The Slumpbuster Ep 108: College Football Alliances, Heisman Favorites & Opening Week w/ Chris Caulk

It's once again time to Bust the Slump and enjoy another episode of the Slumpbuster podcast! Joining us this week, former USC wide receiver Chris Caulk. Ju-Ju & Chris on this episode discuss some of the biggest stories in college football for 2021.

We kickoff the show by talking about Chris' time at USC. How did players view the shortened season in 2020 caused by the COVID-19 pandemic? Has the Pac-12's lack of commitment to football cost them in recruiting some of the best athletes in their geography? USC finished 5-1 last season with their only loss being in the Pac-12 Championship game. Can the Trojans with Heisman contender Kedon Slovis under center become a top football power again? Additionally the Pac-12, ACC and Big-10 announced an alliance. What does an alliance even mean? #Pac12 #USC

College football has a very opening week in store as many old school powers collide. Miami, currently ranked fourteenth, will square off with the Alabama Crimson Tide. Can quarterback D'Eriq King put the Hurricanes in a position to upset the defending champions? Texas and new head coach Steve Sarkisian will welcome the Louisiana Ragin Cajuns into Austin this weekend. Can start begin his tenure with the Longhorns with a Top-25 win? Clemson may have lost Trevor Lawrence but they are still a heavy title contender. They begin with a huge test, opposing SEC power Georgia. Who will win the QB battle between J.T. Daniels and D.J. Uiagalelei? #CollegeFootball

The Heisman promises to be a very competitive race in 2021. Last season was the first time in almost six seasons a non-quarterback has won the award. Currently Oklahoma QB Spencer Rattle is the odds makers favorite. Will Daniels, Uiagalelei or even Slovis challenge Lincoln Riley's quarterback for the famous trophy come seasons end?
