Week 9 CFB Tasting Menu: Vanderbilt Dynasty

Alex and Richard preview Week 9 of the college football season. Among the many games previewed on this episode are:

* Not one but TWO major FCS games: No. 1 NDSU at No. 2 SDSU, plus Montana at Sacramento State in a game that’s become narratively dramatic

* Kansas State at Kansas: Is this finally the Jayhawks’ time?

* Ole Miss at Oklahoma: Why are we so worried for Ole Miss?

* USF at Memphis: Someone from this game will probably play for the American conference championship. Who?

* Auburn at Arkansas: You can sort of feel how this is going to go, right?

* BYU at Iowa State: A good chance for another unbeaten to fall

* Minnesota at Iowa: Somehow, this has playoff stakes on both sides

* Illinois at Washington: Uh, same

* Texas at Mississippi State: An appealing Dad Water Home Dog of the Week spot for the Bulldogs against a decaying Longhorn team

* Wisconsin at Oregon: A look at the three different genres of “votes of confidence” that embattled head coaches got this week

* THE MAIN COURSE, presented by Modelo: Host emeritus Steven Godfrey joins us to talk about Vanderbilt’s rise to GameDay-hosting prominence ahead of a major home game against Missouri

That is but a sampling of what is on this Tasting Menu.
