Tom and Ryan discuss all the best games of week 13, offering predictions and gambling picks. Because it’s a weak lineup of games (relatively speaking), they also dive into a number of other topics, including poor fan treatment at stadiums, Will Muschamp’s resignation and potential future coaches for Florida, the Buffalo snowstorm, and Heisman predictions. They end this week’s podcast with a breakdown of the non-power five conferences, including picks to win each one.

Dak’s going to pass for 250 and run for another 120 in this game.
