They kick things off by discussing their “Players of the Week,” with Andrew celebrating Duke’s Anderson Castle for his three-touchdown game, Jared highlighting Miami’s Reuben Bane Jr. for his defensive prowess—complete with a quirky impression—and Geoff raving about Trell Harris from Virginia, whose first-half heroics left a mark against Stanford.

As the power rankings are revealed, the top four stay steady with Miami, Georgia Tech, Florida State, and Louisville, while Duke climbs to tie for fifth. The conversation takes a light-hearted detour into the futures of notable coaches like Dabo Swinney and Mike Gundy, combining laughter with analysis.
