About this listen

On this episode of Throw Up Tackle, THE! Mario Washington, The DOK, and LJ go all the way in on the chaos of the College Football Playoff. The crew lights up Notre Dame for opting out of its bowl, questions how an independent program with no real signature wins thought it had a case, and breaks down why Miami belonged in the field before the Irish ever did. From ACC tiebreaker madness and a five-loss Duke in the title game, to SEC bias, TV-driven narratives, and conferences that no longer make geographic sense, they debate what a real national championship system should look like—expanded playoffs, capped conference sizes, real commissioners, and revenue sharing that actually fixes the sport.

Then they pivot to the NFL and it gets even wilder. The guys react to the Indianapolis Colts dragging Philip Rivers out of retirement and wonder how a Hall of Fame clock gets reset for a QB who hasn’t played in five years. They hit on Sheduer Sanders’ development and future, why the Chiefs look cooked, how violent and legit the Texans defense is under DeMeco Ryans, and what’s gone wrong with Jalen Hurts and the Eagles. As always, they close with their weekly picks, more jokes at Cowboys fans’ expense, and a healthy dose of controlled chaos—classic Throw Up Tackle.
