Athlon U: The College Football Podcast

Are you from VA? In what universe do you think UVA is the lead university in VA? VT is bigger, has more support and has a lopsided W-L record vs UVA going all the way back to when VT was independent, in the Big East and all the way through the ACC era. Yes UVA is an AAU school with a “public Ivy” rep and they are good in Olympic sports but come on man. Yes VT has had a down period since the end of the Beamer era but they are back on the rise. You could say the exact same thing about VT vs UNC. The only reason UVA & UNC are attractive to the B1G or SEC is for their current teams to get an almost guaranteed W, so they don’t all finish 6-6.

Informative and funny. Knowledgeable perspective without mindless banter!!

I’m listening to your most recent episode and I have to stop listening because stating that the committee was not looking at a teams schedule to review teams is ridiculous. Of course they did and do and have always weighed that, otherwise we would’ve have had the debates about 11 and 1 teams versus 9 and 3 teams. Please stop acting as if this a new revelation.

I’m floating in my pool waiting to get to the teams and you guys are talking about Memphis in the ACC, the eight and nine game schedule that the SEC and Big Ten are battling about and we are 20 minutes deep, now you’re talking about Tennessee
