PODCAST AIN’T PLAYED NOBODY: Week 5 is everything wrong with college football scheduling

You know how we sometimes have those weeks where every good college football game is on at the same time? Week 5 might be the worst example of this that we’ve ever seen.

How many games can you DVR at once? You might find out on Saturday evening!

First, we review your Week 5 tasting menu, which is basically as follows:

  • Thursday/Friday: mostly garbage
  • Saturday early shift: mostly garbage and WVU-Texas Tech
  • Saturday afternoon: all garbage
  • Saturday evening: EVERY POSSIBLE GOOD GAME IMAGINABLE

Then, we move on to this week’s interview with UNLV head coach Tony Sanchez. Topics:

  • The grind of trying to build a steady winner where one hasn’t previously existed
  • Standing out in a city like Las Vegas
  • The impact of the Raiders coming to town
  • The power of having a really, really fun quarterback
  • The benefits and drawbacks to moving from high school coaching to college
