After a crazy weekend of epic comebacks and high drama, we enter the first major rivalry weekend of the season. That’s perfect podcast material.
For Virginia fans, this means renewing its oldest rivalry with the hated Tar Heels. However, this Saturday also has major implications for conference races and the College Football Playoff – that includes the game between Duke and Florida State as the Seminoles try to position themselves in the hunt.
In this episode of The Preferred Walk-Ons Podcast …
- A brief history of “The South’s Oldest Rivalry” (0:00-6:56)
- The biggest storylines from Week 7 of college football, including an instant classic in Seattle, USC’s disastrous trip to South Bend, and another offense-less (offensive?) win for Iowa (6:56-29:07)
- Growing angst among NC State fans after a deflating loss to Duke (29:07-38:59)
- Storylines and best bets for every ACC game in Week 8 (38:59-56:10)
- Predictions for the biggest national games, including Penn St.-Ohio St., Tennessee-Alabama, and Utah-USC (56:10-1:13:52)
TheSabre.com presents The Preferred Walk-Ons Podcast, a college sports podcast through the lens of the ACC. Michael McGraw, a University of Virginia graduate and fan, and Michael Shutt, a life-long NC State fan, both grew up watching the ACC and have insights on the history and present of the conference … plus plenty of healthy ABC – (Anybody But Carolina) bias.
