The Shirts & Skins Podcast

Boise State beats Nevada 24–3, but the guys debate whether it was a “good win” or just… a win. We hit fan comments, CFP payout realities, College GameDay bias, the AD vs. fans dust-up, and why QB play is the ceiling right now. Defense gets its flowers (Warren/Earby/McCoy), the Mountain West gets side-eyed, and we preview Fresno State. Plus: a ridiculous highlights reel (Canadian rouge! Kentucky pinball fumble! Vandy Hail Mary inches short!) and a quick recruiting worry. Chapters below.
