About this listen

Football Weather covers the college football landscape from a different perspective. Hosts Matt Blaszka and Galen Clavio explore the key storylines, games, personalities, and structural changes that dominate the college football landscape on a weekly basis. With one host from the northeast and one host from the midwest, we approach college football as the universal American sport that it is, rather than something that just belongs to one specific region of the country.

  • Big 12 & ACC Playoff Contenders + Notre Dame

    Big 12 & ACC Playoff Contenders + Notre Dame
    Aug 11 2025

    Who actually has a path to the College Football Playoff? In this episode of Football Weather, we break down the ACC and Big 12 races—and where Notre Dame fits into the bracket math. We talk résumés, schedule landmines, committee optics, and which teams have real margin for error.

    What we cover:

    • ACC contenders and the at-large calculus

    • Big 12 chaos vs. credibility (and why two-loss teams could linger)

    • Notre Dame’s path: must-win spots and swing games

    • Strength of schedule, November positioning, and “style points”
