The position rankings series kicks off with the most important position in college football — the quarterback.

Jake and William each reveal their independent top 10 signal callers heading into the 2026 season, and the lists could not be more different. The debate comes down to a fundamental question: do you rank the quarterback alone, or do you rank the quarterback plus everything around him?

Spoiler: they do not agree.

Who lands at No. 1? Who gets left off entirely? And which QB has one of them ranked in the top 5 while the other has him sitting at 9?

Listen and find out.

Who are the true blue bloods in college football… and can that status actually change?

We dive into one of the biggest debates in the sport:

• What defines a blue blood?
• Can programs lose that status?
• Can new teams break into the club?

We didn’t all agree… and that’s where it got interesting.

Jake, William, and Austin each built a team of the most electric players in college football history. One QB. Two RBs. Two WRs. One TE. One Flex. Snake draft. No mercy.

Heisman winners. Record breakers. Highlight reel legends. Every pick on every board earned its spot.

Who built the best team? You're going to have to listen to find out.

We drafted the greatest rivalries in college football history — and it got heated fast.Jake, William, and the Southern Rivals crew each built a team of 5 rivalries in a snake draft pulled from a pool of over 100 games. From the Iron Bowl to the Big Dog Trophy, nothing was off limits.Watch the full draft, hear every pick defended, and then tell us in the comments — who built the best team?🗳 Cast your vote below

Ryan from Inside the Pylon joins us for a fun exercise as we draft the biggest “What If” moments in college football history. From Nick Saban leaving the Miami Dolphins to WVU vs Pitt in 2007, Tebow potentially committing to Alabama, the Bush Push, and more, we build teams of the moments that could have completely changed the trajectory of the sport. Which moments would have had the biggest impact on college football history?

Justin jumps in with Jake and Will for a loaded episode of Keep 3 Cut 5.

First up, the guys tackle all-time Running Backs and Quarterbacks. Adrian Peterson. Reggie Bush. Cam Newton. Tim Tebow. Johnny Manziel. Vince Young. And more.

Only three can stay. Five get cut.

Some of these decisions are controversial.

Then things shift to the 301 Touchdown Challenge. Think darts 501, but college football style. Start at 301 and subtract touchdown totals. Closest to zero wins.

Strategy matters. One bad pick can ruin your board.

Who made the worst cut?

Who dominated 301?

Who completely mismanaged the math?

Play along and see how your board stacks up.

College football is changing fast — and now schools are paying their way into the future.

This week we break down North Dakota State joining the Mountain West and Sacramento State’s massive financial commitment to enter the MAC. Are these smart long-term investments, or risky gambles for relevance?

We also discuss the Big Ten’s reported 24-team College Football Playoff proposal, the potential elimination of conference championship games, and what that could mean for the sport.

Plus, we react to the Trinidad Chambliss eligibility ruling at Ole Miss and what it says about courts stepping into NCAA governance.

Is this evolution… or is college football losing its structure?

Jake puts Will in the hot seat with Keep 3, Cut 5 – College Football Edition.

Three categories. Eight elite players in each. Only three can stay.

They start with Running Backs from the CFP era, then move to Wide Receivers, and finish with Quarterbacks. Heisman winners. National champions. All-time great seasons.

Some of these cuts are brutal.

Did Will disrespect a legend?
Did he overvalue peak over résumé?
Were the QB decisions flat-out wrong?

Play along as you listen and decide your own Keep 3 for:
• RBs
• WRs
• QBs
