On today's episode of False Start, John Buhler (Lead Writer, FanSided) and Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) made it through their final wave of preseason predictions.

With their powers combined, the guys shared their 12-team College Football Playoff bracket predictions for the upcoming season, as well as what three candidates would be on their Heisman Trophy ballots.

From there, they looked at some of their favorite NFL Draft prospects for 2026, coaches and coordinators who could be looking for bigger jobs next year, all before trying to get some answers on the biggest questions they want answered during the upcoming season.

They then finished the show with some The Less I Know the Better to tie a bow on this summer, as we are full steam ahead to the fall!

Week 0 of the 2025 college football season is here with a ranked matchup between Iowa State and Kansas State from Dublin. The Cyclones got the best of the Wildcats, and Cody Williams is providing instant reactions, including why Matt Campbell is the X-factor for Iowa State making a run in the Big 12, why we shouldn't write off Kansas State in the Big 12 title race with 13 weeks left to go, how to make CFB Week 0 better moving forward, and more.

A tinfoil hat is just a hat you wear at home when nobody else is around.

On today's episode of False Start, John Buhler (Lead Writer, FanSided.com) and Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) unpacked their six packs of college football conspiracy theories heading into the 2025-26 season.

From the SEC, to the Big Ten, to the ACC, to the Big 12, to the Group of Five, and through the College Football Playoff, these guys left no stone unturned to find the truth.

Who does not love a good conspiracy, because this is False Start?!

Five is still technically bigger than four.

On today's episode of False Start, John Buhler (Lead Writer, FanSided.com) and Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) drove it into the ditch with their Group of Five season preview.

While the guys came to a handful of similar conclusions across the AAC, CUSA, MAC, Mountain West and Sun Belt, they are well aware that anything and everything can happen at this level of college football.

Together, they picked who will win each league, who will be making the CFP, and what head coaches are destined for something even better than this?

You've only got 100 years to live, so make the time for some False Start!

Life is about having a big belt buckle!

On today's episode of False Start, John Buhler (Lead Writer, FanSided.com) and Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) sifted through the madness that is the Big 12 way too early in the morning as a part of their conference preview shows.

While the guys really have no idea who is going to come out on top in this ultra-competitive league, they do like the Big 12's chances to get a star player of theirs back to the Heisman Trophy Ceremony.

As far as a handful of coaches are concerned, some of their seats are getting pretty toasty.

Before the guys bounced into a more visible part of their mornings, they celebrated Episode 200 of this show being a thing by remembering some shows!

False Start has evolved over the years, and hopefully, you have, too!

Life is, in fact, a drive-thru line at Cook-Out!

On today's episode of False Start, John Buhler (Lead Writer, FanSided.com) and Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) prove they can, in fact, do more than shoot hoops and turn left as a part of their ACC preview.

The guys look at who could be challenging Clemson for superiority in this league, as well as what Notre Dame plans to do as a fiercely national independent.

In addition to figuring out who can make the playoff, who can get to the Heisman Trophy Ceremony and what head coaches are sitting on the hot seat, the guys finished the program with some dudes, bruh...

If you were anybody in the ACC, you were remembered because this is False Start!

John Buhler (Lead Writer) and Cody Williams (Content Director) navigated something fierce to bring you this episode.

They will tell you who their Definitely, Maybes were, as well as who might be donning the Paul Finch Satin Kimono at the end of the season.

The guys also touched on Big Ten Heisman Trophy contenders, what head coaches in this Power Four league are on the hot seat, and who just might maybe make the expanded 12-team College Football Playoff this season.

Like Wayne Campbell would probably say, this episode is Excellent! because this is False Start!
