Andy challenges Chick-fil-A nuggets, Pac-12 returns & Florida-Georgia clash

Andy and Ari Wasserman cover the upcoming college football slate. Great, now that you know that, here's where it gets saucy...well...not really because Andy doesn't use sauce when he tears into over 100 juicy, savory, delicious Chick-fil-A nuggets in this week's payoff pod (:30). The guys set the framework for the challenge before jumping into lines for the Pac-12's opening weekend (9:45). Is USC the conference favorite? What can we expect from the Trojans against Arizona State? Will an Oregon team that's lost key contributors this off-season be able to handle Stanford (14:45)? The duo also discuss the position the conference is in follow the Cal-Washington cancellation (20:30). Ari is amped for Big Ten talk! Who ya got in Michigan-Indiana (26:00)? Will Milton and co. bounce back after last week's stunning loss to Michigan State? Can Indiana keep rolling? Should we expect Ohio State to breeze past Rutgers, or is this not the Scarlet Knights of the past (41:00)? Double-down on Clemson? Can DJ Uiagalelei power the Tigers past ranked Notre Dame (44:15)? Who will be the biggest shrimp at the world's largest cocktail party (49:30), and does Florida's lesser recruiting class, compared to Georgia, already put them at a disadvantage? Plus, Texas-West Virginia, Texas A&M-South Carolina, Tennessee-Arkansas and BYU-Boise State (1:00:30)!
