False Start - College Football Podcast

Reach out to Cody and Buhler to tell them what's up!

Indiana may have thrown a wrench in everything, but Texas is messing everything up!
With the return of John Buhler (Staff Writer, FanSided.com), Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) was not entirely ready with what was about to come down the pipeline.
While Buhler did not have the stones to keep Texas out of the College Football Playoff picture like his hero Andy Staples of On3 did, the guys did wonder about if Texas really does belong in the 12-team playoff. They are 9-1, but who have they beaten?
It all comes down to the Texas A&M game in two weeks, but the guys still had plenty to talk about on a Monday.
From AP Top 25 reactions, to new 12-team playoff brackets, to putting more dudes on the hot seat, False Start was chaotic on a Monday as you could have ever hoped for.

Last podcast for the year, so they had to make it count.
John Buhler (Staff Writer, FanSided.com) and Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) were back at it with another edition of False Start on a Monday.
With the College Football Playoff's four national quarterfinals being underway around the holiday, the guys made their predictions as to who will be advancing to the semifinals.
Also, Iowa State showed them something in the Pop-Tarts Bowl vs. Miami.
Plus, has Dabo Swinney really gotten with the times to embrace the transfer portal for once?
Be sure to make False Start part of your New Year's plans and your resolution to get smarter and dumber in consuming college football at the same time!

Would Steve Sarkisian really mess with Texas?
As John Buhler (Staff Writer, FanSided.com) and Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) got ready for the upcoming College Football Playoff semifinals, rumors started to circulate that Sarkisian would draw interest from NFL teams.
We saw the NFL briefly court Marcus Freeman, but to no avail.
Sarkisian leaving for the NFL would not only re-open the head-coaching carousel, but would put Texas between a rock and a hard place in 2025.
Also, Georgia was able to land Zachariah and Zion Branch in the transfer portal.
Just when you thought the college football season was about to wind down, False Start has more steam than a locomotive coming down the track, brother!

What a day, what a day, what a day!
Week 12 of the 2024 college football season was wilder than we expected. While Georgia held serve at home to beat rival Tennessee to keep its playoff dreams alive, BYU suffered its first loss of the season to a much-improved Kansas team.
With LSU losing to Florida, Scott Stricklin looks smart for keeping Billy Napier around, while we have to wonder how hot is Brian Kelly's seat getting.
Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) flew solo like a cup for Three Yards and a Cloud of Punt for False Start, while John Buhler (Staff Writer, FanSided.com) was out celebrating the Arizona State podcast's big day.
False Start is getting better and better every week, just like football season, baby!

What up, Beck?!
Yes, former Georgia quarterback Carson Beck has removed himself from the 2025 NFL Draft so that he can transfer to Miami to be with his girlfriend.
John Buhler (Staff Writer, FanSided.com) obviously had some thoughts about this, but he only had The Starters to share them with, as Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) fought off something fierce.
Buhler then touched on the latest in the Life of Brian Ferentz, Texas' bright future (we think...), and Marcus Freeman absolutely being in his bag at Notre Dame.
Win or lose, rain or shine, False Start will be with you until the end of time!
