A Dolphin Juggernaut: NFL's Best? Colorado Quacked By Ducks. Ohio St. Miracle At ND. Astros & Mariners Shrink As AL Wild Card Up For Grabs. Another Winter I Can Sleep In Peace. RIP 2023 Yankees
It's another sports podcast party as I close out the month of September with the first of two action packed shows that'll whet the casual and diehard sports fan alike. On deck:
(2:56) Are the Miami Dolphins a team that we need to take seriously? To the point that after three weeks, are they the NFL's best? I know it's way to early to dive into, but after their 70 point, 723 yards of explosive offense, we can argue that they are #1. I'll have my usual winners (i.e. Cardinals, Browns) and losers (i.e. Commanders, Vikings and Jaguars) and go through all of the games of Week 3 including the Packers comeback vs. New Orleans, another brutal Jet loss to the Patriots, among others.
(33:32) A very intriguing college football Saturday this past week as we saw Deion Sanders's Colorado Buffaloes not belong on the same field with the Oregon Ducks. I have a thing or two to say about Ducks coach Dan Lanning in regards to his postgame comments, but Deion's squad has another big matchup this week as USC comes into their building. Florida State hung on at Clemson to win a tough road game. Same for Ohio State as it came down to the wire at South Bend to defeat Notre Dame in the final seconds, 17-14. Alabama withstood a sluggish first half to beat Ole Miss at home. Utah won a defensive battle against UCLA in their building. Washington State outlasted Oregon State behind an enormous game from QB Cam Ward. And Penn State took care of Iowa at Happy Valley in a loaded schedule that saw a little shift in the top ten when it comes to the rankings as we head into October.
(45:46) What has happened to the Astros and Mariners down the stretch? Both teams got swept over the weekend, which'll lead into their epic showdown for the first of three games tonight in Seattle as they battle it out for the final wild card spot in the AL. It's tough to figure who'll come out on top based on their recent play. I'll also dissect the NL Wild Card as we're down to the final week of the MLB regular season. Oh! Who would've thought I'd utter this sentence before October? Another winter that I can sleep in peace. The New York Yankees have been eliminated from postseason contention. I'll actually have a vlog on this in the coming days, which you can watch (and subscribe) to my YouTube channel linked below.
