And it wouldn't be a college football episode without a college football player's opinion so Domini...

Benchwarmers! In true FeOTB fashion we had a minor malfunction while recording this episode. Zoom only picked up about half the audio which means that though you get a taste of Jim on the show, but JDash will have to make a triumphant return further down the line.

What's up Benchwarmers!?
