    Reach out to Cody and Buhler to tell them what's up!

    What's the point in all this screaming? No one's listening anyway...

    On today's episode of False Start, John Buhler (Lead Writer, FanSided) and Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) gave it their all on a most fantabulous Week 7 preview.

    While there may have been some connectivity issues, the guys prevailed to share their thoughts on Notre Dame-BYU, Ohio State-Indiana, Missouri-Ole Miss, Oklahoma State-Houston, and so much more.

    And of course, Just Like Novocaine prominently featured one of Cody's favorite bands in the Goo Goo Dolls.

    Buhler believes they are the 90s version of The Replacements, and he is not wrong!

    When everything's meant to be broken, we just want you to know who we are.

    This is False Start!

    Reach out to Cody and Buhler to tell them what's up!

    It is hard to move forward when there is so much to look back on...

    On today's episode of False Start, John Buhler (Lead Writer, FanSided) and Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) were back at it to give their extended thoughts on the Week 6 slate.

    They unpacked a little more on Red River and Alabama-Georgia before diving into teams the Associated Press got wrong with their latest poll.

    After that, the guys took a good, hard look at who could be getting ready to don the Satin Kimono, as well as honoring Karl Bushby's walk by remembering the 1998 college football season.

    One foot in front of the other, because this is False Start!

    Reach out to Cody and Buhler to tell them what's up!

    What a week it was!

    On today's episode of False Start, John Buhler (Lead Writer, FanSided) and Cody Williams (Content Director, FanSided.com) went Three Yards and a Cloud of Punt to recap an eventful Week 6 slate.

    Georgia, Oklahoma, and UCLA all won big games over Alabama, Texas, and Oregon respectively, while other teams are still trying to sort out their seasons.

    Missouri might be great, but how do we evaluate teams like Florida, Iowa, and Tennessee?

    It is always a great time when you False Start!
