Episodes
The Saturday Sensei's are back after a short break after the flurry of Bowl season, the CFP playoffs, and all-star games. We are back to talk about the 2025 NFL Combine. Who excelled? Who showed out? And who showed up but didn't put out...talk is cheap in our view.
That is a wrap on the inaugural 12-team playoff season and the first season of the Saturday Sense crew coming at you! What a ride it was folks. We thoroughly enjoyed the weekly routine and loved the excitement and unpredictability of the regular season. The playoff lived up to its billing, other than the 2nd Quarterfinal games, with the two best teams in the playoff facing off for the Natty. Thanks to everyone who tagged along ...
That concludes week 21 of the inaugural season of Saturday Sensei and we have crowned our first 12-team playoff champion as the Ohio State Buckeyes handle their business against Notre Dame. We wrap up the season, talk all-star/senior bowls, and cast an eye toward the NFL combine and draft ahead. Thank you to all that have tuned in for one week or all twenty-one. We appreciate each and everyone of you.
Well, we are here folks! The final game of the 2024-2025 college football season. And, wow, what a season it was. We have two teams who each had one terrible loss in their respective regular seasons. The Irish lost to the Huskies of NIU in week 2 and they were left for dead. Overrated! Frauds! You name it, the Irish were labeled as such. And at the completely other end of the season, the Buckeyes stepped on their own rake as ...
Well, we are here folks. The Final Four of the college football playoff has arrived. And we have four "blue blood" programs in the Semifinals: Penn State, Ohio State, Texas, and Notre Dame. We break down the Quarterfinals and pick the Semifinal games. The Sensei's postulate on what an expanded college football playoff bracket could look like. A 32-team playoff is doable and would solve a couple chronic issues for the sport: m...
Well, the first round of the CFP 12-team playoffs may have lacked competitiveness on the field, but it did not disappoint in terms of energy, electricity, and excitement with the home field playoff atmosphere. Some of the best environments we have seen all year. Tune in this week for the recap of first round games, listen to the inaugural Saturday Sensei season award presentations, and hear our picks for the Quarterfinal matchups...
Off the heels of an awesome game last Saturday in Landover, MD where the Midshipmen absolutely pounded the Black Knights in America's game, we are screaming into the first FBS College Football Playoff. The excitement starts Friday here in Indiana with the "State Championship" at stake as the Hoosiers take on the Irish up in South Bend. Cold, snowy, and obnoxious will Notre Dame stadium be as Coach Cig and his Hoosiers look to thaw ...
Well, Championship weekend provided continued excitement and some incredible games. Simply a microcosm of the entire season. We saw a few blowouts by underdogs, a few dominating performances by favorites, and two last possession wins in power 4 conference title games.
When is the last time the final week of the regular season had so many significant playoff implications? When is the last time the last week of the season determined the playoff fate of a half dozen teams? And when was the last time there was a game that went into 8 overtimes and ended up being the longest game in SEC history??? What a fantastic way to finish off one of the best college football seasons in history.
The final regular season episode is a doozy folks. Our longest of the season and rightfully so after one heck of a week in college football. Seven of the Top 20 teams losing this past Saturday setting up the final week of the season to be a barn burner. Conference realignment has brought about one of the best college football seasons in history. And now we are just days away from the final week where at least a half dozen games...
Heading into week 13, we are down to three undefeated teams left with BYU being taken down by Rock Chalk, Jayhawk! Oregon escaped a near upset in Camp Randall while Indiana and Army were on a bye week. The playoff picture continues to change weekly as top teams continue to find a loss or a loss finds them. Making for one of the most exciting seasons we have witnessed in decades.
Another fantastic week of college football folks. Milroe runs wild in Death Valley, Jeanty keeps his Heisman hopes alive and well with another dominant performance, and Travis Hunter stays relevant with a strong performance in Lubbock. We compare our "expert" picks for the final CFP bracket to the committee's first look at the brackets as they stand today. Finally, we get to another exciting slate of games for Week 12.
Wow!!! What a week in college football. Six ranked teams go down with only one losing to a ranked opponent. 5 of the 6 "Goliath's" get taken down by the proverbial "David's". We had some incredible offensive performances last week from the Running Rebels offense led by Jaxson Dart to the Dragons at UAB under Jalen Kitna's leadership and, a real doozy this week, the Univ. of West Georgia's absolute annihilation of the Lincoln Un...
Back again for another electric week of college football. Week 9 saw some high flying action from the AAC with two unbelievable comebacks by Memphis and Tulsa. Meanwhile we also had some pretty UGLY and FUGLY performances by ranked teams and unranked teams alike. The most exciting component of the show today is the Sensei's reveal the first look at their first twelve into the CFP!!!
Barreling into Week 9 like our boy Jeanty is going to be rolling into the Downtown NYAC in December! Another great show for all of our sensei's and senpai's out there. Kirby and the boys got that "dawg" in them down in Austin as the Georgia defense absolutely dismantled the Longhorns on Sat night. We talk potential coach of the year candidates with a number of great turnaround stories. Finally we get to week 9 picks with a coup...
Another thrilling week in college football. Two service academies in the Top 25??? Nearly 100 points and 1100 total combined yards put up by Purdue and Illinois in an OT thriller. On the flip side, Rutgers held to 175 yards in total offense by Wisconsin, and Vandy is the real deal folks! We talk Heisman with only one guy to catch at the moment: My guy Ashton Jeanty! We broke this story in week 2 after he demolished the Ducks D...
Week 6 did not disappoint...Victorious in Vandy; Craziness in Little Rock; and Mayhem in Monroe!!! What a weekend in college football.

Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper.
