Josh Pate's College Football Show

Late Kick Live Ep. 267 features Josh Pate looking ahead to some of the biggest potential upset alert spots on the 2022 College Football calendar. Who do you think could be in the biggest trouble as a favorite this fall? Next up Josh discusses Sam Pittman’s new contract extension with Arkansas and how the structure of the deal should be a blueprint moving forward for every other major program. Could this be the key in avoiding athletic departments getting stuck paying massive buyouts? Speaking of coaches, could it be that Brian Kelly’s move to LSU and Marcus Freeman’s rise to the head coaching position at Notre Dame would work out well for everyone involved? The bold predictions segment returns for another evening of the most out-on-a-limb proclamations Pate State can muster including Auburn winning 9 games this season, the SEC not being viewed as the best conference in 2022, Iowa repeating as Big Ten west champs, Clemson winning the national title, and the AAC having 3 undefeated teams entering the final week of October. Josh also dives into the Late Kick mailbag for another spicy Q&A segment including a look at which non-SEC conference title winner from last season is most likely to repeat this year.
