Episode Notes

An excerpt of The College Basketball Experience (@TCEonSGPN) on the Sports Gambling Podcast Network. Colby Dant (@TheColbyD), Ryan McIntyre (@Moneyline_Mac) and Noah Bieniek (@NoahB77_) banter about the College Football Playoff action from Saturday and the fallout online afterwards.

In this episode, Colby is out due to migraines, so Mac and Bieniek step in to discuss Saturday's College Football Playoff games. The duo dives into Miami's 10-3 victory over Texas A&M, highlighting Texas A&M's atmosphere and Miami's coaching decisions.

The discussion then moves to Tulane vs. Ole Miss, noting Ole Miss's dominance and Tulane's missed opportunities. They also analyze James Madison's performance against Oregon, emphasizing JMU's strong second-half. The hosts critique the media's narrative around G5 teams and argue for keeping the format at 12 teams or expanding the College Football Playoff format further to ensure competitive balance. They close by underscoring the importance of G5 teams' participation in the playoffs for the overall health and parity of college football.
