Reece Davis takes on gambling and the fact only 2 people can coach Kentucky have me done with anything he is involved in.

This platform has allowed Fran Brown to share his “dream” path and it’s absolutely inspiring(!), uplifting(!)…and deserving to be heard. Mr.Brown, you deserve all the greatness coming your way.

A friend recommended this pod to me this year and I love it. Content- solid Host- great Guests & staff- Top Shelf Thank you.

Another amazing year with entire crew and new additions. People jump on Disney and ESPN. But Rece, Pete and everyone else involved on this podcast has been terrific. Thank you for making College Football just a little bit better each year.

Why just why

Disney stock is plummeting, and so is the integrity of the gameday product.

These guys are complete politicians. They say the most mealy mouth stuff, trying to act like they see things from on high that the fans don’t see/understand. They flip flop constantly and back up on previous positions. Reese and Pete love to banter back and forth about issues without ever sticking their flag in the ground and taking a solid position. As crazy as fans can be sometimes, at least they take a position. The hosts love to say things like “not complaining, just observing.” This is the equivalent of “no disrespect meant”…well, just stand by to be disrespected with whatever comes next. Of course you’re complaining…just not like a normal person who takes a position without such a ridiculous caveat! Reese has gotten terrible about this politician stuff, that’s why I’ve heard him jokingly called “Senator Davis.” He’s so afraid of being labeled as an Alabama homer that he goes completely out of his way to not compliment Alabama, even when it’s reasonable they should be. He seemingly leaves that up to the other hosts (mostly Steve). Then when he’s totally wrong about how their season is going to go (“they’re a year away” and “right now they look like a top-12 type team instead of a top two [said in the context of discussing the Saban ‘dynasty’ ending]), he won’t come on and just say, “I’m wrong and misjudged them. They’re still one of the best teams in the country.” Again, instead of saying he was wrong, he’ll caveat his position with, “well, they’ve just grown over the year.” Not, “I was wrong,” just “I was right then, and I can explain how I’m also right now.”

As a college football fan of no particular team, I am very sad about what ESPN has done to this sport. The more they talk about the CFP, the more my feelings are validated.

They always flip flop opinions every few days. What a terrible podcast. The SEC can buy so much better than these dudes. 1 star

They receive stances from the big man and push it onto everyone. It’s bad for the game

Shame shame shame..They create narratives and force their employees to go along with them to maximize profit and ruin college football. Don't listen to these corrupt people!!!

Daily.

Money talks and it’s ruined this network

They create narratives and force their employees to go along with them to maximize profit and ruin college football. Don’t listen to these corrupt people.

Fluff show with no real substance. Hard pass

ESPN has ruined college football

This show used to be awesome. Now its just espn cronies who take marching orders and spew it to the world.

Used to love this show, until I realized what Reese and Herby did to leave FSU out of the invitational. What a shame.

Trash show that has opinions paid for by the SEC, corrupt show should be shut down

His football opinions and knowledge have severely dropped off. He only likes talking about the big teams. He works for ESPN and ESPN tells him what to say. He’s a mouthpiece for them. It’s a shame because he WAS a great analyst but now he’s awful. Don’t listen to him.

Absolutely criminal what these goons did to young men with the CFP narrative. All for money.

A bunch of hacks and mouth pieces for corporate overlords at Disney.

Owned

Just a big steaming hunk of crap

They created narratives for weeks that ruined the integrity of college football.

ESPN owns the SEC, ACC, The College Football Committee, and now owns Gambling businesses. They have turned college football into a reality tv show, when it used to be determined on the field and between the hashes.

It’s disgusting to listen to clowns bemoan academics in the world of college football while working for the very company that destroyed the PAC 12. Like all corporate journalists, would they say the opposite for a paycheck? These punks? I believe they would advocate for whatever you paid them for. I hope AI replaces them all. At least then the corruption will be honest.UPDATE—- does anyone watch Game Day? Does anyone care the decisions they make? Self satisfied trash merchants.

Last year, I posted a review saying this podcast was 4/5 stars and the transition cow sound was holding it back. Pete even shouted me out on the pod! Well, the change has been altered this year and I now believe this is a 5/5 star podcast! In all seriousness, I do enjoy this podcast multiple times weekly. It does challenge my thoughts about the CFP landscape, even when I don't want to change my thought process. Rece, Pete, Steve, Bill, Ryan, and Taylor all do great work. I hope this review makes y'all laugh. Keep up the awesome work!

It amazes me that Reece and team can produce this podcast multiple times per week in addition to getting ready for the Saturday broadcast and other things. Their vast knowledge and passion for college football make this a delightful listen multiple times per week.

This duo work so well together. Wish that this was the crew full time on this podcast. I’d listen every time. Thamel is okay but he’s been so wrong on realignment and doesn’t get called on it. He has the, “I’m the smartest guy in the room vibe.” Very off putting.

Thamel is boring. Davis is good but I enjoyed the pod more when they had a variety of hosts/reporters on here.

I typically use ESPN for all my updated college football stats and opinions but this podcast has very narrow minded ideology that I don’t think is what the podcast describes as it’s content. Sad to say I won’t recommend any of my fellow sport podcaster to tune into.

The knowledge of this podcast is unmatched. I love how the host brings the past and mixes is with the present in such a fluid way. Great job fellas and I’m thankful I found this bad boy! Will be listening often. MIZ!

Hook ‘em horns Love the Texas

I get it Alabama is a great team but every time when somebody says something negative about Alabama Pete interrupted. That’s what makes the show bad

It used to be a great podcast when we had the college football writers from each region (Adam Rittenberg-Heather Dinach-Ryan McGee). Now it’s the “look at me” and how great I am Rece Davis podcast. I can’t listen anymore with how much he talks over his co-hosts or anyone who has a negative thing to say about Alabama. So many other great college football podcasts out there, don’t waste your time on this one. Also, let Stanford Steve have another college football podcast ( so much more knowledgeable than anyone on this current one).

This show could be great if they replaced Pete. Guys just really boring and offers no unique insight

Thank you College Gameday for a great and entertaining podcast that helps me get through my afternoon walks! I loved the interview with Kirby Smart and all of the behind the scenes info on College Gameday. I would also love to hear from Herbie some if he is available.

Really enjoy the actual pre season football talk that is NOT realignment. Getting into the actual players and teams that will impact this years season has been fantastic.

He actually channeled his inner Beano Cook in the podcasts great job for those who actually got the reference

Great show going to recommend to my wife , she will love it

Not everyone that likes college football, also likes college basketball. Please keep the sports separated on different podcasts. I don’t care to hear basketball talk.

Great podcast on college football. The off season ones are as fantastic as the in season ones. An off the wall topic that isn’t likely to ever happen but interesting fodder for discussing. If (not likely) the MAC would consider a move move to FCS, would that help FCS and MAC teams.

Excellent podcast ! You three Reces Davis and Pete Thanel .you three make your pick Week 12 picks in the race for ribeye and dicuss who are you should you World Cup Pool The Netherlands are Chzk-esque tranion defense . A relatively concier firgure-out the Big Ten West UConn excessding projection , tenison and penttines with Iowa-Minnesota, the lack of defensive advantage in USC-UCLA and the beleaguered Houston Cougars.

I enjoy the podcast but please tell Pete Thamel the word is dynamism not DY-MA-NISM

Definitely a must listen during the College Football season. I always learn something.

I find it somewhat amusing that you keep prattling on about Michigan’s fairly soft non conference schedule, which does include a bowl team, and yet no mention of Alabama playing Austin Peay the week before the Iron Bowl. Keep pushing that narrative boys!

Great content. Just wish Pete would trim the word volume by like 30%. Every answer he gives is like 90 seconds longer than it needs to be

Who is this Pete guy and his annoying voice

Pete talked about UConn and didn’t mention New England United. Come on Pete!!
