We have reached championship weekend – one of the greatest weekends in sports. It’s crazy how time flies. It feels like only yesterday that I was in Ireland covering Georgia Tech vs. Florida State in the Aer Lingus College Football Classic.
Needless to say, there’s a lot going on both on the field and off of it, from the College Football Playoff rankings to conference championship games to the coaching carousel, there’s no shortage of fun.
Let’s break down the weekend win this week’s edition of Three and Out.

Say it ain’t so, Tom!
During an appearance on The Colin Cowherd Show, Hall of Fame quarterback Tom Brady appeared to come to the defense of Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair, who was suspended three games after a devastating (and by some accounts intentional) forearm-led hit on a sliding Trevor Lawrence. The Jaguars quarterback would end up immediately going into the ‘fencing’ position, signifying a head injury that was later ruled a concussion.
“Defensive players have to be aggressive. That’s their nature.
Are the Miami Dolphins soft? The question boggles because it is basically asking if men who risk their lives, really, on a week-to-week basis playing the most violent of American sports are simply not tough.

The Chargers’ great NFL Draft rookie class has a steal in Tarheeb Still
When the Chargers opened their 2024 season, I figured their defense would be good but still have some shortcomings at corner.
