Football Podcast, we break down every major matchup, recap what’s already happened in the bowl season, and project who will take the next step toward the national title. Ohio State vs. Miami — In the Cotton Bowl Classic, the Buckeyes’ first quarterfinal showdown is history in the making. Ohio State, with a dominant defense and Heisman-caliber offense, is favored to defeat Miami and move into the CFP semifinals. Miami’s defense has been formidable all season, but protecting their QB and containing Ohio State’s balanced attack will be key.  Texas Tech vs. Oregon (Orange Bowl) — This is arguably the week’s biggest test for both programs. Oregon arrives battle-tested after a convincing win and ranks as a CFP quarterfinal threat. Texas Tech’s defense and explosive timing could flip the narrative, but Oregon’s edge in experience and depth makes this one a thriller prediction.  Indiana vs. Alabama (Rose Bowl) — The Hoosiers sit as the No. 1 seed after an historic season, Big Ten title, and Heisman production, positioning them to upset Alabama in Pasadena and punch their ticket to the semifinals. Indiana’s balance and momentum give them an edge in this legendary bowl setting. Ole Miss vs. Georgia (Sugar Bowl) — A rematch with instant rivalry vibes. Georgia enters in peak form, but Ole Miss’s playmakers and bowl season confidence give them an upset window in New Orleans. We cover the bowl season recap, what these quarterfinals mean for the CFP landscape, and share best bets, angles, and bold picks. Plus, we dive into a major coaching news story — Kyle Whittingham’s hiring at Michigan, which has huge implications for College Football programs’ direction moving forward.  Subscribe on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, or Spotify — this week defines playoff destiny. 🏈🔥

    CFP First Round Picks: Bama Revenge? A&M–Miami Thriller & Tulane/JMU Upset Alerts | JACFB Podcast

    The 2025 College Football Playoff first round is here — and this weekend’s slate is loaded with drama, revenge arcs, and huge upset potential. On this episode of Just Another College Football Podcast, we break down our CFP First Round Predictions, Best Bets, and Game-by-Game Outlooks for every matchup. Alabama vs. Oklahoma — Can the Crimson Tide get revenge after that 23-21 loss in Norman earlier this season? Oklahoma’s defense is elite, holding opponents to under 15 points per game and forcing field-position battles, but Alabama has its starters back healthy and the Tide look primed to flip the script. Many analysts lean on Alabama’s offense to control the game and avoid turnovers — a major factor in their first meeting. Texas A&M vs. Miami — This might be the most evenly matched game of the weekend. Both teams are strong on offense and defense, and Miami’s explosive playmakers could tilt this one if they find space against the Aggies’ physical unit. Expect a tight battle that could come down to momentum swings. Tulane at Ole Miss & James Madison at Oregon — The Group of Five schools enter as underdogs but bring hard-fought seasons and motivation. Tulane’s rematch with Ole Miss has upset juice — especially with recent coaching shifts — and JMU’s first CFP appearance gives them “nothing to lose” energy. We also share best bets, spread plays, and a memorable Joel Klatt quote on how “no one cares about Cinderellas in college football.”  Add bold takes, betting edges, and upset alerts — this episode is your playoff game plan.

We react to the latest Heisman movement, break down who’s trending up, who’s fading, and whether this year’s winner will be decided by stats, moments, or team success. Finally, we close with one of the sport’s most iconic traditions: Army–Navy 🇺🇸.

    CFP Rankings Fallout, Penn St Mess & Early Signing Day Drama | Just Another College Football Podcast

    The final stretch of the 2025 season is ripping into focus — and this week’s episode of Just Another College Football Podcast covers everything: from the latest College Football Playoff rankings fallout to coaching chaos, recruiting drama, and value bets for the weekend. First up: CFP Rankings Reaction — who surged, who got left behind, and what the committee’s latest moves mean for title hopes, at-large bids, and seeding bets. As the playoff bracket tightens, we dissect which teams benefited, which are teetering, and who’s on the outside looking in. Then: the mess at Penn State Nittany Lions. After firing longtime head coach James Franklin mid-season, Penn State still hasn’t landed his replacement — a story that highlights the volatility of the modern coaching carousel. We walk through the available candidates, the reputational risks, and how this could impact recruiting and performance next season. Recruiting season heats up with Early Signing Day around the corner (Dec 3–5, 2025) — a moment that officially locks in commitments, ends chatter, and shapes the 2026 classes. We explain how the new financial-aid agreement system works (post-NLI era) and what programs should watch for on the recruiting wire. Finally: Week 13 Best Bets. With playoff implications, coaching instability, and late-season motivation in the mix — we break down lines, lean picks, and under-the-radar games where value still exists. Whether you bet, bracket, or just track the chaos — this episode sets you up for the weekend.

    Conference Title Picks: Georgia-Bama, OSU-Indiana, Virginia-Duke, Texas Tech-BYU | JACFB Podcast

    The championship weekend is upon us — and it could reshape everything. On this episode of Just Another College Football Podcast, we dive into every major conference title game: from the high-stakes clash between the SEC’s blue bloods to the first-ever Big Ten title shot for a long-awaited challenger. SEC: Georgia vs. Alabama — again. The Bulldogs and Crimson Tide meet in Atlanta, two weeks after Alabama handed Georgia its only loss of the season. Georgia enters as the favorite, riding an 8-game win streak, while Alabama is fighting for playoff positioning and survival. Expect a gritty, physical game — but can Georgia avoid the SEC curse of close losses to Bama? Big Ten: Ohio State vs. Indiana — undefeated vs. undefeated. For the first time in conference history, the Championship Game features a true No. 1 vs. No. 2 matchup. Ohio State brings a dominant defense; Indiana rides a Heisman-worthy QB and balanced offense. Whoever wins could lock up a top seed and possibly a bye in the playoffs. ACC: Virginia vs. Duke — underdog dreams meet surprise success. Virginia earned its spot with a win over Virginia Tech; Duke snagged a title game berth via tiebreakers. Neither are typical ACC contenders — which makes this a wildcard: could a five-loss underdog shock a top-10 team and steal a bid? Big 12: Texas Tech vs. BYU - Don’t sleep on the title game between Texas Tech Red Raiders and BYU Cougars — a rematch full of revenge arcs. A huge one that could very well decide whether or not the Cougars find their way into the CFP.  Finally, we drop upset alerts & sleeper picks: who could steal a title, who’s on upset watch, and which games might flip the playoff field upside down. If you’re betting, bracket-watching, or just love drama — this is your roadmap to championship weekend. 🔥🏈
