It's been quite a week. Since our last episode, Oregon and Washington joined the Big 10, Arizona, Arizona St., and Utah joined the Big 12, and the music stopped on Oregon St., Washington St., Cal, and Stanford with no dance partners remaining - at least it seems. Seth welcomes Nate, Nick, Steeg, and Vito to discuss what happens to the Pac 12 now? How did we get here? What is the future of college football? Plus, the fells reminisce on their favorite Pac 12 moments. Maybe now we can actually talk about the football on the field!

Nate also has an OCS #HOTTAKE in the fallout of conference realignment.

It is finally August and as teams begin fall camp around the country new Head Coach Alex Golesh pitches an interesting method for his inaugural fall practices. Plus, Nate and Seth discuss USF Media Day, the first week of fall camp, and what they expect from the team preparing for the opening game against Western Kentucky.
