We’re back to preview this long football weekend’s playoff action and discuss the sports news of the week. We’ve also got a brand new recurring feature: it’s CIB’s 2025 National Title Game Battle of the Bands, where we determine the winner of the upcoming national title game based on music from the teams’ cities. Be sure to head to the Substack to cast your vote. Listen, if you must! Has something we said, or failed to say, made you FEEL something? You can tell us all about it by joining the conversation on our Substack or you can send us an email here. Enjoy!
