South Dakota head football coach Matt Vitzthum has built his career on a simple philosophy: Be where your feet are, embrace your role, and make the most of the opportunity in front of you. From his Division III playing days at Wartburg College to 11 seasons at Grand Valley State…
One of the best college football Saturdays of the season is here. Ohio State heads to Bloomington for a showdown with Indiana, Notre Dame faces a dangerous trip to BYU, and Alabama and Tennessee renew the Third Saturday in October rivalry. Seth and James are breaking down a loaded slate…
Before charter buses, Idaho State and Weber State students rode trains between Ogden, Utah, and Pocatello, Idaho, for their annual football game. The tradition gave us one of the great forgotten trophies in college football: an 86-pound locomotive bell that sat dormant for more than 50 years before returning in…
JMU’s move to the American could set off a chain reaction that reaches all the way to Stephenville, Texas. Tarleton State has made no secret of its FBS ambitions. Could Conference USA be its next stop? #CollegeFootball #TarletonState #ConferenceRealignment
One of college football’s most unusual rivalry trophies belongs to Idaho and Montana. The Little Brown Stein has been part of this FCS rivalry since 1938, and its origin story is pure college football. #CollegeFootball #FCSFootball #IdahoVandals #MontanaGrizzlies #Shorts
College football is bigger than the places College GameDay goes. Thursday night took us to Williams Stadium in Lynchburg, Virginia, for Liberty University’s Midweek on the Mountain. From field-level pregame access to the Flames’ entrance and touchdown fireworks, here’s a look inside a Thursday night on the Mountain. The pageantry…
In 1951, Washington and Lee played Wyoming in the Gator Bowl. Today, the Generals play Division III football at Wilson Field in Lexington, Virginia. From legendary fullback Eddie Cameron—the namesake of Duke’s Cameron Indoor Stadium—to Navy head coach Brian Newberry, this little stadium has an extraordinary place in college football…
Georgia and Alabama have helped define an era of college football. Now the Dawgs head to Tuscaloosa for another heavyweight collision. Can Georgia contain Keelon Russell? #GeorgiaFootball #AlabamaFootball #SEC #CollegeFootball
The Gators were one of the hottest teams in college football. Then they went to Columbia — and Mizzou reminded everyone just how dangerous the Tigers can be. #Mizzou #FloridaGators #SECFootball
Alabama walked into Starkville and made a statement. Mississippi State and Kamario Taylor had been one of college football’s best stories through the first month of the season, but Keelon Russell and the Crimson Tide reminded everybody just how dangerous Alabama can be. Seth Saunders is joined by George Somerville…
Aiden Flora’s road to Iowa State stardom started just down the road in Adel, Iowa. The former high school quarterback walked on with the Cyclones, earned his opportunity through special teams, eventually received a scholarship—and now he’s Iowa State’s starting running back. Against West Virginia, Flora exploded for 212 rushing…
You can have the 100,000-seat cathedrals. Give me the Kibbie Dome. Idaho’s iconic stadium wasn’t originally covered, isn’t technically a dome, and eventually received a roof built with more than one million board feet of lumber and 32 massive timber trusses. The result? One of the most unique stadiums in…
Is a 24-team College Football Playoff inevitable? Seth and James open this week’s Preferred Walk-On Show with the growing push toward CFP expansion and why the bigger issue isn’t necessarily 24 teams. It’s whether college football actually has a coherent plan for getting there. They break down automatic bids, the…
The College Football Playoff could expand again. But expand to what? College football has no shortage of proposals for the future of the CFP — more teams, automatic bids, conference guarantees and different formats. What it still seems to lack is consensus on what the playoff should ultimately become. The…

Dante Moore goes down against USC. Dylan Raiola gets the call—and looks completely comfortable taking control of the Oregon offense on the road. Calm. Collected. Ready for the moment. James makes the case that Raiola’s performance in the Ducks’ big road win was the story of the week in college…
Wallace Wade won three national championships at Alabama before leaving the Crimson Tide for Duke, where he transformed the Blue Devils into a national football power. His 1938 “Iron Dukes” went the entire regular season without allowing a point. But Wade’s remarkable story went far beyond football: during World War…
🏀 One of college basketball’s great cathedrals may have started with two football coaches and the back of a matchbook. Long before the Cameron Crazies and Coach K, Eddie Cameron was pulling double duty at Duke — coaching basketball while serving on Wallace Wade’s football staff. Then, in 1935, according…
UMass went 0-12 last season. Then QB Pop Watson told Minutemen fans, “This ain’t the same team y’all saw last year.” Four games into 2026, UMass is 4-0 for the first time since 2007. The Massachusetts native came home—and now he’s helping author one of college football’s best early-season stories.…
