Intro (0:00-8:09)

Oregon coach Dan Lanning kicks it off by explaining how some sliding doors moments — including taking a job with Kirby Smart before Nick Saban could offer him one — led him to Eugene. Lanning also explains how he uses a clip from a Kevin Costner baseball rom-com (and not the one you’re probably thinking of) to help himself and his players mentally reset when they’re in a big moment. And there will be plenty of big moments Saturday. (8:10-23:54)

Next, Washington coach Kalen DeBoer discusses how winning three NAIA national titles at the University of Sioux Falls (his alma mater) helped prepare him for running the multimillion-dollar corporation that is Washington football. DeBoer also explains how the connection between quarterback Michael Penix Jr. and offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb helps produce all those beautiful passes. (23:55-40:21)

Finally, On3 national writer Jesse Simonton joins to discuss his Midseason All-Transfer Portal Team. That team includes a couple of Ducks as well as some key players in Saturday’s USC-Notre Dame clash. Plus, Andy and Jesse update everyone on how their Quarterback Draft selections are doing. (Spoiler alert: Thanks to LSU’s Jayden Daniels, Andy is killing it.) (40:22-1:05:00)
