As the evolution of college football continues to move forward, another voice has been heard from. This one is from the South. Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne has called for the end of the SEC championship game. "I think the ship has sailed," were some of the Alabama AD's words. Andy Staples and Steven Godfrey discuss Byrne's comments and how he is saying what many others have either said or thought. If the end of the conference championship games is in fact near, how would this impact the College Football Playoff? The guys discuss the potential impact and what could be substituted in for conference championship games that the fans would enjoy even more!

Then, we keep it in the South as Andy and Godfrey discuss if there should be concern about the Southeastern Conference. March Madness has officially concluded. Two Big Ten teams won the men's and women's tournaments: Michigan and UCLA respectively. That means it was a clean sweep by the Big Ten with national titles for football, men's basketball and women's basketball. It is the first time in nine years the SEC hasn't won at least one of those titles and the first time in 25 years that they have gone three straight years without a football national championship. Although that may not seem like a huge deal, the weight of this drought feels heavier for a conference that was seen by some as the pinnacle for many years. The guys chat about if the SEC is actually collapsing and how this era should be viewed.

There's no way we make it through an episode without some legislative talk, even with Ross out for the day. On Friday, President Trump issued an executive order addressing various issues in college athletics. Andy and Godfrey discuss how important this order is and if it will lead to any real impact or change in college athletics. Hint: if you have been listening to this show then you probably already know the answer.
