📝 Show Description
Host Anthony Smith is In The Zone to break down a chaotic Week 12 that redefined the College Football Playoff picture and exposed the financial stakes of the modern game.
This week's CFB Blitz episode dives into:
* CFP Chaos: Oklahoma's Brent Venables proves he has the blueprint for beating Alabama, handing the Tide a devastating loss and shining an uncomfortable spotlight on their running game. Plus, why Georgia is a virtual CFP lock and why we can officially end the Texas hype.
* The $45 Million Question: We analyze the stunning decision by Maryland to retain Coach Michael Locksley, focusing on the cold, hard economics. The move avoids a $13 million buyout and an estimated $32.7 million in losses, redirecting a nine-figure sum toward NIL and fiscal stability—a look at the new calculus of coaching.
* The Tunnel Controversy: A deep dive into the shocking viral video from the Texas A&M/South Carolina game where a Texas LEO deliberately bumped a player. We discuss the "eye-sore" incident and the need for professionalism around the game.
* Heisman Hype: Highlighting the week's most unique performance: Texas Tech linebacker Jacob Rodriguez, the two-way terror who demands an invite to New York.
This is the ultimate breakdown of the chaos, the cash, and the controversies from the CFB gridiron.
