Andrew, David, and the gang waste no time delving into the outrageously chaotic landscape that is the final stretch of the season, where David sets the tone by wrestling with the Commonwealth Cup, excitedly acknowledging the show's intro and jokingly revealing his current digestive state.The episode kicks off with a whimsical word breakdown from Andrew—"Con" and “Dense”—flowing into an unplanned analysis of “confidence.” As the conversation seamlessly pivots to football, the guys reflect on the recent games and hand out Game Balls with particular praise for Jamari Taylor's remarkable performance leading Virginia during the Commonwealth Clash and Cal's JKS for derailing SMU’s championship dreams with an epic showing that secured a winning season for the Golden Bears.Fueled by robust banter amidst their analysis, the team takes time to reaffirm the notion of “Coastal Chaos,” sharing anecdotes about the ACC’s unpredictable nature and how every team seems to suffer from this madness. David introduces a riveting debate on the Offensive and Defensive Players of the Year, with the spotlight shining on Taylor and the standout statistics of Clemson's Ricardo Jones, establishing a compelling case for each selection.

Tension fills the air as they analyze each team’s potential paths to victory, weighing both strengths and weaknesses while discussing Darian Mensah's performance against Virginia’s defense, which had previously kept him in check. They challenge each other on key matchups, revealing the brewing pressure on the Cavaliers to perform—a stark contrast to Duke, who seem to be the wild cards of the match-up.In an amusing twist, Jared includes a “number of the week” segment, highlighting his unfortunate betting futility at almost $1,200 lost—a new record and a comedic reminder of the ups and downs of college football fandom.

🔥 ACC Showdown: Franklin Hired, UVA Climbs, and ACC Title Scenarios! 🔥The Virtual Tailgate crew dives into a wild week of ACC football! After a humorous (and awkward) discussion about public restrooms, the guys get serious about the gridiron.Andrew kicks off the "Game Balls" by praising the entire Virginia defense after their dominant performance against Duke, which was responsible for a 34-7 win. David counters by spotlighting UVA tailback Jamari Taylor, who had 133 yards and two touchdowns , and leads the ACC in rushing yards (over 900) and touchdowns (13). Jarred gives his game ball to Georgia Tech's Haynes King for putting the offense on his back with 423 total yards in their narrow 36-34 victory over Boston College. Finally, Geoff awards a special teams ball to Clemson kicker Nolan Hower for his perfect night, which was critical in the upset win over Louisville.The crew reacts to the news that Virginia Tech has hired former Penn State coach James Franklin as their new leader for 2026. David calls it a "home run hire" , while Andrew calls it "ludicrous crap". This leads into the ACC Power Rankings, where the Virginia Cavaliers jump to number one for the first timeFinally, the hosts break down the week's biggest matchups:Pitt vs. Georgia Tech: David predicts a high-scoring game and encourages listeners to "Take the over". Georgia Tech controls their own destiny for the ACC title game , and Jarred believes the home field advantage will help them cover the spread.Louisville vs. SMU: The guys are split on this one. Jarred and David pick the Mustangs due to Louisville's recent sloppy play and "culture problem". Geoff and Andrew lean toward the Cardinals, with Geoff citing SMU's "abysmal" secondary as the difference.Duke vs. North Carolina: Everyone predicts a Duke victory, with David suggesting the Tar Heels are "just kind of waiting for this season to end". This opens a debate on whether Bill Belichick should return to the NFL after his disastrous college season.Miami vs. Virginia Tech: Despite the great coach hire, Jarred believes the Hokies are "checked out" for the year. Andrew and David, however, think the Hurricanes are prone to being sloppy in cold weather , and the Hokies will keep the 15.5-point spread close as players audition for James Franklin's resurgent program.Plus, the hosts place their quickfire bets for the remaining ACC games!00:00 – Intro & Geoff’s Manifesto on Public Restroom Confidence03:30 – Game Balls: UVA Defense & Jamari Taylor05:57 – Game Balls: Haynes King & Nolan Hower08:22 – Breaking News: Virginia Tech Hires James Franklin12:04 – Power Rankings: The Cavaliers take the #1 Spot17:30 – The Betting Audit (Red Ink Everywhere)19:14 – Preview: Georgia Tech vs. Pitt25:00 – Preview: Louisville vs. SMU30:54 – Preview: Duke vs. UNC (The Belichick Experiment Fails)39:35 – Preview: Miami vs. Virginia Tech45:45 – Quickfire Bets & Sign-off Hosted on Acast.

Season 15 - Week 9: Matador Defense and a Malcontent Host

The Virtual Tailgate crew returns for a midseason "defensive spectacular," though the theme quickly causes chaos. The hosts award their Game Balls, with Andrew celebrating the Stanford defense for shutting down FSU (an upset he correctly predicted) , Jarred highlighting Louisville's critical turnovers against Miami , and Geoff praising Cal's game-saving forced fumble at the goal line versus UNC. David, however, goes completely off-script, annoyed by the defensive constraint and sarcastically awarding his ball to the Virginia D-line, which he claims played "matador defense" against Washington State.Jarred then runs down the ACC Power Rankings, prefaced by his "deep thought" on the conference. Georgia Tech and Virginia hold the top spots, while Miami tumbles after their loss and Boston College remains cemented in the cellar after an embarrassing loss to UConn.David attempts to skip the weekly pick 'em recap , still salty about Andrew's continued dominance. Andrew reveals his big win came from a $200 bet on Stanford to beat FSU outright.

Season 15 - Week 2: Jarred & the Spreadsheet of Lies

In the latest episode of Season 15 of the Virtual Tailgate, hosts Andrew and David, along with their crew, delve into the thrilling realm of college football, particularly focusing on the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) as the season unfolds. They kick off the episode with a playful jab at David, who admits to being "unprepared," setting a lighthearted tone for the discussion. A key segment features the "60-style Player of the Week," sponsored by Tacoma Work Boots, where Andrew lauds Tommy Castellanos of Florida State for leading his team to a stunning upset over No. 8 Alabama, despite some initial skepticism about his comments earlier in the season. Castellanos posted commendable stats with 152 yards passing and 78 yards rushing, earning not only a game ball but a t-shirt from the show's hosts as a nod to his bold statements.The conversation shifts focus to Haynes King, the senior quarterback of Georgia Tech, who showcased a remarkable performance with 140 passing yards and a staggering 156 rushing yards against Colorado. His exceptional dual-threat capability puts him in good company, being the first quarterback since Jalen Hurts in 2019 to achieve such numbers in a season opener. Amid car jokes about Christmas gifts involving Castellanos' quote, the team also shines a spotlight on Cam Ross from UVA, who had a monster game with 224 all-purpose yards and stands out as a critical player for the Cavaliers this season.As the hosts pivot to their Power Rankings, they engage in an entertaining debate about the positioning of teams following impactful Week 1 performances. Miami earns the coveted No. 1 spot after defeating Notre Dame, and they deliberate over whether Alabama is overrated this year. The rankings also reflect the ups and downs of various teams, including a drop for Clemson after a tough loss. They dive deep into the upcoming games, generating heated discussions, particularly about the Virginia Tech versus Vanderbilt matchup. Jared, a proud Hokie alumni, expresses skepticism about Tech’s offensive capabilities after their recent loss, igniting discussions about quarterback Kyron Drones' performance.The team continues down the line, focusing on the notable game between Baylor and SMU, where they discuss the implications for both squads as they aim to solidify their positions in the new conference landscape. The hosts also analyze the tightly-contested game of Duke against Illinois, with Andrew and Jeff making a compelling case for Duke to pull off an upset, despite the odds being slightly against them.Quick-fire bets wrap up the episode, where David advocates for a must-win scenario for UNC against Charlotte, while Jared makes a bold pick for BYU to easily handle Stanford, punctuating the show with their distinct blend of humor and football insight. As they wrap up, the team leaves listeners with memorable advice on life and football, ensuring that the laughter continues even off the field.Chapters0:07 Welcome to the Virtual Tailgate0:22 Player of the Week Highlights4:10 Power Rankings Discussion6:23 Season Standings Update9:13 Hokies vs. Commodores Preview14:29 Virginia Tech's Quarterback Debate16:49 Baylor vs. SMU Matchup20:56 Duke vs. Illinois Showdown27:49 Quick-Fire Bets Roundup31:22 Closing Thoughts Hosted on Acast.

Season 15 - Week 1: Chapel Bill's Debut & The Through

The Virtual Tailgate crew kicks off Week 1 of the college football season by handing out their lone game ball to a Hawaii kicker who allegedly learned his craft from YouTube videos. Judge Jarred delivers a poignant ruling on proper bathroom trough etiquette , and the guys deliver their first ACC Power Rankings of the year, with a special message from The Rock for the cellar dwellers.The hosts then dive into a slate of fantastic opening weekend games. Andrew and Jarred offer some very lukewarm picks for Virginia Tech in their "Beamer Bowl" matchup against South Carolina. The crew discusses the debut of "Chapel Bill" Belichick at North Carolina and the surrounding off-the-field drama. In a surprising turn, most of the hosts back a downtrodden Florida State to keep it close against Alabama. They follow that by predicting an early-season win for Miami over Notre Dame, with the caveat that "Miami will suck eventually". Finally, the boys are split on the marquee "Battle for Death Valley" between LSU and Clemson, debating whether Dabo Swinney's reluctance to embrace the transfer portal will cost the Tigers. The show wraps with a round of quickfire bets, including a very confident pick for Georgia Tech over Colorado and a truly terrible joke from Geoff.00:00:00 - Intro00:01:12 - Game Balls: The YouTube Kicker00:03:05 - Judge Jarred: Bathroom Bonding00:04:33 - ACC Power Rankings00:05:16 - Preview: Virginia Tech vs. South Carolina00:12:07 - Preview: UNC vs. TCU00:19:12 - Preview: Alabama vs. Florida State00:28:20 - Preview: Notre Dame vs. Miami00:34:54 - Preview: Clemson vs. LSU00:45:31 - Quickfire Bets00:49:23 - Outro Hosted on Acast.

This is the week, dear listeners, where we truly fail you. We let a sleep deprived Jarred take over and turn the show into a nearly 2-hour bout of inanity. But it's actually kind of fun. Sorry for the low quality, too, but it's hard to fit in 2 hours on a budget that expects 1 hour/week.Music: Whatever Jarred used, Price Is Right I believe.There is no Plinko, sadly. Hosted on Acast.

ACC Week 10: November 3, 2012

Jarred reveals the big secret of our recording night by talking about the election, but the inane facts might just be a ruse.We ramble for a while, and the intro music is Hootie because Jarred mocked them in the pre-show, so I'm making him listen to them on here now.Music: Hootie and the Blowfish Hosted on Acast.

ACC Week 7: October 13, 2012

Jarred is MIA, and Andrew took forever to get the show up (though you won't here about that in the show).

ACC Week 3: September 15, 2012

I'll just say it here, this thing came off the rails well before the recorded parts you will hear. I've got another whole podcast in that recording about 80s TV and what shows were for "girls" versus "guys"I promise we get to some football, but there are a lot of newly-minted inside jokes there too.Game of the Week: Jarred copped out - the rest of us try to go with UNC-Louisville.Lots of Notre Dame talk and empty ACC stadiums.You'll probably laugh if you listen, even though it will mostly be at our expense.
