In the recap show we get a bit of Griz history of losing some games they probably should not in the early season.  On to big game recaps for week 6, then the AGS Poll as per usual.  This time we get a wonderful debate on poll voting philosophy and how they vary from voter to voter.

The state of FCS starts a discussion on some potential moves due to recent PAC 12 and how it might affect the MWC and the top of FCS on the left hand side of the map of the USA.  After that, getting into some upcoming games for the Week 6 schedule of events. Top games from the top conferences each get a look. Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!): https://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/funk-you License code: ICDH8PZM9XGZXXUW

After a week off Lance & Kris get back on the horse and review our week 5 games.  Kris got a new audio set up, bet you notice it.  The fellers have a good debate back and forth over scheduling with both making strong points. I checked their likability rating on my instant poll debate calculator and both are still underwater.  On the rise though, so well done.

Kris is consistent in that he gets this episode number wrong too, but 2K and the LB Dog go back and forth with some good interconference games again for the upcoming week 4 events. Music from #Uppbeat https://uppbeat.io/t/sound-made-shape/hooligan License code: LWEZIUCGMSDSDDBN

Great FCS interconference games make up the excitement for 2K and the LB Dog this week.  Seems like all the top conferences are doing a good job of having some contenders meet up early in the season lately.

Lance & the Luddite roll through Week 2 with some reviews of FBS upsets and recaps of good FCS matchups.  Lance rants about some poll imperfections he recognizes early in the season.  It's not a bonus, it's a feature.

Kris got in his wayback machine again and said we are previewing week 1 in this show, it is actually week 2.  Rowan and Hannah are up for the extra credit this week in LB dogs teaching style.  Discussion and previews of some top games this coming week. 2K's is living up to his nickname in that he had two big strikes to take the flubbed it up crown this week.

Final show of the year for us and Lance and Kris go over a lot of stats, recaps of the games leading to the ultimate in FCS competition every year.  Here is to the Jackrabbits and Grizzlies for surviving a gauntlet to reach  this game!

Kris and Lance preview the two games left and as always I get to listen to it first and really want to thank them for their terrific content.  Can Montana, a former standard bear..er take out a resurgent NDSU Bison team?  Can upstart Albany take out the current standard bearer SDSU Jackrabbits? NY became a state in 1788, ND, SD, & MT jumped into the line in 1889.  The age old battle of youth vs. experience. We all think we are the Lion.

Review of round 3, good recap of games.  Kris gets in a time machine and jumps back two episodes but for the rest of us this is 280 for all intents and purposes.

Show starts with a good discussion on NIL, transfer portal, and Congress playing a role in the near future and then we move quickly into the r exciting matchups for this coming weekend.  Every round is win or else but man the weight gets heavier with every round and here we are, about to get down to the real nitty-gritty.

The recap from Lance and Kris on the round 2 games in this episode.  A good discussion again on some Selection Committee pairings and the possible lack of choices they had this year.  On behalf of the producer, I am sad to see Delaware moving on from FCS and this was their last playoff game.  I have no smack for my Delaware friends.  You are OG's and losing the Blue Hens is a big loss in my opinion.

Kris and Lance go over the games upcoming, they do a great breakdown as always.  For me though the part touched on by Kris that allowed Lance to go back and partially explain the Delaware loss in the 1993 playoffs.  I remember the names of too many characters from Delaware because of that game.  Wing T, Tubby Raymond, Daryl Brown...in other words, I have always had massive  respect for that program. Clifton McDowell and the cavalcade of beef up front this season are Thorough, or more appropriately - Thoro. Montana's defense will make the Delaware Destroyers look like children.  They are beyond - Good. Up with Montana boys, down with the foe!

Kris and Lance work their way through round 1 of the FCS playoffs and review and comment on the games from last weekend.  Lance crawled out of his death bed to put some work in for the people.

Kris and Time go over the upcoming 1st round games for this Saturday's games.  The committee had a lot of tough choices with the size of this year's bubble but we look to have a lot of good, interesting matchups to watch on the first weekend.

Lance is out the week due to running a little hot on the forehead so Kris is joined by Tim Plesuk who is a master at archiving the AGS Poll and giving great breakdowns on games, stats, and general performance to reach the FCS Playoffs.Lucky to have him fill in this week, thank you Tim. Week 12 games, AGS Poll, and Selection Sunday all reviewed in this show.

273 –  2023-1116 - WK11 PREVIEW

Kris and Lance have a back and forth over some games from the past week and throw in a pinch of playoff implications with the results.  SDSU is the clear leader.  Who else could challenge them in the playoffs? We need one more week to set the field and at this point there is a big pool of mediocrity that the committee will have to choose from.  Other teams are manifesting their fate, or seeing dreams  slipping away for the 2023 season.
