  • Ohio State OUTCLASSES Indiana; Florida SHOCKS Ole Miss in The Swamp, knocking the Rebels out of the College Football Playoff
    Nov 23 2024

    You’ve had Wendy’s Nuggs dipped in sauce. But have you had them covered in sauce? Wendy’s New Saucy Nuggs take the Crispy and Spicy Nuggs you love and turn them up to 11. Choose between flavors like Buffalo. Honey BBQ. Garlic Parm. Or, if you’re a real heat seeker, try Spicy Ghost Pepper, only on Wendy’s signature Spicy Nuggs.

    (0:00-10:38) Indiana at Ohio State
    (10:39-20:45) Ole Miss at Florida

    Andy and Ari react live to Ohio State's win against Indiana. The Buckeyes are a win against Michigan away from making the Big Ten title game. The Hoosiers, meanwhile, will be judged for the College Football Playoff against teams with much tougher schedules. Did they way Indiana lost change the selection committee's opinion of the Hoosiers?

    Florida stunned Ole Miss in The Swamp on Saturday, effectively eliminating the Rebels from the College Football Playoff and opening a precious at-large spot. Andy and Ari try to make sense of what happens now.

    (1:01:28-1:06:49) Conclusion; Dear Andy tomorrow! Andystapleson3@gmail.com

    It’s a Wednesday’s saucy take Wednesday, and you’ll have to decide whether Andy, Ari or River has the sauciest take.

    But first, there is news…

    Ohio State center Seth McLaughlin injured his achilles tendon Tuesday at practice. This is devastating news, because McLaughlin had been the anchor of the Buckeyes’ line after transferring this offseason from Alabama. How will the injury affect Ohio State against Indiana on Saturday?

    Also, Oregon is heading to the Big Ten title game. The league announced that on Tuesday afternoon because apparently no one bothered to check after Saturday’s games whether the Ducks had clinched.

    Speaking of Indiana, Ari wants to know if fans without a team on the bubble really want Indiana in the College Football Playoff. Or would they rather have Tennessee, Texas A&M or another SEC school?

    Plus, the CFP selection committee released its ranking Tuesday night, and Boise State is in a position to get a bye while the Big 12 champ is potentially headed for the No. 12 seed.

    Now it’s time for saucy takes…

    Ari thinks conference expansion has messed up everyone’s schedule…

    Producer River thinks Arizona State is winning the Big 12…

    Andy says Nebraska IS getting bowl eligible on Saturday.

    Ralph Russo of The Athletic joins Andy and Ari to preview tonight’s College Football Playoff ranking release.

    Plus, Lane Kiffin says coaches want to skip the SEC championship game. Are they wrong, or would a team risk missing the College Football Playoff if it lost? And if a team did miss the CFP because of losing the SEC title game, how quickly would SEC commissioner Greg Sankey try to change the CFP format?

    Later, Andy and Ari try to match potential coordinators with teams looking for new coordinators.
