Episode Details

BYU’s shocking shake-up in the athletic department raises questions—could this power shift disrupt their Big 12 football momentum? Predictions fly as wild preseason picks place Texas Tech atop the league, BYU in contention, and speculation swirls over a potential coaching change at TCU.

Drake Toll and Cam Stuart break down why trusted analysts have West Virginia rising, Cincinnati and TCU tumbling, and whether Arizona or UCF might surprise. The pair dissect Kalani Sitake’s public resource frustrations, Brian Santiago losing football oversight, and how BYU’s unprecedented move borders on experiment. Plus, a scathing look at TCU’s rocky opener, Jaden Craig’s struggles, and why missing a bowl game might be the new reality in Fort Worth. Can bold leadership moves and player shakeups re-ignite Big 12 contenders before it’s too late?
